Uyen's year-end post going live + MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE! ❤️

Merry Christmas, you guyssss!! I hope you are all having a lovely time in your own festive ways, this season.

I've just had a big dinner with my family; a very Asian Christmas dinner. 😁

For the curious, it was home cooked nasi kuning (yellow ginger rice) with beef rendang, which kinda looks like this:

..Altho, that's a picture taken off the internet coz we forgot to take photos of our own food, ha. 😅

Here're a few things I wanted to update you all on:

1. I just wanted to give you all a heads-up, that Uyen's year-end guest post is going up on the blog tomorrow, 26 December, at 8am my time, WOOT! 🥳🥳

Thanks so much Uyen, for having everything so well-organized, that made it easy for me to put your post together! 😘

2. In case you missed it, I mentioned in my last announcement (though I haven't announced this yet, on the main blog), that we will be having a group watch of Winter Sonata, starting in the 2nd week of January (I'll make the announcement in the 1st week of January), and Trent's going to be anchoring that, with his fantastic reaction posts to the show.

Our group watch is going to coincide exactly with Show's original airing date, 21 whole years ago, so this will be a commemorative group watch.

Details will be on the main blog soon, so do look out for it, and please do join in the fun!

3. Because of the group watch (which really feels like a "fated" group watch - I'll explain, in the announcement post in January), there will be a few changes to the guest post schedule.

Please do check to see if your slot has been affected. Where guest posts coincide with the group watch dates, I've bumped them up by a day, to the Friday before.

Here's the updated schedule, as it stands:

19 December: Rita (557 views to date!)

24 December: j3ffc (230 views to date!)

26 December: uyen

31 December: Sean

3 January: Martina

6 January: David

9 January: Natalia

13 January: MC

20 January: Reem (originally 21 January)

23 January: Elaine

27 January: Kun 

30 January: Trent

Right back 'atcha Beez! 💖 😘😘😘

@Beez! It would be most excellent to have you along for the WS ride, if you can handle the extreme melo craziness. I do think WS is somewhat more polished than Autumn in My Heart (the first of the seasons, with ya' boy The Towel and Mr. Won Bin and baby Song Hye-kyo), and in particular, I think Bae Yong-joon is just a better actor than Song Seung-heon. As I've gotten into it (I just finished episode 13 last night), I've started to get an inkling why everyone kind of lost their minds over it when it first came out...although not sure whether or not that's a *good* thing!

I've avoided Winter Sonata ever since I became a Kdrama fan. I started with the classics but I just knew I wouldn't be able to handle Winter Sonata or Stairway to Heaven. Besides, out of the 4 in the "seasons" dramas series, I watched the 2 that starred Song Seung heon so figured I had covered all my personal needs. 😉 But I've been missing my The Verdict community so I'll give the first 3 episodes of WS a chance.
