Ah! holiday today! FANTASTIC!
should take this opportunity to regenerate and finish up all homeworks (:
hope the day won’t come to a waste (:
It’s been a long while since i posted, and i posted this late because of my exams (which are over alr!).
I have never expected this day. I would even think thrice before listening to Girls Generation’s (a.k.a SNSD) songs. Hahaha.
But after listening to Tell Me Your Wish a week before the album’s release.. the song successfully converted an anti-fan into an avid fan (:
I used to think with such a large group, what goods can they produce? Singing would be not in-sync, dancing would be messy, etc. But after listening to their hit Gee, and then now Genie, I have been proven totally wrong. haha.
2nd Mini-Album - Genie
#1. Tell Me Your Wish (Genie) ★★★★★★
Download Tell Your Wish (Genie)
This song ‘converted’ me. It has been exactly 2 weeks since I downloaded this, and I have been hooked onto it until now. And my play count went to 43 after just 2 days. What more can I say? 6 stars upon 5. Oh, and the dance is a must-watch.
#2. Etude ★★★★★
A very catchy and pleasant to the ears song. Bravo!
#3. Girlfriend
The starting of the song sounds a little like the 90s. The melody rhythm and everything else. hahaha. Don’t really know why, just felt as though it’s an classic pop song. But the song is pretty catchy.
#4. Boyfriend
Not a fan of this.
#5. Fairytale (My Child)
Hmm.. A pretty fun-to-listen song. But generally the song is a little too children-like for me. After all the title’s Fairytale. haha. The feel I get from this song is pretty similar to Younha’s Alice, which is based on “Alice on the Wonderland” (duh).
#6. One Year Later (SNSD’s Jessica & SHINee’s Onew) ★★★★★
AH! One of my favourites from this album. I think I know why Jessica’s picked for this duet, instead of the other 8. Listen and you’ll know too (: haha. She has an exceptionally sweet and appealing voice, no wonder she’s still popular despite her seemingly arrogant/cocky image.
I hardly listens to SHINee’s songs (actually never – other than Stand By Me), but Onew has certainly caught my attention. His voice is really very soothing and unique, and reminds me of ballad singer Sung Si Kyung (this fella’s vocals is truely amazing) very much. Even their voices sound very alike!
Check their cool individual shots (:

i find it quite amusing, when SNSD and SuJu decided to take on each other’s hit song.
SNSD’s cover of Sorry Sorry (originally by Super Junior)
Super Junior’s cover of Gee (originally by SNSD)
Way Back Into Love by Donghae, Kyuhyun (SuJu); Taeyeon and Jessica (SNSD)
two thumbs + 2 toes up! stellar harmonising and quadruplet!
Totally impressive.
I’m beginning to get interested in this show Music Travel LaLaLa. Performances and exotic and uniquely interesting, showing a greater extent of the KPop singers’ musicality side – which I totally like.
Younha has performanced in it a couple of times (except for “Gee”, the videos won’t work – YT took them out :( , each time coming out with beyond stellar performances. Think I should really check the show out (:
SNSD’s Tell Me Your Wish [edited: 26 June 2009]
Oh my, what more can i say about this song. I was definitely not a SNSD fan, but after this song..
Marine concept
I think the concept of marine which combines sophistication and cuteness is totally appealing. Don’t you think so too?
After being accused of “war crimes” following the album cover’s release, SNSD responded by removing controversial details from the original cover.
Totally addictive and catchy tune (:
argh, can’t get the song outta my head. haha.
Super Junior’s It’s You
And for once, I have to admit, this song from Super Junior is pretty awesome. It’s You is a million miles better than Sorry Sorry. – Wondersmurf of YT
I second that. I’m not a SuJu fan, but I think this’ a brilliant song.
8eight’s My Love
Features Kim So Eun of BOF and Jung Jin Woon of 2AM.
The MV is pretty cheesy, I feel. Oh, btw 8eight and Se7en are not related at all. LOL.
SNSD’s HaHaHa
Girls’ Generation are the featured models for Samsung’s second HaHaHa campaign where they hope to encourage people to laugh/smile despite the hard times. Figure skater Kim Yuna and idol group DBSK were the previous models. – Wondersmurf of YT

Nobody wants to hear Wondergirls’ in English, especially if they are going to sound like this.

