****clam down...

(sigh!)

X_x.

it's always the same.

don't know if it's really my fault. (sigh!)

and i also know if it's really that big of a deal...

sometimes, i just wanna scream.

but frankly, i can't.

i really really can't.

i just need to calm down a bit...

x_x.

i can't complain. i'm not in the position...

i can't blame anyone else. it's clearly not their fault...

i can't say i'm to blame. it's not a mistake...

x_x.

i just feel indifferent.

and i don't wanna feel it...

x_X.

i just can't SAY, I'M NOT OKAY...

Sulli and Taemin's CF

Annyeong:-)

Annyeonghashimnikka everyone!!!

haha...just a simple korean greeting..:-)

hhhmmmm...(my stomach's already rumbling)....

so there, my housemate and i are alive on the internet world right now (well obviously)...we're actually both having a hang-over with SJ's new single, BONAMANA (miina). i've posted this already haven't i?! see, i'm really having a serious case of the "song-hang-over-thing."

well anyways, earlier, my housemate showed me something she found on the internet (twitter probably), and they were comments (or should i say, BAD CRITICISM AND RACISM) from Justin Bieber fans. the comments were very offensive really. especially for koreans. they were saying things like, 'we' asians are stupid for listening to the new single of Super Junior. they were all questioning why "Bonamana" is trending on twitter.

this coming from a fan of k-pop; "we fans are just showing our support for our favorite idol group. we are not looking for trouble or trying to make one just because we 'trended' a topic about them. we did not deliberately 'trended' this topic on twitter to boot out Bieber on the list. just like you, we want our idol to be the trending topic on twitter. if you don't like it, then fine. you don't have to say those filth about Asians and about SJ. FYI, we are not saying anything against Justin Bieber so you shouldn't say anything against SJ or other K-pop idol groups or our race. to make things clear, i'm not looking for trouble, i just wanna extend my thoughts on the matter, mainly because i'm Asian and i'm a fan. to all ELFs, and other K-pop fans, hwaiting!!! let's support SJ and other idol groups!!!"

(sigh)

just wanna share my thoughts....or else i'll explode!!!:-)



just wanted to post yoona:-)

Bonamana (4th jib)

Super Junior's new single is already out on the net!!! Bonamana is the title if anyone would ask. i just heard the song this afternoon and it was the kind of song that would make you wanna repeat it over and over. the song is really danceable. haha. the beat's awesome but the intro is a bit like sorry sorry. :-)

anyways, i'm going to post here a photo...it's for my tumblr account;-)

what i did on the internet while waiting for my download to finish

29 minutes remaining...

then 28 minutes remaining...

26 minutes remaining...

then back to 29 minutes remaining...

then to 55 minutes remaining...

wahhh!!!!! this really annoys me a whole lot!!!!
i really hate waiting for my downloads to finish...usually, i'm really very very patient but waiting-for-downloads draws the line. >:-(

by the way, I'm downloading Choi Siwon's new drama, Oh! My Lady. it's already showing in Korea on SBS and i really wanna watch this, because i'm a fan of Siwon (because of Super Junior). i'm really blaming my housemates for this....:-) saranghaeyeo guys!

well anyway, i downloaded the English subtitles yesterday to make the work easier. i planned to download the first 5 episodes (which were all available and downloadable on the internet) this week and the next. i started downloading the episode 1 6:00pm (i think) today. and guess what, i 'm not yet finished!!! and it's already 9:47 in the evening!!! i have my paper (the introduction part) to do and a quiz tomorrow so i have to review the previous lessons tonight. oh man! my mom's gonna kill me if she finds out i'm wasting my time here! and my bill's already close to 75 pesos!!!

urgh!!!

i really really really hate it when the internet is slowing down every minute or so...

