I WANT TO GO TO KOREA.
I WANT TO GO TO KOREA.
I WANT TO GO TO KOREA.

i hope my mom is free and rich to go KOREA ASAP ASAP ASAP. i need another break. away from this stupid place. i hope my mom will bring me somewhere new this holiday. travelling with mom is quite tiring, she likes to go to unorthodox places (like the estates in hk) and we had to walk alot - alot. and i don't like shenzhen, they keep engaging in selling techniques but too bad i am a die-hard hard-sell customer. by the way, the mall at sz looks exactly like maboonkong!!! my legs are sore and aching. i didn't do alot of shopping (no bags, no wallets, no slippers, no watch ):) but i found a new shopping place in mongkok which is actually like siam square. i am quite tired after the trip - hey, i'm supposed to feel refreshed, no? and i feel fat - i ate ALOT.

travelling is addictive.

KOREA KOREA KOREA. meanwhile, i'm rewatching lip AGAIN.

i need a massage, a manicure, a pedicure, and lots of love.

in many things that i do, i find myself quite an extremist.

i watched M:I3 yesterday. i've never watched any M:Is before but it left a rather good impression although there was plenty of unrealism. it was packed with fast stunts and of course a predictable ending but it did make me hold my breath on several occasions. i wouldn't mind watching the next instalment but i won't make it a point either.

meanwhile, i'm watching lip again! i don't like the ending but it's a good show overall!

i thought it was very realistic and we easily relate to it. at the same time, you wish it would happen to you (but you still know it won't no matter how many coins you throw into the fountain). the leads (Park Shin Yang & Kim Jung Eun) are so outstanding sometimes you forget you're watching a show, because they don't look like they're filming at all with their every single expression so natural. the supporting actor, Lee Dong Gun doesn't pale in comparison either. he fares the best in the later parts of the show with him at his most vulnerable. not to forget the little boy who acted as Tae-Young's cousin, i think he is a born actor. i've seen him in other drama as well, and he has brilliant acting skills for a child his age. this serial will make you laugh and squeal, sometimes shed a tear or two (but it's not weepy, trust me on this.), other times get mad at the cunning characters, it's worth it.

i feel like going korea, with somebody. i don't fancy packaged tours but i can't read korean. :(

now when you have all the time in the world...
you have nothing to do.

life life life lives by murphy's law.

bother. and i am not even excited about going hk.

i need to get to know myself in-depth and see what really drives me.

i hope access to this blog will be easier from now.
:)
tonight i will burn midnight oil in watching LIP.
i am involved in hallyu (loosely translated as: han liu -韩流 a.k.a korean wave) but i'm not lamenting. korean flicks are really good!

having something to look forward to (no matter how no-life-ish it may seem to others) serves a purpose in life. when you're tired of leading a pointless life, find something you like to do, it makes you a better person. pseudo-reality allows me to indulge in temporary fantasies that can never emerge in real life.

movies, serials, books have plots that are all nothing to shout about. they are just an outlet to feed the hungry spirits in us, whether are they hungry for love, sadness, sex, security, etc.

and i am in fantasy.

my bloody paper is screwed - (now this is real reality...)

gotta learn how to wipe those tears yourself.
nobody's going to help you all the time.

i am only an ordinary girl, who loves a man. his riches, his prestige, his family, are only a small part that he has. it is him whom i love.

there is this particular scene...

somehow accidentally, she finds herself at a party meant for the higher-class. she is extremely underdressed, compared with all the socialites.

her boyfriend is also at the party. she bumps into a man, her boyfriend's rival for many years since high school. the awful man finds her attractive but she rejects all advances.

then she meets the group where the awful man and her boyfriend are. the awful man is unaware of the relationship. he meets her again and talks to her and even puts her arms around her. she shakes away his hands but he does it again.

the boyfriend is confused and upset. he asks him to take away his hands in a cordial manner. but he refuses and continues to admire her. the boyfriend flares up and overturns tables and punches the awful man at a SOCIALITE party. he screams: get your dirty hands off my woman! all is chaotic and the boyfriend pulls her away into the lobby.

he shouts at his girlfriend for not being able to self-defend. and for not rejecting his advances and protecting herself. he hollers: why couldn't you have pointed to me and said i am his girlfriend!

she trembles and cries: i am not dressed properly, i thought he was your friend. i couldn't make things difficult for you, i'm in no position to say i'm your girlfriend. what could i do?

and then he grabs her...


i hope you get the rough picture.

lalala...

2 long reasons why i am worried about my goddamned paper tomorrow (i really feel as though my exams have finished - i am so damned screwed):

1. i am EXTREMELY addicted to lovers in paris (yes! i'm still on the same topic!) and have been sleeping way past 3am in the morning. it's not as if i want to keep watching but the plot works in such a way you just have to continue watching the next disc (i'm sure you know what i mean)! furthermore, when you have a companion who is just as crazy as you are, both of you just can't bear to press the stop button. -----> sleeping late means waking up late which means i haven't been studying at all for that bloooooody paper. which also means i am rather worried i will have nothing to write at 5fuckingpm tomorrow.

2. mom and i are leaving singapore for hk in the wee hours of the morning this weekend, and i can't wait. :) we'd actually wanted to go korea but my mom couldn't take any more days of leave. :( i don't know if there are new places to go so if anyone has any suggestions please let me know! thanks.
