Emmm...Girl's Only? Inspired by Movie Ocean 8

-- disclaimer : no - I am not going to write about 101: Being a Criminal for Dummies -- 

please, please excuse my vocabulary and the grammatical errors.

So, Hi again~

I hit my laptop as soon as finished cleaning up upon I arriving at home -

it's 1 am here and I just came back from watching 'Ocean's 8' - yeah that movie about bunch of female thieves.

(yes, it's Ramadhan and I could've doing i'tikaf, but my cycle force me not to :( )

No it's not something to be proud of (to be home at 1 am, driving alone and I was violating some traffic rule, oops) but, I just need to write these down  here to remind future me -- who might had mood swings, slight depression or the same old problems: insecurities.

So

The movie could just be a 'female version ocean series' (I always love Ocean 11-13 tho) like what people have predicted -  but what aspire me was the girl power spirit and taking vengeance upon your ex to the next level (it's not like I have an ex that needs some kick in the butt - but I can say I encounter some similar situation - I have sort of hatters).

All along the movie what's on my mind was,'Which should I go next? What things should I learn next (insert: considering of going back to university to pursue another degree). I want to go to New York (tbh I've never wanted to go to NY, but I just changed my mind: I want to go see Metropolitan Museum of Art where Met Gala happens. Ok). And...I want to learn how to negotiate - no - more like I must learn how to negotiate. 

My Unrequited Love

So , I was here going to rant about

how two days ago I was awaken

and I feel like what I need the most rn is affection

well, put that aside

because I've tried to taking care of it

While browsing for this post's picture

I was like, "wow! it's November already and it's going to end soon...And 2018 is coming fast"

and I was thinking, I am still thinking about it.

What I've done so far...

Though I've been working in some company with a'global environment'

I've went to Japan, and been to Shibuya and Tokyo Disneyland

or I've been to Holy Land

(and insert 'watching BTS concert' overseas, although I almost got killed)

this year...

It seems like my truest dream are still still far away

it's so frustrating, I feel like I am actually on an 'unrequited love' situation

 ...

 

 ***

 By the way during my flight to Holy Land

I got a chance to watch these movies:

Wild (2014)

Kartini (2017) : "Membuat Malu"

Kebetulan di Surabaya (dan beberapa kota lainnya di Indonesia) sedang berlangsung KIFF atau 'Korea Indonesia Film Festival' 2017 yang dilaksanakan di bioskop-bioskop CGV. Yang menarik bagi saya yang pelit dan jarang ke bioskop ini adalah harga tiketnya yang cuma 10,000 rupiah. Tahun kemarin saya sampai maraton dua film: satu film produksi Korea Selatan dan satu film produksi Indonesia. Tahun ini kebetulan cuma bisa 1 film saja karena keterbatasan waktu (?).

Ceritanya di suatu Jumat siang yang panas yang lalu, kelar ngurus VISA buat next dream trip (?) Saya lagi males banget pulang, dan ketika scroll timeline twitter munculah se-se tweet soal KIFF ini. Sebenernya mungkin apapun filmnya saya pasti nonton karena emang males di rumah, tapi takdir mengkatakan saya harus nonton Kartini. 

Sebenernya saya agak merasa jahat sih, karena baru nonton kalo tiketnya cuma 10rebuan aja. Saya sangat suka sih film-film (semi) biografi gitu (rasanya pasti ada yang di dramatisasi kan yaa), tapi sempat ada pengalaman saya kecewa sama film Soekarno (2013)...yang rasanya terlalu jauh dari yang saya harapkan, dan terlalu drama. Kalo ada orang yang bilang film tersebut bikin nasionalis, maka saya akan lebih milih film Habibie dan Ainun (2012) sebagai film yang membuat saya sedikit lebih nasionalis. Yah di akhir saya baru tahu sih kalau sutradara film Kartini edisi 2017 ini sama dengan sutradara film Soekarno. Dan film ini...bener-bener bikin saya...malu.

signal.

I guess there are no coincidences in this world

so

everything comes with a signal

it means

before something is going to be happened

there will be a signal

like when you're left feet is itching so bad /that it annoys you/

old people said it's a signal that you're going to go somewhere far

and 

stumbling upon

this K-drama titled 'High Society'

is a signal for me

to look up into my vision and my missions

the main character somehow remind me 

about this girl /me/

I still need to prepare lots of thing

I guess. 

