Two beats in Asia

As every country, Taiwan has their favourite songs as well. There were two of them which were played in every club at least twice a party... and, the funniest of it all, both of them were NOT Taiwanese! :)

First one: a bunch of guys from Korea:




for more curious people:

Super Junior (Korean: 슈퍼주니어), often referred to as SJ or SuJu (슈주), is a 13-member boy band from South Korea formed in 2005. Sorry, Sorry was a critically and commercially successful hit in Asia, becoming 2009's best-selling Korean-language album in South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, China, and the Philippines. Sorry, Sorry won a Disk Daesang (Album of the Year) at the 2009 Golden Disk Awards.

Cool, huh?

And this one is even better! :)




The song actually starts at 2 minutes;)

"Nobody" is a dance pop song produced by Park Jin-young and recorded by Korean girl group Wonder Girls. Released as a digital download single on September 22, 2008 in their native Korea, the song became popular within hours, becoming a top search term and ranking #1 on various digital music sites.

so far this semester there are no hits like that.

Well, waiting for them! GO Korea! :)

The big comeback!

It is extremely annoying when others are right about you and your doings. And even more annoying, when they know you better than you know yourself. This is what Jimmy reminded me about a week ago - he said that I would be able to write only for a couple of months and so it happened. But I decided to say no! I am stronger than that and I will prove to him and myself that I can finish what I started. And there is one good motivation for that: I really want to have something to remember after I come back home :)

Actually, there are a couple of reasons for me stopping writing. First of all, going away from home for such a long time is more difficult than I expected. There are moments of apathy, loneliness and sleepless nights. Of course one might say that in that case you can be bloging and writing all the time. Yes, that is true... But what about? At the time nothing seems worth mentioning, and afterwards it seams it is already to late for it. Than there are some trips you make abroad, but when you come back some stuff has to be done, presentations to be made etc. and you are not in the mood for writing. And then you forget about writing, and there is another trip, holidays, break, exams... what to say, a lot of excuses. But recently there was a lot of time to make some thinking as well and that is why I decided to make this small comeback. So than... here I go! hopefully it will be better than the last time :)

And there is some stuff to write about: trip to Philippines, one month in China, Christmas in Taipei, New Year's  Eve, some cool parties, Sun Moon Lake, exams, break time, shitty weather (raining right now...),studying Chinese, new semester and much more I guess.

And NBA Playoffs. Go Suns and Jazz! :)

So - let's get it on!
