I keep procrasting that I would updated my LJ. I told myself I will write about how I enjoyed watching last season's batch of jdrama. So here, finally, here I am. :)
I loved the following drama:
1. Zenkai Girl - I like the story of a very ambitious young lawyer who was really poor when she was young. Secondly, I get to see Ryo cry again. I love watching him cry. There's something about Ryo's crying that has enamored me. LOL
2. Ikemen Desu Ne - This one is big surprise for as I didn't think that I would love the Japanese version of You're Beautiful. Sometimes, I even think that I like this version more that the Korean version because I like the female lead's acting. Her Korean counterpart has annoyed me in some ways. Then, I didn't know that I will get to like the rest of cast. Tamamori Yuta is convincing as Ren, same with Fujigaya Taisuke as Shu!
3. IS - Otoko Demo Onna Demo Nai Sei - Saki Fukuda I think has done a very good job in her role as Haru, and I like her character. She has strong will power. Her family is so lovable, they are so big in giving emotional support to Haru.
I tried watching kdrama Thousand Days Promise because it stars Kim Rae Won, I couldn't pass the first 15 mins.! I find it overly dramatic, in an overacting way. I think it's the direction and the script. Currently, I am so excited with KBS K-drama - Man of Honor. I'm finished with episode 4. It stars my favorite Chun Jung Myung. Eversince I saw him in Fashion 70's I became a fan. Can't wait for the next episode! Anyone watching asian drama these days?

What is the nicest thing anyone has ever said to you?

An ex-boyfriend said that he can totally bring me to a fine dining restaurant, as well as to a "turo-turo" (street food area). I was happy when he said that. Also, during my college years, one student has mistaken me to a candidate in A campus beauty pageant. LOLLLL She was so sincere about it, that I can't forget it even though it was ages ago! XDD

I was about to post this entry last night, but it's kinda weird that my net was not cooperating.
Anyway, I was at the office, when my officemates suddenly tuned in to CNN. I was shocked. The earthquake and tsunami that happened in Japan is so devastating, it's so surreal that I thought this can't be true. It looked like something that would only happen in the movies. I remember all those disaster movies that I've seen. Anyway, these are the images on my NHK Channel last night. After the earthquake, there's tsunami, and then fire. All these, in one go. Can you imagine?
My heart goes to all those families who've lost their loved ones. As a fangirl, I can't help but think of the well being of all the Japanese & Korean celebrities I like/love. I hope they are all okay.

- When a compliment is not sincere it is called flattery. Why do people resort to flattery, it has an ulterior motive to gain positive points from the person who was given flattery.
- I have a keen sense of knowing how to differentiate flattery and compliment. Compliments have lasting and strong positive effects while flattery is rejected the minute it was released.
- I have this officemate of mine who's generous at giving compliments. It's nice because the way she says it, it sounds sincere. I tend to be believe that it is. She would compliment my attire from time to time, and she would say how I can match my accessories with my wardrobe for the day. There are more valuable compliments from my other officemates, but I'm too embarrassed to write it all here. LOL Anyways, no matter how shallow or small the compliment it may seems, it makes me happy. Not only it makes me happy, the positivity is such a good feeling that it inspires me to show a better self.
I can live for two months on a good compliment. ~ Mark Twain

Hi guys! Under the cut is a meme and I am tagged byjicachan. :) I am supposed to tag 8 friends, but honestly don't know who to tag because I was in a very long hiatus. Anyway, I encourage anyone reading this to do this meme if they wish to. :)
( CLICK ME )
Thanks a lot for reading. :)
Fandom snippets in my mind:
1. Taisetsu Cast is in VS Arashi! Yay!
2. Wondering if Big Bang will ever guest in KBS.
3. I'm a bit annoyed because Heechul got an eye injury because of the fans.
4. Jang Geunsuk and Kim Haneul in Korea's "Kimi Wa Petto"! Finally!!!
5. The new Ukiss member apparently has good vocals.But I can see Xander is more handsome.
6. Yonghwa's back hug to Seohyun is cute in the latest WGM episode! I just can't understand though what's the big deal about the kiss on the forehead. LOL

So I was sick 3 days (Wed thru Fri), come Saturday which is today, I suddenly didn't feel sick at all! Here's the reason why :
Okay, first thumbnail is me, trying to kiss GD, shamelessly! LOL Second, me writing a message for GDTOP Message Board. Third, that's my sister on the left, my best fandom palaishapartygirl in the middle, and me at the right.
Fourth, that's me and my sister submitting a membership application to BIG BANG PH. Last two thumbnails are examples of the freebies we got. I went home happy, we got 2 posters, stickers, etc.

