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... )

Ahh, short attention spans are so much fun. (Not. ) I wish you the best in studying for your test! And I'm in the same boat as you for the Hanadan episode. I still can't believe the show is ending tomorrow. I think my heart is breaking!
Where did you find the language podcasts? Because I'm now insanely jealous and want them too! I think that I have picked up a couple things from watching dramas as well. I find myself having this urge after I eat something really good to say oishii...it's a little bit sad.
Good luck with the apartment stuff!

I found the podcasts! I'm so excited; it's something to do in my walking time. Because I spend forever to get to my classes! What Korean word urges do you have? I'm trying to think if I have any korean word urges, but all I really know is how to say "I'm sorry" ( they seem to say that word a lot in korean dramas : P ) and "fish". Yeah, it's kind of random. One of my friends taught it to me. I think it's mul goki. Maybe. I also catch myself wanting to say "kawaii" all the time as well!
Oh, btw, I just finished the tenth episode...I have no words to express my frustration at the moment, but expect a nice write up later. ARGH!

YAY! I'm glad you've found the podcasts! It takes me forever to get to class too. Most the time it takes at least 15 minutes so these podcasts are perfect. :) Umm, I have couple Korean word urges though right now I'm drawing a complete blank,lol. I think It's mostly saying - what and I tell my mom when I'm at home "mom, i'm hungry" lol. :P You're going to think i'm really weird but sometimes when i go up lots of steps i get tired so i go one, two , three but recently i've been doing it in korean. There's probably more but I can't remember. I just usually it pops in my head before I want to say it in english. You know it gets bad when that happens, if you're thinking in Korean first... One of the first things I learned was "I'm sorry"! Yeah, they used it frequently. That and oppa. That's interesting "fish". Yeah, I want to say "kawaii" all the time too! You know that 80's song "Turning Japanese"? I feel like I'm turning Korean/Japanese, lol. :P ( ... )

I just finished the first podcast and let me tell you, I feel way smarter! Lol...And I'm totally with you on episode 10! I was so mad at Umi. It gets way worse. My Umi dislike is very high right now. I also cracked and watched episode 11. I ended up watching it at 2 in the morning last night after a horrendous 15 hours of flying. But Hanadan made everything better. And then sadder because I realized that it's now over. I think I'm mostly ok with that, because the last episode was just so good.
It's been 10 weeks already? No way. I can't believe it. It's gone by soooo quickly. I guess time flies when you're obsessed with jdramas : P
Which new dramas are you looking forward to?

I'm glad you feel smarter. I honest don't remember what I learned, lol. I think I remember "I'am". I really need to practice and probably print out their worksheets or something. Where did you go? Poor you, you must be super jet lagged. Yeah, I heard the last episode really good. I already know the ending by accident. I really shouldn't click on things, lol. I just don't know how they got to there so I guess i'm not completely spoiled. I will be really sad it's over too. I'm not sad at the moment because I've been in denial. :) I haven't seen the finale so it's not over. I probably will on Wednesday after my last finale. Yeah, it's gone by so fast. I swear Fridays/Saturdays not going to be the same now ( ... )

Ah..you clicked on spoilers! I was pretty proud of myself for managing to not spoil myself. It was so hard though! I mean I kept seeing posts with titles that mentioned how happy people were or that it was the best episode ever. And once your finals are over (Finals totally suck, btw, so I wish you tons of luck, and hope they go well!), it'll be the prefect reward. On a slightly dorky note, I started crying five minutes into the episode after the previouslys. Like full on crying after five minutes. It was insane. (as well as embarassing, my friend was there and she had no clue why I was so emotional : P )
Now I need something new to come out on Fridays to motivate me through the week. I'll have to find out when Bambino will be on. I'm also looking forward to Liar's Game with Matsuda Shota and Erika Toda. And of course The Devil and Lee Jun Ki, as well as Joe Cheng's drama and the Exchange Love one. Although, it's really hard to wait inbetween episodes when they're a week apart. Anyways, good luck on your finals!

I didn't mean to click on it. It said pictures and somehow didn't cross my mind that it's screen caps, lol. I think the only other spoiler I knew of is the episode title since that was posted everywhere. There's some behind the scenes stuff now posted and i'm trying to avoid those until I see the finale. I'm glad I didn't read any ones review or live blog on the episode yet. Yeah, It's really hard to avoid those posts and the title alone gives it away. THANK YOU!! I sure really need all the good luck I can get!! :D AWWWW!! I'm scared I'll be bawling in my dorm too just because it's over and I won't see them anymore. :( Awww, yeah that's probably one of the reasons I don't like to watch doramas while people around. I tend to cry and people ask what's wrong..then I have to explain while blowing my nose ( ... )
