A place where I could rant, be myself, and hopefully teach(LOL I'll try) people through the mistakes I have made. Maybe there will be guest writers by my friends. We'll see. Muwahahaha.LOLOL
Hello everyone~ I started school on August 18th.
Actually I'm not that sad to go back to school. I get to see friends again, find things to apply my time/effort to, and yea...that's it. Of course I'm not excited about studying again! I am already disappointed in some of my classes but I'm moving on. I shouldn't stress too much on these things. So when are you guys starting?? How will you prepare? What will you do differently? Are you excited or sad? LOL My many questions. Anyways, have fun~ I wish you all luck~
READY...? Kpop Idol........IU!!!!

Hey my lovely girlies~ Recently I been using the 2 Step My Beauty Diary sheet masks. In my opinions, they are better than the regular My Beauty Diary Masks because it has a package of gel for you to apply after the mask session and better result.
The one i been using more often would be the Mountain Cherry Blossom. This mask provides extreme whitening and brightening effect. omg, it made my skin looked more smoooooth, firm, and white o: The masks are all from Taiwan, and I been using this brand for quite a while now. I really love This Mountain Cherry Blossom mask so much :3 The mask also comes with a little package of April Cherry Blossom Creamy Gel which you apply it on your face after the mask. You do not need to apply any other moisturizer or other stuff after the gel. In a box, it comes with 8 sheets unlike the regular masks that comes with 10 sheets because it is a 2-in-1 kind of thing. I would recommend this mask to those My Beauty Diary Mask lovers. If you never tried this brand, you should! It really makes a difference in my opinion :] -Lainie <3

Recently I am obsessed over this YouTuber by the name of DJ Masa. This person is truly awesome. With the love of kpop songs so much, I am automatically attracted by these kpop remixes. They hardly sound like remixes but rather a different song completely. I thing I like to do to test out my kpop skills is to try and guess everyone there. I get excited when I see SHINee or hear a line in a song that I know. You guys should really check out this YouTuber.
So. I'm the newbie, Abby, I'll be editing (mostly) contributing here and there, if that's alright.
I don't exactly know what I'll be writing about, but if I do end up posting, it'll probably be some KPOP symbolism/plot analysis, maybe culture and tradition here and there, probably philosophy. We'll see.
It's nice meeting you guys. Please take care of me. <3
I was drama searching once again through a drama website. I usually don't want any drama unless there is something interesting in the plot of I know an actor/actress. Reason why I was intrigued to watch was because of You're Beautiful. (Main character ends up with someone I did not like out of three possible) In this drama, the couple that I shipped for "You're Beautiful" are the leads.(Park Shin Hye and Jung Yonghwa) Expectation: OVER 9000!!! Realization after watching:
"Whaatt? Ew? Why did I do that to myself?" The plot looked really good and I thought they they were going to make a lot of song remixes. ...They only played like two/three songs that incorporated traditional and modern styles. I am not sure why but this drama interesting to me in the part. Maybe the ending just sucked panda butt. OKOK SPOILER ALERT: The two were involved in a HUGE fight but after 10 mins, they were back together again and the drama ends with them serenading to each other. Maybe I was expecting too much in this drama but you would feel the same if you were rooting for Go Mi Nam and Shin Woo.
I don't recommend it.
Score: ★☆☆☆☆

Today I randomly went into a little Asian medicine shop with my dad. Because they sell masks, I asked lady which one was good for acne. While we were in the topic, she recommended me to actually try egg whites as masks at home. okay, I know egg whites is good for the face, but I never know it's benefit. After I came back home I did a little research on it. (I was just soooooo curious)
I found out that egg whites can help: -tighten your skins -minimize your pores -oil blotting -clear whiteheads -give a healthy glow -diminish the looks of fine lines -remove dead skin cells -heal and nourish skin
It is AMAZING what egg whites can do
The order of steps to use egg white is: 1. cleanse your face 2. apply egg whites all over your face (recommend upward strokes) 3. leave is on for about 20 minute on the face 4. rinse it off 5.apply your favorite moisturizer and toner ^^
Hope it helps~

Infinite has made another comeback with "Destiny". The song and music video was released a week ago, and has reached over 1.5 million views (almost surpassing 2 million). For a change, they filmed the entire video in USA, Universal Studios. There were some controversies about their teaser video, but I'll delve into that later.
The music video has a lot of computer generated effects, and let me emphasize a lot. Although, I am a huge Inspirit, I do think they went overboard just a teensy bit. Teensy. Although I wouldn't blame Woollim. It's tough competition out there these days, and just having your pretty idol boy's won't work.
Other than the effects, everything was perfect! The filming angle, the choreography of the dance, their solo shots, their exceptional acting, etc. They used the filming area to it's limit and edited the video nicely.
Now, for the music. The intro was nice and soft; not too prominent as it takes away the focus of the song. Then, it leads to the leader, Sunggyu's beautiful strong voice. There was no out-of-place auto-tuning in the song (Infinite doesn't do that psh). In the chorus, the "huuuhuu" part was really captivating. I was strangely attached to that one part... It calms me...
Anyways, the ranging vocals from Sungjong's girly high notes to Hoya's deep and sexy rap fused perfectly within the song. The song in general is perfect, but the lyrics are .... not the best ones you would use for a hallyu star. It seems like Infinite's song writer is using Infinite to sing his feelings for a girl that left him. Similar to Infinite's previous song, The Chaser, the lyrics are about a girl who left them and they want her back (very cliche). It seems as if Infinite are becoming stalkers, begging the girl not to leave them. Who would leave seven perfectly handsome men?
This time around, the company was very considerate of our fan's pleads and allowed almost the same amount of screen time/singing lines to each member! That's right, the ignored member Sungyeol got more than a word/line! /fist pump
Back to the video teaser. There were controversies about Infinite being disrespectful about Asiana's airplane crash (you can google that up). In their teaser, there were scenes of broken airplane bits. Now, that is not possible at all because they finished filming wayyy before the plane crash occurred. Notice that the released music video is titled, Ver. B. Most likely, Ver. A contained scenes of the broken airplane and Woollim decided to respect the victims and their families, so they released a different version. (Super considerate!!)
Go check out Ver. B here:
