=D

Wow I haven’t had a proper update in about 2weeks plus. Must be a new record or something *laughs*

Anyway, I’m here to say that I’m still very much alive and kicking. I’m now in my last semester for my first year as a Degree student *cheers*.

I was busy with assignments for most of the time in the past two to three weeks. Since this is a short semester, everything happens twice as fast. Just because it’s a short sem (7wks, long sem 14wks) doesn’t mean we study only half the stuff we usually do. Everything is crammed into 7weeks which emans we have to work twice as fast and go to class twice as many times in a week. But I only have 3assignments so it wasn’t very hectic.

As some of you might know, due to my awesome results last semester, I am currently repeating my favourite subject, Costing. This time, we got a Chinese lecturer and she’s so much better than the one I had last semester. That freaking lady can’t teach to save her life, I assure you that. Now if I bump into her in campus, I’ll be like ‘Dang it, today damn soi bump into her.’ *snickers*

Then, last Friday (11.11.2011) me and two dozen other friends had a full scale family themed campaign in our lecture hall, with opening ceremonies, decorations and performances. I was in charge of publicity (which was the easiest job for me), all I had to do was stand in front of the class and promote our campaign (i.e. when, where, what etc). Easy right? the campaign turned out better than expected and our lecturer was taken by surprise because he did not expect us to pull it off so well (as we were the first team and first teams normally don’t do very well).

After the campaign came midterms! Everybody thought Moral midterm was going to be a piece of cake and boy were we wrong. Even though it’s just true/false, the questions were darn tricky and I can say that out of 25, I guessed almost half. Not looking forward to seeing the results. Two hours after Moral was Costing *insert dramatic sound effect like lightning and thunder strike*.

With the fear of going blank and guessing 90% of the answers like last semester’s midterm, it was so freaking obvious that I would be freaking out before the test came. I actually couldn’t sleep the night before the campaign because I was too worried about us failing the campaign and me failing my Costing midterm. I hate that stressed feeling when I sleep. I feel like something is pressing down on my chest and my heart beat gets more and more rapid and also I can breathe properly. It’s like being suffocated. Having said all that, Costing midterm wasn’t that bad after all. Heck, it was so much better than last semester’s midterm.

i'm also getting back in touch with my inner kid (not that i'm not big of a kid already...hehe) i'm on an anime marathon after so long. i'm watching Inuyasha (familiar?? no? never mind..) and this demon cat is so damn cute!!!! (Inuyasha is a demon dog ok..) don't believe? see for yourself!!

this feline's name is Kirara and she is SO DAMN CUTE!!!

We Are SONEs, nothing else

by imwhywhy@Twitter: (originally posted here)

[For SONEs] Kim Taeyeon - a leader who truly touched me:

There's a word in Korean called '
덕후 (deoku)', a word originated from Japanese word 'Otaku'. When some people like something til they are sick, people call them 'XX-deok'.

Sones are often called '소덕' (So-deok), meaning people who are obsessed with SNSD, staying at home spazzing abt them every day. Some sones call themselves '소덕' because they admit that they are indeed obsessed with SNSD, and they feel nothing about it.

However, Taeyeon has been showing discontentment whenever people use this name to describe sones. She considers this a offensive word, and have reminded people a lot of times about its abuse.

Today on Radio Star, the MC once again mentioned that sones are 'So-deok', Taeyeon immediately said that 'It's not a nice word', she was so serious that the MC apologized and promised not to use it again.

Whether this word is rude or not doesn't matter, what touched me is how Taeyeon tries to protect her fans and how much she cares for us, even emphasizing on how people should address us.

She thinks about sones more than anyone does, asking fans if they've eaten their lunch/dinner whenever she has chance, asking everyone to take care of their health even though she falls sick more often than us.

Her unhappiness about the word 'So-deok' is once again an indication of her carefulness and tender heart. This is indeed the best leader in the universe, someone we should cherish forever.

***

This person here made it clear to me as why I defend the name SONE so persistently. We are SONEs, a name given to each and every one of us who are fans of the girls and we like our name a lot. Please call us that instead of other names that you have thought for us.

I’ve been called many different names during my two years of being a SONE, some of them would be a SNSD-freak, kpop-fan and person-who’s-crazy-bout-SNSD. I don’t like being called all those names because it doesn’t sound nice. I’m not offended at all really, but it frustrates me to no end that no matter how many times I’ve explained it to them, they still don't get it.

And apparently our dear leader feels the same. I am touched and glad that our leader stood up for us and I hope that SONEs around the world will be addressed accordingly, as SONEs, and no other names.

*Dolce Far Niente

I'm a lazy girl
Yeah, yeah I'm a lazy girl
I'm a lazy girl

I don’t put make-up on
I don’t care about my hair sticking out everywhere
I just eat and watch TV
I don’t want to do anything today

My daily life that leaves me out of breath
The numerous people I bump into
The joy of love that never lets me rest
I want to forget about it a little & rest for a moment

*Just for today I’m a lazy girl
Don’t come looking for me
I'm a lazy girl
Just for today, even loving is bothersome
It's often a delightful thing in the midst of busy days
This sweet hobby

I lie on the sofa and sing
When the rays of sunshine blind me is when I open my eyes
I like junk food, and for today I stop my diet
Just for today

My daily life that leaves me out of breath
The numerous people I bump into
The joyful love that never lets me rest
I want to forget about it and take a break

*Just for today I’m a lazy girl
Don’t come looking for me
I'm a lazy girl
Just for today, even loving is bothersome
It's often a delightful thing in the midst of busy days
This sweet hobby

Sleep in past noon
Oh no no don’t even go looking for my boyfriend
Oh no no don’t use the internet or my smartphone
Push everything to do today until tomorrow

*Just for today I’m a lazy girl
Don’t come looking for me
I'm a lazy girl
Just for today, even loving is bothersome
It's often a delightful thing in the midst of busy days
This sweet hobby

I'm lazy girl so lazy girl
I'm lazy girl so lazy girl
I'm lazy girl so lazy girl
I'm lazy girl I'm a lazy girl
Lazy girl
Lazy girl
