Week Two.
I will forever be grateful for the invention of HDMI cables.
A week I spent infecting myself with romantic shenanigans which caused the enlivening of my hopeless romantic self. Also, I realized that I am really good—outstanding, even—at wallowing in bed, being a couch potato, and fattening myself. (I know, I know, what a discovery.)
It is quite usual of me to stuff myself with Asian dramas and movies—Korean and Taiwanese in particular. This week, I finished a few dramas and movies, but the most remarkable one was In Time With You (我可能不會愛你). The first few episodes were quite uninteresting, but the story somehow pulled me into watching an episode after another, and I ended up anticipating the climax. I’d say this is the best Taiwanese drama I have come across and is, now, one of my favorite Asian romantic comedies.
Anyway, brief summary. In Time With You is about two best friends who are in love with each other—one is in denial that she is in love with her best friend in fear of losing the only genuine and constant friend in her life, while the other just always, always misses the opportunity of confessing his feelings…and then things get more interesting. The drama ended really well. I still get random withdrawal symptoms every now and then. If you’re as much of a cheeseball as me, I urge you to watch this. :)
Why can’t I have a love like You Qing and Da Ren, or Jun Pyo and Jan Di, or Seung Jo and Hani? I can only wish. Asian dramas set the standards a little too high. *long theatrical sigh*
I HAVE NO LIFEEEE.
