More Fansites...

My AC article has been copied onto several other fan sites, and even though it's without my permission, I cannot be angry or even begin to think about trying to ask them to take it down, not this article. This article was written for the love of writing, and writing about Tokio Hotel. And to share that love.

But I've been reading the comments on those sites and I am so very touched and happy by what they've written...the majority written by teenagers...and I can't be bitchy after reading those.

Besides, it's a huge ego boost to read my article in different languages...Russian, Italian and Spanish so far, the Portuguese site won't open yet...and read the comments. It's funny as well...I wrote "smack on the forehead" like you'd do if you realized you'd made a mistake...and it gets translated as "kiss." Along with "stripped down" in reference to Monsoon...which becomes "undressed." Too funny.

But for the most part, everything comes across as I intended...except also for "arrogant guitar of Tom" in the Italian site. Not what I meant at all (I think it was powerful...I don't have the article open and surprise! I don't have it memorized) and I have no way of going back and getting them to understand. But it's the Italians that want to hug me...lol...and the Russians are very complimentary about the article, but don't want to hug so much.

And...and...and... my name is on the same page with pictures of Bill!!! Yeah, I know, I can do that myself, on my own blog or whatever, but to have it
happen randomly out there in the big universe of the internet makes it more special somehow.

And, as always, it makes me smile...inside and out. Really big smile. You'd think at this age, I'd be so over acting like a teenager :)
