New layout and a quick hello!

Notice anything different? Except for the fact that I quickly blogged.. or.. am blogging.. or well, am typing this. lol. Whatever.. I know, I know, I did a Wufan layout the time before last, but UGH HE'S SO AWESOME. And I've been using this particular pic as my desktop pic for the past.. 100 years. And I wanted to share it with you. I wanted to keep this spring layout as simple and clean colored as possible.. and light too. lol.

I went to Andong to do some research for a school paper (I'm so fucking busy lately with mid-terms it's not even funny) and I snapped some photos.. I wanted to share some of them with you as well as tell you about the layout.
I'm sorry for being absent again. I know, I suck.. -__-" Anyhoozle, enjoy the new layout! Let me know if you have any ideas for the next one : D

Thanks for reading, y'all!
MUCH LOVE

she came (down with the flu), she blogged, she posted


Hello and excuse my re-occurring absence. I got extremely sick after the G-Dragon concert last weekend and have been coughing up an indefinite amount of bacteria for the past week's time. I've been on cold medicine, pain killers, allergy medicine, fever reducers (and what else not) and I am finally starting to feel better. I know, I know.. y'all think I'm sick all the time, but I actually haven't been sick since I was sick around Christmas/beginning of January.. so yeah, I was doing really well until this dumb-ass flu came along :C boo!
Anyway, as I shortly mentioned, I went to the G-Dragon concert last Saturday and it was pretty bomb. Sadly the concert was barely one and a half hours long (which is very short for a Korean concert - any concert imo) but Tablo (EPIK HIGH), Lee Hai (Lee Hi) and CL (2ne1) all made an appearance so that was super cool. I flipped the fuck out (needless to say) when Tablo came on stage and I still can't get my hands down. Haha he is so awesome!

What's most important is that my family arrived in Incheon last monday and I was beyond excited to see them! I've been hanging out with them a lot and I really wanna thank them for coming out to see me during their easter holidays. It was so bomb and ughhh.. I got so much delicious food while they were here. T_T yums. (excuse the unedited phone pics)

There's this (new?) Japanese udon place downtown Shinchon (close to Hyundai Department Store) and their curry udon is DELISH!
MOS BURGER (Ebikatsu)
Korean BBQ w/ fams.
My first steak in 8 months. (T.G.I. Friday's) nomsies!
All the goods that my parents brought from home *__* look at that Pepsi Max! The little wrapped "gift" is Belgian chocolates that my mom bought for me when she went to Belgium with her class (she's a teacher (mostly business economy and law)).
Nezumi's dad came to Seoul too and we decided to take them around Seoul for funsies and exploration of the city. We took them to Seoul Tower (Namsan Tower) one of the nights and it was super chill. We took the cable car thing up to the bottom near the tower and then walked up the stairs. DAMN BRO that trip is tough when you're an older lady.. like my grandma! Haha poor grandma. She was having a hard time in Seoul cause the area is so damn hilly and mountain-y.
(photographer newbie Nani, but it came out pretty dope, aye?)
We enjoyed the view and later had an expensive but quite nice dinner at a restaurant on the first floor of the tower. The view was AMAZING btw.
I had.. uhh.. Cannollini? I don't even know.. somethin' somethin'. It was good. Not very filling for a viking like me tho. Hoho!
Then we enjoyed the view of the many locks and went to catch the cable car to go back down. It was a really nice experience. So many couples btw! Haha ridiculous.
On Sunday I took my family to the zoo in Grand Park in Seoul. It was super nice and the weather too! sadly a lot of the animals looked kinda sick or injured. One of the leopards was limping around like a wounded soldier and one of the wolves there was almost hyperventilating, laying on the ground :C Depressing. Lemme hug you aaaaall~!

