I have been looking forward for this episode of Running Man since they announced it.
2NE1 on Running Man!
2NE1 doesn't go on variety often compared to other groups. I read they only go once a year. Their appearance on RM is a long-waited return.
-=Mini Spoiler=-
The girls and cast members were portrayed as aliens from other planets fighting to collect water from Earth. 21 litres (2NE1) to be exact. They are maknaes when they come to variety programs.
Dara were nervous and shy but she was so cute with her antenna hair, not apple or tree hair. HaHa and Gary even mentioned receiving LTE wifi hotspot as a joke. Her antenna hair was so high that they have to open the skyroof to let her hair out without ruining it, hahahaha. I especially love her headband during YG HQ part of the show. After a quick search, the spike headband is by Daniel Palillo.
Bom was sporting her shorting hair and her face still feels different to me. I think she did her nose. She was very protective of Minzy against Kwang Soo.
CL was showing her intelligence during riddles solving missions. It was exciting to watch them fighting on the water platform.
Minzy probably stole the show with her female warrior power. She endured and beat Ace Hyo Ji during the water platform, beat Suk Jin one-on-one on same missions and showed her athletic skills throughout the show.
Taeyang also made an appearance but didn't really say a word, hahahaha.
Overall, it was a fun episode to watch. My favourite show and favourite girl group from Korea.
Click here and watch it on Dramafever, enjoy!
2NE1, DAEBAK!!!

Apparently, I am an ass...
Someone said I was being an ass to them today.
I wasn't hurt. Not one bit.
If I worked harder than you, did more stuff than you and called you out, there is a reason.
I know how busy a Sunday it can be.
I was preparing for the afternoon rush when you are off work.
Just because it is slow in the morning does not mean you can spend 5 minutes talking to customers at drive-thru while the cafe is busy with people.
Call me anything you want, talk to both assistant store managers.
I did it for the store, you did it for yourself.

Monday Love
Gary and Mongji's love...
So sweet when Gary said his feelings for 3.5 years.

Running Man - Monday Couple Edition
Running Man is probably the only weekly show that's keep me happy.
The cast has great chemistry after 3 years.
Although I only started watching since New Year, I am hooked.
I went back and watched some older ones on Dramafever.
They have different guests almost every week. Some episodes span the time of two weeks. It's like part 1 and part 2.
Every member of RM has different strength and weakness, charm and bad side.
I don't want to get into each member as they are easily searched up.
Or just watch the show.
My favourite members are always the only girl in the cast, Song Ji Hyo (Ace), and Kang Gary; also known as Monday Couple. I need to start from the very beginning to witness the love of those two. They are so sweet together. Ji Hyo always acts so "annoyed" while Gary always shows his love. They are a great pair especially when they are always paired during missions. I am not surprised when fans and cast members always usher them to start dating.
Through this show, I expand more music genre. From HaHa's reggae to LeeSSang's (Gary and Gil) hip hop. LeeSSang's music is soft hip hop. It sort of reminds me of 90s hip hop; about love and life. Not sluts, money and violence.
Some wonderful and talented people put together a beautiful MV focusing on the Monday Couple. Well, clips from Ji Hyo and song by LeeSSang. I am glad Gary logged back into Ji Hyo.

Tears = Rain
It's a no brainer that people associate tears to rain.
People cry, tears drop.
The sky cry, rain drops.
There is a saying, "When you are happy, you enjoy the music. When you are sad, you understand the lyrics."
Even though, my lyrics are mostly Korean. The translation helps.
Songs involving rain does describe sad moments.
Coincident or not, titles with Rainy Days are sad but good ballads.
Beast - On Rainy Days
Ailee - Rainy Days
Skylar Grey was right,
"Cause everyday it rains here
Underneath that clear blue sky
Even though it's summer
All I hear is thunder
Underneath this clear blue sky"
As I look outside right now,
the beautiful sun is setting with clear blue sky.
Yet, my heart continues to pour heavy rain.

Memory wipe
We all had those moments we want to forget.
All the pain and regret that hold us back.
Our brain like to store mistakes more than success.
It's a way to make us learn from mistakes.
Yet, we all wished we could erase those.
Those moments that haunt you for a while.
Those feelings that make you inside hurt and cry.
Every now and then, I wished I would lose all my memories of the past and people to start fresh.
Meet people with my current self.
Live in a foreign place.
This is one of those time, I need a memory wipe.
Format of my hard drive and RAM.
The only thing reminds is this blog and diary.
So I can see how much I change every now and then.

