I woke up that morning with excitement rushing through my body like it was on fire. I sat up on my bed and looked at all the faces staring back at me.

JJ Hamblett - he had the best dress sense anyone could imagine, he never failed to look smart. 

Jaymi Hensley - such a strong voice and a fabulous personality. 

George Shelley - those curls, and the cutest smile ever. 

And Joshua Cuthbert - perfection. His eyes, his smile, his hair. Everything. 

I know us fangirls weren't supposed to have a 'favourite' but secretly we all did. And Josh was always my favourite. Which is what makes my story so interesting. People dream about it, but it never actually happens. Well not in most cases anyway. 

It was that morning when it all started. As I sat there in my bed looking at the posters of my favourite boyband which covered every inch of wall there was, I thought about how today was the day when I was going to see them in concert - Union J were in Manchester and they were performing here tonight and I had tickets. 

Joyously, I jumped out of bed, and looked through my wardrobe wondering what I could possibly wear that night. I had no idea. I remember sitting there on my bed foolishly thinking that this could be the day I finally meet Josh Cuthbert and we live happily ever after even though I knew I didn't have a VIP ticket, so I wouldn't be meeting them at all.  Not that I would be able to as I would probably of ended up passing out. The thought of even seeing Union J in person and speaking to them just made me anxious back then. I never thought any of my dreams would come true though. 

 Quickly, I ran over to my iPod docking station and started playing Union J's album, thinking that I may as well start getting myself in the mood for the concert later that night. Despite the amount of noise I was making, I started singing and dancing all around my room. Moreover, you really wouldn't of thought I was an 18 year old girl if you had saw me, the way I was dancing around - wow. 

Just then, I heard my Mum shout me down for breakfast. I remember running down the stairs as fast as I could, besides nearly tripping over my dog on the way down. 

Maybe it's time I actually introduce myself to you. Cheryl. That's what I'm called. I always thought it was a really glamorous name - whereas I never thought of myself as very glamorous at all. It always reminded me of Cheryl Cole who was a singer during my teenage years. She was very glamorous indeed; Ms Cole was a very beautiful, confident woman. Furthermore, I was just a young girl, who had no idea what I wanted to do with my life - except stalk my favourite band members. 

In conclusion, even though I didn't think I was very glamorous, other 'people' definitely did - people I would never have imagined. Especially just at eighteen years old. Truthfully, I never imagined the life I have now, and if anyone had told me the way I would be living my life now, at 40 years old, I would of never believed them because it doesn't usually happen to an average girl like me; it's usually the beautiful 'glamorous' models from magazines that this sort of thing happens to. 

After breakfast, I went upstairs and got myself ready for the Union J concert that night. Eventually, I found something to wear. At the back of my wardrobe,I found one of my old dresses. Praying that it would fit, I tried it on and thankfully it did. After much thought, I decided I was going to wear it to the concert that night. I got ready, and at 5pm, after I had done my hair, make-up and got everything ready, I was finally ready to go to the concert. 

I felt as though I looked perfect. Which was unusual for me because I never used to think I looked good, but that night was different, I actually thought I looked acceptable. Maybe it was because I had actually put an effort into my appearance for once - I was never scruffy, I always had showers and I was clean, but I just never used to be that bothered about what my hair looked like, my make-up looking great, or having a boyfriend. I was quite care-free which could of been a good or bad thing.
