#nothingwithoutwannaone

Congrats to Wanna One for winning Best Group Performance at the 2019 Golden Disc Awards! We are all so incredibly proud ^^

Thanks again to @prettywordsyouleft for tagging me in yet another tag! As usual, I will not tag anyone but if you’re feeling it, go right ahead and do the tag ^^

Rules: List 10 songs you’re currently obsessed with and the reason why; tag 10 people when you’re done

It’s gonna be a lengthy post...so fair warning XD

1. L.O.V.E. - Park Ji Hoon

If you know me, you know that Ji Hoon is my bias wrecker. I was so excited for him when I heard he would be debuting as a solo artist, and I fell in L.O.V.E. (heh) as soon as I heard this song. We weren’t given a chance to hear much of Ji Hoon singing in Wanna One, but he has suuuuch a good vocal tone. I’m really glad he got to showcase his talents as a solo artist (who needs a featuring rap artist when you can sing AND rap in your own song). Such a talented person, and I can’t wait to see him continue to shine on and off the stage.

2. Universe - Hwang Min Hyun

If you know me, then you’ll also know that Min Hyun is my bias. I was overjoyed that we’d get a single preview of the upcoming Nu’est album with Min Hyun’s single release. The MV was so theatrical, and we got to see a bit of actor Min Hyun ;) Min Hyun is obviously such a good singer, but aside from Masked Singer, we haven’t been able to get a solo from him since he was in Wanna One. Now that he’s back with Nu’est, I’m glad he’s able to shine as singer by himself. Of course, it’s nice to have him complete Nu’est again, so I’m super excited for their next comeback :)

3. Lips on Lips - Tiffany Young

I knew Tiffany was a good singer, but her American debut really blew me away. I think it was really cool she got to produce music that she wanted to do, and got to collaborate in the process. This song is just so catchy and I loved it right away. I hope to hear from her again soon!

4. You Like the Wind - Yoon Ji Sung

I could write an essay about how much I love Ji Sung, but hearing his debut album blew me away. I would say half of his songs are ballad type/slower songs. This one has a bit of EDM vibes to it, and I just love the beat. Probably closer to the Wanna One songs he had been doing, but now I get to hear more of his voice instead of trying to see how many lines he gets like before. Can’t say much more except that it’s an awesome song I can never get bored of.

5. Runaway - Tiffany Young ft. Babyface

Never knew I had a thing for R&B until I heard this song LOL. Tiffany and Babyface’s voices mesh really well together, and I just really like the vibe of this song. Also another one I can never get bored of; it’s definitely been on repeat for me at some point.

6. Gotta Go - Chung Ha

MY QUEEN. I’ve always loved her and knew that she was beautiful and talented, but this was the song that really put her on the playing field. She got her first of many wins with this song, and rightly so! Super super catchy, and Chung Ha shows a different vibe than she has for her previous songs; let’s just say that it suits her well! I’m so, so, so! happy for her and I can’t wait to see what she has in store for us next (apparently, she’s working on a summer bop from what I’ve heard).

7. A Song For You - Nu’est

The first song we’ve had with Nu’est as 5 members since 2016. This song filled my heart with so much joy, and it was such a pleasure to hear Min Hyun singing with his Nu’est brothers again. It’s such a heartfelt song from the boys as a present to LOVEs on their 7th year anniversary. Another one of those songs that I would put on repeat because it’s just SO GOOD. I’m sure anyone who is a fan of Nu’est will agree with me! Looking forward to their imminent comeback ^^

8. Your Number - SHINee

SHINee will always have a spot in my heart. They were the second boy group I followed extensively (after SS501), and despite all their hardships, they’ve managed to stick together and produce works of art after more works of art. This particular one is a japanese song, but I just love the beat and the dance. Them visuals are on point...and who doesn’t like SHINee in suits? I’m definitely not complaining!

9. 12th Star - Wanna One

This song gives me mixed feelings, mostly because it’s SUCH A GREAT SONG, but also it was in a way, a good bye song from Wanna One to Wannables before...let’s not talk about that. But anyway, it’s a great ballad to listen to, and the lyrics are very meaningful. 

