guess we gonna keep getting the 2nd couple 1st lol, not that i am complaining - they give us a more mature vibe - they for sure "go for it" & make things "steamy" while the main couple brings a more pure young/1st love vibe - where they r still circling each other, always on the verge of confessing.***************************************************************************************side note: Ouyang Han saying his natural hair is curly is utter b.s & made me laugh as in the rain when he was dripping wet & Li Ming found him, his hair was straight & didn't revert back to being wavy or curly. just an observation. ****************************anyway liked that Yu Lei didn't waste time but patched things up with Ouyang Han also gave him his approval (for dating Li Ming) also liked that Ouyang Han didn't hold a grudge but in turn tried to advise Yu Lei about his nonexistent progress with Chen Ke - that was sweet & well done given we an ep from the end. so am happy the bff's again. *********************************btw the whole scenario where Chen Ke's class were changed is kinda far-fetched cause the librarian sayings a few days have passed - can't be. u register for classes at the start of a semester, not a few days after finals. same with the CCTV vids bein gin her computer. that was all fast-tracked so we would find out who messed with Chen Ke & why. cause we an ep from the end?!? oh well - pity this turned a bit sloppy, hope this not gonna infect the rest of the ep as so far this has been a gem of a drama. *********************************************************************************************************************************************btw at the start we saw that He Jin cheated, that means he may have been doing all along so he doesn't deserve the scholarship & now we find out he is messing with Chen Ke, why? Chen Ke has never done anything but be kind & friendly - among all the kids in his room let alone that University why He Jin zero in on Chen Ke - so weird. & sorry but his punishment was whack - especially when the victim Chen Ke wasn't helped at all, if anything he had to now work harder & even move cause of He Jin's wrongs. how this logical that he was basically punished & He Jin got away with "murder"!?!? *************************************it's so ironic that whenever Chen Ke is troubled he pushes Yu Lei away, i get that it's cause he doesn't want to be a burden to him, but he needs to stop dictating thing for Yu Lei & actually listen & communicate with him. he might as well put a muzzle on his mouth. he decides all on his own & after that there is no dialogue. this is so unfair to do to anyone - friend or lover. yet can't hate on Chen Ke cause in his heart/mind he is doing this for Yu Lei's benefit - he isn't taking advantage of his kindness - sad. as they both end up lonely & hurting. Yu Lei bless his huge heart wont stop trying - until the end he's fighting & so am glad that he stopped trying to communicate & used action to convey his feelings, that for sure will break through Chen Ke's "walls".

Ouyang Han getting defensive is logical - that's his go too... anyone that doesn't want to get hurt will go on the offensive before the other party can... & given Li Ming reaction to wakening up next to each other (which was also understandable) i get both sides. ironically both couples got their wires crossed, cause they don't know what to say or how to verbalize what they r feeling, let alone 2nd guessing what the other is feeling thinking (in Ouyang Han & Li Ming there aren't any feelings per-say) still same same but different *********************************************************************************************************the main couple ironically do feel the same about each other, but r too in their own heads & the lack of communication is causing the misunderstanding... Chen Ke stopped Yu Lei from talking & then get's mad that he didn't talk, while Yu Lei wants to express his feelings, but stopped cause Chen Ke told him he needed space & time - ugh. ******************************************thankfully Zhang Han turned out to be a sweetheart, seeing her cousin & Chen Ke's situation decided to step in & dish out some much needed advise (in Chen Ke's case, he isn't just pushing Yu Lei away cause he isn't aware of his feelings, it's cause he is jealous of Yu Lei's other friends) so thankfully she gave him the push he needed to go seek out Yu Lei. pity the health scare threw a wrench into the whole reunion - but it also goes to show how good a a friend/person Yu Lei is, cause he didn't care about anything but being with Chen Ke, helping, supporting & comforting him - wish i had that in my life. such a gem he not only put his life on hold to follow Chen Ke, he also made peace between father & son. ********************************************on that note Li Ming is another good-guy, after taking a breath he seeked out Ouyang Han & in spite of not being welcomed warmly, he stuck around & made him thaw. the only thing i dislike is how Ouyang Han like to belittle Li Ming & call him names - that aint cute & i need him to stop ASAP. ********************************************************************************************side note: i could've done without the trope of "they met as children therefore they r destined.." that's a bit eye roll inducing - but it's written this way so it is what it is & at least that means they have the parents approval to be together (even if their approval is just that they can be bff's & they not thinking anything romantic but it's something...).

