If Everyone Cared

With all the sadness in the world I think this song is a great one.
It made me think. Have you heard it?
It's by Nickelback, it's a few years old, still a great song.

Enjoy!!


Lyrics

From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
Confusing stars for satellites
I never dreamed that you'd be mine
But here we are, we're here tonight

Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died

And I'm singing

Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
Amen I, Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive

And in the air the fireflies
Our only light in paradise
We'll show the world they were wrong
And teach them all to sing along

Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
(I'm alive)

And as we lie beneath the stars
We realize how small we are
If they could love like you and me
Imagine what the world could be

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
When nobody died...

We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day when nobody died

I Drive Your Truck

October is coming to an end.
So for today I'm sharing some Canadian country music!
Here's one of my fave artists, Chad Brownlee.

Enjoy!

Are You Happy?

It's finally here, it felt like ages. I pre-ordered it back in August I believe ^^
And this album is more special to me, just like LOVE as I'll attend the tour this year! It's also getting closer, I cannot believe it.
I will write reviews for that later ;) Well, back to the album. I have mixed feelings, some are AWESOME and some are so-so. But it's a great mix of songs. I'd say that some sounds are typical JE, I could see Tackey and Tsubasa do 青春ブギ for some reason. ^^
My fave song is Miles Away, I love ballads and I was not surprised when I saw that O-chan is supervisor of it. 
As for solos I like O-chan's, his is always good! I like the mix of sound and O-chan's voice! And best of all I can listen to this song at the gym..hahaha 
Aiba-chan's solo is very A-chan style, not sure how it will be live, it has some difficult notes I think. And it would also suit TxT, but I bet it will be a fun performance.
And Matsujun's solo is also nice, it fits him. It's also a fun song I think it will be a great live performance!
Nino's is not like anything I expected, but I like it a lot! Well done Nino!! ^^
The best to last... Sho-kun's sounds like something Aiba-chan would do I think in many parts, but it's also VERY Sakurai Sho like. To sum it up a genki song and I think it will be fun to see live, Happy Hip-Hop Sho in a strange outfit! (^^;;)

Let the countdown begin!! Are you Happy? YES I AM ^^

Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life

OMG... it's less than a month to go!
I'm so excited to see this! I loved Gilmore Girls when I was younger.
One of the best series! I cannot wait!

My new best friends

I'm so happy over these, I cannot describe it.

Yes a bit big but they do their job!

I'm so happy for these, they work great where it's noisy.

I'm really looking forward to try them on a plane! ^^

A bit pricey but if you need the calmness and loves music!

These are a good investment.

Only One

This is another OST from the drama Cinderella and four knights that I like.
It has been quiet some time since I heard anything from Zia.
A happily surprise.

Enjoy!

Love me now

I so got hooked on this tune last week!
John Legend is sure a great singer!
He surely knows how to get my world of music shaking!!

ENJOY!

Pic proof

This is me lifting 80 kgs.. :)

We did not get the one with 90 kgs this time around, still when looking at these, I feel proud.

I actually took screen shots from a video my PT took!

Better keep the good work up!

I so wanna reach my goals!!

#GettingStronger #GettingFit #ReachingGoals #GettingSlimmer

Getting Stronger

The other day I did a new strong lifts session with my personal trainer.

We tried 90kgs again and I made it, I still need to get a bit stronger as I dropped my back slightly.

Still happy and my technique has improved a lot!

I hope to get 90kgs perfect I pulled off 80 perfect so it's not far off!

#NewSessionsComing #GettingStronger #GettingFit

Children sure can!

Have you seen this?? 4-year-old Bella from Moscow speaks Russian, English, German, Spanish, French, Chinese and Arabic!
I guess you should start early and children sure can learn a lot!!
One step at the time, so cool!!

Still Falling For You

The other day I saw the 3rd Bridget Jones movie with mum.
This song by Ellie Goulding was the ending song, I liked it and I had totally missed this song was for the movie!
As always Ellie is awesome!

Enjoy!

그대와 나

I heard this one on Spotify.
I think the next Kdrama to watch shall be this one.. W.
I have heard lots about it and after seeing this MV I think it will be a great match for me.

Enjoy!

Korean dinner

We invited a colleague and friend of my darling for dinner on Saturday.

My darling made Doenjang jjigae, Korean fermented soybean soup.

His first time and wow.. he made it with style! It became so good there was nothing left in the pot after we finished our meal. ^^

I have really craved this dish for quite some time, so I'm very pleased it turned out this well ^^

사랑을 찾는 방법

I finished the drama Cinderella and Four knights the other day, but I'm still hooked on the OST.
Here is another song I fell for while following the drama.

ENJOY!

30 days to go!

I'm longing so much to one of my fave cities in the world!!

