Hey Mister Lawi! So you didn't see her this morning? I'm so sad for you! Anyway, It was cool to meet you saturday night! * le fameux verre, l'écharpe* De bons fous rire!

I hope next time she'll come in Europe, you can see her!

Aw, met a girl from the south of France with crazy eyeshadow and a drawn on Ayu logo near her eye. Is she on the forums? It was really pretty.

Is anyone going on the weekdays this week? I think I'm going to suck it up and stay in a hostel...

Spoiler:

The best day of my life!

But our experience has been really mmh, strange....filled with moments of joy and moments of disappointment >_<


Sorry for my english, we're not best friends =D



We arrived at the hotel at midnight, so we went to sleep waiting for the next day!
The next day we went in front of the Claridge's at 17.00, and initially we were only 6 people! We spent our time to chat, tweet to Ayu saying that we were outside the hotel...but nada!
Mitsu came at 22.30 to tell us that Ayu would not be out that evening, and that she was busy with the new songs.
Basically we went there from 17.00 to 22.30 to take cold and to freeze =D

Obviously we were disappointed, but we were convinced that the next day she would come out (since she didn't appear in 2 days in a row)

The second day we went there at 16.00 and we were about 15 people! In addition there was 2 Japanese people, a girl and a boy who had come from Saitama only to see Ayu in London (because in Japan they can only see the concerts and they can't talk with her, to get autographs, etc.). But the shocking thing is that they were not even went to their hotel after 12 hours and more of flight and they came directly in front of Claridge's with all the suitcases without resting at all ... they are not human · A ·

The same waiting, the same tweets begging her to come because it was the last day for us and our last opportunity to see her (so we were desperate) ...

Then I went to Starbucks to buy something hot to drink with Mami and Aura ... and when we came back we saw Tim.

HE'S WONDERFUL!! He came to us, we talked, then I told him that it was the last chance to see Ayu and he said "I didn't see Ayu today, however, if I meet her I'll let her know about it!" and on twitter he said to me "great to be able to meet u in person!" He's a fantastic person without any doubt! Very friendly!

But then ... at around 20.30 Mitsu came again to tell us that Ayu would not be out that evening either.
So we were desperate, I almost had tears in the eyes. The only thing we could do was leave to him our gifts for Ayu.
A mixture of anger, disappointment, despair .... absurd.

When we come back to the hotel we sent to Ayu tweets like, "it was the only chance to see you, I'm really sad that I couln't meet you".... and things like that ...

At 03.00am I got a message from a friend saying: Ayu said that she will meet you today...


There, I woke up in the panic..and our hopes werw reborn, we started to hope again (since we went bed with a ****** mood) and we went immediately to look at that tweet and she said: "loBely fans in the UK! I've been very busy recently .. sorry I could not meet up u.Lets c tmrw Let Him @ hidemitsuh know if u have 2 When leave! "

Basically we knew it was directed TO US because we were the only ones to leave on that day! A lot of people helped us to tweet to Ayu about our departure ;___;

So we told that Mitsu that could stay in front of the hotel until 14:30 - 15:00 because then we had to take the bus to go to the airport.

So yesterday morning we went outside the hotel at 12.00 and we started to wait .. and wait ... and to keep tweeting Mitsu!
But still nothing ... we did not know what to think ... because she usually exit at 17-18!
At some point while I was on Twitter I read a message of Mitsu "To Ayu's fans waiting to see her: She is working out and we will be back around 2:30. See you then!"

ENDLESS JOY.

We waited and then a staff member came to ask if we were ok and he said: "Ayumi will be here in 5-10 minutes, okay?"

TIOHREFKORITHGRJEFKFORIG I STARTED TO DIE. NervousNervousNervousNervousNervous!

At some point I started to hear screams ... I turned to the side .... and my heart stopped beating.

