I eat, pray and love. Do you?



Talking about hobbies, I can't actually describe what my hobbies are. When I say I like to read, it all depends on what book I am reading. When I say I like to watch, I don't exactly know what kind of film I am interested in. Pathetic, huh?!

Lemme tell u one story. It was about a year ago when my English teacher told me to read an English novel (the thin one of course ;) and since that time... I started to love reading novels. So, few days later, I went to a bookstore and found this:


Yeapp.. Eat, Pray, Love. One thing which attracted me much was the word "Indonesia" on the cover of its book. At first, I didn't know if this book was about to be filmed. When my sister told me so, I directly grabbed the book and took it to the cashier. My reading mode at that time was so ON. In fact.... I have only read 68 out of 334 pages since I first bought the book until now. That's why I just decided to wait until the film is launched. Take a look at the movie trailer:





Aren't you, as Indonesian, proud that our exotic Bali island is chosen to be the setting of this movie? It's not chosen actually, as this movie is based on true story. Let's just be thankful that Elizabeth Gilbert, the author of this book, had an experience in our beloved country Indonesia, so the shooting must take place in Indonesia as well. Another thing to be proud of is that our Indonesian actress, Christine Hakim, also takes part in this movie as Wayan Nuriasih. Eat, pray, love also stars the famous American actress, Julia Roberts. So, aren't you proud to be Indonesian?

I have been waiting to watch this movie since I first bought the book. Unfortunately, my heart forces me to watch rather than to read the book itself. See ya soon after I watch this movie!

Jolie as Salt

Today is just another day I waste for not doing any productive things. Yeahh, again, my plan to finish all my school assignments for this whole week was only a 'plan' left.. I prefer watching movie to sitting n doin my maths homework. How diligent I am..

I know its a lil bit too late to watch Salt.. But its better late than never, isnt it?? I'm a kind of person who rarely watch movies, except the movie is sooooooooo cool n bein talked by ppl around d world. And the reason I chose Salt was bcoz I wanna see my fav actress Angelina Jolie! She is such a wonderful yet beautiful woman.. Though some rumours say that she was the reason for the divorce of Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston, however, I adore her for her awareness towards humanity..

Okay, go back to the topic. Just as usual, I didn't fully understand the plot of any movie I've just watched... And so is Salt. It was kinda confusing for me to get the point of this movie. Well that doesn't really matter, as long as I enjoy what I watch.. That's all.

First time blogging

To be honest, this is the very first time in my life of making a blog and sharing what I have experienced to other ppl.. I never like the idea of writing any of my life story into a piece of paper, or even blog. But bcos of my ICT's assignment, I'll just try to make one... Hope what I share in this blog will inspire you. Otree?
