We all have that one dream that we desperately want to come true, don't we? I know I do, my name is Clementine Meadows or at least I've made it to be. My real name on my birth certificate is Amelia Rogers, I never particularly cared for the name my parents bestowed upon me, so I changed it in high school. But I should get back to the true point in this, description, or explanation, whichever. My dream is to be the merch girl for Sleeping With Sirens, I won't lie it mostly has to do with being close to Kellin Quinn, my one and only true love. But also to spend Warped Tour with a band I love on a tour I've felt I was meant to be on. Only I don't get exactly what I wanted. No, instead I'm stuck with some no name band, from Tampa, Florida. I mean who gives a damn about Set It Off? Who are they really? Does it matter? Of course, by the end of the tour, I'll learn they'll be more to me than I ever expected.
Set It Off is a real band, as well as each of the band members, Cody Carson, Austin Kerr, Dan Clermont, Maxx Danziger, Zach Dewall, as well as their wonderful tour manager, Andrew Cramb.
I would like to point out, that none of the guys are they way they are made out to be in this story, they are not jerks, actually they are the opposite, there wonderful and huge sweethearts. So I am being melodramatic for the story, as well as making the character out to see the guys how she wants to see them.
There are many ways for everyone to talk to them, or listen to them.

You can find all of their personals for each of those websites, I won't put those here, as there are many, but they are very easy to find.
Writing a memoir at only fifteen years old has taught me a lot. Giving me the time to reflect on the lessons I learned the hard way and the mistakes I've made thus far. I learned, if there is at least two sides to every story, there is at least two sides to every person. What could be a smile is a broken heart in a deeper reality. We all live in a society where nothing is as it seems, the people being more complex and astonishing than the countless novels we read. And in a world ruled by tragedies, we are the survivors. Getting through our own history, more important to us then what we read in school. We take our story one page at a time, word by word because in the end, it will all be worth it.
I dedicate this memoir to the people who have been with me on my journey of self discovery, even if only in spirit.
Mom- Who has made non stop sacrifices to ensure my happiness and well being. Nothing would be possible without you!
Grandma- Who has inspired me and made a huge influence to the person I am now and who I'll be in the future.
Callie- My own personal slave, illustrator, editor and full time best friend. You know I love you <3
Ariana Grande- My celebrity inspiration, showing me that it's ok to "love who you love, no one can judge, follow your heart and don't give up", getting me through the long and lonely nights. Be sure to buy her new album "Moonlight", hopefully to be released this year and her new fragrance "Ari" in accordance to the "Be You" campaign.
Adam Young (Of Owl City)- My first artist I listened to, your songs make me think of the past and the new adventures to come.
Sam Tsui- The album "Make it up" taught me to not be scared of not knowing what's going to happen next. Being young and naive Isn't necessarily a bad thing, as it brings way to new experiences, to be vulnerable and crying doesn't make you any less of a person. That we're all human and it's ok to embrace it.
