long time no see yes?..well how about a late review for the latest Richard Curtis's work called About Time..a movie about romance and life with a little bit of time travel, the base line is what if you're given a ability to travel thru time and make amends on your life, sure there will be consequences, and that's the main issue, choosing which event you want to change, first of all the movie start in a slow pace, about a boy, just ordinary ginger haired boy, but when he was 21 learn that he can travel thru time, well seems like all the man in his family have that ability, the boy know from that moment on that his ability will gonna be use to find love, starting at the first event when he meets his first love, he travel back and forth just to create the perfect moment to express his love, right then we know not even the perfect moment can change people's feeling, and we saw the boy heart broken as he went to London to pursue his career and meeting with a bunch of odd character, and then we saw him accidentally meet with the love of his life, an ackward meeting in the dark, with seems kinda normal conversation, and they exchange numbers in the end, but its not a romantic movie if its doesn't have a twist, the boy have to travel back to time to help his friend but realize by helping his friend he never meet his dream girl, but by doing some remembering about the conversation with his dream girl and saw an add in the newspaper about Kate Moss's exhibition, he finally see her, and by doing some time travel to create the perfect moment to talk with her without sounding ridicilous or weird, he finally can make her open up to him only to learn that she already have a boyfriend whom she met at a party after the supposedly meet in a dark restaurant, so feeling resilient the boy travel back to time to go to the party and meet the girl before she ever meet another man, and they finally hang out and share a romantic evening with a little bit of a help of time travel, and their relationship went on and on with the marriage and babies, all went well until his dear sister got on an accident cause by a fight with his boyfriend, so he decided to travel back to time from the very start to help his sister but suddenly realize that by doing that he also changing all that he ever went thru with his family, so then we learn that the boy decided to just being there for her sister, and then the ultimate climax when the boy learn that his father is sick and dying, but also after that we also learn that his wife want another child, knowing to himself that you can't choose or have it all, in the end you have to be grateful for what you have, and not even the ability of time travel can reduce the amount of heartache in his life, you just have to learn to live your life day by day, making plans for rainy day, and just be there for the people you care of

note: I am a fan of Richar Curtis, well i think his best work is still Love Actually and let me share one of the quotes from that movie :  Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there – fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge – they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around

You know what's the one wrong thing we all do when we fall in love? WE EXPECT. And it just ruins everything..kata2 ini beberapa hari yang lalu diupload di salah satu path teman saya..dalem ya..dan komen2nya intinya sama yaitu ribet..is it wrong to expect something from love..mulai dari hal2 seperti..expecting he or she would understand me...expecting he or she would give up bad habit..expecting things gonna be okay eventually..Leonardo DiCaprio dalam film the Beach pernah ngomong : ''When you develop an infatuation for someone you always find a reason to believe that this is exactly the person for you. It doesn't need to be a good reason''..dan ketika that not so good reason is not enough anymore..we expect for something better..something suitable with our need...saya rasa  sih gk ada yang salah dari berharap..udah dari sononya..ketika memluai suatu hubungan ada harapan untuk keadaan lebih baik..karena katanya berdua selalu lebih baik daripada sendiri..memang sih gk pernah simple seperti itu..karena dalam berharap ada kecewa...kayak ngajak makan Pizza Hut eh jalannya sama orang lain..eh..maaf gagal fokes..tapi emang sih falling in love gk bisa dipisahin dengan expecting...terus momen Aku'ne Kudu Piye dunk?..ada yang bilang ya berhenti berharap..maksudnya terima apa adanya aja..well dari detik kita suka sama orang pun kita pastinya at least berharap disuka-in balik bukan..at least berharap kesempatan..semua itu awalnya harapan..dan kita berpegang sama harapan itu..dan walaupun kita dikecewakan berkali2..kita pun masih berharap thing will turn around...dan saya rasa jika boleh optimis.. boleh expecting..mengutip salah satu dialog film yang saya lupa judulnya..well it goes something like this:..there's a moment in life where you think you can't recover from any more dissapointment, and even the person that always dissapointed you like 6o% of your time, well we still cant live without them, and even everytime they walk up towards you and sneeze right on your face, you'll love the're sneezes more than anyone kisses...agak jorok ya tapi ya begitulah...i think if expecting ruins everything then hoping is holding it all together

K, desperately romantic ternyata

masih euforia lolosnya Indonesia ke putaran final di Myanmar 2014..kebetulan saya bersama teman2 mendapat kesempatan untuk menyaksikan langsung di GBK, agak mendadak sih karena ide brilian dari salah satu teman saya, ok untuk mempersingkat cerita..there we are ditengah lautan pendukung timnas U19..dengan stiker merah putih di muka kita yang lebih seperti perawatan kulit berminyak.berteriak seperti orang gila....dan adik2 kami di lapangan pun seperti tahu gk mau mengecewakan kami..dan akhirnya terjadilah hat-trick dari seorang Evan Dimas...memberikan saya 3 pelukan di bawah turunnya hujan pada malam minggu yang sudah begitu lama saya rindukan..#eaaa..so thank you for that..eh balik lagi ke lapangan...di sana kita melihat adik2 kita berlari tanpa lelah..semua bermain untuk tim ..untuk Indonesia..gk ada satu pun yang terlalu lama memegang bola hanya untuk show-off..seperti sadar kalo kata2 there's no I in the word TEAM..dan tim yang dihadapin pun bukan lawan yang enteng..dengan selisih gol yang lebih baik kita dituntut untuk menang..iya Korea Selatan yang udah wara wiri di kompetisi internasional..juara Asia U19 duabelas kali....dan mereka juga membuktikan kalo sepak bola mereka sudah begitu maju..bahkan gerakan pemanasan sebelum pertandingan aja sudah bikin kecut nyali...dan akhirnya kita membuat Song Hye Kyo menangis..lebih sedih daripada adegan di Full House...kondisi lapangan yang becek dibawah guyuran hujan deras...sehingga pertandingan terpaksa dihentikan sementara..diteruskan kemunculan bapak2 pembuat sumur biopori..bener-bener bikin emosi naik turun..kayak nunggu jawaban lamaran kepada sang pujaan hati...and the boys just wont stop running, and passing...dan kita belum pernah lihat Indonesia yang seperti ini..dan sejenak kita gk peduli sama hasilnya..we enjoyed their determination too much..but the boys decided entertain us with determination is not enough..and out of the blue..the captain scores 3 wonderful goals...dan pecah lah stadiun..mulai deh kampret2 yang gk bertanggung jawab menyalakan kembang api..terus terlepas masih ada juga oknum kampret dari suporter yang masih aja maen laser..seperti minta dicolok matanya pake garpu tanah buat bikin sumur biopori..Indonesia terutama suporternya memang perlu belajar dewasa...tapi malam itu kita seperti diajari oleh adik2 kita...tentang pantang menyerah..tentang bermain dengan hati..dan tentang artinya rendah hati..so thank you boys..and fly high young garuda

ngereview film ah....semalem nonton film Prisoners..jika anda belum nonton sih sebaiknya jangan...apalagi jika sebelumnya belum minum jus belimbing untuk menurunkan tekanan darah tinggi anda...tapi jika anda penggemar hugh jackman..di film ini dia masih berjalan dengan badan tegap-nya meskipun tanpa cakar adamantium-nya...dan jika anda peneliti masalah kulit kelapa mungkin bisa memperhatikan kemunculan ketombe akibat seminggu gk mandi dan kebanyakan gel rambut pada aktor sekelas jake gyllenhaal..dan oh ya selama seminggu itu doi gk ganti kemeja dan pemakaian-nya dengan kancing sampai ke atas layaknya penonton bayaran di dahsyat ditambah tentu saja efek basah dari rambutnya bak chow yun fat di film2 mafia cina..well enough about the two main actor...ceritanya sendiri penuh kejutan..banyak twistnya...dengan akhir yang membuat kita menahan napas..memikirkan masih ada gk sisa uang buat beli jus belimbing...emang sih gk kebayang sih dengan tragedi yang coba dijual di film ini..well yang membuat saya tercengang adalah motivasi si jahat..its to wage a war with God...so they created the event to switch a average good man into a sinister man..to cross the bridge between good and bad...iya gimana kehilangan dan keinginan untuk mendapatkan kembali bisa membuat orang berubah..dari yang tadinya baik bisa berubah...di film ini bener2 gk ada tokoh yang hitam putih...semuanya abu2..dari seorang bapak dengan segala masalah keuangannya..bapak yang kelihatannya cemen..ibu yang kecanduan obat tidur....sampai polisi yang katanya sepertinya lack of social skill...film yang sangat manusia...hugh jackman badan sih boleh gede..tapi hampir 80% kehadirannya di film ini selalu dengan mata berkaca2....so basically this film is about tragedies that change people..but even in the dark on some hole.. the father still praying..without knowing what happen surround him..he still pray..and in the end..God win the war

saying good bye itu gk pernah mudah ya...even for something better...bahkan omongan klise seperti this isn't goodbye tapi lebih ke sampai ketemu lagi..gk bisa menutupi lobang yang dirasain ketika kita kehilangan seseorang..well sound cheesy ya..kan ada social media..bisa texting to say hello..tapi saying goodbye selalu bikin kita mengenang...iya good times and bad times...terkadang di antara kenangan2 itu selalu ada pemikiran..what if i did things differently...tapi semua kan sudah terjadi..gk ada waktu buat mikir-mikir yang dulu lagi..karena dunia terus berputar dan gk akan mau berhenti nungguin kita..melihat ke belakang itu melelahkan, kenapa gk dijadikan sebagai titik awal yang baru...alasan untuk terus berlari walaupun gk ada yang dikejar..lho..eh maaf gagal fokus..abaikan statement barusan soal berlari...intinya adalah life is series of moment, and goodbye is part of it...missing also comes with the territory...don't dwell in the past..remember good things ends sometimes for better things..and better things ends for great things..so lift up your chin and greet for tomorrow cause the sun still shine..and if you ever want to look back..you'll see me here if u need.me..or at least you can count on that someone is wishing you the best in life could ever offer


merci beacoup et au revoir

udah lama ya gk nulis..maybe i am having what people called a writer's block...although i dont dare to position myself as a writer...sebenernya sedang mengalami masa dimana pengennya itu di kamar nonton dvd atau baca buku dan tenggelam di dunia saya sendiri...well i guess it just one of those days ya...mungkin karena gk hobby travel...atau memang anak rumahan..but i always find comfort doing that thing..anyway enough about me...i am fine kok if anybody is asking...pernah ngelihat sekitar kita..iya entah itu di busway, di jalan, di kantor, sekolah, dimana aja deh..liatin deh orang2nya..dengan penampilan-nya masing2...ada yang potongan rambutnya model korea..ada yang belah samping..ada yang suka pake rok..ada yang pake celana...dan mungkin penampilan mereka berbeda dengan penampilan kita...intinya berbeda..but do ever think that they probably are the same with us...iya sama...gk beda jauh..sama2 punya mimpi..punya masalah..sama2 mau doing great things in life..dan sama2 mau jadi orang baik..terkadang pendapat kita cepet jika menilai orang..ih dia kok begitu...lalu mulai deh peng-kotak-an berdasarkan apa yang kita lihat..well as a friendly reminder..dont you know that human being have five sense and arguably six...its like knowing what the Monalisa look like is totally different with actually being in the same room with the painting and looking directly at it....jadi untuk menilai alangkah baiknya jika ketika kita menilai seseorang..jangan hanya mengandalkan apa yang terlihat tetapi juga mendengarkan ceritanya, alasannya...dan coba rasakan dengan hati jika kita berada di posisi-nya..apakah masih sama yang kita rasakan...whatever shit life has to offer remember it could happen to you..dan saya selalu menganggap cerita manusia itu menarik...cerita yang satu gk pernah sama walaupun intinya sama...setiap cerita yang saya dengar selalu saya coba perlakukan spesial...well mostly sih...well if you believe everything happen for a reason.. sometimes life is about finding out the reason..
