This weekend is kind of mixed. We had a long break thanks to the holiday for Christ's Ascension, from Thursday down to Sunday (which is today). I was supposed to spend a happy, lovely, and laid-back free time at home with Mom and Sis, playing games, enjoying TV programs, watching dramas and anime, fangirling like a crazy one...

I am not the one who was sick, if you worried a little. :P

Late at night, actually just around an hour after midnight, early in the beginning of Saturday, we received a call that Mom's mother (so my maternal grandmother) fell ill. Heart attack, it seemed. She was unconscious and brought immediately to hospital... None of her child was around to help, it was another family. Mom rushed over to her place, which is not at this city, Friday afternoon. She would return tomorrow night. Well, that left me with a task to look after Sis, although it was taken over completely by my aunt who used to take care of her before...

Now that sounds like I was back to being 'jobless', but it was boring since I had no one to talk to. :(

Problem solved a bit when I went to visit a friend's house to play couple of hours on Saturday afternoon. And by going back to boarding house today. ... Or no. Since I have classes tomorrow. Starts early, ends late. And seems like it's going to be boring.

"Ah, stress!"

This Korean drama has been keeping me occupied these last few weeks. It revived a hidden, sleeping fangirl part inside of me. It unleashed my fangirlism in such a crazy way that it made me feel so high up on the air almost everyday watching the scenes and wondering what would happen next. As crazy as I could be, I decided to write a review even though the series has not ended yet. Well, it will end this week, two more episodes to go after all. :(

Obvious warning, spoilers ahead, as much as I try to keep it as superficial as possible, so do NOT read if you do NOT want to be spoiled!

All in all, I didn't regret watching this drama at all. I'm glad I liked Lee Seung Gi from before, from Brilliant Legacy. I checked K2H because of him, and didn't regret it at all. In fact it colored my days waiting for new episodes and with the amazing soundtracks.

I so can't wait to see how this story would conclude. AhHa rocks! <3