by the end i just zoned out, i think they should've ended it after the family issue was resolved. but whatever - like most finale's everything is rushed, wrapped up & given a stamp of "everything solved/resolved" everything just fits into place & everyone is overly forgiving, accepting & understanding just so we can get a happily ever after for all the character's involved. so wasn't surprised that almost ever problem turned into a non-issue, that got resolved by the end & every couple (even Win & Game that until this ep didn't exchange a word) did more then stand near each other & smile.... *****************************************but wont lie this was interesting & engaging while it lasted & even if some character's frustrated me i felt how real they were & i enjoyed it on a whole - having said that was this perfect - nope. but it was a fun watch while it lasted.

everyone is sad or happy about different thing that happened in this ep - i am frustrated with Khun, dude is a moron. he knows what happened to Klao. if in the past the visions were unclear, at this stage he knows what happened to him, his body & even who did it. yet he is hell bent on going off alone, without anyway of protecting himself??? WTF is wrong with this dude?!??? how he gonna solves his (Klao's) father's framing, find out why Klao was murdered, let alone get back to his own time line?? given how he is behaving, will he even survive?!??? also given his reckless behavior, who else is he gonna drag down with him!?? such a freakin frustrating character OMG i wanna punch him sometimes & don't find his antics that r endangering not only himself but everyone around cute - it's not! *************************************************************************************************the only ones i feel genuinely sorry for; Phop, Kaew & Chuai... the rest r the authors of their own demise as far as i can see & i really can't find it in myself to feel any pity for them. ********************************************************************************side note: if Khun survives his midnight "stroll" it's only cause it was written this way & not cause of luck - sorry dude used up all his luck by landing in Phop's home. his every need has been met & he has been catered too like a freakin baby, is he considerate? appreciative? nope - he is acting like a spoilt brat & personally i'm over it (him).

love how Eui Ju's mind works - her web-novel chapters r hilarious & u can see how much fun the actors r having playing her imaginary character's (well u know what i mean). i wish there was more of them going ham on the imaginary scenes - they so much fun to watch. & even though a lot fo people dislike Eui Ju's brother - cause of him she got to see her mains taking a romantic walk at night lol - pity the news of Ga U Su possibly moving to the US dumped a bucket of cold water all over her burning heart. poor smitten girl, not enough her bff is acting like the typical mean-girl all cause she isn't capable of having a normal conversation with her crush so she's butthurt at Eui Ju. ********************************************************************have said this in the past & will say it again that principal is funny but also hella annoying & i don't like her, am glad that Ga U Su stood-up for that troubled student. it's rare to find teacher's that actually care for their students, let alone ones that want to make a difference & go out of their way to help.

the 6th chapter of her book was hilarious i laughed so hard cause of it & it's sweet how she is crushing on Ga U Su, ironic given how she couldn't stand him from the sec they met. but also kinda logical cause he might be strict & a bit OCD about math's but he is a good person & teacher. so not shocked that by the end she realized she had a major crush on him - very sweet. pity the friend was the fly in the ointment - idk why she needed to get petty & mean like that but expected to teen girls all those hormones can drive anyone crazy lol - still didn't like she interrogated Eui Ju, so i hope Eui Ju isn't the one that needs to work at making them friends again.

