Life these days...

Posted in: ~Tuesday Posts | 2008 posts | Cringy Teenage Years | Life | Personal Thoughts

Blabbers #2
I miss school life. Somewhat. *makes a thinking face* I think.

My siblings are having their exams these few weeks... I [mostly] am worried about my brother who is in Form 2. He doesn't seem to like school. I like school. It's a bliss to be able to go to school. Knowledge is power. Anyway, back to my brother... Okay, I think he's more interested in other kind of knowledge. Who wouldn't think so? He's always on the computer before and after going to school. It's rare to see him studying or do his homework. Yeah. Maybe he's doing it secretly and I shouldn't assume things...but when something bugs me, it will always bugs me if it hasn't been solved. So I'm a busybody! Try stopping me then! Okay... back to the topic (again).. I'll understand if he isn't interested in studying but.. I hope he manage to finish at least till SPM level. He said he wants to open a computer shop. I secretly think that if he wants to be a good one he should take a degree in computer-related courses. (Of course I don't know the details, it's only my 2 cents.) That means he should be in science stream then. Now. He doesn't even seem interested to do well in PMR (I'm assuming again.) How could he possibly enter science stream??? But to think of it, economy stream is quite suitable too. *STOP!*

Saying all these aren't going to change anything if he still slacks in his studies.


My sister... I think she's going to be alright. I didn't have the privilege to ask anyone close during my f4/f5 aka "Black Years"... So I'm going to be that person to her. Sort of. Most of the time, I just give her some advice and gives her the impression that it's okay to not be perfect. I want to help her cope with her f4/f5 years so that she'll not end up like me. Even now, I still avoid thinking about the me at that time. I don't even remember much about those days.



Huh... just another thought in blabber format.

(My) Labels explained

Posted in: ~Tuesday Posts | 2008 posts | blog | blog images | Cringy Teenage Years



last updated: Nov 19th, 2024
# Miscellaneous :
blog
What more can it be about? Any posts that is blog-related (like this one) are under here. "b" is not capitalized because I don't consider this label as important as the other labels I made.

blog images
Since the Photobucket Apocalypse (and extra thanks to my procrastination *BIG SIGH* for finally cleaning up the mess in my blog in the year 2019), I'm going to label any posts with images with this to make them easier to find.

Old Blog
Chosen posts from my old blog that are reposted to this new blog.

online quiz
Posts on (or contained) results I got from online quizzes I'd taken.

Reviews
Link to a separate blog for my reviews. Also posts with short (and maybe one-shot) reviews on anything.

Quotes
Posts that include quotes (with sources). I'm still thinking if I should include the ones where I quote my old posts or not (most probably not).

Translated
Posts that included things I'd translated or romanized...

---
# Events :
1st Post
1st Post refers to first post posted in this blog and also posts that were posted on the first day of a month. May also include the first day of the year and my birthday.

Birthday
Posts mentioning birthdays or "How was my birthday?" posts.

Death
Erm... I don't feel like describing this.

Exam, Exam {Semester?}, Piano Exam
Exam-related posts. About preparations done or my exam experiences.

NaBloPoMo
Posts done on a NaBloPoMo month.

Shopping Bag
A label where I can rant about what I shopped online... or off-line.

Weddings
Posts with Wedding stories or my thoughts on it.

---
# Knowledge :
Courses
Posts related to courses I'm taking or I'd taken in university.

Form 6
I chose Form 6 over 2 years matriculation and UPU offer (Computer Science)... This label must exists. Posts under this are my stories, experiences, thoughts etc during my Form 6 days.

Learning French Language
I'm learning French at my university. Learning a new language is fun and special so it deserves a label of its own.

Learning to Drive
Posts labeled with this talked about adventures in obtaining my driving licence.

Piano
I've started learning to play the piano again since year 2008. Any posts with this label are about songs I'm playing on the piano or my thoughts on learning piano as an adult student.

School
Posts related to events in school.

University
Having entered university a year later than my peers... there's just many things I've just discovered need to be blogged about.

