My Journey

Awards Night

13/08/2017

"Hey guys!" I said to my vlogging camera "Tonight is gonna be a good night, tonight it is the Teen Choice Awards!!!! And guess who came a week ago?" My twin brothers pop up "The best brothers ever!!! Sorry Vanessa, we still remember you"
"Yeah, but not too much" Mario, one for my twins, said.
"Alba, don't you think you should address something?" Lucas, my other twin, said.
"What do you mean?" I said looking at him.
"Well, that we were all born at the same time." Lucas added.
"Actually, yeah. If you already knew you are an OG. I mean 30,000 subscribers"
"And now you are nominated to 1 Teen Choice Award and have 3,000,000 subscribers"
"That is something I also want to address too, yesterday we hit 4 million subscribers!!!!!!!!!! Isn't that crazy!?!?!?" I said the most excited I've ever been in my life. "Plus it's also been a year since I moved to LA"
"WOW, time goes by too fast" Mario said.
"Here comes Mario's philosophy lesson!" Lucas says as he throws himself on the couch.
"Guys, get ready. It won't be long till the car comes to pick us up"
"Is it time for a montage?" Lucas head popped up on the flip screen of my camera.
"Yeah. Wanna turn the screen black for the transition?" I said as I walked towards Lucas and switching the camera from me to him.
"Can I?" Lucas says looking super excited as I nodded. "I would seriously create my own channel just to do these black screens..." He finally made my screen go black and as I turned it off.

The car arrived just as I finished getting my make up done. I made sure I grabbed everything I was going to wear to the awards. Lucas and Mario were already dressed up, and they looked hot. Is it bad if I think that? I mean, they are pretty hot, but they are very shy. I am cringing just by the thought of it. Great, I can't sweat my make up off. Keep calm Alba. Just go down and get in the car.

As soon as we get in the car I take my phone out and open Snapchat.

"Hi guys, Lucas, Mario and I are now on our way to the awards. I am so excited and I hope I get to meet a bunch of you on the blue carpet."

"You are Alba right? The Spanish YouTuber?" The driver asked.
"Yeah, that's me." I said, kind of shyly.
"Oh, what are you nominated for?" He asked, trying to break the ice. You could tell there was a nervousness feeling coming from me.
"I am nominated for Choice YouTuber, but there are so many more amazing YouTubers nominated for this category too. I'm really nervous."
"Good luck! Hope you win." He said as he looked in the mirror and smiled at me.
"Thanks!" I smiled back.

"We have arrived, I have already got changed and I am ready to go where all the YouTubers are and hopefully meet some of them" I said to the camera constantly smiling.
"We all know which YouTubers she means when she says this." Mario says. I totally get why he's saying this... Damn it.
"Yeah, sure. They are actually gonna be here and I am probably gonna fangirl really hard when I see them." I say, picturing me meeting them. It doesn't look pretty. "Hey, can you film my outfit?" I say handing the camera to Mario.
"#outfitfortcas!!!! Work it, work it!!!!!!"
"Would you shut up!?!? I am trying to show them it." I say as I spin around and my dress goes all floaty. "Could you see my underwear?"
"If you could see it, I would've stopped filming." Mario said pretty serious.
"The only thing I'm worried about are these heels. I'm 17 and I've only worn heels twice before." I said looking down at them and laughing.
"One thing is for sure, they don't make you look like you were born in the 2000. You look older." Lucas said, and I gave him a death stare.
"Neither of you look like you were born the same time as me." I said as I grabbed the camera from Mario's hands and pointing it at them and showing how good they looked.
"This was achieved by soccer and gym. You are very pretty by sitting in your office, filming and watching videos." He said, sounding kind of pissed off.
"OK, shall we go to the carpet already? It's about time." I say pointing the camera at me.
