Forever 21

Also on the shopping trip today, I went to Forever 21. There were 3 things that I saw on the website that I wanted to buy. At the store I didn't find any of them, I have been walking out of Forever 21 empty-handed and pretty disappointed lately.

I need a compact mirror, and I really liked the rose, so I waited...and waited for it to be in stock, but I never saw it in stock at the store. I went to two different stores for it and still nothing.
I wanted this tank because...this might sound crazy...Sohee and Ye Eun of the Wonder Girls are on it! Ye Eun is the one standing the most to the left, and Sohee is the one standing in the center. For the pictures of the girls in that pose and clothes, go to http://www.allkpop.com/ and look through the archives, it's not that old. So I went twice and still no tank top.
I wanted this shirt simply because it had a heart and it had Snoopy. My friend and I have been wanting a Snoopy shirt since the celebrity endorsements (Super Junior, Big Bang, maybe SHINee) for the Korean brand Nii (www.nii.co.kr). Same thing, I went to the same store twice and no shirt.

I might try the stores again for the 3 things above, if I don't find them I might just have to order it online, which I really don't like to do.

Passions

S Radio Club

S Radio Club formerly known as Soompi Radio Club, plays mostly Korean songs, but you can also listen to an occasional Mandarin, Japanese, Cantonese, or even English song. I just found this online radio station because my friend was telling me about it and stories of her requesting songs on it. So I decided to give it a try. I went to http://www.soompiradio.com/, and signed up. I listen to it on my iTunes and now it's up to 110 plays. I have only requested once and that was with DJ Nugu but he got to my request (Balloons-TVXQ/DBSK) right after the song before finished playing. Then I told my friend who then also requested another DBSK/TVXQ song (Wrong Number). He played that as well. You should give it a try!

Boys Over Flowers

Before I started watching this Korean drama, I was wondering what all the hype was about. Now I understand what it was about. Kim Bum! Just Kidding. But it is a worthy drama to be watching, I don't think it matches up with all the hype, but it's not a disappointment like *cough* 2NE1's debut performance on SBS Inkigayo. I am on episode 6 right now!

Dresses

I don't know, but lately I have been looking at dresses more and more often lately. Maybe because I have the Last Dance (a formal dance at my school, that only happens once a school year) and graduation! I have my Last Dance dress and I'm still looking for my graduation dress.

Super Junior-Its' You

I LOVE THIS SONG! They have two versions of MV for it too!

Drama Version

Dance Version

Just Super!

So remember the post where I promised to post almost everything I knew about Super Junior's 3rd album. Well, here it is. I know it's kinda late considering that they are almost ending their Sorry, Sorry promotions.

First off, I never posted the Sorry, Sorry MV! How could I not?!


And my favorite part of Cd promotions...THE VARIETY SHOWS!! Unfortunately I can't post all of the shows I have watched but, I can give you links to a few youtube users who have them all there:http://www.youtube.com/user/sok663 and http://www.youtube.com/user/everlastingsubs. Both have English subs for people like me who can't understand 99.9% of Korean.

And the best part. Super Junior's new MV for It's You. I love it 10 times more than Sorry, Sorry and I LOVE Sorry, Sorry. I hhope it's gonna be a hit. I especially love the choreography.

Passions

From now on will I not only have my passions on the sidebar, I will also have weekly? posts for it too. Or whenever I feel like it.

http://www.abc.com/

Last week I missed Grey's Anatomy, my favorite, favorite show. So my friend told me to watch it on http://www.abc.com/. I just wathed it and it's absolutely amazing. The quality (I watched it in HD) is amazing! The advertisements are shorter too! The only thing I thought was a little annoying was that it lagged everytime I changed it to full screen and back, but that might be from my internet connection. But I thought it was so clear overall.

Dancing with the Stars

Anybody watch this show too? Last time I actually watched the whole season for DwtS was season 1, but I have been watching snippets of almost every season. this season, I think, has people that are extremely good at dancing and then people that aren't. But I still watch it, because it's a dance show.

Super Junior

Haha, I'm such and e.l.f! Well, this is always on my passions list, but today I thought they were extra special. Every since their 3rd album (yayy!), they have been going on more and more variety shows! That's pretty typical for all k-pop stars because they want to promote their new CD but it's Super Junior, the funniest people on variety shows. I have lists of what to watch already, I JUST NEED SOMEONE TO SUB THEM!!! Come show that I want to watch are We Got Married (episode 50, Kangin & Yoonji cuts) and Let's Sleep Here Tonight/Let Me Sleep Here Tonight.

