Meteor Garden VS. Bull Fighting

For some unknown reason, I am feeling very solemn today. Maybe because I went to class today and realized that everyone knows everyone except me, or because I am still not use to the fact that I have to go to class without Michelle. I don't know and I guess only time will tell.

Came back from class today and watched bull fighting again. I just finished episode 6 and I found some similarities between this series and Meteor Garden. It's like somehow the script writers ran out of ideas and decided to recycle them. but its still quite nice although at certain points I think that Meteor Garden is better. That is most probably because Meteor Garden was the one who introduced the whole Taiwanese series addict thing to me.

Like I said, there's many similarities and among them are:

1) The male lead characters in both series are rich (although in one point in bullfighting he's at the verge of bankrupt)
2) Both male lead characters has very very very annoying parents
3) There's always a super nice guy (where he would like the girl from afar) which to the point seems unbelievable (at least to me) in the show (Lee Wei in bullfighting and Vic in Meteor Garden)
4) There's the scene where the guy get beaten up because of the girl.
5) And the girl will be injured in the process of protecting the guy in that very scene where he gets beaten up.
6) Then there's the hot bath location again.
7) Girl treating the wounds on the guy's body.
8) Both gals have very cute mom (though in Meteor Garden there are times that you just want to strangle the mother)
9) ALL the male characters in the show just knows how to fight.
10) Lead male characters rules the school and the girls is not afraid of them.

So yes, sometimes watching Bull Fighting reminds me a lot of Meteor Garden and although some of the characteristics of the characters, scenes and at certain parts the storyline are the same, there is just a distinctive differences that I can't pinpoint. Maybe it's because of the actors, I don't know. But somehow, after watching these addictive Taiwanese Series let it be 'It started with a Kiss', 'Snow Angel', 'Meteor Garden', 'Devil Beside You', 'Why Why Love' or 'Bull Fighting' just makes me wanna write my very own stories. It starts giving me ideas that will somehow get stuck in my head until I toy with it, which can be very annoying. Oh Well......
