girl power!

I totally remember back when the Girl Power scene exploded in America. Goodness, I was in elementary school then. Spice Girls, Britney Spears, and Xena - The GP Triumvirate (according to me). I think this movement really influenced me though. Even to this day, I can proudly admit that I am a feminist. Okay, not those crazy B's who set their brassieres to flames, but I am purely an advocate of fair rights and equal opportunity. I take serious offense to discriminatory remarks about women. No, our place is not the kitchen. Don't tell me to look at the oven clock for the time. Not funny, really. Very unnecessary.

Mi madre is also a big source of inspiration. In my eyes, she is the epitome of the independent alpha female. Self-control, patience, ability to understand anyone, hard worker, and leader in any situation. And she's been through some rough times alone. I can't stand being alone. I don't know how she did it. I won't go into details, but my mom is definitely more than worthy of much respect. And plus, she's so cute. Teehee :)

But I started this post because I was watching some performances from the SBS 가요대전 2009 today. And a good bit of girl groups did popular boy group performances. &*$!*&#?%$#@! How cool is that?!?!?!! The Korean music industry has definitely been swamped in the year two-double-oh-nine by girl groups galore. Totally epic. And I absolutely love it! Especially because a lot of the girl groups collaborated! I think it's so hot when we're working together to dominate the males, ya know? It's like these girls used these performances as a declaration of a challenge in the Battle of the Sexes! Ha ha. But don't get me wrong, I love boy groups too! Oh how I love 2PM, Big Bang, and SHINee ♥


Here are the vids of the girls doin' they thang:

This girl is so hard. I love her style, hair, voice, everything. If only I could be as talented as her. Sigh. But yeah, I am totally inspired by all this girl power. What to do with all this inspiration? Hm.

Lovingly,
