Trying to remember my Zhou Mi moments for as long as possible~
But I think I already forgot most of them Q___Q
This is really LONG.
So, the 1st day - BR standing, the very first row. There were seven Russian ELF, me included.
I watched TV version of SS4 Osaka, and I specially tried to remember the intro for Perfection, but at the show I completely forgot how it sounded.
And when I heard the first riffs of "Perfection", I was startled and excited, I desperately started to jump or something, trying to see where Zhou Mi is and and I saw him. He was dancing near BL section, and he never stood near our BR side, but honestly, I couldn't even process the thought that I'm seeing him with my own eyes. That I see Zhou Mi dancing in his ridicilous outfit, being so hot and manly man, oh dear...
Thank God I'm tall so I could see him even from BR~~~~
When I heard the intro for Goodbye, I literally ran to the corner of our sector, and cute J-ELF girl grabbed me by my hand and placed me firmly before herself. "Zhou Mi!", she said.
I heard his voice. He sounds sick, really, though he still sings beautifully, but it hurts so much. Especially knowing that he's spending time before going onstange on IV drip... I said once that I wish he did "Miss Chic" or something, to spare his voice, but.. But I am too selfish, because I loved every second of listening to Zhou Mi voice.
He just stood there, tearing my heart to pieces with this song, I couldn't even cry. I thought I would, but forbid myself doing it. I held up my fanboard, but Mi was looking to the left all the time. I was a bit upset that he didn't see me, but then I decided - okay, tomorrow you'll definitely see me, Mr. Zhou~
The song ended too fast, the lights went out, everyone cheered. And then, when Mimi was still leaving the stage, out of impulse we started chanting ZHOU MI - ZHOU MI - ZHOU MI - ZHOU MI, we actually were doing it alone in the whole arena. Maybe he heard. I hoped so.
At the ending when Mi and Henry came out, we cheered again, I was so happy to hear his lovely and adorable English, this "fans are like weather here, so hot" (and facepalming), then he sat down.
For a second I regretted not going to AR/AL a bit, but then Destiny started.

Honestly, I watched some fancam and somewhy I was DEAD SURE that Zhou Mi stands at BR during Destiny. So that's why I was convincing everyone to book BR for the 1st day.
Zhou Mi started walking. We become EXCITED and cheering and waving, and he waved to us and pointedto himself and then to our zone, that he's going to stand there. I was like Q______Q ;~~~~~~~~~~; OH MY GOD HE IS GOING TO BE THERE JUST BEFORE MY EYES
He stopped at BR, and then Donghae walked by, looked at my fanboard and our EXCITED OMG-THIS-IS-ZHOU-MI FACES, smiled and walked away, and Mi gave him some little tug/poke/whatever it was and smiled.. in such a way that I CAN'T LITERALLY CAN'T
I didn't scream or something because it's... um, stupid? We just called his name from time to time, and he smiled and waved, and bowed, and... I don't know, these feelings inside me. That we made him happy, and I made him happy and smile. This is seriously the best possible way of sharing love and giving back.
I remember when he just got near us and waved for the first time, he gave me a cute roundish wave, it was so cute that I felt like crying. ><
And he stood there, wobbling from side to side and holding the mic OMG SO CUTE AND ADORABLE
Ira or Cats, I don't remember already, asked me - was he the same like I imagined? And I said - yes, totally. Exactly 100% like I imagined, like a living and walking fancam. With the difference that he sees you, smiles at you geniunely.
First he nodded at me, with such expression, I felt like crying again Q______Q
and of course, when he thumbed up at me, and then counted us and thumbed up at me again and SMILED...
like,
"you are and your friends are too" - like, reporting xD Precious Zhou Mimimimimimi Q___Q
Seriously, I couldn't get enough of him, his waves, his smiles, his eyes.
This all ended in a flash, he saw girls with Mario plushies - so adorable actually, I squealed when he caught them and then was carrying them around like babies ;~~;
I stared at Zhou Mi during water games, and when he started walking around the arena, I wondered briefly - can it get any better than this?..
When he finally reached BR, I was there with my fanboard again, and he bowed to me and smiled.
;~~~~~~~~~;
what are you doing to me.

Yesterday I found the fancam with this moment... burst into tears. This was a magical night. And it was just the first show, and I actually didn't expect much.
But what happened, it was surreal and I still can't believe that it wasn't a fancam and I saw it happening before me, and actually, I made it happen too, we all made this happen.
Because I read oishitakoyaki's fanaccount, and she wrote that BR WASN'T supposed to be Zhou Mi's section.............. most likely, it was supposed to be the Donghae's section.
....................I didn't even THINK about it. And it all started to fit like a puzzle - why Donghae was following Zhou Mi, their cute interaction, and and and and DO YOU UNDERSTAND - Zhou Mi changed the position because of us. Because he must've seen my fanboard or heard our chanting after his solo... or he spotted us in the end, - I don't know when, seriously, but he stayed with us, with seven Russian ELF. And one Mitang.
