See you in another life, brother. ='D

Lost is over. I guess after over 650 days you come around and watch it.

By What They Died For, I figured out that the despicable "Heart of The Island/Jacob/Smokey Gunna Destroy the Island" story was going to play out (the only part of Lost I didn't enjoy at all amidst parts of Season 4 with Sayid running around calling Charlotte CHARLOT & Geromino Jack obv.) so I accepted it.

P.S. Smokey FTW.


It was this emotional rollercoaster of a finale. My mind wasn't blown. But I still loved it for what it was. however, the underlying themes of letting go, moving on and starting over, reunion & redemption formed a very strong emotional backbone for the show. And for what it's worth - it gave not only the characters but also the viewers CLOSURE.

I was too excited about my mind's journey of Lost ending to cry. I strangely didn't. When Sun & Jin died. When Sayid died. (P.S. I cry every time a character dies. EVERY SINGLE TIME.) But when beautiful, brave Jacko staggered and fell at the bamboo shoots, back to where everything began and Vincent, swooped   down, licked him and stayed with him as he died, I couldn't help but let out a sob. It was over. Lost was over.




='D

Thank you Lost.
For your beautifully flawed characters.
For your intricate, powerful and captivating story.
For the finely woven web of awe-inspiring, gnawing mysteries, truths and revelations.
For capturing and delivering the human psyche - different parts of it every week.



For the time-travel & electromagnetic anomalies.



For the alternating melancholy & exploratory undertones in music.

For all your references (to Fantasie Impromptu & Stephen King esp.)
And even though David ain't real, he's as cool as Daniel Faraday

For all the weird convoluted Physics.
Let's get married, yeah?


For the idea of Daniel Faraday and Desmond Hume.
I have a constant too Daniel. WE HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON. The offer's still open btw.

For lovely Charlie Pace.
CRY FO' REAL. ='(

For brave crazy Jacko & For intelligent Benjamin Linus.

And of course, 

For Juliet.



& Sawyer.

For the amazing 120 (actually triple that) hours I spent forgetting everything else, lost in the surreal unreality and sheer brilliance of Lost.

Infinite Day Lost Challenge. DAY #1.

This blog post is dedicated to Season 1 of Lost.
For the amazing character development.
For the beautiful relationships.
For the fight for survival.
For the mystery and hope.
For their spirit.


Charlie Pace, yo.
Jack Shepard. The Leader.

Conman/Coolest Man on the Planet Sawyer

Sun Hwa Kwon suppressed by her husband, well not anymore at this moment.

Hurley. Dude, you're cool.

Shannon.She's dabitch.

Locke. He hunts.
Status: 'In a Relationship' with the Island

Hi Jin. We don't speak Korean.

Sayid Jarrah. Ex-Republican Guard. Torturer.
Boone Carlyle. ^_^

And then the amazing development of relationships.


And hunting.






And well, this is a different kind of hunting. I suppose.

And it is kind of funny with the Smoke Monster haunting them
And Vincent running off into the jungle, which leads to ehhh, awkward situations. Ehhh.
And with the crazy Frenchwoman on the island for the past 15 years torturing Sayid, thinking he is an 'Other.' Others steal babies.
And with Charlie feeling happy about Clairee. Aww.


Everybody realises that since the Others steal babies and Claire has a baby, she is in danger.
RUNNNNN.


However, it is too late and the creepy man you're looking at steals her away.

Charlie cries. And almost dies. But then Jacko saves him.

Meanwhile Boone and Goldilocks find a Hatch on the ground. Suspenseeee. SCANDAAAAAAAL.


And consequently, the same numbers that Hurley won a lottery with are inscribed on it. :O

And then all these things happen between all the survivors.
And then Boone and Goldilocks wander off into the jungle.


And they find a plane on a cliff. Boone climbs up. It is sad.
Boone dies.
Shannon cries.

So does Locke but then the Hatch does this. Ooh. And then you forget about Boone. ;D :)



And P.S. Say hello to baby Aaron. Yes, Claire finally gives birth. (she came back walking through the jungle with no memory of creepy man, just by the way.)

The survivors are inspired to find a way out of the Island and Michael builds a raft.

The Others are coming to take Baby Aaron. :O
OH SNAP.



So Sawyer, Jin, Michael and Walt leave on the raft and the rest of the survivors hope to open the hatch and find shelter there from the others.

And then they go get dynamite to blow it open. And a man blows himself up. Dr. Arzt being that man.

And all these cool things happen.
And your mind is fucking blown.

And then the Others come and take away Walt.
TEH OH NOES.
Aww. You sad boy. Apparently. They didn't want Aaron. They wanted you. :(
And they open THEEE HATCHHHH. OOOH.




WHAT THE HELL IS THAT.
WHAT IS IN THE HATCH.
ARE THERE DANGEROUS PEOPLE.
CAN THEY GET PROTECTION THERE?
WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO WALT?
MICHAEL, SAWYER AND JIN?
ARE THEY EVER GOING TO GET RESCUED.
IT IS A MYSTERY.
AND IT IS AMAZING.
IT BLOWS THE MIND.