---
# Moods :
Angry
Sorry. Had to vent that anger in my blog sometimes...

Forty Winks and More
Posts on sleep problems

In Arrogant Mode
Once in a while you'll see my arrogant side in posts labeled with this.

No Mood
This label speaks for itself. Usually a label I use with Monday [Blues] posts.

What is Sleep Anyway?
Posts where I didn't have enough sleep/pulled an all-nighter

---
# Personal :
Blog Meme
You know what I like about these blog memes? They can reveal (a bit) about the personality of the blogger. It helps readers to understand what kind of person is this blogger.

Checklist
An experimental label actually. Checklist is more like short-term (or rather, month-long) goals I've set for myself.

Cringy Teenage Years
I love re-reading my old posts and I always end up asking myself "WHO ARE YOU?". Looking back at them again in 2019: I decided to give posts from 2005-2008 this label to remind anyone who stumble on those posts that "I posted that during this phase!" Why not delete them you say? They are part of my life and how I became to be what I am today so as cringy as they are *shivers*, I'm going to let them stay.

Delayed Rebellious Phase (Cringeworthy)
Same as "Cringy Teenage Years" but for posts from 2009-2013. I think most are fine...? but I cringed a lot reading them again while I edit the broken photobucket images in this blog so I'm giving emphasis on the cringeworthy part.

Family
Posts which mentions about my family or relatives.

Friends
Posts which mentions about my friends or just thoughts on friendship.

Interest
Posts under this label are related to my hobbies or anything I fancy of...

Life
Posts with everything to do with what happened in my life or what I think about life. (or rather about someone I have opinions on...)

Me.
Posts about me...or my past.

Personal Photos
Posts with personal photos (mostly childhood photos).

Reminiscences
Posts about past posts. Or the usual reminiscences things...

---
# Thoughts and Opinions :
Blabbers
Non-sensical, out-of-blue, "huh?" talks are under this category. This category exists because when some thoughts come across my mind, even small things that will not matter much to me in the future, I need to let it out, just to make myself better. In short, it's mostly ignorable posts.

Self-talk
It's me talking to myself. I don't hope for someone to read it because I think it can be nasty in the future.

Random-ness, at random, Nonsense
When I talk about different things which may be related or non-related to each other in a single post, I put it under any of these labels. Mostly are my opinions, which is what makes it differs from a "Blabbers" post. New label used recently : "at random" and "Nonsense".

Thoughts
Related to Random-ness. A few Thoughts = Random-ness.

---
# Favourites and Leisure :
~Names of person, drama, book, etc
Posts under labels below are people and things that caught my attention to blog about them...

# People :
Diana Wynne Jones - I love her books.
蘇有朋 - My favourite taiwanese actor/singer from 2000 to 2006/7(?).
大野智 - My favourite japanese actor/singer/personality since 2010. He's the reason I'm a full-fledged Arashi fan now because I was only a fan of their songs after I saw Hana Yori Dango in 2005. Read the whole story here.
嵐 - My favourite Japanese boy band. They are really interesting people. I mean it.
山下智久 - Was a fan of his since watching him in Nobuta wo Produce.
Seiyuu Love - A label dedicated for seiyuus (voice actors/actresses in japanese) in this blog

# Drama & TV Shows :
情定愛琴海 - One of my favourite taiwanese drama. Aka "Love of the Aegean Sea".
クロサギ - I'm addicted to this drama. Aka "Kurosagi".
Monk - Mr. Monk. He can be obsessive, comedic and detective at the same time.
野ブタ - original title: 野ブタ。をプロデュース "Nobuta wo Produce" - I love Akira!
House MD - Fan of Hugh Laurie's Dr House. Duh!
トリック - A quirky japanese drama about a magician and a physicist solving paranormal mysteries. "Trick"

# Series :
Anything that has multiple versions of media format (web novel, light novel, manga, anime etc) falls under this

