Finally Friday....

I have never done the Five on Friday link up so I decided I might as well today! Hope you're all having a great week, the weather is sunny here today so I'm a very happy camper! Lets get on with this Five on Friday stuff!

1. I'm in post concert depression! I have been listening to a playlist I have created of the concert set list and I just really want it to be Sunday again because it was such an amazing day. 

2. This week has flown by! I can't believe it is Friday already. This is probably because of the concert being on Sunday and just didn't feel like Sunday and then recovery mode on Monday and Tuesday wasn't helpful haha

3. I got tickets for Sarah MacLachlan's tour! It is like 194 days away but nice to know I have tickets and I have plans in November haha Sad thing I haven't bought her new album yet! It came out on Tuesday but I haven't taken the time to get it but I will of course.

4. I'm really excited for Sunday because we are celebrating my dad's birthday and mother's day with a nice meal of lobster! It will be the first time we are having lobster this season. So yummy! 

5. I won't lie I'm going to go now and watch more youTube videos from the concert! This is the only way I can get through my post concert depression! 

And before I leave you I have to link up with my girl Whitney for #backthatazzup Friday!

Happy Weekend Everyone!

So I Met the Backstreet Boys....Again

A weekend update on Wednesday? Sure why not! I really meant to get this up yesterday but I was battling some major post concert blues! And lets be honest I was super tired since I didn't get much sleep on Sunday night and Monday wasn't a great day for sleep either. But anyways, on with the weekend update well more just Sunday!

On Sunday was the day I had been waiting for since like March 19th or something when the tickets went on sale for BSB. After night a restless sleep on Saturday night (yes, I was kinda excited) I got up and had to do my hair twice! Then I headed off to Halifax to finish getting ready with my friends before heading to the sound check. The friends I was with were friends I had made because of our love for Backstreet Boys and finally having all of us together to experience this was amazing. The sound check was great as always, it was always nice to be able to interact with the boys a bit before the concert and it makes me more excited for the concert. As always I had my picture taken with the boys and this year was the best one I think. They are all such sweet guys. Nick liked my shirt, finally got to meet Kevin and they all smell amazing! 

The concert was frickin' amazing! These boys know how to put on a show and the place was packed! It always normally a well sold show but on Sunday it was basically sold out! People were up in the nosebleed section all the way in the back. It was great to see this even though there was fans there who didn't know much of their new stuff but still AMAZING show. They did a good mix of their oldies and new ones. I love that they still dance and they are good! I also like that they sing and you can tell they are singing because you can hear that they are out of breath. If I wanted to listen to perfect vocals I would just listen to the album. I'm there to be entertained and the Backstreet Boys never disappoint when it comes to entertaining the crowd. I should stop rambling about how awesome the concert was because I could do it for hours and hours which would make for one long post and I have more to tell you about the night!

After the concert there was an after party. We decided to go a few days before even though the last one we went to was kind of crappy. You couldn't even really see the boys. This time they had it at the Marquee Club which isn't always open so it was just fans there and there was a stage for the boys to be on. It was a lot of fun. The boys seemed to having a great time and Nick did a great job DJ'ing. The bonus part of this night I got to get more pictures with the guys. Brian wasn't there and Nick didn't come off the stage because he was DJ'ing but I was lucky enough to get my picture with Kevin, Howie and AJ. I love these guys!

The night was amazing and I got to share it with some great people! I can't wait until I get to do it again! Hopefully sooner then last time. Since I don't have my pictures on this computer I'm just going to leave you my picture from sound check! If you want to see more feel free to let me know or add me on Facebook or Instagram :)

Internet Friends?

When I was trying to figure out what to write about today I really didn't have any great ideas since I didn't really want to do another beauty post this week. Then it hit me...internet friends! i know I doesn't sounds that excited but this weekend I'm spending time with people I 'met' on the internet.

There are some people who think it is crazy to think they you can make a real friend on the internet and to be honest I kind of felt that way for a long time because you can be whoever you want to be on the internet and no one is going to call you out for it because they don't know the difference between the real you and the pretend you. For me what you get in 'real life' is the same as you get on the internet. I think the friends I have met online are the same and for the ones I have had the pleasure of meeting in real life and I know this for sure. I realize that sometimes internet friends don't work out and I think it is easier to lose touch with internet because you can get busy with real life and then next thing you know they and/or you have moved on. I luckily have found some great people online to become friends with. I think my first internet friends came from LiveJournal and I still talk to a lot of them! Everyone knows the lovely Ms Whitney from I wore Yoga Pants, she was one of my LJ buds! My good buddy Justin I have been talking with him since like 2002, all started with LiveJournal! It is weird to think about it sometimes. Also, Faith from You Gotta Have Faith was a friend on LiveJournal and since we actually were from the same place we got to meet in person and she was great and of course still is great but she moved across the country! ;) I could list a few more of the girls I still talk to from Livejournal but they know who they are and know I love them! OH I did have a friendship going for awhile with Stephen who actually went on to win the reality show with Paris Hilton haha I think they was actually on MySpace and not LiveJournal actually but yes before he was Paris' BFF, he was one of mine online.

