Seventeen Year Old Blues.

I turn 18 tomorrow.

Why,

I'm not going to go on a tangent about my mid life crisis. I've had way to many. I can only hope my 18th year on the planet is one with good health and progress. I wanted to write a looong entry woth heaps of pictures, about the music I've been listening to, such as KARA's come back track Lupin, how D-motion is still on repeat, how I was excited over NEWS' new song 'Sakura Girl' Star Star Star etc. There are so many songs. Or all the magazine cuts and magazine pictures I've seen of people. Or who I'm following on twitter...

But...

I simply don't have the time. I don't have the time to write Winglin stories, to study well, to go off to uni open days, yet... I simply have time to PROCRASTINATE. This year I hope I get less oppertunities to procrastinate and more to simply be thrown into the midst of being extremely busy.

but... time to myself would be nice. How else am I going to watch dramas, check allkpop.com, keep up with Japanese Entertainment news, revise chinese etc. but just spare time. I don't want that to be my entire life. Kim Yuna the figure skater is such a positive influence. She is someone who is dedicated to something and works extremely hard. I hope I become like that too. Since the Winter Olympics in Vancouver ends tomorrow I thought it deserved a bit of a mention.

Anyway, Next time you hear from me I will be an 18 year old and well on my way to being an adult by name but definitely not by nature.

Until next time,

Devina, currently 17 years of age.

Weekly Report # 2: Sundays are for...REVIEWS

Devina HERE!

Okay, so it's been nearly two weeks since my last 'weekly' report. I don't even remember what I've up to- um on a positive note, I got 4 out of 5 university offers~ that is always pleasant.
Okay-most recent-


I went out yesterday to see Sherlock Holmes in the Cinema- I know 1) I'm a little bit late, and w/e. Also I was supposed to watch AVATAR but that some how didn't go to plan. School is a living nightmare as usual. Made only awesome by the frequent trips out to eat around the area. And I wonder why I've gained so much weight.
The film was better than I expected it to be....way better - I loved the english banter even though it was pretty Americanified.


I blog about KAT-TUN too much, but these days I'm really into their music. After the awesome release of Olympos (Jin's solo album) the PV for their new song Love Yourself~ Kimi ga Kirai Kimi Ga Suki (gosh is that even how you say it?- I get so confused) anyway - It was released like a few days ago and I was just getting into it because of Koki's rap- then it cuts. Darn shortened PVs.

However, they also performed The D-Motion on music station- a Japanese Music TV show. (Hyde and Becky were also on the show) That song is waay better in my opinion, even though they are enjoying auto tune a bit too much. It is feel good song. And Taguchi looked seriously handsome. I can't wait to actually see the PV and the full length of Love Yourself.

Now Music/Fashion/Thinspo in the form of SNSD - gee why do I like asiany stuff so much ? I will never know Lol. SNSD released their 2nd Full Length Album titled Oh!
I have to say I was pretty disappointed. I really expected alot from them. The best songs were Star Star Star, and em, quite a few were good actually but the title song was pretty dry. If I was seeing them for the first time I would just assume they were a bunch of pretty girls with no substance and no talent. I even I know that is not true. I'm finding myself listening to CHANGE by Kim Hyun Ah a lot instead.



The Photos are nice though, really like fashion magazines.
And I've started reading Teen Vogue again LOL, it reminded me of something they would do.





Finally, Hyori Lee modelling for Adidas, she was in London AGAIN. and I didn't know AGAIN. It's so frustrating sometimes, there is no chance for us over in England to get a glimpse of Kpop stars. She looks really amazing in the whole shoot. Looking good at 30. I hope I look as hot when I'm 30 Lol.

Thats my week in short. I should mention here that Izzy my partner in crime is busy with exams and Uni apps cuz shes not as organised as me ;) lol Jkjk anyway so she is unable to post at the minute. I will force her when its over.

Until next time,

Weekly Report!!

What Have I been up to this week? I don't know if this will be a regular feature but here is my week.

Life: Dry and uneventful, seasoned only by my acting classes. But my hair's grown ^^. Yet, I'm still going to get hair extensions.

School: Just finished my retakes, and I guess its best to just forget they ever happened. Shudders. The BBC were also filming in my study centre this week. For some reason. Apparently my school is really good.

