AN UPDATE. FINALLY.<br /><br />I apologize for having the site in such an inactive state. I'll work on the layout tomorrow (with Angelo) hopefully I'll be over my designer's block. In case you were wondering what the hell I've been doing, I was busy celebrating Christmas with my joyous family and catching up with my friends around the world (consider me global; I have friends in every continent in the world.) Anyway, I was going to do it after Christmas but then I received The Hunger Games Trilogy as a present (thank you, Mother) and I got excited. I read the three books in two days- I am fucking proud of my accomplishment- and now I have to suffer as I wait for the movie to premiere next year (March, I believe.)<br /><br />So I'm okay. I was not sick. I was before Christmas but now I'm feeling okay. I'm updating via my mom's lappie while I updated my PC yet again. This time, I had the important files I can't bear to loose in a USB file (in fear that the incident from last time happens again- I'm prepared this time.)<br /><br />Thank you for the gifts, dear friends! I'm sorry if I didn't give any banners this year. Basically, I banned myself from the internet for a whole week (not entirely; I was still on twitter, chatting with Arom and Chazzie and other friends about stuffs) but now that I've got things done for the holidays, I shall be back soon.<br /><br />I told myself I would try on making trailers too, but I can't get the stupid program to work on my computer. I'll find other ways, later, but now I'll focus on looking for new inspirations to get rid of my horrendous designer's block. Well, I did find new inspirations; like The Hunger Games, Dramione, more Onew, a new not-so-intense rivalry with Arom over Tabi, more and more Dramione, but more of The Hunger Games and everything that is related to those mentioned above.<br /><br />I am totally outdated with K-pop, but what the heck? I'm only anticipating for Big Bang's and SHINee's ultimate comeback next year. And I know the boys won't disappoint me.<br /><br />Expect a new layout and tons of updates around this week (if I don't update this week then probably the next.) I'll come up of new rules and new services as well, now that I have a new co-admin. (How come I forgot about this? This was the most important update!) Welcome Angelo, my previous co-admin in Exquisite. We had difficulties running Exquisite together (he barely helped with the requests and all) and so we decided that it's easier if he help me out in this site instead (no requests; just updates.) In fact, we're making the layout- together- for our comeback this week- or next week. So yey!<br /><br />I think that is it. I know people are wondering when can I get Tinted Shade ready. Hopefully, before the year ends, or at the last day of the year itself. I must not waste time. Angelo, do our layout now! Keke (look at me enjoying the feeling of being in charge again!)<br /><br />May the odds be ever in your favor!<br /><br />Signing out, the wicked witch of the far east.<br /><i><span style="color: #e06666; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;">siriuslyranee</span></i><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-7822225607164356985?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-56894444382383297042011-12-16T21:42:00.000-08:002011-12-16T21:43:22.701-08:00So... my bad. Hehe.<br /><br />Apparently, when you update your computer, you're going to loose some of your files. I lost the coding for the troublemaker layout, so I just went to blogskins and borrowed the first one I found. Remind me not to update my computer, ever.<br /><br />I actually finished the layout days ago, but since I was busy with school and other stuffs I didn't post it. Darn me and my stupid choices.<br /><br />And the thing I hate about this is that I don't feel like making the code again. It took me so long to make it, and I hand code my codes! You know how frustrating and long it takes to type out one legit code in notepad? People who steal codes, have shame; it takes fucking time and effort to do it, just so you know.<br /><br />Before I get to a rant again, I'll think of something. I'll probably come up of a new layout. <b>Argh, stupid Windows updates.&nbsp;</b><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-5689444438238329704?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-49641416704957064052011-12-02T20:12:00.000-08:002011-12-02T20:15:35.736-08:00Okay, sorry for not updating. I'll update now, or try to.<br /><br />My laptop had disappointed me yet again and so I wasn't able to save what I was working on (layout for my site) and I was pissed. I cried a little, slapped myself softly yet dramatically on the face, then I decided to delete everything: my folder, my resources, my codes, my everything. Le sigh. So yeah, just had to let you guys know that, I'm redoing the <i>recommended fanfics</i> and <i>writing</i>&nbsp;pages all over again. And some of the tutorials I saved.<br /><br />I kind of regret it, but at the same time I feel great. It's like a reset button. If only life had a reset button...<br /><br />Anyway... you might wonder why this wasn't posted on my blog; well, this was on the very top on my account so I just typed whatever. I'm still regretting it.<br /><br />Can anyone tell me where I can watch english subbed videos of Wonder Girls? Appearances from 2011, of course, preferably the Strong Heart episodes.<br /><br />Gah.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-4964141670495706405?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-24422432053427376652011-11-28T17:49:00.000-08:002011-11-28T17:49:26.125-08:00GUYS. ENJOY THE LAYOUT WHILE YOU STILL CAN. BECAUSE ONCE I MOVE THE SITE TO MY DOMAIN, THE LAYOUT WILL CHANGE. I KNOW, I LOVED THIS LAYOUT TOO! AND I'VE DECIDED THAT I WON'T UPDATE UNTIL I SWITCH LINKS. SORRY. AGAIN. Because I'm busy with school projects, and I'm finishing the pending pages on the site. Yes, we offer fanfic recommendations, writing tips and a ranting section for authors as well (I'm working on it right now!

