Last day of 2012

Hmmmm... Time sure flies, huh? -I bet I've said this sometime somewhere before.
Where was I a year ago? What was I doing?
What was I wishing for? And did I achieve what I wished for exactly one year ago?

Well, I didn't do anything great and mindblowing this year, but it was still as eventful and it has been a busy year for me. Let us rewind and revisit my 2012 life again. ;)

  1. January- My first step into JC
A year ago, I was still enjoying my holidays, albeit excited for the new JC life ahead.
New friends, new environment yada yada. Oh yeah, and the new uniform as well.
The transition was okay, since the people you see around the school are still the same few.
17. What a stranger that number is to me.

2. March- Adapting to failures
You know how you always tell yourself, "I'm gonna work hard this year" and then end up playing and screwing up your results?
That was practically my story.
Things were not as easy as I thought it would be, and my studying style in secondary school is not suitable for JC. It just doesn't work this way.
I was suffocating. The amount of tutorials you have to do each day, the number of post-lecture tests, lecture tests, class test...
9 out of 10 papers I receive back is a number less than 5 (out of 10).
A total failure. And I was getting used to it already.
No longer was I aiming for As.
I just prayed hard to pass.

3. April, May- Fangirl is born

EXO debuted. 8th April. I was introduced to a group of twelve boys whom I never knew were going to change my life dramatically. It was, and hah, still is, my first time officially fangirling over a boygroup. I created a tumblr account for them, then weibo, then renren, pretty much everything you can think of. Just to get closer to them. Beijing or Seoul.
Gotten more reasons to smile and tear.

4. June-August- CCA
At the beginning of the year, I was struggling with my CCA choices. Ended up with three and among the three, YLEP was the most fulfilling.
I like it when my schedule being packed. It gives me the feeling that I didn't waste my time, and my year was spent well. This could be said for my year as a whole. MPS and peer tutoring sessions on Mondays, and the Communibake mega project, all helped me gained experience in things I never knew and never learned before. Oh and the National Day Dinner as well.

5. Sept-Oct- Promos
I was so pessimistic then. Totally prepared to retain and I told myself and the people around me, I would then choose to move on to poly. It didn't happen in the end. I managed to scrape through without needing to take a single retest. But I somehow hope it happened though.
I chanced upon a page in the magazine a few days ago, and saw this.

This is like, my DREAM COURSE. With this, I can throw away whatever I'm studying now, PCME. Guess fate has its own plans.

6. Nov- When dreams began to be clearer
Maybe as an Aquarius, I tend to dream and fantasize a lot. But as an Aquarius with bloodtype O and born on 7 Feb, I am the one who is creative, idealistic, but yet pragmatic at the same time. (Or so the books and internet say.)
I think I know where to go now. (see my older post about "What do you want to be")
Yeah, this holiday I've been spending quite some time (no, just an hour and a half actually) reading my horoscope. They are kinda true.

Despite your amiability you are also quite a private individual who occasionally prefers solitude and chooses his or her friends carefully. You have firm opinions, especially concerning equality and your persuasive language and communication skills help you express them tastefully. Water bearer's with a February the seventh birthday are intellectually innovative, your constant stream of ideas and impulses can be both captivating and annoying.

Being born on the 7th of February ordinarily means that you feel an overwhelming need to make your imaginative ideas happen and your theories be heard. This desire to express your individuality is usually interwoven into many of your dreams for the future and it helps you form the basis of any personal goals. You are fairly ambitious and will pursue strongly anything that you have great belief in so it is one of your aims to do something very meaningful with your life.

True, huh? I wanted to quote more but that will only make this post even longer. But you get the gist.

7. SMTOWN.

This was it. Maybe the highlight in my entire life..
This concert solidified my love for KPOP, and SMTOWN.
Experienced what it is to be a real fangirl.
Standing outside the hotel for 5 hours, watching rehearsals at night by the bay, waking up early in the morning to queue for merchandise, screaming the names of my biases in the rain, waving my lightstick, smiling in the midst of 24thousand fans.

