Three Kingdoms RPG Finale



Just finished watching this show tonight. What I've gotta say? WHAT ENDING WAS THAT? Well, maybe it's because that it is Producer Lau Kar Ho's last time with TVB that all his show's ending are tragic.

So the finale was during the war in Chibi. Szema Shun (Kenneth Ma) had earlier suggested to Cao Cao (Law Lok-Lam) to strap planks of wood with metal chains to form a bridge to connect all ships together so that his soldiers would not get sea sick. It was actually Zhou Yu's (Ruco Chan) idea of sending someone he "ignored" to give Cao Cao that idea. He knows that on that day, it will very windy and this will help fire to spread faster. Zhou Yu sent another of his people that he beaten up as a scheme so that Cao Cao fall into Zhou Yu's trap.

Both Sun Quan (Pierre Ngo) and Cao Cao's army were at the war ground. The weather was kinda weird. Just the right weather for Szema Shun to go back to the present. It was getting windier when the wind stopped blowing. Sun Quan questioned how can this happen when Zhou Yu said that it will be windy. Zhuge Liang (Raymond Lam) was asked to help suggest a way to win the war. He too can't think of a way to help. Sun Quan remembered earlier that Zhou Yu made an oath that he will receive death as a punishment should he fail to win the war. Sun Quan was about to chop his head off when Zhuge Liang remembered that Szema Shun said last time in determination that Zhuge Liang will win the war. So, he stopped Sun Quan from killing Zhou Yu. He said that he's willing to shorten his life to borrow some wind from God.

And so, he did some rituals. Damn, if I had a camera at hand, I will so capture the moment when Zhuge Liang was doing that. I know he was faking that whole ritual thing to "borrow some wind". But he believed in Szema Shun. And yes, the wind did come and Sun Quan was so happy. Zhou Yu should finally "kow tow" to Zhuge Liang. That guy is really "CHOK"!!

And that "beaten up" guy received signal to send the said supplies to Cao Cao but in fact, he was going there to light Cao Cao's ship on fire and the bridge was to help spread the fire from one ship to another. When Cao Cao saw that the wind came back, he was angry. He was even furious to know that all his ships are on fire. Before that, Szema Shun sneakily runs off to find Song Yao (Tavia Yeung). Cao Cao became furious and wanted to punish Szema Shun and turn around to see that he's not there. Szema Shun found Song Yao and wanted to bring her back to his hometown and showed her the weird blue time travel portal that will bring them back to his hometown. Lo and behold, he bumped into Cao Cao and ordered to kill Szema Shun. Thankfully, Fan Kan (Cheung Wing Hong) came in time to save Szema Shung.

I really love the bromance between Szema Shun and Fan Kan. What a short goodbye for Szema Shung and unknowingly to Fan Kan. So, Szema Shun and Song Yao ran towards the time portal. Unfortunately, only Szema Shun can enter and not Song Yao. So sad! So, he was brought back to the present and he fainted.

When he woke up, he was in the hospital and his family was there. Szema Shun went "missing" for about two years! That's long! Szema Shun's father (Ha Yu) was glad that he's back. And his mother's catch phrase and I think most mums will say this, "Be mature, child!" His sister explained that he was in SEA's forest and couldn't receive any phone signal. Thank God, Szema Shun had his sister that believes in him.

Szema Shun and his sister went to meet the Professor who believes in time travel to ask him about a few things.

a) That time travel portal only appears again in another less than 500 years or more than 500 years.
b) The possibility of someone from the past to come to the present is slim.
c) The people from the past can come to the future if Szema Shun were to go to the place they last
    met. I think that's what the professor said. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Szema Shun thought that he would not see Song Yao again. From then on, he became a better person. His two friends who betrayed him in the 1st episode was at his dad's restaurant to apologize to him. Szema Shun came up with a new "18 ways of HK guys". A new and improved and way better than his previous one. And at that time, there was a weather news saying that there's a typhoon. So, Szema Shun went to the place he last came back from the time portal. But it was a false alarm.

A few years later, Szema Shun has 118 fast food chains. And customers can win a Three Kingdom historical figure figurine if they can say the "18 ways of HK guys" under 10 seconds. In his office room, there's a feather hand fan that Zhuge Liang has. And there's a full body portait painting of Song Yao. While eating the pork mantao burger, he was looking at the weather condition on his computer but still no typhoon.

