1. If I could take something from each of the BigBang members, I’d want to have Tabi’s low/husky voice, GD’s fashion sense, SeungRi’s confidence, Daesung’s singing abilities, and Taeyang’s physique.  :D
2. Aside from 2NE1 and BB, I also like B2ST, SHINee, and MBLAQ.  I haven’t taken a good enough listen to all their material to be considered a fan just yet, but I do enjoy these groups.  :]
3. Even though I love 2NE1 to death, the only one I ever crush on is CL.  Bom and Dara are so goofy together that they just seem like if I knew them IRL, they’d be like the crazy best friends I would always wanna hang with.  And Minji, as sexy and grown as she’s getting now, she’ll still forever be like a little sister figure in my eyes.  She’s so cute and adorable, she’s still the baby of the group to me.  :3
4. Everytime I see Bom eating, it makes me so proud knowing that even beautiful people love to eat.  I feel a lot less guilty about eating when I think of Bommie.
5. Even though I dislike Papa YG trolling us, I know it’s for good reasons.  You can’t rush great music, I understand that.  And I really love the fact that he gives each artist some freedom to do their own thing.  So every time I feel like he’s just trolling us, I’m sure he’s got an excellent reason for setting dates back.  The wait is always worth it, for me.
6. My first tastes of kpop dates back to when I started looking up clips for America’s Best Dance Crew, season one.  There was this one guy who went under the name ‘Gerard’, Idk if that was his real name or not, but it’s what we all called him.  Anyway, dude would upload dance compilations for every episode the very next day.  But to avoid YouTube’s copyright thingy, he’d upload a clip of something else in the first minute or so of the video.  Although I didn’t know who they were at first, he’d upload clips of Taeyang’s performances, live SHINee performances, and even a clip of Teddy working on The Leaders with GD and CL.  I didn’t pay those clips any mind since I was just looking for the dance clips.  But geez, I really should’ve payed attention then.  XD
7. I got into kpop when I saw Taeyang’s MV Where U At about a year or so ago when it was on the YouTube ‘Most Viewed Today’ list.  Back then I was really into YouTube stars.  Now I’m always here, haha.  Anyway.  After being impressed by the MV, I looked up who that was and it turns out this dude is from a band.  That lead me to BigBang.  I found a comment on one of the MVs saying that there’s a female version of these guys called 2NE1.  I looked them up.  The rest is history.  :DD
8. I learn the dances for a lot of Taeyang songs.  Something about Shaun Evaristo’s choreography makes it fun to do.  It’s usually simple moves that nearly anyone can do that look amazing when done right.  Outside of YG, I know the chorus part to Shock by B2ST.  That’s about it.  Haha.
9. I used to play the whole To Anyone CD all the time when it first dropped.  I even played it in my video games, particularly Dead Rising 2.  Now all my siblings think of zombie-killing when they hear any of the songs from that album.  XDD
10. I always feel so proud when I hear my siblings listening to kpop, since they’re not really into it like I am.  My sister really likes Taeyang’s solo stuff as well as BB songs in general.  My younger brother can’t get enough of GD&TOP, so it’s always fun to just sing along with them when they play their music out loud.

To whom this may concern, wherever you are.

