After having mental conflicts with myself on whether I should go back writing for AFF, I decided that I should because my story blog feels too lonely. So yup, Erika here has comeback with a... trollfic! *throws confetti* I've got nothing good in mind anyway except for this war story I've planned months ago, which is still in the process of being posted. -.- But yeah, click here to read.
Also, my AFF account is dead (it's not like I've been active or anything). So who wants to befriend me? Anyone? No. Okay. Click hur for awesomness!
I won't be able to update tomorrow or be online... I think, because I'll be exercising and jogging around the whole city. I've gotten too fat you know from eating all that junk food.
If anyone cares then I'm sorry for spamming you readers with all this crap of mine. I try to make this blog as useful as I can, I really do. So I attempt to write as many writing tips and upload freebies, to which I hope you'll benefit from.
Right now, I'm currently working on Version 13 for this site, and I decided to try a drop down menu for the navigation. It took me the whole night+morning figuring that shiz out and also finding a good tutorial. It may not be perfect, but it works pretty legit to me.
Guess what! Our bunk bed came today and I'm so happy that I'm no longer sleeping on that dirty carpet. Please excuse me/my sister's room, we don't have anywhere to put our junk at for the moment.
After so much arguments, I finally won back my spot at the bottom bunk, though it was originally planned that I was going to sleep there anyway.
I remember taking this picture while I was inside the airplane (Emirates) leaving the Phils. heading to Dubai.
That my friend is Asiana Airlines which is heading to Seoul... SEOUL! I'm so envious of those people in there T_T There was so much airplanes heading to Korea that night and I felt so empty. I was mentally screaming "take me with you" when those airplanes took off. But that all happened a month ago, so yeah~
Last thing I want to add to this very random post is... Gangnam Style! Oppa Gangnam Style that is...
Dang, there was so much hype about this video! This gave me a good laugh and it surprised me to see Hyuna in the video xD LOL I just had to reblog the "Exo Gangnam Style Version."

Feel free to correct me here, but I think 90% of the stories in AFF are about kingkas or gangsters (or are they the same thing?). It's comical how some of these authors portray them as "tough but caring" or "badass but secretly cute," when in reality a gangster is a criminal who is a member of a gang, and gangs do illegal things in short.
Better yet, I think I should show you what one looks like. No racism intended, but that's the best picture I could find without all those "bad" things. Totally the opposite of what you see in some of these stories huh?
Speaking of which, why do they always use L.joe for these types of characters? It just baffles me because I really don't see him fit to be a gangster according to those variety shows I've watched. Why can't he be a doctor for once?! I think that'd be sexy hot and not cliche. Hehe, L.joe as a doctor. *wiggles eyebrows*
Disclaimer: If you can't handle criticisms that well, then I suggest you shouldn't read this. Anything mentioned here is not targeted to anyone; these are just my presumptions.
One of the things that pisses me the most in AFF is when authors use Konglish... Extreme Konglish! As in to the point that you can't even understand what the fuck the characters are saying. I mean, it’s okay to use words such as unnie, oppa, or something light. But going too far and ending up like the one below is not acceptable.
"Annyeonghaseyo Sungjong oppa!"
"Neo babo ya!"
"Aniyo, I'm not a babo."
"Neh you are, wae did you throw my homework away, noona?"
"Jeorang gyeoronae juseyo."
No need for translations when I can't even understand that myself.
Unless you are Korean or someone who had studied the Korean language, it's not advisable for you to use Konglish because for all we know, the words up there might mean something offensive or better yet, like this. Wouldn't you feel embarrassed when something like that happens?
I’m back with a new layout and you know what that means… it’s-probably-not-gonna-stay-there-for-long-like-all the-other-layouts-I-make. Still, I think this is the best that I’ve done so this might last for long… hopefully.
WARNING: Read this rant at your own risk!
I dunno I still have my suspicions over my new home. Not the apartment, but the whole city. Everything here is just so different: my new school is only one or two miles, there’s lots of Asians, everything is near, and there was even a [very] old Asian man walking home from Target (you don’t see that in Georgia everyday)! Call me weird, but I grew up in a place where there are predominantly black people, and trying to get to the nearest store requires you to drive. I’m not used to being around that many Asians, which is pretty bizarre since I'm one myself. It’s too normal… and I kind of don’t like it. Maybe I haven’t gotten used to how things work around here. Even seeing the public bus stop by my new high school is making me spazz -.- I hope I didn’t offend anyone; I’m having a bit of a culture shock.
Oh and I was channel browsing and I found out my mom bought Mnet, some Chinese and Korean channels, and TFC :’D Thanks to that I can finally re-watch Be Careful With My Heart starring Richard Yap and Jodi Sta. Maria ^^ Another thing… I don’t know anyone here so I’m currently being a couch potato. Who wants to talk to me? Keke xD See ya who-knows-when!
Happy [late-ish] Birthday Yuto!!
EDIT: Just finished editing/adding more content to the pages and settings here. If anyone cares, my timezone moved from (GMT-05:00) Eastern Time to (GMT-08:00) Pacific Time, which is only a two hour difference.
I'm currently in El Paso, Texas right now and I'm loving it here... well, the hotel to be exact. It has free internet *creepy giggle* We're almost to LA and it's pretty cool how we got this far. Here are the states we passed by:
Alabama
Mississippi
Louisiana
Texas
That means we only have New Mexico and Arizona to drive by and then I can get my proper rest. Traveling through the desert can be a nuisance since the rest areas and gas stations are so far away -.- Worst thing is, our car may run out of gas. At least I saved LOTS of Exo pictures in my iPod just to keep myself entertained hehe.
Seems like I changed the layout again because some people are having problems with my cbox not refreshing correctly. Hopefully it'll work this time :D Currently watching the Olympics right now, go world! Well... bye-bye!
