The Cruise is Next Week...Ahhh!

I’m very excited and nervous for the cruise next week! I can’t wait, but I still have to pack, empty out my camera memory cards, and make some sort of door decoration. I can’t believe it’s coming up that soon and that I’m going again…seriously pinch me!

Not only am I fortunate enough to go on the cruise, yesterday I purchased a ticket for Nick’s dinner that he’s doing the night before the cruise starts. Still don’t know the location and time, but I’m that crazy for Nick and it feels good to be a little spontaneous lol. It was tweeted that it's almost sold out so I don't regret purchasing the ticket this quick. I also hope we keep this intimate and not have a huge group. 

Nick did tweet that it will be near the port of Miami and since it’s a dinner, I should be in the area for sure around that time. This will be something different for me so I’m sure I’ll enjoy it. Meet and greet, dinner, and Nick singing and playing his guitar sounds like a perfect way to celebrate before the cruise. Plus, I’ll count this as Nick’s solo event that could have been on the cruise. (Kinda bummed that Nick, Brian, and Kevin have no solo events on the cruise. I didn't try to participate with Howie and AJ's casino stuff because the only card game I know how to play is solitaire.)  

Update: Just checked Twitter and Eddie said it'll be at the Hard Rock Cafe and that's the same restaurant me and a BSB friend ate at last year before the cruise. How funny! The food was good, but could have been better. Also, maybe I'll be able to pick up some KISS merch for my brother there. What's even more funny though is yesterday when I heard about this, I was telling my dad that I think the Hard Rock Cafe would be big enough for this and then I was concerned about the time and me being able to make it there. I said if it's dinner it shouldn't be any earlier than 4 p.m. because we aren't old people lol and Eddie tweeted something along those lines.So many Backstreet coincidences lately. It'll be really easy for me to get there too! Yay!

I really need this vacation so I’m highly anticipating everything! Got my outfits all ready for each party. Not too happy about how my Studio 54 outfit is coming along just because it doesn’t look too 70ish to me, but I didn’t go the hippie route because Studio 54 was more glamorous than that. Also, I have to come up with my outfit for Nick’s dinner. 

As for the Wylee party, I’ll only be going if I win Leighanne’s contest. Otherwise, I’ll be utilizing the pool and hot tub at the hotel for as long as I can lol. 

Definitely won’t be swimming with dolphins since I’m doing Nick’s dinner and I won’t be doing any excursions at Half Moon Cay. I did want to visit South Beach this time since last time I ended up going to Bayside Marketplace, but I don’t think I’ll have time to go to South Beach. Kind of wish I arrived in Miami Wednesday, but too late for that now and that would mean more money spent on another hotel stay. 

I’ve realized I’ve had so many firsts thanks to BSB-cruising, Bahamas, soundchecks, after parties, making a duct tape outfit…this list could go on. They really help me to live life to the fullest! 

Oh, the nerves and excitement!
