Nick and Knight "One More Time"

I hope everyone was able to hear the latest Nick and Knight song, "One More Time." If not, here's the link. You can buy it on Amazon and ITunes. New music from Nick is always something fun to look forward to and I'm enjoying the song. It's catchy and I hear mostly Nick so that's a plus for me. Now, Jordan's okay I guess, but Nick's my guy lol. Hope everyone likes the song.

I also wanted to mention that two I Heart Nick Carter clips have been released. The first one is entitled, "Will Nick Carter Still Have Fans Once He's Married" and the other is "Lauren Reveals Her First Impression of Nick Carter."

Let's discuss the first clip shall we? First off, I'm jealous of these fans that got to go to one of Nick's book signings. I wanted him to do one so bad in Chicago that I even tweeted Birdstreet Books, the publisher, about it. They said they were trying to get him to come to Chicago too, but Nick was too busy.

Second thought. You could tell some of the fans comments were scripted, especially the One Direction comment. I'm strictly a Backstreet Girl and always will be. Everyone else is a cheap imitation in my book. It was kind of funny how the fans were behaving. And here I thought I was the only big ol' dork who falls to pieces around Nick lol.

I did feel Nick's sincerity when he was worried about losing fans because he's getting married. For me, he'll always have my support no matter what and I've been a fan for most of those 21 years (took me a few years to find out about the BSB). I thought it was kind of funny that he said he is 34 years old and that it's time to get married. I don't feel that there is a specific time in someone's life that they should get married. I mean obviously the sooner you meet that person the better because you get more time with them in life, but to me there isn't a specific time to settle down.

As for the second video, it will probably upset some people. I find it odd that Lauren's first impressions of Nick were that he was "arrogant, stand-offish, and self-involved" because everytime I had the opportunity to talk to Nick at a show or vip, he's been so sweet and refreshing. Then they mention a connection. If I perceived someone as arrogant I would run the other way and not give them my time of day because my first impressions of people are usually spot on so I would have to go with my gut.

Speaking of first impressions of Nick, I'll elaborate a bit more on mine. Well, very first impression was on tv seeing the "As Long As You Love Me" video. This was after I first heard BSB on the radio and then watched the VH1 countdown to see how they looked. I know this isn't a real first impression because I wasn't meeting him, but I definitely noticed Nick the most out of the group ;)


First time I met Nick. This was on a very, very cold winter night in Milwaukee, Wisconsin at The Rave when he did his Now or Never solo tour. I was waiting six hours with my dad (poor guy lol) outside freezing when Nick finally came outside of his tour bus. There were maybe six other girls waiting and his bodyguards said no pictures and of course I was the only naïve one who listened. Anyway, I was the last one to approach him and my dad literally had to push me towards him because I was so shocked Nick was right in front of me lol. (I think my dad was a little pissed that I didn't go right up after waiting six hours in the cold haha). I remember both Nick and I just staring at each other and then I finally said "I'm glad to finally meet you" and Nick signed a piece of paper I gave him (the pen was almost frozen) and our fingers touched when he handed me back the paper and he went inside. He didn't say anything, but he was still nice to sign an autograph and I didn't feel no arrogance there. Here's Nick walking into the venue after he signed my autograph and me all cheesed up after meeting Nick for the first time!



Technically, that should be considered my first impression of Nick but I really think of the time when I was able to do vip for the first time at his I'm Taking Off show in Chicago. I was beyond excited that day. He was SO nice to me. I was able to give him a letter I wrote and a necklace. He said he loved the necklace and put it on right away and that just made my heart melt. He hugged me so sweetly and was rubbing my back when we took the picture. I was so excited that I couldn't open my eyes lol. I didn't want to leave his side, but I forced myself to leave before I got in trouble. I also remember tearing up after the moment happened. A few days later he friended me on his website and that really touched my heart. This is the moment that defines Nick for me and becomes my first impression of him. With Now or Never, he was going through a lot of crap and wasn't his true self yet, but I definitely think he came into his own by the time I met him during the last solo tour.


As for BSB news, our boys have been inducted into the walk of fame in Locarno Switzerland! So happy for BSB! They deserve it! Congrats! I like AJ's rock n' roll print. Nice touch.


BSB gave us the opportunity to have some more urturn fun with coming up with a #BSBCruise2014 picture with the guys. Here's mine. I enjoy doing these. Made me more excited for the cruise!

 
As for the BSB unrelated part of my life, last week was scary. I once again had to go back and forth to the hospital, but this time for my brother. He had a heart attack in the early morning last Tuesday. By the grace of God, he is okay, but this was scary. He has to stop smoking and change his eating habits and I'm proud of him because he's already working on that. He's too young for this. They had to put a stent in and they said if he didn't call an ambulance, he wouldn't have made it. They also said that if the blockage was 2 cm below or above where it was, they would have had to do open heart surgery. I'm so thankful that my brother is okay, but that was so scary. I'm so tired and stressed with my parents illnesses and now this. Thank God he is okay. Enough is enough. I can't wait for the day I can post some more positive news on here, but because of all of these illnesses I'm working very hard on losing weight and getting healthy. I guess that's the positive of this all.
 
Hope everyone has a great week!
