Just a Message Away

June 02, 2013 0
Just a Message Away
I can remember the times when cellphones cannot function without credits. Now, it's like so easy to keep in touch. But of course you still have to have wi-fi connection or that LTE shiz I don't know anything about. Anyways, I want to review 3 of the relatively new (to me) messaging apps out in the market right now. WeChat, Line, and Kik. I hope this helps you a little bit. I'm gonna say it ahead now, I used an app called CocoPPa to like design those three apps but then again I wouldn't probably keep it because you can't delete the original one so what's the point? Also! The notification wouldn't actually appear on top of the customized app. The way this would make the phone pretty is that when you already downloaded all the pretty icons, out the original ones at the end so it wouldn't like ruin the whole pretty icons idea. Anyways.


To be fair though, I actually have Line and Kik for quite a while now. Probably a year now. But then one day, WeChat monopolized Facebook and  Instagram and I was like, what the heck is happening here? And then I asked my sister what it is and she was like, I have it na. It was advertised kasi. When I watched the commercial, it was pretty impressive and I don't blame the general population for wanting to be part of it right away. But then yesterday ago, I decided to download it because I thought I would just like see it for myself. And so I did. And then the usual registration stuff right, after all is done, I saw 10 of my friends right away. That's like how overrated it is. Can I just say that I only have Line and Kik because I used to use them to talk to my auntie in Japan. Because it's really cheaper that way. I used to exchange regular international messages with her before these apps happened so thank goodness, right? But now I actually talk to my friends with both those apps so whatever. My mom also used them to remind me at night to turn off the wi-fi when I'm not using it anymore. 

IRRELEVANT COLLAGE
So my verdict? I don't really see the hype that much. My sister described We Chat as Facebook but without the games. The reason I liked it is that I actually had an important conversation with a co-intern and friend of mine so that really made WeChat kind of useful to me. At the end of the conversation though, she was like, beware of the Look Around. I didn't ask what it is about but I thought it was like 'Who's Viewed Me' and that I should be careful who's profile I'm looking at or something but then after a while, I found out that it's like people 'around' you messaging you and stuff. It's not totally useless and a waste of time because my high school classmate messaged me there. It can get annoying after a while though. I feel like it's made so public. If you don't want to expose your location and don't want strangers messaging you, go for Line. As of the other features, I still think Line wins. I haven't played using Line though but they have games (not useful to me), camera (for editing), and other stuff. WeChat is kind of like that but without the games and the camera. Also, I found out that WeChat's stickers are very much Line's but still kind of underdeveloped. Well Line started like that so we shouldn't probably underestimate it. Kik is like very minimalist. You can't do anything about it. Deal with it. I actually think I like Line better than the other two.

ARTISTS I FOLLOW ON LINE
Also, Line also have a feature where you can join or follow or add FAMOUS CELEBRITIES but I just don't know how personal their official Line is to the artists but I like that it is somehow a gateway for the fans to connect to their idols. Mostly Korean idols so if you're into K-Pop, you might lean towards Line more than anything. JYJ is like fun to follow. They send in pictures and stickers and crazy stuff. You know what I think? This is kind of like Twitter, I figured. It's like Twitter but with a more personal approach. It's like them messaging you personally and stuff. Which is always nice, yeah? Can I just say that I like this fans-artists feature of Line more than KakaoTalk because it can get annoying on Kakao. I'm just saying. But me likey KakaoTalk! But that's another story. So that's my sort of view and I really hope I helped you or you were able to pick up something.
LINE ★★★★ | WeChat ★★★ | Kik ★★★

G-Dragon's One of a Kind MV. Review.

G-Dragon's One of a Kind MV. Review.
Wild and young! Yes sir! You're one of a kind!


Oh! And I was so surprised to see Lydia Paek! She did great! I didn't know she's Korean though.

I mean, the whole video is just so G. So GD. When I say GD, I mean ARTISTIC FANTASTIC. 

Can I just say that this picture is so cute! I mean, this music video is kind of confusing but whatever. LOL. 


He also became Ken for a second but he got slapped by barbie. I don't know what's the relevance but yeah. It happened. Maybe view has something to do with my poor Korean. LOL. Seriously! 

He also became a fancy boxer wearing a very expensive looking helmet. But despite wearing something fancy like that, he still lost the fight. Oh well. It happens. 


And then he became some sort of a vampire/monster/freak. I don't even know what happened. Well, my basis of the transition is this.


And then after that, the environment turned fancy. I don't know. It's just genius. 

And then after dancing with some girls and some animal, and after some wardrobe changing and stuff, and after some glass breaking and tennis playing, Taeyang appeared to dance some more and display his hair? I don't know. 

I think this video is awesome. Sort of. I don't understand it though.

Why I love Big Bang.

Why I love Big Bang.

Big Bang might not be the first K-Pop group that I noticed, listened to, and loved but as far as I am concern, they are one of the best that I came across.

This post might not be able to give information for those who are not yet familiar with the group but I hope you check them out. Come be a VIP. You know you want it! ;)

So why do I like them? It's hard to put into words actually. Really. I think it’s because their talent is just so pure that you can’t actually break down stuff. You know! Like chemicals. It's also hard to resist not to like them more and more. Something like an addiction.

I like their personalities too. How did I know?

Come on K-pop fans. We check their lifestyles, their pasts, their friends, relatives, neighbors and whatever left for there to check. Yes? That may be exaggerated. For I only check on their lifestyles. Wait, I do profile check too. Anyway. They are also hilarious. In many ways. I usually type in “Big Bang Funny” on YouTube and get a lot. Some videos I already watched 10 or more times.

See, I tend to digress. I can’t really explain. Just in case you're wondering, and I know you're by now assuming, YES. GD is my favorite member. I won't say that he's the most handsome member though. I would like to give that credit to TOP. And probably not the funniest. Because I'd say that would be Daesung. But why him? Certainly not because he's the leader because I don't usually look at things that way. I go for the underdog most of the time. Well, not that I look at things that way. So I like GD not because of reasons like that. I like him because I like him. Well, that may sound cliche but that's the way it really is.

One thing that I also like about them is that on stage, they really look very enthusiastic and that it's really obvious that they do like what they're doing. Something like they just look so nice and it's as if they're just doing what they love on stage. Something like that.

So yeah! I wish to see you guys on the front seat. VIP stand up. Everybody stand up.

BIG BANG IS BACK!

BIG BANG IS BACK!
MY BABIES! NO! NOT LITERALLY.
If you know me (I doubt), you know that these babies are mine. I mean, it's ours of course but they're mine. As far as I can remember, I liked them because a friend of mine made me watch G-Dragon's Shine A Light concert and that's where it all started. I'm really happy for them and I wish them success and may they be everywhere this comeback. Fighting!