It's been so many months since I last updated. I hope my LJ friends are all still here. I apologize for being a bad friend, was busy and lost an interest in blogging. But now I am back, hopefully for good, again. :) I just realized it was a waste of money not to use this journal when I paid for it! LOL Anyway, in a few days, I will read friends' entries and will try "re-connect". For the time being, I'll just write few thoughts about my fandom and RL.
1. Big Bang is back, but they are so wonderful and amazing that they deserve a separate post. *Hands Up!* XD
2. I'm super addicted to "Taisetsu na Koto wa Subete Kimi ga Oshiete Kureta". I'm so loving the storyline! This drama is making my tedious life, worth living. LOL
3. I'm a super Goguma couple stan, but ironically, I would love Yonghwa to do another drama, preferably with Park Shin Hye. Quite disappointing because this won't be happening anytime soon because of CN Blue's soon comeback.
4. I got a nice grade at my job performance appraisal. I graded myself, and my boss even made it higher! Quite frankly, it was higher than most people even with the managers.
5. I need to watch a new Korean drama. Any recommendations? Is Paradise Ranch good?
That's all for now. XD

Which one word would you use to describe yourself, and why?
First question listed was submitted by

SELFISH.
I only share with people who I truly care for.

Belated Happy Valentines to all. I just realized that I got absolutely no entry for the month of January. So I'll be writing some random stuffs that I should have written since then.
- Grateful to marszz , I finally watched "Come with the Rain". All I can say is that I close my eyes everytime there's blood. Then all I could remember is that I'm kinda jealous of the Filipino actress who's practically the female partner of Takuya Kimura in the movie. You got to watch it to know what I'm saying. LOL. Then, I'm surprised that he's got some real screen time. I didn't expect that.
- Due to the generosity of marszz again, I was able to watch Ohno Satolshi's drama called "Uta No Oniisan". I don't usually watch dramas when I don't like the actors but the initial episodes caught my attention. LOL Surprisingly I enjoyed it because one minute I was laughing then one minute I'm crying. haha It has inspired me a little because it tackled job selection and how one should love their own job. Wow I could totally relate! XD
- My favorite korean variety shows these days are Idol Maknae Rebellion (because of the maknaes of FT Island and U-Kiss. I find them funny and cute), and MBLAQ in Idol Army. I like all the members except one. LOL
- Able to watch GD's Breathe in Shine A Light con. Thanks youtube. XD We were able to find out that YG has good & skilled editors. LOL
- The series of interview articles of GD are a good PR for our boy. It shows how adorable GD is.
- I'm watching Jerry Yan and Ella in "Down with Love". All I can say is that Jerry Yan is still hot and Ella is funny. XD
- Smile, You has the most adorable couples in all the k-dramas that I have watched. So enjoyable to watch. Hilarious. Usually when I watch a k-drama I tend to lose interest after 16 episodes. I'm now on the 37th and still watching.
- I have finished watching Miura Haruma's Samurai Highschool. I like Miura Haruma, that's why. : )
- I'm watching Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge, and I think I'll continue to watch. It's been quite sometime I watched Kame. Is it just me, but he does look buff isn't he?
- Kujo Otoya (Sato Takeru) and Orihara Maya (Kichise Michiko) look good together. Everytime Maya is near Otoya, I feel jealous. LOL In the second season, I know it's kinda silly because there's no love line there. I see Sato Takeru in a different light. For the first time, I see Takeru hotter than Miura Haruma. LOL
- I watched Ohitorisama in one go yesterday. I somehow could relate with Satomi. LOL
- I watched 4minute's promo in Megamall 2 weeks ago. I didn't know that I will like their other songs, because after they released Hot Issue, I didn't bother to listen to the other songs. Also, I would like to mention that they are pretty, quite friendly and pleasant. It was never my intention to buy their cd, but I eventually did. XD
- Bought tickets for the FT Island Showcase and Super Junior Concert here in Manila. I am now broke but happy. XD
- Bought a cd of MBLAQ, Colors (Jae & Chun's), CN Blue at fangirlasia and Secret Code at a record bar in SM. XD
- I am lonely these days. I was happy for many years, single and all.. Now strangely I'm scared and lonely
because I see wrinkles and white hair.Hope everyone had a happy valentine. : )
