IM GOING CRAZZYYY I LOVE THE SONGS QUEUED FOR EACH MEMBER

songs queued! — boynextdoor’s ktv experiences with you

wc — 1.9k (~300-350 per member) genre & warnings — fluff, crack, platonic for woonhak, most scenarios will have alcohol involved (except for woonhak’s), songs that they’d sing in the karaoke included (with one opm song per member because i must give respect to my heritage that gifted me my talent) notes — one thing about me is that i do NOT play about ktvs. you will catch me drinking and having the time of my life in one almost every week (it's been a month since i last went. i miss it). if you enjoyed reading, please do reblog and leave feedback!

park sungho knows one thing: you and alcohol guarantee a night filled with tears. whether it would be over the worst week you’ve had or out of sheer joy from being surrounded with your friends, it’s a sob fest. the first time you cried to him in your intoxicated state brought him to drop the mic… until he heard you talk about the finale of your favorite series. it’s not that sungho doesn’t take you seriously, but he now knows what to do should you cry again.

✰ sungho never strays away from the microphone, always flipping through the songbook to find another song to queue. if anything, you were the type who seemed to avoid the microphone. yet, sungho never pushed you to sing, so long as you sung along or enjoyed the night.

✰ on the nights the reason behind your tears are serious, he leads you somewhere far from the party, and he’ll stick with you until the end. he won’t force you to talk about anything, only holding a glass of water should you ever need one. he knew these were the only moments you could allow yourself to vent, to be vulnerable, and he would never strip that from you. all he wants is to be there for you.

✰ before you leave the party, sungho checks up on you one last time. he wipes your tear stained cheeks before pulling you into a hug. although your intoxicated mind won’t remember, he tells you to call him the next day. and when morning comes, you’ll see a message from him saying that he’s on the way to your place with a bowl of chinese soup.

lee riwoo is all too familiar with your three different stages of intoxication. first, you’ll be in a bubbly mood, struggling to hold back your giggles over the smallest things that shouldn’t be funny. when you’ve had a bit more alcohol in your system, you’ll let loose and get on the dance floor, dragging riwoo along to enjoy the night with you. once you’ve calmed down, you’ll find yourself entering your third stage of intoxication: going nonverbal. riwoo follows the same stages as you.

✰ riwoo enjoys the karaoke with you. he can let loose and sing his heart out, knowing that someone is there to reciprocate the energy. it’s in the karaoke room—or maybe just being with you that he feels most alive. in your shared looks, you always read his mind, and you always came rushing to him with what he needed; another singing buddy, a person to dance with, someone to laugh with, the only one who can just sit in silence with him.

✰ when one of you go nonverbal, the other person makes it an effort to ask if they want to go somewhere far from the party. after all, the noise and lights could be overwhelming. riwoo always comes prepared with water while you always have earphones should the energy be too much. however, when the two of you find yourselves entering the third stage of intoxication, a corner in the room suffices. the only thing important to you two is having each other during these moments.

✰ while everyone goes off in their own, you and riwoo stick together. the way back home is a wordless one, but one filled with actions; hand holding and interlocked arms. the two of you thank the universe for silent moments—so long as you two are together.

myung jaehyun follows one rule when it comes to ktvs and you: act as the designated babysitter, specifically yours. you and alcohol never mix well. despite how many times you tell him that you aren’t going to drink, you can’t hold yourself back around a bottle of liquor. yet, jaehyun knows how much you needed the break. in fact, he’s always been the one person to tell you to stop spending late nights with your back slouched in front of your computer. so for now, he’ll allow you to have this time to let loose—so long as he’s there to take care of you. 

✰ one thing about jaehyun is that he knew how to have fun without the alcohol—that’s how you know he’s the life-of-the-party. somehow, he knew what you needed. someone to sing with? that’s him. someone to hype you up? easiest job for him. someone to take a break with? you didn’t have to ask—he knows. when he sees you taking a seat after you sing your heart out, he rushes to your side. sure, you need some water, but sometimes, you just want someone to lean on. and he always knows.

✰ as everyone starts to bid their farewells, you hold jaehyun’s arm half-asleep. given all the times he took care of you, there would be no question who brings you home. he knows what to do before you fall to your bed; watch out the remnants of the night so that you can enjoy your sleep. after all, he didn’t mind taking care of you. the soft babbling, the sudden giggles, the quiet snores—these happened to be his favorite moments after every night out. 

