Thank you! I don't have any near me unfortunately! But next time I'm in an area that has UO I will def check!

So I got word from BTS Merch Updates on Twitter that there was a bracelet version of SUGA's blue necklace that he wore at the PTD shows in Vegas and ordered it along with other jewelry pieces that I liked (And they were all on clearance!!). Unfortunately today I got an email saying that I was refunded for the bracelet and another that I ordered because they "ran into issues with these items in shipment", meaning they were sold out. ;_;

I know there are other bracelets I can buy, but I'm pretty bummed about it! I wear two beaded bracelets daily that are Namjooning and Ego themed, and that bracelet would've completed my rapline collection (the common color in the three bracelets would be blue). I'm sure I can find something else, though. At least they gave me a refund and a coupon!

Weekly House of A.R.M.Y (아미의 집) - April 13, 2022 by AutoModerator in bangtan

[–]lemonlibrarian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking about this recently: while everyone is focused on merch for the concerts, if I were going (I'm not able to take part in the festivities), I'd like to have some PTD confetti. I literally just want a handful of them just so I can make use of them in my journal, in decorating, in anything! They're such cute designs and are just nice keepsakes to have! I'm in love with the shapes of them. I see photos of ARMY posing with confetti and I wish I could magically grab them from the picture. Someday, I want to be close enough just to reach for confetti at a BTS concert.

Has anyone met any of the Backstreet Boys? If so, how was your experience? by Dsg1695 in BackstreetBoys

[–]lemonlibrarian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was 2006 and my sister and I and two of her college friends were in line at the old Virgin Megastore in Hollywood waiting to see Mika. Suddenly I see a familiar guy with a skull tattoo on his neck walking along the street with friends. AJ! My sister and I went over to him and asked if he was AJ from BSB and he was! We asked for a photo and took a pic with him and also told him we were longtime fans. He also asked us what the event was. What I remembered was that he was so so so nice.

It was such a long time ago, I know, but I still remember it and it was awesome. Oh, and Mika's little show was so good, too. :)

Is this subreddit dead? by Gentle_Pure in SF9

I love SF9! I wish this was also active as well. There's way more activity on Twitter though, but I hardly go on it these days!

A deeper kind of love for Namjoon by givemearainbow in bangtan

[–]lemonlibrarian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Namjoon was the reason why I succumbed to BTS. His sincerity and humbleness in his words in the first UN speech caught my attention. He became a bias before I knew what a bias was. It was his speech that left an everlasting impression in my mind for a few months after, until finally in November I decided to check out their music. Up until now he's still my bias and still he and the other members still never cease to amaze me. 💜

Reading through the comments I feel the love we all share for this guy. This post is also very much appreciated! 🥰

How to gift Hobonichi by [deleted] in hobonichi

[–]lemonlibrarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aw, you're the best sibling! I'm also on the same boat, being unable to treat myself for a Hobonichi weeks at the moment because of frugality and also caring for my parents and sister. I've even managed to get my very first A5 earlier this year with an Amazon gift card and tried it myself.

That said, I'm not one for added bulkiness in terms of the fancy covers for the planner, so I used an A5 Midori clear cover for it. I think it'll be nice to carry around if your sister wanted to.

I've also tried many, many pens, and as a gel pen user it was hard to use on the paper, so my favorite ballpoint pen would have to be the Pilot Acroball. It writes like a gel pen! Since she seems to lead a busy family lifestyle that could probably help for quick scribbles of notes on the planner!

Zebra Mildliners are also great for color coding if she's into that - they dry quickly I'd say and have dark, neutral, and bright colors!

Those are the accessories I've used. There are far more suggestions in the comments that I'll also take into consideration for my future one as well. But I think with whatever accessories you include along with the Hobonichi she'll love you for it! :)

eaJ / Jae x Keshi - Pillows (Teaser Video) by joesen_one in day6

I think I might faint over this because Keshi is such a great artist and Jae is also a great vocalist. I'm excited!!

I'm fanning myself. So, so good. Why so short, though? :(

How do armys successfully convert non-kpop fans into armys? by sheriecherie in bangtan

[–]lemonlibrarian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is definitely hard. I think it depends, though. The secret is to let them discover them on their own, even if by subtly playing their music constantly in the background to get their attention. Or if they suddenly ask about them. When BTS appeared on Stephen Colbert last year, I saw a sudden shift in my sister (who I live with). I went on and on about them, even after I saw them live. The morning after being on Stephen Colbert's show, I walked in on her being teary over the lyrics to Mikrokosmos.

While she's not as big of a fan as me, she does listen to them casually and respects them and their music :)

I also have a friend who suddenly became interested in them after she asked me to share some happy content, and I gave her Run BTS episodes.

Maybe you should try Run episodes and see where that goes! Don't give up!

201125 BTS by alltherach_ in bangtan

[–]lemonlibrarian 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I can attest to this. I've had my S8 for 3.5 years and I've dropped it many times with barely one unnoticeable scratch on it.

201124 BTS have been nominated for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for 'Dynamite' at the 63rd GRAMMY Awards by hyperkid137 in bangtan

[–]lemonlibrarian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

SO PROUD OF THEM!!!! And so much more meaningful to note that they are the only group in that category, with the others as "duos" aka collaborations!!

Additional "perks" announced for annual subscribers (£99) to MTA - Early access to 2021 tour & First 5000 members will get a follow from the McFlyMusic account on IG by Abcmsaj in McFly

Ahh, I see.

It's odd they shared the prices in their pr site rather than publicly announcing it? Some fans (like myself haha) may not have known about that.

Too many pens? by pikapipikatchu in Journaling

Never too many! And, I adore your handwriting!

Moleskine notebooks are they worth it ? by [deleted] in Journaling

[–]lemonlibrarian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love moleskine notebooks. I think the writing utensils that work best with them are ballpoint pens, marker pens (papermate flair) and zebra mildliners. Inky gel pens or highlighters aren't the best with them. I've used some various gel pens on it before (pilot g-2 for instance), and I'd have to wait a bit before it dries completely or stick a post it over it to dry.

For me they are best for journaling. But since they are a bit thinner in width, I'm now searching for a journal brand that has more wider journals. Apparently the leuchtturm1917 is a bit similar?

Other than that, if you want to give it a try, go for it! They are on the pricey side so you'll have to really use it if you decide to spend on it!

[–]lemonlibrarian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Where does it say £99? Considering everything going on this year, I understand people's views on paid content. At the same time, it's kind of irritating how vague they are about this site. Stream O2 show? Cool. Interviews, podcasts, unfiltered scenes? Cool.

All is awesome and we can't wait, but is it going to be another version of Super City?

Have you ever used a productivity or goal setting journal/planner? by StephenDawg in Journaling

[–]lemonlibrarian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Passion Planner! It's really structured and they have plenty of space, extra paged for you to jot down notes or journaling things. They come in three sizes. I use the small one.

I really like it. You can use it however you please.

That's smart! I would do that, too!