Only 30 days left, let the countdown begin!!!

(^_^)

Sunday Dinner

We bought a fresh whole chicken and I decided to challenge myself to make a really tasty one.

I know what I liked but I couldn't find a recipe that had it all, so I decided to mix it up!

It turned out delicious! I will make this again!

I have used chicken breast before but never a whole...

I know what took me so long? Well..better late than never!

내 옆에 그대인 걸 (Beside me)

Here is a duo in the kpop world I also like.
Duos are not common, but these two can surely sing!
I really like this comeback, I think it has been almost months or even years since last time they released a track that's not an OST?

Enjoy!




뒤척이면서 아등바등
별 세우며 잠을 청해도
반짝반짝 그대가 눈부셔

밥을 먹든 커피 마시든
TV 보든 웃다가 울든
곁에 있듯 내 옆에 너인 걸

울었어 너 떠나던 날
남몰래 울었어
눈물이 앞을 가려와
비처럼 쏟아지던 바보야

잊지마 잊지마 언제까지나
사랑해 사랑해 언제까지나
혼자든 둘이든 상관없어
내 옆에 그대인 걸

전부인 듯 마지막인 듯
두 팔 벌려 내게 안기던
정말 그댄 나를 잊었나요

그래 나야 널 사랑한
네가 사랑한 나였단 걸
잊지 마요 나를 기억해줘

울었어 너 떠나던 날
남몰래 울었어
눈물이 앞을 가려와
비처럼 쏟아지던 바보야

잊지마 잊지마 언제까지나
사랑해 사랑해 언제까지나
혼자든 둘이든 상관없어
내 옆에 그대인 걸

길다란 내 미련의 끝은
꿈이었다고 누가
내게 말해줘요

널 만나러 간다 괜찮아
아픈 추억으로 날 가득 채울게

울었어 또 울었어
더 크게 울었어
눈물이 앞을 가려와
휘청이며 헤메이는 바보야
잊지마 잊지마 언제까지나
사랑해 사랑해 언제까지나
혼자든 둘이든 상관없어
내 옆에 그대인 걸

잊지마 잊지마 언제까지나
사랑해 사랑해 언제까지나
혼자든 둘이든 상관없어
내 옆에 그대인 걸

잊지마 잊지마 언제까지나
사랑해 사랑해 언제까지나
혼자든 둘이든 상관없어
내 옆에 그대인 걸

내 옆에 그대인 걸
내 옆에 그대인 걸

Stress free Shopping?

Video starts at 11.44.

I have to say, for Korea this is a very good thing, as you cannot try a lot of items on.
However in general I think a lot of people all around the world would love this.
It'd create a totally new shopping experience.

I wonder when I will be able to try it out ^^

I Believe

Another tune from the drama I'm currently insistently following!
I have had a lot of fun watching this drama, soon coming to an end. This was the first OST track I heard without knowing it was an OST. I have always liked Younha.

Enjoy!

Coffee bean Craving!

Today I realized I have a huge craving for coffee and cake from coffee bean.

I know it's loaded with sugar, and I think that could be a reason..haha

I try to cut down on my sugar intake so it could be the reason why I crave it so much.

Are you having any special craving these days!?

Enjoy!

Best surprise ever!!

I got some fantastic news yesterday.

I cannot say what yet but it will come.

My love sure knows what I like, I was overjoyed by this awesome surprise!

I LOVE IT!!!

For you

My new addiction is the Korean tv drama called 신데렐라와 네 명의 기사, Cinderella and 4 knights.
It's all a Korean drama can be, SUPER corny but just lovable!

Here's one of the OST's I really like.
However it so reminds me of Super Junior KRY's Angel, that was released way back. I thought it was them at first because of the lyrics then they started to sing and I was like.. This is not SuJu..haha
It might be the same song but different lyrics, not sure but it sounds VERY VERY similar.
Well.. not matter what, I love it.

Here's BTOB with For You.

ENJOY!

Home (Lyrics translation)

I posted the video yesterday, I love this song!

So for all of you Kpop fans, here is an English translation of the lyrics.

Some parts are tricky, because it has a longer saying in Korean, but in English that would be more correct with the shorter version. It's hard to explain, it's the way of languages.

