Post Content to $scope doesn't work when trying to change $location.path

Hi guys, I'm having a hard time bringing my response data to the $scope once I change the $location of my angular app.

The current state is, im recieving the user data on login from my express middleware and now I want to relocate to the profile page and update a $scope var to fill my ng-repeat directive. The response data is logged as desired but on location change it seems like the scope is reset.

My Code looks like this:

Controller Login Function:

$scope.login = function($event){
        $event.stopPropagation();
        eventDataService.getEvents($scope.email,$scope.password,function(response){
            console.log(response.data)
            $scope.events = response.data.events
        })
          $location.path('/profile');
  }

eventDataService:

app.service('eventDataService', function($http){
    this.getEvents = function(email,password,callback){
        $http({
          method: 'POST',
          url: '/login',
          data: {
              email: email,
              password: password
          }
      })
      .then(callback)
    }
})

I don't know how to solve this issue.
