December 13, 2009, today is the siku I start my tour and I was packing my bags. I walked downstairs and Blanket grabbed on to my shati crying. I picked him up and he wrapped his arms around my neck. He said” please don’t go”, I said” I’ll be back on krisimasi Eve”. I haven’t seen my tour bus yet and it’s waiting for me in the driveway. With Blanket still in my arms I walked outside so I could say goodbye to everyone. Prince, Paris and Grandma were inayofuata to my tour bus. My bus had a mural of me moonwalking on juu of my name and of my dad passing me his rhinestone glove, glovu with the word LEGECY underneath him. I said” OK Blanket wewe have to let go of me now”. Prince took him from me and I gave them each a hug. Blanket was now in Princes arms and I said” I will be back, I upendo wewe but wewe need to stop crying au you’re going to make yourself throw up”. Grandma passed me a bag and I said” what is this”? She said” just a little something I found at your dads”. I pulled out my toy story mto cases from 1996 and said” wow these are so old”. I hugged her and waved goodbye as I got on the bus. When I got inside I was star-struck. There is two flat screen TVs, two bedrooms, Xbox 360, a six headed kuoga and a full sized kitchen. Uncle Frank said” did I get wewe a sweet set up au what”? I went and opened a bag of chips and turned on the Xbox. Sitting down I said” I could get used to this”. Tony the bus driver started driving and we set off for Maine because I want to work my way down the states. When it was time to eat we stopped at K.F.C. When I was about to take a sip of my soda uncle Frank put something in front of me. I said” Is that cement in a cup”? He said” no that is your protein drink”. I alisema with a disgusted look on my face” it’s grey”. He alisema “just drink it fast”. I picked it up and tipped it upside down over my mouth. Uncle Frank had to tap the cup with a spoon to get it to come out. The drink was so gross I ran into the bathroom gaging. He said” if wewe throw it up wewe will have to drink another one”. Trying not to puke I opened the door and said” that was the most awful thing I have ever had in my life”!!! He alisema laughing” well get used to it because wewe have to drink them every day”. To think that this is only the beginning, WOW…..

December, 14, 2009, I can’t believe I’m finally at this point in my life. I waited so long for my moment and it’s just a few hours away!!! I was sitting backstage at the Portland civic center craving a slice of pizza. I hate the fact I have my dairy intake restricted before I perform. Uncle Frank was looking out the window and said” oh my god Alanna wewe have to come see this, it is CRAZY”. I looked out the window and thousands of mashabiki were lining the sidewalks. My eyes widened as I stood there silently with my mouth open. He put his arm on my shoulder and said” wewe ready for this kid…you have some big shoes to fill, even zaidi so a legacy to continue”? I shook my head yes in shock. What he whispered in my ear inayofuata has a huge impact on me. He said” remember kid every siku creates your HISTORY”. It is four dakika before I am going on stage and I’m crouched down in the elevator that is about to shoot me onto the stage. I can hear the mashabiki counting backwards….5….4….3…..2……1. I shoot up and firmly plant my feet on the stage. As I put my sunglasses in my pocket I remember what my dad had alisema about making the mashabiki wait for it. I unzip my koti, jacket and throw it to the side. Then I pointed to my right hand and don’t stop till wewe get enough started. I let out an”ooooo” and the crowd went wild. After that I sung three zaidi songs and stopped to talk to the fans. I said” how wewe guys doing tonight”? They started screaming and I said” come on I know wewe can be louder than that’’. They got super loud and I said” that’s what I’m talking about”. Someone came out and put a kinyesi behind me. I said” let me ask wewe something…….do wewe ever wonder…..WHO’S LOVING YOU”? This song is a real test on my vocal skills. I belted out the words” wheeeeeeeeeen I had wewe I treated wewe baddddddddddd and wrong, my dear”. I saw tears roll down faces of mashabiki and said” hold the hand of the person inayofuata to you”. After that song there was an intermission and I went back stage to change outfits. I quickly put on my Billie Jean pants as Uncle Frank held a water bottle for me. Right before going onstage he said” good luck kid”. I put my brief case on the kinyesi then snapped my fingers and a spotlight appeared. I put the fedora hat on my head then slid on the rhinestone glove. When I moonwalked across the stage it felt so good. The only song left was thriller. I danced like I had never danced before and I think I’m getting used to wearing the suit. When I made my exit balloons fell from the ceiling. When I got backstage Uncle Frank gave me a huge hug and said” your father would have been so proud you. He passed me the phone and it was my whole family on speaker phone. I said” it was epic wewe guys, but I’m out of breath so I can’t talk I upendo you”. I could not wait to have some pizza and get some sleep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
