Stairways To Heaven

I am now addicted to a Korean drama serial called, Stairways To Heaven, on Channel U every Sunday 2-4pm. Found it to be very touching. Here's the storyline:
Five years later, Song Joo returns home to Seoul, South Korea to bring Jung Suh with him to America to study. Song Joo captures a glimpse of Jung Suh waving at him from afar. For a brief moment, Song Joo can almost touch his heaven. However, he arrives to Jung Suh's side too late. She's been killed - or so Yuri wants everyone to believe. Song Joo never gets over her death. Jung Suh isn't dead though however, she's alive but loses her memory. Her step brother, Tae Hwa, has decided to run away and hide Jung Suh away. He loves her so much that he couldn't have asked for a better gift that she doesn't remember he is her step brother. He lies to Jung Suh that she is his girl friend.

Another five years later, Song Joo returns to Seoul from America with Yuri (Jung Suh's step sister). Yuri is determined to make Song Joo marry her and will do anything for it to happen (yes, that included attempting to kill Jung Suh). Song Joo captures a glimpse of a girl who looks like Jung Suh in the mall. He can't believe his eyes and runs to find her. In his relentless search for this girl, he wonders if it is a ghost or if he's simply gone crazy. Her name is Kim Ji Soo (name given to her by Tae Hwa). She looks exactly like Jung Suh down to the very last detail. Song Joo refuses to let her out of his sight because he believes that it is Jung Suh.

Song Joo will do anything to try to make Kim Ji Soo remember if she is Jung Suh. In the meantime, he realizes maybe it really isn't her and he can't force her to believe she is someone for the sake of his good. Song Joo starts to fall in love with Kim Ji Soo the more he spends time with her. However, Tae Hwa and Yuri are determined to not let that happen. As the story progresses, Jung Suh regains her memory and remembers her love for Song Joo. She also remembers that Tae Hwa is her step brother and is enraged at him for lying to her all this time. Tae Hwa feels guilty for all the suffering he caused Jung Suh and decides to go back to loving her from afar, letting her go to the one she truly loves.

Jung Suh finds out that she is going blind and that she has eye cancer. Saddened, she does not want Song Joo to know because he will be sad that she will die. So Jung Suh lies to Song Joo that she is going back to Tae Hwa because Tae Hwa needs her. She wants Song Joo to remain her friend. Jung Suh, blind now, pours her heart to who she thinks is Tae Hwa, her true feelings for Song Joo. But she doesn't know that the entire time, it was Song Joo who she was talking to. Song Joo, crying so loud, falls to the floor knowing that his true love is going to die.

Song Joo marries Jung Suh. A sad Tae Hwa escorts Jung Suh down the stairs to the wedding. But he is happy that she is happy with her true love. At the wedding, the truth is revealed about Yuri's attempt to kill Jung Suh and the suffering she caused everyone. The step mother goes crazy and Yuri is arrested.

Song Joo wants to donate his eyes to Jung Suh but the doctors say they cannot accept donors who are still alive. Tae Hwa, with all his love, kills himself so that he can give his eyes to Jung Suh as his last gift to her. To give her happiness as she gave to him when he was alive.

Jung Suh finds out it was Tae Hwa who died so she could live and see again. However, the cancer had spread to her brain that she would die eventually. Song Joo, who loves Jung Suh so much, can't bare the thought of losing her again. In the end, by the beach Song Joo and Jung Suh walk to the end of the road. Jung Suh walks step by step into Heaven and will wait to meet her true love Song Joo again.

Song Joo plays a song on the piano to send to Jung Suh in Heaven. He screams, "Jung Suh, are you well? Jung Suh...."


Such touching love story...

She's Back!!!

After 10days of returning back to China for some exams, she is back! Yes, my sister in law is back and back with lots of stuff from her home. I would dare to say, she moved her whole room or house back with her. All her electrical appliances, clothes, ornaments and barang-barangs in bags and bags of them. Looks like she is really moving in for good. Wonder when their marriage would be?

In 4 days, 2007 would be gone and 2008 would be coming... Used to dread 2007 coming and guess I had my reasons to dread it as whatever I had dread all happened in 2007. Thus, I am kind of glad that 2007 is going to over soon but what life would be 2008 would also be a big question mark. Just hope that 2008 would be a better year for me, my close friends, my family, my in law's family and lastly, my husband as well. If asked what joyfully memorable event that I remembered in 2007, I would say none because this year was a painful hell of torture for me, many hateful events has happened, my life was greatly affected and my emotions were on a roller coaster ride.
All the best for 2008.