1. I want you to know that I’ve only had one gf in my entire life.  Even still, I suffered a real bad blow to my self-esteem as well as my innocence.  Please understand that I will want to take things slow with you.  I want to be sure you’re the real deal.
2. I want you to know that my biggest weakness is that I care too much.  I’ll want to make sure you’re okay at the end of every day.  And if you’re not, I’ll do whatever I can to remedy it.
3. I don’t care what you look like.  I’m never one to fall for a pretty face or physical traits.  I fall for an excellent sense of humor.  I fall for kindness.  I fall for sweet girls.  I fall for caring women.  So I’m convinced that you’re going to come out of nowhere in my life and completely hit me when I least expect it.  You’re not going to be the cheerleader or the class president.  You’ll probably be the shy and quiet girl in class who tutors kids in math after school.  Or maybe you’ll be a loud and constantly smiling person that’ll win me over with your amazing sense of humor and unorthodox thinking.  Idk.  All I know is when I fall for you, it won’t be for your looks.  So don’t worry about that stuff.  :]
4. I’m not popular nor do I wish to be.  So girls will not throw themselves at me.  This means you won’t have to question my loyalty.  I don’t chase girls and they don’t chase me.  If I choose to be with you, I CHOOSE TO BE WITH YOU.  No one else.
5. I’m not after what most guys are after.  I don’t want you for that.  If you ever spend the night with me and we’re together ‘till morning, we’ll be doing other things.  We’ll hit up a nearby beach and walk along the sand like they do in books and movies.  We’ll catch a movie.  Explore the town and take pictures of each other to document our mini-adventures.  I’ll write you a song and perform it for you on the spot.  Reveal facts about ourselves through charades so we’ll know each other better.  I’ll hold you in the early morning hours, then wake you up so we can go to a rooftop of some apartment building to watch the sunrise together.  I’ll probably buy some art supplies to try and capture the moment, although I can’t promise anything amazing.  We’ll buy some ingredients from any convenience stores that are open early, head to my place, make breakfast together.  Or you can get some sleep while I do it with my pathetic chef skills.  Haha.  Idk.  We’ll have a lot to do, I’m sure.  I’m random and weird, just warning you.  :]
6. I’m going to text you something ridiculous to make you smile at random times.  It might be a sappy love message.  It might be a stupid selca of me derping.  Idk.  As long as it makes you smile, I’m cool with looking stupid.
7. I have this unnatural ability to stay warm even in cold temperatures.  So if you’re ever cold and we’re out and away from any blankets or sheets, lmk.  I’ll be glad to be your human Snuggie.
8. I’ll probably be taller than you, unless you’re 6’4”.  Don’t be intimidated, I couldn’t hurt a fly.  Literally.  Cuz those stupid things are really fast and I ain’t no Mr. Miyagi.  That’s another thing.  Don’t ask me to kill a fly for you.  I’ll fail miserably.  XD
   Besides, my size will come in handy when I see anybody messing with you.  :DD
9. I know a lot of guys who don’t pick up their gf’s calls during online CoD and Halo matches.  That won’t be me.  I’m not going to choose playing video games over you.  I love me some video games, but the war on zombies to save the world can take a backseat to you.  You’ll probably be far more complex than any puzzle/adventure/RPG I’ve ever played in my life, so I may as well dedicate the rest of my life to figuring you out.  :3
10. If we’ve been dating for a while and if it ever gets to the point that I should propose to you, I’m going to do it big.  Music will be involved.  It’ll be done in public.  Idk how big I’ll go, but it’ll be huge.  You may be embarrassed.

1. When I hear something metronome-like or anything that makes noise at a certain tempo like a car alarm or water dripping, I immediately will beatbox to it like an idiot.  XD
2. When someone starts singing something, I immediately jump in and totally mess it up with my singing.  OTL
   
3. I always capitalize stuff and double-check my spelling.  Not just on here, but even in text messages I’ll spell things out completely and check my grammar and all that.
4. Anytime someone has hugged me and said I was more like a giant stuffed bear instead of the monstrous giant I always believed myself to be, I feel all warm and fuzzy inside.  :3
5. Anytime I smell cigarette smoke I immediately pull the front of my shirt over my mouth and nose like a ninja.
6. If I can’t identify the members of a kpop group, chances are I probably wont’ be a big fan of them.  I’ll still like them, but I’ll just not be in the fandom.  :]
7. I’ve lived in Hawaii all my life.  Surrounded by water.  AND I CAN’T SWIM.
8. I’m a big fan of ABDC.  I can recall just about every performance and crew.  My absolute favorite crew has to be Quest Crew, because they were all artists of some kind, they were fun, goofy, and because their stunts were creative IMO.
9. I get disgusted when I’m near a group of guys and I overhear them objectifying girls.  Again, my stomach gets that weird feeling, so I just up and leave.
10. I used to be really interested in being an amateur filmmaker, so I started video-documenting whenever/wherever I had my video camera on me.