P.S: The Drama got boring starts from episode 4

mood:

Woman from U.N.C.L.E

so it was a random Saturday nite with my sister, 

apparently mom went to another city, so we're kinda free :v 

I decided to go to a cinema, since from 3months ago I really really really wanted to watch a movie 

any movie as long as watching it at cinema :3

Men from U.N.C.L.E was worth it

because:

1. Hot Guy (with accent, with apron, with gun, with bike, etc)
2. it has 60's era as the time setting - SO VINTAGE

3. it was an action movie - which has been my favorite, since I don't know when

4. The story was a complete plot twist *or it was me who were to dumb to realize*

and

5. I found my new role model



well, you decide.

***

I decided

Victoria Vinciguerra as my new role model.

no no! it wasn't because she is a wife of rich man and live a super luxury life *with a price to pay*.

It was because she is a wife who is smart, graceful, ambitious, beautiful, stylist, and surprisingly a kind of wife who will hold her husband's dignity into the last drop of her blood. How inspiring~

how bad the husband is, it is his woman's duty to keep his dignity, it is his woman's duty to support him, it is his woman's duty to show him the right path *to be success*.

Reveal how bad he is means a woman is not any better - why decide to choose him anyway. 

hey I have a skeptical view toward marriage so...being wife is about those thing.

There is a great woman behind a great man, right?. 

 ***

and fyi that blonde guy is my current obsession *as seen on the movie*

*oh I don't know when will this starstruck syndrome will end*

a smart, stiff, cold, conventional, tall and possibly boring person (as a man) never fail to awe me
(plus he speaks a lot of language, and a effing good driver)

and ey~ I was enjoying their bromance;) 

this post is sponsored by my starstruck-ness and caffeine effect

Thanks dear Iced Moccacino you made my night

mood:

so darling~ let's dance under Rome's starry night ;)

and since alcohol is forbidden let's have a cup of sugar free black coffee instead. 

Cinderella - one of my unhealthy obsession -

okay first of all, I have to write this:

'Cinderella Story' is one of my unhealthy obsession beside cherry blossom (in term of experiencing it right on where is it),

so if you combine my Cinderella obsession and my cherry blossom obsession it's equal to how much Mojo Jojo (one of Power Puff Girl's enemy fyi) wants to rule the world.

***

and last year, probably around last quarter of 2014. I heard that Disney is going to remake their infamous cartoon; Cinderella, or they have actually at that time...and they will release it on March '15

AND HEY! IT'S MARCH ALREADYYY!!! 

I just need to wait patiently until the movie hit the local theater on my hometown.

~just realize now... is it weird for 23years old girl to hype over Cinderella *which she has been watching that cartoon all over again since she was 7* while girls at her age anticipating for something more mature like... 

50 Shades of Grey or Insurgent, ummm...

Cinderella has been part of my role model, I've been living for 23years *and counting, well.. hopefully* 

and she has became my inspirationzzz...

And I remember there was a day, I think it was 2-3years ago when I was in that 'phase' -- the emotional year, 'the golden year'.

if I'm trying to recall it... 2012-2014 was such a year full of things to learn, when I was there I thought:

"How could this happen to me" 

"whyy..."

"I just wanna sleep and never awake anymore" etc.

I called 2013 and 2014 as an extremely bad year, rotten year. But then...I might never be here if I didn't survive my 2013 and 2014, right? And I learn a lot of things. tho... I am still a major procrastinator *blah*

Maleficent - "Don't Believe The Fairy Tale"

so I went to movie theater today, and without any doubt I chose to watch Maleficent
well, have to admit that I didn't have a high expectation into that movie
I thought it was a - regular - disney movie
but surprisingly, I am...pleased with this movie

it's interesting to put a villain as a main-character,
villain
at least that's how people (on the movie) call and treat her

but before, I never knew what's her... motivation,
and from that point of view, I remembered certain people that I am considering them as a 'villain in my life'
that made me wonder... and wondering now, are they a true villain?
well, sorry my ego said yes they are

but that's not the point,// what got me interested was...
I learn about:

 believe the fairy tale >> believe your dream >> believe yourself

because I believe in Cinderella story lol

"how to face a crisis"

based on Maleficent's experience

any crisis,
I mean Maleficent
she was pretty much a heroin, her life WAS perfect, she was a fairy the strongest one that no one couldn't beat her, until someone took what's the most important thing in her life,

well, in my point of view, she isn't instantly become a villain,
but her revenge changed her
her anger and her sadness take over her 'true self' and it affects what's around her, and the worst it affects her aura, and Moors (the place where she lives) turns into a dark and gloomy place, when it was a lovely place...


so...
it made me think
deep within my mind 

1. how much you got disappointed by someone
you better don't hold a grudge,
bad words you said might be affect...
YOUR VERY OWN SELF

