Good Morning, everyone!
So a few weeks ago, my best friend and I went to the Thursday night premiere of "The Fault in Our Stars," the movie based on the best-selling novel by author John Green. You could say we were just a
wee bit excited.

Assuming there would be a long line, we arrived around 5:30 (a mere three hours before the movie was set to begin.) Much to our surprise, we were only the second group of people in line, and it was about an hour before anyone else showed up! Despite our early arrival, we managed to stay entertained by playing cards, talking, and mentally preparing ourselves for the movie (which included comparing the amount of tissue packages we'd each brought with us.)

The doors opened, and we were able to go into the theater. Each of us at this showing received The "Night Before Our Stars" started, prompted by a short video introduction by John Green himself, and as the movie began we were all immediately immersed in the world of Hazel Grace Lancaster and Augustus Waters.
The movie was fantastic, and sharing the experience with other Nerdfighters and TFIOS fans made it all the more special. We made a few new friends, and the post-movie live stream was a wonderful experience. It included musical performances, as well as a Q&A with the cast and the ever-so-wonderful lost cameo by John Green himself.
The whole experience was great, and spending it with my best friend made it so much better. I can't wait until
Paper Towns is out and ready to watch, because we'll be the first ones in line!
