This day, last year

Facebook has this application or widget that shows a person's status or one of it on the same day, last year.

A status two years ago.

September 5, 2010
I remember this status in particular because I remember a promise made to me. It was agreed upon that on December 21, 2010, you were supposed to come to the Philippines and celebrate your birthday and the holidays with me. How can I forget? I looked forward to that day every minute of every day. I was so excited, I could be with you again.

Do you remember now?
Remember, remember?


You didn't come. Do you remember why you didn't come? Because we had a "fight" I was too busy with school; having two production classes, I barely had time. Remember how you got jealous of the people I worked with and the professor that I had a crush on? Yeah, those were the reasons why you didn't come.

It doesn't add up, you know. How can those petty things be a huge burden for you not to come here? It really broke me, not having you over. It was definitely frustrating but what could I do? Buying a ticket to go where you are sounds easy but I would have never been allowed knowing that you would be there, my parents would never say yes to that idea.

Now?

We're not together anymore, we're barely friends.

I don't know if I still want that kind of set up - a long distance relationship. I don't know if I can keep waiting any longer for you. I don't know if I can keep holding on to those empty promises of you going here. One thing's for sure though, I still want you.

Dorama

I started watching Asian dramas back in high school. A friend of mine suggested one drama that will definitely get me hooked - she was right, I was hooked the moment I watched it. This is not including the dramas I've been watching on TV since I was a kid, watching dramas in high school meant watching it online or downloading it.

It was a long process though - if I was watching a drama that was currently airing. We waited each week for the raw video to come out then it took another week for it to be subbed. When high school was over, that phase was over as well.

With the course that I'm currently taking up, watching dramas is definitely of help - especially for me because I want to work for TV.

Recently, I've been watching this drama called Coffee House. It's a Korean Drama that was aired last year. I'm not as adventurous as I used to be when it comes to watching dramas that's why it takes me a while to choose or look for a drama that I want to watch. That fact that it was aired last year is also of help because that means I don't have to wait weekly for a new episode to be uploaded or subbed.
