A girl guide to festivals or concerts

the fact that i've been to concerts before, might help to convince u that my ultimate girl guide is a good one! Although most of them concerts i've been to were in Malaysia, but the recent T in the Park was the hardcore one out of them all. It was so hardcore that a girl literally needs to prepare herself for the madness and messiness they're about to witness. But i say u can stay calm, and enjoy the show if u are well-prepared.

Most music festivals in the world, will be expecting rain to fall down at some point throughout the concert. This is when it gets really messy. This is when you should be well prepared in any way that u could. Well girls, if ur main concerned is hygienic, u might wanna pay 'extra' to get into an exclusive toilet, where water flushing toilet  is available, the toilet seat is still white and there's basin to wash ur hands. Also its good to be able to reserve a very nice and decent accomodation. After a long day outside, dirty and tired, these rooms will makes u feel better for a good night sleep, hence all ready for the next day.

So girls, u might wanna make sure u copy these down for ur next music festival experience

1. Wellies

- Make sure ur wellies is comfortable enough to get u through the day. It will be a very long day, so u need ur wellies to be as comfy as possible. And dont bother buying £200 Jimmy Choo's Hunter for this, cause at the end of the day, no one knows urs worth £200 cause it will all turn muddy, and urs might as well looks like any other wellies which costs probably less than a tenner. 

2. Poncho / Raincoat

- Get a raincoat and poncho with u. Its ESSENTIAL. Buy two or three from poundland cause one raincoat will probably last only for one day, but since its cheap get two or three of them, one each day. Also, u might wanna make sure that ur poncho or raincoat, is indeed WATER RESISTANT. It should made of PVC or plastics. 

3. Plastic bags / Black bags

- This is a good emergency kit. I had them plastic bags with me at all time. I use them to avoid trench foot. I use them to keep me dry. I use them to put my wet clothes in after changing. U can also use them as a mat especially the black bin liner.

4. Toilet paper / Wet tissues

- You will need this. Toilet paper tend to finish every 5 minutes. Not because these people actually use them, but because they throw them around. Some idiots are just disgusting and stupid, that they think we wanna be like them. U can see a new toilet paper on the floor, all over the place, unused! Wasting away the toilet paper for nothing.

5. Dry clothes

- Although u have poncho or raincoat covering u up from the rain, sometimes it just doesnt help as much, and u still get wet in the end. So its best to bring dry clothes with u, including ur under garments for a fresher feeling. Remember, the festival is a whole day event, u dont wanna get wet, feeling uncomfortable and complaining (like i did! regret not bringing the whole clothes but shirt).

6. Sunblock / sunglasses / hat

- Usually, music festivals will be held over the summer. Regardless the rain like the one we have here in the UK, its pretty hot when its summer. I know we love the sun, but im convinvced we dont want any sunburn, maybe a little bit of sun-tanned. So, although the weatherman reports on rainy and wet festivals, u might wanna bring them sunblock, sunglasses or hat, just in case.  

7. Miscellaneous

- There are other things that would be very useful to bring along like the duck tape, the safety pin, paracetamol, and of course cash. U will want to eat or drink or even buy souveniers at the festivals, so its important to have cash with u. Although there are ATM available, but u dont wanna fuss urself with simple thing like this. Well most festivals wont allow any foods and beverages in, u just gotta be a little bit cheeky, to try to sneak in a few FB so that u dont have to spent so much on those over-priced food at these festivals. Most importantly, dont forget you tickets ladies.

I would also like to gently gushed u girls about some UNNECESSARY stuff to bring along to the festival.

1. High heels

- Ladies, no high heels anywhere in the concert. Not just music festivals, but any concert. People dont dance at music festivals or concerts, they jumped! When they do, ull be wishing u are on a more comfortable shoes. Save it for a night in town ay?

2. Fake eyelashes / fake nails

- A big N.O! no fake eyelashes or fake nails in the concert. Those nails could 'kill' people. Those fake lashes, can u actually see in them? hmm.

3. Expensive bags

- Well we know ure rich, but dont have to parade those bags at those nasty music festivals. I bet if the bag can talk, they will be begging u to leave them at home.  

Well, maybe its not a complete guide, but if u follow them, i'm POSITIVE u'll survive the madness and messiness of the festival. But the most important thing is to have fun! just get out there and have fun, ure not there to remain static so that ur make up wont melt or ur hair stays as it is. Ure out there to enjoy, and let loose. After all, u can always wait for ur weekly visit to the club if u want to remain static the whole night. This is probably once a year or even once in a lifetime experience. So chill out!
