Gwiyomi Viral @ Kiyomi The next Gangnam

Recently there is this Kiyomi thing going on, it is being said that, Harlem Shake has shake off the  Gangnam style, and now, people start to forget the stupid LAME harlem shake. now everyone is talking about  Gwiyomi(Kiyomi). I wanted to do the Gwiyomi dance, but then again, it is actually meant for cute people. with my face, no matter how cute i act. it is still a failure. Then i had this chance of recording this korean friend of mine in a dinner, so i decided to do a blog post about this Gwiyomi Viral issue.






What is This Gwiyomi about?
“The Gwiyomi Song” (귀요미송, meaning “The Cutie Song”) is a 2013 chiptune pop song by South Korean indie singer-songwriter Hari. Upon its release on the Korean web, the song quickly went viral on virtually all top music charts and even inspired a participatory video series in which the participant performs a repertoire of cute hand gestures to the song.

The Origin of this song and term?
Gwiyomi (귀요미, pronounced as Kiyomi) is a South Korean internet slang term meaning “cute” or a “cute person” used in somewhat similar vein to the Japanese term “Kawaii.” Composed and performed by two South Korean aspiring musicians Dandi and Hari, the song was originally uploaded in late January 2013 and officially released as a digital single on February 18th, 2013 (below, first video). Within days, the title of the song had become the most searched term on the Korean search portal site Naver. 





The Lyrics

And Quickly people posted a lot more, and created their own hand actions that is cute to them. 



This is what people compile together as their own preference top 10 cuties


This is Eunjee Choi, the korean friend that infected me with this Gwiyomi Virus. 

I hope everyone could enjoy this trend, it wont be long that it might be blown away by another viral video.
All i can say is thank you for killing off the annoying Harlem shake. 

Some of my friends wanted to check out me doing this gwiyomi song. so i decided, for the first time of my life, i am gonna do it. 


*cover face*


Hasta Luego! Cheers ~

Long Lost Journal - Trust

Today I found this Long Lost Journal. So i Decided to post it Here. Well It is a Dream That  I had before and I wrote it down. Hope this will Bless anyone that read it. 





Today I had a dream,

The first part of my dream is,
I was at a prayer meeting which my brother is leading, the presence of God is there and that everything is SUPERNATURAL! But I am sleeping in it. My brother said to me “YOU are slacking, something is wrong with you!!” I really didn’t like my brother scolding me that way.

After awhile, someone came to me (he is a leader). I don’t remember who is it but he certainly is someone that I admire and respect (in the dream). This man asked me one question. “Something is wrong in your life, what is that?” at that point in the dream, I have a major problem or a sin (I’m not so sure already). I was so scared to answer him; I told him another problem I am facing (which I also don’t remember now). He answered “fix it” and then he left.

I was thinking to myself, how to fix it? Why did he say something like that and leave?

I don’t remember what happen after that, which leads me to the 2nd part of the dream

I met this man again, this time he went straight up to me. I knew it in my heart that he knows what I am going through and that he know I lied to him the other time. He wanted the biggest problem that I am facing but I tell him other small ones. That is why he said “fix it” that’s all.

This time he said “we are humans and that humans are weak, we sin, we have problems and we are not perfect. That is why; we have friends and leaders to help us, to encourage us, to cover us, to protect us.”

At that time, I understand one thing. More like I learn something new.

We are always hiding our problems and our sin. But we have leaders and friends. We say we trust them and we know we can trust them. But in the end, do we really trust them? Did we act out our trust to our friends?

When we have a problem and sin, we should just say it out to the right person who is our leader and our close friends. If we do not, how are we giving them the chance to prove our trust? How are they going to protect us? How are they going to encourage and comfort us?

If we do not do these things, we can never overcome the sin and the problem that we are facing. We will be haunted by them forever. We will face the same problems again and again.

Hasta Luego! Cheers

Fight to the death with Thanatos


Its Been awhile since  i wrote anything  in this blog. i promise this week i will write  more and  update more with pictures. :)

Here is a story i wrote base on a friend's imagination:

            A tale was told, it was of a lake where lost souls were wandering around with nowhere to go. This was for a spiritual fowl beast was dwelling in the lake, snatching lives every time travelers tried crossing the lake. This beast was named “Thanatos”.
The God of Death - Thanatos

            One day three strong wizards came to this lake, they planned to outwit Thanatos to cross the lake without Thanatos knowing it by using magic to make a bridge. Thanatos was furious when he found out about this and stops them in the middle of bridge. He gave them each a wish by acting to award them of their bravery.
Eldest Brother Ter-Ry
            The elder brother, Ter-Ry wanted ultimate power and so Thanatos gave him the most powerful wand to summon great magic. The second brother, Desm-Ond wanted the power to manipulate love, and so he was given the potion of love. The youngest brother, Just-In was a humble man and wanted something that would help him to evade from Thanatos. So Thanatos gave the youngest brother his own cloak of invisibility.