(look Kris, this is what an actual rhino looks like, lol)
I heard that female lions are way worse when it comes to aggressiveness than the males. We had an incident in Denmark where the female lions actually killed and ate a new male that the zoo had just gotten home for new "lines" for breeding etc. I guess they didn't like him. o__o imagine the view that met the visitors that day. Danng!
All in all it was nice though and I got some pretty nice shots! Including one of this cute little girl with a bubble machine! Hoho~ so adorable! I also bought myself a really cute white tiger plushy.. as a little souvenir for good times with my lovely family ^__^)/ yey!
Sadly I was quite annoyed by the amount of idiot little kids screaming, yelling and banging on the cages to make the animals move - moreso annoyed did I become when the parents did nothing to tell their kids to please respect that the animal is asleep/relaxing and should be allowed to do so. So yet again... I went back to hating kids (and their dumb, irresponsible parents. ew).
To end this entry - though it's already packed with photos.. - here's a picture of a really cute purse that my dad got me while they were here : D 
They went home Thursday, so I was quite upset.. which explains the shopping therapy I did later on (meaning: today) hoho! I will do a haul video! I got both kpop, makeup, clothing etc. Super nice! 
I bought these shoes a couple of days ago, but I really like them. They're a BIT too tight, but I don't mind suffering for them. Hoho! Cool aye? They're the newest version of the Jeremy Scott Wings 2.0 - they look epic and are quite comfy spite being a bit too small. Love 'em!

Food! A few pics.. a bit random but oh well!

This is from Nezumi's and my trip to Myeongdong today. The chicken was gross but the rest was yummy! The chicken kinda tasted like those nuggets you buy at the grocery store and then heat up at home in the oven. Grooooooss X__o
And randomly my current favorite at Crazy Brown downstairs. noms!




And lastly.. the damage I did today!
OUUUUWWWW

Again, sorry for the long hiatus. I feel a bit better (spite random cough-attacks that seem to attempt to kill me lol) so I might do that haul video soon! Ahh being sick sucks so bad :C Damn you fluuuu!
-fist of fury-

Thanks for reading ^3^)/
MUCH LOVE

☆ ~ 2012 RECAP ~ ☆

My year 2012
in pictures and captions (that took me forever to edit -__-" lol)

I'm quite surprised by how many hits my birthday post got (and is still getting).. What is going on? Anyway, here's my 2012 in pics (and short captions) Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year! ^__^)/ ~ ♡
JANUARY x I spent a shit ton of time with JEONGIE during January. We did a lot of shopping, celebrated New Years together and yeah.. just hung out a lot in general. She also was the host of the party that we threw to welcome ARLENE to Denmark when she came to visit! ^__^)/

xxx
FEBRUARY x This month has no picture for the mere reasons that 1. February sucked for me and 2. I didn't blog at all.. My family had a very close friend taken away from us way too soon and she left this world in the most horrible way one could ever imagine. So yeah, let's leave it at that.

MARCH x Yay! I participated in the big demonstration in Copenhagen against ACTA. Fuckyeah, we did a good job! ACTA was cancelled and trashed shortly after. Hoho! Score! I also got my own apartment! :'D Looking at the pictures now I kinda miss it.. -sigh-


APRIL x I got my first LUSH order in the mail and loved pretty much everything! Except the foot mask.. The foot mask was made of evil and mint. Ouch! I got a lovely care package from Haku and I went home shortly during the month to visit family.

MAY x I got my fucking awesome DSLR this month and my food porn pics instantly got better! Haha! I also got my first Sigma Beauty order in, finally got my hands on some Makeup Forever products and cooked like a maniac! So much food porn nom nom nom!

JUNE x Uni ended and we flipping ROCKED the event at the National Museum. I worked hard to make a good impression (and a good presentation) and it paid off! I got an A+ and could finish uni that semester with a big smile on my face. I spent my last days in the capital by chilling with friends, eating and doing slumber parties at Dev's house. Good times! Oh, and I met Haku as well! Best month EVER imo!

