top 6 memorable unplanned movie experiences

ok that sounded weird.
and it's 6 because i suddenly remembered one more and it couldn't be left out.
hey, its 1.20 am in the morning, give me a break.

anyway, here it is:
1. High School Musical 3

this post was triggered by this article of this movie, reminding me that we cringed to no end because of point #2 *shudders*. it got worse from there.

watched it with lalataya and nenek in our early collage years. was bored as shit after school and needed a 'fun' shitty movie to laugh at. sadly, this was our last resort. 

 2. Rain Live Performance 2009

ok so it's not exactly a movie, but so what. i'm highlighting 'experience' here, and this definitely was that.and more.

watched it with lalataya and chita after intense doses of 'tuhan' streaming and our spontaneous urge to indulge in more. would never forget our purchasing process at the dvd store. each bought our own out of 'fear' that we'd someday want to watch it at the same time and end up killing each other for it. 
and watching it with chita was the best (her deadpan one-liners worked wonders).
blacked out twice. after that we went back to our own rooms...
...but then litya found 'Love Song' MV. at 3am in the morning.

many t-shirt rippings happened from that moment on at future koreake sessions.

3. Burn After Reading

watched with haga kara and ata.

heavy, light, depressing, bursts of unexpected laughs, dark humor, and very--surprisingly--depressing towards the end, after the overall tone it gave us. 
all because of that part where we were caught off-guard (though it wasn't the ultimate highlight of the movie's intention, but still-).

brad pitt was awesome as hell playing a douchey idiotic but lovable character.who knew.

best part: "you fuck!"

'nuff said.

4. 3 Iron

out of all, this was the random-est.  

watched with pandya and kiki, both who, at the time i wasn't that close to (the others couldn't make it and me and kiki were bored off our asses). my first korean festival movie. fuckin disrespectful annoying ibu-ibu & bapak-bapak crowd.very beautiful movie about a guy who lives out in other peoples empty houses and instead of stealing stuff, he fixes broken items around the house as a sign of gratitude for staying the night. 

best part: 

                                       

(makes more sense in context)

5. Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy

watched with nenek at our kosan.

a random movie she had at that time and was surprisingly good but light(we were caught off guard from our first impression of the poster. we thought it was some boring sci-fi that we wouldn't understand). first time we saw zoe.

*bonus: after listing down this movie (which i haven't thought about in a while) on my manual notes, i miss-clicked this tab:

6. Shaun of the Dead

watched with haga ata and giri at haga's house one day after (high)school.

was stupidly funny--but a bit "..........." at times-- the whole way...until near the end they decided to chuck real gore shit down our throats. that was just...evil.

we were gloomy for the rest of the day.

childhood antics

we all have those unforgettable (or even recently discovered hidden chapter) childhood years that we're either proud of, can't believe happened, or just plain wish we could scrape said part from our history.

isi dong kalian tendy & lalat kalo lagi senggang! kapan2 kalo ketemu versi tulis tangannya buat koleksi eike~~ total point-nya bebas mo dikit/banyak.

boy's version of paradise/hell:
1.  my parents told me that i'm one of the poster child for hibernating bears. ayah even said that when bunda gave birth to me, i was so still the doctor thought i was dead. turned out i came out sleeping. one slap to the butt and i was bawling. 
(huh.explains why i hate hate HATE being waked up.)

2. pretends to sleep on most trips, so when we get home, i get carried inside.
(don't we all).

3. recently ayah told me that when i was about 3-4 years old, every time i didn't want to clean up my toys after playing, he'd put my most favorite ones in a (clean) trash bag, dramatically throw it in the (just cleaned) trash can, and leave the least played with for me. said my face of horror was a real kick to him. after i cleaned up then he'd return it and said he found them somewhere.

4. my first indonesian word was 'globok' (goblok). 
ayah got one of the nastiest glare my mother could summon. 

5. at the end of preschool year, they made my class (only.the others did something cooler.) do a girl-boy dance. enjoyed making the crepe-flower-paper-plate hat, repulsed by the dance, became "that-kid-who-cried-and-got-carried-off-stage" from my year.yeah. 