10. Crush - David Archuleta

Sorry this is is so late Vyvi x.x I had to go back and make sure I had the right ask list before doing it again (since I got it so horribly wrong last time XD)

9. Top 3 Brand New Music bias?

Is it cheating to put Woo Jin/Dae Hwi and Dong Hyun/Young Min all together? lol

18. Top 3 Wanna One Bias

Hwang Min Hyun, Park Ji Hoon….Yoon Ji Sung. Had a hard time with number three there…but Ji Sung has given me major bias wrecker feels as of late x.x

21. Top 3 Wanna One’s variety/reality show?

Happy Together (that’s what started it all…), Zero Base, and Wanna Travel ^^

22. Top 3 of why do you stan wannaone?

All 11 members are talented, hilarious, and wholesome. Enuf said.

36. Top 3 mutuals on tumblr?

Decline to state. Everyone is a valued mutual, whether or not we talk frequently.

37. Top 3 Tumblr user you wish to be friends?

I’m honestly too busy nowadays to really be a good friend, but if I had to name a few…. @woojin @romeongs and @ongnable >///<

You thought I forgot, didn’t you @pjihoons​ :p Welp, I didn’t, but I have been quite busy. Sorry we haven’t been talking like we used to, but I hope you enjoy this as my gift to you. Happy Birthday, and I hope you have many more happy ones to come ^^Y

so, it’s your birthday right?

yea, it is, no question about it

but you weren’t really feeling it

why? wow, stresssssss

stress from school, from homework, from family

it was just all building up

and boy was it difficult x.x

you might have shed some tears

but that’s okay, it’s your birthday today

what else could go wrong?

right?

nothing really, persay

but like, nothing really happened??????

sure it was like any other day, but you would have at least expected your best friend Ji Hoon to do something

granted, you both weren’t in the same class, so you would just have to wait till lunch break

and wait till lunch break you did

but when lunch break came around, and you went looking for him, he was no where to be found

even when you asked his friends, they had no idea

“oh, Ji Hoon? we haven’t seen him since lunch started. we thought he was with you???”

“oh, okay...i guess i’ll just head to the dance room, thanks..”

and so you went to the dance room

you kind of lost your appetite, so might as well spend the rest of lunch dancing off your stress 

you were meaning to work on that one move from that one song anyway

maybe you could perfect it before 5th period

low and behold, when you walked into the dance room

there was Ji Hoon holding a wrapped box that had your name on it

“happy birthday, Y/N! here’s your present!”

how did he know you would be entering the dance room?

“hey, Y/N is heading to the dance room, get readyyyyy” - bae jin young

how sly of him

you thank him before opening up the box to reveal some new dance shoes, ones you had been telling him about for months

“omg, how did you get these?????”

“i stopped eating chicken for a month”

and you know he’s a true best friend when he gives up his favorite food for you

“thank you so much!”

“so you like them, right?”

“of course i do! how could i not?”

“good, because i’m so chicken deprived.”

“well, now you’re making me feel bad”

“i’m just kidding! sort of, I did hold back but i’m not that chicken deprived”

he says before pulling out a box from behind him

“you didn’t eat lunch yet, right? come on, let’s share this. i can’t eat by myself”

“lies”

because you’ve totally seen him eat an entire chicken by himself

“okay, you right, but still. it’s your birthday and skipping meals is a big no no”

and that was how your birthday went

In which completing your homework isn’t so bad, especially with your best friend.

I really should be sleeping but I wanted to write this out before I did. Dedicating this to my hardworking gal @hopesdreamsandalatte I hope this cheers you up, and motivates you for the rest of the week. No matter what happens, I know you can power through. You’re doing great!

Y/N trudged her way into the library, and slumped down into a heap at one of the tables. Why was school so hard? She tried her best but despite doing so, her grades weren’t looking too good. Yesterday, her score for an English project came out, and she didn’t even want to remember that. Today she had a French test, which she wasn’t too sure she did well on. And to add more fuel to the flames, her math teacher had assigned 50 problems for homework, all of which were due tomorrow.

Sure, no one told her it would be easy, but no one told her it’d be this hard either. Having homework assigned every day was tiring, and Y/N barely had time to do what she wanted. As soon as homework was done, it was time for bed.

Taking out her math textbook, Y/N opened up to the assigned pages. After taking one look at the first problem, she let out a groan before dropping her head down onto the table.

She didn’t know how long she stayed like that, miserable and hopeless, until a hand tapped her on the shoulder.

“Hey, Y/N...is everything okay?”

“Does it look like everything is okay?”

Y/N mumbled before lifting her head up to see her best friend Dae Hwi. He had a look of concern on his face as he pulled out the chair next to her, and settled down.

“No, not really, but I had to ask. Want to tell me what’s wrong?”

