Movieworm

most people i know are bookworms. i love books, well novels. but i'm not crazy of them. i usually read novels which gonna be made to movies because i already know the actresses and actors who gonna play as the books characters.

i love movies damn much. i love such anti cliche movie. to tell you the truth, i hate such movies ended with "happily ever after". i mean, i do like happy ending, but i don't like such movie which i can predict HOW it's gonna be ended - i'm not really interested in predicting an ending while watching a movie, but if it's predictable, it'll suddenly pop in my head.

if you guys have already watched silver lining playbook played by jennifer lawrence and bradley cooper, you must be knowing the ending which ended with a happily-ever-after ending. i could predict how the movie gonna end even when the movie hadn't reached the climax. i must appreciate jen and brad's acting tho. they were incredible in that movie.

i'm gonna praise the movies which have some mind-blown plot twist. like struck by lightning. written and played by the genius, mr. colfer. sorry but i've gotta say it actually (also) deserves an oscar. mister colfer's acting was priceless and the plot was awesome. it wasn't cliche and was meaningful. it could bring your tears out.

maybe i should just give out the list of my-kind-of movies.

harry potter & the hunger games
too brilliant to review.

star trek into darkness
my hands shook while watching it. it was incredibly spectacular. imma give you some spoilers so beware.

the plot twist was awesome. i was almost tricked when khan started to cry because his sleeping-friends were gonna be exploded along with the torpedos. i thought he was the good guy seriously. i regretted to predict that it really was marcus who was the bad guy.

maybe there were a bit of lacks in the movie like, marcus' daughter, carol marcus, had ever said "i'm ashamed to be your daughter" or something like that. she had also thought that it was her father who was the bad guy. then khan killed marcus and i didn't see any father-daughter relationship at all after that. she should've realized her fault over that strong sentence.

i love this movie because i didn't see any sexual attraction in it. but many audiences feel a bit upset over carol marcus underwear-scene. it didn't give any meaning to the scene even to the movie, but i thought it was meant to be - can i call it - as comedy. it didn't turn me on at all.

overall, the visual effects were nearly perfect. you've gotta watch it. feel the shock.

struck by lightning
just like i said before, it was anti-cliche and meaningful. the movie begun with carson phillips struck by lightning and dead. overall the movie is like a flash-back when carson was still alive, before struck by the lightning. it was full of brilliant sarcasms, beautiful quotes. well thanks to mister colfer.

shutter island
this movie was freaking mind-blown. leonardo dicaprio's acting was amazing - why hasn't he got any oscar already? - and you're gonna end the movie by saying 'wtf'.

the ward
just like shutter island. it was mind-blown. it was much more horror than shutter island but i've gotta say the plot twist was unpredictable and yes, i ended it with 'wtf'.

the shining
IT WAS CREEPY.

the dream house
it's a story about a person who got a mental disorder just like shutter island and the ward. it was played by agent 007 - it's daniel craig for god's sake. in my opinion this movie wasn't as creepy and sadistic as the ward and shutter island. this movie was pretty emotional. the plot twist was brilliant.

maybe if you guys have seen the poster, it looks creepy. but actually the movie isn't as creepy as the poster. it won't bring you a nightmare. i can say this movie was touchy. i watched this with my friends at school and we were like 'aww no' when the whole craig's character's memories finally gone with the fire - just watch the movie already to know what i meant about 'his memories'.

rectoverso
this is my favorite indonesian movie. although i've read the book - which is better than the movie - but it's worth to be watched. this movie is about 5 separated unhappily-ever-after love stories.

a little thing called love
another asian movie i'm crazy about. mario maurer was totally handsome in this movie. it's a thai movie. the plot twist made me cry.

you are the apple of my eye
to be honest i'm not really crazy of this movie as i'm crazy about a little thing called love. but i love the anti cliche plot. another romantic and also touchy movie to watch.

i'm gonna add some more if i have the time to watch. bye.

Courage

courage. to be honest i just knew that word while watching glee s02. this word quite influenced me in doing this journey. without courage, i wouldn't have got through all of these. i'm not really keen on keeping my blog as a diary. but if once i share a sharing, it will be either useful, meaningful or rich of morals - yeah.

as you guys can see from my latest post that i'm interested in the international class of a university. i tried to apply with the talent scouting way. i had submitted the required documents to the website. i had waited for the result maybe for around a month. i'm eager this so bad. i prayed so that i could be accepted by this way. if i pass this, i can be in my desired class without doing any acceptance test first.

and last week, i was called by the university that i had to come to an interview. that was my last fight to be accepted. i practiced with my parents for that interview. i was like 'okay this is gonna be a traditional interview so i have to be relax, nothing to worry because i've done this stuff before'. i prepared some questions which might be asked by the examiner.

the day finally came. it was on monday. i felt prepared and ready for all the cases i was gonna face. at 12 pm, we were gathered in a room. there were 39 of us. i felt optimist that i could be one of the 20 who's gonna be accepted by this special way. we were given a presentation about the interview. it was such a unique interview i could say.