6. when i was 4-5 years me and bunda had a routine: at vitamin time, i get to drop them in her mouth. one day, bunda was doing her make up and postponed the routine, so i waited with her vitamins on the table. got bored, started to jab the squishy fish oil ones up my nose. shrieked with glee. turned it into a game of ''how far can you push it in then pull it out". at some point it went in too deep and got stuck. tried to pull it out by trying to flick it out with a pencil...it went deeper. waded over to bunda, "bunda your medicine went up my nose". she ran me to the hospital and payed for the most expensive 2 pieces of tissues of our life for $200. we never played that game again.

7. i was the smallest among my baby friends, so my aunties genius solution so that i won't get lost was to tie a balloon around my waist to easily  pinpoint my exact location between the 'ruckus'...in their tiny-ass home yard.

8. really loved cheongsams & poofy princess dresses as a kid. got both and wanted to wear eother one to the mall. evil aunties gave me two choices: wear them and stay home  forever or not wear them and go to the mall. went to the mall sniffling.

9. there was a period that i was exited for halloween but didn't really know what to dress up as. so for the first day of pre-halloween at my preschool my mom & aunts dressed me up as jack-in-the-box. i got pissed and decided i wanted to be a princess.

10. the next day they let me wear the damn princess costume. felt like a sissy, fucking hated it and i think i cried a little. nearly ripped off the jack-in-the-box costume my little cousin ended up wearing (that bitch).

11. my greatest childhood achievement: one halloween dressed with the most perfect costume ever, The Hot Dog.
which friends insisting that said costume is a different being altogether, ranging from  a butterfly, a banana and a peanut.

12. was the classic 2B pencil the next year. complete with the pink eraser for a hat.

"and this is how i broke something in my body"

(Gradually growing) Old people are so cute sometimes and I say that with love.
 
1. "Ndra, Bang Bugie (his cousin) kemaren uratnya kejepit gara-gara main golf! Ayah baru aja diminta tolong telp Bu Mamiek buat ngurut besok." 
"How old is he btw?"
"He's 65."

2. "Tapi masih untung ga kaya Ayah dulu pas kejepit juga uratnya, lebih lama sakitnya."
"Oh yang Ayah main tennis 2 tahun lalu ya?"
"No that was my dislocated shoulder."
"Wait, how did your urat got kejepit then?"
"Itu lho, pas dulu kita masih tinggal di Buncit. Yang Ayah lagi nyisirin Rolly sambil duduk-duduk di lantai, trus pas muterin badan pengen liat TV pinggang Ayah tiba-tiba sakit banget. I didn't tell Bunda for almost a week."
"Lah terus gimana akhirnya ke Bu Mamiek?"
"Akhirnya ketauan sama Bunda gara-gara pas bangun pagi dia liat Ayah ngerayap di lantai dari kasur gara-gara ga bisa jalan, sakit banget."
"Ah."

3. "Wait, terus yang 5 years ago-ish pernah ketarik pinggangnya sampe Ayah bela-belain pulang dari proyekan luar kota tuh kenapa?"
"Oh itu gara-gara Ayah ikutan main sepak bola pas 17 Agustusan."


(after telling the story of Bang Bugie to my uncle, Arlan (he's 43.),when he stopped by today)

 4. "Iya nih, I think I need her too, I just pulled a muscle yesterday playing basket ball."
"Wait, then how the hell did you manage to get here driving, ga sakit tuh?"
"Sakit banget, makanya dari tadi tegak terus jalannya."

5. "My friend has it worse tho. Padahal orangnya cuma main Tennis Gembira aja...eeeh bantalan antara tulang sum-sum nya pecah dong. Langsung dilariin ke Singapore buat di jejelin bantalan buatan."
"The hell..."

6. "Oh terus ada juga yang lebih parah. Lagi main jetski di Bali tiba-tiba kelempar, trus entah gimana caranya jetskinya terbang trus it fell flat on his back. Langsung dilariin helicopter ke SOS"
"Holy crap! When did this happen?? How old is your friend?"
"A couple of months ago and he's my age."
"Eh, ini orang yang sama ato beda sama yg tennis?"
"Sama."
"Damn...Well thank goodness he's rich then."


