I'm really missing Jonghyun today. A lot. My heart aches for his pain. I remember during my grieving that I'd make change in my life and push forward to my dreams. I've made so much progress towards my goals, but...sometimes things just get so overwhelming.

I got a moon tattoo in memory of him and I look to it for strength sometimes. Tonight is just a little harder than most.

Sending you long distance hugs.

[cosmicdaze.livejournal.com]

sending you a big hug right now <3

i've been missing him a lot recently too. i wish we didn't have to live without him.

Want to wish every one a wonderful Friyay and weekend! My weekend will be spent doing admin work lol but I'm still happy.

I've never been hypnotized, but I'm absolutely terrified of the idea of someone "controlling me" so I could probably never :/

[aures.livejournal.com]

have a lovely weekend <3
don't overwork yourself too much this weekend and take some time off <3

[babyjenkski.livejournal.com]

Happy Friday everyone! I hope everyone is doing well =)

Just sharing...last weekend, I was rushed to the hospital because I had a bad attack of hyperventilation to the point that I couldn't breathe anymore and my whole body has gone numb I can't move at all. I was treated in the ER and given valium so I would calm down. What I hated about it, had to pay the ER fee of almost $150 when I have a healthcard. Apparently, its a preexisting condition that's not covered by my healthcard.

It's the third time that I was brought to the ER due to hyperventilation. I usually am able to manage it and no need for anything. The last attack I had was 10 years ago. As per the doctor, I need to see a psychiatrist for me to know how to manage my emotions coz episodes of hyperventilation is normally caused by shock, extreme anger, or pain. Funny thing is, I just woke up and taken a bath and was about to leave the house to go to a party when I had my attack. So whats the real trigger?

Anyways...Please love PENTAGON! Comeback next week and I really really hope they get a win this time. People needs to discover how talented these kids are (specially Kino and Jinho).

[aures.livejournal.com]

hi honey, i'm so sorry to hear about last weekend, that's just absolutely awful and i wish you did not have to go through that - hyperventilation is awful :( i hope you will really take this time to look for a good doctor or a therapist so you can find out what the trigger is, once you know this maybe you can work on it for a bit, it will take time but that's okay, just do it at your own pace
*biggest hug* <333 just know i'm here if you need a chat or a hug or an ear or whatever okay? <3 my dm is always open for you

Concert plans?

[neongoldtooth.livejournal.com]

Got to see Got7 Wednesday. So much fun! Even though I was in the back it’s a pretty small place and I was in the same room as JB so nothing else matters ☺️ I was most definitely one of the oldest people there that wasn’t a parent. Lmao
But I was thinking how much fun it must be to be like, 16 and seeing your favorite kpop group. That wasn’t really a thing ten years ago. And it was so much harder to be non Korean and find other ppl interested in kpop.

Anyone have concert plans this summer (can’t believe it’s already July) kpop or something else?

I wanna go to kcon again but the convention part is kind of cringy and I just wanna see Loona and Chungha lol.
Wishing I would have gotten tickets for Monsta X. Thinking of maybe seeing Tiffany in SF but all my friends in kpop are into the newer groups and not here for non kpop music.

Re: Concert plans?

[cosmicdaze.livejournal.com]

i saw shinee for the first time eight years ago when i was sixteen and let me tell you, it's one of the best feelings ever! 😆 i'm glad you got to see got7! honestly, at every single kpop concert i've gone to i've seen people of all ages having the time of their lives. at the nct concert in may there was a grandma sitting in front of me jamming out the entire time and i absolutely loved it lmao.

i want to go to kcon again but i'd literally JUST be going for chungha and svt (like i did last year) and i just got hired at a new job so i don't have the money or the ability to ask for the time off just yet. i want to see gotta go and snapping live so bad. 😞 but kcon keeps getting more and more annoying each year so i'm kinda glad i'm skipping it tbh. now i'm just waiting for exo to announce NA tour dates and whether or not suho (my ult) will be participating.

