It's One Direction yo!!!
Zayn Malik, Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson.
The first time I heard of them is from my brother. He told me this, "One Direction is rising up to be the next Justin Bieber."
Yeah, I guess so, seeing that the views of their youtube videos are reaching to a few million! :O
All of them participated in the 'X-factor', a British singing contest (I think, I don't really watch it :P).
They participated as individuals, which means that they DID NOT KNOW EACH OTHER AT ALL.
But I guess they didn't make it very far as individuals, so in the end one of the judges grouped them together and hence, they are now known as 'One Direction'. They were outstanding though, as individuals.
Anyway, Liam Payne participated in the X-factor'2008, he didn't passed the judges house episode. Simon thought that he was too young, and lack experience. So he told Liam that he should come again 2 years later. And so 2 years passed, Liam Payne is back! And Simon self-proclaimed that he was right. HAHA He was really awesome, singing 'Cry Me A River'.
Personally, I am a fan of Liam Payne. I think his voice is really nice, but Harry's one is awesome-r. So basically I am both a fan of Harry Styles and Liam Payne. Both of their voices really melt my heart. <3
I do not know much about them, I'm really lazy to search up too anyway :P But I really like their songs, especially 'What Makes You Beautiful' and 'Gotta Be You'. Those 2 are my favourites! :D
Louis is really funny too. He speaks really well, in a sense that he can be an emcee. Hehe.
Okay, you know what, nevermind, I do not know much so I shall stop my post here. Let's end with a song. :D
'What Makes You Beautiful'.
(Grr.. Blogger didn't allow me to post the video here so I just gave the link -.- Lazyyyy. )

Jonas Brothers - When you look me in the eyes
I know it's a pretty old song, but really, it's nice, right? I mean, you do want your guy to feel like that about you, no? Well, I do I suppose. If I ever do find a guy who knows how to sing, I guess I would like him to sing this song.
If the heart is always searching,
Can you ever find a home?
I've been looking for that someone,
I'll never make it on my own.
Dreams can't take the place of loving you,
There's gotta be a million reasons why it's true
When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.
How long will I be waiting,
To be with you again
Gonna tell you that I love you,
In the best way that I can.
I can't take a day without you here,
You're the light that makes my darkness disappear.
When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.
More and more,
I start to realize,
I can reach my tomorrow,
I can hold my head high,
And it's all because you're by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When I hold you in my arms
I know that it's forever
I just gotta let you know
I never wanna let you go
Cause when you look me in the eyes.
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.
Oh

Do you believe in miracles?I do, actually.
Miracles, in my opinion, are God's works on Earth.
And I also do believe that God's works did happened in my life before, and I am thankful for that, because if not for God, I wouldn't be who I am today.
Well, the first person that ever told me about God was my mum.
She told me something about Adam and Eve, how they were the first people who set foot on this Earth, and something about them listening to Satan, so now we all have a Satan in our heart when we do bad deeds. So I totally believed my mum and I started to pray to God for my own benefit, like praying that I'll get good PSLE results. That year, I felt really close to God. And I did get rather good PSLE results, but thinking back now, how selfish was I to only think of myself. But of course I am different now. And that was when I was Primary 6.
I went to English tuition when I was Primary 6/Sec1, I couldn't remember how old was I. But there was one lesson, my tuition teacher did not teach us English at all. What a waste of money right! But no, I was really glad that he actually told us all about God that day. At first when he talked about it, I asked some questions so that I wouldn't have to do any English homework that lesson, how selfish right? But after that I got intrigued, and I wanted to know more. And that whole 2 hours, we talked and learned more about God.
Sec2, I totally forgot about the existence of God. I did bad deeds, I did what God didn't want us to do. I sin a lot. More like everyday. Scolding vulgarities. And of course, life was horrible that year. It was ridiculously terrifying. I was even scared of myself. And so people treat me bad as how I treated them bad. Mixed emotions, anger, frustration, sadness. Yeah well, all the expected. And it continued until sec3. Well, I was better during my sec3 year, because I tried to change, and I said less vulgarities. And now, I rather not say it at all, although sometimes with the slip of my tongue. But also now I'd rather not hear vulgarities coming out of my friend's mouth too. I'd cringe away.
So then I started to remember that very person that I left locked in the drawer at the back of my head. That person was God. Earlier this year in April/May, all the insulting, all the misery came with me to my sec3 year, so I felt really depressed, so while I was at the bus stop, crying for help to God, asking why has my life become like this, this wasn't what I wanted, and I was sorry because I can't handle it anymore, I hate this me. And as though God has heard my prayer, because he sent 2 angels to me, to change my life, and I am who I am today. I still remember them till this day, and I am really grateful to them, for telling me about God that day at the bus stop. And I do not regret missing all my buses so as to hear them speak about God. After all, they are my 'angels sent from heaven' right? So we meet up often and they'll teach me stuffs about God, and now I know more.
What I am trying to say is that, God do answer your prayers. You just have to repent and say you're sorry, and God will light your way. Your sins are forgiven.
Discrimination; Biased.

