i got tagged by my lovely Janet (thank you *hugs*) @cappiecat

so I did the challenge and I encourage all Angels to do this!!!! Promote Teen Top!!!!

warning hamster face and disturbing mole alert LOL

- this was after KCON concert. so we just saw their live stage, and it was at the end of a very very very long day. so don't mind me looking like crap, and of course there is the beautiful Honei (the princess and the pauper here)

- dont judge my pj!! LMAO

- this happened at 2AM in Honei's room. if you're wondering why i had that towel/blanket covering my mouth, it was to make sure i didn't wake anyone up with my screaming.

- you will hear Honei warning me multiple times not to hit her since i basically abused her while we watched the 2nd teaser together

- yes, i did leave the scene after CAP showed his sexy back CUZ I COULDN'T HANDLE THAT AT 2AM, OKAY. i literally ran off from Honei's bed and went to the corner by the door and stayed there in crouching position until Honei told me to get back and finish the MV.

- if you don't wanna be our friends anymore after watching this, I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND LMAO

After being unlucky and NOT winning anything from the original vouchers from my KCON ticket, I went on a mission to get myself either a fansigning voucher or a hi touch voucher (I am too lazy to explain what and how these vouchers work, but if you really want to know, leave me an ask and I'll explain it). After searching for people around the whole KCON venue for about an hour, somebody finally sold me their hi touch voucher. I was still wanting a fansigning voucher, but I told myself I should be satisfied with hi touch.

WELL. Teen Top artist engagement session was scheduled to be on Sunday, August 25, at 12.30PM. Since most of the Angel United staff had a Teen Top voucher, we had to wrap some things up at the booth before we could line up. Thank you to Sooin who was willing to man the booth for us T^T You're the best. Around 11AM we sent the staff who had viewing to the event line. By 11.30AM all of us were already lining up. It was a HOT day to be lining up, let me tell you. IT WAS HOT, OKAY. We were all complaining about how we wouldn't be presentable to meet Teen Top if we had to be in the sun any longer LMAO. I was all sweaty and yucky aghdskgajkdsgahkgdk.

After being in line for about 45 minutes, KCON staff gave us a stupid news. Teen Top Artist Engagement session was pushed back to 4.30PM. We freaked out. 2 things. First, it is NEVER good when something is pushed back. NEVER. My first worry was, "WILL THIS EVEN HAPPEN?!" I was so afraid we would just end up not having a Teen Top event. Second, the line for the M!Countdown concert was supposed to start at 4PM. Thus, we wouldn't be able to line up early for the concert.

But what could we do? We went back to the booth and resumed booth activity. We decided that we would just be closing down the booth early so we could go straight to the concert line after Teen Top event.

I will skip some boring parts and jump to 4.30PM, when KCON finally got their act together and began to let us into the artist engagement area. Now... I apologize in advance because you will start to see CAPS LIKE THIS due to uncontrolled emotions. Forgive me.

Let me tell you about the area for the artist engagement event. It is somewhat "underground". I'm not sure how else I can described it. It is a pretty open area and they had some sort of a tarp to shield the sun. The stage is medium size and it's high. The fans area is divided into 3 sections. The closest to the stage is for fans with fansigning voucher. Right behind it is the area for fans with hi touch voucher. And the last one is for fans with audience viewing voucher.

So, it took a while for everyone to be let in. And there was a host who entertained us while we wait for Teen Top to arrive. Actually, he wasn't there to entertain us. BUT, since KCON kept delaying and delaying and delaying the start of the event, the host ended up having to keep us entertained. I just need to at least dedicate one sentence to give a shout out to our host. HE WAS AMAZING, OKAY. He had to fill up like maybe 15-20mins of waiting time with jokes and stories and he was so willing to do it and was a lot of fun. Hats off to the dude. Thanks, man, you were awesome!

