The Bling days 《闪亮的日子》
The story centers around four girls, who were all born in 1965 and lived on the same corner street, on how they adapt to the culture changes brought on by Taiwan’s economic boom of the 1980’s. This is the most fantastic taiwan drama! Even though it got 63 episodes, but every episodes appeal to my heart.
personal rating :8/10
剧情介绍
光明街五十四巷是1980 年代台北市内常见的一条平凡死巷，而住在这条巷子里的几户人家又生活得特别紧密，像是巷口经营冰果室的李家、父亲是管区的方家、家中开诊所的向家，还有隐藏家庭秘密的陈家。这四家人里有纯外省人、有纯台湾人、有各掺一半的，还有掺半客家人。即使他们背景各异，却有一个共通点，那就是家里都有一个五十四年次的女儿，并且都比儿子要惹人注目。
方中强(那维勋 饰)和向光正(张兆志 饰)是铁哥儿们，但偏偏光正的未婚妻月霞(李佩甄 饰)却搞砸了中强和宝琴(王琄 饰)的新婚之夜，於是宝琴和月霞闹翻，直到三年後，光正将诊所搬到中强家对面，而宝琴和月霞在同一天生了女儿以安(白歆惠 饰)和千千(Linda 饰)，两个女人终於和好，另中强和光正松了口气，只是女人心海底针，两个女人人还是常常会为了小事而一言不合。
宝琴和月霞因为盼到了个女儿而欣喜不已，相反地，陈家妈妈贵美(琇琴 饰)却因为生了玉婷(李佳豫 饰)而心灰意冷，因为唯有生男孩才能让她的细姨身份稍微提高一些，而这是一个不能说破的秘密，也造成了长子品章(李运庆 饰)的叛逆。
以安、千千、玉婷三个女孩出生在同一年，而那一年正是台湾经济开始自给自足的时候，但三个女孩一出生就注定在不同起跑点上。
方家女儿以安遗传了山东人的高头大马，个性丝毫没有在注重家教的方妈妈期待下而变成淑女，凡事喜欢强出头，正义感有馀，但判断力不足;向家的女儿千千长得最美，人见人爱，身为独生女，被父母宠得娇滴滴的，拥有 54 巷第一个芭比娃娃，世界只围著她转;陈家的女孩玉婷长相最平凡，但却是五十四巷里最会念书的孩子，可偏偏母亲是个没有名分的细姨，从小生长在重男轻女的家庭，只能自卑又无声地承受著母亲发在她身上的怨怒。
三个个性迥异的女孩在十岁那年，以安为了替千千抢回心爱的芭比娃娃而出头，和品章联手把小霸王成才(郝劭文 饰)的头打破一个洞，从此名震五十四巷，但也因此，以安、千千、玉婷发誓从此要相互扶持、永不分离。就在大家都认为以安是这条巷子的孩子王时，来路不明的李家搬到 54 巷，似乎拥有神秘力量又聪明乐观不向坎坷命运低头的佩芬(戴君竹 饰)，却因为帮众人讨回了生平第一笔赚的钱，而渐渐地成为了众人崇拜的对象。於是， 54 巷的四个女孩在时代的潮流上，迎向属於她们的闪亮的日子，她们的故事就由此开始…

