Little Boy - 4415k - 19th of August - In a week - still - yeah.

Enough now - from 3rd week onwards no Little boy - time to move on.

October can announce official 5000k - delay of weeks of months can't be as we are up for 5 million.

i havent watch much kdrama these days, most kdramas that airing atm is not my style. i dont like slice-of-life genre like Nevertheless, Rocket Boys, Hospital Playlist so i watch You Are My Spring. but the last episode is so sad so im on hold. i dont think i can handle sad ending atm. i wanna watch cute romcom or fantasy but i think that kind of genre wont available any time soon :((

The weather has been gorgeous the last few days, so I keep sneaking away from work (from home) for short walks around the neighborhood and nearby botanical garden.

I've been cat-sitting for a friend; more kitten-sitting, and I think today is the last day she'll be able to pull down my curtains (which she did again for the 44-millionth time this morning) as I finally broke down and invested in sturdier rods. And of course she's leaving on Monday, but at least I won't be teetering on the edge of my step stool constantly from now until then. She gets into absolutely everything and into every possible crevice and makes me want to pull my hair out...but I'll no doubt miss her and her enthusiastic cuddles when she's gone home.

I've been listening to AKMU all day long. It's been such a cheerful Friday. Keep well, beanies!

How do you go about picking your next drama watch?

Is it by casting, genre, writer, director or a combination of those elements?

Lately, I have been more drawn toward projects by favorite lead actors.

Vacations are a strange thing. The week leading up to my vacarion I felt like ot would never arrive and procrastinated a ton of projects at work so the two days before I had to cram everything in!
On Tuesday of my vacation I was like....how am I going to fill all of this time? Magbe I should go back to work early....? And confession...I checked my email and teams messages and responded to what seemed important multiple times a day, everyday. I learned that I do love being a librarian and the work of librarianship. I didnt need a break from that. I needed a break from people. Which puts me where I was a year ago. I had been thinking of leaving librarianship because my current situation is awful (its been better recently. My manager gave me a GLOWING review during my annual. Even better than the one he gave his favorite. I dont trust it. Im keeping one eye open) and my last few situations had been bad as well. So I had been thinking what else can I do? But now Im back to thinking well...maybe Ill give another location a shot. Im working up the courage to email this group in colorado. They are early literacy specialist librarians and THATS my dream job! I want to know how they became that and if they are hiring.
Anyway. Back to vacations. Tuesday I was ready to go back to work early and here we are on Friday and I go back on Monday and Im all....I shoulda taken another week!

I just finished watching Touch Your Heart which appeared on Netflix this summer. Pretty good drama with pluses & minuses, stars Lee Dong Wook & Yu In-A,. LDW is great as an attorney, but he spends the last 8 episodes looking at YIA with moony cow eyes. This is not an especially good look for LDW, who is a wonderful actor. YIA is so soft and squeaky in the first episodes, I did not think I had the patience to continue, but she grows and shows a lot of courage. There's a compelling storeyline about how actresses are treated by their agencies and how they deal with vicious online comments by viewers. I wish people wouldn't do that. These actors are actual live humans.

Hi beanies, its been a weird week. I keep trying to study more but it doesn't seem to be working out, mainly cause I don't have exams because of the pandemic. I am the kind of person who needs deadlines and i don't feel like working without them. I finished Office Girls and started YAMS. Episode 1 of YAMS and i am already intrigued. I don't have any drama that I am interested for other than this. I will be getting my first dose of the vaccine this weekend so i am looking forward to that. I also have an assignment lined up so I will focus on that for now. Any tips on how to be more productive would really be appreciated.

I'm sick and blue. :( I have dengue fever. Things are going so bad at work that I wrote an email and just escaped. I need to use the next 2-3 days as I recover to clear my head and find a way to make things better at work.

I hope you beanies have been well~

Since my coworker got the you-know-what, I have been covering for her for the past week and a half and I'm feeling a little burnt out and unable to enjoy dramas during my free time 😅 since her younger sister has also caught it, she might be off for another week while she takes care of her...but at least I have this website to check up on when I want to procrastinate a bit haha.

Stay safe, stay at home, and watch more k-dramas 😘!

Happy weekend Beanies and keep Beaning On!

This week has been very draining mentally because therapy is starting to unravel me and fighting agoraphobia is also uncomfortable. So far for the negative side of things, because this means small progress!💪As much as I would love to hide in my room, I must admit that the weather is nice, our garden serene and my environment safe, so I should go outside more often, whether it is just catching sunlight in the garden or leaving home for a bit.☀️

Can you all believe i am not watching any korean drama at the time?
Intentionally or unintentionally, I am taking a break from K-dramas, although there is a long list of things I want to watch, like Navillera, hospital playlist 1 and 2, a piece of your mind, sky castle, and even some oldies like "a secret love affair"!!!!!!
But whatever happened with my time?? I am so busy, so tired, so exhausted every time...
I am only watching a chinese drama right now: unforgettable love, which is not even that good, and I keep FF half of it... but yeah, that is my reality right now.
I need to make time to organize things at home, and whenever I start to binge a show, I can´t stop, so... intentionally, i will keep myself in the slump for a little while.
Nevertheless I always come here back again for the gossip!
Beanies!!! Have fun! Take courage and don't forget about me!!!! LOL

I've been working on Japanese subtitles on Bossam (on Viki).
(I started it after Ep.12 aired because I was working on Taxi Driver before then)
I'm working on the last 10 min of the final episode right now.
Yay it's finally coming to the end!

I'm interested in Honey Lee's drama One The Woman for my next project.
Since I have a feeling that it might be like Mr. Queen type of comedy (I could be totally wrong).
But PD is from Good Casting... Hmmmm....

Saturday morning and we're a week out of the last week-long snap lockdown. The Delta variant is doing its best to spread from one state to the next in Australia, and there's more urgency about getting the vaccination rate up. We've been safe where I live most of the time, so we just verge on the edge of complacency. I've had one shot and I get the second one next month. I've just finished Racket Boys and what a joy it was. Nice analogy about life and badminton made by Coach Yoon at the end - playing everyday like it's your last match (or something like that).

happy friday beanies!
this week has been super busy as it’s my last week at home. it’s also been pretty sad— i feel like a year ago or even before this summer, i was so ready to leave home and go to college, but now that i only have three days left, it’s really sad! a couple of my friends teared up when i said bye to them today. i don’t think i’ve mentioned it on DB, but i got into my dream college!! which is on the west coast (i’m on the east) so it’s very far, and i won’t be visiting home besides long breaks :/ i feel like i’ve only really realized how lucky i am to have such lovely friends this summer, which stings a bit. but i hope i stay in touch, and know i’ll see them again ◡̈

dramawise, i’m on episode 12 of her private life! i haven’t made progress on vincenzo in a while, but i hope i can do some watching on the plane. while hosplay's ep this week was so long (ALMOST TWO HOURS, i think the last few eps are gonna be over 2 hours!!!), i loved it. i teared up at jeongwon and songhwa’s storyline with their mothers, and smiled at ikjun. i also wanted to say, i feel like recently, the writer has been putting songhwa and ikjun together more, but i really wish they would stay platonic; i just think they’re amazing as best friends. same with seokhyeong and minha-- i never really bought that loveline even though i love them both individually. and the ENDING… JUNWANNNN! still pretty mad at iksun for pulling a noble idiot, but i really want to see junwan happy 🥺. i’m nervous about whether i’ll be able to keep watching dramas in college, but i hope if anything, i can at least finish hosplay s2.

i think this week or last week marked a year of me posting on the OT for the first time. things have really changed in my life for the better. i know me going to college won’t really impact you guys (i’ll still be online LOL), but i just wanted to thank y’all for always being here on DB, even though i haven’t been super active recently. throughout the hardest period of my life, you guys always made me smile and always made me happy here. thank you all. i hope some of the good energy i got the past few months can be passed on to you all!! 💜

love and hwaiting,
shachi
