boys over flowers (korean)

i love this drama!

haha. its currently airing in korean, only 3 episodes up til now. this is one of the only few korean dramas i like so far, including Full House and My Lovely Sam-Soon. to me, korean dramas are just not my cup of tea, its something to do with the sappy love story and slow-paced plot development etc.. haha.

but my my, i love this korean version of hana yori dango! the basic plot remains the same. fiesty/strong poor girl meets 4 rich and devastatingly good-looking kids. but further details and background info to each character is totally different. credits to the casting people and producers. all 4 main male actors are SO handsome! and i think this korean guy plays a very convincing character of "domyouji tsukasa" as in 道明寺. he bears a resemblance to Jerry Yan. the more i see the korean guy, the more he looks like Jerry Yan. which is not a bad thing, considering i find Jerry Yan very very handsome. haha. but he is great on his own lah. bcos the jap version is totally mis-cast. too short and scrawny and gu-niang. like, hello? how can he play the great domyouji? tsk tsk.

i have to say this again, the korean F4... very handsome!!!!! now i have to catch this series diligently every week. hehehe!!

singtel's MP3 Music Pack.

i received an sms yesterday, from SingTel service, saying my subscription for "MP3 Music Pack" will expire on 12/01/2009. i was like, what? i didnt subscribe to anything! then i remembered i had just re-contract my mobile line on 12/12/2008, so i went to find the re-contract agreement letter. the fine print at the bottom said "customers will enjoy 1st 30 days free subscription for MP3 Music Pack with the purchase of the music mobile phone. $5.35/mth applies thereafter. subscription will continue until customer unsubscribe form the service. dial *1626 to unsub"

what the f##k?? i went to seach on the internet for such a package, and i come across forums and discussions boards, seemed like ALOT of people are having this problem, and some even had difficulty to unsubscribe the service. some didnt know, until they realised they have been charged for 3mths.

anyway, i dialed *1626. an sms came in, saying i have to reply with services i wanted. i replied a "7" which is to unsub from content services. another sms came in, i had to reply "1" to unsub from Music Pack. then ANOTHER sms came in, it said "reply Y to confirm the unsubscription".. wah lau! and all these smses are to a 6 digit number. which probably means i will be charged extra cents for replying these smses. WAT THE F$$KIN HELL?? now i have to pay to unsubscribe from a service i did not even want to have? whats their problem?

i am very angry with the way SingTel do things. i know the fault is probably with the 3rd party services and contents. but SingTel actually allowed this kind of FORCED subscription? so not cool. i should not have re-contracted with them.

batman action figure

i bought this batman figurine today at the toys section in a dept store. it stands at abt 35cm. WOO HOO! i've said it many times before, that batman is my favourite hero of all time. i used to watch the batman animations on tv when i was a kid. i can still remember the theme song, which kept the suspense well, making batman mysterious and very much in the dark. haha.

anyway, i was clearing my drawers in my room, when i realised i've got 3 frikkin drawers full of my brother's toys. power rangers, ninja turtles, biker mice, captain planet, megazords, last action hero, jurassic park... WAH! to think i've wasted my drawers space all these years. and i dont find any of MY toys! my barbie dolls, polly pocket, ghost busters, dont have!!!! very sad.
