My School Crush and Freddie Mercury
Hi everyone! I've been listening to David Bowie since I came back from school. He's amazing. His voice is so calming. Music is a kind of magic. Talking about 'a kind of magic', I'm a big fan of Queen. I've been their fan since 2012. It is impossible to explain how much they mean to me. I don't want to say 'they saved my life' because it sounds a bit weird for/to me, but they are so important for/to me. I started writing my own stories because of Queen. I found wonderful people thanks to Queen. Okay, I'm going to stop it right now because I don't want to cry. Do you want another story? Even if you don't, I'll tell you. ^^
How did I start listening to Queen? It's such an embarrassing story! Of course it is. All my stories are embarrassing. All my life is embarrassing.
I was 13 years old, and I fell in love with a guy. Sounds like a bad start, doesn't it? So, I found my prince's VK (it's like the Russian Facebook) and started stalking him. He turned out to be a big fan of music. He was in love with Radiohead and The Doors, Scorpions and Queen. Now I'm absolutely in love with all of these bands, but when I was 13 I had no idea about them. Well, I heard a few Queen songs, but who didn't? So, guess what? I decided to start listening to Queen because I wanted to impress him so much. He was one year older than me. We studied at the same school, so I could see him every day. What did I do? Every time he passed by me, I turned on played 'We Are the Champions' on my telephone. I hated this song so much, you can't even imagine. What did I think about would happen?
'Oh, he'll hear this song, think that my taste in music is perfect, and then we'll hold our hands and a pink unicorn will take us away,' I thought. Of course, he didn't care about a crazy girl which who stalked him while 'We Are the Champions' was played in the background. My heart wasn't broken because I didn't like him very much.
Once I decided to watch Queen's live show to understand why my crush loved them so much. I found the video, probably it was 'Live on at Wembley Stadium'. I saw Freddie Mercury for the very first time, and it was so strange. I had always thought that Queen's frontman was that curly-haired(?) man with his red guitar. I was so impressed, I can't even describe it. I forgot about my school crush. Freddie Mercury became my new crush. :D
Gosh, I love Queen so much.
After all this time? Always.
It is 2:30 AM on a Saturday night/Sunday morning and I am correcting entries on italki. What has become of my life? u.u Well "correcting" is a harsh term in this case, more like just making minor suggestions and desperately looking for mistakes that aren't even there because YOUR ENGLISH IS JUST TOO FREAKIN' GOOD. :P
I may be near dead from exhaustion and enebriated enough that I can't spell that word properly, but I still wanted to correct and comment on what you wrote for some... *cough* unexplainable reason. ;) This is by far your best entry English-wise yet. It would have been your best entry period, but I'm not a big Queen fan, personally. xD (And before you yell at me, remember that this is a public setting. You gotta be nice to me. :P)
Great, after the night I've had and now this note from you I will have "Fat Bottomed Girls" stuck in my head until I mercifully pass out. u.u Well it's worth it to read one of your fantastic stories, thanks for sharing. ^^ I am anxiously looking forward to the next silly story involving you and the seemingly endless amount of boys you once had a crush on... or you know, whatever you decide to write about next. :D
