Most TV series I watch are generally police procedural. The Mentalist, Graceland, White Collar, Death in Paradise, Miss Fisher Mysteries, Haven, Grimm, and the list goes on. Currently, I am hooked into watching Motive, Other than police procedural, I'm also into legal drama, not heavy one though. Would love to watch Law and Order but I kinda think it's heavy albeit fun to watch. I watched Eli Stone and Drop Dead Diva. I know it sounds cheesy but, Drop Dead Diva is quite accurate when it comes to law. Maybe that stemmed from my love towards watching Legally Blond or maybe I'm just an archetypal Libra.
Back to reality show, I can't help but to watch ANTM. I would love to watch makeover shows but let's face it, it hard to get those shows here, those are not free to air, and not in DVD format (I prefer DVD because I can watch them at my own time). Well, to compensate, there's always This Old House in YouTube.
ANTM for me is just a light reality show compared to the Kardashian whom I wish I could just throw them into the Pacific, maybe I just envied them. I watch ANTM maybe because of my interest in fashion just like watching This Old House because I'm interested in architecture.
Damn I talk a lot. Back to the question why I watch reality TV. Well, it's fun to watch people making stupid things. They are funny. Sometimes, it's full of drama. 2 girls fighting. And what I like most is the chopping board. ........ you're still in the running to become the next top model.
The chopping board, makes me think that live still goes on even after being eliminated. Sometimes, when I'm in deep shit, I'll imagine myself on the chopping board. And most times, I would imagine that my life is just a reality show.
Once, we're posted to a town by the river to complete our Public Health posting. Since it's a 3 months posting accommodation are provided. 11 guys in a house. It's stressful at times to live with 10 other guys in a 4 bedroom house. Whose turn to shower to whose turn to do the cleaning. Watching a lot of ANTM tells me to stay out from any argument, keep your place clean and nobody would alienate you. And I am always the Switzerland among the 10 UN nation. Minding my own business, except, I was elected to lead the group in some aspects. So it's partial Switzerland then. Some would disagree with my decisions, so there was some friction. Again in ANTM, when you're leading, just keep cool, choose wisely and just agree to disagree.
Another thing, expect some backstabbing. So, when I'm leading, I imagine myself as Alexandria Everett in cycle 16. If I'm not, Alexandria in cycle 17. If you follow ANTM, you would notice the difference between Alexandria in the 16th cycle and the all-star cycle. In the 16th cycle, she seems bitchy. Yeah seems, because the others are jealous of her and starts to call her names, yeah that's you Brittani. In the all-star cycle, she's sweeter. Nonetheless, I vouch for Lexi in both cycles.
Sometimes, I can be as cranky as Molly in cycle 16. She minds her own business though and keep to herself most of the time, so less friction although her nickname was Angry Molly. When my colleague alienate me because of my weirdness I would imagine myself as the handsome Chris H (cycle 20) and the one alienate me the most as Marvin, the bigmouth. Yeah, I would prefer to be Chris H as he is always being misunderstood just like me. We talk a lot but we still harbour deep feeling. We just don't show our feeling.
Lately, I watch Genuine Ken on YouTube. Well I like Chris Holscher more than the others. He don't really call the others names and shy. Aren't shy men cute? (And I feel like castrating myself for making this statement). And why I like guys named Chris with surname starts with H? Just a coincidence maybe. or maybe both are my age, so we 80's babies should stick together.
And no, I don't only watch girly reality show, I watch Survivors and Amazing Race too. I would watch if it's on the telly. Or any house makeover.
(p/s Pardon me for the delay on posting my cookie baking experience, I need a second opinion. My chocolate cookie taste okay, but I need my brother's opinion. To me, it's not as chewy as Famous Amos, but still better (or the same) than regular chocolate cookies)