(sigh!)

oh well. i can't do anything about it now...X_x

guess, i'll just have to wait for it to finish up...:-)

[update: 15 minutes remaining, 11% more...:-) it's close!]

so there, this time, i'll try to enumerate the things i previously done while waiting for my download to reach 90%...:-)

i logged in to facebook, tumblr, twitter, and youtube, simultaneously earlier. which i think contributed a lot in making my download even slower. so when i realized just that, i closed the tabs. but apparently, it didn't help whatsoever in making it faster...same speed...arrrggghh!!!
then mozilla kept sticking every now and then. can you believe that?! sheesh! or as the koreans say it, aish! (which is probably the "mansion's" favorite expression nowadays...) :-).

anyways, i found great things on twitter. that reminds me, i never got to read every tweet on my home until hours ago. usually, i just browse the tweets and look for those that are from my favorite artists...:-) good news for ELFs, Sungmin has a twitter already! lol.:-) as my housemate exclaimed (tweeted), the SUJU family on twitter is getting bigger and bigger! haha...and it's true, just recently (about a week ago or so), one of the members, Donghae, started he's on twitter account. probably, it encouraged Sungmin to do the same because two members are already registered on twitter (the other is Shindong). :-). there were a lot of greetings to Zhoumi also, because it's his birthday. i do not know when it is exactly, though. oh well..x_X.

[update: 5 minutes remaining, 4% more!]

because of waiting still, i also had the opportunity of reading my last blog. (it was yesterday's blog, to be exact:-)). it was about the ten types of So Nyeo Shi Dae fans...haha. it was really cool, getting to know the kinds of fans each girl has. just so everyone knows, i'm a Sooyoung fan! :-) i really love her antics and her loud and bold personality. i really love girls that can make me laugh...:-) Sooyoung was my first ever crush in SNSD. haha...(blush). slash on that part:-). i'm also a Sunny fan and a Yoona fan. Sunny is just so cute and bubbly...haha. you should see her when she smiles...:-) Yoona on the other hand, has a bit of "biting" personality, if i may say so myself...haha. :-) but i like her too, even though my housemates don't. :-)

(sigh!)

[update: DOWNLOAD FINISHED!!!]

yes! i can go home!!! :-) (and study;-))

bye!:-)

just-just

i was planning to post a blog about super show 2 last April 10, 2010. but apparently, my so-so schedule would not permit me of doing just that.

oh well...

but surely, i'll post one.:-)

but not now...or tomorrow...or the next day...

but surely i'll not wait for super show 3 to post one for sushow2...:-)

i'm just busy these days...or so i think i am..:-)

TYPES OF SNSD fans

TYPES OF SNSD fans
by Soy @ Soshified

There are 10 general types of SoShi Fans. If you don’t know what SoShi is, then you’re probably not one of these 10 yet. This is just based on the fans of each girl, that I’ve met and have had the pleasure to meet. (I believe as fans, we should know all about the positives of the girls, as well as their flaws, we can only grow stronger with them). Sometimes, I think that the girls and their personalities really do attract a certain group of fans. Also most fans, once again, I’m saying most start off as a Fany fan, because of how approachable she seems.

The first types are the Tiffany Fans. They are extremely possessive of this girl (they all claim that Tiffany is theirs, but Tiffany can’t possibly have that many soul mates). Probably the craziest group of fans you will ever meet. They are the ones that find all of Tiffany’s mistakes because they consider her mistakes and flaws just part of her personality and have grown to accept it. These fans are extremely dedicated to Fany, and their sole purpose is to convert other fans into Tiffany fans by spamming them with her cuteness. Pink is perhaps now their favorite color. They love it when she sings, and even more so when she sings in English. “Hello, I’m SNSD’s brighter than MUSHROOMS, Fany Fany Tiffany”, will forever be a memorable quote for them.

The second types are listed under as Yoona fans. The honestly do run Soshified and just basically everything SNSD related, but they do it quietly. They’re silently deadly, ready to pounce on anyone that messes with Yoona or brings down SNSD. They seem to be slow when it comes to SNSD matters, but when it comes to Yoona; they know her schedule even before she knows it. The thing about Yoona fans is that their tolerance level is low; they really dislike it when fans say the reason why they like Yoona or SNSD is because of how pretty they are. They also have grown to understand that Yoona isn’t that strong of a singer, but their support her acting and CF projects. They might not talk much, but when they do, it’s probably something Yoona-related. “1,2,3, Go” is one of their favorite expressions of Yoona.

