Hello 2014!!

2013 is over!!
Wow, this was one very fast year and I did sooo many things.. I'm now finally in my last year of school, I got my drivers licence, wrote important exams and had a big project in school. There were also some sad things, most importantly my grandmother to get very ill! This saddened me a lot, and I don't even want to think about her future death that will happen soon.. :'(
This and the fact that school is very important to me right now are the reasons why I don't have that much time for my blog. But last year I reached quite a few things. I have more than 10,000 views on my blog and 1/10 is only from my ''I got a boy'' post. In total I have now almost 150 posts and the most important thing is that I still have fun writing things!

But now it is 2014, a new year has begun. This also means new chances to do things, but also new challenges that we have to accept. In my case it's the big end exams and also the end of school that will probably followed by university. I really want to study Japanese, so I hope I will be accepted at an university. (yep, that's my big dream)
But enough about me, let's talk about music and my hopes for that.

Super Junior to release an awesome KOREAN album and title song

Because, as happy I am that Heechul is back, I want them to release something awesome in Korea again!! Their albums are always so good and I really hope 2014 will be their year again!!

More SuJu members to go to the army



I guess Sungmin will be the first to go next, but somehow I have a feeling that a few more could go. Well, let's just hope that EunHae will go together, ne? ;)

Big Bang to release some stuff together again

Big Bang should really do something together again. How about a new album? Or just a single, I don't care. But I want a song and music video with ALL of them.. Come on, it has been SO long since Monster.. -.-

I get into Kpop a bit more again



Oh right, my hope last year was that I won't forget about it and I didn't do that! But I did care less about it and I don't even follow the groups a lot anymore (except for SuJu, but even that's a lot less now..).

H!P to continue their double A-sides



You know, I really think this is a great idea. Okay, they should stop it sometime, but now it gives us two song + videos and them more sales, so why not?? xD

Morning Musume ´14 to continue their Oricon 1st streak and be seen as a top group again



Okay, so I really, REALLY hope this gets true. Like, I don't even care that much about their sales, but i really want them to be recognized again!

Morning Musume ´14 to get invited to Kouhaku



And this is even a bigger hope, but I really hope Momosu will be seen big enough to participate this year!!!!!

C-ute to sell more than 100,000 copies of a single



Okay, perhaps this seems impossible, but since they sell more than 60,000 already it doesn't seem that far away, right? I just hope they will improve their sales even more!!

Berryz to get more PV and song budget



That actually says everything. I just hope they get a better treatment and promotion next year!

AKB48 to release more interesting songs



Okay, because honestly, even though I like the majority of songs from this year, it wasn't that original for them. SKE48 and NMB48 actually had even better songs than their mother group so it's quite sad.. SO please Aki-p, give AKB48 some more of your creativity!

Kojima Haruna to graduate/ announce her graduation 



This isn't actually a hope, it's just a guess. She already heinted it and now with Yuko announcing hers I don't think she will wait any longer.. It will be sad to see all of the older members going but I don't ahve any doubt for Nyan's carreer!!

AKB48 to not continue their first week million streak



Because of the reasons mentioned above I actually really think it will end. Which doesn't mean they won't sell a million, I just think it won't be reached in a week.. xP But who knows which strageties Aki-p has left..

More Election places



Okay, so since there are even more girls especially with the newer generations, I really hope there will be more election places. I won't be so hard to make a fourth group from place 65 to 80, right? This will allow even more members to be actually ranked..

Miyazawa Sae to come back to Team K or to graduate



I rather want the first one to come true (How about an announcement at the Olympic Stadium?) so that she can participate in AKB48 events again. Buta ctually, she will turn 24 this year, so I don't think she will stay that much longer in an Idol group. (she seems to have fun with her Musical rehearsels) But since she is still a very popular member and loves AKB48, I don't think she will quit suddenly. (I hope..)

So yeah, this have been my wishes for this year!!

...and hello 2013!!