30 years later, I think he's around his fifties or sixties, he's still waiting for a typhoon to happen. But, he got a heart problem. Suddenly, he saw a huge typhoon on his computer screen and rushed to the same place. He was so happy that he can finally meet Song Yao again. But I think because he was too happy, he got a heart attack. I'm like, where's his bloody medication? Didn't he bring it? And he's like three feet awat from the time portal. Earlier I said the ending was tragic. Szema Shun succumbed to his illness and died there. His eyes still open, which usually means that the person has some unfinish business. Just after he died, down came Song Yao from the time portal. It's kinda funny that Szema Shun always fall down from the portal but Song Yao can come down gracefully without falling.

She looked like she was gonna cry. She saw Szema Shun on the ground and walked towards him. She bent down and touched his face. I was hoping she would say Brother Wan Shun like she always do but no. She touch his face, camera zooms out and show ends just like that. Then what will happen to Song Yao? She's from the past, how is she gonna survive in the present? So many questions!! I'm not satisfied with this ending! I still prefer Witness Insecurity's ending. At least that one provided some closure for me!

Did I mentioned in the Witness Insecurity Finale's post that there were scenes of the couple together in the credits? In Three Kingdom RPG, there were those kind of scenes too when Szema Shun was about to die.

I shall silently complain about the ending.

Witness Insecurity Finale Part 2

I'll continue where I last stop.

Back at Shawn's old house, Hui Sir is sending an email to Fuadi to tell him that he wants to go to Indonesia to find new information about Sapura's case. It was so brave of Hui Sir to go back to his own house to get his passport! But then, Shawn told Hui Sir that he shouldn't waste his time to go to Indonesia as Fuadi isn't free. Since Sapura is dead, of course he has to leave his assets to someone. And out of nowhere, an unknown lady claims that she's Sapura's mistress and wants to get half of Sapura's assets. It was said that the lady helped Sapura to get a new identity in Indonesia 33 years ago when Sapura went there. It is also said that the lady helped Sapura to he is right now. Hui Sir finds the case 33 years ago to be fishy and wants to find out more.

Shawn ask him to just forget it. He explains that the upper class society will never get arrested for doing any illegal things. He said the only way to fight against Kiu Kong San is to kill him. He even bought two penknife. What a joke! When Hui Sir ask about the upper class not getting arrested, Shawn explained that in HK, money is everything. He said that the rich just have to pay money to someone to do their dirty works and if the police investigates, the rich just have to pay someone to be the scapegoat. And what he said is so true in today's society.

Hui Sir figuring out what happened 33 years ago

Shawn suggested that maybe Kiu Kong San and Sapura either commited theft or kidnap that they got their first capital. Hui Sir said that can be a possibility. Shawn continued suggesting that they robbed a bank's van which carry money, robbed a bank, robbed a jewelry store, scams, etc.

For days, the Kiu brothers don't have news about Hui Sir whereabouts. Kiu Kong San is definitely worried that Hui Sir will find out the truth and evidences regarding it and hand it over to the police. He wants to hire two private investigator to find out his whereabouts and even to follow his uncle, aunt and both cousin brother and sister which is Jo Jo. He even wants someone to follow Chi Lam, worrying that Hui Sir will go and meet her. Ok, anyone who has relations with Hui Sir will be followed. What a huge stalker!

Back at Shawn's house, Hui Sir is still on the internet, finding for more clues. He even printed out news that happened in between 1977-1979 regarding both Kiu Kong San and Sapura and other relevent sources. He later got a call from Fuadi and asked Fuadi how Sapura got his first capital which Fuadi doesn't know since Sapura never said about it. Hui Sir made a guess that maybe Sapura and Kiu Kong San did something illegal and wanted to know from Fuadi whether Sapura acted weirdly. Well, there's one thing kinda weird that Sapura hires  a lot of bodyguards. Hui Sir was thinking that rich people hire bodyguards cause they are scared of getting kidnapped. He further conclude that both those rich moguls were once involved in a kidnapping plan.

