To fill those empty boring spaces in my life since I've stopped working, I decided to go to Speedy last Saturday and grabbed the famous Taiwanese series Meteor Garden VCDs pack. The drama was highly recommended by my close friend but I am a bit 'ketinggalan zaman' since the drama was aired in 2001. 19 VCDs! It will take some of my time to be able to finish it. Why I love to watch Asian dramas, I can never comprehend. Perhaps it is due to my childhood environment being exposed to a lot of Cantonese dramas on TV. Up till today, I am still hype up whenever I see an interesting Cantonese drama ad on TV. I remembered a funny incident last month when I bumped into my dad on my way out of the kitchen because I was running fastly towards the living room, not wanting to miss the final episode of this one Cantonese drama. Hahaha... Now adding to my addiction of Asian drama is Japanese and perhaps soon Taiwanase/Chinese. Not that I don't love Western dramas. I am so in love with The OC and Desperate Housewives. I think they have brilliant casts and scripts and missing an episode is something I avoid to do. But there're certain qualities in Asian dramas that one can't find in Western dramas. Being an Asian myself, there are certain traits and scenes where I can relate to myself or make the logic out of it and thus, producing a stronger interest and "emotional-connection" for these dramas. Plus, I love the screen so much, don't I? More than I love music. So there. One good plausible reason for spending RM 69.90 on Meteor Garden :p. And with no regrets too coz I am fully enjoying the story rite now!