[cosmicdaze.livejournal.com]

exols are such a plague on twitter. my need to maintain my sanity and still be able to enjoy kpop is quickly overriding my need to know everything as soon as it happens. (after jonghyun passed away i've had really severe anxiety about going to sleep/being the last to know things.) i deactivated last night and was intending to be off twitter for longer but i came back today for something dumb and i'm glad i deactivated when i did because i missed the shitshow that was exo-sc's album contents reveal lmao. exols are exhausting. they complain about everything, fight about everything, bully other people for the most absurd reasons (mostly solo stans and more recently ksoo solo stans lmao), and can't go a day without fighting over something. at this point i just follow my fandom friends that i've known forever that don't generally engage in the bullshit but i follow a couple big accounts that rt garbage onto my timeline and i'm super over it, i need to purge my follow list at this point. i think once suho enlists i'm rly gonna leave stan twt for good and just keep up w my faves from afar. i've been doing this kpop shit for too damn long lmfao

[existingisfunny.livejournal.com]

any stans of sm groups seem rly weird to me lately. comments about nct "using" the money rv pulled in or whatever. nctzens also complain abt fcking everything

[jyusou.livejournal.com]

I got an email today from corporate saying that if I didn’t fill my time accurately on a weekly basis more than 5 instances, my performance and bonus will start being deducted. A superior violently lashing out at me for something that wasn’t my fault was already the first strike, my other supervisor being an absolute pain to work with the second strike that slowly built up over time, and now this. And y’know what, if you’re gonna deduct points from me for not performing this fundamentally menial task, then I am fucking off out of here. Been wanting to leave for the past five months and contemplating further education for over a year anyway.

[gathyou.livejournal.com]

That policy really sucks, how do they expect the employees to get involved and do more when they're looked down like that? I hope you're able to find a better option soon, this dosn't sound like a good environement. Hugs <3

[mntsuklaa.livejournal.com]

Never been hypnotized. I'm not sure I can be, because as far as I know you need an open mind or something. I don't take orders well and I don't consider myself to be easily suggestible either.

I've worked at a temp agency for a year now. I really like it, not being stuck in a single place is refreshing and being able to pick my own shifts is amazing because I can make plans outside of work without having to ask permission first.
The only downside is that every once in a while it gets really quiet and there are no shifts anywhere. I've been living from paycheck to paycheck the past year (my old job allowed me to save up some money each month and I still try to hold on to those savings for a rainy day) and while it's doable I'd still love to buy whatever I want whenever I want.

I hope everyone has a happy and safe weekend!

[yejun.livejournal.com]

Sent an email to my boss yesterday saying I want to quit. My health has plummeted since taking this job so... Not the fault of my boss or co-workers, just that the job doesn't match well with my personality. I'm too anxious about the answer I'll get so I can't check my mail now though. Yup.
On a slightly better note I got a mail back from a possible new job, which I really want. The pay is absolute shit but I'd get to move to where my BF is so we could close the gap after 4+ years of long distance dating. Not even close to getting the job yet but at least I got an answer after almost a month of waiting.

Can't wait for Hotel Del Luna to start. IU's been looking drop-dead gorgeous in the teasers and I'm looking forward to watching Jin Goo again after the greatness that was The Crowned Clown.

[daynr.livejournal.com]

good luck with all the job stuff, I hope the new one comes through.

[camouflagecat.livejournal.com]

Ok so my last FFA comment was a little all over the place re: the discussion about antidepressants, but I've talked it thru with my mom (who seems to be the only one who fucking knows how to go about this) and I'll just aim to go to the psychiatrist evaluations by the end of summer. I still think it was a but ?? for the doctor to 1) immediately describe me antidepressants when meds are usually treated as the last options and he's not even specialized in this field 2) even suggest that I ask my boss to cover the psychiatrist sessions when everyone with a brain knows that no one wants their work to know about their private medical stuff or should they even have the right to. I also got confused and frankly irritated by how I was kept directed back and forth between the doctor and the psychologist, and then when I took contact with our nurse by email she starts off by asking if I should have a session with my doctor bc in his files it says he has a referral to the public side?? When he specifically gave me the meds bc he COULDN'T send me to the pubic side before I'd tried medication first. The fact that internal communication doesn't seem to work very well in this place but everyone was being so confusing if I hadn't have my mom to explain it to me (really, it shouldn't be her but these professionals) I would be completely lost on how go about this thing. At least the nurse had the decency to be apologetic when I snapped at her for feeling I'm being bounced around from person to person. Also I feel like I really don't like our work-appointed doctor (idk what the right terminology is) bc he doesn't seem to know how to be empathetic to my struggle or know how to approach patients, the more I need to see him for this shit the more uncomfortable I feel having to deal with him.

