[ANIME REVIEW] Honey and Clover I and II

Hello guys!

I spent my spring break watching anime and I recently finished this anime called " Honey and Clover". I saw many good reviews on MAL about it so I thought that i'd give it a try. 

To be honest, when I already started the first episode before but stopped halfway because I didn't like the drawing/quality? I was still young back then.. so I rewatched the first ep (actually the whole series) and I actually really enjoyed it. At first I thought there wouldn't be much comedy in this anime because they were mostly all adults (I am not saying that adults can't be funny but I thought the genre was more seinen than shoujo). But this anime is actually pretty funny haha. I did laugh at some eps, the one that really cranks me up is Morita. He is always cheerful and random but yet he's super talented. 

The anime covers a lot of realistic events that could happen in real life.. such as unrequited love (a lot), future paths, meaning of life [...]

Although what I am about to say might not make sense with what I said earlier but... the drawing is actually really pretty and nice. The characters are pretty well drawn. I really like how they drew the eyes and the hair(especially Hagu-chan, with her different hairstyles throughout the series).

If you guys are looking for a good enjoyable anime, I'd recommend this one. It also have a bit of slice of life(which I really like), comedy with a bit of romance. 

Rating : 8/10

Friends

Lately I've been wondering if I were a good friend... Actually, I am not the kind who would text my friends 24/7, especially during school days.  And I rarely ask them how they have been going... But I am still grateful for having such wonderful friends who have accepted this bad habit of mine!

Shoebox

I recently grew an interest in Epik High, more specifically in Tablo, which is one of the rapper in this group. He is in the show "The return of superman" with Haru, his daughter. It's been a week that I've started watching this show and it's really good! I did cry at some point, when Tablo talked about his father... this part was really emotional.

To end this post, here are the tracks from their latest album that has been playing on repeat on my ipod:

"Spoiler" and "Happen Ending"
Tablo looks so good in this MV omg

"Born Hater"
This song features a lot of rappers... including Mino from Winner (Only realized after watching the MV)

GOODBYE BRACES

Hi guys! So today is a very special day because I can officially say goodbye to my braces after 2 and a half year ! I keep licking my teeth because it's so smooth(compare to the braces). For now, I have to wear my containers 24/7 for 6 months which is not that bad. I am patient hehe

KDRAMA : MY LOVE FROM THE STAR

Hi guys! So I pretty much spent my spring break watching korean dramas, which was kinda unexpected. My plans were to work out and rewatch one of my favorite anime "Kimi Ni Todoke". I guess... nope. I believe the last time I watched a korean drama was "Playful Kiss" ? I did start some drama here and there like "School 2013" "Heirs" "City Hunter" but never really finish all of them.

So, I've seen many people online saying that "My Love from the Star" was a really good drama and it's a must watch. I read the plot and when I first saw "Alien", I went mehhh. The drama doesn't look good... BUT GUYS. EXCEPTION FOR THIS DRAMA, DO NOT READ THE PLOT. Just remember that the hot Kim Soo Hyun is the main character and that is enough to make you soak in this awesome drama.

The actual story is really good and I also really like every actor playing in this drama. Jun Ji Hyun, the one who's doing Cheon Song Yi... god. Her acting is so good. At first I didn't think that she was THAT pretty but as I was watching her live-acting... I realized why people thinks she is pretty. She actually got that charm on her face that makes her pretty. Plus not to mention her beautiful hair and legs.. ugh.

Also, the OST is actually so good.. "YOU ARE MY DESTINY... YOU AREEE MY DESTINY". I seriously downloaded all the OST.

To end this post, I think that everyone should give it a try because it's really a good romance drama. The kissing scenes aren't awkward and they are actually quite..... hot OK YES I SAID IT.

Ao Haru Ride

So I just saw the anime guide for summer 2014 and guess what?! My favourite manga is coming out as an anime! I AM LITERALLY DYING IN FRONT OF MY SCREEN RIGHT NOW. And what's even better is that.. it's Kaji Yuki who will be doing Kou... and he's the one who did Eren for Shingeki No Kyojin. OK I CAN'T.WAIT.

I ate french fries

I made plans with my high school friends, Shukria and Rola because I haven't seen them since a super long time, even though Shukria and I both attend the same college. Actually, I haven't seen her since the end of this semester! 

We went to eat at Barbie's. It took us forever to choose what to eat. In fact I wanted to try their pizzaghetti, (super unhealthy I know,but I really love eating spaghetti) but I ended up ordering the smoked meat club sandwich. 

As you can see from the picture, the plate is super huge. Look at the amount of french fries... I ate 3/4 of it and now feels super guilty but I went yolo haha. The sandwiches are so huge that I ended up eating it with a fork and knife. Furthermore, I must say that this 12$ plate is worth its price because of the huge portion that is served. 

For this special occasion, I went a bit fancy. I wore a blue blouse with a silver chain necklace.

Ok that is not really fancy but it is, for me. 

After eating all of this bad food, I woke up with a puffy face! No more junk food for me.

Club sandwich anyone?

I went brunch with my high school friends, at Club Sandwich, the one in the Champlain Mall.

When I go brunching, I usually order a benedictine but this time I didn't feel like it and I didn't want to order eggs and sausages... so I ordered something from the lunch menu. I took a "tuna salad sandwich". I actually regretted not ordering anything from the breakfast menu because it comes with coffee or tea :'). Furthermore, I'd say that the service there is good but I think that they should put more fruits because all of my friends gave me their grapefruits... I usually eat this fruit but it was super bitter and dry...meh.

We went to Andres' place but I could only stay for 30 mins because I had a practice. However, it was 30 mins of fun times!

I had my second filming today! Guess what song we're doing! 

Just us casually fooling around.

To be honest, I don't think that I did well during the filming. I WILL DO BETTER NEXT TIME! YAAAAS JASMINE!
