Looking Back at EXO's Teasers

Hey!

Other than EXO-M heading back to China, I felt really bored so I decided to re-watch all 23 teasers of EXO. Looking back on it, I still remember before they debuted and I was one of those crazy fangirls just replaying those teasers at least 10 times each and every single one of them everyday. For some reason, even if EXO already debuted, I still never get bored of EXO's teasers. I love every one of them but here are my favourite teasers and my thoughts.

Teaser #1 Kai

• So obviously, this is the first teaser, this is how I got to know EXO
• It's the birth of EXO
• Since Kai was in the first teaser, I had a feeling that he was going to be the "face" of EXO, and he is.
• I the song My Lady. D.O has an amazing voice and I can't wait until the full song comes out.

Teaser #2 Luhan and Kai

• I still can't believe that Luhan was dancing to this. I mean he's got such an angelic face, that it makes it hard to believe that he can dance so masculine
• I really like the choreography of this dance routine
• I thought that Luhan and Kai were completely in synchronization. It must take a lot of work for those two to jump at the same height during the slow motion part.
• I can't wait until this song comes out.
• Good job guys, keep up the hard work!

Teaser #6 Kai

• I loved the effects 
• The colour definitely suits the song Lightsaber
• I don't know if this sounds weird but I loved Kai's outfit, I think it really suits him

Teaser #7 Sehun and Kai

• I love Sehun and Kai together, the two best dancers in EXO-K
• I absolutely love this choreography
• The only problem I have with this is the costume. Sehun looks perfectly fine and everything, it's Kai's costume I don't like. I get their idea of the costumes how it's gold and white, and they're supposed to be "opposite" and everything but, I really don't like Kai's costume. The pants are way too tight, and the shirt just doesn't fit his body that well.
• For some reason, I feel that Sehun kind of looks like Lay here.

Teaser #9 HunHan

• HUNHAN! 
• I love how when Sehun is looking at the iPad, usually it has an Apple (since it's the logo), it's been replaced with EXO

Teaser #12 Unicorn (Lay) and Kai

• The two best dancers, Lay and Kai
• I absolutely love this song (Two Moons), and I'm so happy that it was included in EXO's mini album.
• Key's rapping is so good.
• I'm so sad that they took out "Roll like a buffalo." I heard that apparently it's because since only Kris knows how to speak English, if the other members rapped in English, it would sound really weird
• I found it interesting that at the end of the teaser, Lay lifted up his shirt, but he was wearing another shirt underneath, and then during the Korean showcase, Lay didn't lift his shirt up, it was Kai who did it.

Teaser #13/14 Kai and Sehun

• I really like the plot of the teaser
• Kai and Sehun are truly absolutely amazing dancers

Teaser #17 Kris

 

• Again I love how the costume matches with the song. He's wearing all white, and the song is Angel, so naturally when you think of angels, you think of the colour white.
• It's really cool how in the teaser, Kris flies, and in the music video MAMA, Kris has the ability to fly so everything is like connected
• Kris has huge hands!
• I really like Kris's shoes

Teaser #19 Baekhyun Chen Lay

• What makes me like this teaser so much is that they have Chen and Baekhyun, the two main singers in EXO-M and EXO-K
• If you look closely, Lay actually does that "thumbs up" sign when he tells the two other guys to come. In the MAMA music video, it was revealed that that "thumbs up" sign is the MAMA sign

So, that's it for the teasers. Anyways, I'm really looking forward to a new song by EXO. Don't get me wrong, I love EXO, but MAMA is kind of getting old. I really want EXO to sing Machine because it's my favourite in their mini album. That reminds me, I can't wait until EXO's full album is released, I'm really looking forward to Baby Don't Cry, My Lady, and Time Control. 

That's it for now! Bye!

EXO-M's MINI ALBUM

Hey!

So, remember how I told you that my parents kind are kind of liking how I'm starting to listen to Mandarin songs? So when I asked my dad if I could by EXO-M's new mini album, he was like "YES!" The only problem was that I didn't know where to buy it, so I asked my friend where she got her EXO-K album, and she told me that there's this store in Pacific Mall that sells Chinese and Korean cds. I'm not going to lie, I was at first a little scared because Pacific Mall does have a reputation of pirating movies, but my friend told me that they order their cds, and so I decided to place my trust in her and ordered an EXO-M cd.

