I would like to share my biggest obsession right now. It's one of the reason I stopped posting. They have taken over. Not in a bad way. I'm just bad at managing my time. This year I'm going to try to manage my time better. Any who I love this group that I accidently found. They are called Epithymia. They are a 5 member predebut Japanese dance and vocal group. They showed up on my tiktok fyp. At first I just scrolled past, but they kept showing up. I sadly don't remember what made me click on them, but I'm glad I did. They are amazing. They do Kpop dance covers and sing. They are so good! They spend a lot of time with their fans too. They do a live about once every day. It's really fun to watch. They read your comments and take requests. I've managed to get them to do Good Boy Gone Bad by TXT first 12 different times. One reason they are so amazing is because they know their fans. One fan doesn't even say her request by name anymore. They already know what she wants. It's really fun communicating with them and watching them dance and listen to them sing. If you like Kpop I highly recommend you check them out. Click here for their Tiktok page.
I spend pretty much everyday with them. If you become a subscriber they call you by name. I've been watching since the end of August and subscribed in October. They know me pretty well. I have a moot who also follows and watches them and I got her to tell Rei my bias hi for me because I had to work and Rei's response was Fighting! Because he knew the only reason I'm not there is because of work. She didn't even mention work. It made me so happy to know that he already knew where I was. I've even taught them some English. I taught them the word slide and now Rei is known as sliding King Rei. Because he loves to slide and we love to watch him slide. My 2nd tiktok account is called slidingkingRei. I use that account to record the lives without all my commenting, because I upload the lives to youtube. So if you are curious you can check those out here. But I highly recommend you watch an actual live. It's a lot of fun and all the fans are nice. Our fandom name is Hope. I've also taught them the word sleeve. Because I like when they roll their sleeves. I asked them to do it all the time. So much so, that when one member was doing a solo live and saw that I was in the live he said hello and pulled down his sleeve as he said sleeve. LOL! I didn't even ask yet. It's amazing how well they know their fans. You never know what you are going to get in the live and I love it so much. They have really made a difference in my life. Not just the not posting. That was mostly me not managing my time and all the other stuff I had going on. Epithymia actually had a part in helping me make a tough decision. Not only that I have seen a change in my personality. My MBTI is ISFJ. Which means I'm an introvert. During this time that I've been with Epithymia I started a new job. I don't remember how this got brought up at work, but I mentioned being an introvert and my coworker told me I'm not an introvert I'm just selective on who I talk to. I have never not be thought as an introvert. I couldn't believe someone actually thinks I'm not one. I think watching Epithymia grow out of their shell has helped me grow somewhat out of mine too. They truly are an amazing group and I hope you check them out. They will have an original song come out in May. For now you can watch their covers of other songs on their Youtube channel. Click here. They got some good videos up too. Sadly no English subs yet, but in the lives they speak a lot of English. So don't worry about that. If you check them out please let me know what you think and if you join a live feel free to say Hi to me. My user name is loafycakes44 and Epithymia calls me E. I would love to know you are there. Well there's my small rant about Epithymia. I'm sure there will be more from me. I hope you enjoy. Have a blessed day!

My latest obsession is Monsta X, so I thought I would share my journey with them, 'cause I find it interesting. You can be the judge and tell me if you think it's interesting or not.
So my first introduction into Monsta X was a meme showing the group in their harnesses versus other kpop groups with their boyish concepts. I sadly can't find that meme now, because this was back in like 2019. I thought that meme was funny and I love Monsta X's style better then the boyish one. So, one day my husband was going to go out with his brother that meant I was home alone. Instead of doing chores or something like that I decided to learn about Monsta X because I loved the outfits I've seen. I kid you not I spent like 3 to 4 hours just watching Monsta X content. I watched their show and their mvs and fan edits. I fell in love right away. I love how more mature their concepts are and those outfits. Monsta X has an amazing stylist. Even though I love the group and songs I didn't collect Monsta X 'cause I was still trying to control how many groups I bought for. Fast forward to 2022 I find a predebut Japanese group called Epithymia and some of the members are monbebes. So sometimes they would dance Monsta X songs. I fell in love with how they danced Shoot out and Shoot out is one of my favorite Monsta X songs. I started request that song all the time. So much so that one member said his favorite Monsta X song is Alligator, so I took the opportunity to say mine was Shoot Out and his response was "I know, because you request it all the time". I was shocked they know me so well. Because another time I asked if he knew why I always request Melody B out of A-D and he said 'I don't know' the other member next to him sat and thought about it smiled and said "Love Killa". I was shocked because he was right. Any who since they are monbebes they do a lot of Monsta X songs. Which made me listen to Monsta X even more. Then Monsta X's teasers started to come out for Reason and I loved the outfits so much. Then Beautiful Lair is such a good song that when I went to the kpop store I bought Monsta X's new album just because I love the outfits so much.... I told my sister I wouldn't be surprised if Monsta X turns out to be one of my most listened to groups this year and already my first last.fm report I looked at Monsta X is number one lol. Lets see if I call it. So, yeah that's my journey with Monsta X. Looked into them just because of the outfits and then my love for them got magnified because of a Japanese group of all things. If you are a Monbebe how did you become one? Also you should check out Epithymia they are amazing. I will be posting about them soon. Epithymia's Tiktok I wasn't sure where to put this, but I wanted to share how crazy I am. April of last year was a start of new things for me. April 9th, 2021. I started keeping track of my Spotify stats and today of last year April 23rd, 2021. I started a new obsession. That was the start of Enhypen being in my top 5 artists on Spotify. I just checked my old posts of my Spotify stats back to April 2021 and Enhypen has been in my top 5 for a year now. It is now April 23, 2022 and they are still in my top 5. Usually number 1. There were some times where they weren't number one, but they have always been in my top 5. I know my latest Spotify stats is only up to the 21st, but I want to post this on the 23rd, since this is kind of the start. Plus it's Jakehoon day so I feel it is fitting. Feel free to go back through my posts and you will see they are always there. Here is a screen shot from my April 23rd - 29th, 2021 post. Back then I was originally just keeping track on paper, but then in May I decided to post my stats. So I posted all the ones I had written so far. That's why it's posted late. I'm glad I decided to start posting it here. I hope you like it as well. Here is a screenshot of my last.fm account on Enhypen's page. Since 2020 I have listened to Enhypen songs 7,203 times. Now keep in mind this is on Spotify only and per track. I also listened to them on youtube with mv's and stage performance and I listen to them with the physical CD in my car. Yes I actually play the discs. I can't wait to see my report from Spotify at the end of the year. I think this obsession is here to stay. Since it's Jakehoon day enjoy this gif of Jakehoon. They are my favorite friendship in Enhypen. They are my bias and bias wrecker after all.

Seventeen - Your Choice - Total listens : 11 I knew about the show I-land, but I didn't know anything about it. I sadly decided to skip it because I watched Produce x 101 and got into too many groups from that. I said I'd just wait for who gets picked and follow from there. I didn't want to get attached to someone who didn't make it. I watched Enhypens first teaser and really liked it. Vampire concept is my absolute favorite. I watched Given-Taken after it came out. I even made a reaction video. I fell in love with that song and music video so much. I picked out three members who stood out to me. Sunoo, Jake and Sunghoon. I have a behind for this though that I didn't mention in the video. I liked Sunghoon the most. The scene with his eye and the red blood part made me fall for him. I didn't want to pick a bias in just one video though. I wanted to see what they were all like. So, I picked out three who stood out to me. I started to watch their content on youtube. By time the Let Me In music video came out Sunghoon was already my bias. I sadly don't think I wrote down the date anywhere.
I really liked the album. So, when they were having a comeback, I was excited. I didn't fully follow all the updates for it though. Once Drunk-Dazed came out I fell in love again. I absolutely love that music video and song. In 5 months, I have listened to that song 285 times on Spotify. That does not count how many times I've watched the music video and other videos of that song. Unfortunately, Youtube doesn't keep count, but just on all the different versions I watched I had watched Drunk-Dazed 40 times in the first week. So, there's no telling how many times I have actually heard that song. I really like the whole album and I found out Target was going to sell it, so once it came out, I went and got me one. I was eating up a lot of Enhypen content. Watching Enhypen&Hi, Vlives, and ect. Since I was liking Enhypen so much I decided to watch I-land. Turns out I really should have watched it when it aired because Sunghoon was my favorite on the show. I will forever regret not watching that live. About a month or two later I went to visit my family. So, I had my sister watch I-land. It was after all coming up on their anniversary. To my surprise my mom and dad also watched some of it. My dad knew Sunoo would be in it. While in Texas visiting my family, I went to kpop stores and ended up buying both versions of Border: Day One, En- Connect DVD, an Enhypen photocard holder, and my parents bought me the Enhypen Ggu Ggu Package for my birthday. I spent a lot of money on just Enhypen. On September 18th I-lands anniversary of announcing who would debut I final faced facts and said Sunghoon has taken over as my ultimate bias. On August 18th, 2021 I took a screen shot of my Chemibeat on Vlive for Enhypen I was 99,000 out of 2,413,031. Had 15 lives, 75 videos, & 43 visits. On September 22, 2021 I was 27,089 out of 2,755,692. With 16 lives, 232 videos, & 91 visits. Unfortunately, they usually go live when I'm either asleep or at work, but I still enjoy watching the afterwards. I have them play in the background a lot. Like right now as I’m typing this, I have one playing on the tv. I'm super excited for their full-length album and with this album I'm going to decide if they are replacing my ultimate group or not. Based on how I've been lately I think it's very highly likely that they will. I just don't wanna say it too quickly. I don't like being wishy washy. In conclusion I just wanted to keep a record of my journey with Enhypen. Feel free to tell me yours. 안녕! week one:ONEUS – “LIT” PURPLEBECK – “Dream Line” Fin.K.L – “Like The Song Remains” J-HOPE ft.