1. My shoe size always matched my age [as far as I remembered] right up until I turned 14.  Then it just stayed there.  XD
2. If I’m already in bed and I forgot to turn off the light, I’ll throw everything at the switch ‘till it turns off.  I’m lazy, I know.
3. I suck at keeping track of time.  I’ll think it’s a Sunday when it’s really a Friday or something.
4. I have a thing for cutting the sleeves from hoodies and wearing them.  The arms are usually never long enough for me and it’s not long enough for a guy over 6’ to wear without his undies showing, so I just cut the sleeves off and wear it with a longer undershirt.  XD
5. I have a drinking problem.  Not like, alcohol or anything.  I’m too much of a wuss for that.  XD
   I drink so much water everyday.  I keep three 1.5 liter bottles at home and I drain/refill them all at least once before the end of the day.  I drink for no reason at all, even if I’m full.  XDD
6. I’m a real worrywart.  I worry about all kinds of things.  But just for other peoples’ sake.  If it’s about me, I don’t really care too much.
7. I don’t learn how to work stuff by reading instruction manuals.  Although it’d probably be faster.  I actually just toy with something until I figure it out.
8. I can type at roughly 70wpm.  While it’s not that fast, it’s much better than when I used to “hunt-and-peck”.  :]
9. Back when I was a junior in high school, my English teacher was the absolute meanest and strictest on campus.  I wasn’t doing too well in her class, but I remember that she came up to me once while handing out some national test scores or whatever and she told me that she hadn’t seen scores that high, even among her A-students.  And that my writing was so impressive, she personally recommended me to the school paper.  I declined of course, being the lazy idiot I was.  Haha.  And the lady in charge of the school paper mentioned that although they get recommendations from teachers often, getting one from that teacher means a lot.  It means she sees a lot of potential in your writing skills.  I thought they were all just messing with me up until I started writing, well, lyrics.  I wish I saw it sooner.  Anyway, the kicker here is that she failed me in her class, but still told me I had a lot of potential.  TALK ABOUT MIXED SIGNALS RIGHT?  XDD
10. In that same class, I was in a group with a friend and one of my best friends doing a project where we had to read a book and then enact a skit or something for it.  Being the procrastinators we were, we ended up BS-ing the whole thing at the end with me directing and narrating.  WE GOT THE SECOND HIGHEST SCORE IN CLASS.  Right behind the A-students.  It was such a wonderful moment in the world of procrastination and BS.  XDD

1. I come off as intimidating to people that don’t know me.  I used to hang out with a small group of friends including this one girl that was apparently attractive [which I heard, I wouldn’t have known at the time being the little boy I really am OTL] and she told me about this one guy that was totally into her.  I was like AWWW and she was said that it was funny cuz since I hung out with her and the others so often that the guy wouldn’t approach her cuz I [being a foot or so taller and much bigger than him] was always nearby.  He thought I was gonna pummel him for asking her out or something.  I choked on the lunch I was eating cuz I really wouldn’t hit the guy for any reason at all.  Well, not unless dude was being violent with her or something, then I’d probably just get him into submission.  I really don’t hit people.  >___<
   But dude was cool though, and he eventually asked her out.  I think.  XD
2. I’m a procrastinator.  Like, a PROcrastinator.  I’ll leave an essay assigned weeks ago undone until about twenty minutes before class.  I’d get a C at least.  :D
3. I enjoy watching rap battles like Grind Time, KOTD, etc.
4. I don’t drink coffee.  I’m not too sure why.
5. I hate hearing people say stuff like, “Why is she with him?” or “He could do better than her” when they don’t know the couple at all.  Okay fine, maybe they could find another person more physically attractive.  But maybe he makes her laugh like no other guy can.  Maybe she’s the only girl he’s dated that actually respects his point-of-views.  Maybe he’s faithful and treats her like the goddess she deserves to be.  Maybe her intelligence impresses him way more than any supermodel’s body could.  Stop judging, it makes me sick.  Literally though.  I get a kind of queasy feeling when people judge like that.  D:
6. I’ve never been to a wedding.  AND I NEVER WILL LOLOLOL FOREVER ALONE.
7. All four of my best friends and myself have just about nothing in common.  But when we hang out we’re all like brothers.  XD
8. I’m not really into sports.  I don’t watch the games, and I really have no clue how to play a lot of ‘em.  Haha.  Even my sister watches more than I do.  OTL
9. I love running around in the rain.  It started getting awkward when I turned about 14.  XD
10. I absolutely love lightning and thunder.  I’ll sit by a window to watch the light dance across the sky and hear the thunder rumbling.