9 Pertanyaan -- The Raid 2

Jadi untuk melewati hari Kartini ini, saya memutuskan untuk ke bioskop -- buat liat orang pacaran, mesra-mesraan terus nyinyir di belakangnya,  YA NGGA LAH! liat pelem lah! ngaaa~

*apasih, sumpah ini lame banget*

yaa biar kelihatan gaul dan keren, sebagai anak baru 'twenty-three is my age', saya semakin butuh pengakuan dan pencitraan yang #terpampangnyata apalagi ini usia-usia minta dinikahkan (?) jadi 'pasaran' harus dinaikkan, memperluas ilmu pengetahuan salah satu caranya (sambungin aja, medianya lewat film gituuu).

 

Selca sama Mr. Syafruddin Prawiranegara sebagai Gubernur BI pertama, yaah biar nular gitu

sebenernya saya belum liat The Raid yang ke satu sih, tapi berhubung ada teman yang ngajak, lantas ada yang sudah nonton dan bilang aktornya gantang, yaah boleh lah apalagi film ini sudah mencuri perhatian kalangan internasional, sebagai seseorang yang pengen go international yah aku harus tau juga dong, nanti gimana kalo ada situasi kayak gini:

bule (dari mana aja): "So you're from Indonesia?

saya : "YES!" *nada ceria*

bule: "have you watched The Raid? OMG! THAT WAS AWESOME, I learned about silat after I watched that movie!!!" 

saya: "euhmm... sorry I never watch it"
 

MALU KAN!

jadi... banyak yah yang suka, komentarnya bagus kan, tapi bagi saya film ini ngga lebih dari film yang MENIMBULKAN BANYAK PERTANYAAN, dan semakin dipikir itu kayak semakin ngga nemu jawabannya, jadi jujur aja aku keluar ruangan bioskop tadi dengan perasaan kecewa dan penuh tanya, buat siapapun yang sudi baca sampah ini, mohon-mohon buat di bales ya, kayak yahoo answer gitu, oke jadi ini list pertanyaannya:

on a Rapunzel condition

so I was planning a movie day today but after my first movie I couldn't continue...

what if not because of I HAVE TO WRITE IT ON BLOG!!! *which is so much my habit*

and something came up... that I will try to update this blog every monday... since I named this blog as mondayinsahara... so I will alwyas post if I have a spare time...I wish I can live this spirit forever...and I wish I'll get a regular reader >_<

credits to : http://disney.wikia.com/wiki/Tangled

So what movie I had? It is none other than Tangled...
Such an old movie... hey!!! I am not that kind of movie mania, right, I mean most of my time occupied with hanging around *act like a popular person, when I only hang with same circle all the time* or read so-wasting-time kpop news and gossips ooor sleeps... or trying for something that I am currently fight for, what I stand for
SEE I AM.. BUSY... I AM!!!

so what makes Tangled become necessary as a blog topic...
It is...the lesson: which suit my condition!!! hah!!!
And I wish this post will inspire people and... so that more people read my blog and more people give a sh^t *I mean comments* ... aaah!!! That dream is far away to be true I guess ;__;

*snaaap* back to the topiiic!!!

What's on Tangled?

You know this movie is about a girl named Rapunzel...a classic tale about a girl trapped in a tower and then a bad guy save her... and they fall in love

but I saw it on other side... it matches with my current obsession... "Explore a  new world"

You know I am going to S.Korea next month for a summer school *well thank God I got a scholarship...sooo I can visit Korea for the second time in my life*
And since looong time ago I've planned to do some extend trip...so I will stay longer and earlier... and up till now I got no clue about what to do I've proposed here and there and asked here and there for a voluntary job but it remains no answer and exact respond

Sooo... I still HAVE NO CLUE!!!
what I learned from Tangled is... Rapunzel is just as the same as me... she have a reason why she wanna go *to outside world* and when there a chance she grabbed it without think twice... and she just do anything and doesn't care about any obstacles *it cost a consequences*...

So my problem is like WHERE IS MY CHANCE ;___; I'VE SQUEEEZED MY BRAIN... I've think about any possible way..to contact any people which could enlighten me... but up till now and it's like 2 weeks more to June... and I've still got no answer nor idea

But as I am... I've struggled for those internship chance *which I got it now, because I don't give up* 

I've said *once more* that 'I wont give up' I just need an adjusment plan, other plans, plans A-M may have failed, so I have to set plans N-Z or I have to get ready for plans A1, B1...and so on

Huhuhuhu... I won't give up (1000x)

The guy with the chance will come!!! I believe

And what makes me feel 'same' as rapunzel is... we have the same reason 'WE NEED TO START OUR LIFE'... if you know what I mean *you don't have to understand...let my imaginations wander... and I match it with my future vision*

BYE!!!~

Habibie & Ainun my point of view

today today today

I had a great great movie

*well, fyi actually I am on hard financial diet, FOR U-KISS !!! wanna watch my dear Kim Jaeseop from close, not from my laptop screen TeeHee*

matur nuwun gusti pangeran Allah SWT yang Maha Pengasih dan Penyayang *sujud syukur* 

...