Figure it out for yourselves.&nbsp;Insert evil laugh here. It concerns the site and stuffs. It's not completely, uh, able to do what it's supposed to do. I mean, if you're just that smart you'll find a way how to reverse it. And no, I'm not talking about the missing navigation below the header. Yes, I got rid of it, but that's not the thing I was talking about. Enjoy.<br /><br />I might re-do the graphic tutorials on our AFF graphic thread. I just might.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-576865992630300153?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-65653361858963399212011-11-24T15:50:00.000-08:002011-11-24T15:50:50.308-08:00<img src="http://i1238.photobucket.com/albums/ff481/FVCKNEE/goodies/WGICON1.gif" style="float: left; margin: 0.5em;" />I made that Be My Baby icon. I was supposed to include that on the goodies pack I'm working on but I totally abandoned it. Hehe, I also made a Sohee signature, which I shall post at the end of this update. Sorry if I haven't updated in a short while. I'm just waiting for my domain to be up, then I shall continue updating. The site's link will also change but I'll keep it hosted by blogger, just because blogger is still cool like that. So yeah, affiliates, I'll notify you when to change our links, kay? I'll answer some Formspring questions now.<br /><br /><br /><i>Can you do a coloring tutorial?</i><br />Yes, but it will take a while. I'm a bit busy and I'm not really good at coloring. I solemnly swear I will do my best to finish one as soon as possible.<br /><br /><i>Hiii. :) May you please make a tutorial for a cute/happy poster. I really don't know how to make one.</i><br />Same thing as above, I'll try to finish one asap.<br /><br /><i>How did you make your layout? I really want to make my own using HTML but I don't know how.</i><br />It takes great awesometitude to create a layout like mine. JK. Yes, I'll post a series of tutorials on how to do it (because one tutorial is not enough, trust me.)<br /><br /><i>Can you give me a dl of Photoshop? Tnx</i><br />Click here for a free Adobe Photoshop.<br /><br /><i>HI I downloaded somebodies Layout and I posted it on edit template html, but everytime I try to save it this comes out Your template could not be parsed as it is not well-formed. Please make sure all XML elements are closed properly. XML error message:</i><br />Can you send me the download link or the codes of the layout and I'll check what's wrong.<br /><br /><i>What TV show makes you laugh?</i><br />Friends, Family Guy, How I Met Your Mother, American Dad, Phineas and Ferb, and Pair of Kings. (This was the question of the day at Formsprings; just gave it a shot. Hee.)<br /><br />If you check the formspring, these questions weren't answered, yet. I'll post the links (of the requested tutorials) on the answers so yeah. And just to make sure, here are the requests I'm supposed to be doing: <u>Dark Poster- Blending (4-5 characters), Gray Picture Coloring Tutorial, How to make Blogger/Web Layouts, Happy Poster</u> and I'm supposed to work on the <b>Recommendations</b> and <b>Writing</b> pages. <strike>I have all the time in the world.</strike><br /><br />Enjoy the site while you still can. I'll be adding epic codes soon that will limit the activities in the site do on the site. I'll make a post about it (and explain with more details) once I've actually done it.

We all love Chazzie and we should learn from her. Show your support to Awesome Noobs and send in your submissions now! It's really simple and easy, honestly. Follow the instructions below, <strike>lather rinse</strike> repeat, and you might get yourself listed as a contributor! (You'll be properly credited and you can have your link listed on the credits if you want to.)<br /><br /><b>Tutorials:</b> We accept videos tutorials! Simply send us the video's link (on youtube/facebook/etc.) I am in desperate need of GIMP tutorials, actually, since I'm not good at it and I have people asking me.<br /><br /><b>Resources:</b> We accept pngs, psds, ps actions, textures, patterns, brushes, scans and (favorite) fonts! &nbsp;Send us the download link (hosted by deviantart/mediafire/box/etc) and your portfolio's link- if you have one. I'll really appreciate it.<br /><br /><b>Goodies/Freebies:</b> We accept icons, forum sets, banners, signatures, web/blogger layouts, wallpapers, twitter backgrounds and headers! Same rules apply: send us the link(s) and your portfolio's link.<br /><br /><b>Fanfic Recs.:</b> Recommend your favorite fanfics and get listed! It's easy and simple. Recommend your favorite fanfics (or fanfics of your own), if I like it then it will be added to our recommendations. Get four (4) of your fanfic recs. added to our list and you'll get yourself listed as a contributor of the site!<br /><br /><b>Writing Tips:</b> Advise your fellow writers with some fresh ideas on how to deal with writer's block or how to simply write a rom-com. Any kinds of writing tips- as long as they're unbiased- are acceptable!<br /><br /><b>Authors' Section:</b> Want to vend? Having problems with your stories? Do you want to rant? You can send in your rants or opinions (as long as they're fanfic-related) to us. We'll tag it as an anonymous submission if you want to; I mean, nobody has to know it was you, right?<br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Submit your contribution(s) <a href="http://www.emailmeform.com/builder/form/So7PK3hjlGd5nf3tRO6E2e5">here.</a>&nbsp;</span><br /><br />If you want to be listed as a contributor and have your own tag, you must submit <u>three (3) writing tips/resources/goodies/tutorials</u> or <u>four (4) of your fanfic recommendations have made it to our list.</u> Like what I've said earlier, you'll be properly credited, I'm working on a new way to put credits on your submissions. I will not claim them as my creations, no, that's just wrong and stupid. We are also accepting submissions featuring other celebrities, not just Kpop-related. So what are you waiting for, contribute now!<br /><br />Important! Please read: I'm working on the recommendations and writing (tips and authors' section) pages. You can submit posts even if they're still under construction.&nbsp;Or if you're not the contributing type, then why not request for a tutorial/resource/goodie/tip? Leave it on our formspring or simply message me at <a href="mailto:newbiegirl123@hotmail.com">newbiegirl123@hotmail.com</a><br /><br />And I'm working on my GIMP Misadventures. Anyone interested on joining me in my quest to <strike>make the world a better place</strike> learn how to use the program?<br /><br />PS: I'm going to be a host soon. Just waiting for the confirmation and stuffs. Yey. I'll talk about it on my blog soon.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-7857878785142275947?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-12770364131100453382011-11-19T12:03:00.000-08:002011-11-19T12:05:14.072-08:00I'm guessing you meant page breaks.<br /><br /><u>STEP ONE:</u> Okay, so first you log in to your blogger account.

