I am feeling Lost-algic so I decided to repost the following on Lost that was written on January 16, 2007 on Dressed, the blog I used to write when I was at the Bay Area News Group. It was a fashion-centric blog, so that’s why I sound like a 15-year-old girl towards the end.

It’s been a while since I wrote about Lost. I really should be all up on it considering the finale is on Sunday — and I am kind of sad.

This week’s episode of Lost titled, “Happily Ever After” was packed with “kind-of” answers, WTF moments, the mystical walking dead lady from The Others and a ton of “bruthas” courtesy of Desmond – it definitely was cut from the same cloth as “The Constant”.

Jin and Sun get their chance to flash sideways in “The Package”
Last night’s episode of Lost (titled “The Package”) was a big ol’ cock tease. Everyone was waiting for a tear-jerking reunion of Sun and Jin. Instead, Sun gets hit in the head and can only speak Korean and Jin showed us that it’s okay [...]

Sun looks squeaky clean in last night’s episode of ‘Lost’
After watching the new episode of Lost called “The Substitute,” I came up with some new important points to the show:
1.) Sun is ALWAYS clean: No matter how much physical labor she does, Sun never looks dirty. She is always clean and put together. Her skin [...]