Taeyeon’s fans are third in line. They are much like umma, in that they show support mildly for all 9 of the girls. They are extremely confused on whether or not they support Taengsic or TaeNy, but at the end of the day, they want Taeyeon to grow old, dorky, and find the right guy, even if it’s fun seeing her choose between JeTi. Her fans are quite peculiar, much like her, you don’t know what to expect from them. Sometimes, they might Photoshop weird images of her, or start random butt threads, and they might seem like anti-Taeyeon fans, most of the time, but that’s just the kind of fans she has, they enjoy the comedy in the relationship. They also listen to Chin Chin radio, religiously and and believe that Taeyeon’s voice makes the world go around. They’ve very laid back and chill, easy to get along with folks. “Amajing”, is now the new cool way to say amazing wrong for them, as well as “I RUB YOU, SNSD”.

4th in line are the fans of our lovable Maknae, Seohyun. They are very logical and well-mannered people. These fans are probably the sweetest of the bunch. Most of her fans seem to be guy fans, from what I can see, and many unnie fans. They all seem to support how studious she is, and talented and just overall the idea of taking care of the youngest. They probably know more about Seohyun than anyone else does, but hardly show it, just because they would rather keep her, to themselves. They’re not being selfish, just exclusive. Seohyun fans want her to keep her innocence forever and ever and just can’t wait to see what happens when Seohyun’s potential finally peaks. Her “I love you” confession to Johnny Depp is a favorites in their videos.

Jessica’s fans are the 5th type. Probably the most loyal, out of the nine girls, Sica fans, for the most part, have been following her since her debut. They don’t ever feel the need to jump ships, and I don’t blame them. Some have admitted to actually becoming fans of her after they heard about the rumors and realized how stupid they were. While most of the fans like the fact that Sica is getting more like Ddilsica lately, her true fans, deep down miss her “Ice Princess” ways. They are the type of fans that don’t laugh when the other eight girls are talking, but laugh like crazy, when Sica says something that seems extremely out of sense. You can’t be a Sica fan, unless you use “GorJess” frequently. They find her attitude and real ways very interesting and intriguing.

The 6th type of fan happens to be the Sunny Fan. They are usually like Taeyeon fans for the most part, except have a certain dorky edge to them. They really do love Sunny, and you can tell, they probably download ever bora of Chunji radio, even though they have no idea what the heck they’re saying, cause they’re not Korean, they still know that since Sunny doesn’t get much exposure, they’re number one resource is Chunji. “Bery Good, Yo” happens to be their new greeting and answer to everything. These fans have a very nice sense of humor, sometimes, they just find everything funny. Sunny is the sunshine in their lives. However, I must say, that I have found Sunny’s group of fans to vary the most when it comes to age, and just overall personality, no one can escape her aegyo-ness, no matter how young or how old. Her fanbase is extremely diverse.

Dancers or people with no rhythm really enjoy Hyoyeon and are listed as the 7th type of fan. They can come from either end of the spectrum because both types admire Hyoyeon’s dancing techniques, and how sexy she looks on stage. However, no matter how she rocks that stage, her uniqueness and cute expressions off stage really captivate them. No matter, what others think, they will support Hyoyeon no matter what. Sometimes, honestly, they might be outnumbered, but they are optimistic about future opportunities for Hyoyeon. They want her wish of “conquering Asia in 2008” to come true.

Sure they might eat a lot, but as fans of Sooyoung, the 8th type, learned from the best that food does get you far in life. They were probably crying when Sooyoung announced her last broadcast on Chunji. They’ve probably seen every episode of UM, just for Sooyoung and her crazy antics. These Sooyoung fans are extremely bias even if they’re commenting on another girls’ thread, you can tell by their banner and avatar that Sooyoung was the only one they had in mind. They are really independent, much like Sooyoung. Instead of conforming to just one pairing for her, they believe that since Sooyoung is the “pimp” of the group, all the pairings with Sooyoung are win. They are willing to share her. They like the fact that Sooyoung is loud and upbeat, it really brightens their day. Quotes like “You asked us about our teamwork, but really there is no secret. We just live like sisters.” By Sooyoung really show them another side of her, and they really love sweet things like them.

