140809 (day one)
- 10am: arrived at the venue. i remember the line being ridiculously long it wrapped around the entire venue and it was a pretty large place.
- 11am: met katya! she waited in line with me T__T
- 11am: while waiting outside the gates, danny from la and dumbfoundead were doing an interview with vixx. almost started crying in line.
- 12:30pm: finally received my wristbands to enter the venue, continued walking with katya just to explore
- 1pm-ish: got to the stage outside the concert venue, there were not a lot of people crowding but b1a4 were up there. i lost it.
- approx. 1:30pm: interview with b1a4 ended so i tried to find a place to sit down, ended up walking backstage and security told me i couldn't be there. i walked out slowly and gongchan appeared like 10ft from me. i whipped out my camera and shouted his name and he waved at me. pt 1 of many interactions with gongchan.
- 2:00pm: katya and i were crowding around the free gift booth there were a lot of people. also met the kind girls that ran bangtan.tumblr.com
- 3:00pm: ??
- 4:00pm: katya and i left for the marketplace! there was a lot of stuff and i didn't get to buy anything because we realised the line to get into the venue was really long so we had to line up early
- 5:00pm: many people are lining up now. security didn't let us in the concert venue until approx. 6:15. they didn't check the numbers on our wristbands (they determined your place in line). it was messy.
- appox. 6:15: GOTTA GO FAST (WE RAN INTO THE VENUE)
- 6:20pm: holy SHIT this place is FUCKING huge
- 6:25pm: katya and i got p2 which was like literally 2ft away from p1 we were standing right next to the stage. holy shit.
- 6:30pm: preshow! a bunch of nugus and a white guy. ok.
- 6:55pm: LIGHTS OUT EVERYONES GOING CRAZY
- 7:00-9:30pm: SJDDFHJKSDFKRHHRJVHK?? ? ??>>!?!?!?!??!LSJDDFJLKSDLSFJL
- 9:31pm: i am empty
- approx. 10:00pm: katya waited with me until my aunt came to pick me up. what an eventful day,.
140810 (day two)
- 10am: arrived early because katya and i had a hunch bangtan were doing to do the interview thing and i did not want to miss out
- 11am: ITS SO HOT WHAT HTE FCK DANNY STARTED SPRAYING US WITH WATER
- 12pm: the dj started playing bangtan songs and the crowd sang along it sounded lovely. by now the crowd was probably five or six times the size of b1a4's.
- approx. 12:15: JTHSJET TAEHYGUN KI TMA ETHOH YMG D THIS WAS MY FIRST TIME SEEING HIM IN REAL LIFE I CANT UFKCING BEALIEVNE
- 1:00pm: i have no chill
- 2:00pm: katya and i were chilling around under a tent in a grassy area
- 3:00pm: we headed to the marketplace. the booths that sold kpop albums ran out of bangtan. fuck
- 3:00pm: bought an alpaca
- 4:00pm: after the way security ran things yesterday, we didn't want to risk being far in line so we lined up early
- 4:00pm: security started getting strict. they were going up and down the line ordering people by their wristband number. because i arrived late yesterday my number was in the thousands and katya was #140 or something. i had to think quick so i pulled a pen out of my backpack and started ripping apart my numbered wristband. the number was no longer legible and by the time security got to us to order us, the woman asked me what happened to my wristband. i lied and said my wristband got caught and stomped on, but my number was after katya's. she believed me. i wonder where #141 was at that moment. thanks for not being there, #141 you're the real mvp.
- 5:00pm: lots of protests going on about how security is handling things.
- 6:00pm: the line is starting to move, and we are moved through security again. this time a guy asked about my wristband. gave him the same lie and he let me through.
- 6:15pm: inside the venue now! they changed the stage layout so that it would be easier to see all the idols. i wanted to make sure katya and i picked the right spot, because taehyung would choose a certain part of the runway to do fanservice for. we won the lottery that day. we chose the right side.
- 6:50: lights out! i am so nervous
- approx 7:10: WE DIDNT KNOW WHO WAS GONNA PERFORM FIRST
- 7:11: [RED LIGHTS] [LOUD SIRENS] [ME SCREAMING OVER THE NOISE] "KATYA! ITS BANGTAN ISNT IT"
- 7:12: seeing figures rising out of the middle
- 7:12: [LIGHTS TURN ON] [BOY IN LUV STARTS PLAYING]
- ???: i like it plays. i fucking love this song.
- ???: TAEHYUNG......CAME TO OUR AREA AND BLEW KISSES AND SCANNED THE CROWD. I TOOK A PICTURE AT THE RIGHT TIME SO IT LOOKED LIKE HE WAS POSING FOR MY CAMERA. DID HE? I DONT KNWO THIS KEEPS ME UP AT NIGHT
- ???: last song is attack on bangtan! near the end, jeongguk is right in front of us and did he look at my camera? i still dont know. this also keeps me up at night. fuck you jeon jeongguk.
i notice that when you're happy, you lose track of time. you forget everything in the universe.
