I needed this

Hi guys,

a very quick one.

I came across this vlogger as I was searching for Universal Studio Japan content (coz I wanna go back sooo bad!).

Her name is Gita. her USJ video was very entertaining and 'educational'? I like how she talked like a host show; straight forward and to the point. Curious, I clicked on her channel and found below video.

it's half an hour video and took a little patient to watch if this is not the kind of video you watch but give it a chance. I did. and i like it.



I hope, someone else will find this video insightful and hope it lightens your heart in any way, shape or form.

Me and Clover

If you noticed,
I sometimes watermarked my photos with Penniless Crime and *Shamrock*.

today as I was editing some photos, I wondered whats the difference between 3 leafed clover and the 4 leafed clover.

So, 

I Googled it.

I came across this article. Click Here.

Thus, if you even bothered reading that extra pop-ups, 
it says, a Shamrock (Irish Clover) is the 3 leafed ones.
the one with four leaf is not. But they mentioned how the four leafed clover means luck. the fourth being the luck.

Which  reminds me of this anime I watched not so long ago (I checked my IG, I posted this on Nov 2016); Honey and Clover.

I finally understand why (well, understand more now) one of the character was obsessing over four leafed clover, and keep saying it brings luck. or somewhere along that line.

I maybe obsessed with Westlife (Irish boyband) and know a lot more about their country than I do my own (or maybe not really), I never actually read up their history, hence why I only brought this up now.

hahhahaha 

you are too late, Az! six years after their disbandment too late!

hahahah

Diamond Sky

Annyeong!

Fancy seeing me posting on schedule, ey?

xD

I actually have some paper work to finish when I've composing this but FCUK IT! this is more important.

Sooo I was on Instagram (bila jua inda meliat instagram? LOL) and I saw this on my explore page.

*search for said 'findings' on Instagram web version* *11 mins later*

that took forever! and I am in a hurry!

again, the saying still hold its truth, 'Bila dicari, inda tia ada'

It's a video. like 3 seconds clip. of Onew. xD

*starts Googling instead* *2 minutes later*

You know what? 

*open Instagram app on phone, copy link from saved 'findings', email to myself, download it myself instead*

-_-

Such hard work this composing thing from video. I don't have the patient.

ANYHOO


hopes this video will want to load for me.

*nope! it would not load for me. thus, click here for said video*  -__-

After seeing that video, I have a new found love for this song, Diamond Sky. it's Japanese.

I love it already. I just love it more when I found out that the lyrics were actually "Be My Darling"

I never looked up the lyrics before. and I thought selama ani, that sentence was 'Be My *something Japanese*' LOL
Man! was I missing!

The fact that Onew's voice is sooooooooo chocolate melt marchmallow hotness, makes the 'Darling' sound sooooooo for me.

bahahahah

#nohateplease

Should I post lyric? of Fancam Onew Focus?

You know what?

Lets do both.

Coz this is Onew's voice appreciation post. ( I just decided on that now)

English Translation:

No
Oh yeah
I won't pretend to be friends anymore
My heart feels like it's going to break
"I didn't tell you, but
I have always been in love with you"

If the scar of that bad sunburn
Which remained on your finger since the day
A ring fell from your left hand
Will make you cry today, too

Be my darling, my darling
Reach out your hand gently
Toward the sky
Be my darling, my darling
Put your finger on that star
In the diamond sky
I'll give it to you, something which
Cannot be seen with the eye (sparkle for you)
A ring of love
In the diamond sky

"This isn't a childish trick anymore"
You, looking happy
Leaned against my shoulder
With an amazed face

The magic of love which changes
Even a commonplace scenery into a masterpiece
Changes the night sky I've looked up at countless times
Into the brightest gem in the world

Be my darling, my darling
The two of us
Gently, reached out our hands
Be my darling, my darling
And placed them on matching stars
In the diamond sky
I'll give it to you, something which
Cannot be erased (sparkle for you)
A ring of love
In the diamond sky

I lied to myself
And became good at lying
Like this
I cannot love even myself

Be my darling, my darling
I entrust these feelings
To a shining star
Be my darling, my darling
And I want you to
Always be by my side, the glistening diamond sky

Be my darling, my darling
Reach out your hand gently
To the sky
Be my darling, my darling
Place your finger on that star
In the diamond sky
I'll give it to you, something which
Cannot be seen with the eye (sparkle for you)
A ring of love
In the diamond sky

In the diamond
In the diamond sky
In the diamond (these diamonds last forever)
In the diamond sky (sky)
In the diamond
In the diamond sky
In the diamond
In the diamond sky (in the diamond sky)

These diamonds last forever



Is this going to be a long post? I think it is. but it's ok.

xD

Enjoy~~

Lyrics from AZlyrics. and I did not prove read those lyrics xP

Oops I did Again

Happy National Day to all Bruneians!

and it's been almost a month since I last posted here.

I swear I have no excuse.

LOL

So to start of,
I finally received my POET | ARTIST album.

