On The Road Again Tour: Manila - (March 22, 2015)
As all of you have known (or you didn't), I watched the 1D concert last week, March 22, 2015, which was held on Mall of Asia Concert Grounds at Pasay City.
Before we were allowed to get inside the venue, we had to line up outside first; my cousin and I lined up under the hot, scorching sun at 4:00 pm where we met two lovely ladies, Nikki and her cousin aswell. (We didn't exactly know each other, but they were very nice.) The line went from Seaside Blvd. and ended across Yakimix, which was parallel to MOA: By the Bay. Imagine how long the line was!!
Soon enough, we were running after ate Nikki, who served as our fake cousin so we could cut and merge into the front of the line. After a solid 2 minutes of running and pushing people, we were inside.
Marshalls were everywhere, the lines were destroyed and everyone was in a trance of chaos; mothers shouting, and some of the marshalls being mean to us.

At 8:00 pm, I think DJ Kc started doing his act, and everybody raved their hearts out to songs like Break Free, Summer, Pompeii and many more.
Around 9:00 pm, the intro video was playing, and No Control was being blasted through the speakers as the VTR showed the video. Everyone was screaming, I was shaking and I was ready to cry.
By the time the intro of Clouds came on with Harry hitting the note "CLOUUUDS!!", I started crying. The people were ecstatic and loud, I was smiling like an idiot realizing This is real. They're real, my sunshines are real. I've waited almost 5 years for this moment, it's happening. And I started sobbing again.

At around 9:30 pm, the concert was still going on, and according to my cousin, I have approximately cried 5 times during the show. Yes, 5. I couldn't help myself due to the fact that Niall, Liam, Harry & Louis were simply incredible performers whom I have grown fond to watch over the past 4 & 1/2 years.

At around 10:30-10:40 pm, the concert ended, and everyone were already lining up the exit, but that isn't where this post ends.
They let out a bunch of amazing fireworks. Beautiful ones, may I add.

As soon as the concert ended, me and my cousin, being the adventurers that we were, roamed around the grounds for awhile. We went inside the Gold area, the Titanium area, and the Diamond area. I missed VIP didn't I? It was because when we were about to enter with people, the marshall didn't let us in, but the other people got inside. Yes, a Marshall let those people in, but not us. Ugh. With what happened, we just settled on buying a wristband (300 pesos?!!) as a memorabilia of an amazing event we will never forget.

Everything that happened is still fresh in my mind, and I can still remember how it all went. They were amazingly beautiful, I could not comprehend. I'm still shook by the fact that I got to hear Louis, my sunshine after all these years. This PCD is taking over, and I'm not okay. Just kidding. No. I wasn't kidding.
