I call him WTF!

I have known ‘this’ guy for quite a long time. We were friends, well, actually we’re not always in good terms because he always gets that perverse thrill in teasing me or irritate me in any way he could. He would always oppose everything I say and I would get mad at him and we would be bickering with one another. He never fails to ruin my day.

Though we were always fighting, we still remain as friends. Yes, I would admit that he’s also as damn good friend as he’s irritating. Sometimes, we would just talk some crazy and stupid things, laugh at each other’s joke but then later on we would just end up fighting again for some inane reason. But that’s the best part of it. Funny, but I’ve started to enjoy each time we were like that.

And that’s it! It had never occurred to me. Whenever I thought about him (Hey, I’m not saying I thought about him; he just like crossed my mind from time to time, okay?) I always figured of him as the single most irritating person I’ve ever met, but what the heck? I did not notice that I was already trapped. I fell in his booby trap and I couldn’t escape anymore. I tried to conceal the feelings because I was afraid I might lose our friendship.

Then came one day that he suddenly confessed to me that he was beginning to fall for me. I was dumbfounded. And yes, I was happy upon hearing that from him. So, I thought of confessing about my feelings for him too, but I ended up keeping that for myself.  Did I ever mention that I never had a relationship before? I had kept this promise to my mom and my friends that I will never have a boyfriend unless I’ve already finished my studies. So, that pushed me to divert and disregard the idea and told him that it was just another part of his practical joke. He got mad and it was my fault, I know. After that incident, he never bothered to open that idea again but the good thing is that we remain as friends.

One day, I just learned that he already had a girlfriend. They seemed to be happy together because he has totally forgotten me. I started not to talk to him or even text him. I was really hurt. My heart seemed to bleed inside. And then I found out from a common friend that he and his girlfriend already broke up. I know it may sound bad but I was so happy when I heard the ‘good news’. (Hahahaha!)

And we’re back again to ‘normal’, back in our usual dog-cat relationship. I don’t know where this game would lead us but as long as he is there for me and knowing that he is not committed to anyone… I’m contented. =)

But, I never expect that things would get harder for me. Each day that passes by, my feelings for him gets stronger and I even thought of breaking the promise I had with my mom and my friends. Then suddenly he just got rid of me. He made me fall for him and then all of a sudden he told me that I should forget about him. That really crashed me inside and I hated him for that. I didn’t bother to ask him anymore why he wanted me to stay away from him. So there… he was my first love, my first heartbreak, and I call him WTF!

K-POP FANS CAN RELATE ^^

Here’s what psychologists says about K-pop fans:

 
“Don’t underestimate those children who chase after Korean celebrities, their hearts are purer than anyone else, they love courageously, they will want to try their best to tackle difficult obstacles, the language and cultural barriers. They symbolize peace, they don’t discriminate based on race, they befriend people with the same interest from different countries, they’re more passionate and warm than anyone else. They don’t betray the ones they like easily, they are persistent and don’t give up easily. They are stronger than anyone else on the inside, because when they are loving these Korean stars, they experience the setbacks they’ve never experienced in life. They are all sensitive children, easily touched to tears for a long time because of one incident. Their memory is very good, they can easily remember the korean lyrics they don’t understand, and their coordination skills are also very strong. Most of them are cheerful children, not the kind who keep to themselves. Their will of determination is also very strong, they are able to persevere all the way just to buy something related to the celebrity they like. In short, the way these children think is vastly different from others, and their thoughts are not easy to understand. Generally, only those who have similar interests are able to enter their world.”

BEING A K-POP FAN

For others, it’s a crazy obsession. You want to tell them “No, it’s not” but you know they will never understand. It’s hard to explain to them why you listen to songs you can’t even understand, the countdowns you make for their comebacks, the photos you cherish because they contain their smiles, the pride you feel on their success, the tears you shed when they are hurt, the excitement to see them live, and the dream to be someday be an important part of their lives. They don’t understand why these people matter to you so much and you think to yourself, “Because they have made my life more colorful and beautiful. They are my inspirations.” But you just look at them and say nothing because you know no matter what you say… they will still wouldn’t understand.

CONFESSION OF A LEE MIN HO ADDICT ❤

He amused me with his jovial personality as Che Gong Chan in Mackerel Run; and fantasized over a wealthy heir Gu Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers; a much loved saccharine boyish look as Jeon Jin Ho in Personal Taste; hooked me up with his dynamic action skills in City Hunter Lee Yoon Sung; then he awed me with such sword fighting scenes, death defying bravery in Faith being the fated general Choi Young. ❤

Flashback to the 18th of evening of November 2012, as Lee Min Ho visited Manila, part of his lined up activities (since the 16th) for a global clothing brand endorsement.

As he ascend in front of the wildest-magnanimous crowd ever happened in that illustrious stage of Glorietta Activity Center, my heart skipped a beat and almost died of a heart attack. All the exaggeration is omnipresent and he’s worth it.

In that momentous event I activated all my senses from being oblivious to being ultrasonic. Almost the deafening squeals, I followed his every move, autographed every detail of his appearance in my memory bank. The way he carried himself apart from what he famed for character roles in films and movies.

His impeccable choice of words for the fans while showing off that bedimpled smile captivated among us. And the crowd left awe-strucked as he finally descend the stage for the next event for that night.

