Acupuncture!

Tried acupuncture for the first time!now the doctor has cracked my neck and spine,made me bleed - and made me feel like a new person ^^

I booked a time to get a treatment, still not sure if i should cancel it...

Housing - CHECK!

Yesterday evening I got an email from my upcoming uni. in Canada.
They offered me housing on campus! one of my 4 selections.
I got a single room in one of the apartments, so I'll have my privacy and access to kitchen etc.
Also it seems like I'll have a Starbucks downstairs ^^

Happy thoughts :)

Music

My brother is going nuts over the fact that our house play so much Asian music... Welcome home brother XD
Anyway it's not that he doesn't like it, it's just that he doesn't understand a single word!
The thing is though.. these days I don't really follow all the songs, just the really big ones, note I might be 1-2weeks behing, also these days I'm into my Shinhwa bias as well as my Arashi bias.
Which is kinda enough as it is.. but I'm also into SNSD's unit TTS, 4Minutes "new" Volume up and Secret's "Alone".


As for today... talking about Korean music I'm gonna share two OSTs. One for the Kdrama called "Captain, Take care of us" and the other one is the OST for Padam Padam.

This song is called "It's cold" and it's performed by Secret's JiEun.



This one is called In order to live and it's performed by NOEL

Children are awesome!!

Last Saturday I watched the 8th episode of Shinhwa TV.
What can I say but.. I knew it was coming!!
The stylists from HELL... or maybe the unique ones.
Depends on who you ask I suppose!
Anyhow the "best" one was no one else but our leader Eric!!
Gabriel and Saerom really did a work of art, it even brought 4-year old Maiden to tears! (^^;;) ← note not tears of joy!!


From that...



To this....

Today's quote

"Truly loving someone is understand and care for them, not invading their privacy, stalking or spread false rumors about them"

Absurd!

I just read in the newspaper that South Korean authorities have reported a new drug from China, and the main ingredient is made from dead babies!!
It sounds unbelievable, yet seems to be true! Also it has been mixed with herbs etc to make the baby powder not to stand out!

I felt like i was gonna throw up when i read it! I mean who could come up with such idea!?

Sometimes it really feels like the world is heading so wrong yet we, humans, declare ourselves to be the superior art!!

Today's quote

"The best way to torture people is with your happiness, there's nothing more people hate than seeing you be successfull"

Five weeks!

Now it's five weeks left of this semester, feels nice yet way to go..which sucks!

Anyway try to think happy thoughts right ^^
At the moment I'm waiting for the bus, on my way to uni...
I fell asleep at 2 and woke up at 6, still not as tired as i should be, just a bit sleepy..
Gonna take a nap on the bus

The locked room

Another drama I'm currently following is Arashi's leader Ohno Satoshi's drama, called Kagi no Kakatta Heya (The locked room)
I love Ohno-san's character and the drama is interesting!! :) Also the themesong is awesome, one of the best Arashi songs ever!! (Even my dad cannot stop listening to it XD)





Title: 鍵のかかった部屋 (Kagi no Kakatta Heya)
Broadcast network: Fuji TV
Broadcast period: 2012-April-16 start
Air time: Monday 21:00
Theme song: Face Down by Arashi

Story
Enomoto Kei is a security "otaku" working for a security firm, devoted to improving the securities system on a daily basis. He is not an easy person to familiarize oneself with, always collected and calm, unapproachable, a maniac in Physics, Science, Architecture and profound in other basic theoretical foundation. He is certain and proud of the fact that there is no key which he cannot unlock.
One day, Kei is asked to help reveal a mystery behind a locked room murderer. While he lacks any interest in solving the mystery, he is inevitably intrigued by the term, "Closed Doors" and decides to take on the position. He works side by side with Aoto Junko and Serizawa Gou, who are lawyers working at a major law firm. Junko is pure and forward, acting upon her instincts while Serizawa is a prideful elitist who sees time as money, and therefore, will not take on any job that is unprofitable.
Possessing a vast amount of knowledge and acute insightfulness, Kei is able to unlock the closed doors and unravel the secrets leading to the solution. Never before has there been a drama focused solely on closed doors. It's an all new original mystery that will keep you guessing every week!

Main cast
Ohno Satoshi as Enomoto Kei
Toda Erika as Aoto Junko
Sato Koichi as Serizawa Gou

Back on track!

This spring i have had lots of downs which has stopped me from working out as much as i wanted too...

But now it feels like I'm back on track!
This week i have been exercising a lot and it feels great!
Less great for my muscles who are not use to this but i think they will get over it soon enough XD

Happy Sunday!

Back home

Tonight, or this evening, i met up with a friend i haven't seen for a year..almost!
Both are busy so it's difficult to find time to meet.
Anyway today i went to her house, for the first time since she moved.

It was a nice, quiet, evening with lots of fruit and tea!
also her sister was at home, whom i haven't seen for 3 years..