Hui Sir said it's something to do with psychology that Sapura kidnap before that's why he hired a lot of bodyguards cause he's scared of being kidnapped. Hui Sir kinda guessed that those rich moguls kidnapped Shawn's dad and asked Shawn's relationship with Kiu Kong San. Shawn said he's a son of one of Kiu Kong San's friend. Shawn's late mother found it weird why Kiu Kong San treated their family so good. And as a joke, he owed their family in the past life when in fact he owed them in the present life. Ok, fast forward abit, all they need to do is to get Kiu Kong San's DNA because at the scene of the crime there was 3 types of blood stains.

When Hailey was packing, Hui Sir called and asked her out. She is being followed by the two PI that her dad hired.




Chi Lam : Ah Sum.
Hui Sir : You've reached? Please sit.
Chi Lam : *orders iced lemon tea* You asked me out, is there anything?
Hui Sir : Previously, I was in bad mood, I wanted to say sorry.
Chi Lam : Actually, I didn't keep it in heart.
Hui Sir : *exhales and hands out a box* For you. See whether you like it.
Chi Lam : *opens box and looks at Hui Sir with a quizzical face*
Hui Sir : Try it. If it doesn't fit, its size can be changed. (It's a bracelet)
Chi Lam : *about to put it on*
Hui Sir : Let me help you.
Chi Lam : Thanks.
Hui Sir : *puts on bracelet and purposely hurts her when closing the latch* Sorry, I injured you. I'll help you wipe. (the blood)
Chi Lam : Thanks.
Hui Sir : Are you alright?
Chi Lam : Ok, thank you.
Awkward silence.
Hui Sir : I'm sorry for always hurting you.
Chi Lam : It's a small matter, it'll heal fast enough.
Hui Sir : I have something to do, I need to leave first.
Chi Lam : Nevermind, you leave first.
Hui Sir : *gets up and walks away*
Chi Lam : *chases after Hui Sir* Ah Sum! You suddenly ask me out, suddenly gave me a gift and suddenly want to leave, did something happened that you don't want me to know?
Hui Sir : Nope, I just want to apologize. Nothing else. I'm in a hurry, I'll leave first.
Chi Lam : Ah Sum. In one week time, I'll be off to Germany. I won't come back for a year.
Hui Sir : Then remember to live a good life. Even if something happens, you must bravely face it.



It's so clear that Hui Sir loves Chi Lam. He's just feeling guilty using her to get her DNA to prove that her dad's involve in Tong Sai Ping's kidnap. Hui Sir went to see Poon Sir to hand over the DNA.

Chi Lam didn't tell that she got injured because of Hui Sir. Her dad wants her to see a doctor to check the wound but she wants to go back to her old house to choose some photos to be brought with her oversea.

The two PI were outside of Shawn's house, trying to hack into the internet that Hui Sir is using. They succeeded. They reported to Kiu Kong San that he was surfing the internet and was reading about kidnapping cases. And it was Tong Sai Ping's kidnap case. Kiu Kong San kinda figured out that Hui Sir caused Chi Lam's injury. He called his daughter and she told him what really happened.

Kiu Kong San then called his assisstant to arrange a speedboat for him. Most likely he wants to run away. He called his younger brother that Hui Sir might have found out what really happened 33 years ago and ask him to meet up together and escape. Shawn was outside Kiu Kong San's house when he drove away. He called Hui Sir to tell him about it. Hui Sir told him to wait for him and not do anything before he reaches. Shawn told him that Kiu Kong San is heading to Shek O where there's a private pier.

Kiu Kong Ho was drunk and his car bumped into another car. While he has settled things with the other driver, a police came and found out he was drunk but Kiu Kong Ho said he has something else to do and promised he would go to the police station later. But due to his leg's condition, he couldn't run far and the policeman caught up with him.

Poon Sir called Hui Sir to tell about the DNA results and it was proven that one of the blood matches Kiu Chi Lam's and shows that the two has father-daughter relationship. Hui Sir told Poon Sir that Kiu Kong San might running away.

When Kiu Kong San reached the pier and was about to leave his car, Shawn confronted him. Shawn punched him and pushed him to the ground, intending to stab him. Just when he was about to stab, Hui Sir came and jumped off his bike to stop Shawn. Didn't Hui Sir asked Shawn not to do anything? Shawn must be high on drugs!