STANDARD LETTER FOR DUMPING A MAN
Dear _______________,
I regret to inform you that you have been eliminated from further contention as Mr. Right. As you are probably aware, the competition was exceedingly tough and dozens of well-qualified candidates such as yourself also failed to make the final cut.
I will, however, keep your name on file should an opening come available. So that you may find better success in your future romantic endeavors, please allow me to offer the following reason(s) you were disqualified from the competition:
(Check those that apply)
1. ___Your last name is objectionable. I can't imagine taking it, hyphenating it, or subjecting my children to it.
2. ___Your first name is objectionable. It's just not something I can picture myself yelling out in a fit of passion.
3. ___The fact that our first dining experience to date has left MY wallet a little lighter, and YOUR pants a little tighter!
4. ___Your inadvertent admission that you "buy condoms by the truckload" indicates that you may be interested in me for something other than my personality.
5. ___You failed the 20 Question Rule, i.e., I asked you 20 questions about yourself before you asked me more than one about myself.
6. ___Your constant emailing, shows me you have way too much time on your hands!
7. ___Your legs are skinnier than mine. If you can FIT into my pants, then you can't GET into my pants.
8. ___You're too short. Any son that we produced would inevitably be beaten up repeatedly at recess.
9. ___You're too tall. I'm developing a chronic neck condition from trying to kiss you.
10. ___You have a hairy back.
11. ___I find your inability to fix my car extraordinarily unappealing.
12. ___The fact that your apartment has been condemned reveals an inherent slovenliness that I fear is unbreakable.
13. ___The phrase "My Mother" has popped up far too often in conversation.
14. ___You still live with your parents.
15. ___Although I do enjoy the X-Files, I find your wardrobe of Star Trek uniforms a little disconcerting.
16. ___Your frequent references to your ex-girlfriend lead me to suspect that you are some sort of psychotic stalker.
17. ___Your ability to belch the alphabet is not a trait that I am seeking in a long term partner.
18. ___Your height is out of proportion to your weight. If you should, however, happen to gain the necessary 17 vertical inches, please resubmit your application.
19. ___Somehow I doubt those condoms that I found in your overnight bag were really necessary for a successful business trip.
20. ___I am out of your league; set your sights lower next time.
Sincerely, _________________________________

The gender version of a haircut
Women's version:
Woman2: Oh! You got a haircut! That's so cute!
Woman1: Do you think so? I wasn't sure when she gave me the mirror. I mean, you don't think it's too fluffy looking?
Woman2: Oh God no! No, it's perfect. I'd love to get my hair cut like that, but I think my face is too wide. I'm pretty much stuck with this stuff I think.
Woman1: Are you serious? I think your face is adorable. And you could easily get one of those layer cuts - that would look so cute I think. I was actually going to do that except that I was afraid it would accent my long neck.
Woman2: Oh - that's funny! I would love to have your neck! Anything to take attention away from this two-by-four I have for a shoulder line. Woman1: Are you kidding? I know girls that would love to have your shoulders. Everything drapes so well on you. I mean, look at my arms - see how short they are? If I had your shoulders I could get clothes to fit me so much easier.
Men's version:
Man2: Haircut?
Man1: Yeah.
HIS and HERS Road Trip
HERS:
Pulls off at wrong exit.
opens window asks directions of a knowledgeable police officer
Arrives at destination presently.
HIS:
Pulls off at wrong exit absolutely positive it's the correct one.
Drives five miles into wilderness, still thinks he's right.
Drives an extra 5 miles just in case.
Finally rolls down window just to get fresh air
Pulls up to a 7 -11 Gets three hot-dogs, a large slurpee, and beef jerky
Asks person behind counter how to get back onto the highway.
Gets back into car. Laughs at the idea of looking at a map as he pulls away from the 7-11.
Drives down a dirt road with no street lights insisting this is the way back because guy from 7-11 said it was.
Almost hits a deer
Curses the night
Curses you
Curses the large slurpee
Drives and fiddles with radio.
Yells at you for suggesting the map again
Admits he didn't want to go to Thanksgiving at your sister's anyway.
He hates your sister.
Ever since she called him a pernicious weasel
He had to look up pernicious.
Couldn't find a dictionary.
Finally found a dictionary
Couldn't spell pernicious.
Seethes at the memory of it all
But she is laughing inside...
And of course you're still lost.

Story of Time (光陰的故事)
Personal Rating: 7.5/10
I just finished all the 54 episodes recently in office, thank you very much.
My job pays me a neat salary to watch dramas all day long, maybe i have the best job in the world but is blissfully aware of it
*snicker
It’s long (54 episodes) and it has way too many major characters (31 just look at the poster!) but it’s one of the best real life stories I’ve seen in a while. The story starts in the 1960’s in a small community in Taiwan. The drama is revolves around the lives of several families who are closely tied to each other. It begins when most the major characters are still children and follows them through their rebellious age, their first crush, their growth into adults. It is truly a story of “laughter and tears”. Their childhood and young adulthood is filled with innocent mischief, and the bonds between friends are amazing.
‘Story of Time’ is also filled with history. Many of the family are filled with retired soldiers who left their families in mainland China. They are banned from returning in the ’60s and starts a new life in Taiwan. I’m not clear about the actual history if that period but this drama is a great way to get a taste of life in that period.

