Hey guys, so this is what my day was like at the NY mall tour. My mom and I got to the mall and there was only like 10
people in line (cause we were very early) so we went to fins a picture frame for this picture thingy I made Ryan (I don't
really know how to explain what it looks like but Ryan said he's going to post it on his site). So we got the frame and went
to stand in line. There still were only about 15 people there. When it became time for the Cast to come, there might have
been 30 people there. I was kind of worried. I decided to play some games to get the cards for them to sign, so I went over
to the game where you throw paper into a basket (I was really bad and it took me a while to get them in). I got a cup with
Ryan's (Patton's) picture. The girl who was working the game asked me if I liked Ryan the best and I told her I was a big
fan. Then she asked if I wanted more pictures, so she let me take a picture of each. Then I met this girl who was extremely
nice and we hung out a bit. Then the cast came kind of late. They were in New York City in the morning for some morning show
(i forget which one). I took pictures of them walking in. (Still there was only like 60 people, very small crowd). When they
announced Ryan's name, I screamed…too bad I was the only one that did. I felt kind of stupid. (And he probably has it
on his video camera ). The, I waited in line to get autographs. They were in the order April, Sarah, Johnny, Jake, and Ryan
at the end. So i walked up to April and gave her my letter, Ashlee's letter that I had to give to them for her. She was so
excited to get letters! Then I moved onto Sarah. She is SO PRETTY! She was very friendly too! When I gave her the letters,
she said “Oh I'm going to cry!” I guess she was happy to get letters. Then I moved on to Johnny. He's so funny!
Then I went to Jake, and then finally to Ryan! He is so cute in person! I love his noise! I gave him the letter, which he
liked, and then I gave him the picture thing I made. (I felt so stupid giving it to him since only one other girl gave him
something, and that was a stuffed bear.) But its all good cause he LOVED IT! (Like I said, he's going to put it on his site).
He showed it to Jake and Jake though it was so cool (but I felt bad cause I only made one for Ryan). So then Ryan and I took
a bunch of pictures and he kept saying thank you. (At that time I was shaking from the excitement). He gave me a hug too!
I was in heaven. Then he showed his mom and me and my mom talked to her for a while. She is so nice! I even got a picture
with her! I talked with her about a lot of things. We talk about how well the cast members get along, Punk'd, Spy kids, his
brother Aaron, and anything else you could think of talking to her about. I even asked her how tall Ryan is cause a bunch
of people wanted to know. She said she didn't know his exact height, but he's taller than her (she is 4'11). I know he's about
one inch shorter than me, so we figured he's around 5'1. Then I met one of the Ashley's from the board. She really nice! Lets
see…what else. Since the cast members were so late getting there, they didn't do any of their games. And Ryan didn't
get to do his trivia, so no one got “you Likey” shirts. So I really wanted one of those shirts, so I asked Mrs.
Pinkston if she knew where I could get one. She asked a few of the people and sure enough, they found a box of them. I didn't
even have to win the shirt! I just got one! (The other two girls I hung out with did too). We wanted to get them signed, and
the line was really short, so we got back in line. When I got up to them again, I told them I was the girl with the letter,
so they would remember me, and they did. Once again they were sooooo nice! When I got to Jake, the boys were being funny.
Jake noticed Johnny didn't have his letter I wrote on the table, so he said “Hey Johnny, where is your letter?”
(Joking around). Johnny told him it was under the table and then Ryan started in on the conversations. He's like “Shouldn't
Johnny put his letter up on the table?” (He was trying to joke around and make Johnny feel bad). The Johnny did start
to feel bad and asked me if I wanted him to put the letter on the table. Jake and Ryan were saying to me “Say yes, say
yes!” I told him no cause I didn't want to make him feel stupid. And Johnny said “I didn't want to put it on the
table and be like… EVERYONE LOOK AT MY LETTER!” Oh man, it was so funny! Well that was the wonderful day, sorry
about how long it is. I like to go into major detail.
