Song Of The Week: I Am Not Willing To Let You Be Alone

Hello netizens of bloggernet. I am starting this new thing where I will post one song a week that I like. It could be anything from K-Pop, Taiwanese-pop, C-Pop, HK-Pop, from a drama. It could be old. It could be new. One thing for sure is that it will be great.

I think the best part about doing this is it will allow me give you guys an opportunity to listen to some more songs if you're not familiar and it will allow me to go out of my comfort zone and listen to the same thing everyday. Then again, I have a lot of songs on my ipod so it will take a while.

First song is I Am Not Willing To Let You Be Alone我不願讓你一個人
  By Mayday.

New Start: The Four Constables


Sadly enough I have never seen this drama. I am in the middle of watching like ten things, which is making it worse to add another one, but I thought since they're remaking The Four with Zhang Han and Bai Bing, why not watch it now so I know what to expect in the future.

Final Thoughts/ Review: Tian Ya Ming Yue Dao


You know those dramas where you watch them, hope for the best that it will get better only for it to fail miserably? This is the perfect example.

It was a catastrophe, mistakes after mistakes. The only reason why I originally watched it was because of Wallace, Baron, and my angel Zhang Meng. After a quarter of the way through, more of an eighth of the way through, I gave up hope that the guys would save this trainwreck, but it came to the point where I was only skipping towards Zhang Meng's parts.

Movie Review: Back to 1942


Hey everyone. First off I would like to apologize for the lack of posts due to my laziness, school work, and that I don't have much of anything to post. That's why today I took time out from watching The Magic Blade and watched this movie and do a review on it.

Yesterday in class, my AP US history teacher was talking about WWII, or at least the lead up to it and everything before Pearl Harbor. Anyways, he was telling our class about The Rape of Nanjing, a topic which me and my sister knows really well. He had a slide with the poster for The Flowers of War; My sister and I got excited because we both knew about it and are planning to see it but it sparked something in me about another movie during that time period and that it got rave reviews. This is just a story on how I remembered to watched this movie, sorry if you find it useless. But I remembered I was reading a JayneStar article about a movie on a massive famine that occurred in China during the midst of WWII. 

This is the movie.

Curiosity Strikes: The Magic Blade


So yeah, how are everyone's dramas going? Mine's the same as always, nothing interesting. I finished re-watching Legend Of the Condor Heroes a little while back and in the process of re-watching Return Of The Condor Heroes, but I don't feel like finishing it even though I have literally 5 episodes left to watch. It's not intriguing anymore. 

So I thought I'd give something on my list a try and I thought what the heck with this since it's all dubbed anyways.

Anticipation: Luan Shi Jia Ren Again


Since this drama is already out, why am I still anticipating for it to be out you may ask. Well it's pretty simple. No English Subs for me to read. You don't know how painful that is. I wish that Chinese dramas got subbed as fast as Korean dramas but they don't. 

Even though I think this drama is probably going to be a miss in the ball park and not done well, I still want to watch it. Something about this time period gets to me, so does the fact that Tang Yan, Luo Jin, Sammul Chan are in it.

The Myth: Cast and Thoughts


Those dramas where you started watching them, then they get a little dull and now that you're re-watching you remembered how great it was in the first place, well this is definitely that drama.

Initially, I started watching this maybe in summer '10 or '11, its been a while basically. After the decision to stop watching Infernal Lover for various reasons and not exactly ready to start another drama, I'll just go back to an old on. None of the other drama's I've started watching truly sparked an interest like before but this one did. This drama gets me and that's what makes me love it. Even better, it's fully in viet dubb, FTW!

The Myth. Movie remade into a drama by our very own Jackie Chan, who was the lead in the original movie version.

MV: In Order To Meet You


First off I would like to thank JayneStars because without her I would have never found out about this piece of art. It's truly stunning.

Like she said, every still of Aska Yang and Qi Wei appears to be a shot from Vogue and she couldn't be any more correct.

The Interconnection Of Dramas: Legend of the Condor Heroes


I think I can speak for everyone when I say that we have all seen at least one version of this drama. I have only seen the '06 one so I'm not going to judge the others. Anyways, that's not the point but being the person that I am, a person with criticism and something to say for everything, have found a lot of things to say about this. 

Of course none of them are bad, yet anyways, we'll just wait and see. But I am on a slow process watching this because of multiple reasons, this being one of them.

As I was watching I kept hearing stuff about Yang Kang's past then it hit me. Muahaha, if only you understood. 

DO NOT CONTINUE TO READ IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCH LEGEND OF THE CONDOR HEROES!
