tv girl and the captain said i do!!!

June 30th 2012 is the day my beautiful cousin (tv girl) married her knight in shinning armor (the captain)...sit tight folks cause im about to recap the whole event!!!

My hair debacle that morning set me back about an hour but i managed to get ready with one minute to spare!...my family piled into a couple of cars and we were off to the church...i was getting a little nervous because tv girl asked me to do a reading...im not really a fan of speaking in front of people...and to make matters worse, only about an hour before i got a text saying my reading was changed...so i had absolutely no idea what would be waiting for me...oh boy...

We arrived at the church and the ceremony started not too long after that...tv girl looked absolutely beautiful...her dress was perfect for her in every way...i loved it!!!...my reading came up pretty quickly...my 2 sentence reading turned into a full typed page...it was long!...i stumbled over a few words but i got through it...and the people said i did a good job...im glad i didnt mess up and ruin the whole thing...the relief i felt when it was over was great...i did it!...phew!...haha!...the rest of the ceremony went on without a hitch...well the mayor and tjd filled in to present the gifts because the guys who were scheduled to do it were stuck in traffic...but other than that nothing went wrong...the ceremony was beautiful and father frank did a really excellent job!!!

After the ceremony was over we headed over the the woodbridge hilton (where the reception was being held)...we stopped at quick check on the way to buy snacks for the room...did we really need to get donuts and chips? Probably not, but we got them anyway and they were delicious...haha!...anyway...when we got to the hotel we had just enough time to bring our stuff to the room and freshen up a little before cocktail hour started...and yes i stayed at a hotel 10 minutes from where i live..haha!

The cocktail hour was great...i dont remember all the specific foods they had but i do remember that it all tasted good!...i spent most of my time chit chatting and eating...i think i told everyone about my big time skype call...haha!...hey, it was fresh in my mind because it happened the night before...haha!...i was able to see tv girl and tell her how gorgeous she looked...and i saw the captain and welcomed him to the family...they really are just the cutest together!!! <3 p="p">
Next was time for the reception to get started...table 15 was where it was at!...#woohootable15...haha!...im pretty sure i sat in between tjd and the princess...but i could be totally making that up...haha!...before all the entrances happened i took a few pictures of the cake and the lighting and the center pieces and all that stuff...the cake was beautiful...i LOVED the cake toppers...the groom was captain america because that is his all time fav character (hence the cool blog name of the captain...haha!)...the center pieces were great too...she found these really awesome candle holders in different sizes that looked vintage and she put them on top of a mirror and put some flower petals around it...they really came out great!

The reception started off with all the intros and then moved into the first dance...they were so cute!...next came the mother son dance and the father daughter dance...the captain and his mom were great...very spunky...as for tv girl and her dad, i absolutely LOVED it!!!....they started off with somewhere over the rainbow and then out of no where it changed to the twist!!....omg! Sooo much fun!!!...it was such a great idea...its so good that i may have to steal it if i ever get married...unfortunately if i did i would have to find someone to play the part of my dad cause theres no way he would do it...haha!...

Another fun thing about this wedding is they had a photo booth...they put out all kinds of props and people could just go over there and take pictures all night...yeah, we took a lot...some of them are really funny!...here, see for yourself!...

Pretty much the rest of the time we danced the night away...as soon as we were done eating i was out of my seat dancing...we did the cha cha slide and the cupid shuffle and my new fav the wobble...and we danced to call me maybe and i want it that way and all kinds of other songs!!!i didnt stop at all...well except for when i stepped on glass...yeah, that happen...AGAIN!...haha!...i dont know why im laughing...stepping on glass hurts!..but at the same time it is really funny that i did it again...i guess some things never change...huh?!?...haha!

Something else that didnt change is gg caught the bouquet...but this time tjd got the garter...not the mayor...of course there was a mirror and they were totally aimed for but thats besides the point...haha!...after tjd put the garter on gigi the dj made them switch places and gg had to put the garter on tjd!...very funny!!!!

Sadly the night had to come to an end...boo!!!!...i for one had a blast and didnt want it to be over!!!!...tv girl and the captain certainly know how to throw an amazing party!!!...i just want to take a quick second to thank them for including me in their special day...i love you guys!!! <3 p="p">

nothing's ever easy

As i mentioned earlier the morning of my cousins wedding i went to get my hair done...just the standard highlights and trim that i normally get...but why should i have expected things to be standard?!

