Dun (read:Money)

Having lots of money feels good, yeah? It would feel even better if its all yours! I sound so materialistic! Haha :)

No, those aren't mine.

Today is such a busy day. I had to distribute salary for almost 600 people in the company! My oh my! T'was really tiring!

And making things worst is the fact that I wasn't able to spend some time with MS today. *sigh* Although I had a 15-minute chat with him before going home(I really am aware of the conversation length as I was trying to prolong it even more. Too bad, his boss called him! haha) and promised to teach me all the functions of my D-Lux 4 starting tomorrow night! Yey!! ~!~

Anyong! Keke~~

Sharing the Night Together

Oh well, ex-miracle stayed for the night.

Drank a liter of JC (Jose Cuervo) by ourselves and you should know what happens next! *wink*

Although we really didn't talk about the status of our relationship, it was nice seeing ex-miracle again and spending some "quality time".

I have no words to describe as far as the relationship now is concerned. But whatever it is, I'm enjoying it!

Anyong! Keke~~

Hard to Say I'm Sorry?

Alright.. it's Friday today and it means a non-working day for everybody in the UAE. As you know, Friday and Saturday are the weekdays in Muslim countries.

Anyhow, what could be the biggest surprise you could get when you wake up in a beautiful non-working day?

Today, I had a big surprise. Ex-miracle was in the house for a visit and as of this writing, he is apparently still here. What is he doing in here? He should be in Greece right? Oh well, I need not to ask. I have no more right to mingle with his private affairs anyway.

Being the friends that we are, I welcomed him with a big smile on my face! haha.. I should be civil with him right. Our parting did not left bitterness in our hearts and parted out as friends( I suppose!)

So while on the living room, we sat down side by side while he was using one of my housemates' laptop. And out of the blue, he played Hard for Me to Say I'm Sorry by Chicago. I don't want to make a big fuss out of it but the lyrics of the song, could he be sending a meaning I'm supposed to grasp?

Hold me now

Its hard for me to say I'm sorry

I just want you to stay

And after all that we've been through

I will make it up to you

I promise to

And after all that's been said and done

You're just the part of me I can't let go

While listening to the song, I was all along sitting next to him. Am I supposed to feel something? And to make things a little more confusing, he played "You're the Inspiration" next which by the way is one of my most favorite songs.

Oh well, at the middle of the song, I stood up and went to my room to type this one on my blog.

I'll be updating as to what happens next later. For now, got to head back to the living room..

Catch ya later, calculAter! *_*

Anyong! Keke~~

Techie Aniyo! ~_~

I am not much of a "TECHIE".

I mean, for as long as my gadgets are working perfectly fine, I couldn't care less whether its software needs to be updated or what have you.

This morning, MS asked me if I already updated my Ipod to 2.2. I was like, what? Ok i see this pop-up message asking me to update my ipod every time I connect it to Itunes. But is it really much of a big deal to do so?

Anyway, when I told him that I haven't, he readily gave me his usb telling me that he downloaded the software update for me.

Awww, so sweet! *wink*

I know its just a petty thing. But the effort he exerted (if there really was an effort! haha), considering his Ipod touch is first generation while mine is second, is totally appreciated.

Thanks MS! :)

A Funny SMS

Last night, while lounging on my laptop watching my daily dose of K-drama, I got an SMS message that reads:

"Why your email ID is mjm_mangay?? Ah! martin john MONSTER mangay?? :)>"
The sender? MS Kwon.

I haven't sent back a reply, yet one more message was received - " :) HA HA HA..."

I know he was just trying to be funny and is on teasing mode so I just laughed it off. Moreso, he's not the humiliating type and he really doesn't mean what he said. (How can lovable me be a monster? hahaha.. I'm a lover not a fighter!)

So I answered back with the message: "Ahjussi(read:older guy), what does MS (his intials) mean? MicroSoft? Aniyo(read:no)!! Micho So(read:crazy)? Maybe! Haha :P"

His reply: "mjm Good night yo(a respect word added by Koreans at the end of their sentences) :P"

But the funnier thing is, I think it took him about forever to construct his first message! Hahaha..

Anyway, I'm giving him a 10 for the effort -- for making me laugh and for the sentence construction! (.**.)

GQ Korea's Man of the Year

Oh my! GQ Korea has just announced that their Man of the Year is (drumroll please!!!) TAE YANG!

