Flower Power

OHMYFREAKINGGODAAAAAAAH!!!!

SNSD JUST RELEASED THEIR FREAKING COME BACK WHILE I WAS TRICK OR TREATING AND IT IS REAL AND AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!

Flower Power is REAL!!! I can't believe it! This requires an extra big font of excititude. I didn't even realize this would matter so much. IT'S SO FREAKING AWESOME!!! The girls look amazing! Except donut-girl version of Sunny. But whatever.

AAAAAAAAAAHH!!!!

They are so freaking sexy and beautiful and aaaaah!!!! The lyrics aren't even up yet. I am the FIRST PERSON TO BLOG ABOUT THIS! Ha, yeah right. But still. I can't find any other posts.

The album isn't on iTunes. Actually, the album isn't released till November 21st. FLOWER POWER BETTER FREAKING BE ON ITUNES BEFORE THEN OR I WILL FREAKING EXPLODE.

It didn't always seem like the parts of the song matched up, so it's not their best... but I love it sooooooo much! Can't wait for the Soshi Vlog on this. IT BETTER BE ON ITUNES.

I don't like donut land. I mean, they look amazing, but it's just so bleached of color... it doesn't seem to go with the rest of their sets.

I love the individual shots of them whirling around. Tiffany is like WHOOSH and Yuri is super amazingly sexy and Hyoheon looks really good. Them girls getting down!

Even if the parts of the song don't exactly correlate, all of it is catchy and amazing. I just can't wait for lyrics! I have determined that although large quantities of lyrics are in English, it is in fact a Japanese Single. On a Japanese Album. That makes sense. 

Once this album is released, it is TOTALLY going straight to the top of my priority list. After the first three. But STILL!!! I wish I was like those other kpop fans, who start at the beginning of their groups and then have all the albums so they can just keep buying them as they are released.

If I had a million dollars, I would buy up my whole priority list. Then I wouldn't even NEED a priority list because I would just be gobbling up each delicious installment as it comes along.

I don't know why I'm so freaking hyper. Maybe because of candy? It's just... this is the first time I've actually witnessed an SNSD release. You cannot BELIEVE how fast comments are piling up on  Youtube. It's insane. Like, there'll be 50 freaking comments from "1 second ago" and I'll lean in to read it and it'll be swallowed by this wave of new comments. My observation-ness of it is enough to energize me.

SO EXCITED AAAAAAAH!!!!

The Signing Angst

Angst angst angst.
Everything on eBay comes with signed editions of albums and stuff! At only $20!

My plan is to request of my parents one ore two of So Cool, Black Eyes, and Breaking Heart.

I don't need signed stuff from T-ara - so many signatures. I'll go to individual cards or posters for that.

But the top result for Sistar So Cool is a signed copy... for $20 rather than fifteen. It has this big badge:

FREE ADDITIONAL SIGNED PHOTO SET.

In red. Plus rather obvious signatures on the picture. Do you think Mom will just skim over it looking for the best price? Or think it doesn't really matter?

Or will she see it, at only $5 more, and be like "Oh my gosh, that would make Julia so unbelievably happy!" I almost want to request specifically that I get the signed copy... but I don't want to go up and say that, it would be better if they could surprise me...

Maybe I could set Benj up to the task? He couldn't buy it himself, but he could conspire with Mom... I'll talk to him later. I just have this urge.

There are signed copies of every freaking Sistar thing (and T-ara, really) and I'm like "Screw this, I should just buy it all myself!"

The cheap copies of the T-ara photobook are still available. Hang in there! Surely most people will have already rushed to get them... Of course, I know I'll always be able to get them at sale price. Is it worth $50?
...
HELL YES!!! I'm insane like that.

But even if the five $27 copies get snatched up (which I'm trying to doubt, seeing as how long they've already been there, but maybe other people will get them for holiday presents too? Good thing Hannukah's so early this year...) there are still more expensive $40 and $35 copies available.

I'm having photobook angst. And album angst. I need to think about what I AM getting soon for certain. My macbook. At least one album. Look at my lists. Calm down.

Stop being bad.

Cat Sitting Hath Ended

Hark hark hark.
Yeah. They came home today while I was at book group. I went over to turn in the key. Kathy was very very nice. She gave me a wad of cash in an envelope. I gave Benjamin a 10.

I was like "Hey Dad, could I put this on my lap top account?"

And dad said something like, "Um, would that not perhaps require that such an account exists?"
Only not quite like that. He said it in a funny way that signified that he indeed knew he had been held responsible for the creation of this account. It was silly.

Anyways, I was like "Daaaaaaaaaad!"

So yeah. $160 down. In two days it will be $230. And guess what? Kathy asked if I might be free over Thanksgiving. And I am! That might really speed up my savings! Especially if they're gone the whole week... Saturday to Sunday? That's eight days... $160! Depending on how much Benjamin tags along. Thing is, now he anticipates $5 as his rate, because I boosted the price up to 10 to soften the blow of small earnings.

But I really had planned to give him $4... :(

How much I end up paying him doesn't really matter, because all that cash will be an unexpected bonus anyways.

Yay.
~Julia

P.S. I'm so glad you posted the list of albums in order! It makes me feel SO much calmer when it comes to wanting to buy. I don't feel rushed and panicked. I'll just amble down the list...

Should I make a whole extra Wishlist tab? It'd be basically the stuff on the side right now, but I could go more into detail of the purchases and stuff? Color coding? Numbers? More manageable lists? It might be worth it...

I LOVE AILEE

Ailee is one of the beautiful divas of Korea, who I encountered through Dream High 2 (Ailee was in the group HershE with Jiyeon and Hyorin).
She's a rookie. Only became an official pop star this year.

AND SHE IS THE MOST AWESOMEST PERSON EVER AAAAH

I am LIVE STREAMING a video chat with her NOW. RIGHT FREAKING NOW SHE'S TALKING SOMEWHERE TO ME AAAAAAAAAAH.

She is such a beautiful wonderful down-to-earth person. She's just so amazing. She was born in America and followed her dreams to Korea, starting her singing career at 15 years old. She's sweet and funny and really in touch.

AND SHE SPEAKS FLUENT ENGLISH AND I AM HAVING AN AILEE OVERLOAD!!!

People submit questions and she goes through answering them

One person asked her if she had a Jamaican accent. Um, what?

One person asked her if she ever wanted to be in an idol group. She said yes because in the waiting room the groups are all together and stuff, but she's all alone in the car and stuff.

One person asked her to say Happy Birthday to their brother Bruce. She grinned and was all "Happy birthday BRUCE!" So funny.

I'll just update with her wonderfulness.

She likes Spongebob.

She wrote her new song, I Will Show You, in English originally. Not meant to rhyme or anything. Just because she thought it was something to relate to. That makes me happy. I want to gush about her to Clarissa because she is amazing, but she'll probably be like "Oh, kpop", even though Ailee isn't really kpop style. Her songs are more of an American style anyways. And she writes her songs. In english. And she's not in a group. And she speaks fluent korean.

She learned Korean from her parents back in America. She went for a year in Korea in second grade.

Rrrgh, allkpop signal is sucking. Ailee is all worried.

Oh good, back online.

She puts her right shoe on.

Her nickname is Ailee, cuz it turns out her real name is Amy Lee. She also gets called bunny a lot.

She is so cute.

Last question! Aaaaaaaaah!

(She has a cute white dog.)

I like her a lot. She acts like just a normal, cool 23-year-old. Wow.

Don't go, Aileeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Nooooo...

She's thanking allkpop for the opportunity and stuff. She's being very sweet.
I love yooooooooooou!!!!

Sigh. Aaaaaaaand, she's out.

OH MY FREAKING GRR

Sigh. Like, minutes after I did that whole iTunes extravaganza, I caught up on the latest Soshi Vlog and discovered that....

SNSD's Paparazzi is now available on iTunes!

After ALL THAT calculations. This totally screws the tables.

Luckily, it's $1.29. So I probably wouldn't have bought it today anyways.

I've decided I want to buy it on iTunes. Even though it's a priority on my album wishlist. The sucky thing is that it's the ONLY song in the Paparazzi package, so I can't really justify buying it. But does it come with music videos? It might.
Anyways, I'm going to maintain its place on my wishlist because it's amazing. I'm also going to move it to the top of the iTunes budget. That's just how I roll ;)

(The cover of the iTunes edition is lame. It's like them, sitting in a room. No awesome paparazzi getup or anything like the physical album.)

In related impulsive decisions, I screwed my planning and bought my two songs on iTunes.

They were the songs I had planned, though. No craziness there. I'm seeing how long I can hold out before prompting dad.

Thing was, I told him at dinner that I was at my last song, and that I planned to get it next week. Good news is he seemed perfectly fine with my current conservative rate of spending, so if I explain that I was reckless for one last song, he probably won't hold out on me. Maybe tuesday? We'll see.

