When I found out Justin was coming to Hong Kong on Friday 13th May 2011 , I was freaking out. My family has always been supportive of me when it came to being a belieber , and went to all extents to help me see Justin, including flying me over to Singapore to watch his concert there. (Where I cried for 30 minutes straight because it was the first time I saw him in the flesh). I was really afraid that I wouldn’t be able to get good seats at the concert, but all my worries were swept away when BieberFever, the official fan club, posted a link to the PRE-SALE! Right away, we bought the VIP tickets, which put me in the FIFTH ROW!! Suddenly, I realized if BieberFever were already promoting the Hong Kong concert, then there must be Meet & Greets passes that could be won! After lots of hard work and sending all the screenshots/video in, I prayed for days. The day before the concert, I checked my phone before classes, in between classes, any time I was free for the email. During recess, I took out my phone, and I saw an email from Brad Haugen, entitled “Congratulations, Bieber Fan!” At the time, my two best friends were with me. I screamed so loud that the teacher next door had to shoo me outside, and my two friends rushed over to see what had happened. By lunchtime, half of secondary already knew about the news that I was meeting Justin Bieber. Other fans got really envious, non-beliebers somehow became beliebers, and those who didn’t hate or love Justin just congratulated me and kept telling me NOT TO CRY when I saw him. The next day, we got our purple wristbands! We were told that we would only get a picture and we weren’t allowed to give him anything or ask for an autograph. As I walked up to Justin, he extended his hand out to me and smiled at me. “Hi.” I wanted to hug him and never let go, but I knew that I needed to control myself. I shook his hand instead, “Hi Justin, are you feeling better today?” His hand was warm and his voice was gentle. “Yeah, thank you!” , as he put his hand on my waist (almost like a sideway hug!) We smiled for the camera. At that moment, all I could think was, “OH MY FREAKING GAWD!! HE’S TOUCHING MY DRESS!! AHHHH”, but I didn’t say it out loud. After the photo, Justin put his hand on my back gently as the security escorted me outside the room. I walked as slowly as possible, saying to Justin as I left, “Thank you Justin, I love you so much!”. As Justin said, “Thank you!” I broke down again! Outside the room, I bent down and cried so hard I couldn’t breathe. As I came out of the exit, about 50 fans waiting outside screamed as they thought I was some kind of VIP. A friend from my school shouted, “Chantel!” and all I could manage was “I JUST MET JUSTIN BIEBER!”. The concert was amazing too, sitting in the 5th row. I’m pretty sure Justin was looking at me quite a few times throughout the concert! To all you beliebers out there- NEVER SAY NEVER. If my dream can come true, so can yours.