Fashion: Go Ara in Nylon i'm loving those cuffs and the dress

Gossip Girl's Blair and Serena (Leighton and Blake) loving the long socks and the over the top school look which I have been rocking as of late. Serena's look here is really Ko-Gal-esque which I'm loving of course.


Music:
Rainie & Love...
Rainie Yang's 5th Album, somehow not as good as her previous one but still a nice listen.

CN Blue; Bluetory. I love the title track 'I'm a loner', such a unique sound. 'Love revolution' is amazing also. For fans of FT Island.

ZE:A's - Single- 'Mazeltov' so damn catchy and I like this group because they had to work extra hard because they weren't from one of the over hyped companies like SM or JYP.

Olympos; BANDAGE OST
I have been listening to this album on repeat, something I don't usually do. Surprisingly BANDAGE isn't even the best song on this album. My favourite songs are 'Yuuki' and 'Hatachi No Sensou', and I'm a HUGE fan of hidden tracks. The acoustic of Genki was soo touching. I hope this film is a success.




Thinspo: Usually I don't condone thinspo *cough* but I like Mary-Kate's style here. Loving the plaid shirt look in particular these days. I got this really nice one last year from Urban Outfitters.

And so concludes my brief weekly report. maybe there will be another one next week. maybe not.

And all things sweet...

Happy New Year!!

I thought I'd share the lovely looking pics of the delicious Fro-yo me and Izzy had last week =D

Green Tea flavoured with mochi, pistachios, oreos. And, Mangoes, blueberries and strawberries. Oishii desu^^

2010 is off to a strange start. Here's to a great new year !!

In The New Year I Will...

It's still 2009 here in England 10:50pm to be precise. ^^ I wanted to do a whole, last post of 2009 thing. ~

I have a resolution! I'm not going to say that I'll lose 20kgs or I'll become a billionaire or any other feat that is, lets face it - Super unlikely.
Instead, my new years resolution is to be myself, and have the confidence to do so at all times. Also, to work hard for whatever I want. Furthermore, I'll do my absolute best to keep it!

I quite enjoyed 2009. It was a year of revelations of all kinds. There were many unfortunate events of 2009, the passings of people, etc, but it was a year of sucess for many and anyway, every cloud has a silver lining! I learnt a lot about myself and the people around me and I hope I continue to grow as a person and learn new things in the new year.

Goodbye 2009!

Roll on MMX! As shinee said for 2009; 2010. Y.O.U- lets make it a Year. Of. Us. =D
Excuse the cream and cheesiness ~

Happy New Year!!!

Christmas belly (N)

Hi guys!

My first post on here, have been veryyyyyyy busy =.= anyways i hope you's had a fab Christmas! (Y)

/This will be kinda weird for my first post but i just had to talk about how much people can generally eat during the xmas holidays, without realising, especially ME! oh myy, i think i ate about 4 weeks of food in one *cries* and i was actually thinking of losing a few pounds, not that it was a good idea anyway considering needing to have the good old xmas dinner!

I remember my friend and I's new year's resolution for this year was to get fit, but that was long gone i think after the first week? i'm really gonna try and stick to that for 2010! 8-) haha. this christmas belly needs to GO! prom isn't that far away! =D

Anyways that's all for now and I hope you's all have a fantastic new year's! I'll upload some pics soon since this will look a bit boring. Will get back asap :)

P.S. D, Alex Pettyfer is mine!!! hehehe all <3

Update on life: Break The Records Concert DVD

Being totally otaku I had to watch the concert DVD online. Why wasn't I there again =/ I think I should try and go to their next concert (PLEASE BE IN THE SUMMER!) ~ Heeuuuu...
It just looked so fun even the members of KAT-TUN looked like they were having the time of their lives... (Why Am I In School and NOT performing too?!)

Today was nice. I'm really digging this Christmas season of course. School is more bearable
And it's been SNOWING! HURRAH!
I made the mistake of wearing this giant purple jumper that kept malting on EVERYONE!
(Sorry people who ended up looking as furry as me) ~ (And darn you Mulberry designers)
I also managed to buy Wild Child on DVD for £3 this morning just on a whim. Good Stuff!

Anyway, my last day of school before the holidays is tomorrow... Don't want to be late - it's already 2am. I wonder if the snow will die down enough for me to step out of the house... -

Good Night
