Perahu Kertas - Bagian 2

After Perahu Kertas, unpatiently I wait for the part 2.  Again, I watched with Def.
 
It was as good as the first part.  A GOOD ONE!!
I cried couple of times, for the good and the bad part of Kugy - Keenan - Luhde - Remi.  Then I become more in love with Kugy and Keenan.  Become their number one fans.


By the time the movie launched at the cinema, I already finished read the book.  So yes I did compare the movie with the book.  But for me, I love them both!  The ending is even great!  Hi, Neptune, thank you for sending your two agents to the earth...


Update:  I watched the movie for the second time a week later. 

This time, I watched the movie by my self...  So dunno what the plan before, but suddenly my husband stop the car in front of Metropole 21 and asked me to get off.  Oh okay, I know what's the plan now.  I got off the car in a hurry and left the two confuse kiddos behind hahahaaaaa... According to my husband, Def dunno where will I going, while Qisha cried a lot, but then she can get over it.

The feeling is still the same.  The feeling is still there.



Karena hanya bersamamu segalanya terasa dekat, segala sesuatunya ada, segala sesuatunya benar.  Aku gak mau... sepuluh, dua puluh tahun lagi aku sakit kaya gini setiap aku ingat kamu - Kugy - Perahu Kertas 2

Saya cinta, selalu cinta, dan akan terus cinta sama kamu.  Kugy Karmachameleon, saya cinta kamu sejak pertama kali kita ketemu - Keenan - Perahu Kertas 2
Aku melepas kamu supaya kamu gak terus-terusan buat bahagiain aku.  Karena...hati kamu udah gak di sini - Remi - Perahu Kertas 2

Keenan sudah pernah ada saja sudah cukup.  Ikuti saja kata hati kamu.  Kemanapun itu.  Hati tidak bisa bohong - Luhde - Perahu Kertas 2

Lebaran 2012 : Just the Four of Us

Oma pulang kampung!!!

Right, cuman Oma doang, tadinya Def juga mau ikutan, tapi berhubung Oma perginya akan ikut rombongan "Pulang Basamo" keluarga besar kita, yang akan nyewa satu bis Lorena bolak balik.  Langsung kita kasian sama Def dan Oma kalo harus menempuh perjalanan 2 hari dari Jakarta ke Padang.  Walaupun Def bilang gak masalah, dia gak peduli hrs duduk di dlm bis selama itu, dia yakin akan betah, dia tetep kepengen naik bis.  Sampe mohon2 minta ikutan, pengen ngerasain naik bis.  Yah Def, ibu sih pengen ksh ijin kamu jalan2 ke Padang, tapi mana tega ibu kalo kamu hrs kesananya pake bis, gak ya Def, nanti kapan2 kita ke Padang, pake pesawat okeh.  Dibilang begitu pun gak mempan, sampai kita janjiin dia akan kita ajak jalan2 kemanapun yg dia mau selama libur Lebaran di Jakarta, asal gak merengek lagi minta ikut ke Padang.  Berhasil?? Gak tuh, dia tetep ngotot pengen ikut Oma #mendadakpusing

Eniwei, singkat cerita, akhirnya Def pun ikhlas Oma berangkat tanpa dirinya.  Walaupun qta tetap gak tega Oma hrs berangkat pake bis, jd kita beliin tiket pesawat buat Oma pulang ke Jakarta.  Yeayy!!

And, this is it, first time in my life, celebrating Idul Fitri without my mother.

Pernah sih, waktu jaman kuliah dulu, ibu yg ke Padang bareng sama Om Mel, Om Asep dan Om Ar.  Sementara Oma berlebaran bareng Angku aja berdua di Jakarta.  Tapi tetep beda ya sama yg sekarang, scr status udh gak single lagi.  But my mom is stil the best.  The BEST ever!  Oma berangkat tgl 16 Agustus, 2 hari sblm Lebaran, dan balik ke Jkt seminggu kemudian.  But as usual, she already prepared everything for our Lebaran.  Oma udh pesenin ketupat lengkap dgn sayur betawinya buat qta, udah siapin ayam dan ikan yg udh dibumbuin, tinggal di goreng aja.  Udh siapin juga gulai telur yg tinggal dimasak dikit lagi.  Sampe kue2 Lebaran pun udh dibeliin sama Oma. Oh, I love you so much, mom!

Otomatis ibu dan bapak ngambil cuti ngantor agak lama selama Oma pulang kampung.  Cuti 5 hari kerja, jdnya 11 hari dong termasuk tanggalan merah, mantap lah.  Qta msh sempet ngalamin 2 kali sahur berdua aja, tanpa Oma, tapi Bapak loh yg nyiapin sahurnya, heheheee...  Bukan krn ibu gak bs nyiapin, tapi gak tau knp si Qisha ini rewel dan susah bgt tidurnya.  Jd Qisha baru bs tidur nyenyak menjelang sahur, yg otomatis hrs ibu tungguin dulu sampe dia bener2 bobo, baru bisa sahur.

