Sugoi ja...jamen.
Lately, I've found myself subscribing more and more to the "screw standards; I like what I like" way of thinking. Which is incredible considering that, until just recently, I've always been a snob. This was especially true for music. Whenever I liked a song of a genre/group I typically snubbed, I would refuse to acknowledge that fact simply because the song didn't fit the self-imposed quality level of music I was supposed to like. Which, frankly, is just stupid.
I think it takes a great deal of confidence to openly like something, particularly something that you're aware others might considered banal or tasteless, without fear of being judged or lumped into a category. And it's (hopefully) the direction I've been heading in over the past few months.
So basically, I've been trying to Americanize my music listening habits a bit. I think this effort was partly inspired by my finding out that the K-Pop fans in Singapore know more about American music than me, which is just so sad. Though I figure if I'm already at the point where I can listen to Justin Timberlake songs and genuinely like them, I'm already doomed. XD
Anyway, on a much less heavy note:
My CD came in on Thursday! It's one of those merchandise oddities that looks way better in person than it does on camera or scanned. I honestly thought the cover image was flat-out unattractive when I first saw the preview of it online, but the overall package turned out looking so snazzy. LOL @ me thinking that something with DBSK on it could be anything less than pretty. :3