7th Time Loop - "Loop 7-kaime no Akuyaku Reijou wa, Moto Tekikoku de Jiyuu Kimama na Hanayome Seikatsu wo Mankitsu suru" or "7th Time Loop: The Villainess Enjoys a Carefree Life Married to Her Worst Enemy!". Shortened as "Loop 7" or "Loop Nana" in Japanese.
Hyouka - The correct(?) name for the series is the Kotenbu series but I opted for Hyouka because that's how I get to know about series (through the anime).
Last Boss Queen - "Higeki no Genkyou to Naru Saikyou Gedou Last Boss Joou wa Tami no Tame ni Tsukushimasu." or "The Most Heretical Last Boss Queen". Usually shortened to "Last Tame" in Japanese.
Sei and Albert - "Seijo no Maryoku wa Bannou desu" or "The Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent". I just use this instead because the English title gave me weird numbers in the label section... and I love Sei and Albert XD 
Tondemo Skill - "Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi" or "Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill". Saw the anime in 2023 and very interested in it.
Uta no Prince-sama - as is.  

Dorama
Posts mentioning my chinese/japanese/korean/taiwanese/cantonese drama experiences... Dorama is Drama in Japanese.

Books
If I talk about books in my posts, this is where the posts will be under.

Twitter, Tweets
Posts with my thoughts on Twitter or posts that contain snapshot(s) of Tweets.

TV
Posts with content on whatever I watch on TV are under this label.

Uta no Prince-sama
Posts related to Uta no Prince-sama franchise. I mostly talk about their mobile rhythm game Shining Live.

Web Novels
Posts that mention web novels, my new obsession(?) in 2023. Most of them are Japanese web novels, both translated and in original language.

What's New?

Posted in: ~Tuesday Posts | 2007 posts | Cringy Teenage Years | Old Blog | School | School: Form 6

Our monthly test was held last week. Ah. I was already ready to fail for CHEM. haha *laughs bitterly*. Again, I focused on BIO this time. There were only 10 objective, 3 structure & 1 essay questions. Yay! Another record! (lol). All Qs are worth of 50m, I got 27 out of 50. So..ummph.. should be 27x2=54% (yeah I know.. it's not something to be proud about but I rarely pass my BIO papers in f4/f5. It meant much to me)

CHEM paper was actually easy... if I did my revision, I could have gotten better marks. Surprisingly, I don't feel sad about it because I didn't work hard for CHEM. Regrets, yes. But no sadness. I think only those who had done extensive revision, a lot of memorising, etc yet still fail would feel sad because they didn't get what they want.

Maths---> The teacher was absent for this whole week, I guess we'll get our paper next week.. I have a bit confidence for this one.. Answered all Qs except one (not enough time..)

Speaking of Maths.. We'll be having another male teacher for Maths T Paper 2. ah.. the teacher entered our class before & I don't really have a good impression of him. hmmm...

We only had reading & writing Qs for MUET paper-- & embarassingly I got the highest mark in the class (at 77%.. also not sth to be proud of)


PA---> cukup-cukup makanlah. I passed for both papers.



hehe.. sth to look forward: LOWER SIX!
Being the first batch of form 6 in SM〇〇 starting last year, we'll have the privilege to become the first seniors to the lower six this year! huahahaha

I can't wait for the orientation day!! (oh yeah~.. it's managed by the f6 association).. wanna make them call me senpai... ruth-senpai..

First day in school *f6*

Posted in: ~Tuesday Posts | 2006 posts | Cringy Teenage Years | Old Blog | School: Form 6

nothing to do...

Obviously, our lessons haven't started yet.

It's kind of *hard*... I'm friend-less in my new school. But that's not the main problem. I can live alone. Well, I'm not used to the school yet.. There's many things I don't know & not sure... Asking will often lead to more questions.. (& I don't feel like talking to someone who seems doesn't want to talk with me).. If only there's someone I know from Lok Yuk there...(I know there are those who got SMKKL from Lok Yuk..)..

The situation is just like f4/f5... minus I don't *hate* everyone around me (yet) cos I don't know them... (But I don't plan to hate anyone this time.. I had enough in f4/f5. It would just make my life miserable...)

