Michael Jackson in London!!!


So I am soooo excited! Last night Gio and purchased tickets to see Michael Jackson In London! It is on January 16, 2010. Long story short I heard about him going on tour again so of course I had to research it out. I found out that he would be doing 10 shows this July in London and that was the end of it, he wouldn't be touring anymore. I decided that I would sign up for the presale tickets just to see prices never expecting much out of it. They went on sale on the 11th at 7am London time. That means I stayed up until 1am to try and buy tickets. The first night I couldn't get through and after an hour of trying I finally gave up and went to bed. I was so disappointed when I woke up because I knew that there was no way that I would be able to go. I decided to check my e-mail for updates and they had sent me an update that said they had added 20 more shows going through Septmember! So I tried again.... no luck and more disappointment. Last night I decided that I would try one last time and then if it didn't work it wasn't ment to be. I checked my email around 10 and there was one more update... because the sales were so overwhelming they added another 10 shows in January 2010! They would be available at 7am (1am in Utah!) I was determined that I was going to get those tickets so I set my alarm for 12:55 and logged into ticketmaster watching the clock slowly tick by. I logged in and clicked on a show.... sold out.... clicked on another show.... sold out..... the third time i clicked on the last show and it went through! It only took my a couple of minutes to check my seats and I started going through the purchasing process, when I was finished and pressed next it kicked me out saying that my session was timed out. NOOOO!!! My heart was racing and I was all sweaty I was hurring as fast as I could. I finally got through and paid for the tickets! Surprisingly they were extremely affordable... its getting there that will cost us but it is SOOOO worth it. Not only do I get to see the GREATEST ENTERTAINER OF ALL TIME I get to go to LONDON on top of it!!! This is a dream come true for me and Gio and something that I never thought would happen in my lifetime. I can't wait!!! ( I know you all think that I am crazy right now but You'll all be jealous in January when I go on the coolest vacation ever!) Needless to say I was so excited afterward I couldn't get to sleep... I felt like it was Christmas morning!!! I also made myself sick to my stomach because it was so intense trying to get them!! I'm a dork.... But I'm a very happy excited dork!!! HAHAHA
