where's my attention span?

Mar 15, 2007 01:39

1)I've been busy studying for finals this week. I'm having hard time focusing. :( I think I'm just at the point where I'm really burnt out from school and I just can't take in anymore information. I'm able to focus for couple minutes than after my mind wonders elsewhere. I don't know how picked up ADD in past week, lol. My finals are next week. I ( Read more... )

LOL! I wish you watched. I'm glad you at least saw Daniel's movie. :) I'll have to get you to watch Rain's new movie when it comes out. It makes me really happy you really like Rain! Thank you for helping me edit. I should really paste to you next time instead of logging back and forth to change stuff, lol. :P

He's not a smuck! He's Joo Ji-Hoon. He's in the new drama The Devil that I mentioned above. He's my second favorite Ji-Hoon, first being Rain. :D Maybe you'll like the icon of him with the bear better...

Thank you so much!! *hugs*

Have you seen Hanadan yet? I'm guessing you're still enjoying Beach. :) I found out one thing about Hanadan ending well it's not really spoiler but....

it's a happy ending! EEEE!! I'm so glad! MatsuJun said that the ending will be very important scene for Dom and Makino! :D

I haven't had a chance to watch HYD2 yet, I am still all about Lee Wan. In "let's go to the beach" he just bought her a dolphin necklace and when they were going on a bus and she fell asleep he moved her head so that it can be on his shoulder. And he is angsting about his father's approval. I really like this drama, it is very lovely, their falling in love process is probably the best among I have known. It could be replacing IWAK from my top "fluffy" dorama.

Awww, how cute! I love that in Korean dramas when the girl falls asleep and guy moves her head to his shoulder. It's just so sweet. EEEE! Sounds so cute and I really love that it's fluffy. I haven't seen something good and fluffy in awhile. I can't wait to be able to watch this so I can squee with you! :D

I wish you all the best for your finals, Diana! I hope you'll do great :) And I can definitely sympathise with lack of attention span when studying. I think that happened a lot to me, too. I usually find it useful (when studying) to not have anything that could possibly distract me, such as being near Internet access, having the music on, or be around people talking loudly :D I'm sure you have your own types of distractions too, but setting yourself away from those distractions may help you focus that much longer ^^

As for Hanadan? Well I have only seen up to ep 4 so I cannot comment much *grin*

Re: Podcast. That sounds like an excellent idea! I still haven't had time to look around for Japanese language courses near where I live :( I have some Japanese learning books though, which I could probably read again if I was really motivated :D And whoa. School is really expensive huh. Sorry to hear about the fee increase!

And housing! Best of luck for that, too!!! :)

Thank you so much!! *hugs* I have all of those distractions going on, lol. ^^ I'm sure being near internet access is the worst of them all. I usually have to study with music on so that's okay. Thank you for your tip and I will try to keep away from the computer today as much as I can. :) I may have to lock myself somewhere to study. :P

I could definately send you the rest of Handan once it's done. :D

The podcast title is JapanesePod.com-Learn Japanese(Audio) they have an audio and video one too I think. It's the best one I've found. I tried a couple others but they weren't as clear. I hope you'll find time to look around for Japanese course! I've always thought of getting books(I always browse through them at bookstores) but I'm worried I won't be motivated enough to read them. Yeah, school pretty expensive though I'm lucky enough to have financial aid and loan to cover most of it. Hopefully, they will increase the aid since the fees are going up too.

Thank you!! :D

EEEEE! I have something completely random to tell you. I called my mom today and she was telling me how she loved Hanadan! I burned season one for her and she said she want to see season 2 now, lol. ^^ I've been telling her how great season 2 is and I'm very excited she's into it. I asked her what she thought of MatsuJun and she thought he was weird looking too but then he grew on her. :) She's a Ji-Hoon fan too! It was just funny since i was walking back to my dorm and squeeing with my mom about Hanadan. :D I really want to show her Pride too since that's really the best Japanese drama I've seen thus far. I'm sure she would find Kimura hot. :P

That is uber cool that your mum likes Hanadan. I could never see my mum squeeing with me over fandom (she would probably tell me to read the Quran instead, hahaha :D). And a Ji Hoon fan too? Whoa your mum really rocks!! ^^

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. Spread the Pride love, babe!!

Good luck with the apartment hunt and, of course, with your finals!

I still haven't seen episode 10 of Hanadan (or even ep 9 with subs), since I got sidetracked by Kamisama Mou Sukoshi Dake. Mmmm, Takeshi Kaneshiro... But I have only two more episodes of that left of that and go back to Hanadan after finishing it.

I'm both excited and sad about the last episode of Hanadan. I read somewhere (I think d-addicts) that the last episode is going to 15 minutes longer than the other ones. The previews looked pretty exciting.

And I know what you mean about dramas taking over one's life :).

Thank you so much!! :D

I just recently downloaded Kamaisama Mou Sukoshi Dake but I haven't got around to watching it yet. I did see the first couple minutes and it looked really interesting. Is is super heartbreaking though? I have feeling It would make me cry a lot.

Yeah, I've read that it would be longer too. I wish they would extend it for another hour. :D I haven't seen the previews for it yet. It's probably a good thing since I'll be very distracted by it.

No, Kamisama isn't actually too angsty, to my surprise. I was prepared for much worse. Most of it's quite hopeful and only the last two episodes fall on the side of major angst. But it's all worth it, since that series is FANTASTIC!!! (just finished it, can you tell :)).

It sounds great! I'm glad it wasn't too much sadness and angst all the way. I'm okay with sadness and angst as long as it was worth it and really seems like it was. :) Yes, I can tell. :D I can't wait to see it now. I have so much to look forward to watching now. I still want to see a Takki drama first though since I haven't seen anything of his yet.

Hope the apartment hunt goes well! And I am going to skip ep 10 of Hanadan. Just the thought of Umi makes me want to go stabbity.

allbloomedout March 15 2007, 18:55:13 UTC
Thank you!! :D I know what you mean! All i saw from the previews was a minute of her kissing Domyoji and I already felt sick. I still want to see the episode though hopefully there won't be too many scenes of her.