Felt kinda strange that time has passed this much, but better to see each other later than never!? ^^

Now I'm back home and i guess it's soon time to sleep ^^

Face down!



Who missed out on MUSIC STATION last night?
Arashi performed LSS and their new single FACE DOWN. I love Matsujun's new hairstyle!! ^^
I'm hooked on this song! It's a brand new sound for the boys I'd say and it's awesome!
I love the lyrics, ie. Sakurap ^^

I also like the other songs on the new single.
My fave is ひとりじゃないさ!!

Also.. today.. as a treat I'd share the full PV!

Baby steps - Lyrics



As mentioned before, I really like this new unit, and to release stress and other thoughts I thought I'd translate this lyrics... for all you non-speaking Korean people.
Since my mind has lots to deal with atm this lyrics might have a few errors here and there.. but I'd say it's 98% okay ^^


This is my translation of the lyrics SNSD unit TaeTiSeo's song Baby Steps!
If you want to use it, ask for permission first
Comments are always welcomed ^^


Korean/English
움켜쥔 마음이 자꾸 새어나가
My clapping heart keeps on twisting
숨겨보고 감춰도 모두 흘러나가
I try to hide and cover it but it all out flows
닿을 수 없는 너를 보면서
As watching you whom I cannot touch
내 작은 그림자도 들킬까 숨었어
I hide the small shaddow of mine that might be spotted


Oh 난 떨리는 걸음을 조심히 다가가 봐
Oh, I, with trembling steps, carefully approach you
Oh
난 더 가까이 갈수록 어쩐지 두려워져 네가 멀어질까
Oh, the closer I get, Somehow the more I'm afraid that you'll get distant

One, two
내 맘이 three, four 숨결이 five, six 온몸이
One, Two, my heart Three, Four, my breath Five, Six, my entire body

너만
보며 걸어
Walks only towards you


두 눈을 가릴수록 네가 더 잘보여 it’s you it’s you
I cover up my two eyes so that I see you clearer It's you, it's you
내
두 귀를 막을수록 종일 너만 들려
I block my ears so that I only hear you

네
눈빛 읽어내기 어려워
It's difficult to read your eyes
온종일 네 곁에서 눈치만 보게 돼
All day by your side I'm being cautious


Oh
난 떨리는 걸음은 더 한번 다가가 봐
Oh, I, with trembling steps, carefully approach you again
Oh
넌 내 사랑이 보이는 가까운 거리까지 이젠 다가와 줘
Oh, you my love please come closer now


One, two 내 맘이 three, four 숨결이 five, six 온몸이
One, Two, my heart Three, Four, my breath Five, Six, my entire body

너만
보며 걸어
Walks only toward you
One, two
어제도 three, four 오늘도 five, six 내일도
One, two yesterday three, four today five, six tomorrow too
Baby steps
너를 향해 걸어
I walk with baby steps toward you


오늘도 나 혼자 눈물짓는 걸음으로 널 향해 걷고 있지만
Again today, with tearful steps I walk toward you but 
네 맘에 닿는 날 네 품에 안아줄 그 날을 기다려I need you hey
I’m waiting for the day you will hold me in your embrace I need you hey


Oh
난 떨리는 걸음은 조심히 다가가 봐
Oh, I, with trembling steps, carefully approach you
(oh somebody help me oh somebody help me)
Oh
난 더 가까이 갈수록 어쩐지 두려워져
Oh, the closer I get, Somehow the more I'm afraid
난
떨리는 걸음은 더 한번 다가가 봐
I, with trembling steps once again carefully approach you
내 사랑이 보이는 가까운 거리까지 이젠 다가와 줘
Oh, you my love please come closer now

One, two 내 맘이 three, four 숨결이 five, six 온몸이
One, Two, my heart Three, Four, my breath Five, Six, my entire body

너만
보며 걸어
Walks only toward you
One, two
어제도 three, four 오늘도 five, six 내일도
One, two yesterday three, four today five, six tomorrow too
Baby steps
너를 향해 걸어
I walk with baby steps toward you
Baby

Another batch of Gmarket Goodies!!

My parcel finally arrived, after being lost for almost a week at the Swedish Post office!! I was so frustrated and I'm so happy I finally got it!
I kinda ripped it open! ^^

So What did I get this time?
1. A handbag (orange), I found it on sale and thought it was cute and perfect for this season!

2. Mp3 leather case for my Samsung Yepp MB1. My old one is worn out and I was so happy to find a new one!

3. Mobile phone case + accessories (key buttons and earphone cap) - What I love is the extra screen protectors I got!!

4. SHINHWA's The Return - Thank you Edition cd - I forgot to order the limited one (T_T) But I managed to get this edition!
Shinhwa was the ONE who made me a Kpop fan back in the early 2000's and I love their comeback! I've been waiting for 4 years for this and it was WORTH it!!

5. Scarf - I really needed a new one and the colours are awesome and great for this season!! Good buy!



I wonder when I'll order my next batch of goods... there are so much more things I want ^^
