I really like the storyline. It's not too exaggerated just like "Sinetron", just picturize a normal teen's life. Ssstt! And the girl also cute! ;)

The story is about Nam, an ugly-duck girl who fell for her senior, Shone. Shone is a very popular guy in the school. He is smart, cool, handsome, kind. Yeah, whatever-you-named-it! Nam has 3 best friends named Cheer, Nim, and Gie. They helped Nam to become a "cleaner" girl. Nam also has "competitor", Faye, the Mango-Cake-Girl.

Finally, Nam became much more better than before. And the guys in the school started to like him, except Shone (at least that what she thought).

When Nam joined Shone's peer-group, she's getting distracted with her 3 best friends. Nam also has new boyfriend, Top, who is Shone's childhood best friend. But deep inside her heart, she still has feeling for Shone. That's hurt. :(

At the end, they broke up. When graduated, Nam confessed her feeling to Shone. But at the moment, Shone already has relationship with Pin, his buddy. It told that Shone went to Bangkok and Nam went to USA to study. But before go, Shone gave his scrapbook to Nam. It's all about his feeling to Nam.

Nine years passed by, they met again at TV Show. Nam become a fashion designer, and Shone become a Photographer, his hobby since SHS. They met and told each others feelings. I think they'll getting married after that ;)

It's very funny and refreshing movie after all. I can't stop laughing all the time! The good point is, it didn't lose the values. I got some points from the movie. We can make someone we love as a motivation to be better. The next point is, waiting maybe hurting our heart, but God always know what and when the best for us!

Some good quotes from the movie...

"All of us, have someone who is hidden in the bottom of the heart. When we think of him/her, we will feel like a little pain inside. But we still want to keep him/her. Even though didn't know where he/she is today, what is he/she doing. It's a little thing called LOVE."

"Friend is just not friend because it's appearance." -Nam's mother.

"An angel must be in heaven. Who want to be in hell like us?" -Cheer.

"I don't understand, why it must be you to be one in my heart..." -Nam.

"Don't worry, you still have us to support." -Cheer.

"This book is funny but it makes me know how much you have tried. I want to tell you that you had succeeded since you began to do. Love can win everything, especially fear." -Shone in his scrapbook.

"Today I saw Top confessed. You know, I'm hurt. Why our time never match?" -Shone in his scrapbook.

"He is like my inspiration. He made me use the love in good way. He is like a power that supports me to be better and better 'till I'am today's Nam." -Nam.

Some screenshoots...

At the end, I've learnt something from the movie.

If you feel lose someone, either your girl/boy or your friend, don't give up! Maybe someday you'll meet again in unexpected way! :)

Rate : 8.8/10

[Thai Movie Review] Love of Siam/รักแห่งสยาม

I'd like to review this movie. Maybe you haven't heard this Thai film. It's not so booming in Indonesia, but it was booming in Thailand. I watched this for the first time umm looks like one or two years ago, and I think, not many film director or production house have producted movie like this one because the theme is very unusual. It's about finding "identity". Maybe I should give the casts first ;)

Directed by : Chookiat Sakveerakul

Staring : Mario Maurer as Tong, Witwisit Hiranyawongkul as Mew, Jirayu Laongmanee as Little Tong, Artit Niyomkul as Little Mew, Sinjai Plengpanich as Sunee (Tong's Mother), Songsit Rungnopakunsri as Korn (Tong's Father), Chermarn Boonyasak as June/Tang, Kanya Rattanapetch as Ying, Aticha Pongsilpipat as Donut, etc.

The story began when Tong, an energetic boy, accidentally spitted gum into Mew's hair. Mew is a calm and musical boy. Mew lived with his grandma. At the school, Tong helped Mew when Mew was being bullied by another students. And then, they became close friend.

One day, Tong's family went to Chiang Mai, but came back without Tang (Tong's sister). Tang want to stay with her friend longer. Tong's getting closer with Mew. Tong bought Mew a present and decided to give it to Mew piece by piece in a game of Treasure Hunt. One by one, Mew found all of the pieces except for the last one which was hidden in a tree. The tree was cut down before Mew was able to retrieve it leaving the present Tong bought for Mew incomplete. Tong was disappointed at their misfortune, but Mew remained grateful for Tong's efforts. Tang called her parents and told them that she would extend her stay at Chiangmai until the 24th of December.

Unfortunately, Tang had an accident and she's lost. Tong felt very sad and Mew tried to cheer him up as he can. (That's very touching for me.) As they cannot find Tang, Tong's family decided to move.

Time goes by. Six years later, they met at Siam Square. Mew has became a lead singer of his band, and Tong's now has a pretty girlfriend, named Donut. Mew also has secret admirer named Ying. But after meet Tong, Mew realized that he has feeling to Tong. And they meet June, who really much like Tang. So, Tong's mother want June to help her husband from desperation because Tang's lost.

