.:When I (Kirsty *owner*) met Marli (20th April):.Someone had been told what time the tour bus was due to arrive so we decided to stay where we were but unfortunately security noticed us and we had to move. Shortly after the tour bus did arrive � The driver stopped and Ainslie came off the bus and spoke to everyone and got photos taken, as there was a huge, brilliant �Ainslie Whip Us Hard� banner waiting for him. Also Malachi appeared to be filming this at the front of the bus. He then got taken back on the bus and it drove off to the back of the venue. I was quite disappointed that the other students weren�t allowed to get off as I would have loved to have seen Marli (the windows were blacked out) � but it was still great for everyone to meet Ainslie, he was lovely and it was really kind of him to come off the bus. We then went inside and everyone tried various ways to contact the FA students but messages weren�t allowed to be passed on. Now I have to say a massive thank you toVal who spoke to someone from the �Make A Wish Foundation� and he kindly allowed me backstage with the children he was with as I have had health problems for quite some time.
I don�t think I�ve ever been so nervous in my life when I was standing waiting on the students coming in. (This is coming from me the world�s most nervous person hehe). We were soon joined by all the Fame Academy boys apart from Ashley (I�m not sure why he couldn�t come) I�m usually too shy when it comes to talking to people but I did try and speak to everyone and I got photos taken with them, they all appear on Fame Academy Friends. They were all lovely to meet and looked even nicer in real life � if that�s possible.
We were then told that our time was up and we had to go. The time seemed to go in so quick and I was wondering where the girls were�(not that I was complaining being around all the boys
but you know what I mean) I did ask where the girls were and got told that they were away getting ready.Just as we were about to leave you can imagine my delight when Marli and Camilla walked in the room. (bet you never saw that coming
hehe) My mum and I went up to her and I asked for her autograph and I mentioned the site and how big a fan I was. (I really couldn�t believe I was talking to Marli � it didn�t seem real to me) My mum then asked if it was ok to take a quick photograph; Marli replied really happily asking if she could have one with her camera too. (I don�t think the grin left my face after that hehe) My mum took both photos and then we were getting moved one way and Marli was getting moved the other as we really should have been out by this time!I was completely overwhelmed � Marli couldn�t have been any nicer, so sweet and appreciative of everything � and incredibly pretty! All this happened in the space of 5/10 mins but Marli�s definitely one of the nicest people I�ve ever met and it�ll be a day I won�t forget.
