Boys Over Flower

Finally caught up with the last few episodes of the Korean Hanadan.
Grahhhs. Even though it can be crowned the corniest drama ever, but Hanadan has to be my favourite drama of all time.
And by that I mean the whole storyline.
Individually though, Korean > Japanese > Taiwanese
m(_ _)m Matsujun!
I remember being really really really reluctant to dl the Korean version because I loved the Japanese version.
Was skeptical how would the Korean version turn out.
But I forgot for what reason, I decided to give it a shot.
And the rest is history.
I friggin' love it now.
The Japanese version is awesome, it made me laugh so hard at times and there was Matsujun which made it doubly awesome.
The Korean version though, I cried with it.
Really really really cried at the sad parts.
And no people out there who are mocking, thinking must be because someone died or have an illness or blah blah blah, the "typical" Korean storylines.
No.
I was sad for Jan Di and what happened.
Granted, it didn't fully follow the original storyline, but I am glad it didn't.
To have to watch 3 versions of exactly the same happenings, it would have been boring.
So I am really glad for the changes and they didn't take away the important parts as well.
Yups. I think people who actually like watching dramas should give this a shot.
But maybe you all should wait till it is all released, if not you will end up like me, pining for the show week after week. :/
Haha and people should stop thinking that Korean dramas are overly dramatic with all the cancer and death and whatnots.
Because that may have been the case in the past does not mean it is the case now.
Korean dramas have some pretty good works if you do bother to go watch.
Great, now everything will pale in comparison until this series ends.
DDDD:
Geum Jan Di FIGHTING! :D
SHIAWASE! :D

Happiness is,
when I crushed my notes and throw them away.
when the realisation strucks you that you have survived a year in Poly.
knowing you don't have to study for the next month.
knowing you have the freedom to choose to do something or nothing.
when you have millions of videos waiting to be watched.
eating maccha ice with no more worries.
promising yourself not to worry because what is done is done.
knowing you have the luxury to sleep in and not wake up with a jolt with the nagging worry that you have to cram more stuff into your brain.
having so many things you want to do for yourself you don't know where to start.
the sense of fulfillment when you know you have done your best this time.
:D
I am happy.
Resisted watching any of the videos I downloaded.
Resisted eating the maccha ice that has been in my fridge for 1 week.
Resisted slacking.
And I am glad I did.
At least this time I know, no matter how I did, I know I have put in effort.
Not my best, but I feel satisfied with what I did.
And now it is all up to the teachers.
If I do reach my goal this time, I will buy the Samantha Thavasa wallet and work harder next semester.
If not, I will have to work even harder next semester.
Now, it is time to run riot.
He, is my epitome of happiness.
of racing hearts and wallets

I am in love.
Yes. Truly in love.
With the most gorgeous wallet I have ever set my eyes on.
It is so plain, so simple but yet so pretty!
I was looking out for Samantha Thavasa's goods.
Like once in a while I will go to their website to look at
Kimura TakuyaxBeyonce clips whether are there any new updates.
But anyway, I googled Samantha Thavasa.
Out pops an Ebay page.
And I fell in love.
Really. I am not kidding.
The racing of heart, the total and utter raving about it, repeated looks at it.
Deciding if I should empty my S.S.F to buy it.
Yes, I am that serious about it.
I don't quite want to buy SMAP's DVD because of the sky high exchange rate, but it I can get my hands on this wallet, I will willingly pay.
DDD:
Oh my god. How.
It is really really pretty!
I used to love my Guess wallet and my stolen Anna Sui was my ichiban.
Until I set my eyes on this one.
Pffffffft.
Words cannot even begin to describe how much I love this one.
And I have not even seen the real thing.
DDDDDD:
Captain's face will fit perfectly in it. I can so see it.
I want! zomg.
study schedule
16.2.09 @ 12:34 PM
Ok. Officially, I am off for one month. :D
And 8 more days to bliss.
I can't wait, but at the same time, I can.
Because the faster my exams end, the faster they have to come.
Which is kind of, uhmm, not exactly a popluar choice.
Honestly though, I have more confidence this time round.
At least until I see my test paper. I can retain most of my Research Methods which I really have to do well in to pull my D up.
=.=
Like at least a B. Thus,
Community Services: B+
Research Methods: A/B+
Introduction to Lifespan Psychology: B+
Not too much to ask for right?
If I can remember everything well, I think I can get these scores.
:D
Or so I hope.
Monday - CSS (morning/afternoon), ILP(night)
Tuesday - CSS(morning), RMI(night)
Wednesday - ILP(morning/afternoon), RMI(night)
Thursday - ILP(morning/afternnon), RMI(night)
Friday - RMI(morning), ILP(night)
Saturday - ILP
Sunday - ILP
Monday - ILP(morning/afternoon)
And that is all the time I have left. After next Monday, that's it.
Year One will officially be over.
Crazy stuff coming up.
Johnny the old one calls him, "The pile of rat dung that spoiled the soup."
Josei Seven says him and Shizuka Kudo are going to get divorced because they have been together for 7 years, he is getting tired of her and he slept with another woman during SMAP's 2008 tour.
Whichever it is, he is my Captain.
I choose to believe in him. Maybe in the end, all the rumours are true.
But at least for me, he took responsibility for Kimura Kokomi 7 years back.
Oh and by the way, since he got married in 2000.
It is not even 7 years, it is 9 years of marriage already.
9 years eh. His last girlfriend was for 9 years too.
I wonder if he remembers.
Media should cut him some slack.
foolery