✰ whenever you wake up, you’d find hangover medicine and water on your bedside table. that was enough to make you smile.

han taesan knows all the telltale signs that show whenever you’ve had too much to drink. he moves quick, ready to catch you whenever you stumble or snatch a shot from you. as much as taesan could never hold back from your eyes that plead to him, he knows you; a morning with a pounding headache and lack of recollection of last night’s events isn’t one you wanted to deal with. you think he’s not doing you a favor, sulking as he tells you he won’t leave until you finish a glass of water, but you’ll thank him when the morning comes.

✰ some nights, you manage to get away from taesan’s scolding. however, that only brings him to think smarter. at a point of incoherency, you still search for alcohol, whining as you ask them to fill up your shot glass. while you expect it to be filled with vodka, taesan fills it with water without your knowledge. to really sell it, he’ll take a “shot” with you. your intoxicated mind could never tell. (it was always amusing to see you hiss over the “alcohol” going down your throat.) and when you struggled to keep up with the lyrics, taesan would join along and keep you up to pace.

✰ when the night finally comes to an end, taesan never allows himself to watch you go home by yourself. you’re too drunk to take care of yourself, and for his peace of mind, he stays with you until he sees you enter the front door. 

✰ when morning comes, taesan only recaps your foolish actions. while you sit in embarrassment, taesan laughs. (but he’ll never tell you of all the times he made sure you got home safe. he didn’t care how late in the night—or early in the morning—it would be. all he knows is that he’d do it any day.)

kim leehan can’t deny he likes you in your intoxicated state. you’re never this bubbly, clingy, with him unless you’ve got some alcohol in your system. and in this state, you never know how to control your words. shy compliments and secret confessions never fail to leave your mouth. he swears he can hear his heartbeat with every word you say. it starts off with the love songs; you never can stop yourself from singing them. while everyone’s busy singing along, they never spot the glances you take at leehan. he doesn’t know if it’s your poor attempt to look at him discreetly, but he will always lock eyes with you. it’s the heat in your cheeks that are enough to send a message his way.

✰ when you start settling down, you stay with leehan, latching onto his arm and basking in his warmth. leehan accepts your touch, even slinging an arm to hold you close. mumbles tumble out of your mouth. when he can’t understand, he’ll lean closer to you—and the distance is enough to make you lose your train of thought. (leehan can’t help but like your starstruck expression.)

✰ once the party comes to its end, you always sober up in time. you’re back to your laidback persona that everyone knows of. yet, leehan still looks at you like the same intoxicated person who held onto him almost the entire night. although you try to feign ignorance, he knows you all too well. his hand rests on top of your head, allowing you to enjoy briefly in his warmth before you go on your separate ways.

✰ you two never talk about it in the next morning. (but you two think back to it in the late hours of the night.)

kim woonhak would never pass on karaoke, especially if you’re coming along. every song becomes a duet with you. not in a way that you’re stealing each other’s spotlight but more to deliver the best performance in the booth. the karaoke booth transforms into anything you two want it to be; a stage, a garage, whatever space fits the song and you two.

✰ whenever you two get tired, you fall into a routine of catching up on anything and everything. somehow, you two can talk about anything in the world; lucid dreams, burning passions, the concept of water and if it’s wet. woonhak likes these conversations. if anything, he’d be happy to just talk, but he likes creating memories with you—living life with you. his youth is filled with you.

✰ while everyone leaves with a goal to rest, you and woonhak can’t seem to think about what’s in store for the next day. the way home is filled with laughter over tonight’s events. somehow, you remind him that there’s more to life than just school or work. there’ll always be space for these silly moments and never-ending conversations with you.

✰ mornings after surprisingly aren’t as noisy like the nights you spend at the ktv. somehow, you two like it slow, and woonhak’s happy enough to spend it with his favorite person.

