My name is Alice, I’m 16 turning 17 and I live in Brisbane, Australia. Let me start by saying I’ve never won any amazing prizes before. Before this event, I was convinced I had the worst luck ever. On 26 th June, 2012, I received an email informing me that I had won a Meet and Greet with Justin . I couldn’t believe it, so I called Universal Music to double check and when JB Hi-Fi announced it on their Twitter, that’s when it hit me. Finally I was going to meet my idol after dreaming (literally) about meeting him countless times! Days and nights of excitement and joy passed by and the 17 th of July, 2012 finally arrived. I boarded the plane to Sydney knowing I was meeting my idol in a few hours. After checking in at the hotel, my sister and I went to the meet up location for the secret show Channel V was hosting. I met so many amazing beliebers there, like Marie and Amelia (@BornToSing17); we were all so excited, people were crying, screaming and hyperventilating. After what seemed like forever, we collected our wristbands and got driven to the secret location. When Justin came on stage, I kept thinking “IS THIS REAL LIFE? IS THAT REALLY JUSTIN BIEBER?” He performed Baby, ALAYLM, Die In Your Arms, AATW, Be Alright, Boyfriend (Bluesy version) and Catching feelin gs for the first time ever live! I remember crying when he sang “Be Alright,” it’s my favourite song from the album and I couldn’t believe I was hearing Justin sing it live, less than 2 meters away from me . All I can say is that losing my voice was so worth it. Justin sounded absolutely amazing and Dan played the guitar perfectly. After the show, the majority of the crowd had to leave and people with blue wristbands were allowed to stay for the meet and greet. My heart dropped when they told us we couldn’t ask for any autographs and that we were only getting group photos taken. I felt so disappointed knowing that I couldn’t get an individual photo and that I won’t have any time to speak to Justin. But our time came, I ran up to him and he gave me the best hug ever. He said to me something along the lines of, “H ey sweetie, how are you?” and “It’s a pleasure to meet you” I couldn’t even respond to him because everyone was rushing, but he had his arms around me for the photo and it was the most amazing 30 seconds of my life. Everything was really rushed so I quickly got another hug before security told us we had to leave. I finally understand why so many beliebers say that he gives the best hugs ever. The next morning, we went to see Justin perform on Sunrise at 5am which was also perfect. He smelt amazing, looked flawless, sounded perfect and was just so, so sweet. You can tell he was genuinely happy to be there for his beliebers. I still can’t believe I was physically next to Justin jus t yesterday, b ut what can I say.. Never Say Never, right? For those who have yet to meet him, just dream big and believe; I promise you’ll meet him one day and it’s going to be worth the wait. And Justin, if you’re reading this, I hope you read my letter (all the beliebers gave everything to the girl collecting gifts when we were in line for the m&g!) and I promise I’ll be there when you come back to Australia for BELIEVE. Words cannot describe how much I love you and how much you mean to me , but thank you so much for everything; you made the 17 th of July the best day of my life so far. Thank you for existing, haha. Much love! -@xalicehuang Continue reading here: My name is Alice, I’m 16 turning 17 and I live in Brisbane,…