[adenar.livejournal.com]

I watched produce 101 china and honestly...it's the superior version for me

Meiqi has to be the most deserving number 1 in the show, a true all rounder. I genuinely enjoyed the twists (the pending trainees, how songs were allocated, how a rank worked to begin with). I enjoyed how the live performances went and the idea of the popularity queens, because while sometimes it was fully predictable, it also recognised when a less popular trainee by votes had really shined in the performances. The tutors seemed have a genuine relationship both amongst themselves and the trainees and were shown actually mentoring the trainees. My only complaint was Chaoyue making it, her skills were abysmal (watching her in rocket girls' first performance was hilariously awful) and honestly if I'd been her manager and i'd seen how emotionally vulnerable she was on the show I would have pulled her out.

Also I could watch the tan te performance for days.

hi beautiful friends ♥
how are you? did you have a good week?

well, i want to share some good news. here in the netherlands they have preventive/preventative (???) colon cancer check-ups (idk after the age of 55 or so), but my dad's came back negative (as in: not good) so he had to go for a colonoscopy this morning and i had major anxiety but THANK GOD: it was all good! they found nothing ;~; i'm super super grateful. my dad means the world to me (my family in general), so i'm so extremely grateful that we were able to receive such good news, i'm really thankful

this weekend me and my mom are going on a mini weekend trip, my village has this massive village celebration and it's always a lot of noise and events it's always crazy out of control, and because i can not handle this (because of my illness), we are going away for the weekend, which is really lovely (especially after the good news we got this morning). i'm extremely tired from all the sh/t we got the past few weeks, so it'll be nice to be somewhere calm and quiet so i can hopefully recharge just a little bit and just spend some time with my mom alone - looking forward to seeing some more trees and plants lol

otherwise, i hope you will all have a lovely weekend ♥

[mallmouse.livejournal.com]

Negative means not good? Good to hear your dad's ok :)
I had such a great time in the NL when I went to see Muse btw. The weather was PERFECT!

[broadway-bound3.livejournal.com]

Today is the last day of my vacation in Charleston. The downtown is so nice. I love looking at all of the architecture and being so close to the water. I had an interview for a paid position and a volunteer position at one of the museums, and I think it went well. So I guess the next step is to put in my two weeks notice and start packing to move down here officially.

Even though I moved to Korea, which is on the other side of the world, I feel like this is an even bigger change for me. I have this dread of feeling home-sick. I know it's going to happen and I feel a little silly about it. Like, I moved to Korea! Going 6 1/2 hours from home should be a piece of cake! Ugh. I don't know.

[aures.livejournal.com]

hey don't feel silly about it, don't criticize your own feelings, they are there because you feel that way and that should not be met with negativity, but rather with warmth and kindness - maybe if you welcome those feelings and tell yourself "this is how i feel and that's okay" that you feel a little bit warmer, give yourself some love and be kind to yourself, don't make yourself feel bad about feelings you can not help from coming ♥ *big hug*

[mallmouse.livejournal.com]

I've been a chronic insomniac ever since I can remember, so good luck to anyone trying to hypnotize me.

Anyone watching One Spring Night? You satisfied with how it ended?

Got7

[daynr.livejournal.com]

So I went to see Got7 in Oakland Wednesday and I was not all that impressed. I had heard they gave great concert but to me they seemed a bit mellow and their ments seemed perfunctory. It was like I was watching people go through the motions, not people who were excited or even loved what they do. They did their dances and chatted a little, but barely cracked a smile the first half.

Bambam was the charming spark of joy, as usual, that seemed to finally get some energy going. Jackson barely spoke, which I think is a d-ck move when you're in an English speaking country and 4 of your members aren't that comfortable with it. He is fluent & has the personality, but I assume he doesn't want to "force it" when he's not in the mood. Except, boy, you have a crowd of 15,000 people who showed up to be entertained. I think I'm done with him until he takes himself less seriously.

The crowd was amazing, it was fun to see how happy and positive they were. They interacted with all the songs, but the old hits, (Just Right!), got a much larger reaction. And Teenager. They boys perform for like 2 hours, and then spend an hour doing "encores" where they just flirt with the pit. Can't blame them, but ... I could have handled a longer dance break from Yugyeom & Jinyoung, let's cancel the *cringe* rapline song and just have those two dance more.

I was surprised at how bad Jinyoung sounded half the time, really pitchy and shouty. Maybe he should rap and Jackson should sing. Youngjae can definitely sing, and he looks great. I wish people would stop telling him to lose weight, his figure is totally bangable. Yugyeom has no bum, he needs to get on those squats.

I enjoyed seeing their skin tone and actual heights too. I think one of the members insisted that their dancers be shorter than them. *snicker*.

OP, I have been hypnotized. I rather love it, it can feel peaceful, but I don't think it would work for habits & stuff (e.g. quit smoking). And I wouldn't do it in public.

Re: Got7

[apori.livejournal.com]

Thank you for this write up of the concert! It's nice to read some thoughts that aren't "uwu they were so perfect I cry". Solo stans have told me for almost 6 years that various vocal line member are "the only one who has any business singing!11!" But I've yet to see live video evidence that anyone but Youngjae has any business even having people talk about them like that lol. Yugyeom being bum-less is also a great shame, the proportions are otherwise so great (even though I made my opinion about his fashion clear before)!

And even though I don't think we've discussed it, I think we're at the same point with Jackson. I've been swinging back and forth, but I think the hype was purchased and it's just not for me.

[imahurricane.livejournal.com]

work is killing me but i survive phew!

i need to vent. my group of friends didn't ask me to hang out with them. they know that i'm busy with work but asking me first would be nice. my other friend who couldn't go asked me why i didn't go with them and i said well nobody asked me! i didn't even know it in the first place until they left. i'm starting to overthink that they secretly don't like me :\

[a-suitcase.livejournal.com]

Ahh I hate when this kind of thing happens :(. Probably they were just trying to be considerate, but I know it really hurts. Is there someone in your friends group you can ask why it happened, just to reassure yourself?

[theweebdream.livejournal.com]

Hypnotized?? The real question is...would I know if I had been 😨

Omona, today is my birthday! *insert Birthday by Somi here* Ok but please don’t patronize me I actually like the song LOL

I’m a cool 25 now. It feels so weird to be able to officially say I’m in my mid 20s!! I definitely don’t feel it lol.

[apori.livejournal.com]

Happy birthday! I hope you have a great Somi day!

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

idt I've made a post in a FFA in a while. HAPPY FRIDAY OMONA!

Haven't been hypnotized but have gone to a psychic before back in like 2008 lol I have the tape but it's a tape and no way to play it now so I'll never know if anything she said actually came true.

life stuff you can skip lol
I've had to pack up my whole apartment only to unpack it in 2 weeks to then pack it back up in like 2 months -____- the annoyances of being a renter sometimes. they ran into electrical issues so things have been pushed back but at least that means I get some peace and quiet for the next couple days.

The plus side to having to do that is that I've purged like 60% of what I own and passed on all my "my first apartment" furniture (which was 3 apartments ago lol it's been a long time) and now feel like my home will reflect me instead of being a mishmash of things i've liked over the years with no real design plan.

K-ent related
Still not feeling Baekhyun's debut. His live stage was awkward :( He's done so much better in previous solo stages so I wonder what's going on. The ChanHun unit is getting 3 THREE!! title tracks for a mini album lol SM knows they'll sell super well so I can't blame them. I'm glad I started following a lot more smaller groups over the last few years because it's really interesting watching people at different levels of success try and navigate the same system.

[daynr.livejournal.com]

I really don't understand what's going on with him, because he is usually such a confident performer and is very charismatic. I don't mind his mini, but it almost sounds like he's on the same singing level as someone like JB which I never ever have thought before.

I almost want to watch this exo-l implosion discussed above, but since I cannot take Chanyeol (the clapping! and competitiveness!) or Sehun (just why?) seriously, I know any interference by me will not go well.