My life is complete. Well, not.
I have a new goal now. :)

8. Dec- Full time KPOPPER
Spent most of the time checking twitter updates, and blogging about them. Was so into the fangirling mood that I even went for G.NA's fanmeet.
Created a twitter fandom account, just to entertain myself and to stop annoying the nonkpoppers on my first acc's tlist.
I was pretty much in the embracement of KPOP. Everyday.


As you can see, 2012 was full of KPOP in my life. It made my life colourful.
Brought me hope and laughter, and tears.

As for this blog, it sure has shifted its focus to more KPOP related stuff. And if you guys have noticed, I added a SCM player to the blog! It's at the bottom of the page, and what I like about it is its simple design, and it only takes up a small part of the blog, and the best part about it is that, even if you move away from this page to view my previous posts, it won't restart itself. :D

Isn't my choice of music great? (Okay, don't want to be judged, pretend I didn't ask that.)
I've changed my blogskin also, after a very long time. And changed my header twice! 

And this, was what I've written on the last day of 2011, titled, well, "the last day of 2011".

Guess what? I think my command of the English language has deteriorated. D:

Was rummaging through my blog drafts and found this short quote (by me ;P) that I was intending to post but didn't.

If you work hard enough,
it is possible for time to stop for you.
-zachela


Well actually, I posted two blogposts on the last day of 2011. The other one is this.

 So I am going to end off this post on 2012, with this.

Be ladies, but we stay girls.

Happy last day of 2012. :)

Sunny Hill- Goodbye to Romance

I haven't got a crush on my seniors, but as I was watching this, I held the perspective of a fangirl.

I guess this is how I will feel if I were to get married and say goodbye to my crazy fangirling acts.

And the lyrics will be:

"I was looking through my idol's photobook, I see the picture of that artiste who was once the leader of hallyu wave. It's been a while.
When lunch time came, I sat by my computer. As I watched you, who seemed so far away from me like a star. It was really nice. I was a fan so idols seemed so high up there. It was so hard to say a word to him. Though we were countries apart.

In my old textbooks, the name of my idol is filled inside. I had no chance to tell him how I felt.
But my heart rushed by just seeing his name.
Is he married now? Does he even know me?
Is he still living his dreams like before?
Did he get taller than before?
I want him to remain as a good memory."


Though I don't want this to happen, it will, one day.

However, getting married doesn't mean I will stop being a fan.

They will forever hold a special place in my heart. :')

毕竟 我爱了他们 一个青春
EXO 啊 你们知不知道…… ㅠㅠ

KPOP reply 2012

Here's a mashup to refresh your memory of the KPOP songs released in 2012!
KPOP mega mashup 2012!



Did the various times of the year come flashing back to you? ;D

2012 has been an exciting year, with a lot of debuts. Notice how this mashup alone has many songs released by rookie groups?

Though many criticise that this year was saturated by debuts, 2012 saw many good debuts. The new wave of idol groups have substance and talents. Well-sung lives, synchronized dancing, things that we used to be raving about are all present in the new groups.

Short sighted view might be that this is a turnoff because it is just too much, but if you consider this in a long run, KPOP is actually improving itself in terms of quality and not just quantity. KPOP is being pushed to a higher height with this new batch of idols and increased competition. 

Remember, we want to keep KPOP going. 

Just hope that the idols don't get too stressed up though.

Anyway, Merry Christmas and 2013 will be a better year! With GG's I Got a Boy comeback and all.

New Twitter Account! Fandom Account

Just created a new Twitter account for KPOP purposes.
If you are into KPOP, you should have heard of this, or even own one already. Fandom account.
It is an account specially for kpop and fangirling only.

I've been using my "personal" account, aka the account that my friends and classmates follow, all along. But after following so many fanbases and fans, plus this is the comeback season for Soshi, I can't help retweeting and tweeting about kpop!
And everytime I wanna RT something I feel burdened. I had to pause and think twice because I don't want to a. irritate my nonkpoppers friends b. get judged by them (lol but you know sometimes kpop tweets are just...)

