Yoseob pointing out the cameraman's mistake at 1:45 was the cutest thing EVER, omg *____*. I can't stop replaying that part! From where he stylishly turned around at 1:44, to 1:45 when he pointed to Hyunseung who was singing, indicating to the cameraman that he should be filming him instead, while being all smiley and cool. GUH why so adorable, Yoseob?!
I actually wanted to post this just because of that LMAO, but hey, this performance is awesome! Best one so far. Everyone's vocals are very clear and the pitchy parts are all gone. Yoseob's vocals are as steady as ever, and his hoarse voice is hot damn. PLEASE perform a rock song someday, Yoseob! The dance is as coordinated as usual, even though I still wished they had added something to the choreography. And I forgot to mention that I love how in the beginning Junhyung held Yoseob back, even though I don't know what it's all about. (I love everything Yoseob+Junhyung, WHAT.) All the boys look spiffy in suits. There was some Doowoon going on, and Dongwoon's reaction was adorable haha. Leader fools around a lot, huh xDD. Dongwoon is the best-looking member by a mile, by the way; he's so handsome I'm thankful that he's not younger than me xP.
Was offered my second choice, Business. I actually knew that I wouldn't get in, but now that it's confirmed, it feels kinda.. funny, haha.
I guess I'll just study Business then. I think I'll drop out of the double degree programme that I was offered 'cos I listed it in my choice -- Business Admin and Communications & New Media -- and just take a single degree. I'll take Psychology as a minor and take language modules. I'll probably stay in a hall. After the 4 years, I may take a MBA for around 1.5 year. After graduating I'll find a job, and hopefully make a lot of money. I'll buy a car and a good house. I'll retire when I have enough money to travel around the world on a tight budget. If by the age of 45 I still don't have enough, I'll go on a backpacking trip, and maybe stay a few months at each stop before moving on to the next destination. After travelling, I'll return here, find another job, spend my life away.
I don't think I'll go for the USP interview. I wanted to get into USP because the modules are interesting, because as business isn't what I like to do, I'd like to have something I actually like to keep me looking forward to school. But then again, USP modules are tough. And I may not even get in, in the first place. And for the time being, everything seems kinda meaningless, haha ^^;;.
Beast released this "Sincere Version" of the song as a digital single last week. I didn't manage to post it because I was too busy listening to Jay's new single, but I think it's very good -- it really does feel more sincere, lol xD. Other than rearranging the parts, they stripped down the background music in the beginning to just mostly piano, violin and cello, plus I think they re-recorded the parts in the first verse and chorus to bring out the softer feeling of the song. The only thing that bothers me is Junhyung's newly-added two English sentences in the beginning, though; I love Junhyung, but I really can't make out what he's saying ^^;;. His rapping part in the middle of the song is absolutely my favourite part off this song, by the way!
Anyway! The performance is awesome. Everyone nailed his part perfectly. But hey, that's nothing new, since they have been performing really well in the other radio performances of this song :). The boys are looking great too! I don't know why Hyunseung always gets weird hairstyles during the first single promotion period, but has awesome hair during the follow-up song LOL.
Special
After all the speculations, it turned out that their follow-up song is Special! That's what I thought from the very beginning, okay xPP. It's just kinda funny that after Shock, they released an MV for Take Care of My Girlfriend, then released another version of Easy, but then now they're going to be performing Special as their follow-up song. They sure like to keep the fans guessing, huh? Not that I'm complaining, though, 'cos I think that this song can leave a stronger impact than Easy.But I still wished that they would be performing Take Care of My Girlfriend instead.
About the performance, vocally it was good, though not without slightly pitchy parts here and there. Yoseob's hoarse voice here totally rocks, 'nuff said xDDD. I was disappointed with the choreography though; a lot of times the boys were just standing around doing nothing, like huh DD:. I LOVE the group robotic moves thing during Junhyung's rap starting at 2:14 and that little floor move, though, and the dance after that got a little tighter. I know that even though the moves seem lax, they are more difficult than Shock choreography, since this one has a lot more popping and what not. Still, I hope they will modify it a little x__x. I think that more can be done, since this song is a powerful dance track that can leave an impression on viewers. Like what they did with Mystery and Shock, they should have invented a move that is easy to remember, and if necessary, easy to imitate, at the "Special, special, special guy" part in the beginning of the choruses. I know nuts about dance so I can't give any specific examples, but really, think harder, guys!
I LOVE V.O.S ♥♥♥. LIKE, REALLY, REALLY. They look good in the MV too ^^.

Get up and go, take a chance and be strong Don't look back just go, take a breath, move along Believe the tunnel can end, believe your body can mend
Yeah I know you can make it through, cause I believe in you So let's go put up a fight, let's go make everything all right Go on and take a shot, go give it all you've got
Even though I keep saying that I already know what the result is going to be (I even made a bet of $50 with my mum), the wait is killing me x__x. I even checked the online portal a few times today, even though I know that it's a Saturday lol. I think it's because today is already the first day of May. Last year the result came out on the 7th of May.
Tomorrow is an off day. ARGH I need to get out of the house.
