This post has been in my draft folder for ages, because it took me so long to format (and what’s more, with school kicking me in the ass). Consider this an attempt to immortalize one of my favourite scenes in Summer’s Desire! The accompanying text is from the original novel by Ming Xiao Xi. Sorry I’m too [...]

I’m experimenting again! Hehe. This time my interest happens to be hair. So each post in this series of 【hairtalk】 will feature a popular female actress with wondrous hair (imho), and the star of today is none other than… *drumroll* Barbie Hsu!

In both shows, one character thinks the other is not straight (lesbian/gay) because of a lie, and end up staying together and falling [...]

I’m watching episode 16 of Taiwanese drama Autumn’s Concerto and Hua Tuo Ye has finally won me over with his parting scene with Ady An’s Liang Mu Cheng. When he said, “It’s only been 6 years..”, my heart really went out to him. I never considered Hua Tuo Ye as a sizeable opponent to Ren Guang Xi in vying for Mu Cheng’s affections; [...]
