TVB Riches and Stitches Episode 20

I know two posts a day is uncalled for, but have you ever felt so out of breath after watching a very good episode of a VERY good chinese serial?

If I was to blog about a chinese serial, the 20th episode of Riches and Stitches would be a hell of a chinese serial episode because the last time I blogged about a TVB serial was a year ago.

Here's a link for those of you a) are too free b) have not watched the serial and would like to get a gist of the story.

Now, we addicts can get on with my episode review/rant.

Moses Chan's character is seriously damn pityful. He always gets beaten up for no reason at all. Who asked him to be so kay poh as to hang around after Eileen Yeow(Fong Siu Mei) got killed?!

Poor Moses got caught by the police when his brother Michael(Chun Cheong) ran away. Honestly, what kind of sick people are the police anyway, kicking and torturing poor Moses so that he can make their job easier by forcing him to sign the claims form? It's quite disgusting to see him being covered in blood which bled from his nose and his eyelids were sealed shut together because it was too swollen. It looks like they rubbed acid on his eyelids though.

Actually I think that Moses' character is quite durable. He has been beaten up so many times and yet he can still hang around for so long. In real life there should be a funeral already at around Episode 3 of Riches and Stitches.

I thought it was quite touching when he was being tortured by the police and you'd think he was going to die, but no, it's only episode 20, how can he die, and then he has flashbacks that one would get when one is subjected to a near death experience.

He saw himself as a kid talking to this Eunuch who is played by Alberto Lo(Yes, I know he has a strange name and yes I know I know too many TVB actors' English names) who praises him about his "great hands that will serve a purpose in the future." and his promise to Moses about protecting him no matter what.

Suddenly, we have this Alberto the Eunuch in a police uniform telling Moses not to worry and that everything will be all right and that he will save him no matter what. At this point I felt really sad for Moses because he was in so much pain, so it's okay to get hallucinations. Note that during the beating scene, he got whacked on the head repeatedly and fell on the floor and banged his head again. NEVER hit the head, lesson learnt.

Kwong Wah(Wing Lou Pan/Wing Hou Tong) comes to save the day again with his almighty triad boss power. Yay. Gigi Lai(Tong Tong) and Anne Heung(Po Hui Leng) showers Moses with concern. Bla bla bla. Mushy crap. Michael turns himself in to the police and you'd think everything is dandy and fine again.

This show actually revolves around Moses and his beautiful creation called the "Kei Pou". It's actually a type of cheongsam that the entire Shanghai has never seen before. Brought back into fashion from the Qing Dynasty by Moses(who is a tailor in the show). So we know that Moses is this guy who only hopes for his "kei pou" to gain popularity.

Cut to a scene with Moses sitting outside the hospital(oh, the show is set in the very early 1900s). We see this big bright flash of light and Alberto the Eunuch appears in front of Moses. We know it's a hallucination but we get worried when we see that Moses is very happy to see Alberto the Eunuch again. Alberto the Eunuch tells him that his "kei po" will have to serve as a mean for a revolution group to overthrow the current Republic. Long live the Qing Dynasty. He is told to make as many "kei pou" and secret letters are passed to the revolution group members through the "kei pou"s.

Now, remember the head banging on the floor scene? YES!! MOSES HAS GONE CRAZY!! ARGHHH!! At this point I was grabbing Angel and talking to the tv going "ARGHHH.. How can?!!". But I guess it does add a nice exciting twist to the serial. Moses who has always been so patient, so loving, so dilligent, so noble, so firm with his principles....loses his mind? Haw, haw.

So, Alberto the Eunuch is really his schizophrenic persona. The last scene had him approaching this abandoned house that in his eyes is this beautiful mansion done up in it's full glory. This is where the "revolution group meets" apparently. Silly Gigi follows him to the abandoned house and sees him "conversing" with Alberto the Eunuch.

I'm sure it's quite scary to see someone you respect so much suddenly talking to himself in such agigated tones. I understand how Gigi feels. Alberto the Eunuch "tells" him to kill Gigi because she "knows too much". Moses keeps screaming asking Gigi to go while he tries to "explain" to Alberto the Eunuch that Gigi's a friend. Gigi obviously wanting to help Moses tries to get him to snap out of it, and then the bloody credits roll across the scene when Moses clamps his hands around her neck. Gigi chokes. ...Sam...yi hor bla bla bla bla..*the theme song plays*

As our cantonese mothers would say, "Make show like that make,"(Jou Hei Hom Jou). Can't wait till next week.

