Finkster Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I never posted on a forum before, or even joined a fanclub before. I never met a musician I looked up to. I never won a contest. I never made so many new friends in such short amount of time. I've never seen anything like Mika, or any of his fans before discovering Mika. I never watched a musician grow in popularity, character, or musically at all before Mika. I only listened to Classic Rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kittie88 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Before: - Bored and sick of life -Seemed like I had a bleak and boring few years ahead of me - was getting sick and tired of all the stupid music being released these days!! - felt lonely -didnt belong anywhere After: - I am a lot more positive about life in general - I am always on MFC and feel I really belong here - Found recent music which I LOVE (Mika!) - Have a fantasic 2008 ahead of me - have done many things (like go to London on my own for a mika gig) which I would not have done before! - I feel a lot more confident in myself -Made loads of friends of which many I will be meeting in Feb - Have made one great friend in particular who i will hopefully be meeting up with in summer as well as at the gigs in Feb! - Have a better awareness of life and feel like I am really living life now! So, in general, finding out about MFC and Mika was one of the highlights of 2008 and I am a much better person who is happier and more content in life!

HollyD Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Before - * I was lonely and listened to nothing BUT Queen pretty much. * I missed Freddie to a point that was almost unbareable. * I was searching for something that could never be found. * I wasn't LIVING but rather simply existing. * My wardrobe was as dull as my outlook on life. * I was in a slump - the daily grind of work, home, work, home. * I was generally melancholy. AFTER - * I am NEVER lonely. I have made SO many life-long friends. * I still miss Freddie dearly - but my heart is not so empty any longer. * I found something more precious then gold. * I am LIVING life to the FULLEST. * I love to explore my fashion sense now, which just so happens to be quite colorful. * I listen to Mika all the way to work and it brightens up my day - great start. * I am ALWAYS happy, smiling, cheerful, and friendly!!!! ...and also the day that I met Mika - REALLY my whole life did change! I also met my BEST FRIEND and soul sister that day! Mika makes me happy in ways that cannot even be expressed! He is beyond the most amazing miracle that has ever occured!

celien Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I have had two very difficult years but my life changed a lot last year! and it was at that moment that I heard for the first time of Mika, so Mika means a lot to me, it's like I had a life before Mika and I have my new life! Before: lonely insecure and shy I HATED school no driving license No musician I looked up to I wore boring clothes had not really a best friend never signed up in a fanclub/forum I couldn't sleep because I was thinking of my problems very unhappy After: I have a lot of new friends! I’m not shy anymore, I don’t care what other people say about me and I’m much more optimistic I went to college and now I like going to school I have my driving license I'm fan of a musician I look up to My clothes are changed a lot: more color and more me I have a best friend Signed up in a fantastic fanclub/forum Don't sleep a lot because I'm too much on MFC Redecorated my room like I want HAPPY!!!

iadoremika Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 Good idea for a thread:thumb_yello: Okay here's me: Before Mika: - a was probably a bit more self concious - didn't get into music as much (even though I love music, I didn't venture out and check out new artists a lot) - got a good nights sleep After Mika: - have become a bit more self confident - love to check out new music/artists now - don't get enough sleep *cough MFC cough* - relate as many school projects to him as I can - have a new obsession...hehe - 2 words...LOLLIPOP GIRL!!!

I <3 MIKA!!! Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 before i found out about mika:thumbdown:... - i judged people WAYYYY to much - i wasnt myself, i always tried to be like everyone else - i would only listen to music that was popular at the moment (ex: anything on z100, even if i didnt like it i would force myself to listen to it to fit in) - i wasnt creative - self conscience - less open, and didnt express myself after i found out about mika:thumb_yello:... - i am much more excepting of people and I DO NOT JUDGE PEOPLE YAY! - i am completely myself whether people like it or not, i am who i am - i am much more open to new music and finally listen to music i actually like even if no one else at my school likes it - i am much more creative, i LOOOVE to draw now - i am no longer self conscience of what i look like and i am not worried of what other people think or say about me - WAY more outgoing! i was really outgoing before but not in the same sense, then i was more outgoing as stupid outgoing and being fake happy to draw attention and crap like that now its full on outgoing, dancing in the middle of the cafeteria, letting my hair go crazy:punk: singing at the top of my lungs in the hall:bleh: this last one i am not proud of AT ALL! this has really just hit me this past week and this was part of the reason i havent been on as much, for the past few weeks i have realized how little i have been spending with my friends, and i felt that i was drifting away from them and that i wasnt connected with them any more, yesterday i got a call from my bestfriend and she told me how i am becoming totally isolated with all of this mfc stuff and how i am spending way to much time on here and not with any of them... i didnt know how to respond, cuz i know i cant leave the mfc! this place really brought me out of me and made me sooo much happier in the sence of excepting who i am as a person and being who i am and not giving a s**t, and i didnt want to tell her that it is hard for me to hang out with them any more because i cant relate to them any more... its like when i changed they stayed behind, i dont watch the same shows as them, i dont listen to the same music, i dont think the same guys are hot, i dont like the same movies, and they are all clickish and talk behind peoples back! so for those who havent figured out what the before is it is: -had lots of close friends and the after is: -is slowly becoming disconnected from friends because of the mfc:tears: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

findingmywords Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 I simply.... can't remember life before MIKA. As obsessive and insane as that seems, it's true! What did I do when I didn't have Mika? There was no MFC, and no MIKA, no LICM, no concert videos to reminisce on, no Live in Cartoon Motion... What did I do after school? Do... homework??? Sit??? Be Dead???!! But seriously, I really can't remember what I did before I knew about him... Now, Mika has put inumerable amounts of life in me, and I'm just scarily and hauntingly happy all of the time... I have amazing day dreams about MIKA and all of you guys coming and picking me up at school and going on an adventure on a bus and hanging out with him. I have something to talk about when the conversation gets sketchy and boring, and I feel full.. And my self esteem and confidence has gone up tons, I'm more outgoing, and now I wear what ever I want and don't care what others think. He has influenced me tons.. Now I just spontaneously combust with random smiles and jitters and stuff, when I replay an interview over my head. I can't imagine what it would be like if I wasn't a MIKA fan. Seriously, what would I have now? My family and friends always, but nothing in the middle that I can love. But I have that now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humpfree Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 yayy this looks like fun. ok so before mika -I felt very alone. I knew what i believed in but i seemed to be the only one... -I was very ignorant. I didn't really know much about other cultures or other places. -I wore all black and i wanted to paint my room black -when people were rude to me, i was rude back -I was very rude to my mom. despite all the nice things she did for me. -I was VERY angry. -I'd never really travelled much and I felt very stuck. Like i was going to be in utah my whole life without any other options. after -I found a sense of inner peace. -My eyes were opened to the world and I saw all the different places I could live and all the different people i could meet. -I started learning french! -I went to san francisco:mf_lustslow: and learned that i didn't know how to read a map... -I met many new friends. -I introduced other people to mika and watched him change their lives. -Basically, I just became more comfortable with myself and my surroundings -I also got closer to my mom. - I watched the "impossible" become possible. 2.08.08 =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
