Tent City 2012 (Part 2)

I was mentally and physically drained!! I thought i was going to be up at 6:00 am.. OH I WAS SO WRONG...

SATURDAY It was 8:00 am and i still didn't wanted to get up... i was so tired!! and the bed was so warm and comfy :( We got our stuff together and went down to tent city to see what was going on that day :)
As soon as we were inside tent city we knew something was happening... First of all they were putting the stage ready for the concert and then they had a small tent next to it... we knew there was supposed to be a SPECIAL SURPRISE AT 10:00 AM and yes, somehow we knew it was going to be Stephenie Meyer but what happened next.. that we did not expect.



They made us go all the way back.. to leave the entire Nokia Plaza free so the staff could work in getting everything for the concert ready, then we saw her!! FAR FAR AWAY BUT SHE WAS THERE!!
The Queen herself was there to greet the fans or so we thought.
Jessica the lovely staff lady started screaming the rules.. -_- good luck on that, over 1500 fans were waiting to see how this was going to work and then we heard the rules.
RANDOM DRAWING TO GET A PICTURE AND A POSTER SIGNED BY STEPHENIE... RANDOM DRAWIN... random drawing... random drawing..
OH NOT AGAIN!!! first they made that to get your spot for tent city and now AGAIN??
Well those were the rules.. they let groups of 50 fans per drawing and it was from #100 to #150 (example)
so you had to check your wristband every time (by that time i already knew my #) ANYWAY...
1 hour and 5 groups of 50 went by.. Emily was starving so she went to Starbucks and got some cookies with cheese and Serrano Ham to eat (Isn't she lovely) in the meanwhile i went and talk to Jessica who's really awesome and i gave her some Mexican candy.. NO i wasn't trying to buy her... haha and i asked her if they were going to get people from numbers #50 to #100s because they were just letting people from #0's to #50's YES I KNOW YOU DON;T UNDERSTOOD ME SHE DIDN'T EITHER... So i said it again like this: yes like you're letting people from #1400 to #1450 but no one like #950 to #1000 (YES I GAVE HER MY NUMBER) and she said well yes.. but it's all up to the drawing so i don't know.. i went back to sitting on the street eating a cookie with ham and then Jessica screamed.. NUMBER #950 TO #1000 (NOT EVEN FREAKING KIDDING) i swear that's how it happened  and that was the last group to get to know Stephenie Meyer :D we were so lucky and it was so random <3 about 500 fans got a picture with her and a personalized poster signed by her
this is mine 
To Dann Mexico :)

And my picture with her and my friends with the posters :) 



Oh!! Also when we were in line waiting to get our picture with Stephenie Meyer.. 

Christian Serratos showed up to surprise some fans and i was lucky enough to have

a picture with her... KIND OF...


More after the Jumpp!


After that we went back to the hotel to put our posters on a safe place :) we didn't knew we were the last group until we came back to tent city and SM was gone :( so many people was heartbroken it really made me feel bad...
Emily and Crissy went to the ESPN restaurant for food and since i was almost poor i decided to to Subway :) eat fresh!! lol but first i had something to take care inside tent city (too long to share) but thanks to that i got stuck on the disabled area... security didn't let me move because the concert was about to start (and i tried cause i was super hungry)
i didn't even noticed it but there he was... standing there with red pants and a huge smile.. Jackson Rathbone.. RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME ! So i asked for a picture and he said yes even when his staff told him not to :) even tho i was the luckiest girl in than minute... this was the picture i got -_-

ALWAYS... ALWAYS CHECK YOUR CAMERA FOR ZOOM!!
ANYWAY.. LOL i got back to my spot and snapped some pretty good pictures of the concert with my camera :)














you can check how it was and videos and more 
HERE , HERE or HERE

And then the concert was over.. IT WAS AMAZING specially Nikki <3 AWW She's just so pretty and nice and perfect and her voice!!!
Everyone on the disabled zone started leaving but me and some other girls were in hopes that we could see Jackson or Ashley or Nikki but nothing happened.. so they left :( and then Ashley was signing for fans behind me and i was all alone waiting for her to get to where i was, this is the picture i took trying to get Ashley but instead i got this man with his AWESOME mustache 
anyway Ashley left all the sudden and i was just about to cry when then i turned around facing the stage and everyone started screaming JACKSON!! JACKSON COME HERE!! and he went there!!! he started signing for the fans in the front row in front of the stage and i was there!! so i got my book signed (which will show after this post) and also took a couple pictures BAD PICTURES but the girls from PAGETOPREMIER.COM saved my day with her pap picture of me and Jackson :)




haha well at least i got him in the same space in 3 pictures LOL after that i dropped my camera with the lent out and it stopped working :( BAD KARMA!!
but i had my Ipod (THE SAVER) with me and i took it out to see the time when.. well just there standing next to me Ashley Green!!! aww SHE'S SO BEAUTIFUL!!!! I told her "Mexico Loves you Ashley" and she said aww i love you guys <3 and i asked for a picture and got my book signed :)
Then.. HEAVEN... NIKKI!! NIKKI WAS THERE SIGNING TOO!!! aww man.. she's just soo perfect!!!
I gave her some Mexican candy and she took it awww i told her Nikki i love you and yes.. she said Aww i love you too LOL i know i bet she says that to everyone :D
This are the pictures i took with my iPod!! not bad Apple!!