In the midst of waiting, we were able to get a HUGE BANNER displayed in front of the line. YO, YO, TRISH, GOOD JOB ON THAT BANNER! The banner reads TEEN TOP and I'm being serious when I say it's huge! The host asked Trish about the banner and he was SO AMAZED when she told him it took 10 hours to make. It almost seemed like he suddenly realized that he got some no joke Angels in this event LMAO. We also got to ask for his permission to sing Happy Birthday for Niel. He was so kind and told us that we could do it!

The moment finally arrived and they announced that Teen Top was coming. DUDE. ASGDHASJKGDHJKASDGKSAGHKASGHKDASGDKASGHKJASGDASKDGHASKGDASGHJKDASDHJKASGHDJASGHJKASGHDJSAKK. They walked in from the side and I JUST COULDN'T KEEP CALM. UGH THEY ALL LOOK SO GOOD AND I COULDN'T BELIEVE THEY WERE JUST RITE THERE IN FRONT OF MY VERY EYES. no more laptop screen HUHUHUHUHUHUHUHU SO AMAZING. As soon as they were on the stage, I attempted to start singing the Happy Birthday song -- twice LMAO but my voice must have been too weak. CAP had already begun his introduction and I thought we lost the chance to sing it for Niel. But Chunji got cock blocked by some fans from the far side from me who just started singing Happy Birthday. This time it was loud enough for a lot of us to hear and everyone jumped on the train. DUDE, TEEN TOP'S FACES WHEN WE STARTED SINGING LOL. I think they didn't realize that it was a birthday song at first, so they were so confused XDD L.Joe was the first one who got it and he started singing with us as well. And when Niel found out it was for him GASHDKGASHJKGHDJKSHKSGHDKASGHKGASJKDGASHJKGDAJHSGDKASGDJKASGKGSK PRICELESS. After we were done, Chunji casually resumed his introduction LMAO ooh, poor chunji boy XDD

Did I tell you the host was the best? You know what he did? He told the boys about the banner Trish made. YESH HE DID. The fans in the front line actually held up the banner and Teen Top said thank you a few times TT____TT They are such nice boys *sobs* Also, Teen Top was asked about their new song and there is a friend of mine (Jamie, who I mentioned previously) who happened to be in the first row and had a poster with their new song written on it. AND DO U GUYS KNOW WHAT NIEL DID?!??!? (and I believe Changjo, as well, my vision was blocked) HE POINTED AT THE POSTER AND SAID, "THAT'S RIGHT!" OMG NIEL CAN YOU PLS NOT ASGHDJASKGDHKGASHJKDGAHKHJGKD SO CUTE! Here's my fancam of everything up to this point:

After a few more questions, Teen Top was asked to give their fanservice. Yup, their famous aegyo XDD Most of you probably have seen better fancams of this, but I gotta upload mine anyways LMAO PLS IGNORE MY OBSESSIVE SPAZZING OF NIEL

The Q&A session actually wasn't as long as I expected. It ended pretty quick. And soon enough it was time for the actual engagement session. We had been told that it would first be the hi touch, followed by the fansigning. When the host announced that they would begin the hi touch I was all spazztic OMG couldn't think straight. It's a good thing I had already plan something in advance, so I knew what I wanted to do. I had plan to record the audio of the event with my phone. I thought it would be something for me to remember this amazing opportunity with. I knew I couldn't record fancam of myself LOL, so I just had my voice recorded on and I frantically lined up with other fans up to the stage.

Now, the video below is a clip from theultimatedodo's fancam. Credit for the video goes to her. She was one of the fans who got the fansigning and she recorded everything from the beginning up to the end of the hi touch event. BLESS YOU SOUL, GURL!! With her permission, I made a cut of my part and combined it with my audio recording. I would recommend for you to watch the whole fancam, though, because she took an AMAZING one.

