Holidays

Now's the holiday period. 3 weeks in fact. I have 3 weeks of freedom minus about 1 week of doing project work and 4 days of training for an event, i have about 1 week and 3 days to enjoy life before having to return to school and be buried under all the work, notes and more projects. LOVELY

Anyways, since i am enjoying life (by that, i mean watching dramas and movies), i plan to have lots of fun doing so. I wanna go to a fish spa of course by the end of this holiday.

It is where lots of fishes kinda like suck your legs to get rid of the bacteria or something, it is very VERY ticklish, i wanna give it a try! The freshly cleaned and exfoliated skin will feel smooth to the touch :)

So, like i said, i will be watching lots of dramas and movies. Recently, my dad bought this cable TV or something and i now have access to LOTS of movies and dramas.

The drama i am watching right now is 公主嫁到. The english name of the show is 'Can't Buy Me Love'

It's about this 3rd princess who initially, was forced to marry a Tibetan King but using her wit and charm, she convinced the Dowager to let the 3rd princess marry her true love that she faked. Meanwhile, the largest gold manufacturer in Chang'an is being deceived, making the business fall into trouble. The 2nd son therefore has to marry the 3rd princess to save the family business. This fits perfectly with the 3rd princess's plan and she agreed to marry the guy. However, it's not love at first sight for both of them. They met before on the streets and carry a slight hatred for the other. The guy had said on the streets (in chinese) (i remembered this because it was sooo funny):

This is when both of them were being separated and pulled away when the 2 wanted to fight each other

Guy: 我看到你一次就打你一次!!!   (i'll hit you one time if i see you again!!!!!)

Gal: 我看到你一次就打你两次!!!!!!!!  (i'll hit you two times if i see YOU again!!!!!!!!)

It was soo damned hilarious. I just love watching comedies especially Romantic Comedies! <3

Anyways, they bicker a lot and in many very funny ways. The princess has 4 other sisters but she and the sisters are not of the same mother. Maybe because of this, the 4 do not like her. All of them always compare their husbands, how skillful they are and stuff.

Then, whenever the 3rd princess have to meet them or the dowager or the evil concubine, she and the husband would put up a facade that they're so deeply in love when they're NOT. They slowly start to like each other later on in the series.

Then, there are the other characters. The 3rd brother of the Gold Manufacturer likes this girl he saved from kidnappers. She was alone in the big city so the 3rd brother let her help out in the household so she could have food and shelter as she had nowhere to go. She is a very strong gal but very naive and he has to help her out most of the time. He gradually start to have feelings for her.

 

I'm only at episode 19 now so, can't say much about the drama YET :)
