New Stuff

New Stuff

Yay I finally got myself to blog again... it's getting harder and harder due to laziness & lack of mood. But I laughed when Jill told me that she's watching my blog instead of reading it nowadays, since I post more pictures & photos than text nowadays. And most people probably noticed that there's really not much about me anyway. Well, I guess lots of my personal life is best kept to myself, as I still don't feel that secure to let it all out just yet... You can try digging for clues, but I'm just not as open as before...

Won in DiGi Contest!
Yahoo! I won something from DiGi for the 2nd time (1st time was a Tomb Raider OST many years ago)~ This time it was the Transformers contest, where you have to purchase a Transformer-related item in order to participate. chanel handbags downloaded the Transformers java game and it was wonderful. Then I got the car sticker from them and also filled out the "creative name" for my own Transformer. And soon after the contest results were out, I received an SMS saying I won a mini Transformer! Woohoo!

Kiru's Birthday
Kiru, one of the pretty gurlz in the office recently received a lil birthday surprise. It was a cute heart-shaped strawberry on chocolate cake made out of delicious goodies... Some of us ate after buka but gosh it was such a lovely cake. Real suitable for the lovely birthday gurl, who seemed really red throughout the surprise... heehee~

Introducing: So Nyeo Shi DaeI found this group by accident through BoAjjang. When they were mentioning theories on why BoA hasn't had much attention in Korea for the last 2 years, someone mentioned 소녀시대 - So Nyeo Shi Dae (aka Girls' Generation and spelled as So Nyuh Shi Dae by some people or SNSD for short), a new girl band managed by the same person in charge of BoA. I decided to give their 1st single, "다시 만난 세계 (Into The New World)" a try. And boy were they good. Pretty nice vocals, although still not at the level of BoA, I heard they went through something like 7 years of training so I guess they're trying their best and might get real big in the future. I imagined them as a 4 to 5-member girl version of Dong Bang Shin Ki (DBSK) and I sure got a shock when I found out they were a 9-member superband! And received further shock because they all look like mini-BoAs... lol~

I simply love and adore TaeYeon & Jessica. Oh, TaeYeon's the leader and she sure has real superb vocals, not to mention having a funny personality and being cute as a button. Quite an interesting person, makes you wanna know her~ XD

Adorable TaeYeon~

Jessica on the other hand, together with Tiffany received education in the US and both have excellent English. Which is so cool (TaeYeon's English is not too bad either)~

Here's TaeYeon again, this time with Tiffany singing "Because of You":
(go go leader!)



I was tempted to post their debut single MV, but I'll post it later in the Review section. I sure look forward to future releases from this band, especially with their rather good abilities despite being new in the industry. They're not quite as good as BoA yet, but I guess with hard work, they'll catch up soon enough. Btw, their debut album is coming real soon... XD

New Router
The old router at home died so I went hunting for a replacement. Decided to get a similar model. Gosh how times have changed... the new router's 2/3 of the old model's size and looks really cool!

LOVE LETTER Arrived!Jill was telling me how my blog was funny since it had about 10 different angles for the same object. Well, Sorry Jill, but here's another example... BoA's latest single, LOVE LETTER arrived, and it was quite like a work of art, with its chrome pink CDs and artistic covers~

Revoltech Miniature EVA01 Prototype
I was suppose to post this in the last entry... Here is the new miniature version of EVA01 (Rebuild of Evangelion version) from Kaiyodo's Revoltech line. The miniature series is still fairly new. This figure was slightly over 10cm tall but had the articulation of a full-sized Revoltech. Pretty neat stuff if you ask me. He could even stand up to a full-sized EVA02 (End of Evangelion version).

Okla, not much else to say for this time (not that I talked much at all anyway). Sorry that I've been typing so little, it's just that I'm out of words and a lil bit of a hurry (and the office net sux!). So till the next entry then~


PEACE and God Bless,

Aris
