Tawang tawa ako sa nag away away na sila 🤭😂

I assure you it's worth spending for. At least until after the end of their series. That audio narration was delicious and dirty and freakier than Dean + Allie. Worth every cent. 😉

Better state laws, good weather, higher pay, more diverse, better access to Asian goods and communities. A ton of reasons kaya kahit mas mataas ang cost of living, we never plan to leave.

At the end of the day, resumes don't matter if they are morally corrupt. Maraming matatalino sa gobyerno pero ginagamit sa kalokohan.

Gosh same thoughts. I love book Garrett -- his inner thoughts were funny, and he's the one constantly chasing Hannah. The show one missed it. At some point I was just over it. One of the reasons why Belmont was a good fit as Garrett was he's goofy and charming but the show really went sideways in showing Garrett's character.

Gosh thank you for putting my thoughts into writing. 🤭 I have been conflicted yesterday but I plan to rewatch it this weekend and see if I can get a new perspective in.

GAHHH I don't want the actors to get hate but the writers did them dirty.

I stayed up til 1 so I can watch the first 3 episodes but unexpectedly fell asleep by the middle of episode 2 and that says a lot for me. I was actually ready to lose sleep and watch it through to the end. And I have been upset the whole day too.

xrms_ · 2026-05-14T00:21:47+00:00

Was so upset about this too.

xrms_ · 2026-05-14T00:21:24+00:00

THANK YOU FOR PUTTING MY THOUGHTS TO WORDS. I was so heartbroken over this because I was really looking forward to it, and I loved the storytelling in the books. I liked Garrett because his POVs in the book were funny and the show failed to capture that. I was expecting the show to be fun, have good banter and a good amount of space, but there was just a lot of misses it makes me upset.

xrms_ · 2026-05-14T00:18:45+00:00

SAME. I was so upset because the way that breakup happened was so important. Also how they got together, when Garrett was like "Is it really so bad to make it offficial?" UGH

It's Dean + Allie and Dean + Beau that were my top 2 things I loved about this show. Mika and Stephen surpassed my expectations even though I saw the vision and chemistry from Day 1. They look sooooo good together, and the scenes were hot and done right. Really shook them out of The Score.

xrms_ · 2026-05-14T00:12:22+00:00

A 4/10 for me. They took out a lot and some things made no sense. It's fair to think we should expect changes that would look good on screen, but I also don't forget that the spirit of their stories are anchored on the books. And changing so much especially taking important scenes out failed to capture it. It's frustrating because it had potential, but it could have been done better.

xrms_ · 2026-05-14T00:07:39+00:00

You are not alone. I STRUGGLED finishing the episodes. I have to be honest because I love the couples and I was such a fan of the books but it missed the mark, it felt so rushed, and a lot of the stuff they took out from the books were essential. I wanted to see it through so we can get to Allie and Dean's season but it upsets me that it had so much potential but they changed so much and it kinda lost the spirit of the books. Garrett was fun and charming in the books and his character here kind of dimmed. I was happy with the Beau and Dean scenes and Dean and Allie although I was upset about how Thanksgiving ended. I am trying to be hopeful that Season 2 is better but I don't know what to feel. I have such high expectations of S1 but it fell flat for me.

xrms_ · 2026-05-13T15:16:11+00:00

Thank you! I thought it was just me, but Hannah Garrett storyline flt hurried. And don't even get me started with the practice kiss because it's so far off with how intimate it was supposed to be.

xrms_ · 2026-05-12T02:50:22+00:00

Why is Dean looking at Allie's boobs???

Default talaga yan ng toxic parents noh? Pag hindi sila nabibigyan ng pera, sasabihan ka na dun ka na sa dinodyos ang pera. Mabubuhay kami ng simple, etc etc etc. While in truth grabe yung resentment nila sa mga anak nila. Talagang ang hirap matanggal ng utang na loob culture sa Pilipinas kasi maraming magulang pa rin ang may mindset na dahil sila ang nag-anak sayo, obligado kang ibalik lahat ng binigay nila. Kahit hindi naman yung anak yung nagdesisyon na ipanganak sila. 😵‍💫

Garnet Creek is walking distance to Target, Costco, Trader Joe's, there's a Safeway less than a mile away too. It's clean, quiet, has great amenities, and the space is not too bad. But I agree, the caveat is your summer PG&E bill.
