Till the End of the Moon (2023)
Original title: Chang Yue Jin Ming
TV Series | 53m

An immortal, Li Susu is destined to time-travel 500 years back to prevent the death of a hostage prince to stop his transformation into the Devil god, who destroys four continents and three realms. Will secrets of time and fate deter her?

I stumbled upon this series on Netflix, and the ML on the movie poster immediately drew me in. However, the Netflix poster is different from the one on IMDB (left pic). From the very first episode, I was hooked and couldn’t resist binge-watching the subsequent episodes. I became so absorbed that I even connected ML to a character in a game I’m currently addicted to—though they don’t look similar, they definitely share a similar vibe.

I was curious if ML (Luo Yunxi) usually has this physique, as he seemed quite slim. Maybe the story called for him to be skinny; at times, his facial shots resembled a dragon’s, especially since he also plays the Ming Ye character. Initially, I thought this might be a reincarnation, but after a quick search on Reddit, I learned that Tantai Jin is not the reincarnation of Ming Ye (East Sea Dragon/God of War). Anway, I love his expressive eyes, and his aura is incredibly inviting.

I managed to finish all 40 episodes in just four days! It was a rollercoaster of emotions. By the time I reached the final episode, I was so invested that I felt like I was hyperventilating—I tend to get that way with certain shows or movies. There are only a few that have had such an effect on me, and I still haven’t finished those or can’t bring myself to watch the same movie again.

Now that I’ve completed the final episode, I’m not sure I can find another series or movie that can top this one. I started exploring ML's discography and am eager to check out his other projects, but I think this one will stay with me for a while.

We've tried several brands, and Health Fusion stands out as the best so far.

Finding Happiness with SB19

0 comments | Posted by PurpleJein on Saturday, September 07, 2024


I just watched this now because I’ve been so busy, and SB19 never fails to lift my spirits. Their Show Break videos are especially uplifting.

I discovered them last year during a tough time when I was feeling really down. Watching their vlogs allowed me to get to know them better, and I admired them not just for their talents but also for their personalities.

Their songs might seem a bit challenging to understand at first due to their unique style, yet once you get into them, they become deeply relatable. Their emo tracks make you feel heard and validated during moments when you feel misunderstood, and they motivate you to improve, unlike other songs that might leave you feeling drown in your sadness.

Beyond being my source of happiness, they’ve also encouraged me to strive for personal growth and to appreciate myself more. That’s why I enrolled in PUP's Open University to pursue my college degree, hoping to complete it this time while balancing work and family life.

Pagtatag! The Documentary

Pagtatag! The Documentary (2024)
PG | 1h 13m

An eye-opener not only being an artists but more on in real life journey. People tend to forget the behind the scenes in everything. They easily judge people on how they see them or portray them in public.

As an A'tin from the Gento era, I was excited to watch "Pagtatag! The Documentary," especially since I brought my partner along to share my enthusiasm for this PPop group. I wanted him to understand why I’m so into them. My last major boy band loves were Boyzone and Westlife, and the last OPM bands I followed closely were Parokya ni Edgar and Eraserheads.

I chose to watch it at Trinoma because they offered tickets at a lower price compared to other malls, plus they included a photocard and free popcorn with each ticket. I was curious about the lower price and free popcorn and later discovered it might be because the restrooms are outside the cinema. If you need to use the restroom during the movie, you might miss 5 minutes or more, especially if there’s a long line.

As for the documentary, it felt a bit lacking. At just over an hour long, it seemed more like a behind-the-scenes look at their concert tour rather than a comprehensive documentary. There were mentions of how foreign fans connect with their music, and I was hoping to see clips of them singing along and getting emotional over SB19’s Filipino tracks. I remember seeing such scenes in their reels or other vlogs, but they weren’t included here. I’m not sure if I missed them or if they weren’t shown for privacy reasons.

Additionally, there was a segment where the group's sound and music track, along with the lights, went off during an event, yet they continued performing. It wasn’t clear whether this was due to technical issues or if it was intentional, especially since the next segment showed their director instructing not to turn off the mics. Including this bit felt unnecessary since the reason wasn’t clarified—unless I missed it.

Overall, the documentary had the potential to attract more casual fans if it had provided a deeper, more engaging look into the group while capturing the essence of the Pagtatag Era.

Prior to this, we were at Quantum Skyview to pick up the merchandise I bought online for the documentary film. This is also where the PAGTATAG! THE DOCUMENTARY FAN FEST is being held.

We arrived just in time for a surprise visit from JahStell. Although there were only a few fans present, we couldn't get close to the stage or see them clearly since it wasn't elevated enough. Fortunately, my phone’s zoom feature helped us get a clearer view.
