YELLOW! :D (I'm sure those of you who frequents this blog often enough would know that that's my form of greeting)
Anyway, moving on to happier news! 2NE1 has released their first teaser for their new single, 'Hate You'. I'm not too sure what to comment about it yet since the snippet is wayyyy too short (can you sense my 2ne1 deprivation?). So I guess I'll have to wait until the 2nd teaser that will be released on the 28th of July to decide :)
I love the last line from the teaser though, "I'm fine living without you". WORD!
HEY GUYS! :D How has your week been? Was it something like, "Its been a really, really messed up week. Seven days of torture, seven days of bitter?" (that's part of the lyrics, btw) AHAHAHA. So, like I've said before, Youtube has amazingly talented people who never fails to amaze me and the best part about the video is that they're enjoying themselves. That's what really matters, right? :) This song is currently stuck in my head and I knew I just had to share it with you all. So, anyway, this cover was done by Tyler Ward, Alex G and Eppic. They did such a great job!
HOLLA, GUYS! :D
Yes, I know my updates are WAYYYYY overdue but I haven't really been in the 'Blogging Mood' the past few days. For the past many days actually. ahahah. So, in order to cheer you up, I've found this old video of Big Bang's visit to the theme park. They wore masks to conceal their identity but it definitely can't hide craziness! They looked like hyper little kids running around the place in utter happiness.
Ello! :D As you guys can see, the lack of updates indicate that I'm back to my lifeless schedules. The second semester of college just started last Monday and I'm already begging for a breather! I regret not touching my books during my holidays, as it was proven highly NECESSARY. Our lecturers assumed that the knowledge gained in the first semester was locked in our brains but boyyy were they wrong! I guess I just have to work twice as hard this semester in order to score my A's (don't we always say that?). And the other frustrating thing is that I stay a minimum of 8 hours in college from Monday to Thursday! It makes me feel like I'm back in school :( So that kinda sucks.
But anyway, to release some of my stress (and most probably yours), let's watch Ryan Higa's video, the 'Teehee Band'. It's definitely gonna make you go TEEHEE after the video! :D
YES, YOU'VE READ RIGHT!
The second Hennessy Artistry for Year 2011 has arrived! And I don't know if it's just a coincidence but it always seem to happen when I want a night to let loose and chill. Taking place in Mist Club,Bangsar on the 9th of July this time around, I'm sure it's going to be bigger and better than the last.
Performers Beautiful Beat Girls, Trimix and Reshmonu will be attending as well.
If you're not excited about that, think about the free flow of their four signature Hennessy V.S.O.P long drinks which would definitely tickle your taste buds. (Don't forget to appoint a designated driver for the night!)
Still not convinced? Its famed interactive platform, the Hennessy Mixing Zone will also mark its return and will feature four fun, engaging and experiential zones:
Hennessy Mixing Bar – a bar where fans will be taught how to mix any of the four signature Hennessy V.S.O.P long drinks (Hennessy Citrus, Hennessy Berry, Hennessy Ginger, and Hennessy Apple)
Hennessy Music Mix Synth — where revellers will be given the chance to create their own tunes by selectively choosing to place 15 circular cubes on a react table (each cube represents a different music element, i.e: guitar, drums, etc) to allow them to experience the true meaning of “The Global Art of Mixing” through the blending of their very own tunes.
Hennessy iMix Challenge – an area where party-goers can try their hands at Hennessy’s newly developed iPad game which requires guests to slice up ingredients which are found in Hennessy V.S.O.P’s signature long drinks. The top 5 high scores screened on an LCD leaderboard will each take home a bottle of limited edition Hennessy V.S.O.P Helios.
Hennessy Interactive Photowall – a green screen photography area where revellers can enhance their photos digitally by choosing and inserting different visual backgrounds and shout out phrases.
