Writer's Block? Or Just Plain Lazy?

I want to write something on this blog.  I want to become an active blogger like how I used to be.  But I can't do that anymore... Now, I blog once a month, once a year... There is no in between.  I might be lying if I said I don't know why I don't blog anymore, because I know exactly why.. I am lazy. That's the answer. I am lazy to blog, though I really, really want to. The second reason is because I don't know what to write. I used to have lots of ideas but now I have none. Even if I had an idea, I wouldn''t blog it because I didn't know how to write it. I think my English writing skills have deteriorated ever since I started learning Korean. I am slowly losing my ability to write in English, I can feel it. That is why I need to blog from time to time, to maintain my English skills. But then again, I'm lazy to do so. How did my English writing skills deteriorate, you ask? Well, since November 2013 I spent most of my time watchi...

Growing Apart.

I'm pretty sure I am not depressed. Maybe just a little sad, but definitely not depressed... I have a friend. A close one. Maybe the closest. Well, at least we used to be. This may be all in my head, but I think we're growing apart. We're not as close anymore. We rarely talk (or in this modern world; via whatsapp). I realized one thing; this happened since I started getting into KPOP. Our friendship/relationship isn't how it used to be. We used to talk almost everyday and about almost everything there was to talk about, especially music. But ever since I became a KPOP fan, I changed. My music preferences changed. I don't listen to the songs I used to listen to. And this took a toll on our friendship(?). We don't talk about music anymore. Because my friend hates KPOP and I don't force my friend to like it as I respect one's opinions and preferences. We ran out of topics, maybe that's why we don't talk as much. But this doesn't mean I comple...

Trying Times.

It's May. We're almost halfway through 2016. All my friends are probably aware by now that I am a fangirl. A KPOP fangirl, and I don't hide the fact that I am indeed a KPOP fangirl. I tweet to my heart's content whenever I fangirl. Some of them might think I'm annoying as f***, but to be honest I don't give a s***. Kkkk. So as a fangirl, this month (May) proves to be such trying times for me & my poor fangirl soul. May really tests both my patience and my loyalty.  First, it involves BTS. Bangtan Sonyeondan (I'd write it in korean if i had a korean keyboard). They released a special album on May 2. It was one hell of a album. Meaning: the album is awesome. 3 new songs & several versions of already-released songs. I love them all. Okay so, they made a comeback. And frankly speaking, they do have a lot of haters (and haters "love" them because they're awesome & on their way to achieve more). As things were looking so good, sudd...

Rappers.

2016 marks my 3rd year in the kpop world. I'm currently stanning 7 kpop groups in total. 1. EXO 2. DAY6 3. GOT7 4. BTS 5. CNBLUE 6. Super Junior 7. BIGBANG I've noticed one thing. My 1st bias was always the rapper of the group. Mostly. My first EXO bias was Kris, before he decided to leave the group. Then my heart shifted towards Sehun, who is also the rapper (and dancer & visual) of EXO.  Then came DAY6. My 1st (and i think my ultimate) bias was/is Wonpil. But gradually, i started to have a crush on Brian. The reason is simple tho; he plays bass, he sings  and he raps. Which is soooo cool. He also speaks english. Maaaajor turn on. ;) Next is GOT7. My 1st unofficial bias was Jackson, the rapper of the group. The reason why he was my unofficial bias was i started liking Jackson before i started stanning GOT7. Then i got to know more about them and i fell for JB, the leader. He's super charming. *heart eyes* Then came BTS. It took me awhi...

Min Suga and Na.

Reasons why Min Suga & I belong to each other: 1. He likes to eat quietly & with his mouth close. Me too. 2. He doesn't like to speak with his mouth full. Me too. 3. He hates it when people bother him when he's sleeping. Me too. 4. He likes being lazy. Me too. 5. He likes quiet places. Me too. And... I dreamed about him for 3 days in a row & 4 times in total (as of now).  K bye now.

Broken Promises.

Image
In May 2015, I believe I have written something that reads: "She has sworn not to like any more groups. And she will keep that promise, I believe she will. Let's just hope she will..." Today, 11 January 2016, 8 months after the statement was written, I am unhappy to announce that I, Ieka Durrani have broke the promise made.  I have taken an interest to not one, but THREE more KPOP groups. An d they are... 1. DAY6 Members: Sungjin (leader, acoustic) Jae (guitarist) Young K (bassist, vocal, rapper) Junhyeok (keyboardist, vocal) Wonpil (synth, vocal) Dowoon (drummer) I fell in love with them on the day of their debut, 7 September 2015. It all started with their debut MV, "Congratulations". I was merely curious about them, and I knew the curiosity would kill me, and i was right. But I had reasons as to why I fell for them. They are not like any other kpop groups. Firstly, they're a band. They play their own instruments. Second,...

Forgotten.

For the first time in 10 years, I forgot his birthday... Wished him a HB every year without fail, When he didn't even remember my birthday. Got me asking to myself, "Do i really need to remember his birthday when he clearly don't give a shit about mine?" Today, i will stop giving a fuck. Sayonara.
