This show makes me extremely happy! I was soooooooooooooo estatic when I found this one Netflix. I was having second thoughts at first because I never usually watch shows on Netflix but thanks to this show, I have been crazy about other shows ever since. I hate how it ended. HOLY COW. I was mad that they didn't make a second season and everything but but but but............they ended with a freaking cliffhanger!!! ARGH! I hate that when that happens! Apparently this show was "underated" and wasn't getting any good views. PEOPLE. This show has rare genres that you never see in regular shows anymore. It has family and fantasy qualities like no other!!! >:( What is wrong with the world?!?! This show was amazing and they shut it down when it was getting better! GRRR.

I freaking love this show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love it to peices~!!!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GOODNESS!! I cried so bad...............I really hated how it ended but whatever! Anyways, Robin Hood is like the main things I loved when I was a kid. This is just downright amazing. The acting and action was cool and the romance and adventure mixed in it created a legendary story that got me thinking all night. I rewatched this one and it still makes me feel like a kid and how much a I looked up to Robin Hood. I love it~

They make an awesome team.

I really liked this show! It's pretty neat! It kinda reminds me of X-Men since everyone doesn't quite understand the 4400 like in X-Men. Also, they discriminate them too. I just got into the t.v show and so far so good!
OH MY GOSH. I can't believe it!!!!!!!!!!! I have been nominated for something!!!!!!! I'M SO HAPPY!!!!! :D :D :D I was nominated by this beautiful lady, River from ~*Written using alphabets*~. This seriously made me the happiest idiot EVER! I guess this might be even better than getting a boyfriend! (I'm kidding.)
Ok! This is how it works:
1. 11 facts about yourself
2. Answer the 11 questions the blogger who nominated you left.
3. Ask 11 new questions for those who you nominate.
4. Choose 11 bloggers with less than 200 followers to nominate.
5. Go to each blogger's page and let them know about the award.
6. Thank the person who nominated you and link back to their blog.
I guess I should start with 11 facts about myself! Hahaha! I honestly don't know............lets start with this one!
1. I LOVE MANGA. No duh! My blog is absoloutely dedicated to manga/anime! It's like my life~ I started reading manga when I was in grade 5. I started drawing that same day when an artist came to my class and started showing us some things. I spotted drawings like Pokemon and Cardcaptor Sakura. That's when I became curious with manga and looked things up. Manga is just amazing!!
(Fly High manga)
2. I don't gain weight. I've tried and it doesn't work. I eat alot but you don't see any fat on my stomach. It's weird and disgusting at the same time! But I guess I get to eat all the meat and chocolate in the world and not gain a single pound! Damn my high metabolism............I have no boobs. I'm a failure as a woman!
3. I'm Filipino (that's me in the picture on your left!). I came to Canada at such a young age that I sorta forgot how to speak it. The downside of being asian is that most people mistake my age and take me to be really smart when I'm not. I'm sixteen but man, people ask me if I'm 13! I'm not that young.....really! Anyways, I can understand a bit due to the fact that my parents speak it at home. I can understand Korean and Japanese too. I can speak English and a bit of French fluently. Languages were always my forte! Not so much about math......ha.....ha.......ha.
4. I can play the flute and piano pretty well if I do say so myself. My siblings are just downright amazing that they are too good to stay playing the same pieces for 2 weeks. But anyways, I take singing lessons and I think I'm good at singing. I have a youtube channel and I have a couple of songs when me and my siblings were jamming too. I have more coming.............I hope I don't sound too bad. I just started singing again! I sang alot in church when I was a kid.
From Halloween. I'm the one on the left and my friend Em on the right. I cut my hair as you can tell from the previous picture.
5. I'm the youngest and shortest kid in my friend group. I have quite alot of best friends because..........I like to connect with people alot. All friends are either extremely freaking smart or talented or both. Most of my friends are the most talented singers out there and I swear, they will sing in Canadian Idol or in an opera house somewhere. Having smart friends help when it comes to math! I will never understand math!
6. I used to Figure skate. I won one or two bronze medals in competitions. I was extremely disappointed when I had to give it up because my family was moving to another province. I try to skate with my friends whenever I have the time. I can't do any awesome tricks like I used to but its always fun skating with friends!
