My Lovable Girl: Episodes 7 & 8

This is very late. I could say that I've been busy but I haven't been THAT busy. I've just been putting off watching these episodes. I wasn't ready for what I knew was going down. I've watched them now, though, so let's get started!

I really like Rain's hair like that. Why is he so good looking?

Let's talk about episode 7 first! That was an episode wasn't it? What did ya'll think? I wasn't very into it myself. I'll be honest. The chemistry between Krystal and Rain seems very forced. Even the chemistry between Krystal and L seems forced even though I prefer that pairing. I'll just chalk it up to inferior acting skills. I'm still enjoying the drama but I'm not getting the lovey dovey feels I usually get.

Wook's dad got out of trouble for now. I don't think he is up to anything bad but he got caught giving gifts to another woman so he'll be in trouble again soon. I'm ready to see what Wook's dad's character is really like. I really wish he would communicate with his wife and tell her what he is up to but I guess that would be too easy.

We've got a lot of jealousy going on with what's her name and Se Na. Perfectly understandable. What's her name likes Wook but won't get him and he is hovering over Se Na and protecting her. She's just going to have to get over it because she won't get anywhere but that won't happen. Who's ready to see where her jealousy will lead her?

Shi Woo is determined to win so he decided not to go with Se Na's song. Se Na was upset but she took it surprisingly well. She didn't sulk too long and started trying to write another song. A lot of heroines in dramaland would have sulked way too long before doing that. I liked how Se Na called Shi Woo out on being drunk and hitting on girls when that happens. She's got him figured out for sure.

Wook will not accept his growing feelings for Se Na but we all know he likes her. Let's see what episode 8 brings!

I may not like the Wook/Se Na pairing but I don't mind watching them kiss!

Episode 8 was better for me than episode 7. Episode 7 almost seemed like filler. What can you do though? Sometimes we just need those filler episodes!

Se Na's song got picked up for a drama OST by g.o.d's Kim Tae Woo. *fangirl on* I've only listened to a few of g.o.d's songs but I've liked all of them. I did not, however, realize how cute Tae Woo is! I want to see more of him and hear more of his voice. I liked it. *fangirl off* Wook set all of that up, of course, because he wants Se Na to do well.

Wook's dad tried to tell him not to let Se Na come over anymore, to get rid of Dal Bong, and to move into his house and get ready for marriage. Um. Did you really think that would go well for you? Like, what were you thinking? Wook just walked away. I don't even know what to do with Wook's dad. He doesn't seem like that bad of a guy but then he says something like that and just ruins everything. Oh well. I'm sure he'll redeem himself later.

Let's see. What's her name tried to put the moves on Wook and it did not go well for her. Why can't she get it in her head that she has been permanently friend zoned? I would go so far as to say that she has been family zoned. Like, lady. You have zero chance. Take Wook's step mom's advice and stop barking up the wrong tree. 

How stinkin' sweet was it when Shi Woo took Se Na to watch the fireworks? I mean. Come on! So sweet! Why do I have second lead syndrome so badly right now? This does not happen to me. Sigh. I need to wake up.

We got a kiss at the end of this episode! What do you think will happen next ya'll? I'm ready to see where this will go!

Oh yeah. That is why I have second lead syndrome. Just look at the cute! Look at it!

Topless Tuesday/Whatever Wednesday: Son Ho Jun

I'm combining Tuesday and Wednesday because this is my blog and I do what I want. I've been watching Answer Me 1994 thanks to the suggestions of new friends and I get mesmerized by Son Ho Jun's eyes when he shows up on my screen so we're going to talk about him. Oh and guess what! He is actually my age! Yay! I don't feel as perverted now! I seriously thought he was going to be another youngin' because he looks like he is in his early twenties.

 Topless Tuesday portion will not be plentiful today but I will do my best.

Sorry ya'll. Now we're just going to look at pictures I like of him. I'm so nice.

Those eyes though. They're nice.

Yay, MV from his Tachyon days!

So go appreciate Son Ho Jun more, okay! I told you to do it so you have to.

Yumday Monday: Lee Dong Wook

I don't know where to begin. I'm looking for good pictures of Lee Dong Wook but my eyes just go straight to his lips. Then they start glazing over and I can't think clearly. Sorry if these aren't the best pictures but you know that Lee Dong Wook's lips will look awesome!

I don't have to say anything right? Like, it is obvious why Lee Dong Wook was chosen for Yumday Monday. Just look at him!

