📅 Day 1 - June 22, 2023
📍 Location: Paris Charles de Gaulle Terminal 1
When (waiting) time and patience are rewarded, let's go for the cheering!! 💚💛
After the Airport Arrival, comes the usual 'RER B trip back to Paris in silence as everyone is rewatching the vids and pics on the phone ✔️ 🤭'
+ Fooooooood !!! 🍔
Until it was time to wander around in Paris, trying to spot the Dior cube for the emplacement of next day's show.
Many were saying it would be held at "Palais de Tokyo", which was our 1st stop, thought with all the works around the place, it likely wasn't the place to have a 'Fashion Show'
After asking at the information desk, we learned there will be a fashion show a bit farther on the bridge but it was for Kenzo.
So we went again plotting all kind of theories of where it could be, checking each bridge as well since many shows seems to happen on the bridges.
At the end, we just went checking "École Militaire" side, which ended up not really being the place neither (except if we had been smart and walk to the other side to see the big DIOR building), tho I think we were so tired that we just spend searching for clues at the back of the building.
We then decided to ❌ stop for the day, waiting for more information or to see the next morning starting 7AM how it would go (if we could find the place where DIOR is held).
And thus Day 1 ended with happy hugs to see each other back and waiting for news for Day 2 ❤️🔥
📅 Day 2 - June 23, 2023
📍 Location: École Militaire
Thinking of it, it was 🐯 Catia 's first time with us at the Event as the two previous times she could only join us at the Airport (Arrival & Send Off).
Our fun this time was to support, cheer through screaming " P'Mile~Apo " !!!
The only downside was that when we arrived, we asked a security guard if there was a place we could stand as fan to not disturb the event. We were even nicely guided to the area behind the barriers where we were standing.
Ends up that later coming crowd, who were asked to stand on the opposite side of the street, decided they could cross the street once the first visitors arrives and litteraly stand all along the entrance side, making us look like the back/last aisle side.
🥲 Naaaah it's ok... no matter where we stand, screaming our love and support has no barriers/frontiers, right?
They did heard us right ? (GQ Thailand Twitter)
Since we were on the Aisle side after the start of the show, the chance for having the Artist walk over to our side became quiet (almost like we were non existing) small, but never doubt when it comes to MileApo.
If they can/are allowed, we know they would come even for a second.
And our main fun of being there is to support/sending them our love.
As long as our cheers reach them, we would be happy.
So we just went on Mode "P'Mile~Apo"❣️
From the moment they arrived, to the moment we spotted them doing interviews after the Show (Apo was easy to spot with that fluo-Green/Yellow shirt 🤭) until they arrived to the exit.
As we noticed many Guest leaving just in a straight road, waving at the crowd on the side of the streets, we decided we would be chanting until the last minute, until when they both were in the cars (even if we couldn't see anything from it from where we were).
Yes, all of us were wondering at the end why did we went standing on the barrier... I think it was just because of happiness and the fact they were the only people who turned over to us, walking over to us to greet us, who were standing in what was supposed to be the only corner designed to "fans" and whom ended up being just a side aisle because the street side became out of control and people just went standing there.
Tho we kept on saying: 1 second of MileApo can enlighten a whole day! 💚💛
After the Fashion show, we crossed the street to take pictures with Mile's and Apo's truck that was stationned there the whole time but was to far for us to go as we were stuck in the fan aisle before.
Chilling around the place a bit, watching before trying to find a place to sit and drink a little something fresh ... (we were standing since 7AM )
Seems like the stars kept on bringing us luck because as soon as we were seated, as soon as the MileApo truck that was driving around appeared in front of us.
I think most of us were still to shocked because MileApo did walked over to us, that our reflexes were all gone 🙈.
Once the little break over we decided to head over to Champs-Élysées for the Guerlain shop as some wished to try out Mile's choices.
🎼 Aux Champs-Elysées, aux Champs-Elysées
Au soleil, sous la pluie, à midi ou à minuit
Il y a tout ce que vous voulez aux Champs-Elysées 🎶
( Just some Funclub time together till the end the day ... it was 1 AM when we said bye tho... ~ 🙈 )
📅 Day 3 - June 24, 2023
📍 Location: Paris, Île-de-France
Who says "La louvre" says 'monaliPO'!!!
