The Land of Stories 2 : Book Tour 2013

        

  


  


 
Meeting Chris: We were outside waiting and when they called up to numbers 160 we went in. There was only a small line because they called in about 20 people at a time. We got in line and were told no phones or cameras beyond that point, hence why I didn’t get any pictures. When it was my turn the lady beside him took my book and opened it for him to sign and he said to me “Hi! How are you?" And I said “Hi. I know you said no gifts, but these are for you." And he said “Thank you." Then I said “Would you please sign this? I met Darren and if you didn’t sign this it wouldn’t be complete." And he said “Sure! I’ll sign it." And he did and I said “Darren signed as Blaine so could you sign the top as Kurt? Like ‘Kurt says hi’ or ‘Kurt loves you’ or something?" And he said “I’ll write hi!" So he did and then I said “thank you." And moved out for my mom and he asks me “Did I sign your book?" And I said “Yeah you did, thank you." And he said “Okay." And he asked my mom “Hi, how are you?" and she said “good" and my mom went to grab her book and it wouldn’t come off the table and Chris said something like “Yeah, there’s a weird lip in the table." And he started feeling the table. And then we walked away and I stared at him the whole time and I walked out the door and started crying. Hope I didn’t forget anything. Also I was shaking really badly the entire time since I first walked in to like, 10 minutes afterwards.

Meeting Chris Colfer!

Today I got the amazing opportunity to meet Chris Colfer at his signing at Northvale! Everything was so surreal, he is absolutely flawless. 
Here’s how the conversation basically went…

Chris: Hi!
Me: Hi Chris! I just wanted to tell you that I think you’re amazing and you inspire me so much and just thank you for everything you do!
(I was literally shaking so much, he had finished signing my book and was looking up at me and oh my god his eyes)
Chris: Aww thank you so much honey! I hope you like the book!
Me: Thank you!!!
And I walked away crying.
Today was perfect. I will never, ever forget it. He is honestly so genuine and precious. He was so sweet and made me feel like the only person in the world for those short 15 seconds. I’ve been on Cloud 9 all day! Hopefully I’ll get to see him again soon, and to all of the fans who haven’t had their chance yet, don’t lose hope! I know you’ll get to meet him someday![/font][/color]

I am loving these fan accounts.  


  MET CHRISTOPHER PAUL COLFER TODAY. I MADE HIM LAUGH AND HE WISHED ME WELL FOR MY PhD. 

^Lol, Brian would make a face like that.
(Honestly: who would do such a thing to their cat?)

When I look at those videos of Chris leaving buildings and such, I can't imagine how that must feel for Chris: all those fans screaming at him, the paps with their flashlights, the cops and security and restriction gates, and people from his team rushing him to the car. 

Wow, that must be so overwhelming, and if it were me I'd be so anxious that I would accidentally do something stupid or something that people won't like and blame me for (like trip, or bump into people, or ignore fans because I'm in a rush and then getting scolded for it).

Everyone is somehow pulling at him (physically and mentally).
No wonder so many celebrities buy homes far away from busy 'celebrity-spotting' places like Hollywood and New York.

I figure all this attention is okay for a few days, like now, when Chris is doing a deliberate promotion tour for his book, and being the centre of attention is sort of the plan.
But I bet he will also be glad to quietly sit in his home on the couch again, with Brian on his lap (and Chris trying to get that fugly unicorn on him, lol).

So I met Chris Colfer today

Me: HI! I don't know if you know ChrisColferNews...?

Chris: Sorry?

Me: ChrisColferNews?

Chris: OH. Haha, I swear you guys know more about me before I do!

Me: Haha! We just wanted to thank you for being amazing and tell you that you are a lot more beautiful than the pictures that we post!

Chris: Awww, thank you so much.

Mr. Hellboy: Awwww! (yeah that actually happened)

Me: (to Mr. Hellboy) Hey, you're really good at your job! (don't judge, I was freaking out)

Me: (I turned around to Alla) Thanks for being amazing, Alla!

Alla: Aww, thank you!

Yes! Someone (thank you!)put the midnight event q&a on youtube:

The Highlight of My Brief Conversation with Chris Colfer
Chris: Hi, honey! I love your costume!
Me: Thank you so much you've saved my life and changed my life and I'm such a huge fan.
Chris: Oh! You're British!
Me: Yeah, I was born in France, bought up in the UK, and now I live here.
Chris: Adopt me.
Me: Not a problem.
THEN HE LAUGHED AND IT WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SOUND IN THE WORLD.

Probably overwhelming and amazing at the same time, because at least it comes from a place of love.  

Some stores may not let the fans take pictures, but they will always have their stories and no one can ever take that away from them. (get it? Stories for TLOS? Haha...)

I love the shirt! I don't think I've ever seen him in horizontal stripes before....

I came just to say the opposite.

Not really digging this one. I like the idea of horizontal lines too, but this looks like it's made from fleece! He so much rocks the traditional cotton and jeans shirts that just the look of this material looks weird.

i like that shirt.

I honestly can't tell the difference! You must have a really good eye...that's amazing! Kurt Hummel would sure appreciate your skill!   What is fleece?!

I like it too.

I like the shirt too, it's actually one of my favorites.


Haters.

I see big battle here!   I like the shirt!

oh, no need to pick up arms and get into life and death battle over a friggin' shirt.   I'd rather see him w/o any.

I second this!

Fleece is like completely synthetic material you find in every single winter coat lining and collar made in the 90's. It's the colourful winter stuff you find in everywhere where it's cold. (You can really see that I've endured too much of fleece in my life!) Basically fleece is made from the same stuff as some plastic bottles. That's where my hatred stems from.

There is no way to tell if this shirt is fleece, it just looks a lot like it because it's a bit "bulkier" than cotton. I don't see any personal dresser choosing fleece to wear at summer, it's really warm.

ETA: There is no need for battle since it seems I'm just a rogue bandit breaking the lines.

He looks good. But I'm unsure if he has wore cotton shirts before, probably he did, but I got used to see him wearing different shirt in his book tour. And also, looks to me more than an everyday outfit , instead of something for an special event.

@valkeakuulas, now that you explaineed what's fleece, I've seen clothing with that material and I find it 'cheap', like isn't a material it will last long, even though is made of plastic, which last for centuries, but that my impression.

I like it. He looks cheek and appropiate for a book signing  

you mean "chic"? or "cheap"? i am sure you wouldn't say the later.

Opps, I mean 'chic'. Time to take a break from English today?!
