year-end.

No surprise on how dusty this place has become. LOL. I ought to write more, but most of my time were either spent on either fandom, family or friends. Hence.

Some of these days, I’d like to put into words what I thought about RyoPi leaving NEWS. It was kind of an emotional mess when the news was first announced, though it was not unexpected. Now that things have settled down a bit, and time has passed, I was able to read the situations better.

When the clock strikes midnight today, it will be Taec’s birthday. I had wanted to write a post only about it, but I’d feel bad for Hyesung because I didn’t do any for him. ^^; Was hoping I could write a fic but it gets delayed way too often. Hmm.. Talking about Taec, I kind of miss the old (young? XD) him. It’s not that he changed a lot.. Other than the fact that they were all shaken in one way or another after Jay left, there seems to be an expectations out of him that he always needs to step up to. He still plays around a lot, but there are times when I think he’s holding back a bit. 3 years passed by so fast. The Taec in my mind is the cheeky boy who puffs his cheeks a lot, asks for his glasses the moment his photoshoot ends, makes funny faces coupled with various hand motions without a care in world, and has a lot of aegyo though it doesn’t fit his ‘beastly’ image at all. I’d take Taec the Mega-Dork than Topless, Abs-Showing Taec any given time. =P Which makes me a weird fan, but really, when am I a normal fan anyway? LOL.

In a quick contemplations of the happenings this year, seems like there were a lot of changes taking place. Some good, some bad, but mostly had to happen, I guess. Anyhow, we learned from it and moved on. That’s how life is, eh?

happy birthday, giant baby!

Okay, sorry, Hyesungie oppa. Just had to put this because I rarely talk about Taec here anyway. People forget he’s my favourite member in 2PM. ^^;

Final week of 2011, peeps. Have a good one!

NEWS 8th Anniversary 2011

15th September marks the 8th anniversary of NEWS!

I got wind of this fans’ project via twitter some weeks back and thought it is a nice way to commemorate the important day, as well as letting the jimusho know that, NOPE, we fans do not forget our NEWS even when they are inactive, and that we really miss them.

If you feel like joining in the celebration, purchase over at various online sites which contributes to the Oricon Chart. :)

CDJapan: NEWS – Hoshi wo Mezashite (RE)
