I’m Julia, I’m 16, and from New Jersey. My Bieber Experience started June 15 when Justin was at The Today Show. I got to the city at 12 am, just to see him perform. I had hopes of possibly having a chance to meet him, but I was unlucky. As my friends and I were walking around the city afterwards, he tweeted about a signing at J&R the following Tuesday and we had to preorder to get our wristbands! We took a 2 hour walk there and got the wristbands, being told we were in the first 200 people to get it. I couldn’t believe I was actually going to meet Justin. Fast forward to Tuesday morning. I woke up at 4 in the morning and got ready, and my mom drove us to the city. We got there at almost 6:30 in the morning and there was already about 25 people in line with there wristbands so I got in line right behind them and waited for what seemed forever. As hours passed, the lines got longer and I was thankful I was in the front. Then 2 pm came. I had knots and butterflies in my stomach. I was so nervous, I had no idea what to say and I still couldn’t believe I was finally meeting my idol. They were running a little late, as Justin being the kind, amazing person he is, was with a cancer patient having a special meet & greet up stairs. At almost 2:30 they allowed some people in. As we were waiting for Justin to come downstairs, Ryan and Alfredo passed by the line. Alfredo was waving to everyone and I screamed, “HI ALFREDO” and he turned around and said “Wassup!?” I couldn’t believe he said something to me. Shortly after, Justin came down stairs and walked to the platform where the table was. The press and paps was everywhere, and all of a sudden Justin left. Everyone was confused, and as the pap started to leave we understood, Justin didn’t want them there. He wanted time with US. As I was getting closer Alfredo walked past again and came over and shook my hand and said hello. I must say Alfredo is one of the coolest people I have ever met. Anyways, before I knew it I was 10 feet away from Justin. I couldn’t believe it. He looked perfect, absolutely flawless. But seeing him gave me confidence, and I suddenly lost the butterflies. I walked up to the platform and handed him the CD/booklet. Instead of grabbing the cd, he grabbed my hand, and looked at me and had the biggest smile. Having that eye contact while he was holding my hand was amazing. I said hi, and he was like hello and smiled again and signed the booklet. I looked at him and asked for a hug. He looked at me and I jumped up on the platform and leaned across the table and he stood up and hugged me. Having him in my arms for 3 seconds was amazing, the best feeling. I told him I loved him and I thanked him. Right after that the security yelled at me and made me leave, so I’m not sure if he said anything back. As I was leaving, I was shaking as I held the CD in my hands. As I was one of the only people who got a hug, I was interviewed, but I was in such as loss of words. I couldn’t even explain the feeling. I never in a million years thought I would have met my idol, the person I look up to the most, and would be writing my own experience. After 3 years of supporting him, going to concerts, trying to find him in the city, and believing, it happened. Never Say Never guys, always believe, because one day everyone will have their own Bieber experience. – @juliaadams3 Go here to read the rest: I’m Julia, I’m 16, and from New Jersey. My Bieber…
