my guilty pleasure

I used to watch KDramas for fun during second year. I'd keep my laptop on even in the wee hours so I can finish just one more episode. However, that just one more episode excuse crawled its way into my mind all the time and prevented me from keeping track of the time. I'd say that excuse again and again, and before knowing it, it would be 4 AM or so the next time I look at the wallclock.

Recently, I rediscovered my penchant—not really penchant, but rather, minor interest— for KDramas. I always say that they are perfect for, as I like to call it, romantically-deprived people. Through KDramas, you can get your daily dose of "hoity-toity" even without a significant other. Some people watch KDramas to forget about their bitterness in failed love-related pursuits, but I patronize (some) KDramas because they're perfect virtual best friends. They can make me laugh my pants off to the point that anyone who sees me will think I'm insane for laughing alone (Oops). But hey, I'm serious about this. If your sense of humor is at least 20% similar to mine, you're sure to have at least one good laugh while watching an episode.

During rare occasions, I also manage to find pieces of advice that are worth reflecting on. Like, why you should never give up even when times get hard. Why it almost always pays to be nice and friendly. Why you should love yourself first before giving your heart to someone.

This post may not be making sense (like my previous posts) but anyway. The latest KDrama I'm watching is one that I saw in ABS the last time I switched the TV on (that was a long, long time ago, trust me). It's about a friendship that, despite its own share of uncertainties (the girl lived with the guy because she thought he was gay, how weird is that), blossomed into love. Somehow, it makes me want to find a best friend like that too. Best friend and boyfriend rolled into one. Hmm, someday.

I feel kinda stupid for watching this, partly because it's like admitting that I'm an LMH fangirl (which I'm not), but I get to laugh real hard every day because of this show. And even for that alone, I think wasting time is kinda worth it.

Anyway, there you go, guys. I guess it's safe to say that you've been exposed to one quirky side of me by now.