Today's schedule; on the trace of previous MileApo photo spots 📸
= Me: Let's have lOOOOOts of new monaliPO pics!!!
Since we had met up later than planned (the day before we stayed together till 1AM to look at the Eiffel tower's lights going off to see just an outerline version of the Iron Lady.)
Lunch time was nearby, and that morning we already saw the announcement of "ManSuang" Official Trailer release, so after the first photo round, we decided to walk to Opera area to find a spot to sit down, eat and be able to catch up with ManSuang news.
This is how ended the first part of the day at "Laï-LaÏ Ken" for some nice Ramen while waiting for the release of ManSuang trailer.
After lunch & ManSuang-fangirling = discussion at the lunch table as there was Montmartre/Sacré-Coeur that we really wished to do as we wanted to put a lock with a wish on the summit for ManSuang succes, tho closer by, in a walking distance was Galerie Lafayette (where Apo took a picture of the copula at the woman side) = having monaliPO posing with the copula.
Personally, I even didn't knew there was a men and a woman side for Galerie Lafayette.
The fun of learning new things when you are around ~
Ends up we would walk to Apo's croissant shop towards Galerie Lafayette 🥐
Next would then be Galerie Lafayette with still not knowing if we go to the woman side for the Copula first or the men side (as I've never seen it).
Tho since we were out of lunch not a long time ago, the hunt for dessert or something refeshing/sweet joined the list.
I just remember how we were also looking at each Ice Cream shop on the way (searching for the one we didn't knew the name off, where Apo had bought some Ice Cream at last February = monaliPO also wants Ice Cream).
At a moment, 🐡 showed me my favorite clothes shop, which was closed due to works.
😹 You bet I would have taken monaliPO in there for shopping if it was open, tho destiny had some other plans for us ✨.
As we crossed the street towards the Galerie Lafayette, Nico pointed over to an Ice Cream stand on the street side we just left. Ah nyop, that wasn't Apo's Ice cream shop though I was about to tell the other girls to stop so maybe we can buy Ice Cream, but Nico said it was ok, we might find some other farther on.
It was then when I looked at the facade of Galery Lafayette, wondering how long it have been since I had last visited it (a decade + for sure). And then I heard Nico saying "Mile...".
ー Me 🐼 : About to do an intern joke to Nico when I noticed she was looking quiet shocked? So I turned over to where she was looking and well ... I recognized a silhouette that looked like Mile.
Tho before I even was aware off, I went "P'Mile!?"
... Guess who turned around? (the only thing I thought to do at that moment was 👋 at him...) and then I saw someone in front of Mile turn around as well ... which had me go "Oooh and Apo!?"
🙈 ... don't ask, the whole fUnclub went in mode "Sharing one braincell".
We met Pond and P'Mos further as well and had the chance to exchange some words (and fun!) with them ♡. Thank you so much for your time! 💖
At the end, we couldn't do all the photo spots, so we decided to have it over for the next time.
It might be the last night for the fUnclub this time (as the next day many were taking their own way home after the Airport Send off), but there are still the upcoming gatherings 💖
So we ended the chill night at the Eiffel Tower with other #greenycolleagues 🌙
📅 Day 4 - June 25, 2023
📍 Location: Basilique du Sacré-Cœur de Montmartre
ー "It's ok, they said"
ー "Just some stairs up, they said"
ー Me 🐼 : 😨😰😱 (Wait when you're my age ... 🥸).
The fun to make a wish while going on the stairs and get to the summit to put a lock with the wishes engraved on it ✔️
Here we go 💚💛💖 We are ready for ManSuang❣️❣️❣️
And so why ...
we ended up missing MileApo's sendoff from Paris as we were at the wrong Terminal 😅🙈
The most impressive thing is that we went from "Strangers to friends", knowing each other only since January for Mile in Paris and becoming a MileApo fUnclub who've been able to share such a nice experience.
Thank you, girls 💖
