Strawberry & Cream

Nom nom nom.

Friday was officially FAT FRIDAY for me. Well...sorta.
I had cream on my Frap, but I asked for semi-skimmed milk just in case full fat milk makes me nauseous...don't wanna puke during work now do I. That'll just scare away all the customers.
Friday and Saturday was already dead quiet...
But hey, I felt like a pro at work, doing everything swiftly heh...*still gotta master on how long I should fry fish, sausage, burgers etc. for*
Accidentally fried the battered sausages for too long and they went light brown rather than golden light grown;;;
How the heck am I supposed to know when they're done?! D8

WOO BTS- . . . WAIT, WHAT ARE YOU DOING TOP?!



HOLY SHIT. I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR LIKE...FOREVER!

The mystery of the MV has been revealed, how the car dropped and exploded at the end. A crane! I know it was an obvious answer, but still! Can't believe it produced that beautiful ploom of smoke! It took one take...or so it appears...
Surely other K-pop fans who are media students must've been intrigued as to how the MV was done. Everything was just so God damn beautiful ; A ;

Pushing this all aside this BTS video also revealed that TOP is a smoker - found out when people started talking about it in the comments section.
Hit the 8:06 mark and you'll see him light a fag.
TOP you just lost hawtness points ಠ_ಠ

But then Nikki goes off and tell me that G-Dragon smokes too.
Google hunted down some pics and G-Dragon does indeed smoke.

Le sigh.

At least they can be smoking buddies. Heck they are now dubbed at the smoking couple in my book.

Being Cheapo Asian.

Starbucks in the UK are promoting a Happy Hour Half Price discount on Frappucino's from 13th May till 22nd May.

So being the cheapo Asian that I was born and raised to be I headed off to Starbucks today to grab a Caramel Frappucino for £1.85, Venti. Didn't realise that I could've added extra caramel/coffee shots. Damn, wasted my chance for the perfect Frap.
Note, I have not had a Starbucks for 6 months. Last time I had it was around Christmas time I think, when Starbucks launched a series of 'Festive' blends.
Peppermint Mocha was orgasmic.


The Frap was filling. Very filling. Plus, the British weather did not match the occasion at all. It was cloudy and colder than last week...So yes, my hands were freezing. The large cup was an inconvenience when it came to taking out my wallet and ticket to get on the bus.

Why does this sound like some Starbucks coffee review?

Arrived home to some Vietnamese cuisine. 'Mung'...? 'Mong'...? Whatevs, I don't know how to type Vietnamese. Despite it all being vegetarian based - father is going on an experimental vegetarian cuisine spree, it was all good. Spring rolls and Starbucks helped.
The pic shows how the West meets the East...well half of the West managed to get home in time for this meal.

...I don't know what I'm talking about anymore.

I leave you with BEAST's new MV, Fiction.
So fricken' addictive.

2NE1 DOMINATES THE WORLD!

According to YouTube's statistics section, 2ne1's 'Lonely' MV appears to have become just as popular globally as it has in South Korea. In just 4 days the video has accumulated to (almost) 4 mil views! That's 1 mil views per day!
(As of today around 7pm GMT.)

Never have I seen so much green zones on a YouTube statistic map before *__*

Perhaps I should go hunt down the other K-pop MV's now and see if they got similar results as well...*doubts*

...Back to art coursework.

CL'S CURLED BLONDE HAIR...

IS UNFFFFF



Song is unf too.

Block B is hilarious. Cold busan man JaeHyo, 4D Taeil, Hello Kitty loving Zico, smexy U-Kwon, manly voiced P.O (I shall call him Popo in this blog, his plushie is called Toto, adorbs)...B-bomb and Kyung (no outstanding personas for them yet).

I need their MTV reality show, now.
And their mini-album.

I love you Cho PD for making Block B possible.

A Korean idol (?) group that produces their own music and album? Fantastic. I like. Wait, should I even call them an idol group? Nah, I'll just call them the underrated hip hop group that most biased VIPS dislike because Cho PD dissed GD YEARS ago.

In other news...A MONTH TILL SM TOWN PARIS. CANNOT WAIT CANNOT WAIT (*≧▽≦)

The SM Town Paris Fiasco.



Long story short. In bullet points.
  • Woke up at 8.30am, thought I might as well join the ticket buying just encase friend couldn't get tickets herself.
  • Logged in, phoned my friend, talked to her all the way while getting the tickets.
  • 9am, WTF WHY ISN'T THE TICKETS ON SALE YET?
  • 9.02am, IT WORKS FINALLY! . . . Wait, why am I on the French site?!
  • Whatevs, I'll just use whatever French I could remember from High School...
  • Clicked for 4 VIP tickets and then clicked 'Valider' - used common sense
  • Took forever to load page
  • 'Connection Lost'
  • Refresh
  • *repeated 5 times and always failed* FFFUUUU
  • Clicked back and added the 4 VIP tickets again, clicked 'Valider', waited...WORKED! WOOP!
  • ...Shit, I have to put in my details, now WTF does this French phrase mean...
  • 5 minutes passed, finally finished the personal info, clicked 'Valider' and waited...
  • WOOP! GOT THROUGH! *cheers to friend on phone*
  • ...Wait...WTF. 700+ EUROS?! *stares at amount of tickets* 8?! EIGHT?! I DID NOT ORDER FOR 8!
  • *panicpanic* Posted on FB is anyone was interested in 4 VIP tickets *gets over 20 ticket demands*
  • Tried hard to convince mum to lend me £200 to put in bank so I could pay £700+ for VIP tickets (my bank account had £300+ and I already have £200+ in cash). Successful.
  • Begged dad to drive to the bank in an instant and deposit the money into my bank account. Successful.
  • Dad loiters around downstairs...FFFUUUUU!
  • Dad deposited money into bank like 20 mins later...
  • Clicked 'Valider' on payment page...
  • ..."SESSION TIMED OUT" FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
  • FML FML FML
  • Friend goes: "Don't worry I just bought 4 CAT tickets!"
  • ...YOU LIFE SAVER
According to mother, apparently my face was red when I ran downstairs to beg her for £200, at first she thought there was something wrong with me, healthwise. Oh mother ♥
Note: Reason for me buying 4 tickets is because I'm going to SM Town Paris in a group of 4.
