I'm giggled and jumped around after hearing this:
"Sexy and sassy groups like 4Minute, Girls Generation and 2NE1 are booming in Asia and have their own sights set on international success.
Morning Musume themselves admit to being fans; "I really like them very much," says Takahashi, before bursting into a refrain from 2NE1's hit single Lollipop with Lin Lin. "She dances perfectly to it," Lin Lin says of Takahashi, before revealing that Takahashi dances to Korean pop regularly in her dressing room."
I hope they like f(x)!! It'd make my day, especially Linlin or Sayu.

DO NOT LIKE
“I get hurt a lot as a female singer.”
“Since I’m in a girl group, people judge me on all kinds of things from my vocals to my body so it’s really hard on me. All girl group members feel this way.”
-Krystal
:''(
Netizens and even foreign fans can be so mean. Don't like someone for whatever reason? I suggest not reading/looking at stuff about them. I can't stand SNSD with a passion and could hate on them for hours but I don't. Nor do I read stuff about them because it'd just make me mad.
I wouldn't want them to hear how much I hate them because they haven't done anything PERSONALLY to me. Just the image, management, and concept I don't like; which in reality is what I'm really angry about. Not the members in general, which when people backtalk members in groups I truly don't get why.
You don't know them personally and never will you can't HATE them. You can be indifferent or not a fan, but I don't see how you can personally attack them.
The fans who talk like that make me crazy. Sorry this was so serious, enjoy some weird Amber.

How mean
From Sayumi's blog:
"I tried my best to try to get a cute angle though (lol) ↑↑
or well
you can say whatever you want about Sayumi today
but you can’t bully me with “Today’s not the only day your face is swollen!”
That’d be just too mean (;_;)"
I can't believe how many people like to pick on her. Such cruelty, you don't have to like Sayu but at least RESPECT her.
She likes Ogawa Mana <3

I AM SEEING f(x) IN LA BITCHES. HELL YEAH.
Got a nice 1st floor side seat :3 So I'll see them on a angle but better than being in the back/ 3rd floor. I was on the phone and ticketmaster.com at the same time. The guy offered me 2nd floor but got the better ones. It took me exactly 1:47 to get them. By then the whole entire first floor was sold out. DAMN!!! Those stupid Suju tards. Have no taste in awesome music :(
What's gonna suck is I'm sure their set will be short. Probably the main songs (LA chA TA, Chu , Nu ABO, maybe Mr. Boogie) Possibly might throw ME+U in there, there's a dance for it, it was performed on a show too. I want Chocolove, but I know I won't. Seeing as Amber obviously knows English I'm sure her and BoA will do MCs (will they even have any?) and any other English speakers (IDK who else, don't care enough to look either. Maybe later).
I REALLY don't want to sit through those boyband's setlists, but for my ladies I make the exception. Unless they come out earlier, I'll end up leaving after them depending on how early. I mean the only others I even have a SMALL interest in is SNSD and BoA (she'll do her shit English stuff though), but not enough to make me care.
OMFG, I can't believe I'm flying half way across the country to see them. So dumb, but worth it. I mean how often am I going to see f(x) live??
I need 4minute to come here nao.

Dear f(x) stylists,
I just happened to be watching a huge list of Nu ABO perfs and have this to say:
AMBER IS NOT A LUMBERJACK
Nor is she from the '70's and dresses in fucking denim jackets.
BUT she looks amazing here, and I like the curls better. Everyone looks hella good in this perf, I have no complaints on these outfits. I'd personally wear Amber & Luna's. But Sulli's shirt is too cute.
KTHXBAI,
Lynn<3
(Bad screenshots are bad.)

Upscale = stupid
Nuh, why do people upscale things? It just looks stretched , not better.
Click to see horrible quality.
Berryz Koubou - Maji Bomber - Upscaled
Maji Bomber - What it should be
Looks better, not great cause the source sucked, but not as bad.
Here's not upscaled 720p quality, what an improvement!!
In other news, Ji Yoon is looking great! Please let her solo song come soon, probably after the Japanese promotion.

Terracotta Pie
I think I found my love for System of a Down again! I gave up in general on rock music sometime mid-2007 deleting 70% from my computer and selling 90% of it off. I've opted for female singing almost exclusively, odd how that happened. I'm female, and for whatever reason have no interest in males (as in music!). The only stuff I continued to listen and buy were: Duran Duran, Depeche Mode, 3OH!3, and G-Dragon. Kinda sad :'(
I was digging through some old boxes and found my "Hypnotize" album in it gave it a listen and remembered how much I used to rock out. I wonder where that love went? I can't understand why I nearly left all male singing behind. I think (this is probably stupid, but I know nothing about being a fan of Johnny's,etc) that because female singer's can have varying vocal ranges, sexy photobooks, and fashion I can relate to. Do male singers/boy bands do photobooks?
This is for sure something to think about. Kinda goes back to my dislike from this post.

