SBC Week 10 || My Blog Audit

Hi guys! Today I will be doing an audit on my blog.  So let’s start with the questions!

How many weeks of the challenge did you participate in?

I participated in 6 challenges.

How many posts did you write in the ten week period?

I wrote 7 posts in the ten week period.

How many comments did you receive from classmates, teachers, or other visitors?

I received 3 comments.

Which post did you enjoy writing the most and why?

My favorite post to write was either My Theme for 2018 or SBC Week 5 because I got to write about K-Pop.

What are your plans for your blog now? Will you keep posting?

I think I will keep posting weekly themed posts because I have a lot I want to write.(About K-Pop)

 

I interviewed my friend Raya for this challenge

What were your first impressions of this blog?

Raya: It’s colorful-ish.  I love your pet panda (because Kun). Also, I love your posts especially your NCT one. (also WHY IS DRIPPIN’ SO HIGH ON YOUR LIST OF MUSIC?)(My answer: Drippin’ is a bop)

What captured your attention?

KunKun, Taeyong’s silver hair, and that one giant picture of Seventeen because Woozi is so short (uwu)

What distracted you on the blog?

Nothing really. Your blog thing is very basic and easy to read

What suggestions can you give me to improve my blog

Maybe a more colorful background and a pet named Markie Pooh (-_-).  Other than that there isn’t much because you have a good blog.

Who is NCT127?

NCT127 is a South Korean boy group sub-unit with ten members from SM Entertainment. They debuted on July 7, 2016.  They started off with seven members then December 2016, they added two more, and lastly September 2018, they added their newest member for this unit.

What are their names? And what do they do?

Their names (and positions) are: Lee Taeyong(leader, main dancer, main rapper, center, and visual), Moon Taeil(main vocalist), Seo Johnny(lead rapper, lead dancer), Nakamoto Yuta(main dancer, rapper, vocalist), Kim Doyoung(main vocalist), Jung Jaehyun(lead vocalist, lead dancer), WinWin(lead dancer, vocalist), Kim Jungwoo(lead vocalist, lead dancer), Lee Mark(main rapper), and Lee Haechan(lead vocalist, lead dancer, sub-rapper).

What is the song like?

The song has an electronic hip-hop sort of sound to it, which they haven’t really done this year. The first song this year, ‘Touch’ was a more bright release, while the second song ‘Regular’ was their take on a latin trend. I love the attitude and charisma that flows throughout the song, and the chorus is pretty catchy. Overall, it’s a really cool song. If you want to listen to the song click here

Thank you for taking the time to read my blog. I hope you enjoyed, see you later byeee!

SBC Week 5: Music

Hi guys! So today I’m back with SBC Week 5 and I’m doing Task 2.

If you have read any of my Weekly Themed Posts you’d know I am a HUGE fan of K-Pop.  So I think today I’ll list some of my current favorites.  Hmmm…10 seems like a good number. Okay here are my current top 10 favorite K-Pop songs! (Warning: this list will most likely be different by tomorrow) (Another Warning: I might have forgotten to include some songs so yeah…}

10. Bad Boy by Red Velvet

9. Intro: Neo Got My Back by NCT
(yes I know it’s an intro, but it’s catchy)

8. TT by Twice

7. Bboom Bboom by Momoland

6. Don’t Wanna Cry by Seventeen

5.Hellavator by Stray Kids

4. Shine by Pentagon

3. Drippin by NCT Dream

2. Spring Day by BTS

1. Regular by NCT 127
This song is the literal definition of perfect.  There are two versions of the song English and Korean, the Korean version is the regular one and the English one is the irregular one.  In the English version, they are flaunting their successfulness which is why it is irregular, and in the Korean version, they don’t flaunt and that’s why it’s regular

Well if you are interested in checking the songs out I have left links to where you can check out the songs. Thank you for reading, byeeee!!!

My Final Post of the School Year

Hey, guys, this post will be the last one of the school year and I’m really excited for summer. Are you? Comment if you are. Now let’s get to the questions!

photo credit to: publicdomainpictures

1. What did you enjoy most this school year?

I enjoyed a lot of things this school year, but I think I enjoyed hanging out with my friends.  School is important but without the people in your class, the school day would be as boring as boring gets.  There were a bunch more enjoyable moments/things this school year that I can’t even list.

2. What would you have changed if you could redo this school year?

I would probably change how much effort I put in this year.  I procrastinated a lot and didn’t do that well this year. I made it on the honor roll all three trimesters but I know if I worked harder I might have made it further. Next school year I’ll try to work harder so I can work to the best of my abilities.

3. What are you looking forward to next school year?

I have a lot of things to look forward to in 8th grade, like the Japan Study Tour. I also look forward to the Challenger Mission too.  It’ll be a little scary being the oldest in school and all the pressure of being role models for the younger grades.

Thanks for reading my last blog of the school year, byee!!!

SBC Week 9: My TOP 10 Favorite K-Pop Groups!

Hey guys, today I’ll be listing my top 10 favorite K-Pop groups. Okay, let’s start with number 10. 

Number 10
VIXX

Number 10 is VIXX because Raya would kill me if I didn’t include them.  I only really like one of their songs ‘Chained Up’.  My favorite era is Hyde because they looked emo and wore black makeup, and Raya hates that era. If you wanna see more VIXX stuff check here.

Number 9
Day6

Day6 is 9th because they have amazing vocals, and they all play instruments.  They are one of the only bands I know and Jae is hilarious.  All of them are amazing, but the youngest can’t sing but he’s getting lessons.  If you want to hear more from Day6 check here.

Number 8
Monsta X

I put Monsta X at 8th because I love their music and their personalities, but I haven’t gotten completely attached to them(thank god) yet.  I love their vocals and dances.  If you wanna see more of Monsta X check here

Number 7
Red Velvet

I put Red Velvet at number 7 because they have a lot of talent.  Originally, Red Velvet’s debut album was leaked so they debuted early and they weren’t ready.  Everyone thought they were a flop but they worked hard to prove themselves, and now they’re one of the most popular girl groups in Korea.  If you wanna see Red Velvet facts check here.

Number 6
Stray Kids

Okay, so there’s one main reason that Stray Kids got pretty high on the list… Felix. He was my favorite when I watched the survival show they had.  He originally got eliminated from the top 7 winners, but the fans loved the two who got eliminated so they got back in.  The other reason is their talent and their songs. If you wanna see more Stray Kids facts look here.

Number 5
EXO

EXO was one of the first groups I got into after I started getting into K-Pop.  All of their songs are amazing. All of the members worked extremely hard to get where they are today, at the top of K-Pop boy groups.  If you wanna learn more about EXO check here.

Number 4
Wanna One

Originally I would have put EXO as fourth, but I got really attached to Wanna One after I watched Produce101.  Unfortunately, they will be disbanding in December of this year.  I wanna make the most of their time together, and I’m sure they feel the same. If you wanna see more about Wanna One check here.

Number 3

Seventeen

Seventeen gets third because I love them but there’s too many of them.  I mean 13 isn’t a lot a lot. heh heh… Okay maybe it is a lot but they are a self-producing idol group, which means they write, compose, produce, and choreograph all their own music. If you wanna learn more about Seventeen look here.

Number 2

Got7

I put Got7 as second because I love their teamwork and how close they are to each other.  Their songs are so amazing and they’re all crazy and I love them all <3 If you wanna learn more about Got7 check here.

Number 1

BTS

Okay, this is self-explanatory.  They were the first group I found, so they hold a special place with me.  BTS is an amazing group, from their vocals to their choreography.  I love their songs, their dances, and their personalities.  They deserve all the love and awards they have received, and they deserve even more. If you want to see more about BTS look here.

Okay, that’s all for this post, if you want to check out all the groups you can find them on KProfiles

Weekly Themed Post #9

Hey everyone! I’m back again with my Favorite Song of the Week!  So this weeks song is…

‘For Life’ by Exo (If you want the lyrics click here, if you want the m/v click here)

photo credit to: wikimedia commons

Exo’s song ‘For Life’ is a slow sad yet somehow warming song that is also sorta festive.  It was a part of their ‘Sing For You’ album which had a wintery theme.  The song was a chillingly emotional one that will warm you when you read the lyrics.  I love all of Exo’s songs but this one is very special to me, whenever I hear it playing I can’t help but sing along.

The song is about a guy who only loves that one girl and he will give everything to her because she’s his everything in life.  He doesn’t want to be with anyone but her even if they are reborn, and he wants to protect her and stay by her side for life.  The lyrics are really touching and the melody is completely amazing and fits the wintery theme so well.

If you haven’t read my previous posts about Exo, I’ll explain who Exo is and why I love them so much.  Exo is a formerly 12 membered group that debuted from S.M. Entertainment in 2012.  They now only have nine members but one is promoting his solo career, their names, including the former members, are: (in age order) Xiumin, Lu Han, Kris Wu, Suho, Lay, Byun Baekhyun, Chen, Park Chanyeol, D.O., ZiTao, Kai, and Sehun.  I’ll make the ones who left blue, and the one who is doing his solo green. If that wasn’t enough info, I don’t know what is- jk, if you want to know more click here

Okay so that’s all now comment what your favorite song is! Byeeee!

 

Weekly Themed Post #7
