Sigh…It never stops to amaze me how much SM Entertainment knows how to sell their pride and joy (DBSK/TVXQ)

Though I am a big fan of DBSK/TVXQ, I at least know when to hold my wallet when something good comes along, but not at the right price. Bare in mind, this post is based on only opinion. I am not against the boys at all. I am still a big fan…just supporting them on the sidelines now since life leeched all my money

I am sure everyone heard about the new Limited Edition Photobook/Poster that is coming out?

Normally I would try to blog once in a while. However, I have been so busy job hunting (cough cough yeah, fighting with the freshly graduated as well as all those who just got laid off cough cough), which isn’t turning out so great, oh well.

And to add more to the stress. I just found out that one of my dogs has a really nasty lump on her hand. the lump was growing out from one of her front paws. It was raw, black, dark red and the size of a bloody chick pea! I knew i hate those things for a bloody reason (totally random).

Either way, we brought her to the vet, and they checked it out. Then they dropped the bomb on me, stating that it might be a tumor/cancer lump.

I doubt that is what anyone would want to hear about that. My poor baby

Either way, been working like a slave to pay for this operation/scan/lab tests to see if it was or wasn’t cancerous.

After taking so many days off to spend with my baby, she finally got her operation.

A week later…the report concludes….

It wasn’t cancer! yay! what a relief!

I still wanted to know what that lump was! but they didn’t say anymore. How lame.

So after all that, and returning to me, crying her eyes out thinking I abandoned her…she never left my side…LOL. Don’t know if that is a good thing or a bad thing.

Oh well, have fun, the weather is beautiful…maybe when I come back, I will blog about what I saw at a NYC bookstore!

Title: 소울메이트/Soulmate

Episodes: 12 (actually 22)

Release: 2006

Title: Don’t Turn Away

Title: C’mon Through

Regarding this SOULMATE edit version of “C’mon Through”, I don’t like it much LOL, it really sounds as if he is constipated or something. Opt for the original one, a lot more smoother.

I think I have put off this drama series long enough! I remember how I would always look at this title and think it was another one of those corny sappy dramas that would get me annoyed to no end and the dreaded fast forwarding will come along. Boy was I wrong. It turns out I LOVE this drama!

OK….I just found out a few moments ago that this isn’t even a drama, its a sitcom…? what is the bloody difference, it felt like a drama to me!

Alright, I had a few people messaging me and also on the comments, asking where I bought my DBSK/TVXQ music scores.

I have no problems pointing people out to the right direction, since fans gotta help fans right?

There are a few places I found the scores at, however, I bought mine from one place which allowed me to have free shipping and no tax was added to the order, from what I can see, not sure how they priced it though, but it was the cheaper/cheapest alternative.

What more can a struggling college/post college student ask for right? fangirlism is a really hard thing to do man!

YesAsia (this is where I bought mine from):

TVXQ Music Score Volume 1

Price: $19.99 USD

TVXQ Music Score Volume 2

Price $17.99 USD

From what I know, any order that is over $25.00 USD from YesAsia is free shipping.

DVDHeaven (this is the site where I would highly NOT recommend someone to go to unless they are living in Korea or something. The shipping is ridiculously expensive and this is more or less a LAST RESORT for me if I can’t find anything from other sites):

TVXQ Music Score Volume 1

Price: $11.77 USD

TVXQ Music Score Volume 2

Price: $11.77 USD

Don’t let the price fool you, if you are living in the States like me, or even in Canada, the shipping might close to $17.99 USD EACH. And that is the with the CHEAPEST shipping they offer. Lets just say, no thanks! LOL.

Other then that, I am aware that there are many other sites that sells the Music Scores, however, shop with caution, the two sites that I mentioned above has almost never gave me problems, I have shopped there with many times and am pretty confident :D…

If you rather download it, then I could mention some sites which you can download them TRANSCRIBED from some fans, however, if you are a real true DBSK fan, then you would buy these Music Scores and add them to your collection ^_^

Ok I haven’t blogged in a while, but then man, this really got me really pissed.

How many of you have shopped on Amazon.com and saw the fine print that states:

“If you order in the next so and so hours/minutes, your order will be shipped in so and so days” ??

Well guess what? I have never ever had a problem with Amazon.com before, they have almost always been good and on time with their orders, the only time I had a problem was when I buy things from people who posted their things to sell, all of the time its only books i order anyway.

To make the long story short, I ordered something on Amazon where they had that quote stated above where they will ship the item within a certain day since i ordered within their time frame.

I ordered it when? like last month. I checked on my account, to find out that the item has still not been shipped out. So tell me, why the hell do you even put that “if you order within…” crap, when clearly they don’t even honor the statement!

Here is what I have to say. DON’T SAY/PUT SHIT UP IF YOU CAN’T GUARANTEE YOUR CUSTOMERS SATISFACTION!

Continuing on with the story, I e-mailed them a paragraph response stating how unsatisfied I am with their service. Let me paraphrase their response, since it means the same thing either way you look at it.

“We are sorry, we got delayed with the shipments, to compensate for our fuck up, we are going to CHARGE you $5.58 to ship your package even though you ordered over $25 which qualifies you for the FREE SHIPPING, and then we will REIMBURSE you the shipping fees AFTER your package has been shipped…have a great day!”

Let me ask you something, do you think I’m completely stupid, and ignorant? how the hell can you go and charge my card for shipping, when clearly it was YOU who fucked up? and with no permission to do so. Even if they “CLAIM” they were going to reimburse me for my shipping, this is highly uncalled for.

From a service that used to be 4.5 stars to me, I say Amazon.com just earned themselves a big fat ZERO.

What they should have done was given me a gift certificate after lying to me!

Today, I faced and failed myself as a person. My confidence had dropped to a new low. I always told myself to be strong, but instead, I broke down and showed the weak side of myself to people who I should be showing my strongest side to.

All this happened at work. It made me realize the mistakes that I had done when I pushed myself to finish school and just get a bloody job. Instead of thinking of what to improve, I was thinking of the “should haves” in my life.

Should have studied harder.

Should have keep pushing myself to go to get higher education.

Should have looked harder for a better job.

Should have worked harder.

Should have not rushed into things I knew I wasn’t ready for.

So many “should haves” and so much stress. I know that I am not the only person who is going through this phase. Some even have it worst then me, but then when you are so sucked into your own personal hell, you hardly notice those around you.

My ‘rents told me to grow a back bone and quit, telling me that I would find a much better job then what I am doing right now, or even go back to school, they will support me mentally, but not physically since they are gearing up for my brother to go to college soon, they don’t have enough money to loan me.

So I ask them, what is the point of quiting when I can’t even pay off my loans, and I won’t have any means to support myself?

Oh well, back to dwelling…tomorrow isn’t going to be any better…

Augh, I am going insane here with work and month ends work!

For those of you who doesn’t know what month’s end work is for an accounting department, its HORRIBLE for me oh for the love of overtime!!

You can’t take a vacation for the first week of the month nor can you take a vacation for the last week of the month, leaving you only the middle section to pick about. Now most of you probably don’t mind, but then when you have to submit in your vacation chart early to your boss with the “FIRST COME FIRST SERVE” label smacked on an e-mail, then you are shit out of luck if someone took a vacation week you so wanted.

Either way, for those who has commented on my blog, I didn’t mean to ignore you guys at all! I have just gotten back from a week vacation, and a long weekend soon after, and a pile of work thrown at me from all directions! In so, I apologize.

Let me answer some questions and requests in this post.

Title: They Kiss Again

Release: 2007

Episodes: 28

Out of quite a lot of Taiwanese Drama’s this, I must say is probably the only one as of right now, which i have prayed for a sequel to come along! judging by the failed Meteor Garden 2, and Lavender 2, whoever took over the storyline has totally killed the meaning of sequels. Either way, this is only my opinions to those sequels.Finally a sequel for They Kiss Again comes along, I am glued to my seat wanting to watch more and more.
