Yes! It’s been a month now. And my super looooooong fan account is not yet finished. I still need to list down everything that happened to me on that day and after the concert ^_____________________^. Don’t worry this time it’ll be in bullets.
- The newfound friends I’ve met while waiting at the ticketing booth were able to watch the concert. Mommy Tess scalped two upper box tickets. While Laine, finally got a Gen Ad seat (Yep, I helped her to get one).
- My friend saw Joseph Bitangcol at Starbucks. I wonder if he’s meeting up with Dara eonnie.
- I wish I had their official lightstick. Should I get one this December?
- Should’ve hoarded all the Jeju air fans on our pit. I could sell it for a Pnp100 per piece. Kidding!
- I arrived at home around 1AM. Good thing my parents were not mad at me.
- Was too sleepy in church so I had to pinch myself from time to time to be awake >.<
- Brought my camera and the Alive Tour lightstick at work. Just want to share my experience to my officemates.
- I’m supposed to work but I’m still on a high. I was doing my job while spazzing with my friends on twitter and listening to BB songs on myheadset. Yeah. That’s what you call multi-tasking. Kekeke
- Searched for the video RiRi and GD shot using the Galaxy phone. And guess what? We were on the video!!! *freaks out
- I didn’t notice the ‘G-bulge’ on the concert, but upon checking some photos and fancams, OMG >.<
- Editing the photos was grueling. I was so near to the boys yet some photos I got were blurry. I probably need a new camera. An SLR I guess?
- Still imagining what if I got a Doraemon stuff toy and gave it to DaeDae. Most probably, I will get a hug from him. KYAAA!!!
- I thought that this euphoria will only last for a week. But what the hell? It’s been three weeks now!!! WTH
- #howtomoveon SHIRANAI!!!
- Yes! I’m getting crazy!!! I probably need to go the mental asylum Hahahaha *kidding
- BIGBANG WILL FOREVER BE MY, BEAUTIFUL HANGOVER

Part 3: A Fantastic Night with BIG BANG
Alive tour concert started 20 minutes after the scheduled time. That’s early considering our Filipino time. The venue was quite small and it was really hot inside. There were two big screens on both sides for those who will be seating at the farthest section. And every time their music videos were played, the VIPs can’t help their selves and scream! Kyaa! I was so excited as well, however I can’t scream like them because I just had my surgery. But I’m happy to be with these people. They’re really fantastic, energetic and purely awesome. I was also expecting how the missions will turn up and hoping as well that it will be successful.

Fantastic Baby video on the big screen. And that's my baby JiYong ♥
Then the lights were turned off and the AVP intro started to play. OH. MY. GAWD! THIS IS REALLY IT!!!!!! And then the time capsules were slowly opened revaling the boys!. Everybody screamed like there’s no tomorrow. The arena suddenly turned into a pandemonium! It was really loud! Then GDragon started to rap on their opening song, Still Alive. F@ck! ASJKHFSE!!!! The crowd went wild again! WAAAHHH! I was pinching myself if what’s happening is only a dream. My goodness! I’m wrong and they’re the real thing! And I’m all glued!
When the boys came out from the time capsule! Let's start the party!
Taeyang inside the time capsule (first photo) and on fire (second photo).
Starstrucked over Daesung! Sorry for the blurry shot.
I was afraid that my camera will be confiscated because I kept on taking photos.
The closest members to us were Taeyang and Daesung. Young Bae went to our side first and showed off his amazing dance moves. He’s really cool and hyper! Kyaa! Then Daesung stood up right in front of us. And I was like, ‘Oh My Gawd!’ He’s so charming and flawless. I was really surprised that he’s really good-looking. And to those who are saying his ugly, I’m raising my middle finger to all of you babos! DaeDae’s smile was so warm and infectious. And those smile instantly turned me into a Daesung bias. He’s so adorable. Oh! Did I mention that Taeyang and Daesung smiled at me? I just died on that moment. If only I can scream. Saranghae ♥

