Since the summer started I don't have anything to do aside from eating, sleeping, eating and sleeping so to ease my boredom I watched asianovelas NONSTOP! You might notice that I have a lot of "I Recommend" post. Well, that's the result of my boredom. hahaha

Romantic Island has a very realistic plot. It talks about 3 different stories and Eugene Kim's role, one of my favorite korean actress, is a famous singer who got exhausted from her busy career and wanted to escape for a while so she went to Bora. I can somehow relate to the movie because they shoot the movie in the Philippines. I can't believe they choose Philippines. lolz. After watching the movie I can conclude that koreans are really good because they manage to give justice to the beauty of my country which movies produced by filipinos can't accomplish. Here's the plot for you to understand what I' am talking here.
PLOT
A poor but vivacious lady, Soo-Jin (Su-kyeong Lee) takes a vacation to an exotic island for the first time, totally free from work and her family. A rich but cold-hearted gentleman, Jae-Hyuk (Seon-gyun Lee), secretly visits the island for his estranged fathers funeral. Jae-Hyuk bumps into Soo-Jin at a hotel and attracted by her lively spirit, Jae-Hyuk asks her to be his tour guide during his stay on the island.
A famous idol star, Ga-Young (Eugene), is stressed out from her hard schedules and takes an impulsive vacation. A hopeless clerk, Jung-Hwan (Min-gi Lee), gets a free ticket to the island from his friend. Spoiled, Ga-Young sees Jung-Hwan standing alone at the airport and asks him to carry her bag and to take her to the hotel. Mr. nice guy, Jung-Hwan cant turn her down and he becomes her companion to the island.
A father and husband, Joong-Sik and his wife, Yoon-Suk, take their very first trip abroad to the island. In the romantic island, Joong-Sik tries to make his wife the perfect vacation, presenting an unforgettable memory with him for the last time.

Code Blue is one of the most touching series that I've ever seen. From start to end the story were filled with heart breaking scenes. I've never imagine that the work of a doctor is that hard. I had concluded after watching this series that taking Hotel and Restaurant Management was indeed the best choice I made. My internal organs were rambling everytime I see them slicing stomach of patients. hehehe.
SYNOPSIS
If it can be treated one second earlier, the heart might start beating again.
If there is one extra helicopter, another life in danger may be saved.
If one more life can be saved, the Japanese medical community may regain trust.
There are more lives in this country that can be saved.
The "Doctor Helicopter" system was legalized in Japan in June 2007. A medical team is dispatched to the patients on a helicopter to provide medical care in the field as soon as possible. One day, four young physicians are assigned to this latest medical system. The doctors experience traumatic medical situations, deal with personal ambitions, witness the fragility of life, and they grow personally and professionally. --Fuji TV

After 1 week since vacation has started you might be wondering what am I doing. To answer your question I've been doing an asianovela arathon. hehehe. And I've just finished watching Hot Shots. I love Romantic Comedy type of series but I also like comedy-achievement-fight-fantasy series such as Hot Shot. The ending was not that good because I expected it will end more on romance but I've already prepared myself though but it still dissapointing why "W" died and have that disease in the first place.
Synopsis:
In a school where academic reigns supreme and sports are relegated to a dusty corner of the campus, Li Ying vows to revive the basketball team by volunteering to be the head coach. Her first member is Yuan Da Ying, a country boy who is passionate for basketball but has no skill. Their recruitment goes into high gear when Dong Fang Xiang, a legendary basketball player, transfers to their school.
Around the same time, Yuan Da Ying falls for Zhan Jie Er, a scholarship student who reminds him of his childhood friend. Things are complicated by the fact her family works for Dong Fang Xiang, who she also grew up with. Their encounter may just rewrite the school's basketball history.

Ratatouille (rat-a-too-ee) is a 2007 computer-animated family film produced by Pixar and distributed by Walt Disney Pictures.The title refers to a French dish which is served in the film, and is also a play on words on the species of the main character.The plot follows Remy, a rat who dreams to become a chef and tries to achieve his goal by making an alliance with a Parisian restaurant's garbage boy. Ratatouille was released on June 29, 2007 in the United States, to both critical acclaim and box office success, and later won an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, among other honors.
I had just watched Ratatouille this month and I regret for not watching it earlier. The movie was so nice. You probably knew already that I' am an HRM student so I could definetly relate to the movie. For me, the most memorable line in the movie was: Anyone Can Cook which was the motto of Gusteau and the last part in the movie about Ego's review to Gusteau's restaurant that lead's his credibility vanished.
"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talents, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new; an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking, is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook". But I realize - only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere. It is difficult to imagine more humble origins than those of the genius now cooking at Gusteau's, who is, in this critic's opinion, nothing less than the finest chef in France. I will be returning to Gusteau's soon, hungry for more."