AHHH!! And so that's what happened that glorious day <3
after that i didn't knew what to do.. i was all like ok.. now what? i tried fixing my camera but it was just impossible :( good thing i had my Ipod... later that day Emily told me we could use her camera (which by that time was taking really crappy pictures) :( time went by she gave me some of her food <3 and then we got hungry again and went to get food from Subway..
I thought of buying a new camera because REALLY Emily's was just... not good NO BUENO haha
we ate some subways and went back to Tent City 

THIS IS THE PROOF OF EMILY'S BAD CAMERA LOL



Ayanna Berkshire, the actress that plays the waitress in the first Twilight Movie was signing  and next to her was Jack Morrissey (The awesome guy that gave us hope also Bill's partner)  and the MTV popcorn award.. i don't know.. don't ask.. we took our picture with the popcorn with Emily's camera... but then she said: I think the lent is dirty.. maybe that's why the pictures look bad.. SHE LICKED THE LENT!!!!
SHE LICKED IT!! hahaha and BOOM it worked haha 











Yeey the camera was fixed!! haha Breaking Dawn Part 1 was playing right in the Nokia Plaza so we got some nice spots in the floor and sat there to watch the movie :)




It was too cold so we just went back to the hotel after the movie was over :)

SUNDAY I know i said i was super tired on Saturday.. but this day... OH MAN!! I was more than exhausted!!! It was just too much and we had to sleep on an air mattress that died in the middle of the night so we spent almost 4 hours sleeping in the floor!!! My back was killing me :( 
I showered before sleeping so i just brushed my hair and put some clean clothes and waited for Emily to be ready.


We were walking inside tent city the part in the Nokia Plaza and the staff told us  to go to our tent and wait for the Breakfast The Corner Bakery was going to give us.. and so we walked to the LA Convention Center to were our tent was and waited for a couple minutes... then a local radio station started putting a small tent and then the staff told us to back up a little.. they were putting a barricade! MEANING SOMEONE IMPORTANT WAS GOING TO BE THERE!! we just stood there right where the barricade started for almost 1 hour before anything happened... the radio station played some music and then the staff and people from Time Warner Cable gave so many stuff away, Jeff!! the awesome staff guy gave us so many things and that's when Team Jeff was born 



Minutes went by and our first celebrities arrived!!
Boo Boo Stewart and Julia Jones were on our side!!





Awww cuties!! they also signed for almost everyone :)
And then more people from the cast!!
Including Peter Facinell, MyAnna Buring, Maggie Grace and Mia Maestro
I got pictures with everyone even tho they weren't letting Peter take pictures with fans just signing he was really nice and posed for a picture with me :)







So that was that... all the celebrities left and we headed downstairs to see what was going on..

Tracey Heggins, Noel Fisher, Marlane Barnes, Rami Malek, Angela Sarafyan, Patrick Brennan, Judi Shekoni, Erik Odom, Toni Trucks, Bill Trangadi  and CHARLIE BEWLEY!!

Another day went by.. last day of Tent City!! We were so lucky in every single way that it was really hard to believe all that just happened.. every single day i looked up to the sky and thanked God for this amazing oportunity :)
That same day we learned that the Premiere spots were also random :(
They were going to make a random drawing of the wristband numbers to decide in what order we would get our spots for the black carpet... Once again it was all plain and simple luck.
It was still early that day and they were screening Warm Bodies (UGH) in the movie theater next to the Nokia Plaza and some of my friends wanted to go so i went with them...
We needed to left all cameras and phones in the hotel since the movie is not released until Feb 2013 
So i don't have any pictures of that exact moment :/ 
The movie was.... i don't know 20 minutes after seeing a zombie falling in love with a girl that kinda looks like Kristen Stewart i fell asleep and when i woke up i started talking in Spanish oops!! HAHA my friend always freaks out when i do that she's all like NO SE NO SE hahaha
Since we weren't sleeping in our tent we decide to pick it up.. the tent was so bad.. all ripped and a total mess when we took it off... then some lady told us not to.. because they were going to check if you were staying on your tent in order to make valid your wristband for the premiere O.O... We hurried back and put the tent back up.. well my tent mates did that cause i hurried back to the Nokia Plaza to see when did we needed to start lining for the premiere...

WE WERE IN GROUP 2!!!!! Luck was still  by our side.. of course we still didn't had an idea what that meant.. i swear i asked about 20 times and then made my friends ask again lol
I told my friends the news and we were jumping and screaming and dancing and our tent was back up.. we decided that we were just going to stay up all night and talk or play since the tent was just not good to have 3 persons sleeping inside... 20 MINUTES LATER Summit announce that due to the bad weather we could start taking our tent down -_- ARE YOU KIDDING ME??!! haha anyway we went back to the hotel and order some pizza hang out with some friends and had a nice dinner :)
I went back to the camping site to take the tent down by myself  NAAH just kidding my 2 good friends Kalise and Kritzia helped me :)
It was freezing!!!!
Before going to sleep we decided to go to Hollywood and check Rob hand-prints!!

Tent City was over!!
For me was the best experience ever!!  
For the first time i enjoyed what being a TWI-HARD means
1500 LADIES AND GENTLEMEN Were my family for almost 5 days
I met people from all around the world and thanks to Twilight i met some of the most important persons in my life and i'm just so happy i'm part of this world.