Jiro Wang from the boy band Farenheit! :)
7. I listen to mainly Korean or Japanese music. I hate listening to Justin Beiber or Miley whats-her-face because I hate the way they sing and I find there is no meaning. It's either about girls, how life sucks or something stupid like that. I don't mean to diss peoples taste but thats just my personal opinion. I love listening to rap and hip hop korean/japanese music cause its fun. If you guys have time, try listening to Block B! I love them! Here, I'll put it on this post! :D
11:30 by Block B
8. I love cute things. My weakness is Hello Kitty. I'm such a kid and my mother thinks I'm too old for Hello Kitty but WHO CARES. I mainly like Hello Kitty pens, notebooks............and stuffed animals of course! I can't wait to go to Philippines this summer to get a whole bunch of them for at a cheap price!
9. I'm loud and according to everyone, I'm a smiley idiot and is always happy which is partly true. I always comment on peoples look and compliment them. I would say, "I love your hair" or "Can I have your shirt" and it makes people smile. I love to make people smile because we weren't made to frown all the time. Make people happy!
10. I have worked at Mcdonalds for the past year a half. I love working there regardless the food is bad for you or not. The people are mainly filipino's and they love me! I love how much we have working and its great!
11. Last thing............I love to look at hot men. I'm not even kidding. I mentally cry when I find out that they are taken, fictional or gay. I love my social teachers saying, "Guys are like parking spots. All the good ones are taken." Gotta love my social teacher. :)
Enough about me, time to answer questions from ~River~! :D Hope these are the answers you were looking for! I want to thank you once again for nominating me!!!
One more hot guy...............ok? * ^ * Ok, I'm done. :D
1. If you could have named yourself(not given name by parents), what name would you have chosen?
I honestly have to idea. I like Chibiko! :) I like it better than my other name. Chibiko has a nice ring to it, doesn't it? >:)
2. Your dream job/career?
When I was a kid, I always wanted to be an artist. Manga has inspired me to draw and its enjoyable. I always feel like I'm free and in my own world. However, I've come to realize that drawing is only a hobby and won't get me anywhere so I concluded to be a doctor because I want to save people when they are at deaths door. Though I'm a bit squimish at the sight of blood, it will be all worth it!
3. What type of books do you like reading? (Like, romance or adventure? List a few!)
I love reading a mix of romance, comedy, adventure, drama and..............a cross dressing female. I love gender benders with un utter passion! I'm always fascinated by the strong sense of character a girl can have with a combination of hiding her identity in a rough world of the opposite sex. It's sooooo cool and I admire it! If you guys want a good book/novel to read, read Eon by Alison Goodman. It's AWESOME.
4. What do you think you were in your previous life?
I DON'T KNOW. I think I'm the same person but maybe.............with powers or something! That would be the most awesomest thing EVER! :))
5. Did you start your blog to write stores or keep track of the events in your life? In other words, why did you start blogging?
I started blogging because writing things down was becoming a pain. Plus, it seemed like a lot of fun. I can't remember why exactly but my friend got a blog and I guess.............I wanted to top hers so I got my own and bam! Here we are. Over the months I forgot competition and was consumed with the fun and love with my readers. The other reason is, I want to make ordinary people into manga freaks like me so I can talk to them and connect with them. I'm such an otaku! Writing what kind of manga I read was hard but getting blogger and organizing my list has become much easier! >:o
6. What is the question you find the silliest that you have asked someone? Describe the reaction of the other party!
Uh...............I don't know! Let me see. Oh! I accidently blurted out and asked a man if he was gay. I was book shopping in the city and I got in a depth conversation him and I kept looking at him and guess I just asked it out of the blue. He looked a bit stunned and was like, "No. What makes you think that?" I only asked that question because well..........I don't know. I don't really normally talk to a guy about SHOJO manga very often and I guess..............yeah. He said it was fine cause he was about my age and I was like, "YES! Not gay!" I never saw this guy again but man, he was cute!
7. What would you do if you have only 24 hours left to live?
I'd eat alot. Tell everyone I love them, espically all the guys I've liked and see if they would go out with me for a while and hang. Of course, I'd spend time with my best friends and watch a lot of anime and read manga before I die.
8. You are to be sent off to another livable world with other creatures in it. If you could take only one
thing along, just one, what would it be?
I could bring Lee Min Ho with me and I would be happy...........he is such a hot man.......... * ^ *
Easy. Manga. :) Wait......music.........no! Anime no!......maybe a hot man to look at. I don't know! Why are these such hard questions?!
9. Describe your imaginary friend/character. (I'm pretty sure everyone has one, right? If not, describe the personality of a person you would like to meet some day)
My imaginary friend is tall, beautiful and loves manga like I do. He left me for another girl but I was there to give him a push. :) My imaginary friend has always been there for me even if he doesn't exist. I love him! I will always talk to him whenever he and I get the chance!