Everything started off okay...i got caped up and my hair dresser loaded my hair with foils...and then i sat for a little bit while my hair was cooking...just before the timer went off much louder ringing started...it was a fire alarm!!!...at first everyone thought it was just a drill...but no...it was a real fire and the building needed to be evacuated...whaaaatt?!?

So i grabbed my bag and headed for the door...yep, foils and cape still in tact i ventured outside...haha!...something to note about the location of my salon...its inside a big gym...so there was probably about 100 other people standing outside...all of them staring at the crazy girl with foils in her hair...good thing i dont embarrass easily!!!

After we got outside all the people at the salon started to panic a little bit...they had to get the bleach out of my hair before any damage was done...so they found a hose...yeah, thats right a garden hose...so they pulled all the foils out, i bent over and they hosed me down...well just my hair but still...it was pretty funny....haha!!!

I think most people would have been mortified at this point...but like i said i dont embarrass easily...i just couldnt get over how funny it was...i was i had pictures of the event to show you but i didnt take any...it would have made this short story so much better!!!

Big Time Skype Call

I WON A SKYPE CALL WITH BIG TIME RUSH!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Two weeks ago btr tweeted something along the lines of this is your last chance to tell us how youre celebrating windows down...so i replied i celebrated by writing a blog post about you, check it out here...then i sent an email to some of my friends kindly asking for a retweet...i said hey guys i know im not gonna win but can you do me a favor and retweet me...it would still be cool if they saw it...they all complied and that was that...i didnt really think about it too much the rest of the day...cause i really didnt think i would win...

It was another busy day at work so i left late...missed my normal train...and had to run for the next one...which is a super local so im not really a fan of it...my mood was decreasing rapidly when i got on the train only to find there were a bunch of hot cars (broken ac)...so the cool cars were extra crowded and i didnt get a seat...i found a spot to stand and grabbed my phone to text little sis...thats when i saw the little twitter bird and saw "whats your skype name?" scroll across the top...i gasped and my heart dropped...omg!...was that it?!...did i win?!?...i tried to open twitter but there was no service in the tunnel...i almost went into a panic...i needed to know...i was expecting to see a message from some random person and then feel silly for freaking out for no reason...but when twitter finally did open there it was...a direct message from big time rush telling me that i won!!!!!! Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!....i started shaking...i couldnt believe this was happening...my next step was to actually get a skype account (haha!) And send them my user name...

The call was originally scheduled for 1pm on friday...of course i couldnt sleep at all Thursday night...and when i got to work on friday i found it extremely difficult to concentrate...sometime during the morning i got another message saying they had to reschedule...i felt like that was the first time i was able to breathe properly all day...haha...i was thinking they were gonna put it on a different day all together...so i relaxed some...then later in the afternoon i got another message saying 6pm...not ideal but i figured i could just stay at work late and then get to the lmfao concert i was supposed to go to a little late...nbd...but the panic started again...in just a few short hours i was gonna be talking to big time rush...omg!...haha!...then i got yet another message saying they meant 6pm pacific time...9pm east coast time...oh no! the concert!..it was decision time...i thought about it for all of 5 seconds and decided that i would miss the concert so i could go home and be ready for my big time skype call!!!

I set up little sis' laptop in the dinning room (the only place in the house that my mom would allow us to go) and patiently waited for their call...the whole time i was waiting for something to pop up and say oh this is all a joke but that didnt happen...they signed on to skype at 9:01...they called me at 9:11...LONGEST 10 MINUTES OF MY LIFE!!!!...haha!...they are all right there waving to me saying hi...i couldnt believe what was happening!...they started things off with a dance party!!!...it was a little tough to join in because we were in the dinning room...but i did my best sitting down dance moves!...haha!...i thought that was a great way to start things off because it kinda loosened me up...dancing is fun!...it def relaxed me!...

After the dance party we started chit chatting away...james was in front of the camera talking and asking us questions...it was great...he asked if we were going to the show...we said of course we are, we're going to 4!!! (Please note that i have added 2 since then...haha!)...we listed the places...he said a little ridiculous but i approve!...haha!...then are said so what else is going on...i said i was working all day...so we talked about that for a little bit...carlos came running over all excited...then carlos asked how old we are...27 and 23...again carlos was very excited about this answer!...i believe his exact words were "YESSSS! I like it i like it!"...at this point kendall and logan came over and were like wait how old are they?!...i think they appreciate the cougars!...haha!!!

