Squeee!!

Squee refers to the noise a fangirl make when she's in close proximity to something cute or something that she's a fan of. In this case....

I'M GOING TO MEET LINDSEY STIRLING!

Tomorrow night, she's going to have a concert in Salt Lake. My dad bought tickets for the show when he asked me, "Do you want to meet her?"

Ever since I discovered her, it's been my dream to meet her. But my brain suddenly went into overdrive, thinking of all the stupid things I could potentially say, embarrassing myself in front of my idol. After all, she's amazing! I told my dad I needed to think about it, essentially confirming my denial of having a meet-n-greet session with an artist I admire.

But my brain wasn't done thinking yet. It told me, "When you tell your kids that you had a chance to meet Lindsey Stirling, and you say you wussed out, what are they gonna think?" That thought alone spurred me to wonder, "What am I gonna think?" Instantly, I felt regret. Regret that I had a chance to meet with a person who inspires me to go out and get my dream. Regret that, in a moment that probably is once in a lifetime, I turned it down because I was afraid of looking stupid.

I texted my dad back, saying "Let's do it." After that, I had a silent fit of screaming with joy. I began to dance around, the realization that I was going to meet my idol sinking in.

Now that I'm a day away from the big event, it's even more present. What makes it better is that my 9:30 class isn't being held on Friday, which means I can spend the night at my house and drive back to Logan safely without fear of me nodding off on the side of the road.

It's meant to be.

Friday I'll be fangirling like crazy. :)
