It's friday again, and I'm still here in the ofc. Not just to go on OT but to go on overnyt. Yes, i know. Gelo said this afternoon to me, "Get a life!" Anyways, I'm not really bothered about this. I know this too shall pass and the project will be over (hopefully soon). I'm just sad coz I won't be ab;e to watch Joan of Arcadia again tonight. Speaking of Joan of Arcadia, this is the one tv program that i've been following lately. Maybe I grew tired of telenovelas or maybe I'm just not interested in fantaseryes.
The show's concept is already described in its theme song "One of Us" by joan osborne. God disguises Himself as an ordinary individual in the community, talks to Joan, and gives her tasks and missions. At times, He's the little girl with a eyeball headband and eyeglasses playing in the park, or the cute guy in brown coruduroy jacket who rides with Joan on the bus, or sometimes the utility guy who changes the street lamp bulb while saying "Let there be light.." In this tv drama, God takes on these earthly forms to be able to communicate to Joan. He tells her the things that she should do, but He never reveals everything to her, not even the reason why she should do those things. Most of the time, Joan who calls hersof a sub-defective, wonders why God wants her to do those things. But despite her doubts, she still goes on with her missions even though she is often misunderstood by her peers and her family. The choice of following or not following Him is still up to Joan. But if you're in Joan's position, how could you not follow Him if He personally says to you "Just trust me, Joan.."? In the process of fulfilling her tasks, Joan learns the lessons that God wants her to learn.
What's so interesting about this program are the dialogs between [God] and Joan although sometimes i think it's too harsh. (I don't think I could ever talk to HIm like that.) But it's easier for her to talk like that to Hin coz He's in human form. You'll see that her reactions are honest because she's just like talking to another human being. And also, the relationship between Joan and Adam is always somthing to look forward to. (very sweet *kilig*). This program never really ceases to bring tears into my eyes, every episode really hits home.
