The Fault in our Stars Tour

So i went to the Seattle The Fault In Our Stars Tour.  I tried to get tickets for the Vancouver tour, but I waited to long and they sold out.  

So the tour was pretty great.  I don't know if I would drive 7 hours again for something like this, but this time it was worth it.  I think the thing is, I prefer smaller gatherings.  With less people.  More intimate. That sort of thing.  It's a pity.  I'd rather have a conversation with people I want to meet, rather than sit and watch them talk and then stand in line to get a signature.  It's different with musicians, because well I like their music so i go to the show. But with John, i like his writing. I want to know what goes on inside of his head.  I'd rather have a conversation with him than just to watch him stand up in front of a crowd and say the same thing for a millionth time.  I'd rather have a relationship with him than just fan.  I guess I'm setting myself up for disappointment though.  

Anyway the gathering was loads of fun.  I saw Toddly00 and I talked to Kristina Horner.  About Ponies.  And her new web show. But Ponies.  

I got like 7 of my books signed. I had to divide them among my friends. It was good. Really good.  They were impressed with my french edition of Looking For Alaska.  John wished us a safe drive back up to Vancouver. 

I have spoken to John Green.  And he has spoken to me. It was good. 

We got home at 12:30.  

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!  

So this year I'm planning on blogging a lot more and taking more pictures.  Hopefully that will happen.
New Years Resolution post coming soon! 

Another good day.

Today was a good day

• Coffee with the boyfriend at my favorite cafe for a few hours
• We caught up after not seeing each other for 8 days. which is 8 days too many. 
• The employees probably hate us for taking up the best table in the establishment and for kissing a lot.  I don't care. 
• I loved every moment of it. 
• I love spending time with him <3 
• Bought new moleskine notebooks
• Finally bought my microphone
• Bought music that I've been meaning to pick up for forever. 

Why November is my favorite month

• Movember
• It snows
• I'm always with my friends for the first snowfall of the season
• Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 1 came out in November 
• November 17th and 18th are always amazing 
• November 18th 2010 and 2011 tie for best day of my life

This november started out a bit uneasy and terrible, but things quickly settled down and November has reclaimed its spot as my favorite month.  

Woah close up of me.

All I ever wanted was to be enough for you. To make you happy, and to make things alright.  And even though you said you trusted me, I know you didn't.  Not completely.  

All I wanted to go on adventures with you and read books and listen to music with you by my side. You wouldn't go on adventures with me, you'd only go on adventures with her.  And you wouldn't read books with me, and we'd only listen to your music together.  

God I wanted to be okay together. I wanted things to be lovely.  I wanted to be the only thing you ever needed.  And now you left me and I don't know what to do.  

Kayla does art

For the first time in my life, I painted this past week.  And so today, I went and picked up some watercolours.  By no means am I very good at any form of visual arts, but I thought I'd give this a go.
First painting inspired by the album, The first days of spring by Noah and the Whale.
