It was 100 degrees outside and I was burning up- I got there at about 9:40ish this morning. At about 10:10 the kickoff for the festival started and Ruben Studdard sang the National Anthem-

the Mayor spoke and then Ruben put on a mini concert singing 3 of his songs (wasn't in the ad to do this) so while we were in his meet and greet line scheduled to start at 1030 he kept singing til about 11 and began to sign- Slowly I got up there and was excited-- Boy was I mistaking-- It wasn't worth it- I got to say Hi, My name's Dallas- he handed me a presigned photo, didn't personalize it,

and took a picture with me- It was blurry.
I then went to try and find Cody Linley- when I found his location at 1125 I went to get in the line- WOW... It was about a mile long- Wrapped around the trees-- I was shocked- he had just started signing at 11 and it was already this long- I was dissapointed and walked up to his tent and got a halfway decent picture of him-

That was upsetting-- He was one of my main focuses there- We left, went to see a movie and came back later--
I was so suprised when I came back around 420 and there was only 6 people in line to see Demi Lovato- I was expecting it to be as long as Cody Linley so I had dropped by to snap a picture of her--

Wow.. It was awesome- I got to wait for like 5 minutes and then I got up there and I talked to her a little bit- She signed a pic for me-

She has a sister named Dallas and a friend thats a guy named Dallas and here I'm Dallas. haha. We talked about Camp Rock and that I was really looking forward to seeing it- She asked if I was a fan of the Jonas Brothers and I said yes-- Then I got to go behind the table and get my picture taken with her- All in all Demi was awesome and is one of the nicest people I've met- I should've just waited and saw her tonight- It wasn't worth it for Ruben.
Now there's my book long story of a day--
A now happy Dallas
