Sounds Live Feels Live

On the 8th of April 2016,  5 girls and 1 dad embarked on a long, tiring and squashed journey to the O2 arena. To see the one and only 5 SECONDS OF SUMMER! 

 


Yes that's right ladies and gentlemen I saw 5SOS live! Exciting right? Well I certainly thought it was and the rest of my boyband mad friends/family thought so too. Let's  get a full run down of the concert and everything that lead up to it. 

Okay so the day started of very sleepy... Literally I had like 2 hours of sleep! I don't know how I survived the day if I'm being honest. I woke up and could barely open my eyes(not surprising when you only get 2 hours of sleep) and slowly crawled out of bed. I had a shower and threw on some super comfy clothes because I needed to stay comfortable if I wasn't going back to bed anytime soon. The next part of my day was heading over to my nans house and saying a massive HAPPY BIRTHDAY! to my cousin Kira. She turned 16 on the day of the concert so it was sort of an extra special present for her that day, but really the tickets had been an early birthday present for my sister Daisy who is born in April too. After ripping open countless presents with Kira I sort of just chilled out with my family. We played mincraft(What? My cousins are literally all the same age) and talked about the set list for the concert. 

The next part of the day was sort of stressful, I had to pick an outfit ... Well buy one. Yes me being very unorganised had left my outfit to the last minute so we spent two hours rushing around new look and outfit searching for a glam outfit that fit my needs for that night. Of course i decided my outfit inspiration was Sandy from grease. Simply because I had watched grease live the night before and fallen in love with her character all over again. So after searching for the perfect leather jacket for about an hour everything was finally bought and we headed home to get ready. Once home my best friend Amber arrived almost immediately. So she had to sit there for the next hour and a half watching everyone rush to get ready. Unexpectedly mine and my sisters friend Leah had also decided to dress like Sandy from grease as well. We sort of had a "who wore it better contest." She thought she was a better Sandy but I still think it was me! 

Finally we were all ready. Makeup on, hair curled and jewellery clasped. I think we all looked rather fabulous and somewhat overdressed for a rock/pop concert.

After a long day it was actually time to leave, we all jumped in a cab... Well sort of squeezed in. It was sort of squashy. You should of seen the look on the drivers face when 5 overdressed girls got in followed by my dad. Who is very bald and very large. It was quite funny. Once we arrived we went into full squealing mode. Rushing to find our entrance and buy drinks to sit down with. Finally once we were all seated ... It began. 

It was one of the best concerts I had been to. The atmosphere was ecstatic and the whole arena was full of loud screams and guitar notes. The set list was fantastic and I really enjoyed screaming out the words to every song. It was one of the best nights in a while and I think everyone enjoyed it. Even my dad! So after another squashed ride home and a stop at McDonald's everyone headed home to bed. I spent almost the whole weekend asleep. I was so exhausted from all the fun! 

Overall the night was crazy and I loved every second of it. I really hope I can go to something similar again but perhaps I should wear more comfortable shoes because my feet were killing me on the way home. Too much dancing I think!