And, this is it, first time in my life, celebrating Idul Fitri without my mother, only with my little family.  Just the 4 of us.

Kita sholat Idul Fitri bareng2, pulang dari situ kita saling maaf2an yg sama sekali jauh dari kata serius, trus photo2, trus makan, trus silaturahmi dgn tetangga, bagi2 angpaw lebaran.  Trus sisanya tidur sampe sore.

Happy Idul Fitri all!  God Bless Us!

Perahu Kertas

Actually, Dee is not one of my favorite writer.  In fact, I never read her books before.  Dee adalah nama populernya sbg penulis, nama populernya sbg penyanyi adalah Dewi Lestari.  Bareng dgn teman2nya, dia bikin grup nyanyi, namanya RSD alias Rida Sita Dewi.  Tapi belakangan dia ngeluarin album solo juga.  Baik itu secara group ataupun secara solo, lagu2nya enak2 didengerin, mostly I like her songs.

Entah kenapa, pas lagi liat2 tweet2 di socmed, ketemulah dgn account-nya Dewi Lestari ini.  Diliat2 tnyata tweet2nya lucu2, then count me in as one of her follower.  Then she launched her new movie, Perahu Kertas, base on her book with the same title.  I'm not interesting to watch it at the first time, I think it will be the same romantic movie as other Indonesian movie.  Because of many people commented about this movie on her twitter, I begin curious about this.

So, I watch this movie, Perahu Kertas, with my son, Def, a week after the premiere.  This is not the first movie - which base on a novel - that I watch without rading its book first (let say the serries of Harry Potter and Twilight Saga).  Because usually when it comes to our Indonesian movies, I fall in love with the books first, then more interesting to watch its movie (let say for Laskar Pelangi, Ayat-Ayat Cinta, and The Firm).

And you know how my reaction after the movie over?? Hurry up to Gramedia downstair in MKG2, to buy the book and the soundtrack's CD.  Yes, the movie is so cool!!  Once again, COOL!! I fall in love with their character for the first sight, Kugy and Keenan.  I fall in love with Adipati, the actor who play as Keenan.  I fall in love with Dee, thanks to her for creating such a wonderful book and movie (she made the movie scenario by the way). The movie is so romantic, so funny, so sad.  The third Indonesian movie that can make me cry.  I can't forget the quot in some of their dialogues.  Such a beautiful words.

The movie is separate into two parts.  They alredy shot for one part and it took 4,5 hours film, so the producer and director agreed to separate it into two parts.  That's also another reason for me to right away read the book as soon as I arrived at home.  I want to know the ending hahahaaa... And after I read the book completely in 3 days (blame it the kids who always bother me everytime I started to read).  Oh I can't wait for the second part of movie! October, please come hurry! For me, the book is good to read, the movie even better, but the soundtrack is the best.


Update: I watch the movie, for the second time 4 days later and still love it!  And this Lebaran holiday was officially open and close by watching this Perahu Kertas the movie.  Yay!

Yogyakarta

24 June 2012.

Semilir angin dan teriakan Naura menyambut kedatangan Def dan Qisha di kota Yogyakarta.  Here we come, Yogya!!  Def langsung kegirangan ketemu Om Mel dan Naura, sementara Qisha masih malu2, dan ibu msh harus nungguin bagasi, sebelum kita akhirnya mendarat di kota Sleman, dimana Om Mel tinggal.

Whuaaa, datang ke rumah ini lagi, selalu ada kesenangan tersendiri.  Ciri khas rumah seniman ;  cat dinding warna warni, hiasan & pajangan yg unik2, jajaran lukisan, baik yg udah jadi dan yg belum.  Dan Daffa, langsung ngambil mobil2an remote control punya Naura, diikuti Qisha yg udah gak malu2 lagi.