You can also always check out my experience from the past Hennessy Artistry HERE
Since PJ is currently homesick and going through a rough time, I'd like to dedicate this post to her. I hope she'll find strength in these words and be able to carry on. You know I'm always here for you :) Fighting! <3
Thought this song might help :)
Seconds, hours, so many days You know what you want but how long can you wait? Every moment lasts forever When you feel you've lost your way And what if my chances were already gone? Started believing that I could be wrong But you gave me one good reason To fight and never walk away
So here I am still holding on!
With every step you climb another mountain
Every breath it's harder to believe
You make it through the pain, weather the hurricanes
To get to that one thing
Just when you think the road is going nowhere
Just when you almost gave up on your dreams
They take you by the hand and show you that you can
You can go higher, you can go deeper
There are no boundaries above and beneath you
Break every rule 'cause there's nothing between you and your dreams
With every step you climb another mountain
Every breath it's harder to believe You make it through the pain, weather the hurricanes
To get to that one thing
Just when you think the road is going nowhere
Just when you almost gave up on your dreams
They take you by the hand and show you that you can There are no boundaries! There are no boundaries!
There are no boundaries!
There are no boundaries! There are no boundaries!
And you know how quotes always inspire us in times like this. So, here's a few for you :D
'When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.'
-Franklin D. Roosevelt-
'Don't give up. There are too many nay-sayers out there who will try to discourage you. Don't listen to them. The only one who can make you give up is yourself.'
-Sidney Sheldon-
'Nothing could be worse than the fear that one had given up too soon, and left one unexpected effort that might have saved the world.
-Jane Adams-
I was supposed to post about Boohwal & Immortal Song II but since you're more important, this post shall go up first! :) 사랑해! <3
With someone's voice. Love is never how it seems, eh? ahaahah. I just discovered someone really talented on Youtube and I felt that it would be such a waste if I didn't share this with you guys :)
The only thing that I know is that his name is Kevin Oh and I'm soooooo in love with his voice right now. When I first saw his video through a friend, I totally didn't expect to be mesmerized to this degree. But you know what they say, life is unpredictable. So here I am, wanting to convince you that I think Kevin's a real jewel.
Are all Youtubers this talented? I mean, JRA, AJ Rafael, AHMIR, David Choi, Kina Grannis, Clara C and the list goes on and on and on were discovered from youtube. This just goes to show that the world is indeed filled with many talented people. We just gotta know where to look :p
I wonder how Kevin feels though, having so many worshipers and marriage proposals, he must be flattered? It's funny, isn't it? How someone can be living at the other end of the world and yet still make me admire him so. I've read a lot of comments about how he should be signed with a label and produce his own album and blablbalbalba, but there's a part of me that's thankful his videos aren't going viral on youtube. Not that I think he's not talented enough to be signed, I just feel that sometimes being famous would make you lose yourself. And I'd hate it if he was forced to sing songs that he doesn't like. Okay okay, and maybe cause when he's not TOO FAMOUS, he feels almost reachable to me. At least, he's just a normal guy. You know?
Anyway, enough with the babbling. Here's the MAIN REASON why this post was created; his voice will win you over. Honestly. If it doesn't, go see a doctor! Listen to them with your headphones :)
This was the first video I watched. It made me WANT to dream a little dream of him. Ahahah! What a voice, right?
This song really tugged at my heartstrings because I have seen the rain come down on a sunny day. And sometimes when that happens, you just gotta embrace it and then move on with life.
If I'm not mistaken, 'Dirty Psalm' was one of his own creations and I thought it was just gonna be of him playing his guitar. Even with that, I was already mesmerized. But when he started to sing, with his soulful voice and those sincere eyes, I was really amazed. In my opinion, he should definitely complete the song :)
And last but not least, 'My Favorite Things' from the The Sound of Music. I love this song! And gummy bears! ahahah. It's just awesome how he's capable of making me love this song more than I already did.
Hope you enjoyed it!
If there's ever an opportunity, I'm sure it would be great to hear him sing live! :D