She arrived, had a white fur ... and...and..and .. she was so beautiful ;____;

The first thing she said was "who have to leave?" or something like that..and...how cute...she was talking about me and Mami ;___;

She went outside before her normal time to meet fans ONLY FOR US!
I immediately I raised my hand and she told me to come;_____;

I went next to her, I gave her my CD and while she was signed she asked me "At what time are you leaving ? At what time do you have the flight?" ... I was in a panic, I did not know how to answer, I did not even know my name XDDD and I said "We have to leave in 30 minutes" ... but panic XDD

Then it was time to take a picture together, I gave my camera to Mitsu but there were 2 other staff members, one was taking the picture with his iPhone (all with Swarovski and in the back cover there was the new logo, the HOTEL Love Song) and one with her Lumix!

I went near her and she hugged me tightly, she stuck her face on mine and put his hand to the side of the head, near the ear XD

I thanked her a thousand times, that's all. My mind was blank, I could not think of anything! I couldn't say anything XD

There were so many people, about 30! Everyone with autographs and individual photo!

Of course ..... I burst into tears .... and all the eyeliner start to melting and I looked like a panda LOL, I had it EVERYWHERE XDD
Tim looked at us and made a face like "oooh come on, do not cry <33" and then he came to us and asked "ehi, how are you?" and me "BAD" XDDD
Then we took a picture together XD

The driver of Ayu is a *****.

However in the end we had a group photo, she thanked us and went away.

Of course it was the happiest day of my life, we lost hope of meeting her, we were very disappointed .... but the miracle happened for real!

We felt so guilty for all the disappointed tweets that we've have sent to her,
But at the same time...these tweets helped us to see her ... and..she came early just for us ;__;

She's a wonderful woman, so small and tender ;____; I LOVE HER SO MUCH

I'll post my photos this evening!

I read your story and i felt the emotion in your words!!! Awww if only i could go to Londonnnn...!!! Ayu rocks!

He looks hot.

[emi♡]

^hell yeah he does

[Yoake]

I met Ayu on 19 november too. I went to London with CeReSu.

I was so impressed that I lost my English (even my french I think) when it was my turn. I have an autographe on my Mirrocle Word single. I chose it because it's the first single I bought. & I have one on the RnRC photobook.

When we took the pic, she hugged me. My heart beat so wildly that I thought it would be able to stop. I think she feel it & she patted my back friendly. It was like a dream. She's so sweet & cute.
& After I looked my hands. They were shaking so much!



I had hoped that Timmy was in London too. & It was so I took a pic with him. He's really kind

That's really cute. I'm happy for you, yoake!

[minamitan]

Guys, she's meeting the fans tonight!!!

[thesweetseason]

Gah. Would have gone, but my last coach depart at 8:55am. I'm going to go tomorrow for a couple of days. I wish I had weekends. It seems more likely that she comes out during the weekend.

Edit: I'm leaving tomorrow, arriving at about 1. Going home again on Friday at 4. Will anyone be there in between those times? I don't think my iPod can last that long!

[mcken200]

Zomg do you know what time she will be there ?

[2Hurt]

^ She said in the evening so from 6pm til... night?

[Mami-chan]

My experience was already described by Kagome-chan ^^
I can only say that I had so many things to tell her but when she appeared in front of my eyes my mind went completely blank and I couldn't say anything else than "Sorry" and "Thank you". I was shaking so much and I was about to cry. But she was so cute and sweet... ç__ç

Here my pics:

Spoiler:

[AyuGAME]

^OMG!!! AYU!!! SO KAWAIIIIIII!!!!

[Mai82Go]

Good for you, Mami-chan! Fluffy Ayu in your arms and all.

[Not~Yet]

I hope more and more people will still get to meet her and post their stories and pics, it warms my heart seeing them. It feels so surreal you get to meet her! She looks really sweet and lovely too.

^And lol I can't help but wonder how it would feel like to be Ayu and have my friends wear shirts with my face on them just casually It's nothing strange to her obviously but still.

[ExodusUK]

Is Timmy's shirt merchandise?
