I've watched a lot of dramas that T-ara members are in (God of Study, some of Hon (will get back to it), Coffee House, My Girlfriend is a Gumiho) and I plan to watch Qri's and Boram's one episode dramas, along with Soyeon's drama/movie when it comes out.

I almost watched Cinderella Man, but Yoona is severely overrated in singing and dancing, and I'm assuming her acting is severely overrated as well just because she's a SNSD member.

Watching some Chuseok specials today, and so far, I'm watching Star Real Video, and 09/19's Bouquet (it has T-ara and Secret, my two favorite groups.) I'll probably have enough Chuseok specials to last me into next week lol.

Did some reading, a little SRS (the Korean deck had 200 cards to review when I woke up,) and later today, more Liar Game Season 2.

I never got the impression she was over-rated. She's not the best singer or dancer in the group, but (IMO) she's far from being the worst in either category. Sure, she is very popular, but I've always chalked that down to the fact that she just seems generally likable overall. Personally, I had no complaints about her acting, I just didn't like the overly dramatic "every 3rd scene is a crying scene" nature of the show.

I've got a few episodes of Bouquet (including that one), but haven't had a chance to watch through a full episode yet.

Wow...200...was that from letting it build or is that a result of some of the mass new card entry you were doing. I know I'm annoyed when there are more than about 40 due...lol

Some days I'll add 100 cards, and at least 90 of them will always show up on the same day. I'm at a point where it's easier for me to remember vocab (kanji/hanja hasn't helped me, since I hardly pay attention to them,) so I feel comfortable doing it. I did let it build from 70 cards, since I didn't finish my SRS reviews last night. For my Korean deck, I generally review 8-10 cards per minute, 6-12 per minute in my kanji deck, and usually 5-6 per minute in my Japanese deck (gotta remember readings too.)

Ok...now my interest is piqued...nearly the first two pages of Kpopella are Chuseok specials. What exactly are Chuseok specials?

BTW, I didn't realize these specials included the various dance battles...I freaking love those. :)

Yeah, the Chuseok specials are usually the same as the Lunar New year specials (some might be different, most are the same.) I love the specials, but it sucks that I don't have the time to watch them all this weekend. I got dramas to watch too, so probably two weeks from now I'll finish all the specials I wanted to watch.

Almost done with the first Full Metal Panic light novel. I've finished five books in Korean, but zero in Japanese.

Mainly today, I was at smart.fm at school, making a bunch of cards from the Japanese Core 2000 series that I'm gonna export to my anki deck at home. Though, I couldn't finish each card, just got the reading for the kanji since it's much more efficient to juse use Rikaichan for definitions instead of looking them up in a dictionary.

Oh Warp, if you wanna see how bad my Anki deck gets on Tuesdays and Thursdays when I'm away all day.

Remembering the Kanji: Due 124, New 4
Japanese: Due 57 New 2
Korean: Due 217 New 12
Katakana: Due 1

(I don't sync my decks to Anki's site, so I can't review at school.)

Yeah, I can't imagine not syncing my decks. I review both at home and at work (and I should be getting a Droid soon, then I can review on that, too). I can see how not being able to review during the day could let the reviews build up like that.

I just got Korean to catch up on. I was watching part of m-flo's 10th anniversary concert, and the Chinese site (youku) started loading slowly after 40 minutes, so I started doing my SRS reps while I waited 10 minutes for 1 minute worth of video to load. I had to suspend nearly 40 cards in my RTK deck lol. I tend to do that when too many reviews pile up.

Anyway, so far today, I've read very little, did some SRS reviews, watched two episodes of Kim Tak Goo, watched the Khuntoria portion of WGM, mined some Japanese songs for vocab (Home Made Kazoku, BoA, Seamo), listening to music while doing so. I'm about to download part 1 of the idol olympics (I'm assuming part 2 airs Sunday in Korea.) Gonna watch that, finish SRS reviews, add cards, watch Liar Game Season 2, and listening to more of both languages while I do boring crap, commonly known as homework.

Hmmm...that does sound interesting...{starts download}

I'm really liking some of these 추석 specials. The "Idol Trot Battle" and "Star Couple Challenge Cup" were both pretty entertaining (and the "MBC Star Dance Battle", as always).

BTW: I've been on a big "vocab-adding" binge lately (i.e. I'm finally plowing through that notebook I mentioned before and turning those written down words into SRS example sentence entries) which is doing wonders for comprehension. I should have done this a *long* time ago.