You know what? I have had a hard time thinking of a recipe that goes with Lee Dong Wook so I thought to myself let's do an alcoholic beverage! Yes self. Alcohol is always good. I went back and forth trying to think of a drink that goes with Lee Dong Wook or one of his characters and finally thought of a rum and coke. It is a strong, sweet beverage just like his character in Blade Man. It will hit you by surprise if you have too many as well!

What you will need:

10 oz. glass

3oz. Coca-Cola

1.5 oz. Rum

Lime Wedge Optional

What to do:

Pack your glass with ice then build your drink! 

Fighting Friday

 

This whole week has been trying for me so I need some cheering up. To make myself feel better I thought I'd try my hand at meme and gif making. I'm using stills from shows that are starting soon. So here are some funny (to me at least) memes that may make your day at least a tiny bit better!

 

 

 

My not so creative juices are low tonight, guys. but I hope you at least got a little chuckle. Have a great weekend!

Hersday Thursday: My mom

I'm not sure who to talk about right now. I can't think of one specific Kdrama or Kpop leading lady who has inspired me lately. I know that there are a lot of inspiring ladies in the Kdrama and Kpop world but my mind is full of my mom right now. She has always been a strong, inspiring lady but in the past several months she has mustered more strength and courage than I thought possible.

My dad was diagnosed with ALS in April. In April he was having a hard time walking but could manage with the aid of a cane. A couple of weeks after his diagnosis he started using a walker and a little while after that he was in a wheelchair. Eventually he lost the ability to move his arms and hands and now can only move his head. He is getting harder to understand and his once loud, strong voice is getting more quiet as the weeks go on. He is using a feeding tube and is way too skinny. He has accidents almost daily as he can no longer control those parts of his body.

To give you some perspective I will tell you this. Not even a year ago my dad was helping me move, digging ditches, and repairing houses. Not even one year ago. Think about that. He was diagnosed in April and now six months later his condition is this bad. Wouldn't you, as his wife be devastated? I would have a hard time not showing how upset I am let alone having the strength to take care of my husband 24 hours a day like my mom does. She even sleeps on the couch in the living room where my dad sleeps so that she can help him during the night when he needs it.

My mom does not complain. She just does what my dad needs. She gets frustrated, yes, but she is always sweet to my dad no matter what and he is too. My mom gets tired but she goes on. She keeps moving despite her own body not being in great condition and she does not complain about her own pains at all. She vents her frustrations to others and then gets over it and moves on. She doesn't dwell on the bad stuff and always focuses on the positive. She hardly even leaves the house and is even going on a six hour trip with my dad despite the difficulties and even looking forward to it.

I don't think I would be as strong as she is in this situation. I would be crying daily and wondering how I would go on taking care of my husband. Honestly, I would even be thinking about full time care for my husband but my mom doesn't. She just keeps going with strength and courage. I mean, how awesome is she? Don't even get me started on my dad's awesome attitude. So, if you're looking for some inspiration think about my mom. I'm helping her right now so I'm being the strong, happy one for her but I know when I go back to my home I will have to cry and break down. She seriously does not do that. She may shed a tear here and there but she gets over it and moves on. Awesome.

Who inspires you?

Whatever Wednesday: A Good Cry

Sometimes we all need a good cry. I could use one right now but I have to be strong at this time to make those around me happy. Watching dramas gives me an outlet for the emotions that I can't normally let out and I'm grateful for that. So, when I need a good cry I either watch these dramas or scenes from them.




















The bus scene from You're Beautiful gets me every single time. Jeremy is so sweet and innocent so seeing him having his heart broken is too much. My feels can't take it.



Secret is very emotional for me too. This is a drama I have to watch all the way through. I don't like just watching scenes.



Secret Garden always gets me too. So much sacrificing for your loved one. It is beautiful.



Can You Hear My Heart. This is the ultimate I need to be alone and cry drama for me. It is an awesome drama and is great for letting all of my emotions out.

There are so many more that I can name and may at a later date but my family needs me right now so I'm off to be with them. When I return from visiting my parents I will be watching Can You Hear My Heart for sure. I need it. What do you watch when you need a good cry?

Topless Tuesday Now Wednesday: Seungri

I decided to feature Seungri for Topless Tuesday because he hasn't been feeling so great and what better way to cheer him than to have women ogle him right? I mean, isn't that what guys want?

It's like a little sneak peek before the whole shirt comes off. Previews are good right?

Well hello there.

The whole shirt isn't off but it's a nice view. He looks good and he knows it.

Bam! Hee hee!

This picture is just adorable so I had to put it here. I know this post is about Seungri but look at Daesung's smile! And, you know, man abs are nice to look at.

So there you have it! Topless Seungri! Who should I feature next week?