Lyrics
Hello, how are you these days?
I guess you’re doing well
I guess I’m curious, boy
Hello
Don’t you miss me?
Even if it’s not as much
As me missing you
You said that you wouldn’t regret
With such confidence
It's lies, stop lying
You need me you need me

If I was to be honest
I’m still waiting for you
I'm locked up in my room alone and remember

I miss you but why aren’t you coming
Home home
When calling the words you used to say to me
Home home

I’m coming home
Coming home yeah
I’ll run to you
I’m coming home all alone
But now I’m all alone

I know, That I’m being a fool
I know but I can’t help it
It's lies, isn’t it just lies
Believe me believe me yeah

The future we dreamed of
I hope you don’t forget either
I'm locked up in my room alone and remember

I miss you but why aren’t you coming
Home home
When calling the words you used to say to me
Home home

I’m coming home
Coming home yeah
I’ll run to you
I’m coming home all alone
But now I’m all alone

No matter how much I look around
There won't another guy like you
You used to hold my hand so tightly
Please don’t let go of it

I used to say I wouldn’t regret
Don’t look back
And just let go
So confidently
I don’t want to be alone
Just like a fool
There is nothing to do
You’re my man, hold onto me
I’m forever your girl
Yes, tell me honestly
You still want me too
Don’t be shy
I miss you too so, come closer
We break up to make up
I wake up and hate
That you gone for so long
No matter how much you look around
There isn’t another girl like me
You need me come home

I miss you but why aren’t you coming
Home home
It’s time you come home but why aren’t you coming
Home home
Why aren’t you coming babe

Where are you, where are you yeah
I’ll run to you
Where are you, I’m alone
Our happy home

Home

I cannot describe how awesome this song and comeback is!! (Although I have realised most of her songs are about breakups..lol)
Ailee is one of my fave solo artists in K Pop.
This has to be one of the best by her so far!

ENJOY!


Lyrics
Hello 요즘 어떠니
잘 지내나 봐
나 궁금한가 봐 boy
Hello
그립진 않니
나만큼 너는
보고 싶진 않아도
후회하지 않을 거라고
자신 있게 말하던 너
거짓말 거짓말 좀 마
You need me you need me

조금 솔직해지자면
난 아직도 널 기다려
혼자 방에 갇힌 채
기억해

보고 싶은데 너 왜 안 와
Home home
전화하며 내게 했던 말
Home home

I’m coming home
Coming home yeah
달려갈게 네게로
I’m coming home
All alone
하지만 지금은 나 홀로

I know
바보 같단 걸
알고 있지만 어쩔 수가 없잖아
거짓말 거짓말 아냐
Believe me believe me yeah

우리 꿈꾸던 미래를
너도 잊지 않길 바래
혼자 방에 갇힌 채
기억해

보고 싶은데 너 왜 안 와
Home home
전화하며 내게 했던 말
Home home

I’m coming home
Coming home yeah
달려갈게 네게로
I’m coming home
All alone
하지만 지금은 나 홀로

Oh 아무리 둘러봐도
너 같은 남자는 또 없는걸
내 손을 꼭 잡아주던 너
놓지 말아줘

후회하지 않을 거라고
Don’t look back
And just let go
자신 있게 말해놓고
I don’t want to be alone
이런 바보 같은 모습
어쩔 수 없는 걸
넌 내 남자 날 붙잡아
I’m forever your girl
Yes 솔직히 말해
너도 아직 날 원하고 있잖아
수줍어하지마
I miss you too so
가까이 다가와
We break up to make up
I wake up and hate
That you gone for so long
아무리 둘러봐도
나 같은 여자는 없다고
You need me come home

보고 싶은데 너 왜 안 와
Home home
올 때 됐는데 너 왜 안 와
Home home
(너 왜 안 오는 건데 babe)

어디야 어디야 yeah
달려갈게 네게로
어디야 I’m alone
행복했던 우리 둘의 home

Fantôme

The wait is over, Utada Hikaru is back! This is her first full album in eight years. The highly anticipated album includes the 2012's Sakura Nagashi, theme song of Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo.. And it also features her two recent digital singles – Hanataba wo Kimi ni and Manatsu no Tooriame.
I was so excited for this, I know there are so many idols out there, but if you like Japanese music, this is an album you got to listen to! It sure has been a long wait but it was so worth it!
Welcome back!!!

Homemade Miso Ramen

Yesterday I was very lucky to get treated to this, homemade miso ramen.

She sure made it from scratch. I'm so happy for her effort, it was delicious.
We put some chili powder into it making it Spicy Miso.

I cannot wait until I go to Japan! I want Tonkotsu ramen...hehe

Beautiful Flowers

I love these kinds of flowers, however they cost quite a lot so I don't buy them to often.

Last Saturday my darling surprised me, as we passed by my favourite flower shop in Stockholm he said, pick the ones you like. I said the amount we wanted to pay and the colour. And the florist put this together. So beautiful! I'm the luckiest in the world!!

♥

New record!

I made a new record the other day!

I pulled off 90kgs deadlift!

I feel proud, I didn't think I would be able to make it.

It was super heavy for me, I almost gave up. But I did it!

I feel so proud ^^