The story may seem boring and uninteresting... like a gramdma's tale kinda story. But it's really a top-notch drama, better than most of the idol drama offerings out there. You get a strong script, solid acting, tonnes and tonnes of humor peppered throughout the 107 episodes and good looking actors/actresses - all in one big, neat package.

Plot:
Gong Choi-king (Crystal Tin) is brought into the palace with her daughter, Lau Sam-ho (Charmaine Sheh), and their serving girl, Yiu Kam-ling (Tavia Yeung). As she comes from a very distinguished line of jewellery makers in the land, she is assigned the task of making a beautiful headpiece in the shape of a phoenix, inlaid with precious stones and tails made from the feathers of exotic birds for the Empress Dowager (Susan Tse). However, during a flower viewing outing, the phoenix headpiece worn by the Empress Dowager suddenly bleeds tears of blood. Taking this as a sign of bad luck, she throws it away and demands that Choi-king be punished. She dies as a result of the harsh beatings. Before she passes away, she tells Sam-ho to always remember the significance of her name, "Speak good words, do good deeds, show good will". (Sam-ho literally means three goodness), and help and work together with Kam-ling.
At the same time around Choi-king's death, Lee Yi (Moses Chan), the young prince of the then Dowager Concubine Cheng (Mary Hon), meets the six years old Sam-ho. He showed kindness to Sam-ho by giving her some white flowers from Choi-king's favourite tree (chinese viburnums (瓊花) so she can take it to her dying mother. Later when he had to leave the palace without his mother, when he feigned mental illness as an excuse to escape the imminent death threat by the Empress Dowager, Sam-ho gives him some sweet lotus seed candy to comfort him on the journey. Because of this, the young prince develops an affection for her.
The Imperial Household Bureau is responsible for managing and directing all household services to the Emperor and the Imperial family of the Tang Dynasty. It is made up of four departments, namely the Houses of Jewellery, Attire, Food, and Furnishing. Sam-ho and Kam-ling are introduced into the bureau in their childhood and are brought up as the disciples in the palace. The two girls are very diligent. Yuen Tsui-wan (Susanna Kwan), Head of the Jewels, and Chung Suet-ha (Michelle Yim), Head of Attire, are both very fond of Sam-ho for she is a kind-hearted young girl and shows great capabilities in the decorative arts of jewellery and silk work. Both of them fight bitterly to have Sam-ho in their departments. In the end, Sam-ho is assigned to Department of Attire while, Kam-Ling is assigned to the Department of Jewellery.
Years later, Sam-ho meets Ko Hin-yeung (Kevin Cheng) the palace scholar and chess teacher, where a secret love blossoms between them. The young prince Yi, now grown up, returns to the palace and becomes the Emperor after evading assassinations with the help of Sam-ho and Hin-yeung. He promotes Hin-yeung as the Palace General because of his faithfulness. Sam-ho later becomes the Head of the Jewel Department. Even though the Emperor has deep feeling for Sam-ho and wants have Sam-ho as his concubine, he decides to bury his feeling for her when he discovers that Hin-yeung and Sam-ho are deeply in love and knew they were planning to leave the palace together once the emperor was safe.
Sam-ho and Kam-ling continue to enjoy a very close friendship, treating each other as sisters and this provokes jealousy among other palace girl servants. Time and again some of them will try to get Sam-ho and Kam-ling into trouble. However, Sam-ho's honesty and kind attitude endears many powerful people in the palace to her and they always help her out. Whereas, Kam-ling uses her cunning mind to get rid of her enemies. As time passed, Kam-ling realised that to stop the bullying and to be able to survive in the palace she has to be someone powerful and respected. Therefore, she slowly works on a scheme to gain favour of the Empress Dowager Cheng, Yi's mother. She was eventually chosen as one of the Yi's concubines. From there she works on a bigger scheme to get rid of all her competitors, which she includes Sam-ho.
I am watching this show in office now.
So addicted!