Was even surprised and at the same time thankful to his personal bodyguards for being so keen and kind-hearted in helping out Lee Min Ho dealing with the uproaring fans which lead us to feel very special when on e of his bodyguard noticeably re-directed Lee Min Ho to the west wing lobby where I stood. Finally we’re able to be given a chance to bid farewell as he walks off the stage, as we all scream in unison: “Saranghae, Lee Min Ho oppa!” as we waved him. That made us more ecstatic when he don’t fail us to return the courtesy. =)

I so love him! It is my monumental and enchanting evening in my memory to live by.

Thank you for visiting us. Indeed, Philippines loves you, Lee Min Ho! =) ❤

DO’s and DONT’s DURING K-POP ENCOUNTER

DO’s
1. DO have someone with you. A companion is quite handy when you need to take your picture.
2. DO carry a tiny notebook and pen in your bag for those surprise sightings!

3. DO say “thank you”.

4. DO bring a token to give. Make sure it’s handy enough for them to keep.

 

DONT’s
1. DON’T act like a stalker! If you can come up to them, go ahead. But if there are bodyguards, ask first before approaching.
2. DON’T be shy. Tell them how much they’ve inspired you — they’ll appreciate it. Because if you don’t you might regret it.
3. DON’T stutter. Compliment your idol on what he’s wearing and start from there.

And that’s it! Be ready for that ultimate K-pop encounter! 😀

BRIDAL MASK @ GAKSITAL

Haven’t been active on fangirling lately. 😦 Yesterday, I happened to check my favorite Korean drama site to know the upcoming Korean series and this what caught my attention.

It is a drama based on the 1930s about a hero named Lee Kang To (Joo Won) who was skilled at martial arts, fighting against the Japanese during the Japanese colonial era.

He also known as ‘Gaksital’ because he always wears a mask to hide his face. ‘Gaksital’ is one of those traditional play masks specifically the rosy-cheeked one reserved for the bride.

Lee Kang To appears to be outwardly dim, but he’s actually active in the independence movement against the Japanese imperialist regime during one of the darkest periods of Korea’s history.

This drama is based on the comic “Gaksital” by Huh Young Man which was first published in 1974.

I’m very much anticipating for this action series, DAEBAK Joo Won oppa! 🙂

ME AND MR. PERFECT GUY

I know that nobody’s perfect, but this won’t stop me from hoping that someday, someone who’s perfect for me will come. Someone who can make my heart race, who can make me feel good and special, or can even make me annoyed at times. He will be my confidant, my best friend, and my inspiration. He will have that enduring patience to stand with my talkativeness, and he will not give me any reason to break my trust to him. Every time I’m with him, I will feel like I’m the luckiest girl on planet. We will be good together, and good for each other.

Someday, I will fall in love with the right person, at the right time, and for all the right reasons. And when that happens, I will not get caught up in him that I will forget all the little things I love about myself, like being jolly, outgoing, and crazy. He will help me achieve my little goals everyday (like to make people around me happy), and even support me in my grandest, craziest dream: to travel in South Korea and meet my K-pop idols! 😀

I may not run into the person I deserve anytime soon, but that’s okay; I have my whole life ahead of me. I’m not in a hurry. I know my own Mr. Perfect guy is out there, and he’s also looking for me. And when we do find each other, it will be real and wonderful and splendid and enchanting. And I will know for sure that the long wait — and maybe even the heart breaks that came with it — was totally worth it. 🙂

MY EARLY NEW YEAR’s RESOLUTION

1. MUST KEEP FOCUSED ALWAYS IN EVERYTHING I DO.
I’m always like “lutang”. Sometimes it would take a while for me to go back on earth. There are also times that I just found myself staring blankly at the people passing by. Is there really something wrong with me? 😦

2. AVOID BEING LAZY.
This is a very big shame on me, but yes, I’m such a lazy person. Though not that much, he-he — it just depends on my mood.

3. STUDY HARD.
3 more months to go and I’ll be graduating and I still need to study hard in order not to fail in my remaining subjects. It would be a shame if I fail my Bible subject. Nya-ha-ha!

4. SLEEP ON TIME.
I’m always having a hard time waking up as early as 7am. So, in order to avoid being late in class and in my duty, I should sleep early. Haay.

5. BE MORE FRUGAL IN SPENDING MY ALLOWANCE.
No snacks if possible. Oh no! Among my list, this one is probably the hardest. I’m always gutom e. Nyaha!

6. LESSEN DRINKING OF SOFTDRINKS.
Wag na 12oz., “sakto” na lang. Ha-ha! 😀

7. HAVE MY DIET.
I should not eat a lot. Baww! We’ll see… Ha-ha!

8. BE A GOOD CITIZEN OF THE PHILIPPINES.
Promise, I won’t buy pirated dvd’s anymore. Nya-ha-ha!

9. OBEY MAMA AND PAPA.
I won’t be pasaway na. Being my parents, I feel so very lucky to have them both and I really admire them. I love you mama and papa! 🙂

10. ALWAYS PRAY…EAT…PRAY…LOVE… Tee-hee! 😉

MY DAD’S A FAN?

I was busy watching my favorite videos of my K-pop idols when my father told me that he has something to show me. He said that it was also a video of a boy group and he added that they were dven more handsome than my K-pop crushes. And so, at the back of my mind I was like, “Oh? Really?”. Then he handed me a dvd. Feeling so excited and at the same time curious about the even-more-handsome-guys my father was bragging all about, I immediately played the dvd.

LOADING…

I laughed so hard when I saw on the screen the boy group A1! 😀
