So, I'm going to skip some parts of my life to get to the best thing that has ever happened to me- finding Fall Out Boy.

It was a few days before my 13th birthday. I was watching a Chicago Blackhawks game (I'm a huge hockey fan- cussing, punching, skating, fighting, great music at the arenas- what's not to love?) with my dad. 

At this point, I was new to hockey- I had only watched about 5 games, and it just happened to be during the Stanley Cup Finals against the Boston Bruins. During an intermission, I heard this song....it just sounded really good.

My brother, the musical "expert" of the family happened to be walking through the kitchen at the time. I asked him what the song was and who the band was.

"Yeah, this is Fall Out Boy. This is 'My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark'. They're a pretty good band. They've been around for a long time."

And I was hooked.

I was just a normal girl before these four beautiful men stole my heart, a few days before the beginning of my miserable teenage existence (okaaaayy,I'm exaggerating- it's not that horrible. But it's not so pleasant. And it's not so conventional. It sure as hell ain't normal. But we deal. But that's also for another chapter.).

Fall Out Boy has been one of my greatest influences musical. More than once has my life been saved by their music. 

Now, I must say something immediately- if you don't like Folie à Deux, just leave now. Because that's one of my favorite albums and I will seriously hurt you.

Not kidding.

*If you're still reading this shit, comment "falling apart to halftime". If you made it this far, congratulations- you're probably brain-dead.*

Well, that's all about FOB for now- trust me, there's more coming. And there will be pictures. 

You're welcome.
