End World Hunger

I love the concept of this website, FreeRice, which is contributing to help end world hunger.

All we have to do is play a word game and for every word we get right, the website will donate 20 grains of rice to the United Nations. While that's not much, if we can spread the word and play the game as many times as possible, you'll soon be able to donate a bowl of rice or more!

I think it's ingenious, so take a stab at it, I promise it's really addictive. Plus, we finally can put to some good use all those SAT words we memorized back in high school.

SM TOWN LA in ANAHEIM is COMPLETE!

listening to: "Superman" by Super Junior




I finally got to see LEE DONGHAE right before my eyes and UNF is he gorgeous IRL as he is on screen. That jawline of his is so gorgeous. And his brows are just too beautiful. I couldn’t help but keep noticing these two features the most. But his smile, so sweet and naughty, I couldn’t help but swoon. Apparently, during the live screamcam, they caught a Donghae fanboy. Apparently, Donghae brings all the boys and the girls to the yard.

Since I mainly went to see Donghae and Super Junior, they will be the only ones I’ll be focusing on. My brother was fanboying over Girls Generation (of course). I have to say though, I was really impressed with TVXQ (DBSK)’s performance. Even though it was sad to see their members shrink from five to two, Yunho danced his heart out while Changmin sang his lungs out. Aside from Suju, I think I was the most impressed with them.

As for the rest, Shinee also put on a great show, but they had a couple songs that were really mediocre. Basically, only Lucifer, Ring Ding Dong, and Sherlock were the most memorable. I gotta, say Minho is ridiculously gorgeous in person. During Onew's duet with f(x)'s Luna, I think he forgot the lyrics, it was pretty cute. f(x) also had one or two songs that were good out of the couple they performed. SNSD put on a great show and sang most of their hits except Mr. Taxi and Hoot. I was happy they performed Kissing You since that MV featured Donghae. For BoA’s songs, I was sorely unimpressed, not by her performance, but by the song quality. I didn’t really like any of her songs and thought it was unfortunate because she gave a great performance and she's the queen of k-pop. I should mention that aside from Suju, I don’t listen to k-pop and know virtually nothing about k-pop.

On to Super Junior. Sadly, Siwon did not join the boys, so we were treated by eight members: Donghae, Kyuhyun, Ryeowook, Yesung, Leeteuk, Sungmin, Eunhyuk, and Shindong. Siwon’s my second bias in Suju, so I admit, I was a little disappointed. I wanted to see some chocolate abs. But the eight members still performed great, you could tell with SS4 going on, their performance was a lot more seasoned. Their charisma on stage was just a sight to behold.

Super Junior started off with Superman and Don’t Don. It was pretty great that they were able to get the watershow in. They performed second, after Shinee. And then afterward, alternated with the other groups. The tracklist for Suju was pretty high, if you also count the subgroups and collaborations, I want to say they performed the most songs:

1. Superman
2. Don’t Don
3. Bonamana (Rock remix)
4. Opps featuring f(x)
5. Oppa Oppa (Donghae & Eunhyuk)
6. Dancing Out
7. Sorry Sorry
8. A-Cha
9. Mr. Simple

Oppa Oppa completely brought the house down. I was really happy and surprised for Donghae. This means that their subunit will have longevity and hopefully SM Entertaiment will be more motivated to push and promote their subunit, because Oppa Oppa deserves a lot more love and Hae deserves a lot more love. It was also pretty awesome that the main screen behind them showed the lyrics to the song in English. I was surprised to see them spell Donghae's name as Dong Hae and Eunhyuk's name as Eun Hyuk, it's just strange to see their names spelled like that. Unfortunately, during Oppa Oppa, Donghae's mic didn't seem to be working for the part that goes, "I say Donghae, you say Oppa" but unf was he so handsome. Eunhyuk's mic wasn't working for that part either, but his mic later cut in so he was able to get a few Oppa chants from the fans. They fanserviced, saying "I say EunHae, you say Oppa," and hugged, but Hae didn't really seem into the fanservice. I screamed like a crazy person when they performed this, because I was guessing they wouldn’t but half-expecting them not to since it was a subunit song. Thankfully they did because I love this song and its cracktasticness so much.

During A-Cha, they added a dance break I hadn't seen previously. It was pretty awesome. The footage in their Oops video seemed new to me too. I don't remember their SS4 Seoul Oops video showing old images of Hae from the Don't Don era. And they wore their lightup jackets from SS4 during Mr. Simple, which they performed as their last song. I admit, I was slightly hoping for Opera, but sadly nope. But I'm not complaining, performing six Suju hits a subunit song two extra songs was pretty much like a mini SS4 concert.

