My Ideal Apartment!


I think I just found the perfect apartment for meee! I've been looking for a place to live and this fits me so well it's scary. I was just browsing around websites and came across a website called Vacancy.com and they have really decent apartments for rent. They are an independent agency that help you with any of your apartment finder needs. This website is really efficient, since it shows every possible detail one person needs to know how the surrounding area is and what does the apartment looks like. As i was browsing, i found many apartments that were suitable but there is one that stuck with me more. This apartment is on 1009 Spruce Street, Philadelphia, PA.
Here is the link for the details of the apartment 
I just love this so much that I had to write about it. So now I will give 7 reasons why I believe this is perfect for me :) 

1)  Downtown:  not only is this apartment building near my university but it is in downtown! I've always wanted to live in downtown especially if I am already going to school. It has access to all the restaurants, shopping districts and parks that i love to visit. I can go to Rittenhouse Square as much as I want!
2) Safe and clean: I have checked this place out and it is a quite neighborhood. I'm not sure how it is in the night time but i think it will be calm, which is exactly what i prefer.
3) there is a free gym and wifi plus laundry machines, what more could i ask for? I love exercising and to be able to get a free gym access is not easy so not only will i be able to use the school gym while I'm at school but the days i don't have school i will use my apartment one. It's a win-win situation. Having a wifi connection is self explainatory...who doesn't love free internet?
4) Price: i love the reasonable price of a 1 bedroom and 1 bath apartment. I'm not much for a studio apartment since I horde so much stuff I need more space and when I looked at these pictures, it pleased me even more. Then i noticed the price, which is not bad for a university student. I barely have enough money to feed myself so I think having a low rent really helps with the choosing. 
5) Pets allowed: I have always wanted a pet in a place of my own and to think i can have a cat or a bird is awesome! I really like to live with a cat even if i don't live with a roommate. So i'm really glad that they allow pets in this building. 
6) Art Museums! I am an art student, currently studying at Temple University, and to think I can be living near all the art centers right dab in the middle of the city is a dream come true. I will be visiting the Philadelphia art museum for all my classes and going to exhibitions and getting all the materials and inspiration of drawing just by the bustling of people walking by. 
7) The right place, this is just the right place for me, I wouldn't have to worry about being late to class or trying to take long train rides.

I put some pictures of the apartment, isn't it pretty? :)

생일 축하 해 이 동해!!!

You know this was coming...my personal bias. Today is his birthday and what kind of fan would I be without making a tribute to him.







I actually made a fan-made music video in his honour. It's a splash of his wonderful self. Right now I am only giving a teaser of the video, cause I ran out of images and needed to go on a search spree. But fear not, the actual video will be up soon. 



Our Donghae is a very special man. He has charmed many girls all over the world with his adorable, sensitive, forgiving heart. He is a very emotional and truthful man. It might just be too good to be true but its true! He is one of a kind our shining star. Donghae, thank you so much for being alive. You have given much hope to many people, now our only hope is that you rest well and be happy with every endeavors in your life. Please don't work too hard and give yourself a treat on this special day. Donghae-ssi saranghamnida! :)

자유를 알고 싶어

I'm in love with this song! ~I'm not a Pierrot!~ I've listened to their album before but now every song I listen to I get addicted to it. I love this upbeat music mixed with dance. I want to know the meaning freedom!


Hangul:
Oh~ Oh~~~~~~~~
난 너의 Pierrot 정말로 웃겨
너에게 다 받쳐 찌들어
my mind getting it all from you, it dirty my mind
낸 눈 앞에 our bro 돈 앞엔 뭣도 없는
완전한 넌 pro 제대로 p.s.m.
아직 어린 내께 또 무슨 짖을 하게 또
이 더러운 손 좀 치워
상대도 하지마
어제의 우리가 아냐
눈 감아도 보여
난 이제 master
끝없이 파고 들어오는 건 no. no
그 정도 화보 따위에 가두려하지마
세상을 잘 봐. 너무나 멋져
no. just do not touch me
I’m not a pierrot
더 넓은 하늘을 등지고 살고 싶어
자류를 알고 싶어 더 높이 fly fly
나만의 새각이 있어
나만의 인생이 있어
감옥 같은 그 때 추억하기 싫어
영원히 Bye bye bye
너만의 그 생각 집어쳐
너의 그 핑계 집어쳐
죽도록 더 고통스러운 날들로 가득할 테니까
no future no freedom It’s just like a chase for us but it doesn’t matter
now we’re just gonna walk out way for the rest of my life

Romanji:

OOH OOH OOH
OOH OOH OOH
OOH OOH OOH
OOH

English: 
me, as your pierrot, it's really a joke
getting it all from you, it dirties my mind
in front of me, our bro, in front of money, i'm nothing
you're a perfect pro, truly a p.s.m.

to the me who is still young

what kind of doings will you do
take away your dirty hands
don't even try to confront

no just do not touch me

i'm not a pierrot
i want to live under a wider sky
i want to know the meaning of freedom
fly fly much higher

there's only thoughts about myself

there's only my own life
i hate having to think about the days living in a prisoner cell
forever bye bye bye

throw away those thoughts only of you

throw away those excuses of yours
because with those days of misery and pain
it will only be filled

even if i close my eyes, i'm now the master

delving like there's no end no no
don't try to measure it up with fortune or misfortune for this extend
look properly at the world, it's so beautiful

no just do not touch me

i'm not a pierrot
i want to live under a wider sky
i want to know the meaning of freedom
fly fly much higher

no future no freedom

just like a chase for us
but it doesn't matter now
we're just gonna walk our way
for the rest of my life

World of Perfection

So as I was looking at the photo shoot pictures of Super Junior M's album Perfection [from K-pop blog]...a crazy thought crossed my mind. I just made up a cast about an imaginary world where eight members lived. So here goes! 

Donghae: Arrogant aristocrat

  Eunhyuk: Aristocrat's right hand man

 Henry: Priest 

Siwon: Prince (enemy of aristocrat)

Zhou Mi: Prince's adviser

Ryeowook: Constable

 Kyuhyun: Mad scientist

Sungmin: Nobleman (allies with Prince)


And now let your imagination flow! hehehe :D



P.S. HAPPY BIRTHDAY HENRY!