Kiu Kong San tried to bribe Hui Sir to release even though he knows that Hui Sir isn't the type to take bribes. Kiu Kong San finally gave in. He told Hui Sir that when he is in jail, he wants Hui Sir to take care of Chi Lam. Shawn suddenly wanted to knock Kiu Kong San to death. 



I know a lot of people critisize about this scene, saying how can Hui Sir still ride a bike when he's badly injured and why don't they send him to the hospital right away. I think I can answer that. It was Hui Sir decision to leave the place without any medical assisstant. So, given that impact, his rib cage will have broke and pierced into his hearts and lungs. Maybe he knows he won't leave long, so he wants to go and meet Chi Lam for the last time. And why he can still ride the bike? Some things are left unexplainable but when a humans really needs to do something, there's always that hidden strength. Plus, Hui Sir had made a promise to Chi Lam that if he had a change of heart, he will go to see her with the helmet that she bought for him.

Kiu Kong San called Chi Lam and tell her to take care of herself and that Hui Sir is on his way to see her.





"Don't cry. I'll always protect you from Columba." - Hui Sir to Chi Lam

It's so sad that he died. My reaction when he was riding his bike on the way to Chi Lam was only "OH MY GOD!!!" Then when he died, I couldn't believe they ended the show like that. I just hope that Bosco Wong wil get the Best Actor this year since he did all the stunts by himself (maybe the writing scene too!) considering that this show is quite good.

Really love the duet between Linda Chung and Bosco Wong for the song 月亮代表我的心. And also all the scenes they had together at the credits.



Someone even made a fanmade alternative ending for the show. It's the ending continued with a few advertisement vid joined together.


Just started watching Ghetto Justice too! Will update y'all on that.

Witness Insecurity Finale Part 1

"Love is a brief moment for which you hold forever" - Anonymous

I only started watching this show after the first 5 episodes were shown. I heard it was good since everyone is idol-shipping the Bosco-Linda pair. This time, it's their third time being paired up together. First being in Moonlight Resonance (Bosco - Dr. Ling & Linda - Yu Sou Sum) followed by The Gem Life (Bosco - William Shek & Linda - Elise Sung).

Kiu Kong San (Paul Chun) and his younger brother Kiu Kong Ho (Ram Tseung) were suspected to be involved in the kidnapping of one of HK's tycoon Tong Sai Ping and the mastermind behind Sapura's (Joseph Lee) murder.

To be honest, the first half of the series was much better than the last half. The part where Hailey Kiu Chi Lam (Linda Chung) slowly recovers from her emotional depression and the whole WPU with the head, Hui Wai Sum aka Hui Sir aka Ah Sum (Bosco Wong). Those scenes were the most interesting. Then, there's the part where Kiu Kong San dislikes and likes Hui Sir alternatively. When Hui Sir digged too deep into the Kiu brothers and Sapura's past, that's when the show went slightly downhill.

Hui Sir almost got jailed when he accidently cross China's border. But eventually he got fired. That didn't stop him in furthering his investigation.




While walking back to his house, it was raining and coincidently Chi Lam was avoiding the rain nearby and they both met. Chi Lam knew that Hui Sir got fired and asked him to stop investigating whatever he's on but he insisted.


Chi Lam : Ah Sum! Listen to me. Don't step deeper into the case, I don't want anything to happen to you.
Hui Sir : What can happen to me? Your dad caused me my job, he still wants to take my life?
Chi Lam : Do you mean that my dad made you lose your job?
Hui Sir : Besides him, who else doesn't want me to investigate Sapura's case?
Chi Lam : Believe me, my dad said  it himself that he wasn't involved in this case. Furthermore, you investigated and couldn't find any evidence.
Hui Sir : Of course there's no eveidene or not, how can he be sitting so comfortably?

Chi Lam : Why do you keep on insisting that my dad is the mastermind?
Hui Sir : Because this is the fact! No matter what, I'll investigate properly.

