Thank you and I have GOT the tickets - even though they're not sold out yet, I was taking NO chances and so me and her dad are going with her. Her dad's coming under sufferance, but I'm so looking forward to enjoying more of something that makes my daughter so happy. o(〃＾▽＾〃)o
I LOVED her in Kiss Me and I was so hoping they'd do another series of that. But it looks like she might even…
I think the stuff she did with Mike D'Angelo was her best yet, same for him. I think their chemistry was off the charts and that really helped their roles (and the dramas) be so believable.
They've both done more since, but honestly Full House and Kiss Me were their best work. :)
It gets even worse when you try to search for the show on Google...*scrubs self with soap*
I've JUST managed to get tickets to their Burn the Stage movie for this Sunday - not the same, but she's really happy......we're even dragging her dad along as it's her birthday treat....we'll get him supporting BTS yet! lol! He already likes Serendipity (my all time favourite of their work). I'm really glad you had a good time, hopefully my daughter will be able to get a ticket next time. As she said, it was the first time they'd ever come to the UK so she knew it would be a long shot.
My best friend's son is a victim of ongoing bullying at his elementary school. Yet, the teacher refuses to acknowledge…
My thoughts, prayers and best wishes to your best friend and her son; it just makes me despair that nothing of this changes decade after decade.
Sadly you're right to be concerned - the kids will know now that the school faculty won't act and his mum is reluctant to intervene and so it will be open season on him.
She should switch schools now - completely remove him from the area. I found fighting back, literally, helped protect me and my friends.....but that's not for everyone; certainly it's a path my own daughter chose not to take and decided instead to just keep quiet.
Though I did threaten one boy who was really bullying her - I'd known him since he was a kid and they used to be friends; but he'd become a real thug (his father was very violent).
So I made it clear that 1. I was not afraid of him since I'd known him since he was still in nappies. 2. Unlike everyone else locally I had grown up in London, moreover in a VERY rough part of London and so he did not intimidate me on any level, because I knew people who'd toddlers would eat him for breakfast.
3. Because of where I lived growing up and the fact that most of my friends were boys and, until I was 10, all my cousins were boys I also knew how to box and kick box so I could dismantle him one bone at at time. Bearing all that in mind he better rethink his bullying of my daughter.....he did. But I wouldn't advise that for everyone. Usually here in the UK the police often arrest the victim and the schools suspend the victims - I don't know if it's the same in the US.....I hope not.
I really wish your best friend and son good luck for the future and remember that some time there's a chance of karma. I had the chance to interview one of my bullies for a job...she acted like we were best friends and I quickly disabused her of that idea that I was going to 'make sure' she got the job, just the opposite in fact. Yes, maybe it was petty and even cruel. But I felt a sense of relief afterwards knowing she had just a small inkling of what it had been like for me, my friends and all the other victims of her and her gang....not least my friend who nearly lost the sight in one eye because of her.
I'm going to make sure I take my daughter to the cinema to see this; she's ARMY and wasn't able to get a ticket to see them in London, so this will be a poor second but as her ARMY eomma I have to make sure she sees her boys. lol!
When a woman is pregnant with twins one twin can pretty much kill other twin or the 2 cells combine. This is an…
I believe that - my aunt was found to have 4 kidneys, 2 livers and 2 wombs and it was felt it was because she'd been one of twins and so had 'absorbed' the other. This was the diagnosis from a doctor too not just family hearsay.
'ends in tragedy'.........yup, sorry, won't be watching it then - I have cried enough tears to refloat the Titanic on tragic dramas so I am taking a rest from them. I know my Irish granddad used to say crying was good for your eyeballs because it 'gave them a good wash', but there's a limit. They're going to be like little eyeball prunes soon. So this is now on the NOPE pile.
Basically it's about a selfish girl who makes lots of angry faces and goes around slapping and being slapped and other people shouting BAI! (NO!) all the time. lol!
I LOVED her in Kiss Me and I was so hoping they'd do another series of that. But it looks like she might even be playing a character similar to the adorable Taliw in this too. I saw her in Yes or No and Yes or No 2 and she was so good in that as well.
Well, that's at least made my suffering worthwhile - it's why I wrote the review in the first place. I NEVER wanted…
Oh you have to get a red heart for finding 'normal' boring. I really don't like it. My health is never going to get better - but it's not getting worse for now and I'm out of the wheelchair a lot more now than back then and I'm 53 now! I will be in it for good one day, but that day is not today so I say (pardon my language if you don't like swearing) "chuck it in the fuck it bin and move on'. I have mild brain damage but the funny thing is it's the best thing to happen to me - I really don't give a flying fig newton what people think of me any more. It drives my evil mother in law mental! She REALLY hates me, even though I'm really the one that helps her the most, but there you go. I love my husband so I put up with the Wicked Witch of the South. ;)
But normal is like perfection - boring, unattainable and pointless. If you become one of the herd, one of the 'perfect', what's left to do? I LOVE to learn, more now than when i was at school sadly, and I LOVE meeting people and learning about them....but hey if you want to read them, then maybe I can put down some more of our madcap escapades - God knows we have enough of them especially as we now have a husky that makes Harry Houdini look like a rank amateur. XD
PS. Thank you for your kind words, you're a good soul.... :)

Ooh lucky! My daughter tried to get a ticket to see them in London (we live in the UK), but sadly was thwarted just her queue got to the seating - it clicked over and said sold out. It's the ONLY time I've seen her cry over something like that. She was SO disappointed especially as we'd said we'd pay for the ticket as her 21st Birthday present and she could use the money she'd saved for merchandise. So I'm pleased you got to go - were they good? My girlie's watched the videos of the concert and looked BRILLIANT.
Well, that's at least made my suffering worthwhile - it's why I wrote the review in the first place. I NEVER wanted…
I can't remember - I think life just got in the way; lots of hospital visits and stuff. I started in the January of that year and went through to the April (most recent always loads first I think), and there were so few people reading it and I thought that it was probably okay to stop...too bonkers I think, my father in law (now deceased) thought I was 'wasting time that could be better spent not being you' so yeah....lol! (he wanted me to be 'normal' because I was an embarrassment. XD)
Well, that's at least made my suffering worthwhile - it's why I wrote the review in the first place. I NEVER wanted…
Just remember - you ASKED, I wouldn't force this on ANYONE. I can provide counselling at the end...lol! My mind is ridiculous place...so yeah, just ...be safe, don't stay too long, you know what they say about staring into the abyss. ;)
I'm so sorry you went through something so sad! Stay strong, hug your daughter and help her find amazing friends.…
My dauhter turned 21 last week and is doing really well now. I've left my demons behind too.....thank you for your kind words, you have a kind heart and I wish there were more likemyou and my daughter in this world. Such kindness would make it a far better place.
I'm probably going to give this a miss as it seems it's a real tragedy right to the end and that I would just sob my through. The Chinese really love their their tragedies.

Holy God of Chocolate you were braver than me.......I didn't even try that.....too scared.
My ARMY daughter's asleep so I'll shout out to her fellow ARMY on her behalf. I see Jin's probably your bias, who's your bias breaker? Her bias is Namjoon, her bias breaker is Hobi......and yes, she has trained me well; I only wanted to learn their names and a few song titles just to have something to chat to her about - a year later and I can tell their vocals apart a few bars in, pick them all out of the most tiniest, grainiest photos, can even do the BTS chant faultlessly (not bad for someone with brain damage) and can sing along to most of their songs (Serendipity is my all time favourite, but Not Today and Spring Day are close seconds). Don't even get me started on the rapline's mixtapes, especially Namjoon's latest one (Forever Rain made me cry when my daughter showed me the subbed video).
