This post's gonna contain kpop stuff, sorry if you aren't a kpop fan - maybe you can choose to ignore this? :)
Time flies, 2011's ending soon. January seems like yesterday but we're already sinking deep in November. Pretty soon we'll be celebrating Christmas and New Year and before you know it, you are another year older. How scary (I'll be 18 lol wts man) and because this is my blog, I can do almost anything that I like here, I'm gonna post a few kpop vids that I like from this year since it has been quite some time since I last posted anything related to kpop *fangirl mode on* I'm definitely NOT a hardcore fan, I like kpop just fine. :)
Oh god just look at Soohyun! YES SOOHYUN THAT GUY WHO HAS THAT AMAZING VOICE OMG THAT CHARMING HELL OF A GUY. How I've come to like him is quite weird, since I used to actually don't like him. I recall watching U-Kiss Vampire last year and finding Soohyun weird and irritating (can't remember why though hahaha) but as time passes, I got to like him more and more, mainly because of his voice. I like guys who can really sing. Couldn't help but notice how freaking awesome his voice is!!!!! After putting aside my biased view about him, I've came to realize that he's actually quite nice and good-looking (that's a plus to his godly voice) and slowly I found myself looking only at him throughout U-Kiss's music videos, haha :D But of course, it's not only him that I like U-Kiss, I do like them as a whole though, just that I like Soohyun best so naturally I want talk more about him. I like Kevin too! (LOL basically I like guys good-looking guys who can sing - I SOUND SO SHALLOW x_x) Anyway, love their other songs like Someday and Baby Don't Cry that really showoff their great voices :)
Didn't fangirl about kpop stuff much this year because I hate myself from drifting away from Super Junior last time when I thought that I won't. I'm still quite a fan of many groups but I don't like showing my enthusiasm, haha. I support more of what they're singing, rather than their looks and what they do I guess.
Personally, I feel that they're the best out of all the rookie groups for this year (erm it's not like I bother to go listen to other new groups' songs /coughs) Know about them from watching simonaandmartina's Kpop Monday videos on Youtube, haha, when they first reviewed on Infinite's Nothing's Over. Because I don't really bother to listen to what the new groups have these days, I kinda depend on Simon and Martina's reviews to get to know what good songs there are nowadays. Since they gave good reviews on Infinite's Nothing's Over, I went to look for the music video and so yep I really like it - the music video was really special (what kpop mv will use toilet paper in it you tell me LOL) and it was a nice song overall. Even though their first music video was good, I prefer Be Mine over it. Be Mine has more of this mysterious feeling and those feelings were captured really well and I really love all the effects :) The song's really catchy too, didn't really like it when I first heard it though but as I keep hearing it blasting when I go to some places I find myself humming to the tune of this song, it's AWESOME *O* Finding Sunggyu, Woohyun and L kinda cute but I can't really comment much about them because I don't know the band quite well.. ._.
Seriously, I don't really have much to say for this music video. It's perfect and it touched my heart. G.O has an amazing voice, even though I don't understand the words that he's singing, I can quite get what the song is about and the feelings are expressed really well here. I also like how this mv is different from your typical kpop mv. Fell in love with this the very first time I saw it. But somehow, it kinda reminds me of stuff that I'm still trying so hard to forget. OH WELL OH WELL.
Another that I didn't really like at first but after forcing myself to listen to it for a few times, it's actually kind of catchy. Didn't really get the music video at first (yep this song and mv totally got me all confused hahaha) but after watching the review by Simon and Martina, I realized that there's actually hidden meaning behind this cool mv, portraying how the society's perception of beauty has ruined us, how there is very little freedom to speech etc. Anyway, Ga-in (yay I like her :D), as usual, looks hot and dangerous (HOHOHO). You can really feel their "power" in this song, their voices fits together nicely and overall, it's a very cool mv that's worth watching. Like 2NE1, they don't really act like all those other girls groups with all their cutesy songs and do produce songs with deep meaning.
Okay I need to say that I don't really like girl groups that act cute and stuff and Girl's Day is more than just being cute and doing all those aegyo. They have great voices and I love their songs. I like how listening to their songs can make me happier because they sound so cheerful and I enjoy blasting all those happy songs ^^ Anyway, isn't this music video reallyyyyy cute? It just feels that their cuteness is not that fake and the concept for this video is so creative and funny at the same time, haha. I like Minah (who doesn't? okay maybe you don't but that's none of my business~) - she's the main girl in this video - I like how she looks so hyper and really into her act here. Not only is she cute, she's good at singing too, love the part where she reaches the highest note :D
I LOVE THE STORY! Even though it's just an animation and not exactly 2NE1 themselves doing all those stunts (if they really do it it's gonna take a looooong time to get it done LOL), this is just fantastic! I don't know how the song goes along with the music video but I still love the story haha it's so cute and coolshit and at the same time. I looooove anime with great fighting scenes and so, with all those badass moves that they have here, how can I not like this video? But aww the poor guy (who's actually kinda cute) ended up dead! Boohoo! I guess I don't have to comment on how 2NE1 sound, do I? It's obvious that as usual, Bom has this voice that awes us all and the other members sounds great too ^^
PSSHHH. ALMOST FORGOT ABOUT THIS OMG. It was too long ago and I just realized that this music video's released this year too so I just HAVE TO include this in my post. Really love this music video. I mean, erm, super cute guys all drenched in the rain? Checked? Epic dancing? Checked. Fantabulous voice? Checked. Dancing in water? Checked. Sexy expressions? Checked. Angst? Checked. Yes you read that right. I don't know why, but those expressions that they are giving me somehow makes me think that they feel.. angsty. Not saying this is bad, but it makes this an even cooler music video overall, of course I like ;)

