Chapter 2: The Search for the Last Fusion Ticket
Seeker: Stonelady
Day: 14 & 15
Good Afternoon everyone,
I wasn't able to post an update yesterday, I was at work all day and had a DJ gig after, by the time I got home it was way past midnight and I had to get up early today to go to work again

. So I really didn't find the time. That means, today is gonna be a double update

!
The past 2 days have been uneventful Ticket-wise but that does not mean they weren't interesting!
Thursday I was basically down all day. What I didn't know then, but do know now, is that I was having a migraine - one of the bad ones too. I tried to push through, but could barely look at screens, let alone feed myself. How I didn't realize it was a migraine? Beats me

.
Thursday was not just pain and suffering though (lol), one of the people reading this blog actually sent me a message and offered encouragement

! That honestly made my day!
I'm sure you guys feel it too, the Ticket-Search feels so lonely sometimes. Between countless forum posts filled with emojis, someone typing "up" or just copy and pasting the same message over and over again, you start feeling like you're the only human - that you are the only being made from flesh on this search

. It sounds ridiculous, but have you heard of the "dead internet theory"? The forum reminds me of that a lot.
Hearing from someone else that's currently searching and going through the same struggles made me feel a lot less lonely. And they said the same thing - reading my posts made them feel less lonely. It gave me a sense of purpose on this search


. Not only am I looking for a ticket, but I can also inspire others while doing so. That was truly amazing to realize

.
Yesterday, I still had a mirgraine (which I still hadn't realized at the time). I went to work and tried my best to watch the forums closely. As I'm watching the forum I get an adrenaline rush - someone had just posted a ticket! I rushed to send a message, in less than 5 minutes the post was already flooded by people looking for a ticket. I tried regardless, with a more personalized message, not just copy & paste. After I commented, I looked at the post again. All of a sudden a post offering a Ticket had been changed to a post looking for one. Offering the Ticket was simply a tactic to get people to engage with it

. It was frustrating. I edited my comment to say "Nevermind, someone must have changed their mind.", but Nevermind was not the right wording here. I DID mind, so many people got their hopes up. In the end, the poster just edited the post to only say ".". I'm assuming they must've gotten a bunch of messages, why they did that is still beyond me though

...
I also took Tonys advice and tried to be less of a stranger on the forums again. I posted a question, which I was super nervous about. I asked about karaoke at the festival. Karaoke is my favorite thing to do. I received some help and will definitely look for karaoke spots when I make it to Fusion! Who will come sing with me

???
Other than that I ended up rushing to my DJ gig after work. That's when I finally realized I was having a migraine since thursday. The lights there made it so much worse. But I powered through and had a great night regardless! I played 80s and 90s music, not my usual, but I can adapt

.
That's it for now, thank you for everyone that's reading this little blog. I appreciate all of you! Sending love and positive energies
