I
was hooked on “Baby” and I remember exactly when and how it happened. I was
visiting a friend in Denver, CO one weekend and we drove to Boulder for the
Bolder in Boulder 10k event. (Was that confusing? Read more Celtics
Jersey slowly.) We had so much fun that by the time we were ready to drive
the back to Denver, it was already 3 a.m. One of my friends was already passed
out. The other was a noisy drunk who sat in front of the car to give me
directions because I was the one sober enough to drive, even though I was not
familiar with the freeways.To keep us company, she played a CD, which I thought
was a complete waste because all she did was rewind and repeat two songs from
the whole Justin Bieber album – “One Less Lonely Girl” and “Baby.” Needless to
say, we got home and I had almost memorized the lyrics to “Baby.” The next
morning, I had a really bad case of LSS (last-song-syndrome). Actually, I was
humming “Baby” until a few days after I arrived back in Los Angeles. But, I
didn’t consider myself a Belieber. I thought it was just a fun song to sing with
a drunken friend.Still, when I heard a few months later that Bieber fever was
hitting Southern California in a concert, I sent an email blast to my girl
friends, asking if we could all watch it. After all, we had just purchased
tickets to the Usher concert a week before. I was certain if they were in for
Usher, they were also going to be in for JB. I was wrong. I only got one reply
back from the five emails I sent out: “Are you serious?”So, I asked my
sister-in-law to watch with me instead. She had just gone to a Taylor Swift
concert and I thought Taylor Swift and JB had about the same appeal. Apparently,
I thought wrong. “There’s a difference. Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber ARE
different” she said. “Why don’t you ask Mel?”Mel was my 15-year old brother. I
wasn’t keen on taking my teenage brother to the concert because: a) I might look
like a mom taking his son to a concert; or b) I might look like a cougar out on
a date. It was only one of two things. But I really wanted to watch and I
thought surely he’d want to watch, too. He has been trying to grow his hair and
practicing how to flip it sideways. But when I excitedly told him, he just
looked at me like I was asking him to jump off a cliff.I felt really bad that
nobody wanted to go to the Bieber concert with me. But that was just that. I
wasn’t a Belieber, I just thought it would be a fun concert to watch.After I had
gotten over “Baby,” I got a call from Manila, asking if I wanted two tickets to
the “Never Say Never” World Premier. I thought it still wasn’t the same as
witnessing JB in concert; but it would be interesting to watch this movie about
his life and rise to super stardom. And luckily, this time, I had someone to go
with, Lizette. She has been going with me everywhere because she’s been pushing
me in my wheelchair since I fractured my left foot last month. And she wasn’t
just someone to go with, she was actually, a Bieber fan!Days leading up to the
preem, she kept giving me the low down on how excited people were about the
movie. She asked me though, why 3D? “Is it like MMK (“Maala-ala Mo Kaya”) but on
3D?” I was thinking the same thing! Most 3D films I’ve heard of were animated.
And it actually posed a problem because I get really dizzy with the
glasses.Nonetheless, I colored my nails purple the night http://www.ebostoncelticsjersey.com
before, to prepare for the event. Seriously! Anticipation was building. People
were tweeting about the movie and the premier. I found myself getting excited,
like I was teener again!On the day of, we had to rush because I had a live show
that ended at 5 p.m. in West LA and the purple carpet arrivals were set for 6
p.m. in Downtown LA. It was a cold night, too. But Bieber fans and friends did
not mind. They were crowding the carpet area, right on the street. From a few
hundred yards away, I could hear the screaming. It was insane! The main road was
closed and the remaining open side streets were congested. We were provided a
parking pass which meant we could park for free; but it was in a structure
behind the Nokia Theater where the movie was being screened.I commend customer
service at Nokia Theater. Once we entered, the attendant asked if I wanted to be
escorted to my seat because I was in a wheelchair. But she also gave me and
Lizette some “party supplies” – a glow stick and the 3D glasses. There were free
drinks and popcorn, too! I did not attempt to go even near the purple carpet
anymore. I knew it was going to be dangerous. Fans were wild for the celebrities
who showed up – Selena Gomez, Will Smith and family, Chris Brown, will.i.am,
Sean Kingston, Miley Cyrus, http://www.nba.com Anna Maria Perez de Tagle,
Usher and kids, and more. “It was non-stop celebrity arrivals for two hours,”
Filipino American photographer Sthanlee Mirador said on “Kababayan LA”. For more
purple carpet highlights, check out e off after a few times you would have worn
them. If you find them loosely attached on the shoes and you feel that they will
fall off in no time, don’t purchase the pair.When inside budget shoe shops be
aware of the styles being offered. Most of the time the styles being offered
here are no longer in fashion and outdated. Though you may think that you are
getting a good deal for the shoes, you still might not wear them since they were
last year’s style.I’m not telling you not to buy from these discount outlets.
You decide if you want to buy budget shoes. Just make sure that it is worth for
what you are paying for.