Believe me. Until now, I'm still on cloud nine after watching last Wednesday's concert. I can't even think on how to start this fan account because every time I reminisce, my feeling starts to burst again with happiness. Then I would just end up watching fan cams and looking at their photos. KYAAAA!!!
Everything was surreal. Dream like. No words can describe the feelings I have during my bias' first concert here in the Philippines.
So let me start narrating my experience. Just a warning, I'll be starting not only on the concert day itself, but also my journey before the event. This is going to be a bit long so bear with me VIPs. Kamsahamnida.

Part 1: (I can’t think of an appropriate title)
Before Big Bang even announced the list of countries included for their Alive World tour, we’ve been praying hard that Philippines will be one of them. Thus we’re already saving up for the event. Then, last May, it was confirmed. OHEMGEE!!! This is my chance to see my idols perform on stage! KYAAA!!!
But a series of unfortunate events happened to me. I got sick (or should I say I’m still sick) and underwent a surgery. The money I was saving up for the concert was now reserved for my medication. I’ve also decided not to watch the concert and accepted that I will never see them. Supposedly, I planned on buying the VIP ticket. I Even filed for a vacation months before the big day. Everything has to be set aside and prioritize my health first.
I thought it was really okay not to come and party with my fellow VIPS. Considering, they are my KPop bias and I’m a certified VIP, I really did not care if I can’t see them perform live. My unnies and chingus even persuaded me countless of times to watch it and just get the cheapest ticket if I’m worried about the cost. But I was firm with my decision. My thinking was, to just buy the DVD of the tour if YG will release one. That’s what I thought.
Not until I read the PHVIP missions for the concert. I suddenly realized that it is a once in a lifetime experience and I need to be there no matter what. While reading the missions, I was imagining Big Bang singing all their hits in front of me. *screams I got ecstatic and my heart jumped to happiness. This realization happened just three weeks before the big day. Only 21 days left and I’m broke! Otoke?! Otoke?!
Because of my condition, I need someone to accompany me. I asked my namja chingu to go with me and watch the concert. He’s such a supportive boyfriend and so he agreed with my decision. *hugs and kisses. And since I’m broke, we will just buy the cheapest ticket. The seats may be too far from the boys but for sure, there will be big screens so it’s fine.
Only a week left and I still haven’t purchased the tickets. Why? Because I was still asking for my parent’s permission. Yeah. I’m already 26 and still under my parent’s loving care. But that’s our house rule ever since. And I’ve learned to live with that. And you don’t know how strict my parents are when it comes to watching concerts and getting home late. Would you believe if I say that the last time I’ve watched a concert was when I’m still on my sophomore (high school) year?! It was not even considered a concert because it was a benefit concert for the Payatas tragedy victims and was only held on our school grounds. PNE was the artist that time.
Going back, my parents did not say yes on my first attempt and on my second as well. They were worried about what’s going to happen during the concert (stampede, explosions, riots etc.etc) and for my current condition as well. Finally, the third attempt was a success. YES! I just told them that namja chingu will accompany me to the concert. I was so happy. But I know, they’re still wishing that I would change my mind and not go to the event.
The night before I was about to buy the tickets, I was informed that Gen Ad were already sold out. Huhuhuhu. I’m so hapless. Other seats are still available but I can’t spend too much for those seats. The only way I can think of was joining contests (yes, plural because I’m desperate). I slept late and tweeted for Hapee Sy’s Hapee hour and even joined the Monster RX contests sponsored by Jinri Park. There was also this doodle / drawing / poster-making contest which I failed to join. And I really hate myself because I know I can do way better than the winners. I did not win in all of the contests I’ve joined. Hahahaha. I also tried posting on group’s for VIPs selling their extra tickets. However, only few confirmed and those who replied to me offered it for a higher price, I’m desperate but I’m still sane so I did not take the bait.
