Jika hidup adalah sebuah lagu,

maka hidupmu termasuk jenis lagu apa?

Videos of the week


Stolen - Dashboard Confessional

What more can I say about this song and this band. I love them. I love the song. I love Chris Carrabba. One of the sweetest 'love' and 'had a crush on someone' song I ever heard. Btw, Olivia Wilde  was the model in this video. She looks younger (hell yeah, the video was shot about 5 years ago) :)


Out Of Goodbyes - Maroon 5 featuring Lady Antebellum

I like this song. It's a little bit sad, but I love the way Adam and the Lady Antebellum girl harmonizing their voice. The one thing I don't like is the video. I really can't get it about the story. And..hey where's Adam?

Yogyakarta

I just got back from Yogyakarta today. It was an outing from my office. And it's only for two days. But here some picture that I've captured from the beautiful "old" city :







Yogyakarta was nice :)

Prinsessa



I just read the synopsis about this movie, Princess / Prinsessa. The story it's about a woman named Anna Lappalainen who had a mental institution, who seems convinced that she is a princess. As the film goes on, she uses this delusion to create a new world for the other asylum inmates that is fuller, deeper and in many ways far more humane than anything the institution offers them. The story was back on the 1945. She thinks that she's a royal highness, and the hospital where she has lived, it was her Castle. I think I have to see this movie soon. Because I really wanna know the ending. It says that this true story gave an positive impact about how we always feel about our dream. Anna herself, was actually a very talented woman. If you wanna know about her real life, just click this site.

A little hum

My friend, a human's heart is sometimes like a bird.
That sings on every branch of a tree, but nestles only on one.

Sweet life



Sometimes life is like an ice cream. Sweet, chill, lovable and beautiful. Eventhough ice cream is not last forever (melted and then vanished), but let's just enjoy the ice cream with a smile. Count your blessings over and over and over and over and over and over and over. Be thankful, then you will find peacuful in your heart. Have a sweet life everyone! :)

Karna



Last night, I went to Salihara to watched a theater show, Karna. Actually, I really don't know about 'Wayang / Sankrit' history. So that's why I wanna see it. The director of Karna, which is my Dad's bestfriend, Goenawan Mohammad, invited us to watch the show. As usual, my parents and I are really excited to watch it. The stage was so awesome, with a white color and lots of little cubicles. And the backgrounds that showed trees, jungle, arrows, rain, and some pictures about Wayang. The performances was also good. I think Sita Nursanti who's played 'Radha', is really talented and really into the character. Whani Dharmawan as 'Parasurama' was also great. They both really gave their best performanced.
The story itself was about an identity that Karna asked for all his life. About where he's came from, who's his real mother, why's he had been chose to be a 'Ksatria', and questions about life. The point is, after I watched the show, I feel like I've leraned a lot about history. Too bad the audience are not allowed to take a picture during the show.
The show ended at 22.30, and I guess the audience are really satisfied to watched the show. They all gave a standing ovation.
After the show, we met Om Goenawan and we congratulated him for the show. It was a succed show. He asked me "Do you like it?", then I just smiled and gave my thumb to him. Yes, I liked the show a lot Om Goenawan. Don't forget to invite me for another show :)

A mother's prayer

"Even before we took our last breath,
God almighty granted a holy blessing in our mother's heart"

Cannot wait for these



Snow White and The Hunstman

"Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?" Remember that quote from an old skool fairytale story, Snow White? Well, not for longer, we can see the new movie about Snow White and The Hunstman. I really wanna watch this movie, because I wanna see how's the effect and the "new" story in it. The director was the same as "Alice In Wonderland" movie. And Kristen Stewart, the Bella girl from Twilight is the Snow White. I'm sure this movie will be one of the best movie that we all wanna see :)



Immortals

Here's another good movie that I wanna watch. Remember the movie 300? Yep, this movie is kinda same. Have a great and awesome special effect. And the story is about a Spartacus troops. Really really wanna see this movie!



One Day

Just another love story movie. I like Anne Hathaway, so I guess I should watch this movie. The story is about a woman and a guy (who are bestfriends), had fellin love for each other. Another standard story, but I guess have a little bit different ending. Is it happy ending or sad ending? Well, we should watch it if we wanna know about it. :)


The Amazing Spiderman

This is an old but also a new version of Spiderman. Eventhough maybe I already know about the story, but still I wanna watch it. Andrew Garfield is the new Spiderman (replacing Tobey Maguire). I guess Andrew is more good looking than Tobey. And also have a good acting. All I know is, Spiderman will be release on March 2012. Wew, still long. But I hope I can see it soon :)