I got free tix from Simpati, * not going to advertise or something, it's just I am sooo grateful*

sooo

!!!

the most important is like, what I've watched..

none other than this movie:

okay so I was so curious about this movie when I saw teaser earlier,

aktingnye Reza Rahardian cihuyyy abesss, sumpah mirip Pak Habibie deh *dari pengamatan pas beliau muncul di tipi*

from the beginning of the movie, I feels like going to cry, 

I dunno aromanyaa~ rasanyaa~ suasananyaaa (?)

but seriously, sudah terharu sejak awal...

sampai akhirnya...

memang inti dari film ini *bagi saya*

1. how to attract those kind of guy 

*Mr. Habibie*

I mean, this world is sooo big!

there are millions, billions, TRILLIONS 'stocks' of a guy out there

there must be one for me out there lol

kyaaa always have a thing for a smart guy >_<

so one thing I MUST CHANGE FROM TODAY...

is my fan-fiction reader habit

I mean yeah I do want to meet someone who had some background like... a fanboy

but

talking about marketing, politics or a biography about someone cool *while holding hands, under the cherry blossom petals rain in Osaka , fyi both of us love traveling or he works as a diplomat in Japan or any other country lah* are much more... flattering~

*ahayy sorry for the dramatic type and scene*

but seriously thats how I wanna live * but I'll give it to Allah, he knows the best for me*

 see Mr. Habibie said

'meskipun ganteng dan wangi, tapi kalo frekuensinya tidak sama ya ngga cocok'

THATS IT! I'll try my best, to have a same frequency of my dream 'man-from heaven'

after all ... I remembered this post :

POST APRIL 2011

dibalik pria sukses PASTI ada wanita kece dibaliknya

Bu Tien, Bu Rahmi Hatta, Bu *oke ini awkward* Michelle Obama, Hilary Clinton, Bu Ainun, istri Dicky Chandra, dan masih banyak laah~

dan AKU PASTI AKAN JADI WANITA KECE DIBALIK SUKSESNYA SESEORANG

*duduk silang kaki*

do I have to fix my manner and this moody girl inside

NOW!

* I guess yeah, even my own self got irritated sometimes*

 ...

2. HOW I DEVOTE MYSELF FOR THIS COUNTRY

'Ada banyak cara untuk mencintai Negeri ini'

ibu Ainun Habibie

I was so touched when I saw a scene when Mr. Habibie and his wife, GO AROUND THE WORLDS for a...diplomatic reason

thats how I wanna live, being around the world

but one thing I always asks to myself

how you love your country

how you devote yourself for it

what will you do for your country~

when I was in high school, theres 2 things I wanted to do, help Indonesia by these two aspect : economic or by diplomacy

I am proud actually nowaday I am studying in Economic major, but..

those unrealistic dream I had~ somehow...

I think I just need to fix my mission, yeah mission

I believe I've made a good VISION!

I am an economist *Islamic Economist* , I must ! have a good vision and sense of it.

it's just my step is somehow biased, what I want to do...

learn from Mr. Habibie, how he wish to be able to build Indonesia, when he knew he can made a good living in other country~ 

but some people still try to ditch him and broke his image...

whatever! I believe , genius is genius

...

lol 

I guess that's all...

feel free to put some comment~

aaah so saaad, I always wants any comment and feedback, 

BUT WAE THERES ALWAYS NONE, 

nobody read my blog I guess

*desperate*

kyahahhaha

oh yeah! 

BONUS

what irritates me about this movie

1. kira-kira berapa ongkos tukang becak dimasa itu, seriously, tukang becak masih dibayar receh

2. KAPANPUN ADEGAN BCL MUNCUL, dengan wajah lembut penuh kasih, seserius apapun PASTI KEBAYANG LAGU INI:

jadinya kalo adegan sedih, dan harus nangis...suka ke distract ._.

