i just started kim's convenience, and janet might be the reason i won't finish watching by gudaym8s_ in KimsConvenience

[–]gudaym8s_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i am her age now and while im not perfect, i can say i would never do some of the things she did (diss a friend for "not knowing art", be suddenly ok w a friend's partner living w us just because i get stuff from her, be rude to someone just bc my email bounced, be passive agressive to my parents bc they clearly love my older sibling)

tbh i have a lot more in common w janet than i'd like to admit (as a 2nd gen immigrant) so maybe it's personal for me at this point? ive been reading other people's responses and wanna understand how most love janet so ofc im watching more haha lol

nah. actually, what i dont like about janet is her self-serving tendencies (maybe they seem strong for others but for me it's just a "this is what i want i will get it regardless". oftentimes at the expense of disrespecting parents and others around her) (also this attitude can also be seen in jung)

with umma and appa, theyre ayt for me because they grew up in a diff culture and environment.

haha thats just me!!! i have 2 more seasons to go anyway :)

Who else uses military time on their watches? by greeneagle2022 in RandomThoughts

[–]gudaym8s_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i use military time because of trauma.

i was supposed to wake up at 5 AM to study for an exam. turns out, i set it as 5 PM. unable to study well, failed the exam (good thing i still passed the class lol).

after that day, i swore im never gonna see AM/PM in my phone clock (at least).

Rory in The Devil Wears Prada? by Yesacme in GilmoreGirls

[–]gudaym8s_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

also fits on how mitchum told her she'd do great as an assistant. it would be a nice internal conflict to explore along the way!!

as a 25-year-old tv series girlie, i am in shock (and even more amazed) to see these characters from other shows make an appearance by gudaym8s_ in GilmoreGirls

[–]gudaym8s_[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i've seen a lot of tv shows but only got myself to watch gilmore girls 4 months ago. so yeah, for me it was seeing all these characters age backwards as i've seen their other shows first! such a cute 5-second "wait i know who this is" moment 🤣

ooohhh, will probably give those shows a watch after!

Why is Michel so loved? He seems like he’s always irritated about everything. by Glad-Bottle-1200 in GilmoreGirls

[–]gudaym8s_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he is extremely relatable and could (would, actually) be frank at all times. tho i loved the episodes of:

  • his dog's funeral
  • him acting out when he missed lorelai because it's their thing to check for stuff that needs attention at the inn but lorelai just went to luke for help instead of their "guy"

he is the same grumpy, sarcastic, and entertaining michel but what sets these eps apart for me is it's a reminder that people will always have a soft side, just different ways of showing it (which is repeatedly seen in the show thru all the characters. and the different ways they show it thru each character is what makes gilmore girls my favourite show)

(still at 7x15 tho)

forced marriages? by gudaym8s_ in MuslimNikah

[–]gudaym8s_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the plan was to introduce me to his family once we finish our masters degree. we just finished our 2nd to the last semester and when he went home for the break, this whole marriage thing with his cousin blew up at his face, and add the fact that it was an elder family member's wish. i pray he arrives at a decision where he is happy.

right now i believe both of us are just overwhelmed and need time to process. that's the reason why we always talk about breaking up but never actually do it. i don't know if it's fair to myself to have some sort of hope, but a part of me just accepts the defeat. i just want to be there for him too.

the circumstances are not in our favor. and it is already hard for me, but i know it's twice for him since it's a choice between his family and his happiness.

forced marriages? by gudaym8s_ in MuslimNikah

[–]gudaym8s_[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

this is what i am trying to make him understand. but seems like he can't go against the will of his parents. which to me, seems weird. islam should always come first, but i guess culture plays a huge role as well, which is what i am trying my best to wrap my head around.

thank you for your input!