Wondergirls debut in America
Oh my, after Rain, Se7en and BoA and many more, the floodgate has been flung open. Of course, i’m refering to the Korean-artistes-breaking-into-the-Amercan-market gate. After Rain and company, singers like Son Dambi joined in the gang. And now Wondergirls have officially broken into the angmoh market.
English names for the Wondergirls
Unlike other Korean celebs who entered the US market, WG decided to pick english names for themselves (probably to ensure easy remembrance of names). Sun-ye, the leader is now known as “Sun”, Ye-eun “Yenny”and Sun-mi “Mimi”. Yu-bin and So-hee however decided to retain their Korean names.
Best of luck, WG. Nevertheless, let’s see how long these ambitious musicians can last in the American market.
after months of preparations and meetings and proposals and…, the camp’s finally here.
but this means’ i’m gonna miss my lessons in school from tuesday to friday, and the Moscow State Chamber Choir on thursday. oh dear.
nevertheless, i’ll get to kayak during my dept’s sea activity for 2 sessions! yeah man. (:
and i’m finally done with the puzzle! haha.
I bought a ticket for the Thursday, 11th june, concert.
BUT
i realised i’ll be away for a camp from 9th to the 12th of june. dang.
it’s pretty last minute, but i’ll be giving it away.
friends, text me if you want it. MSCC is a pretty good choir (:
by monday please, cos i’ll be away frm tuesday onwards. (:

haven’t been posting for donkey days. has been either very busy or very lazy. same goes for the photograph of the week section. no drive to blog these days. sigh.
but today finally theres a post! hahaha
and its abt the LTC Trainers Part 1& 2.
090523 LTC Trainers’ Camp Part 1
almost couldn’t make it for the day camp in JBACampsite, which is at Choa Chu Kang. super far. had to go to school before that for my choir commitee interview (:
anyway, it was a totally exhausting day. once i reach the campsite at abt 1++, it was my dept’s, the Sea Activity Dept, segment.
天不作美,it started to rain pretty heavily while waiting for the sub-comm members (the trainees/campers of the day). as a result, the kayaks couldnt launch at the planned time.
at abt 2+, the kayaks were finally ready to launch!
but.
sigh, the sole of my water shoe came off (points blaming finger at nike shoes). managed to keep one sole, while another one got stuck in the mud underwater during the water-confidence test. haha..
after waiting for so long, finally it was time for kayak! me and sub-comm member amanda paired up for a double-seater kayak. nonetheless, the sea activity was still relatively well-carried out in the end, disorganization aside.
after sea act was field-cooking (F&B Dept’s turn), before Sungeria’s Night Act. by the end of the activities, i was dead beat. headed back to dunman at 9+, where we had the de-briefing and stuff.
and i still had a warehouse of homework to be done. although i managed to complete all in the end. haha.
090530 LTC Trainers’ Camp Part 2
this part kicked off in dunman, before ending in Pulau Ubin, where the ‘not-orienteering-not-CIP-but-SL’ orienteering took place.
started with GA Dept’s general activites (haha), before learning the instructors’ mass dance. cool but simple dance. haha. (:
the comm then proceeded to changi jetty, before crossing the sea over to Pulau Ubin for Sunergia’s section.
KFC-ed after it all ended. wow. KFC never tasted so nice before. (actually it did, right after SYFs back in my dmn days. hahah)
END
WHOA SUPER SIAN.
tomorrow’s Arsenal’s EPL clash against Man Utd’s at 8pm,
and the “Proof” play at the DBS building i’m watching is also at 8pm!
7 years ago, Arsenal beat Man Utd in Old Trafford (Man Utd’s home grnd) to lift the EPL trophy. Arsenal fans have been cheering singing chanting, “We won the league in Manchester!” everytime these 2 teams meet.
Now, Man Utd is just 1 point away from winning the league, and Arsenal will host Man Utd for tmr’s match. Man Utd players & fans will surely want to see Man Utd win the league in Arsenal’s homeground. Its time for revenge, it seems, for Man Utd.
SO, how can miss such a BIG MATCH!? ARGHHHHHHHH
ARGHHH CANT BELIEVE MY LUCK.
巧 until like this

I watched this vid abt a month back, and it didn’t really impacted me, until yesterday.
Just scroll down to the Younha videos and you’ll notice, none of them can be viewed anymore. One simple reason, the account of that particular user whom I’ve been taking the vids frm, is suspended. Another user, CodeAnalysis (those Korean music fans will know), has also got his/her warning and the account will be terminated in a few days time.
Yes, YouTube may cite copyrighting reasons, but how about the other users who’re doing the same? Apparently, YT is trying to get rid of these major accounts which are distributing popular videos. Why? As mentioned in the video above, YT is gradually removing YOU from YT.
Watch the following video.
Wonderful performances by Younha, as usual. haha.
Like her cover of SNSD’s Gee.
★★★★★ out of 5!
Enjoy(:
