Oki, much-delayed post.. Wanted to write something on 31 Dec.. to say goodbye to 2011 but i was too held up by school work so i ended up not writing a single word..
Then now it's soon to be – Chinese New Year!!!

Wishing everybody a Happy Chinese New Year as well as Happy Holidays!
Have fun eating pineapple tarts and collecting (or giving out???) Hongbaos..
Receive and give blessings to all your loved ones for the new year~ ^^



Cause of celebration! Yahoo!!! Drink Coke and be as happy as 2PM! ahahaha.. i love 2PM's Coca Cola new ads where they installed a super high vending machine in their company..

To get their drinks 2PM needs to think of strategies to hoist each other up to press on the Dispense button
They did stunts, flips, cheerleading style lifting, used some of their dance choreo.. Just having fun~



On a goodbye note, let's have a cute pic of B1A4 hiding behind pink sofa– their bandname comes from bloodtype of members: 1 'odd one out' is bloodtype B while all the rest is bloodtype A
I can't really name every single member yet but i can remember their names~^^

Left: CNU - long hair + specs super easy to recognise, ?, Gongchan, ?, Baro
The 2 ?s are Jinyoung & Sandeul.. i can't tell who is who.. Hairstyles & color too similar liao..

2012 will be a great year!

11/11/11 is a special date, it's looks so awesome with it's long series of 1s..
6 in a row! It's a good day for weddings, births & d_____ (just joking)

11/11 is also Pepero Day in S Korea, cos the date represents 5 sticks of Pepero

11/11 is also Poland's Independence Day, a Polish FT Island fan told me this =D

11/11 is also 2PM's Hands Up tour concert in Indonesia, they are comin' Singapore on 19 Nov!! But i no $ buy tickets.... So.... Aye.. Don't talk about it..

11/11 is also FT Island's drummer Minhwan's birthday! Was busy trending MinariDay111111 on Twitter at 12 KST, it just trended in Indo & Japan.. Didn't trend in Singapore or worldwide =x



i posted this photo of Minhwan cos i like the camera, idk what brand/model/how to use it.. it just looks cool.. Woots..
Hope Minari's celebrating his birthday today with Chicken (this dude love chicken lots) & Pepero.. Hehehe..


People say Minhwan resembles Rain (he sure does, as with many other K celebs like Wooyoung, Junho fr 2PM.. They just got that K look with their smiley small, yet attractive eyes..)
Watched a fancam of him dancing to Rainism during one of FT Island's concerts, looking very cool for the most part, but returned back to his aegyo self when he removed his shades -- can tell he spent lots of effort in learning the dance moves, since he hardly ever dances..
He's a drummer afterall~^^

Minari used to look this cute when FTI debut in 2007, at age 15 he held the 'record' for being the youngest Kpop star at that time (for almost a year, till SHINee's Taemin came along)
Now, there's no such record i guess, since talent agencies are rushing to debut young artistes these days..

Shall end this special post to commemorate special day with one of my fav photos that Minhwan tweeted, his silhouette against the sunset.. So peaceful & beautiful picture~
May this day be a good day for everyone!

That could be my one and only line in my new update..
But i know Blogger ain't Twitter.
SO...
I will write more in detail..
That's why blogs still exists today~
THAT'S WHY MY BLOG IS STILL UP AND RUNNING... It's been 6 years!!!
I can't even remember when i started this blog.. It was for the fun of it and i was just writing some random rubbish lol..
I just started blogging randomly, just like how i started my Twitter, Formspring, Tumblr recently~
I haven't got down to explore Tumblr, it's a new way of sharing info & pics..
In Tumblr world, things travel around the world rapidly. Given the POWER of 1 button "REBLOG"
Similar to Twitter's "RETWEET" button~
However I never went through the archived posts in detail, i keep telling myself one day i should.. Even though i'll grimace at some long-winded randomities i wrote in the past.. Nevertheless, looking back at my past self will be interesting. It's like Doraemon's 时光穿梭机，回到当年看到另一个自己
Honestly speaking, if i didn't record my thoughts, outings/gatherings & random crap, they would be forgotten..

I don't just have STM i also have LTM.. Both short term & long term memory's poor~~
Woohoooo..
SO blogging suits people like me, it's my diary..
No secrets to hide, never locked a single post in my blog before..
光明正大～ 无所畏惧秘密大公开~ 呵呵！

I haven't been reading blogs in a long while.. Glad that some of my friends still drop by my blog.. Says a BIG HELLO to yall!!!

-----

Been working for the past 2 weeks, gonna spend the last week of holidays working too.. Actually i haven't worked for more than a year.. Glad to find job during this short hol..
Working 6 days a week is seriously No Life huh, for the $.. I'll continue~~

MY BLOGGING PROJECT (started 6 years ago)
WILL BE CONTINUED...

The idea of 'hiding' Shindong at the back in between Donghae & Siwon is good~
Can deflect the attention away from his plump figure, he's been trying to lose weight.... hmm since the SuJu debut? Hehe.. He even admitted that his photos for Mr Simple 1st version has been photoshopped (people were commenting how gd he looked so he just had to say it, kudos to u, honest dude!)