Chi Lam : I have one more problem to ask you. Is it that you can't forget your ex-girlfriend that you can't be with me? Is it true or false? My dad said that you wanted to be the rich son-in-law that's why you wanted to be with me. You used this excuse (still can't forget ex-girlfriend) so that I'll fell touched by it to give a path for yourself. Can you tell me what my dad said is true?
Hui Sir : *smirks* It's false that I can't forget my ex-girlfriend. But, what your dad said isn't the truth either.

Chi Lam : Then tell me, Why won't you be with me?
Hui Sir : Cause I don't agree with your dad's ways.

Chi Lam : Why must you go against my dad? You always tell me not to trust my dad's words but the one telling lies is you!
Hui Sir : I don't want to argue with you. Our relationship is off. I want to concentrate on what I like to do. Good bye.

Later on, Chi Lam went to the church cause she was so confused in who's telling the truth and who's telling lies. In the end, she went to see her psychiatrist, Kelly (Queenie Chu) that she wants to leave HK. So, Kelly suggested that she goes to Germany to study music since Chi Lam said that last time. On the other hand, Kiu Kong Ho tried to be in Jo Jo's (Cilla Kung) good books but failed as she believes that the Kiu brothers are the ones who caused Brother's (Ronald Law) death and made Hui Sir lost his job.

Kiu Kong San agreed in sending Chi Lam to study music overseas so that she can foret Hui Sir. Suddenly, Shawn (Eric Li) came to see the Kiu brothers in a very messed up state. Clearly, he has been taking drugs. No matter how Shawn begged Kiu Kong San, he doesn't want to help Shawn anymore causing Shawn to have a vengeance against him. Then, Shawn went to see Hui Sir to plan at getting back at Kiu Kong San.

Hui Sir purposely went to see one of his subordinates when he was still in WPU. It seems that the WPU is protecting a witness (the Dr. with no license) in Sapura's case and Hui Sir wants to see that Dr. but according to WPU's procedures, they are not allowed to disclose the witness' location. Hui Sir insisted to know the Dr.'s location but hs subordinate warned him that if Hui Sir keep on asking, he has to report this matter to the superior. Later, he had dinner with all his subordinates asking about their condition.

Kiu Kong San got news that Hui Sir is still onto Sapura's case. To get Hui Sir off the case, Kiu Kong San had to ask help from the gangsters to give him a warning. Fuadi, Sapura's son, and Hui Sir meet up. Fuadi wants Hui Sir to find out the truth behind Sapura's case. Fuadi even hired a private investigator to help Hui Sir.

Kiu Kong San : There's so many missing people in HK, him as an additional won't be weird.




Thank God two policemen came in time or not Hui Sir will be injured heavily.



This small gesture by Poon Sir (Savio Tsang) is so cute!

Hui Sir : It's a smal matter, it won't kill me.
Poon Sir : Do you know who did this?
Hui Sir : Of course, but there's no evidence.
Poon Sir : There's a possibility to arrest those gangsters.
Hui Sir : Even if they are arrested, their mouth will be shut by money which is enough to buy a house.
Poon Sir : What the police can do is limited.
Hui Sir : Kiu Kong San has so much money to spend, but I think the more he tries to cover up, the closer I am to the truth.
Poon Sir : Ah Sum, I've got news that the four big gang have received orders to kill you.
Hui Sir : See first.
Poon Sir : You were a police, you do know that the police can't protect you 24 hours. We can only order more police to round your place often. Can you think of something that can secure your safety?
Hui Sir : Are you hinting to me that I should leave HK?
Poon Sir : Given to others, that's what they'll think.
Hui Sir : But during this period, I won't leave. I'm just an orphan, my life isn't worth much. No big deal.

True to what Poon Sir said, there were three gangsters following Hui Sir. Hui Sir knew he was being followed. Luckily, he bumped into two policemen and those three retreated. On the way back to his house, he noticed a suspicious van. And just as he was about to enter the lobby to his house, he saw two suspicious guys in there and left. Those in the van saw him left and came out. Hui Sir walked quickly. In just a nick of time, Shawn drove by and pick up Hui Sir. Shawn brought Hui Sir to his old house

Kiu Chi Lam and Kelly were shopping before their trip. When she reached home, the director of the music studio that her dad owns came to tell her that the people from the music school she's applying to would be coming to HK to interview students. Chi Lam jumps at the chance. Then, she has to decide what song to play for the panel of interviewers. I thought she would play the theme song of this show since it is one of the music pieces in her expertise. Kelly tells Chi Lam's dad that her overall calm appearence doesn't mean that she's let go of things between her and Hui Sir.