guess will start with the bad; idk why Dean is so obsessed with someone who treats him like crap, guess seeking out abusive partners runs in his family. cause i am sorry, other then cast Dean as his leading man, Jack treats Dean like he hates him & he wont stop being mean to him - how this translates to appreciating him, idk - wish Dean listened to his sister & let go of Jack, learned to love & appreciate himself, so he wouldn't look for outside validation. not with the wrong person, cause sorry there a lot of people that think he is talented, like his family, his friends (like Tua) not to mention a complete stranger like Gameplay - yet the only one who's opinion counts, is Jack??? why?!? Dean hell bent on changing himself, what was wrong with him? was he a sex addict?!? nope, he worked as a host to support his family, himself & clear debts - that make him a bad-guy?? sorry, but u gotta be messed-up if u think Jack is in the right. so i aint happy that by the end Jack "benevolently" (eye roll) forgave Dean - like plz. they shouldn't have ended up together - hey should've gone their separate ways! that would be the perfect "happily ever after" for this pair - sorry they toxic for each other & just cause u love someone doesn't mean they r good for u! ***************************************************************************************************************************************************the ugly ironically was that whole scene between Raffy & Pete - OMG talk 2nd hand embarrassment, idk about others but i felt bad for Pete, even if i got why Raffy chose to out & humiliate him like he did. i think he did what he did, not just to mess with the play (get back at Jack & Timmy for catching on, that he embezzled) but he was hurt when he saw Raffy & Rome together - especially after he told Raffy he was interested in Rome. sadly he was shamed in such a way (& he is an insignificant character) that his side - the why of it all doesn't matter. & with all due respect but is Rafy wasn't a sh*t-starter from the get go no one would've automatically think he was the one who took & sent the vid of Dean & Arnold. Pete might be bad but that doesn't make Raffy a saint - ******************************************************************************************************************the good Raffy wooing Rome & Rome playing hard to get lol. it's cute & funny in it own way & Rome has been a favorite from the start so it's nice seeing him Raffy actively court him. would've loved to add Tua & Arnold to the "good" section as they finally made up & on a whole were cute - if not for the whole v injury where Arnold decided to ignore doctors orders cause he promised Tua - like WTF?!? u wanna f*ck-up ur leg for life cause u made an insignificant promise - r u kidding me?!??? yeah that whole plot was moronic & i could've done without. *********************************************************************************side note: i am kinda bummed that Boston was brought in & not really utilized to the best of his abilities, heck as Gameplay was also done dirty, i would've loved it if they bumped into each other & "stuck"....

1st off i have to say - i know i have been hating on Win a bit... ahem ok a lot but every time we see him he got that stank face on. think this the 1st time i saw him enjoying himself & actually looking cute, so i get why he & Game got together even though they best buds if u ask me as we haven't really seen them interact in anyway. now that i've gotten that off my chest i have to say the 2nd couple kinda turned out to be a toxic mess - that's how i see them, so seeing how they (the writer/director/producer) decided to "finish" that plot made me uncomfortable & ironic that they the 1st couple that moved me by their kiss, this time it turned me off - more so cause of the NC scene that followed. bummer - ***********************************************************the mains - Pi remained a douche from start to finish & i don't think he is a different person now given how he tried to mess with God's head. so i for one wasn't angry at how God reacted or treated Deiw, it was time for Deiw to do the wooing - so seeing him work for the one he loved - to regain his trust & then communicate when he agreed to talk made me happy. was happy they finally made up & were as sweet as ever - but nothing can last - not when the mother wasn't dealt with - just hope nothing is wrong with the grand father that she can use to guilt her son into giving up what he worked hard to gain - God & their relationship let alone his freedom.

this was a frustrating ep on so many levels, so Pi & Deiw never dated?!? & ironically he was the male version of Jane. he took pity on Deiw & wanted to force him out of his shell & he really thought his friends would be the people to exposé Deiw the introvert too?!? & if that wasn't enough (how he treated him, very condescendingly) now he is trying to sabotage Deiw & God's relationship - to what end?!? cause he is butthurt that Deiw is getting along with God's friends?!? petty much!?? ****************the sad fact is Deiw wont communicate, so i don't fault God for having enough & believing Pi's lies. like the whole bracelet incident - Deiw needed to drag that sh*t out?!? he couldn't just tell God it was a keepsake from his father?!? heck they still haven't had a serious conversation about his mother. but that's the problem God keeps giving Deiw space & time to be the one to initiates everything & anything, but he never does - just expects God to accommodate & cater to him - like i've said Deiw is very selfish & God is finally noticing/realizing this - how one side their relationship really is. that's the main reason they can't find middle ground, cause God goes out of his way taking all the steps to come towards Deiw, while he won't lift a finger for God. any relationship would suffer if it was this one sides cause even a giver needs to feel he not in the relationship all alone - like i am sure God is feeling at this stage. ********************************************************************************************ironically the main couple isn't the only one with issues - i get Beer is hurt cause Wan rejected him - but i don't get why he's using Ton to gaslight Wan. Wan's worries r valid - instead of communicating & reassuring him, he is playing mind games with Wan & if this forces Wan into a relationship he is worried to be in... is that something i should be happy about?!??? **************so yeah this was frustrating to watch, Deiw - when he wants can stand-up for himself but when he needs to talk he turns mute especially with God, so it's fair play the turn around where God isn't accommodating & understanding - where he needs time to himself, maybe if Deiw will be on the receiving end he will realize what he has in God & start to change for the relationships sake. **********************************************************************************************************************************side note: i hope the grandfather doesn't die & cause the rift between the mains to grow bigger or worse God forgets his justification in distancing himself from Deiw & him folding cause Deiw is mourning.

wow ep 3 blindside me - who would thought that all games aside, they would both be so genuine at this early stage & stop with the white lies.... how wholesome & heartwarming, but now i wonder (worry) if at this stage they have more or less confessed, what awaits (us) them??? *************************************************************************************************************in the previous we already got a hint that Ryo has a crush, when it started idk - cause the flashback only showed why they noticed & got close to each other, but didn't detect anything romantic pass between them. anyway given their running betting game i didn't think Ryo would basically be this candid about his feelings & even if Zen didn't hold back this time. even though there wasn't much of an NC scene it was hot & butterfly inducing given their chemistry. can't wait for more.

quite the steamy ep, that kiss between Beer & Wan was smoking & that's why i didn't get why Wan kept going on about "friends this, friends that..." friends don't kiss like that - maybe friends with benefits. but after the whole back story with Ton, i guess i get why he doesn't want to do anything that could destroy the relationship he has now with the whole group, not just Beer. but nothing last forever & life will bring changes with it if u like it or not, so that group wont remain as close as they r now. but Beer also has been pretty passive in his approach with Wan, maybe it's cause he knew of Wan's crush on Ton, that's why he was biding his time & that's why he got them together so Wan could have closure & move on... guess given Wan fears that wont happen anytime soon. hope Beer will do better then go back to acting as if they just bff's that r also roommate's. for both their sakes - ********************************************************************************************************************************the mains finally progressed towards the ending until Doc Pi popped up, the way Deiw was acting was ironic - with Pi he wanted him to be more protective & turn into a shield that would protect & shield Deiw from his friends, while now he is finding God's over protectiveness & consideration irritating & annoying... heck ur damned if u do & damned i u don't - there no pleasing Deiw is there - & should be glad that by the end they communicated & (more then) made up lol. but i don't like how Deiw jokingly belittles God all the time. it aint cute that he keeps calling him a dog - **********************************************they supposed to talk about Deiw's mother but now that Pi has popped up guess they got something more urgent to discuss - that's of Deiw will confide in God about his ex. given we don't even know how Deiw feels about him - we got 3 more eps to find out.