Yeayyyy, It's finally 2013.
SO now that the year started, here are the things I look forward to:

Heechuls return
OMG, just a few months left. <3 We waited so long but he will finally come back. Ever since he deleted his Twitter account I missed him even more. Just a few photos were made with other members and released on these members accounts. The waiting will end. xD



Super Junior Ms Comeback
Ooooh yeah, that's so cool. They didn't release something for a year and now they WILL do it. Like oooh yeaaaah, so cool. I love it when they sing in Mandarin. And of course I will see my beloved Henry and Zhoumi again. *-*



Girls Generations Comeback
Because it will be big (it already is). I already look forward to their new album. :)



Morning Musumes new single 'Help Me' + PV release
I'm somehow more excited about this than I was with Wakuteka take a Chance. It's probably because of the awesome dance and Oda Sakura. (and Fuku-hime shining so much in the song)



SKE48 and AKB48 new song
I'm curious how AKB will transform. Who's going to be the new ace? Mayuyu? And I hope the new SKE song will be as good as Kataomoi Finally. Pleeaaase. *-*



My hopes:

Super Junior to release a new BIG HIT (like Sorry Sorry or Mr Simple)
Pleease! Because, as much as I liked SFS, it wasn't fully what I expected. Oh and could they please wait for Heechuls return?? I want to have him back in a music video!!



Big Bang continuing to be succesfull and release either a really good single/ Mini-album/ Album or coming to Germany
I really hope they will be BIG next year, too. And could they please release new songs? The ones from this year were so awesome. *-* Oh that with Germany is just a dream. It surely won't come true. I hope for Paris some time soon. (Because that is ok, but LONDON? My parents don't just let me flight to the UK for a concert. :'D)



MBLAQ releasing a new single that wows everyone again
They became more popular last year. So I hope they continue with amazing songs.



Not so much rookie groups anymore
I just can't catch up on them anymore (and I don't have time either). A few, well promoted is good, but please not that much. *sigh*

I get into japanese music even more, but don't forget about K-pop
Okay, I won't ever forget about K-pop (I think) but I really hope to learn about more japanese groups (also the male ones. I kinda didn't care for KAT-TUN last year :T).

None of my favourite bands to disband or member changes in any of them
I don't think big groups like Big Bang or Super Junior will disband soon but I still hope they stay like they are. But the member changes can't be stopped because of the army and other things. :T

And I hope to post even more this year. :D
Happy New Year to all of you. *-*

Monday, December 31, 2012

Bye, bye 2012...



2012 was a really exciting year, that now comes to an end. Many things happened, we survived the end of the world, all the year-end festivals were great and now we look forward to 2013. I somehow think this number looks odd :'D Don't know why though. Nevermind.
Today I will celebrate the end of the year with my friends, eat, laugh and watch movies with them and than watch the big fireworks all over the skies *-* Yeayyy.
But now I will talk about the most important things that happened in 2012.

The best book I read:

Definitely Matched by Andie Condie. I got that book for Christmas last year, so it was one of the first books to read at the beginning of the new year. And I still remember how I read it in one evening + night while listening to Akanishi Jins 'Seasons'. *-* The book was just wonderful. It was written so well, I even started to cry (and I don't cry that often while reading books). The second book followed in Febuary 2012, so I read that, too. And I was impressed again. Such a wonderful book. :) Now I'm still waiting for the 3rd book to be released in Germany (it will be released on the 8th January *-*). Already looking forward to that xD






Best movies I watched:

I didn't watch that much new movies this year. But three ones really shined among these (in no particular order):

1. The Hunger Games
I didn't read the book (but I still want to) but I was hooked from the very beginning. The movie is sooo cool. I like how the whole world in the movie is drecribed and the characters are also really good.



2. Skyfall
Just aaaaaawesome. This convinced even my anti-Bond friends that Bond is cool. LOL
From the epic song to all the characters and the thrilling story it was one of the best movies of the year.



3. Wreck-it Ralph
Well, I wrote a review about it but I have to say again that I really recommend watching it, because it is a funny, cute, but also touching movie.




Songs, Idols and moore

Most memorable K-pop songs of the year:
1. This is war – MBLAQ
This one s really important for me. It was one of my longest favourite songs ever, even to that despite, that I listened to it the whole time of the day. The video is also epic (a little bit too dramatic, but it's good). It was a good start for MBLAQ. Scribble and Run were also amazing songs, that I really like to listen to.


