After our picture was taken, I just smiled and said, "bye," basically in awe of him. I watched him walk away, turned to my friend and started crying. My dream came true. The tears just poured out and I could not stop. I went and asked the camera guy if I could buy the pictures and then he told me, "I'm sorry it's not for sale, but they're going to be in LIFE magazine on June 30th and on the website!" I flipped out, and they thanked me, I was thanking them for allowing me to meet the man I love so much.

We walked away and I was still crying and I could barely breathe walking down the street. People looked at me like I was insane, so we walked into a bookstore and I went and called my mother to tell her. She started crying, too. It took me a good twenty minutes to calm down.

Sorry this was so long, but I wanted to write down the details to remember forever. I can't wait to see him again whether on the tour in July or before.
