Kiina: Impossible Crime Investigation




I'm a bit sad to end watching this drama. 
It was really good too! ほんとにいいでした!
I wonder if they will make a second series...




Well,
now it's time to start another one. ^^v ね?






Introducing....KIINA
Alternate Title: キイナ:不可能犯罪捜査官:/ Impossible Crime Investigator
Genre: Mystery, Detective, Comedy
Episodes: 9
Release: January 29 2009
Theme Song: Change The World by: Michi
Summary: Haruse Kiina seems like a normal 29y.o. at first glance, but in fact,
she is head of a special investigation unit dealing with strange cases. 
Remember the actress from Hataraki Man ?
She is in this drama too, and as usual she is a workaholic.
She forgets to eat and sleep, until the case is solved.
You would like a job like that right? xD just kidding...
Anyways, this will be the drama I will watch for the time being.
Now that school is starting, maybe this will encourage me not to eat and sleep
until I finish my work. xD

you may also like MR. BRAIN drama.

died in an accident. And for more shocking news, she also had a daughter that

The drama is very sweet, and family oriented. I wouldn't mind trading my life,

I just watched this movie yesterday, and I was entertained the whole time. It's a LOT different from the typical stories of the girl having cancer or something untreatable. I laughed and smiled as I watched this story unfold before me. I hope you like it too.

Thoughts of the New Year

For a while now,
I was thinking of writing another blog
that is a bit different from this one.
But I didn't know what to write about...


One night after my mom and me went
home from shopping, I was rambling how
parents in America piss me off.


And it hit me!
I should write about the things that piss
me off, or at least things that irritate me.
What do you think?


I thought,
it may be too opinionated and people
may not like it, or the opposite.
I'm still waiting to hear what others say
about this.


Instead of rambling about things many
times, I could write about it!
Who knows? Maybe it can turn into a
book (hon).

Happy New Years 2010!!!

Starting the new year a new way!
So I did learn that ---'s brother doesn't really like me...
but who cares right?
Anyways,
I never did practice japanese during the break,
with all the work i put into the presents?
there was no time left! T_T
Though,
as I write in the new MacBook Pro Laptop that
we purchased with the money we got from the car
crash,
I am happy to say that this year will end in a good
way.
My hair is black, --- is back, everyone is healthy,
and it looks like I have a huge book list waiting for me
to read! How fun! (really it is)
The only thing I need to fix is the Ipod and Itunes,
but I don't really feel like doing that right now.

Let's start the new year with a new favorite song no?!
