Pushing Daisies on TV

Rahayu is bored..she's itching all over....and she's like thinking..'Is it some kind of public holiday in America?!' Yes Im not getting my dose of American pop culture coz the blogs that I visit almost daily is on hiatus or something. Gawd! I didnt write in my diary to watch out for an episode of Greek for nothing! I did enjoy watching the first season but after reading the episode guides of the Season 2...it seemed very meh..after awhile, I can only tolerate certain amount of teenage infidelity, love triangle and what have they...all these teenagers with so so looks and a very huge sex drive.

The only reason why I wanted to watch the recent episodes again was the introduction of a new recurring character who played Alexis's personal secretary on Ugly Betty. He looked good looking on Ugly Betty but in Greek, he was like..well..still good looking....just a tad older looking. See what difference hair gel can make you.

Oh, and I previously failed to mention about this drama series..or maybe I did but I could not remember...that was receiving popular response from the tv viewers. With such storyline, I was thinking that hey.....maybe Singapore would show this on tv one day since it is very popular in US.

I had not caught an episode of it online yet to give a review of what I think of it..coz I was more mesmerized by Reaper..which by the way, I need to continue watching especially with the recently concluded first season. Let's just say...judging by my recent absence on the blog, I have been very the lazy.

And BEFORE I get distracted by my boring life once again, I shall bring your attention to the show called...

pushing daisies

















In short, it's about this guy, when he was young, discovered that he had the ability to bring a dead person back to life with his touch. It happened when he 'woke' his dead mother who then continued to do what mothers do until one night, when she tucked him in and kissed him goodnight, she fell dead again. He could not wake her up again and she was dead for good this time.

So basically, it's just a one off thing which he used to full advantage when he grew up. With this secret talent that he had, he brought the dead back again to find out about how they died to bring about criminal justice. It went well until one day, he fell in love with a girl whom he had brought back to life and who had no clue how she could have died. So the thing is, since he was not able to touch her again because it would mean that she would fall back dead again, they thought of various ways of 'touching' each other without actually touching.

It kinda drew a boundary among them which resulted in hilarious scenes.

Anyhoo, find out more about the show via their wiki site Pushing Daisies so you can basically find out more about what makes this show tick (and also see how inaccurate my description of the show is above).

On my part, Im very the excited to be able to catch this show on a tv channel rather than the internet because it means better quality ah obviously. Im just hoping they will show Reaper one day too. And judging on how forgetful I can be nowadays, I think I might have just missed the first episode last week...darn it!

So uhm..off to the internet to find that episode, I guess?!

UPDATE!

Okay so I have not missed yet..the show's in June! Phewh..

If you live in Singapore, here's the programme guide for the show:

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Not Gone from Good

Life hasn't been good lately especially in the last two weeks. The latest news is that it seems that almost everyone has an increase in their pay due to changes in the civil servant wage scale and very unfortunately, my group didn't get it. So my boss, whose post is that of a manager and the operations manager, have quite a significant salary rise.  I heard she got a 10% pay rise. 10%!!! look, even the attendants got a pay rise. What we got? nada! zilch! Why? Because apparently our salary is of a competitive range. Sigh, such is the unfairness of life. I'm already struggling as it is and then apparently now, the rich has become richer. The poor remains nothing but a destitute mess. So I guess the only chance for a pay rise is for me to be promoted and though I do not know how much pay rise will that be, at least it is going to be slightly better. The problem is that I have no clue when I will get promoted. I am not one of those people with many super ideas that will great...
