drama.

i achieved what i deemed to be an amazing feat - i finished the whole series in one day!

o man. my eyes are like super tired now. i started out at 11am and had just finished watching it. 13 episodes, 12 hours in total. i'm beat.

typical lovey-dovey taiwanese drama. wu zun was really charming in the series! but i think he should just stick to acting. serious. haha. angela was soo kawaii and princessy. haha. it was an okie series but there were certain parts which were not nicely resolved. the show ended with wu zun rushing down in time to the airport to send her beloved off. that's okie for me. but what happened to her parents?! they reappeared halfway through the series and there was no news of them already. furthermore, i thought they would show wu zun as a big-shot of his own company at the end but there weren't any.

it was very fairytale-like at the beginning of the show. halfway through it, i was beginning to feel bored and thought the whole plot was like "duh~". i mean, how is it that you can survive on love and fresh air alone? that's probably possible if you have all the riches in the world i guess. haha. but the part where wu zun went all out to pursue independence, freedom and his dreams and angela supported him wholeheartedly was good. i was reminded of this quote i came across somewhere:

"love is not about gazing into each others' eyes, rather it's about looking together in the same direction."

it feels good to love and to be loved in return. i like to indulge in fairytales once in a while. i'm sure most gals do. haha. but O C'MON man. this is reality. what's the point of being all lovey dovey if your partner doesn't support/motivate you in pursuing your ideals/dreams/aspirations? what's the point of indulging in it if you are just using it to escape from certain realities of life?[eg. loneliness? independence?]

also, love is not about controlling/manipulating someone you like. it is not about exerting your ideals and forcing the person to take it up. that are all shallow motivations, no, excuses one can come up with to justify the things they do in the name of love.

it should be a powerful motivator. both parties should be motivated and help each other pursue their ideals. love has no point if it impedes either parties' growth and true absolute happiness.
