TV, TV, and more TV.

I finished watching Code Blue.

\(^0^)\ Hooo~

/(^0^)/ Haaa~

Medical dramas are so depressing.

o(_ _|||)o ...

However, they are still awesome.

\(^0^)/ YESSS!

Forgive the excessive amount of ASCII art (if you may call it that, assuming that's the right name, or emoticons) but that was the best I could express myself without showing my real-life facial expressions, because they may look terrible, and I don't want you to blackmail me with them in the future.

Where was I, again? Ah, yes, medical dramas. Sure, I initially watched this because of Toda Erika, but I got hooked up with the whole story. Yamapi was annoying though, the character, I mean. Dude, stop diggin' your nails, will ya? It's pretty unhygienic.

So far, I've watched Iryu, Iryu 2 and now Code Blue. All three series are stories surrounding surgeons, which means they also include and show all the bloody operations they conduct. It's not like I have any intention of being a doctor, or that I have a fascination with blood and gore, but for some reason, they always attract me more than a sappy romance stories would.

I think my first ever medical drama was ER. And that was like, years ago. You know those cantonese series they used to broadcast at 7PM on RTM2? Sometimes there were medical series and those were always my favourite. And if it wasn't the medical series, there's the police drama that would always catch my attention.

Like I said somewhere/sometime before, I am in LOVE with Bones. Besides, David Boreanaz is one of the main characters. Angel, anyone? Yeah, that guy. And in Bones, they never have "normal"-looking victims. They're always either burnt, squashed, badly decomposed, cut into pieces, or whatever, not your normal murder victims. Besides, you could Bones is a perfect combination of police+medical drama, although technically Dr. Brennan does not treat live patients. That, and there are so many things you could discover from bones. Like, whoooaaa.

Did I mention Criminal Minds? That's another awesome series. In this one, they would focus on, well, the criminals' minds. I think I'm just so interested in seeing the twisted criminal mindsets. I like episodes with serial killers the most. Don't get me wrong, but the stories behind their twisted behaviour always make you wonder about life, about the people you know. Wonder whether underneath the surface, there's actually something surpressed, and that once it explodes, what will happen. There was a period of time when I used to research about real-life serial killers, you know. Reading about them is so scary that I would always get my sister to sleep with me during those nights. But, I'm over that already.

I prefer to read Enid Blytons' now.

Who's da TVholic heeeere?

I just bought Bones Season 4 and Criminal Minds Season 4. Two "crime investigation" series. I love love.

I just got Psych Season 3 and Pushing Daisies from Nis. More "investigation" series, except these ones are more light-hearted than the above.

I just downloaded Code Blue and Atsu-hime. Japanese doramas <3 Doctor story and shogun-times story.

Ah, so many things to watch, so little time.

Don't ask how I'd be able to study and revise between all these, because I don't. :P

Now I'm just deciding WHICH one I should watch first. I want to watch Bones because I already finished season 3 few weeks ago, but I also want to watch Criminal Minds because I haven't watched that in such a looong time.

Also, when am I going to watch it. I feel like watching them at night so that I could finish it by morning, but I might be too scared to do that. But I don't want to start watching in the morning because I don't want to waste my time just doing that, because trust me, once I start watching a series, I won't stop.

Ah, the dilemma of a TVholic.

The Adventure of The Girly Girl who Failed as a Girl as She Grew Up.

When I was a little girl, I used to really girly.

I loved to wear dresses. I always wore dresses. Or overalls. I don't think I ever had real pants back then. I remember my favourite dress was pink with yellow flower prints all over it. I wore that everywhere. Of course, when I attend parties, I wear fancier dresses.

I also loved playing with Barbie, now that I remember. As much as I hate to admit it, I had a huge collection of Barbies. Fairy Barbie, Princess Barbie, Doctor Barbie, Casual Barbie, you name it, I got it. I would always make my dad to bring me to Just Toys so that I could buy extra clothes and accessories for my Barbies. I think that's when my love for drawing first started to bloom. I was an aspiring designer at the age of 9.

My cousins would bully me. I would just cry and run to the nearest adult. I was a really timid little kid.

I would have been the perfect girly giggly teenager today if my mum had not stop influencing me and when my dad started buying clothes for me. He bought me jerseys. Mainly those of Germany during the World Cup 2002 rage (if I'm not mistaken) and Arsenal, his ever-favourite football team. I never grew to love football, but then I realised how jerseys and sweatpants feel more comfortable than dresses, well...haha.

And then I just started to move on to oversized tshirts and three-quarter pants, and away from the dresses and blouses, and I'm stuck like that until today. I never actually discovered make up, you know. I knew my mum wore them, but I was never curious enough to put on some myself.


The Adventure of The Girly Girl who Failed as a Girl as She Grew Up.