Ok! Interview time! Guess what music Chi Lam chose! It's 月亮代表我的心 which is an old song sang by Teresa Teng. The song title literally means "The Moon Represents My Heart". The panel of interviewers at first found the song to be peculiar but grew to like it. While she was playing it, she was reminiscing about how she first met Hui Sir to the time she spent with him. This song reminded her of him because of the time Hui Sir sang this song badly.


After she finished playing, she quickly ran out of the interview room, too overwhelmed by her feelings.

That's all for part 1. Will continue next time for part 2. This show is too good that I have to write even some minor scenes in!

Thoughts on Gloves Come Off

I actually thought that this series was quite promising after watching the first few episodes. It got exciting went it reached halfway through. But when Don got Alzheimer, "Why?!! TVB, you're doing it all wrong!" She can't make new memories, only remembers the old ones. If you have to be so cruel, at least make her forget her past with Sap Yat and let her make new memories with Sap Yat. Let Sap Yat pursue her all over again! Even though that is cliche, I don't mind that ending. It's better than this rushed ending.

And I really wanted to see Ah Ting participating in Muay Thai competitions as how they did with Buddy. Well, I hope Bo Bo's death would tell the HK government that their alleys aren't safe! They should do something with those metal pipes!

I think I partly get the message within Sap Yat's story he told to Don in the ending. Although it should be a head with two faces not two heads, but here it goes. My interpretation might not be accurate. What Sap Yat really wanted to tell is, even though when two people separates (in their case, one party forgets as in Don getting Alzheimer), they will have that special feeling when they meet again (given they were in love with each other before which is a YES for Sap Yat and Don) no matter where or when they will meet each other. Both of them will somehow be best of friends. I can't say lovers because Don will forget.

Overall, I think it deserves a 6-7 out of 10.

What I do like is the English songs choice for this show!



Oasis - Don't Look Back In Anger


This song really suit some scenes in the series! The song got stuck in my head for quite a few days!



The Brothers Four - Try To Remember


This song is soothing to the ears. Simple yet meaningful. Love it to bits!

As for the theme song sang by none other than Kevin Cheng, it was quite weird at first but after listening to it for 25 episodes, the song isn't that bad! I do hope if Kevin does another TVB series, please have hair on his head! He looks like a gangster with that shaved head!

I actually hoped that TVB does an alternative ending for this series, something happy for Sap Yat and Don. But, even if they don't, I hope they make a 2nd Gloves Come Off series. This time, don't do a sequel, instead do a prequel.

What the prequel must have:

a) How Muay Thai chose Sap Yat
b) How Sap Yat and his first wife (played by Kate Tsui) met
c) All Sap Yat's training to become the boxing king
d) All Sap Yat's Muay Thai competition
e) Sap Yat entering jail after accidentally killing Som Chai's father
f) The tragic death of Sap Yat's wife

Any other necessary plot points to make the prequel a prequel to the current Gloves Come Off series. Come to think of it, I find the sales presentation clip for Gloves Come Off to be more interesting than the actual series.

Gloves Come Off Finale

Hey everyone! Sorry for being missing for quite awhile from my blog. Never had the chance to write synopsis for other TVB series finale! I read somewhere that the finale of Gloves Come Off has been leaked hours before its premiere which is around this morning. I was quite shocked! Here's the screencaps of the finale.




I didn't really like Tong Sap Yat (Kevin Cheng) and Don aka Miss Chai (Selena Li) ending. She has Alzheimer, got married with Sap Yat and just left. How cruel is that? See the last row of screencaps on the 2nd picture? I really pity Sap Yat and quite mad at him. Why didn't he muster his courage and try to refresh her memory? Or maybe, he wants to pursue her all over again like something out of the movie The Notebook or The Vow.

