because of the twin explosions that happened in our city last thursday, and the discoveries of more bombs over the weekend, i have no choice but to stay home. we cancelled our trip to CDO and my bonding-moment with my bestfriend is also postponed. i have nothing left to do. so.. i watched DVDs and sort of had downloads-and-kpop-updates break. haha. i just use the internet now to check my mails and blogs. weee. this is another way to free myself from worries about the on-going bombings and school requirements. i am truly enjoying my break. 🙂
i am currently having a Kyle XY marathon and watched Korean movies in between. Ever since Prison Break, i’ve never been interested with other series again. i am so inlove with this show. even though it’s a Sci-Fi series, everything that they portray about life, love, friendship and family seemed so natural for me. it’s what i like most about the show. because they can all happen in real life. they show us the most perfect imperfect side of everything in the series – the Trager family, Lori-Declan and Kyle-Amanda love story, teenage life, teenage love, views about sex, child rearing, imperfections of parents and children, ups and downs of friendships, and life itself. ugh. i promised myself not to get attached too much with TV shows but i really have this tendency. this is also what happened to me during my Prison Break period. haha. and it took me a lot of time to get over the Scofield fever. well, i’m still in the middle of the second season of Kyle XY so there’s still much to find out. i’m excited. and after this i still have to finish Prison Break’s third season. actually the fourth season is airing now but i still haven’t finished the previous season because i was so busy with my studies so now’s the right time to catch up.
yup. i acually have lots of reading assignments but… i think i’ll go back studying after Christmas. i’ll just enjoy this break. i didn’t have a nice semestral break last november anyway. and besides, summer break is still approx 3.5 months away. i’m really gonna miss this.
movies/TV shows i watched over the break :
- 200 Pounds of Beauty – i love this movie!
- My Tutor Friend – Kwon Sang Woo’s really adorable!
- I’m a Cyborg but it’s Okay – i honestly didn’t understand the film. i need to watch it again.
- My Girl and I – i really love it when Cha Tae Yon’s stars in a movie. he’s really a good actor. Song Hye Kyo’s there too.
- 2008 Asia Song Festival – watched it on Arirang. well, parts of it. since we were also watching My Only Hope in ABS-CBN at the same time.
- Golden Disk Awards – i discovered a nice song from MC Mong.!
- Kyle XY – oh.. this one is love. everytime Kyle speaks… lots of quotable quotes. haha. it’s my feel-good show now.
the above list + time with my sisters + lots of time to sleep = happy me..
yeah. i’m trying to ignore the political and security issues. i’m trying hard to feel excited for Christmas which by the way is still not working. hmmm.. sometimes we run away from our troubles and worries because we want to protect ourselves from believing the hurtful reality that life can’t always be like the way we want it to be. hahahhaaa. where’d i get that?? effect of my ‘attachment’ to Kyle XY ei? dunno..
i knew that Korean dictionary will be helpful. haha. everytime i watch Korean movies, i held it beside me to help me remember some Korean words and what they mean. i’m still on with my frustration. i hope i’m making progress.