Yes. You read it right. It's none other than Tae Yang of Big Bang. But wait, can a 20 year old be considered as a MAN already?

Oh well who cares, it's Tae Yang anyway!

Excerpts from the GQ's interview:

On compliments and criticism:

GQ: Do you like receiving compliments?

TY: Sure. But I also like criticism.

GQ: Do you like criticism?
TY: I am used to getting reprimanded

GQ: So if you are used to it, then do you like it?

TY: It just means that they are interested and are thinking of me

On past love:

GQ: If you were able to go back into the past and had the chance to marry your first love, would you?

TY: No. The first woman you meet does not represent everything (in a woman).

GQ: So, who would want to be your first love?

TY: haha. Like the group, we work together in the same direction. For love it’s the same thing. At first it might not be so good, but as time passes, you will know.

On liking himself:

GQ: Do you like yourself:

TY: Not really. I’m pretty hard on myself..

Catch the full interview when GQ Korea December issue hits the stores next week.

Romantic Island

"To shed the tiresomeness of everyday reality, four strangers head to the island of Boracay, where dreams turn into reality, and experience a romance fluttering with excitement.”

A new Korean film is set to take its primary location in the pristine island of Boracay. Romantic Island, the film's title, is set to be released in time for the Christmas season. The cast features 2 well known Korean actors: Eugene (Save the Last Dance for Me, One Mom Three Dads) & Lee Seon Kyun (Choi Han Sung of The First Shop of Coffee Prince). Also included in the cast are Lee Soo Kyung & Lee Min Ki.

The plot of the movie hasn't been divulged yet but I pressume this would be a feel good movie with lots of cheesy and romantic moments (basing on the title.. duhh) considering that it will be shot in Boracay.

I was there a few months back and I totally fell in love with the place. I enjoyed so much that I wanted to stay a few days more. I was with my BEST friends from High School which made my stay even more memorable aside from the fact that Bora is really an enticing place.

Indeed, more and more people are being enchanted by this majestic place. Not to mention, a lot of them are Koreans as they were found all over the place (pun intended!) :) I just hope that the movie will capture the best Boracay has to offer so as to boost the tourism industry there. More foreigners mean more jobs for my kababayans! Yey!~~

Oh well let's just wait and see whether this movie will either be a hit or a miss!

Meanwhile, here are some of the tons of photos I have during my Bora adventure:

With BFF Chase. ^_^

Tae Yang - Look at Me (MV)

I think Rain is overrated and over-hyped. This guy from Big Bang is a lot more worth of the attention Rain is getting. The guy can sing & dance! His name -- Tae Yang.

Rough Translation of the Song:

I’ve been telling you everyday

I smile when I see you.

I’ve told you so many times

You’re the love of my life.

In this world full of lies, in my nervous heart

the one thing I believe in is you.

When you get nervous thinking that my feelings may change

Remember I laughed when I told you that would never happen.

A direction with no end,my completely empty heart

The only place I can lean on is you.

And I hate that my heart sometimes wavers

Even today I get carried away by the worldand you get erased

Even if I cheat

Don’t you ever cheat, Baby

Even if I forget you

Don’t you ever forget me, Lady

If once in a while I don’t contact youand I go out to drink

Even if I ever meet another girl’s gaze

Look only at me.

When you tell me with tears in your eyes

that you spent all night waiting up for meyou say “I think you changed.”

So many nights you ask me to tell you

that my feeling are the same as when I first met you.

Although it seems that I am miserable without you

Honestly sometimes you suffocate me

The never ending arguments

The long sighs.

Although the only place for you to lean is on me

I hate that sometimes I get sick of you

Even today I smileand lose myself without my knowledge

Even if I cheat

Don’t you ever cheat, Baby

Even if I forget you

Don’t you ever forget me, Lady

If once in a while I don’t contact you

and I go out to drink

Even if I ever meet another girl’s gaze

Look only at me.

I know well that I’m self-centered

And I spend my days in meaningless activities

Becoming filthier, baby.

I want to leave your purity as it is,this is my sincerity, my belief in you

Don’t leave me even in death

Even if I cheat

Don’t you ever cheat, Baby

Even if I forget you

Don’t you ever forget me, Lady

If once in a while I don’t contact you

and I go out to drink

Even if I ever meet another girl’s gaze

Look only at me.

The message of the song is way too one sided. But the heck, the melody is catchy anyway.

Anyong! Keke~~