So I have been considering this for quite a while, which is to create a fandom account. Purely for kpop fangirl purposes. And I just did.

It is tiring, managing two Twitter accounts, and I'm still trying to learn to adapt. Give me time, and all will be good.

It's touching to see how my kpoppers friends saw my "personal" acc tweet and follow back the new account! awwww

And presenting, my new Twitter account!
https://twitter.com/exonyeoshidae

Fellow kpoppers, feel free to follow me! lol :D

-----
Thankful for Tweetdeck, though I spent quite a while figuring it out.

I'm so thoughtful I even censored out my friends.

To make my first account more "clean" for my nonkpoppers on my tlist, I FREAKING UNFOLLOWED 98% OF MY KPOP RELATED ACCOUNTS!
DO YOU KNOW HOW PAINFUL IS THAT?
And my before and after following dropped from 131-63. That's how many kpop accounts I follow (including fanbases and celebrity's account)
I was like damn sad when clicking the unfollow button. For 60+ times. Each time saying goodbye to all my memories...
BUT NVM NOW I HAVE AN ACCOUNT ALL FOR KPOP!
I can tweet and RT whatever whenever I want!
Too bad for the nonkpoppers on my tlist. (oops heheh) My first acc is gonna get boring but heck man.

PS sidetrack a little, my command of the english language mysteriously deteriorated a lot during the holidays :O (every sentence i type feels grammatically wrong including this one)

dream job

I can just sit in front of my lappy and monitor Twitter, Facebook, forums,Youtube and blog and/or translate the updates the whole day~ my dream job.

feel apologetic to my tlist though.
keep spamming them with kpop stuff, esp the non kpoppers.
considering getting a fandom acc but that will be too troublesome.
OTL

121223 Kai's message to fans

Rough trans of Kai's message:

Everyone! Hi! I'm EXO-K's Kai. Today is a very meaningful day for me. A year ago, my first teaser came out and everyone met EXO and Kai for the first time on that day.
It was nervewrecking and happy at the same time.

From the start until now, you guys have been giving us unchanging love and support, and I thank you for that.

Now, Christmas is coming~
Wish you guys a happy and merry Christmas~

I've received a lot of love in 2012,
and I will present performances that are more charming to you guys!

Please anticipate~
Love you~~ Heart heart~~

Christmas Wishlist

XMAS is round the corner and I was just thinking about my wishlist. :D
Note that it is a wishlist, not a "needlist" lol

A while ago Soshified posted a The Best of the Best, Holiday Shopping Guide Edition: Top 5 Gifts for SONEs.
And yeah, the list is quite relatable.So I am going to go through my list, (with some reference to the above link as well) and maybe you'll have some ideas for your own! ;D

1. Hard drive (preferably PINK)
My C and D drives are turning red as I add more pics and videos and songs to my collection each day, I need a hard drive specially for all my KPOP goodies. Imagine having a 400 or 800GB disk for all the KPOP awesomeness.
Bet this is something relatable to ALL kpoppers, not just sones or exotics (but you gotta say that exotics tumblrs have one of the nicest edits and sones and exotics make real good fmvs T.T).
We have at least a fav. group. And in a group you have your bias(es).
And KPOP idols appear in music programmes, four per week to be exact during promotion period.
Tons of magazine/ CFs photoshoots.
A regular com harddrive is never enough.

And tadah! This is 3rd on Soshified's list.

Once Girls’ Generation has performed and the show is over, it is almost time for bed. Before going to sleep though, most SONEs will do something they consider more important than getting an extra fifteen minutes of much-needed rest: they will download the performance they just watched to watch it again. However, with their computers’ hard drives already about to burst with videos and pictures, fans often must resort to external hard drives, which themselves fill up faster than you can say “Gee”. With Girls’ Generation constantly appearing on television and having photos taken, any SONE will appreciate a little more space to store an ever-growing collection of anything digital having to do with their favorite girl group.

My dad said he could get me one for 70bucks but it is still kinda ex so meanwhile I'll make do with my limited com space.

2. g-factory baby g watches
I like watches but I rarely wear them out so this one is really on the wishlist "it-ll-be-good-if-i-have-em-but-okay-if-i-dont-i-ll-just-be-sad" kinda thing.
And yes, soshi-influenced again.
I like the white ones! The ones Taeyeon and Yoona endorsed!

3. MCM bags.
Again, Exo-influenced. :D No need further elaboration why I want those bags. Priced around 70-80SGD.

4. A trip to Korea
Well, maybe not just A trip.
I'll probably head down for a tour after my As and go there as a tourist, you know, the usual shopping and kpop hunts. Maybe after working part time for a few months and earning enough money before I go? Instead of rushing there immediately after the papers.
Guessing that it'll be at most a 10days stay.
So that's the first trip. (And yes I've not been to Korea T.T)

The next one will be sometime in the future.
During university or maybe after that, a three-month or even 1-2 years stay?
To fully experience the life over there in Seoul.
This part is still vague yet.

5. My own room
Yeah, my current house is still quite new. My family got it in late 2009.
But according to my dad, he wants to move to a "better" place, after the 5 year required minimum is over.
My second house actually.
I've been living in my old house for 14 years. Initially, the idea of moving house wasn't that welcoming to me. I've never moved house before and I really missed my old home a lot a lot.
Yet after staying here for about 3 years, I feel like I am okay with moving houses. Quite fun actually.
People say when you get older, a lot of your ideas, tastes and preferences change. True.

So when we get a new house (I need to try to stop starting every sentence with "So", can someone suggest a better word?) I'm gonna try fight for my own room. Up till now I've been sharing my room with my grandma, and my study room with the rest of the family. Not that I don't want to share the room with my grandma, I just want to have a room whereby everything belongs to me.
Right now it is really messy because my stuff are all over the place.
I want to have everything- com, study things, magazines, fan collection, wardrobe, dolling up collection etc, everything in a room. Of my own.

6. Girls' Generation I Got a Boy album
Of course! How can I miss this one?
Probably getting the Taeyeon cover and the group one.

7. Diamond Tears Edge On-Ear Headphones

But it's freaking ex so.. I can only wish. heol

That's all! Obviously there are a lot more, I just can't remember all of them!
MEERY CHRISTMAS! (The world didn't end after all.)

21st Dec 2012- End of the World?

This came in a little bit later than promised (?) I was kinda busy and lazy at the same time. One day left. Gotta make it quick.

Firstly, if someone were to ask me if I think that tomorrow will be the end of the world.
My answer is no.

This is something that I've been thinking about since a few years back, when the theory about 2012 being the end of the world first came out. And my stand hasn't changed.
To me, it would be a whole new world sorta thing, whereby people will be spiritually ... awaken? Oh another stand is it will be the year of change. This has been proven so far with all the eventful happenings. Elections, US economy, NKorea rocket launch etc. 

Until now, I still don't know how this idea came to me. I just had the feeling. 

 And lol random, Ryan Higa's video pointed out something interesting- we were freaking out a year ago, but now that it is less than a day away, we aren't really caring much about it. Everyone's still going to work, school, shop as usual. Are we really that careless?

But if it were to happen, I think I will have quite a lot of regrets because I have a lot of things that I want to do etc.

However, the world WILL end one day. But there are things that you guys can do to make a difference.
 Start doing good.
Start to make this world a better place.
However, it is not good to have this selfish mindset that I'm doing this just because I think the world is ending.

But because this is something that we should be doing right from the start!

Start, spreading love.

Start by giving the people around you a smile on the face. Make their lifes happy and yours, too.

Anyway, I was just thinking about it. Things that I would want to say before the world ends.
Besides those, mommy daddy I love you kind of things, things that are expected etc. Of course I do think that way as well. But yeah, there are some extra things that I NEED to get off my chest.

A message to Girls' Generation and EXO, and KPOP (before the world ends)

KPOP, is probably the best thing that happened in my life. Being a sone, exotic and all. 
It taught me how to love, it gave me more reasons to laugh, cry, and live on.
It gave me a lot, a lot. And I am really thankful for that.
And Girls' Generation. People often wondered why, I, a girl, like a girl group. And of all, SNSD. 
They are nice. What a cliche term but true. They are really nice people, people whom I admire, and they inspired me a lot. Their soshi bond touched my heart. They made me realise how beautiful friendships can be. And how to work hard for your dreams. In soshi, I found happiness. It is a beautiful story. 

And EXO. A new group. The first time I stan a boygroup. The reason is simple. They gave me similar vibes like the ones SNSD gave me. They are like.. so precious. They got me a lot deeper into KPOP, made my life even more exciting, and fulfilling. 

Thank you Girls' Generation, for leading the Hallyu wave, for holding on to your dreams. SONEs are always here. Be ladies, but we stay girls. Thank you EXO, for existing in my life. Keep believing. You will achieve a lot more. We are waiting for your comeback!!
Thank you KPOP.

And of course, being born here in Singapore. Couldnt be any luckier.
--
random link. KPOP is actually aiding everyone in making the world a better place.
Look at how it made people learn to love people of different races and cultural backgrounds.
How it unites people. It is about love.

Everyone, hwaiting!

We can help the world in every little way.

shopping at tampines

Tampines is the best place to shop!! People living there are so so lucky.
They have three freaking malls with everything. (Kay I think I said this somewhere in my previous post already.)
Two KOREAN MARTS. BONUS!!
Loads of Pororo stuff. Was tempted to buy them. lol

 
So yupps, here's what I got today!

Bought Teenage and Teens magazines from 7-11 first. And a pleasant surprise! My SMTOWN SG reflections was published!

Got it for Running Man cover and SMTOWN concert coverage and didn't expect that coming.

Went Daiso to get my file (it's pink!) for next year and found a nice cash book which I will write in about today's purchase later on.

Then I got this pair of shoes for 20bucks. Comfortable and nice!

And HOLY I got my Running Man R badge, Kwangsoo Baeshinja badge, and Gary face badge. lol how they label it as "gary face" is plain funny. And my husbands' nametags. :D Couldn't find Byun Baekhyun's. :( It's tough sharing your guy with a lot of fangirls. Kay I'm crazy. Someone stop me.

Jackets from Kate Love for 30bucks.

And last but not least, VITA500! THE ENERGY DRINKS SNSD ENDORSES! Finally managed to find these in the second Korean mart we went. With Sunny and Yuri's faces. :D Gonna keep these bottles after I finish them.

End. Nice day!

MSIA TRIP

I'm back!!
Went Malaysia with family yesterday!
Here's what I bought from the trip!

Was looking for Pororo toys and keychains. Saw two shops selling but the sewing was horrible so I didn't buy 'em. The Popular bookstore there was selling Pororo DVD though. But what I want is a Pororo Korean storybook so...

Got some stuff from Chamelon. Two rings (pink! PANDA TAO and owl) two rubber bands and three clips. Clips are for clipping my fringe at home, not for going out lol.

Kinda surprised that Naver Line actually sells their emoticon plushies lol.
They were selling it in Action City, for about 4SGD so I got three~

There wasn't much of a jam on the way there. We left house at 12pm and reached in about 1h plus. The way home was seriously jammed up. We left the place at 6 and only reached Singapore at 830pm. Jams were due to the rain and car accidents. Everyone, please please please drive safely okay! It's not good to be in a car accident.

It is 18th already. Will prolly post about 21st December 2012 in the next post, which I have a lot of things to talk about but too lazy to. Shall see..