10. Do you LOVE the moon? *Holds shotgun at your head* Choose your answer wisely..
I just had to. I'm on tumblr too ok? :D I just LOVE using the gifs from tumblr! ^_^
OF COURSE I LOVE THE MOON. It's so big and beautiful!!!! Also romantic...........haha! The moon has inspired so many different, interesting and awesome storylines for budding authors and manga's/anime's, like Sailor Moon! Hahaha! Anyways, the moon is soothing to look at and staring at it seems to suck my troubles away. I wonder if I'm a werewolf? :D
11. (I'm gonna copy this question from Sabrina because I love it lots! Will you be my friend? *Puppy eyes looks up pleadingly at you*
DUH! Making friends is fun!! You seem like an interesting person, you've got me! Hahaha! Lets be awesome buds ok? ^_^
Alright! Hopefully everyone is all satisfied with my answers and have gotten to know me better. Ok! Time to nominate 11 new bloggers! *Drum roll please!* ALRIGHT! Here are the people I have nominated!!!!!!! I look forward to everyones answers!!! Answer my questions wisely............ :) Hahaha!
That's all I have.........I'll nominate more next time! :)

11. What's your most embarrassing moments?
I seriously haven't spotted one yet. I know this is going to be a waste of a post of just saying that in one separate post so I decided to put day 21 and 22 together. It works!
I don't have one! There would be the one odd actor in a drama but it would go as far as worst in my opinion. I'm too nice apparently. I know I'm not much help but I haven't watched that many dramas so.......feel free to recommend some to me! I love Japanese, Korean, Taiwanese and Filipino Drama's! I hate American Soap operas so never recommend them to me! > x <
I actually know who I'm going to pick! I have so many great actresses in mind but I have this one always stuck in my mind. Ever since watching the Taiwanese verison of Hana Kimi, Ella Chen has acted out Ashiya Mizuki or Rui Xi extremely well. When it got to certain scenes, man, she actually emphasized it and that scared me.
I know I would be spoiling the drama but one example is when Rui Xi was alone with this creeper and he was just about to rape her. That scene gave me chills. It was downright amazing and was done well.
I AM SORRY! *Bows* Please forgive me! I have failed to fill my challenge once again!! > x < However, I have been thinking about yesterday's challenge..........too be honest, I have no idea.
Don't hit me! >X Lots of things have been going on lately. My brother started his first job on Friday and I was extremely happy that he got one! But he works in the same place I do. You many think its a good thing but its not. I actually have to train him with taking orders and how to do everything! Its actually extremely stressing. When there's rush and I'm taking orders like crazy while my brother is just standing there doing nothing, it drives me nuts! Luckly, he sorta figured somethings on his own and he didn't do to bad on his first day. Everybody was helping him do stuff and I'm grateful for that!
Also, I'm on the Fine Arts Board as the Band Representative. Yesterday, I had to help out with the last play by the 12th grade class called Rumours. The play was just hilarious! During intermission, me and Jen sold stuff for the bake sale. Man, we ate the leftovers! The cookies there was just amazing!
Anyways, back to the Challenge. I seriously have no idea. I actually have to look through my brain for the right one. Most female third wheel characters are either the main characters best friend or just a snob and a female dog (*****). I don't know! I can't find a good one..........
I guess Yoon Seul from the Korean drama Secret Garden is a good female third wheel character. Wait! I think I also love Jiang Nan Qin or Kotonami Kanae from the Taiwanese Drama, Extravagent Challenge also known as Skip Beat.
Bianca Bai! She is extremely pretty!! >///<
Jiang Nan Qin is played by Bianca Bai. Her character seems a bit stuck up in the beginning but once you get to know her better, she isn't so bad. As a matter of fact, she very nice and encouraging at times. After going through obsticales, she became a best friend to Gong Xi (Kyoko Mogami in manga). I love her!
Bianca Bai :D
As for Yoon Seul, you will totally think she is a total b**** in the beginning of the drama. But she turns out to be very cool. Its a good thing she wasn't going after the main male lead character or else she would have been more horrible to the main character!
Yoon Seul is played by Kim Sa Rang. She so pretty! >///<
I'm sorry!! I had so much stuff happening last night that I forgot about my drama challenge! Other than awards night last night (I won the band award!), I'm pretty guilty of other things.....I was caught up reading a novel that made my heart jump so much. I pretty much read that instead of my
blogging challenge. Luckly, I just schedule my yaoi posts so I didn't have to write them today when I actually wrote them two days ago. I'm glad my friend told me about it. I just love scheduling them! Saves me so much time. I can just do it all at once!
