Special post dedicated to The Kollaboration Staff next… They are my HOMIES!!! They bought me a personalized Kollaboration pinstripe Baseball Jersey with my name on the back! MUCH LOVE!!!
but first…
Here’s to my Seoul-mate!
& my future Lifetime Roommate
Tam, you don’t have to change your last name being with me… =)
In his time…
In his time…
He makes all things beautiful in His time
Everything is His plan
And I just don’t understand
How I bum like me could land
A girl like Tam…
A girl like you…
Is a gong ju…
You’re a gong ju without the byung
How did I get you
A girl so fine yet down to earth
I’ve experienced rebirth
Of my heart and I’m not worth
A girl like you…
Can’t take my eyes off of you…
All in
The first time I saw her
She was lookin around for her friends
And I just went up to her
And I said are… you lookin for me
She rolled her eyes and then
Pretended not to hear
Oh, but something bout the beauty of her face
Covered my disgrace-ful
Intro to my name
Before I knew it, I was askin
If she had a boyfriend…
She said straight up no… YES!
So I asked her for her digits fo sho…
Ahhh yeah.
50 first dates…a hundred emails,
A thousand calls n’ four years later…
She’s my girl and now I want it on paper
Cause I found my Seoul-mate
We can talk about anything
From hip hop, God, n’ politics and what is love?
Oh… I found that you’re more beautiful inside
I don’t have much but I’m all in
Come on lets do this
You and I can change the world
Cause we see to eye to eye
That when things are wrong
You gotta make it right…
*I want to be with you for life
You are the one for me
I’ll be your kimchi and your spice
I’ll be your kalbi
Oh we’ll always stick together
Like rice…
For life…
You’re my queen
You’re my gong ju, but without the byung
And I’m your wangja… with the byung
I’m goin to treat you right… gonna take you travelin
we’re gonna go everywhere
we’ll keep each other’s hearts young…
*I want to be with you for life
You are the one for me
I’ll be your kimchi and your spice
I’ll be your kalbi
Oh I always want you by my side…
You and I
Cause You and I both want
To adopt our own baby, Baby
And you and I will make a difference
We will raise awareness for
You’ve opened my mind…
to woman’s rights and I’m not always right,
you’ve made me a better person
And for me there’s nothing worse than when you are hurting…
I love the way you eat cheerios
You pour the milk first
And then pour the cereal
A little bit at a time
I love the-way you-always offer to pay
You’re not into the money
And you actually pay for me
A little bit at a time
I am so glad you’re mine
I found my gold mine
In you, you’re beautiful inside
it makes your outside
that much more fine
And I fell in love with your mind
I love who I am when I’m with you
I always laugh when I am with you
When I am with you, that’s all that matters
Is that I’m with you…
I can’t imagine life without you…
He makes all things beautiful in His time
Everything is His plan
And I just don’t understand
How I bum like me could land
A girl like you

and for everyone who was asking… Tammy had NO IDEA. She had no idea I was even singing a song for her. It was one of the HAPPIEST moments of my life when she said YES. My hands were shaking for a long time after the proposal. She makes me a better person and we are going to make a huge positive impact on this world together. The good times are just beginning!
_____________________________________________________
ONE FULL WEEK OF RECOVERY.
ONLY THE KOLLAB STAFF KNOWS HOW CRAZY IT IS PREPARING FOR KOLLABORATION. The Show takes MONTHS to prepare with a dedicated staff and I get 4 hours of sleep every night for 4 weeks preceding the show.
ALSO, the process of preparing to propose is INSANE! Its A LOT of work from saving funds, getting the ring sized without Tam knowing (special thanks to Tam’s sister Carol!), getting the perfect ring, getting permission from parents on both sides, telling family and close friends to KEEP IT A SECRET!, and going through every emotion existence…
but in the end, ITS ALL WORTH IT!!!
Thanks for all the CONGRATULATION MESSAGES EVERYONE!!! Tammy and I appreciate it MUCH!
From CHRISTINE SEJIN’s PAGE
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE NEWLY ENGAGED COUPLE – PK AND TAMMY! What an awesome and crazy proposal!!
Coming down Wilshire, you might’ve seen this:
And maybe three crazy chicas running a muck across the street.
Nancy, Rina, Jasyn, Eric (a performer)
Me, Min, Rina, and Crystal (As One)
Janny talking about important stuff with Rara and one of the performer PA’s. Who is that guy in the back?
I like this shot cause the people in the back are in the spotlight and PK and Roy look like they are thinking “Hmm so what are we going to do?” with their hands on their hips.
I got my IDOL 2 cd signed by CHOI HYUK JOON (Glen Choi). Hahaha. That CD is sooo old.
Me, Rina, and Sandy at Bohemian. I didn’t think I was in the picture, so I was looking somewhere else. It looks like I got a headache.
Me, Sung Kang (Better Luck Tomorrow), Rina – look how he’s leaning closer to me than Rina!
Ken and me – awesome performance at Kollaboration All Stars!
DJ Glen workin’ it.
Me and the Kollaboration Boys (okay fine…men) aka my bosses. What are those fingers doing? And Rara just had to ruin the picture!! JK!
Who wants to buy Kollaboration gear?? As One has one…so does Grace Park…why not YOU?
THANK YOU TO ALL THOSE WHO CAME OUT! We’ll actually be back THIS FALL for Kollaboration VI!!