Blows my mind


Do you remember when I've posted a story about Tintin in this blog? Well, finally, last night I watched the movie with my friends. "The Adventure of The Tintin : The Secret Of The Unicorn". My opinion about this movie is : "UNBELIEVABLE REAL". I like this movie a lot. Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson really had a very great collaboration for made this movie. The effect was really great, just like real! The part when Tintin and Captain Haddock had stranded on a sea, oh my gosh..the water was soooo realllll! The story was also great. Eventhough not that same as on the book, but over all it was satisfied it. There's no doubt about this movie. I'm sure there will be a sequal for it. And I totally cannot wait to see it! Oh btw, Snowy was so cute. I fell in love with him rather than Tintin himself :)

Secret admirer

Last week when I was just had my lunch at 7 eleven, and when I was about to go, suddenly there's a guy came to me and gave me a poem (or a love words) on a bill paper. Then he said : "There's a note for you from my friend. He's the one who supposed to gave it to you, but he doesn't have a guts to do it. So he went away. Please read it, ok?". Then the guy just went away.



"Galileo = great mind.
Einstein = genius mind
Neutron = extra ordinary mind
Bill Gates = brilliant mind
You = always on my mind"

Haha, thanks to you. I am so flattered. Eventhough we haven't met yet. Bless you :)

Daydreaming

It's so nice having your self in a comfort bed with a warm blanket. Earphones in your ears, close your eyes, and pretending that you moving yourself to another dimension. Relax. Nice. And amazing. It's like you really grab the world in your hands, and put it nicely in a special place in your heart. :)

PS : 'Moving To Mars' by Coldplay was playing in my ears

Anyone else but you




I wanna do this with my 'forever' partner :)


You're a part-time lover and a full-time friend
The monkey on your back is the latest trend
Don't see what anyone can see in anyone else but you
Here is the church and here is the steeple
We sure are cute for two ugly people
Don't see what anyone can see in anyone else but you
We both have shiny happy fits of rage
I want more fans, you want more stage
I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else but you
You're always trying to keep it real
And I'm in love with how you feel
I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else but you
I kiss you on the brain in the shadow of a train
I kiss you all starry-eyed, my body's swinging from side to side
I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else but you
The pebbles forgive me, the trees forgive me
So why can't you forgive me?
I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else but you
Doo, doo-doo doo, doo-doo doo, doo-doo doo-doo
Doo, doo-doo doo, doo-doo doo, doo-doo doo-doo
I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else but you

(Michael Cera & Ellen Page, Juno)

Happy bday Dad

Today, one of my favorite man having his birthday. Happy birthday dear Dad! I wish everything for the best in your life. Always be the man that I adore so much. Love you forever! :)

Boybands

I remember the first Boyband that every young girl like was New Kids On The Block. These five young men (at that time), really made every girl breathless! Especially Jordan Knight, the lead singer. Back on the 1990, when I was still on elementary school, my older sister used to collected all of their things. While me? Not that interested about it, hehe. New Kids On The Block was from USA, and from United Kingdom they're also a boyband called Take That. Gary Barlow and Robbie Williams are the leaders on this group. "Back For Good" was one of my favorite song from them. All I know is, NKOTB and Take That wasn't made it for that long. They've had split up, and suddenly they're unfamous anymore. On 1996, this Boyband fever was suddenly "on" again. This time was for Backstreet Boys, Boyzone, Westlife, Five, 911, and so on. My favorite was Five. Because they're the only Boyband who doesn't look like a "Gay" type. Hehe, sorry for the others. The boybands really made a history on a musical industry. And some of them had came to Indonesia and had a concert. Lot's of girls were crazy in love for them. For me, those Boybands are a little bit special. Because their songs are sweet, loyal and always about love and about a girl of their dream. I lied if I say "I didn't like their songs".
But I guess now the Boybands fever wasn't that on anymore. Some of them already grown up, married, and having a kids. But some of them are still exist and make having their solo career. Sometimes, I really miss the moment when MTV or Channel V always play their songs, or at least I hear their song on a radio. It bring back the memories, while we all girls really had a crushed on those men.

Videos of the week


Livin On A Prayer - Bon Jovi

Why I chose this song? Well because I think this song is one of the old skool 80's rock that will last forever,. I always imagine it would be cool if I can sing this song on a stage or at least at the karoke. So powerfull!


Isn't It A Wonder - Boyzone

This song is sweet. I love the lyric. There's a time when Boyzone is so happening! And I guess this song is one of my favorite song of them.


Waiting For The Star To Fall - Boy Meets Girl

Wohooo...back from the 1988 when this song was on the tv almost everyday at 01.00 pm on RCTI. I love this song so much! And I love the video also :)
