Sunday: Before I came to Holiday World I was woke up at like, 9a.m. to be told that I was helping at the Summer Social for our church (St.Nick). thanks for volunteering me and telling before I made plans, dad. (If you can't tell, I'm being sarcastic) I went up there and helped from 9am-1pm. I washed trays from 10am-1pm and my hands were so pink and raw that it almost hurt when I got done. I couldn't bend my fingers. Then, all the pain disappeared when I got to Holiday World because I saw Chris (I swear he is the coolest guy ever) and actually wasn't affraid to go up to him and talk. He had come up to Holiday world because he was bored and had nothing else to do. That is the story of everyone's lives around here isn't it??? I walked around with him and Ruth and some other guy for a bit and then they went into Holidog's funtown and I said bye and turned around. I saw Brandon Burke and walked around with him until his supervisor came up and then I walked away. I walked in circles until American Country and then I went and watched it. It was awesome as usual and I, asked Jillian and Chris a question about stage fright, went to the Pop Revolution at 2:15pm went to American Country, and then I found Zach Fowler and Shelby Ferguson and Chelsea Tabor and walked around with them. I didn't go to Total Praise because of them so then I asked them to come to the last Pop with me but Shelby didn't want to and since she was the most popular (really, who gives a shit???) one of the group, they listened to her. They went swimming and I walked back up to the front. The last Pop Revolution was at 5:45 and I had to leave at 7 so Pop was going to be the last show I was going to watch. (There was American Country at 7) I went in to Pop Revolution and I sat there and played Tetris and Fox Football and Bejeweled on my cell phone until I got bored and then I put my cell phone down and stared listening to the music they play before the show. I was sitting in the second row and then someone that looked very much like Chris walked in the side door that has the wheelchair/ stroller ramp. It actually was Chris and he started walking down my row and I was thinking, "Oh I guess he wants to sit next to someone over there" and I squeezed back up against my chair and moved my legs over to the side so he could get by and he went by. Instead of walking on, he sat down right next to me. To tell you the truth, it scared the crap out of me. He is like, the coolest person I have ever met and he decided to sit next to me?? I almost couldn't believe it. But there he was sitting by me... Being the retard that I am and not realizing that he probably hadn't seen me walking around with Zach, Shelby, and Chelsea, I said, "My friends wanted to go swimming, so I let them swim," and Chris was like, "Oh, okay," and then it hit me that he probably thought I was crazy or something. I didn't want to say anything else so I just shut up and listened to the music. Pop started and I guess that either the show people were as suprised as I was or I had a weird look on my face (prolly the weird look) because they kept looking over and smiling. Chris sang like, the whole time, or at least me mouthed the words and sometimes he even sort of did the dances. Right before Survive when the music was playing and Jenny hadn't started singing yet Chris like, went "WooOOOO!!" really loud and it was hilarious. I just about burst out laughing. Jenny sang her song and then she acted like she was pissed off at Chris and when she was leaving she pushed the door open really hard and then she sorta slammed it and Chruis laughed. It was great. AJ was doing Richard's part which meant that he was singing Yeah by Usher, lil John, and Ludacris and he did this awesome thing that Josh Elliot is always trying to do where he like, jumped up, went down into the splits, and popped right back up onto his feet again. I sat there with my mouth open and then I cheered really loud for him after the song. After Pop, I couldn't just leave Iike I normally do because AJ had been freaking awesome so I had to go up and say something. I went up and I said "Wow, that was AWESOME!" *pause* "I have a friend who tried to do that once but...," pause " Whooo... That was cool!" and then I turned to go outside. Chris turned and looked at me weird... or at least I think he was looking at me and then I left. I looked from 6:15 all the way until 6:58 for Chris so that I could say goodbye but I couldn't find him anywhere. I was really sad but at the same time I was happy so I went home and curled up in my computer chair with some pie and IMed people until I got tired. I haven't been laying outside looking at the stars as much as I used to at the beging of the summer so I just went to sleep. .....
Monday: I woke up at about 9 and the only thing in my head was, "I gotta get to Holiday World. I took a shower, ate some cold cereal, and started getting ready to go and I called Amanda. I was talking to her and I got a beep and it was Candice asking if Brandon had left some Holiday World tickets on the kitchen counter. I went and looked and I didn't see any so I said no and flashed back over. I talked to Amanda for a while and then I got another beep and it was Brandon asking it Candice had found the tickets. I said no, where are they and he told me that they were outside on the bulletin board in our garage. I went out and found them and brought them inside, clicked back over to Amanda and after a while I got ANOTHER beep. It was Candice and I told her I had the tickets and asked if she could take me up there and she said to find a ride home and she would. I called Grandma and she said that she'd pick me up at 8 and I waited until about 12:15 for Candice. Candice and her friends were all piled into this little red car and so I piled in too and we got up to Holiday World finally. It was about 12:30 when I walked in I think and I went and got same Pepsi and waited for Pop to get let out. I walked back out and Chris was standing over by Holiday Theater and I went over and said hi and he asked if I had seen the show and I said nope and he told me that someone didn't do something that they were supposed to do and the show didn't sound as good ass it could have but it didn't sound bad either. He said that all the show people were mad and we started walking and I had no clue what to say so I asked is there anything that could make them happy? I think he heard it the way I meant to say it, not like, "those stuck up people, is there anything that will make them happy" and he said, "Oh, they'll get over it." By then we were going past the highdive place and he said something about getting a hot dog. I walked over to The Goblin burger and said goodbye and that I was gonna go and ride the Legend. I rode the Legend and then I couldn't find him so I went down to the water park and talked to Kasey, Amanda's sister, who was working in Trader Nick's. I talked to her until I got bored again, and then I went to the next show. It was Total Praise and there were these awesome people standing up waving their hands in the air along with the music and the show people were craking up and I was sitting there with my hand over my mouth watching them. I could have died laughing. Finally, the show was over and then I waited around until American Country and then I went to see it. I was sitting there in peace watching them sing and dance and then all of a sudden, Josh came at me with the mike and he's like, "Can I get a Yee-ha?" and I'm like, "YEE-HA!" and chris turned around and smiled and everybody else also looked at me but not so happily and the show people smiled too. Again, I had the crap scared out of me.