Next james asked if we had any questions...i said omg i have so many questions!...haha!!

Which character do you play as in mario kart?
Carlos: peach
Kendall: his mii or the turtle (koopa)
Logan: mario
James: yoshi
Next we got into a discussion about yoshi because yoshi is my guy!...james says yoshi is the coolest looking character but hes not the fastest...i said it doesnt matter cause he has really great acceleration speed so you can jump out in front of the crowd...then they wanted to know which one of their miis i would play as...i said i dont know! what are your speeds like?...logan said mines the fastest...so i said i like fast but does it handle well?...he said yeah yeah its got all that..then james said they made mine the best...it was pretty funny watching them fight over whos was the best...i said i dont know ill have to try them all...i really am torn...i mean how could i not pick kendall but at the same time he didnt fight too hard...and i kinda feel a little bit of loyalty to james...we both like yoshi the best!...haha!

What are your fav football teams?
Carlos: brazil...no carlos american football!...haha!
James: chargers
Logan: steelers
Kendall: no answer
Next we called carlos out for wearing patriots gear all the time...haha!

Will there ever be a big time rush cruise?
they all laughed!!...haha!!!...we said come on, it would be so much fun...everyones doing it like new kids and backstreet boys...kendall said so you want us to be followers, just because everyone else is doing it we have to do it too?...we said yeah!...haha!...then they said that there is a nickelodeon cruise so that kinda takes the place of a btr crusie...then we were talking about all the cool things a btr cruise could have...like theme parties and games shows...and then kendall said oh we could have a dating game!!..we said YESS!!!...we also mentioned that we would get an awesome cabin and be front row for everything!!...at some point they also mentioned that big time cruise would be a great episode!!...so if that happens in the future, you're welcome!!

will there be dancers on your tour?
they said yeah, us!...you're lookin at 'em!...then kendall said i want to ask you a question...he said how do the fans feel about dancers? will they get mad if theres four girls grinding up on us?...i said i personally like it, ive been a dancer my whole life so i appreciate dancers...but there are a lot of girls do not like it...they get mad and are like ewww get those firls off the stage!!!...i said it really depends on the fan...they said thank you!...they really seemed to take into consideration what i was saying and it seemed like they really appreciated my opinion!...

if they won a skype call like this one who would they want it to be with?
kendall said like a euro dj...no one specific...just any euro dj...he thinks that its so cool that they play beats in front of huge crowds at clubs every night...he said it would be cool to talk to one of them...
logan said this comedian paul rudd, you probably dont know him...i said please, of course i do!!...he was pheobes husband on friends and he was in i love you man and hes sooo funny...i love him!!...so logan was like whoa, threw him arms up and walked away...but he came back dont worry...haha!!!...im not sure why he was shocked...i mean how can i not know who paul rudd is?!?...

next it was time for our goodbyes...boo!!!...kendall asked us again which shows we are going to...we told him and said make sure you remember our faces...we will be there with our cougar rusher shirts on!!..haha!!...he told us to make sure we look for ranel (their bodyguard)...he seemed very adamant about it...so you best believe i will be on the hunt for him!!...i wonder what will happen if i find him...oh the possibilities running through my mind are endless...haha!!...

then they all blew us kissed and said good bye to us...the call lasted 11 minutes and 47 seconds...and it was AMAZING!!!...i still cant believe it happened...and i dont think thats a sentence i will ever stop saying...

Thats all for now...ill be back soon with big time skype call!!...see ya then!!! =)

I heart big time rush!!!

Hello blog family!...its time for another post in my "i heart..." series!!!...today i want to talk about big time rush!!! WOOHOO!!!!!

As i've mentioned before, and i quote (is it weird to quote myself?!...oh well im doing it anyway!...hahah!!)

 "my obsession with big time rush is getting out of control...its a slippery slope and im happily sliding down it with both hands in the air yelling weeeeee!!!....haha!!!...i cant stop thinking about them or listening to their music"

 ...that was a couple of months ago and things havent changed since then...well maybe its gotten worse...proud COUGAR RUSHER right here...haha!...

