I (HEART) getting SKINSed!!!

Okay so me and my frens were like totally into IUTs last sem and we still are of course. So whenever i went to any site to download the IUTs, Skins would definitely be featured in the site. N now that i'm on semester break, i decided to give Skins a try to find out wat the heck is all the fuss about. I noe it's a UK made tv series abt teenagers, and since i'm like already into GG, i didn't think i'd be much impressed. Little did i noe, i'd get hooked to it! It's like one of the most foul-mouthed, over-the-top-wild-characters-filled, nudity and sex promoting tv series with all the diff UK accents i've ever seen. N that's just the way i liked it hahahaha.

The specialty abt Skins is that it's abt students doing the Sixth Form for 2 years, so there's like 1 series (or season in US) for each year in Form 6. That means, the characters are changed every 2 series! That would definitely put a damp for those viewers who like to choose sides and root for their characters. U're gonna have to choose a diff character to root for once the tv serial reaches the odd series, Skinners! I shld say, even for non-fanatics (i'm one of those character-rooting-fanatics btw), it's hard to ignore the fact that the previous characters who shld have grown on u by the time u finish 2 series, won't be back for the 3rd series. So far i'm still in series 2, and the thought of my favourite characters Maxxie and Jal not returning for series 3 does make my heart in need of a plaster. Huhuhu...

But wat makes me feel better though is that i have found fellow Skinners among my friends! It turns out Pea is done with series 1 & 2, Fifi already started watching in Australia, and currently Jay is experiencing the joy in getting SKINNED as well! Thx guys! And another current obsession of mine that is Skins-inflicted is the downloading of all the songs used in every episode of Skins! Lol. It's a lot of work but so far i'm doing okay. Though some of the songs are only suitable heard with the the scenes from Skins, some of the songs are really good and are on my current always-listen-to playlist. And not forgetting all of the online videos of Skins! Not only is Skins aired on tv, a lot of mini episodes or additional videos are uploaded to the internet. So it is my quest to hunt and watch them all as well!

Well, I guess i shld continue get myself skinned for now... Ouch!

Generation 1 & 2

And of course, not forgetting, the trademark of Skins:
Wild & High Parties!!!

These wild parties that are portrayed in the series have actually sparked real wild drug and sex fueled parties in UK among teenagers lol. They go around organising parties called Skins Party and you can pretty much expect everything u watch in the series there, maybe even more haha.

The gang tired after another night and day of partying.

This is the clown logo that is used in Skins as an invitation. Somehow a creepy clown man comes out of nowhere. I'm still creeped out.