I saw our class's biology teacher today, though. (A male biology teacher!)
He said some of us *would have* to move to Art stream cos it would be a waste of time for those who gets C5,C6,D7 for their science subjects (ehem... where did I hear that b4? Ah! All Saints! So maybe this is that *experienced* teacher from All Saints!).. OK maybe C5 ones can still "hidup" (live).. but lower than that, "Please re-think!"..

ME: Ah. No, thank you.

I really need this "science stream." Even if I change my ambition (doctor), I still want it.

Are those non-straight-A's students not worth living in this world? Just because they (including me) didn't get the perfect A score, they are treated like someone who is guilty for something.. I really don't understand why.

But, what I can say now about this is: Those straight-A's students are created to fill the spaces available in this "common world". Non-straight-A's students don't have place in "common world". They create their own "common world" which will be filled (again) by those straight-A's students in the future. It's a cycle. So who's better?


I also got straight A's for my PMR, so you say "Look who's talking?" huh?

Most straight-A's (or straight-A-ish) students "can't think". They can't apply what they learn to real life. And their EQ stinks. (I don't like the sound of the 'other word' that you think is more suitable)

My definition of straight-A's students? Don't ask. You do the thinking.
oh ya. If you can't think that means you "can't think".


p/s: *spams* I like Physics but I had a bad history on Physics in f4/f5. Ironically, I hate my BIO & CHEM senseiS.. yet I got C5 for their subjects. I love Teacher Ooi as my Physics teacher. But, well... maybe I don't have chemistry with Physics... I have to forget about it...

Friend, Kurosagi & FORM 6.

I'm realize-ING...
" I can mayowazu ni susumou, negai ni chikadzukeru yo~ I see the light...wake up, stand up! mou ichido asu e try! "

The first time I listen to melody.'s "Realize" in Dragon Sakura, I've fallen in love with it already. [the full lyric with trans is available at Cori's site] The lyric are perfect to boost one's motivation (oh yeah..like me). & the dorama itself (Dragon Sakura) gives me somewhat urge to study hard yet smart everytime I watch it. 

Pity..pity... I didn't watch it earlier.. (SPM year) 

Anyway, that's not the main point that I'm blogging today. 

*kya!*

#about Friend 
While updating my friendster profile (actually my profile is still messy) I discovered an old friend's profile! (Had tried searching but unsuccessful)... Time really flies.. o yeah I also found her blog but it's no longer updated.

#about KUROsagi 
I've watched the chinese-subbed Kurosagi (Yamapi's NEW DORAMA!!).. *sigh* long time no see chinese-subbed shows, & the results: have to pause many times & most of the time I'm reading the subs rather than watching the drama! Will watch it again.(still waiting for Kioku's english-subbed version) 

The drama is very, very interesting. I ❤ it already! haha
Arghh!! I admit I watch this because I ❤ Yamapi!

The first eps was the same story from the manga with some slight changes here and there. *Horikita Maki's character came out early!* The scene Kurosaki saved Tsurara, Kurosaki's disguising, Kurosaki's past (sad..& cruel)..etc.. are very memorable & beautifully done (except that saving scene-lah. That's a bit unnatural..reminds me of the scene Tsukasa & Tsukushi accidently kissed in Hana Yori Dango)

Looks like it's an AKAsagi that Kurosaki will swindle in the next eps.

#about Form 6 
oh yeah, another thing. I could go to matriks (I've checked it here already ...positive. I'm chosen).

BUT I'M NOT GOING.

I've already set my mind-- Form 6. I know it will be VERY challenging, but I'm willing to try.

& I know many ppl I know thinks that Form 6 seems a "low-class" option.
(Oh really.. I know... if your name is not Melissa, than you are one of them) 

But I'm GOING to FORM 6 anyway.

My parents are a bit doubtful about it. Dad said "Form 6 is too long." (2 years) >> But that's settled. The matriculation programme I'm chosen is also 2 years. No more question on time.

Mum said "I should open up my mind, meet new friends & go to new places."
>> No. I've been to Semenanjung recently (accompanied my Mum who had a meeting in Melaka)... frankly, I don't like it. I may sound childish, but NO. I still have the hole I got from my SPM years ("thanks" to the teachers)... & I plan to "fill it" up by going to Form 6 in a different school (no SM〇〇!)...


If I'm still alive in the future, I've plenty of time to "open up my mind, meet new friends & go to new places".

What's SO "UGLY" with FORM 6 anyway? Truly AHO ppl.

⚠ Warning ⚠ - jdrama spoilers ahead!
(Keizoku, Nobuta wo Produce, Hana Yori Dango, Engine, Dragon Zakura)

Thoughts I'm going to throw here:


SPM results! *gasps for air*

Argghh... I can't take it any much longer! It's February & the day I will have to count my A's (if THERE are any...*sigh* maybe I'll end up counting my B, C, D, E.....or is it F?? What if a G [gagal~fail] >_<) is getting NEARER...
That's one reason I didn't blog much in Jan 2006...thinking much about SPM results~ ....to come to school & get your SPM result.. to face baka teachers who had been a 'GREAT' help 'teaching' me for the past 2 years(2004-2005)... "I can't do it but I have to"...that's what had been dwelling in my mind till now..
*BIG SIGH*


Language problems

With regards to language(s), I always have these 3 major problems.

[1] If I understand a language, my understanding level will be like... well, ummphh... I know more than the basic knowledge but never reached the advanced/expert level.. it's always average..

[2] If I'm into a language (doing all the readings, looking up dictionaries, pronouncing...bla..bla), other language that I'm used to already will be 'disturbed'. Like once, in Form 3... I was very much immersed to English Language (thanks to Phoenix's translations of Alec's news... I'd learnt a lot of new words).. always look up for words I'm not familiar with in the dictionary.. somewhat, I became better at finding the right words for my english essays. & when it came to malay essays... I often find myself forgetting important words & words I should have known/familiarised with... & a few days ago, I went to Bestmart with my parents & my mum was looking at some furnitures & embroidery works from China. She asked the seller for the price of one of the embroidery works & apparently he is from China so malay or english is a no-no for him.. so well, my mum looked at me & I gave her (& him) a blurred look. I didn't understand what he was saying! Oh, well, not really.. but it took me a long time to interpret.. hua, zhen de heng tiu lian! At that time in my head I was thinking about numbers in japanese!

[3] Third major problem: If I understand a language, doesn't mean I can converse in that language. This is the worst problem I have. The most obvious problem I have with my English Language. I can understand more than other ppl in school, yet I was the most 'quiet' one! *cries* There are days where I hope I'm trapped in an island with ppl who do not speak my language (malay). [haha.. this reminds me of Robinson Crusoe & Friday]

Generally, language involves writing, reading, conversing & understanding. I'm doing well with the understanding & writing part but not the conversing part.

Let's see... I'm 'trained' with Malay language since little... with Malay I know how to write (not that difficult ma), understand (the baku version, not the fully-corrupted version) & converse.. the same goes to English except the converse part..

Dusun~~only understanding part [pathetic isn't? I'm a Dusun girl, yet I don't know how to converse in it.. hey, at least I'll know if they are talking bad about me ;P ]...

Chinese (studied by me by my own efforts with no help from teachers)...understanding~ok-lah, average... reading~I'm OK with it as long as the words used is not too complicated.. writing~a bit (doesn't really matter.. converse~NO!

So far, for Japanese~ ah still learning!

Lastly,
Some Endings...