it was called mmi. i didn't really know exactly what kind of interview was that. my friend told me that we were gonna be divided into groups and do the interview in groups which meant together. but, that was all wrong. in this interview, there were 8 stations included 2 stations as 'rest' stations. we were given 7 minutes for each station. i was put into the 2nd session. as i've experienced, those stations divided into:

first. role play.
i didn't prepare for that thing for real. i thought that we were gonna act 'doctor and patient'. this was my first station - i thought it was gonna be the 'traditional interview' station. i was given a case as if i had to take my father's friend to the airport. i didn't think it was such a complicated case but it was getting complicated on responding the father's friend's wish. it really taught me to be calm on every case i've got to solve.

second. discussion.
discussion cases are divided into 3 stations. the first 'discussion' station asked me the opinion about the questionable medical schools in indonesia and what should i do in solving the case. the second station gave me a case if my friend copied my other friend's paper while my other friend actually allowed him and in the problem i was put as the leader of the team. the last station was about kartu jakarta sehat then i was asked to give my own definition about it and my opinion. these stations were quite hard because no one would ever be wrong about the opinions given upon the cases.

third. writing.
i was really scared of this station. when i checked up the case, it was written that i had to write down an instruction in searching up an information with google. it wasn't difficult to write down such instruction, but it was difficult in making a different instruction than others. i really wanted it to be special yet meaty.

fourth. traditional.
it was my last station before the 'rest' station. i was quite prepared for this station but maybe i was nervous so that i was a bit stammered. but thank god i could go through it.

all of them have taught me many things such as in expressing my own opinions, quick thinking, keeping my own arguments. i have to be optimist about the result which is gonna be shown by the end of the month.

yesterday, i found this:


i'm sure, they will. keep up the courage!

Thoughts Of The Day

it's been a long long long time! i've been trying to finish a math exercise... well i can't. so that i decided to make this post.

as you can see, i've reverted most of my old posts to drafts which means imma 'start of something new'. i'm such a cheesy - also awkward - girl. i don't think i deserve to share my diary here. therefore, i should just share my thoughts which incredibly appeared in my mind, shouldn't i?

first thought.
i just watched cardcaptor sakura: the sealed card movie today. it's a continue of the first movie. for all of you who haven't known anything about this anime, it first came in a manga then it was made to series.

the series were incredibly awesome. i'm in love with the ending which ended with: "i'll see you again, right?" it was said by sakura to shaoran at the airport while he was going back to hong kong... and the series ended after it. oh i almost forgot to tell you, shaoran had confessed his feeling to sakura, but sakura hadn't. actually she also fell in love with him, but i don't think she replied 'i love you too' to shaoran which means that she hadn't confessed her own feeling. i cried by the ending of the series. it was somewhat ended with a cliffhanger. tbh i love such movie with cliffhanger ending. not cliche.

then i watched the sealed card movie, it ended with a predictable ending which ended with: 'i love you' by sakura. she finally confessed it yay! but i didn't really expect that ending and i also think it wasn't a really emotional way to confess. maybe some people think it was emotional because shaoran had disappeared before the happy ending, but i had already known how the confession might be done before sakura hadn't even confessed.

it was great tho because of some actions they made. but it was a bit cliche. me no gusta. luckily i'm a sakura x shaoran shipper, so i still could enjoy it.

second thought.
it's still about cardcaptor sakura. if you guys have ever watched the series, sakura, at first, was attracted to yukito. shaoran also felt nothing to sakura - he was also attracted to yukito's kindness (or foods). i think they were all cute that way. i love sakura's innocence when shaoran was getting to like sakura. i love that innocence and i didn't see any of it in the sealed card (tomoyo was still priceless tho). i think it was all because she was growing up in that movie - maybe.

i'm still looking forward to the next movie or series tho. i hope it would be a story of grown up sakura and shaoran, maybe in the high school, and they're getting a trouble with the cards again. i don't expect a cliche ending also an overload romantic moments. it could be ended with a sad ending but mixed with a victory. that would be awesome. unpredictable yeah. or maybe a plot twist?

third thought.
i watched you're the apple of my eye yesterday and i love the ending okay. i'm planning to watch rectoverso. my friend said it showed 5 stories about 'unconfessed feelings'. AWESOME

fourth thought.
i'm in a trouble with math. i wish to be accepted in my favorite university without doing any test. hopefully i can reach my wish. i think i'm having a phobia to exams.

fifth thought.
after the national examination, i feel my life's becoming much more complicated than it should be. i'm getting bored of studying and i wanna relax in this holiday.

relax.all.the.days

wish me luck x

Grotesque

The flash back went through within me
It was smiling
They were over-whelming
Talking over a circle
Dreaming of wishing
We were a well-mixture

Flying to cut the sky
Reaching the fantasy
Waving to the bubbly skies
The land was on our feet
Walking against the wind
We were here

Tacky jokes we tossed
These were ours
I chose mine
Thee spreaded out magic
I was enchanted

Ambling those steps
I followed, covering
Such a bothersome
Blocking expectation

Clueless to the happening
I could be curious
Asking those clues
Ignorance muffled me
Dancing inside own symphony

I didn't need nothing
Lightning struck, flowing the spirit
Felicity was blown
I kept wordless
Who is this 'bright'?

It was mellifluous
As the word of beauty
Absolute in the sight
Glimmering in the thought

IS he?
