... I need to watch so many of those. It's sad. .__________.; Hopefully you'll make great progress on this list. XD

And whoa, I love your header.

I haven't been watching any ever since I finished Proposal Daisakusen (which is a must-watch if you like DBSK's song "Doushite Kimi wo Suki ni Natte Shimattandarou?", because it'll freak you out how well the lyrics match the plot ♥). Again, I blame this on DBSK. They've owned my life for a while now, but this is just ridiculous.

tinseltown16's layouts are wonderful.

Urgh, I wish I could watch it. I still have to finish so many dramas, it's sad. I have three episodes of 1L of Tears left from high school, and like, five episodes of Orange Days, and I never finished Kimi wa Petto, and blaarrghghk... And now I'm totally behind in Zettai Kareshi.

I will put that on my unwritten list of dramas I need to watch. I'm afraid if I wrote it down, I'd cry from the sheer immensity of it all. =_=;

tinseltown16 has mad skills. I'm jealous.

High school? o_o You must finish 1LoT first; it's so sad, but without being cheesy (and that's rare with Asian dramas).

Someday I'll become unlazy enough to make my own layouts and not just tweak the codes.

Yes, high school. The easy years. I wish I had wasted my time more productively. D: And yeah, I've heard only good things about it. My friends are quite appalled with the fact that I haven't finished it. Especially since one of them lent it to me in high school and I have yet to return it. ._.; It's sitting on my dresser right now.

One day I'll figure out how to tweak codes.

Dramas aren't included in DBSK bans, right? Watch an episode the next time you're procrastinating. Why I'm influencing you to procrastinate more, I don't know.

I try to stay away from dramas, too... but I always give in. In my last ban, I went through three episodes of Zettai Kareshi. XD I'm still on episode six, though. ._.;

It's because you want me to be happy and waste time productively. Woo, productivity!

It's up to episode six now? I last saw the subbed third episode. D: Have you read the manga?

Of course! Watching Asian dramas helps you pick up the language it's in, and I'm only half kidding.

LoL, it's up to episode 8 with subs now. I think episode nine raw might be out. I'm not sure. D: I need to catch up.

It totally does help you pick it up. D: I know a lot more random Japanese now. DBSK also helped. Kimi wa boku no hikari is You are my light. XD Oh, I am smooth.

I have too many episodes to watch now, then. Agh.

XD! It's amazing how many random Japanese phrases you can learn from watching J-dramas. Fangirl!Japanese is still not adequatem though.

I know right? It's totally unfair, these great and bountiful jdramas. Why must you come out every week? D:

It totally is. ;_; Why can't fangirl!Japanese be adequate? Why can't we just go around screaming, "Onegai???", and "Okaeri!", and "Tadaima~!" And, from Hana Kimi (I think this is something guys say), "Ore wa homo ja nai~!". Actually, I think I spelled the last one wrong. ._.; It means "I'm not gay". I think. >_>; Why is it suddenly so hard to remember?

I've been wishing that everyone could automatically be fluent in three languages (besides English) from birth for a few months now. For me, I'd want to know French, Japanese, and Korean. ARGH.

XDDD And "OHAYOU!", "Genki desu?", "Nande?", "Nani?!", and "Sugoiii~!"

I love that line, and I think you spelled it right. Ah, Hana-Kimi. ♥

We totally, could actually. *is super interested in Linguistics* I think you can teach your kid three languages from birth and they'll be pretty decent at all three. Just get the father to only speak one language (e.g. Korean), the mother to speak another language (e.g. Punjabi), and when they're together, they speak to the kid in English. It actually works out pretty well. At first, the kid makes really silly mistakes and messes the languages together and all that, but by school age, if you stick to having one language per parent, and a third for when they're together, the kid's pretty fluent in all three. And the kid would learn French in school~! (And possibly head to Chinese/Japanese school on the weekends~!) XD I'd love to do that with my kid. I'd be the cruelest coolest mother ever! My child will appreciate it in the long run~! D:< Or I'll make him.

For the longest time, my sister kept screaming it out loud. XD And I'd be like, wait, you're not a guy AND you're not gay? D: I'm so schocked~! Oh, I'm cruel. XD

Oh, I knew part of that -- well, a different aspect of it.. Like, if you teach your kid another language before they're a certain age, they have a way better chance of becoming fluent in it (above 50%), versus them learning a new language in high school, when they'll have a really low chance of becoming fluent in it (below 10%, I think). I read about this a long time ago, so I can't recall the exact percentages.

What I meant is that I wish we could all know three different languages literally the second we're born, without having to learn them. XD Sorry I wasn't clear on that.

I know I'd appreciate something like that! Although it wouldn't have worked out in the end, because my parents separated when I was six. But that's a different story, haha.

Hana-Kimi is just win. So is the manga. ♥

I wish we were all born with three languages, too. ;_; Then there wouldn't be any sad stories about kids being locked away for years at a time and then being unable to communicate with us when they're found. Some people are just twisted. D:<

I'm sorry to hear that about your parents. My parents have been together... for a long time. And will probably be together forever, seeing as how divorce is unknown in their culture. Though I think they might benefit from it. ._.; But what do I know, perhaps they secretly get along well all the time. Also, my keyboard just switched into Farsi. .____.; That was odd.

I adore the manga. HURRAY FOR SEXY DOCTOR.

o_o I've never read/heard anything like that. That's unfortunate.
I also want to learn American Sign Language. D:

Oh, don't be. It's a long story, but I think my family's better off without him. ^^;

I want to configure my keyboard to type in Hangul, but that involves learning Hangul first. Which I still haven't started doing. Ugh. DBSK, why don't you come out with a DVD series on teaching your international fans Korean?? I would buy that in a heartbeat.

IT IS SO ADORABLE! I read a ton of them at once at Barnes & Noble. XD That doctor is so... *__* Doctors shouldn't be allowed to be that attractive. Or be gay, because his ex-lover(s) coming in through the window all the time is weird. XD

AshiyaxSano = mega fangirl squeal. :3
