XXXVIII

I literally am the worst blogger ever, aren't I? It's been almost a year since I wrote here. I guess I just lost interest on blogging and didn't really have anything to write about. But guess what! Today (or night actually) I'm gonna make a new entry. I'm just gonna write anything that comes to my mind so I apologize if this entry is going to be messy.

I quit school! As I wrote before, I changed from game development into studying sound technology. I thought it was going to be the thing I've always wanted to do but nope. After half a year of studying I decided to quit because it really wasn't my thing. It was hard for me 'cause I knew that it wasn't something I wanted to do in my life but the school was so nice. I really enjoyed my time in there. My class was amazing, so were the teachers and some of the things I learned were really interesting. Still not for me tho. Now I'm just sitting at home trying to figure out that I want to do with my life. I've tried to get a job but it's so difficult with almost zero experience. I've no idea what I'm gonna do next spring. Do I apply for new school and if I do that what am I gonna study? So many things I need to figure out.

I went to three different anime conventions this summer and one of them was Tracon in Tampere. I've only been there one time before so it was kinda new experience for me. And I was also doing volunteer work there so that was new as well! I have to say, it was the best convention where I've been so far. I met some great new people, the programs were interesting and I got to meet Simon and Martina from Eat your kimchi! They were amazing and Martina is so pretty I seriously couldn't take it. Q-Q I also saw Die/May and Yohio play live at the convention which was incredible as well! It would've been the perfect weekend if I didn't hurt my foot on Sunday. I don't know what was wrong with it but it took almost a month to recover. :(

I've done a lot of thing I didn't think I would ever do. I wrote before how I was really shy and couldn't even talk on the phone with strangers. Well guess what, I actually went to this kpop-party-thing here in Finland, alone. Yes I went alone 'cause I couldn't get anyone to come with me. I did meet some people there and I spent the night with them and I had a blast. ;w; And I've also gotten to know some new people online. We share the same interests and it's been nice to meet people like that. ^-^

Here's some pictures!

And back to blonde!

I seriously hate trying to organize photos in Blogger. I'm sorry it looks ugly but I spent almost half an hour trying to make it look nice. :'D It's not my fault this is not working properly.

Woah it's almost been a month since I last time wrote something to my blog D: But yeah, I've been busy after coming back from Japan and finally I got some time to tell you about my trip ^-^ I'm gonna make this entry in two parts since I have loads of pictures to show you~ So here's the part 1 of my trip!

I've dreamed about going to Japan almost eight years already. I was supposed to go there as an exchange student but some things came up and wasn't able to go there. Because of that my parents suggested that when I graduate they could pay my trip to Japan since I've done quite well in high school. Well of course I accepted it and started to look around these package tours since it would be my first time in this specific country and I wanted to see as much as possible. I found this one that was ten days long and it was at perfect time since my finals would already be over and there would also be a cherry blossom season in Japan which was always something I wanted to see ´u` Well my mom booked the trip and we went there together last month~

In the trip we had this one group that we met at the airport and we had a tour guide that came with us to Japan and was there with us all the time. We also got two different local tour guides to show us around and tell us stuff about all the historical things. We stayed in three different cities: first in Tokyo for 3 nights, then in Kyoto for 3 nights and lastly in Osaka for 2 nights.

If I had to name my biggest fear it would have to be heights. And I have to say this trip was my very own Fear Factor thanks to the flight itself and all the high buildings we went :'D And oh god those see-through elevators. I seriously thought I was gonna die in some point lawl.

You can click the pictures to see them in full size~

Day 2 (I'm gonna start at the second day since the first one was basically just the flight to Tokyo)

First day in Tokyo! We arrived there at the morning an went straight to some sightseeing since we were only able to get our room in the evening. We went to see the Meiji shrine and the Imperial Palace. Oh an look at all of those beautiful cherry blossoms *-* So prettyy~

Day 3

On third day we also went to look around Tokyo. We went to Tokyo Tower (all the way up to the 250 meters x.x), to Ginza, to a Buddhist temple in Asakusa which is dedicated to the bodhisattva Kannon and then we had a quick stop in Akihabara which I used to shopping, of course x3

A view from the Tokyo Tower~

And another one

Akihabara~

Some cute girls from the temple area ^w^

Day 4

This day we had a trip to Nikko which is a town located on the mountains of Tochigi Prefecture. It was really pretty but the bus ride there was a little scary since the roads were so narrow and crooked. Luckily we had an amazing bus driver who was a real wizard with that bus and got us there and back safely ^-^

Day 5

On the fifth day we left Tokyo and changed our hotel to Kyoto~ But on our way to there we went to see Mt. Fuji and Hakone's active sulphur vents and hot springs. Luckily we got to see even a tiny pit of Mt. Fuji's top since it is known to be a very "shy" mountain and you're able to see it's top only a few times a year ´u`

In Hakone there were this Black eggs that were cooked in the sulphur vent and because of that they turn completely black outside. They're supposed to increase longevity but of god the whole place smelled like the mixture of sulphur and eggs. It was horrible x-x

And then we took a shinkansen or a "bullet train" to Kyoto ^-^ It was pretty nice and I sat next to this older man from our group and he told me all about how the trains were designed and made and stuff, it was pretty interesting actually :0 I've heard that the government has thought about getting one here in Finland also. Yes please!

Hello Kitty x3

This was the cable they used to move the boiled eggs around. So cute :'D

~~~

So many pictures! Now you probably can see why I didn't want to make only one entry about this one :'D But yeah! I'll tell you the rest of my trip in the next one ^-^

I’m sorry I haven’t written an entry for a while ;A; I’ve had some personal issues going on and I also was away for Christmas. But here I am now! I’m going to tell you about my Christmas later but this entry is going to be a little different~

Yeah it’s DBSK’s 10th anniversary today! And looks like it's my 10th entry as well. And that’s the reason why I’m writing this right now~ It has been a long way hasn't it? I’m not really good at writing these kinds of things but I’ll give it a try!

I have been a Cassie since 2011 if I remember correctly. It has been amazing two years for me, I've learned so many new things and experienced a lot of different emotions from time to time. Many tears has been shed and laughs have been laughed but my love for these guys grows every day. I don't see them as idols anymore, I see them as my family. I now have five new fathers and all those fellow Cassies are my brothers and sisters. We watch each other's backs and help those who need our help. We've stood by each other trough hard times and we're going to do that in the future! Well obviously I can't imagine how hard it has been to those Cassies who were there during the lawsuit but I have a huge respect towards them. They are amazing.

Here's a list of thing DBSK has thaught me! It's from another blog but it was so accurate that I had to share it [Source]

DBSK made me appreciative and thankful even for the small things, trust me. They made me think out of the box, and they are the ones who taught me how to freely express myself in words, though most of the time, words aren’t enough to say how wonderful I feel about being a Cassie.

DBSK made me see the beauty of friendship in a much deeper dimension. I am a solitary nature by person but ever since I became a Cassie, I became very active and even made friends not just on the Internet but personally, as well. I’ve met some Cassies who’re studying in the same university as mine and believe me, we felt like we’re long lost sisters!! :”) They now became my personal friends whom I talk to everyday, even if it’s about our everyday lives and problems.

There are so much more but this one’s my favorite… DBSK has given me motivation to move forward, courage to step up out of the crowd and the strength to face and endure hardships as I step closer to my dream. I’m a Med student and everyday the road keeps on getting rougher. And everytime I would felt like giving up, I ALWAYS remember Jaejoong. He constantly tells himself, “I need to become a singer.”As I imagine him, a tone-deaf person trying to make his way to become a known singer is something so moving. :”) Therefore I always tell myself, “I still need to become a doctor.”

Moreover, aside from all these things, DBSK sees to it that I also learn the hard part. I’m brave enough to say… that I have experienced the ups-and-down of being in this fandom, maybe not as much as those who’ve been a Cassie longer than me. I am never a spoiled child and that’s how DBSK makes a difference compared to other groups towards their own fandom.

DBSK were never “always” at the top, they have their own downfalls too and DBSK makes it sure that in every downfall, they are together with us. When the time comes for them to use all their mighty strength to get up, DBSK makes it sure that Cassiopeia stands up with them. I was taught about the importance of victory and most especially, the feeling of being sunken deep so that I will never make fun of other people who stumbled too.

They showed me… that life is never a bed full of roses, even for someone who is so famous like them.

DBSK is so much more than the pretty faces and beautiful voices. They shared to me every bit of them, even their souls and passion. It amazes me… that whenever they have the chance, they remind me of how much they love me and how grateful they are to have me. That it makes me question myself: “Do I have the guts to leave these boys’ side?”

Oh and some genius made this one! All those words that are written with caps lock are songs from DBSK~ (Except the first and last part)

Cassiopeia~ Always Keeping The Faith through hard times, PROUD of your love for music and each other. We miss you so this is a Song For You, to help you Ride On into the future as Survivors, and 'fly to the top'. You gave us Somebody to Love, and took away the Darkness on our eyes, replacing it with the Beautiful You. Whatever They Say, we don't care because Together we Never Let Go. Why Did We Fall in Love with You?Because you're the Last Angels... The Rising Gods of the East. We are your Little Princesses and princes in your Magic Castle. We Believe that our Love Is...Unforgettable and One of a kind. We may be Choosey Lovers but I Love You With All My Heart, Mind and Soul and that is My Destiny. When We'll Be Together again and hear TVXQ as 5 saying Thanks To Cassiopeia, Holding Back The Tears will be impossible. As all of Cassiopeia CLAP, I believe a Rainbow could light up the Sky above us, one family holding red Balloons. I'll Be There, Lovin' You; and A Thousand Years' Love Song won't be enough to tell our tale. Nobody Knows how to Begin to say thank you to you, 5 men who are Superstars that can make us Weep and laugh and smile with them, although we may be a Long Way away. Nine years since debut this year and counting, we'll Stand By U for many more; there is no Dead End in our future. The Fighting Spirit of Dong Bang is Eternal and our hearts are never Empty when we see those 5 stars Shine on stage. From Hug to Mirotic, to Keep Your Head Down and In Heaven, through thick and thin, our Love Is Never Gone, it's Evergreen and Always There, Remember that. Although we can't Stop the Time, we Promise we'll be with you as time goes On and On, walking with you Step by Step. Because Tomorrow Will Come, we'll Stay with you Tonight and every following night, even the Rainy Nights... awaiting the Rising Sun and the Day Moon. You don't have to tell us 'Don't Forget' because our time together is an unForgotten Season. TVXQ and Cassiopeia fit together like a Melody and Harmony, the Keyword to each other's hearts. We Cassiopeians will forever be by your side, whether it be the silent supporters, or the die-hard fans; those of us who are close to you, or miles away. We will go on, cherishing TVXQ in our hearts, our memories, and our lives. As 2, 3 or 5, it doesn't matter. What matters is our love for you, and we will never say Farewell."

"It takes 5 particular 'stars' to create 'Cassiopeia'." We dedicate this to you, to let you know our love.

'Thank You' for being there for me ♥