Tong and Mew became closer, until one day, Tong kissed Mew at his house. They've realized that they have "feeling" for each other. But Sunee saw this. And she tried to block this relationship. So their relationship is getting fader and fader.

At Christmas time, as Tong and his mother are decorating a Christmas tree, they have a heart-to-heart talk about making choices, and Tong asks his mother to let him make his own choices.
Tong then goes to Siam Square for a date with Donut. Mew's band is playing nearby, so Tong abandons Donut and tells her that he cannot be with her. He then rushes to see Mew play and is guided there by Ying, who has accepted the fact that Mew loves Tong. After the performance, Tong gives Mew a gift, the missing nose from the wooden doll that Tong gave him when they were children. However, Tong tells Mew he can't be his boyfriend but that doesn't mean he doesn't love Mew.

The movie ended with Mew putting the missing nose back to the wooden puppet, saying "thank you" and crying quietly.

So, what can we learn from this movie? It's not about the gay-side, but many moral values we can learn, about love, about friendship, about family, about religion, and about life.

This one is a quote that Mew said when he was telling Tong about his late grandma.

"If we can love someone so much, how will we be able to handle it one day when we are separated? And if being separated is a part of life, and you know about separation well, is it possible that we can love someone and never be afraid of losing them? [Or,] is it possible that we can live our entire life without loving at all?"

Also from Ying, when Mew want to ask about Chinese phrase that he couldn't understand, but later he found Ying kept Mew's photos.

Ying: "It means, 'As long as you love, you will still have hope.'
Mew: "So, Ying, are you still hoping?"
Ying: "And should I still hope?"

And this one is Tang's/June's letter to Sunee and Korn

"I have been thinking. How will you make it from now on? But I believe so much that you can make it without me, because you have so much love for one another. Even though, sometimes, it seems to be too much that we end up hurting each other. But I believe as time goes by, we should agree that there is no such thing as 'too much love. Even if we made mistakes along the way, it's better than never having tried to love and be loved. Wouldn't you agree? Life always gives us opportunities to start over after we learn from our mistakes. I hope you take these opportunities and take good care of one another. Thank you for everything. I hope there's a chance that we will see each other again."

Memorable quotes from Tong is not so long, but yet, also meaningful! This is when he and Sunee were decorating Christmas Tree.

"What if I choose one and you don't like it again?"

And this one, when he met Mew for the last time.

"I can't be your boyfriend, but that doesn't mean I don't love you."

Oh ya, you should find the soundtrack's lyrics, sooooo deep yet meaningful.

How do you think about this review? Satisfying? Or confusing? Hahah..I score this movie 9/10 :D

Kuliah?

Well, selamat berjumpa lagi sama gw! Setelah udah lama banget ga ngeblog, gatel juga tangan. Berhubung blog ini jarang yang tau, mungkin gw bisa menuliskan sedikit - sedikit yang pribadi dari gw di post selanjutnya mulai sekarang.

Oh ya, gw dah lulus SMA! (iyalah) tapi NEM gw ga memuaskan bwt gw. Pokoknya kalo dirata - rata "cuma" 8.7, and I don't think it's the best that I can do! Don't know why. The clue is, kalo gw ngerasa bisa ngerjain soal, biasanya hasilnya biasa aja, tapi kalo ngerasanya ga terlalu bisa, jadinya di luar perkiraan! Weird, isn't it?

Tentunya abis SMA maunya kuliah, dan gw rasa rata - rata orang yang baca blog gw udah tau kalo gw pengen jadi dokter! Tapi dalam hal cita - cita, gw bukan tipe orang yang 'bener - bener harus itu'. Ada positif negatifnya sih. Jadi gw menyiapkan fakultas cadangan yang bukan kedokteran.

Prioritas pertama, gw pengen masuk FKUI. Dan gw udah gagal di SNMPTN Undangan, which is very unfair in my opinion. But I keep trying with SNMPTN Tertulis. Terus di yang ke-2, gw masukin SITH ITB. Mungkin jarang yang denger fakultas ini. Sekolah Ilmu Teknologi Hayati, tuh singkatannya. Dari namanya bisa dikira - kira kan belajar apa? :) Sebenernya gw agak berkecil hati, soalnya banyak yang mengerenyitkan alis waktu gw bilang mau masuk sini. Ada yang bilang buangan, ga eksis, cuma ceweknya aja yang cakep - cakep *blah*, trus ada yang bilang, mending di biotek atma aja, kan lw uda keterima juga di sana. Dah deh, jadi risau gw. (Bukan galau. Menurut Dimas, galau cuma buat urusan percintaan)

So, I hope, dengan gw naro pilihan ini, Tuhan bakal kasih yang terbaik buat gw. Meskipun SITH passing gradenya rendah, tapi kalo emang bukan yang terbaik buat gw, Tuhan ga akan kasih accept gw masuk situ.