Depression + Lonely = Suicide
After movie, CiCi and I had a brief talk about depression.
It turns out she almost took her own life four years ago.
As a close friend of her, I didn't even know about it.
She didn't plan anything. It was all impulsive.
It's shocking that I didn't know about this earlier.
I knew she had depression for a while even in high school.
I am proud of her that she tells this to everybody now and make awareness of it.
I am proud of her that she is owning her problems.
It sure is a big problem; it's similar to bully/cyber-bullying.
I remember when I went through similar situations.
I may not be as severe as CiCi; however, I can still relate to her.
When you experienced a sudden change, whether it was family, school, relationship, work or money, you feel like no one can help you.
You don't want to talk about it because you don't think they care about it or they will laugh at you.
You don't think you can trust them with the issue.
You may feel ashamed to talk about it.
You feel all alone and you are sitting in the darkness all by yourself.
The darker it gets, eerie feelings surround you.
Dark thoughts begin to consume you.
At that moment, I understand and know why some people attempted or even killed themselves.
I may not have reached the point of inflicting pain onto myself or others but I understand this issue better first hand.
No one is there to console you; no one is there to help you; no one is there to comfort you.
You are hopeless.
Suicide from emotions is usually long time brewing.
When your mentality can't take it anymore, you snap.
There is no planning, you just proceed what your mind tells you.
You isolate yourself even more unless someone stops and helps you.
Some unfortunate souls disappear into the world without people knowing.
All we need is someone to care and listen.
It sounds simple, yet, it's difficult to trust others to help us.
Be thankful, you have people like those around.
Be a good friend and listen to their problems.
One day, you may bring them out of their darkness and save their lives.
Because not everybody is that lucky.

Despicable Me 2 x2
I think I am in love the Minions and Agnes.
Yesterday, I watched Despicable Me 2 again.
I got a msg from a friend and surprised by the fact that she was free.
We decided to watch that as we promised earlier.
Second time watching it in a week was just as good.
Even though the storyline is still fresh in my mind, I still laughed at the silly antics by the Minions.
Agnes was so adorable, especially with the apple hair.
She is sweet and cute with a side of crazy when she sees something exciting.
I am starting to suspect Minions speak French or variation/slang.
Overall, it was good fun to watch again.

Skylar Grey - Don't Look Down
Another music gem from the underrated section.
Skylar Grey former known as Holly Brook.
She changed her image since becoming Skylar. She was the original singer for "Love the Way You Lie Pt.2." Her voice is soft and soulful. Majority of her songs may not be happy or rock but you can feel her soul in songs. Her album "Don't Look Down" is the first one under Skylar. Her songs are mostly sad but optimistic. I can't really describe what kind of genre but it's for the best. Soft listening is a good category.
I really love the album since it's soft and somewhat relaxing.
My go-to song currently is Clear Blue Sky.
It sort of describing my feelings right now.
But I’m not saying that I’m gonna start going to church
Not saying that I should pull it to work
Just saying for once I’m putting myself first
Putting myself first, putting myself first
So I'm leaving this town for good,
Gotta gotta get out of this neighbourhood
just like you never ever thought I could,
Never thought I could, never thought that
I don’t wanna stay here
Cause everyday it rains here
Underneath that clear blue sky
Even though it’s summer
All I hear is thunder
Underneath this clear blue sky.

Despicable Me 2
I haven't smiled or laughed sincerely for however long it was. Today was an exception. This movie, Despicable Me 2, put a huge smile on my face and my heart. When I said some of my coworkers about the movie. Most of them said it's a kids' movie and it's childish. Well, Disney Pixar is gearing towards kids. However, it's also a family movie. I may not be watching with my family but I seem to enjoy it as much as the other audience. The movie brings laughter and heart-warming moments. It is especially cute when little kiddies in the audience try to make Minions' sound.
The movie is exactly what I expected from the first one. Making me smile throughout the movie. Minions are so cute. I always love the Minions since the first one. The time, they have more exposure due to their silliness. They are innocent and cute. I can never get tired of them.
Agnes was a great supporting character. She is just so adorable. If I ever have a daughter, I don't mind if she is like Agnes.
Just as the first one, I indulge myself into their antics. I can't seem to stop smiling like an idiot. I don't remember last time I was this happy. Probably, few years ago watching them for the first time.
I wouldn't mind to watch them again. Simple stuff like them sure put a smile on my face.
BANANA!

2NE1 - FALLING IN LOVE M/V
New single from 2NE1!
Dara now has blonde hair. She looks good. She looks younger with that colour.
Bom looks different... can't really put a finger on it.
Minzy and CL looks good as usually.
The video itself is more reggae than their fierce style. It has a soft and fun tone to it. It is slightly different from their big hits. It's a good tune for the summer, don't get me wrong, just not as catchy as first time hearing yet. Listen to it enough will sure get me hooked.

Lies
Am I lying so that people don't ask anymore questions?
Am I lying so that I can avoid facing the problems?
Am I lying so that I can lie to myself?
Am I lying so that I can run away again?
Or am I lying because I don't care anymore?

Summer Feel
Last two days and nights have been super hot in Vancouver standard.
Hitting around 27 or 28.
If gas is cheap, I would drive around with windows down. Since the leather seat is burning up my butt.
A couple of summer songs popped in my mind when true summer feel is here.
Mighty Mouth ft. Soya - Lalala
I can't believe this song is two years ago. The oversized whistle is still awesome. Along with memories two years ago.
Do As Infinity - Summer Days
