Mass Destruction

My Raya holiday is coming to an end in few hours time and I’ll return to KTT tonight. ~_~

To describe this 12-day holidays, the word “unproductive” sums it all. I didn’t do anything meaningful (study, do revision) that a student like me should. I planned to spend my time wisely by studying because A2 exam is just 1 month and few days ahead.

Nevertheless, I only managed to finish browsing through several biology and physics chapters. Compared with my initial “aspiration”, I really feel like a loser now. And, of course, guilty. But… everything is too late now.

That’s why people say don’t count your chickens before they are hatched! (is the sentence correct? nvm…)

So, what have I done in the previous days?

Well, I ended up being a couch potato, watching dramas one episode after another. I couldn’t help it. I was not in the mood of studying because holidays are a luxury for KTT-ians…

Below are the 2 dramas (1 Taiwanese, 1 Korean) I watched. They have been released for quite some time but due to certain reasons, I only got to watch them now.

First,

Black_and_White

  • Title: 痞子英雄 / Pi Zi Ying Xiong
  • English title: Black & White
  • Genre: Police, action
  • Episodes: 24
  • Broadcast network: PTS
  • Broadcast period: starting 2009-Apr-11 (in Taiwan I guess)

Synopsis

Pi Zi and Ying Xiong are two cops who are as different as day and night. One does nothing except for drinking coffee and living a luxurious lifestyle while waiting for information from dubious sources to crack his cases. Another believes law and justice are the pillars of society and is constantly on the street catching criminals… a little overzealously for his superior’s liking. When a case brought these two top crime solvers together, sparks fly and a little light peeks into this dark city where the nation’s President is on friendly terms with the local mafia and people are killed while drinking milkshakes…

Second,

Boys_over_Flowers_to_Air_in_Japan_from_April_12-20090210185309

  • Title: 꽃보다 남자 / Kgotboda Namja
  • Also known as: Boys Before Flowers / Boys Over Flowers (lolz)
  • Genre: Romance, comedy
  • Episodes: 25
  • Broadcast network: KBS2
  • Broadcast period: 2009-Jan-05 to 2009-Mar-31 (in Korea)
  • Synopsis

    Jan Di is an average girl whose family owns a dry cleaning store located near the luxurious and well known Shin Hwa College. Jan Di meets the four richest and most spoiled boys known as the F4. After saving a boy from jumping off the roof of Shinhwa High School, she is admitted into the school on a swimming scholarship. Jan Di tries to avoid confrontation with the F4 at all cost because she knows what happens to those that stand against them. However, when Jan Di's friend, Oh Min Ji, accidentally gets ice cream on the leader of the F4's shoes, she's forced to declare war on the leader of the F4, Goo Joon Pyo.


    And of course, they fall in love with each other, leading to a tangled mass of relationship like that in the picture below (not made by me ah). Orange lines represent love relationship, red for hatred or rivalry (I can’t read Korean language), black lines linking family members.

    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    Both dramas took me so many days to finish watching, with each episode lasting 60 +/- 10 minutes. Phew~~

    The stories are intriguing, especially Black and White. If you enjoy tears-stimulating dramas and love love stuffs, the second one is right for you. If you don’t watch dramas or find them idiotic, kindly move your mouse cursor the the top right corner of this page and click. ^.^

    Time to say goodbye
    Paesi che non ho mai
    Veduto e vissuto con te
    Adesso si li vivro.
    Con te partiro
    Su navi per mari
    Che io lo so
    No no non esistono piu
    Its time to say goodbye.

    Time to Say Goodbye by Andrea Bocelli
