Voyage à L'ouest
Monday, 23 March 2009
Today was another laughing day for me. The episode 7 for My Queen. Now, Wu Shuang is eager to look for a partner in order to attend for her high school reunion party. So she went for dating services to look for partner online. Naturally, all the partners were rejected by her high expectations. However one day a guy left a message saying that would want to meet her. So she went for her date. Here is a portion that made me laughed. Especially the part where they interludes into monk and demon. They even used Mr. Tang as the name, to match with 'Tang Shen Zhang', the monk in Journey to the West.
Mr. Tang: This rose is grown using my own methods. Truthfully when I saw your profile in the Lai 100 Dian dating service. I was captured by your beauty. This rose successfully bloomed two hours before we met. Therefore Miss Shan, this rose represents my sincere and burning heart. Please accept it.
Ms. Shan: Thank you. You're welcome. -Drops the rose on the floor-
Mr. Tang: Miss Shan, there's a principle I want you to understand. The rose is a keepsake bestowed on us by God to shape Love. And not some litter. Even though it's a keepsake. If it was dropped on the footpath, it will become litter, won't it? And also, roses are prickly. If not careful, children may get pricked. Or a wild cat or dog. Isn't that pitiful? Even if it's thrown away in a place where similar flowers and grass are, It's thorns can still pierce plants.
Ms. Shan: -Getting sleepier and bored-
Mr. Tang: Plants also have feelings and sensation. You should know that they also hurt. When roses pierce flowers, it's as if "Eager to hurt one's own spieces" (In mandarin, 'ben shi tong gen shen, xiang jian he tai ji'). Don't you understand this principle?
-Interlude into a scene where Mr. Han talks like a monk, Ms. Shan is a demon-
Mr. Tang (Monk): Such an exceptional female like yourself. White (white) collared worker, the leading force (the backbone). The White Bone Demon. (In Journey to the West story, there is a demon called 'bai gu jin. Which literally means White Bone Demon). But a nothing when it comes to love, a patch of white.
Ms. Shan: Sad. Is it because I'm the white bone demon, that I have been living alone for 33 years? Master. Please give me advice. Amithaba.
Moral: You shouldn't be talking so much during your first date. The way of speech shouldn't be like chanting for sutra.
Interestingly, I have found out that Cheryl Yang who acted as Wu Shuang has the same birthdate as Germaine. I hope that your life wouldn't end up like her, I guess? Check out 'My Queen' blogsphere,
