Yes, das ist... I mean yeah, that's me. Sorry, I just came from my German class. AHAHAHAHA! It's funny. I dunno yet. I still can't find a place to stay at. I'm desperately looking for hostels now cause everything's booked! *shakes head* I am so stupid to have not reserved a place last month. If I end up not having a place to stay in... I may just not go... but I really, really, really do want to. This is one chance in a lifetime... I almost feel like talking to hostels there who don't have spaces that I can take a couch instead. *sigh* I'll tell you by Thursday. but hopefully tomorrow. Thanks sozmet or may I call you Shirley? You may want to try out www.couchsurfing.com. Good luck!

We have to meet up!!! I'm soooo excited!!! ^_^ Hee hee hee hee! I won't be attending the fashion show though, that's a Thursday and I have class... so yeah...

I hope you'll find a couch eventhough you haven't tried it before. (on cf.com some ppl look at your "reviews" from when you've couchsurfed and hostd a surfer... )

Die hat viel sachen für Deutschlerne. You'll learn a lot. ^_^ I'm gonna be staying at a lodge. It is owned by the University opposing mine. Ahahahha! It's not cheap, but at least it's better than having to pay $500 for a night. Vielen Dank! Woher kommen Sie?

I just realized something...... I should have left earlier... like this afternoon earlier. It just so happens that Jo and Thore are co-hosting the Fashion show for Mr. Gay World 2009 and I just missed it. What a bummer. All that money spent and not going to be able to see our 2 favorite men from Verbotene Liebe at all. Shirley, that's why you asked if I was going to the fashion show or not. Huhuhuhu! Stupid me, I didn't even try to find out if they would be there through out the competition. *sigh* Ahaha... Suddenly, I don't feel so ecstatic anymore.

I thought they were scheduled for several of the events, not just the fashion show. Don't give up... I know you'll get to see them. And I'm jealous that you can even go...

Thanks husky14620. I needed that booster. I just wished that I knew what those events were so I could at least go and see them, even from afar. Shirley, sozmet, is sooooo lucky to have spent time with them for sure. Hopefully this isn't the last event they'll be attending together in North America. Maybe next time we could all go ^_^

Glad you like it and you are welcome! The prices are a little expensive, I thought that too. But it is worth it. Are you leaving tomorrow? Have a save trip and enjoy every minute off it. Greetings from Holland to Canada!

OKAY! Shirley? Divine? WE WANT A REPORT!
SPILL! How wonderful were they? How much time did you get to spend with them? How many fans made it? Did the regular ski bums even know how lucky they were? Did you get to ski with our guys? Did they dance at the ball? Did they dance with YOU at the ball?
AND WE WANT PHOTOS! ;D

Hey guys! Just got home after a fantastic weekend!! When I say that Jo and Thore are absolutely the best, the most wonderful, the SWEETEST guys in the entire world...I am NOT kidding. I left North Carolina on Thursday morning at 7am and by 12:30pm (don't forget I had to go back 3 hours), I was in Vancouver. The plane ride was alright, but the bus trip into Whistler, which was about 2 1/2 hours was hell. Haha. Not really, but oh my..such a long way on curvy (but beautiful mountain roads) and my poor stomach was telling me that I had better lay down or I was going to get sick. I managed to make it there and settle myself in. Later, I caught up with Charlie who was getting ready to head over to the Fashion show for a sound check. I told him that I would meet him later. No sign at this point of the boys. So, I walked over to meet Charlie and while I was waiting on him to finish his work, in walked Todd (the guy would took them around and made sure they got where they were supposed to be all weekend) and JO!!! I said hello and he was like "Shirley!!", he came running over, we hugged and he looked at me and said " You are so big".. LOL. I said what??? He got this look and said "nooo.. not like that, I mean (and he held his hand up like "height"). Haha. He said I thought you were a tiny thing. After assuring him that I had not been that short since 1st grade, we just started talking and it was as if I had known him for ages. At this point, Thore was not with them. I would meet him later. The Fashion show was that night and it was fabulous!!! 19 delegates for Mr. Gay World from countries all over the world!! It was fun to watch this fantastic show!! Charlie (David) was the host of it and he did a wonderful job. Jo and Thore were judges. When the part came to introduce our VL boys, they showed a clip of them. Guess which one? You got it. Christian telling Olli that he had fallen in love with him. Olli walks in, up to him turns him around, reachs up to kiss him..mouths almost meet and CUT!!! It shoots to the VL theme song. The crowd was moaning!!! LOL. Jo was embarrassed to death. He told me later that standing up while the clip was showing was embarrassing. And you could tell. LOL!! Afterwards we went to a party and had a fantastic time. Friday was fun on top of Whistler mountain. (see photos) I uploaded some pictures onto my facebook and I set it for everyone. However, I didn't put them here yet because I have to resize them. I also put them on google web album. Here is the link. I hope it works. picasaweb.google.com/sozment2/Whistler2009#I only have about 8 or 9 however, Jo and Thore always had their cameras out so you may be seeing some of theirs. And Devinewinds... he has some as well. (BTW, you were completely awesome!!!!!!! I loved meeting you and hanging out. ) Then some lunch and it's rest time for me. The guys had to meet with the Delegates. Then that night it was the Mountaintop party. Jo, Thore, Todd and myself went up to the party. It was dark and we all had to ride that gondala thing up the mountain. A 20 minute ride. So, they hand you a little emergency kit in case something happens while you up 1000's of feet in the air,with very little light!! There were 3 other people in the ride with us and we're going up the mountain. Todd is treating the others to a little "Christian and Olli video footage from his ipod.. LOL"...and suddenly it stops!! Me... Immediately, I'm like..ok..what is going on. Thore..being the outdoor guy is like..lets see what is in our little emergency bag. So, they pull out all the stuff and start going through it. LOL. It had this red blinking thing.. Like anyone was going to see THAT from halfway down the mountain. I was nervous, Jo was telling me not to be. No, he was Mr. Cool himself. LOL! After about 5 minutes, it started again..but what an interesting ride. Saturday the boys did a snow mobile thing. They can tell about that..I was not there...but from what they said, it was super fantastic!!!! They had a blast!!! Pictures will show up, I know it. Then Sat. night the Snowball dance after the Mr. Gay World Finale in which Mr. Southern Ireland won. Great time was had by everyone. And I believe that Jo and Thore are about to drop by now. The flight there and back must have seemed endless to them. I know mine did and I stopped 8 hours before they did. So, that's about it.. Hope it wasn't too long. S.

Thank you Shirley for the brief report.
It looks like those were the same jackets the guys wore to the bobsled thing in Germany last week. How cool.
And what was the PSA they had Charlie doing?
Will Jo and Thore be posting any of their pics on their MySpace pages? And will we be getting an update on their blogs?
I'm glad you got to go, and very glad you enjoyed yourself. And very very glad you gave us your report.
Vielen Dank!
