12th January 2011. The day I met SHINEE.

12th January 2011

There is no way in forgetting that day. After days and days of sadness overload I finally decide to recount the best day of my life here on blogspot. 

Okay..to be honest I wasn't even all that excited. I mean I was excited but girl, I didn't know what I was going to see. But to crush my expectations was Shinee dancing on the stage along with Korea's two other best singers.
Son Ho Young, Shin Seung Hun, Shinee.

This has to by far, the best thing that happened to my life in reference to having fun. And no sarcasm intended...although it doesn't even sound sarcastic. Ah what the hell, words can't even describe what I'm feeling right now. I still have that vibe in me...the vibe I felt when Shinee entered the stage with screeching screams and roars.  It never goes away!!

I arrived at City Town hall at around 11pm. I met my friends Angela, Janet and Sally there. Then later joined Anna.
Here we are waiting to exchange/buy tickets. 


Anna, Me, Sally.

We exchanged and bought tickets in about 3 hours. And this was the final result.
Me and my brothers ticket to the K-pop Australian 2011 Tour. We had the A0 seats.

We headed straight to the concert queue only to realise we had to wait there for at least 6 hours under the burning sun. But we really had no choice as the line started packing up with girls. So us 6 made up a plan. The plan was that 3 of us will go off to the city and buy lunch then bring them back to the other 3 waiting. It worked out fine. Anna, Angela and Janet were off to search for food while Sally, my brother and I were frowning there in the stinking heat.

Waiting.....#1

Just Anna being Anna and me being shy.

Waiting.....#2

With our blue balloons. Angela and Janet.

Waiting.......#3

My SHINEE balloon with Taemin written behind it.

We waited and waited...just randomly glancing at other crazy fans and watched our balloons travel to the sky because we accidentally let go of them. And then around 2 hours before the concert, people from the streets had were filled with curiosity and blurted out "What the hecks Shinee and prounced it as Shin-e." And crazy fans like us shouted back "It's not Shin-e!! It's SHINEE--EEE!!!" Ahh good times.
And then at around an hour before the concert, so about 6:00 news reporters from SBS started filming a couple of us. Then suddenly the news reporter (and she was a lady) walked in front of us and told us to roar in a quiet manner so she can talk over us. So we did...and we had to film that about 5 times (I think) and she said we'll be on the national news all around the world soon. We were darn excited and here we are:

So woop I was on the news because of Shinee. I practically became a world star in better terms muhehe (Yeah not really I know)

We got into the concert hall at around 7:30, and this is how it looked like:

Then on to Son Ho Young
Then..on..to...SHINEE!! SHINEE SHINEE SHINEE SHINEE SHINEE SHINEE SHINEE I screamed so much I remember..and there was a couple next to me looking at me as if I was some orangutan starving for bananas. Ahhhh Shinee.

Then after waving a sad goodbye to Shinee, came on stage, Shin Seung Hoon.

Then there was a finale stage where Shinee, Son Ho Young and Shin Seung Hoon all sang "You raise me up".



The concert finished at 10:30pm or something and straight after the concert finished, the five of us re gathered to do some stalking. We straight away ran to the car park, in which they will come out from and waited. The security guards kept telling us that Shinee already went, and they won't come out. But there is no way us Shawols will believe them. So we waited.
We saw a black car emerging us from the car park and later realised it was Son Ho Young, he gave us his a million dollar smile and waved. All of us screamed although it wasn't Shinee, because he, was darn hot as well!!
After SHW's car was off in to the distance, we waited for Shinee's car. And there it was!! A white van...
My friend Jennie took a godly shot at the van and came out with this....

That photo is too good to be true..I see my husband (Taemin) behind Minho's godly smile. Minho's wearing his Adidas jumper that he wore to Dream Team...Ahhh Shinee..
We chased their cars screaming for them to stop but of course, our legs couldn't follow the speed of their van T.T But we didn't give up. Four other girls joined us in search for Shinee's hotel. We searched and searched and questioned people walking in the road at 11pm and in the end decided it was time to quit.