A BEAUTIFUL JOURNEY OF LOVE AND HEALING

"Love You to the Stars and Back," starring Julia Barretto and Joshua Garcia, isn’t just another romantic movie it’s a story that resonates with anyone who’s ever faced heartache, struggled with their past, or searched for meaning in life. The film takes us on a deeply personal journey through the eyes of Mika (Julia), a young woman carrying the weight of her grief and emotional scars, and Caloy (Joshua), who enters her life at just the right moment to help her rediscover the beauty of living, loving, and being loved. At the heart of this film is the undeniable chemistry between Julia and Joshua. They don't just play characters they become Mika and Caloy. Their connection feels real, raw, and incredibly relatable, making us care about their growth, their struggles, and their journey toward each other. Caloy is not just a love interest, he’s a catalyst for Mika’s transformation, helping her learn to forgive herself, embrace her vulnerability, and see the world in a new light. What makes this film stand out is how it doesn’t focus solely on romance. It shows us that love comes in many forms it’s about learning to love ourselves first, healing from past wounds, and allowing others to help us along the way. The relationship between Mika and Caloy isn’t about perfection, it’s about acceptance, growth, and finding strength in each other. Their love isn’t just something that exists between two people it’s something that empowers them both to face their fears and move forward. The phrase “love you to the stars and back” might seem like a sweet, romantic line, but it carries so much more weight in the context of the film. It represents a love that isn’t confined by distance or time, a love that’s infinite, constant, and capable of transforming the deepest parts of us. It’s a promise that even in the darkest moments, love can still guide us toward light, hope, and healing. In the end, "Love You to the Stars and Back" is a beautiful reminder that love isn’t just about being with someone it’s about finding the courage to be vulnerable, to open yourself up to the people who care about you, and to grow alongside them. It’s about understanding that love has the power to heal us, even when we feel like we’re too broken to be fixed. It’s a journey of rediscovery, of learning how to let go of past pain, and of embracing the love that’s already around us. If you’re looking for a film that’s not just romantic but deeply meaningful, “Love You to the Stars and Back” is a must-watch. It’s a beautiful exploration of love’s ability to heal, to transform, and to bring us back to life.

Nung june, si mama nagkasakit. Nung august, ako. Nitong September, yung aso ko naman. Nakaconfine ngayon si Blanca. Torete ang isip ko. Alam mo yung randam mo talagang umiikot ung paligid mo kahit alam mong nakahiga ka lang naman. Nangyari sakin kanina. Sinabihan akong 50/50 ang chance ni Blanca makasurvive, stage 2 kidney disease. Hindi ko na alam pano ko aayusin utak ko. Parang isang pitik na lang mababaliw na ko.

Nagsusuka kasi sya non stop kahapon hanggang kaninangumaga kaya dinala ko na agad sa vet. Sana pala umuwi na ko agad after shift. Kung maaga lang sana ako umuwi, madadala ko kagad si blanca, di sana sya madedehydrate. Kaninang umaga umiiyak na ko nung lumupaypay si Blanca sa lamesa ng doctor. Hindi pumapalag. Hindi siya ganun, matapang siya pero hindi sya ganun kaninang umaga. Payat na payat, dehydrated, at namumutla. Parang gumuguho mundo ko nung sinabing kailangan siya iconfine. Mas bumigat pa pakiramdam ko nung nalaman kong magkano babayaran. Sapat lang sa budget for this month yung laman ng atm ko. Para akong mababaliw at iiyak on the spot na kinakausap ako ng doctor. Nung binigyan ako ng time makasama si Blanca habang nandun siya sa cage niya e di ko na napigilan umiyak. Ang hirap pigilan. Hanggang jeep pinipigilan ko. Di ko na din napansin na kaya ko palang lakarin yung mula sa clinic papuntang sakayan na di ko ginagawa pag nasa tamang pagiisip ako (nagtatricycle ako usually except knina).

Iniyak ko lahat kaninang tanghali pagkadating ko sa bahay. Iyak na hindi ko ginagawa pag may kasama ako sa bahay. Iyak na may tunog. Iyak na masakit pakinggan. Parang nahihilo akong di ko malaman. Iniisip ko yung mga sinabi ng doctor. Anemic si Blanca. At yung chance ng survival e nakadepende aa blood chem. Sa tanghali din na yun sinabi na lumabas na yung blood chem at 50/50 na yung chance of survival ni Blanca dhail meron syang kidney problem, stage 2 na. Para akong dinaganan ng kung anu anong maisip mong mabigat. Iniyak ko lahat kanina. Namaga na yung mga mata ko. Abnormal yung crea at bun, pati yung parameter sa liver, mataas din. Sinabihan ako na kailangan nila bigyan ng gamot si blanca. May mga nagsusurvive at nakakaraos naman daw sa ganito. Wag nga lang daw sumuka ulit si Blanca. As of 2pm, di pa naman daw sumusuka si Blanca at kinain nya yung binigay na dog food sakanya.

