    Arrow Ok.. please share your life as Reviewer

    As many of you know, I have written the review for "Friends"
    And ever since that, the disaster happened.
    I have received massive spam type mails regarding WON BIN.
    What they say is "I LOVE YOU WON BIN"
    Fine... sure.. I like Won Bin too... but again, I AM NOT WONBIN!!

    I am still getting e-mails from some weird people out there asking me if I know them in person.. or am i won bin...arrrggg....

    I AM NOTHING TO DO WITH HIM, AND I DON"T KNOW HIM!

    Also... please don't ask me if I know their e-mail addresses.. I don't and even though I have their E-mail, I would not give out to you, because he needs his privacy as well.


    OK... You reviewers, Share your experience!

    Lots of people emailing me, asking where they can buy the series...

    A journalist wanted to interview me and asked me to write in the online magazine...

    Got cute emails from persons that can not speak English that wanna discuss about the movies I wrote (believe me, talking in SPANISH about anime is quite amusing, especially since I don't speak Spanish at all)...

    Persons asked for reference coz they wanna write a report about the series I write...

    Persons asking my permission to put my review in his / her site (I asked them to ask SC, of course)...

    and I thought I was the only one getting those weird e-mails. I've been receiving F4 'fan' mail a lot too - 'I love you!', 'I will always support you!', 'When are you coming for a concert?'

    Weirdest bit is that I have never written a review about F4 nor one about any of the series they've been in...

    Someone asked me for Sakura Drops lyric and translation for my review of First Love. I can't even talk and read Japanese.

    Another one seems tried to send email to his/her friend and CC to me about that review.

    The good part is those emails makes me realise people DOES read my review he,he,he... even my co-worker here read it without knowing it was mine... he,he,he... funny!

    Same here. Lots of people thought I was the one who produced the series, some asked me to change the ending, some comment on the outcome of the series Glad that I haven't received anything lately telling me off about a certain review or saying that some actress/actor rules. Others asked for e-mail address of certain actor/actress. People, please keep in mind that I only write what I think about series/movies, I have no connection whatsoever with those series or actors/actresses.

    I've had my fair share of asking where the themesongs and series can be downloaded and couple asking for viet names (sorry can't help as I am Chinese!!) but nothing out of the ordinary as far as reviews go.

    Kinda on a tangent, but I once had an email off someone who read my MK translations and wanted to ask for help with a thesis he was writing for his PhD about the Monkey King and the Journey to the West. I told him I was no expert and just translate stuff.

    Talking That's so hilarious!

    Hahaha

    That's so funny! I haven't written any reviews yet(!) but I've received two emails from some company thinking that SPCNET is my website. You'd think Spcnet's name isn't obvious enough....haha...do they just sent random emails or they just doped up on drugs?

    It's funny how you all get those emails. TKL's the best...hahhaha producer of the series? Hahaha...that's a good one!

    Well I get the whole load. Some of them: Fan mail to artists like F4, people asking if I could arrange for F4 to hold a concert in so and so country (my favorite--as if I have the power), show different tv series at different times (again, I don't control tv stations), one-liners (like "you suck", or "____ tv series is the best") and lots of themesong questions.

    hmm...I've only written one review, and I get e-mails with peoples asking me where they can buy the series and whether there's an english version and stuff...pretty boring..
    one particular person was so desperate to knwo the ending that she e-mailed me and I ended up writing up the whole of the end of the series in fanfic form through e-mail...*whew* that was tiring...

    I have fan posts at the guestbook in my site though...things like "I love you", "you act very well" hehehe...^_^6
    smile!^_^
    ...and if you felt happy for that small second, wasn't it worth it!

    I just wrote one review and it feels good to have my own writing on a cool site. I hope I don't get any junk emails from anyone like the other reviewers do.
