 I was out shopping for manga with a friend and as we were browsing the store Big Bang's Haru Haru (acoustic version) came on. I heard it and looked over and my friend who then looked over and me. We just laughed and commented how random it was and how we never thought we'd hear Big Bang playing in our town. It was cool though.
 This reminds me of a time when my friend and I were listening to Tohoshinki while driving around last summer. We stopped at a light and from the corner of our eyes we saw this person waving. We were like "what the hell?" and we noticed that the person was waving cause they recognized the song we were listening to. It's fun when you find people who also like KPop and JPop.
 That's all I have for now.

I'm into KPop. I have been for awhile now. It's somehow taken over my itunes library.

I'm always curious as to how people get into KPop.

Here is my story:
  In 2007, I took a history class called Modern East Asia. We had to choose between three movies to write a summary, the choices were Tora Tora Tora, Taegukgi and some other film I forgot. I chose Taegukgi because TTT was already rented. As soon as I watched the film, I was blown away by the quality of film. I knew of those cheesy kung-fu movies that you could buy for $5 at a bin in Wal-Mart, so watching an Asian film with the production values of Hollywood films turned me onto more Korean films.

 The next logical step from film was KDramas, and the first drama I ever watched was My Name is Kim Sam Soon. I was immediately taken by the Clazziquai songs She Is and Be My Love. After that I began a search for Clazziquai's albums and discovered all these sites offering KPop songs and just started downloading, and the rest is history.

So that's my story on how I got into KPop, I am still going through new songs everyday since I have so many discographies from artists in every genre downloaded.

If there was some advice I could give to people thinking about KPop, I would say "KPop is addicting."

I decided to write an entry because I am procrastinating. I have a book review due tomorrow and I have not read the book yet, so I am going to try to wing it. I have done it before, I just hope it works again. I might make a Super Junior slideshow though for youtube and then get back to my review. I have all these pics and I should use them. I have made a hot korean guys slideshow which I will link in case someone reads this post. Done with my ramblings.

Ahhhh my sleep schedule was thrown off track these past couple days. i have been busy watching Human Explorers of the Human Body with Super Junior. On the side they reccomend videos to watch, so of course like a sucker I click on them, and then start watching something totally different. I ended up watching Star King. I was glad I got to watch Star King though, it is a cool show. The duet between Charice Pempengco and KyuHyun made me cry.

So I have been wanting to start something like a blog recently. So here I am on livejournal. I am very excited to start posting stuff online. I am a Canadian university student, majoring in History. I am actually quite a sad history student. Ask me when the French Revolution happened, can't tell you the exact date. I know pathetic.

Edit: So it seems I haven't been posting online as much as I could have. I will try though. Finished that history degree so now I need to start looking for work.