Please share furniture/decor schemes when you get there. Omona fridays can always use more apartment decorating/purging.

[gathyou.livejournal.com]

A friend of mine had an hypnose session a few weeks ago, actually. Despite being the rational type, he went there willing to believe/follow the instructions 100%, and it brought him a lot of relief. It seems like he was able to let out a lot of repressed feelings.
I'm not sure if I'm willing to open up as much - it already took me weeks to do with my psy lol. But his experience definitively made me curious.

As for me, still limited internet access at home but I was finally able to subscribe (I needed a bill to prove residency) and I'll have super fast broadband next weekend! I can't wait XD
I'm so glad it's the weekend lol. Work has been really stressful this week and I needed my break! I just have one pic nic planned, then time to unpack what's left to do (aka nearly everything lol).

Have a great weekend everyone <3

In hope solo living is still going well! If you can't get a kitty..... Get a mini bunny. 😘

Happy Friday!

A wasp decided to build a nest on my front door's frame yesterday. I went into panic mode and couldn't sleep knowing leaving my apartment would mean confronting it. One of my biggest fears are wasps because I got stung (repeatedly) when I was a little kid and sadly that is my earliest memory lol.

After only sleeping for four hours last night, I went full Terminator this morning and sprayed the nest with Lysol for a minute straight. I only did it because I thought it wasn't in the nest but... uh, the little guy was still in there when I took it down. Dead, of course. I felt bad because I hate killing bugs/spiders; I'm definitely team put them in a cup and relocate them. But idk wasps... They just bring out the like the scared animal in me.

Hope you all have a wasp-free weekend. <3

Have a nice weekend everyone!

It's been a while since I posted here, summer keeps me busy! Tomorrow is my birthday and I'm not as excited as I used to be about celebrating (especially now that I'm in my late twenties). Today I'm looking back at this year and although I did not achieve some of the things I wanted to and sometimes I feel a bit behind in life, I've got to travel and live my best fan life with my hard-earned money, which is something my teenage self would have never dreamt of lol

[daynr.livejournal.com]

What kind of fan choices were made?

[nekokonneko.livejournal.com]

I got spoiled for most of the Produce elimination results and boy some choices were made 😷 I saw a lot of them coming but still, the lack of taste...

[babyjenkski.livejournal.com]

Most of my faves are in the top 20 but I am soooooo disappointed that Hyunbin didn't make it. I have an issue with 4 starshjjip boys (I'm so sorry), Tony and Mingyu being in the top 20. I think its gonna be a battle between Wooseok and Yohan for the center spot. I'd like it to be Yohan.

[frequency.livejournal.com]

i don't think i've ever been hypnotized but i could be wrong, lol.

i've been catching up on (western) music and man, my faves have really been delivering this year. yuna's new album is amazing, even though i wish she hadn't collaborated w/ jay park's whiny ass, lmao. i gotta get in the rest of the stuff on my list before my amazon music trial expires.

saw my rheumatologist yesterday and she wasn't super concerned about my positive ANA. she said it can appear that way with inflammatory bowel diseases, so i guess that explains why it's come up positive in recent years. she also said since my condition can affect my joints, it's more likely that my UC is why i have joint problems sometimes. they have medications to control both the GI and joint symptoms, but since my GI symptoms are well controlled, she doesn't want to go down that route unless my joints get worse. for the time being, i have prednisone i can take when my joints start bothering me.

[aures.livejournal.com]

hi dear, what a story about your health, that sounds awful :( do you have a lot of pain or is it more like "used to it" pain? or is it more coming in waves? like high pain/lower (normal) pain?
sorry if it sounds a bit weird saying this, but since we both have chronic pain i think you know what i mean?
prednisone is awful though, do you have to take it often or did you not have to take it yet? do you have to go to get tested for an IBD or did you already get diagnosed with it/one?
i really wish you did not have to go through this, are you able to mentally handle it a bit? or is it still very hard? *biggest hugs*

Maybe I should ask this question next week when there aren't 145 comments already, but in case anyone is still reading...

I'm really frustrated by iTunes not having any of SHINee's (and Key's!) Japanese singles. I know the mp3's are out there, but I don't want to download them from just anywhere. Can anyone point me in the right direction??

Thanks in advance.