Watch this video (in HD)!!! It's In Your Arms sang by Kina Grannis - pretty cool music video that involved jelly bean art, this video's made using 288,000 jelly beans! Awesome huh :) Also, watch the making of this music video here. I find both the actual music video and the making of the music video nice, enjoy.

(I know it's him cuz of his tattoo, can you spot it?)
I'm posting a photo of him not because I like him (I know NOTHING about him) but because I like how he looks - there's a huge difference between really liking a person and liking how he looks. He's my favourite Korean ulzzang (what favourite, he's the only one that I know lololol) and his face has been my msn dp since the beginning of this year. I love how he looks like an anime character (HE SHOULD BE A COSPLAYER JUST LOOK AT HIM!!!!!). I feel so shallow liking a person's look only though. But oh well he's the only one on my list, heh.

Today went just fine, not any happier or any sadder but just fine. Had OP dry runs and it went better than I expected. At least I wasn't shaking so much like I always do, managed to hold my script quite firmly (still not that good but definitely better than usual). I was trying my best not to be super nervous, being over-nervous will definitely ruin my whole presentation! x( I need to stand properly though and stop crossing my legs while presenting just because I'm nervous. I NEED TO BE MORE CONFIDENT ARGH WHERE DID MY CONFIDENCE GO?! Oh I forgot, I never have any confidence in the first place, tsk.
Having stage fright seriously sucks. I used to be rather confident standing in front of a crowd when I was young but now I'm like a complete coward. Thinking back, it's likely that my stage fright got worse and worse each year because of the failures that I've experienced on stage.
The first time I acted in a stage drama was when I was like primary 5 (or 6?) and together with some of my other classmates we represented the school for something like a competition. The preparation went well but I suddenly got nervous on the actual day and stuttered my lines on stage during the performance in front of a huge crowd. We didn't win anything at all in the end - even the teacher-in-charge looked really disappointed and just somehow I managed to conclude that the reason we didn't win anything was because of me. I felt so guilty and bad towards my classmates and teachers who had put in all their efforts to prepare for the drama.
The other time was during sec2 when we have sort of like an inter-class competition (or was it within the lower sec I can't remember) and we have to do Chinese stage drama. The preparation - ALMOST EVERYTHING - went really well, I was doing quite good during rehearsals too (not that I'm praising myself lar but I'm kind of a dramatic person LOL) Everyone was going on about how we'll definitely put up a great show blah blah blah but thanks to me - I FREAKING MADE A MISTAKE IN ONE OF MY LINES NEARING THE END. Nobody said anything but I felt super guilty and ajsdhsjhadfjkshfkhs because I really had fun during rehearsals and thought that we would have a chance of winning or something but I just have to sort of ruin it AGAIN. Why is it always me that makes a mistake? :( Went out with Huien that day (yep mentioned that in one of my previous blog posts) and we were talking about it and it seems like she didn't remember me making a mistake until I specifically brought up the fact that I did said something wrongly in one of my lines. But something like this is going to be forever in one of my unforgettable memories, argh. Can't help but feel bad about how I'm always ruining the performance. SIGH.
And so. I have stage fright. I guess I can only be dramatic in front of friends but not in front of everyone hahaha.