You just gotta love those cerita "opa-opa" yang sok tau~

  Before & After :D!

harlem beat #10

1. at some point the waiting has to stop.it's starting to kick me in the gut that 'at some point' is actually now you piece of garbage.
2. talking down on myself isn't helping my self-esteem. they told me to be nice.
okay then: 'it's starting to kick me in the gut that 'at some point' is actually now you piece of pretty garbage.'
how's that?
3. being sarcastic also doesn't help
4. can't help it. am already giving up on the human race that it's actually blissful
5. and now i'm just reciting over-used lines.love it.
6. inward is the nicest place ever, but also the most dangerous
7. being un-judgemental is one of the nicest feelings
8. green eyes are pretty but also scary
9. unexpected leaves are also interesting but shallow when expected nonstop
10. light-reading mangas that always matches current condition.hard.
and it's not even funny anymore. (today's was harlem beat #10 of all stories)
11. encrypting words obsessively and paranoid for others, to a point where even you won't understand a single word when you re-read them someday in the future

age of the arrow.

re-watched Disney's Brave trailer today from my "The Help" dvd this morning and remembered i wanted to post this thing:

so apparently 2012's movie weapon of choice is the bow and arrow.
maybe, maybe not though, could be just me being all sensi or something to 'trends'.meh.
but yes i understand that at some point it's bound to happen, so i'm gonna list it down just for fun. i promise. no sarcastic anti-mainstream motives.
seriously.
ooookay, so let's start:

1) Brave (film)

a friend showed me this.fell in love with her hair.aim to watch.

2) The Avengers (film)
watched.Hawkeye's execution was devine.

3) The Hunger Games (film)
haven't watched.meant to read the book ever since stumbling upon this years ago on fan-made crossovers with harry potter and percy jackson (usually hunting for awesome pic's on deviantart).intrigued by that catchy name 'Katniss'. only found out about the storyline when the movie came out this year.
talk about 'dedication' on my reading plans.hahaha

4) Arrow (tv)
remembered finding this while on a browsing rage after watching The Avengers.though sick of the over-used concept of turning basically anything into a more 'gritty' and 'dark' style--mostly comic books, because apparently comic books in general are perceived as 'childish' and 'geeky' (i blame most of the tacky costumes they come up with.ahaha)--i'm still going to watch the pilot.i'm a softy for superheroes movies.

5) Revolution (tv)
same with this one: the cast's look is so stereotypical as what tv series's promo ensemble poster looks like for the past years (...ok that sentence structure is fucked up. to tired to care now, i'll fix it later so shush).
everyone looks the same--good-looking and unnaturally clean & prim for this kind of plot. but i saw the trailer, and like Arrow, will watch the pilot (at least).

*all posters from google or impawards.com

i'm a sucker for these categories of food book covers (or book covers in general)

*from twitches > library.nu food covers ohcrapi'vebeensuckedin.

series of themes, background stories (history, duh)



that home-cooking feel


splashes of bold contrast colors



categorized, described details. ingredient spotlight
.

textures and stamp effects. ethnic culture symbol references.



clean/bold/sketchy illustrations.

bonus :D!

3 signs i'm (literally) being kicked out.

#1.

#2.

my food was done. my 'omgNASIPANASaaaa' appetite was at it's peak. no rice.
she did mention that the new kosan owner itu pelit mampus jahat(i'm even n on the mba's side), jadi stok nasi suka habis, dimana nasi gratis, was one of the main selling points. i wish you failure.

#3.

di.gem.bok.
i am currently in pursue of finding the little dick who made this possible.

oh and the bloody mba actually asked me to lapor that my friends' were over buat laporan ke ibu kos. i think she was going to ask them to pay, but i quickly brushed her of, and no pursue followed, so yeah.
my bad, that means four reasons then.
*sigh*

it started from croissant flakes.

Got an idea, a target finally.non college related, so hope I can follow through.
Remembered LIMMA bookstore.
Searched for LIMMA info.
Remembered that the book i remembered to remember LIMMA (nah lo) was my first inspiration to like/create "original hand writings" concept for books, instead of using existing fonts.
Searched for the author and found this:

*indo pride*~

Got off the computer and decided it was "Animorphs time" again.
Picked a random book.
Stopped at the scene with Marco & David.
Sudden urge to browse for "Tumblr":

pure.awesomeness.