But I never have the time......sigh. By the way, the picture you see above, the manga isn't so bad. We fan girls love to interpet scenes differently. :D
Anyways, don't blame me, if you had sometimg that you loved so much come out to a form that you can save on your computer, you can totally understand my feeling right now. I was reading Sekai-chi Hatsukoi~ Yokozawa Takafumi. This novel is making me so happy right now! :D :D And, its nothing bad. I swear! > x <
Now, I must finish my post about my favorite female lead character!
Too be honest, I have quite a few favorite female characters. I'll just list them if you don't mind! They aren't in order. I'll put links on drama's I've already did recommendations on them. If not, I'll do them right on this post! If a drama catches your eye, please, go and watch the drama!
Let me start out with the character Myung Wol from the Korean Drama, Spy Myung Wol. I believe I haven't done a recommendation (I swear I did! I can't find it...wait, nevermind!!) on this drama so just scroll down.
Anyways, Myung Wol has such a great character. She's a military person. Being trained all her life to be this heartless (not really) and tough. Of course, she hasn't experienced dating or having a boyfriend. I think its really cute and awesome! Sigh. Her fighting moves are soo extremely cool! > x < She is so pretty.......
Gil Rim Im from Secret Garden is also one of my favorite female lead characters. She is so cool! She acts as a stunt double for movies and she can fight and defend herself. She is very nice and quite humble. Plus, she is extremely pretty~! Gil Rim Im is played by Ha Ji-won. Oh! You know what I've noticed? Most of my favorite female lead characters are very atheltic or can fight and defend themselves. I love girls like that! They are so cool!!
Ha Ji-won also plays Kang Ha-yeong in my most favorite Korean movie of all time, 100 Days with Mr. Arrogant. I know its a movie but I just wanted to throw it out there because well, if any of you are bored and want a great romantic comedy korean movie to watch, 100 Days with Mr. Arrogant is a great movie.
Title: 100 Days with Mr. Arrogant
Type: Korean Movie
Genres: Comedy, Drama, Romance, Slice of Life
Age Rating: 13+ Teen
Status: Completed 95 minutes
Summary: (Wiki) After being dumped by her boyfriend just before their 100 day anniversary, Ha-Young (Ha Ji-Won) meets a college guy named Hyung-Joon when she kicks a can that accidentally hits him in the face and causes him to scratch his Lexus. He demands she pay him $3000 on the spot. She escapes from him, leaving her wallet behind.
Hyung-Joon stalks her, demanding money to pay for his car. Since she is a poor high school student Hyung-Joon writes up a "Enslavement Agreement" for Ha-Young in order to pay for the damage to his car. Ha-Young is thrown into a nightmarish slave life for 100 days, running his errands, i.e.: cleaning his house, carrying his shopping, and cleaning his car.
By accident she finds out that the damage to Hyung-Joon's car that's only $10! She then takes her revenge. However, before she knows it Hyung-Joon shows up at her house as her new tutor! He once again takes advantage of her, but soon Ha-Young finds herself falling head over heels for Hyung-Joon. But what happens when he drops out of her life just when she needs him most?
The original Korean title can be literally translated as "my love, the asshole," or, more roughly, as "my love, the no-manners".
I really love this movie! Too bad it was short........even though the plot was cliche, I enjoyed it. The actors were so cute and downright funny. It was great!! > x <
One exception (or two) to the action and tough female leads are Go Mi Nam or Go Mi Nyu from You're Beautiful and Lee Kyu Won from Heartstrings. Funny, Go Mi Nam and Lee Kyu Won are played by Park Shin Hye. She does a wonderful job! Go Mi Nam and Lee Kyu Won are both normal characters. However, Go Mi Nam has to cross dress in order to cover her brother. I really love that! Lee Kyu Won has to learns to sing and leave the classical stuff for the rock.........its so cool! I respect them both!!
Since I love Go Mi Nam more than Lee Kyo Won, I'll put a whole bunch of pictures of her! She is just so cute! I love Park Shin Hye's hairstyle for this drama. She pulled it off very well and I'm diggin it! I want that hair cut now.......
Go Mi Nam
I remember this episode! She looked so gorgeous with that wig!
A.N.G.E.L.L band members! Go Mi Nam is the second on the left
I have that plushie!! Well, in a smaller form.......but I love it anyways!
One more thing, Park Shin Hye has such a beautiful voice....
