On my ISWAK craze

I cannot believe this. I am currently behind in watching Gossip Girl, which I never fail to watch while I spent 4 crazy nights watching It Started With A Kiss (ISWAK) and its sequel They Kiss Again (TKA).

I really got hooked on that romantic comedy series. I swear until now, 2 days after watching the whole thing, I still get kilig. I am super obsessed with the actors, Joe Cheng and Ariel Lin. They have such good chemistry. I really hope they become a couple in real life. Right now, I am watching Behind the Scenes stuff from youtube and I swear I can't stop myself from screaming out of kiligiligiliginess!!!!!


The story is about Xiang Qin (Ariel Lin) who has this huuuge crush on Zhi Shu (Joe Cheng). The problem is that Zhi Shu is a genius, having an IQ of 200, while Xiang Qin is stupid, having an IQ of only 75. Anyway, a tragedy befalls Xiang Qin when her house fell apart due to an earthquake. The good thing is that her father's friends learned about this and offered for them to stay in their house. Apparently, her father's friends were the parents of Zhi Shu. So Xiang Qin and Zhi Shu had to live together under one roof. Xiang Qin still tries to pursue Zhi Shu while Zhi Shu never fails to let her know how irritated he is of her. However, later on, Zhi Shu develops feelings for Xiang Qin. Season 1 ended with the wedding of Zhi Shu and Xiang Qin, wherein it was Zhi Shu wearing the gown and Xiang Qin wearing the tux. Hahahaha.


They Kiss Again starts with the honeymoon of Zhi Shu and Xiang Qin in Guam. TKA was about their married life as well as their life the university. TKA also focused on the stories of the secondary characters in the series. Towards the end, Xiang Qin learns that she has an eye problem that is not curable. This would cause her night blindness to worsen and her eyesight to weaken until she becomes completely blind. This scares her especially since she is suspected to be pregnant. She tries to runaway but in the end, she goes back to Zhi Shu.


The series is really good. It was based on the manga, Itazura Na Kiss. The author died unexpectedly and so the story was left unfinished (the series also had an open ending). But I recently learned that the author's husband is trying to finish it the way he think his wife would have wanted it to end. Oh boy, I wish they will also produce ISWAK 3.

Anyway, Joe Cheng and Ariel Lin will be starring in a new series, Love or Bread, which will be coming out in November. I hope they upload it soon on Crunchyroll or Veoh or Mysoju. Can't wait.


I lalalalalove ArJoe!!!!!!!!! They look sooo good together!!!

I GOT MARRIED LAST FRIDAY!

Hahaha. Well, not really. I recently came from a YFC-A's "Plevsem" last week. Our 3-day long task then was to make someone feel special. IC's angel and my angel decided to connive and planned out a mini-wedding thingy for us complete with flower girls, ring bearers (heart bearers kasi we had an exchange of origami hearts instead of rings), maid of honor (who kept on fixing an imaginary trail while I "walked down the aisle") a best man, an officiating "priest" and a choir singing our song.

Nakakailang super. Everyone's eyes were on us. Hahaha. I think everyone was kiligiligi. Hahaha. Anyway, I really did not know how to react. I sort of cried because I was shy and waaah I really did not know how to react. Hahahaha. It was funny.

Anyway, I looked at the pics that people posted on Multiply. It got me really kilig also. Hahahaha. But still..nakakahiya super. Hahaha.

Just one of the highlights of my Plevsem. :)
