Last Friends



I am currently watching at least three j-doramas.

First Kiss- a story about 20 years old girl who suffers from chronic illness and is spending her possibly last summer with her beloved onii-chan. touching at times.

Absolute Boyfriend- this one is funny. A girl find herself presented with a robot which is programmed to be her ideal lover. the story will develop into love triangle between the girl, her boss (i like this actor), and the er.. robot.

Last Friends- somewhat like the legendary dorama 'Ordinary People'. with issue of gays, abusive boyfriend, and other mature theme that are not common in dorama. Not really a comedy, more of friendship and love.

If you have time for only one dorama, maybe you should pick 'Last Friends'.
If you like Nodame, you should watch her in this one.



The dorama is definitely not for under 18 heh.
But I am suspecting it to be one of the more memorable ones.

Too Wild at Heart?

Here.. is an essay written against John Eldgredge's controversial book, Wild At Heart. The essay is quite heavy on theology, but it certainly worths reading to balance ourselves if we were to read Eldredge's book. I believe Wild at Heart is one of the best books I have ever read but all the same, I always felt that it is also one of the most dangerous ones. John Eldredge is one of those blessed with talent to come up with words so powerful you will nod your head in agreement without digesting them, most of the times. And that's why I love the book so much. But I suppose Eldredge is only human. He, like many other servants of God, has the tendency to swing towards the extreme of his own belief that sometimes, they (or we) fall into this trap of 'creating God in our own image'. I believe that the essay in itself has flaws and my own opinion, definitely, also has flaws. Geez I am not even a Theologist. But ultimately, none of us has that complete wisdom to understand G

Ichi Rittoru no Namida

As Aya's condition gradually worsen, she could no longer walk or stand anymore. She would sometimes choke when she eat and she struggled to speak. There was only one thing that she could do, albeit which much difficulty. She could still write. One day her mum visited her at the hospital and seeing her struggling hard to write her diary, her mum asked her to rest. But she said.. "Okaasan.. you said that I can still write right? That's the only thing that I could still do. I have to write what I have in mind now because that is the only prove that I am living today." Even when she could hardly hold her crayon, she would still write her diary. I do not know whether the movie followed the true diary content but in the movie.. Despite the diary began with her questioning why she had to be the one to suffer from this cruel disease, it sweetly ended with a word: "Arigatou". Thanking her parents and siblings for being there right to the end, thanking her friends for