1. I wanna meet CL.
2. I love CL.
3. I really wanna meet CL.
4. I think CL is really amazing on so many levels.
5. I really really wanna meet CL.
6. I love CL’s voice.
7. I love CL’s eyesmile.
8. I love CL.
9. You don’t understand how much I wanna meet CL.
10. If I ever meet CL it will be the death of me.

1. I caught my older brother looking at adult material online when I was younger and I didn’t know what was happening, so I just cried.  I still dunno why I did that.  Haha.  I don’t cry now of course, but I still freak out and just look elsewhere.
2. I used to be into other online things like GaiaOnline and RuneScape and Newgrounds.  I don’t bother with ‘em these days though.  Haha.  It’s been years.
3. I used to cry all the time as a kid.  I cried when someone teased me, when someone looked at me funny, when someone took something of mine without asking.  It was pretty bad, haha.  I was a total crybaby.  I even cried for every first day of school until about third grade or so cuz I would miss staying home with my mum.  Lame, I know.  XD
4. I have this thing where I love the smell of markers, new books, and art supplies in general.  I got caught smelling markers once [not for a high or anything, I just like the smell] because I had different colored marks on my upper lip.  This was in seventh grade, I think.  Haha.
5. Rice.  I love rice.
6. One of my favorite shows is The Boondocks, which actually sparked my interest in thinking differently and non-conventionally.  The Huey character always made such insightful and controversial statements that were usually true or held some truth to them.  The other characters just thought he was crazy or being disrespectful for disagreeing with them often, but he really did have reasonable statements that made you think.
7. I used to be hooked on video games, but Idk anymore.  Haha.  I’m not a big fan of FPS’s like most of my friends.  I can’t get into games like Halo or CoD or whatever.  They all feel more or less the same to me.  Not to say they’re bad, it’s just not my cup of tea.
8. I apologize frequently, if not excessively.  I’ll say sorry so often because it’s just second nature to believe that everything is my fault.  XD
   Not like, when I hurt someone’s feelings or something.  I say that because I mean it.  But for minor things like I nearly bump into someone, NOT EVEN TOUCHING THEM, I’ll immediately be like, “Oh, sorry!”.  I get weird looks for that kind of thing.  XDD
9. I’ve only got four best friends IRL, and while that might seem like a little, it only goes to show how careful I am with deciding who I trust a lot.  And I trust these four guys with my life.
10. I don’t really keep an eye on my follower count, so it fluctuates without my knowing.  Not that I don’t appreciate the followers, but I’ve never really cared for popularity or anything like that.  If someone unfollows me, it’s their choice.  :]