Wish me all the best, guys!

Adegan Sinetron Gak Meaning & Gak Realistis

Kecelakaan lalu amnesia atau lupa ingatan

Di Rumah Sakit...

“Aku dimana? Kamu siapa??? Kamu siapa???” kata penderita pada seseorang di depannya.

“Aku adalah ….. majikanmu,” jawab orang itu dengan wajah serius.

Dan dalam waktu sekejap, tiba-tiba kepala penderita amnesia itu terbentur lagi saat hendak berdiri dari tempat tidur — dan langsung ingat semua!

“Hey! Kamu bukan majikanku! Kamu pembantuku!!!”

Pembantu : “Oops!”

Tuhan dan Kejahatan

Seorang Profesor dari sebuah universitas terkenal menantang mahasiswa-mahasiswa nya dengan pertanyaan ini, "Apakah Tuhan menciptakan segala yang ada?".

Seorang mahasiswa dengan berani menjawab, "Betul, Dia yang menciptakan semuanya".

"Tuhan menciptakan semuanya?" Tanya professor sekali lagi. "Ya, Pak, semuanya" kata mahasiswa tersebut.

Profesor itu menjawab, "Jika Tuhan menciptakan segalanya, berarti Tuhan menciptakan Kejahatan. Karena kejahatan itu ada, dan menurut prinsip kita bahwa pekerjaan kita menjelaskan siapa kita, jadi kita bisa berasumsi bahwa Tuhan itu adalah kejahatan".

"Mahasiswa itu terdiam dan tidak bisa menjawab hipotesis professor tersebut. Profesor itu merasa menang dan menyombongkan diri bahwa sekali lagi dia telah membuktikan kalau Agama itu adalah sebuah mitos.

Mahasiswa lain mengangkat tangan dan berkata, "Profesor, boleh saya bertanya sesuatu?".

"Tentu saja," jawab si Profesor,

Mahasiswa itu berdiri dan bertanya, "Profesor, apakah dingin itu ada?"

"Pertanyaan macam apa itu? Tentu saja dingin itu ada."

Kamu tidak pernah sakit flu?" Tanya si professor diiringi tawa mahasiswa lainnya.

Mahasiswa itu menjawab, "Kenyataannya, Pak, dingin itu tidak ada."

Menurut hukum fisika, yang kita anggap dingin itu adalah ketiadaan panas. Suhu -460F adalah ketiadaan panas sama sekali. Dan semua partikel menjadi diam dan tidak bisa bereaksi pada suhu tersebut. Kita menciptakan kata dingin untuk mendeskripsikan ketiadaan panas."

Mahasiswa itu melanjutkan, "Profesor, apakah gelap itu ada?" Profesor itu menjawab, "Tentu saja itu ada."

Mahasiswa itu menjawab, "Sekali lagi anda salah, Pak.

Gelap itu juga tidak ada. Gelap adalah keadaan dimana tidak ada cahaya. Cahaya bisa kita pelajari, gelap tidak.

Kita bisa menggunakan prisma Newton untuk memecahkan cahaya menjadi beberapa warna dan mempelajari berbagai panjang gelombang setiap warna. Tapi Anda tidak bisa mengukur gelap. Seberapa gelap suatu ruangan diukur dengan berapa intensitas cahaya di ruangan tersebut. Kata gelap dipakai manusia untuk mendeskripsikan ketiadaan cahaya."

Akhirnya mahasiswa itu bertanya, "Profesor, apakah kejahatan itu ada?"

Dengan bimbang professor itu menjawab, "Tentu saja, seperti yang telah kukatakan sebelumnya.

Kita melihat setiap hari di Koran dan TV. Banyak perkara kriminal dan kekerasan di antara manusia. Perkara-perkara tersebut adalah manifestasi dari kejahatan."

Terhadap pernyataan ini mahasiswa itu menjawab, "Sekali lagi Anda salah, Pak.

Kejahatan itu tidak ada. Kejahatan adalah ketiadaan Tuhan. Seperti dingin atau gelap, kejahatan adalah kata yang dipakai manusia untuk mendeskripsikan ketiadaan Tuhan.

Tuhan tidak menciptakan kajahatan. Kejahatan adalah hasil dari tidak adanya kasih Tuhan dihati manusia. Seperti dingin yang timbul dari ketiadaan panas dan gelap yang timbul dari ketiadaan cahaya."Profesor itu terdiam.

Dan mahasiswa tersebut adalah ALBERT EINSTEIN.

Konferensi Iblis

Dalam suatu Konferensi iblis, dikatakan: "Kita tidak dapat melarang manusia ke ibadah", "Kita tidak dapat melarang mereka membaca Kitab Suci dan
mencari kebenaran", "Bahkan kita tidak dapat melarang mereka mendekatkan diri dengan Tuhan mereka", "Pada saat mereka melakukan
hubungan dengan Allah, maka kekuatan kita akan lumpuh."