I've finished some Jdoramas recently so here's my brief opinion on it. (I finished some earlier but don't have the mood to blog about it.)
:: dorama title [my rating] ::

Keizoku [3.5/5]---
Frankly, other that the main character, Shibata Jun, I can't say I really enjoy this dorama (compared to other detective doramas). It's somewhat dark & confusing. I don't quite like Mayama in the series but I like his character in the special dorama (Phantom) & movie (Beautiful Dreamer) which is more funny. & I kept comparing it with Trick (although Keizoku was made before Trick).. both doramas have the same directors, so I'm not really surprised to see the same style & elements... Now it seem to me,Trick was like an enhanced (somewhat better) version of Keizoku. They have similar cases, Shibata always involved the word 'trick' in her explanations for the unsolved cases, Shibata & Yamada is almost similar... We have: Yabe in the special & movie, Ishihara in the special (I think that's him..), Mayama's urinating scene (think of Ueda please...~_^)... some I can't recall right now... And what happened in the end of the movie was really confusing (tell me if you understand). Anyways, it's still watchable esp if you like detective doramas (If you've watched the 11-eps series & don't like it, just go on & watch the special & movie cos it was really funny)

Nobuta wo Produce [4.8/5]---
Where did the 0.2 go? They didn't make Akira & Nobuta together (or at least give some hint that Nobuta likes him) so that's where the 0.2 went. I tried making my mum watch this but she said she's tired of school doramas (she watched Gokusen with me).. But actually, this dorama is different, although it's setting is at school, in my humble opinion, it's more of a friendship dorama (platonic friendship) which makes it unique & different. Shuji reminds me of a [childhood] friend of mine in school.. like that thinking of winning the 'games' in everyday life, having so many masks put on your face.. she really similar to Shuji (..chotto.. then that means I'm [her?] Akira then? cos most of the time I can see through her like Akira... AKIRA SHOCK!)...
About the ending: LOL...it really shocked me seeing Akira at Shuji's new school, I thought it was only an illusion. But it's really him (& kakkoi as usual... :P).. I don't quite like the idea of them being separated but it's Nobuta's wish so...I'm going to accept as what it is. Having Akira & Shuji in the same school was not a bad idea.

Hana Yori Dango [4/5]---
I was waiting for this last year (didn't pay much attention to Nobuta) & this proved to be a very compact version (yet good) of the manga itself. I never read the manga fully but I know there are some scenes in the manga not included in the live-action version. Some ardent fans of the manga are not happy with it, but seeing it from the entertainment point of view, one can't deny that the production/filming unit made a great job for this. What attracted me most was MatsuJun & Oguri Shun's performance in this dorama. MatsuJun's Tsukasa (aka Dao Ming Si) was IMO more lively than Jerry Yan's. I like Tsukasa & I like both actor's portrayal but MatsuJun's did well with the part of giving appropriate expressions which Jerry somewhat lack of. The same goes to Oguri Shun's Hanazawa Rui (aka Hua Ze Lei). I never liked Vic Chou's Hua Ze Lei in Meteor Garden (although I find him likeable in the second Meteor Garden)..& I was always rooting for Jerry's Dao Ming
Si but when it came to Hana Yori Dango.. it's quite hard to choose which one to root for.. About the ending: I actually cried watching the last episode! haha.. esp the part where Tsukasa leaving her behind. Addendum: *I like Nobuta wo Produce more than Hana Yori Dango because the NWP's plot seems thicker & new (to me) than HYD * I really think there should be a Special Dorama for both of this dorama...*hoping*

Engine [3.8/5]---
The chemistry between Jiro & Tomomi-sensei was lacking something, but I like that bit of romance in the last eps. I never expect he will lose the race! And the photo-taking part was really funny!


Dragon Sakura @ Dragon Zakura [4/5]---
As the eng soft subs are available at D-addicts, I decided to finish watching this while waiting for PBFansub's hardsubbed version (Eps 6 is out!)... I'm a bit sad of the ending cos it's not like what I've expected...Can't believe Hideki & Maki-chan didn't made to Todai... (I'd noticed Yuusuke's Akira-ness after he got his results! kawaii!)


That's all, I think. Can't think anymore~

I feel much lighter after 'having holidays' for 2 weeks. Less stress... I think what I can do now to save myself is keeping myself happy & think positively...

It's hard to get into my world... I don't reveal my thoughts easily to other people... In short, it's hard to read me... I have a very complex personality, I think differently from others in my class.

Sometimes...loneliness fills me...

