First impressions of City Hunter Episode 1-5

Published by

Hello my dear readers! Yes I’ve started on a new drama called City Hunter, starring Lee Min Ho and Park Min Young….. and I love the show! Nice action, smart guy, smart girl, nice second leads (more on that later hee hee), and basically very good looking leads with good plot… -thumbs up!- As you probably know, I usually don’t start off with recaps for the first few episodes, because they are always just like the soup of the day to me — getting ready for the main course. Alternatively, you could also say that me watching the first few episodes and doing reviews is like testing the water. If I like it, I will continue, if I don’t…. too bad 😛 This time round, it’s a bit different, because my first impressions of the drama is filled with screenshots! To cut the long story short, there were 5 high ranking officials who planned for 21 special agents to infiltrate North Korea and kill North Korea agents. However, the 5 officials decide to abort the …

Hello my dear readers! Thoughtsramble has been mulling over certain things recently… It sorta depresses me a little to realise that this livejournal will probably not go on forever. No, it doesn’t mean that I’m stopping now, of course not…. but when I get busy next time, I don’t think I would have the time to do recaps anymore… reviews on dramas probably but not recaps since they take a lot of time. I’ve been thinking of ways that I can make this livejournal into something that can quite last, but other than putting advertisements here to gain some form of revenue, I don’t think there’s any other methods. Besides, I started thoughtsramble purely because of my love for dramas, writing and making friends… so we shall see yeah? I’m such a computer noob that I don’t even want to put advertisments here because I’m sure it will screw up somewhere 😛 Of course, I’m thinking too far ahead. That decision-making time wouldn’t come yet for a long time, so I shall just enjoy writing thoughtsramble …

Hey guys! I’ve came back from a mini vacation, so I shall be updating thoughtsramble pretty soon! I’m going crazy with Livejournal. Is it just my computer, or does Livejournal suck big time? Whenever I spot a spelling mistake in my entries and I want to correct it, the entry goes bonkers and all the alignment goes HAYWIRE. I’ve also mentioned before about how my entries will get deleted when I post them. Sometimes, when I edited the entry, and I saved the entry, it’s still not edited. Why? I’m really reluctant to change to other platforms because it would be really troublesome, and I’m the kind that is quite adverse to change lol. But seriously, it’s going to affect the quality of my recapsD: So guys, if sometimes you spot spelling mistakes, or that the alignment is really strange and haywire, do pardon meD: <3thoughtsramble

Updates!

Hello!! I’ve missed you guys! I’m sorry that I haven’t been updating very regularly for the past few weeks because I’ve been having examinations, performances and organizing events.. so it was kinda hectic! 😛 It’s going to be a break for me from now on, and even though I’ve every plans to fill it with fun activities, I’m definitely going to post more often from now on!:D I’ve finished recapping Love Buffet and Gloomy Salad Days, and will be working on MIT recaps. If I have time/ interest, I will continue to review/recap Toda Erika’s drama (sorry, I really can’t conjure up the title in my mind right now, this is what happens when you have an ultra long title in a language that you are not good in) 😛 Of course, I’m really interested in watching X Family and K.One 😀 So yep! <3thoughtsramble— who believes that when you feel down, just smile and carry on

Taisetsu na Koto wa Subete Kimi ga Oshiete Kureta Episode 1, 2, and 3 Review

Published by

Wowwww longgg title man!! To be honest, I don’t remember any part of the title lol. Apparently, if you translate it into Chinese (which I will translate into English) it means — You have taught me to learn what is important. Okayyy so it’s a meaningful title, that’s why it’s so long:D It’s been a long time since I’ve started on a new drama! I’m going to recap this drama probably, but as you know, I rarely start recapping from the start, so this will just be a post on my impression of the drama. Firstly, Toda Erika’s acting is awesome. She totally convinced me of her character and one thing that I love to observe is how actors/actresses start crying. To me, it’s really a test of one’s acting skills. It doesn’t mean that if you have tears, you have good acting skills. For example, I thought that Ady An’s acting skills weren’t that great in terms of the sad scenes, as I’ve mentioned in some of the recaps. Some may question this judgement of mine …

Hey guys! I’m so sorry that I’ve not been very active for the past week… because I’m having examinations soon and (IM GOING TO DIE ARGH) I’ve not been preparing a lot for it already as I’ve been drama marathon-ing Gloomy Salad Days and Pi Li MIT, hence I will give you guys more recaps one or two days later. Soon!!:DD Need your love and luck haha:D I really need another good drama soon, recommendations anyone? <3thoughtsramble

Pi Li MIT and Gloomy Salad Days

Published by

DRAMA BLUES AGAIN!! I’ve just finished watching Pi Li MIT, a.k.a The Clue Collector, and gosh, the drama blues! I really like 007 and Lucifer, and also all members of MIT. It’s kinda surprising for me to see GuiGui act so well in the last few episodes of MIT. On the other hand, even though I’m obviously not complaining, Aaron’s character has less space for him to show/improve his acting skills, as 007 is someone who is cool, but as usual, very sweet towards the girl. I want a sequel! -starts chanting- It will be really nice to see all five of them act in the same drama again! Recaps of this drama will be coming soon<3 On a side note, I'm going to finish watching Gloomy Salad Days as well, and haha, sometimes I hate it when I watch 2 good dramas at the same time, because when both finish, the drama blues will be DOUBLE. 'Tis not very good when I'm having examinations right now, heh:P <3thoughtsramble