Over the past weekend, the most "in" thing in Kpop world is Super Junior's comeback..
Vol 5 album - Mr Simple

Their concept photos unveiled showed the bold use of clashing, psychedelic colors..
Almost kenna blinded by the supa dupa bright colors on my screen..

Last week (fr Twitter), i see many international fans forgoing sleep so they can watch SuJu's comeback press conference.. 4am also don't want to sleep = power of ELFs (SuJu fans name)
Some people stay up to watch soccer, some people stay up to watch press conference..
Different people have different idols xD

Shall start with my bias: Heechul!
He's back to long hair, i don't quite like the curls but ayyyy nvm..
He's so free spirited & versatile, he may just decide to go change his hairstyle any one day, during Vol 3 - Sorry Sorry days, he loved short hair so much, he kept cutting & trimming his hair till it's super short.. they call it 栗子头


Next up was the horrifying styling of Super Junior's leader Lee Teuk..
Like omg what did they do to him???
That fake fringe with blond highlights is too much.. Makes him look like some fail fashion model..

Siwon's looking pretty scary too -2nd left from bottom.. Look below (can open in new tab & view), the neon green one.. Neon green soccer socks & boxers.. (@.@)

Here's all the 10 covers of the album.. OMG SM Ent created 10 different covers for the same album, some rich ELFs will definitely go and buy all 10 lor.. hehehe..

Then my surprise came!
Eunhyuk rocking that blond hair style~
I can't believe Eunhyuk suits blond hair.. But he looks really cool & awesome..

-----------------------------------

That's all for now, I was never an ELF.. Just got to admit they've got really catchy songs..
Sorry Sorry's super popular even your mom & dad knows..
Bonamana is like some Bollywood song..
Mr Simple's like Bonamana 2.0, after listening to it twice, the chorus is stuck in my head like a chewing gum so sticky..

Sales of album with the previous bunny cover will be halted..
Aww, i should've bought that before they halted sales, now this is like the "Limited Edition" that's "banned" and never will be on sale again.. boohoo..


Be it bunny or heart, love them both!!

----

Came back from singing with Ida at Kbox Kallang Leisurepark, it was fun singing some old C-pop songs which i was familiar with since pri & sec sch & juggling a few new C-pop songs
Was planning to sleep early.. But but..

I saw some bad news... Hey! Say! JUMP is now down to 9 members cos 1 member's being suspended indefinitely (meaning may never be able to return)
OMG! Ryutaro Morimoto's the youngest member of HSJ, 16 years old.

Photos of him smoking was published in magazine 2 days ago & his agency decided to suspend all his entertainment activities.. Scenes of him from recent tv recordings were cut & edited by replacing with other members' footage before airing.. Serious suspension.. Omo...

I know Johnny agency value their reputation of their idols & all, so it's really unlikely that Ryu will get to return to him band.. He isn't one of Johnny's favorite anyway.. The favoritism in their company's quite obvious in many other JE boybands too.. 1 or 2 favorite "always in the limelight" members and the rest of the group are just there (for the sake of being there)

Sad case..


This issue reminds me of what happened to Uchi & another guy many years ago (both got kicked out of their boyband NEWS cos they were caught drinking in public -while underaged)
Uchi was downgraded to Johnny Juniors... (didn't debut, still stuck in the junior aka trainee ranks)
I think the other guy gave up on his idol dream & left Johnny Entertainment.. No point staying on ehh..  What are the chances of being selected to be included in a new boyband? Moreover their "old age" would match the young ones..


Hamster Prince Ryutaro, u will be missed..

Sailing to Happy Island

Been on Happy Island fan forum for the whole day, from late morning to night time..
Happy Island is one of FT Island's fan forum..
But to be exact, they can be called FNC Heaven, since they also include sections for CN Blue. Oh Wonbin & newbie Juniel..
All artistes from FNC Entertainment

Stumbled upon this drama from 2007 being mentioned in the forum
Unstoppable Marriage
I didnt even know Bassist Jae jin acted before!!
Somemore it's with 2 SNSD girls (before they debut)
Sooyoung & Yuri from SNSD acted as bimbos chasing after the same guy (Jae jin)
It's funnily cheesy & i watched cuts from the drama uploaded & subbed by SNSD fans~



It's a super long korean family drama (more than 100 episodes) but they don't appear in that many ep, and sometimes it's just less than 1 min per episode lol..
So 1st time i watch drama so speedily, can zoom from ep 1 to 101 within a day~ ^_^

The storyline moves pretty slowly (only applies to Jaejin, Sooyoung & Yuri's parts cos that's all i watched) Right from episode 1, they fighting for same guy... till episode 101, they're still trying 101 methods to chase their favourite guy (but to no avail)..

SNSD members acting as zombies hopping around! LMAO..
Notice Yuri's weird running manner... her legs kick sideways instead of kicking backwards... Another scene fr some other episode showed her running, looks even weirder when filmed from the back..