Okay, there are 2 girls in the beginning wearing halos. The second one is Honei =D I am the only one who almost fell in front of Niel. And now here is the breakdown of what happened during that very short 25 seconds which by all means DID NOT SEEM LIKE 25 SECONDS AT ALL to me at that time:

- I walked up the stairs to the stage and I almost froze with excitement, fear, adrenaline rush, and everything else combined together. I told myself not to cry T^T

- Changjo was the first in line and as I approached him while saying, "Changjo, saranghaeyo!" I had my hands up to give him a high five. He very politely said, "Kamsahabnida!" in return. He looked straight into my eyes, and said that with a sweet smile, his eyes widened as he spoke, his head was slightly tilted to the left. He was the maknae for that moment OMG LET ME SQUISH YOU

- As I moved to Niel, I was already shaking so bad. I said, "Niel, saranghaeyo!" I was STARING INTO HIS EYES AND JUST BASK IN THE GLORIOUSNESS OF HIS BEAUTIFUL FACE AND HIS FIGURE AND WHOLE BEING RITE IN FRONT OF ME OMG THERE R NO WORDS TO POSSIBLY CONVEY HOW I FELT HE REALLY WAS SO AMAZING. NIEL IS INDEED A GLORIOUS BEING. He smiled and bowed a bit, AND OUT OF THE BLUE, SO SUDDENLY, HE LET OUT A SHRIEK AND HIS EYES JUST GOT SO BIG AND I SAW HIS HAND POINTED AT ME. I INSTANTLY REALIZED HE RECOGNIZED ME AND I COULDN'T KEEP MY COOL ANYMORE. I LITERALLY SCREAMED AND I FELT MYSELF STARTED TO FALL DOWN. MY KNEES JUST GAVE WAY AND I WAS ABOUT TO CRY T^T Fortunately before I actually fell, I managed to talk myself out of my hysteria and I kept telling myself, "GET UP, BEA. NOT NOW. DON'T FALL NOW." Thank goodness I could continue OMG I was SO LIGHTHEADED. Not in my wildest dream I thought this could happen. I LOVE NIEL SO MUCH OMG.

- The bad part about high five-ing Chunji right after Niel is that I end up not having a good memory of what happened. All I remember was that Chunji was laughing (and after watching the fancam I realized he was indeed laughing at me, u damn brat) and I remember him holding up a different hand than all the others. He was also standing facing the other way, so I clearly remember thinking, "DUDE, IT'S ALREADY HARD FOR ME TO STAND STRAIGHT, DO U ALSO HAVE TO MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR ME TO HIGH FIVE U" He just had to make me turn and high five him LOL

- CAP moment went by too fast for me to remember anything OTL I remember telling him, "Saranghaeyo, CAP!" and I remember being SO IMPRESSED WITH HIS FACE. CAP IS RIDICULOUSLY GORGEOUS IN REAL LIFE. I DID NOT EXPECT THAT. HIS FACE IS GLOWING AND FLAWLESS. MAN, HE WAS HOT.

- L.Joe. LOOOOOL I can't stop laughing whenever I remember high five-ing him. Do you guys know his lost puppy look? The face he makes which usually accompanied by his awkward smile? THAT WAS THE FACE HE HAD when I high five-ed him. LOOOL he looked SO LOST and I just wanted to like wake him up LMAO. he was really, really cute XDD and don't ask me why in my audio recording it sounds like i said Chunjoe instead of L.Joe OTL how did THAT happen OTL

- BABY RICKY OMG HE WAS SO SPECIAL ASGDHASKGDKAHGSK He was standing pretty far from L.Joe so there was a gap where I could think for a bit before approaching him. I said, "Ricky, saranghaeyo!" like with the others and he had this shy smile on his face and he didn't give me a high five, HE LITERALLY HELD MY HAND AND SQUEEZED IT. WHILE DOING SO HE SAID KAMSAHABNIDA AND HIS VOICE WAS SO SWEET and I was SO SHOCKED that he was holding on to my hand that I actually said "kamsahabnida" back to him. Really Ricky took me by surprise!

