ようこそ２０１４！Welcome 2014!

Hi guys!

RUBS here. First of all, I'd like to thank all our readers for sticking through with us up until now and those who have just started reading our blog, Welcome! You guys should comment more, we'd be glad to here your thoughts on our posts, whether it be in agreement or not...talk to us! 

Anyway, this will be my personal post on the happenings of 2013. 

So 2013 was my last year of high school and a year that just happen to fly by so quick! It was filled with drama, stress, break-downs and lots and lots of change. At the beginning of the year, I had so many unanswered questions; what is my future going to be like? what career should I pursue? what if I fail HSC? All these questions made me confused and I didn't know what to do. Alas, my exam-period came and went by---and yet I was still confused as ever. Now, I'm starting my University in two months time and yes, I still don't have a clue what I should do with my life.

BUT. I do know this--life won't stop and wait to see how you're going, it won't say 'Oh hey, RUBS you look like you don't know what to do with your life, let me tell you the answer to life!'. So I've decided, I'll enjoy what I have at the moment and see where life takes me. Because, I guess, I've just always been that type of girl--laid back, and living in the present. 

April 2013- this was the month, where I fell headlong into the world of 48 and changed (yes this sounds cheesy, but it's so very much true!) my whole lifestyle. Now I remember this time of the year was quite scary, whilst everyone was studying for our first real, serious block of exams, I was marathoning AKBingo! and hurriedly learning every terminology, members' names, and the history of the Akihabara Girls. There was so much to learn but such limited time! I was supposed to be studying!  I had no idea I could and would jump into a fandom so quickly and so deeply. You could say, there was no Waiting Stage for me ha. But yes, to think that I hated AKB48 back in Year 7 with a passion! Hahaha. I remember being disgusted by the amount of Bikini PVs they had! I think it was Baby! Baby! Baby! that really turned me away from the fandom. *sigh* I missed out on so much. 

Anyways, sorry for the long wall of text. I thought It'd be fun (totally not ripping this idea off TAKA) to show you my "favourites..." of the 48G. So enjoy! and let me know whether we have the same favourites :)
