Drama and reflections

Just finished a drama series, Good Doctor. Its not the happy-go-lucky kind of drama (although I wish it was a little more, for my own personal preference. hehee.) But for this reason also, the plot's actually quite believable and realistic. Not the best drama but not bad ler. 3/5 stars. haha.

Its about a Savant syndrome medic resident who has to overcome bias in his pursue to become a surgeon. There are some strengths in this drama. Like how the filming is done such that it does not focus solely on bringing out the characters of the main casts alone but potrays a reasonable depth for the supporting roles too. Then, there's NO cliche love triangles but instead, a strong brother-sisterlike love that develops into a couple sort of love later on. The scriptwriter took the effort to highlight many positive themes and reminders on human nature and relationships as well. The political part of the drama is also still bearable la. Even most of the 'bad guys' in this drama turn over a new leaf so there's very few characters that you can dislike at the end of the show. Finally, of course, the show wrapped up decently ler. The downside of this drama is I never cried once! Omo. For a drama fan, surely there's at least one or a few tear-jerker moments for every drama wan lor but strangely, not this one..(or maybe I've just grown up. ahem hems.) Kaka. Plus, I think the pace of the show is almost the same throughout also so it doesn't give you that Oomph factor. Overall, not bad la but it could have been better!:P Wait, I just did a long drama review eh?!

Heading to Sarawak tommorow. Zoomm!

Anyways, you. I actually wish I don't have to meet another person like you. But really, when I think of all the silent and not-so-silent fights that we had, I cannot help but smile cheekily at our friendship. Hehee. Hahaha. Because when I think of it, those fights were so often, sometimes childish and goofy even, that it became the norm and that's the sort of impression that's been imprinted on my mind about our friendship. So when I received ur text, just like the one before, I cannot help but smile widely at the warmthness. Thanks kawanku. Despite that tingle of sadness that comes along, subsides and once in a while, triggers again, I know that I'm okay. Because little by little, it goes away. Because I know that all this while, I've been okay.=)
