So, I’ve decided to post more and bee a bit relaxed about my whole: ‘must write something different with pictures!’ philosophy, which is why I’m going to post this entry!
I recently came to learn about the singer 윤하/ユンナ/Younha! She’s a Korean singer who debuted in Japan with J-Pop. She sings, writes, plays a mean piano and can sing in English too! She is really cute and can really sing and play the piano great! I learnt of her after someone compared her to YUI (who is a J-Pop singer who plays guitar and writes her own songs, a bit like Michelle Branch if you know her; I like her too!). Anyway! I checked out a couple of Younha songs and at first I was a bit disappointed, I didn’t necessarily like the melody to the songs but after a few plays and watching some more videos I can only say that I’m pretty amazed at just how talented she is! She has a great voice and a sweet personality! Below are a few videos I picked that show a few different things as to why I can’t stop listening to her!
This song is called, Te wo Tsunaide (手をつないで) which I think translates as ‘Holding Hands’ but don’t quote me on that. It’s a bit of a rocky, poppy, melodic slice of J-Pop. Younha has a really pleasant voice that suits a lot of music but I really like this song for the music!
This song is called Bi Mil Bun Ho 486 (비밀번호 486) which translates as ‘Password 486′ and is a really cute poppy, rocky K-Pop song with really sweet lyrics – guys pay attention!
This song is a video of Younha singing Alicia Key’s If I Ain’t Got You and she sings it amazingly well! Just listen ^_^
*peace* <3
So, I know it’s been a long time since I last wrote here but nothing exceptionally interesting has happened. I am, however, just about to start university again so hopefully I’ll have lots to blog about! I’m going to be taking Mandarin and Japanese so that should be great fun! I’ll let you know how it goes and maybe even write about some of the stuff I learn!
Anyways! This morning as I was stirring from my slumber on a fine, autumnal Sunday morning I got into the idea that I would bake muffins today! So I looked up a random recipe on the internet, checked if we had enough ingredients and set about baking them! I wanted to cook a basic muffin to add my own ingredients to; first it was going to be bananas, then chocolate, then I was thinking – why not just try both! So I did! And I’m really proud because these ones actually look like muffins as opposed to the not so well honey and apricot ones I baked before… They are yummy nonetheless – you can really taste the bananas! Real, proper bananas; don’t you think it’s strange how ‘real’ things don’t always taste like the artificial flavours of said ‘real’ things. I’ve never tasted a strawberry that tasted like strawberry milkshake.
Here are a couple of pictures of the muffins! They look good, right?! =^_^= *peace sign*