At 11:30pm in the middle of no where..it was somewhere near the M3 though

I have to say...it was without a doubt the best day of my life. I will forever cherish this day, and I will try my best to keep every memory fresh and live. I miss them so much that words can't describe it...it feels as if they've shot a big hole into my heart and left it for time to heal. I love you Shinee. I hope to see you soon.

YEAR 10

My mum was very disappointed with me, with my previous report...and to be honest, I didn't try my best. So here I am with four workbooks having no idea where in the world to start.
Left to right: School certificate Australian History & Geography, Year 10 School Certificate Science, School Certificate English Study Guide and Year 10 Advanced Mathematics.

So...am I screwed or what? Mum wasn't even thinking when she was picking out the books. She was just like, this, this, this oh and you need this to right?
No mum I don't need tha- and she didn't even let me finish.
Anyway, hopefully I'll be a lot smarter by the end of these long holidays and WOO guess what? I'm working now, I think from the 11th of Jan so now I've got studying plus all the work. This will keep me heaps busy for the next up coming month. 
So toodle doo I'm off to study...let's see how long this takes.

NEW YEAR 2011

We ended up just laying flat on our butts. No church no fireworks but we did watch the fireworks live on our TV. We counted down the official countdown and it was such an tingly feeling. We watched the fireworks go, and wow the finale part where the fireworks bursted near the harbour bridge...that was beautiful, breath-taking and just phenomenal. I managed to stay up till about 2:05am replying back to happy new year texts and this year I received 57 Happy New Year messages!! Woot! I feel popular already!! Anyway that's not my point, my point is that yesterday while I was staying up, I spent my hours very productively cleaning out my mac, my room, wardrobe and jewellery cabinet. So now I feel fresh and new, a different feeling from yesterday. 

I really wonder...what 2011 will bring me. It's just an bunch of excitement, thrill, worries and tension all kind of pushing against each other. We had a big family breakfast and new years bows. It's an Korean tradition, where to bow to your elders and you receive loads of money for good luck that year. We called our relatives and received calls as well!

It was a dead busy morning but the action has minimized to just me on the computer, brothers on the wii and parents talking. Oh!! And when I logged onto my tumblr today, I saw extra 5 followers. It just be my new years gift from tumblr!! Thankyou everyone for following. 

God, help me to fight through 2011, and help me to make it a good year.

AMEN

BYE 2010

 REFLECTING BACK ON TO 2010

I can't exactly say today was all that productive. I mean 11'o clock wake up calls, messy hair, messy room. I was sure that I'll be ready for 2011 by today...but it's just hard to start fresh again. I sound as if I'm leaving Earth to live on another planet or something but it's the bold truth. You see, I was planning this whole 'fresh start' thing five days ago. Something like new hairstyle, with a new room, just everything new. But I've still got the same old hairstyle and on top of that my room looks like it had a fight by itself. I better get cleaning. Oh and today, I reactivated my old, old facebook just for the fun of it. And found a heapful load of old photos. Starting from immature rude fingers, dorky hairstyles, weird fashion, endless amounts of lovos and of course the unnecessary tongues. 

WHAT IS THIS...
@ Abbey's 15th

and of course, the slacking off in class.




There's the unnecessary tongue.....

I learnt so many things in 2010. There are things I regret doing, and things I regret not doing. But nonetheless, it's got me this far into my life. I can't promise anyone that I won't make any mistakes in 2011, but being the mature girl I am (hehe) I am willing to prevent myself from doing anything stupid and useless. This year, I taught myself to trust others more, and that they don't always mean harm. I also learnt that it's not all about receiving and sometimes it feels better to know that someone is happy because of you. I learnt that love at first sight, never does you good and laying your eyes on someone you shouldn't rips your heart into a million pieces. I saw friends come and go and found myself relying on others for my happiness. I should really fix that.

So anyway, today being the New Years Eve, I think our family is either going to watch the fireworks or we're headed to the church. I shouldn't say this, but I much prefer fireworks, but I think going to church would be more beneficial to me. So happy new years eve to anyone reading this, and I hope you have a good day!!

Signing out of 2010, Dahee Kim.

HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS

It's boxing day today. Yes, the day where many teenage girls happen to lose their common sense over 70% sales. With more than half the clothing industry being on sales over 50%, many, too many girls and not to mention, boys are out and about shoving and pushing for better deals as I would like to put it. And yes, I fall into the 0.3% category of "I do not like shopping on boxing day. It's too crowded, and plus only the useless, cheap things are on sale. Not to mention all the feet and hands-on attacks, just...not my thing *Shivers*. But my cousin wanted to watch Harry Potter today. TODAY out of 365 days in the calendar year. He's a real pain the bum sometimes.

So after church we headed of to the Greater Union Cinema in Burwood and tried to buy tickets. The line wasn't only full, but people were screaming and swearing at each other and starting a fight with the girls working there...it just was bizarre. I was expecting busy lines..considering the 7 movies that were released today but...this was beyond busy. It was like, hyenas preying on ducks or something. And I think you and I both know how that's going to sound like.


We eventually bought tickets, and realised we were 20 minutes well in to the movie. So we missed all the lovey-dovey beginning. GREEAAAAT!! And, on top of that, we had to sit in the first row. FIRST ROW. I mean I thought my neck was going to permanently stay at that 150 degree angle and eventually break off.  And what? I thought I was late on watching Harry Potter, like I thought everyone watched it by now. I walked in to the cinema, full of sweating people. There were little kids, the elderly, couples, brother and sisters, best friends and what not. Harry potter must actually be popular among all age groups. Literally. 
It was good, despite all those other people that said it was a shit movie, and they expected more from it, I found it pretty fun and interesting. You know why? Because I haven't read the book, like a real hippie!! Haha!! 
.......and that was my day.

The last 2 Days

We counted the presents my parents received from their friends and my mum is actually really burdened because now she has to prepare everyone that gave her a present a New Years Gift. I mean, the immense amount of wine bottles we received just added on to her burden list.

Christmas Eve was better than I thought I'd be. Christmas Eve and Christmas Day were both a success. Well at least I hope it was. On Christmas Eve we didn't sleep till 3am, just eating...and eating..and eating. Well...come to think of it, we ate late at night on Christmas Day too! Christmas Day we woke up quite early, and headed straight to church because our family was in charge of the carols. We decided to sing Noel, so my brother and I, put in one week of our time to practice. Him on the piano, and as for me, I had to play the violin. It was a success, no, I lied. We made so many mistakes here and there it was so embarrassing but it was okay I guess. That night we gobbled down a Christmas cake. Rather cute I reckon.
I thought the red nose would turn out to be bubble gum, but it happened to be white chocolate. And, that went down my brothers throat. Dammit!!
But it's okay! I ate the reindeer ears ✌ Woo like a real badass! My baby brother ate the eyes, and my cousin ate those greeting cookies.

So that was my Christmas Eve and Christmas Day....not that interesting but better than my expectation.
Toodle Doo~

Sickening

Yesterday, I was home all day. I'm sick. I don't even know how I caught the cold, I mean I never went out and none of my family members are ill in any way. I'm just such an peculiar person. So I laid in bed all day and night. I literally only got up for breakfast, lunch, dinner, water and toilet. I'm actually going to gain some weight this holidays but I guess that's a good thing. I'm 72 pages into my 'to kill a mocking bird' book. It's actually really interesting, maybe because I'm not understanding the book properly, which, I think is possible in every way.

And today, the furniture we ordered came!! We were expecting it after Christmas but either way I was really happy!! They're all really nice. Mum bought me a little cupboard thing, I honestly don't know how to explain it. And, a  beauty stand for, well, my useless girly things. When I was cleaning out my old draws I found so many interesting things.
Like this photo, I remember taking it in year 7. Yes, when my hair was ultra short. That's Amy on the left and Mary on the right. They both changed so much!!! And come to think of it, we've been friends for ages now! Year 7, 8, 9 and through to year 10 soon! YIKES!!
They're going to hate me for this....sorry Amwee and Maewee!!! HEHE. 
I also made a Me-Today yesterday. It's like twitter but korean. 
I like it!! It's cute and stuff :) Muahaha. And today I'm just planning to read and spend time on the internet (as always
Oh and did I tell you? My back..waist-ish area is killing me. Like I can't even walk!? 
UGH!!!
