Warning: This post contains a lot of fangirling

As part of BEDA (Blog Every Day in April), I have decided to do this "30 days of Kpop Meme" but will condense the posts to 3 days a post, because I want those other days to post other Kpop related stuff for my April is KPOP Month! project. :)
So without futher ado:

---

Day 1: Your favorite kpop guy group
C.N. Blue


I really love them because they can actually play music and stuff, rather than just sing. (Not dissing other boy groups in anyway cuz I love other groups too!) I just like the fact that they can really play. I mean it sucks that they can't play live during music programs like Music Core, Music Bank, Inkigayo, or M Countdown because of time constrictions and sound problems etc, but I know that they really can play hehe.

Aside from their music being so good and catchy, the boys themselves are too cute! They're so dorky and lovable! I don't know how Minhyuk (right) manages to be so damn cute and sexy at the same time; Yo~ng is sooo charismatic on stage, that's the reason he's the leader; Jonghyun with his beautiful voice and face; and Jungshin chingoo~ the nation's friend!! I like him better with his messy ponytail hair rather than the suave girlish hair he sports lately, but he's still the nation's friend hehe. Their interactions together are so funny and cute hehe.

I'll admit if it wasn't for SNSD (Seohyun being on We Got Married with Yonghwa) I wouldn't have known about them, but I'm so glad I do! Just watching their small appearances on We Got Married was enough to make me love them hehe. Now they're getting suuuuuuper successful, what with doing so well on music shows despite being pretty new at first, their songs were so damn good!, and all of them getting acting deals in dramas and stuff, it just makes me so proud! :) Considering they all came from wealthy families and then struggled to get by in Japan really says that they were willing to give up their comfortable lifestyles for their music. They've come a long way in so short but they really deserve all their success!


Day 2: Your favorite kpop girl group
Lol is this even a question?
SNSD/Girls' Generation/소녀시대/So Nyuh Shi Dae ♥


No other words to describe Soshi than: beautiful, amazing, perfect, goddesses, flawless, etc.
Haters gonna hate~ (and trust me, they have A LOT of haters because of jealousy issues)
I really don't understand the hate though. These girls have gone through sooo much hatred wise, struggling their way to the top, but now that they're THE top girl group in the industry, they still have remained the same sweet, dorky, HUMBLE girls they have been from day one. They never forget who they are and that their fame can be taken away at any moment, so they appreciate at it while they have it and are so thankful for the support and love they do get, considering they have a lot of haters.

Day 3: Your ultimate kpop guy bias
G-DRAGON
GEE GEE GEE GEE BABY BABY, GD GD BABY BABY

Uuuuuuuuuuunnnnnnnnnnnnnfffffffff - The things this boy does to me, I can't even ♥

This guy is absolute perfection!!!!! He seriously just driiiiiiiiipppsss with charisma!!!! Every time I watch Big Bang videos or anything, I just can't NOT look at him, my eye goes directly to him.
Despite the fact that I've been into kpop for a year now, I only recently started listening to Big Bang, and this was around the time that their subunit GD&TOP were debuting, so I instantly fell in love with G-Dragon. As I learned more about him, I realized that he is Big Bang's producer and writes most/all of their songs! For some reason this just adds to his appeal lol, like he's in charge of his own music which I love! Plus the fact that he's CONSTANTLY changing his image is so awesome: srsly he is always changing his hairstyles! There was a lot of talk over his recent "black hair" that I honestly loved, but blonde!G-Dragon will always be my favorite ♥, I especially love the way his hair is now, though who knows how long it'll stay this way, Big Bang is due for another comeback in a few days XD. I love the fact that he's willing to take risks and has sooo much confidence in himself gahhhh it's just so sexy! :D He just demands the stage with his charisma and he can pull off so many different looks and styles of music (from his poppy "Heartbreaker" to his hip hop "Knock Out" and his adooooorably sexy self in the "Don't Go Home" music video my goddddddddddddd. Words cannot describe how Kwon Jiyong makes me feel~~~~Now here's an adorably cute video of him speaking English:

See?! How is is possible for him to look so incredibly cute yet sexy at the same time!! And in just a plain white v-neck or a white suit!! Gahhh he's just so perfect! Seriously, just browse through Fuckyeahgdragon tumblr (the source for most of these pictures) and I dare you to try and not fall for him, it's impossible!

30 Days of December: 5

Well a happy belated MERRY CHRISTMAS to those who celebrate it!!!!! I was supposed to post this yesterday but obviously due to the holiday I was busy hehe. On to the meme!

Days 1-5 | Days 6-10 | Days 11-15 | Days 15-20



Day 21: A recipe

This is a rice crispy equivalent, except you use Corn Flakes instead of Rice Crispies and it's mostly made around Christmas because you make it into a wreath shape. (Usually there is one big wreath made instead of individual little ones). I want to share this with everyone because it is sooooo good, and such a big part of my early childhood Christmas memories. Whenever I think of Christmas as a little girl, this treat always comes to mind and for a while my aunt stopped making it, so yesterday on Christmas when she showed up with two plates of it, me and my cousins and sister freaked out over it because we hadn't had it in so long. :) It's just so tasty!