Well, my EXO-M album has finally arrived! I don't think I got the new photo card, but it's ok. Here are some pictures.

Anyways, that's the whole album. I have to get back to my studies now. 

Never give up on your dreams and hopes. Bye!

Summer is DEFINITELY here!

Hey!

So, I'll just tell you right now that I do live in Canada, and the temperature in Canada has been so hot. The past few days, the temperature is like 25C. Today is 29C, yes, we broke our record. The worst part of it is that I have to wear a uniform to school, and the uniform is a white t-shirt (which isn't that bad), BLACK pants, and BLACK shoes. Yes, BLACK long pants. Not only that, the high school I go to is a pretty old school, so they only have air conditioning in SOME rooms. I have a class in a portable, and OMG, it's so hot, we opened all the windows, and the door, and it was still hot. No one in my class could concentrate, not even the teacher.

OMG! I hope that this weather ends soon, because I can't write my homework, or even study cause it's way too hot. You know, I'm trying not to use the air conditioner because it's bad for the environment, and we're supposed to be trying to conserve energy, but it's hard to resist. This year is definitely going to be a HOT SUMMER. Speaking of hot summers, here is the music video, of Fx's Hot Summer song.

Hope that you all have a fun summer!

Bye!

Happy Birthday Suho!

Hey!

To start off, I would just like to say, HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUHO! Suho is the the leader of EXO-K and is the guardian of EXO. Congratulations Suho for having an awesome party because you totally deserve it. I've heard that Suho has been a SM trainee for about seven years. Wow... I'm really glad that he didn't give up because if he did, then we (fans) wouldn't be able to have such a wonderful leader.

Here is a link to Suho's birthday party from a fan account. http://kinna-on-a-roll.blogspot.fr/2012/05/suho-birthday.html?m=1

Yes yes, I know that the fan account is really long, but I mean that's good so that us fans know exactly what happened. Here are some of my thoughts:

1. I love how Suho did the aegyo, then all the members pushed Tao to also do the buing buing, but Tao just laughed instead
2. I thought that it was really funny how Kris had to kind of bend down a little bit to hug Suho
3. I absolutely had no idea that Suho would be able to carry Kris
4. "OI! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" I really wished that I would've been able to hear Suho actually saying this
5. Luhan and Suho hugging

It's too bad that SM didn't allow the fans to record the birthday party but it's okay, at least we have a fan account of it. The rest of the blog is just some funny pictures I found online.

Remember Suho, always keep that angelic smile of yours, and never give up. Happy birthday Kim Joon-myun! 

It's late and I have two unit tests this week. Bye! Never give up on your dreams and hopes.

EXO-M Kris's Fashion Influence

Hey!

I'm sure that all you EXO fans out there realized that EXO has already landed in Los Angeles, California. So far, I've been looking at the pictures of EXO in the airports, and I've been noticing that many of the EXO members have been wearing clothes that are similar to Kris's fashion. Here is a picture of Kris at Inchon Airport.

As you can see, Kris is wearing a white dress shirt, black pants, and white shoes. Hmm... I seem to like his taste of fashion with two opposite shades of colour. Anyways, remember that Kris is wearing a DRESS SHIRT. Here are some pictures of Chanyeol.

As you can see, Chanyeol is also wearing a dress shirt. Now you may be thinking, any guy can just wear a dress shirt, but can any guy wear a dress shirt, with a WHITE t-shirt inside, and DARK blue jeans. Hmm... Sounds kind of similar to Kris right? Remember, Kris wore a white shirt and black pants, and although Chanyeol wore jeans, the colour contrast of white and blue, is similar to white and black. But who knows what's going on, I mean I still remember during the Youku interview, Lay said that Kris in EXO-M is the most fashionable, and Kris even said himself that he sometimes helps the other members choose what to wear. 

Speaking of the Youku interview, Tao mentioned that one of Kris's nicknames is Denim Boy because before Kris debuted, there was this Youtube video of Kris and Tao crossing the streets. Let's go back to that  pre-debut video.