(Or if you can't find it, you could always just save it to your own folder and install it from there.)<br /><br />03. Go to <b>Control Panel</b> and click <b>Appearance and Personalization.</b><br /><br />04. Click <b>Fonts</b> (Install or remove fonts) then a new window will pop up.<br /><br />05. On the top left, choose <b>File</b> then <b>Install New Font.</b> Another small window would appear. In that small window, on the bottom left, locate the folder where you saved the font. If you didn't have to extract it when you downloaded it- the file should have been .ttf, (TrueType) or .otf (OpenType)- it must be in the <u>Downloads folder</u> then (usually located at Owners).<br /><br />Now if you still can't understand that, I posted a similar tutorial- only with screen caps- on my tumblr.

Ye to the hey! I've yet to do the actual editing of the pages, sorry, so you might find some of the pages empty or unmodified. I'm trying my best to update everything. I'll probably get to planning Exquisite's comeback once I'm done updating this site. I do encourage everyone to contribute to the site. A big thanks to Chazzie for contributing lots, she sent in more than me, keke. I actually have new textures waiting, as well as PSDs, fonts, PS Actions and favorite fonts, I'm just still organizing them so please bear with me for a little while. I will get try to have them up soon. Also, the freebies section is still under construction. I'm still deciding whether to post it by tags or something. But yeah. I know I'm babbling. I don't care. Oh, and I'm deciding where I should add blogger layouts too as freebies? Hhm... Enjoy your visit at the site!<br /><br />[edit]<br />I'm cleaning my folders and downloading free graphic editing programs so I can make tutorials for those who can't afford Adobe Photoshop. So far, I've downloaded <a href="http://www.gimp.org/">GIMP</a> and <a href="http://www.photofiltre-studio.com/">Photofiltre</a>. If you're using other programs, let me know. I've heard of <u>Paint.Net</u> and <u>PhotoImpact</u>, I'll try to download/purchase them as soon as I can.<br />[/edit]<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-5436447921876257480?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-20383947776363209182011-11-12T12:40:00.000-08:002011-11-20T16:37:22.129-08:00<h3>icons/avatars (packs)</h3><a href="http://awesome-noobs.blogspot.com/2011/08/ten-base-iu-icons-100x100.html">▌IU: Random (iamaninjadude.)</a><br /><a href="http://awesome-noobs.blogspot.com/2011/08/shinees-replay-icons-jap-ver.html">▌SHINee: Replay Japanese Ver.

I don't want to include them in this silly (yet fun, I guess) chain game.<br /><br /><b>1. Who’s your favourite singer (not only k-pop singer) and why?</b><br />Tom Felton and Justin Bieber. Tom's voice alone is music to my ears, you can really sense his passion and love for what he's doing. As for the latter, his fandom can be really irritating most of the time but his songs are catchy and lovely. In K-pop, SHINee's Onew and Jonghyun, Jay Park, Wonder Girls' Sunye and Yeeun, IU, the whole JYJ trio, U-Kiss' Soohyun, Brown Eyed Girls, 2AM and Big Bang's Taeyang, because they are naturally talented and the charm they have are different compare to the rest. I've yet to purchase Victor Kim's EP (idk if it was released already) so I don't know if I should include him on my favorite singers.<br /><br /><b>2. Other than speaking English, what other languages can you speak?</b><br />Tagalog, and I'm currently (still) learning French.<br /><br /><b>3. Why are you a fan of your male bias?</b><br />K-pop? This had been answered in a previous tag. Tom Felton, it will take me the whole day to come up of a list why I am a huge fan of him.<br /><br /><b>4. What’s your dream job when you grow up?</b><br />Again, already answered.<br /><br /><b>5. Can you describe how you react when you see a k-pop star on the streets?</b><br />I'll <strike>surely</strike> probably ask them to take a picture with me, and set it as my display picture in Tumblr/Facebook. Good enough?<br /><br /><b>6. Where will you be after 10 years? (A specific country)</b><br />London, most likely.<br /><br /><b>7. Give a picture (macro, gif, photo) of how you’re feeling now.</b><br /><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lp5pwytDWr1qipblq.gif" /><br /><br /><b>8. What’s the weirdest thing your friends did for you?</b><br />It's weird and completely annoying at the same time; when they sing out Selena Gomez songs directly on my ear while I'm busy reading or talking to someone. Since they neither can sing Korean songs nor care about Tom Felton, they attack my third bias, Bieber, by singing songs sang by his dearest girlfriend. As if I care- like seriously.<br /><br /><b>9. What is the thing you detest the most and what will you do if it did something to you?</b><br />Thing? Well if it's an inanimate object then it won't have the capability to do something to me now won't it?<br /><br /><b>10. List a word that comes to your mind when you hear, babo, clumsy and cute.</b><br />SHINee's Onew.<br /><br /><b>11. What song comes to your mind when you hear this word: cute?</b><br />Marshmallow by IU.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-8174841174351836049?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-49003137810029570332011-11-05T09:32:00.000-07:002011-11-18T16:51:12.554-08:00<blockquote><div style="text-align: center;">Click the image to download.

