If EXO were Filipino, Jongin would be a ka-DDS. Suho would be for Grace Poe kasi kasama yung pamilya niya sa political dynasty na yun. Kay sharing lang hahahahaha.

My exam is in a week and I still don't understand this damn lesson on regression SOS

I'm going into the third and bloodiest year of college where it'll be decided whether or not I'll be able to stay in my program (double major: business administration & accountancy) or be removed and moved to business administration, and while i did pretty well in my accounting subjects last year, i'm scared TO DEATH because it'll be 10x harder this year. more tears, more work. i'm not prepared for this mental and emotional wreck of a school year.

Appreciation post to BTS for performing so well and giving their all in Epilogue in Manila last night. I'm still on a post-concert high. It was the second best concert I've been to, bested only by my ult group 2NE1's All Or Nothing two years ago.

Which male idols do you think are gay?
chokemekjm replied to cold soba's topic in Celebrity News & Gossip
speculations aside, I feel really happy as a male fan that he acknowledged them and didn't brush their being fans as weird. feels like I can confidently go to their concerts without being judged by them. -
Jongdae stays the least lip syncing member of EXO, my vocal god

it kinda feels frustrating to be painfully self-aware of the transactional nature of the idol-fan relationship. thinking that idols love and care about us fans feels really good and make us feel that the time and money we spend on them is worth it, but i think the appreciation they have towards their fans is more rooted on the profit they get from us. sure, they thank us for the 'support' but really, what is this support other than physical album sales and sold out arenas? it's no secret that groups are engineered and promoted to make it seem like we're their bffs, their potential soulmates, etc. and that's how they earn; that's how they create a loyal fanbase and profit. we fall into this illusion of some sort of special relationship with our idols and yes, while it does gives me happiness, it's devastating (to me at least) whenever that illusion is broken (when the idols' true selves are revealed by dating news, abuse scandals like JYJ, DUI cases, sexual assault allegations, etc.) it's sort of interesting how precarious the relationship is, how both are disposable to each other. a fan can stop caring about her bias group, and become an anti, and well, i don't think groups care much about their fans in the first place (i mean, they do, as their clients. but not on a real friendship caring level. and we wouldn't expect that anyway.) however, the idols hold so much power over our emotions as fans than we do over them. when they do something that hurts us, that's money and time wasted. when fans leave a group's fandom, that's just another supreme cap that these idols won't be able to buy. it's sort of makes me sad how it's engineered, that either way, the idol wins, and we're just the fools who fell for these false promises of love #DRAMA (with very few extreme exceptions of course, like yoochun, whose career is basically over)

I honestly don't mind the fact that male idols have crazy possessive fans and sasaengs...Lol. I mean, companies engineer groups to make fangirls possessive towards them, it's what they want, it's what gets them money. I'm pretty sure groups who have succeeded got there, at least in part, because of these entitled fans. People complain of these fans and say how much they want them to disappear, but that's wanting your oppas to lose a large part of their income. You're effectively trying to eradicate the mentality/culture that gave your boys their success.

EXO is my current bias group right now, but lately seeing them has been really making me feel inadequate, insecure, and honestly hating myself, and I don't know why
-
Aside from the stupid airhorn in One and Only, I actually like EX'ACT's b-side tracks They Never Know is my jam
-
Am I the only one who still gets sad whenever Kaistal is brought up? Hahaha. I don't know why, he isn't even my bias. And I loved f(x) way before I liked EXO (I was even a Kai hater before lmao) It seems like everyone here is like "oh yeah they fuckin" and I'm just... "I'd rather not talk about it :-/"

Literally what is the point of the bashing thread if I'm gonna get negged for posting negative stuff I felt I needed to get out like wtf I thought that that was the proper avenue for that

I wonder who Kyungsoo has fucked (because he's 23 now and it's impossible he hasn't), where he managed to do it, when??? (like when does he have time tho), who the girl was or how the girl managed to snag him, and how he is in bed (when he's so unintentionally cute?) I get so emo when I fall into these kinds of thoughts I'm gonna kermit
