it's harder than a math problem.

BoA looks extremely hot and her hair is really cool. But to me her US debut songs have not been attracting me as much as any of her Korean or Japanese songs. I just feel there are some elements missing in the songs. Her full vocal potential is not expressed in most of her songs since they are often enhanced or tweaked which make them really suitable songs to be played in clubs (though I think to be a popular artist in USA, your songs have to make it into the clubs). Her dance potential on the other hand is still top notch. Till date, I still think no female artist can dance and sing as well as she can.
Looking forward to her collab with Akon though. The preview sounds exciting.
PS: I guess you can tell what I've been doing so far while waiting for my second week of school to start and the work to pile on me. haha

Find out from 2:50 onwards
Kang Ho Dong and Boom are hilarious as usual. I can't believe Hyun Joong actually asked about bed scenes. Well he always thinks of the weirdest things to ask. Hyung Joon agrees with me from the look of his face. haha. I guess that curious kid, who asked the director if he was to use his tongue like American films during kissing scenes, is interested since he was filming Boys Over Flowers at that time.

After I left college and arrived in Melbourne, I’ve been feeling that time really pass by too quickly, though I’ve been slacking for nearly one and a half month doing a lot of shopping and drama watching. I have a sudden surge to do one hundred and one things.
There is fashion design, sewing, learning the piano, dance, learning Korean and getting a job.
I get that a lot and then the wave of I-am-supergirl-I-can-do-everything disappears quickly after that. Suppose it’s all the restrictions from my parents, the fact that I was still a teen and not turning 21 next year which rings GETTING OLDER!! or TURNING LEGALLY AN ADULT!!, and maybe the freedom of making decisions now and telling your parents later. Even if they do scream at you, they can’t do anything about it immediately. I also think the Korean artists I’ve been following impressed me with their never ending tenacity by juggling so many things in a day making me realise out of 24 hours, 12 shouldn’t be spent on sleeping only.
Well I’ve signed up for fashion design courses which will eat out from the allowance I get. Which means lesser money for shopping :( I’m planning to go to Korean for an exchange programme during the first half of 2010. It might last 2 semesters if I like it there and not fail by chasing stars or dreams. Sogang University is offering an attractive exchange programme that includes an internship with a few top Korean companies like Samsung or LG. It'll be very good experience and reflection on the resume. Plus you get 2,000,000 won (approx $2500) allowance for living expenses and free Korean language classes. But I’m not sure if I can make the deadline for application. If I do miss that deadline, the only time I can take up Sogang University’s programme is 2011 which is my last semester before graduation. Not sure if that is a wise idea. The alternative is to just go for any university while my last option would be to fail and graduate one semester later.
There’s so much in my head that it’s starting to spin.
I really need to work doubly hard if I want so much. Hopefully I can manage everything too.

For those who have watched Boys Over Flowers or crazed it like me, you'll probably like this mv. The SoEul Couple (So Yi Jung & Chu Ga Eul) is so sweet and too cute! Even the song by SHINee is nice too.. and Boom is hilarious! He and all his crazy antics!! His famous ones are the dance and the "who who who?".
Best part is the Anycall phone! Pull the tab and it'll send out SOS to your other half and your exact location. I wish they had Anycall phones in Singapore or worldwide.
Anycall always have the best designs and models. Very innovative too with both the product and promotion. The Anycall Haptic Scandal, Anycall Haptic Mission 4 or AnyBand are few other good examples. You should check them out when you're free. Though it doesn't really induce you to buy the phone unless you're totally fan crazy over the starred artists, the adverts are really interesting and fun to watch, especially Anycall Haptic Mission 4. They're like another form of variety show or a long mv. haha.
PS: For those who doesn't know, Anycall is a sub-brand of Samsung.