Ive been obsessed for a while but I thought now would be the perfect time to write this post for a few reasons...1) season 3 just started...b) they have a brand new single out...and iii) they are having a contest to see how fans are celebrating most creative gets a skype call from them!!!! Excuse me while my inner 13 year old freaks out just a tad! Eeeeeekkkk!!!!!....i need to win that call!!!!...haha! ;-)

So lets talk about what makes KENDALL CARLOS LOGAN and JAMES amazing enough to make me completely forget that im about 5 years older than them...haha!

First there's the music!...they have 2 albums out and a bunch of b sides and bonus tracks...there arent any songs that i ever want to skip...they are all so good...my fav changes based on the day...they have great dance tracks and amazing ballads and everything in between...all of their voices are top notch...they even wrote a bunch of the songs on their second album...their new single WINDOWS DOWN is so good...its definitely a super awesome summer song...if everyone isnt jamming to it in their car with their windows down then thats a problem...haha!...the video is great too...4 cute wet shirtless boys hanging out in hawaii...i mean come on...what more could a girl ask for?!...nothing!!!...haha!...oh, you need proof?..okay here it is...straight from the big time rush vevo page...enjoy!



Next theres the tv show...omg...it is hysterical!!!...like i said before they just started airing season 3 so if you have never seen an episode you have a lot too catch up on and i recommend doing so a sap!!!!...i like to watch it on the train/subway....there are times that im laughing so hard i get dirty looks and have to cover my mouth...i would list some of my fav parts but theres just too many...there are gems in every episode...for instance in the latest episode they have an official document for the rules of dibs, violators had to run a half mile threw a crowd in their undapants!! haha!!!...the best thing about the show is it doesnt matter how many times i watch an episode it never gets less funny...

Point number 3...they are so freaking cute!!!...no need to really expand on this point...its pretty self explanatory!...haha!!!

And finally the last thing im gonna talk about today (but not the end of reasons why btr rocks my world)...hmmm...how should i put this?...lets call it their spirit...yeah, that sounds good!...their spirit and positive attitude is so contagious...when i watch interviews of them on tv or youtube or where ever i cant help but smile...they instantly make my mood better...they are so fun to watch...the way they joke with each other is great...and i love how passionate they always are...i love it...it makes me want to hang out with them...they also seem so nice...not fake nice but genuine nice...which is rare these days...not just in terms of celebrities but in terms of everyday people too...its refreshing to see that they have this quality..

Oh wait there is one more thing...their live concert is AMAZING!...as far as concerts goes it takes a lot to impress me...and they did it...they impressed me big time (sorry i had to! Haha!)...i was so impressed that im going to 3 (possibly 4) concerts this summer...this jersey girl will be traveling worldwide for these cute big time rush boys...im going to hershey, dc, toronto and i have schemes in the works to go to seattle...i cant wait!!!!....this tour is gonna be epic!!!!!...if youre gonna be at any of those shows look for me...ill be the crazy old lady in the cougar rusher tshirt...haha!!!!...here's a few pics for your viewing enjoyment from when i saw them in las vegas in february...please note that im a terrible photographer so i didnt have many good ones to choose from...haha!!!

Well guys thats it for my i heart btr post...maybe ive convinced a few of you to become rushers...ive already created monsters out of 5 of my friends...will you be the 6th?!...hmmm...

I've given you 200!!

bigger and betterly

Last weekend (not the one that just past but the one before that) i packed up my bags and headed to dc for a mini cruise reunion...boy did we have fun!!!

anne marie picked me up thursday night and we were off...the drive down took a little longer than we thought thanks to some unexpected traffic...we got to see a double rainbow which was awesome...and we ended up getting to laura's house around 1130...so not to bad..chrissy was already there so we wasted no time getting down to business watching backstreet boys via good ol' vhs tapes...haha!...this is us concert, 30 different qpg performances and an awesome fox kids commercial break special later it was after 3 am and time for sleeping...

Friday morning we got up and headed into the city...we walked around a little and went to the air and space museum...they had an exhibit of the first airplanes which was pretty cool...and i loved all the space stuff...

After that we headed to the american history museum...loved the flag exhibit..i spent a lot of time in there reading oll the facts...i found it very interesting...sorry for holding the rest of you up...haha!...our favorite exhibit in this museum was the one with all the old toys to play with...they had mr potato head and slinkys and etch a sketch...it was great!...they also had big white boards with a sign to draw your own superhero comic strip...most people just wrote things like "ashley was here" or "go team"...but not me...i followed the rules...i drew the super backstreet boys!!!...nick was a ninja!!!...hahaha!!!!

