Welcoming the Long-awaited Year, 2012..


Selamat tahun baru!
Tahun baru kali ini cukup berbeda. Walaupun (tetep) nggak ada perayaan khusus, tapi tahun baru kali ini menjadi awal yang manis bagi kehidupanku karena sekaligus merupakan perayaan 2nd monthsary bagiku dan seseorang yang sangat special. Awalnya aku pikir dia lupa, tapi ternyata nggak. Seneng tapi juga sedih karena kita masih belum bisa ketemu. Semoga tahun ini rencana kita untuk ketemu bisa kesampean. Aku bener-bener pengen mengenalnya lebih jauh dan Insya Allah kalo jodoh semuanya akan berjalan lancar :)
Ngomong-ngomong, flash back dikit ya tentang kehidupanku di 2011. Again, 2011 bukan tahun yang terbaik untukku, tapi cukup membuatku bahagia.

Amarte Duele (2002)......a story of Romeo and Juliet from Mexico

 ENGLISH:
 The story begins in a suburb of Mexico City with Ulises, whose father sells clothes in the market. He is accustomed to living humbly as he belongs to a low socioeconomic class, and could be considered a "naco" (a pejorative word often used in Mexican Spanish to describe the bad-mannered and poorly educated people of lower social classes). Ulises has a hobby of graffiti and live in the bad boys neighborhood at night. But one day he met Renata, an upper-class girl. They met by accident at a Mall. Ever since he first saw Renata, Ulises felt strange and very interested to this girl. Despite knowing the socio-economic differences between them, he followed Renata, her sister and a friend who were shopping. Renata tried to flirt Ulises and her friend tell her to kiss Ulisess. A kiss that was originally just a joke turned into a very passionate for them both. Since then they have often met secretly at the Mall and finally make a love story. Initially, they conceal the relationship, but eventually the parents of Renata know and prohibit Renata to meet Ulises. Up and down love story of Ulises and Renata which have different social class make this movie is interesting. Sad ending anyway, but this is perfect to accompany our free time, especially when we are in a sensitive situation (because it would make you cry). The strong love between them might be able to tell us that love is so universal and do not view social status, race, or whatever.

This film has won numerous awards including the Ariel award (an academy award for Mexican films), MTV Movie Awards, and the Chicago Latin Film Festival (a U.S. film award which focuses on Latin American films)

Chinesse Actors who used to be Famous in Indonesia

I am getting older but memories from the past would never fade away..

Lucu juga kalo inget jaman dulu, masih cupu, jelek, innocent, tapi pinter. Jadi kalo dirangkum, aku yg dulu adalah seorang nerd. hihi nggak nyangka sekarang jadi seperti ini. Walaupun sifat kelaki-lakianku masih blm bisa ilang, tapi kata orang-orang sekarang aku makin feminim :p
Inget sifat tomboy-ku, aku jadi inget peristiwa paling gila yang pernah aku lakukan demi cintaku pada seorang artis. Artis ini bukan sembarang artis. Ini udah bapak-bapak banget, bahkan melebihi usia Mark Feehily. hoho..
Dia adalah Jimmy Lin! Aktor sekaligus Penyanyi asal Cina. Kayaknya dia satu-satunya artis, bahkan satu-satunya orang yang pernah membuatku potong rambut model cowok. Gara-gara pengen seperti dia (saking cintanya), aku sampe rela memangkas rambut panjangku jadi sependek ini:
