Tim: Hey, how you doin'?
Me: I'm good. Great concert.
What? Fine. Okay. It was more like this.
Me: I...I'm good. G... Great concert..t.
*Slightly awkward pause as he signs my poster*
Me: I...I'm you guys' biggest fan. You guys are the best. (Woo! I got over stammering. Or so I thought.)
Tim: Really? That's great.
Me: Thanks.
Tim: Alright.
After two steps to the right, I was good as flashbanged. I was face to face with Jon Foreman. Only a table separating the two of us. . . Not that. I wanted. To get any closer. Back on track- my heart was beating more times a second than Aron Tan stole in his whole life(that's a lot, mind you).
Jon: Hi. What's your name?
Me: I'm Cedric.
*Just a little awkward pause*
Me: I... I'm you guys' biggest fan. (I said I was flashbanged, right?)
Jon: Thanks. That's a nice shirt.
Me: Th... Thanks.
He was done signing my poster. No. Not enough. I had to say more.
Me: Good job on your EP. I really loved it. Great stuff!
Jon: Thanks so much.
Life was never so fulfilling (Figure of speech, people.). I'd bet my ang pau money I was one of the few, if not the only person to have said something about his solo EP (Yes, he has one. Did you know that?). I was dazed, so dazed that I was silent the whole time as...
Jerome...
Drew...
...and Chad...
...signed the poster and shook my hand. Yup, THAT stunned.
What happen afterward is a blur in my memory. If I wasn't mistaken, I was floating among the clouds, until Jun Min said it was time to go.
And the tale concludes.
Author's note: In case you're wondering, why this post wasn't decorated with colorful words complimented by MULTIPLE adjectives, along with some poetry and some other 'Cedric big post' content, like I said, it's probably unfathomable with words describing the feeling. Just let the power of simple language carry you to the clouds I was floating on... Sigh...
Talk about drama, eh? *wink*

Cedric, let me start by saying I love the art! I like the way you got Jon's blue eyes just right.
Next, let me tell ya I'd probably be the same way- flashbanged. There are no words in the human vocabulary to describe the depth of emotions these guys evoke. Maybe you should have just purred like a cat or a well-maintained Mustang convertible.
Once again, your artwork is totally awesome!
Thanks for the comments guys! (:
