Boys over Flowers

I have finished watching the korean version of Boys over Flowers... I like it cos it has one of my favourite korean actress, Koo Hye Sun. Not that she is that pretty, but somehow I just like her roles in many a drama series...Hah. Watching her act is a pleasure somehow.

This korean version is definitely better than the Taiwan version that I had watched a few years ago. I didn't even exactly follow the series then! But this, I think there are some humour which I practically burst out laughing... and some really heart-warming scenes. Cannot deny that cast is good too - all those young F4 are good looking, so are some of the female extended cast! haha

But what I am more in love with are the OST found in this drama series. There are heaps of songs within this drama and all are great songs I must say. There are actually two soundtrack CDs for this drama, not to mention another 3 special edition albums. They certainly have made alot of $ out of this drama... smart! (oh, I have all the songs already of course!)

Below are my 2 personal favourites from the OST albums... Perhaps one can only appreciate the songs much better after following the drama. But even not, I figure the tune or the mtv already tells a story...



Love You by Howl... Lyrics translation

I smell a familiar fragrance in the air
The breeze that blew around you now blows across to me, oooh
In my heart, maybe it was the light you made shine upon me
That light shields me from hurtful sorrows
Love you.... thinking of you now, I close my eyes again

I love you. If I could fill your two eyes
I love you. If I could show you my smiles
I could give you all the bright stars in the sky oooh
I love you. If I could show you my love
I love you. If you could teach me you heart
Id follow whatever you do
Love you, Love you, Love you
Forever

Im walking right behind you beneath the moonlight
Look at me a little more closely
Should I ask the clouds to let the rain fall for you once again
So I could hold on to your wet heart
Love you.... thinking of you now, I close my eyes again

I love you. If I could fill your two eyes
I love you. If I could show you my smiles
I could give you all the bright stars in the sky oooh
I love you. If I could show you my love
I love you. If you could teach me you heart
Id follow whatever you do
Love you, Love you, Love you
Only you


Today!

I have not been blogging recently... Basically I have been very busy chasing my Korean drama series during my free time at home. =P Other than that, I have been slightly more than stressed over work and some issues with some people… But let’s do all these in another entry… I want to share how my Jul 14 has gone so far today…

I went back to work reluctantly as I had so much unfinished work and I had a meeting in the morning which I needed to attend… Yet I left midday… to go for lunch with Dan. We ended up at Li Bai, Sheraton hotel which Dan had reserved a table. In short, the lunch was fantastic. We ordered the set lunch for two, added the goose liver with peking duck and the spinach tofu. Thumbs up for the food- yummy!! I must also compliment the waitresses’ prompt services – I was certainly impressed by how acute they are to customers’ needs.

The next item on the agenda was a mystery, only realising that I was going for a massage just half an hour before the session. Whichever, both of us had a steam bath, a thorough body scrub and also tui na massage after recommendation by the masseurs. But the best was yet to come for we did this treatment which I forgot what it was called… It was supposed to help get rid of the toxins in your body… and to give you a preview, below are the end results of our backs after our treatment….



I don't think I need to point out whose back is whose, ya? Haha... The damages as you can see are great! All the red little dots that you see especially on Dan’s back are supposed to be evidence where toxins had been sucked out from the body.

Both of our backs are feeling pretty sore now obviously – see how red our backs look!! It was a painful treatment to start off with for Dan was practically holding tight to the legs of the bed when the masseur was doing it to him! Hah! And if my soreness scale is 5 now, then Dan’s one must be x10 of that! :P It will take a lot of courage to try this again!!

What an unforgettable wedding anniversary for both of us! All thanks to Dan! Hah!

P.S. I must thank some sweet guys who have remembered today of ours… Very blessed to have you guys in our lives! :)