After that we ate dinner and went to pick up little sis from the airport...yes she flew from jersey to dc...whats it to ya?!..haha!...anyway...after retrieving little sis we went back to lauras place and watched more old school videos...and we had backstreet dance class...everyone got A++ one level one shape of my heart!...haha!...we also worked on bigger and i want it that way...i think everyone got those down pretty well...good job girls!...next time we have to tackle something a little more difficult!!!...im pretty sure we called it a night around 4...haha!

On saturday we were off to a late start but thats okay...we went into dc again...this time we went to the capitol and took a tour there...that was pretty interesting...then we strolled around a little...ate lunch...ate gellato...mmm, gellato!...then we walked toward the white house...we saw that from a far...next we took a break and sat on a bench in the shade...it was very very hot so we def needed the break...haha!!!...after sitting on for a little bit we made little sis entertain us...she did cartwheels and handstands and straddle jumps...i joined in and did some turns...then we all joined in and did the bigger dance...yeah, that happened!!...haha!!!

after dance time we got up and walked around some more...we saw the washington monument and the lincoln memorial and the jefferson memorial...and then we found our way to the museum of natural history...my favorite exhibit there was the gem stones and rocks and stuff...its so fascinating to me...

next we made our way back to suburbia...went to dinner...then made our way to karaoke!!!...omg! this was so much fun....we got a private room and only sang backstreet boys songs...we had the room for an hour but it felt like 10 minutes...our backstreet dance class from the night before came in handy...there was 5 of us so obviously we were each a different boy...i was howie...i didnt have many parts...so i got really excited when one came up!...haha!!!...the only problem with karaoke was some of the words we wrong..."drying out my battery is low"...really? youre drying out?!...haha!...well, one thing is for sure...we have to go to karaoke again!!!!

that night we went back to laura's and watched some more videos...obvi...we ended up watching crusie videos on youtube..."they did play differently" "no, we played betterly!"....hahaha!!!...and thats all i really have to say about those videos...haha!!...it was an early night for us...we went to sleep around 2:30...haha!!

sunday was our last day there...we went to georgetown,,,the original plan was to go to georgetown cupcakes and to explore georgetown some...we got there and it was so freaking hot that we decided to just get the cupcakes!!...haha!!...mmmm...that was a great decision because those cupcakes were delish!!!...after we got the cupcakes we went to lunch...and then we ate the cupcakes...i cant stress enough how good they were...im so glad we got extras to bring home!!!...haha!!!

then it was time to say goodbye to laura and chrissy and head back home to jersey with cort and anne marie...we really did have so much fun over the weekend...i cant wait til we have another reunion!!!...i love these girls!!! <3

do you ever wonder...

...what it would be like to date a celebrity?!...cause i do...all the time...its actually one of my favorite day dreaming topics...haha!...for the purposes of this post im gonna use kendall from big time rush...oh how i wish i could go out with him!...i mean imagine waking up next to this...ugh!...love!!!...haha! ;-)

kendall posted this picture on twitter a month or so ago...its my fav!!! <3

***DISCLAIMER!: Before i go any further i just want to say that im not cray cray...i am completely aware that everything im about to say isnt real, nor will it ever be real...im just a girl imagining the what if!...this is meant to be fun!!!***

Since ive thought about this topic extensively i thought it would be a good idea to break down a few of the different aspects of it...so heres some questions that i ask myself and the answers i come up with...haha!

how would he treat me?
well since i dont know kendall in real life i can only base this answer on what i know about him and how he presents himself to the public...so i think that he would be incredibly sweet...he wrote a song called "cover girl" and if you havent heard it before do a quick youtube search (or at least look up the lyrics!)...for someone so young to write a song that so positive and sweet towards women is amazing...also the tweets he sends to his fans make my heart melt...always so caring...he never fails to put a smile on my face with those...so my theory is if hes this awesome towards people hes never met, hes gotta be even more awesome towards the girl hes dating..if that girl was me i imagine that i would never feel like anything less than a superstar!

