This is the story of my VERY unexpected 2nd Bieber experience. It was a Saturday morning, July 16, 2011. I had just returned home from a vacation trip with my best friend, Paige Ito (paigeito2) and her family. I was so exhausted since it was 3am when I returned home that morning. My Mom let me sleep in but woke me up in time to remind me that it was Jeanine’s wedding day. This was an “adult only” wedding and no children were attending. Jeanine decided to invite some of the older cousins which included me. I debated whether to attend the wedding or stay back and watch my three little cousins so my older cousin could go since I was so tired.  After discussing what to do, my Mom suggested that I go and said I would have fun since my other teenage cousins were now coming. I said okay and off to Malibu we go. We arrive to the wedding and it’s the most beautiful, perfect day ever. There were only four of us teenagers (cousins) that were invited. As the night progressed the DJ announces that it’s time for the cake cutting ceremony. So everyone heads over to the opposite side of the dance floor. While the cake ceremony is going on, my Mom, cousin Alyssa, cousin Marisa, my Aunt Cece and like four other random people I didn’t know (including this mustache man behind me..lol) were on the dance floor. My cousin Alyssa and I were excited to have the dance floor to ourselves. We were like finally! KID TIME!! We spoke to the DJ and gave him the sign that it “was time”. Time to play some JUSTIN BIEBER!!!  We had already talked to the DJ prior to this point about playing some Bieber songs and he assured us he would play them. So the DJ starts us off with “Baby” and we start jamming out. I asked my Mom if she would record Alyssa and I dancing and she was like sure! Since the cake ceremony still appeared to be going on the DJ plays another song for us it’s ”One Time”. We were like YESSS!! The DJ saw that we are having so much fun and hands me the microphone . I was a little embarrassed but Alyssa and I were like who cares, lets sing this thing!!! No ones really paying attention to us. haha.  No one prepared us for what was about to happen.  While we were in our own little world singing and dancing I feel this person dancing behind me and I KNEW it wasn’t Alyssa. There were only “adults” at this wedding so I immediately think it’s “mustache man” who was dancing directly behind me. It scared me SO bad that I instinctively jumped back…like NO mustache man, get out! lol. I look, and its freakin’ JUSTIN BIEBER!!  If my calculations are correct this would make a total of about 10 heart-attacks that boy has given me if that’s even possible. In my mind I was like “again?!” “How are you here?!?!” “What’s happening?!?!” “WHATTT?!?!” Did Ellen set this up???. I said “Oh my God!” and put my hand over my mouth.  He scared me so bad! He was like “Ohh, hey”…all casual like no big deal…and gave me a hug. My cousin Alyssa starts screaming. Justin says to me ”How are you”. I’m like “ummm uhhh ummm good” (why cant I just answer him back like a normal person? haha). He like casts this spell on you and I become this speachless person that I’m so not. Trying my hardest to keep focused,  I continue on singing because Justin looks at me like “Keep going”. Justin then starts to dougie! I somehow pull myself together and dougie with him. By this time everyone at the wedding had received the memo that Justin Bieber had crashed the wedding and they start crowding around. Selena was there cracking up on the side. The DJ then plays ”OLLG”. I try to give Justin the microphone and I think he was embarrassed because he didn’t want to take over the party. We laughed then  I asked him, “What are you doing here?” He was like “We were just strolling on the beach and we heard someone singing my song”. I was like “Really?.. You came to my house, remember?”. Justin said ”Ohh yeah, you’re Paige!”. I was like “YEAAA!”. Then being the respectful person he is, Justin asked, “Have you met my girlfriend?” He smiled. He lead me through the crowd and introduced me to Selena.  There she was even more beautiful in person and so so adorable. I hugged her. Then she says, “We heard his music so we came”. Then we stayed with Selena while Justin walked over to congratulate the bride and groom and pose for some photos . We kept talking with Selena. Everyone seemed really happy to see Justin and Selena. Being respectful Justin says, “Thanks, we have to go now”. Selena and Justin smiled and waved good-bye to me and Alyssa. The whole wedding is in complete shock. Seriously, what were the chances of that happening? Like 0 to infinity? Alyssa and I run down the hill to the wood fence facing the ocean. We threw our hands up the the sky and yell, “THANK YOU GOD!!!!!”. We continued screaming and laughing our heads off. My cousin Alyssa lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico. She is also a huge Justin Bieber fan and never thought she would ever meet Justin. She ended up needing her asthma inhaler because she was crying so hard and couldn’t breathe. I was like Alyssa, just take deep breaths! (I learned that method on Ellen). This was clearly a case of being in the right place at the right time. What if I didn’t go to the wedding? Would anyone have played any of Justin’s songs?  It was a crazy, very unexpected night. I go home to think about what had just happened. The only thing I could think about was how happy  Justin made everyone, my family, my little cousin and me. He makes people so happy and who does that?! What other freakin famous celebrity does that? Just Justin. He is seriously one of the most amazing people in this world. He continues to show me how bad I want to live out my dreams and how bad I want to make everyone I meet happy. I think about this experience and feel so very very blessed and thank God everyday for my life, my family and my friends. I really do hope that all Justins fans get to meet him someday. He is everything you imagined and then some. I think I would personally be jealous of someone who had the opportunity to have two huge experiences to meet Justin, but I know I would be the first to say to them, I’m so happy for you because that’s what Beliebers do. We should be happy for each other and share our experiences together . Who would of thought Justin and Selena would ever crash my cousins wedding that day? Ya not me but I’m sooo glad they did! -@paigeconway2 Talking about the wedding on  GMA More: This is the story of my VERY unexpected 2nd Bieber…
