My cousin called me up last night to inform me that her daughter is looking for a good medical assisting school because she is interested in pursuing education in the field of allied health.  Then our conversation went to the latest TVB drama which she is watching now.  My cousin said she is now watching Beauty Knows No Pain.  I am very looking forward to watching this 20-episode TVB drama.  Beauty Knows No Pain replaces When Lane Merge.  It stars some of my favourite actresses such as Michelle Yim, Maggie Cheung and Joyce Tang Lai Ming.  Oh, the actors are Joe Ma Tak Chung and Dominic Lam Ka Wah.   It was during the filming of Beauty Knows No Pain that Michelle’s boyfriend, Wan Chi Keung passed away from cancer.  Tragic.

Synopsis

WONG HOI KING (Michelle Yim) is successful in both career and love life. However, she accidentally discovers that her husband CHIN KWONG LUNG (Dominic Lam) is committing adultery. In order to maintain the relationship, KING is willing to take the risk of getting pregnant despite her high age. Pregnancy has imposed great pressure on her daily life as well as her career. Her aggressive subordinate SA YUEN KEI (Maggie Cheung) therefore seizes the chance to take up her duties. KEI is a bold and decisive person at work but she is caught in a quadrangular relationship by falling in love with the married man KO CHI LIK (Joe Ma).

Discouraged by the relationship failures of her bosses, secretary YU MAN YAU (Joyce Tang) further loses her confidence. YAU always has a sense of inferiority because of her “outstanding” body shape. Encouraged by her colleague CHI NAM (Power Chan), YAU decides to boost her self-esteem by getting plastic surgery. She immediately becomes the sexiest goddess on the Internet and the hottest brand spokesperson in town. After getting famous and rich, YAU suddenly realizes that this is not what she really wants…

Another new drama is here.  Yay!  SomeDay replaces O.L. Supreme and it is a modern-day drama.  I can’t wait to watch it online again.  My favourite actors and actresses are in this drama.  I love Louise Lee, Teresa Mo and Wayne Lai.  Someday also stars Lau Dan, Wong He and I heard that the cast will be similar to the show Off Pedder.  This is a 120 episode drama series and the story revolves around the lives of Louise Lee, Wayne Lai and Teresa Mo.   I will definitely be spending a lot of time in front of my laptop now 😉

I was browsing www.prenatalvitamins.org when my friend called and told me that she just watch Sex And The City 2 online.  Arrgghhh…I so hate her!  I haven’t watched it yet though this movie was released last week.  Was supposed to get together with a few friends and watch it but some of us were busy.  I loved Part 1 and and I can’t wait to watch Part 2.  I want to see all those fabulous clothes and shoes on the girls.  I also want to know how is married life for Carrie and Mr. Big.  Who is this Aidan?  What about you? Have you watched the Fab Four?  If my friends can’t make it, I’m going to watch Sex And The City 2 all by myself, with some popcorns 😉

A Fistful of Stances is a 25-episode pre-modern drama which I am very looking forward to watching online.  From the title, you would know that this drama is all about martial arts.  What attracted me to want to watch it is the cast.  Kevin Cheng is one of my favorite actors.  So is Kenneth Ma.  I like Dominic Lam too and I am glad that this drama has a very line-up of actors and actresses.   The female casts are Selina Li, Natalie Tong, Yuen Qiu, Tavia Yeung and more.  I can’t wait to get started on this drama.  Have you watched it?

Synopsis:
Au Yeung Wai-Lan is the owner of a martial arts school. She was recently reunited with her eldest son, Koo Yu Cheung, after years of separation.

Upon Yu Cheung’s return home, he was shocked to learn that his younger brother, Koo Yu Tong, is suffering from a critical illness. What is more shocking for Yu Cheung was that their father was murdered by Wing Tak, the owner of a medicinal company as well as the bitter rival of the Koo family.

Yu Cheung never liked kung-fu but has always shown potential for the arts. His potential in kung-fu shine even brighter when he takes on Wing Man Kwan, Wing Tak’s son.

Wai-Lan places all her hopes on Yu Cheung to take on the Wing family. She even taught Yu Cheung a special set of kung-fu skills that was created by the Koo family. Wai-Lan even registers Yu Cheung for the Guangdong Boxing Championship, and as fate would have it, Yu Cheung’s opponent at the tournament happens to be Man-Kwan!

Yu Cheung achieved tremendous success in martial arts but his success also makes him lose his bearings. He is caught in a love triangle with Ying Ngan Ming (Wai-Lan’s apprentice) and Chow Mui Mui, his dream girl. Yu Cheung’s confusion in love as well as his exhaustion with kung-fu caused him to fall in the final tournament.

Will Yu Cheung sort out his problems in time to save the Koo family?

The TVB 42nd Anniversary Awards Presentation was held last night.  I am so happy that my favorite actor, Wayne Lai has won the Best Actor award for his portrayal as “Chai Gau” in the drama Rosy Business.  Sheren Tang took home the Best Actress award last night and Rosy Business is the Best Series.  Yay!!!  Congratulations to all the winners.  Have you watched this show yet?  If you haven’t, hurry and go watch it.  I just watched it online just a while ago.  All the actors and actresses were dressed to the nines.  The ladies were clad in beautiful gowns and the men wore smart tuxedos.  Some were more flamboyant like Moses and Ron Ng. I think they would look better in tuxedo vest. Here are some photos of the Red Carpet.