Castle In The Air Review

Published by

Hello guys!:D Recently, I’ve just gone to the library for a sweep of books, and guess what, I return home with 3 Diana Wynne Jones (who had just died recently, and I’m really sad D:) So, I’ve managed to finish Castle In The Air within one sitting, and I really like it! It’s a story about Abdullah and how he comes into possession of a flying carpet. He meets with Flower-In-The-Night (which is an absolutely delightful name if you think about it) and falls in love with her. However, before they could elope, Flower-In-The-Night gets abducted! –cues gasps- And so Abdullah sets off on this journey to get his princess back. Of course, I really like the ‘cameo’ appearance of Howl, Lettie, Sophie and Calcifer in this story! It was really fun to read more about them and to find out what happened with Howl and Sophie after Howl’s Moving Castle. As for the story itself, I thought that it’s quite interesting… but somehow it seems like Howl’s Moving Castle’s story line manages to grab …

Hello guys!<3 Exams have been hell to me so far:/ I’ve been falling sick regularly because I just hate exams sooo much, and they keep coming! THEY WOULDN’T STOP OH SAVE ME.  Lol. Anyway, life has been quite hectic so far, what with juggling dramas and exams and fangirling:P I’m currently watching Gloomy Salad Days and Pi Li MIT/The Clue Collector, and continuing on Love Buffet Recaps. I’ve just discovered that Shirota Yu has just come up with a new drama called Yotsuba Jinja Ura Kagyo Shitsuren Hoken and I’m so excited to watch it!:DD It seems quite nice, even though I didn’t particularly like the female lead in the show. I’ve been trying to find sites that have online streaming of this drama, but it seems like I can’t find it:/ Oh well. I guess I will just have to wait a little longer! Next on my list should be Taisetsu na Koto wa Subete Kimi ga Oshiete Kureta (what’s up with all the long titles!) starred by Toda Erika. She acts as a teacher inside. …

Review of The Next Aaron Yan EP

Published by

OOPS:D Hee is it a littttleeee too huge?! Hahah I’ve no idea how to make it any smaller because he would end up either looking very stretched or looking like he just got squashed by his fans:P Hahaha I knew that I probably would be doing something like this, that’s why in my review of Super Hot, I did say that that will be one of the few times. Well, this time is one of the few times as well! Okie, so he had six songs in this EP, namely: 1. 下一個我 The next me 2. 只看見妳 I can see nothing but you 3. 一觸即發 Touch and go 4. 最後一眼 Just one look 5. 忽然之間 Suddenly 6. The Truth That You Leave I have read a few local reviews that said that ohhh the fact that there are only six songs, and two of them aren’t created from scratch, shows the company’s lack of thought that is put into the album… Okay it really depends on how you look at it. One review said very nicely, that …

Review of Fahrenheit’s album, Super Hot

Published by

Okay to be honest, I hesitated writing this post… because I wouldn’t want thoughtsramble to become a site for fangirling purposes, if you know what I mean….as in I wouldn’t want it to become toooo un-drama/movie/something-you-watch related… but I figure that this will probably the only/one of the few time(s) that I do this, and it’s something that I currently like right now…so why not!:D   Okay so here’s the album track listing: "太熱" Tai Re (Super Hot) "Sexy Girl" "心疼你的心疼" Xin Teng Ni De Xin Teng (Heartache on Your Heartache) "繼續愛" Ji Xu Ai (Keep Loving You) "很安靜" Hen An Jing (Very Quiet) "守護星" Shou Hu Xing (Guardian Star) "活得更像我" Huo De Geng Xiang Wo (Going On My Way) "誤會" Wu Hui (Mistake) "泰山程式" Tai Shan Cheng Shi (Tai Shan Formula) "新生" Xin Sheng (Rebirth) I haven’t bought the album yet, but I’m considering buying it. Lol. I know I’m slow, but come on, I only like them since March? and it was all because of Aaron in Love Buffet. It’s amazing how just because I like Ah Yi in …

Hello friends!^^ Wow it has been a (relatively) long time since I updated anything! As you guys should know, there’s some problems with Livejournal these few days, and for some reason my IP address was still blocked even though most of my friends’ weren’t since yesterday. Haha, a lot have happened in the past few days! I fell utterly in love with Aaron (LOL:P) and I’m amazed at my good timing because I like him just when he’s releasing/released an album so there’s lots of awesome good news about him around. I’m glad that his album sales are good!^^ I’ve just had my exams, and I finally can rest for a while…and I rediscovered the awesomeness of Jacky Wu (homg I’ve never laughed so hard for an episode of I Guess for a long time… I guess (no pun intended!) without Jacky Wu, I Guess is not I Guess.) I will be coming up with recaps pretty soon, so looked out for them!^^ <3thoughtsramble
