Travel to London to see Will Smith

Will Smith  at Hancock premiere in London- hostels247.com blog

The day I took time off from my boring job to go and see Will Smith


It was an amazing day, as I got into Leicester Square, one of my favourite hang outs, everywhere was buzzing with excitement, there were people everywhere, I was so glad I had spent the night before in a nearby Youth Hostel in London, because otherwise by the time I travelled from my house in the out skirts of London, I wouldn’t have got such a good view of Will Smith, right at the front of the crowd, right by the barriers.

Will Smith was in Leicester Square London, for the premier of Hancock , his new movie. In the movie, Will Smith plays an alcoholic superhero that does not care about other people's opinions - until he saves the life of Bateman's character, a PR executive called Ray Embrey.

Being his usual self on that day “Fresh Prince” the atmosphere was more like a music concert, as Will Smith sang some of his favourite numbers. He was joined by his co-stars Charlize Theron and Jason Bateman to launch the film

As I was in Leicester Square I was mesmerised and full of joy. All those boring days at work trying to sell things to people that don’t even want it, just melted away. I was full of new spirit and energy.

Seeing Will Smith so close and being near that amount of people who travel from all over the place, a lot of them probably stayed in a youth hostel like me or camped out overnight, everyone being so excited got me a new lease in life. I felt like a star myself, and it seemed as if the weather, which was sunny and clear blue skies, was also encouraging me to enjoy this time with one of my favourite actors and singers Will Smith.

I have always liked Will Smith since the days of “Fresh Prince” and I have grown to appreciate and love his talent more and more, as he has taken on more demanding roles in movies and shown he is a truly talented actor as well as a dynamic singer.

He is so creative and business minded, he is exactly the kind of role model every young man should look up to in life, or model them selves on.

You are probably wondering why I’m going on and on about Will Smith, the truth is, I want to be like him one day, not because he’s an actor or musician, but because he’s been an accomplished young man from an early age, a good role model, and has stayed out of trouble, even with such an immense success.

I love to write, sing and I’m pretty good at dealing with people.

I believe that working hard is a good recipe for success and Will Smith has definitely handled his success with Humility and Respect for people.

I’m going back to my boring job, but I intend to make changes in my life, to pursue things I love and become an asset to Man Kind.