Honestly, when we ran to the line for BL for the next day and I called Cats, and couldn't get through to Ira, I just stopped and sat down and tried to convince myself that it was real - it didn't really help xD
Then we walked around the night Impact Arena with my Key, talking and crying, it started to form inside me, the exact feeling of reality and utter happiness.
On the second day I stood in BL. And it was, like, Zhou Mi was dancing Perfection RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. A bit away, of course, but I could see every little movement, watch his gestures and expressions, and.. his dancing is so cute and funny, it has some weird elegancy, I can't really describe it, but it's amazing to watch live. And at some point he.. kinda... looked at me and smirked. They don't usually avert their eyes from the front, so it was like an electricity joint. A split second again!!! But.. OMG it was so so so soooo awesome.
And then, Goodbye again.
But this time, in front of me.
And he looked at my eyes and sang.
I can't describe what it feels like. It's so meaningful, it's something natural and like, something that was meant to be. Something I dreamed about, and something I never thought would happen. It also was just a second or two, but his gaze really fixes at you. And he sings for you.
He's amazing.
For Destiny he stood at BR again, though I hoped that maybe he will change again~ I was a bit upset, but then he found me in the crowd, across the whole huge stage, and nodded and waved.
..............;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~;
When he ended the walk and stood on the main stage with other members, something special happened too.
Before that, Sungmin got Olympic Bunny from our Sochi girls and a small Russian flag. Shindong took the flag from Ming and was confused - I think because of the coat of arms at the back. And Shindong was standing there like - o_O - and fiddled the flag, and Zhou Mi was next to him, he saw it happening and just momentally leaned down to him saying something, looking at the flag too. Ah! I want to know what it was ;~~; But I was so happy, even seeing Zhou Mi and our Russian flag next to each other...
Zhou Mi, of course, knows about Russian fans but he never was spotted with anything Russian in hands, or saying Russian etc. He was probably the most "faraway" member from Russian ELF.
(the only reaction was his UFO in.. March or October Shanghai concert? when awesome girls from Baidu sent him UFO "do you know that Russian fans were at the concert?" haha)
But honestly, I was happy with the second day too, but the first was definitely better. And I wondered, if the third day can be even better?..
We had sitting for the 3rd day. Quite frankly, I think that I wouldn't mind spending 3rd day in standing, but sitting brought me great and different emotions.
We had SL, 6th row, that I booked myself (and still don't understand how the hell I managed to do this xD because 18th was TOTALLY SOLD OUT, it was hard getting even standing...)
Was there a project for Mi solo? I had only Rainbowland sweethearts' project (it was so nicely done!! Not just a paper that rips and crumbles, I liked it a lot~), and didn't see anything else ;~~~~;
but we had fanboards and handmade uchivas (xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD)
So I just watched and watched, trying to remember every single detail, but failing at this hard.
Perfection again, the solo... knowing that was the last time I'm seeing him in a very long time (and will I ever see him again?..), it was heartbreaking, and I cried a bit.
But. There is a really big BUT here.
We couldn't meet him in the airport and weren't stalkerish enough to stand at Dusit, so - we had to give Zhou Mi our present, our handmade notebook with wishes from Russian ELF.
Girls tried to to this at the 2nd show, they were at 3rd row of sitting, but Zhou Mi didn't see them or something - but they managed to give Sungmin Olympic Bunny. SO - I was really worried, what would be more effective, giving the book to girls in standing or try to pass it myself.
But I decided to do this, so that in any case I wouldn't have to blame anyone but myself.
AND. He threw the Mario plushies back to the audience at the 1st show, so I was - DDD: - what if he throws the present too, or staff will pick it up.................
and we didn't have time to find any cute wrapping, SO WE BOUGHT COLORED PAPER AND SCISSORS AND TAPE AND GLUE IN 7-11.............................................
I wrapped the book to orange paper, sitting at food center, and wrote in big letters PLEASE, KEEP THIS! DON'T THROW! FOR ZHOU MI! etc
..................seriously, I was facepalming so hard, but I didn't have any choice xDDDD
I also glued the forum's card to the wrapping, and after some thinking, wrote "from Alisa" :3
okay, so the main question was - HOW DO I PASS IT FROM THE SIXTH ROW? xD
of course, I had to go down to the aisle.
But a lot of people want to go down too xDD
So I waited, and I noticed the great opportunity, when people left the aisle and only 1 row of Thai girls left. So I grabbed the book, my fanboard and ran down. After I got to the 2nd row, I heard footsteps behind me lol.
Well, considering my height of 176cm, I felt like I'm at the 1st row haha xD
And then Destiny started.
And then he walked by AR standing.
And then he caught our Olympic Bear and RUSSIAN FLAG.
AND NEVER LET IT GO.
;~~~~~~~~~~~;
I thought I'm gonna faint right there because, because....... Russian flag in his hands.
Zhou Mi came again to BR zone~ and SL is right in front of BR, so, of course, he saw me♥
And I had only one chance, when he was walking around the stage.
He finally reached the turn to our side, and started waving to BR. I was already pushed to the first row.