Sorry for boring you non TVB enthusiasts. This post is an open discussion for my other readers to discuss the episode and *voice falls to a whisper* to displace my previous post if my father EVER does a surprise spot check on my blog anytime soon.

Examititis

As the end of the one month long examinations looms near, you'd think I would be clawing myself inside out so that the 8th of June arrives sooner.

As it is with every other bloody long exams, we have already declared holidays to ourselves too soon. Each day I come home smacking myself on the head thinking, "OH ya hor!! Still got three more papers. Nevermind, sleep for awhile first."

I'm sure it's a good thing that I am more relaxed as the number of papers that I have to sit for closes in on a number equivalent to the days I am away from freedom.

I can then stop being distracted by my anal habit of counting the number of pimples I have acquired when I should be studying. Things like these are the highlights of my day. "OH WOW. A Pimple on the arm? That's a first!" *reaches for digicam*

Yes, stress results in the strangest behaviors.

To de-stress, we sometimes blog. Just before my afternoon nap, I really wanted to blog. It was either blogging or reading Chien's FEMALE magazine. Text books can come just before dinner. I sat dumbfounded in front of my laptop screen and was shocked to find that, omigod, I have blogger's block. I never get blogger's block!

The thing is, NOTHING has been happening that is even remotely interesting to ME(it takes very little to interest me). I have no friends to blog about, no nonsensical observations to share, no photos to put up and I can't even camwhore because my skin is still healing from my pimples counting(and then the obligatory self surgery that follows) habit.

I won't even touch on the topic about how hairy my legs are because I have no where to go hence I don't need to shave. If your dinner is ruined already, I'll kill your supper too: These days I have to avoid wearing sleeveless tops.

Sometimes after a chapter of chemistry or two, I look longingly at my make up table and wonder what's going on inside the tubes and the jars. Is there a colony of mutated bacteria inside my untouched foundation bottle? Should I worry about the brown sediments that has settled at the bottom of my lip gloss tube?

The room is a complete mess. To quote my cousin Shevie who was arguing with her mum when she was asked to clean her room, "You should be grateful about the state of my room! Have you NOT seen Cheh Cheh's room? It will take FIVE days to clean up HER room." 

It's true. I've seen Shevie hopping and tip-toeing over my scattered A-levels notes to come to my bed to say Hello when I am on my bed with the laptop. I have not seen my parquet flooring in about a month.

Messy rooms, pimply skin and hairy bodyparts aside, I don't even DARE to think about the amount of weight I have acquired in this time span. Dad got itchy and bought loads of chocolate from KLIA during one of his return flights from Vietnam. We took nearly two weeks to sapu everything. Everyday it was chocolate, chocolate and chocolate. Tv show at 9.30? Let's eat chocolates at the same time. Feeling nervous about the impending exams? Ah, chocolate should calm me down. Think PMS is coming soon? Chocolates should help!....or does it? Ah who cares. *gobble*

Of course I have been feeling pudgy. Name me ONE woman who does not feel fat come exam season and ... er, I'll feel abit more upset and pop another chocolate. Chien, Hsien and I even had an entire MSN conversation one night complaining about how fat we feel.(Read: Feel, not become. FEEL.)

I'm so sad because I can fold my stomach in two.....OK, FINE. The real number is three. Happy?! :(

Hi, my name is Jolene and if there is a question in your head, this answer will definitely answer it: I was wrong and irrational. I was being a woman.


Jolene Lai, Jolene Lai,
Came to life in January and not July,
She is 19 years of age,
Can't wait to earn her own wage,
This dental student is home sick,
Will never be in Kedah for more than three weeks.

Subang Jaya is where she's from,
The only place she'll ever call home.
Has a boyfriend, a brother and a dog,
The things she says can give you a shock.

Especially for her father, who always gets a heart attack when he reads this blog.

Hey, rhymes!