Day 22: A website
My Tumblr! I was really defiant against getting a tumblr, I don't really know why, but I got one now and I really like it! It's a lot like Livejournal but LJ is still waaaaaaaaay better because you can filter things so that your friends "feed" isn't all cluttered and there's profiles and user pics and communities and yeah I was supposed to be promoting tumblr lol.



Day 23: A Youtube video

I love this performance of theirs! And my favorite Sooyoung looks GORGEOUS as hell here! ^_^



Day 24: Whatever tickles your fancy

I chose this performance out of all their other Christmas performances because I thought it was cute! Plus the "Jingle Bell Rock" at the end is awesome because of SHINee and f(x)! First of all Amber from f(x) was still around and not M.I.A! And although I kind of hate the fact that they treat her like a boy (I mean I know she prefers to dress/look masculine, and I"m all for that, I LOVE Amber, but when they actually TREAT her like a boy by dressing her in a MALE hanbok that's just crossing the line for me, because no matter how masculine she chooses to dress, she still is a GIRL and when it comes to traditional hanbok, they should've dressed her in a female hanbok! After all she's in a girl group!) I thought it was really cute that she sang the part with Jonghyun and Onew hehe. :) Plus Luna+Taeyeon sing together - the best voices of kpop (though honestly I think Luna's voice is better), and then there's the Jung sisters who sing together too! ^_^ Overall, just a really cute performance. :)



Day 25: Your day, in great detail
I actually won't go into great detail because I'm trying to work on not rambling too much. This Christmas was so awesome. I helped my mom all day with decorating the house and wrapping billions of presents because this was the first time in forever that we were having a family party at my house (because my mom was finally back to host it). It was fun, I got to see family members I hadn't seen in forever, and I wore this blue dress that I promised my little brother I'd wear lol, but the real reason why this Christmas was so awesome was because of my Christmas presents.

I know, I know, it sounds so materialistic, but the thing that I love was the fact that my mom got me almost EVERYTHING from my Ultimate Christmas Wish List!!! I titled that my "Ultimate" Christmas "Wish" List because I honestly never thought I'd get any of those things, (I even said that in the original post), and I would've been fine with not getting those things because I didn't expect them AT ALL, but seriously my mom got me like almost the entire list!

Cowboy boots? Check. Red boots? Check. Uggs? (Or the ~fake equivalents) Check. Subscription to Entertainment Weekly? Check! SNSD Hoot poster? CHECK! CN Blue poster? CHECK! EDIT: Gladiator sandals? Check. SNSD Calendar? CHECK! Plus many other things, I was just really blown away by the fact that my mom actually read the list, and got me the things I wanted! I never expected her to actually get my kpop posters or a subscription, etc.

Earlier in the week my mom suggested I blog about something (that I've been meaning to blog about anyway) and I felt a little weirded out by the fact that she read my blog. I mean, I do link to it on Facebook every time I update, but I never thought she would take the time to actually read it, especially since she was in Iraq this whole time. Now I see that she really does read my blog, thoroughly too, and it really paid off and now I'm not "weirded out" by it but really thankful. It was just such a rewarding Christmas and the fact that my mom is back just made it so much better. Family parties just weren't the same without her.

My Ultimate Christmas Wish List!

Now that it's December, I decided to post my ultimate Christmas list (meaning I'll probably get NONE of these items). I'm one of those people that knows what they want so when people ask me what I want I never say "I don't know, just get me whatever." NO not for me lol, I have a legit list in my mind and I tell you what I think you can get me with a reasonable price lol.

Anyway here's my wishlist. I'm going to try and put them in order of most desired to least desired (though I do want them all soo badly).

1. A subscription to Elle Girl Korea


Who cares if I can't read a word that's written in the magazines, as long as I get pretty photoshoots of my kpop idols that's all I care about. ♥ Plus, now that I'm taking Korean next semester, hopefully this'll help me learn the language faster! (I'm already learning how to read hangul, just gotta know what the words mean! lol) But ugh here is the index page for the Elle Girl Korea website but I have nooooo idea where the "subscribe" button is or anything, damn my lack of Korean! :( :(



2. Cowboy Boots


Maybe it's the fact that being in New York has made me more affectionate towards my Texan roots, but I find myself wanting a pair of cowboy boots soooo badly lately. I really want brown ones with a bit of a heel. Idk what I'd wear them with but I really want them!!! The only thing is that they seem to be really expensive, even online. :/

Also, it might be because Ted Mosby from How I Met Your Mother totally "pulls them off", but I also want a pair of red boots hehehe!





