Just finished watching until ep9 of 1 litre of tears. Whao, i really cried alot. It's super touching. There's 4 children in the family and Aya( main character) is the eldest, followed by Ako, Hiroki and Rika. There's this part which Aya taught his brother Hiroki to kick soccer and then his skills improved. He managed to get selected in a game and then his frens were like "wha.." that kind over him. Then Hiro kind of boasted to them that his sister Aya is smart and pretty and she taught him to play football. But who knows, when his frens saw Aya in a sports shop and recognised her, they began to laugh at her(because by then Aya wasn't walking normally) saying that a sister like her who's walking like a penguine couldn't possibly be the one who taught hiro to play soccer. Then hiro was also being laughed at by his frens during soccer practice. That actually made hiro felt ashamed of aya. It's really sad because all along aya's really a very kind girl who's gentle to everybody around her. Finally ako witnesses a scene of mocking by hiro's frens at hiro and then she scolded him for not retaliating when his frens say that of his sister. It was then ako realises that hiro actually felt ashamed of his own sister. Ako gave him a scolding session which was overheard by aya herself who was all along hiding at the doorstep and did not enter the house. How sad could it be when u know that ur family is ashamed of you! Of cos she went to cry aft that. It's really very very touching to hear how ako describes her sister, that she was very optimistic and cheerful all the while she was facing this illness. Everybody that walked past gave her discriminating glances but you know how she thought of it? "I know among all this discriminating glances, there are still kind glances as well." that's what she thought. And somemore, when aya goes to sch, there's always these 2 frens who were always waiting for her in the morning to help her up the stairs. Aya always apologises ro them for bringing them trouble, but they always say "nvm nvm!" and smile away. Until once when aya left sch early for a checkup, the cg rep stood up and wanted to discuss abt aya's issues with the class then aya overheard these 2 best frens of hers confessing that it was indeed tiring and troublesome while helping her. Imagine how heartbroken she must've felt! She was by the door listening. Everyone was like so kind in front of her but so mean towards her behind her back. So fake. If they really felt troublesome they can say straight in her face! So sad. Becos even the teacher was so fake towards her in the show. I've cried for like dunno how many episodes oredy, ever since ep3. Really cry la! This explains the tile of the show. Anyway, this is what i've found on the net about Aya's disease.
What is Cerebellar Degeneration?
Cerebellar degeneration is a disease process in which neurons in the cerebellum - the area of the brain that controls muscle coordination and balance - deteriorate and die. Diseases that cause cerebellar degeneration can also involve areas of the brain that connect the cerebellum to the spinal cord, such as the medulla oblongata, the cerebral cortex, and the brain stem. Cerebellar degeneration is most often the result of inherited genetic mutations that alter the normal production of specific proteins that are necessary for the survival of neurons.
Symptoms: The most characteristic symptom of cerebellar degeneration is a wide-legged, unsteady, lurching walk, usually accompanied by a back and forth tremor in the trunk of the body. Other symptoms include slow, unsteady and jerky movement of the arms or legs, slowed and slurred speech, and nystagmus -- rapid, small movements of the eyes.

Oh, and i've looked up the net and was dismayed to find out that she lived only until the age of 25 when she got the disease at only 15. Only a lifespan of 10 years. An ex-basketball athlete that ended up like that. It's really depressing.

Just started watching this show called Ichi Rittoru no Namida - 1 litre of tears. I started hearing bout it a long time ago when limian n zhirong watched it. But i nv go watch until today, when i kind of got reminded about it while searching to new shows to watch. It's really damn sad. U could really cry (abt 1 litre?). This story is based on a TRUE ACCOUNT of one such japanese girl. She got this disease called Spinalcerebellum Atrophy which is i think kind of rare cos i nv heard of it before. This disease causes e patient to gradually lose control of his/her body. At the start, she stumbles while walking and does not have a measure of distance, for instance she tries to grab smth frm the floor but fail cos her hand jus missed it like that. Isn't that scary? Like u cant catch hold of anyth at all. Even when it's right in front of you, you could missed it like that. The saddest thing is that the poor girl is only 15 years old! Oh my god. What do we do when we're 15? She's a very good and smart girl. But why did it(disease) choose her? That was what she's been asking the doctor. I'm currently at ep4 and i cried at ep3 last part when she got to know bout her disease. It's like sad thruout when she doesn't know bout her condition and her parents tried to hide it from her. Her sister also gave snide remarks about her parents' biasness cos she doesnt know that her sister's sick. So sad. K gtg...

