12/23/13….Actually 12/25/143

It’s been a while. During this time away, I have watched many dramas, took many tests and made so many changes.
Since drama reviews are time consuming and have had no requests to do a review, I shall briefly rate recent dramas I have watched.
Let’s start off with the probably most popular one of them all…
image

The Heirs

image
Just like the flavor pumpkin spice, this drama was over-hyped. I did enjoy seeing some of my favorite actors (Lee Min Ho, Kim Woo Bin and Park Shin Hye) but this isn’t a drama I would highly suggest to someone.

image

Master’s Sun

image
This drama had an interesting plot and the funny and serious parts evened out each other. I really enjoyed watching this drama and was somewhat sad when it ended.
image

The Queen’s Classroom

image
I’m really curious for what type of audience this drama was made for because I really did contemplate to not continuing watching but I ended up watching it all the way to the end and don’t regret it all. It was both cute and serious and it did have a moral. Many of my friends didn’t give this drama a shot because it being about little kids but I really wish they did. It wasn’t bad of a drama at all.
 image

Shark

image
Kim Nam-Gil is the leading male actor in this drama and I think should tell you this drama is super good! (I really like his acting okay). This was a serious drama which usually isn’t my style but this was really good. I would highly recommend to others.
image

Medical Top Team

image
Maybe because I plan to be in the medical field,  this drama was interesting to me. It reminds me of an American soap opera but not as boring (I think soap operas are extremely boring haha)
image

Beautiful Man

image
It has a typical type of story line with a twist to it which I like! Also, it’s cheesy yet serious so it’s entertaining. It’s still airing so I cannot say that I love it (because I don’t right now), so we’ll see when it finishes~
image

Reply 1994image

I am honestly in love with this drama. I was a big fan of Reply 1997. It’s better than what I was expecting out of this drama. It’s not completed yet, but I know I will love it (maybe not how it ends though)

By the time I got the strength to finish writing on this post, it was Christmas LOL so Merry Christmas to everyone who reads this.  I didn’t get any presents since my presents are coming later this week (or next week) so yeah I don’t have anything to brag about yet. I got a hair cut and I really like it, but it seems stupid that I cut my hair off just to put extensions in it. I think I will blog about my hair when it comes and I get it “installed” haha.

T.O.P - DOOM DADA

OH MY GOODNESS!! T.O.P SOLO COMEBACK YALL, I FEEL LIKE CRYING. I’VE BEEN WAITING SO  LONG FOR THIS.
I came home from training, scrolled through Tumblr and I see a GIF and automatically went to YouTube and watched the music video of TOP’s song, “Doom Dada”.

The black and white effect on the video reminds me of ‘Turn It Up’.  The sound is actually very original and the video is creative. Both the lyrics and MV was meaningful (in my opinion- well duh; this is all my opinions!) If you listen to the lyrics at least twice, I think you really start understand and appreciate the song more. Click here to view English lyrics of the song.image
image
These are actually my favorite parts of BOTH the song and MV. haha I really like when he says “Doom dada..” It’s quite catchy (brb as I go around my house trying to say this tongue twister)

image
I’m starting to think posing with an object while sitting a chair is one of his signature moves haha. He’s sitting in a chair looking so classy and professional and then there is that deer he has next to him as if its pet. I actually like this and softens up the MV.
I’m also starting to think his creative mind was inspired by GD especially with the cry baby-faced person and all the motions he did on the motorcycle as it was moving.
imageimageimage
This song has a deeper meaning to it, but even if it didn’t I would honestly still seriously love this song. I enjoyed this song a lot. I actually hope TOP releases more songs very soon. Even though that most likely not happen, I will continue to hope haha

11.2.13

Even though I make horrid grades, school takes up most of my time even on the weekends. My hours at work have been cut back like A LOT.  The first semester ends in December and I need to push my grades up in 3 classes before it ends. I always got pretty bad grades but not to the point I end up failing a semester. It never seeped in until now how much failing a class would affect me and how hurtful it would be. Instead of studying for my test on Halloween night, I ended up hanging out with my friend until 10:30PM; I was so freaking tired I just ended up going to sleep without even washing my face or taking a shower –sigh-.  I just realized today was November and that I only have one month to pull up my grades…I just failed a test yesterday in Chemistry which I could’ve easily passed if I studied a little the night before.
Yeah I have nothing positive or exciting to update about. Lately, I’ve just been extremely sad about the most irrelevant things if you think about it. The saddest thing should be my awful grades oh my goodness. I know I shouldn’t stress about it more, but if you had my grades (which are horrible so I won’t share), then I think you would also be stressing.
I have now caught a cold (I believe) and well, hopefully I do not update my blog until December reaches because I seriously need to spend the rest of this month with my head in a book. it’s 9:38AM and I would usually be on Tumblr or watching a Korean drama as soon as I wake up but no, today I will try to study okay ^^

SHINee–Everybody

Today is Thursday and should’ve been at school but I was so exhausted I guess my body slept through all 5 alarms this morning. Scrolling through Tumblr, I found out that Teen Top released a new song (+MV) ‘Date’. Honestly, it’s not a song I would download and enjoy on a daily basis so I gave it a thumbs up and went on with my scrolling. THEN, some girl was talking about how she enjoyed watching SHINee’s comeback and of course, I automatically went searching for it!


image
This is 2 seconds so far of the video. Wow look at that! Wires connected to them and suspense sounds playing ooOOO! (This is what I was thinking in my head). Everything seemed very creepy to be honest.


image
Barely 10 seconds in, it starts looking very creepy and has dubstep playing the background. Eventually we get to the boys, and they are laying in what I call, the classic room (basically every KPOP group has made an MV with this type of background). I started getting disappointed to be honest but I didn’t give up hope just because of the background. When they started getting off the floor, I just thought repeatedly in my head “no…no…no”. I really was expecting the song to be filled with overplayed beats of dubstep but then

image
After this, the song really impressed. It was really nice! And look at our babies dressing in white uniforms ^^. I will leave Key alone with his long socks because at least it’s not socks and sandals *ahem*.
image
Pointing out Jonghyun’s blonde hair because it suits him very nice, wouldn’t you agree?

The dubstep parts I disliked  didn’t get to me because the chorus was extremely nice! Even though I said I was disappointed about the class room, the MV was overall nice. I’m not so sure about the dance moves so I’m excited to see how it would look in a live performance.
image
I will end this post with a glance of someone’s chest from the MV.~

9.14.13>>9.22.13

9/14/13

I’ve been so busy between school and work which is quite sad since I haven’t even been making good grades!  I’m not going to get hard on myself about that since I do know myself and I know it’s because of something has been going on to make me feel sidetracked, and now I think I’m getting better!
I’m now starting to learn how to manage my time and somewhat put myself on a schedule haha. Also, I just started to work out again not just preparing myself for soccer but it’s just good for my health mentally and physically. Yes, I have decided not to quit soccer. A friend of mine died recently and it really felt like a wake up call to stop giving up, set goals and reach for them! So far, as I’ve been typing, I feel like I’m just cutting to the chase already instead of dragging it out like I usually do haha.
I’ve been picking up crazy, late hours at work AND on school days which is crazy! But I can’t be complaining since I really need the money right now. This sounds crazy embarrassing, but I didn’t have my phone on for a while and I finally paid for unlimited on my own lololol (sounds so simple but I’m still 16 okay).  I also bought a phone case for my phone…I’m trying to remember what I bought earlier than the phone case but I cannot so I guess very pointless stuff haha (food!)

9/22/13

Lately, I’ve extremely busy to the point it makes me feel so stressed out. Since last night, I’ve been depressed. Why is so stressful??! I barely have time to breathe, and after all my hard work, it feels like it was all for nothing. I hate feeling so worthless, ugly, stupid, useless, bothersome, a failure. I have nothing positive to say right now but I wanted to update my blog. I want to look back at this blog one day not looking at empty gaps but words of mine. At least here, I don’t feel so burdened and as if I have to be the best. I want to be in my bed all day crying and I can’t. It’s so annoying. I hate working, I hate school, I hate interacting with people, I hate having to eat, I hate washing my hair, I hate everything. I want to go away for a while and just have a break from everything. I want to sink deep into the sea. I’m so tired of having to act like I’m alright; I’m just really fed up right now.

Red Velvet Ray Gun

I was going to write a review on Teen Top’s new song “Rocking” and also G-Dragon’s “Coup d'état” BUT, I remembered that I was sent a CD by an awesome AWESOME group.
The other day, I created a Nell (넬) station because Pandora finally started putting recognizing Korean artists and Nell is my favorite group. After "Ocean of Light” played, of course I was expecting a different artist’s song to play. Well it ended it up being this song:
I liked it so much, I thumbed it up, searched for it on YouTube, favorited it, commented on the song, then downloaded it (haha sorry I had to). A day later, they inboxed me thanking me for liking their song on Pandora and they would love to send me their CD. Can I just say how awesome that was?? Do you know any artists that personally messages you, offers to send you a CD and for your feedback? People like this who care about their fans, old or new, and sincerely care about their music should be famous and I know one day they will make it there since there so good. Actually, it doesn’t even matter if they get famous. With their positive outlook, they will attract so many fans that will love them.
Other than ‘Building A Better Heart’, ‘End of The World’ is one of my favorites. I equally love all the tracks on this CD except ‘Danger Dolls’ since that style has never been my cup of tea haha.
If you read this post, and like ‘Building A Better Heart’, please listen to their other songs on their channel! And please show them some love and nice comments (and also helpful informative opinions and tips on their music since it can help them become better!~) I actually enjoyed their music and wanted to share it with the people that view my blog time to time. *Send links to your friends. Share share share!!*
I will be going to school tomorrow and I will bring my CD to show my friend. Watch her never return my CD wtfff >.>
I will end this post with pictures I took of the CD etc.. I took pictures with it (yes I’m lame JUDGE ME) but I will most likely not post it since I took it after a long of work fml.

Felt so damn special because it was first class mail hahaha Hot smile

Also I really didn’t really include the name of the band, but I think you know the name by now haha (if not it’s Red Velvet Ray Gun!)
Actually I have a four page assignment that is due tomorrow and I haven't started it so here’s a farewell to my blog again for a while sighh.

8.18.13

My vacation wasn’t as fun as I was expecting it to be –sighs-.
My school started on the 7th of this month and since then, my time has been consumed with basic things like tumblr, shuffling and the rest studying or in school.  I’m a sophomore (erhmagod, I know I’m soooOOO young, right??!) and so far, I like all my classes MINUS Geometry and that’s because I’m horribly bad it no matter how hard I study.
I made a couple of new friends this year,  I recently joined student council and I’ve been somewhat happy with how things have been going up until yesterday. But then again, I do not care about that poopy situation that occurred and it can be easily resolved by  stop associating myself with the problem. It’s 5:29PM and I go to work at 7..Lately I’ve been working lately and I don’t complain even when I work on school days because nobody understands how much I need the money haha. Also this is embarrassing to admit but I’ve been phoneless for literally a whole year and I can now finally pay like 75 bucks and text people wherever I please heheh…
Before I left for vacation, I said how I doubted not writing reviews but…when I got home I got so annoyed with the idea of watching Growl and the other new songs that were released haha. My friends keep questioning about artists which kind of somewhat listen to it but my taste has been so picky lately even with food.
I don’t even know what to talk about in this post. Hmm.. I’ve been on Tumblr, MY mother bought a new coffee maker and I love it because it makes coffee so damn fast and you don’t really have to clean it! Yeee~

WP_004139
I was looking through the pictures I took and this was one of them while I was in Brooklyn,NY.
WP_004180
This is a picture of a wall of a west indian store I used to go to as a kid. The wall is very huge and it’s filled with posters etc collected over the years  and this barely a section of the wall wtfff.
WP_004182
While there, we brought some Trinidadian merch. This was actually expensive! (totaled to about $100? not even a lot of stuff) Was really upset that the little bags of red mango were $5 and it seriously tasted like crap but throughout the week we came back for the kumra ^^(which is a trinidadian (or indian) snack that I used to call sweet french fries when I was young because some them are shaped like fries haha)
WP_004350
I didn’t really take a lot of pictures so here’s  a picture of my leg when I was at Taco Bell yesterday haha
it’s now 6:05 so I will get ready for work now. 안녕!! (PS: I’ve been studying Korean well lately!)

July 19, 2013

I heard Infinite and Beast released new songs (others also but I’m not positive so I won’t say!). Also, Exo made a drama MV! I was going to review at least two songs/MV’s but something came up that just had me in the lowest mood the last couple of days and I was not able to review it. I leave later today to go visit my hometown in Massachusetts. I live in Georgia, so this will be a long ride!
I wanted someone to talk to about my problems that I’ve been having recently, but of course I had literally no one to talk to! But now, I’m at the point where I seriously do not care and I just want some food. I plan to eat a lot of Puerto Rican and Trinidadian food while I’m there and just forget all the crap that has been going on. I do not really want to waste time shedding tears because that won’t make things better, just make me feel worse! Anyways, I guess this is an update and I kind of feel bad for not reviewing things before I left.
2 hours later: Feeling like crap and just praying to God this trip will make me feel better. I really hope to get amnesia because this is my making my heart hurt so much. I thought I got heart broken many times already in the past but this is the first time my heart seriously hurts so bad. 내 마음이 너무 아픈데 Sad smile  I will most likely have internet when I’m there (duh! I can’t live without internet connection!) so I would appreciate requests!~ Also, I’m thinking about recording my reactions haha it would be funny to watch with all of my old friends and see their reaction towards Korean music!
I would keep typing but my emotions keep going from motivated super to sad!

4th of July.

If you didn’t already know, I’M AMURICAN (usa! Usa!! USa!!! USA!!!!). Happy Independence Day America! Sadly, I don’t know how many years we have been independent off the top of my head but at least I didn’t say happy 2013th Independence Day like some (actually a lot haha)  people have!
It’s very rainy in my area so mostly all parties/get-togethers are cancelled our just nobody is going out all together like my family. I was actually hoping for all my family to leave so I can have the house to myself to roam free! JUST KIDDING: I really want to play LoL (League of Legends) and my mouse is broken so I want to play on someone else’s computer or steal their mouse while they’re gone. *sob* Nobody is leaving! I woke up at 6:30AM (my sleeping schedule flipped and now I get up super early) and talked to a couple of people and my mood was just so SO bad. I went back to sleep, woke up at noon and worked out! After that I just simmered down and just read a couple of blog posts and drank many cups of tea. I was expecting my mood to be more lower than it is right now but I guess that it’s good I’m having a neutral vibe going on instead of a negative one.
I just ate some goodies my mum brought home from work and I was scrolling through YouTube watching random videos of someone I’m subscribed to and I got a rush to freaking go exercise and tone up my body! I’m too lazy and also get very anxious after eating a lot to check my weight on the scale but my ~lucky shuffling shorts~ can no longer fit me wtf as if I can put both of my legs in one side of the pants in order for this stay on my waist (or you can say hips) so I think I lost more weight but I do feel as if my stomach and thigh skin is somewhat lose and more jiggly. I’ve noticed this for a while but have been so lazy to do sit-ups or squats….I DESPISE SQUATS even though they would be so helpful I just really hate them. I automatically feeling the pain and burn when I just do one wtffff. Well I guess I’m not going to end my 4th of July with Fireworks but with a lot of sweat and soreness.
webcam-toy-photo2(3)
Here’s a picture of how I was for a few hours LOL. In my favorite sweater even though a lot of threads are hanging lose from washing. I sat on my bed in this big sweater, sipping tea and living on my computer as I usually do. Also, yes it is summer but my house is freezing because we never take off our AC (amen~).
Gonna pee and then workout byebye

B.A.P–Coffee Shop

June 27, 2013 BAP released their song “Coffee Shop”
If you are a fan or already know of B.A.P, you know this isn’t their style of music they usually put out. They came off as gangster-like fashion sense and also they were a Hip-Hop group. When I saw the teaser for this song, I thought it was interesting. There wasn’t much but an instrumental playing so I couldn’t hardcore judge them off of that and of course wait until the song and MV were released.
I won’t lie, I haven’t been keeping up with K-pop lately since it’s not my favorite but I do follow a girl on Twitter who lives and breathes K-pop and she’s also a big B.A.P fan with Zelo as her bias. My twitter was full of her tweets of her reactions so of course I had to see it! I honestly liked it! Whoever was their stylist for there clothing in this music video, I want to give them a hi5 EXCEPT Zico  with socks and sandals  on.
image
Why would you do that?? His outfit is so nice if you just look from knees and above.
Out of everyone, Bang got me mesmerized the most from their looks. Is it that haircut? His sleek rapping? That tucked in shirt??? Maybe all those reasons I just said..Also did anyone also notice he went from suave to GD style in 2.5 seconds and pulled it off so nicely?

imageimage
P E R F E C T I O N
vfdfjkv. I honestly got emotional with this song when Zelo….started singing. I put my cup of coffee aside and immediately started to spazz. I love this song, I love the Music Video, I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS of course, except for Zelo’s  socks and slippers going on. This song is very mellow compared the types of songs they usually make which is pro on my side since I can listen to this song anytime in any mood that I am in. This song is just really good okokok!

