2. My first concert
It is inevitable to remember the first concert I attended, it was in 2014. I was 16 years old and I remember when they announced that the fashionable boyband of those years, ONE DIRECTION, would come to Chile, there were four British boys and an Irishman who made up this band.
The five members of this band appear separately to a program in England called X Factor, which was looking for new musical talents. However, to avoid eliminating five young people with great talents, they met and within the same program presented themselves as a band, without previously knowing each other.
From the first moment they sang together, it was possible to notice how much the young audience liked it, mainly, and although they did not win the program, their fame when it ended was already crossing the border.
So they did four world tours; the first three in Europe, Asia and North America, and the last was the one that reached Chile.
I loved them and I said: - Obviously I have to go. I did not have money and my mother was not going to give me either, so I decided to take out some savings that I had saved in a savings book and with that I financed the entrance.
Since no one in my family liked music in English, no one was going to accompany me, so I decided to go alone anyway.
I remember that I could not buy the ticket for the first date, but days later they announced that they would come a second day, so without thinking about it, I bought it, on the court as well.
The day of the concert was April 30 and since it was on the court in order of arrival, I decided that I was going to stay to sleep outside the national stadium in line. I contacted a girl I did not know on facebook and the night before we met there.
It was an extremely long night, I slept little and I was very cold, but when it was time to go in to position ourselves in our places, everyone was running, there was a lot of excitement in the environment. And since I was from the night before, I managed to get a place very forward on the court, although it did not last long. I'm small, I'm 1.53 cm tall, so I was choking and they were squeezing me too much. I remember it was a hot day, many people passed out from the same thing and it was hours before the concert started, it was chaos.
In the end, I chose to give up my place and go to the back of the court, where there were much less people and air, from there I managed to see something and concentrated mainly on listening to live singing and living the moment to always remember it, It was going to be an experience that I would never repeat again.
To be my first experience in a concert, it was wonderful, while they sang I completely forgot how tired and sore I was and the show was very beautiful, obviously I had tears falling with some songs and I couldn't believe that I was seeing them live, it was like a dream.
The finishing touch was fireworks at the end of the concert and its final farewell for the fans.
Coming home, I took the subway and I was so tired that I fell asleep standing on the subway, it was definitely an unforgettable experience.



One Direction was a very successful band, I remember listening their hits more than once. Now, its members have very good songs, too.
