Eyes On Me


Eyes On Me - Wong Faye for Final Fantasy VIII

Whenever sang my songs
On the stage, on my own
Whenever said my words
Wishing they would be heard
I saw you smiling at me
Was it real or just my fantasy?
You'd always be there in the corner
Of this tiny little bar

My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you?
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you?

Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer

So let me come to you
Close as I want to be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper
How I love your peaceful eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you?

Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if you're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out then
You will know that you're not dreaming

Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then I will know
that you are no dreamer


It's an old song. It can be consider obsolete. However even after 100 years, to me it's a meaningful song. MayBe it's just me. Read the hightlighted parts. I was eating Bun With some orange juice while listening to it. You might or might not understand what Eye meant, but Eye just felt the lyrics describes some part of me. It something like a reflection of some of my feelings. Feelings that it's not what mere words can describe! Later, Eye have to go and Pee.

Gilmore Girls - 10% Prediction Correct.

In my previous post, I predicted this :

Rory will not go back and stay with her mother. She will not go back to Yale. In fact, she might break up with Logan or not depending on how severe the affect of the argument that she and Logan had and how much of the old Rory came back after the heavy shelling from Jess. What she will do is, go stay on her own, write a book or try to get into a newspaper company or not and start to plan for her future which she lost it after Logan's father "crushed" her during her internship.

Well,after Episode 9(Season 6), out of all that prediction I made for Episode 8(Season 6), only this is correct :

....try to get into a newspaper company....

Gilmore Girls trumped my prediction. And I have never been able to predict more than 10% for the Gilmore Girls storyline. And I am very good at predicting! That's is why Gilmore Girls has 6 Stars and first on my Watching List!!!

It's Jess to the rescue!

Looks like I spoke too soon about how Rory was slowly turning to the Dark Side. After the most recent episode of Gilmore Girls, it turns out that one of her former boyfriend Jess came to her rescue. After an argument with Jess, then another with her current boyfriend Logan, she finally "woke" up. Interesting storyline going on there. However, it would seem that she won't just go flying back to her mother's place nor will she go back to Yale. However, that's for the next few episode to tell. I am only predicting. However, if my prediction is correct, then it is going to be like this :

Rory will not go back and stay with her mother. She will not go back to Yale. In fact, she might break up with Logan or not depending on how severe the affect of the argument that she and Logan had and how much of the old Rory came back after the heavy shelling from Jess. What she will do is, go stay on her own, write a book or try to get into a newspaper company or not and start to plan for her future which she lost it after Logan's father "crushed" her during her internship.

That is how I predict it will happened or something similiar. However, this by no means is going to be the storyline as I am not the creator. I can only predict the next moves of the storyline based on my own observation of the Gilmore Girls storyline from Season 1 to 5 so far.

So, will Rory still turned into Darth Rory? or will be see the light and turned back into the old Rory that lots of people grew to love. Or will she become someone else?

Desperate Housewives Desperate for Ideas?

It was a hit soap opera in the making. Desperate Housewives was the talk of 2004 when it hit the US TV series scene and it was going strong when it ended Season 1. Now, several episode into Season 2, and it is struggling at the ratings losing out to CSI. I have already watched until the latest episode of Season 2 and I agree with it's rating losses! This season is a bit disappointing and there are a few things that I thought that is causing it's rating slips.

Firstly, from the start of Season 2, they are trying to make storyline arcs for all 4 of the Desperate Housewives with Susan Myers hogging the most. Lynette fell by the wayside while Bree and Gabrielle gets the rest. It's all about Susan,Susan and more Susan! Geez, and the mystery family that just moved into Wisteria Lane make their presense felt to ........ Susan again!

Secondly, Lynette isn't getting any storyline arc from the looks of it. As I have said, she fell by the wayside and you rarely see her around with the other Housewives. Ok, maybe because she now has to work. However, apart from scenes from her office and her house, she somehow doesn't have the exciting factor.

Thirdly, they are focusing too much on Susan. Neglecting Lynette and making Gabrielle and Bree picking the crumbs of the storyline.

This is what I feel is going to bring the downfall of Desperate Housewives, however, I also know it is just the beginning of Season 2. They probably are Desperate for some ideas to get them along till the end of the season. Well, hopefully they (the writers) won't be Desperate for too long. I like to watch Desperate Housewives, but hopefully, it will get better after some fine-tuning. If not, all is not well in paradise, as CSI is still hitting the heavy blows.

Bleach - Shinigami vs Shinigami

I finally managed to finish watching 55 episodes of Bleach this morning (now, lacking lots of sleep after waking up at noon).