I don't think I have problems in communicating... it's just that I'm VERY PICKY in everything. If I don't like someone, he/she will be in my AVOID LIST. I'm very reserved in class, but when I don't speak, that doesn't mean I'm stupid or friendless... I see, I listen, I observe my surroundings... I brood a lot...

Starting today, I'm keeping my mouth shut in class, getting more & more quiet, & speak or anwsers when only needed.....

I will channel my thoughts by blogging... that will keep me from getting crazy... I think I'll do more translations related to Alec starting today....
I'm not a professional translator... I just translate base on my on understanding (with the help of online dictionaries).. & I only includes interesting parts only, I'm lazy to translate the whole article.. But translating is fun, & I believe in the phrase, "Practice makes Perfect". Forgive me if I translated wrongly.

There is an article from "The Magic Touch of Fate" sina site that I found quite interesting. Here goes--

蘇有朋聊《魔術奇緣》:曾經為劇本流淚 [Link]
~Su Youpeng talks about "The Magic Touch of Fate" : Moved to tears because of the script ~

Alec once cried because of the script. He said: "Very touching. The male lead went through many kinds of hardship. A poor lad who still struggles positively even in difficult times - reminds me of myself during the time I went to China to film 'Huan Zhu Ge Ge'. That time, I just started my career as an actor. Being in a place I'm not familiar with... it's the same with what happened to the male lead. That is why I want to portray this character.

Alec was the one who 'dragged' Ruby Lin into the serial. He said :"She came because of me. There are some of her *scenes that have too much problem. Everyone was worried if she can complete the filming smoothly. She acted very well. She once said 'Don't worry-lah, I will not embarrass you de."

The articles also mentioned about the Korean filming team--sth about Korean having many rules. Niu Meng Meng said if you yawn during filming, you have to bow to the whole filming unit & say 'sorry'. The yawning thing could angers the director. She was also required to wash her hair everyday after finish filming by the Korean make-up assistant.(*because its not hygienic when it smells.. LOL... agreed 100%.. I also wash my hair everyday!)

<<The end

-------------------------------------------
Yay!!!!! I got to enter Alec's site again.... It was down a few days ago....

Alec & Chae Rim was in Chongqing, promoting 'Warriors of the Yang Clan'!!!

Dead PB account. You can see the photos here.

Oh..........they look so cute together!!!!!!!!!!

p/s: Chae Rim's hairstyle reminds me of Song Hae-Kyo's at her promo of "Full House" in Taiwan recently (watched in TV3's From the Green Room....it's a pity, Bi was not there...).

Hi...hi...hi... my birthday is getting nearer.....(& Alec's too)

Wow! It's almost 2 weeks since I last posted to my blog... Hmm... I only have myself to blame le... I was NOT in a VERY good mood these 2 weeks... Just a week before school holiday, I was rushing to complete my MORAL EDUCATION FOLIO - have to decorate the cover & all that...(it got me crazy as my teacher said [at last minute!] that the photo I had taken for Bidang Alam Sekitar was not right!!!! & she wanted me to take another 2 new photos!!!)

& then just a few days before holidays, we had 4 PEKA, 2 for Physics & another 2 for Chemistry... And the teachers want the report fast... I haven't send my Physics PEKA experiment reports, though... Don't know how to write some part... I'm done with Chemistry PEKA report [& the teacher wanted us to hand it up a day after we had PEKA or next week's Monday (during Pesta Kaamatan, which is obviously a public holiday)] ...BUT...

When I went to school on holiday to hand that report in......guess what....The teacher's office was locked!!!!!!!!! WELL, of course it WAS NOT OPEN!!!! IT WAS HOLIDAY!!!!! Stupid me for trusting that teacher... How I hate that absent-minded teacher!!!!!! Hmmph.! At least I have a reason to tell her why I hand in late!!!


Also, in these 2 weeks, didn't do much internet activities except downloading... Two days ago, I couldn't connect through streamyx...wah really pissed off-leh..

Peng Wei Dong Tai will be closed soon....& Suching will be uploading Alec's goodies at her clubbox.... Good & Bad news at the same time...

Hmmm.....

