Seeing pictures of Taemin and Minho in Saipan makes me want to slap a bitch

URGH. Do you know the infinite rage I have right now? Do. You. Know?!
Of course not.
Okay, so the past few days I was scanning the online world for photos of SHINee to add to my growing library of SHINee pictures (to use for poster requests. Plzzz I'm not like that, whatever it is you're thinking T_T). And then, I come across adorable pictures of Taemin and Minho in Saipan. Again.
And again.
And again...
At first, I was like "Awww Y U SO KAYOOOOT TAEMINNIE APPA?" +_+ And then anger began to well up inside of me. They came here back in November (I think?). Back when I was MOST DEFINITELY NOT a Shawol. I was into BEAST and Big Bang - and none other. Back in November, SHINee meant NOTHING to me. SHINee looked like a bunch of oh-so-feminine guys in the tightest and brightest jeans that could possibly blind your innocent eyes.
In a nutshell, I was all nonchalant about SHINee being in Saipan (where I'm from). A group of girls I knew were discussing it openly on Facebook, and since it was a Kpop discussion, I jumped right in. They were talking about how "SHINee members are here on SAIPAN?!?!" and I commented (it was on a status), "Oh really? Who?" And the girl replied, "Taemin and Minho!"
I did a quick Google search on Taemin, since I didn't know who the hell he was and I could not possibly name all the SHINee members, one by one, for the life of me. Turns out (via the ever so unreliable Wikipedia) that he was the "lead dancer" (in which, I swear to God, I didn't know idol groups had LEAD DANCERS. I knew they had LEADERS and LEAD VOCALS, but lead dancers? What do they do? Get center stage most of the time? Then what were the leaders for?). So, yeah. I went back to Facebook and replied, "Oh really? Taemin and Minho?? I LOOOVE TAEMIN!!"
Pshh. Right. I lied. I knew nothing on Taemin, and I only said that because I didn't like Minho so much - appearance wise. I saw him in SNSD's "Gee" video, and the first thing that popped into my mind was:
"They really couldn't have gotten a better-looking guy?"
/gets bricked.
I was proven wrong months later, of course. I now think he's the best looking in the group.
Back to what I was saying about Taemin. I haven't seen a picture of Taemin until right after I commented the status. Google really gives awful first impressions, because this is the very first picture of Taemin that I saw:
After seeing that, in my mind I was like... "Erm.. THIS is my favorite SHINee member?!?! WTFFFF~" Of course, I didn't know who Key or Onew or Jonghyun were until I started stumbling onto SHINee fanfics. Haha I used to always get Key and Onew mixed up, since they looked so much alike in my eyes.
Well, anyway, since I knew nothing about SHINee, I didn't care. I was only stoked because it was all in the name of Kpop, but other than that, it was like dust in the wind. Or some other witty metaphor.
Months later, when my love for SHINee has escalated beyond a reasonable doubt, I find myself viewing pictures of 2min lollygagging here in Saipan (well, not exactly lollygagging since they were all drenched in some serious mud and Dream Team sweat) with a torn ego and a heavy heart. Why is that every time an idol comes here to Saipan, I don't care and by the time they're loooong gone, I give a damn?!? Beast's Kikwang was here in Saipan, too, for Hot Brothers, but I wasn't into Beast as much back then. T_T
UGH. LOOK AT THIS:
Do you not SEE the adorability of such a boy? I can't believe I took a picture in the same spot months before he took this picture. I'd show you guys, but it's not in my camera and it's off of Facebook. (Hah. I bet you're all like "RIIIIIGHTTT, Angela, right.") Don't have to believe me, but yes, I did go to Managaha (the island where Taemin is in that picture) and I did take a picture in front of those same fallen tree limbs which is located in the more remote part of that island.
Seeing those pictures of Taemin and Minho in Saipan makes me want to slap a bitch. I am so frustrated that I wasn't a Shawol back then and that I didn't care.
But on the brightside, it could be a good thing, right? I mean, if I were a Shawol around the time they were here on Saipan, I'd definitely be hyperventilating like mad until I get a glimpse of them. I don't want to explain to my parents why I have to be at the hotel they're staying at or at Managaha at a certain time of day. That'd be too weird, and besides, my parents have no idea how serious my love for the Hallyu wave is. My mom still thinks I'm in love with this boy from Miami whom I met when I was in Kansas City for the summer (and still keep in contact with), and the sad part is that she approves.
I swear, it's almost like some sort of arranged marriage. I like the guy, and my mom thinks he's very very handsome.... but he's definitely not my type. He's quite the opposite of Taeminnie appa, and though he's athletic and smart and good looking, I think I'd pass for now. My mom would think I'm crazy but I dunno... Nothing beats a romantic, sweet, and sensitive Korean boy.
Wait, I'm going off topic.
So yeah, loooong blog short:
I wish someone would delete ALL photos of 2min in Saipan so I can feel better about myself. Please.
