Shinee is in our sunny shores but the chance of me seeing them is zero so they might as well be in Korea, for all the good it did for me.
I really wanted to see Minho's smile in person, i wanted to melt looking at his unbelievably gorgeous face. But somehow luck is not on my side.
I gave up going to see them at the airport because i wanted to see FT at imm. Plus, i already made plans with my friend way beforehand and to cancel it for this is just selfish.
But i was glad i went to IMM because i fell heads over heels in love with FT Island. All five treasures. And especially Jaejin's smile. It was to die for. I think i actually melted over there.
But seeing FT alone didn't seem to satisfy me. After all, how often do kpop stars, popular internationally, stop over in our little dot of a country.
Once every 3 years? Except for lovely FT of course.
So i didn't want to give up the chance. But the no overnight queuing rule was disregarded so it was such a pity that the 5000 over people who went there didn't even get a glimpse of them. The organizers, totally went back on their words.
How? Let me count the ways..
Supposedly Overnight Queuing is not allowed. But still people who i presumed are illiterate still queued overnight. S0 by 4am in the morning, there have already been 1000 people. Congratulations to the people who obeyed the rules and came early in the morning. You get front row seats to dissapointment.
Secondly, number queue will be given out once the album starts selling at 9.30am. But those conspirators that queued overnight came up with the idea of numbering themselves and recording down their names and number so that they will be able to secure that desired 1000 album. This numbering was planned and conducted by the fans themselves, as soon as they arrive. So by 4am, the numbering was complete. So much for once album starts selling at 9.30am. But they called up the organizer to inform of this and was granted permission. So the organizer, despite coming up with the no overnight queuing rule, decided to punish the rule breakers by giving all 1000 sought after passes to them.
Fans are still allowed to see Shinee at the fan sign even without the album. It just means that they won't get an autograph. But then, they made us go from 1st floor to fifth floor and back to first floor again. Quoting that you have to queue downstairs first. And those downstairs said you can go up. And in the end, only those lucky 1000 with the album are even allowed to the roof garden to see Shinee.
I actually have a lot more complains like
the first 1000 fans being gracious enough to scream at the rest to go home. Way to rub it in our faces you silly illiterate unfair pushy bastards.
and the security shouting for us to get out and go home. WHO ARE YOU to tell us what to do?!
And the security using VULGARITIES. Way to show how gracious polite and just plain nice Singaporeans are.
There are a lot more i would like to say but i'm going to stop here.
So at the end of the day, when 4000 over fans when home after being dissapointed and at some point maybe even harasses orally, my simple question is
WHAT THE FUCK? And yes, my WTF is aimed at the messy messy organizers.
You pushed us from both sides. You gave us many different instructions which when followed just led us to being shouted at. You gave us false hope just to eat back your own words and SPIT it at us.
You made us confused by not getting yourselves clear in the first place.
So you know what i say, F you and your hypocrisy.
FT Island had better management who are warm and friendly and who gave the fans that went to see them 100% satisfaction. Okay, you may argue that FT have a smaller fanbase here in Singapore but if having a bigger fanbase means CHAOS like the fans of Shinee (you know, that lucky few 1000), then I'm going to be real selfish and wish that FT's fanbase remain little. Because despite being little, Us primadonnas know our limits and respect other people. And in the end, it led to all of us having a good time.
I don't really hate the organizer or anything, I'm just pissed as most of those that went yesterday would have been. I really wanted to see Minho and the rest of them too but especially Minho with his to-die-for smile. I thought them being in Singapore means i might be able too but i guessed wrong. So you can't blame my irritation for it is not baseless.
But Still, Shinee SARANGHAE.
Oh, and FT too, SARANGHAE. (wished i knew they were departing so i could have sent them off.)
Please come back soon, both groups, with a good management system.

I dunno if i should type my personal thought here, have a separate tumblr, or use my current tumblr??? I want to have separate blogs but i'm too lazy..
Yesterday, i went to the airport to welcome FT Island to our sunny shores. I didn;t get to see them because of some miscommunication between organizer and the airport. I cried because i so wanted to see hongki.
Today morning, i kept replaying the video of their arrival wondering how come nobody saw them when they are just next to us.. I felt so down but calmer, i knew it was a necessary thing since there was no barricade.

WHAT AM I GOING TO DO AFTER GRADUATION?!
It’s started again
Friday, January 08, 2010 @ 10:49 PM
I have this thing, where i can fall really madly in love with something in a short period of time. It becomes obssessive in the form that he/ it would be the only thing i can think about. And i had been living in reality for a while but i am starting 2010 with a new obsession. As usual, a celebrity that is way beyond my reach.
I’ve seen pictures of him so many time before, and heck, my sister loves him. But i had never given him the slightest notice, favoring other members of the group. But then, as usual, where looks fail to attract me, something else did.
I guess its a good thing that looks although pique my notice, it is never the thing that made me go crazy before. There is always something else. And more often than not, that something else is vocal abilities/musical abilities. And, i am very much attracted to guys of a certain type. Brooding but sweet and shy, innocent-like adorable.
And this guy is the mixture of the 2 types. One is his image. The other his true self (i think, unless it’s a gimmick too but that would be very tiring). And his musical ability, my favorite kind- rapping.
And as usual, when that something attracts me, when before i didn’t, he will instantaneously now seem to me as the hottest person in the world. This usually lasts only until my feelings fade but until then, he is the one.
But there is a huge barrier.
One, the distance is immense. It’s across oceans if he’s home. And if he’s not, it’s even further.
Two, there is this language barrier but i am trying to overcome that by learning the language. At the very least, i would be able to understand the songs without the need of a translator.
Third, as if distance and communication isn’t a big enough divide, lets add status to the mix. He is a superstar with many fans crazy over him in as much depth if not more and for far longer. If he is one day looking for love from a fan, he can find thousands or even millions in his home country alone. And double the amount if include neighboring countries.
Would be silly and deluded of me to say i don’t like him as a fan. I think so. Gosh this is driving me crazy. But in a good way. Cause right now it’s keeping a smile stuck to my face and i missed that, being genuinely happy. At least i know liking a celebrity won’t break my heart more that i will allow.
I guess the real down turn to me liking this particular ANGEL is that my sister is among the fans that love him to bits and she was the one that made me know of his existence. And ironically, she is the one who showed me the video of his personality, his shy self that got my heart fluttering and stole it away.
But as they say all is fair in love and war. And celebrity obsessions that make me completely happy.
Right, back to the videos now.
Oh gosh, i feel like hugging him <3
