   You All Remember DragonForce...



...Correct? My huge giant craze, and how I got added to 4 of the members' myspaces? I'll list them for you:
~Vadim Pruzhanov (keyboards)
~Herman Li (Guitar, and founder)
~Frederic Leclercq (Bass)
~Dave Mackintosh (Drums)

I've talked to every single one of them by now. Vadim the most. I'll leave him for last because he's got the most to talk about. (INSIDE INFORMATION!!!! XD) They all think I'm 19. (That's what my myspace says, as a joke, but they took it seriously...and if I correct them, I'll get talked down to, that's what happened with Reagan and Chad Kroeger.)

Okay, Fred first. I was talking to Vadim, and apparently Fred was completely smashed, and crashed out at Vadim's place. So, before he went to go sort Fred out, I told him to tell Fred "Hello, loser, this is why you don't get drunk!" and add a smiley. So, Vadim comes back, and Fred had sent him to say "Ahhh, get fucked." And add a smiley. Charming...

Herman next. HE messaged ME, so of course I went beserk. The founder of DragonForce, the best band on the Earth, was TALKING TO ME. WILLINGLY!!!!!!!!!!! He asked if the other members were terrorizing me, or the other way around. (He was referring to the fact that Vadim and I talk alot) So I told him, no, everyone was being very nice to me. He asked who, and I told him: Dave, Fred, and Vadim. After that he apparently threatened Vadim that he would get on the Official DragonForce myspace and message me all sorts of lovey-dovey stuff, posing as Vadim. That's probably not a good idea to tell a muscular 25 year old man...but Herman is trained in Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

Dave now. He's quitting smoking, and he hasn't smoked for four solid months now. At the two month mark, I left a comment telling him he was awesome, and to keep it up! He messaged me back, telling me thank you, etc. We talked a few times after that. I talk to him 2nd most. I talk to the next guy almost daily. :]

Okay, now....FRANK!! Just kidding. Vadim Pruzhanov, age 25. Born in Ukraine, but moved to London. Took piano lessons at a school for three years starting at 8, but quit when he was 12 and started writing his own music. Joined DragonForce at age 17, and recorded the official Valley of the Damned, but not the demo. Trust me, it sounds so much better with keyboards.

Well, Otaku was still sane when I first talked to him, so I know I posted about it. But in February we REALLY started talking, like, actual conversations. Basically about what we were up to. I'm not sure if I posted THIS though:

-------------------------------------------------

Yes, he asked me to go fro a drink! :] No, I'm DEFINITLEY not going to drink alcoholic drinks. I am sticking to Shirley Temples, through and through, and Vadim knows it. I'm officially going to the DragonForce concert here in Dallas at the Smirnoff Center on July 25. I'm bringing Kat and Reagan, two of my best friends. My brother is chaperoning, and he has agreed to:
~Take me and my friends to the concert
~Allow me to get a drink with the band
~Cover my 19 year old age

SO LONG AS

~He gets to keep an eye on me.
~We leave when he says we do.

Yup, that's it! That's all he has to do. Of course I agreed. No blackmail? Wow.

Anyway, back to Vadim. So, in mid-April, he asked if I had MSN. Well, I have a Mac, so I didn't think I could get a Windows application. I told him that. So he disappears for about twenty minutes, and comes back and he's found me a link where I can download MSN on a Mac!! So, after it was all loaded and done, I added him (No, I will NOT give you his MSN, email, or Myspace, the guy is entitled to his privacy!) and we've been talking on there up till the present day. :] He's very funny, deep, and polite. No, I do NOT have "feelings" for him. I just think he's a good friend, and that is ALL. No worries!

I'm sorry this is so long, but I have to update you guys on what's been going on in my life since Otaku went to the mental asylum. ;_;

Okay, I'll get off the DragonForce subject for now. :]

So, I'm guessing you guys are PRETTY suprised that I haven't said a THING about Will by now, right? Well, I dunno, we sorta just...stopped talking. *shrug* Pretty soon it was getting to the point where I would forget to go upstairs in the morning with Reagan to go say hi to him or whatever, and then it got to where Reagan would literally have to DRAG me. (She only wanted to go up there because her ex Terry, whom she still loves, comes out of the same classroom and she could get a glimpse of him.) And...yeah.

Okay, I think I'll take this Update-You-On-My-Life think in small doses. I'm not even halfway done, but I don't want to overwhelm you, so I'll end it here for today. If you want to see the men I love so much, watch the video in my introduction. I think each day I'll upload a new DragonForce video on here to entertain you at the bottom of my posts. So, here's a short clip of them live. Watch Sam and Fred reveal their true colours...