I cut off the audio after I left Ricky, but I was just dying and moaning and squealing like a maniac. We had to go down the stairs and then to the very back of the area where a lot of fangirls just lost their marbles there crying and hugging each other and screaming and all sorts of things. Honei went before me, and so I approached her and we just lost it. 1004 also joined us after and literally we just stood there watching the rest of the fans going up the stage and high five-ing Teen Top. I tried to take a few more fancams, but my whole body was shaking so bad I couldn't capture anything good. So I just gave up and just watched the rest of the event.

After the hi touch was done, the fans who got fansigning voucher went up and got their turn. KCON was stupid and instead of having Teen Top sign an album or sumthing, they had prepared autographed postcards for Teen Top members to hand out to the fans. I guess they had to do that to save time and to make sure everyone got their turn.

One special moment before the event ended and before Teen Top excused themselves. I can't remember who started it, but the fans just started singing "Lalalalalala" part from Miss Right and they did the arm shake dance. I thought that was SUCH A SWEET MOMENT. Teen Top looked so happy as they heard that and a few of them actually did the shake on stage as well. OMG I WAS SO HAPPY FOR THEM.

Before you read any more, let me just remind you that this particular part of my fanacct is focused on my days before KCON started. So if you want to read about Teen Top or the actual KCON or Angel United, just wait for or skip to my next fanacct.

I left San Francisco on Wednesday, August 21 around noon. I was supposed to get to the train station nearby Honei's (huniel) home at 11PM that day, BUT my train got delayed at Union Station and I didn't leave the station until about midnite. Honei was so so so nice and understanding and actually came to pick me up at the station a little bit past 1AM OTL I felt SO BAD, but was really thankful. She came with a friend of hers (who is also her roommate, Alexis or lexyinspired) and we all went straight home from there.

Honei and Alexis had been working on different things preparing for KCON. They did so much, but at the time were working on making the staff shirts. As soon as I arrived, Honei briefed me on what had been done and what still needed to be done to make sure that we were all on the same page. I stayed up that night working on making the stencils for the shirts and to participate in a google event (unrelated to Teen Top or KCON). The following days were filled with different activities to get ourselves ready to support Teen Top to the fullest at KCON.

I won't bore you all with specific details about all we did. But just to give you an idea of the craziness of the moment, we had to work on shirts, cake, gifts, supplies, and on top of that, we were on our toes about Teen Top's arrival time.

Okay, I need to dedicate one paragraph just for this. So I SPECIFICALLY planned out my days off work and all under the assumption that Teen Top would be arriving to the US BEFORE KCON actually started. We were expecting them to come either on Thursday or Friday. So we had been keeping track of the Seoul-LA flights since Wednesday night. AND THEY NEVER DID COME. ASGHDASGHDKGASHJKGDSAHJDSHKGDASHKGDHK SERIOUSLY LMAO WHY COULDN'T THEY COME WHEN WE EXPECTED THEM TO. Indeed, it all worked out for the best, but it didn't change the fact that we had to move a few important things around JUST CUZ THEY ENDED UP ARRIVING ON SATURDAY MORNING. Anyways, I felt like I was an expert on Asiana flight schedules and we would monitor twitter for preview pics during the times when they could possibly be taking the flight and it was just LOL. But as I said, everything turned out for the best. So I won't complain anymore XD

One event that needs to be mentioned as well is when Teen Top second teaser came out. It was Thursday night. We were working on different things, and I decided to check twitter for updates. That was when I saw that Teen Top released their second teaser for Rocking. I literally yelled and went frantic and told Honei and Alexis about it. HONEI IMMEDIATELY FORBID ME FROM WATCHING IT AND TOLD ME TO GET MY LAPTOP FOR EVERYONE TO SEE. Hesitantly, I did what she asked and we watched the second teaser together. Alexis recorded our reaction. Which was priceless. Uum, yeah. LOL

Honei got bruises from me using her as a punch bag and we spent AT LEAST the next 45 mins just watching the teaser OVER AND OVER AGAIN, literally just dropping whatever we were doing. LOLOLOL OH SUCH FANGIRLS ARE WE XDD
