After eating dinner in Flushing last night with my family, we passed by a vigil ceremony in front of the Flushing Library. My brother and I had donated some money to the victims of the 四川 Earthquake, though it wasn’t much, and I added a candle to the heart. When I got home, I somehow found myself crying in the shower.

Just finished watching America’s Next Top Model Cycle 10. I can’t believe Whitney was the winner! I mean, okay, she did have the stronger walk, but there’s still something really fake about her that I don’t like. I really wanted Anya to win because she looked more high-fashion and has a very sweet personality, despite her strange accent. *sigh* Well, congratulations to Whitney anyway, but to be honest, I really don’t know how many shows she’s going to get booked for. Compared to the other models on the runway, she was huge. Not that I have anything against plus-size girls, but that’s the truth. Models tend to be skinny. Guess I won’t be seeing Anya around much anymore… It’s so sad because I loved her pictures and even super hot Nigel Barker liked her. Meh. Wherever you wind up, hwaiting, Anya!

First of all, happy 19th birthday to Henry, AKA Chicken Wings. =) I hope you had a good one. We shall hang out this summer again.

In not-so-happy news, I’m sure most of you have heard about the devastating 7.8 earthquake in 四川, China yesterday. My mom and I basically spent the whole afternoon watching news coverage of the tragedy. It was so heartbreaking to see people lose their parents, mothers lose their children, and friends lose their friends. The impact was so enormous that even Vietnam, Pakistan, and Thailand felt it. And the ground there is still shaking. The roads were all cracked so people had to travel by foot to rescue the victims. It’s good to know Chinese people still care about each other. After this event, I guess the Tibetans won’t be back in the spotlight for a while. Even with the Olympics coming up, this just doesn’t seem to be China’s year.

So I just finished watching Brink of Law with Mom and Dad. It was actually a pretty good series towards the end, though I’ll admit I only watched bits of the beginning, so who am I to judge?

If you want an episode synopsis, I highly recommend K For TVB. My review will not go into depth about what happens but rather my reactions and thoughts on the show. Be warned, for those who haven’t watched it before, although this show is already considered “old,” there will be spoilers up ahead.

All right, let me first comment on the acting. The villains all did very well, which of course includes Michelle Yim and Elliot Yue, but surprisingly, Shirley Yeung was good, too. Then again, I’ve always hated her fake acting anyway so I guess it came in handy here. There were so many times I wanted to just slap that bitch across the face, though she is the best-looking female in the cast. But the Miss Hong Kong I really despised in this series was Kate Tsui because that girl can NOT act! Understandably, I guess, since she’s still fairly new compared to Shirley, but MAN! Pick someone else! She needs to get rid of that blank expression. Just look at the drama poster! You barely even notice she’s there! Steven Ma and Ron Ng were pretty good in this series, as expected. For some reason I never get tired of watching Steven play the valiant, clever hero in TVB series. Bernice’s acting also surprised me because it was quite decent since she played an experienced undercover cop which was very cool. I have to say, though, one of my favorite actresses in this series was Steven’s younger sister, Yoyo Chen. :p
