rating * * * * * 5 stars

i just thought tt maybe this drama was worth sharing..

well its basically about music.

orchestra

piano violin mainly..

it has actually quite good filming as well.

de sounds do come out very real.

as in from de instruments.

rather den most other shows

u could tell tt dey are just dubbing.

for this show,

till now i am still wondering whether de actors really are playing de music

well at least some of them i supposed..

but even the main actors do 'play' dem very well..

dey really look like dey are playing. =p

de sound produced is also very good..

its really pleasent to de ears

of coz

dramas always hv romance rite =p

this has too

but very minimal i should say

except tt those parts are superb

its like having too little of something and craving for more

although i think tt its actually of a suitable length.

not to many shots and not too little..

just enough for u to feel sweetness =p

yep but de main point is de music!!

i really enjoyed!!

its a good collection of classicals.

from beethoven to mozart to brahms

so its actually a wide range of music and genres

beautifully i say

its really an amazing collection

an amazing series!!

de whole drama was so perfect!

everything was just rite..

not too much tears

just enough laughter

and loads of musical scenes!! =p

actually if u are like me,

ppl who do not really hv any contact with music

i think after watching this u willl fall in love with music =p

its true!!

its really wonderful!!

sugoi!!!!

yep tts bout all..

oh btw..

there is a special season

and i heard tt there might be a season 2 !! =p

yeppy.

Nobuta Wo Produce
ratings: ***** 5 stars

today..
or just..
i finished watching nobuta wo produce..

well..
it taught me more things..
besides some japanese though..

this show is really a totally different show from any of de shows i hv watched
its really something tt i will not even wan to look at it wen choosing dramas to watched..
but this show proves me wrong..
it turned out to be amazing..sugoi!!

this show drain me off at least another litre of tears too..
but these tears were more concentrated oni till almost de ending of de show..
de front was really funny and all..
but til de back..
i tell u ..
it was really awful..!!
serious..
i would nv wan anyone to see me in tt state..
it was de very first time tt a drama touched me so much..

its something tt i cant describe..
its really so touching..
not de normal kind of touching but something really special..
something close..
its a show about friendship..
i always thought tt loves scenes are de one tt will really touch you..
but i was really wrong..
from this show i really learnt a lot..
wat friendship really means..
it really shows wat true friends are..
its just so touching tt i was practically crying like i was in there..
it was some kind of different experience..
and it really made me think wat kind of a friend am i...
was i one tt causes trouble for others
or was i de kind tt made ppl's day..

it was kind of a hard question..
some really good food for thought after tt..
as i was watching..
i saw wat true friends are..
but things are always easier said den done..
its somewat really difficult to be a true friend..
de show also taught me tt
"we believe because its de truth, but its de truth because we believe it"
some food for thought there..

amidst friendship..
there has to lie trust..
tts is one most important thing..
after tt..
we hv to put others before us..
once again..
its not easily done..
we hv to use our heart to care..
really care..
also..
because its friends..
so we like dem for wat they are
just as we should be who we really are..
we accomodate dem..
just as how dey accomodate us..

friendship is something so qi miao..
its de ppl we meet in life..
and somehow..
just like wat de show has taught me
"its a miracle tt u and yr friends met as ppl meet each other, one in oni 0.00000000000^n0001 ppl.. so its really a miracle tt friends meet.. treasure dem.. dont let dem get away"
there is really much to be learnt from this show..
friends are truly something we cannot live without..
someone might say, i dun nid friends..
actually these are de ppl who yearns most for friends..

we should really stop and think about friends..
not oni our friends..
but our friends' friends which includes us..
think about who we were..
and who we are now..
and who we want to be..
think about de things tt yr friends hv given, taught and sacrificed for you..

sigh..
as i was watching de end..
true friends had to part..
parting must be de world's most difficult challenge..
so anyway..
as i was saying..
as i was watching tt part..
i suddenly remembered it will not be long before i will be going through it..
so i cried..
for de ppl in de show..
and den this tot came into my mind..
and i realised if i am going to be de one facing it..
its going to be so much worse den watching a show..
i felt scared..
afraid of de day..
parting..
i dont wan tt..
ppl say we hv to move on..
tts practical thinking..
sometimes ppl also nid to put down their practical thinnking and feel with their heart..
its difficult..
really..

just thinking about tt day, my heart will just.. ..
will there ever be a word to describe it..

coz she's poor..
ppl look down on her and tease her..
all her sch mates dun wan to hv any ting to do with her

and she gets bullied almost everyday..

