렛츠 스피크 코리안 Let's speak Korean!! Haha... that's the direct English translation of let's speak korean. Suddenly want to improve my korean again. I stopped my korean course because I thought I lost interest. After spending much time on Korea entertainment I've found my motivation back!
Watching TV programmes you would want to watch the people talking instead of having to look at the bottom of the screen for sub-titles. People spend more time reading the sub-titles than watching the movie itself. Kind of irritating right?
I guess the only way to start learning is probably speaking and reading more Korean stuff? Seems like the only way I can learn is through reading the news of korean celebrities. I can form interest out of being curious about what the news are trying to say. But most of the time I fall after reading the first sentence. Haha! Don't understand anything~~~
Following SuJu and other Korean celebs on Twitter seemed to help too! I get to read their korean posts, learn abit here and there, and sometimes I actually understand what they are saying!! Those are the times I feel I have improved. Kind of satisfying too!
I've been eyeing the LG Lollipop for awhile, only looking at its exterior. I happen to be able to touch and play with one at a LG store, and found out it can type korean!! I was so excited, I told myself I have to get one. Then I casually brought up to daddy by first asking which of our plans have reached 2 years. In our family, whoever's phone plan reaches 2 years, and if anyone is interested to change phone can change, even if you're not the owner of the plan. So I asked them this question and nearest I got was 1 yr 5 months. Then obviously they will raise the question back to me, "Why? You want to change phone?" So I said I was looking at one. Then I mentioned it was a LG phone, and I want it because it can type Korean. What surprised me was my dad's reply, "Go and get it lor!" I said, "Serious?" Then added that I would be using 2 different phones if I got the LG one. Dad replied "Ya, get it without plan. How much?" So I mentioned around $200-$300++. Throughout the whole conversation he was surprisingly relaxed. Usually if I wanted to get a new phone, I have to convince him for quite some time, talking my sense into him. This time it's so different. I really feel like I've grown up.
So many things I want to do, yet I coop myself at home most of the time. The other thing I can think about is the tattoo. Really want to get 1, but I don't know where to go to. So many planning to do when you reach this age. Planning through them with details like a responsible adult. Can't believe Im reaching 22 already.
Sigh. Lollipop and tattoo 기다려주십시오.

Keep the Faith!
Oh, and it was a super abrupt end to the 09/10 English Premier League last weekend. All the matches were played at the same time on the same day on Sunday. It's how they started the season too, start and end at the same time. As usual I was watching Arsenal take on Fulham. Chelsea had to win their match if they wanted to claim the title. They won their match 8-0. So much for scoring 103 goals in 38 games. That's a Premier League record. And to think people were banking on Arsenal to break the 100-mark at the start of the season. HaHaHa.
Anyway, it was a weird season many would say. Arsenal were in and out of the race almost every different week! In the end we ran out of fire power towards the last few games and fell. Never really got back up until the last game of the season, which was a rather easy one considering Arsenal were playing at home, Fulham filled a weaker starting-11 due to their Europa League Final coming tonight. They wanted to conserve most of the energy of the first-team players so they will be fresh for tonight. Understandable since they are mid-table save in the League, and have every opportunity to take the Europa League title. In a way, it was an easy match.
By half time Arsenal were already 3-0 up. Kind of like game over for Fulham. It also had an 'end of season' feel as the players began to decrease the game speed, almost strolling around the pitch. The end result was 4-0. What a way to end the season too with Vela's trademark CHIP. Arsenal started the season with Denilson's wonder goal, and ended with Vela's chip. At least it was a good ending. Some movies don't even have an ending at all.
Now the transfer reports are flying. Reports say Marouane Chamakh is on his way to Arsenal. I think that's already a done deal - sooner or later the official website is going to annouce so. I believe there are more players going to come in too. Not sure who, but all the rumours flying around are usually 90% false. Hard to believe them. Anyway, I guess the only thing football to look forward now is the WORLD CUP. Daddy not subscribing to it on cable TV, so it's online for me! Not sure who Im rooting for though, caught between England and Spain. England because I watch EPL, and basically know every English players they have. Spain because I somehow like Spain for no reason. It's the same with Nadal. There's just something about these Spanish sports people. Their passion and quiet-ness? As in they don't boast and always remain humble? I don't know.
If both England and Spain were to reach the Final, I'd probably go 51% Spain. I think they deserve it more than England.

SUJU TIME!
People it's SUJU time!!! They are finally making their comeback with their 4th album!! Even though there's only gonna be 10 of them, it's still worth looking forward to!
Here is the MV of my favourite Korean boys - 미인아 BONAMANA . They look SUPER awesome, don't they? Haha. Can't wait for their comeback debut this friday. Hopefully they win an award too! These boys totally deserve their status, they've worked so hard to reach where they are now. No matter what happens, Super Junior will always be my babies, and they will always be 13!
Hangeng, Kibum, Kangin... waiting for all 13 to be together.

Emo time~
Trying to waste a bit of time. Not going into details as to why, as I believe I've done the complaining before. It's all the same situation, no matter who comes. Anyway, there's nothing much I can do about it too, except to complain. Haha...
These are the times where I'd love to leave the house. Either they go out, or I go out. I seem a bit anti-social right? Sometimes I wonder if Im sick. Haha! You know those anti-social illness? Chinese call 'Zhi Bi Zhen'. I watched Brilliant Legacy recently, and the kid brother has that. Im not as serious as his though, but similar?
Im tired. But trying to keep myself awake. Sick right? I think I keep alot of stuff to myself lately. Like the amount I tweet and blog, shows how much thoughts I have on my mind. Like can't find anyone to share also. People may think Im actually talkative in person. Im one of those that literally have 2 different personalities in person, and on msn or twitter etc. Im shy, look like I killed someone when I feel emo, even looking unapproachable. I WANT to be social, want to feel important and stuff, but my stupid mouth wun open. I think I mention before, that sometimes my mind will explode with great questions and stuff to say during a conversation, but they always end up kept shut in my mind, refusing to be said out by my mouth. I also dunno what im afraid of. Is like, I can never find the right moment to say something right.
I think it's partly coz I reflect on people's thoughts and words WAY TOO MUCH. Is like, stuff said during my primary school etc, are remembered so clearly now. Stuff about my appearance, my actions, my whatever, is like what ever people comment on me, I REMEMBER. And I hang onto them for quite some time, maybe never forgetting. I also tend to remember embarassing moments, and hang onto them like forever. And they're mostly the bad stuff I remember, hardly any good ones. Am I too hard on myself? Can I ever be more free? Haha... funny if I put it that way.
Whatever it is, nothing seems to motivate me these days... I think my parents will probably feel im useless. Ok, better stop bashing myself now. Just gonna make me cry any moment. Nitez people.
