Back To 1989: Episode 17 “Acceptance.”

What a roller coaster ride. My emotions went through the wringer, ya’ll. Though there were many, many tears, the whole episode represents the hopeful side of acceptance.

Back To 1989: Episode 15 “The Blame.”

Love At Seventeen: Episode 1 “Deftly Directed.”

Looks like Tdramaland is littered with leads looking for their parents. Lol. Or am I just naturally drawn to that aspect of a drama? Love At Seventeen premiered last weekend to a strong start. The first thing that stood out was the deft hands directing the scenes with a purpose to impact. Along with being …