...wHeN tRaNsLaTed, It MeAnS --- 'My Bratty Princess' OR 'My Obstinate Princess' (Some fans at suyoupeng.com said this title is has more 'yi si' [meaning].... than "Diao Man Gong Zhu"... it sounded more like ~Alec's the main actor in the show! yay!.... haha...)

.: ChinesE NewS :. .: Chinese NewS at Alec's website :. .: TranslateD:.
Additional site---- .:Sina site--Ray LiU:. .: Muzi--Ray Liu :.

Latest news has it that there will be another actor from Hong Kong, Ray Liu, I never seen this actor before...


...& fans has started to be confused ... All complaints almost sound like this -- "Isn't Alec the main actor ma? Where does this Liu come from? Never heard it being mentioned in the past press conference before??" ...I'm also getting worried cos I can't stand watching those 30 episodes with Alec appearing only in few episodes...[side info: earlier it was said it is 150 episodes altogether...]

But another fan said.. "It couldn't be...because Jang Nara herself WANTS Alec to be her male lead..." -- She got a point there... so.... just wait for more news report-lah!


---------------------------------
Just finished watched 'Funny Wild Girl'--- this week's episodes is quite romantic ... Eun-hee's boss, Seo In-woo LIKES her and he does not hide his feelings... he make it clear that he will love her and wait till the day she has all her confidence back... In tommorow's episode, it seems she will be accepting him....hihi.... They quarrel a lot before falling in love with each other....

In Alec's new serial, I hope I will be seeing something like this ...haha.. imagine him quarrelling with Jang Nara....

Exam is just around the corner..................


------------------------------

Just finished watch Korean drama, "Funny Wild Girl" on TV2... Hmmm... the mother really switched her own daughter so that Kum-hee will live in a rich family.... I dislike her since I watched the first episode... And Kum-hee ---don't even like her...actually in my opinion, the character is quite likeable....but I don't like the actress's acting... her eyes can't 'talk'! I like the actress who acted as Eun-hee more... Talk about the male leads in there... hehe...there is this guy which is Eun-hee boss... his hair style reminds me of Alec .. It is partly like En Qi & partly like Jun An... haha..

I'm not really a K-drama fan... I just watch it for fun... I am interested in learning Korean language...seems more easier that Japanese...

Really can't stand some of the chinese (also cantonese) drama serials showed on TV... Remember Ruby Lin's "Flying Dagger"? Although boring I watched it when it was about to finish... & guess what? It got a hanging ending! (Or did I miss something...I wonder)... And the drama that replaced "Flying Dagger" is another Ruby Lin serial--"Love In The City"..... aiyo..I'm totally aware of Ruby's acting style... I don't need two serial of her to get me ready for "Mo Shu Qi Yuan".... Anyway, I love seeing her with Lu Yi (last watched him as Bao Zheng the judge)... and the serial was filmed in Shanghai! I love Shanghai! I've never been there..but, that place interests me... Okay, back to the serial: oh...well...ummph...it is watchable because of Ruby and Lu Yi but not enough to make me addicted to the story... & it doesn't provide me enough beautiful sceneries of Shanghai...

When I watch it I started comparing it with "Love of the Aegean Sea"..... I prefer 'Love In Aegean Sea' !!
Does anyone notice that most of the building in LOTAS have the same characteristics with the Parthenon building in Greece (the one that made Xiao Tong crazy about it in the bus...) hihi...will provide screenshots later when I have time....maybe in the future I'll make a [FeVeR pOsT] where I'll talk about things in Alec's drama serial which I'll do some research on it....hehe...watch out [2008 edit: I'm still thinking if I would continue this...]

Regarding Alec & Jang Nara---TOTALLY CONFIRMED!!!! Some news reported that he'll be acting as an emperor... and he will have Chen Xiu Li (Florence Tan=Xiao Zhao in HSDS 2003) acting as his wife too(his queen..maybe)... BTW, Alec mentions about Chae Rim in the press conference... happy to hear that both of them still keep in touch with each other... they will also be filming in the same place in China...
