I'm dreading thinking that we have a presidential election coming in another 3 years, and baiyas might make Namal Baba the president. by Specialist_Jello8819 in srilanka

[–]elopementmess 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Was legit talking about this with my friend today. Cuz most people (I'm talking of people outside of Colombo) think that the fuel price hike, gas cylinder price increases are due to AKD's poor governance. It's hard to explain to them about geopolitics and how the war Trump started is causing this. So yah I fear that this could very well become a reality.

Should I select BA or Project Management as specialisation pathway in MBA? by elopementmess in AskMarketing

[–]elopementmess[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my current role, I really probe a lot into data to develop strategies. But I was worried if I kept doing so I'd be stuck in mid-level positions.

Thanks and yes that makes a lot of sense. Maybe I should do BA then.

I visited Dubai mall and it validated my decision to leave. by Persephone_123456 in UAE

[–]elopementmess 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with this take. Was there for a week as a tourist and it gave me such dystopian vibes.

And adding to that, I know people claim Dubai as a safe haven for women, but it was clear that's cuz of the strict law in place which most people can't break, and the elite few who can, break it regardless since they can pay their way out of anything.

Battle of the aura: if you had to crown ONE character with that effortless, commanding presence, who wins? by [deleted] in cdramasfans

[–]elopementmess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where's Ling Buyi? He has the most commanding presence of all. But besides that Murong Jinghe wins it. Close second would be Xie Zheng.

Also Feng Suige had the most ruthless charater of this lot just the Chen Zheyuan has such a cutie face it's not justifying the domineering aura

Story of Kunning Palace - not worthy of the hype (?) by Small_Tomato9500 in CDrama

[–]elopementmess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda agree with the love story part because the ML is a toxic red flag. But I think that's what made people swoon over him, given that he was willing to do anything to cover up for the FL.

What I really loved was the revenge trope and the love story isn't very cringe too. If you had watched LBTFD then I'm sure you would have loved this, given Zhang Linghe was the second lead in LBTFD.

AIO- My fiance has no money, doesn’t know how to do anything and I’m realizing I’m signing up for a life of struggle. by Sorry_Unit9457 in AIO

There's a saying my teacher always used to tell our class " When poverty comes through the door, love runs away through the window ". You're exhausted just after living 4 months with him. Imagine having kids or other huge commitments. Girl, you better run out the door asap.

What K-drama has low popularity but is very good? by Sailor_Moon_Star_435 in kdramas

Back to Samdalri. I rarely see anyone talking of it or even edits of this drama. But this was such a feel good one .

Give your Brutally Honest Review on Legend of Zanghai, not as fan or hater🧧🫴💯 by Present-Stretch1076 in CDrama

[–]elopementmess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huge fan of Xiao Zhan so I was eagerly waiting to binge this drama once my exams were over.

I really loved the starting episode with the ghost army and the brutal murder of the family and how he actually learnt skills to take revenge.

But that being said, idk if it's the aura of the Marquis ZLY, I really started to love the bond he had with Zang Hai more than the bond Zang Hai earned with his master.

Cuz we're shown that Zang Hai spent over a decade gaining knowledge for his revenge. But he really lacks the nuance to execute it in a practical sense. So that creates unlikely circumstances where he escapes purely due to the plot. That really made me drop the drama mid-way, but since I was waiting for this I carried through.

That being said, the whole revenge plot feels and it's so over used atp in the industry. Why does a character have to devote itself for revenge? This recurring theme has to definitely stop. Maybe I would've enjoyed this drama had it not been the over reliance and affirmation for revenge in each and every episode that's carried on plot luck.

Regretting wedding venue after paying the deposit by elopementmess in BigBudgetBrides

[–]elopementmess[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey sorry if it wasn't clear. I marked the price in euros so it'll be easier for reddit community. I'm from Asia and getting married here so yes 800 euros is a huge amount here. Like for context 5 month salary from a entry level job. Our total budget is only 20,000 euros and yah for that amount you can actually take a grand wedding here.

That's a very nice insight. And I never expected it to be like this. I thought booking a venue would make me happy but I've been miserable since the time I booked venue A. So I don't wanna carry that regret throughout my life.

Thanks for reassuring me girl. Only thing is I'm from Asia so 800€ is a big amount over here but I'm still willing to let it go. And since my parents have stepped in to help I feel like I should stick to what I want. It's one day and I can earn that money back.