Ever since Kpop Hallyu wave hit Singapore around midyear in 2009, I have quite adored all the SM entertainment artists. From SHINee,
(From left: Onew, TaeMin, MinHo, JongHyun and Key.)
f(x),
(From left: Victoria, Sulli, Krystal, Amber and Luna)
BoA,
TVXQ,
(From left: YunHo, YooChun, JaeJoong, ChangMin and JunSu.) I'm not really familiar with TVXQ, I would often mix up YooChun and JunSu. Anyway, currently TVXQ has only 2 members, consisting of YunHo and ChangMin only. The other 3 went off on their own, commonly known as JYJ now.
and of course, the band I like the most,
Super Junior.
(From left at the back: ShinDong, RyeoWook, HanKyung, LeeTeuk, KyuHyun, SiWon, DongHae, YeSung, KangIn.
Front row from left: KiBum, SungMin, HeeChul, EunHyuk.)
They debuted as the largest group with 13 members, but I think that there may be many other groups that will beat that record in the near future.
However, currently, there are only 9 members that are active in Super Junior.
1 of them, HanKyung, has filed a lawsuit against SMent, and therefore quitting his job at SMent, and continuing his career as a singer in his home country, China.
Although HanKyung has already dropped the lawsuit against SM, there is no evidence that he is returning to Super Junior.
KangIn, is currently serving in the korean military. He was suspended from all his activities in 2010, because it was heard he got himself into a fight after drinking. After that, he then decided to leave for the military during his suspension. He will finish his military service only in July, 2012.
KiBum, 1 of the youngest in Super Junior, has decided to pursue his acting career.
Although is was rumored that he would be joining the 5th album, Mr Simple, this year, but that remained as a rumor. Up till now, ELFs have not heard about when KiBum would come back.
As for HeeChul, the 1 who is deemed as "weird", has left for his military service not long ago, in September this year.
He is 28 this year, and in Korea, every 28 year old man has to go to serve in the military, although you may choose to go earlier when you want to, like in KangIn's case. But 28 years old is the deadline. You. Have. To. At. Least. Start. To. Go. When. You. Are. 28.
For celebrities, you can choose to extend your "deadline", however, HeeChul wants to do his part to protect his country, so he chose to go this year, leaving countless fans upset upon hearing the news. However, they are also relieved, knowing that KangIn and HeeChul are now together.
LeeTeuk would be serving his military duties somewhere next year. And ELFs are now starting to grieve, knowing that Super Junior will never remain a group with the full number, 13.
Here comes the worst news.
When I first heard of Kpop in 2009, and started to research more on them in 2010, SMent, in my eyes, are not technically, very bias.
Yet.
I did like all the artist in SM, and I adored them, having the ability to produce such good artists. Then I realised, SMent, when choosing their artists, they choose by looks, not talent. And JYP, they choose by talent. And so I found out that although JYP artists aren't as famous as SM's, but they are able to win awards based on their abilities, like Miss A.
Yes, I am saying that SOME of SM artists may not have won based on their abilities.
Let's take 2010 Golden Disk Award for example. Super Junior was winning in online votes, album sales, and digital sales. Everyone thought that Super Junior was going to win. And this Golden DIsk Award is a very high class award, where it shows how much effort you have put in that year. I think the stadium was filled with ELFs that day, waiting to hear the winner, and waiting to cheer and cry with Super Junior themselves. The only colour that could be seen on that day was pearl sapphire blue, the colour that represents Super Junior. But the results was the most unexpected, and it disappointed thousand of fans and of course Super Junior themselves. Although they didn't show it then, we could all see that they were trying to hold it in. Girls' Generation was the one who won. And Super Junior themselves knew it before they announced the winner. They stood up and went to congratulate members of Girls' Generation. But later on their respective twitter accounts, they showed their disappointment but at the same time, tried to console their fans. See how caring they were, even though they lost? They know that their fans came all the way in hope that they would win, so they consoled us, without consoling themselves first. Thousands left the stadium with tears on their faces. This made many ELFs dislike SMent, because it was obvious that Super Junior was winning, but in order to pacify their biased group, which is Girls' Generation, they bribed GDA. (Rumored, but we are still not sure up to this day.)
This year, 2011, especially, it was even more obvious to ELFs, that SMent is biased towards Girls' Generation. All the Music Videos of Super Junior, they only had 2 dancing scenes. And they were dancing in a box! As for GG, they had many different scenes so as to tell a story on what their music is trying to say. And is was again rumored that SM had to lower Super Junior's budget, because GG's one was too high! Technically I don't care if their's is too high because you made it too high! You have to be fair and let everyone have an equal budget. If you made it too high and resulted in a loss of money, that would be your problem!
Super Junior's manager had to even post online this year to salvage Super Junior. At least now ELFs know that there is at least one person working in SMent that is caring towards Super Junior. He mentioned that ELFs have to help Super Junior win the GDA this year, if not they would disband. Think I'm talking nonsense? Here's the evidence:
Super Junior 的经纪人在facebook上发表了这个消息, 文章的內容大概是Super Junior在一起的时间还有多久要看这次的GDA的得主.
现在SM把Super Junior放到一边, 今天大家都觉得Super Junior在接下来的两年很难生存下去, 不过这些完全要看ELF对Super Junior的爱有多深, 两年时间不短, 如果ELF一直陪着Super Junior而且期待Super Junior的comeback, 那么SM也是会让Super Junior comeback的, 到头来, 这一切都跟钱脱不了关系.
SM最看重的是一个group的成功和收入, 现在Super Junior的成员已经开始每年陆续入伍/离开, 所以SM觉得Super Junior在接下來的时间不能生存, 如果Super Junior能拿到GDA, 那就肯定能夠证明一些事. 如果S......uper Junior能夠获得GDA, 那么就能保着Super Junior多几年的生涯.
大家也希望Super Junior不会解散吧! 但并沒有多少团能夠撑过5年, Super Junior在那时可能全都专注在solo上. 如果ELF团结在一起令Super Junior取得GDA, Super Junior便能撑过去了. 大家都知道这对他们十分重要, 他们也不断地重复喑示他们有多想取得这个奖, 他们想得到这个奖的原因只是要让人知道在两年后他们仍然会在此!
所以最终Super Junior能否得到这个奖完全要看ELF们的努力了!

