New Drama Addiction: The Originals


I must admit there would be periods of time where I would be so addicted to certain you tube clips from dramas on tv, cable or movie that it's embarassing to note I might be one of the frequent contributor to the increasing viewership of the said you tube clips. I don't watch them in full episodes since of course, they have strict guidelines about posting online for free but then again, I wouldn't want to watch everything so you tube is like heaven to me. That is provided, they upload the critical scenes. I would somehow know how the storyline goes, even though I don't watch all because I trawl the internet for the spoilers, recap and even the transcript, pretty much what I do with this show. 

After that, I would continue to trawl the you tube world and I'm thankful for these eager fans would spend time running through the episodes and make short clips out of them the minute they're out. So time consuming and therefore, I'm touched by how they do it without any fees and out of their own free time and interest, super fast too I must add, to share with the fans from other parts of the world.

You must have read my earlier post on how I was so in awe with one of the supporting characters which I admit, would promptly stop watching, if they ever kill his character. He's such a cool person like those laidback type but with such badass vibe to it, although I must say that in the recent episode, he is a little of a disappointment for a werewolf army leader. But he got injured so ok, guard down for a moment. He was saved by Josh, obviously, and who is also my favourite supporting characters. 

Argh, I can't choose! I like most of the characters, except of course the vengeful baddies, such as the two main Michaelson brothers Elijah and Klaus (world's apart in personalities but they look out for each other), the besties Josh and Davina, Marcel, the Vampire leader and Aiden, the werewolf leader and a secret ally of the vampires, for as long as it gets him and his pack, the freedom from being under the beck and call of the witches.

I had to wait for two months before they start the season again this month (oh, the agony!) but clearly, I was happy because Aiden and Josh are still alive, phewh. I could rest my thoughts because someone commented in the wikipedia, they mentioned in their twitter that they would be in the next season after this mid season finale. Yay, they're alive!

Ok, back to this show. So basically it's a supernatural drama made up of werewolves, vampires and witches and their feud over centuries. It's a spinoff from the popular Vampire Diaries series. Despite the centuries of feud, once in awhile, they would come together to form an alliance, grudgingly of course, if they need one another to help defeat the enemies working against them. I would post the link below, if you ever want to know more about the show. It really helps for a newbie like me. 

I would call this my new tv addition, though technically, I don't watch it there. Or rather, my new distraction especially during rest moments from cramming of notes for the upcoming Exams.

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...