The 9th type of fan is one that I am oh-too-familiar with. Yuri fans are not afraid to tell you about how perfect Yuri is. In fact, there really isn’t much of a purpose for Yuri fans, they just admire Yuri, in every single way. They really believe the girl can do no wrong, and when she does do something wrong, they just think it’s hilarious. Even when Yuri jokes or screws the other girls over, these fans are laughing most of the time, and think that Yuri is the perfect genius when it comes to joking around. They know the “Oh Duri” imitation and know Yuri’s voice from a mile a way. They have Yuri sense, and they have the ability to forcefully make any conversation about Yuri. They love Yuri’s random English spurts of “Oh Honey” or “Today is Monday”, and believe that the language barrier with Yuri is only temporary, and that one day she will be a prodigy. These fans are hardcore Yuri fans, and will stalk every SNSD video and just monitor what Yuri does. Oh and all of them acknowledge Yusica, even if it’s not their favorite pairing. Even only a handful support Yuri, as their number one, most of SNSD fans in general, can’t help but have her in their top 3. Tiffany’s fans might be the most dangerous, but Yuri’s fans are the scariest when it comes to fangirling/fanboying.

Finally the number 10 type of fan is the self-proclaimed fan of all 9 girls. These fans are perhaps the most dangerous, cause they can easily put you on some type of tangent where you spazz for hours and hours about all 9 of the members. They truly believe in the power of 9, and support all 9 girls. These fans work hard, on understanding, and getting to know a bit of all nine girls. They are open about the fact that they don’t have one favorite, they love all 9 girls, and who could blame them. They know a diverse amount of information about all 9, and aren’t too shy to prove their SNSD knowledge. Nothing beats “Right now, It’s SNSD” for them.

However, in general, from what I have observed as a SNSD fan over the past few months, SNSD has one of the most respectful and united fan bases out there for any artist. Even though everyone has their side favorites, they for the most part, understand that even though there are 9 girls, there is only one generation, and we should support all of SNSD’s ventures. Soshified fans, have a very special emotional attachment to the girls, they have seen the girls struggle with rumors and watch them get to where they are today. They are also proud that SNSD is what it is today. They love the SoShi bond and hopes that one day SNSD will be a legend, and they believe that SNSD will change the era of KPOP as we know it. Real fans understand that SNSD is about the power of nine, and that even if our girls venture on SOLO projects, they will always be So Nyuhs, and that it kills them inside, just as much as it kills us to not have the other 8 girls with them.
——End of article

Well, I am most def. a TIFFANY FAN! Hahahha but I gotta admit, the part where it says Yuri is usually always a top three girl, that is so true If you still havent joined soshified forums…tsk tsk! Go join now! I joined like two months ago and its one of those forums where its impossible to be inactive.

Black SoShi's the new black

So Nyeo Shi Dae released the MV to their comeback song ‘Oh!’ on 27th January and it has been garnering much attention from fans and netizens since its release.

In particular, there was a scene in the MV near the end which featured the entrance of ‘black So Nyeo Shi Dae’, which has been one of the hot topics amongst netizens.

With the fresh and bubbly concept for this MV, netizens’ comments on the clothes and cheerleader concept are “this is the song only So Nyeo Shi Dae can pull off” etc. But near the end of the MV, fans were surprised to see the black and ‘bad’ version of So Nyeo Shi Dae members dressed in all black.

Many fans found it interesting to be looking at 2 different images of the So Nyeo Shi Dae member in one scene.

With that SM Entertainment revealed, “The ‘black So Nyeo Shi Dae’ who appeared at the end of the MV shows part of the concept to the MV of follow-up hit for the girls’ 2nd album.”

So fans not only got to see the ‘Oh!’ MV but also got a glimpse into the concept for the girls’ followup hit.

Meanwhile, the girls will be having their comeback stage on 30th January on MBC Music Core.