3. A subscription to Entertainment Weekly

A WEEKLY magazine full of things I find interesting, full of the subject I currently write about in my school newspaper? Uhm perfect for an aspiring journalist like myself!



4. KPOP Posters/Merchandise
OMG OMG PLEASE I WANT THESE SO BADLY OMG!!!!!!! I would TOTALLY put these higher up on the list but they're a bit impractical other than to decorate my dorm & stuff lmao. BUT OMG SERIOUSLY THERE'S NO OTHER REASON OTHER THAN PLEASE I WANT THESE SO BADLY PLEASE!!!!

4a. Posters
I REALLY want the new SNSD "Hoot" poster that I found on eBay for $5 here because as much as I love my RDR and Oh! ones, they're a bit outdated (lol not really) but the Hoot one is fierce AND colorful (whereas Oh! was only colorful, and RDR was only fierce). Ah who am I kidding, I just want a new SNSD poster! It's awesome!!!!



But since I already have 2 SNSD posters, I would really like other posters of the groups I love like CN Blue or 2PM! I would LOOOOVE any of these CN Blue posters because they were the first boy group that I fell in love with!


They're the typical Yesasia.com posters (click on the picture for link) that are like $11 dollars (though there's free international shipping!), and I found this other one on eBay for $5 plus shipping! ^_^



The only type of 2PM poster(s) I liked I found on eBay here for about $10 (plus shipping) and they come in a "package" deal. I'd really love "Type 1"!



Then there's this poster of all the SM artists I saw at SM Town LA this year! This would really just be wonderful to have, as a momento of my first kpop concert, and I just love all the artists here, and gahh yeah lol. The only thing that sucks is that it's like $25 on Yesasia! :/



4b. Calendar

I really want the new SNSD WALL calendar (not desk one), and I found it HERE for $17!!!! (eBay had it at $30).

4c. Stickers/Cell Phone Charms
Okay these are probably the least important but OMFG I WANT THEM SOOOOOO BADLY!!!!!!!!! THEY'RE SO CUTE AND ADORABLE AND OMG I CAN CARRY THEM AROUND WITH ME EVERYWHERE AND GAHH I LOVE STICKERS AND CELL PHONE CHARMS!!!! PLEASE SOMEONE GET THEM FOR MEE!! /capslock

Seriously aren't they SO cute?! You can see bigger pictures by clicking on the images themselves and going to the source. The first ones come with 8 images of SNSD, while the second one is of individual members! I REALLY want Sooyoung, Sunny, Tiffany, Hyoyeon, and Yoona! ♥ Ahh who am I kidding, I actually want ALL of them, seriously!!!


Lastly, there are stickers! I just love stickers and want to put them in my scrapbook, on my laptop, etc. These would just be great stocking stuffers. ^_^


WOW I'm obsessed with KPop SNSD. :x ANYWAY on to the rest of the list!



5. Purses

Okay after that looong mega specific post, I'll try to be more general. A have this hidden obsession with bags and shoes and I have soo many, but I always want more. After moving to my dorm I had to pick and choose which bags and shoes to take, but while I was here I realized that I don't have a black or white purse! So that's what I want. I looked on Kohls.com and found two really cute Vera Wang bags that I want on sale for about $50!


Though of course with this I'm a lot more flexible, pretty much any bag will do as long as it's big! I hate small purses lol. And although I'd looooooove any color/pattern bag I really need a black or white one.



6. Shoes

Again, people don't know the secret obsession I have with shoes. If I REALLY listed every pair of shoes I wanted, this list would be never ending, because there's a pair of peep-toe Christian Louboutins that I looove right now, but I won't even bother listing that on my ultimate Christmas list, that's like on the IMPOSSIBLE Christmas wish list lmao. I really wanna start wearing heels but I only have one pair so I don't have much variety to mix with my outfits (when I actually dress up lmao). I can't wait to go home and steal a few pairs from my mom hehe.

6a. Uggs

Anyway, I really want a pair of Uggs, or just comfy boots. Everyone here has them and they slip them on all the time and I'm just like "Ugh hold on let me tie my shoes" or something lmao, so I want comfy, convenient shoes! :)

6b. Gladiator sandals

Ugh for the longest time I've wanted a pair of these sandals and I've never gotten them! I don't care if they're suddenly out of style this summer, I'm still gonna wear them if I get them! I especially want long, gold ones like this:


Truthfully there is so much more, I always want more, I'm a typical American. However, these are seriously the things that I REALLY want right now, aside from, you know, MONEY to be able to buy them for myself lmao. Ugh now I sound completely greedy and materialistic, I swear I'm not! This is just a WISH list, and I'd be completely happy with whatever I get! Going home is seriously just enough for me right now. :) Really, I never thought I'd be this homesick so I can't wait until I go home for the holidays.

Anyway, I hope you all get what you want on your wish lists, and have a fun happy December! :)