You can find my answer there.<br /><br />3.Who is your female bias and what do you like about her?<br />I don't really have a bias, but my top two favorites are IU and Wonder Girl's Sunye. I like them because they're artists who don't have to try too hard and are naturally talented. They're gorgeous beyond description and their personalities are very lovable.<br /><br />4.What Kpop song that you know all the lyrics?<br />Believe it or not, and I'm like really honest and all epic here, I can sing and rap Big Bang's Haru Haru without looking at the romanized lyrics.<br /><br />5. What do you think about going to school?<br />I love school, but I hate having to wake up early and doing all the school works.<br /><br />6. Post a GIF in here.<br /><img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lu476rxWmO1qfi49xo1_250.gif" /><br /><br />7.Ice cream,Cookie or brownie,if you had to pick which one would you like? and why?.<br />Brownie, because I love brownies.<br /><br />8.Do you like a quite place or a noisy place?<br />It's quiet, and who loves staying at loud places?<br /><br />9.Do you play any instrument?<br />Yes.<br /><br />10.What is your favorite letter and why?<br />R, because it's the first letter of my name, Ranee, and because it's the first letter of my favorite color, which is red.<br /><br />11.Think about the word 'LOVE'. What type of thoughts come into your brain?<br />Confusing thoughts.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-2992746755499313503?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-25726616276974606442011-11-01T18:51:00.000-07:002011-11-01T19:01:55.329-07:00I was planning to discontinue the chain and just simply ignore the responsibility of coming up of eleven new questions and tag more people... I don't even know why I even did the questions in the first place.<br /><br /><blockquote>Rules:<br />1. You must post these rules.<br />2. Each person must post 11 things about themselves in their journal.<br />3. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post, and create eleven new questions for the people you tag to answer.<br />4. You have to choose 11 people to tag and link them on the post<br />5. Go to their page and tell them you have tagged him/her.<br />6. No tag backs.<br />7. No stuff in the tagging section about “you are tagged if you are reading this”. You legitimately (AKA, really, truly, with all honesty)have to tag 11 people.</blockquote>Questions for you, beautiful people:<br /><br />1. Who is your favorite teletubby and why?<br />2. Define what a crappy story/fanfic is, in your most honest opinion. (You cannot state a specific story.)<br />3. Can you bend backwards until your feet could touch your forehead?<br />4. Are you right-handed or left-handed?<br />5. What is your ultimate lifetime goal?<br />6. Other than English, what other language(s) are you capable of?<br />7. List the first name/word that comes to mind when you hear: hero, pink, idiot, awesome and flirtatious.<br />8. What's the weirdest story/fiction/book you've ever read?<br />9. You meet a genie and he grants you three wishes. He cannot interfere with true love and you cannot wish for more wishes. What would be your three wishes and why?<br />10. What will you be doing and where will you be, five years from now?<br />11. Provide a picture (or a GIF) that could explain what you're feeling at this current time.<br /><br />Tagging: <a href="http://star-brightdesigns.co.nr/">SBD</a>, <a href="http://llovex3-her.blogspot.com/">Young Ji</a>, <a href="http://elegant-bliss.blogspot.com/">Elegant Bliss</a>, <a href="http://love-paths.webs.com/">Taekoyaki</a>, <a href="http://purplewaterlilly.blogspot.com/">Randomism</a>, <a href="http://dreality.violinstar.net/">Dreality</a>, <a href="http://www.doodlecookiesm.blogspot.com/">FrenSha</a>, <a href="http://ver-sah-tyle.blogspot.com/">VST</a>, <a href="http://fortissimo.empireumma.net/">Fortissimo</a>, <a href="http://posterrequest100.webs.com/">Posterrequest100</a>&nbsp;and <a href="http://magicalmists.blogspot.com/">Magical Mists</a>.<br />Note to the beautiful people I've tagged: I would love to be informed once you've unfortunately answered my pathetic questions. Leave a tag on the tagboard when you finish.<br /><br /><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Tagged by Yvonnie.</span></b><br /><b>1. How would you describe 'beauty'? Does it exist?</b><br />Beauty is me. I obviously exist.<br /><b>2. Name three things that you think will make people feel royalty, and answer why?</b><br />People would believe they are of royalty when they are actual aristocrats, or they belong to elite families. I honestly think I belong to the royal family if I had the glitter and the crown and everything- and my own throne. I would want to have power, fame and wealth as well.<br /><b>3. What's your dream job? Why?</b><br />Reality-wise, I would want to be a graphic designer, computer technician of some sort. I've always wanted to become a pilot (I want to fly) but that seems impossible just thinking about it. A teacher and a brain surgeon are my other options.<br /><b>4. Why did you like Kpop?</b><br />Because it is addictive.<br /><b>5. Who's your ultimate bias in Kpop industry? Why?</b><br />SHINee's Onew, just because he has this lovable charms that only him is capable of doing. He's simply&nbsp;irresistible; his god-like features and mesmerizing voice never fail to make me swoon and sweep me off my feet.<br /><b>6. What do you think is special about your personality? Describe it.</b><br />Nothing is special about my personality, honestly speaking. I'm just your average girly girl- shy to strangers, crazy in front of friends- who has girly girl dreams, although from time to time I seem to excel from the rest whenever I do something ridiculously brilliant... I guess I'm just as awesome as the rest, but I'm a thousand percent sure I'm different.<br /><b>7. Do you think your pretty or ugly? Why?</b><br />It's you're, and I most certainly think I am the fairest of them all. My reason is, well, leveling up to Snow White and Belle, I guess it is legit enough to make any statements against mine invalid.<br /><b>8. Which site do you spazz on the most?</b><br />- This site of course, and my very own blog (which I will shamelessly advertise here:&nbsp;<a href="http://fvckyeahneenja.blogspot.com/">BADABOOM!</a>)<br /><b>9. What your ideal type?</b><br />- In men?&nbsp;He should be attractive, not too good looking though; it would be unfair if I give birth to a gorgeous being and enter her to beauty contests, it will be an automatic win for my offspring. He should also have a good sense of humor, crack me to laughter that I can be serious when I say LMAO. He should be able to understand me well, childish yet respectful and polite towards my parents. It wouldn't hurt if he's romantic and sweet too.<br /><b>10. What is your most favourite country? Why?</b><br />Japan. Who doesn't like Japan?<br /><b>11. Would you prefer to be a male or female? Why?</b><br />Honestly, male, but that doesn't mean I am discontented with my current gender. I just find it cool how men could easily crack people to laughter using body language or sly words. Men are pretty cool and interesting with them not needing to try too hard to be. They have more obvious swag than girls, which I definitely envy.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-2572661627697460644?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-18975312374163060582011-10-31T17:35:00.000-07:002011-10-31T17:35:23.938-07:00<img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lt1e3meGfB1r1aor6.png" style="float: left; margin: 0.5em;" />Because I'm such a nice person, and because I'm simply awesome, I shall post GIMP tutorials as well. Just a heads up though; I do not use GIMP and there's probably other people out there that are more pro than me when it comes to using GIMP. I'll probably post something like a <i>My GIMP Adventures</i> instead of actual tutorials. So yeah, just dropped by to inform such generous announcement from yours truly.