Another funny scene, Sooyoung & Yuri stalking Jaejin on the rooftop in school.. Scary Stalker Girls.. Reminds me of crazy fangirls following idols around xD



~~~~

31 May
Today I don't have to go sch cos my grp completed our assignment yesterday~^^
Spent my day watching Detective Galileo X Movie, after finish watching the last 2 episodes ytd.. This Jap drama is currently airing on Ch U, but i dl it last year, watching fr hard disk is definitely faster than watching from TV..
Also watched Korean variety show 'Idol Maid'
Where 2 female celebrities are selected to go to an idol boyband's dorm to be maids..
Ahhh walao BEAST's dorm really's in a terrible condition..

6 young guys living together, hardly cleaning up.. Clothes strewn all over, cans of half-drank drinks scattered around the house, bedsheets & blankets hardly ever washed, kitchen's the worst warzone with the unwashed dishes, cups stacked high in the sink.... The maid even found a soaked fried chicken dumped among the unwashed plates.. Eeeks! Expired food found in their refrigerator too.. OMG..
Quoting the pretty maid: "Seems like it's (the situation) is beyond serious"

See from 2:58 onwards



As usual, no luxurious living space for this 'glamorous' idols, i've seen variety shows that films idol groups' dorms.. FT Island, 4 Minute.... Most of them live in rather cramped apartments.. Some idols share beds, sleep in the living room, some even sleep on the floor..
Make me feel so blessed to have my own room & own bed..

There's 9 episodes in all, don't think i'll ever finish watching them, so i post the links to it here.. just in case i decided to watch more on one fine day~
http://engsub.tumblr.com/idolmaid
Most likely i'll be distracted by other movie, variety shows..

Just a short while after releasing their full-length Japanese album "Five treasure Island"
Five Treasure Island = FT Island  (yes thats how their name came about)
Was still comtemplating whether to buy it and there the Korean mini album is out.. Seriously busy Five treasures.. Promoting in Japan & Korea within short timeframe..





Infinite has been around for a while, but i hadn't paid attention to them previously..
Too many boybands & girl groups out there these days it's hard to stand out..


UNLESS you've
-band members who look like some other famous guy  (like DGNA)
-gd-looking member who happen to be from another country  (like 2PM's 'thai prince' Nichkhun)
-a funny member who can carve a name for himself on variety shows  (like 2AM's Jo Kwon)
-a daringly zany member who can dance all the girl groups' dances on variety shows  (like ZE:A's Kwanghee)
-a member who's really good at dancing a different genre, eg modern contemporary dance & perform them occasionally at dance battles  (like MBLAQ's Lee Joon)
-members who have famous celebrity daddy  (like F.Cuz's Lee U)
-some suggestive dance moves that gets banned on music programs  (like rookie girl grp Rania)

Seems that Infinite have none of the above, so they've to rely on strong title tracks..
They succeeded with prev mini album "Before the Dawn" then this "Inspirit" I like how they combine Infinite + Spirit = Inspirit.. Indeed Inspiring~





Pretty boys who look like girls are already a common sight in the idol world
TIME FOR CHANGE.. gd-looking girls who look like pretty boys..
Yay~


That's him with the "forever-16" guy Teppei Koike..
Yeah i like both of them, though they're different types of Jap guys... Hehehehe..
Oh and Yu shirota & my fav Jaejoong are gd buddies too!
No idea how they got to know each other but i know Jae's good at making friends everywhere..
So many Japanese friends he have got.. even JE idols..



Yeah that spells the end of music update..
Mostly used album covers to illustrate, except for last 2 cos i don't have any pic of album covers of their releases & am too lazy to search.. Just put in random pic.. Nice can already ah..

3 Cheers..

The module (for the past month) was about digital collage, a little bit of cut & paste effect is fine, as long as the separate images look well-blend together, forming a single image.. And so i thought, a face would be easy, just input diff facial expressions..
There's 9 separate images used in this collage.. Can u tell?
Teacher said use at most 3 or 4 images if not there's too much going on & lose focus..
I've no idea why i was so hardworking & challenged myself by putting together 9 images & blending them into 1~

I deliberately chose pictures from the same 'Shine a light' concert/dvd photoshoot so the pictures look consistent.. Since G-Dragon is a well-known fashionista & is so 百变 with diff styling, dressing, expressions he'll exude diff aura.. Mysterious. Cool. Cute. Crazy. Funky. Quirky. Outright outrageous style. He's those few people who can pull off seriously weird & awkward styles.. Born Versatile..


In case you couldn't tell, this was last min work..
I was losing inspiration in doing pixel collage, largely due to the uninspiring teacher who didn't teach (what an irony!)
His "style" of teaching is emailing us several links to online photoshop tutorials.. Well, we can easily search for them if we wanted to..
The very reason why we're enrolled in school is to learn first-hand from the "experienced experts"
But it seems that many polytechnic lecturers are established/brilliant designers in their own right, but fail as design teachers.. Shouldn't poly lecturers attend courses by MOE/NIE so they can learn effective teaching methods?

This is the nth time i've met poly teachers who can't teach.. Like omg.. In design sch block system, all modules are taught in 4 weeks, and what are we, students supposed to learn from teachers who fail at teaching within a space of 4 weeks?

In the end, it's up to ourselves..
Why are we paying school fees then?


Enjoy school's air con?