Went to the Harajuku Street Style Launch Event @ Tangs yesterday evening with Mandy!
Got a $20 cash voucher and spent it on a super random necklace (oh god what was I thinking?!), watch the runway walk too and took lots of (blurry) photos haha! There were so many handsome guys and pretty girls among the models :) Saw Xiaxue, QiuQiu, TypicalBen and Chessie too haha even took photos with xiaxue and Ben, I felt like some dumbass fangirl lmao. Bought a pair of red canvas shoes, a bracelet (charm? what do you even call it), a necklace and some earrings too :)

THIS IS A POST SOLELY FOR MY FANGIRL-ING 8D
Finished watching Durarara!!, all 24 episodes and omg it was freaking awesome!!!!!!! Firstly, it's not your typical shounen or shoujo anime. The plot's damn cool and the anime's so mysterious, there's this invisible power from it that keeps drawing me to it and keeps me curious and that made me want to finish the whole thing at one go. All the characters here have a story of their own, everything is just freaking amazing ZOMFGGGGG IDK HOW TO SAY IT BUT IT WAS DAMN NICE AHHHHH.
I still remember my reaction after watching the first few episodes. First episode: Erm, WOAH. Second: Hmmm okaaaaay. Third: Oh god. Fourth: OMG I WANT TO KEEP WATCHING AND WATCHING AND WATCHINGGGGGG. YES, IT WAS THAT INTRIGUING.
I love Shizuo's "殺す 殺す 殺す 殺す 殺す 殺す 殺す 殺す" - the way he says it is simply p e r f e c t. *O*!! And and and I love how strong Shizuo is, how he throw vending machines around from time to time (格好良いいいいいいいいいいいいいい～!!!) Not only Shizuo, I love Celty too! Especially Celty and Shinra pair omg they're totally a pair made in heaven, despite the fact that Celty is actually a Dullahan - a faerie without a head. XD
I think I'm kinda obsessed. ._.
my two favourite characters - Celty and Shizuo!!!!! *O* (Shizuo in his bartender outfit... OMG I CAN'T BREATHE)
Shizuo, Shizuo and Shizuo :D:D:D

HAPPY KEY DAY ♥
Dedicating a post to Shinee's Key Kim Kibum for his birthday. What I love about him - he's so adorable, almighty (good at dancing, singing, rapping... and even damn strong, if you watched makbanshi 8D) and actually I'm kinda like him, meaning that personally, I feel that our personalities are kinda similar. Not gonna elaborate on that though hahaha! 23rd September - not that I'm just biased, BUT SERIOUSLY. DON'T YOU GUYS AGREE THAT 23RD SEPTEMBER SOUNDS NICEEEEEEE? :)
I feel sorry for being such a absent shawol this year, it has been a busy year for me and I guess I'm more into animes these days. Hey, but being fickle-minded me, I always switch back and forth. I feel guilty though, I have no idea what Shinee's doing now and their recent events blah blah blah :\
Anyway. SHINEE HWAITING! :D

Cause our lips, can touch.LOL, 사랑's like two of the very few Korean characters that I can actually read - Japanese characters are much more easier! Oh and a very happy birthday to Choi Minho!(as much as I wanted to put the birthday boy's picture here, I won't because I don't wanna remove Key's pic ;__;)
And our cheeks, can brush.

Blah lalala because I'm bored and I have nothing interesting to blog about :D
Went to Jurong Point with mum today to look around for prom dresses, saw one that fits me but since it's being sold at Jurong Point then it'll be quite common? I don't wanna clash with anyone! But mum doesn't think so, argh this is frustrating. Because PROM = STRESS. Don't wanna think about it anymore asdfghjkl/.
Borrowed five books at the library today too (I'm a nerddddd) One of the books I borrowed was written by Hilary Duff! I was totally surprised to see her name on the spine of the book (the book's super new and that's the reason why I'm attracted to it LOLOLOL) - I mean, not that I'm saying she has no talent or whatsoever, but I didn't know she writes! Hees hope the content of the book is as interesting as the cover of it:D
Okay since I had nothing else to blog about, let me just end with a Key gif! Just see how his eyes twinkle and how his amazing smile lights up his face, zomg. I'm feeling silly and definitely going crazy 8D