Lotte Girls
Track 1 is titled "1234" and starts with an easy intro, leading into slightly altered vocals and some catchy arrangement. My favorite. Then comes main track "Kiss Me" with the same repetitious and catchy lyrics, the video is somewhat annoying with altering scenes. Reminds me too much of T-ara's "Bo Peep Bo Peep" video, but shouldn't take away much from the song. Next hit's "Kuài Lè Bù Si Yì" sung in a chorus/group effort that wasn't as amazing, a basic ballad track really. Reminds me of some bullshit Morning Musume might release in China for a debut. Track 4's "Yòu Huò" decides to go back to the sexy sound, if not more than before. The Chinese sounds good here, the girl vocalizing at the end hits me as one of the better vocalists.
The group needs some work, but wasn't all as horrifying as my friend made it to be. Something to listen to on a playlist mixed with other similar type artists, but nothing to deathloop on your iPod. I will say though; I don't know if any of the girl aren't Chinese or native speakers or which one wouldn't be. But the Mandarin needs some work.
PS - The stupid fonts on the cover bother me. :/
Nuggets
Never thought I'd see them in the same pic. All we need is Ji Yoon & CL in this and there's my fave female rappers (kinda). Throw e.via in too and we have ultimate awesome!
The title is proof I can't name things.

I wasn't sure on the hype about M.I.A. and "Paper Planes", but gave the new album a listen, and wasn't disappointed. I went and bought it yesterday!
The crazy soundf( effects were really interesting and the lyrics were really out there. Has really unique elements in it. If you're just browsing through, watch this for the amazing.
Faves:
Steppin Up
& Illygirl <3. But no streaming is out there, Youtube fails now. Sure it's copyright :/
The yelling in the background is really interesting, I'm not one for lots of swears in a song. But for some reason the "fuck you" would change the song without it. It's probably my favorite part, that and the chanting type-ish not really lyrics.

Scratch that
I'm not going to be blonde anymore. Dyeing my hair Sunday, cutting short & going black.
This about sums it up
I think this short article written by someone on f(x) just about sums up why Amber is so popular (not like I have a problem with that :3)
"Amber - picked up by S.M. in Orange County - drew cheers with her fly dance moves and smooth rap skills. Displaying rhythm, flow and speed, the Chinese-American tomboy performed a bit of Fort Minor`s "Believe Me" and then showcased her ability to deftly splice her rap into the chorus to the group`s debut single, "LA chA TA."
Her low and brandied vocals, slick razor-edged bob and hip wardrobe are sure to attract boys who want to dress like her and girls who are going to crush on her.
When asked how she first started rapping, the 16-year-old girl group member, an admirer of rap artist Nas, answered: "Rap was originally a hobby of mine."
"girls who are going to crush on her. " I'll quote my friend on that "I may just have to go bi for her."
How interesting to see on non fan's perspective on her. Honestly I never viewed her as a tomboy, she reminded me alot of Yoshizawa Hitomi, who originally was to be promoted as a "cool intelligent beauty" but the song Mr. Moonlight changed that. More so I think it was people's opinion on her hair/rapping that associated her with the tomboy image. Though since the hair makeover she's lost that some. Either way she's pretty amazing, as all the members are.
I was watching RadioStar (think Utaban) from 06.23 (don't forget the epic llama thing previously) particularly when Amber got some time too talk she seemed so quiet. Then she sang "Loose Yourself" and I was like 0_0. WOW, pretty good. Not as phenomenal as e.via (for me). But then the hosts started picking on her math skills (I think? Or was it her korean?) she seemed so embarrassed. 9 x 8 = 27 lol. Her laugh made me smile. Youtube that show, Vic's epic stretchy leg skills were cool. Krys & Sulli's "Womanizer" dance was so cute <3 Luna also got picked at a bit too. Most kpop groups to me don't seem variety material but f(x) pulled it off.
To that I applaud them *claps*
Also, kudos to the group for doing Chinese <3 and some English.
PS - I just realized I'm 14 days older than Amber. I don't feel like we're the same age, I feel so immature in comparison!
PPS/edit: On the NU ABO comeback stage (05.07 KBS Music Bank) , did anyone hear Amber's mess up? She mixed the lyrics with the line after, XD Probably nervous. Youtube it at 2:59-3:04
