Percy Jackson & The Olympians: Sea of Monster... Pic from set!

Setelah gugeling (bukan guling2 ya :p), gw AKHIRNYA dapet bbrp pic dr set Sea Of Monster yg gw suka. Bagi gw, ada beberapa kejutan.


See? You know who this girl is, right? Yep, that's Alexandra Daddario, a.k.a Annabeth Chase. Notice the difference from The Lightning Thief?

That's right ppl. Annabeth Chase akhirnya berambut PIRANGG! Sesuai deh sama bukunya!! YEAH! ^^


Can you guess who is that big guy in the middle supposed to be? You can't? Mungkin kalian harus baca bukunya dulu ya. haha. That is, the one and only... Percy's half-brother, Tyson the Cyclops, played by Douglas Smith. Nah, kagetnya gw disini: kok Tysonnya adorable banget?? Sumpah meski bongsor, wajahnya unyu, haha.

More pics that I like:

Annabeth/Alexandra is adorable in this shot, by the way. Love it.

Look at Grover's/Brandon's face. Priceless. :D Oh, and Tyson's/Douglas's tongue. ;p

This is the best picture I got of Leven Rambin/Clarisse La Rue. :|

I have no idea what they filmed in this scene, but I think it's serious. Berdasarkan gear yg mrk pakai, mungkin archery? I don't know. 

That's all for now. And btw, this is their IMDB profile for the movie. Enjoy!

M, over and out. ^^

NB: Pics are not mine. All from search @ Google. :)

Perks of Being A Wallflower...

Oke, kalau mau jujur, pertama kali gw tau film ini karena pemainnya adalah si Percy Jackson (Logan Lerman), si Hermione Granger (Emma Watson), dan si ganteng Tucker Bryant dari Royal Pain (Ezra Miller). Gw pikir, wah aktor/aktris favorit gw smua. Nonton trailernya ah. #swooosh #keyoutube

dan ini lah trailernya.


Terus gw merenungi judul tsb dan trailernya. Kok... ngena banget? Langsung gw cari di Indo apakah ada yg jual bukunya. Sayangnya!

Ga ada. #krikkrikkrik

Hampir aja gw gegabah beli dari luar seharga 202.000 rupiah. #grok #jualginjal tapi gw pikir, kalau filmnya diputer pasti akan keluar lagi bukunya. Akhirnya gw buka IMDBnya tuh film. Mari kita lihat jadwal tayang USA-nya kawan2...

September. #gyaaaaaaaaa #taktahan #hoaaaaa

Desperate, gw cari reviewnya. Dapet dari Amazon.com. Gw baca review yang dibuat sama penbaca, bukan editor or else. Ini kopasannya:



I read The Perks of Being a Wallflower, by Stephen Chbosky, in April of my sophomore year at college. A friend lent it to me and I had read it within twelve hours. This book reaches inside of you and pulls everything to the surface. It is a beautiful and painful story about a 15 year old boy, Charlie, moving through his freshmen year of highschool. It is written in letter form to an unknown friend. Charlie is always completely honest, whether he is describing his first "beer" party where he witnessed a girl being raped by her boyfriend, or explaining masturbation and his excitement for this newfound "activity." Charlie is a wallflower who observes people and feels very deeply for the experiences occuring around him. His favorite Aunt Helen died in a car accident when he was six, and he holds himself accountable, and his best friend committed suicide a year before he began the letters. His English teacher realizes Charlie's potential and brilliance and asks him to try and participate, which Charlie agrees to do. He becomes friends with two seniors Patrick and Samantha and begins to experience dances, parties, the Rocky Horror Picture Show, pot, love, bad trips and sexuality. We feel exhilerated when Charlie describes his happy moments, and we are swallowed in pain when Charlie is overwhelmed by his depression. Charlie's realizations are eye opening for us, and we are so captivated and immersed in his life that his life and stories become a very real experience. This book is about moments, and being as much alive within each moment as possible. It is about looking around us at the world and the people and appreciating that we don't know what their lives are like, and the pain and happiness that they experience day to day, so we shouldn't judge them but accept them and appreciate them. A favorite section of this book, for me, was when Charlie describes the movie It's A Wonderful Life, and how he wished the movie had been about one of the less heroic characters so the audience could have seen the meaning that this person's life held. That moment is just one example of Charlie's amazing intuition. This book should not be limited to a certain "category" of people. I truly believe that it would be understood, appreciated, and loved by everyone aged 12 (+ or - a few) and up regardless of gender, race, sexuality, etc. This book changes you, if only for a moment, but you are not the same upon completion, and you become more appreciative of life then ever.


Dan gw nangis. I'm blubbering like a baby. Terutama setelah baca kalimat yg gw bold sendiri.

Setelah itu, gw membulatkan tekad. Gw HARUS punya buku tsb, no matter what it takes!

Congrats, Stephen Chbosky. You just make me your first rate fan. :)

Lagu hari ini: Angel by Sarah McLachlan.

Ini lagu mellow banget, cocok pas gw lagi pengen nulis... Buat pikiran terbuka, gituh. :) Coba denger aja deh, enak kok musiknya. Awas tidur tapi. :)

Berikut adalah liriknya... enjoy!

Angel By Sarah McLachlan
Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance,
For a break that would make it okay.

There's always some reason
To feel not good enough,
And it's hard, at the end of the day.

I need some distraction,
Oh, beautiful release.
Memories seep from my veins.

Let me be empty,
Oh, and weightless,
And maybe I'll find some peace tonight.

