D

D stands for Diva

So this time I'm covering a girl group's dance *druuuuuuummmssss* After School's Diva !

Diva was the first song I heard from AfterSchool and srsly I just fell in love with the song, group and the clothes. Yes. The clothes. 
I think I screencapted EVERY live performance of Diva so I could use those pics to inspire my everyday look :D
They have so cute and pretty clothes on Diva's performances you guys should watch like 10 live perfs
  
Klaara totally fell in love with pics taken through a mirror :

Shoes are from H&M, 10€
Shirt is from Vailent Clothing, cost 12,50€ (sale)
Lip necklace from H&M, 5€
 Shorts are my old jeans that tore up so I cut them :D


I've wanted to do this cover for soooooo long. Since the song came out tbh. I had a hard time learning this choreography right because I actually thought that I know this but while watching the choreo again I noticed that I did some movements in wrong direction or just differently and so on.... :<


In the end I admit that I still ended up making mistakes and it definitely didn't help that there were people watching me filming and laughing at me ;; 
Especially the hip-shaking part in Bekha's rap..... You really can't help but noticing that I don't do it 100%..... I was so embarrassed since ppl were staring at me and giggling ;;

 

Few selcas before the actual promo pictures and filming ;)


In a sense this is a legendary cover because we shot this in one full shot ! I didn't do any big mistakes so we decided to go with the first cut :)


And as I told you guys, Klaara work hard filming my three new covers; BTD by Infinite, Candy by H.O.T and finally THIS COVER ♥ 


Thanks so much Klaara bby, you had to spend 7hours behind the camera and I'm really grateful that you wanted to come to film my new covers ;; ♥

C

C stands for Candy


It's time for the letter C ! (WOOPWOOP)
I already decided on covering this song right from the beginning of this ABC challenge. H.O.T is one of the legends and the original groups in kpop history, I just think that people who listen to kpop nowadays should know the origins of kpop but most of them don't. SO I wanted to share this playful and cutsie song with you guys by covering it

As some of my friends know, I sold my life to kpop already when I was in kidergarden. I lived with my grandparents and an older cousin and she was a H U G E fan of a band called g.o.d and she put their posters all over our room (yes, we shared one room). I couldn't avoid g.o.d's music anywhere and I ended up fangirling over them with my 4-year-older cousin.

I sang along g.o.d's songs, I even remembered all their lyrics and basically I grew up to like the korean pop music. I didn't even listen to the songs made for chidren. You know like Twinkle twinkle little star or stuff. I only had my g.o.d

At time I didn't really listen to the other groups since my cousin only loved g.o.d and I didn't get to get known with other groups' music. But when I grew up and moved to Finland, I became homesick and kinda relieved that i-miss-korea feeling while listening to g.o.d's songs from my CD n over internet. That's how I found Shinhwa, H.O.T, S.E.S .....

Idek how this all was related to H.O.T n Candy but yeah. I mean, groups like H.O.T created the base of kpop we listen to today and I would want people to know kpop's roots. :)

While filming there were some guys who came to disturb us by dancing in front of the camera.............. Was so annoying made me feel like I'd want to punch them...
 


Klaara said that I look like Zelo in this pic LOL


Spoiling next cover's clothes ;)
 
Done with changing !


The overall I'm wearing is Diesel's,
we bought it from an outlet during our trip in Italy ... 4years ago(?) cst about 80€
I'm wearing Klaara's white "WTF" print shirt
and the lovely and the cutest pegasos necklace is from H&M, 5€
Shoes are pinky n polkadotty Converse shoes from USA outlet
Cat's paws I bought from eBay for 5€ :)




My Sponge Bob socks are just fab
 

I found a Totoro hairstrapthingy from my drawer and thought that I could use it in this cover since the theme is "cute" and decided to tie my hair up up up



Tbh I was embarrassed to dance in this get up for so long since everyone passing by were staring and laughing at me..... ;; 
I'm turning 18 in 4 months and I'm dancing around with my hair tied up, cat paws in my hands n stuff .... :D




 TIME FOR OUR COVER 
Hope you guys liked it, I'll try to upload the cover for the letter D soon ;)

B

B stands for BTD

Finallyfinallyfinally I'm back with a new cover!
Guys I'm so sorry *bowing 10000x* since I promised to keep up with this challenge but apparently I've failed to do so (nope, just being reeeeeaaalllyyyyy slow).