Received within 3 weeks after placing my ordered.
I thought that I was gonna cry when I listened to the album in my car. Yes, I ripped open the plastic wrap as soon as I got into my car. LOL patient is not my virtue. 
I didn't cry. but I guess it's only because I've already listened to the album digitally.
(side note: to me, there's different feelings when listening to your songs; digitally (which includes Youtube), physical CD, and thru the Radio. I can't explain this into words. to me they're just different).

Are you ready for story time? :)

Now, SHINee just had their 
SHINee World 2018 The Best ~ From Now On ~ concert at Kyocera Dome, Osaka, Japan on 17th & 18th Feb.

I was never one to live stream any of SHINee concerts. I have never bother searching for a link to live streams.
I especially cautious of that this time around.
Only because, I knew there'll be lots of tears.

and man, was I right!

I avoided Instagram (my current source of Kpop news :P) for a few hours on the 17th as the concert began.
but late at night, I opened IG and already reading tons from both the fanaccount I followed and from my explore page.
I felt that tuck in my heart again.
I saw a clip of Onew barely keeping it together. from then on, I chose not to open any video and scrolled up fast when a video started playing.

I listened to two new Japanese songs and they're both nice ballads. but of course yg ku dangar atu not full version. when one of the member's voice waver or stopped singing, i skipped that video coz I know I couldn't continue listening.
*deep breath*
anyway,
the next day happened. I finally brave myself to listen to the closing song. Jonghyun voice was included.
and I shed a few tears.
It wasn't even a long video. not even 1 minute. but seeing the 4 of them like that, so kesian. 
:'(

So, when 18th Feb concert started, I was ok to watch and read fanaccounts.
and when they said SHINee members were hyper during performing hype songs, I smiled too.
I said to myself, "they are gona be ok".
BUT
ballad songs happened and they started crying again and my heart ache again.
SIGH

Well, that's the end of my storytelling.

I decided that, this year, supporting SHINee will be very tough.

I mean, of course, I will support them in any ways I can, but it will be very difficult for my heart.

I mean, how do you handle this?

. . .

since I already take picture

I ordered this album on Dec 5th 2017. and received them on 27th Dec.
Imagine how I was feeling on the 18th Dec.
"but I just ordered his album"

Yesung 1st Mini Album

I really like his entire mini album.

the music is really my style.

I didn't expect it to be.

just like when I started to listen to Taeyeon's 1st Mini Album. I thought that I would hate but I didn't.

my surprised is not without base.

when Kyuhyun's mini albums came out, I only ever like 1 song from each mini album.

when Ryeowook's mini solo album came out, i like a few songs.
So, when Yesung dropped his mini solo album, I thought my hype for it would be the same as I did the other two.

but like I said, I was surprised when I heard the first released song.

Here I Am

mcm stalking jua lirik nya ani. hahah baru baca when I want to post this. LOL
and kenapa ya mesti bali plant? of all the things yg bini2 atu suka hahaha

Ok. stalk-ish (funny) lyric aside,
isn't his voice just *insert 'the boom' icon here* ???

a little background story before I share you another few songs

K.R.Y. (Kyuhyun. Ryeowook. Yesung.) is a sub-unit of SuJu whose main song releases are ballads.
and all three of them is like the senpai of amazing male vocals of SM!
well, not really. there are Changmin, Junsu, Yunho of DBSK. to name a few.
but since I wasn't aware of DBSK vocalists back when I was obsessing over SuJu, lets not go there.

anyway, KRY is like the platform of amazing vocalist of SM!
after that came Jonghyun and Onew of SHINee (not gonna explain myself why Onew was mentioned after Jonghyun coz I love their voices on two different levels)
then baru tah came the EXO vocalists; Bacon, DO, Chen. (I think Luhan should be in this list too but seeing as he is no longer EXO)

what I'm trying to say, K.R.Y. has a lot of practice to get to where they are now. Vocally. I'm no expert but theirs are per.fect.ion.

Continuing on~

let's share a duet now.

first up, with Dalchong of CHEEZE. Spring In Me.


I don't know who she is but her voice is very nice.
and this song is like that time, after all the heartaches and this song promises a new beginning.
or something.
my hearteu~

second up, feat Chanyeol of EXO. Confession.


I know. cChanel *fangirling*
noh. not really.
I was always clapping when this song plays. rupanya it's a cute confession song. or trying to confess.
still very the cute

I would love to share all the songs here
but this next one would be the last song that I'm gona share here

it's call Your Echo


I'm telling you, I only learn the translated lyrics while doing this post and I cried during this one.
I guess I have a hunch yg it's sad song but I didn't think it'd be this sad! what the hell Yesungie?!

as mentioned, that would be last song shared here.
If your internet is as awesome as mine, this page will take longer to load.
hahaha ha

but your internet is the awesome-st in town, you should click the link in the videos to listen to the rest of the songs with Eng Sub.

I bet SuJu's future concerts gonna be really long coz they have alot of solos out now to add up to their list of SuJu songs as a whole. (the KRY, EunHae duo)

I would definitely go if was still a 'fanatic' elf. Lucky for me that I'm a 'fanatic' Shawol now.
but I wouldn't mind going to another SMTown concert.
sigh. I miss SMTown.

*clap once*

alrighty,
that is all I have for you guys tonight.
hope you enjoy all the cool (although some are sad) songs.
See you on the next post
ciao~