--In my opinion, I really do think they could pull that off! Go SNSD!:-)

SoShi's Pre-debut

The members were professionally trained primarily in singing and dancing, while some members were also selected to be trained in acting and modeling. Many of the members already had made names for themselves in the Korean entertainment industry through their participation in magazine ads, television commercials, and small television appearances. For nearly two years, Korean websites speculated about which of the female SM Entertainment trainees would be placed into the group. Before the official release of the group name, Girls’ Generation, it was rumored that the group would be named “Super Girls” after their so-called counterpart, Super Junior. Read their pre-debut roster history >>here<<

2007: Debut and first album

In July 2007, Girls’ Generation had their first performance on Inkigayo. The song the girls performed was called “Into the New World” (Korean: 다시 만난 세계), which became their first single. A show documenting the girls’ debut titled “M.Net’s Girls Go To School” was filmed during this time. This documentary helped the girls appeal to the Korean audience as they rose to controversy.

In August 2007, the single “Into the New World” was released. This single included two other songs, “Beginning” and “Perfect for You” (Korean: 소원), later the song renamed to “Honey” for their self-titled debut album Girls’ Generation. An instrumental of “Into the New World” was also included.

The group began promoting the single soon after its release. Girls’ Generation performed their single on SBS’s Inkigayo, MBC’s Show! Music Core, and on KBS’s Music Bank.

After a short break, the group’s first full album was released in late autumn 2007, with the lead single “Girls’ Generation” (Korean: 소녀시대), a cover of Lee Seung-Chul (Korean: 이승철)’s hit. Promotion for the single started in early November. Marked by dance routines and vocals, “Girls’ Generation” was a hit for the group, and the album has sold 121,143 copies to date, placing 8th in the year-end charts. In early 2008, Girls’ Generation began promoting their second single, “Kissing You“. The music video featured Donghae from Super Junior. This song achieved the #1 spot in the three main TV music rankings—SBS Inkigayo, M.net M.Countdown! and KBS Music Bank.

In March 2008, the album was re-released and re-titled Baby Baby. A third single, “Baby Baby“, was used to promote the album. A digital EP featuring Jessica, Tiffany, and Seohyun was released on April 2008, titled Roommate. The single from the mini-album is “Oppa Nappa” (“Korean: 오빠 나빠”, literally “Bad Brother”, although contextually it refers to an older male friend).

Girls’ Generation, along with fellow artists such as BoA, TVXQ, Super Junior, CSJH the Grace, Zhang Liyin, SHINee and other SM artists participated in SM Town Live ‘08. The tour expanded its route to South Korea, Thailand, and China.

2008–2009: Other activities, return with mini-albums

It was announced in autumn 2008 that Girls’ Generation would be starring in a reality show on M.Net. Titled Factory Girl, the show chronicles the girls working as interns at fashion magazine “Elle“. The program began airing in early October. During their absence from the music scene, they appeared in many commercials for MapleStory and Mabinogi. It was then announced that the group’s first mini-album, Gee, would be released in January 2009. A teaser video was released in January 2009 and the first single “Gee” released soon after. Interest in the song rose after the digital release, topping Cyworld’s hourly music chart on the release day. The song also went #1 on all major digital music charts within two days.

The group began its album promotion on January 2009 on MBC Show! Music Core. They sang their new single, “Gee”, and “Him Nae/Way To Go“, another track from the Gee mini-album. This song is a remake of the song “Haptic Motion” that was used in cellphone advertisements (Samsung Anycall) and is a mix of bubblegum pop and punk rock. Meanwhile, questions were raised when the group did not appear on KBS’s Music Bank with “Gee”, even after winning #1 on the music chart show.

“Gee” is the record holder for the longest-running #1 on music portal M.net (for 8 weeks), surpassing the previous record of 6 weeks set by the Wonder Girls‘ “Nobody”. They also broke the record on KBS’s music show Music Bank by being #1 for 9 consecutive weeks, previously set by Jewelry’s “One More Time, which had 7 wins. They won the award for best-selling song for the first half 2009 for “Gee“. Promotions for the song ended at the end of March.

