Okay, so it's around 0030 in the morning now, and I'm wide awake with my parents in the living room. They're watching telly while I while away time on my mother's laptop (since I shut mine down already).

Anyway, lately, if you keep up with my fb status updates (the older ones of a few days, last week I think), you'll find out that I've been watching Hana Yori Dango. I'll refer to it as HYD here.

HYD really seems perfect. Sure, so the main couple (Domyouji Tsukasa and Makino Tsukushi) have their own problems, both in season one and two, but a friend who's finished the series informs me that they get together happily in the end.

Looking at the television screen, it's some drama called Story of Time. It's of village life roughly how many decades? Ago? I don't know.

But everything there seems perfect too. Like sure they have problems but they don't need to worry about what happens, it gets solved in the end.

Why do us people watch such stuff anyway? It's just an illusory utopia that's on the big screen, and it's not going to happen in real life.

Maybe we watch it because we think that it's a good way to escape.

You know, a good source for our imaginations. For mine and for every single fangirl out there, that is. Fanboys too. It just makes me think, maybe these dramas/idol dramas are actually good for us.

It gives us a break from our normal life, let's us believe that such a utopia actually exists, it allows us to dream, to daydream, of better futures. I bet that's where the phrase 'tomorrow will be better' comes from.

Anyway, to end off with some nice pictures:
