One Big Pile of Medicines and Magazines

I have been sick. Check out the crazy big pile of meds the doc gave me for my stomach ailments and a cream for my skin! This does not include the flu meds and cough meds. Woozy just looking at them. I don't think I'll eat them all! << (me bad patient) 008copy

While sick at home, I watch Boys Before Flowers (Korean k-drama version of Hana Yori Dango, about the exploits of 4 "flower boys" known as the F4). I'm nuts about the show, unable to tear myself away, no matter how ridiculous the story gets sometimes. I like the actors (Lee Min Ho and Kim Bum, I'm growing to like one of the characters in the story, Ji Hoo). Guess it helps that I didn't see the other Japanese and Taiwanese versions so I can't make comparisons. 002copy I don't know why I keep buying magazines when there's a wealth of information on the net! I really can't afford the space for keeping them but I have a hard time throwing them. While at home, I keep staring at this stack I accumulated in the past few months and feel compelled to start throwing some older ones, especially the English ones which are from 08 seasons that I bought at a big discount. Normally we are told to tear out the useful stuff before throwing, but I always tear almost the entire magazine. I'm useless with that, so I think I'll just throw what I must. 003copy Lately I discovered Taiwanese magazines. They are fun, because I can actually read the Chinese, instead of just staring at the photos and guessing at the kanji in the Japanese mags. Some of them like ef, I think are translations of Japanese ones. 004copy I like this Gold-Brown look from the February issue of Choc, a mag which I think is targetted at younger girls in their late teens and early twenties. I seem unable wear these sort of colours well. Inside the latest March issue of FF, there are fashionable bags. 005copy And cute accessories! 007copy I want the Anna Sui strawberry set (bottom left corner). 006copy © Copyright.

Take care & get well soon! I read the Taiwanese ed of ef too myself ;) Did the mags give addresses of the Taiwanese stockists? I could try help you get the stuff if they're located around Taipei.
