Favourite Songs Part 2

The second post of my series "Favourite Songs" if you are interested in the first post, you can find it HERE. Unfortunately I can only do updates via my iPad, so I'm not really in the mood to update my blog more frequently. The insurance office hasn't contacted me at all and it's now week 2 without my lovely macbook! T_T

Let's start:


TeenTop - Walk By
This song is good if you want to have a shopping tour or just sit outside on the balcony with friends. *haha* Chunji why are you so cute?! >_<


D-Unit - Thank You
It's a very relaxing song. A friend of me, Mel, posted it on my facebook wall and I was surprised that the video is so freaking cute. *haha* I don't know all the names of them, but I think they all really look good together, even when they have a new member now.^^


B1A4 - What's Going On
I think, that I like it just because of that cute video. Excuse me, but I like videos with poppy and cute colours.. *haha*


PURE - I Still Love You
Just the emotions in this song.. I like the lyrics and I LIKE THE PORSCHE in that video. Most favourite parts are with that beautiful car. xD

And last but not least


G-DRAGON - Michigo

Big big love to this video and song. It's entertaining to watch and entertaining to hear, 'cause you can't just sit and listen to it, you have to dance to that song. Thank you GD for this awesome song. xD

Thanks for listening, now I will try my luck with studying...I hope I will get good grades.. whatever..-__- hopefully I can get a good grade or just get the sign "PASSED" on it. Moreover..I will be on a short Hiatus till the end of the week...280 pages of my script just won't be easy to get in my head.. Get your fingers crossed for me please ^o^

Time passes so fast~



Can you remember our long-ass planning in 2011 and now our planning in 2013?
Can you remember the happy times, and the sad times we were there for each other, caused by some idiots?
Can you remember that we overslept and missed the flight to Paris for one day and booked a Last-Minute Trip to Milano?
Can you remember the funeral and the tears we cried?
Can you remember the sad and also happy Christmas 2011 we had with your brother?
Can you remember when we both booked the flight back to Korea?
Can you remember when we met in Frankfurt Airport after a longer time?
Can you remember the awesome time we had in your hometown (and everywhere we went)?
Can you remember when you brought me to the airport with dooyoung and his friend?
When your mom called and I had to suppress my tears?
Can you remember when we were sitting at that coffee shop and I couldn’t stand it anymore, said something and you understood me wrong?
Can you remember what a huge fight we had?
Can you remember, when my dad called your phone and I had to cry so hard, cause I knew I wouldn’t see you for a year or longer? 

Can you remember the time you were in Nepal and you called me?
Can you remember as we dreamed about your internship at my company and can you remember as the DHL Express Envelope came to your house with the contract?
Can you remember our last conversation, of you meeting our Federal President Mr. Gauck?

 I remember every little bit of it and I’m really unbelievable proud of you and me. I treat our friendship as one of the best things what happened to me so far in live, and yeah.. I’m old enough to say that to you. Thank you for always being there for me and you know that the same goes for me. Whenever you don’t feel well you can always count on me. I’m happy that we can work together and stay together so soon and…Oh my God… the time passes so fast…In nearly 25 days you will be here and I can’t wait anymore..!! <3

Favourite Songs Part 1

Good that I can use the laptop of my dad, to blog at the moment. I would be restless, when I couldn't update my "lovely" blog, after I put so much effort in writing my previous posts. So here are my favorite songs at the moment. I love to listen to them in my car, when I drive. Or just dance along in my apartment to them. Have fun listening to them. ^___^



Super Junior - Sexy Free & Single
I love this song! I really like it. The style they have and the high quality the video was made. SO WOW! And I love the topless-ness of Leeteuk *hahaha*. I'm a huge fan of him, not just because he is the leader or he has a pretty face. I like his style and his personality he shows in the TV shows. (I know I know... it's more acting, but have you seen this old video of him trying to park a car in the parking lot? Kangin and I think it was Sungmin were also in that car and they had a hard time dealing with the non-existent experience of Leeteuk. I clearly remember how Sungmin was always saying "I don't want to die, I don't want to die." hahahahahaha It was hilarious!!!)


Shinee - Why So Serious
Even though Jonghyun is not in this video I like that song so much. It's always in my head, when I'm outside, or at work.. Haha.. Why soooo seriouuus~ *sings* I like the style from all 4 of them. But Taemin will be my favourite! I don't know, but his style in the video and the hair *-* ...Y R U SO FU***** PERFECT?! I think I will have a heartattack, when he will be this perfect in every upcoming video.. -_-

 
4Minute - What's Your Name
Everytime I watch this video, or listen to the song I feel good. It's the perfect song to dance to. I mean.. I can't dance like them.. or more I don't look so sexy like Hyuna (Like HELL! Who can be sexier than her?!). I remember that a friend of me was in the same school as one of them... I think it was the dark haired one (who I can't remember the name of -_- Moreover I'm not good in remembering names at all.. Shame on me..) That video is definitely one of my favourites and it has to be here.

 
Ubeat - Should Have Treated You Better
That the first subunit of U-Kiss can take me under their spell like that..I never thought it would be THIS awesome. I love, that it's more of a slow song.


TARA N4 - Jeon Won Diary
A very colourful video, I like TARA also..but I had to listen to the song about 3 or 4 times till I liked it. Now it's on repeat on my iPod since 2 days.. @_@ BTW somebody knows who the boy is who has done the short rap part?

I hope you like the videos, or I could show you videos you didn't even know.
Have fun listen to it and have a great start of the week! ^__^

Great Day in Seoul

One of the best things, as I was in Korea, was that Me and 가영 finally met up with 문수 after a long time. A/N He's living in Germany too, but we never had the time to meet...so we met in the capital city of South-Korea - Seoul. Hahaha we had a lot of fun, when we made a short sightseeing trip. The weather was really bad, it was hot and it was raining a lot...and too humid for me @_@

I hope you like the pictures. Even when it's just a really small post via my iPad. Also I'm really sorry for the bad quality of the following pictures. @-@

P.S. I was taller than both of my friends xD I never recognized it...OMG...strike!! XD ㅋㅋㅋㅋ and myhair was so fugly at that time ㅠㅠ Please don't mind my shitty appearance.....









So much good (korean) food ~ Pt. 2 Homemade food!

Now it's time to tell you about the best homemade food I ever had (except that what my mum cooks! ;D). I have to tell, that I never met a person so far who puts SO much effort in the food she is making...I LOVED THE FOOD YOU MADE GAYOUNG-UMMA!! (Gayoung when you read this, tell her that asap!) Maybe because I wrote so much in my last Post, I only want to show you what she made for me on my birthday (and departing day) T_T and at another day for breakfast or in between. *haha* 

I can only say, thank you for letting me in your home, letting me stay in Taeyong's room for a month and thank you for cooking such a good breakfast/lunch/dinner! I enjoyed everything you made and I look forward to meet you again in near future (I hope..I know!)


Here are some pictures of the homemade food:
You can see salty seaweed, rice, different sorts of kimchi, mushrooms, some beef, omelette and the birthday soup! I loved it. That was the best birthday gift I got!^^ I wanted to eat this soup a long time before, but you made my dream come true Gayoung-umma! *__*


In the picture above you can see another breakfast we had. It was also omelette, different sorts of kimchi, and a yummy hot soup. ^^ It looks like a tiny breakfast, but when you eat rice with all these sidedishes, you get a really really full tummy (yes I gained weight in my time in Korea.. unbelievable!) *haha*

And last but not least...korean peaches, I also forget the name of them, but WHO CARES when it's so sweet and yummy! *_* I loved to eat it, when we were sitting in the livingroom and watching TV together..*haha*

THIS was a rather short Post from my side. I hope you understand it, that I really can't do long a Post when I'm typing with my iPad..-__- It doesn't feel right to type like a maniac on it and I hate it that I can't use a normal keyboard...

What do you think? Would you like to eat this great breakfast too, or don't you like to have warm breakfast in the morning? From my side, I have to say it's normal for me to have warm breakfasts on sundays (English breakfast! ;D ).

See you next time! :)

20 Facts about me

I've seen this tag all over the blogging world and have read every single one with interest because getting to know the blogger behind the blog is one of my favourite things to do! I have such a natural interest in other people and how we're all so different so I thought I'd share with you some facts that you may not already know.

1. I was born and had first dark hair, then it turned really bright unbelievable ugly red and then turned blonde in the age of 6.
2. My favourite colour in the whole world is pink, but it's my least favourite colour to wear.
3. I can't really choose between a cat or a panda as my favourite animal.
4. I'm an avid cook although my speciality is 'homely' type meals and I still can't get the hang of cooking portions for just two people! I usually make enough to serve a family of 5 or more.
5. I'm often mistaken for 16-17 years old. I'm actually 25. And a half...
6. I spent most of my early teenage years constantly on myspace, my addiction to internet started then really.
7. I've been blogging on and off since I was young, starting out on beepworld  which I go back to read now and again just to cringe at myself.
8. Growing up I just had a rabbit - what I called Klopfer, cause it looked like the one from Bambi.
9. My mood is directly affected by the weather. If it's sunny I am happy all day, and if it's raining then nothing can consol me.
10. I hate feet. I will flip out if someone puts a bare foot in my personal space, especially near my face. I even hate my feet.
11. I've had my nose and lip pierced twice but took them out after a few years, always fancied getting my tounge done but never worked up the courage to.
12. I've had 3 bigger surgeries so far (left eye, left knee and my teeth....)
13. The feeling of clammy hands and cool skin is one of my favourite things.
14. I can be sent to sleep instantly by someone stroking my neck and my hair.
15. I am actually addicited to chocolate, I get whitdrawal if I go a few days without eating any.
16. I dream of owning one more time a rabbit and a cat who I would call "Fluffy&Muffy" one day. *haha*
17. I'm terrified of flying but have somehow managed to visit places in 3 different continents, including taking the 16 hour flight to South-Korea.
18. I'm studying at university AND working full-time in a company, so I can spare a lot of money for my dream.
19. My hair has been thousands of different colours and cuts, when I'm bored with life its the first thing I go to change.
20. I keep an organized shopping cart throughout my grocery shopping excursions. I detest a messy cart.

So much good (korean) food! ~ Pt.1 Restaurant food

I know my korea related posts are constantly very long, but I HAVE to share this with you! I decided to do this post mostly, because I'm a big fan of korean food and I don't know if you know the typical korean food... soooo have fun reading it. ^o^
BTW a lot of pictures I took were food pictures! I think I took more of them as I took from me xD 

So today I start to introduce you to some restaurant food (I had to cut it down in categories so it wont be too long to read for you):
We were at a lot of restaurants...I don't know why, but maybe because we were at lunch or dinner time always somewhere else or it was too much of a hassle for Gayoungs mum to show me around, go shopping and then cook. I mean I didn't want to be a hassle for myself and I didn't wanted her to be under pressure to cook food just for me. No I was alright with what I ate in the restaurants! :)

Lets's start with Mr. Pizza! The logo looked a bit like "Pizza Hut" in Germany. *haha*
All members of 2PM had a special pizza (and very handsome photos for this advertisement!!!). I think Taecyeon's pizza was the most popular among  them..
 

So we tried the Taecyeon-Style pizza. We had a different one too, as we were 2 times at Mr. Pizza, but I can't remember what pizza we ate then.

Taecyeon pizza photo vs the real thing = Looks excactly like in the picture! So yummy!!! When you order a pizza you get a sauce too AND free water!! It's the average way that you get free water in every restaurant you go to in Korea - it's different from Germany where you have to pay to get water...--'
Doesn't look the pizza delicious?! *_* Turn back time for me! I need this pizza NOW PLEASE! >.<

In the evening we met some friends of Gayoung and went for some Chimaek (Chicken + Beer = Chimaek). I love chicken and it was so yummy and so cheap! It's also very popular to go out and have this with your friends. Why can't you offer so good chicken in Germany Mr KFC?! Go and learn how to make good chicken, like in Korea! Uhm.. more.. what is KFC when you can go for THAT chicken?! D:  They know how they do it, exactly right! Yes yes!
When you are in Korea then TRY IT OUT (and when the weather is so warm as in the time we went to have some, then sit outside! It's more fun to watch the other people walking by! ;p ) !

 
Favourite food: (SAMGYEOPSAL)! You can eat it in Germany too, but that's more expensive than in Korea (around 11-15€ -__-). So visit a good korean restaurant and taste it. You can choose between so many different things, that I'm sure you find something what suits your taste! I think I will eat it this weekend....mmmmh >_<

Looks great, huh? A lot of beef, then pickled onions, salad and a great cold soup were served...

As I was with my fried Youngseo in Lotte world, we decided to have a typical meal for lunch!...Crap.. I forgot what the name was...Nevermind, let me explain what we had done: You wait till the soup is cooking and then put the meat and the vegetables in it. Kimchi will be served everytime as a sidedish, you never have to order it ;D

On another day Gayoung and I stayed the night in an old korean guesthouse in Seoul (we were sure we wanted to go drinking, so we just stayed the night in Seoul and not driving 1 hour back to Incheon) the next food we had was Bulgogi..Yeah we had it as our lunch, because we slept too long to have a big breakfast. *haha* Shame on us Gayoung ^.^


As I told you before in my Post Visiting Taeyong & Imjingak I wrote about the Menu we had with Gayoungs Grandparents and Parents. I wish I could turn back time so I could eat it a second time. So here again the whole Menu:

So it was 도토리 묵 그리고 김치 (Dotori Muk and Kimchi) nomnom...

There were a lot of 김치 그리고 열무김치 (Kimchi and Yeolmu-Kimchi)..After I tasted this Kimchi I really loved it. I mean okay.. I loved it before, even the supermarket Kimchi what you can buy in evey Korean Supermarket here, but...it was really unbelievable great!


That was it.. my little Post about the food. It's not all the food I had, but I really didn't want to Post everything I had.. ;D *haha* As you all know, I'm without laptop and photoshop at the moment, but I'm sure that I will post something. Look forward to the "So much good (korean) food! ~ Pt. 2" when I tell you in a short Post how the homemade food of my friends Mum was! *__* >>

Now I will go out and have some Samgyeopsal..*haha*
Have a great evening!

Visiting Taeyong & Imjingak

Hey everyone <3 :D

This is now my second post about my time in korea! I hope you liked the first one. :) When you haven't read it yet, then please do it. Haha. Here you can find it!

CAUTION: Picture heavy post!!!

Today I wanted to share some photos about my tiny trip which I made with my friend Gayoung and her parents. It was really hot on that day, but we made a full-day trip to her brother, who is in the korean military at the moment, to 임진각 (Imjingak) and to her grandparents. Like everyday I had awesome food, but I felt a bit shy when we were at the army. To be the only foreigner it felt somewhat strange. However! :D The trip was very interesting. I learned a lot about the korean history and the military rules.

Here are now some impressions of my trip:


First Impression of Incheon in the morning.

We haven't had breakfast so Gayoungs mother bought some 김밥 (Kimbap) for all of us. I had one with tuna and the woman from the shop were very nice, cause I couldn't decide what I want to eat. They had too many options  xD

Sightseeing platform in 임진각 (Imjingak)

The memorial sign 기념비 (Kimnyeombi)

Me in front of it.. >_> I was too white...

Yummy! 팥빙수 (Pat-Bingsu *_*)

The coffee we visited had the name "A walk in the clouds".
It was cute and a lot of tourist were there xD

평화의 종

Gayoung and me in front of it. ^_^

In front of the Imjingak sign

Like a real tourist! *haha* Taking photos of everything^^

On the way to Gayoungs brother. "Say hi! ^o^"

Our food what we bought for Gayoungs brother. Chicken!! *_* You have to know, that I'm really chicken addicted! I can eat chicken everytime and everywhere.. hahahahaha

We took the pictures above, as we were having fun in the time we visited Gayoungs brother.
We had done more "stupid" pictures but thats just for family and my friends. ¬_¬'

When we arrived I had to tell one of the military guys that we want to see him. He didn't understood at all and I was kind of helpless^^; After that he came with one of the higher ranked military guys and had to laugh, cause he was so embarassed that I was there xD SO CUTE TAEYONG! haha 
After visiting Gayoungs brother we went to visit her grandparents and her aunt. WOW! I never felt so frightened before that I make a mistake! ^^; But all family member I got to know are very kind and very understanding that I couldn't speak well korean..(I'm trying hard to study a lot!!) Gayoung showed them her "Dirndl" and they liked it so much, that we took "family" pictures together.. haha 
That awesome trip endet with a huge family dinner with traditional korean food! *_*

Here's the whole menue we had! Too much but very delicious.

도토리 묵 그리고 김치 (Dotori Muk and Kimchi) nomnom...

There were a lot of 김치 그리고 열무김치 (Kimchi and Yeolmu-Kimchi)

The dessert was 송편 (songpyeon).
It had an interesting flavour but I don't think it will be one of my favourites! ;)

So this was it..my 2. Korea post (pic overload and a lot of food porn.. haha). When you do have some questions, then you can ask me! (: The next posts will be also Korea related^_^; I have to much to write about my experiences there.
Are you even interested to know about my time there, or should I write about something else? Write a comment what you want to know, I'm sure that I can give you good advices when you want to visit Korea! haha :)

See you in my next post^_^Here you can find it!

My new and first real Blogdesign ft Taemin v1.0

Okay it was time to change my layout. I couldn't look at my old one anymore... -__-
So I asked my friends if somebody has time to do me a header (yes yes.. when i have my new laptop I will create the header-images by myself) ^^;



Here is it. It's with Taemin from Shinee. I don't know if you guys know him, but he matured so much the last years and I think he is one of my favourite singers, since the beginning of this year.
He doesn't look like the little boy he was at the "Hello" Video from Shinee. Damn.. why did you grew up so fast?!

Here's a picture, so you know what I'm talking about.

He was so cute back then of beginning of Shinee, but already matured when he was I think 2011 in Paris at SM Town. He had an awesome look with his red hair.


But NOW he is soooo mature and...


unbelievable handsome!!! *muhaha* xD


I just wanted to introduce my new design and now I will work at my second korea blogpost for you! :)

I hope you like that design, or should I change it maybe?

South-Korea ~ The First Days

Hey everyone!

When I thought about writing about my time in Korea, I wanted to share it with my friends. My friends in Korea are awesome people! <3 And unfortunately most of them can't speak german, so I decided to change the language, that they can understand it better.

First of all I want to say a big THANK YOU! Thank you for the awesome time I had! Thank's to Gayoungs Family that they threated me as one of the family members! <3 I loved that I got so many impressions how a korean family lives and all small things I couldn't get to know when I wouldn't know you. Thank you all! 

My friend Gayoung and I met in Frankfurt Airport. It was so good to see her after her working holiday time and german classes...it took us 8 long months to meet after christmas eve! I really missed her! 

So..what to do when you meet, had no breakfast and its lunchtime?
Right! You get foooood! *_*

wraps and white whine-water mix *yummy*

When we were at the plane the food was also great!

I had Bulgogi 불고기(on the left) and Gayoung had Chicken 치킨(on the right). The food was served with a small mixed salad, some bread, kimchi <3 and some fruits for dessert!

The beautiful view when we were above Russia.. Nighttime!
All people were sleeping.. except of me.. I couldn't sleep at all! -__-

The breakfast...I have to admit.. I didn't like it >.<
I have to admit I don't like breakfast on airplanes..

After Gayoungs parents picked us up from the airport, we went straight to her home. It was really impressive..The buildings were SO HUGE and so many of it!!! Now I was also a resident of  한화 에코 메트로 (Hanwha Eco Metro Buildings) on the 10th floor. Haha The time flew so fast and we went to dinner. 삼겹살 (Samgyeopsal) <3 The restaurant we had that dinner was the best.. I think we went in the time of my stay 2 or 3 times to it...why? cause it was soooo delicious! Go and visit it in 인천 (Incheon) the name was한우정 (hanu-jeong). You will have a great time and the people are really nice!



On the 2. day we met up with one of Gayoungs friends who I also knew from Facebook (haha at that time I really was addicted to it). Jen is such a nice person! She is one of the friends I made there who can speak english perfectly <3 I enjoyed the time we had together a lot. Thank you 지하 !

What have we done? It was the first time for me to be at a korean shopping mall. This mall is called 코엑스 (Co-Ex) we went for some lunch first, then shopping and then we were at the 김치 박물관 (Kimchi Museum). I admit.. it was really interesting to know the past of Kimchi and the various sorts of it.

So here are some pictures of that day!

On our way to 서울(Seoul) after I got my cool 교통카드 (busticket) so I don't have to pay for it everytime we go by bus!  I really missed my car on the time being, but riding the bus in Korea is really adventurous! xD They drive really fast and when you don't get a seat it's hard to hold on something, when the bus is full @_@

Lunchbreak! We had korean food and japanese I think.. haha

Me at the musicstore couldn't decide which poster I should get for my friend ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

At the 김치 박물관 in CO-Ex Mall. Had a lot of fun! :) ㄱㅅ ㅋㅋㅋ


After the Kimchi Museum we went to do some 스티커 사진 (sticker photos = Purikura). Hilarious great! The store was so tiny!^__^ 

And then to Angel-in-Us coffee to eat 팥빙수 (Pat bingsu = some ice/dessert)..at this hot weather it was really refreshing!!

Waiting for the bus. Finished the shopping haul! :'D

Everything a girl wants huh? :D


First K-Pop stuff I bought...but not for me.. just for my friends -__-

So that was it. I will write more on the next posts. More about Korea and my friends! <3
Hope you liked it! xD