JULY x I actually packed up my things in the end of June, but oh well. I moved my stuff to my parents' house and decided to spend my last month in Denmark with them. I helped out a bit around the house, went with my dad to Germany to shop a bit for Gold Cup 2012, cut my hair super short and spent some time with my parents' new puppy! You can barely see her on the pic, but she's actually laying down just in front of Agnes (the white/black one). Ahh~! Shirley's gotten super big already. -sigh-

AUGUST x August was crazy as heck! I spent a weekend with my entiiiire family at Lalandia in Billund to celebrate my grandma's birthday before leaving. I then packed my shit and left for Korea. It was a long-ass trip (18,5 hours on flight in total) and we were completely busted after that. I got sick within the first 2 days (damn air condition) of being there but oh well.. We did a bit of partying, met some awesome people after moving into the dorms, went to the SM.ARTS Exhibition at CO.EX (where we were interviewed 3 times and where we also saw Ryeowook and Eunhyuk from Super Junior, w00t) and went to see a bit of the PROLEAGUE 2012 games - T1 vs. ACE. Of course T1 won ; D 천찬씨 was an ultimate fanboy that day. Haha! Good times!

SEPTEMBER x I don't remember much else than the MCM event from this month.. oh and the concert! I was literally drunk for almost 3 weeks out of this month. It was crazy! I went with friends to see FT Island's show TAKE FTISLAND (it was epiccc!!), went to buy MCM bags and then also went to the MCM x Vogue Korea event the same month. Oh, again.. lots of partying! The pic is me and Caspin aka 내제일좋아하는뚱바보 ♡ ㅋㅋ

OCTOBER x In October we made the huge mistake of going to the fireworks festival. It was a beautiful show but the trip home was a BITCH as the nearest subway had been closed and police was surveilling  the other two. We had to walk along the highway to find a cab, constantly having to listen to stupid dudes in cars honking and yelling at us in broken English -__-" We luckily found a cab, but ugh.. Never again. Also.. the most amazing release of the year (of any year in kpop really) came out - BLOCK.B's BLOCKBUSTER. I'm still loving the album to bits. Will do a review/unboxing on my YOUTUBE channel for you guys! Just gotta clear my cold first.. T_T

NOVEMBER x Argh finals began this month. I spent a shit ton of time with my KLI class and especially Sejon and I went on some epic adventures. He went back to Australia already but oh well~ What else can you expect from a fackin' caaarnt? LOL. I also experimented a bit with my hair color and dyed some of it lilac (I did that in October too, but November's outcome was better imo).. I was also majorly sick during some of the finals. I'm sick now too.. again.. Jeez.

DECEMBER x Ahhhh such a crazy month! The holidays made me miss family and friends back home to DEATH and I've had a hard time handling being so far away. I'm dealing with it still, but oh well.. What can you do? I guess this is all part of growing up. Anyway, this month I went to A Walk With(out) the Stars (click HERE for vlog!), got my first tattoo (read about it HERE) that I fucking LOVE to pieces, turned 22 and celebrated with a great party with epic friends! :'D They even got me a cake! Ahh~! ♡ It was the best party ever! I later on celebrated a rather sad Christmas Eve with Kat and Nezumi. After that I ended up going to Hongdae and got fucked up (meaning: piss drunk lol). New Years was spent at Nezumi's dorm where we watched Harry Potter, had snacks and just generally had a great time! I also got to Skype with my parents that day.. I actually Skyped with them at 8AM on the 1st of January (time difference) and they were all piss drunk. LOLOL. Good times! I miss them a lot..

And yeah.. here we are! A lot of my friends left Korea (or are leaving soon) so our paths are separating us yet once again. I gained and lost a lot of friends here already - all part of growing up, huh? It's tough but you learn to live with it I guess. I'm excited to see what the next few months will bring, as our scholarship doesn't allow us to take winter classes. So for now (and until March) I can chill.. I'm hoping for a trip to Japan one of these days! I really wanna go! Maaaybe if I'm super lucky, my trip to Japan will crash with a the GazettE gig. Oh dang, that would be epic! ♡ Hoho!

Wish you all a wonderful 2013
Thank you so much for all the support during this past year.
I can't wait to share my life experiences with you guys in the new year as well.
Take care and stay strong
♡
