Oof

Oof

no offense but…I love water

FUCK PLEDIS

I knew it was coming, but damn…

Pledis wasted those girls’ time…

They did 2 albums as a full group and two songs as a subunit…

Before just giving up…

It’s 5am est and I should be sleeping…

There’s a fucking reason they’re only asking for male trainees and if my phone does not stop capitalizing male, imma be pissed.

I’m actually really pissed because they did NOT give a single FUCK about that group, or girl groups as a whole, do you see the shit going on with After School?

Nayoung was supposed to debut in After School and her and Kyulkyung debuted in I.O.I and did Produce 101 to drum up some support and gain some fans before their official group, their permanent group.

Roa was considered the sub-leader, she only trained for about 3 years before Pristin debuted. Pledis couldn’t even spell her name for shit because everytime she wasn’t called Roa, but rather her actual name, it was spelt a different way. Maybe that’s just romanization, but damn you couldn’t even pick one and go with it?

Yuha! stayed and I hope she’s only doing that because of her contract. She was the shortest training member of Pristin at 3 years. 3 years is probably the average of all the kpop idols someone do the math I’m an arts major not a STEM major. Can you imagine being in a group where the average training period of the group is twice as long as the average for every kpop idol out there?

According to her, Eunwoo’s dad doesn’t express himself that well, so when she debuted and he wrote her a congratulations text. He was proud of her finally achieving her dream. Again, a trainee since 2013.

Rena, y'all… she was my bias, like I would love to be best friends with this girl. 2011! She was there staring in 2011 and she tried to orginally go for TS entertainment, so maybe she has a shit company finding superpower. But anywho, 6 years before she debuted. She was on SMTM and she said she was traumatized because what happend, but she’s okay now.

Kyulkyung, I guess, said fuck this shit and she yeeted herself back to China and did a solo debut over there and everything. But 2009… 8 years working her ass off for this bullshit. She went through I.O.I. with Nayoung, as someone on reddit pointed out, the only two girls in kpop history to win Rookie of the Year twice.

Yehana was a trainee for around 4 years, she even was a backup dancer for Hoshi during a Seventeen concert. It felt like Pledis really didn’t care for her or Kyla, but more on that later, because there isn’t much about her, like looking at her profile, her and Xiyeon had been attending SOPA and that’s pretty much it. She is another member staying and again, I hope it’s to fulfill her contract.

Sungyeon did the Johnny method, she trained during the summer and did school I. America during the school year. Another girl who was there staring in 2009… Two thousand and nine…. that girl dedicated TEN YEARS of her life to this shit for Pledis just to be like “left on read… lol.” She is the third member and I hope it’s to fulfill her contract and not because Pledis has something against her.

Xiyeon trained for NINE YEARS?! SHE WAS CONSIDERED THE PRINCESS OF PLEDIS! The opening line of Wee-Woo was literally “I’m the Princess.” She was in After-School videos as a trainee, if there was a little girl in an A.S. video, it was most likely her. She was 8… eight years old when she started training, she essentially gave up her childhood because of this fuckery.

Kyla…. they just flat-out didn’t care about her. From the fucking family drama with her asshole of a brother to being called fat by people when she was far from it. A little chub constitutes death threats?! Goddamn, people are allowed to have a little thigh and some ass. For Pledis to hide Kyla behind “oh, she has a concussion” only for fans to discover she had a job at a local fair and for them to say JACKSHIT about it… that’s bullshit.

BUT WHAT WE’RE NOT GOING TO DO IS BLAME SEVENTEEN AND NU'EST! We already know they look at comments on Instagram and with Bang Chan and Felix pretty much confirming idols know about tumblr and may even have one, the only people we can blame is Pledis.

Support each and every girl as she continues on her own adventure. I’d link their instagrams and everything, but it’s ass o'crack in the morning and I should probably go back to bed.

This may be the end of Pristin, but hopefully they are all still friends and they can pull something out of their hats and do a giant fuck you to Pledis

And one more for the road…

Fuck Pledis.

My mum has six brothers. They all live in Pakistan- as does the rest of her family. I went there recently after ten years and saw them all. For the first time in my life, I believe I’ve seen true and undeniable love. All of my uncles are deeply in love with their wives, masha’Allah.

But one of my uncles in particular stood out to me. He is quiet and has a simple life; he lives in a modest home and has six children- four of whom are under the age of seven. They have goats and chickens in their courtyard, and there is constant hubbub. It took me time to realise his commitment to his wife because he is quiet and modest in that too. Slowly I realised that he never ever eats a meal without his wife. He will wait and wait and allow his food to become cold as she runs around and fusses over their children. His eldest daughter, Safiya, will often ask him to eat anyway but he refuses until his wife can eat with him because a meal is not enjoyable without her. He smiles and says ‘I’ve not eaten a roti without her for sixteen years and I don’t intend to start today’. Safiya rolls her eyes and brings her mum over then takes over whatever task her mum was doing.. but it’s evident that she has no problem doing this. The relationship her parents have is something she is very proud of and I know this because of how often she fondly spoke of it.

One night, she made me some chai over a small fire and we chatted until the early morning. She told me about her parents and how much her father values her mother. She was glowing with admiration and pride, and I couldn’t help but feel the same. Every morning before taking the children to school, he tells her mother she is as beautiful as a sparrow and every day she blushes and ushers him away- ‘jao!’ She says as she giggles. Their life is not easy though and Safiya explained to me that her mother can become silent and slow for days, unable to muster much joy. People talk about her in the village she says, but her father focuses only on his wife. In those times, he will ask his eldest children to look after the younger ones while he spends time alone with her. The two of them leave on his motorcycle, her arms wrapped tightly around him and her head resting gently on his shoulder. And then they come back and she slowly recovers.

Safiya told me many things; that she’d never ever heard her father raise his voice to her mother. That every Eid her father takes her shopping to pick a gift for her mother. That he agonises over it like it’s the first gift he’s ever gotten her. That her mother will call her husband at work every day at his lunch time, just to ensure he’d eaten. The list went on. She had a look of still contentment on her face the whole time she spoke of them. My heart surged and in my head I begged Allah to preserve and protect their love.

You know, I once read that the best thing a man can do for his children is to love their mother. But it was so significant to see the impact first hand. My cousins will know what kind of love they deserve after seeing it in their parents. It does not have to be loud and showy. It doesn’t need to be littered with big gestures.. it can be as tender and as simple as wanting to eat every possible meal together.

You can't just play with my emotions especially when I am in distress.

Too cute