and so de four rich guys control de sch population
(coz dey are de richest)
and well two of de guys really did not mean anyting..
dey did not care about her..
but de leader despise her..
and often out to look for trouble for her..
de other guy somehow slowly sympathize with her..
and helps her along..
he den gets accused by de leader of betraying him..
anyway..
this nice guy den soon says tt he likes this guy
and well
shock..

so anyway..
dunno why..
de leader starts to feel for her too..
and yea..
love story..
as how it goes..

so no nid more explaination..

its actually quite a good story la..
its touching and
shows how de different classes really cant live without problems together

i noe this sounds a little boring..
coz i watched this show i long time ago
and i cant really remember every single detail le..
but i can remember tt it was good =p

fated to love you
rating: * * * * * 5 stars

this show is a very new show..
well its shown oni this year
erm if im not wrong..
or maybe during de december holidays
i dun ting so la..
should be this year =p

anyway..
just to let all of u noe..
i ting its already at its climax
or reaching..
so its really nice now..

to be truthful
wen this show was released
it was rather boring
not tt it wasnt nice..
just tt every week oni one episode
so everytime u finished one episode
hv to wait for another week
and it gets rather irritating..

but well to those who will just start to watch
good for u
since many eps are already released

its really someting worth watching bah..
de opening is actually quite normal
although there is a bed scene
which is rather u noe.. um..
yea.. cant find de word in english..

anyway as de story continues..
it just gets more and more exciting..
more and more scenes tt will trigger yr emotions
=p

okay its about a girl [chen qiao ern]
who is rather stupid
or kind if u want to put it tt way..
she is willing to do everyting for everyone.
watever ppl says she will just follow
and thus her nickname 'bian li tie'
which means like those post-it notes in english..
its significance is tt ppl just use dem and throw'..
and those notes are also very useful
no one can live without dem

so it means she is used by ppl
but ppl dun take note of her..
take her for granted..

anyway
she den miracurously meets a guy [ruan jing tian] on a boat
and got pregnant
so she is forced to get married

de guy is an upper-class
he is rich and is de next generation of a company
but he has already a girlfriend [bai xin hui] tt he really loves

he has proposed to her a few times but got rejected
her girlfriend is a world class ballarina
and is often away to achieve her dreams

now tt this guy has got himself into trouble..
is he going to leave de pregnant girl alone
or is he going to take responsibility for it..
and how is he going to let his girlfriend know..

as de story develops..
the main leads tt were forced to get married because of de child
gets on well better and better as de days goes..
but there are a lot of scenes
when de guy lead wants de girl to get out of his life..

many quarrels and fights
many misunderstanding and forgiveness..
and many many more tears, laughter, and joy..=p =p

as de story is still developing,
i cant really tell if overall it will be a show worth to watch
but at least for now i noe tt i will definitely continue watching
as its really addictive =p
=)

its a more different plot den most other shows
so this can be someting u all might wanna watch.. =p
=)

there will be updates wen de show ends =p
till den, tada!!

it started with a kiss
rating: * * * * * five stars

okay..
this show was shown in taiwan like in 2006
or izzit 2007
anyway.. not important
it just cause such a roar
not oni in taiwan but in so many other countries
including singapore =P

so, i ting most of u hv already watched this show la..
but for those still contemplating..
here is a review of it.. =P

de main characters are acted by
ariel lin and joe cheng..

anyway its about a girl
who is not very academicaaly inclined.
de first day she stepped into her high school
and during de ceremony she saw a guy
and immediately liked him.. =P

well for 2 years continuously she liked him.
secretly..
so until one day she decided to tell him
but was just rejected squarely

she den decided to give up
because it was embarrasing enough
as de whole sch noes..

but again and again fate brought den together..
she ended up staying at his house..
and many many things happened after tt..

all so funny tt u will be laughing so loudly
all so touching and sad tt u will be crying in front of yr tv or com
all so embarrasing tt u will feel like burying yr face

this show makes u unable to control yr emotions =P
it is able to get u to feel like one of de characters
and be so into de show..
=p
its really a must watch la =p
dun believe just ask anyone around u.. =p
u will not even feel like stopping.

u will end up so engrossed in de show tt u can forget about anything else..

well it will not be a good show to those who cannot control demselves
cuz this show is really addictive =p
but u will definitely not regret.. =p

and if u are not already addicted enough
there is they kissed again..
or rather it started with a kiss 2 =p
so everyone can feed yr need for this drama.. =p

anyway i dun nid to talk much bout this show la..
since like evryone oso watched before le =p

kk hope u all will enjoy de show den =p