TAURUS:
General Forecast- Grounded and practical Taurus will experience extra boosts of optimism and find time to bring creative projects to the forefront, this year. Your personal needs will be met the more you tune into your spiritual side, and your growth will be directly connected with your ability to accept your deep philosophical transformation. You will continue to work out how you can use your creative side to improve your finances.

Methodically organizing your perceptions as they come to you will enhance your career. Weighing choices carefully as they arise before making decisions will be very important, this year. Take advantage of this expansive time and act upon your desire to enroll in new classes. You could greatly benefit by finishing that degree or get that certificate you've been working on. Likewise, educational trips and romantic vacations exploring different philosophies and arts will give you insight and help you jumpstart your projects and articulate new ideas. You derive nourishment and balance taking sojourns to the mountains or lakeside retreats. You will also benefit by sharing the creative wisdom you have acquired, and see results as your ideas are folded into mainstream values.

This is a good time to follow that urge to express your deep inner changes in your personal growth and publish or write your own books. You enjoy sharing your musical talents, and creating a new musical piece is a very strong possibility. You can be very successful in expressing your higher principles, whether it is work related or community oriented. Expect monetary returns when you put your ideas into practice.

Love- This could be a good year for you to settle down in a stable relationship. Birth of a child in the family is likely for many Tarureans. Social life will be enjoyable and there will be lot of festivities in the family due to various auspicious events materializing for various members of your family much to your delight and satisfaction.

Career- You will spend most of this year exercising your creativity and helping others, which will bring you great financial rewards and success. A high-minded and productive energy will focus your emotional sensitivity to the needs of your co-workers and associates. Your expansive ideas will serve humanity in a bigger way through understanding your own basic needs. You find, as you channel your creative talents, you easily come upon opportunities to be of service to others.

You need to continually work on clearly communicating and promoting your ideas and surrounding yourself with a team of people to support them. You are a hard worker and expect others to help and do their share. With all of these gifts, a position or power or promotion is likely. In this leadership position, you will find a platform for teaching others how to succeed. By the end of the year, all of these changes will lead to the financial rewards you seek, leaving you in a much more secure financial position.

Health- You will generally enjoy good health. However, you should be more careful while driving vehicles, or handling machinery during the summer months. Those above 50 years should watch their weight and strive to keep their vital physiological statistics (blood pressure, weight, heart-rate, etc.) within the normal range by regular walk and regulated diet.

My Ultimate Gamble

Today, in state of anger and full enraged, I made a gamble with God. Yes, just days before Christmas, instead of rejoicing on Jesus's birth, I made a gamble with God. I somehow know that I would be the ultimate loser even if He loses the gamble. But I am very sure and definete that I would to take this gamble with Him.
I had enough of sadness, roller coaster rides, false happiness and lack of my own personal needs that He has provided and shown me. I am sick and tired of living on His world with His rules in His ideas and own arrangements for me. I know He is the Almighty One who is the ultimate ruler of each and every of our lives. I know He was the one sacrificed his son, Jesus, to die on the cross for our sins. But I have once heard, even God ain't perfect! I used to defend my God with whenever someone tries to argue with me on my religion but this time, I feel, see and even agree that God ain't perfect too. He has made a mistake on me, fooled me, created an error with my life.
Thus, as I am typing this blog entry, I am still stubborn and hard headed to gamhle with Him. Should I win or lose, by CNY, I will know the answer!
I am not going to reveal what I gambled with Him on and on what will determine that I win or lose... Only He and I will know...
I just hope I win this gamble... But somehow, I know I have already lost...

Random Blog Post ; Random Blog

I was scouring the net randomly and found this post on a random blog site of someone's marriage blog. Interesting and somewhat true (reminds me of my marriage cum BGR relationship):

What have I learnt from 2 years of marriage?

1) We may fight and quarrel, but we still make up.
2) The bed is greener on the wife's side.
3) What's the fuss we hear about toilet seat? It takes a second to it flip up/down.
4) I may have paid for the CableTV subscription but the wife owns the remote control.
5) It is okay (so far!) to play computer games so long as the wife is kept occupied/entertained.
6) Vacuuming and mopping the home is worth the trade-off to escape ironing and washing socks.
7) Don't become too good at cooking instant mee. It becomes your speciality and responsibility.
8) If the wife is quiet and not talking, it means she is unhappy with you.
9) I take longer to get ready than her.
10) She's got 101 horrible things to say about me but fortunately I'm the blog owner. :)

Alvin & The Chipmunks


Watched the show last night and it brought back some childhood memories of the cartoon that I used to watch after doing my homework at my granny's house. Theodore, is the cute, shy chipmunk. Simon, the clever one but has to wears spectacles to see properly and Alvin, the mischevious one who is always getting into troubles... Heehee... Nice show...