Pagdating ko sa clinic ng 3pm, binigyan lang kami ng 30 minutes dahil bawal daw magtagal. Pagkadating ko sa loob, umiyak nang umiyak si Blanca. Pinigilan ko lahat ng iyak ko. Halu halo nararamdaman ko nung panahon na yun. Pero masaya ako na yakap ko si Blanca nun. Para sakin, mas okay si Blanca nung hapon na yun. Siguro malaking tulong talaga sa dehydration yung swero niya. Kinausap ako nung doctor niya. Di ako makatingin sa mata dahil alam kong iiyak ako. Tinanong ko siya ulit kung pwede ko na siya iuwi kinabukasan kahit may swero, pwede naman daw. Hindi ko namalayan yung oras, pinasok na kami nung vet assistant, pwede na daw ako umalis baka daw mahuli sa cctv na nagooverstay na ko. Hindi ako ready nun. Binalik ko sa cage si Blanca. Nagbabye ako pero nagstart na siyang umiyak nung lumabas na ko ng kwartong yun. Nagstart na naman ako umiyak pagkalabas ng clinic. Alam ko nakasalubong ko pa yung doctor niBlanca pero late ko na din naisip na siya yun dahil torete nga ang utak ko.

Bukas, sana bumuti lagay niya. Sana mas okay siya. Sana maiuwi ko na siya. Sana magkapera ako para maiuwi siya. Sana.

Torete - Moira dela Torre (2017)

Moira dela Torre's version of 'Torete', which was originally sung by Moonstar 88, was one of the chart-topping songs of Billboard Philippines’ Catalog Chart in 2018, 18 years after its first release.

The cover was part of the official soundtrack for Star Cinema's romantic-comedy flick 'Love You To The Stars and Back' top-billed by then love team 'Joshlia' - Joshua Gracia and Julia Barretto.

[sunb0rn]

Agustin Alegre Montferrer - The source of Torete. 1983

[ingloriousguzio]

Sabaudità è quel tipo di “veracità” tipicamente torinese che si esprime con garbo ma in maniera decisa:

Poche linee pulite ed essenziali per creare l’immagine dell’Amico Toret (ovunque trovi un amico toret sai che sei a Turin!) che invece di spillare acqua per una volta se ne sta seduto al balcone del bar sorseggiando il suo Turin Dry Gin.

“È buono?”

“Boja Fauss!”

Descrizione allegata all’illustrazione con cui mi sono candidato per la call for artists di Artaporter in collaborazione con Affini distillerie subalpine.

La Sabauditá per me non sta nell’abusatissimo profilo della Mole Antonelliana, ne nei portici che fanno da cornice a piazza Vitto e guidano lo sguardo verso la Gran Madre.

Se c’è qualcuno su cui puoi contare a Turin quello è il toret che ti garantisce qualche chance di sopravvivenza anche se sei bloccato in un ufficio senza aria condizionata fino a ferragosto.

Per quello l’amico Toret è il compagno di bevute ideale per capire se sto Turin Dry Gin è davvero buono come dicono.

§ 3.576. La muerte de un quinqui (León Klimovsky, 1975) 

DOMINGO, 17 DE NOVIEMBRE DE 2024

 

Cine negro a la española. Una verdadera joya. No tiene la potencia, la presencia o el empaque de las obra americanas, pero tiene su gracia estilo propio, su personalidad. Una mezcla de 'fantaterror' y cine 'quinqui'. No es "Deprisa, deprisa" (Carlos Saura, 1981), tampoco "Distrito quinto" (José Luis Coll, 1957), ni tampoco es el estilo de De la Loma, con sus Toretes y sus atracos por tirones a bolsos.

Aquí se narra las desventuras de un psicópata delincuente que se queda con el botín de un atraco.

Por la estructura de la película me recuerda a "Fuga sin fin" (Richard Fleischer, 1971). No me extrañaría que, como en tantas ocasiones, la idea creativa naciese viendo una película de otro.

Me ha gustado, no es lo mejor que he visto, pero es bastante decente pare el lugar y el momento en que se rodó. Interesante este Klomovsky.