3. Dari mbak Dika mbak Mito Mrs. Indrakeyz *baru keinget juga* pertamanya anak pertamanya kan cewek, pas kecil, gede-gede kok jadi cowok? seketika perubahan kelamin, kayak yang lagi marak masa kini :o

confession of shopaholic in my point of view

so today, I had my 'rest day' since I suffered from a bad stomachache which I don't know why...

and I prevent myself from touch my laptop which may takes me to another long-time surf which will make me couldn't rest on my bed

so I came up with pick some DVDs to watch, which I usually just buys the DVDs and put it on my desks without watch it like for a years or more, since I'd rather get socialize; hang out with friends and family or simply have a conversation or make a jokes on a social-network, than spare like one an a half until two hours watching movies.

so the point is I am no a movieholic, boring movies would makes me sleep, 

but it just came up today, which I want to watch this movie 'Confession of Shopaholic'

lame choice? yeaaah this movie is like so 3 years ago, which I bet almost everyone especially who loves fashion or get dressed up have watched this movie, except me ~

than I am surprised that I got many values from this movie, which I'll share here,

SO HERE IS MY POINT OF VIEW for 'Confession of a Shopaholic' Movie 

NUMBER 1

Look at Rebecca she was unintentionally send a an article which made her accepted in 'Successful Saving' magazine, when she was actually going to send it for 'Alette' magazine which is a fashion magazine, and the worst, she have no clue about economic, investment, etc, which is 'Successful Saving' about. But she adapted well and she did it in her own way, which makes her glows and famous. 

So the lesson is wherever you are, especially in a new place the essential thing to survive is to adapt well and have an ability to read the situation, I guess it's okay to accept a new challenge as long as you kept the key 'ability to adapt in a new places and a different condition from how you usually live', if we can pass through it, possibly we will be more success than where we think we should belong to, cause we have our own formula.

NUMBER 2 

Don't spend something when you have nothing, I mean look! Rebecca stuck in a terrible debt, and it lead her to many troubles, which risks her ownlife, her friendship and her lovelife. 

It goes with anything I mean, for example if you have no time to relax, I mean when you have something to do and the worst it is related to deadline or something, then don't spend your time having fun. 

AND DON'T BUY A DRESS IF YOU HAVE NO MONEY, it will risk your friendship even your sisterhood

NUMBER 3

Family is your home, wherever you are.

when the world seems ignore her (Rebecca) her parents are always there for her :')

I understand that, other families would be different, but look at the bright side, family is not always someone who give you a birth or place where you raised, it can be anyone, it can be a girl which sit beside you in classes, it can be a man which helped you with your job, it can be the kid who sells a newspaper on the street, anyone can be your family, just ask your heart, where is the place you want to go the most when you're so tired and wasted. I believe everyone had at least one.

MAKE PEACE NOT WAR ;)

NUMBER 4

learning foreign languages is necesary!!!

see how Rebecca pretend that she mastered Finnish, when she don't, and in the end she really learn Finnish.

yeay! I realised that learning foreign languages is so important, someone who lives in English-speaking world would be so lucky, since they had the most essential languages in the world. And I am glad I am able to use English as my 3rd languages (?), though I couldn't brag that I am excellent on it *see how I messed with grammars*

and currently I am studying Korean, which I hope it will be as good as my English~ so I can use it for any purposes, especially my career

but I am also want to learn Japanesse, Arabic anda French so bad, kyaaa~ I hope I have enough time to learn all of that, I am getting obsessed

IMO, by learning foreign languages it will open our door to interact with people from other countries, which is good, it will gives us a new perspectives ;)

NUMBER 5

Luke Brandon is hot, yeaaah, a cold but sweet guy who understand us and able to read our heart, who got a good fashion sense is hot. <(♥v♥)>

NUMBER 6

British accent is always sexy *I love how Luke Brandon speaks*

but still he had the cutest Britsih accent ever

yeah it is AJ from U-KISS♥♥♥

credits goes to mysoonjjang @youtube

NUMBER 7

it's cool to live as a New Yorker and strolling around the streets in a mode, work in a prestigious company with a fabulous interior design, and smell the office *hah! I know it's not that simple, but I want it...someday*

NUMBER 8

KEEP FASHIONABLE ! STAY FASHIONABLE

yeah but everyone could have their own point of view, like Rebecca *the playful type* vs Alicia *the classy type*, both pull out the different style in a fashion, but both are awesome

NUMBER 9

Enjoy your live ... YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE! but please stay in line, don't hurt anyone... Life has it rules, I know, I don't try to be naive, life is hard we have to survive from any distraction... but please be nice

MAKE PEACE NOT WAR

it's a wrap

*caps may update soon*

so how do you think? any objection

or any other movie suggestion, in case I have to stay at home all day long~

just put some comment

HAVE A NICE DAAAY~~~ ^^