1. I find inspiration for my lyrics in random places.  I remember taking this long walk at night once to clear my mind and I eventually wrote about walking through city streets in an attempt to clear my mind..in a verse..and it rhymed quite well!  Haha.  It was an old song, so I’ll probably never record it, but still.  Haha.
2. I find my inability to sing to be a good thing.  Because I can’t sing, I rap instead.  So where I should be singing a few words in a verse or a hook, I instead re-write the entire thing to fit my rapping style.  I see it as a chance to exercise my lyrical abilities.
3. When I started taking things seriously in music, everything I wrote was so cheesy and very lame.  Haha.  But it helped out because that marked a point in time where I had raw passion but no direction.  In a year’s time, I’ve learned a lot about the rap game and have incorporated different things to make my songs better like punchlines and flow switches.  I’m actually kinda proud, sorta.  Haha.
4. I first recorded on a crappy ten dollar mic on Audacity with no clue how to edit vocals, so everything was really spike-y in volume.  Ugh.  I currently record with Pro Tools, but a real basic version of it.
5. I actually enjoyed singing more than rapping as a kid.  Singing was so cool cuz it made your voice an instrument.  But I quickly found that I didn’t have the chops for singing.  That’s when I started to realize the depth with which rappers write and perform.  A singer can take simple lyrics and make them sound amazing with different things like harmonies and such.  A rapper makes words sound beautiful as well, but through things like flow and multi-syllabics.
6. Even in a genre where just about everyone is talking about being a player and having tons of money and smoking this and drinking that, I really don’t fit in at all.  I don’t smoke, don’t drink, I’m broke and I don’t do this for the money, and I really respect women.  Like, I really do.  I see every woman as somebody’s mother [current or future] or sister or cousin or something.  And I personally would hate to see someone mistreat my mother/sister/cousin/whatever or even call them a degrading name.  So I refuse to do so with other females as well.  :D
7. I started taking my writing seriously for the wrong reasons.  I tried to win my ex back just after she broke it off.  And it was really bad cuz even though I was writing from the heart, it was still for reasons I felt were wrong.  However, after I said screw this and started to enjoy making songs because I loved music so much, I realized a drastic improvement not only in songwriting but also in life.  I was a lot more positive and I smiled so much more since I fell in love with rapping/music in general.
8. Only a select handful of people IRL know that I dabble in music.  Maybe I’m just shy about sharing my passion, but I’m sure I’ll come around and share it eventually.  Haha.
9. I can’t play instruments for beans.  I just..Idk.  Haha.  I tried to take piano lessons back in my sophomore year of high school, but I failed so hard.  XD
10. I can’t stand ignorant people who say that rap takes no skill at all because it’s just like poetry over drums.  Because we can’t sing or play an instrument.  But you’d actually be surprised at what rappers can sing and play multiple instruments.  I just think that the fact that we rap allows us to fit more words into a song thus allowing more time to express ourselves.  Not to take away from singers/instrumentalists cuz that stuff requires a lot of skill.  But don’t take away from rappers because this requires a lot of skill as well.  Not that I have much, but I’m getting there.  XDD