My School Friends

Leaving them is going to be the hardest thing for me this whole year, it evens beats out science fair projects, research reporst, everything. I don't want to leave them so soon, or ever for that matter...I don't want to face June 3rd, the last day I will probably seeall of us together. I'm going to be so sad on the last day of school.

Sorry, Sorry

Sorry, I'm quite annoying when I get really really excited about something. Before it was Gee, now it's Super Junior's 3rd album! They just released their teaser music video, and I thought I should post it, just because. So here it is. It's so different from their past styles, but I guess everybody's style is changing with every album depending on what te trend is. Im guessing the trend is electronic sounding, techno, with lots of repetiveness. Examples of that trend are BoA's I did it For Love, SNSD's Gee, and Super Junior's Sorry, Sorry.

Everything Right Now

How was everyone's Valentine's Day yesterday? I didn't do anything. The closest I got to love was in I'm Sorry I Love You that I was watching almost all day. So I just wanted to fill you guys in with what's happening with me right now. Well not really. Nothing is happening. I have Presidents Day, not week, day off. That's what you get for going to private school, a lot less breaks than public schools.

I think my style of clothing has changed. I actually want it to change. I used to wear a lot of graphic t-shirts that cost like $10 a piece. I've become smarter and have not really looked at stores like Aeropostale, or American Eagle which I used to really liked to shop at. The things there, if not on sale, were pretty expensive. I guess it was just the brand that I was into, not the clothes. Now I look back and wonder why I bought a few pieces of clothing from thoses stores. At some point I think the name brand and the annoying saegull or moose or eagle on the side of your shirts just make them even more annoying! Well, anyway I really like to shop at Forever 21 and Love Culture now. I like the styles there and they aren't that expensive. My style has changed to be more focused on accessories like right now I really like scarves because it's kind of cold.

I am awaiting the comeback of Super Junior as a whole. No more subgroups please! 4 is more than enough. But I know of course Father SM will indeed bring on more subgroups. I wonder what the concept is this time. I hope they don't look like what they looked like when they did Don't Don. I mean, I love that song and the dance, but those hairstyles have got to go.

I'm addicted to the Gee dance, as you know. I have most of it. I don't know where my not liking of SNSD started. Was it the many scandals or Jessica or the big dirty mouth of Tiffany? Or is it the fact that they can't perforem live most of the time? Sorry, just not to my liking. And that crazy Soshi fan that stabbed an Elf. I'll admit Elf are a bit crazy enough but stabbing them? That's just...stupid Korean fandom, no obssession to a dangerous state. After loking at some of their before debut pictures has given me so much confidence in succeeding if I audition for SM Entertainment because some of them look so different! It's crazy, you think people might be born like that, but nope it's all thanks to plastic surgery.

I'm really impressed at FT Island and there comeback on SBS Inkigayo. Song Seung Hyun (I think that's his name, right?) is really stepping up to the spot of Wonbin. I love how they used Vivaldi's Winter in the intro for Mising U, it's truly really beautiful.

Celebrity Look-A-Like:Eunhyuk & Tablo

I've always knew about this one but never put it up until today when I saw this picture of them together. They look like each other right? Or is it just my eyes? They are both the rappers of of their groups. Eunhyuk even covered Fan by Epik High on Sukira/Kiss the Radio.

Celebrity Look-A-Like: Lee Jun Ki & Yesung

From the first time I saw Yesung in Super Junior I immediately thought of Lee Jun Ki. They do look alike, even the hair in these pictures at least. Enough said.

*Hey that necklace on Yesung's neck is on sale at http://www.yesasia.com/us/super-junior-ye-sung-style-headset-necklace/1005150389-0-0-0-en/info.html for $14.99 + shipping(prices may vary on the sales taking place and the shipping price).

Happy Thanksgiving!

This is turning out to be a very boring Thanksgiving. Not to mention, I have a history presentation on Wednesday and I completely have no idea of the siginificance of my topic. But let's start on a kind of happy note.

I got my Super Show DVD yesterday in the mail, after I came home from watching Twilight with some friends. Twilight was okay. I thought it would have been better since the books were so captivating. The Super Show DVD was great. There were more songs being lip-synched than I thought but those were the songs they danced really heavily in like Don't Don and Twins (Knock Out). It was really touching to hear elf sing almost the whole song and to see the member of Super Junior in tears of joy and thankfulness. I was singing too ^.^

Even if it's Thanksgiving today, we should be thankful everyday.