2. Blue/ Fantastic Baby – Big Bang
These are two songs, as you can see. Well, after Blue was released I totally, totally loved this new style of Big Bang. The song is just so wonderful. But then they released Fantastic Baby, the opposit of Blue. (I didn't forget Bad Boy, it just didn't stood out to me that much) But this song was really catchy and more like a dance-song. I just say I like both equally.


3. Electric Shock/ Beautiful Stranger - f(x)
OMG such a goood song. I didn't like the 2011 releases of f(x), so this was quite a saviour for my love for them. It's just so awesome. And so is Beautiful Stranger. Okay, it is just a song on their Mini-Album but it is sooo amazing. (And did you know, that Amber let her hair grown a little bit longer? Gayo Daejun.. It looks good o.O)


4. Twinkle/ Baby Steps – TaeTiSeo
Again a single with a song from the Mini-Album. Twinkle was a really good song, that highlighted the (aaaweeesome) individual voices of the 3 members. While it was a rather up beat song, Baby Steps is a more slower song, that just sounds beautiful. *-*


5. Sexy, Free & Single/ A 'Good Day' – Super Junior
SFS was a really good song. Just not as good as SuJus other singles (sorry). But nevertheless it was a cool song, with an awesome dance (Eunhyuuuk). The whole album was really, really good. Especially A 'Good Day'. It is soo beautiful. :3



6. Sherlock - SHINee
Coool song. And the dance is really good (okay it's SHINee, so they can dance really, really good).



7. Tarantellagra – Junsu
A song that was a little bit different, but nevertheless catchy and really cool (Junsu as a women LOL)



8. I love you - 2NE1
This one is slower than many other 2NE1 songs, but shows that they can sing these songs, too.



9. Humanoids – TVXQ
The newest release on my list. I missed them a lot so it's really cool, that they are finally back. And the song is really cool.


10. Touch – Miss A
Last but not least is this song. I love the song soo much. And the sound at the beginning of the song is really cute.



Other special things to mention:
-Gangnam Style by Psy -> because it got soo popular. 1 billion clicks on YouTube.. WOOOOW o.O
- EXO. The teasers annoyed me, but the songs on the mini-album are all great (fave: Two moons).


2012 Japanese Songs that I liked:
'Ren'ai Hunter' by Morning Musume (This really brought me more into J-pop, even though I first watched it a months after its release.. like July?)
'UZA' by AKB48 (Because with this one I started to become an AKB48 fan)
'Kataomoi Finally' by SKE48 (In this one I finally recognized Jurina as the cool one I liked in UZA, LOL [I watched it in October so yeah for me it was AFTER UZA] xP And I want to review it some time... because of the aaaawesome video and of course the dance and the cool song xP)
'Saraba itoshiki kanashimi-tachi yo' by Momoiro Clover Z (I knew them before, but with THIS song I began to care more about them)
'Cha Cha Sing' by Berryz Koubou (I talked about it before. It's so addicting)
'Aitai, Aitai, Aitai na' by C-ute (a cool song that helped me liking them so much more)

Japanese Idols:
- Takahashi Ai: Probably the biggest impact one me (lol). Well, she was the first I could tell apart in  Nanchatte Ren'ai (my first song of MM) so she somehow was the first I wanted to learn more about.



Niigaki Risa: I recognized her second after Ai in MMs videos and then she slowly turned into one of my all-time favourites of the group. Well, sadly she graduated. *sob* I'll miss her funny expressions and her voicee -.-



- Ikuta Erina: One of the first to recognize from these new kids (9th and 10th gen.). She is just so funny and gets better with every single. ;) Aaaand her love for Gaki is soo cute. :3



- Yoshizawa Hitomi: Brought me into old Morning Musume. Yeayy <3 xD Such a cool and funny personality and I really like her tomboy appereance.



- Oshima Yuko: One of the first to notice between the thousands of girls in AKB48 ;) And that means something. She has a funny smile and her personality is great.




- Miyazawa Sae: I didn't actually recognize her that fast. But after seeing more videos of her, she climbed to the top of my AKB ranking (that doesn't really exist). She's just so funny and adorable, the Genking-person of the group. Well, sadly she was transferred to SNH48. *sob* But at least she didn't left the whole group.