how would we handle the long distance thing?
im a jersey girl and hes in California most of the time...that wont exactly make things easy for the relationship...but i dont see why we couldnt see each other on weekends...based on twitter it seems like they film their show an a monday to friday schedule...i work monday to friday...so surely one of us could hop on a plane to visit the other for the weekend...right?...my mom works for a airline so i can fly super cheap and hes got millions so the cost wouldnt really matter to him...haha!...and when hes on tour i could just meet up with him where ever he is on the weekends...it will be great...i really think i would be fine not seeing him everyday...i mean ive never been in a relationship before so ive always been able to do whatever i want when ever i want...having a long distance relationship kinda lets me keep that freedom...yeah, it could totally work!!!

what if things got serious and he asks me to move to california?
this is something im not sure i could do...i dont know if i could leave my family...im super attached to them...and if i move there ill have to get a job...so what happens when he goes on tour and im stuck there by myself for months because i cant take off from work that long...im not all that great at making new friends so i would be there all alone...no friends...no family...no kendall...i would be miz...the only way it would be okay is if i didnt have a job so i could go on tour with him...but i need a job!...i have bills to pay!!!...moving is def something that would have to be discussed in detail between the two of us...who knows, maybe at that time the pros will outweigh the cons!...haha!!!...oh! You know what would be really great? If i could be a dancer on their tour...i could totally do it!!!!...that would take care of the job situation!...haha!...but what about my family?!...ugh!..haha!!!!

will i be able to handle his heartthrob status?
yes, i think so...i would def be supportive of him hugging fans and tweeting them and talking to them and even kisses on the cheek would be okay...i will make sure that he continues to do all of these things because i know how much it means to them...i dont think its something that every girl would understand but since i am a die hard backstreet fan i know exactly how much the little things mean to these girls...a simple hug could make a fans life complete...trust me!!!

would i still be able to go on my backstreet adventures?
of course!...if he were to protest or say anything about it all i have to say is if it werent for girls like me, you wouldnt have a job...he would have to understand...in fact i think he would understand more than normal boys!...the other day i did take this one a step too far and wondered if he would pay for me to go on the cruise...so laura came back to me and said just call it research for any future btr cruises that would happen...so i said well if thats the case he can pay for my whole research team!...haha!!!

would the fans like me?
well i certainly hope so...but im not stupid..i know that there are gonna be tons of girls who would hate me...i would like to think that i could handle the negative things girls would say about my appearance...i think it would be tough to take digs at my personality..but like little sis says, they dont know you so who cares what they say, you know its not true...anyway i hope that theres a bunch of fans who would like me...i think im a likable person...dont you?!...and all those fans who like me would follow me on twitter and read my blog...oh my gosh, my readership would go up so much!!!...i just hope they wont get upset with all my posts about my backstreet adventures!....haha!!!!

what kind of girlfriend would i be? (In terms of backstreet wives)
would i be like rochelle?...very present on twitter, tweets about everyday things going on in her life...a little on the shy and quiet side in person...like leighanne?...always interacting with the fans on twitter and in person...or like leigh?...not on twitter at all...dont see her around much but shes secretly out in the crowd rocking out to iwitw with everyone else...i think i would be a little bit of all three but im not sure...i guess it would depend on the situation...like i wouldnt change my twitter habits, i would still tweet about random everyday things and tweet my friends (like rochelle)...i would be nice to fans when i meet them, if they want a picture ill take a picture, if they want to chat ill chat (like leighanne)...and you better believe if im at a concert i will be in the crowd signing and dancing right beside everyone else (like leigh)

I feel like there are so many more tangents i let my mind wonder down when im day dreaming about kendall...but i think ill stop there...you get the point right?!...haha!...maybe one day all this will come true...but until then a girl can dream!!!! =)

NKOTBSB Geneva

**real quick before i start, i just want to say sorry!...i know i said i would be posting more often then totally dropped of the face of the planet...i went on vacay and when i got back work got crazy again...ill tell you all about it in an upcoming post...but for now lets get to the good stuff!!!**

to kick off the month of may little sis and i hopped on a plane and flew over to geneva switzerland to see NKOTBSB!!!...once we met up with laura and anne marie (you girls need some cool blog names! haha!!) and had an amazing backstreet adventure!!!...

sure i can sit here and tell you all about geneva but i feel like most of you just want to here about the boys...sooo ill keep this short...geneva is a beautiful city but not much to do...also its very expensive to eat...the first night little sis and i paid 60 chf (about $65) for 2 grilled cheese sandwiches and 2 waters...yeah, i know...umm and we'll leave it at that...concert time!!...haha!!