Pagi pertama di Yogya, dilewati anak2 dgn saling mendorong mobil2an remote control.  Ehhm, kebanyakan sih Def yg ngedorong, si Qisha yg naik. Siangnya, kita pergi berenang.  Cihuy, kolam renangnya sepi, gak crowded macem di Ancol, me like it. Malamnya lanjut ke Taman Lampion, yg ternyata satu lokasi dgn Monumen Yogya Kembali.  Liat2 lampion yg dibentuk karakter2 lucu dan warna warni, sekalian wisata kuliner. Hari kedua, ibu harus pulang duluan, hiks, cuti cuman dpt 2 hari ajah.  Pulangnya jam 5 sore, tapi paginya kita sempet diajak Om Mel keliling2 kampung situ.  Menikmati hamparan sawah2 yg hijau, melintasi jalan kereta, menengok kandang sapi dan kuda dan ayam dan bebek.  Dan sesekali mendongak ke angkasa melihat pesawat yg melintas yg kelihatan sangat jelas saking dekatnya.  So simple, but the kids were heavenly happy. Setelah itu kita gak kemana2, krn Om Mel ada kondangan.  Sorenya ibu di drop ke bandara, diiringi dgn teriakan Qisha yg minta ikut.  Gak tega, tp harus ditega2in, Kabarnya stlh nganter ibu ke bandara, anak2 itu pergi ke Taman Pintar dan Qisha pun udh berhenti nangis.  One of Def's favorite place in Yogyakarta.


Nah, selanjutnya gmn kegiatan Def, Qisha dan Naura selama di Yogya, cuma bisa ibu ikutin melalui laporan Om Mel dan sms-an sama si Def.  Ternyata Def berhasil ngajak Om Mel dan Naura nonton film "Ambilkan Bulan", yg akhirnya mjd salah satu flm (plus soundtrack) kesayangan mereka.  Sedangkan kabar gak enaknya, tnyata si Qisha sakit.  Aduh kasian si cantik, harus batuk pilek gara2 keseringan main sepeda dan mobil remote control sama kakak Def dan kakak Naura.  But the good and surprisingly news was, Def can ride the bicylce, with 2 wheels only! Yuuhuuu! You did it may boy! Dulu pas ke Yogya 2 tahun yang lalu dan main sepeda punya Naura, Def sempat diajarin utk main sepeda roda 2.  Tapi dia langsung berhenti pas jatuh, dia kapok gak mau naik sepeda roda 2 lagi.  Dan misi itu diterusin lg pas ke Yogya skrg (berhubung kalo latihan di Jakarta, kita agak susah nemuin jalanan kosong utk latihan).  Gak tau kenapa, tiba2 Def bisa aja gitu naik sepeda roda 2.  Gak ada yg nyuruh, gak ada yg ngajarin.  It's just about time.  Am a proud mommy heheheee...


Selain main sepeda di rumah, mereka juga sempat pergi ke Malioboro, naik delman menyusuri jalan Malioboro sampe Qisha ketiduran, mereka juga pantai Parangtritis dan  museum Prajurit, belanja oleh2 di Dagadu.  Oh, I wish I can be there....

Yes, Yogyakarta, is a good place for holiday.

6 July 2012.

Parents' Honeymoon

Since the first time the flight took off from Juanda Airport, Yogyakarta, the only thing that accross my mind was, well, ehmm, what would I buy as a souvenier from this Air Asia's flight.  Errr, of course not, I lied.  Although I bought an Air Asia's keychain and pencil sets which was very cute.  You know the pencil with the flight's crew on it.  I was sure Def & Qisha will like it.

Now, honestly, what accross my mind was, FINALLY, IT WILL BE ME TIME,  HOME WITHOUT THE KIDS, hurray..... (hahahaaaa, Def & Qisha will slap me if they read this someday).  It mean, no mouth to be feed in, no milk to be prepare, no lullaby before going to bed, no yelling and screaming and smiling at the same time, no little one who crying for help to go to the bathroom for their natural calling.  And the best thing is, enjoy my sleep, mean no need to wake up in the middle of the night for someone's crying, no need to wake up early and no need to go to bed early, too. 

Happy holiday, Def, Qisha and Oma.  Enjoy!

I find myself planning to clean up my room, Def's room, clean up the cupboards, clean up the kitchen, clean up the livingroom, clean up everything.  While's Oma already make sure that me and my husband will not be suffering from hunger.  Oma already prepared some pre-cook meals, so I only have to heat it a few minutes when I arrived from the office.  Thank you, Oma, for everything.  But we will have dinner outside everyday, because I never go home right away after office hour.  Me and my husband always meet up in a mall for a dinner, hahahaaaa...  I find myself going to the malls everyday after office over.  And for the weekend, we go out together before lunch.  Having our lunch outside, then watch the movie, then shopping, then dinner, then go home.  We did this everyday.  Everyday during the kids and Oma were in holiday.

Please don't ask me whether I miss them.

I MISS THEM LIKE CRAZY.  I MISS MY KIDS EVERY SINGLE DAY.

But if I keep thinking of them, our connection will speak, they will not feel comfortable during their holiday.  That's what we name it as a bonding between mommy and children. Between me, Def and Qisha.

So, please let me enjoy this me time, this parent's honeymoon :)
