So what happens when you have a sick day but can't sleep due to construction right outside your window? That's right, you marathon Hana Yori Dango and Vs Arashi all day long. I had never watched HYD before (I know, I know, I'm a slow learner) because I find the pacing in a lot of JDramas to be rather, uh, NG. However I really liked it! My husband got sucked into it as well watching it over my shoulder haha. Just in case there's one other person out there who hasn't watched it - I recommend it wholeheartedly!
One takeaway message for me, though, was that I'm still really awful at aural comprehension, especially with male voices. Admittedly, the tough guy language they often used was a little bit outside my textbook limits, which didn't help me. But hey, at least I learned another word for you (teme) and also learned immediately never to use it. So that's something.
