Hey guys! My name is Amanda. I am all the way on the right in green. I never thought I’d be writing a Bieber experience. EVER. In a million years. Here’s my story. A couple of years ago I almost killed myself. I had plans to do it, and reason’s why I wanted to do it. I was bullied. There were a lot of family problems. I was just like ya know.. I don’t wanna live anymore. I got diagnosed being bipolar and I had to go to a treatment center to get help. I didn’t like it at all. I felt like I didn’t belong there. A couple of years later I was still having problems. Going in and out of different treatment centers, trying to get help. I then began drinking and smoking, and going down the wrong path. But then I eventually stopped when I found a peace with God. In February of 2011 I saw “Never say Never,” Justin Bieber’s movie. The whole time I was watching it I was completely starstruck. Everything about him just made me smile. The weird thing was, it wasn’t his looks that did it for me. It was his faith in God and how much he believed in Him. His mom became my hero and his whole team just made me smile. What they do for people just makes me wanna do good things for other people. That night I began buying posters, CDs, I attacked my wall in purple marker with all of his lyrics. I just felt like a connection with him, I couldn’t even explain. It was a peace I found with God and Justin at the same time. My family didn’t understand why I loved him so much. I think it was because honestly he was the only artist ever to help me keep believing in God. The only artist that made me believe in myself and who I was. I think the time that I really found hope was when his acoustic album came out. I completely fell in love. I would just sit in my room everyday with it blasting. I would have my eyes closed and I would sing along with little harmonies because I’m a singer myself. On December 5th 2012 I met Justin at Philly’s Jingle Ball 2012. I got the tickets and the meet and greet from a family friend. After praying for an extremely long time it was finally happening. I never thought it would happen because my family doesn’t have enough money to buy meet & greets or buy tickets to his concert. The fact that this was happening I couldn’t even breathe. I was going to tell him how he changed my life. Little did I know this dream would be shot down. I got in the meet and greet line with my sister and they told us that they had to put us in a group of 10. I was devastated, only because I knew I wasn’t going to get to stand next to him. Then the one lady pulled me and my sister in the room by our wrists and pushed us in there. Justin came out. We got in the line for the picture, posed for the photo and then I was pushed away from him. I couldn’t even say how I really felt. I couldn’t even thank him, or say hey. It was all too fast and I felt disrespected by all the workers from Q102. I cried after the meet & greet because I thought I would never get another chance. I am very thankful I got the chance to be in the same room as him and see him in concert. I’m never going to give up hope that I’ll meet him again – only without the guards pushing me away. Where I can have at least 5 minutes of me explaining to him how he affected me in such a positive manner. I love him with all of my heart. Justin I hope you see this and try and contact me! I love you beliebers. Never give up hope. We are a FAMILY and always will be. – Amanda Go here to read the rest: Hey guys! My name is Amanda. I am all the way on the right in…