And I just prayed in my mind - please, turn around, don't walk away (lol but OF COURSE YOU WOULD TURN because a Mitang is standing there... that's how precious you are)
So he turned around, but he was already a bit far away, and saw me extending my present for him, and I'm calling him and gesturing that this is for him, this is the present. He had the cutest expression, curious and excited, like 'ooooh!! a present? for me?! :>" - so he went to me.. and reached his long hand. Unfortunately, the space between the stage and railing is really huge Q_Q so
I barely could pass the gift and couldn't even touch his hand (I wanted to, of course..), but I HAVE LONG ARMS TOO so I safely passed the gift to Zhou Mi♥
He bowed and smiled and continued walking.. AND WAVING THIS RIDICULOUS ORANGE BOX because his other hand was already full of presents.
omg, I can imagine him laughing his non-existent butt off when he read the signs on the box xDD
He also picked up big bear plushie near SM sitting.
And he didn't throw any present he got on last day.
but I still feel bad that he didn't keep Mario plushies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111 :<<<
All I ever wanted - that Zhou Mi will have anything I made with my own hands - became true~ that day we spent with Hyung making this cover... xD yes, it was so worth it.
And giving the present myself is the best feeling ever.
Of course I knew that the moment he gets my box, he's never going to throw it away or just give it to the staff. Zhou Mi will never ever do this, and this is one of the reasons we love him so much.
All attention I got from him, it was so magical.
I'm not saying that I'm special or what.
I'm just one of his Mitangs, but this is exactly what makes me special in his eyes, like every person who supports him.
but yes, I think that he was definitely even more happy that Russians support him~
maybe he recognized some of us from the birthday video?.. ah, I wouldn't be surprised!
It was also so weird to finally get the Christmas card he signed for me in Korea, by Ira's request. Like a symbol of a dream that became true.
"To: Alisa"
Someday I will hear you speak my name, I know.
So... this is my three days of miracle.
I love you baby, and I'm never gonna stop(c)
-----------------
um, okay, the bonus xD
about interaction with other members :D
I think the first member who saw us was Siwon. He saw our "Russian ELF" fanboards and towels, did his Siwonface - O_O - and thumbed up.
After that, we don't like Siwon at all xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
he was making Sungmin go away from our sector, and okay, maybe he thought we don't like him - but we do!~ we just don't scream like insane teenage girls okay <_<
Then, Hyukjae was running by our zone, and when he saw us he did O_____O - really, even Photowonder can't make his eyes THAT big xD
Ryeowook saw us too and even smiled at me! :D
Yesung.. well, I trolled Yesung a bit xD
after his solo on the 2nd day, he did this high note like a boss, so we were standing there and thumbing up to him, and I guess I had the most "I APPROVE" face, 'cause he smirked at me, like, "pffft, of course I'm the best, bish"
xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Kyuhyun is a little ГАДЯ, but I still love him, I honestly don't remember if he looked at me or not, but I don't care. He is so beautiful and his voice, and he's so amazing♥
Shindong was trolling us a lot xDDDDD and um, he has REALLY nice legs.
Donghaeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Really, Рыба is sfjdhe3yr7893yrueghfkdhfsfrdfrglhre because he took Elf-A's towel, shook her hand and blew kisses to her (OF COURSE he remembers her from Korea xD), and was always waving and looking, and the 3rd day was unbelievable for AR standing xDDD
my favorite moment is when Zhou Mi gave Donghae the rose.................... Donghae went and gave it to Russian girls.
xDDDDDDDDDDD IDEK
Henry had so little time onstage Q___Q but he saw us everyday, and waved too♥
his solo was breathtaking.
and he also took our towel♥♥♥ HERNYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
okay, now moving to the ultimate Russian-lovers.
SUNGMIN. What ARE you, really. ♥
Always waving, smiling, and this reaction when seeing the towel in sitting... ah!♥
He was doing aegyo all the time, playing with the audience, Ming you are so silly! :D
Спасибо большое and я люблю вас.. любылю бас. Q____________________Q
and, last but not least.
Leeteuk. Oppa. The only one Old Oppa for me♥
His feelings towards Russian fans are precious. He really, really and geniunely loves us, notices us, respects us. We talked about it with Ira, and I think that (aside the good reputation of Russian ELF that we created) that small letter helped a lot. We said the right words when he needed them.
And we love our Oppa.♥
For every and each Спасибо. We also can't get enough of them.
Thank you for being so attentive, Jungsoo oppa♥ Maybe something in our eyes makes you closer to us? Makes you reach to us? To smile wider, to bounce harder?
I don't know the reasons, but everytime Leeteuk smiled, waved, jumped and bowed - really bowed, so deep - I wanted to cry and laugh and hug every person in the world. Special oppa♥
when he was crying hard on his knees, I was just across him, I felt tears in my eyes.
You are precious♥ Thank you. Spasibo.

And thank you, all of you, Super Junior.
For my 2.5 years of being ELF - and still counting~
and thank you, my wonderful Russian ELF♥