“Everything is just so difficult. I think all of my teachers thing I’m a failure by now, and it’s only the second month of school!”

She went on to say that it felt like she never had enough time to do everything she wanted, and get enough sleep. Not to mention, that talent show was coming up in a few weeks, an she hadn’t even had time to practice with all the work she’s been bombarded with.

“Hey, hey, it’s going to be all right!”

Y/N gave Dae Hwi a glowering look.

“How can you say that so confidently?”

“Well, because I’m your best friend and I have the right to!”

Y/N rolled her eyes and let out a sigh. That didn’t really make her feel any better.

“But on a more serious note, I say that because I know you can do it. You did it in middle school, so you can do it now.”

“Kind of hard to believe when I can’t even earn good grades.”

“Maybe you just need a little help,” Dae Hwi said before he pulled out his pens and papers. He pulled the open textbook closer to the both of them, and wrote out the first problem on his paper.

“What are you going to do, do my homework for me?”

“No silly, that’s cheating! Anyway, you’re probably used to doing homework on your own, but if we work together, we can solve these problems in no time. Plus, we can give each other moral support, and keep each other accountable. I know how much time you spend on that blog of yours.”

Y/N took a look at her blank sheet, before looking back at Dae Hwi, who was smiling encouragingly at her.

“Are you sure I can do this?”

“Of course I do,” he said simply, without any pretense, just sincerity. 

She took a deep breath and picked up her pencil.

“All right, let’s do this!”

“There’s the Y/N that I know.”

“And by the way, I do not spend that much time on my blog.”

“Who was telling me over the weekend that they spent 4 hours coding that theme?”

“In my defense, I was trying to get the heading in the right spot!”

“Uh huh, sure.”

“Hey, I thought we’re supposed to be giving each other moral support. This isn’t even close, Dae Hwi!”

Writing this bullet story real quick before I go back to studying. You thought I forgot your birthday, didn’t you @ldaehwis :p Well, I didn’t, but I have been swamped. Hope you’re doing well and sorry I’ve been so busy that we haven’t talked in awhile. Happy Birthday, and I hope you had an awesome one today and many more to come ^^Y

today was your birthday!

but wow, were you not feeling it

why? oh yeah, you had a bad night

bad as in, wow all that homework and stress and family stuff

just not a good night

but that was okay, maybe today would be better

it was your birthday, right?

surely your friends would remember?

or maybe they didn’t

you walked into school and there was nothing

absolutely nothing

not even a “happy birthday Y/N!” or “wow, it’s your birthday today, right?”

nada, none, zilch

well, what were you expecting anyway????

but boy oh boy oh boy, were you wrong

little did you know, your best friend Dae Hwi had cooked up a little something

i suppose baked would be the more appropriate verb

because you bake a cake, not cook it

anyway, he had something planned

he had convinced all of your classmates to pretend they didn’t know it was your birthday

as if they hadn’t been reminded by him on a daily basis for a week now

for one week, he reminded them

and if they forgot, no worries, he reminded them again

“remember it’s Y/N’s birthday next wednesday! but don’t tell her i told you!”

“yeah, yeah, we got it daehwi.”

“do you though????”

that was what he did, yessir

so by the time lunch came around, you were the only one in the classroom

which was strange to you, because didn’t other people eat lunch in here usually?

other people like your best friend Dae Hwi????

who, by the way, did NOT remember your bday????

how dare he

how DARE he

but let’s remember that you were wrong

and bam, the door opens and everyone comes in, led by Dae Hwi who is holding a cake with your name on it

everyone’s singing the birthday song, albeit off key, but they were still singing it

you’re nearly crying at this point, but hold your tears back because wow everyone is staring at you

can’t let that mascara run

once the song finishes, Dae Hwi steps forward with your cake

“you thought i forgot, didn’t you?”

“....”

“come on, you didn’t really think i did, did you?”

“.....yes?”

“wow, Y/N. you have so much faith in me!”

“sorry okay! i had a rough night and then i came here to like...no one remembering. and i wasn’t going to announce it or something...

“well it’s okay now. we remembered, and we got you a cake! make a wish!”

and so you closed your eyes and made a wish before blowing out the candles

“what did you wish for, Y/N?”

“i’m not supposed to tell you, or else it won’t come true”

“wow okay, I see how it is, even after all i’ve done for you”

“can’t jinx it, man”

“promise you’ll tell me when it comes true?”

