One Day
So I have watched it. So I wept my tears.
Have not read the novel yet, but I think watching the movie first is better because then you would not be disappointed with it. Heard the novel is way better.
2 people, 20 years, 1 day. It is a movie that shown about their development in life througout the 2 decades they have been together. What they do, the achieved, they’ve been through.

Menahan Diri
Merupakan salah satu proses pendewasaan manusia. Dulu waktu kecil, kalau kita pingin es krim, tinggal bilang ke mama buat dibeliin. Kalau pengen makan kue di kulkas, tinggal ambil ga mikir dua kali tentang kalori dan lemak yang bertaburan di dalamnya.
Tapi manusia itu bertumbuh seiring dengan umurnya (normalnya begitu). Banyak hal yang kita pengenin belum tentu dapat langsung kita dapatkan....

Feelings and Emotions Change
yanilavigne:
It doesnt mean that if you dont feel something for each other anymore, the love is gone. If love were only feelings, then there’s no such thing as lasting. Love can sometimes turn numb or even be boring. You just have to be patient ‘cause love itself is life. Not all the time you are in for all its happiness, sometimes you also have to give in to its bitterness. But no matter what,...

The Leap Year
To commemorate the year 2012, I started the year’s first movie with “The Leap Year”, a romantic comedy starring Amy Adams and Matthew Goode.
There’s this girl fly long way to Irish to meet her boyfriend trying to propose to him. She ‘desperately’ does this since it’s been quite a long time they have the relationship and according to the Irish folklore, on February 29th where the leap year...

Calling in 'the one' →
This is a good article on love-finding. I mean, it explains simply most of things that people are lacking when they try to find ‘the one’ in their life.
This article explains what we need to do rather than who we need to find.
It always start from ourselves than from anyone outside. everything come back to the basic. Love yourself first, be thankful for what you have, envision and make a plan...

My thoughts
I don’t feel the best tonight
I am thankful, still.
I talk much, and I want to stop
It’s hard, yet I’m on the track
I hurt some people with my words,
I’m sorry for that
I know honesty is good, but one have to be wise when to keep silent
I might a bit too sensitive
or insensitive at all of my words for others
I am imperfect, but I love all of my families and...

1. Signed a real work contract, and graduate from an internee toward a more serious status :p
2. Moved to this remote place, away...

CHRISTMAS, INDONESIA, DIVERSITIES AND LOVE
Christmas is the season to celebrate love and kindness towards the loved ones, a season to be jolly and happy despite whatever situation that happens. More than that, this year’s Christmas is the right moment to remind us that we need to learn how to share our love to each other, and how to embrace diversities that we possess within the country.
Indonesia is a diverse archipelago, not only in...

willingness to make ways, or create excuses
A quote told me that if it’s important for a people, they will make way to make it happens. if it’s not that important, they’ll make excuse. I find that is true.
the quote is actually applicable to explain every decission-making in many area: life, love, future, past, daily check-list, etc.
in a side, this quote helps me decide which road would I want to make in this life,...

Soroako's Christmas Song
by: Vimal Dholakia
It’s Christmas time in Sorowako,
We don’t have snow, but we have Matano,
It’s time to eat, time to drink and time to play,
Cika will make the dessert and the entrée,
We’ll drink anker and play drinking games,
And dance around the tree in conga trains,
Grandpa Amello will give out gifts,
To the rest of us misfits,
Then Anchal will sing I’m a ho ho ho,
Because what...

so I decided today
that I will be productive, no matter what.
I will keep myself busy developing a better me, and I will be thankful for what may come. One thing for sure, I will do it for a clear goal of mine. I wouldn’t call this my obsession, but dreams and accomplishments do make your life focus and planned.
I whined about ‘having no job’ lately, and suddenly active on developing my writing...

a not so good after taste
I want to feel hurt, but I can’t.
I want to cry out the tears, yet they just wouldn’t fall.
I thought I am numb, but I am apparently not.
I can’t think, but thinking is the best possible thing I could do in the mean time
How do I feel I don’t know, nor I could tell people what about
I am in the stage of confusion, but my heart still in its place last time I...

I'll be Home For Christmas..
Not.
I will spend my Christmas and New Year’s eve here in Soroako instead going home. This will be my first time spending this holiday season away from my family. I don’t really think about it much, though, until this morning. The thought was triggered by a tune that suddenly popped into my head, yeap from the song of “I’ll be Home for Christmas”
I kinda miss my...

Love
Love never fails. I Corinthians 13:8
A love that never fails! Hard to imagine, isn’t it?
Has human love ever failed you? I’m guessing your answer may be, “Yes it has—more times than I like to admit!”
I Corinthians 13:8 promises that “love never fails.”
Not God’s kind of love anyway.
I sense you may be so thirsty for this type of love. Those who should have loved you didn’t. Those who...

Movember
That moment when such depressed song like adele’s ‘someone like you’ always echoing in your head just because your friend sang it earlier was just gloom my mood a bit. :p
So yesterday there was this Movember event held for charity at Thiess bar, Soroako. The guys (mostly expats) grooming their moustache and beards the whole month of November and at the end of the month they...
