Korean Pop



Most people wonder how I got into Korean Pop and I thought I would finally explain.

So my family and I went on a trip to China and the only station that had english apart from CNN was a Korean Station called Arirang. It's a great station mostly in English and it has programmes about Korean Culture, Food, News..everything really. The best thing about it was the Music Programmes. My sister and I fell in love with a song by Wheesung and when we saw the video we thought it was genius. Take a look...this is how it all started. (above)

Then we caught sight of Shinhwa and that was it! Gorgeous men with great voices...i was hooked. (below)

Nippon






So, I went to see the Under 19 Rugby World cup the other day. I went along to support Japan in their match against Samoa. They were beaten pretty badly in previous games by Argentina and New Zealand but they came out fighting in this match and started off really well. The wind was against them but they fought hard and scored first but missed out on a conversion. They started to fade a bit and conceeded a few points. Overall I was impressed by their courage and fight and even thought they lost the score wasn't too bad (28-12). They were so miserable and dejected after the game but they came to thank the japanese supporters. Some of them were really cute. I loved it...lol.

They are playing Ireland on Tuesday so I will try to go and show them some support. It's over at Shaw's Bridge at 7.30 so come along if you can!

Freaky Upside-down Photo




I took this photo the other day when I was out walking with Stephen. I was trying to get the reflection of the branches in the water and it turned out pretty well. Then Stephen looked at it upside-down (by accident) and realised that it looked really cool. It looks like a freaky night time/day time picture. I think it looks great (I'm so modest..lol.) If you want to see the original photo...tilt your head to the side..lol.

Summer is coming!




The weather is getting nicer and it makes things seem so much better. People seem happier...maybe..lol.

We had a party a while ago and we made the pavlova in the picture. It was dead easy to make though. Thank god for shop bought meringues.

Anyway, I have been taking photos lately and am planning to put them on flikr soon so I will post link here for everyone to have a look.

Talk soon, Clare.