Of the Suju members, the ones that got the most cheers were definitely Hae, Leeteuk, Eunhyuk and Kyuhyun. Kyu’s duet with Changmin was beautiful and they serenaded to a lucky fan, but I wish they hadn’t sung Bruno Mars’ “Just the Way U Are,” because they could do better. Kyu's voice is like smooth velvety chocolate, just delicious. I still can’t believe there was a Donghae fanboy. I did see a couple Donghae fangirls holding I ♥ Donghae signs.

Donghae was completely adorable during Dancing Out. He was one of the Suju members to run to our side and wave at us. I think he also fanserviced the EunHae fans by swiveling hips with Eunhyuk. It was pretty cute. He was much more into the fanservice later on in the show than he was at the beginning. And during the introductions, he introduced himself in his adorable Engrish. My brother said that Sungmin was the only Suju member that didn't introduce himself in English lol My brother said that Sungmin was the only Suju member that didn’t introduce himself in English lol During Suju’s introductions after they go, "We are Super Junior-Oyeo!" They held their mics out for the ELF fanchant of "We are ELFs" but unfortunately, it kinda got lost in translation, I think some fans were trying to chant in English, others in Korean, and some just didn’t know what the boys were doing. The boys looked a little confused, amused and let down. But what can you do, it wasn’t a Super Show. The fact that there were ELF chants at all, was pretty great. By this time, I was already starting to lose my voice, but still chanted and sang along with them.

During Changmin’s high note at the end of the show, Hae had a lot of fun trolling on Changmin, pushing him to the spotlight and stroking his throat. Precious five year old bb will be precious. I saw him hug Taemin at the end near our end of the stage. At the end of the show, Hae made sure to run to each side of the stage to wave at us. At first he did it alone and then afterwards, he ran to Eunhyuk and the both started running to each side to wave and bow at fans. It was really funny because poor Sungmin and Ryeowook were waiting at the middle of the stage for them to complete the Lee Brothers thumb kissing tradition. Finally Hae and Hyukkie ran back to the middle of the stage where Leeteuk joined the four of them in the thumb kissing tradition. It was awesome, because for a moment there, I felt like I was at a Super Show.

After the thumb kiss Hae started stripping, taking off his SMTown t-shirt (unfortunately he still had a white tee underneath) and threw it to a lucky fan on the right side (his left). Hyukkie and some of the other boys saw him do this and started doing the same. Then Leeteuk stayed behind making heart signs, waving goodbye, saying thank you and bowing to the fans, while the other four left the stage. Before the thumb kissing tradition, Yesung had also been with waving at fans in the middle of the stage. It was pretty awesome of all six of them because the ending was just Suju heaven. Only Suju members left on stage waving and thanking the fans. It made me wish that they could just host a solo Super Show 4 concert in the US.

Wish I had brought a Donghae banner or lightstick to show my support, but even from where I was sitting, I doubt he would have saw it, even though I sat in Section 203, Row S. The SMTown organizers did hand out free pink glowsticks, but they weren't selling any merchandise. Unfortunately, the security was really tight and they (SMTown and MBC) wouldn’t let us record or take pictures. I had really great seats but they watched us a like a hawk and actually confiscated cameras from some fans that were recording. All I have are my memories and this fan account, along with some awesome fancams from lucky fans. I had a blast and can't wait for the next SMTown or hopefully and finally, the Super Show in LA. I am forever an ELFish.

Saving the Date for May 20th ♥

April 6th, 2012 (02:48 am)
feeling: Going to funky town!
listening to: "Oppa Oppa" by Super Junior's Donghae and Eunhyuk

Fuck yeah, I got my tickets to SMTown "LA" Anaheim!!



OMG, is it May 20th, yet?



Donghae, I'm coming for you, bb!!!! ♥



Can't wait to see le bb fishie :D



I purchased my ticket at work, I feel like such a ninja



For good seats, it cost a fortune ($227), but



TBH, $200+ is a lot, but since I'm going with peeps and we all agreed it'd be more enjoyable than the bleacher seats, then why not? As long as I get to see fishie Hae



Of course, since it's SMTown that would mean I'll be bored for a 2/3 of the show, since I'm only interested in Suju. So, like the NKOTBSB concert where I was a silly fangirl for half the show and merely just an observer the other half, I'm gonna be like this for Suju:



And this for the other SM Entertainment artists:



I'd only splurge $300+ for the Super Show 4, so it'd better come to SoCal



I'm gonna need to see this at SMTown, Hae



Definitely some of this



A whole lot of dat



And enough of this to make ovaries explode if they haven't already



Please and thanks ^^



He's just too damn irresistible
