No Jason Mraz...

I'm so disappointed.

I was so close to getting to meet him. My dad got to meet one of the trumpet players in his band and took him a copy of the drawing I made for him with a note, hoping to get some kind of response, but... well, nothing happened. I'm so sad.

I'm going to sound really cheesy right now, and really dumb, but a lot of people don't understand just what Jason Mraz means to me. His music has helped me get through some really, really tough times, and I just wanted so badly to thank him for existing, for putting a little light in my darkness even when he didn't know he was doing it. When I'm down and out, I can listen to his music and it reminds me that things are going to turn out okay. That's power, right there.

So, yeah, I'm really disappointed because I've been so close and let down twice. I mean, I can hold a little solace in the fact that he knows I exist, but I really wanted to just talk to him. I'm not some creepy stalker or anything. I just wanted him to know my story and know just how much I appreciated everything that he does. He's not just a wonderful musician, but he's also a wonderful person, and I just wish I could tell him.

That was really all I wanted.

...So, I'm SAD. Somebody cheer me up. D:
