Rakel -
I am totally glad that I found your site, and I'm pissed that it took me so long to do so. Let me just say, it is so nice talking to a fellow Lifehouse fan out there! Here's a little somethin' about myself...
I live in northern Virginia in a city that's 2.2 sq miles wide... I know, I know, it's awful. I am a junior in HS (17 yrs old). The first time I heard Hanging by a Moment, my jaw literally dropped. I remember I was in my room, listening to WHFS99.1, and I could not believe what I was hearing.
I mean, it was so... amazing! It was soon after that that I bought the CD, and upon exiting the store I immediately ripped the plastic off and popped it
into my cd player in my car, not knowing at all what to expect. I preceded to drive down the road home, but I had to pull over. I know it sounds stupid and corny, but my eyes were literally filling up with tears! It had been such a long time that I had heard truley beautiful music! Well, needless to
say, the cd has stayed in my car ever since, except for the half hour that it came inside so I could make two more copies to have in my room and the
bathroom (yes, it's pitiful, but I sing along with Jason in the shower). I feel like I have so much to say about them and so much to thank them for. I
mean, they literally changed my life.
I had been in such a deep state of depression, and Lifehouse's music actually lifted some of that from me. As of now, I am completely off medication (yeah!) and can go on leading a happy, normal, sane life because of Lifehouse. Sorry if I'm boring you....
Oh, just another side note that was kinda funny: On prom night, my date and I ended up renting a hotel room to chill in after the dance. Around four in the morning, we started... ya know, fooling around... but the tv happened to be on in the background. I had been so concentrated on my date that I wasn't paying attention to the television. But as soon as I heard
Cane from VH1 mention "Jason Wade from Lifehouse", I sprung off of my date, screamed so loud that we got a call from the front desk, and glued my eyes two feet from the tv set so I could watch them (for, of course, the millionith time). My date wasn't too happy, though. He hasn't really talked to me since them... ahh well, who cares?
Fellow Lifehouse fan,
Caitie