Ha! Overall happy day again today. We watched protege today. It's a really nice movie. It's really nice cos it's quite meaningful in a sense that it's both enriching and like widening ur scope of the world. i mean who have ever thought how ppl make drugs and all that? Like how they make it into how many percent pure and concocting their own mixture. In the show there are scenes that are quite scary. Like some disgusting scenes where there are.. ok shan't say in case got ppl wanna watch. But it really provides interesting insights in the world of drug traffickers, dealers and producers! Jung even kind of linked it to Blood Diamond..Thanks la. Hahaa. U watch the show then u will know. Anyway, it's really a great movie la. All Andy Lau's movies happen to be nice. From my view. But Andy's really cool! And Daniel Wu is like super shuai. Hmmm..so just watch la. It's a super worth it movie.

It's the 2nd day of LNY. Guess what i've been doing all day? Of cos not mugging! I'm kind of addicted to the hana kimi show. Even though the story line is a bit lame, but it still never fails to touch my heart. I mean who can ever feel that secretly protecting and admiring the person you love is a kind of happiness? All along i thought that was torture. Like u wanted to let the person know how you feel but you cant. But the show made me feel that actually it was't torture at all. It was a kind of true love even. And the scenes that so many boys wanted to take off ella's clothes in the show made me weep for her. So poor thing la. Anyway this was the song from the show. It's called zhuan shu tian shi by tank. It totally fits the show. Here are the lyrics.
我不会怪你对我的伪装 天使在人间是该藏好翅膀
人们愚蠢鲁莽而你纤细善良
怎能让你为了我被碰伤
小小的手掌厚厚的温暖
你总能平复我不安的夜晚
不敢想的梦想透过你的眼光
我才看见它原来在前方
没有谁能把你抢离我身旁
你是我的专属天使
唯我能独占
没有谁能取代你在我心上
拥有一个专属天使
我哪里还需要别的愿望
小小的手掌大大的力量
我一定也会像你一样飞翔
你想去的地方就是我的方向
有我保护笑容尽管灿烂
没有谁能把你抢离我身旁
你是我的专属天使
唯我能独占
没有谁能取代你在我心上
拥有一个专属天使
我哪里还需要别的愿望
要不是你出现
我一定还在沉睡
绝望的以为生命只有黑夜
没有谁能把你抢离我身旁
你是我的专属天使
唯我能独占
没有谁能取代你在我心上
拥有一个专属天使
我哪里还需要别的愿望
...Enjoy :D

It's been so long since i've last posted! (my new year resolution included not letting my blog rot) okAys..i'll tell you about what happened ytd. and today. haha.
Ytd was so much fun! Me and jc went to eat our katong indulgence eg. banana pie, peach pie and katong chicken rice. These are all our kt favourites! Must-try! LOL.Some commercial. Then we went AMK hub(east side ppl know bout this new place or not?) which is newly opened. Sharon and i and jc all agreed it's Bigger than J8. Then we went on to consume alot of stuff. haha. HEy there's this ramen restaurant at lvl 1 or b1 i cant rmb, the ramen super chewy and Qqqqqqqqq~~ the soup is super nice too! Me and jc watched the shifu pull and pull the dough until it became the ramen in his bowl! -Amazed. It's like a round pile of thing turned into many thin strands of thing la.
Then we ate the famous curry puff in amk which had just risen its price again by 10 cents. I still rmb it started off at 60 cents each when i was a kid. Oohh, but anyway my point is that ytd we were really foodie la. We drank 3 cups of bubble tea. Actually not really la, cos we ordered cold dessert and not bubble tea : lemon-lime(bubble tea meh?), honeydew sago(dessert) and peppermint chinchow. the last one was weird. We chose it cos we're ADVENTUROUS huh. Dare to try new things. But the dare didnt turn out quite worth it cos it was really weird.
Then we went on and thought abt wad food we normally eat in each place we're at. LIke for example, if we're in katong, we surely eat the chicken rice. Marine parade, we surely eat Auntie Anne's *double flavour: sour cream and parmesan cheese=best combi. Bishan, we eat YTF, Subway. Toa Payoh, we eat sakae or Ichiban. Den if we're at any lib with cafe galilee, we confirm will eat brownie with ice cream or spaghetti. Haha so many things right? LOL. we're considering writing a book for all these. So guys, pls support.
Haha today not much stuff to tell. But jus to let u noe, today was vday preparation day. Oops! Anyone who comes across this pls do not let jc noe k. PLus new year clothes shopping day! Tune in for my next rare posting! :D
