重看《网络情人》

某一天，我的电脑的random播放了《网络情人》里最著名的插曲。想起青涩岁月追日剧的我们，我把youtube的片段share在面子书上。

阿媛反映最热烈，竟然把日剧的链接送来。我⋯⋯竟然也无聊到把那日剧看完了！

观后感，我只能说，我要不是老了，就是世界的步伐实在是变得太快了。我根本不能再相信，世上的两个人用电子邮件联络，搞了老半天，还是不能在一起。可能十几年前，速食年代刚刚开始，那个速度已经是很快了。而对于现在的我，这个真的有够拖拉！（我也只能够这样想，我一点都不想说自己老了）

以前看起来很美好的，现在的想法完全不一样。

我想，很多很多事情，用回忆把它锁住就好了。重新体会只会把感觉彻彻底底的转变。换来一阵失望⋯⋯

Full House

When Gil Grissom Left CSI

I've just finished watching CSI. The one that Gil Grissom decided to leave CSI for good, to go to his love of the life and get a life out of the crime scenes.

Before we realized, we've already been watching the whole CSI Las Vegas team for more than 8 years. The latest season is already the 9th season! Friends as one of the most popular series lasted for 10 seasons. Though CSI is not as popular as Friends, but it has its own set of fans. Like my family :D

When you've watched a series for so long, you start to hate it when people have to leave. Sara left for good because she was tired with the life, that dealt with dead everyday. In real life, she wanted to try something new rather than 7 years of CSI. That's pretty close to the story of the series. Warrick died in the show. It's very very sad when he was shot because he's one of my favourite in the series. But in real life, he has to serve his sentence for drug abuse... What the...

Now, Grissom left. I'm gonna miss Grissom so much though he's not handsome, not cool, and he's fat and old. But he's a great CSI.

Gosh... What will the new CSI team be? Will they make me continue watching with most of the old timers left?

Let's see how things go.

Robert Downey Jr

Can't stop wanting to rewatch Robert Downey Jr in Ally McBeal in Season 4 after watching Iron Man.

This is just one of my favourite scene where Robert Downey Jr sings! Wonderful!

Water Boys

I was thinking to blog about David Cook's performance in AI this week, FANTASTIC performance! But, YY had already blogged about that. Well, I decided I just steal that from her :P

The reason I didn't blog right away after the show as I always did for the past weeks when I supported Michael Johns, is NOT because the elimination! We have to move on, right? Moreover, it's not my contest! The reason of delaying, is----WATER BOYS!

I've been stucked on my monitor for 3 days after work for this drama! Thanks to the very evil website, crunchyroll.com! You can watch all kinds of musical performace, jap drama, HK drama, movies etc, without downloading, on www.crunchyroll.com! Since it's such a evil website, I really need to recommend to all of you! :)

Anyway, lets back to the topic! The Water Boys!


Please imagine yourself, watching a bunch of 32 high school boys, dancing and shaking their butts in front of you, with only swimming trunks on! Yes! They are the Water Boys! They are a groups of students, devoted their time to syncronized swimming.

Of course, to be a drama, the story will not start as simple. The students have to go through hell lot of troubles that the school authority had given to them. They started with 5 members, getting through all the hurdles for 9 episodes. At the 10th episodes, they started to have supports from other students, and they grown to 32 members!

The most amazing episode, will be the finale! The syncronized swimming of 32 boys, are GREAT! Fun performance! Of course, not the Olympic standards. But enjoyable! For the 10 episodes, I enjoyed the stupid boys making fun of each other. It's as enjoyable as watching Nodame Cantabile, without the orchestra, but with cute guys to watch :P (Not really really cute la to be honest)

Tamaki Hiroshi-Chiaki Senpai in Nodame & Sato Senpai in Water Boys

To my surprise, one of the Kalefe was Chiaki Senpai from Nodame Cantabile. Totally different characteristics he played in this drama. I prefer his acting in Nodame though.

I always love this kinda brainless, funny, short and simple Japanese Drama! Recommended!
>.<

Boku No Aruku Michi

I'm now watching this drama, Boku No Aruku Michi. I actually watched the first episode before CNY. Ya, I know, that's quite some time ago.

The first episode, was very quiet. Not like any other Japanese Drama, the actors and actresses talk loudly to each other and talk very very fast. The main character of this drama, Teruaki, suffers from autism. That's why, the drama mostly consists of quiet scenes.