getting to understand why Deiw is like he is - given that overbearing mother of his, i thought she was a bit too obsessive what with all her calls, but then thought maybe i was wrong. assumed she's just worried about her son that's studying far from home & he is her own child - so parents tend to worry. but here she is crazy & cause of her behavior Deiw reverted into his shell, the fact he stood-up to her is understandable, also about time - but given his grandfathers coughing, have a bad feeling something will happen to him & then she will have a new way to guilt trip him into cutting his own wings. it's sad that there r parents like this out there (usually mothers) they bring children into the world & then never let them spread their wings - the outcome is a spinster that is all alone & doesn't have the tools to interact with society. sad life, cause it isn't off their choosing - like u can see Deiw is trying to open up to God & even his friends, but his mother will keep putting road blocks.... as this a light hearted romcom i doubt this will end realistically. so hoping we & Deiw gets a happy ending ***********************************************the fact that Deiw's ex is back in the picture is kinda ironic - as he has also "helped" pushing Deiw deep into the "closet", hope Deiw is ready to face him - cause he is the one that needs to face him not God.

a 1st kiss between the main couple should be a butterflies inducing one for the viewers, but here they show us Khun Shy diving to get away from the kissing humans - like how can i take this sh*t seriously?!?? i laughed... poor turtle is in solitary confinement - not enough he got that small ass aquarium, every chance Deiw gets he moves him into a smaller plastic aquarium that's basically the size of the turtle - Deiw doesn't come off like the loving pet owner. if anything he is using that turtle as a excuse to avoid socializing. which is valid - not everyone wants to be surrounded by people 24/7. but someone needs to free Khun Shy - ok will stop ranting about the poor captive... ahem. *************************************************************am glad Deiw stood-up to Jane, even though i don't know what she wants from him, maybe she sees herself in him or she thinks he is someone she can take under her wing & he will look up to her cause she is his savior - either way i don't get her wanting to drag him out of the "closet" when he hasn't ever shown her, he is interested in her guidance or wants to "come out". ************ btw i know i started off saying i like Game more then God's friends, but as this progress i am kinda going off him - he comes off annoying & was surprised that the guy he got close too (that i thought he would be paired with Biu) is actually the petty asshole Win - yeah not interested in either - in the least. ***************************************************************************now Wan & Beer r more interesting, even though i don't get what is really going on there, Beer isn't flirting or even wooing Wan & the way he berated him about their ex(?) friend, that ghosted them - i didn't like or understand his behavior.

that ending was freakin confusing - WTF was going on?!? the NC between Chen Hao Wei & Xiang Yong was a bit too much - not porno just too intimate where i felt like i was intruding. but was so happy for them not just to finally "come together" but to commit to each other. then we get that whack ending where they went back in time?!?? otherwise why would Chen Hao Wei be back on the island - idk what i am missing. & is happiness gained via a wish (which i kinda don't get, cause the wish wasn't for Chen Hao Wei to fall for Xiang Yong) so why would it effect them??? am sure am missing something - hope it gets clear in the next eps. ******************************************************************************************************************************also as Li Wan Zhe made a wish will it effect his relationship with Hamaguchi? how?!?

i get that given Deiw's past relationships, he has a lot of hang-ups as most introverts he rather run then stand & deal with any given situation. but dude, he can't ask God if he will never expect him to change, who knows what will happen from one day to the next?!? making him promise something like that is selfish. wouldn't u want to try harder to get out of ur comfort zone for a person u love? not like his 1st bf, that was kinda being passive aggressive into wanting him to change. in a relationship, it will come organically - the need to grow & change - no?!? here the way Deiw talks, it's my way of the highway & that's down right selfish. ironically God the extrovert is a people pleaser & a big pushover. people take advantage of him & he lets them - sad that even in his personally life he is letting Deiw dictate how their relationship will go & who rules - it should be give & take. ********so as much as i didn't like the Jane scene where she tried to do what was done to Deiw in class (& it took God a sec to put her in her place) i disliked even more how God dealt with his bandmates - they were being mean to be mean. he doesn't work for them - they not doing him a favor by letting him play with them - but they way they behaved u would think he a "special" case. *side note: the spider that hitched a ride - he gonna leave just cause Deiw went to sleep at God's?!? is that how it works?!??