How much shall I ask for?
Well, I think it comes in increments of 10, but I'm not sure if that goes 10, 20, 30, or 10, 20, 50. Maybe I can check really quickly....
Okay, all measures of 10 from ten to fifty.
I'm thinking of asking for... forty?
Last time I asked for twenty, because the time before that I got fifty and snapped it up in about a month. Twenty is a lot more reasonable, and forty is much closer to fifty... but maybe I've proven I'm more responsible? Or maybe I should just settle and ask for thirty... but the thing is, I really don't want to be plunged back into the crazy cycle of avoiding spending for weeks on end once I hit twenty.
I really want to ask for forty.
I guess I will. If dad gets skeptical, I will immediately backtrack to thirty.
But seriously, 40 is a better idea.

iTunes Wishlist

To get money on my iTunes account, I have to petition dad.
...
FOR MY OWN MONEY. :(
He uses his credit card account or something to send me an iTunes gift card digitally, then deduces that amount from my bat mitzvah account.

This sucks, because it makes me feel guilty about using my own money. Some time it's hard to slow down.

In August I asked Dad for $20. I spent 10 of that rather quickly, within the first month, then coveted the remainder. If I want a song, I will reflect on that for at least three weeks before I allow myself to buy it.

I have $2.26 left.

That's enough for one $1.29 song and one $.99 song, or two $.99 songs.

BUT WHICH SHALL THEY BE? The nervousness that goes along with buying up a new song is quite agitating. I find myself being in the state of mind of planning to beg dad for permission before my money is even used up. I should go like this.

This week: buy song
Next week: buy second song
Week after that: freak out
Week after that: ask for money

That's another month of responsible saving and conserving right there.

Part of the freaking out ness is because I don't know which song I want to buy. I have a large number of songs that I want. But which are the most important?
Here's my iTunes list so far. Some of the kpop songs would be great to reserve for the purchase of a whole album, but for some it's just one song that stands out and my album list is already so long... Some songs, like from AOA and the SNSD Japanese singles aren't available on iTunes at all, which really sucks. Anyways, list:

-Night and Day (T-ara)

-We are Never Ever Getting Back Together (Taylor Swift)

-Why are you being like this? (T-ara)

-Like the First Time (T-ara)

-I Knew You Were Trouble (Taylor Swift)

-Flashback (Afterschool)

-Lipstick (Orange Caramel)

-I Don't Need a Man (Miss A)

-Love Alone (Miss A)

-Time's Up (Miss A)

-I Will Show You (Ailee)

-Go Away (2NE1)

-Blue Jeans (Lana Del Rey)

-Summer Sadness (Lana Del Rey)

-Loving U(Sistar)

It's a pretty substantial list. I'll give little commentaries now. 

-Night and Day (T-ara)

This is a GREAT song. It's not actually by T-ara, but it's labeled as such because it stars member Areum along with two other singers. This group doesn't have a name. It's just them. This song was used in T-ara's Sexy Love drama music video with the sword fighting and stuff. I hesitate about this one, because although it's a great song, it's more of a sad and slow song. While I know I'd value this a lot, I'm just not sure how much I'd actually listen to it once I get it.

-We are Never Ever Getting Back Together (Taylor Swift)

This song has received a lot of criticism from Taylor fans for being poppy and untrue to Taylor's nature or something. I'm like, chill out people. She can write music however she wants. Don't hate on it because the awesome pop tunes come from a country artist rather than some other star. Not CRAZY about this song, but it's good. 

-Why are you being like this? (T-ara)

From the Roly Poly album... tis a catchy song. Yay.

-Like the First Time (T-ara)

This is a great song - not that fast paced, but still very poppy and addictive. I think I'll wait for the album Breaking Heart on this one, since it is at the top of my album list.

-I Knew You Were Trouble (Taylor Swift)

Yay, more pop-like Taylor Swift! Taylor released this HUGE album which has been a big deal on iTunes called Red. iTunes has been releasing a ton of teaser singles. I don't know most of the songs, so I can't really judge how much I want them. Not a huge priority.

-Flashback (Afterschool)

This song is really catchy and cool and dramatic, but should I wait for the album? That's really the main reason I want that album, but it's sort of low on my priority list anyways... awesome song though. I'll dwell on it. Because I'm uncertain, it's probably not a priority.

-Lipstick (Orange Caramel)

Sort of the same situation as their other song Flashback... awesome song, but maybe worth the rest of the album?

