loving Korean teleseries and movies.. plus Sandara Park news

Ever since the phenomenon of korean teledrama in our country, I have been watching and loving it. The first teledrama I've watch was the Endless Love :Autumn in my heart, I was still in college then and was so drawn with the drama that I couldn't help thinking about what happen next during my meal time. Nah, I'm not alone then, all most all girls in my schoolmates' boardinghouse feel the same way as I am.

The past few months, I found links ready for download and take note its a complete series rather than watching in youtube. I have patiently downloaded several series and this would occupy my weekend watching all those downloaded video.
Of course, it would delight my day completing a very long series after a tedious task of downloading that would take up to hours. Well, download managers do help a lot due to its resume functions.
Some of my favorites are already shown on television but sometimes I missed a lot of episodes due to work schedules thats why am so grateful with the owners of the websites that I've visited.
A friend of mine ask if my actions be consider as piracy. I told her no, am not guilty of such acts because I use it for my own consumption... ;)
And speaking of Koreans, well... Sandara park is a huge star here. She's one of the members of the group called "2NE1". I've already heard their musics playin' here. Even my korean friends and co-workers are talkin' about them. They know Sandara Park can speak both Tagalog and English.
Funny thing is I also heard the 2NE1 musics as a ringing tone in their cellfone.
I saw their pictures/posters somewhere in the subway train and I'll try to take a shot for posting here...

1 year of blogging

... Oh, gosh! Time is really running so fast that I haven't noticed that my blog site is celebrating its 1st year anniversary now...
Anyway... I'm soo happy that even though I have no time for updating, some people still visits my site! Many thanks to them and to their comments!
And as I say, "I'm not a writer but once dreamt to be. I'm writing some of my daily activities, feelings and grumblings, as well as my experience... so, blog with me!"

for my home...

There’s this home theater system that I really love, it’s so beautiful! I once saw it when I decided to just take a quick visit in one of the nearest malls here (I'm kind'a bored that time). It has really thin speakers that you can install almost anywhere in your home, and it has superb sounds! When watching a movie, you’ll feel as if you’re in the heart of it all. As if the movie is unfolding around you. That’s the beauty of surround sound. I love movies, and I want to have that feeling whenever I’m watching. It doubles, triples, magnifies your viewing experience. I so would love to buy that system, maybe someday when I already have a house of my own. But for now, I can just appreciate and drool over this hot piece of technology. Sigh...

I miss me!

Hummm... I badly miss myself nowadays. I've been workin' a helluva lot! I'm onto my 5th weeks of my straight graveyard shift (no change shift) ...the worse in my working career! Yay!
I can't pamper myself! I can't go window shopping... I can't go watch a movie ( I badly wanna see one, rrr!), I can't eat pizza and pasta, I can't go anywhere else... I can't do a make-over! The last time I cut my nails was when I was into a run slash walking mode goin' to work!
It's a pain in the back when you hear your alarm rings, because you know you have to open your eyes and get ready for work! No time, no time... no time!

treasure every moment

To realize the value of ONE MONTH,
ask a mother who gave birth to a premature baby.

To realize the value of ONE WEEK,
ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.

To realize the value of ONE HOUR,
ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.

To realize the value of ONE MINUTE,
ask a person who missed the train.

To realize the value of ONE SECOND,
ask a person who just avoided an accident.

To realize the value of ONE MILLISECOND,
ask the person who won a silver medal in the Olympics.

Treasure every moment that you have!
Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift.
That’s why it’s called the present!

picture perfect

I love browsing for beautiful photos on the Net. A single beautiful photograph can move me, and bring out all kinds of different emotions in me. Like this photo of a single tree that I stumbled upon just now. The composition is great. I love the focus that it gives to the single tree and blurs the rest of the background. It’s so inspiring. I don’t know who took this photograph or whether or not it underwent photo manipulation… nevertheless, the final output is wonderful. What do you think of this picture?

a salute...

I just have finished watching the funeral rites of former president Corazon Aquino and I can't fight my tears from falling... just watching it in the net feels so closed in the Philippines... I suddenly missed my country.
