Can You Hear Me Knocking?

Yikes! June is just around the corner! And before you think i'll start rambling about how there is less than a month to my ORD, what i'm actually concerned about is moving houses during the latter part of June. Not to mention aside from reading through my Lonely Planet Japan book, i have not made any other preparations for my trip (and that's just 2 months after June). In regards to the moving, besides chucking away my comic books, i have not packed anything else. And in truth i do have alot of junk to pack. I have to probably make a hard decision and throw away some of the stuff i used to collect, mainly my trading card games (WWE and LOTR) and basketball cards. Maybe i should invite people over before i move to look through the stuff i want to throw away to see if i can find any takers.

It's starting to be a tradition that every weekend i have or leave/off i take, i tend to fall slightly ill. This weekend is no exception, i caught a sore throat and as i'm writing this my stomach is writhing in pain. Gastric i think. Which i believe is stress induced. I can't seem to have a peaceful day at home just playing games. Someone always comes and irritates me. And i really hate when people just stick their head room and then walk off. Do they have any idea how annoying/distracting that is? If i lock my door, they will start knocking and then repeat the same thing once i unlock it. That's just so Jeremy.

Things i should probably invest in for my new room: Padded door (so i can't hear when people knock) and a professional 'Do Not Disturb' sign to nail to my door in 3 different langauges.

Drama: Liar Game Episode 4



I think Ee Wei was right when he said that Erika Toda was not the main star of the show. After 4 episodes it seems that swindler Akiyama Shin'chi is more of the hero of the show while Erika's character Kanzaki Nao is reduced to the hapless damsel in distress who just keeps getting tricked and getting into trouble. (Thank goodness this doesn't mean Erika gets less screentime on this already short drama series) I don't know how many episodes are planned for this series but at 36 mins an episode, and yet to conclude the 2nd Round of the Liar Game by the end of Episode 4, i sincerely that this gets more than 12 episodes because the show is really good so far.



There's not much to summarise for this episode without giving the villain away so i won't elaborate too much. Nao realises she's been tricked (again) and the villain takes up half the episode explaining how he fooled everyone and gloats over his supposed victory over the other 3 remaining contestants. As the final vote is counted, he realised that Shin'chi had switched votes and therefore the round was a draw (2-2) and has to be replayed. Episode ends with Shin'chi revealing that he knew all along who was the traitor and declaring to the remaining contestants after popping in his vote for the replay round that he will win the 2.1 billion yen prize.

On a side note, Erika Toda is starring in a new drama : Ushi ni Negai wo: Love & Farm to be aired in July. From the sypnosis it sounds like it's not really a drama per se but more like an educational series? I don't know what to expect from this one.
