Do not be fooled or be foolish

Eyes blurry. Nose clogged. Cocooned in bed. And I just have to let this out. This is so important. /cough/

 

We can be fangirls but still have dignity. We can support artists by not putting them in high pedestals and following them blindly. They are still imperfect human beings like us. Remember that. 

 

Last week, Marc Logan's segment (known to highlight hilarious videos) in TV patrol (local news program) featured a viral Youtube video of Daniel Padilla's (artist) die-hard fan lamenting how her mom didn't allow her to see him live, enumerating the woes of a desperate fangirl whose ultimate dream in life is to see her idol in person. It is pretty scary. And tonight, Marc Logan had a follow-up on that when they recorded the meeting of Daniel and his fangirl. Watch it if you can or want. I shall stop myself from describing it in detail, how she kissed the pentel pen cap because Daniel has a habit of putting the pen on his lips while signing.

But...I can't help but wonder. Are you like her? Uh, I can tolerate blogs but...I was the one ashamed for her. I don't know if i should be comforted or scared by the fact that she isn't in the least bit embarrassed.

 

I can't believe how naive fans can get. The characters of Kim Chiu and Maja Salvador are rivals in a drama and now there is a real life drama about them over a guy. OTL. Can't people discern what is real from what is not? Seriously?! And why is it on the news? Is it news worthy? It is for publicity people! 

No wonder my sister would always comment on our local dramas, "Huwag manuod niyan. Nakakabobo yan." Lol. (Don't watch it. It makes one stupid.)

 

And here I am affected by such foolishness.

 

/I should rest.

Hope you feel better. have enough rest and sleep.

Really? wow.. I can't believe things like these still happen. I would love to meet my bias, don't get me wrong but not to this extent. I sometimes miss watching thing on my own language but since the theme of most dramas or movies are about cheating and mistress.. I erhmm.. don't watch it at all. My mom would say the same maybe that's why growing up we just watch english movies and programs most of the time. That didn't kept us from watching fil things once in a while but because it became the norm in the house..we were not subjected to it.

I am a fangirl alright.. but I do love myself and I hate being embarrassed.

Get well soon, Keeper. :)

Haha, I'm pretty sure I won't be like that. I quite like 2PM and went to their concert, but the people in front of me decided to stand on their seats so all I could see was their legs with 2PM's voice as the background. OTL Well, I didn't want to stand on my seat to try to see the stage so I went home early because I couldn't see anything. LOL. That's how bad I try to act cool all the time.

I haven't tried it with SHINee though. Or Onew in particular. LOL. When I went to SMTown concert and lined up with the others (mostly teenagers) and saw them squeal or push their way to get in first or being extremely ecstatic, I just watched and thought that I was too old for all that. :p

One of the reasons I don't go to airport to welcome idols or send them back too. I feel ashamed for those fangirls and also feel bad for the idols. OTL
But mainly because I care for my safety. LOL. I mean, fangirls/boys in sight of their idols; they could be pretty violent. OTL

Get well!!!

I really don't like going to that level of fangirling. I mean... it's delusional and annoying. I mean, yes, there are times that you just wanna scream out loud even with just a picture of your bias/idol but trust me when I say that even a squeak from me in public puts me to shame. I dunno how they do it. O.O

... Your sister is right and that's why I don't watch FilDramas too. It's like fanfiction that's controlled by the audience.

I'll be so excited if I am to meet one of my most loved biases, my heart will go on a marathon right in my chest and breathing a mile a second,I'll be squirming inside, but in front of him, I'll try to act cool lolol