[Chorus]
In the arms of the angel,
Fly away from here,
From this dark, cold hotel room,
And the endlessness that you fear.
You are pulled from the wreckage,
Of your silent reverie.
You're in the arms of the angel,
May you find some comfort here.

So tired of the straight line,
And everywhere you turn,
There's vultures and thieves at your back.

The storm keeps on twisting.
Keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack.

It don't make no difference,
Escape one last time.
It's easier to believe in this sweet madness,
Oh, this glorious sadness,
That brings me to my knees.

[Chorus]

You're in the arms of the angel,
May you find some comfort here.


The picture is from here.

Enjoy!

A Glimpse of my writing this day...

JADI! Maaf seribu maaf. udah lama BUANGET ga pos. Silahkan hukum saya sepuas anda. Selama itu online dan bukanlah kekerasan fisik, saya terima2 saja. :D (sejak kapan dihukum bisa milih sih... emang gw maunya enak aja ya. tabok saja saya! #ets #tapigabisa)

Untuk apdet hidup: mau lulus nih. #CIEEEEHHH tapi belum selesai tesisnya. Duduts banget ye? #dhueng But i'm close to graduating. Wish me luck? :)

Terus, yang akhir2 ini saya lakukan... menulis. Mostly fiction. Yah, 5-6 cerita sekaligus sih... Tapi saya tak pede publishnya... #uhyuk But for my followers, I give you just a glimpse.

Oke, background cerita ini adalah... vampir. Yes, I know most of you would think, 'this is just another Twilight kind of story'. Well, mungkin iya. Mungkin ngga. Tapi, if you would be so kind, kasih masukan ya. Berikut hanyalah satu bagian dari cerita yang gw bikin... meski karakter utamanya mirip spt Bella Swan, tapi gw berani jamin nasibnya ga akan sama. :D Happy Reading and please tell me what you think! Kalau kalian penasaran/suka, komen aja. akan saya tambah babnya. :D


“Triiinggg….”
            Klik.
            Aku menguap. Kutepis jam beker itu ke lantai. Jam tersebut berbunyi jika hari sudah berganti. Dan aku tidak suka hari berganti. Berarti aku harus mengulangi lagi.
            Mengulangi rutinitas yang sama.
            Setelah lima menit duduk di tempat tidur, otomatis aku berjalan ke arah kamar mandi, lalu menyikat gigi. 3 menit kemudian, aku mengambil handuk dan baju ganti, kemudian mandi pagi. 10 menit kemudian, aku telah turun kebawah, membawa tas sekolahku, dan siap untuk sarapan.
            Selagi aku memanggang roti dan membuat kopi susu, aku memperhatikan orang tuaku, yang pandangannya tidak beranjak dari surat kabar yang mereka baca. Ayah membaca koran kota hari ini, sementara Ibu sedang menjajal tabloid wanita favoritnya. Aku menghirup nafas pelan, lalu perlahan-lahan membawa sarapanku ke meja, kemudian makan dalam diam.
            “Apa saja yang akan kamu lakukan hari ini,nak?” tanya Ayah, tanpa menyibak halaman korannya untuk menatapku.
            “ Ke sekolah. Belajar. Rapat OSIS. Seperti biasa.” Jawabku otomatis. Perlu diketahui, bahwa aku selalu menjawab seperti ini jika mereka bertanya apa yang akan aku lakukan hari itu. Dan jawaban mereka juga selalu sama, bahkan pada saat akhir minggu (yang berarti aku tidak akan ke sekolah).
            “Oh. Mmm-hmm.” ucap orangtuaku bersamaan.
            Aku memutar bola mata, kemudian meminum habis kopiku. Kemudian aku bergegas mengemas makan siang, lalu beranjak ke pintu keluar.
            “Lucille?” ibuku memanggil.
            “Ya?”
            “Jangan lupakan uang makan siangmu.” ujarnya sambil melambaikan lima puluhan dolar ke arahku, tanpa mengalihkan pandangan dari tabloidnya.
            Oh ya. Tentu saja. Uang tambahan lagi untuk membeli novel favoritku. Aku tersenyum miring kemudian menyelipkan uang tersebut, tak lupa menggumamkan ucapan terima kasih pelan. Aku bertanya-tanya, apakah ia akan pingsan melihat koleksi bukuku yang membengkak sejak aku memutuskan untuk membawa makan siang dari rumah.
            Sesampainya di halaman, aku sekaligus mengangkut kantong sampah dari belakang rumah, kemudian menaruhnya disamping tempat pos, tempat dimana petugas sampah kota akan mengambilnya nanti. Aku mengambil surat-surat hari ini, menyimpan semua yang berisi tagihan listrik serta air di tas sekolahku (karena aku yang akan membayarnya) serta memasukkan kembali surat yang berisi tagihan kartu kredit ke dalam kotak pos, karena Ibu yang akan mengambilnya nanti. Setelah itu, aku mengambil mp3 player-ku, memasang earphone, kemudian bersender ke tembok. Menunggu bus sekolahku datang.
            Itulah yang kulakukan setiap pagi. Bangun, bersiap-siap, sarapan, mendengar pertanyaan apa-yang-akan-dilakukan-hari-ini. Kemudian keluar rumah, mengambil sampah, mengecek surat, lalu menunggu bus sekolah.
            Aku memejamkan mata, menekan kelopak mataku kuat-kuat. Kebosanan ini benar-benar tidak tertahankan.
            Kapankah kehidupanku akan berubah?