Hello Peeps <3

It's been more than a month since I last posted and I apologize for that. I have ben really busy lately and I still am, I just decided to go on and post a short little note. I ordered the Super Show DVDs! Finally, I didn't get the package with the poster in tube. Before I was, but the poster wasn't that good looking. I would have preferred the original one that's out of print already. Well, at least I get something. :)

I have this new obsession with Kim Jeong Hoon ever since like yesterday. I was watching Goong, and then I just thought: Wow, he's such a good actor and he's really cute >.< So now I want to watch Witch Yoo Hee, which I might be able to borrow from my friend. But I might not because of her little sisters and pfft their little grudges against the pretty ones. (inside joke XD) I hope they will, and get over their little grudges.

And Epik High! Wow their new mini-album Lovescream is so much softer than they usually are! But I still love it, especially 1 Minute 1 Second. Tablo is even writing a book. He's went to Stanford with in an English literature major. Amazing, his English, obviously has no accent at all. But the accent is cute sometimes, haha.

Happy Turkey Day in advance! I'll proabably post on that day anyway.

Celebrity Look-A-Like: Lee Hong Ki & Kang-In

To start off my new segment, I have chosen Lee Hong Ki of F.T. Island (left) and Kang-In of Super Junior (right) to be in the first post. Isn't the resemblance uncanny? Unbelivable! They could be like brothers except their last names are Lee and Park (Kang-in). Cousins, maybe?

Sorry about the photos! they're kida messy because I can't open the add image button that Blogger has so I had to use my own html.

Super Show

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The DVDs for Super Junior's Super Show which was on 2/22/08 in the Seoul Olympic Park are going to be out on 10/2/08. You can preorder them on http://www.yesasia.com/. There are two versions, one with a folded poster and one with the same poster in a tube. The CDs an everything else are the same. The folded poster version is $34.99 which is $10 less than the one with the poster in the tube which is $44.99, but protection for the poster is best, I guess. I would rather put up a nice un folded poster than a folded one because it looks prettier. The problem is I don't know whatthe poster looks like. If it looks like the posters sold by itself of Super Show (which I wanted to buy before) then, I'll go with the tube. If it's some cheappy looking one, probably not.

Happy 6th Day of Fall!

I can't wait to be able to hear the crisp crunch on leaves when I step on them, making a trail down the sidewalk. Wearing scaves and sweatersto my joy, and not suffering a heat stroke from it. The vivid colors of the road I drive down everyday, Halloween costumes, pumpkin pie, and enough turkey to last you a year are things I can't wait. So all the colors inspired an outfit...Okay maybe not the colors but I got a new outfit. Sorry I was going to post pics but that picture button is kind of wonky for me today. D:

Speaking of HAPPY, Super Junior-Happy...Well, I don't know what happened to them lately but I'm listening to them right now ^.^ And seriously happy is the only word that describes them. You turn happy when you listen to them. These are their Cooking? Cooking! albums, each different versions.

Don't Don!

I really like this song, even if it sounds kinda angry. I never really knew what they were singing so I googled the English lyrics of it and here's what I got:

Money, Money! (Don't Don)

If this is the end, if there's not another chance,
I'm gonna tell you that you're all wrong
All you people who can't laugh in this comedic world, go away

*Money! Money! Everything in this world is about money
You! that's stuck in a circle
What is your mind
(Rap) You outta control, what is your mind
I beg you to look around you, you can see the desire in one's eyes

(Rap) Stop bangin my head, my eyes gone red..
Slowly you're drifting afar..
You have more than enough in your life
Be happy in your life with what you've got..
Even though those people with dreams are disappearing one by one, nothing seems to be changing

The world is mine.
I'm the way of this world
When I was waiting for those to become happy
I just happened to grab my opportunity a little sooner than others
There's no consideration for the weak

Even if you burn up all the fireworks inside me, I can never give up
It's not for them but for the children of our future

Don't be so disappointed, it's not me!
It's the world that made you like that

Everything that I've wanted I always get
Even the world may turn it's back on me,
I close my eyes and ears
I'm going to make them dizzy,
I just need an ok head and some money

Even though you burned up all the fireworks inside me, I want to look out after you
It's for my kids who are to go living in this world

*Money! Money! Everything in this world is about money
You! that's stuck in a circle
What is your mind
(Rap) You outta control, what is your mind
I beg you to look around you, you can see the desire in one's eyes
(Rap) Stop bangin my head, my eyes gone red..