But I've now filmed already 3 covers, so I reassure you guys that we'll be having more cover dances VERY SOON ;)

This time I had a hard time choosing the song, since there are seriously just waay too many good great perfect songs starting with the letter B.
I ended up picking randomly between the three songs: BTD (Infinite), Be mine (Infinite) and Be ma girl (Teen Top). And as you can see, BTD won the lottery.

BTD is THE SONG that made me fall in love with Infinite, and I'm still sunken deep down in Infinite feels

I love this song, I love this choreography, I love these boys!

Seriously guys, this song is PERFECT ♥ Tho I'm little sad since Hoya doesn't have many parts...

Learning this choreography didn't take as much time as I had expected. I practised for like 1~2 days, 6 hours per day. Actually there's a behind story for this:

My mom wanted me to go to the store to buy some spring onions, but I declined since I hate cold and snow because it wets everything when it melts. So my mom got angry at me and told me that I won't have anything to eat for lunch, if I don't go to the store. And I said I'dd prefer jumping around in the garage than going out and having to touch the snow.
Basically my mom got angry at me (which is understandable, but I do hate cold n winter A LOT) and told me that I have to skip dinner too. I agreed skipping on lunch and dinner but I was sooo mad at her that I decided to calm myself down and reveal my stress by dancing.
Opened the computer, searched for the BTD's mirror version, started dancing.
I had the whole day for dancing which was really nice even tho I didn't eat at all. Tho I don't feel the hunger when I do smth I love, so tbh dancing didn't make me hungry at all, felt just relaxed.

The skorpion-move was difficult at first and one of the problems where that there's just no space to do the skorpion in our house. I did learn how to do it, but it sucks in the cover...... I was practising 2hours non-stop before the filming and my arms just lost all their strenght .... :D So in the video I really really really tried to push myself up, but just couldn't. Sorry for that.

Playing around before the filming
I got my leggings and shoes from H&M, both of them cost 10€
The shirt is my stepfather's old shirt. I just studded the upper part of the pocket :)
DIY all the way

 We filmed for over 6 hours................... Was so exhausting :D
 
 Getting ready :)

AND again my lovely Klaara came to film my covers (as I said, I have 3 of them ;) )
Ready to go!



Finally the cover video itself

A

A stands for AB City

New challenge, new A!
So this time my challenge's theme is cover dance. Basically means that I'll be dancing and uploading one cover for each letter every week. I hope you guys won't get bored tho :D I'll try my best to improve my dancing skills so this challenge would be an eyecandy for you guys too!

Finally finally FINALLY, I managed to get photos and videos from Klaara and now I can proudly (? Dream on, Ennu) share my cover with you

I chose to make a cover of Ab City, coz' the AlphaBAT boys caught my eye with their London Boy ad. I really loved it and I thought that these boys are worth my attention :D
I do admit that first I was kinda dumbfounded with the song. I mean the ABCDEFG-part was just R I D I C U L O U S. I was a bit dissapointed with the song but as I kept listening to it I suddenly started to like it. A LOT. And I have to tell you guys that in the end I found the ABCDEFG-part just too adorable ♥.
It was hard to learn the choreography since at the time when I was practising for this cover, there were only 2 AB City's live performances. So I just tried to copy and mirror the choreography from those live perf.s. I did make up my own dance moves for some parts because I couldn't see what they were really doing so please forgive me for the mistakes and if  the cover is not 100% same as the original dance.

I asked our member, Klaara, if she could take couple of photos and rec this cover for me and she said OFC right away She was soooo lovely and helpful on the set. I made many mistakes and we had to retake lots of times but she didn't care ;; ♥ Thanks bby for coming all the way just to film one video.


Since I find that only video might be boring, I'll just upload LOADS of pictures :D (Help yourself) 
And as the outfit:
I ordered those shoes during the summer from Ebay. Didn't cost a lot, maybe 20$, the harem pants I got from a sale (LOL trying to live cheap) two years ago (?) From H&M. And they're actually kids' pants :D Nice thing 'bout beeing short (Y)
The print of my shirt I did myself with canvas paint. And the shirt is the cheapest black T-shirt I managed to find. 

Klaara took photos also when I was practising:

Because you're worth it


 The actual stuff
 
Aaaaand
 Ready to dance!

You can check the cover video out from here



We'll end this with:

 Super Swaggy gif (Y)

Thanks guys for reading and watching :) Hope you liked it! 
More coming next week, stay tuned!
