The most random experience i ever had...After almost 4 months of hard work and saving i made it to L.A,
The whole trip i was with my Twi-Sister Emily :) (the blonde one)
WEDNESDAY: We arrived in L.A on Nov. 7th 1 day before registrations started and we spent the rest of that day with a group of amazing ladies (fellow twihearts) AND MEXICAN FRIENDS!! we had dinner at The Yard House in downtown LA
and then we were DONE... EXHAUSTED so we headed back to our hotel JW Marriott which is right in front of the Nokia Plaza.
THURSDAY: We were ready to start the adventure but since we were in group 6 (the leftovers) we needed to wait til 5:00pm to register and get our camping spot, this year the whole layout was different... there was less space to camp outside the Nokia theater so they added a new camping spot on the parking lot behind the Nokia theater right where the After Party is held.. and we knew that was going to be our spot :( sadly! because we thought we were going to be apart from all the fun... UNTIL this awesome guy from the staff told me that the reason why they left the entire Nokia plaza clean was because all the important events were supposed to happen there, that way everyone had the same chance to enjoy them!! (HURRAH!! JUMPING SCREAMING OF HAPPINESS) I was so happy that even tho we were the last group to register we'd still have the chance to have so much fun (Later i learned Jeff was the name of this guy.. GO TEAM JEFF if you know what i mean ;) ANYWAY.. we waited.. and waited AND WAITED outside the Starbucks for a little while where i had an amazing and awesome moment!!!
Twilight really unites people from all around the world!
I have friends from France to China and then all the way to Brazil :) but my girls!! my favorite girls in the whole world are Gillian and Celine from the French Cover LOL i met them months ago through Facebook, Celine on the right she's my magazine dealer in Europe haha and Gillian... well Gillian is a little angel in this world.
After a couple bear hugs and screams we left to get ready for registration.
Check more after the jump!
At 3:00pm we were already in line for registration.. OH, did i mentioned IT WAS RAINING!!!? and freezing!! BUT, FOR THE LOVE OF TWILIGHT we stayed there in order to get a good number and a good camping spot..
the time went by really quick.. it was 5:00 pm and they started moving fans to the top of the parking lot, Jessica (the other staff lady) directed us to a table to get our wristbands and since my last name starts with A i was the first one to get it :) #0972 meeh for me it was just a number (i was so wrong)

And so it started... We were on the top floor of the parking lot... did i said it was raining? well by that time it wasn't raining anymore BUT!! our camping spots were outside the huge white tent! meaning that if it started raining we would be wet and homeless.. but it's ok.. it's ok we wanted it to work so we started putting our tents, getting our air mattress ready and blankets and pillows EVERYTHING!!
And it was finally done! we walked down to the Nokia Plaza to watch Twilight on the jumbotron
Long story short.. i convinced the staff to let me and my 2 friends camp on the Nokia plaza instead of the parking lot... i know i know.. It wasn't exactly the right thing to do but i really wanted it to be as perfect as possible and so we moved our tent down to the Nokia Plaza (PAIN IN THE ASS) and then a couple more friends followed our lead and did the same thing <3
We enjoyed the movie (as much as possible because it was really REALLY cold outside)
My tent mates Emily and Crissy went back to the hotel and I invited Aniie one of the Mexican Girls to stay with me in my tent :)
It wasn't cold inside.. we had a couple sleeping bags and an air mattress so it was actually a normal night i have nothing to complain about.. expept that Aniie likes to put her entire body all over the mattress LOL
FRIDAY: We started waking up at 5:00 AM to take showers and get ready for the day :)
I think that day i didn't ate anything for breakfast... after a couple hours the staff of Jamba Juice started getting prepared for the work out and giving away some of the delicious smoothies :)
A couple pictures and videos of how that end up are bellow!
AND I'M ASHAMED RIGHT NOW!! haha i look sooo bad trying to dance! NEVER AGAIN!!
and can you imagine at least half of the camp didn't had a place to take a shower after? O.o true story
And for the rest of the day we just chilled out... rest a little on our tents (Emily did some homework)
WE CHANGED OUR CLOTHES.. but before all that x.X, the staff of Tent City made us move our tents again :(
KARMA! we had to change our tents to an even more far away place!! The Conventions Center!! (Just kidding is just behind the Nokia theater next to the parking) lot... but still.. it was just too far away from everything :( so we moved our tent which was already ripped apart and we just left our sleeping bags inside and decided to sleep on the hotel...
The rest of the day went by so fast... we took some pictures and started collecting awesome pins and rubber bands from different groups that were giving them away :)
Oh i taught some of the French girls to tell bad words in Spanish LOL
Around 7:30 PM The screening of New Moon started
And i was happily watching the movie with the French Coven when everyone started running to the parking lot.. i was like What??? WELL Tinsel Korey was signing for fans just bellow the parking lot and the line was SOOO LONG i was just about to give up and go back to the movie but then.. (it's really good to make friends during Tent City) long story short they let me stay in the line with them and after 10 or 15 minutes i got the chance to get my book signed by Tinsel and a picture with her!! Oh and she was selling her CD's so i bought one for $15 and got it signed too :)
We went back to the Nokia Plaza to finish with New Moon and so we did :)
around 10:00 pm Eclipse started :D MY FAVORITE MOVIE FROM ALL OF THEM!
REALLY REALLY COLD!!!!!!!!! by that time i was in the first line with some other friends from USA they were getting all this tips about Jackson Rathbone or Kellan Lutz surprising the fans on that night!!
oh yeah cause Jackson was so kind to tweet this:
Someone started running to the parking lot again!! and of course we followed!!
a line was starting to get ready and then the staff started yelling GO BACK GO BACK!!
NOTHING WAS THERE!!! Just crazy twilight fans!!
I hurt my ankle while running :( but nothing too bad :)
I got back to the movie and watched some of my favorite scenes!!
After the movie was over i asked about 10 different persons from the staff if Jackson or Kellan were supposed to show up and all of them said no so i walked to my hotel and fall asleep :)
