Google Maps Jessica Kingsbury

Idea #1: My first idea is about how I traveled to concerts to go see the Jonas Brothers when I was a bit younger. The significance behind this is showing how willing some people are to go the extra mile to see their loved band or singer.

1) Bristow, Va.: It’s days to days before the concert and their tour bus pulls up to Target in the shopping center.My house, Get a phone call from dad saying the bus is at Target. Got dressed and during the process, managed to hurt my toe by dropping a drawer on it. Jonas Hysteria has started. 2) Bristow, Virginia Gateway Shopping Center: Arrived to the target parking lot and got to the bus, Jonas Brothers are not there and hurt my toe for nothing. I get the bright idea to actually go in target and look for them. No luck =(. Back outside to sign the bus and then back home.

3) Bristow, Nissan Pavillion (the name of the venue changes a few year later): First Jonas Brothers concert with my three best friends; Sarah, Brittany and Kat. Managed to get hurt in the process in the concert since we were sitting in the lawn. 4) Washington D.C., Verizon Center: Second Jonas Concert. Mass hysteria once again, this time with mother and cousin. Largest arena and concert I have ever been to for the first time. 5) Fairfax, VA. Patriot Center: I was actually here for Demi Lovato’s concert but since it was her birthday, the Jonas Brothers actually showed up at the concert.

6) Washington D.C., Somewhere near the Capitol building: Convinced dad to take me to DC for the afternoon on the hunt for Joe Jonas. Never found him =( 7) Washington D.C., Warner Theater: One of the lucky few who got in to see Nick Jonas’ Solo Tour (Nick Jonas and the Administration). Suffered from frostbite from having to wait outside in the cold all day. 8) Bristow, VA. Jiffy Lube Live (Once Nissan Pavilion): Third Jonas Concert, This time, I went alone =( sat in the front and was almost chosen to come on stage with them but lost the contest.

9) Manassas, Va. Kelly’s house: Met another “Jonatic”, Kelly. Had a sleepover with Sarah, Kelly, Lauren and her sister Kaitlyn since we are going to another Jonas concert in the morning. 10) Hershey, PA. Hershey Park: After traveling for four hours, we arrive at the venue and Hershey Park. This is where Jessica rode a roller coaster for the first time at 17 (embarrassing). 11) Hershey, PA: Hershey park Stadium: The night has fallen, we leave the park heading toward the stadium for my fourth Jonas Concert. This also happened the be the night where Sarah and I realized we have been friends for 15 years 12) Back home

13) VA Beach, VA: Travel from Bristow down to the beach to see the Jonas Brothers again. This all happened in one summer. This also makes concert number 5. (Six if you include Nick Jonas). This is where we also saw the first college I had my sights set on, Christopher Newport. During this trip we had also seen more colleges. 14) Manassas, VA. SJHS: Senior Year begins 15) Fairfax, VA. Jammin’ Java: Nick Jonas makes a surprise appearance at the Jammin’ Java for a free concert. Sat outside all night long, almost got hypothermia. Was sick for weeks after it was over.

16) Bristow, VA. My House.: Takes one good look around my room and had ultimately decided that the Jonas hysteria and fandom life for me was done. Taken down ever single poster, magazine article, and had thrown it away. 17) Fairfax, VA. Driving home from GMU one afternoon on 66: 1 year later. Discovers One Direction and enters new hysteria (not as crazy as the one like the Jonas hysteria, I swear.)

Idea #2 Idea #2: This one would be about my mom’s side of the family moving to America for a bette life.

1) Trinidad, Sport of Spain. Picaro International Airport: Grandmother leaves on her first flight to go to American to see if it is a right to decision to move for her kids and family. 2) Dulles or Reagan Airport: Grandmother arrives. Determines that their new home will be in Falls Church. 3) Dulles or Reagan Airport: Grandmother returns back to Trinidad to get the kids (Wesley, Roxane (Rocky) and Cindy) and Husband, Wilton to move to the states.

4) Picaro International Airport: The family leaves Trinidad 5) Dulles or Reagan Airport: Arrives in the US, to begin their new life