I thought I got over it, but I couldn't, all thanks to these tumblogs that I've paid visits to the past couple of days. Now my obsession is back- my <i>Dramione</i> obsession. If <u>Harry Potter</u> doesn't ring a bell to you (you must be insane then, jk... rowling XD) then you should probably skip this post. I'm in love with the series, and praise J.K. Rowling with all my heart, especially since she gave birth to the idea of <i>Dramione.</i> You might be wondering what the fucking hell am I doing and thinking, posting it here. I have a pretty damn good reason... wait for it.<br /><br />You should be worried, because now that I'm all over <i>Dramione</i> again, I'll care less for this site. I'm evil aren't I? I do apologize. I'll probably end up posting tutorials featuring HP characters too. (I never said anything about the site being only dedicated to K-pop, I might remind you.)<br /><br />For the time being, I've put everything to a halt. I told you I'll never feel obligated to update this site, but I would never give it up and shut it down like those failed sites people opened and closed months after. <strike>They dare call themselves webmasters?</strike> See, I'm speaking unlike a K-pop fan. You should be really worried (really worried if you rely on this site for tutorials and such, but I'm not expecting, since this site is practically empty).<br /><br />If you are a fan of <i>Dramione,</i> I command you to share your favorite <i>Dramione</i> fanfics. Mine shall be: <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1530065/">Once Upon A Thyme</a>, <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2397333/1/Blindsided">Blindsided</a>, and more, actually, I think all <i>Dramione</i> fanfics are brilliant! These two are just the links that I've perfectly remembered (because I read them in school, through my Ipod, while in class... I solemnly swear I'm up to no good).<br /><br />Don't worry, I am still mentally engaged to Onew. And I'm surrounded by K-pop addicts, I honestly think I wouldn't just forget K-pop as easy as others might think.<br /><br />Until then, I'll try to update if I can, or if I run out of <i>Dramione</i> to enjoy.<br /><br />Credits to&nbsp;<a href="http://dramioneicons.livejournal.com/">http://dramioneicons.livejournal.com/</a>&nbsp;for the icon.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-6239736991052746551?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-86410437043770013152011-10-18T18:12:00.000-07:002011-10-18T18:12:33.584-07:00<img src="http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c187/yunnasu/Icons/1976-2152/2073.gif" style="float: left; margin: 0.5em;" /><i> I don't know which side to buy.</i> I am hungry, and I just dropped by to say that we have a new layout and I've updated the affiliates. Uh. I actually thought of a bunch of new ideas for the site. Because Exquisite is on a halt right now, I think I do have time to update AN. Hhm. I can't promise anything. But yeah, I still need to fix a the color codes for the tutorials. I HAVE A LOT OF STUFFS PLANNED FOR THE SITE, DON'T WORRY. <b>I'm working on the tutorials, and for the reviews (check our aff threads) and the writing tips and all those stuffs. I will post them once I find the time.</b><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-8641043704377001315?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-800752149184088992011-10-07T22:06:00.000-07:002011-10-07T22:06:28.024-07:00<img src="http://i34.tinypic.com/2a4zl1l.png" style="float: left; margin: 0.5em;" /> I am really serious this time. This will be the last procrastination post. I will work on the site's new layout, and update new tutorials, posts and goodies! I'll reply to to the affiliation requests once I'm done with the layout. Haha, I'm really sorry for not really updating. I'm busy with school and stuffs, and yes I've been procrastinating. As for Exquisite, we'll be back next year, or maybe in December. I don't know, but we will be back. Anyway, yeah, the next post in here will be a post about the new layout. I'll make that possible. YEYEYE.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-80075214918408899?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-16294403375731110652011-09-30T18:01:00.000-07:002011-09-30T18:02:38.429-07:00<img src="http://i870.photobucket.com/albums/ab263/ruruamitama/e-12.png" style="float: left; margin: 0.5em;" />I am far behind with the requested tutorials, I'm sorry. I've mastered the arts of procrastination that I'm procrastinating procrastination itself. Anyway, I have two new tumblogs: <a href="http://ninja-edits.tumblr.com/">ninja-edits</a> and <a href="http://ninja-resources.tumblr.com/">ninja-resources</a>. Visit (and follow) if you have time. And again, I cannot provide you guys download links of Adobe Photoshop. I got mine legally and I cannot redistribute them. Sorry. You can download CS5 Extended, free trial, on their site. I recommend you try that or look for someone who could provide one for you. I will try to update faster; I won't do it but I'll try.<br /><br />(Icon credits to ShineeGraphics)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-1629440337573111065?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-88168661037126585462011-09-30T17:32:00.001-07:002011-09-30T17:32:47.235-07:00<p class="formspringmeAnswer">I have Adobe PS CS3, CS4 and CS5, but I only use CS3.</p><p class="formspringmeFooter"> <a href="http://www.formspring.me/askthenoob?utm_medium=social&utm_source=blogger&utm_campaign=shareanswer">a noob asks, a noob answers.</a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-8816866103712658546?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-61845666816850467162011-09-30T17:31:00.003-07:002011-09-30T17:31:25.913-07:00<p class="formspringmeAnswer">Once I stop procrastinating, I'll make one pronto ^-^</p><p class="formspringmeFooter"> <a href="http://www.formspring.me/askthenoob?utm_medium=social&utm_source=blogger&utm_campaign=shareanswer">a noob asks, a noob answers.</a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-6184566681685046716?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-53665044123973129792011-09-30T17:31:00.001-07:002011-09-30T17:31:06.196-07:00<p class="formspringmeAnswer">You can download a free trial on their website. <a href="http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="nofollow">http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop</a> (CS5 Extended)</p><p class="formspringmeFooter"> <a href="http://www.formspring.me/askthenoob?utm_medium=social&utm_source=blogger&utm_campaign=shareanswer">a noob asks, a noob answers.</a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-5366504412397312979?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-89548849094642907022011-09-30T17:27:00.001-07:002011-09-30T17:27:24.192-07:00<p class="formspringmeAnswer">I do but I suck at it.

