I am an INFP

I took two personality tests and found out I am an INFP. The personality type describe me perfectly. It is quite creepy, really. According to 16personalities.com, I am extremely creative, innovative, and goal-oriented.

 

As much as I liked my strengths, I dislike my weaknesses equally. I have known my own weaknesses long before I took the test. I kept on thinking whether there is something wrong with me. Then, the result from the test make sense. I decided to change my weaknesses slowly to meet my own needs. These weaknesses admittedly caused enough trouble in my life. I have had enough of that.

Too altruistic. I will care about myself more.

Dislike dealing with data. I will try to like data.

Difficult to get to know. I won't change this, though. Life taught me to trust no one.

Take many things personally.  I will deal with matters on its merits. Be more rational.

May be too idealistic. I will be more down-to-earth.

Impractical. I will be more practical.

I am going to revise a way to improve myself. Update later.

ANDAMIRO(안다미로) _ HYPNOTIZE MV

I came upon Andamiro's Hypnotize MV accidentally. I have watched and listened so many others kpop MV and I found Andamiro's is something quite different. I was like, finally something new. I like her voice. She debuted in 2012 under Trophy Entertainment.

All those news I read about T-ara

Within a few days, tons of news appeared in regards of Hwayoung's departure from popular korean girls' group T-ara. Many people are commenting about it. Some people are taking sides while some are being neutral. The aggressive ones even destroyed their T-ara's CD and posted it online. I just started to take notice to T-ara and start to follow their news when everything happens. 

Most of the news are being told by third party. So, it's kind of hard to believe in any of them. You never know who is right and who is wrong. But if all the bullying is truth, then T-ara deserves the punishment. Bullying is definitely not a good thing, especially if you are in a popular girl group. It's not that I am saying bullying is okay if you are not in a girl band. It's just that people tend to notice it more if an idol do the bullying. Plus, Idols are supposed to set a good example. They should have known it will affected their career in entertainment industry, or worse, ended it.

Assuming T-ara is the bully as claimed by netizens and shown in some so-called-proof(I'll just assume first since I don't live with T-ara, I don't know their real personalities and I didn't see the bullying-__-), how come T-ara didn't know that their deeds will eventually leaked out and destroy their image. Many people called T-ara 'fake' and nasty names after the bullying scandal broke out. There are also many on-lookers with popcorn sitting in front their laptop reading the news as can be seen in some comments from other sites. If T-ara thinks that it's okay for them to bully Hwayoung just because they are more famous and popular than her, how very wrong they are. Now, Hwayoung is getting all the sympathy from people. No people can condemn bullying.

As far as I know about Hwayoung, she is only added into T-ara after they debuted and she is just with them for 20 months. Initially, fans are against the addition of new member. And Hwayoung is doing her best to get along with the other girls. However, from the rumors, all of the girls outcasted Hwayoung, except Qri. Qri is the only girl not getting all the hate from people and she is said to be the only friend of Hwayoung. The CEO of CCM is also at fault. Let us think from T-ara's point of view. T-ara has been working hard during their debut to get all the fame and fans while Hwayoung is only added into the group after their success. I won't blame T-ara for feeling uncomfortable about it. It's just like Hwayoung getting all those fame they work hard for in an easy way. But, it's not Hwayoung's fault that she is added into the group, the decision is made by the CEO. CEO of CCM should have think twice before he made the decision. If you are saying T-ara is not acting professionally, well, can I say that Idols are human and they have flaws too?

P/S: It's just my opinion, you can ignore it.=D

Wonder Girls "The DJ Is Mine" MV + Lyrics

                   

Wonder Girls "The DJ is Mine" is their new US single, featuring School Gyrls. Wonder Girls' pronunciation are better in this MV. However, SoHee didn't seems to pronounce well, guess it's her accent. This song is really nice, I have been listening to it for a dozen times. I have to say: Good job, Wonder Girls! Here is the lyrics:

[YENNY]
He is mine
Im the only thing on his mind
He thinks about me all the time
He got my love on rewind

[SOHEE]
Nobody treats him like I do
Theres no party if im not in the booth
My song keeps his heart in tune like bada dadada dadumdum
He loves me and I love him too
He plays me all the night through
He keeps me spinning and grinning
I'm winning him over from you singing lalalalalala

[LIM]
Everyday lalalalalala he sings with me lalalalalala
He knows me he holds from intro to fade

[SUNNY/SUNYE]
Cuz the dj is mine and girl you're wasting your time
He only rocks to my music he loves the way I do it all night
The dj is mine
My baby my my baby baby ( the dj is mine)
My baby my my baby baby
He rocks to my music he loves the way I do it all night
The dj is mine

[LAUREN]
Girl please don't you even try
My baby keeps me by his side
Even though you keep giving him the eyes
He don't even notice

[MONICA]
Everyday lalalalalala he sings with me lalalalalala
He knows me he holds from intro to fade

[LAUREN]
Cuz the dj is mine and girl you're wasting your time

He only rocks to my music he love the way I do it all night
[YENNY]
Cuz the dj is is mine and girl your wasting your time
He only rocks to my music he love the way I do it all night
The dj is mine

[SADE]
I'm what he's listening to I'm blasting through his head phones
Its me he falling in love with yeah I got his head gone (head gone)
He cant even answer the phone my music keeps turning him on n on n on n on n on

[YUBIN]
He say she say I say I own the dj
Stay at on top of the charts I am the air play
Flyer then airplanes
I know you hear me in case you didn't let let me reiterate
Let me re let me re let me reiterate

He is mine
Im the only thing on his mind
He thinks about me all the time
He got my love everywhere

[SUNNY/SUNYE]
Cuz the dj is mine and girl you're wasting your time
He only rocks to my music he love the way I do it all night

[NATALIE]
Cuz the dj is mine and girl you're wasting your time
He only rocks to my music he love the way I do it all night
The dj is mine

[SUNNY/SUNYE]
My baby my my baby baby ( the dj is mine)
My baby my my baby baby
He only rocks to my music he love the way I do it all night
The dj is mine

Lovely Complex

Lovely Complex is a romantic comedy shoujo anime. I am having so much fun watching this anime. I laughed so much at Risa Koizumi and Atsushi Otani's funny moments. Of course, other characters are funny as well. This anime is about a girl with 172cm height falls in love with a boy with 156cm height. The tall girl is Risa Koizumi while the short boy is Atsushi Otani. Despite being rejected for twice, Risa's friend, Nobuko Ishihara keeps on offering Risa advice regarding the issue of love and encouraged her too. 