Second Brother Desm-Ond


Third Brother Just-In

            Ter-Ry went to the nearest town to try out his new power and killed the strongest wizard in town. So he bragged to the whole town of his ultimate strength. However in the night while he was asleep, another jealous wizard slit his throat. That is how Thanatos successfully claims Ter-Ry for himself.

            Desm-Ond decided to find the girl he truly love and manipulate her love by giving her the potion of love. The girl was deeply in love with him due to that potion. As time pass by Desm-Ond was burdened by the guilt of his actions knowing he will never have the true love of the girl whom he loved. By hanging himself, Desm-Ond ended his own life with full of guilt and regret.

            Thanatos after claiming both the brother looked everywhere for Just-In but he could not find him. Just-in knowing what happened to his brother, felt cheated by Thanatos. He decided to stop Thanatos from hurting more people. He continued searching for the weakness of Thanatos. One day he found that, by drawing magic circle around the lake with blood, the power of Thanatos could be weaken and thus make killing Thanatos was able.

            However, to draw a magic circle is not an easy task. He would need the power of Ter-Ry and the wisdom of Desm-Ond. Regretfully, Just-In’s brothers has passed away claim by Thanatos himself. So Just-In decided to use the forbidden spell passed down in his family which is the forbidden magic of Resurrection. With that, he forcefully summoned his dead brothers back from death only for a substantial amount of time adequate to form this magic circle around the lake.

            With their limited time, the three brothers calculated the area of the lake with a secret technic said to be the most powerful among all sorts of calculation in this world which is only pass down to the disciples of the arch mage, Mahatma M.

Arch Mage Mahatma M

            In time, the three brothers completed the calculation and draw the magic circle. Thanatos was greatly weakened, and Ter-Ry took the advantage and hit Thanatos with the strongest spell he could cast with the ultimate powerful wand Thanatos gave him. While Desm-Ond wittily bind Thanatos’ movement with magic spell and Just-in gave his best to attack together with his brothers.

            Thanatos was utterly defeated and could no longer exist in this world. There are still little time left enough for the brothers to give each other their parting farewell. After that, time is up and Ter-Ry and Desm-Ond slowly disappear as the magic of resurrection start to lose its effect. Just-In continued his life and enjoyed his time with his family and pass away at old age.



The above story is just a make up, and the edited pictures are also made. It is not made to humiliate anyone. Above story was made with the guidance and advise  of Terry Vun. As to make it for apart of his assignment. I took the liberty of  posting it on my blog as I wrote the story due to his inspiration. Permission Granted by Terry Vun.

A little story

Once, there was a boy named Oudeis living in a small village. He lives with his family at the outskirt of the small village. Everyone living in the village is proud of their own village. They call it Megaliio. The Villagers have a saying, "Magnificent Megaliio!" is the two words that is kept on their lips every time they talked about their village.
Oudeis' Home in Megaliio


Megaliio is a village though small, is filled with many heroic people. Megaliio is a village where many great people come from. It is a famous village said to bear forth Great heroes for many has heroes are from Megaliio. Therefore, living in Megaliio is like living in a village where super strength, extra courageous acts, justice and righteousness are seen everyday. The pressure and expectations of becoming a great person, making a difference is a norm.


Oudeis lives his life quietly without much presence. No Villagers remembers his name nor his family. Oudeis is a boy born into a insignificant family living at the edge of Megaliio. However, Oudeis is a boy full of imagination. Oudeis always dream of doing great things, living his life as a hero, saving many village from bandits and thugs. He thought to himself " One day i will be the protector of Megaliio and people will remember me". Because Oudeis is a shy and quiet boy, he made very little friends. Looking at great people around him, admiring and wanting to be great has become a habit for Oudeis.


One day, Oudeis woke up from a dream. It feels like the dream is so real. He couldn't believe it. He has been doubting himself, being a person that cannot do anything and have no special talents. comparing himself to others around him, he is seriously insignificant and useless. Thus this dream speaks strongly to him. In the dream  he was walking in the mountains behind Megaliio, Deep in the forest. Oudies saw a hidden cave and went in it.
The Forest


The cave
In the cave, it was dark and wide. For the first time  in his life, Oudies felt a strange presence. A presence that felt like an immense power. At the thichness of the presence, Oudies' soul is much pressured to the extend that he could not breath. The incredible Aura woke Oudies from his dream. Oudies is deeply disturb, he could not continue sleeping. His eyes are wide open for the whole night. All he could think is "What is this power?". It doesn't feel evil, yet it is amazingly great. On the first sight of sunlight, Oudies decided to head for a hike into the mountain to search for this cave he saw in his dream.


Oudies track according to his dream. To his surprise, every single step he take looks just like in his dream. After trecking into the forest for awhile, Oudies came to the entrance of the cave and he went into it.
