Almost four years ago, I saw Adele in concert at some Jewish Synagogue in DC with two good friends of mine. She had just released 19 and was only getting a little airplay on VH1 at the time for Chasing Pavements (a brilliant song by the way). Tickets to her show only cost $15. To this day, it was hands down on the best concerts I’ve ever been to. After the show, she waited outside the front entrance where her tourbus was and signed every autograph and posed for every picture for any fan that wanted one. She was gracious and kind, humble and sweet yet hilarious and so charming. After blinding her with my flash for the first photo, she gave a cackling laugh and joked at how horrible that picture would be and posed for yet another photo. I was so embarrassed yet so happy that I was actually meeting and talking with her! She was just so down to earth and friendly!
I knew I had just met a great artist and singer, but little did I know she would go to become one of music’s most talented and respected artists of our generation.

HOW TO: Take Over The Wizarding World of Harry Potter (and the rest of Florida)
Inspired by Tyler Oakley’s HOW TO: Take Over Tokyo/Thailand videos, Robyn’s Hang with Me music video, and Daniel’s Escape from Wonderland video, I decided to record my trip to Florida.
Getting to road trip from Virginia with three great friends = the time of my life.
Going on a roadtrip to Orlando with some buddies for a few days. So excited!
I ditched all my NYE plans with my friends and spent it with my wonderful family back home in Virginia. New Year’s Day in my household involves a lot of a family, a TON of food, and being thankful for the year we’ve had and hoping for a healthy, successful and happy upcoming year.
Family comes first. Enjoy every moment with them, however little that time may be. You’ll be remembering these moments with them 50 years from now and not the crazy party that you got too shitfaced to remember anyways. Besides, I can always party hard when I’m not able to go home for NYE and I’m sure that’ll be a riot.
P.S. I need a tripod.
P.P.S. People told me white denim was a no-no, so I bought some just to prove them wrong. Dress how you like and fuck what people think.
