Hey guys, this is my Bieber experience. It seems so surreal to look back on something that happened just a couple days ago and realize I met such a huge part of my life. I met Justin Drew Bieber on 21/2/2013 at Manchester MEN Arena with meet & greet tickets. A lot of people think to get meet and greets, you have to be rich but you don’t, I started saving for my tickets before Christmas 2012 to make sure I had enough money. I worked 4 times a week and saved every penny I earned. It doesn’t just come from nowhere. On Thursday, the day of the concert, my mum drove my friends Lizzie, Molly and myself down to Manchester which is over a 4 hour drive from where. When we arrived at around 11:45 a.m. we booked into our hotel which we could see the arena from and dropped our bags in. We headed straight for the Lowry Hotel where Justin had stayed while on the My World Tour hoping to catch a glimpse of him (he didn’t end up staying there which kinda sucks). While we were there, we happened to catch sight of Cody Simpson getting off his bus and he waved over at us. At around 2:30 p.m. we headed back to the hotel to get ready to book in for the meet and greet at 4. We waited in the queue before getting our wristbands to meet Justin. While we were waiting to be taken the waiting area we saw Kenny and shouted his name. He looked over, smiling big and waved at us! At around 5:20 p.m. I heard the voice of an angel call, “I’m here!” from behind the curtain and I could feel my eyes starting to water. I couldn’t cry. I wouldn’t cry and just be ‘another fan’. I made loads of conversation with the host while we were waiting and he promised to give Justin the scrapbook we made him. We waited at the curtain and I could see Justin taking photos with the people before us, so I went to put my bag down but the guy taking the photos said, “No, keep your stuff” even though we’d just been told to drop them haha. I was first to go over to him and said, “Hiya” and he pulled me in for a hug and said, “Hey.” That one word literally made my stomach do flips! Then my friend Lizzie walked over and stood on Justin’s other side, giving him a hug. My other friend, Molly, was the last in and went over to say hi but just stood in front of him all cute and shocked. I mean, I get it, it’s Justin Drew Bieber. So Justin showed her where to stand and said, “Right here, right here,” smiling. He then made sure we were ready and said “Ready? 1, 2, 3.” Then the camera clicked twice and our turn was almost over! We quickly shouted, “I love you!” to Justin and he called back, “I love you too.” HE LOVES US. As we were leaving I’d noticed that Fredo was standing next to the photographer so I shouted “FREDO! HI” and waved at him really big even though he was literally touching distance away. He waved and smiled back and wait for it.. HE FREAKING WINKED AT ME! My eyes widened and the smirk on his face, omg. Then we all left the meet and greet room and I literally just burst into tears. I was like sobbing for a good 10 minutes then we were led into the arena where we could take our seats. The concert was unbelievable. We saw Dan Kanter watching Carly do her thing from the side and he smiled at all of us in our section and when Carly was on. Justin was perfect and the amount of times he looked over at us can’t even be counted on two hands , it was incredible. You can see how grateful he is in everything he does, you could see he was tired but he pulled through like a trouper and I’m so proud to call him my idol. I can’t say that Justin pulled me to the side and kissed me on the cheek or that I hung out with the crew for like half an hour but I met my idol and I got a photograph with him – which I never thought would happen. It’s easier for me to say you’ll meet Justin when I’ve already met him but I promise you, if you stay positive and believe that you will meet him, you will. 21/2/2013 – the day I met Justin Drew Bieber and all of my dreams came true. -Lauren (@lbiebergarrigos) Continued here: Hey guys, this is my Bieber experience.