There is something different in the japanese used in this anime. So, I went to google it. It's Kansai-ben they are using. No wonder it's different from the japanese I usually hear in other anime. All Kansai-ben in one anime are kind of rare for an anime, isn't? Anyway, I still love this anime. There are scenes where Risa got rejected and felt heart broken which almost make my tears falling. Luckily Risa recovered quickly and get back to her lively personality. Since I am not good in sad story,  I can't stand an anime with too many sad chapters, but not Lovely Complex. Good for Love Com.  

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood

This is my favorite anime of all time. I have been watching this for a dozen time.*No kidding.* I preferred the new version of Fullmetal Alchemist, that is Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. Brotherhood are based on the manga, which is more interesting.*In my own opinion.* More amazing and cool characters are introduced in Brotherhood. I especially like the battle between human and homunculus. It's totally awesome. Homunculus is a humanoid created by human. It is forbidden in the practice of alchemy, of course. However, someone created 7 of them and given them by the name of 7 sins. Just some random thought, among the homunculus, the ability of Pride and Wrath are the coolest.*Again, it's my own opinion.*

The beginning of the anime is a bit same like the previous one. Then the plot will be unfolded to a complicated, carefully designed plan. The Father of the Homunculus takes the appearance of the father of Elric brothers. Edward's father is a philosopher's stone in human form in some way. Homunculus's father intended to use the Amestris nation's people 's soul to make a highly energized philosopher's stone in order to contain the God. Of course, after Edward discovered the evil plan of the Father, he wanted to stop it and at the same time get back his limbs and Alphonse's body. 

It's a happy ending. So, no pressure watching Brotherhood. Enjoy^^

Lucky Star

Konata is an otaku while Kagami is a realist. Konata filled her room with a bunch of anime figurine, posters and manga. She plays MMORPG too. Konata always borrowed homework from Kagami and pulling all nighters during exam and did surprisingly well each time, much to the annoyance of Kagami*Laugh*. The funny moment always occur when Konata is having fun by teasing Kagami. Tsukasa and Kagami are twin but their personalities are completely different. Kagami does pretty well in exam, always finish schoolwork in time, never procrastinate, a tsundere*claims by Konata*, bad in cooking, eat much*Konata's favorite teasing phase* and a little bit inclination towards fujoshi? while Tsukasa is soft, less aggressive, sleep much, like to procrastinate, cooks well, does not scores well in exam, depend on her older sister Kagami. Meanwhile, Miyuki is a know-it-all and a soft girl with glass. Konata is always called her a moe factor.

 

This anime focus much on the daily life of japanese high school students. Some will call this boring. But i found this anime quite suitable for pleasure watching, without pressure.

Gintama

I have finished Gintama recently. This is the first anime I found quite different from the rest. Gintama, you can say, is random. The story arcs are never the same. It's funny and entertaining. You won't have any problem watching them for the fun of it. You really can't judge the characters by the look of it. For example, Kagura is the first cute anime girl character to dig her nose 'in the public'.*At least I think so.* Then, there is Sougo, the king of the sadist. He tries to kill Toushiro, failed though. *I don't think he meant it^_^* Characters in the anime included a masochist(Sa-chan), a stalker/Gorilla(Kondo), alien, a madao*you will understand this term after watch the anime*, a mayannaise lover(Toushiro) and ...many else. So, have fun^^

SISTAR 씨스타_So Cool_Music Video [HD]

I have been into this group after I watched their latest MV. I really liked the song. I have been listening to their song for a few dozen times. Everything about this MV is awesome, included their dances, vocal and concept. They are really energetic and strong. And I like it. I watched some of their live performance too. They have a pretty good live, I have to say.

Sarcastic Quotes

Steve Jobs Quotes

""When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.""

KARA - STEP MV

New KARA MV! The song is quite nice and butt dance is KARA's signature dance move. Enjoy^^ Some people "argued" that KARA's yellow and black costumes in this MV is similar to SNSD's MR Taxi. Well, I don't know about you. My eyesight are good enough to see there are no similarity of their costumes. Why in the world people loves to compare all korean girls' bands to SNSD? No offense, I like SNSD too, but I am sick of people keep on comparing girls' bands to SNSD. Aren't there any better things to do, guys?

Life is a Gift

Today before you say an unkind word
Think of someone who can`t speak.

Before you complain about the taste of your food
Think of someone who has nothing to eat.

Today before you complain about your life
Think about someone who went too early to heaven.

Before you argue about your dirty house someone didn`t clean or sweep
Think of people who are living in the street

Before whining about the distance you drive
Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet

And when you tired and complain about your job
Think about the unemployed,the disabled, and those who wish they had your job

But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning about your job
Remember that not one of us is without error,we will all answer to GOD

And when depressing thoughts seems to get down
PUT A SMILE ON YOUR FACE AND THANK GOD YOU`RE ALIVE AND STILL AROUND

GOD WILL GIVE THE BURDEN ONLY FOR THOSE WHO SUIT WITH IT.
