Dirty business in politics, d’oh it’s a public secret.
I believe it’s not just in that, life is full of dirty business stuffs.
Sincerity, does it really exist right now?
Popcorn bestfriend
National Geographic’s Departures, Skins, and Akunin (Villain).
Maybe you need something to watch?
Unemployement is just one thing.
The big stuffs are betrayal and the following domino effect.
Hey, it’s really happened in this country!
Maybe, now it’s not your time anymore.
But soon I will make something to make you really proud, Dad.
Just wait, of course on my own way.
Perfect is boring.
But for having a not perfect one in this condition, it makes you, seriously…
like a joke!
May I blame it to a bad luck?
****! clinic is just sick!
Anyway, maybe this movie will entertain you a bit.
To prevent you all to be the lunatic ones.
Great story, great act.
A bit dark, but
you should watch it.
Two movies for your weekend!
About Love
This one contains three stories in one movie you don’t wanna miss.
All stories show the relationship between Japanese and Taiwanese, who keeps using their own language and it makes the film interesting.
Those three stories took place in three different cities: Tokyo, Taipei, and Shanghai.
Hello Stranger
So this one is really fun to watch, Thai movie.
All you have to do is just sit down and enjoy it, you’ll be amused.
Too cheesy and lightweight movies? Nah, sometimes you just need entertaining stuffs, don’t be so serious.
So, happy watching then!
Movies will give you another atmosphere.
Relax, enjoy the beginning to the end.
To a temporary escape from your unknown ending life.
Want some? Try these, these are Indonesian ones.
Your brain is already bored with your intensity.
So these are worth, worth to watch.
Enjoy! :p
It’s 3:27 AM and I’m typing.
Wow, it’s a very long time until I notice I didn’t post anything to this blog.
So it’s already 2,5 months I’ve been working as a co-ass dentist in campus clinic. Kind of tired and such a slap knowing I’m still stupid, hahah. But I’m not gonna write those clinic experiences in this blog, I’m full of it, like for every weekdays I must face with those experiences, so better I write something else on this heavenly weekend before the clinic kills my brain.
Movie. Yes, movie, this is what I will write. Okay, I ate some movies, months back there until now. So, it would be good if I give you a movie recommendation to watch.
Ellen Page’s Marathon
Haha, this girl really knows how to act and choose a good movie. Starting from being a tortured girl in An American Crime, to a little girl who tortures a guy in Hard Candy. Once you see her as a daughter of a lecturer in Smart People and next time you see her as a member of Roller Derby team in Whip It. I must admit it’s fun to see her acts, with her noted style and also edgy dialogues coming from her mouth. So just watch all those four, oh five if you add Juno, you’ll be entertained.
“So tell me, what is it like of being stupid?”
(500) Days of Summer
Unique, yes this is a unique movie. The story is about Tom and Summer as a couple. Just that? hoho, absolutely not, just watch it, you’ll see properly strange flashbacks, good story, strong characters, and so on, plus you’ll get Zooey Deschanel! hahah.
More good scores for this movie is for its soundtrack. It is a must have item, I must say. It just perfectly blend with the scenes on the movie. You can get the mixture of Regina Spektor, the Temper Trap, Meaghan Smith, the Smiths, and others in one package. Honestly I listened to the soundtrack first before I decided to see the movie, haha.
“So please, please, please. Let me, let me, let me. Let me, get what I want, this time.”
Julie & Julia
It’s another good and unique movie. Based on two true stories, first is Julia Child and another one is for Julie Powell. The movie shows their parts one after another, blended, stirred, fried and sweetened to a good taste just like the food they made along the movie runs. It tells not just about the food, it’s more like about struggle, a power to achieve something, a desire to counteract the problems, and plus there is blogging issue. You watch it, you’ll be inspired.
“It’s gonna be good for you to finish something for once in your life”
So this is it, it’s the end of my recommendation.
Oh but wait, want to tell you that one of my LOMO photos (below) is chosen as one of big 60 in “Klastic-Qiu Photo Competition”, yay!
Those big 60 will be exhibited in Wardrobe 2010 event on April 30th – May 2nd 2010, at Kartika Exhibition Hall, Balai Kartini, Jakarta.
Be there and vote my photo for big 10! 
Well then, see ya!

akhirnya masuk 10 besar, tapi ya itu, gak menang, hehe…memang Blackbird, Fly belum berjodoh, haha…
A week has passed from APDSA 2009 Penang, so it means the new semester will be coming tomorrow!! ouch… (Ah ya, will post about APDSA later, it’s already on the list). Because of that, I try to cheerish each days left before back to daily routine.
So it was yesterday, the last Saturday nite from this long holiday. Had a plan to watch a movie on 3.10 pm, but we got late, so we bought the 7.30 pm tickets. And the special thing is, I was fasting on that day, and Sushi Tei didn’t give us a chance to sneak in, hahah, so better we got another one: Pasta de Waraku!
It’s 6 pm, so we started to break our fasting: sweet ice tea plus the dates (thanks for giving it free)
Next round is buy one get one pizza: so lucky us there’s such a promo, so it would be nice not to ignore it, one pan Unagi Pizza plus another Salmon Mushroom Pizza.
I had Cod Roes and Scallop Gratin for my main dish, and my friend chose Spicy Mentai and Mushroom Pasta.
We thought that we’re already stuffed, but there are another promo using our student cards! I thought it would be just a simple scoop of ice cream, but then we had two PARFAITs!! and they’re totally free~~
Then we watched a movie, oh my, it’s a must watch movie. It’s fun, end of statement. Maybe you had watched Superbad? I think both of them are in same genre.
“Actually I am a doctor too”
the doctor replied, “I knew it, you are a dentist. You kept repeating it last night. But hey you are only a dentist, not a doctor!”
Haha, feels like a slap! But it’s okay, it’s a joke afterall.
Another cheesy post? I knew it.
Simple day, but it’s just perfect.
Waktu luang bingung mau ngapain? bisa dicoba salah satunya dengan mencoba tontonan drama Jepang, yang sekarang dengan mudahnya bisa kita lihat di beberapa situs penyedia online drama. Sebenernya gw juga baru-baru ini aja nyoba nonton drama Jepang, demi meningkatkan skill bahasa Jepang gw (khususnya masalah listening, berharap jadi jago), tapi nyatanya tetep abal juga, karena udah ada subtitel bahasa Inggrisnya, jadi gak merhatiin lagi percakapan bahasa Jepangnya…heheh..
Gw tergelitik buat post ini karena drama Jepang gw pikir menyediakan tontonan berkualitas (tentu harus selektif juga sih) dengan berbagai varian tema yang tidak biasa. Dan satu nilai tambah lagi adalah, keseluruhan cerita hanya dikemas dalam maksimal belasan episode, jadi emang bener-bener padat, tidak bertele-tele, memiliki esensi di setiap episodenya, dan menghilangkan kesan dipanjang-panjangkan demi menaikkan rating, seperti layaknya sinetron Indonesia yang bisa mencapai ratusan episode bahkan sampai pemerannya awalnya beranak pinak atau malah diganti sama pemain lain…hehe, no offense…walaupun dulu ada juga serial yang menarik buat ditonton seperti serial Arisan atau juga Jomblo…mungkin gw belom nyoba buat nonton secara intensif kali yak, jadi belom tau cara menikmati sinetron Indonesia…
Bingung memulai dengan drama apa? Gw akan mencoba me-review salah satu drama dari beberapa yang layak tonton:
Zeni Geba
What’s more important than money? It’s someone’s heart
Drama ini berpusat pada Gamagori Futarou, seorang anak yang tidak pernah merasakan hidup berkecukupan sejak kecil, dengan ibu yang sakit-sakitan, dan bapak yang lepas tanggung jawab akan keluarganya sejak di-PHK. Too cliche? tunggu dulu… cerita pun berkembang di mana ibu Futarou meninggal akibat penyakitnya sampai akhirnya Futarou memiliki konsep hidup bahwa dia akan melakukan apapun untuk “mengalahkan” uang, memiliki pemikiran bahwa semua orang gila uang dan dia bisa mengontrol orang lain dengan uang. Konflik pun semakin memanas (caelah) dengan masuknya Futarou ke dalam keluarga Mikuni yang kaya, yang memang sudah direncanakan sebelumnya.
Yang menarik di sini adalah bagaimana cara Futarou untuk mencapai tujuannya. Bagaimana dia mengatur strategi pembunuhan, memperlihatkan perilaku dengan memikirkan efek psikologis orang sekitar, serta hal-hal lain yang dilakukan untuk mendapatkan kepercayaan terhadap dirinya yang notabene orang miskin. Matsuyama Kenichi di sini menurut gw sangat sukses memerankan Futarou di mana dia bisa berakting terkesan polos sampai psych, walaupun kadang-kadang agak sulit untuk melepaskan image L (Death Note) dalam beberapa scene. Tapi yang gak kalah menarik adalah akting Shiina Kippei sebagai Gamagori Kenzo, ayah Futarou, yang sedikit banyak akan mempengaruhi rencana-rencana Futarou selanjutnya.
Walaupun cuma 9 episode yang masing-masingnya berdurasi kurang lebih 45 menit, semua cerita sudah terkemas dengan baik, tanpa membuat kita bingung dengan jalan ceritanya. Beberapa flashback ke masa kecil Futarou memperkuat kesan trauma Futarou, dan semakin mendukung Futarou untuk membenarkan konsep hidupnya. Setiap kejadian yang terjadi di sini memiliki maksud, bahkan sampai scene yang gw kira terlalu klise di awal (dengan kemunculan karakter yang sebenernya udah meninggal layaknya sinetron), ternyata ada esensinya juga. Satu nilai tambah lagi, final episode dari Zeni Geba ini memang pantas untuk menutup keseluruhan drama, puas!
Macarons, oh well it really is quite expensive cookie (related to Zeni Geba)
Beberapa drama lainnya yang bisa juga jadi pilihan pengisi waktu luang:
Tentai Kansoku (check out the soundtrack by Bump of Chicken, it’s a great music)
Gokusen Series
First Kiss
Hachimitsu to KUROOBA (Honey and Clover)
News no Onna (Anchor Woman, oh it’s so old school….check the ending song by Judy and Mary)
Haken no Hinkaku
Hataraki Man
Attention Please!