Ending this post with a beautiful gif of Zelo singing and putting an earphone in his ear. (source)

6.27.13

I recently went downhill, experienced a horrible and different form of anxiety attack and that was basically how my days were going until recently. I met up with someone a couple of days ago and since then, I’ve been moderately happy and in a good mood. Messaging someone first who I’m not very close with, is basically one of my phobias. If they don’t reply, or lead the conversation on they way I expected them to, I just start spazzing. not feeling so great and like right now, feeling quite depressed. I feel like I give off a bad vibe or they just don’t like me if I message them first and now it caused me to overthink! I started to like this person probably more than they like me. They have someone better to talk to, they are tired of me, I’m annoying. Basically, I’m not going to even reread this and fix mistakes or choppy thoughts because I just feel so sad right now. I found happiness and knew it wouldn’t last forever so I lived in the moment, savoring every single moment but I wasn’t expecting it to slip away this fast and this soon. OH WELL. I mean I think I might be able to get over this the next time I leave my house but I have no plans for tomorrow so it might not be a pleasant day for me.
I just made myself a cup of hazelnut iced coffee (typical) and now I’m questioning why I even let this get to me but I know I’m only questioning that because I probably like coffee more than I like people. ANYWAYS: Other than this mood swing I had earlier today, what has been going on with my life? Nothing much! Trying to get everything everything settle so I can get my schedule for work, watching Korean dramas half-ass and sleeping a lot! Something awesome is that I made a friend and a Korean tutor at the same time. One more thing I have to say before I end this post is that I lost around 10 pounds and now at the weight I used to be the heaviest at and now if I lose about 15 more pounds I’ll be at my normal weight and then I can happily lose weight after that without falling deep into depression because I’m no longer overweight (probably tbh since I’m not at my normal weight again yet) therefore I can’t really sob about being fat (thinking). The hard work is paying off!
I started this post when I was sad but now I’m just hungry and tired so I think I’m gonna eat some eggs and a smoothie! I guess this was an update by the way~

06.15.13

I wrote a post a while back and yeah it took me like 6 days to complete it because the topic just really spoiled my mood every time I talked about it. My computer seriously never crashes on me but of course, it randomly had to on the day I finished and was saving and clicking the publish button like NOOO so yeah half of my awesome thoughts were deleted *cries*.

Today my mom was so peppy and I don't understand why but she literally bought anything me and my siblings wanted today including fast food! I just wanted to say so far, I have lost 9 pounds! It's not that big of a deal but this whole time I was doubting myself to find out I've been losing weight and getting closer each day to my normal weight again! Anyways, I had some fries, one cheese burger and a vanilla milkshake from mc donalds. I ate some fries and my shake and continued with my day until around 10PM, I went for a walk with my sister and she bought me a slushie. I was exhausted because I had to take care of business this morning and then go to work at 4 and I guess I was a little too excited to go to bed that night so I knocked out when I came home from the walk with my sister and just woke up seriously feeling like crap! My stomach hurts so much and I swear I will never eat this much trash again so suddenly. I have been sleeping during the day and up during the night! I wish my schedule could stay like this but I did get a job but I don't have serious hours or anything yet since I'm new and still have to complete training via computer (heard it's dreadful!) so I'll be fine for now~
 Bought some green tea and of this brand since I was a fan of it when I used to be obsessed with sweet tea. Like who doesn't crave some cold green tea?

I'm not using Windows Live Writer right now so I guess my pictures might look displaced but I chilled on my back patio today and it was refreshing did even notice how freaking how it was today.


Also today I went to a local hair supply store where I went on and off since I've been living in this city and the lady must not remember my face because she gets so shocked every time I say thank you in Korean. Today she replied with, “omo…어떻게????” haha I couldn't have a long conversation with her since I did say it while my mom and sister were cashing out. I'll see her soon (of course, I love hair supply stores!) and let's see if she remembers my face this time!