Sometimes, just sometimes, I want to escape.
Because, because, because of the people around me.
Usually it is just one.
And now it is that one.
I feel guilty for even typing this out now.
Sometimes I get miffed at the other her, but that is rare.
But this one, I feel like escaping.
I don't like wearing masks because I feel stifled in them.
But now, more and more, more and more, I lose track of myself when I am with her.
I need an escape route without hurting anyone.
And that is as easy as me getting 3.0 GPA.
Hah.
It is a grave I dug too deep and now, I can't seem to find a way out.
Just great.
Did I mention I hate pretence?
Yes? Good.
I really really do.
And liars.
That's why I hate myself with a flaming passion.
Sunny. D:
You don't know how much I can't wait for 14th as well.
I have so much to tell you.
Sometimes I wonder if Psychology is really the right route for me.
If I can't even help myself, how do I even begin to help others?
16 more days before I can stuff myself silly with Captain.
Shit. I have so little time left to study.
mai mini break
3.2.09 @ 12:13 AM
I have decided.
I will officially go on a job hiatus for the next schedule.
Like from 20th Feb to 20th March.
:D
So yes, I will be very free for dates after the 23rd.
Why do I make myself to be someone who has a lot of dates?
-.-
Ok, yes, anyway, I decided that for 1 month, I will do nothing but what I like.
Watch videos, sleep late, sleep in, read books, eat ice cream,
window shopping, gossip, date my friends, watch movies, study Japanese, fiddle with SAT, do a bit of revision, hopefully go away for a bit and maybe spa.
I kind of figured out I am the kind of person who can't enjoy totally.
Like if I indulge myself in something, I definitely have to give myself grief for it.
As in, I will feel guilty if I am too good to myself.
Am I DoM or what.
-.-
Ok, so everyone who is my friend, please date me within the time frame.
I am the free-est then.
:D nothing much to do except laze about.
It sounds really tempting.
But please do not ask me out too much, because I am not working and I still have to feed my two savings account, I am not that rich either.
In this day and this year, where recession is thriving, we must go on thrifty dates.
Till the next time we meet.
And I am done with two essays.
Teehee.
Spot my boyfriend.
So retarded.
the folly of countdowns
2.2.09 @ 9:15 AM
And so, I haven't blogged for a couple of days already.
And a couple of things happened.
Ry is officially 7 hours away from us.
I officially have 22 more days before
I can stop worrying holidays are going to come.
As if I will stop worrying.
I worry way too much.
-.-
I miss last year, where the only thing I am worrying about now is what to pack for my Japan trip.
It has been nearly a year aye.
And in between this one year, Aussie made its mark.
Which reminds me, I haven't posted a single thing about my Aussie '09.
Trust me, I really do like GC a lot.
So I do have a lot to blog about.
Which may have to wait till after the 23rd.
Because that is when my exams end and then I will have all the time in the world to do what I want.
I have half a mind to not work for a month to take a break.
Do whatever I want and hopefully take to the skies again.
:D
I think for the past few years, I have successfully managed to take the plane at least once every year?
It was China '06, Japan '07, Japan '08 and now, Aussie '09.
Ok.
Not an amazingly wide range, but still ok enough.
I want to go Bali!!!!!!!
The seas will be so pretty. >.<
BUT OK.
Whatever.
I have to wait 22 more days before I can drift off into my dreams.
For now, too many things on the agenda.
D:
Monday : Devised Drama rehearsal
Tuesday: Ethics presentation (CA2)
Wednesday : GEMS skit (CA3)
Thursday : Handing in of Report (CA3)
Friday : Handing in of Comm. Serv. report (CA2) / IDEAS presentation (CA3)

And between AND after all that, there are the semestral exams.

Why am I still procrastinating here?