-I Don't Need a Man (Miss A)

Not my favorite song by them, but it's a really good song. Sort of hip-hoppy. Although the album is all epic, I think it's worth just getting the main song first. Priority.

-Love Alone (Miss A)

This is a song by Miss A... in ENGLISH. It's awesome. They are great singers. Plus Min is like fluent. Not a huge priority right now though, just cuz there are a bunch of other songs floating around that I care more about at the moment.

-Time's Up (Miss A)

One of the best songs on their new album. Totally rocks, but maybe not a current first priority?

-I Will Show You (Ailee)

Really want this song. Ailee is amazing! Priority.

-Go Away (2NE1)

... Yeah, whatever... cool...

-Blue Jeans (Lana Del Rey)

I think I like this more than her other songs... she's an amazing singer. Priority.

-Summer Sadness (Lana Del Rey)

Hmm... this is still amazing, but not as much a priority as Blue Jeans right now.

-Loving U(Sistar)

I have this as a podcast, but the audio is terrible. I want to buy the song, but I think all things considered it's worth it to me just to wait for the album.

Alright, got that worked out. I can keep a fluid list of iTunes songs and purchases (starting now) on a sidebar. Meanwhile, let's use the notes above to create our priority list:

-Why are you being like this?

-I Will Show You

-Blue Jeans

-I Don't Need a Man

-Time's Up

Plan: 

This week (aka Today cuz I'm reckless like that) - I Will Show You

Next week - Blue Jeans

Let me see if the prices fit for those.

Okay, Ailee's is $.99, so that works!

$1.29

+$.99

iiiiiiiiis...

O.O

$2.28!

...

TWO CENTS AWAY!

Sigh. In a way this makes my job much easier. Two .99 songs it is.

1) I Will Show You

2) ...

Time's Up or I Don't Need a Man? I MUST CHOOSE.

OMG, they're not even the right price. Crap. Well, this is really working out well. Let me check the T-ara song... 

OK, that works. Before I decide on that, let me just sort all the prices...

Actually, I think I want to get Flashback. 

So there.

I'm reckless like that. DONE!

I WILL SHOW YOU AND FLASHBACK ARE MY FINAL DECISION.

BLAAAARGH.

The Deal with Stuff

I would love to be able to review and summarize songs and music videos and dances and overall albums on this blog. For that to happen, I need to accept that I can't always keep up with new releases real time. For example the comebacks which I reviewed a week ago in my pink notebook should not be posted here under the pretense of a current event.

I will not warp time like that.

That said, I have decided that I should feel free to post a review of anything, from any time, on this blog. I could review Sistar's So Cool album, from over a year ago, and feel good about that. I'll just work on getting all the information on this blog.

Thahnks!

Laptop Savings Plan

Laptop Savings Plan

Objective: To have saved enough money outside of my current bat mitzvah credit to be able to purchase a MacBook Pro.

Circumstance: Urgent situation at school, not urgent at home. Parents have volunteered to pay half price. Hopefully parents will understand that I want to use lap top outside of school?

Price: The minimum price for a used but “like new” macbook pro on amazon is one thousand dollars. Parents pay half, thus the price is $500.

Budget:

I receive just over $80 a month from Hebrew school. From that…

$70 > laptop savings account

$10 > bat mitzvah credit (for other spendings)

Then I will be receiving $100 for cat sitting across the street. If Benjamin helps out, he will receive share. Here is current plan for that:

I do not tell Benjamin how much I will pay him. If he helps out, it should be because he wants to help.

I pay Benjamin $4 for every day he helps, giving him a maximum of $20 at the end of the week.

I expect he’ll come 3 times out of 5? Maybe more, I do not know.

If that’s true, I will receive $88.

We’ll use $90 as an average for my estimates.

Cat sitting:

$90 > laptop savings account

nothing goes to bm account

I plan to ask for money from relatives on the holidays. I’ll probably ask mom, dad, Benjamin, and maybe Aunt Diana for kpop stuff, but that’s still a lot from grandparents.

If each couple contributes $25, and maybe one gives $50, that’s $100.

Hannukah Money:

$90 > laptop savings account

$10 > bat mitzvah credit

I will then use some bat mitzvah money to buy some other albums and things.

I might change my mind and add all the money to the laptop account when the time comes if I’m feeling impatient; after all, I’ll have money pouring into the credit account once I stop saving.

Same thing applies for birthday! Wishlist for parents, brother, friends, and aunt – money from other relatives! Let’s assume I get the same amount of money,

Birthday Money:

$90 > laptop savings account

$10 > bat mitzvah credit

Same system. I then use credit to buy myself some other goodie online. Yay.

            Again, I save $70 from salary a month – let’s see how much that adds up by my birthday.

September > $70

October > $70

November > $70

December > $70

January > $70 (that will come later than my birthday, but whatever)

That’s a total of $350 by the end of January – paired with all the other money I’m getting, not all of this is necessary. Let’s plot out my savings by the end of each month.

September:

-$25 starter money

-$70 salary

Total: $95

October:

-$95 from September

-$70 salary

-approximately $90 cat sitting

Total: $255

(half way there!)

November:

-$255 from October

-$70 from salary

-no other sources of income yet discovered

Total: $325

December:

-$325 from November

-$70 from salary

-$100(?) from relatives

Total: $495

At this point all I need is 5 extra dollars to tip the balance. I don’t even need to wait for January, and I can ask for more items from my wishlist for my birthday instead of money.

If I want to slip in a little extra cash at any time, I know what it takes to boost up the speed! I will have my lap top before the start of second semester. Yay! (Also, it is likely that Christmas sales might boot prices down in december, which would be amazing! The question is - which is the better deal? New lap top on cheaper price, or used lap top on regular price? $1,000 versus... what?)

Technology

I have an iPod nano, 8G. It's just this tiny thing with a touch screen, but it's super useful. Emma had one like it. It was orange, mine is blue. Then Emma's dad lost hers and replaced it with this super cool new thing - much taller and spiffier. It can play and upload videos. Hers is now this sort of turquoise-y blue. Anyways, mine can create playlists (but not name them) and upload pictures. It has a radio and a fitness app. You can change the wallpaper from 9 selections.
It's really awesome, and it gives me a bunch of music, but I wish it had slightly more space. They also come in 16G. Also, music videos would be cool.

Okay, so here are pictures of my type of nano:

Then here's Emma's: (She has the weird blue one in the front of this first picture)

These new iPods being released now come with the weirdest earbuds ever. They're really effective, though.

Then while picture surfing, I came across these other "nanos" that would be unbelievably awesome as well.

So that's that. One day I'll own them all. Every one of them. One day I'll have them.
God, I'm so greedy.

Moving on...

Benjamin and I share a desktop. It's a samsung monitor, but the console is a mac. I don't know how it works exactly. Benj is always on my neck about spending too much time there (partly just to get me in trouble), and I feel self conscious back to back with mom.

At school, I'm using Dad's old lap top from like 2002. It's clunky and big and slow. I can't watch videos on it. Safari crashes. Downloads don't work. iTunes can't connect. For some reason iPhoto can't open, yet is in the applications folder. It didn't come with word. The scanner and printer drivers don't work.
Blech.

That said, I know how lucky I am, and how rich my life is. I'm not taking this for granted (well maybe a little bit). This is a place for me to be selfish. I am perfectly aware of my benefits.

Technology I want:

iPod 6:
The iPod 6 is a bigger rectangle, like Dad's, only slim and white. It has music, pictures, camera, video, iMovie, and skype, plus more memory. Kind of a non-trashy iPhone without the phone. No stupid games either. Thumbs up! Mainly I would want it for iMovie on the go. $166, I think.

iPod nano 5th generation:
Like the kind Emma has - really cool. I don't feel any particular need to get this, and if I had the iPod6 I wouldn't, but it's smaller and portable with video. Thumbs up in general. (Although, it has been previously noted there are like a bazillion awesome nanos out there. Any one of those would be dreamy.)

 

Nexus 7:
Unbelievably cool tablet thing! Better than an iPad, because it's smaller. Not sure how that would compare to mini ipad though :). It's just the right size, and it feels cool and private. Many neat apps, and it runs smoothly. Way awesome! Only $200.
(NOTE: Drawback - no front camera, unlike iPad. Good for taking self-pictures, not so good for documenting others)

Lap top:
My ideal lap top would be a MacBook pro. 13 inch I would think, except maybe 15 inch runs faster and has more space? Casey uses a 13 inch, so I'm sure it would be fine. Super epic screen quality, way fast, and newest iMovie and iPhoto and Word. It's primed to use these way epic new picture and video editing programs - Aperture and Final Cut Pro - but you have to pay like $70 to download them. At my level of expertise; not worth it. It's fast, light, and snazzy. I could carry it back and forth and use it for school and home!