Yeah, I know the storyline still isn't finished yet, and it won't be finish for another 50+ or so episode or maybe even more. However, right up until episode 55, there was one nagging question that I want to know about the current story arc in Bleach. The question is "Why the hell is the Shinigami fighting each other without asking question first or even finding out the truth first?". After 5th Squad Captain Aizen is assassinated, all hell breaks loose. 11th Squad Captain Zaraki is one crazy hell of a Shinigami, he only likes to fight and doesn't care about what's is going on. 4th Squad Captain Unohana seems like a peaceful person, however she also failed to ask. 12th Squad Captain is one crazy Shinigami and I wonder why he can become a Shinigami in the first place? Then there is 8th Squad Captain Kyouraku and 13th Squad Captain Ukitake even though did the right thing to do, didn't even offer some arguments, they both also fail. As for 6th Squad Captain Kuchiki Byakuya, I can't figure out his "I am God" kind of thinking. 2th Squad Captain is another one that is blinded by the word "Justice" and doesn't know what is wrong or right. And the rest are almost the same. Some sees the truth, some see nothing at all and some just believes the lies.

Good guys fighting Good guys. It makes you wonder if the Hollows are really the one that is real Mastermind in this.

Jigoku Shoujo - We will take revenge on your behalf!

Somewhere in the vast sea of the Internet, there's a website that can only be accessed at the stroke of midnight. Known as the Jigoku Tsushin, rumor has it that if you post a grudge there, the Jigoku Shoujo will appear and drag whoever torments you into the inferno. Very little is known about the girl - all we know for sure is that she lives with her equally enigmatic grandmother, that three magical straw dolls accompany and serve her, and that whenever a posting on the Jigoku Tsushin moves her, she becomes the Jigoku Shoujo.

Charmed is only good right up until Season 4. Half of Season 5 and above all sucks.

Gilmore Girls Season 6 - Aftermath of Season 5.

Season 6 of Gilmore Girls is really heating up the series. At the end of Season 5 saw Rory moving into her grandparent's house in which Lolerai found out to her bleeding heart and was left wondering why Rory had betrayed her by not going to her and instead going to her grandparents. Then she also was haul up in court for trying to steal a yacht with her boyfriend Logan. Add all that up and you find mother and daughter not talking to each other.

And also, at the end of Season 5, Lolerai proposed to Luke. Luke without hesitating said yes in the Season 6 premiere while Lolerai wasn't so sure it was the right thing to do.

So, in Season 6 so far, Rory was haul up to court and was slapped with a 300 hour community service. Rory looks lost and doesn't know what to do after she was "Crushed" by her boyfriend's father saying that she doesn't have what it takes to be a journalist. So, she dropped out of Yale and her grandmother Emily finds her a job at the DAR (Daughters of the American Revolution).

While over at Stars Hollow, Luke moved into Lolerai's house. And Lolerai got herself a dog. This is what I don't really understand, if she already got Luke, why she needs a dog? One reason I figure out is that she isn't really serious in wanting to marry Luke yet. Maybe later in the future, but certainly not sooner.

Luke on the other hand is trying very hard to follow Lolerai's each and every move. What he dislikes, he still has to do it. Talk about the power of love. Luke is indeed dedicated!

Meanwhile, over at the Dark Side(always wanted to say that), Rory is trying to avoid pondering about her future. In fact, she just want to avoid the whole thing for the rest of her life from what she is doing.

So, as this season progress, the question that I want to know is that, will Rory turned into Darth Rory or will she be save by Luke Skywalker and Lo(Leia)rai?


Note : I mispell Lolerai's name on purpose. Don't ask me why.

Ghost Whisperer - A Series Gone Horribly Wrong

It really was a refreshing change when Ghost Whisperer came about into the US TV series scene. I was excited. Not because Jennifer Lowe Hewitt was in it. Don't really care, unless it is Nicole Kidman (Best darn actress there is). Not because it is about Ghosts. But because of the storyline. Yup, it was different. Or so I thought it was different. I was not only DEAD wrong. I was MISLEAD into thinking this could be the series that didn't have "Scriptwriting 101". Oh boy, was I fooled!

Maybe the first few episode was really a refreshing change, but after that I would say it is a series gone horribly wrong.
First, the storyline is leading to a "Nemesis will appear". Secondly, not only one nemesis, but TWO nemesis. It is not that having a nemesis isn't a bad idea at all. I don't dispute that having a nemesis will make the series more exciting. However, from my point of view, in this type of series. Having a nemesis is a very very bad idea.

Ratings aside, I don't really care if having a nemesis will "skyrocket" ratings. It is not about the ratings. It is about storylines and about more original type of storylines.

What the Ghost Whisperer storyline is heading, I don't really like it. Yes, the emotional part of the storyline is really good, but what the story arc is heading, it is like a head on collision with a 10-ton truck or a concrete wall.
I don't see the need for a nemesis in Ghost Whisperer. There is more ways to make a storyline "orginal" than just adding a nemesis or two.

Paradise Kiss

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us


Yukari is a typical high-school student who listens to her parents and attends school everyday. As she starts to question her way of life, she encounters a group of fashion design students who has a clothing label known as "Paradise Kiss". The group needs to find a model to showcase their designs in an up-coming fashion show and decides to pick Yukari instead. Initially, Yukari was reluctant to be associated with this seemingly eccentric group, but eventually, she realises that they are really nice people. Furthermore, their passion and enthusiasm to follow their ideals and dreams make Yukari realise that she has not been enjoying her life and this motivated her to pursue her own dreams.