Now, they told us that ELFs have to do all they can to help Super Junior win GDA this year, because if they don't, Super Junior will disband. We will do our best, and we will win if you guys don't bribe people, don't do tricks under your sleeve and such! For the past few years, it was playing tricks. Trying to show that Super Junior was winning but the results tell a different story. Now, you upload your bias group videos everywhere, you reset Super Junior's videos so that they views are lowered, which are also counted in GDA, and you're telling us we have to help them win? Don't play tricks SM, never play with the bitch, 'cause our bites are worse than you can ever imagine. I. Will. Kill. You.
And, there is this certain Sone that came to Mr. Simple MV to post many mean things about Super Junior and ELFs. She, apparently thinks that Girls' Generation is the best. Well, technically it differs from person to person. But she was being so arrogant and ignorant. This is one thing i hate about SM biasing GG because giving them the princess treatment would equal to the development of arrogance in sones. I'm not stereotyping here, I am not saying that all are like that, I have friends that are sones and we are all friendly towards each other. But I am saying some are like that, because I've also read blogs of some of these people. I do not hate you all for being like that, it is not your fault. But it is also not right for SM to give GG the princess treatment. Okay, back to the topic, so this certain sone got bashed by lots of us ELFs, and so she retreated to where she belonged. Although she apologized later, but she still received treats that lasted for awhile only. They weren't death treats, no worries, we aren't like that ;) I think now it died down already. She did mentioned something, however, it was really "meaningful". She said that many other fandoms like GG but hate Super Junior. Quite the contrary, actually. When we didn't win in one of the Music Bank, many of the other fandoms like VIPs, Primadoona all came to console us. See the connection we all share. But for Sones, I would like to categorize them as more "independent". They stay close together, and reject any entrance of others. Hence, arrogance. (I'm truly sorry for all my sone friends :( ) You can find all the evidence in Mr. Simple MV comments, but it's probably at the very back. Kinda hard to find. People comment everyday.
Also, it was rumored that SM is afraid of HeeChul. With the absence of HeeChul, they are not mistreating Super Junior. I'm not really a fan of A-CHA, and we all know that they didn't win once with A-CHA. SM gave them a lousy song, and Super Junior have to promote that song ALL BY THEMSELVES. LeeTeuk and EunHyuk mentioned this in Sukira, you guys can go find by yourself.
With this post, I am not trying to make you side us ELFs, nor am I trying to make you hate Girls' Generation. I'm quite okay with them because it is not them that we should hate,(if you're considering hating them) but it should be the person behind all the tricks. It is not the whole of SMent, or the CEO, Lee Soo Man, but Kim Young Min. I will hunt him down if he were to make all of us cry again this year. I. Will. Hunt. Him. Down. And. Shoot. Him. Down. Like. A. Hunter. Hunting. For. A. Deer. That asshole. I'm the kind of bitch you never want to mess with in your life. Take note of that.
The saddest relationship among all fans and idols all over the world, it has to be the relationship between Super Junior and ELFs. We were discriminated, mistreated, misunderstood. And many of our boys faced car accidents, and Kyuhyun, almost died. He had a 20% chance of living and he survived, HeeChul had to undergo surgery and now a metal rod exist in his leg. Only about 1 or 2 members did not experience a car accident before. So all the more, we are cherishing our boys to the max right now. I'm not trying to gain pity, but SM is really, really, really crossing the line.

