This morning was so awesome

Ah I just couldn't keep this to myself, so I figured I'd write a blog post about it!

This morning, Psy was in Sydney as a guest on Channel 7's Sunrise program here in Australia. My class didn't start until 10 so I decided to go, with my best friend. We stopped at Maccas and got a frozen coke, before heading up onto the street, wondering what we were going to see.....Well we certainly weren't expecting to see a mini-concert stage set up like that! There were heaps of people (for 8:30 in the CBD), all just milling around. There were police officers and barricades set up, to create an enclosed space in front of the stage. We got excited and walked down, but we were too far back to really be able to see much of anything. Everyone started screaming off and on, whenever they thought he might come out, though we had no idea when that would be....Everyone milling aorund, some people in business attire, holding drinks and pastries and whatnot, was so exciting... I think I could have died when they played gangnam style...he was dancing on the stage and everyone was singing along, it was the best feeling...

Nothing better than kpop and a frozen coke in the morning!

But the song ended and people started to leave....I had to go or else I would miss my tutorial class and then all that happiness evaporated.... I was disappointed and I couldn't work out why... Then I realised, I was getting into one of my kpop funks.... I spend my days listening to kpop and writing about kpop and reading about it.... It's a major part of my life (like it is for a lot of you guys too I'm sure).... Normally all you can do is think about it, because the people involved are in another country....But for someone to be there, to be close enough to see...but completely obscured from your vision by your lack of height, and the wave of apple devices that shot up to get pictures....Makes you feel so small, so distant from something that is so important to you on a personal level.... and you realise that it wasn't personal for them in the same way as it was for you...

and that hurts in a way....

Don't you hate it when that happens? When something you should love, makes you happy for a little while only to make you sadder in the end?