1. I really miss the 90’s.  Even if I was still a kid then, it was always fun to turn to certain channels and get what I was expecting.  You know.  Turning to Music Television [MTV] and seeing..oh Idk..MUSIC.  And Cartoon Network had just cartoons.  And they were quality stuff as well, not the mindless junk that’s on there now.  And the Disney stars of that time period were pure and good [except for Lindsey Lohan, but hey, it was just her I think?].  What happened?
2. I cannot stand to listen to songs that have no point or meaning.  Even worse when that junk gets popular.  Seeing such lame lyricists make it so big [like Soulja Boy /cringe] really gives me no hope for the music industry.
3. I don’t swear.  Not just in my music, but I mean IRL as well.  Haha.  Idk, it’s just weird to hear it come from my mouth is all.  Worst it gets for me is if I’m like damn or something.  Haha.  Other than that, I’m too much of a goody two-shoes.  OTL
4. I’m a pretty heavy guy.  I’ve always been self-conscious about my weight but never really had the courage to try and get healthy.  My weight wasn’t too bad an issue at first, but the insults and jokes really hurt to a point where I would kind of bury my pain under food.  Not until a few years ago did I realize the way I feared the rude comments was just ridiculous.  I started working out and not because of all the hate, but because I realized that things were bound to get out of control if I didn’t wake up and start taking control of my life.  Plus, it’d be nice to rub in all the naysayers’ faces, right?  Haha.  I’ve lost about fifty pounds since and I’m aiming to raise the amount of weight lost.  And although I’m tryna get healthier, it doesn’t mean that I’m not comfortable with my size.  I am.  I’m proud to be an honestly good person on the inside, because you probably won’t believe how many beautiful people I’ve seen with such ugly personalities.  Not saying all good-looking people are like that, but it goes to show that it’s what’s inside that counts.  Cheesy, I know.  But it’s true.  :]
5. I never really organize anything.  That explains why my facts are all over the place.  Haha.  I usually do things spontaneously and unplanned.
6. I grew up on Nintendo.  GameBoys, the NES, the SNES, N64, Gamecube, Wii.  All of it.  Except the Virtual Boy.  Ugh, Nintendo fail.  Haha.  But yeah, I grew up playin’ most of the systems.
7. I can’t hate people.  I might dislike them, but I never hate them.  I do, however, hate things.  Like ignorance.  And racism.  And homework.
8. Speaking of homework, I hardly did any back in high school.  I never studied much either.  I know, it’s not something to be proud of, but I learned differently.  As long as I understood the concept taught in class, I didn’t do the homework.  I know it’s to exercise what you’ve learned, but still.  I found it unnecessary as I aced just about every test.  My grades balanced out to about C’s and stuff, so I wasn’t too bugged about stuff like that.
9. I don’t speak anything but English.  Haha.  So it’s really weird that I’m probably the only guy of my ethnicity that I know of that can’t speak or understand the language.  X]
10. I always get a real bad feeling in my stomach when I feel like someone is being treated unfairly or unjustly.  I make a horrible liar that way.  D:

1. I’m 6’3” in height.  I’d always been kinda tall throughout my childhood years.  Not the tallest, but I was usually in the top three tallest guys on campus.  XD
2. I was born and raised here in Hawaii, yet Idek where most cities are located.  OTL
3. I’ve never been out of the state.  Farthest I’ve traveled was to the Big Island, but that’s only an inter-island deal.
4. Though I’m really into writing/rapping, I actually never thought to take it seriously back when I was growing up.  I really wanted to be a comic book artist.  I drew anytime that I had a writing/drawing tool in hand.  Even if there wasn’t paper or anything to draw on, I’d draw on myself sometimes.  Yes, weird, I know.  XD
5. I’m the second oldest of my siblings, yet I constantly take on a guardian role for the younger ones.  My older brother [the oldest] doesn’t shoulder those responsibilities for some reason.  URGH.  Haha.  I’m used to it though.
6. I can’t drink soda.  The fizziness or carbonation or whatever the heck it is that makes it so impossible to drink for me, I just can’t.  I didn’t grow up drinking it so I’m not used to the fizz part.  >___<
7. I tend to laugh a lot.
8. I listen to music so often, it’s rare to not see me with earphones on.  Even when they’re off, I’m humming to something or beatboxing.  XDD
9. For the guys, remember that point in time where you grew up thinking girls were gross and kissing was like disgusting as crap?  Yes, that is me.  Now.  Haha.  I never paid attention in any of the sex ed classes they gave us back in middle school.  I didn’t find an attraction to girls until much later.  Haha.  Before that, girls were just like us guys but less willing to get dirt on their clothes [and yes, there’s the anatomical difference, but again, I didn’t learn all that ‘till about high school OTL].
10. Although I’m from Hawaii, I’m not Hawaiian.  Blood-wise, anyway.  I’m actually Samoan.  We’re in the general area of Polynesian and such.  Haha.
