4 Years with SHINee [Kpop]

So it's SHINee's 4th year since debut. I don't have anything prepared just a simple graphic and a few words so this won't be going under a read more.

SHINee are a group that mean a lot to me. Their members are inspiring, heart-warming, caring & brilliant people. They all have their strengths and their flaws. I'm grateful to know this group as they have brought me so many smiles and tears since I've known them & I can only hope they continue to SHINe brightly as five together for many more years to come. SHINee, Thank You

それから [KPOP/JPOP] [IMG HEAVY]

Today is Thursday. And that means a new post. I plan to post at least once a week blah blah blah you know what I'm talking about. It's time to finally show you guys what CDs and stuff I got recently. I've been putting this post off for a while simply because 1) I had let GoEun take my CDs to load them into her iTunes and 2) I was waiting for my Taemin card to arrive - AND IT DID TODAY! Which is ultra perfect timing. I just want to thank Charlene SO MUCH for trading with me! I hope she's happy with her Minho card~

This is the only photobooth picture here, promise!

Under the read more is all the picturely goodness~

Thumbs Up! [KPOP]

So I had to buy Thumbs Up. I did. I really did. And so... I did. I bought it and a few other things from YesAsia. Luckily at the same time Boyfriend were releasing their new minialbum (which I got an autographed version of) and then to get free shipping I bought a K-Drama. It all fell into place nicely there, didn't it? Shame the exchange rate for Sterling to Dollars is screwing me over at the moment. The exchange isn't as good as it was earlier in the year. Ah well. I have a video edited to show off what I got and I plan to take a few pictures tomorrow when the daylight is still around. I left it a little late today unfortunately, woops. Sorry about that.

Minwoo's Autograph!

However, I will have pictures of my goodies up tomorrow so consider that a cheeky bonus. Video under the read more!

It's been a while... [KPOP]

It's been far too long since my last update. I'd like to pretend that for once, yes I was being lazy but nope! I've been so busy with school work and trying to get on top of things here in Nebraska. I've been very social and not really taking time to be extremely active online. If you have me added on facebook you'll get snippets and updates on what has been going on there. If not, I'll try and take the time to update something here but for now I want to talk about music. In particular ...2? No... 4? CDs I have. Truthfully, three are the same CD (thanks for that SM Ent) of SHINee's Japanese release of LUCIFER (all three editions). I've already done a slapdash box opening for youtube but I wanted to take some nice pictures and update my blog for you lovely people. Also, GoEun's mother was kind enough to purchase and send to her Kara's 2nd album STEP (Special edition no less!), so I've taken a few pictures of it as well. I wanted to test out my macro zoom lens some, since I have it, and so there are a few pictures taken with it.

Look I got plushies! [JPOP] [KPOP]

So today in the mail I got plushies I had custom made. One for myself of Junno and the other of Joon from MBLAQ's Oh Yeah era for my biffleface Merry. They arrived within two days of being shipped and the overall cost for them together was good. Including shipping, I'm extremely pleased. The person who made them, Summer, is incredibly lovely and amazing to work with. She's truly a wonderful person who deserves ever customer she gets - not to mention how fast she is! You can visit her shop here and please support her!

I don't have a lot of pictures. At a later date I may or may not take more pictures. I'm awaiting the arrival of more stuff so I can wrap together Merry's present and send it (in time, I hope) to her for her birthday. Under the read more are all the pictures (4 in total I think...) that I took.

It's My Soul! [JPOP/MISC]

After complaining about not blogging on twitter and then reading Claudia's post, I realised that some of us don't update a lot during the summer. Even looking at my archives, I blogged more during May than any other time. Maybe because I just used it as a coping mechanism (I prefer that term than procrastination~). Regardless, this has turned into a blog where I talk less about myself and more about things I buy. This shows two things about me, I hate talking about myself and I think the stuff I buy says more about me than I could myself. Wow. Mouthful.

It's been a while... [KPOP/JPOP/BJD]

Hi guys sorry I haven't updated much. Actually, A LOT has happened since I last blogged. I got my macbook pro, Ash is coming back now from his faceup with Meggilu and I got more CDs! -rejoices- Part of which is also Clair's birthday present which I now need to wrap. I'm totally going to make a video of that to prove to her that I wrap presents myself muwhaha. I've also gotten a load more DVDs. So once I watch a few of the Asian ones, I'll make a post/video about those!

So I make box opening videos of CDs I get. It's kinda a 'thing' that started between me and David (twitter friend) after we found out people actually make box openings of... well... everything! It surprised me! I honestly thought it was just a BJD thing. So in the videos posted behind the read more cut thing, I have me opening two parcels of Kpop CDs, going through and talking a bit about Kpop. I then show my CD collection, which is something I *think* Claudia asked me to do. She's a super cool VIP/Blackjack from Northern Ireland. You can follow her here (blog) and here (twitter). I'll also post the pictures Meggliu took of Ash! He looks AMAZING!

#SHINee3rdDebut [Kpop]

It's SHINee's third year since debut! I can't believe it! Times flies so quickly. My time as a shawol (SHINee fan; comes from SHINee World and pronounced as SHA Wol) isn't as long, only two years next month! I find it amazing that the Taemin Cheering Towel I ordered arrived today as well! More pictures under the cut!

Not Doll related?! Eeeeh?!

Yup, you read it. This is one post that isn't doll related. I wouldn't say its connected to another hobby, since I don't think of myself as much as part of a hobby there than in the fandom. Its to do with Jpop and Kpop! Since this might not interest a lot of people I'll shove it under a cut. There are pictures and everything!