Oleh sebab itu, biarkanlah mereka pergi ke tempat ibadah; biarkan mereka tetap melakukan kesukaan mereka, TETAPI CURI WAKTU MEREKA, sehingga Mereka tidak lagi punya waktu untuk lebih mendekatkan diri kepada Allah".

"Inilah yang akan kita lakukan," kata iblis. "Alihkan perhatian mereka dari usaha meningkatkan kedekatannya kepada Allah dan awasi terus kegiatannya sepanjang hari!". "Bagaimana kami melakukannya?" tanya para hadirin yaitu para iblis. Sibukkan mereka dengan hal-hal yang tidak penting dalam kehidupan mereka, dan ciptakan tipudaya untuk menyibukkan fikiran mereka,"

Jawab sang iblis "Rayu mereka agar suka BELANJA, BELANJA DAN BELANJA SERTA BERHUTANG, BERHUTANG DAN BERHUTANG".

"Bujuk para istri untuk bekerja di luar rumah sepanjang hari dan para suami bekerja 6 sampai 7 hari dalam seminggu, 10 - 12 jam seminggu, sehingga mereka merasa bahwa hidup ini sangat kosong." "Jangan biarkan mereka menghabiskan waktu bersama anak-anak mereka."

"Jika keluarga mereka mulai tidak harmonis, maka mereka akan merasa bahwa rumah bukanlah tempat mereka melepaskan lelah sepulang dari bekerja". "Dorong terus cara berfikir seperti itu sehingga mereka tidak merasa ada ketenangan di rumah."

Pikat mereka untuk membunyikan radio atau kaset selama mereka berkendaraan". "Dorong mereka untuk menyetel TV, VCD, CD dan PC di rumah. Sepanjang hari. Bunyikan musik terus menerus di semua restoran maupun toko2 di dunia ini."

"Hal ini akan mempengaruhi fikiran mereka dan merusak hubungan mereka dengan Allah"

Penuhi meja-meja rumah mereka dengan majalah-majalah dan tabloid". "Cekoki mereka dengan berbagai berita dan gosip selama 24 jam sehari".

"Serang mereka dengan berbagai iklan-iklan di jalanan". "Banjiri kotak surat mereka dengan informasi tak berguna, katalog-katalog, undian-undian, tawaran-tawaran dari berbagai macam iklan.

"Muat gambaran wanita yang cantik itu adalah yang langsing dan berkulit mulus di majalah dan TV, untuk menggiring para suami berfikir bahwa
PENAMPILAN itu menjadi unsur terpenting, sehingga membuat para suami tidak tertarik lagi pada istri-istri mereka"

"Buatlah para istri menjadi sangat letih pada malam hari, buatlah mereka sering sakit kepala".

"Jika para istri tidak memberikan cinta yang diinginkan sang suami, maka akan mulai mencari di luaran". "Hal inilah yang akan mempercepat retaknya sebuah keluarga"

"Terbitkan buku-buku cerita untuk mengalihkan kesempatan mereka untuk mengajarkan anak-anak mereka akan makna shalat."

Sibukkan mereka sehingga tidak lagi punya waktu untuk mengkaji bagaimana Allah menciptakan alam semesta. Arahkan mereka ke tempat-tempat hiburan, fitness, pertandingan-pertandingan, konser musik dan bioskop."

"Buatlah mereka menjadi SIBUK, SIBUK DAN SIBUK."
"Perhatikan, jika mereka jumpa dengan orang shaleh, bisikkan gosip-gosip dan percakapan tidak berarti, sehingga percakapan mereka tidak berdampak apa-apa.

"Isi kehidupan mereka dengan keindahan-keindahan semu yang akan membuat mereka tidak punya waktu untuk mengkaji kebesaran Allah." "Dan Dengan segera mereka akan merasa bahwa keberhasilan, kebaika/kesehatan keluarga adalah merupakan hasil usahanya yang kuat (bukan atas izin Allah)."

PASTI BERHASIL, PASTI BERHASIL." "RENCANA YANG BAGUS." Iblis kemudian pergi dengan penuh semangat melakukan tugas MEMBUAT MANUSIA MENJADI LEBIH SIBUK, LEBIH KALANG KABUT, DAN SENANG
HURA-HURA". "Dan hanya menyisakan sedikit saja waktu buat Allah sang Pencipta."

"Tidak lagi punya waktu untuk bersilaturahmi dan saling mengingatkan akan Allah". Sekarang pertanyaan saya adalah, "APAKAH RENCANA IBLIS INI
AKAN BERHASIL???"

"ANDALAH YANG MENENTUKAN..!!!"