*IMPORTANT* Pay attention to what Kris is wearing. A denim jacket, a black shirt, and black pants. 

Flash forward to the present. Here are some pictures of Lay and D.O at Inchon Airport.

D.O (Credit: Newsen)

Lay (Credit: btnnews)

As you can see, Lay is literally wearing the exact same thing as what Kris wore during the pre-debut video. A denim jacket, black shirt, and black pants. To be honest, I actually thought that Lay was wearing the exact same denim jacket that Kris wore, but then I thought about it, the jacket that Lay is wearing has black buttons while the one that Kris was wearing had white buttons, and plus, if Lay actually wore the same jacket, it would be way too big for him. Now, lets go to D.O. Like Chanyeol, D.O wears something similar to what Kris was wearing. A denim jacket, black pants, and a dark gray t-shirt. So it looks like  our EXO-M leader Kris has definitely influenced some of the other member's fashion style, and maybe in the future, we'll see more members becoming Kris's minion. Kehehe.

Have fun in America boys! Bye!

Going to Get a MAJOR Haircut

Hey!

So, on June 6, 2012, I will be getting my hair chopped off 12 inches (30 cm)! *gasps* Don't worry, it's hair, it's going to grow back anyways. Right now, my hair is this long.

I have a small head so, the hair is pretty long. (Please credit this picture to adropofrain-sunshine.blogspot.ca)

My mom measured my hair for me, and she told me that if 12 inches is cut off, then my hair would come up to my chin. Since I figure skate, I really don't know how I'm going to put my hair up in a ponytail as I always do, but I guess I can to a side french braid, or just wear a headband. I've never FIGURE skated with my hair in a side french braid, but I've skated with a side french braid before. Here's a picture of my hair in a side braid.

This picture was taken somewhere in December

I know that it's not the best side french braid, but this picture was taken after public skating, so it probably is most likely going to be messy. Nowadays, I don't braid my hair a lot because I've been pretty busy with school work and figure skating, but I do remember when I braided a side french braid for one of my TEACHERS. Yeah, I know sounds pretty weird, but it was my gym teacher, and she's one of those young teachers who has a lot of charisma, is really easy to relate to so...yeah. 

Back to short hair...

As I was saying before, my hair is going to come up to like my chin, so I was thinking of getting a bob cut. Even if it is short, I think I can still manage to put it in a side french braid. The good thing is that since the haircut is on June 6th, there is still enough time for my hair to grow longer so that when my hair gets chopped off, it wouldn't be very short.

See, Sooyoung from Girls Generation doesn't look bad with short hair. I could get a Sooyoung cut, but I probably won't have bangs because bangs don't really fit my face. We'll see what happens. Before I leave, I just want to show you this hair braid tutorial, it's my favourite, and this is how I learned to do a french side braid. 

 

Alright, it's late so I have to go soon. May all your dreams and wishes come true! ;)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY IU!

Hey!

So far, this week has been pretty good for me, other than the quizzes. How's your week been going? I hope your week has been going just as good as mine.

Before I start, I just want to mention that someone posted EXO-M's interview on Show Champion with English Subs. Here is the video.

 

(Credit: to the uploader)

First of all, I would like to say Happy Birthday to IU. I think that she is turning 19. I don't know much about IU's personal issues, but I do know her songs! Let me just say that IU has an amazing voice, I really like it, and I think that she is very talented. I find IU's voice very unique. Compared to other K-Pop artists such as Taeyeon and Seohyun from Girls Generation, it's very different. If you've listened to Twinkle by TTS (TaeTiSeo), you've probably noticed that Taeyeon and Seohyun's are very "jazz" like especially when they sing high notes. While for IU, her voice is very sweet and soft, and when she sings, it just sounds so pretty.

I really like her latest songs, Peach and Every End of the Day. Here is the music video for it.

Every End of the Day

Peach

Personally, I prefer Every End of the Day more, but it's mainly because I like more of an upbeat song, while Peach is more of a very soft and pleasant song. Happy Birthday IU!

Anyways, it's late now. May all your dreams and wishes come true! ;)
