"Peace, love, empathy"

I've been a fan of Nirvana ever since I've heard my mum listen to it on walkman and cd player, maybe casette too and other retro music devices.

I wasn't even born when Kurt died. I'm not familiar with the other members' names. I don't know all their albums and EPs. I just felt that there was this eager link between me and their music. 

I believe that calling myself a fan or supporter should be a "know-it-all" system. That's what I call stupidity and stereotyping. It's not a must to know everything, perhaps to know yourself. Liking and loving something or someone must never be societal basis.

Welcome to the black parade

What happened? After a long hiatus, they have released a few MVs last year, aye? Gerard Way was red-haired. Idk, but after I have seen their latest MVs, here comes hiatus, again. I have not heard a bit of them after those, expect from their MVs and songs on charts.

I first heard them during my fifth grade, like it was 2006 or 07. I can't really remember and I don't wanna count the years back. Welcome to the Black Parade; it started the 'EMO' trend in school, and seriously I was one of those who were obsessed on drawing bold black lines surrounding my eyes, black accessories, black outfits. BLACK or DARK.

I did not own a disc player to listen to music/albums. Despite of my parents having one, which was used for the car. Our past car only plays tapes that's why.

Since mp3 players were also one of the most prestigious techies that time, I asked for it on my birthday. Seriously, I started being geeky that time. I love to explore the world of internet and computers. I knew how to do htmls, edit css, etc. I have been downloading mp3s illegally and put everything on my player. I have known a lot of bands, too, and become more interested in the genre. MCR was one of my favorites.

My favorite songs from My Chemical Romance;
Cemetery Drive, The Ghost Of You, Teenagers, It's Not A Fashion Statement, It's A Death Wish, Famous Last Words, I Don't Love You, and of course, Welcome to the Black Parade.

I can say that these songs helped me with puberty and my early teenage years. Basically, MCR did. They were inspiration. They seem to make songs with practical meanings. Welcome to the Black Parade made me cry. Teenagers. Just wow!

I am thankful that in my existence, I have known such band. Just when I heard the news that they officially announced their band separation, I felt down. Another legendary band was disbanded. I was nearly crying, the fact that I did with their MVs. Though, I am just believing that it might be the best for them, and everyone wants the best for them.

So, I guess this is farewell for My Chemical Romance. But never with their shared music and their name. I would never forget the great music they have shared to everyone.

K-Pop Convention 4

It has been long hiatus for this blog. I was not really busy, focusing in school, but it really took a lot of my time. I had a lot of time wasted in school, though. Yeah, until now might still be our break for Christmas and New Year, but the worst one ever. I believe we only have less than two weeks since our last day 'til January 3rd. Sick, right? Well, perhaps I had the best Christmas celebration with my family, though I worry much about my paper works to be done before the start of classes. Hayst.

Yesterday, I went to K-Pop Con 4 without any plans in stock. It was just an urgent hangout with my old friends. I really believe that sometimes planning would not bring what is desired to happen. Actually, I just left home without even worrying of what to buy and the money in my wallet. So it happens that I still have a little money to eat and buy some cheap stuff and for transportation.

ALIVE TOUR MANILA'S RANT

"WOW, FANTASTIC BABY~" | "NIGA SARANGHANEUN NANEUN SORRY I'M A BAD BOY~"

October 24, 2012. 

Who can tell that I had an awesome night despite of the pissed off moments outside the arena? Whoa, I did not really expect that I will enjoy the rest of my night. It was surreal! I know, but duh, I'm not a die-hard fan of BigBang. Gone partying all throughout the concert. Hell yeah!

WHAT IS LOVE

For me, love isn't about two lovers. 
It's more about love for and from my own loved ones, love for myself, and love for my own desire. That is what I think love is all about. In fact, I'm always in love. In love with a lot of human beings, a lot of material possessions, and basically Korean Pop or simply K-Pop. I'm not sinfully committed with Korean boys, Korean merchandises (albums, posters, collectibles, etc), and everything Korean. I'm just plainly in love. I might sometimes disturb a lot of people especially with my excited mixed feelings whenever I see something that I love. However, be thankful because I haven't killed anyone yet (loljk). 

My endless desires in life kept me motivated with my practical life which is studying. I am also able to continue saving my money for these endless wants and sometimes use it for something else which my parents think is better than fangirling (not really). See, it changed me a lot. 

K-Pop has been one of my major strengths after the Lord and my family. I would rather be a fangirl forever, instead of doing drugs and stuffs illegal (all gross) which I hate to acknowledge on TV the most together with the government issues that doesn't even help us citizens. 

Goodnight. Next week will be that start of my first year in college. I'm not excited, I hope everything go well.


PS. I really love this song. EXO-K's What Is Love

#1MonthsaryBTOB

Yesterday, April 24, 2012 marks the first monthsary of BTOB (Born to Beat) after debut (March 24, 2012). As everyone doesn't know, they are the newest group from Cube Entertainment where 4Minute, BEAST, G.Na, and APink reside. Yay~ Welcome to the family. My family and Cube Family.

