Tilly and her parents, she paid for my tickets (I paid her back) and her parents took us to the venue and Tilly also came with me on this amazing experience.
I also want to thank Callum for this (and the next) blogpost idea. COPY RIGHTED BY CALLUM. Happy now Callum.
I would like to thank my friends Beth and Kira for also sharing this amazing experience with me!
Just talking about this brings back so much nostalgia, it was such a breath taking time.
Meeting Alfie (a.k.a PointlessBlog)
Getting the tickets was very stressful and emotional, Tilly and I were on twitter talking about how we couldn't get tickets or her and her mother were having problems with it, I got quite upset but I was kind of okay with it because I'm used to things like that happening, about 20 minutes later I get a call from her. She was quite for a few seconds, I then hear "We're going to meet Alfie!" There was silence on the line for a few seconds. I then stupidly said "Oh my god, are you sure." If I could go back in time, I wouldn't say that, of course she's sure! What was I thinking! Anyway, she said yes then we both just cried, we were so happy that we were going to meet someone we have spent years watching on YouTube.
The journey there was exciting and nerve wracking. The conversation in the car was nothing but Alfie and how we all were actually going to meet him. We got at the venue at about 10:00am and the book signing was at 12. We had to stand outside for about half an hour then they started letting people into the room where Alfie would arrive, me and my friends were lucky to be in the first 50 people because we saw Alfie arrived and I have the whole thing on camera. When he walked in everyone screamed (he vlogged it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxqQgOwFPwA, you can't see me or my friends in the vlog because we were right at the back.) Me and my friend Kira cried. We then all waited, talked, cried and of course took loads of pictures!
When it was finally my turn to get my book signed I attempted to take a selfie with Alfie but I was shaking and more interested in getting him into the picture than getting myself in. When I took the picture Alfie said "Oh, you didn't get yourself in that picture, take another one!" after he said that I internally screamed! He is so nice! If you ever get the chance to meet him, do it! I am going to try my best to meet him again and take my best friends Lauren and Meg.
On our was out of the building (while we were all crying) a security guard told us to breath properly before going down the stairs in case we fell over and hurt ourselves. The whole event was every organised, safe and so much fun!
On our way back home we all just cried and thought about what just happened. We all looked at our signed books and at all the pictures we took and spoke about everything!
For my next blog post I'm going to talk about the time we (Thalia, Kira and Beth) met Zoe (a.ka Zoella)