Had a dream of Bali and how i hadn't prepare my ticket home then woke up disheveled, pissed off, confused, and delusional thinking it had something to do with my already fucked up TA.
Woke up in hysterical tears.
Went to internet for 'calming effect'..only to find my cousins' cat has died in Bali.
Not helping at all.

doggies, bakmi and dentist.

my dad was home for the weekend+ a couple of days off from work.
ayah home = chores and other household things to be fulfilled:

1.CHECK. ayah home = WTD (Walk The Dog -aya&ain)= pungut2 kompleks~

2.CHECK. bakmi.kenanga.BABI PANGGANG DAN SATEOHMAGAWD

3. CHECK. wheeled refrigerator base(?) (sayangnya ga muat gara2 ada CUPBOARD di atasnya.babik.)
4.FAIL. Duta Mas for ayah's car accessories.NO PARKING SPACE.gila

got some coffee at a small cafe near my dentist while waiting for her to come at Cipete (i forgot the name). impulsively bought this because of the pencil-sketched cover :3 (without even knowing who the band is)

5.CHECK. dentist!

(no, not because i like dentist visits, no one in their right mind would)
COLORS :D!

6.FAIL. light bulbs, hooks,and batteries......lupa.
meh, four out of six. not badlah (my dad's known for always completing his 'list'.so pure mid-bad luck i guess).

on the way home it started to rain, so last night was really adem~
oh, and when we got home ayah found the second Narnia movie so we ended up watching that (it was actually on my 'film sampah' list, courtesy of the really bad first movie, but turned out to be ok as a light movie :p)

things that i know of at the moment

• i've mostly accepted that my life purpose amongst my friends is to be the one who addresses the damn fat-assed elephant in the room. and to accept that they might not accept it most of the time, but unconsciously do the same thing to me (unprovoked by myself beforehand) and expect me to accept their preachings. can anyone say hypocrite? assholes.
• i understand taking one for the team, but taking one for the team then being bashed in the head by them too? i refuse to be their scapegoat.
  

• if this keeps up, i'm doomed to be an observer only for life.
• now i know firsthand why it's called 'seven deadly sins'. and it's utterly mortifying.
• that my method of writing may never be like those kinds that are singkat padat jelas. and i've (finally) accepted that i need the need to elaborate. so there.
• talking to a brick wall is, as we all know by now, pointless. drilling and smashing through that damn wall also doesn't seem to work apparently *sigh*.
• i hate taking advantage of anything. anything. even as a last resort where even the whole goddamn world knows it's essential to be done. i hate that guilty feeling afterwords. but after being treated as such? i shall wait patiently until a moment presents itself for me, and like an immature child, i shall 'shoot first, ask later' and cause you insufferable damage. and i won't feel guilty afterwords.
• what's wrong in being a 'nice' person? why are you making me feel as if i have to feel guilty for being nice? yes, i'm still adjusting in accepting that part of me (and you know it) so i'm still insecure and your actions got to me a bit , so why do it? would you rather have me as a poser and 'look up to you' as my 'bad' mentor? don't you dare justify your being insecure by putting other people down when your the one prancing around being a pathetic poser. it's just sad.
• i like slipping in 'hard' words in between my writings now and then. yeah sometimes it works, sometimes it's trying too hard, but this is just my way of catching up with my vocabulary. i do kinda feel like i sometimes have to live up to my 'byul' standards. ahahahaha
• a friend kinda surprised me by judging that 'i wasn't trying too hard' on regards of me explaining my school situation in two sentences (i haven't met this guy for years). my first reaction was to bash his head onto the table repeatedly. my second was a uncalled for self-reflection. did i just give up too fast? maybe? and the answer still came as 'no, no you didn't. because you know best when you actually do.'. so my third reaction was to actually appreciate his honesty.

today's list is :

• happy halloween!!!
• if i were still doing my final project, i would most definitly be wearing my 'costume' all day eating candy and chocolate until i vomit (costume: a t-shirt with 'PREVIEW TA, MONDAY' and wrap myself with a gloomy aura for 'decorations' to top it.ahahaha)

• in a way i can't wait to get back to bandung to nyampah, get 'rejuvinating' dvd's, and treat myself to a nice meal, but on the other hand i know i won't stand (yet. YET. am in progress tho) seeing all my friends and their final projects' preview and sort. i'll just try not to get myself into that crowd when they're talking about that subject, but when they do (it's inevitable usually...completely understandable of course) i'll just have to suck it up and press down that pouty little pissed off bitch inside me and not let my 'dark aura' effect other people and ruin the mood for everyone. so i might not be at their 2nd preview and support them from afar (tsssahhh)...i will be able to bare it. baby steps man, baby steps~
