Quick update
I have dropped out of the face of the earth these days but now I'm back! Back to my beloved net! *hugs the net* Oooh I'm so addicted! I can't live without it! I realised it these days that I was away. I mean I was in a very beautiful scenic place in the countryside but both me & my friend kept missing our pcs & our connections! ^^' I guess I'm a child of the city!
Well, anyway, it was really fun. I don't think I've ever laughed so much in such a few days. I nearly lost my voice from all this! I sound so hoarse now! I have to stay silent for a couple of days if I want to sound normal again but my blabbermouth self won't let me! I have to put all the blame to my friend because she was the one that almost killed me! She has discovered how to impersonate Onew's voice PERFECTLY! It's almost 100% the same! Can you imagine Onew speaking in Greek? Just ask me! Have you ever rolled on the floor to laugh your ass out? Literally? I did! I have gained at least 10 years of life from this!
We were in Trikala. Well, to be exact, we were in my friend's village that lies somewhere in the mountains between Trikala & Kalampaka (where the famous Meteora are). I was amazed at how well behaved the drivers at Trikala were! They were stopping to let us cross the road! It may be common courtesy in Europe but in Greece it's something really rare! The shops were so cheap & I bought a lot of yummy clothes & some even yummier high heeled white sandals! The coffee there was ridiculously cheap too! I'm very very satisfied.
In Meteora we visited just one monastery because the heat was unbearable & it was already noon. Climbing stairs amidst the heat isn't my forte mind you. The place was overwhelming with tourists. Of course! The rocks of Meteora are one of the most beautiful & breath taking places in the world. I even met & spoke to an elderly japanese couple who was there. The old man was so surprised to hear Japanese in the middle of the Greek countryside! Can you imagine his face when he said "Eh?". It was pretty epic!
Me & my friend also helped a young Korean girl learn about her train that left for Athens the next day. The station employee was being really unfriendly to her so we stepped up to negotiate for her. I told her I'm learning korean & that I listen to kpop & she was genuinely both impressed & surprised. Again, meeting someone who speaks your language in the middle of a foreign country is unimaginable!
To sum it up, it was all fun & laughter!
Fandom wise, a lot of things do happen in a few days. I'm still trying to catch up with the news. At least I have watched the Lucifer PV & listened to the album a lot of times. Enough to know how to sing some of the songs by heart. My friend brought her TV & memory sticks that had a lot of kpop pvs & we kept rewatching them over & over. I swear a little more & I would dance to the Lucifer choreo on my own! ^^ And I know the exact moment when Yesung sings "Oooh" in No Other! Yep maybe we overdid it but, contrary to jpop pvs, that I get bored of easily, I can rewatch kpop pvs countless of times. It probably the choreography that keeps my interest. And the pretties.
Now, I was also amazed at Se7en's comeback & I almost shed a tear when I watched the pv of Better Together. We specially went to a net cafe in Trikala to download his mini album. I can't describe the feelings that overcame me. 3.5 years after he is finally back looking fine & singing awesome songs! I missed him & yes, he's still my favorite kpop solo act!
Jpop wise we actually listened to a lot of HeySayJUMP! Their album is fantastic & I definately need to add it to my collection when I can. Time & Shinku are so cool! Favorite songs from the album. The only JE acts I care of as of late are them & Tegomass. Yes, Tegomass! I hadn't realised how much I love them until lately. I totally spazz & sing Tanabata Matsuri when someone mentions the line "東京の空には" *blinks at Natasa eonnie*
Oh & I totally forgot: Jin left KAT-TUN. At least that's what he said his intentions are. I don't care. I did not bat an eyelid at these news. Cause they were so... predictable. Not a surprise. Definately not. Let him go solo & follow his dream. It would be unfair to let the opportunity pass him by & he would totally regret it later on. So, uh, dear Jin. Good luck with your solo activities! If you come to a European country I'll fly to where you are to support you. Okie? ;P
Wow that was a lot! Phew! I'm now back in my village & totally free (超暇だな～) so it's time to catch up on my drama watching! After I watch the 3rd ep of Chef's Kiss though! Some bird *coughmargcough* told me they are probably making a comeback in August so I became excited! Looking forward to it bbs! You'll give me a wonderful bday present! ^^