After a short break, SM Entertainment announced that the girls would be back with a new single and showing a “Marine Girl” concept; the song, titled “Sowoneul Malhaebwa (Genie)” (Korean: “소원을 말해봐”, literally “Tell Me Your Wish”), the mini album was released digitally on June 22, 2009. The mini-album includes a duet between Jessica and Shinee member Onew called “One Year Later”.

On May 3, 2009. Girls Generation was starred in their new reality show “SNSD Horror Movie Factory“, with the premier episode receiving a viewership rating of 3.3%. The show was then cancelled after 6 episodes due to low ratings.

Since June 23, 2009, Girls’ Generation are starring Cable TV program called “SNSD’s Hello Baby” of KBS Joy, where they are taking care of a child and somewhat experience how motherhood is like. In that show, they take care of a boy name “Cho Kyungsan” (Korean: “조경산”), and each week they (or fathers, male guests who come out time to time) select “The Best Mom” and “the Worst Mom” among the members according to their work for the day. Despite the late-night time slot, the show received fairly high ratings and had been extended for several episodes. The show ended on November 17, 2009.

On June 26, 2009, Girls’ Generation’s comeback performance was recorded on KBS’s Music Bank. The group then had their return performances on MBC’s Music Core and SBS’s Inkigayo on June 27 and 28, 2009. Girls’ Generation’s 2nd mini-album Genie was released on June 29, 2009.

Their first win for their single “Tell Me Your wish (Genie)” was obtained at the July 10, 2009 episode of KBS Music Bank. Their second award was claimed at the July 12, 2009 episode of SBS Inkigayo. The group finished promotions for “Tell Me Your Wish (Genie)” in August 2009.

On October 7, Girls’ Generation, along with label-mate f(x) released a digital single named “Chocolate Love” for the 4th edition of the Blacklabel series LG CYON phone, “Chocolate”. Girls’ Generation sang the “Retro Pop Ver.” of the song while f(x) sang the “Electronic Pop Ver.”

In July, selected members, alongside selected Super Junior members, released the song “S.E.O.U.L. Song“. The music video was released as part of South Korea’s tourism initiative.

The group also announced its first solo tour, with two Korean dates in December and other Asian locations to follow. The Korean dates sold out in 3 minutes. The concert is titled “Into the New World” after the name of their debut single.

hope i can survive this!!!

i now realize that i have so much to do in so little time. i really have to get started on everything. however, i can't do that now because i'm here in front of the computer again.:-) promise, i'll get started once i'm finished.

anyways...i wanna include a picture on this post, but apparently, firefox wouldn't allow me to do so.:-( next time perhaps.

oh. by the way, super junior is coming here in the Philippines as part of their asian concert tour entitled Super Show2. don't know whether to be excited or not...:-) haha. i wanna see them perform but i don't wan to spend so much money just to see a concert. well, probably i would, if it's a David Archuleta concert. haha.X_x. my housemates are going to the concert and they're sitting on the VIP seats! :-) wish i could to...:-(

anyways, i wonder when SNSD will come to the Philippines. i really wonder. if they will have a concert here, i'll most probably watch that:-).

[blogging is really stress-relieving:-) it's really an escape from the loud world:-) maybe that's really the magic of internet.]

i need to mention this: i'm beginning to get addicted to tumblr.com!!!!! it's connected to my facebook account, my blogger account, and my twitter account. i'm loving posting and rebloging and scanning and collecting pictures!!!!! and i'm thanking my housemate for introducing me to tumblr. i'm quite enjoying trying something new.:-)

[that reminds me...i wonder what's happening to my friendster account?:-)]

oh well...bye guys! 'til then!:-)

he-who's-torn

we're planning to do something exciting this weekend...i just don't know where to go to; manila on sunday or tagaytay on saturday...(sigh) it's quite confusing [when you're me].