I was waiting for Christine to reply to the subdomain &nbsp;application I sent her for <a href="http://e-xquisite.co.nr/">Exquisite</a>, and I thought she ignored it so I was really pissed (I waited for two weeks.) Then I received her reply today and I was like OHYEAH and wasn't pissed anymore. When I'm annoyed, I don't update. SO YEAH. But now I feel glad, I updated two submissions (courtesy of <i>joanne200969</i> and <i>Chazzie</i>) and I'll try to update a couple of freebies and resources from me. For the favorite fonts section, they can be made by another person as long as you don't claim it as yours. Maybe I'll have samples up next time. And the tags aren't updated.<br /><br />Icon credits to xloliconsx and kaanivaru.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-3991213691575359084?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-32392293132189930592011-09-29T15:36:00.000-07:002011-11-18T16:55:57.581-08:00<blockquote>Click the image to download.

I'm a terrible liar. I've mastered the art of chopsticks and procrastination- but not lying. I knew I said I'm going to update last night.&nbsp;I was going to, after I showered, but Angelo dropped by (and I haven't seen him in a long time) and we ended up spending the night together <strike>playing kid games&nbsp;(w/c you're terrible at, Angelo, fyi)</strike> in the park. I was so exhausted I fell asleep and didn't get to post anything. I'm sorry. I did get Lisa unnie to post <i>Chapter 3</i> on our <a href="http://www.asianfanfics.com/story/view/77518/">AFF Graphic Thread</a>.<br /><br />I have to do laundry today, then I have a two-page report about transnationals and a Math workbook to finish before Monday. School is my first priority, second would be food and having fun. My online duties would be third (or fourth, I'm also obligated to take care of my hamsters, BitchStewie and Marvolo.) I will try to update once I'm done everything (w/c might be after 5-6 hours.)<br /><br />I'm still thinking whether I'll change the layout too, so I could fix the navigation. Or maybe you guys don't want to bid farewell just yet to adorable Chihoon oppar? The next layout features Emma Watson and her gorgeous brother Alex, just saying.<br /><br />Kekeke.

