Yup, still Bednaya Nastya

OK, I can't help it.

It's the cheesiest song ever, for this vid, but it's incredibly appropriate, seeing that the MV is for the cheesiest thing ever, in itself: Russian telenovela Bednaya Nastya.



It has no redeeming intellectual value (though it really brings my Russian back even fresher, which makes it my default language, which creates a minor problem :P) but it's so irresistable.

You might remember me going crazy over Baron Vladimir Korf the telenovela, a few months back. I got about halfway back, and got sidetracked. But I restarted. Heeee. Vladimir is just as noble and sarcastic and clueless about women as ever. And Anna is just as busty and pushy and bird-witted-thus-requiring regular-rescuing. YES.

(For those who just tuned in, BN is a 120ep Russian serial set in 1830s Russia, with our heroine Anna a serf actress, and sexy Vladimir her noble OTP. There are evil families, politics, murder plots, and cool costumes).

I am so thankful for you sending it - I ended up consuming it in a one big heap.

though it really brings my Russian back even fresher, which makes it my default language, which creates a minor problem :P

I am so relating - when I spend all my time with English people I forget to "translate" in my head but after I speak a lot of Russian this returns and guys at work say that my accent comes out stronger..

So, who ended up being your favorite?

And also, did you change your mind on Michael and/or Lisa? I am still pretty 'meh' on both of them, as of ep 70. But Vladimir *swoon* and Alexander *swoon*

I've been waiting for you to get back to Bednaya Nastya. Oh, how I have missed you, my beautiful angsty Vladimir!
