thank you, zworykin

i am a tv addict. i watch everything that's on tv, well excpet infomercials (although i think there was a time that i did watch them. but that was when i was way younger). anyways, i have always loved watching tv. i remember when i was a kid, i would watch tv until the wee hours of the morning. and we didn't even have cable back then! i remember that i would watch this tv show Homefront on channel 2 every midnight and that's where i first saw kyle chandler, years before early edition, king kong and grey's anatomy, and crush ko na siya that early on. even now, years later, crush ko pa din siya and it really shocked me when he just burst into a pink haze on grey's anatomy! grabe, one sec he was walking away, the next minute BAM! he was gone, literally. all that was left of him was a pink fog. that must have been painful, i would imagine.

i love tv and most of my friends know this about me. they can ask me anything about tv shows and i would know it. there's no way for me to explain why i love tv but i just do. i am one of those persons that can just sit in front of the tv all day long and would not mind at all. it doesn't even matter if there's a good show on (although it would help), i can sit through a really bad show and still find something good about it. we didn't have cable for the longest time and i still watched tv all the time imagine what happened when i was introduced to the wonderful world of cable. seriously, i would put reminders on my cellphone about all the shows i had to watch because there was just too many shows to keep track of. medyo nataranta ako with all the shows i could watch. having all those channels also made it harder to channel surf eh i really liked channel surfing. kapag commercials i would always be flipping channels. minsan sa kakalipat ko ng channels i would forget or miss the show i was originally watching. las pinas cable made me realize how many good US shows i was missing. before cable, my only source of US shows was studio 23 and you know how delayed they are. pero on cable aaaahhh! natuwa ako with all the shows i could watch! LOST, House, CSI, CSI Miami, CSI NY, may CSI pa bang iba? basta there was just a lot and i loved it! tapos when i got here sa US, heaven! i could watch all the shows on time na! i am still loving the fact that i get to watch new shows that might or might not be shown sa pinas. like now, there's this new show october road which i just love. ang cute ni bryan greenberg (from Prime and one tree hill)! hehehehe.

sometimes i think maybe i'm such a tv addict to make up for the fact that i don't really have a life. i mean, i have no boyfriend. i only go out on weekends and not even always. maybe i watch tv to make up for the boredom that is my life. but whatever the reason is, i still love TV.