- Matsui Jurina: Last but not least another big impact... The girl that looked soo cool in UZA *-*
No but really, after learning more about her she is such a great person, I love her in the music videos, she's such a pimp but at the same time cute and most times defenitely doesn't look (and behave) like she's only 15.







Now a little bit more about Super Junior ;)
I went to my first and only K-pop concert this year and it was Super Juniors Super Show 4. *yeaaaay*
For that, me and my family drove the long way to Paris... sooo cool! (I had soo much luck that it was in my holiday) My mom and me went to the concert, while my dad and my sis walked through the city. My mom actually likes them. xP And after the concert she liked them even more.
I've never met that much Super Junior or even K-pop fans before. That was such a great experience *-*
The concert was really awesome, I enjoyed every minute of it and had to cry at the end. -.- Aaaaaand when they went around the audience, Sungmin walked to the corner where I stood aaaand so close that I could touch him. *-* I could shake his haaaand :D That was soooo cool :3
Only Super Junior with all members (or at least Heechul back) could top that!! Or Big Bang, that would be also cool.^^



SO when I'm already talking about Super Junior, I also have to mention Hangeng.
I started to look at his solo work this year and was really surprised. His songs are SOOO good. o.O
And then, shortly after that he released his 2nd Album with more awesome songs. I absolutely love Clown Mask and all the other songs. *-*



My first Blog
This year was also important, because I opened my first blog. *yeayyy*
I wanted to post about K-pop and other things I like, but soehow I think I posted more about J-pop. :'D But it's another genre I really, really like and love to know more about.
I will continue to post things next year, so stay tuned. Muahahaha
Bye, bye and enjoy your last day of 2012 (I definetely will).

Merry Christmas :3

Heyyy. It's finally the 24th :)
I'm sooo happy right now, I really really love Christmas. It's nice to be with your family and to have candles and a Christmas tree. And I also love to get presents (come on, who doesn't love that?) and to give some to others. It's just a good feeling when others are happy because of YOUR present! It's always a little bit stressfull to get all the presents etc. but in the end everthing goes well, so it's okay. There are many things that make Christmas so special.
For me, going through the snowy streets is also a part of it (IF it snows... :T). Music is big part for me too (because I'm a music freeaak).
I will post a few Christmas songs and say, what I find so special about them. (and yes, it will be mostly korean and japanese songs)


Last Christmas by Wham
When you hear that song in the radio you know that it's finally Christmas time. Okay, after the 10th time it gets annoying but in the beginning it's really nice to listen to it ;)
(I can't find it on youtube.. AETRFGZHHJ arrrgh... But I hope you all know it ;) )

The first noel
That is really one of my favourite Christmas songs ever. Especially when it's sung by TVXQ (the harmonization is so awesome *-*)





MBLAQ - White forever
This one has got one of these beats that I really, really like. I love the voices of the members and it always remembers me of last Christmas (because that was when it was released).




KAT-TUN - White X-mas
This one is a rather sad Christmas song. I'm getting all emotional when I listen to it and it's such a great song. I looove the voices. *-*







Morning Musume - Aruiteru
Well, I loove this one, too. It's so relaxing and encouraging. Okay sometimes I listen to it too much, but it's still one of my favourite songs by them. *-*




SM Town - Snow Dream
13 Super Junior and 5 DBSK... They were all together at that time *sob*. But that's not the only great thing about the song. It is refreshing and lovely, fitting Christmas so good. (and Heechul is hilarious)





Boyfriend - I'll be there
I'm not a big fan of this group, but I like the song nevertheless. xP




Utada Hikaru - Can't wait till Christmas
Oooooh, I love it so much. *-* It's a sad song and it's just soooooooo beautiful.
Hikki, you're awesome.




The Christmas Special from the 2007 Music Bank in Korea
Here, the best artists of Korea are gathered together and sing the best Christmas songs. Especially Big Bang and Super Junior. *-*


Here are a few pictures ;)









































I wish you all a lovely Christmas and hope you enjoy it with you family.
Bye, bye from mee~
