Baby n Me ....
I ve been waiting for ages n ages to watch JGS's new movie 'Baby n Me'. Well yest seems to ve been the lucky day since i found the full movie on utube .. yeyyyyyyy .. but it d been thr since nov 7th :( n i only found it on the 20th .. how sad is that :((
So the story goes:
JGS s the typical rebelious high school teenager, popular among the girls but a nightmare for his parents n teachers. Typically v c the dad throwing his son out of the house to make him a changed person, but here his parents decide to leave home when they cant take anymore of his crazy antics .. haha .. so one fine day JGS finds himself all alone at home. Well he cant b happier !! But soon things change when a baby appears with a name tag claiming to b his son .. hehe. What follows is the usual drama with a happy ending ....
It wasn the expected copy of Juno (the english movie) or Jenny Juno (the korean movie) though the whole theme was similar. It was fun watching JSG n baby mason .. but why the hell did they use the voice over of some stupid drunk guy instead of a baby .. that was really lame !
Now I dont think it was as good as i was expecting it to be :( which is sad; only die hard fans of Jang Guem-Suk like me :D would b able to handle it !!!
But anybody would enjoy this vid posted by 'Laiyiwen' on utube:

The Mediator Series
Recently i came across a young adult series called 'The Mediator' by Meg Cabot famous for her Princess diaries series.
Its about sixteen year old Sussanah (Suze) who can see, touch, hit, punch n even butt kick ghosts, only no one in her family knows this ! That is she is one among the few mediators to walk the planet, whose role is to help ghosts finish their business on earth so they can pass on to the afterlife.
She n her mother, move from Brooklyn to live with her new stepfather and brothers in California. This is where she encounters Jesse, a spirit like no other and to whom she later proves to be bound by destiny, whether she likes him or not. And that she definitely does :D well he s such a handsome ghost living in her bedroom, u'd wonder who wouldn't, though hes from like 150 years back !!! Her new school is no better with lots of ghosts with unfinished business roaming the place. However a slight advantage would b Father dominic, the school principal, a mediator !
Sonds interesting ney ... well run along to the nearest library :)
Shadowland, Ninth Key, Reunion, Darkest hour, Haunted n Twilight make up the series. So far i ve only read Shadowland n waiting to get my hands on the others ........... which is proving to b sooooooooooooo hard since the school hols started :(

Nora Roberts / JD Robb
Eleanor Marie Robertson, better known as Nora Roberts or J.D.Robb is totally my best loved author in the romance genre. Two of my favs by her r the Stanilslaskis n the In death series.
The Stanislaski Series:
Details the lives of Yuri n Nadia Stanislaski after they fleed Ukraine to the US. Each book in this six part series is about one of their kids; Natasha, Mikhail, Rachel n Alex followed by their eldest grand-daughter Freddie n youngest Kate.
A good read if u love noisy BIG families n sunday parties n lots lots lots of emo :D
In Death Series by JD Robb:
A romantic-mystery/romance suspense series set in the late 2050s New York. Other planets have been discovered and humans have built man-made worlds where they travel for holidays. Droids are commonly used as mechanical servants or extra office labor. Food is prepared by machines called Auto Chefs.
The main characters r:
Lieutenant Eve Dallas: Eve was found in an alley in Dallas, when she was supposedly eight years old. She had a broken arm, was covered in old blood, and had no memory. Unable to remember anything at all, her social worker named her Eve n put her into a foster home, the beginning of Eve's life in the system. Eventually, by the start of the series, she becomes Lieutenant in the Homicide squad of NYPSD as a way of dealing with her own psychological issues.Eve is a fiercely dedicated cop. Eve prefers to do things on her own, as it has less complications that way, both in her personal and professional lives ... thats a really nice policy !
The In Death Series is about Eve n Roarke n their friends like Detective Peabody, Detective McNAb, Mavis Freestone, Dr.Mira, CAptain Feeney n ............ n how they apprehend serial killers, rapists n a whole lot of sick bastards ... Still to get my hands on the latest in the bunch 'Salvation in Death', can hardly wait ....
Its nvr the 'i knew that' style .. so try it out sooon :)

Eve prefers to do things on her own, as it has less complications that way, both in her personal and professional lives ... thats a really nice policy !
Eve's relationship with Roarke (her hubby) is integral to her character; she wants to depend on him, but she is afraid of using him. She gets over that as the books progress, Roarke is a civilian consultant in several of her cases. However, there is no one that Dallas loves more in the world, and vice versa. He is also the only man she has ever loved romantically. The same is true for him.
Roarke: A former career criminal, he is the owner and CEO of Roarke Industries, an inter-planetary corporation that has made him one of the richest men in the world. He is quite skilled in electronics and can dismantle any type of security, lock, or coding, as well as hacking into any electronic database—including but not limited to the FBI, Interpol or Homeland Security.He is very even-tempered, but does in fact have a very nasty temper if riled. He does not lash out indiscriminately, however, and usually is only angry when the situation calls for it. He has his own personal sense of justice separate from legality; if he believes something should be done, he will do it, even if it is illegal .. pretty strong char huh !!The In Death Series is about Eve n Roarke n their friends like Detective Peabody, Detective McNAb, Mavis Freestone, Dr.Mira, CAptain Feeney n ............ n how they apprehend serial killers, rapists n a whole lot of sick bastards ... Still to get my hands on the latest in the bunch 'Salvation in Death', can hardly wait ....

K drama
I read somewhere abt Elvin's [one of the cutest actors in Singapore] take on K drama. Here goes:
“Korean dramas are so different from local and Hong Kong dramas. The attraction of K-dramas is that the plot revolves around the male leads, all of them arrogant, suave, charismatic and very well-dressed. That’s the formula; the girl goes after the guy and the girls are the funny ones. Sometimes the male leads don’t exactly look very gorgeous but viewers get drawn to their characters… Korean actors sure know how to ‘electrify’ and act ‘shuai’ (cool),”
What an accurate finding !!
well now u know why i so love watching Korean drama :)
Some examples would be the likes of Rain from Full House, Kwon Sang Woo from Stairway to heaven ..
Yoon Kye Sang frm Crazy For You, Kim Jeong Hoon frm Princess Hours ..
Lee DongGun frm Sweet 18 and the youngest of the lot Jang Guem Suk frm Hong gil Dong/ DoReMiFaSoLaTiDo/Beethoven Virus.
On another note, most K dramas have this totally funny female lead who s fond of repeated disastrous blunders n sheepish smiles to go along ! Though i dont really ve a fav Kim Sun Ah n Han Ji Hye r pretty good.
Well m bored now .. so thats all for now :D

One Tree Hill
I was getting bored today but couldn find any good korean/jap/ taiwanese drama to watch :( thats when i remembered abt OTH, my most watched American drama when i was back in Australia. Its a pity in Singapore u need to pay to watch season 6 or risk computer virus :((( poor me :(( I miss DC at Womens College soooooooo much ..
OTH is by far my best loved drama (well in the family/teen genre that is). Its been a looooooooooong journey, the past 5 seasons watching all the various characters blosomming into btr ppl helping each other in the process. The story is basically abt Lucas Scott (Luke) n his circle of friends. Starting off frm high school, the story takes us thru their lives in school n after graduation. The characters r more aware n mature compared to other teen dramas. This is very much evident from all the famous OTH quotes. Luke is an ardent basketball player n budding writer, Peyton uses her music n art to express herself. brooke has her fashion designing, Haley her singing, Nathan his basketball ... The show is also very musically abundant with guest performance by the likes of Gavin degraw, Fall out boy, Jimmy eat world, Sheryl Crow, Michelle branch n Tyler hilton to name a few ....
Lucas: The protagonist n narrator for most part of the series, played by Chad Michael Murray.
Hes the strongest among the frnz, sensible, caring, understanding, atheletic n last but not least pretty handsome :D. Hes one person who always tries to get along with ppl, whatever be the situation. Never the first to start a problem, accuse others of wrong doing or rash. Hes always been in love with Peyton Sawyer [who used to be his borther s (nathan) girlfried .. haha .. now doesn sound too good if u ve no idea abt luke or peyton or nathan .... ] However after a few girlfriends n flings n almost getting married he finally gets back to Peyton in Season 6 .. Thank God !!
One of my fav quotes by Luke;
"It´s only when you´re tested that you truly discover who you are. And it´s only when you´re tested that you discover who you can be. The person that you want to be does exist, somewhere in the other side of hard work and faith, and belief and beyond the HEARTACHE and fear of what life has".
Peyton: Portrayed by Hillarie Burton. Music is her life, a loner who
takes time to open up to people but she has a good heart. In some
aspects she used to remind me of myself :)
"At this moment there are 6,470,818,671 people in the world. Some are running scared. Some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day. Others are just not facing the truth. Some are evil men, at war with good. And some are good, struggling with evil. Six billion people in the world, six billion souls. And sometimes... all you need is one".
Haley: Off screen the singer Bethany Joy Galeotti. Luke s best friend.
Their friendship is simply the best, jus beautifull !! Her songs r very
soulfull n warm like Halo, Dont walk away, When the stars go blue n
the best: Feel This ...
