My current craze! Hehe...

Watching Spanish and Tagalog telenovelas (or dramas) have always been a favourite hobby of mine. I can still remember the very first drama series that I followed. It was back in 1996 and Green Green Grass by the River (a Mandarin series) was the craze. All my friends watched it, from Chinese to Malays and of course me! I don't know what it was that got me hooked, but at 6.30pm every day, you'd find me in front of the TV waiting patiently for my drama to start.

In high school, when hormones start raging and the male species no longer seemed disgusting, Spanish telenovelas were the "in-thing". I remember being a follower of La Usurpadora, Secreto De Amor, Rubi, Rosalinda...and the list goes on. The story lines of course ran along the same lines but the guys...!! Hahaha...they were the reasons why I gave up my afternoon naps, spend hours on the net looking for information about them and then being "heartbroken" after finding out that they were either married or taken. Oh my...to think that I actually went crazy after fictional characters!!

And yet...as I left my teenage years and stepped into my 20s, I still find myself hooked on telenovelas. I must admit that after years and years of watching and drooling over all the Latino hunks....it's difficult (very!!) for any guy to match up to the standards that I have set. It's sad really because, for all I know, my Latino hunks may be bad-tempered, foul-mouthed guys and yet, on screen, they are the perfect gentleman!!

Nevertheless, telenovelas are like "adult fairy tales". While I used to dream of Prince Charming from Cinderella or Sleeping Beauty, I now think of Jorge Luis Pila (Lisandro, Tita Lita!!) or even Jericho Rosales!!

My current craze...is Korean dramas!! Although it's only one particular drama: Princess Hours (I've watched it once and am currently watching it again!!)...I'm hooked!! And, I can't believe I'm going to say this but some Koreans are cute!! I think Daniel Henney is good-looking but then, he's of mixed parentage. However, Kim Jung Hoon (pic) is cute!! I simply loooveee his character in the drama!! Haha...yeah..I can just hear some of my friends laughing!!! Even the songs are nice!!

Hmm...of course..that's just the drama/series craze. I've also got a Hindi movie craze and with so many young actors rising, I'm spoilt for choice. My current hottie of Bollywood?

Shahid Kapoor!! Don't you think he's just sooo cute?!! And he's young!! Haha!! I've watched two of his movies countless times and I still smile everytime he comes on screen!! I must be going nuts!!

He's got a new movie out and I've been searching high and low for the DVD. Can't wait to see him in action!!

I'd better stop here or I'll be raving on and on and on about Kim Jung Hoon, Shahid Kapoor, Kim Jung Hoon, Shahid Kapoor....*smiles*
