hell yea my first blog everrr. a lot of stories to tell. so excited that i dont know how to begin this with.
ok so last weekend was hella bomb. me, echa, n gina FINALLY went to the warped tour. i myself couldnt even believe that we actually went there. this trip was almost impossible bcuz of the transportation n stuff, but at the last minutes we made it haha.
it started when i was randomly trying to find tickets to go to the concerts on craigslist. i found a bunch of em n i found really cheap ones, like almost half of the price (reg price: $45ish, bought it for only $28 each). that was pretty cool, so i told gina about it n she decided to go (she didnt wanna go cuz of the price).
the pre-sale limited edition ticket. looks prettier cuz its 3D
the next day which happend to be wednesday, me n the ticket-seller met up. she brought me the tix n i gave her the money. i asked her if she still had some spots in her car for us but unfortunately it was all full. no worries for me, i tried to look it up again on craigslist. n i found someone who needs some people to ride with him cuz he couldnt afford the gas money n blabla.
i txtd him n he said he still needed some people so i booked him.
i was so desperate, i made a profile on warped tour's official website n i posted my number there 0_0. as u would imagine, some random guys txtd me. weird. but theres 1 person gave me a comment asking if he could be on the ride with me bcuz he wanted to go n stuff. so i told him that we could fit 1 more person n there it goes.
a day before the D-day, the driver (his name is jason btw) told me that there's gonna b one more guy riding with us on the trunk. i dont really care as long as we get there in time.

(more like the best american experience ever!!!)
gina n echa slept over a night before.i woke up at 5 cuz chelsea was playing hull for their first match for this season. as a true blue, i of course couldn't miss this ;D. after the match was finished, i fell back to sleep n got woken up at 8. jason n his friend picked us up at around 10. we met up with the other guy (oh n his name is andrew btw, he's from ecuador) at shell gas station nearby. it was a loooooooooooong drive. 2 and a half hours successfully made my ass flat. , no joke.
the gorge was undoubtedly beautiful. it's more like a national park than a venue i guess. the scenery was really.. woww.
the main stage
we got there at 2.30ish n sadly for me, i missed some of the bands that i wanted to see like we the kings, brokencyde, and the devil wears prada cuz theyve played earlier. it's alright tho, we went to all time low's signing instead. i was in line for a half hour n i got all of their sigs but what sucks is that u cant take pics with them :(. yea it's okelaa, i got their sigs n they wrote my name also so it would cheer me up for a bit.
warped was great! many people there, many band booths, merch booths, stages were everywhere, emo people, punk people, signings, picture-taking, it was AWESOME.
i got pics n sigs with n from every avenue, forever the sickest kids, the maine, attack attack, there for tomorrow, all time low, n saosin. we watched bad religion, attack attack, TAT, you me at six, meg & dia, less than jake, all time low, nofx, streetlight manifesto, 3oh!3, and big D.
with attack!attack!
it was a really great experience after all. attack attack was crazy when i just wanted to take pics wit them. kyle from FTSK "ngegombalin" me by asking "did it hurt when u fell from heaven?" after we took pics. HAHAHAH. jonathan from FTSK randomly asked "did u guys get a pic with me yet?" when we were walking by. alex from all time low got upset when a random guy walked by n spit on zack the bassist. we ended up chanting cocksucker to that person lol. mosh-pits and crowd surfing were everywhere. it was craaayzeeeehh.
went home at 10, got back at home at around 12. was sleepy but excited. tired from walking n jumping n screaming. it was a really great day. started it out rough but ended smoothly. i hope i will still be in the states next year for warped 2010. this is the greatest experience ever.
