  1. I'm not picky about the format the books come in; like @Tofu I bounce between e-book, physical and audio books just depending on what is most convenient at the time. I'm currently trying to work my way through Mansfield Park by Jane Austen. Unfortunately, I have a hard time getting through the first couple chapters of any book so it's taking me forever. 😂 I mostly read romance and mystery books but I have a weakness for true crime also. I find it so fascinating! @OsmanthusTea I flat out refused to watch Game of Thrones past a certain point. I love the books and I've been waiting YEARS for the next one to come out. It's kind of irritating that GRRM has been making his loyal readers wait for more than a decade for the next book but he suddenly has time to make a tv show out of it. 😒
  2. LX's dad figured it out for sure. He mentions it specifically to JJ's dad in one of the past couple eps. They were joking about keeping JJ in the family and not marrying her outside at the time. As for sending a text to tell the friend he's not interested, that's not really LX's style. If it was, he would've just sent JJ a text at some point telling her he liked her! He's more the "tell it to your face" kind of person. I'm choosing to give him the benefit of the doubt and say he was worried about getting through security and didn't want to miss his flight AND didn't want to break her heart before he'd even thought of how to confess to JJ. @Tofu Did you catch up to today's ep yet?
  3. Don't worry @SilverMoonTea, I already busted him with screenshot proof! Edit: No need to torture. I just did EZMODE detective things. 😂
  4. @LaLa If you use the same email, it will automatically port all your old information over. If you use a different email then you can re-take the quiz. But I think it also depends on how long ago you last logged in. If it was when it was still Pottermore, you can probably take it again. I'd logged in since it changed to Pottermore so all my info [house, wand, patronus] is already saved. Patronus:
  5. Yes, it used to be Pottermore. They revamped it and changed the name a few years ago after the movies came out if I recall correctly.
  6. The house motto fits really well with my personality actually. I wasn't at all surprised with my house. "...Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure..."
  7. This and the gym. Yep! My house:
  8. @mademoisellesia I wasn't before but I re-enrolled starting this year to finish up my degree. I'll still be here, but I'll have to prioritize schoolwork over JH if it comes down to it. =/ Edit: For all the Potterheads, what is your house?
  9. @mademoisellesia My apologies. I've been busy with stuff here and IRL. And it's only going to get worse here in September when I go back to school. lol
  10. I don't know who asked but I am in this Potterhead category also. 😂
  11. Summary: When five long time friends are brought back to work in the same hospital as professors, great stories are bound to follow. We get to watch as each of the friends tackles life in their own way. Whether it be through love trials, illness or just general everyday life, these five will show you what true friendship goals are. Characters: Song Hwa is the professor of neurology who loves camping in her free time and makes her pals laugh with her off key singing voice. Next is Ik Jun, the professor of general surgery. He's a goofball who seems to be the most carefree of the group but he is also the most mature. He has an adorable little boy and their interactions are easily some of the cutest in the show. Then we have Jeong Won, a pediatric surgeon who has a weak spot for kids and all things winter. All of his siblings are nuns/priests and it's his dream to join them. Fourth is Joon Wan, the resident professor of cardiothoracic surgery. He appears cold and calculating but truly cares about and gives his all for his patients. Last but not least is our OBGYN, Seok Hyung. Great at his job, he truly enjoys life and just wants to spend time with those he loves. Review: This show has multiple seasons and the first season primarily focuses on character introduction and development. We get to learn the ins and outs of the friendship these five have shared since their med-school days and watch as they grow and support one another. While each episode tends to revolve around a specific set of patients, most of our attention is drawn to the friends and those who work in the hospital with them. The love lines span from quick burn romance that's just starting to a long divorced man who has no interest in love at all. The plot itself is very slice of life with a few memories thrown into the mix to explain the characters' backstories as we follow them in their everyday life. While some episodes, especially at the beginning, are very addictive other episodes barely held my attention long enough to get through the story. I will definitely be waiting to see what happens in the next season as I really love seeing the friends interact, but I don't really think I'll be re-watching more than a handful of scenes from this season. Pros: 1. The friendship is amazing to watch. Any scene with all of them together or Ik Jun with his son is pure gold. 2. Majority of the love-lines are cute but realistic. It's fun watching them unfold. 3. The songs on the OST are lovely, as are the songs the friends sing in their band scenes. Cons: 1. There are multiple seasons so if you're like me and don't want to wait long, this is not a show for you..... at least not until all the seasons are out. 2. Because there are multiple seasons, some of the pacing is really slow and it's hard to stay interested. 3. I wasn't a fan of the first romance that comes to fruition. It didn't feel very genuine to me and I kept wanting to fast forward through all their scenes. Plot/Story: 7/10 Cast/Acting: 10/10 Production Value: 9/10 Re-watch Value: 6/10 Overall: 8/10
  12. I'm only on ep 4 right now but I hate how the moms in this have just abandoned their kids. It's horrible! I like that I can already see inklings of where the romance is going to take us now that they're in high school. I loved it when Ling Xiao's dad went off on his mom though. She has no room to talk about how LX is being raised when she literally gave him to Jian Jian when they were kids. The nerve!
  13. This gym rat is going to her happy place. 🥳

  17. @ CamelKnight Same! I put off watching S5 because I didn't want to binge and not have any more to watch but then they renewed for yet another season! They say S6 is going to be the end but we'll see. 😉
  18. Synopsis: The Devil went down to Georgia.... or did he? When the reigning King of Hell decides to abandon his post in favor of running a nightclub in Los Angeles, there's bound to be trouble.