Sai Cheung (Power Chan) finally turns himself in to the police. Vicky (Katy Kung) starts a new life after waking up from a coma. Ah Ting (Nancy Wu) and Ah Lik (Otto Chan) went on to be successful Muay Thai boxers.

Last but not least, Buddy aka Pat Ka Sing (Raymond Wong). His family's taufu business expanded. He became the head at Tang Lung Muay Thai Gym taking over from his father-in-law. And his daughter, Yung Yung is so adorable. Love her to bits!

So, what's your opinion on the finale? I really hope that they will make an alternative ending like what they did with Lives of Omission. That's all for now!

Nandito Ako Finale

I guess my spoilers are quite accurate!!

Luckily they made it to the hospital in time.


Holly dies. Before she did, she wants Josh to promise to her that he will be there for Anya forever. Holly also tells Anya to be with Josh.


"Promise me, you'll be there for Anya forever." -Holly


Both Josh and Anya cried after hearing to Holly's advice.


One last hug!!

This was a touching scene!! When they were hugging her, that's when she passed away. Sad moment for everyone!! Her hand just drop, motionless. Back to God!


Margaret crying. Josh and Anya hug each other when Holly pass away.


Anya cries. Josh comforting Anya.

Oh my Josh!! This scene is worth crying over. Holly is indeed a sweet friend. She knows Josh doesn't belong to her. Josh getting back Anya for good, that's a wish come true!





"The wind that blows the dove, is the wind that blows my love."


Holly spreading the love!! Josh and Anya at the hotel where the fire took place 15 years ago.


The kite scene.


One last Jonya moment.

How did you find the ending?! I love it to bits!!!! Did y'all stay on until the credits end? They showed the bloopers. And this last scene really suits for the ending!


The Last Wave Of Josh Bradley.

Wakas! The end!!

Y'all must be wondering, "What happen to Uncle Stevil?". Like they say, wait another 2 more years and you'll find out! Hint, hint!! A sequel maybe?!!XD


This vid came out too!! All the rice food for David. That's Merienda for the Pinoys!! Enjoy!!






Will miss seeing Nandito Ako on TV5 schedule!!

Nandito Ako Finale Spoilers

Ok, this post might contain spoilers. So, if you hate spoilers, please leave immediately!!

As those of you who are following the mini-series, Nandito Ako, y'all know that tomorrow is the finale. And there's already some who are guessing the ending.
 
 
Here's one of the guess :

Holly will die. Remember that she talked about kites? She wants Josh to fly a kite when she goes away forever. So, that wild guess quite explain this picture below. And that Nandito Ako is her song and story.




But, the funny thing is, Anya and Josh looks so happy in this picture!! And the watch strap that they have, haven't been brought together!! I can't wait till they fix it back together since Anya found out about it from Aladdin and Josh will finally find out about it from Pablito!

Let me guess, Holly dies. Before she will, she tells Josh to go back with Anya because she knows that they love each other a lot! Josh at first doesn't want to but because Holly keeps persuading and pushing him and Josh doesn't want to see Holly in so much pain, he will finally go after Anya.

I think Holly also told Anya to be with Josh on a separate occasion. Maybe she told them both together. Either one. And she tells them that when she dies, she wants them to fly the kite on her behalf. So, that explains the song, Forevermore.

"The wind that blows the dove, is the wind that blows my love."

I guess it's a song from Holly to both Anya and Josh. She wants to wish them well. Holly can be selfish at times, but I guess she will be good towards the end.

I guess Josh is happy being with Anya. Now, Anya doesn't have to worry hurting other people's feeling. It takes a sacrifice to get what one wants! So true!

So, whatever the ending is tomorrow, I hope it's a good ending. Well, if my guess isn't really accurate, don't come complaining!! It's just a guess!! And if it's accurate, it is just my plain luck for guessing it correctly.

Almost forgot!! The #DA2014 fanvid is coming out tomorrow too!! Can't wait.

So, at the mean time, I'll be emo-ing knowing that Holly might die. Better prepare my Build-A-Bear, Seth, and a box of tissues for tomorrow's finale!! Last episode of Nandito Ako! Can't believe it's ending so fast! A month has passed!

And another two more week, David Archuleta will be leaving for his mission. All of us Archies have to brace ourselves when that happens!!

Adios!!
