today's rating shall be on 4 dramas with a common theme - seasons.
image source - deviantArt
Spring, Summer, Autumn & Winter - these four seasons potrays a different kind of romance in the following dramas =)
* * * * * * *
Featured - Spring Waltz (Korean Drama)
the last and final addition to the "seasons dramas", this is practically a compilation of all the other 3 dramas. although i really loved this drama, i found it a bit too draggy! details are good, but don't let them bore your audience. other than the storyline being kinda a summary of all of the other 3 films, the ost and scenes of this drama is amazing!! one of the best overall ost i've ever heard, and my favorite track of all would be "One Love" by Loveholic. (and overall, meaning all the songs and not only a couple of them, because most of the ost that i've heard ain't really worth mentioning, maybe other than this and goong's)
and another thing that i really like about this drama is how it also showcases the story of the calefares in the show. other than the blooming romance of the main characters, expect a little romance from the extras haha.
lastly, a good script is useless witout good casts..
서도영 Seo Do Young
i dunno why, but everytime i see him in this drama i will associate him with a teddy bear ._. lol
한효주 Han Hyo Joo
although she looks like a plain jane in this drama, there seem to be a unique-ness in her plain simple look that i find really attractive <3
Daniel Henney
don't like him, don't hate him, not a fan of him - no comments.
이소연 Lee So Yeon
she's always playing as the "bad" person and as much as i like her, i kinda hated her in this drama lol. lets just put it as me having a love-hate relationship with her =p
Caleb's Rating: 
/5
* * * * * * *
Summer Scent (Korean Drama)
when 2 hearts (or in this case 3 hearts) beat as one. i don't really wanna say much about this drama, because everything i say will become a spoiler haha. thats how good this drama is, but just to give you a slight idea of this drama, it's basically about how a heart transplant changed the life of a lady and twisted the fate of her love life. so if you wanna know more about this drama, just go and watch it =) (you won't regret it!)
ohh and before i checked the casts of this drama, i thought that the main actress was Ha Ga-In (one of my favourite korean artists) =( because Son Ye-Jin really look like Ha Ga-In lol.. apart from that, i really loved this drama. the storyline is amazing, and they had a great ensemble of casts.
Caleb's Rating: /5
* * * * * * *
Autumn Tale (Korean Drama)
a story of mistaken identity. i found the starting rather ridiculous, because i don't think it'll ever happen even if it's a lousy hospital lol. (if you wanna know what happened, watch the drama) and as much of it being a romance drama, don't expect a "happily ever after" ending for this one.
honestly speaking, even though i cried in a few of the scenes in this drama, the script was the worst among the bunch and the storyline is quite unusual. it's not unusual in a weird way, but in a way that it's not how normal people will do/react. for example, will you ever talk to your personal chamber maid (working in the hotel) about all your problems even if you're feeling very vexed? in addition, thats your first conversation with her and have never met her before..
Caleb's Rating: /5
* * * * * * *
Winter Sonata (Korean Drama)
why can't singapore have more seasons other than summer and rain (if you even count that as a season..) anyway, this drama starts with a sorrow tune with one of the characters dying in an accident. it then moves on years later, which is where the complication starts. then, people will start to get trapped in the core of a love rectangle and you know how it continues.. but as usual, those who are destined will be together no matter what <3
i really like the progression of this show - not too fast yet not too slow, and i wanna say that my guess about the storyline was spot on! lol
Caleb's Rating: /5
* * * * * * *
so there you have it, ratings on the 4 seasons of love =) you can catch all these dramas at mysoju.com or aznV.TV

biyane yo~ was out almost the entire day yesterday hence, me not posting the details for tomorrow's outing. so here's the plan..
Participants
- Gin (Going)
- Queen (Going)
- Wency (Going)
- ME! (Going)
- Kelvin (Only Night Activity)
- Amos (Not Going)
- Riah (Not Going)
- Clarence (MIA - No Reply)
Destinations
- Imperial Treasure (La Mian Xiao Long Bao) [Marina Square]
- Esplanade or Settlers
Meeting Time: 7pm 6.30pm (CHANGED! - sent u guys a sms already)
Meeting Venue: Outside the Restaurant
1. reason for the change in time is due to not being able to make any reservations after 6pm on weekends. so if possible, reach earlier so that we don't have to queue up when it's crowded.
2. reason for change of plans for night activity is that i just remembered (after queen reminded me) that there's construction stuff by the river at esplanade, hence we've got a choice of chilling inside esplanade at the area with those cushioned benches, go to settlers - suggested by queen, or if you guys really wanna drink, go to some bar.

this is gonna be a short update on my life..
have been rather busy working recently and whenever i come back from it, i feel really tired and don't really feel like doing anything (even watching 1 or 2 episodes of drama before i sleep don't feel as entertaining). good news is that today's the last day of my work! but bad news is that the shopaholic in me is gonna spend almost every cent i earned when i get my pay for this month lol!
anyway, after i finished my work today, went for a bit of window shopping with gin-chan. saw a bag and cardigan which i really liked so i'm gonna rush down to those shops tmr to get em' when i receive my pay =x there goes half of my pay
anyway the thing is that when i came back from work and fell into a deep slumber, i had a nightmare. although it was rather scary, i didnt wake up right after it and the weird thing is that i didn't remember anything about it till the sound of a thunder triggered my memory of it (during dinner)..
"i remembered that i saw a ghostly figure TWICE outside a window when i was in a room with wency and someone else (and i'm the only one who saw it..) at that time i was all curled up in a foetus position, trembling in complete fear at a small corner, while the other two tried to console me. and then the later part or maybe before, cause i can't really remember, was me running to a shop to get something."
what a weird dream nightmare =x it's either a bad omen or just me watching too much dramas lol
anyway because i have got a lot of stuff that i would've liked to post just that i'm not so free and am rather tired now, i'll just list down all the topics which i intend to do before i actually enter the army!