“i promise” (you...so clever, i know)

“all right, let’s cut the cake everyone. where are the plates???”

and that was how your birthday went

This is for my adorable and beautiful mutual @lovejihoonie 

I know she’s had a tough day so I wanted to write something, which will hopefully cheer her up. I know you’re tired and exhausted, but things will get better in time. Everyone has “one of those days”, but I promise things will lighten up. 

I understand it’s hard to talk sometimes, but just know that I’m always here to listen if you need me to. Rest up, and feel better, okay? <3

In which your friend cheers you up on a gloomy day.

Ji Hoon knew something was wrong when you walked into the classroom with a gloomy expression on your face. You didn’t even bother to say “hi” like you always did every morning. Instead, you walked straight to your desk, took out your books and sat down, before staring aimlessly outside the window. 

He could barely focus during class because he was worried about you. Did something happen at home? Were you feeling sick? The first half of the day passed by sluggishly, and he was growing increasingly more anxious as the minutes ticked by. Finally, the last period before lunch ended, and he was finally free to go talk to you.

Only, he couldn’t. Just as the bell rang, you darted quickly from the classroom before he could catch you. Just as Ji Hoon was about to chase after you, he felt a hand on his shoulder. Turning around, he saw Woo Jin was looking at him curiously.

“Hey, is everything all right man? You kept fidgeting in your chair throughout class.”

“I’m fine, but I think something is wrong with Y/N. I’m just worried about her.”

“Yeah, I did notice she seemed down. Maybe you can get her some lunch and go cheer her up?”

“That’s a good idea, I was about to go after her empty-handed.”

And so Ji Hoon, with the help of Woo Jin, bought the two of you some lunch from the cafeteria. It wasn’t the best, but he managed to get your favorite snack and drink from the vending machine to go with it. With a pat on the back from Woo Jin, he headed off towards the school garden, where he knew you would be; the two of you ate lunch there often after all.

As expected, you were at the usual bench the two of you frequented. Ji Hoon heard you sigh as he saw you with your head down and shoulders hunched over, feet kicking at the grass below. He walked closer, and paused a moment before taking a seat quietly next to you. He waited until you looked up at him and smiled tentatively.

“I didn’t see you in the cafeteria so I figured you’d be here.”

You forced a smile and nodded.

“I didn’t feel too hungry today.”

“I don’t want to pry, but are you okay? I’ve been worried since this morning.”

You looked up curiously at Ji Hoon. He was worried about you?

“You were? How come?”

“We’re friends, Y/N. And friends worry when their friends don’t say ‘hi’ like they usually do. They also get more worried when they skip lunch.”

You had to crack a smile at that. It made you feel happy that you had a friend like Ji Hoon to care for you. Ji Hoon, seeing you smile felt a bit more reassured.

“Thanks, Ji Hoon. It’s good to know someone cares.”

“So...I don’t have to go fight anyone, right? Not that I’m scared, but I really shouldn’t...”

A giggle escaped your lips before a full on laugh followed. Wow, it felt good to laugh after what happened last night. It wasn’t anything bad, just an argument with your parents, but for some reason it left you exhausted. It wasn’t the first time it happened, however you were feeling exceptionally down today. And with finals coming up, you were feeling even more tired than usual.

“No, no fighting today Ji Hoonie.”

“Phew, didn’t want to mar my perfect record. And by the way, I know you’re not hungry, but I got you lunch anyway...and your favorite snack plus drink? Not trying to bribe you into eating, but lowkey totally am.”

You grinned and reached out to accept the food Ji Hoon held out to you. Surprisingly, you were feeling hungry again.

And so the rest of lunch passed by, with Ji Hoon making you laugh constantly with his jokes. When the warning bell rang, the both of you cleaned up and walked back to class together.

“Hey...Ji Hoon?”

“Yeah?”

“Thanks for today, really.”

He smiled and reached out to pat your head gently.

“It was nothing; I just did what friends are supposed to do. I hope whatever it was isn’t bothering you too much anymore. I’m here to listen if you need it, all right? Just know that it’ll be okay, I promise.”

You smiled before 

“Wow Ji Hoon, you’re pretty cool today.”

“Of course I am! When am I ever not cool?”

“I totally saw you do jeojang yesterday, after you made an oath not to do it anymore. That’s more cute instead of cool.”

“H..hey, how did you see that?”

“I have very sharp eyes, you know.”

“It’s not what it seems!”

“Uh huh, sure.”
