A mistake is only a mistake if you make it twice.

Bleh...

Sleepy....

Tired....

Bleh, it's midnight and I'm reading *beep* journals....

But at least, earlier just now I went for Ps Kong's service...it was great! Great, funny, sometimes right in your face, but the message never fails to be heartmoving and inspiring. I think I laughed my way through the service, but I still left the hall with his words ringing in my head.

So I guess this was a case of humour successfully retaining memory. But seriously, there's a lot of talk about relationships nowadays. And what with just having attended my godbrother's wedding the other day, I don't really wanna talk about the relatives la...

Haih...to all the many questions asked...here's what I have to say. It's not as easy as whether I want to or not, but if I don't know what I want, then what do you want me to do? It's not really in my hands!

><

Sleeeeeeppppyyyyy....

Tiireeeeeeeeedddddd....

Dinner~~

I'm hunggggggrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyy....and here's dinner~~

ふりかけチャーハンで~す!

Haha, it's the furikake that I got from sensei~~

Since I only have white rice and eggs...decided to make fried rice topped with the furikake. It looks nice. So without further ado...itadakima~~su!

Serial killer dreams??

Gah...too much brain activity lately. I keep having serial killer dreams lately. Gosh, one of them even features a 7-8 year old kid as an organised serial killer who committed suicide in the end. What the...I blame all the studying, and I'm not even taking PSY308. -_-;;;

On the contrary, I've been having some pretty pleasant dreams too, normally in succession with those serial killer dreams (shows you what sort of rubbish I put in my brain). Ah well, I guess it's interesting to note.

LOLness

OH MEH HOLY COW!!!

This is evidence that I've been obsessing over 2PM and Jaebum too much lately:

I dreamt about meeting Jaebum in person!!! >< *dies from hyperventilating* But I think I've been reading too many fan accounts, coz the dream me went and asked for theirs autographs lol! Now I wished I could have lucid dreams, but hey, at least I got to see Jay. XD

Yes, looks like I'm going nuts.

2PM - Hottest Time of the Day

Haha, in my last post I talked a little about a new Korean group. I know, I know...I just had a new band to craze over not so long ago. I haven't forgotten SID...they had released a new single, 『嘘』 (Lies), but since they're having their Spring Tour now, there isn't much news about them so far...



People, call me fickle if you will, but check out this group!

This is 2PM, and the pic from their debut single cover "Hottest Time of the Day". Guess I'll talk about the members before I go into their music. From the left of the pic, Junsu (yeah, exact same spelling as DBSK's Junsu) who's touted as the member with the greatest vocal ability, Chansung, the youngest member (reminds me of Changminnie with his height and huge appetite, lol), Wooyoung, joker of the group with great dancing ability. Center is my personal fav, leader Jaebum (who's actually born and raised in the US), one of the most talented dancers in this group with lotsa b-boy experience. Next up, Thai prince Nickhun (American-Thai-Chinese), the 'face' of 2PM, as he introduces the existence of 2PM through the variety shows he's involved in, Taecyeon, standing at 185cm, hails from Boston, and of course, Junho, who really resembles Rain, but don't brush him off just coz he looks like him. His dancing ability is superb!

There are 6 tracks in their single, with their title song being "10점 만점에 10점" (10 points out of 10). Those who like songs with great rhythm and strong beats, something you can dance to, this song ain't shabby. Personally, when I first heard it, it wasn't quite my taste, but it's really catchy after a while. In fact, the best way to listen to this is to check out the MV or the lives. The dancing is too great to be missed. The single comes with an old school version and an instrumental version of this song.

The next song is a sweet ballad with an underlying tone of hip hop in it, and this is the song where I can really hear the vocal quality of the members. Since my first impression was "They sure can dance, but I can't hear nuts from the singing", I was really surprised by how stable their vocals were in "Only You". The lives were pretty good too. The next song, "Angel" is my favourite by far. With strong hip hop beats, it's the kind of song that makes you get onto your feet and dance, whether you know how to or not.

LOL, it looks as though I just wrote a promo piece on their single or something. But hey, a cool group is a cool group, and they look like they'll go far. Actually, 2PM has a brother band called 2AM, together, they're called OneDay. But unlike 2PM, who specialises in upbeat dance songs, 2AM is a ballad group. Maybe I'll talk about them in the next post. Till then, ciaoz!

Not feeling well...

Feeling really bleh lately...body doesn't seem to be keeping up with the amount of work I'm doing. My sleeping hours have been shifted to like...2, 3 a.m. even though I normally have class early the next day. My circadian rhythm is all screwed up right now. I'm surviving all the lost hours on pure will, stress and lots and lots of sugar. No wonder my body is feeling out of shape.

T_T Wish I could just drop whatever I have and just sleep and chill out, but I've got way too much to do...and I've come this far. I just need to survive for another 3 weeks. >< Hang on there, girl! After that, you can take your rest!

By the way, thanks to KM for showing me an interesting video, I've been checking out a Korean group called 2PM lately. Personally, the music is...not quite my kind? Well, it'll be more accurate to say that I think there's definitely room for improvement in terms of singing. But I really love their dances! They're definitely a group with huge dancing talent, and there's a characteristic acrobatics touch to their choreography.

The other Korean groups (like DBSK or Shinee) I'm into typically dance well too, but if I were to pick whether I prefer their vocals or their moves...I'd say their vocals. But 2PM has a very strong element of dance. Every member has a unique style and all of them can groove really well. It's also the first non-SM group I've come to notice. Looking forward to their growth as a group!