Photo taken by Alyssa, photoshop by Alyssa :)
Well, actually I only photoshop the words in,
The picture is raw. Hehe, proud of myself, taking baby steps ^^
It's clear when I preview it but somewhere along the way maybe something went wrong, so on blogger it's blur :/ What a shame. :(
Anyway, the words say, "고독... 내 빈 느낌 안에있다. 너 없이 난 살는 안돼." Which means, "Loneliness... I have an empty feeling inside of me. I can't live without you."
Heh, exaggerated, but yeah...
That's all for tonight! :) Buh-bye.

If you'd ask me what I'm missing right now,
I can't say it out loud,
'cause the one and only thing I'm missing right now,
is you.
Yet,
You don't even know it.
I miss the memories we had together,
the things we used to do together,
but you don't seem to remember a single thing.
Am I the only one that's holding on?
Are you trying to shake me off your back so you could move on?
While you walk away, I stand here in the rain, wiping my tears away.

Is there even someone out there that won't want to play with my feelings?The world is cruel.
People are starting to believe any shit that others plant into their mind without even thinking about how reliable that person is.
Who can you trust in this world now, right?
A question asked, that can't be answered.
Often we would stare at ourselves in the mirror, and say to ourselves, "You are ugly."
Perhaps it is not the person who is ugly, but the world that is.
All of us are born beautiful, we all have a kind heart from the beginning.
But things start to change as we grow up, as our environment influences us to be who we are today.
These things are unavoidable, but please, can we at the very least stay true to ourselves?
If we lie to others, can we at least be truthful to ourselves?
