The Saddest Part in Love Actually





Love Actually is a 2003 movie. When I watched it, In the begining of the film, I was like 'what is this?' but I kept watching and unbelivably I cried a bit in the scene that I made the GIF version above. That scene was in the christmas eve. It was about a boy who loved his bestfriend's girl, but the girl never knew until finally she got married and the boy was the one who recorded the wedding video which actually was all about the girl, not about the wedding. The girl finally figured it all out and nothing anyone could do. His bestfriend/the girl's husband knew nothing at all. In the christmas eve, the boy came to her house, camouflaging himself as a carol singer, and revealed his feeling which was so touching. He let go of her. He let himself hurt because he loved both her and his bestfriend and he knew that they loved each other, that they were happy together and that's enough for him. How would you not cry watching something like that?


A boy's sacrifice. sacrifice... SACRIFICE...
Sacrifice never feels good.

Never Been Knowing How It Feels to Fly

In Bandung, I rent a room. This room is fascinatingly facing the wide borderless sky. I often see the airplanes flying through the sky and in that moment I'll stand there watching it fly through my window until it truly disappears, until I can't see it at all. Why? What do you think is on my mind while I'm watching the airplanes flying? You wanna know? This:

"I'll be in that thing someday, flying to Europe."

Bandung Spirit



Today... was a long long day... Where was I? The Museum of Asia-Africa Conference.


Satu hal yang membuat saya kagum: Seseorang di museum itu menceritakan sejarah KAA dengan sangat lancar, penuh semangat, dan hapal sampai hal terdetail. Ckckckck.. Saya ingin seperti beliau. Ketika ditanya tentang sejarah apa pun, saya ingin bisa menjawabnya dengan lantang, yakin, dan tanpa terbata-bata. Pidato beliau tentang KAA menjadi pesona tersendiri bagi saya.

Dan sebanyak apakah dari kalian yang tahu bahwa KAA itu telah memerdekakan banyak negara? Satu kutipan yang saya ambil dari sang pembicara yang sempat saya tulis:

"Seorang pemuda Afrika menabung hanya utk bisa melihat Bandung, kota dmn negaranya dinyatakan merdeka."

Dan itu hanya secuil kutipan yang beliau suarakan yang menumbuhkan rasa nasionalisme saya. Tidak hanya itu, ada rasa bangga tersendiri yang muncul ketika beliau mengatakan bahwa kursi yang kita duduki saat itu, dulu juga pernah diduduki oleh para petinggi KAA, seperti Kofi Annan beserta istri, bu Fatmawati, dan lain-lain.

Dan apa jawaban beliau ketika ada yang bertanya tentang pencurian budaya? Bahwa yang harus diakui suatu negara adalah sisi genotif dari budaya itu. Mie adalah produk asli cina, tapi spagetti adalah milik Italia. Mie diakui sebagai hak Cina, tapi ketika mie telah dirubah menjadi spagetti, hak pun berpindah ke Itali. Kira - kira seperti itu.

Sebelum acara di museum selesai, ada penampilan dari band Sundays (maaf kalo salah nulis),

dengan bassist anak seni musik UPI dan yang badannya kayak Rupert Grint :D

pada awalnya mereka menyanyikan lagu Indonesia Pusaka yang bikin rasa nasionalisme semakin bergejolak. Semoga rasa nasionalisme itu bertahan sampai akhir hayat. :)))

Emma Watson, With Whom?


Ok. rumours all around. First ---> this Can you imagine her being Lautner's on-screen romance? No. Not even Blake Lively. Lively is far older than him, Watson is a little older than him. But still, it sounds awkward.

And idk why I care so much about this. I mean, just let her go, let he
r play with everyone. But no I can't just pretend not to notice. --There's no why.

Right, straight to the point, shall we?
(January 28th 2011, 13:29 WIB) @EmmaWatsonIndo uploaded a picture of a news. This news:



or if it's not clear enough. Read it here. Have you read it? Yeah? So what do you think about my twins, Logan Lerman and Emma Watson playing together in a movie. At first I was like "Siriusly?" and now I just can't wait to see the movie. Confusing, huh? me? :D

I saw some little birds chirping on the yard at my campus this moring. their acts and facial gestures were telling me freedom. They looked happy.











Too happy that I wanted to ask them myself:



Are you as happy as you look?

Do you communicate with your friends?

are you free?

Have you ever got problems?

Is your life as complicated as humans'? as mine?

Do you fall in love?

Do you have feelings?

Do you even think, birds?



I was just curious. And might envy them if they do feel free to do everything they want. Let me be one of them even just for one day. Let me fly just like them.


But then I thought. I love my life more than I love freedom. Birds, I love my family and my friends. Then I don't want to be you if in the end I can't talk to them anymore.


If you're happy to be you, birds, then I love to be myself, I love me no matter how screwed my life is.
