I don’t know how to start this, but I met Mika tonight

ok so literally just got home and this is a very fresh memory (it happened like 40 minutes ago) so I want to write it all down before I forget anything… this is going to be a long post though 

So I went to a concert with my parents here in London and they were having some technical difficulties so everything was running late. We were starting to get a bit irritated as the concert was 1 hour late at this point AND THEN MY MUM POKES ME AND SAYS “hey that guy looks just like Mika” to which i immediately reply “THAT IS MIKA!” He was with a group of friends by the way and as they were walking to their seats quite a few rows down from us my mum was being really embarrassing and taking photos of him…. So at this point I decide that I need to take a chance and just go for it after the concert is finished and I need to get a photo with him. Might I add that ever since I’ve moved to London I’ve been entertaining the idea of how lucky and strange it would be if I just so happened to bump into Mika. Lo and behold that actually happened tonight! 

Throughout the hour and half concert (which was really good by the way and I think Mika enjoyed it as well because he was bopping his head to the songs) I rehearsed what I would say and how I would approach him about a thousand times. I obviously didn’t want to disturb his night but I have also never before had the opportunity to meet him so I had to go for it. It was the longest hour and half of my life. After the end of the concert I got up to make my way towards the exit where he would leave and of course they left early before everyone else started filing out so I was kind of running after his entourage trying to catch them and probably pissing a lot of people off in the audience. 

THIS IS HOW IT ACTUALLY WENT DOWN - I managed to catch them on the stairs and he was looking back up the staircase towards his friends because they were talking so I just smiled at him and waved a bit and then the following dialogue: (What I said will be in Italics and Mika’s in bold) 

- Hi I’m sorry I don’t want to disturb you but could you please take a photo with me 

- Sure no problem, let’s find better lighting (AND THEN HE PROCEEDS TO PUT HIS HAND ON MY BACK AND GUIDE ME TO A BETTER SPOT (I had a mini anxiety attack there) so then his friend offers to take a photo of us. 

-Thank you so much, this is the first time I’ve had the opportunity to meet you even though I’ve been to a lot of your concerts and I’m so happy that I finally had the chance. I know you must get this a lot but I’m a really big fan of yours (and then I said other incomprehensible things which all boiled down to excited screaming basically)

- (in response to how many people must come up to him everyday) No I don’t get many people and then he fucking GIGGLED LIKE!!!!!!!! WHAT !!!!!!! 

After this he asked me my name and where I’m from etc. He also repeated my name back and then I told him that I moved to London recently and that I study History of Art

-Oh cool, where are you studying 

-[Name of the uni which is quite well known for it’s Art History department]

-Amazing, a lot of my good friends studied there

- Yeah I love it too! Thank you again for taking a photo with me I hope to see you in concert soon

- Yeah I should be doing one next year (I assume he meant a concert in London specifically but also concerts in general?) 

- I will definitely be there you can count on that

- Well enjoy your time at xyz university and it was nice to meet you!

and then he gave me a hug and we were walking away from each other but I also said thank you again and wished him a nice Christmas break to which he smiled and said thank you to me…………….. lads, I don’t know how I’m able to keep my cool writing this. First of all, we all know how nice he is but he genuinely is incredibly lovely. He must have been really tired but he took the time not only for a photo but then ask me who I am and what I do and having a little chat which he initiated! I’m floored… also he smells really good kind of spicy and sweet, I’m sure it was amber or cinnamon

So there you have it… I’ve been a fan of Mika since 2013, so it took 4 years to meet him but I did it! So if anyone is feeling sad that they haven’t had the opportunity yet DON’T GIVE UP! I promise you that you’ll get there and maybe in an unexpected way like I did! 

Also here’s the photo because I’m way too happy to not share it:

Those will forever be my favorite pictures ever and I’ll never get over the giant WTF of those moments.

Even before we started, he [William Hartnell] said, “This is going to go on forever.” He was right, bless him.

This happened one year ago today and I am still not over it.

WE ARE NOT WHAT YOU THINK WE ARE, WE ARE GOLDEN!

Nîmes, 16/07/16.

Like one of the happiest and saddest moment at the same time. Him proudly waving the flag while shouting how golden we are, like a big ”Hey look at us, we’re still standing, still dancing, you won’t deprive us of our freedom”. The emotion of that night, him and us all together determined to sing and to dance and to do as much noise as we could. Determined to stand. We might be scared but we keep on standing, and he is standing with us.

“Music is not a pivilege. Music is a right. It is liberty. Liberty, Equality, Fraternity.”

Thank you, Mika.