Soohyun-sshi is just too hot. <br /><br />This is actually the first time I've listened to U-kiss and had interest on <s>them</s> Soohyun. Not that I disliked them before, I just didn't really pay attention to other boy groups before other than the ones I was really familiar with like DBSK, SHINee, Big Bang, 2PM and Super Junior. Then I see Neverland on Youtube's homepage, and I saw a couple of tumblr posts about how addicting the song is, so I thought, why not?<br /><br />Then I fell for the spell. Just by checking the time, I've been listening to their song in youtube repeat for three hours now. I'm supposed to be sleeping by now but then I didn't feel like sleeping anymore. This afternoon though, I passed out because I was so tired from school. But now <s>U-Kiss</s> Soohyun is giving me the energy and now I can't fall asleep!<br /><br />I had to ask people who is the hot dude around <u>1:05</u>, they told me the ridiculously handsome being's name is Shin Soohyun, and I knew it was love at first sight. Kekekekekeke! I've been engaged to Onew (according to my facebook, apparently) for almost three years, and it only took <s>U-kiss</s> Soohyun 3 minutes to awe me with his cool voice and dance moves... to remove my relationship with Onew dear. It was definitely love at first sight. <i>I still love you Onew.</i><br /><br />Anyway, I was going to post this on my personal blog but then I felt like posting it here instead. Oh, and I had to say that there's a requested section right over there on the right side. I am actually working on the colouring tutorial and the inspiration tips, but <s>U-kiss</s> Soohyun is distracting me, so sorry. Blame <s>U-kiss</s> Soohyun.<br /><br />Okay I suddenly felt sleepy when the song stopped playing. Wait... -song continues playing- nevermind.<br /><br />My throat hurts for singing along for three hours. I don't think I'll be able to talk tomorrow.<br /><br /><b>LET'S GO TO NEVERLAND EVERYBODY!</b> My weekend lasts until Monday so <i>let's party on!</i><br /><br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-7090271327543341166?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-76955409034846606302011-09-01T16:37:00.001-07:002011-09-01T16:37:53.135-07:00<p class="formspringmeAnswer">I actually have CS5 too, but I don't see a reason why I should abandon CS3.

Of course the ending is very predictable, but I want to read a well-thought out plot with extensive details in relation to the illness. I want to feel the sadness when the character has to toil through treatments and changes in his/her life. I don’t want to just read about the romance, which is the case for most stories. The illness just falls back as a sub-plot.</span></span></div><div class="yiv440600507MsoNoSpacing" style="display: block; line-height: normal; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="yiv440600507MsoNoSpacing" style="display: block; line-height: normal; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;">Most one that does address the illness in some way are one-shots (and they tend to be just around the time of death – which questions the impeccable timing that the lovers are in the same place).

Respect is highly valued, especially in families. Religion is just as diverse (Shisus isn’t the only one to exist).

Psh… in todays’ world, unless you are from one of the big 3, your band is going to struggle like never before. Besides, these apply stories never even get off of the ground. No point in trying to make a new one if you aren’t going to stick to it as soon as you’ve posted the forewords.

Often times, it’s a depressed period with a push to exceed your limits. Idols have admitted of crying right after practice and sleepless nights.

You are working with (if you’re lucky) four-five hours of sleep each night. There are fans that stalk their every move and chase them to the ends of the earth, there’s hardly any privacy when they are out in public.

I do. I read Freakonmics last year for my class and I wondered why I never picked it up in the past. They have quite the section pertaining to that of a hierarchy of a gang. Gangs run underground dealing: drugs, weapons, cars, human trafficking, etc. It’s dirty shit that makes me want to puke.</span></span></div><div class="yiv440600507MsoNoSpacing" style="display: block; line-height: normal; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="yiv440600507MsoNoSpacing" style="display: block; line-height: normal; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;">Usually, in order to get into a gang, a crime is required of the sort. Theft, rape, vandalizing, drag racing, etc. Then, there are brands that distinguish them from other gangs- typically a tattoo. Once a gang member is inaugurated, he starts out in the lowest tier of the gang. Yes, there is a hierarchy. The lowest are the ones getting into gun fights, physically receiving the packages of drugs &amp; guns. They’re carrying out the bloodwork – for little to nothing.</span></span></div><div class="yiv440600507MsoNoSpacing" style="display: block; line-height: normal; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="yiv440600507MsoNoSpacing" style="display: block; line-height: normal; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;">As you climb up the ladder, you have more pay, you get more credit, you are the one to give orders, you’re the one with all of the women. Eventually, the lord as top dog will be the one that is doing the housing, taking care of finances, making sure that every gets their fair pay, dealing transactions/deals, handling profits, and monitoring shipments. In this particular gang in Freakonomics, the lord made millions every year while the rogue lower ranks (foot soldiers) thrived on less than $3.30 an hour.</span></span></div><div class="yiv440600507MsoNoSpacing" style="display: block; line-height: normal; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="yiv440600507MsoNoSpacing" style="display: block; line-height: normal; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;">It’s a tough life. You can lose your life for the sake of treading into some other gang’s territory. Gangs will kill each other over the smallest and pettiest things. It’s all about pride and territory, who’s the top dog. Gangs will go out of their way to kill a family member or a friend of someone they have a grudge against. They’ll kill anyone who’s remotely involved with that person. You accidentally bump into them in a store? Expect them hounding you for days afterward.</span></span></div><div class="yiv440600507MsoNoSpacing" style="display: block; line-height: normal; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="yiv440600507MsoNoSpacing" style="display: block; line-height: normal; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;">It’s brutally dangerous to live that kind of life. It isn’t how it’s glorified in dramas. It’s used wrongly and if you’re going to properly use it, it’s a lot of research and news prodding. Especially for those that have a “gang” that is more or less like a military terrorist group. Those are more fun to read, but it’s hard to find a good one. Because they can incorporate technology and espionage tactics and a plot that just doesn’t mean that they’re battling over drugs. There’s a lot more careful planning to make sure that it’s correctly depicted – everything from the safe house down to the last gun, as well as sources of money.</span></span></div><div class="yiv440600507MsoNoSpacing" style="display: block; line-height: normal; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="yiv440600507MsoNoSpacing" style="display: block; line-height: normal; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;">Otherwise, people just don’t play it grimy enough in stories.

