{April A-Z Challenge} The Letter A

I am really excited to challenge myself to a blogpost every day! eek!

Let's kick it off...

A is for... Audience

1D Concert - Wembley

I have wanted to see One Direction live for 4 years. I promised myself that if more tickets for their already sold out show (12 minutes for the 2014 world tour) ever became available again, I would do whatever I could to get 2 tickets.

I had 20 internet windows open for various ticket suppliers in the UK and I refreshed screens like a mad scientist trying to bring Frankenstein to life.

I secured my 2 tickets and I must admit, I almost cried.

This photo is taken of the audience as we were waiting for the boys. I can remember pausing, just to be in the moment, I inhaled deeply as I listened to the excited voices around me & felt the bodies pushing up against me as we all jostled for a few more steps closer to the stage... 

This is what I had dreamed about - this is what happens when you fearlessly follow your dreams.

Simple Gestures

Our CEO is one of the nicest people you will ever meet.
He is funny, charming and tells really corny jokes. He knows the best spots for good food and great wine.

He is based in Cape Town and has been trying to get me to CT for years. One day I may just relent.

He calls me Sunshine.

The other day a poster of One Direction and a necklace of Liam - my favourite arrives in the mail. From the CEO because he knows how much I love them.

I tell you - surprises like this are enough to have me smiling the entire day!

Speaking of which - my concert at Wembley was 40 days ago. I am still wearing my armband from the show.
Yes I bath with it on - it is not made of paper.

40 Days & 40 Nights