I'm gonna give you a short profile about BTOB. So, BToB stands for Born to Beat which is a 7-membered boy group, as I said from Cube Entertainment. Naming the members, Seo Eunkwang (Vocal, Leader), Lee Minhyuk (Vocal, Rap, Visual), Lee Changsub (Vocal, Aegyo), Lim Hyunsik (Vocal, Body Builder), Shin Donggeun/Peniel Shin (Rap, English), Jung Ilhoon (Rap), and Yook Sungjae (Vocal, Rap, Visual). Their debut album is self-entitled 'Born to Beat' which contains 4 tracks; Intro, Insane (Current promotional song), Imagine, and Monday to Sunday (Acoustic one which I think the one's who played the guitar was Peniel and/or Hyunsik).

I've been so totally addicted with this rookie group, as well as with B.A.P (Debuted on January 28, 2012)   and NU'EST (Debuted on March 15, 2012). They were all awesome and talented. They have that swag that I have been looking for a STAN. I even forget about any other groups which I am so obsessed before which I so-called PAST RELATIONSHIPS (lolwhut). Apparently, I'm in love with Lee Minhyuk (BTOB) or my squirrel yeobo-oppa! He's just so cute and so adorkable like that. I really love him and BaekRenRon OTP (NU'EST), and Jung Daehyun (B.A.P). Well, I love them all but my love for those mentioned is deeper.

-----------------
BaekRen OTP forever. Baekho/Minhyuk will kiss me like that too.

Annyeonghasaeyo~

This is just a fast update of what is currently happening with my life now. Actually, I've started my fandom again right after I received my diploma from high school. It's been a while since summer had started and I don't regret anything about it. I knew some new rookie groups (B.A.P, NU'EST, and BTOB) which I am in-love-at-first-sight. With B.A.P, I knew them since their debut in late January I think, while NU'EST and BTOB, just this vacation. Before March ended, I received some cash gift from my godmother and some valuables from Korea. This April, I received a lot. I received clothes from Giordano and Korea, money, hangouts, and NU'EST's FACE album (which I actually asked to be bought fresh from Korea).

Also, I kept myself busy mainly by reblogging, tweeting, Youtube, me2day, and TV programs (KPOP-related of course). Apparently, I'm still waiting for BTOB's Peniel to tweet something on their Twitter probably after they were done with radio guesting. 

Anyways, here's my NU'EST Album

Friday the 13th means ZE:A

Started typing 1:43AM. 14th of January, 2012...

January 13th, 2012. The day was unexpected. I'm not really sure of what can possibly happen this day. If I could attend the mall tour/fan-signing event/meet and greet or just attend school, as a usual Friday. Well, I'm having dilemmas from the past days of skipping classes or attend the event but I'd came up of I think, which satisfied me.

The morning I am excited of; I was expecting to be at least be at the VIP section of the event since it's Friday and maybe most fans are in schools/colleges/universities. EXPECTATIONS turned NOTHING. Do you know the feeling of fans lining up in columns/rows at a late morning? Isn't it disappointing? HAHA, probably it is though. Obviously, we can't do anything but wait-in-line even though our stomachs grumble in horror. After we bought our album copies and stub number (mine was 286), we had to eat of course. I withdrawn money and eat, then stumble towards Forever21 just to peek on each corner of the store. I didn't buy anything but supposedly, we just can't find what my friend told me. KITTEHHS. We then walked more around SM Makati and Glorietta and came back to the event center. We'd waited for long on a spot where we think ZE:A could recognize us or rather, where we can see them closely. It all happened. Though we're on a side view while they were performing and being interviewed, it's okay. Typically, there were non-fans watching who will push you till you can't breathe because of the barrier in front of you. They kept pushing, I kept pushing backwards. Hmm..., I have the right to breathe.

Kthen, the meet and greet/fan-signing moment. I won't prolong this post any longer, it's already late. I just had the chance to walk on stage twice for having a two-stubbed album. The 2nd time I went on stage, I felt Dongjun, Hyungshik, and Taeheon shocked after seeing me for the second time and even maybe the other members. But I can't really forget the *shocked face*of Shikkie! HAHA, adorable.

Simple Plan

"You say good morning, when it's midnight."

Ohemgee. This is totally inside my mind. I know you're familiar with that quoted line from a song, aren't you? Hello! It's so popular in the Philippines and possibly, worldwide.

So, what about it? Why did you quoted that line? What's the purpose of it? I don't even care about this post. -- Better get lost then! Seriously, it's not a big deal. The lyrics doesn't have any significance for me. I just can't get it out of my mind and partly the only line I know from the song.

PS. Hahaha, an awkward experience while singing the song in school is also good enough to reminisce.