the day of the concert we took the bus to the arena (public transportation is really great there...nothing like the nasty A train...haha!)...im not sure what time we got there but we waited a while before we were let in...it was a beautiful day so i didnt mind so much...eventually vip check in started (we went all the way to europe, of course we got platinum vip!)...we were let in and we learned that they had some problems with the truck the stage travels in so soundcheck would be a little different...i never would have imagined how different (read as awesome) it would be!...

we were taken upstairs to the mezzanine level and waited a little more...then we saw the boys coming down the corridor!!...eeekkk!!!!....they stood on the steps in front of us and explained instead of the run of the mill sound check (a couple songs and 4 questions) we would get a special sound check...question and answer only!!...woohoo!!!...of course this ment that our 4 "get another boyfriend" signs were useless but thats okay...we still ended up holding them up...aj loved em!...but im getting ahead of myself...anyway...right out of the gate we made our presence known!...laura was the first one to shoot her hand up when the floor opened for questions...so she was the first one to ask one!!!...

after a few more questions went by little sis got to ask a question too!!...i was so proud of her for doing it because she backed out the last few times...she also got to tell them that we came from jersey!!...jersey is always a great ice breaker!...whenever we mention it they always have something to say...after the q&a was over we ended up having a long convo about the good ole garden state with howie (brian and aj chimed in too)...howie was joking with us and asked "what exit?", brian looked at him like he was crazy, but we answered without missing a beat...haha!!...then we told him that we went to the same high school that andrew fromm went to and he was really excited about that little tidbit (go hawks!! haha!)...

one more funny thing that happened...well little sis and i thought it was funny, im not sure if anyone else would...before picture time howie started fanning his shirt out and smelling himself...then he went over to brian and said smell me, do i smell bad? and was shoving his armpit in brians face...haha!!!...little sis and i were dying!...its so funny to us because she does that to me ALL THE TIME!...haha!!!

next up was picture time!!!...no barricade!!! yay!!!!...little siis went before me and after all the jersey talk asked them to fist pump...nick and aj didnt get the memo...haha!...i went right after her...obviously my 3 seconds with the boys went by waaaayyyy too fast...i said hello to all of them...nick winked at me which totally made me swoon...and i asked them to squeeeeeze in for my picture.... im extremely happy with how it came out!!! 

after picture time was backstage tour time with AJ!!! yay!!!....his tour was way better than nick's...aj was very entertaining...he gave us a lot of good info and told some funny jokes...going into the tour we had a giant list of questions we had for them...and during the tour me managed to ask a whole bunch of them...i was proud of us!...we also made sure we were front and center the whole time...i had a lot of fun during this part...we totally ran the show and i loved every second of it!...haha!!...as you probably know, everyone had to come up with some sort of pose for our picture per aj's request...since it is one of my dreams to dance with a backstreet boy i asked aj to do an everybody pose...i love the way it came out...but not as much as i love little sis' picture with him...i totally thought of that pose for her...its amazing!!!...one last thing is i totally blew my chance to get a hug from aj....but i dont want to talk about it cause i get mad at myself...okay ill talk about it...after he signed my vip pass he stepped in closer to me and put his arm around me but like an idiot, i stepped back...i thought he was coming in for the picture and i didnt want a regular picture so i panicked and backed away from him...ugh! im sooo stupid!!!...its weeks later and im still kicking myself...ugh!!!...haha!!!

the concert itself was general admission...we were debating were to stand...some of us wanted the front of the stage...and some of us wanted the head of the stage...so we ended up with a compromise and stood in the middle right next to a gate...this ended up working out well for us because danny came out that way during tonight  and brian and aj came through that way for shape of my heart...when danny came by i took a picture of him when we was directly in front of me...so he looked at me and said "do you want a picture with me?" so i said "yeah ill take a picture with you!!!"...he then took pictures with my girls and no one else...i wonder if its because we seemed to be the only ones in the whole audience singing along to the new kids songs...maybe they noticed...who knows?...also during the concert little sis managed to ask aj for his pocket square and got it!!!!

well thats it folks...another amazing backstreet adventure in the books and many more to come!!!...i had a blast per usual!!...for more videos from soundcheck and the concert please visit laura and anne marie's youtube pages...also you can check out lauras recap of the event over on her blog!!