/></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-30031719340229254912011-08-28T20:48:00.000-07:002011-11-18T16:49:21.648-08:00Here's the first batch of fanfics I recommend. I believe all of them are completed; there would be a note though if they're on-going or on hiatus stories. Each recommended fanfic includes the title, link, author, main characters, &nbsp;rating, genre, summary and the reason why I recommend it. If you wish to recommend other fanfics, feel free to leave a tag on our tagboard.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.winglin.net/fanfic/yunhojaehee/">IRREPLACEABLE</a> by Jung Jaehee (★★★☆☆)<br /><b>Main Characters:</b> DBSK's Yunho, JYJ's Yoochun, Yoon Eunhye and Lee Yeonhee.<br /><b>Rating:</b> General (for everyone) <b>Genre:</b> Romance, Drama.<br /><b>Summary:</b> How should I summarize it without spoiling everything? Hhm... It's a story about Jung Yunho who is trying to forget about Lee Yeonhee, his fiancee. He then meets Yoon Eunhye, who is so much like Yeonhee. He slowly falls for her, but he has competition- introducing Doctor Park Yoochun, who is helplessly in love with Eunhye too.<br />■ It's not your ordinary love story. It's the perfect blend of romance and drama, and maybe a hint of humor. Irreplaceable simply made me shed a tear and think that guys are just like girls. They feel too, and they can be very passionate and serious over something, not just video games and pornography.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.winglin.net/fanfic/flavored_7/">Questionable Fluff</a> by .flavored (★★★★☆)<br /><b>Main Characters:</b> Kim Bum and Kim So Eun.<br /><b>Rating:</b> PG-13 (parental guidance +13) <b>Genre:</b> Romance, Comedy.<br /><b>Summary:</b> It follows the famous saying, "opposite attracts." Kim Bum plays a role of the yummy-looking sadist who meets Kim So Eun, the desperate masochist who only enjoys one thing in the world: pain. Together, they walk us through a weird yet romantic (and hilarious) dating experience.<br />■ I never watched Boys Over Flowers. I learned how to love this amazing couple when I read fanfics about them, and QF being one of my personal favorites. It's funny and entertaining in its own way.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.asianfanfics.com/story/view/69796/">A Day with the Fanfiction Writer</a> by princess_has (★★★★☆)<br /><b>Main Characters:</b> SHINee's Onew and Yui (OC)<br /><b>Rating:</b> PG-13 (parental guidance +13) <b>Genre:</b> Fluff.<br /><b>Summary</b>: It's a fan's fantasy gone real, and simply memorable. SHINee's Onew bores himself in the streets of his mother's hometown until he meets a very interesting fan-fiction writer. Usually, SHINee's fans stereotypes Onew as the member who is inexperienced in the field of... pleasuring, and love making. The leader disproves this stereotype and well... just read it to find out.<br />■ It's probably because of my dedication to SHINee, specifically to their leader Onew, why I really enjoyed reading this one-shot. I marked it as fluff and not romance simply because the attraction between the two main characters lack that romance feel. It's more of a compatibility, the feeling they had wasn't love but comfort. Nonetheless I rated it four out of five because of the easy yet amusing plot.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.asianfanfics.com/story/view/26180/">So... I'm His Boyfriend?</a> by b2utyfulshawol (★★★☆☆)<br /><b>Main Characters:</b> SHINee's Key, SHINee's Taemin and Park Haeyoung (OC)<br /><b>Rating:</b> PG-13 (parental guidance 13+) <b>Genre:</b> Romance, Comedy.<br /><b>Summary:</b> It's a story full of pros and cons of having SHINee's famous omma, Key, as your boyfriend. It exaggerates Key's personality of being a nagger and focuses on the member being the ultimate fashionista in the group, but it also highlights how his 19-year old girlfriend handles him.<br />■ I usually go for shorter stories, but this fanfic was worth the read. Every chapter is extremely funny and the characterization was done oh-so-well.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1810333767537077006-3003171934022925491?l=awesome-noobs.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Unknownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12698916839051250967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1810333767537077006.post-44263548158682885912011-08-28T20:43:00.003-07:002011-11-18T16:47:48.509-08:00WILL UPDATE THIS SOON.

Then a couple friends of mine asked if I could post tutorials&nbsp;<s>because they want to be pro like me.</s>&nbsp;Tee to the freaking hee, but I consider myself as an amateur. With that thought in mind, I've decided to start a site where designers and writers can gather, newbie or pro, and help each other out.<br /><br /><b>Awesome</b>&nbsp;is&nbsp;<i>formidable, amazing,