**Don't.. Don't.. Let's stop now
And take off your hypocritic mask

(Rap) Free yourself! From your hypocrisy and from your fake mask
Everyones waiting,
(Rap) Throw it away! Your hypocrisy and your mask



So basically this song is talking about money! I would have never thought that. The phrases in bold stood out to me so much because lately I have been wanting a lot of things and just not thinking about the things that I have already have, and I just realized I already have sooo much. I am incredibly blessed. And that's why I posted the lyrics here. But a new sweater and shoes won't hurt, right? ;P

Yesung

I saw in 世界日報 (World Journal), in the Entertainment section of 8/10/08 that Yesung fell off the stage during the rehearsal of their song Pajama Party in the KBS Music Bank. He fell the distance of 150 centimeters. He said he felt pain in his shoulders, I think. They immediately called for an ambulance and Yesung was escorted to the hospital. The he got transferred to another hospital to be examined more closely. He didn't perform that day. Let's all pray for him to have a fast recovery. Get well! Yesung hwaiting!

New Stuff

Wow I have been on the recieving end this week! Well, do school supplies count?

Yesterday, I got a red-purple polka dot, 4-subject notebook (my 1st time seeing a 4-subject notebook), a Domo-kun folder, book covers, and a Camp Rock folder. The notebook came with a free 1-year subscription to Cosmo!girl magazine. I went into Target thinking I would get like patterned or animal folders but instead Jonas Brothers (of course), Demi Lovato, and Domo-kun are on the covers of my folders. I got 3 new book covers. a swirly looking one, a striped one, and one with rows and rows of (mostly) blue hearts. And today...I'm so happy because I got The Second Album of Super Junior and their movie Attack on the Pin-Up Boys.

I watched Attack on the Pin-Up Boys before but I got it anyway. The movie, to me is...weird and not really Oscar worthy if it were in America. But its a movie you just watch because you feel like it.

The Second Album comes with a DVD that plays in all regions, which makes me so happy. The CD has 14 songs and the DVD has 1. Marry U Jacket Sketch 2. Prologue 3. Relay Talk 4. Member Personal Story! "Talk to Myself!" 5. Epilogue 6. Don't Don music video Making Film 7. Don't Don music video (version 1) 8. Marry U music video Making Film. Sadly the DVD does not have English subs so I had to guess what they were saying with the few Korean words I knew, but for some, I watched the subbed videos on http://www.youtube.com/. I can happily dance the chorus of Don't Don with Super Junior dancing along on my TV!

Happy Happy Happy~

This is a sub group of Super Junior. They aren't that new though, they debuted in June. Super Junior Happy is kinda like Super Junior Trot (Suju-H doesn't sing trot) but with Yesung instead of Heechul and without the crazy sequined suits. Instead they have dressed like school students perhaps. Eunhyuk almost always has a backpack on. Their *Cooking? Cooking! and *Pajama Party music videos are the cutest I have ever seen. The dance steps in the music videos are very easy to do (and very cute). I never really paid much attention to them until my friend told me she got al the songs and that they were really cute. Be sure to check out their website, http://superjunior-happy.iple.com/
*See below for the music videos!


Super Junior-Happy-Pajama Party


Super Junior-Happy-Cooking? Cooking!

8.8.08

So the supposed luckiest day in Chinese culture has arrived and so has the 2008 summer Olympics. All the athletes 加油! Bring some gold medals back to the USA! I saw Hangeng's leg of the torch run thingy and it was like 5 seconds to the next person. I was like O_O" thats it?! Anyway the opening ceremony in the USA is in 2ish hours away and I'm gonna have to record it because I'm going to church. It's 7:30-12:00 pm! Thats a really long ceremony. The people who actually saw the Olympics in person are so lucky! It must have been amazing.


Congratulations to Super Junior who won Favorite Artist of Korea. They beat Big Bang, Wonder Girls, and Girl's Generation. Super Junior hwaiting! I'm so happy because I voted for them like 5 times! :D Siwon's English makes your heart melt!

Well, school starts on the 18th for me. Yeah, I know, sucks right. That's not the worst part...I have to wear tube socks! I don't even know where to get them! But I got time, I need to get my other school supplies too. It was only this year that I realized how many trees we kill on notebooks alone not mentioning other stuff like binders, backpacks, pencils, etc. So I have made a vow to buy less and reuse more.

I was watching Brain Battle guest starring T.O.P, Taeyang, and Seungri from Big Bang and Supernova, I think. they're actually really good at math, lol. And everytime they solved a math problem right they did the "Baby, Baby, Baby" dance from Last Farewell.

Ok now for the materialistic side of me. I really really want a black and white stripe shirt of some sort. It's kinda fobby so the only site I tried to find it in was http://www.yesstyle.com/ and I found some...but my parents don't want me to order them. *SECRET ORDERING*
http://www.yesstyle.com/en/Product.aspx?pid=1010896173&section=women (the ears are so cute!)

Can You Remember Them All?

Another Side of Eunhyuk

I am gonna have tons of pictures if I keep going at this rate. But Eunhyuk loos so...different (in a good way) in this one. Last one I promise!
