the annoying thing about watching a favourite series from 1999 is that awful nostalgic feeling that comes with it.
not that i would love to go back to 1999. i don't quite fancy any memories from that year. i guess i just enjoyed the evenings of catching this drama, at the same hour, every weekday nights. even before the series ended, i went on a search for the VCD - ah, welcome to the late 90s.
it wasn't an easy search, and i remember finding it from a stroke of luck. i bought it immediately, and was looking forward to surprise my sister with the purchase - she was the one who introduced me to this series.
perhaps it is this very simple pleasure, and weird nostalgic tidbit, that made me feel a little sad. i can't believe it's been 12 years! where did the time go? & what happened to these simple pleasures? before i know it, 12 years passed and tomorrow i have to go to work, with the weight of major museum festivals on my shoulders.
sometimes, just sometimes, i'd rather have books, exams, and teenage follies.