:-)

so there. a lot of [dreadful] things are happening. mainly caused by insignificant creatures who are dwelling in their world full of insecurities...i really don't understand why ever why these people were let to lurk the corners of the earth! and you call yourselves "humans." i'm feeling stressed just thinking about the lies and rumors they made and are making making just to make themselves feel better, to get what they want, and to achieve their selfish, ambitious goals.

what's up with those worthless excuses? were we not good enough for you? weren't we friends?

i mean, what have we done wrong to [you to] deserve such accusations and treatments? but i shouldn't think about them anymore, should i? i'm just hurting myself even more just thinking about them...(sigh) but if you're in my situation, you'd also probably be bothered...

last post for the night...

PHYSICS FAIR tomorrow...[excited!]

i'm still deciding whether to go to manila or tagaytay.

probably manila on Sunday, an opportunity for me to visit my recently deceased uncle. by the way, i wanna thank those people who extended their condolences to me and my family. I also extend mine to my uncle's family. [thanks for everything:-)]

got some studying to do...so...

see yah!:-)

Kpop me:-)

so i decided to post another blog just to relieve me from the things that are making me stressed out. (sigh). i'm tired. i mean really tired. physically and emotionally pumped out! haha.X_x.

looking back just a month ago, before i went back here in uplb, i told myself that i'd improve my study habits and focus more on the subjects that i feel i need to be exerting a bit more effort on. but now, hah! (whoala!) i can't quite fulfill the goal i previously set.:-( sad, really...

earlier this morning, i took my 2nd exam on my food microbiology 180 course. and man! it's almost as hard as the first one. i don't know why i find the exam hard. i reviewed the whole coverage the whole weekend (well most of it:-)), but still, the questions are quite confusing. we're supposed to memorize the characteristics of the microorganisms related to food and be able to identify them during the exam, however, they're just so confusing. (sigh) i just hope i'd pass. help me get through this semester!!!! please!!! i must be optimist! haha...:-) i know i can.

anyways...just recently, i'm beginning to be, (let's see, how shall i put this...?) "a fan???" of super junior. i've been introduced to super junior 2 semesters ago, i think. at first, i'm not taking any interest in them, not even their music. then as the days went on, i began thinking that their music and the songs they sing are really cool. haha.:-) i mean really.;-)

i'm beginning to "LIKE" suju and kpop now, and i'm blaming my three "kpop-and-suju-addicted-housemates" and my BOF-addiction for that! haha. just kidding. you know, somehow, sometimes, when i wanna relax i just listen to kpop; suju, snsd (girls' generation), and others, and i immediately feel alright. haha.:-) it's the new kind sound that's taking asia by storm!!!! haha.:-) lol...anywho, speaking of super junior, my favorite members would be ryeowook and siwon. they're cool! lol. while i really love soo young of snsd!! haha. she's totally hot!:-) oh, i also like yuna, also from the same group. i posted pictures of them here:







































sooyoung:-)






















yoona:-)

i would also like to mention that i love the gail and yi jeong's love team on BOF! haha. go korea! haha. lol. too bad their relationship had no definite closure on the story.:-( but still, i love their team-up!!!!

[by the way, i'm listening to kpop as i'm typing this:-)] see yah!

my first blog for this year!

I seem to have lost my post last time. can't find it.

oh well, i'll just have to post another one...

this is my first post for this year 2010!!!! yeah!:-)
i haven't been visible on the internet world since two weeks now. [or so i think i am:-)]...

but before i say anything, i wanna include here the christmas gift i wanted to have but didn't have for christmas...and it's:

david archuleta's christmas album! haha.:-)
anyway, christmas is already over unless some of you might wanna give me a super-late-christmas-present?:-)
just kidding.

anyways, it's been one week since the semester resumed after the christmas break. first week of university life for 2010 yet i'm already tired of all the things i have to do and accomplish.:-( quite sad really. exam week's coming and i'm afraid i'm not ready to take my exams yet...and then there're papers to work on, laboratory exercises to accomplish, org obligations to fulfill...sigh!

hmmm......

right now, i'm doing research on Salmonella. it's actually the report assigned to me in food microbiology. hope we [me and my partner, that is] do great! and i am also praying to get a good grade on my physics exam!( to do that, i'll have to study hard and logout on the net! haha.):-)

bye! have a lot of studying to do!:-)
