Yeah, quiote late, hope you had a good night's rest. Well I hope you get to finish it, Shota is a really nice actor. I like rewatching myself, I like to have new perspectives on something I may have previously disliked or underestimated. Have a nice day. By the looks of it, you;re in high school, are you still on a holiday break?

lol true; by the way I just found out that Mukai will be given a role in a prime time drama http://www.tokyohive.com/2011/10/mukai-osamu-becomes-a-sadistic-yet-loveable-chef-for-new-drama/ that should giuve him some spotlight for showing off his lovable charms.

Enjoying skep beat then ;-)? How many exams do you have?

I hope I have not overdone with historical explanations; thing is history may well be spoiling some things for you, but it may and that's what I'm hoping, enhance your experience of it and make you enjoy it more, I am going to watch White Tower by the same writer soon, he/she seem like a very good drama scriptwriter, given jejoongwon, he didn;lt need time travel gimmick to combine period piece with something more modern, which is what I really like. The other supervisor is on materiy leave currently, but there is still time so I'll just do some things now and then there will be corrections to be done. THe supervisor possibly just wants to see the entirety of work to form a better opinion of it. It's going to be a level 2 course on some aspects of identity and I've chosen texts by Conrad, Isaac Bashevis Singer, Kazuo Ishiguro and her. I'm going back to he marathon now.

lol.I'm sure as we watch more we will have some other interests in common too, these things tend to converge a lot For the time being I see we share postman to Heaven and I"m planning to watch gokusen and kurosagi since I liked LIAR game (you could try it, Matsuda shota is a good actor) Yes, the thing is that I like when a drama is done because I casn enjoy the happy ending and revisit it from time to time; sequels tend to make me apprehensive as I do like a definite happy ending. Are you a rewatcher?

Post away, I like to read comments and engage in discussions, but it works better on profiles since it;s more a one on one conversations; forums are more difficult to keep up with. The part aboiut rewatching dramas: yes, I agree, rewatching dramas right after you first watched them will only kill theml you need to take a break to forget about the twists and turns, take some distance and then rewatch it for a new effect. I tend to see the first one episide...and then the last one to see whether the story is going in the right direction, especially if it;s a story that I picked myself; if a drama was recommended I will not usually peek at the ending, but the rule is I have to see whether the ending is worthwile and it doesn;t kill the drama for me at all lol, spoilers, escept for detailed analysis do not bother or detract from my viewing experience at all.

Actually, Jean Rhys is one of the texts I intend to teach, I know the story more or less and the construction of identity, female identiyy by a female cross-cultural writer (English-Dominica) and also as an intertextual link to Jane Eyre, this madwoman in the attic. These things are very interesting for discussions. I just haven't analysed it well enough yet to offer a commentary; I am actually going to do this sometime next week as I need to sit down, read the book and think all about these issues.

such a project for the first time; it's formative; he will accept everything as long as it's acceptable.

Film as opposed to movie adaptation, I believe I'm getting your point; A film is an independent source of meaning and creates an independent interpretative space as such it should ideally, complement the text or shed some new insights into it to broden the interpretative scope. 4-6 years for a BA? That's a bit too long. * years used to be the time for PhD; nowaydays they want PhDs to do it in 3-4 years time which is a bit ridiculous, especially given what you're saying about BA. Well, there is another side to it, so much time spent on a BA is usually productive as it teaches you how to use methodology and theory; I feel my teacher-oriented studies did not exactly give me the best foundations for it; and this process of Ma writing I am doing on my own since my supervisor is a bit lazy and does not really tell me what I'm doing write or wrong, which is important when you're writing

Yup ;-) Also with MDl getting updated and faster and making iot so much easier to talk to new people and vidsit theor profiles and lists ;-)

I believe I will be done with it tomorrow. I watched 22 episodes since yesterday (I was at 15 today morning) and since I took a day off from writing, I just kept watching..but I am very drained at the moment, that's for sure and this is getting more fired upp in these final episodes so I need to get a rest before I venture into the final episodes. I didn't realise these dramas were called makjang, I was not aware of this term so thank you for bringing it to my attention, I'll need to think about it and its definition.
Well, i';s more like the final scene was added as an afterhtought and stood out from the rest as incongrous because of it, but you'll judge for yourself. I am not saying word for fear iof spoiling it. My mouth is zipped, unless of course you'll have some thoughts along the way you'd like to share; I'll be always happy to hear about your insightful observations.

Just pasing by, wondering how you;re doing. love the avatar.

Hi, Chen, have fun around MDL ^^

Hello neighbour, Poland here ;-) Sent you a friend request.
Hope the New Year has gotten off to a great start for you.

Hello Juniko, been a while, how's it going?
Also, a bit belatedly, but Happy New Year, hope it will be a good one for you.

I liked the anime film; going to check this one out.

And here Skye mentioned in the chat thread he wants to make MDL huge lol it's scary :D. Hope it stays our well, collaborative blogs are fun, especially when you;re sharing the passion for dramas. Spread the love ^^ Have a good afternoon.

Mirichan, personally I am happy when dramas end. because I can enjoy my happy endings and I know that no further complications are coming; besides making some of them longer would only tire the material and bring the drama down and since most dramas are mostly the same, I will be getting more of the same anyway just with different cast; and I always think- you can always revisit that drama and enjoy it again and also delight in the happy ending lol . That's why I"m worried about the second season of Jade Palace a bit. The ending was rushed and abrupt but still, it was a happy one, not sure what they are going to ber working with now. Or maybe it;s just a spin off with the same cast. Who knows. 8th prince and our modern day heroine were lovable and Yang Mi and FSF worked well together, so I; curious: what now lol

Lol nice description.

I love this blogging is spreading and I think everyone has their own unique takes on things, it's fantastic. <br /><br />LOL at your description; your Plan to Watch list is sure a king kong of mdl XD