Mutual interests bring people on the internet together the most. So, it comes as know surprise that I have made some great friends through some of my interests such as music. Ryan Malcolm (winner of the first Canadian Idol) bought me some great friends! I don't talk to the girls I met through Ryan enough anymore but I can say they are all amazing people! Then of course Backstreet Boys bought me some of the best friends I could ask for. Even though I'm far too excited to finally meet Kevin Richardson on Sunday I'm almost equally excited to spend the day with my friends since we don't see each other as much especially this past few months as I didn't get up to Halifax as much as I normally do. It is going to be a great day all being together and bonus we finally get to be together at a Backstreet concert. Deena and Gavin lived in England so it was hard before now haha. Yup, I just can't wait. 

I have gone from being internet friends with people to real life friends. I have attended some their weddings, I'm friends with their families, I'm excited for them when they have great news like they are going to be parents and I'm sad with them when they share hard/bad news. I'm happy they are in my life no matter how they came into it.

And just to wrap it now because I could probably ramble on forever about the great internet people I have met. I just want to say friends are friends, it doesn't matter how you met them, good friends can come from anywhere and really good friends are hard to find so keep them close and be happy you found them. 

And because I have linked up with Whitney in far too long here is a song to get your weekend started! A throw back really...Happy Friday Everyone!

Monday Monday....

Well, getting back into blogging isn't as easy as I hoped it was going to be! I really don't have any ideas of what I want to blog about! But we are going to power through this and we are going to blog today!

....chirp.....chirp....

Hmmm....Okay, I can tell you what I'm excited about for this coming weekend! On Sunday I heading up to Halifax to see some of favorite people and going to see the Backstreet Boys! Yup, if you read this blog you know this girl right here is a Backstreet Girl and will be one forever. I have to say I'm most excited about finally seeing them as 5! The one time I did see them when they were still 5, AJ had hurt his foot and only came out for one song so that doesn't really count but now it will be glorious with all five! And to top it off I might have gotten a VIP so I'm going to meet KEVIN!! He was never my favorite but man I'm excited to finally meet him. I'm so excited to seeing my friends because I haven't seen as much I would like to because of school I wasn't in Halifax as much. It is going to be a great night for sure! Throwback to the last time I met them! :) Poor AJ had a scatch on his cornea.

I have to say I'm really lost without having to go to school! I'm happy to have the break but man I just don't know what to do with myself yet! I'm sure it will come! I also miss the girls! It is weird going from seeing someone Monday to Friday to not seeing them until September! Though I'm sure we will have a few gatherings over the summer. 

Alright, this is a terrible blog but I honestly I have got nothing! Better tomorrow promise xo

Tuesday Tunes and Button Swap!

Another Tuesday everyone! Did anyone watch Brother vs Brother last night (or Sunday if you're in the US)? I rather liked it so far because well I like most things Jonathan and Drew do. I'm not sure which Brother I'm rooting for because I'm not sure which team memebers I like more yet. So, we will just have to wait and see! 

Anyways, it is my last day of puppy sitting and I'm gonna miss my little Belle not that I can't come and see here but not quite the same as being with her all day. Currently she is asleep on the sofa. I kind of have busy rest of the week but I have blogs planned and basically sorted out already so I'm not leaving you hanging. 

This week I'm having a hard time figuring out a song for Tuesday Tunes! I honestly can't figure out one! Hmmmm geez it really should be this hard! Oh because it is only a week away until the new Backstreet Boys albums comes out I will give you In A World Like This!

I'm looking for people to button swap with! I haven't changed up in awhile and while I'm going to keep the ones I have up right now I'm looking for a few more to add! If you want to button swap just let me know in the comments or feel free to email me @ brittanylea02@gmail.com

Hope you're all having a great Tuesday!

#backthatazzup Friday with Whitney!

90's Dance Party Time! Hope you're all having a great Friday and going to have a great weekend!

20 Years and Counting

I know some of you will not care about this but I wanted to post something about the 20 year Anniversary for the Backstreet Boys because I have been a fan since I was 12/13 and I will be 30 this year. I have had the opportunity to see them in concert, meet them and I have never been disappointed. They are true performers and lovely men. They all have a way of making you feel like you're the only one in the room when meeting them and make you feel appreciated as a fan. Not only have they helped create many great memories in my life but they have bought me to some of the best friends I could have asked for. 

So to end this quick little post Congrats to the Backstreet Boys on 20 years and counting, Thank You for the memories and the friends!

xoxo