Teruaki has a childhood friend, Miyako, who has been taking care of him since young. After Teruaki left his job as "bento box boy", Miyako brought him to work in the zoo. It's very hard to keep Teruaki in a job for long, because people around him misunderstood him most of the time. Luckily Miyako was with him in the zoo, she helped the colleagues to understand him better.

I'm in Episode 6 now, 5 more to go, but I have to discipline myself. The drama is so far so good. There are scenes that make you cry (or maybe just me), and some make you smile, especially those which shows Teruaki sincerity.

I think this drama has good story. And, I think it really teaches me more about autism. Oh, it reminds me of "Rainman". ^_^

Recommended, but please bare with the quiet scenes.

Fresh Prince of Bel Air

Oh come on... I know this TV series is a little old to be mentioned here, but Will Smith is COOL man!~

I was in the midst doing my report, mind you, it's almost 3 in the morning now. I was stucked at one part and I started to clicked my way off in the internet, again... That's the bad thing of doing homework with computer and internet.

I started to click on Youtube.com (sometimes I just hate this website), and searched for some clips. I started off with watching Keanu Reeves back in 1987 when he's so young and cute in the Kellog's CornFlakes Commercial, Brad Pitt in a stupid coffee commercial, Johnny Depp in Late Show with David Letterman for his Pirates II and Will Smith in Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

Blame that on Ying Ying, she started to search for the clips on CNY when I was at home. I watched two episodes on Youtube and I was so tempted to click for the third but I stopped myself. It's just too painful to control yourself not to laugh at this funny show. Chris Rock appeared in one of the episode, but he ain't as funny as Will! Hahahaha.... Will's the BEST!

Prison Break

Prison Break is back on the TV on US on 22nd of January! I've asked my friend to send to me if he saw Episode 14 (has to be very precise as he didn't watch) on Tuesday. Immediately, he checked and BINGO! He downloaded that for me. I dare not to get from him, (although we tried to get it send through MSN several times but failed), because I was in the midst of the progress report as I said so in previous entry.

I finally got the episode from him this morning (urged him to go to the morning lecture) and I watched it, JUST NOW! It's still as thrilling as the previous episodes. To a point I really feel like killing someone just because the story STOPPED just there!!! (Ai Mei knows the best!) How I wish I had the other episodes with me right now!!! I could continue and continue... like no tomorrow.

Anyway, I hope the story won't go too far. I actually hope it'll stop after Season 2 because everything has gone too far, too complicated and almost everything in the drama has become one of the conspiracy of US. I want Prison Break to remain "A GOOD SERIES" in my list, so they really better stop adding in any complications!

P.S. I want to share an extra picture of the handsome Michael Scoffield (Wentworth Miller). I love his voice, very SEXY! Hahahahaha! ^^

Nodame Cantabile （交响情人梦）

刚刚才看完了这部电视剧，“交响情人梦”，是一步从漫画改编过来的剧。剧情都围绕在一群音乐系学生的生活与种种，虽然有时候挺夸张的（例如把人揍得飞起来了等），但是，还是蛮可爱！

剧里的男女主角都是俊男美女。男主角“千秋”是一名钢琴系的学生，但是梦想是成为有名的指挥家。而女主角“野田”呢，也是一名钢琴系的学生，但是梦想是成为幼稚园的老师，而且还作了一首叫“屁屁体操”的歌，逼自己的老师跳舞。一天，从外国回来的著名指挥家到大学来，成立了一个“s乐团”，收集了大学被公认的“垃圾”，然后由千秋指挥。故事就这样继续发展下去……（我也别说下去了，说了你也就不用看了）

从千秋开始当指挥后，有好多关于乐团合奏的那种感觉（虽然有点夸张地被形容着），我都能体会。最想念一群有默契，为共同目标而努力的团员一起奋发努力把歌曲奏好。不喜欢独奏，孤零零一个人面对着乐器，一个人感受。总觉得当一个乐团奋力把音乐的感觉带给观众的时候，就是音乐最美丽的时刻。

(从我的housemate，Sock Hoai （超级日本迷） 那儿得知，剧里的女主角“野田”（Noda Megumi)是依据真人真事所刻画出来的一个角色。真人也是名叫野田，而且就像剧里所形容的一样，对钢琴很有天分，可以靠听觉就把一首歌给记下来。不仅仅如此，剧里所形容野田的邋遢，也是真的。而且，“屁屁体操”是真有此曲，真的是野田所作的一首曲子。）
