Be warned that this blog contains a lot of extreme gushing about things that I find worth gushing for esp. movies, novels, music, fashion, design, art and all things related. Cheers!"

<b>5 Twisted stars!</b></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px;">

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; min-height: 15px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">This book. Is not perfect. Then why the 5 star? Let me tell ya. Mr. Shusterman here, is an evil genius. He's managed to create a twisted world full of twisted people with a twisted mind and behaviour. Twisted. And I love me a twisted story. I love me a twisted characters. Call me a psycho :p</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; min-height: 15px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">So. I think, the only thing that bothers me the most is the romance. The romance is just. <u>Awkward</u>. That's the best way to put it I guess. Their convos weren't awkward. It's just that the way it was developed. The next thing we know, they kissed. They just.. Kissed. And then the chapter ends abruptly. I got the impression that Shusterman didn't have much time to think about the romance plot. He focused on the whole other things. Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying it was bad. In fact, it's exactly my point. I just think that the romance aspect was treated like he didn't know what else to do about it so here it goes. It would be better if there wasn't any romance at all, for me personally. (though I love to see them together they're such strong characters and they kinda complete each other.)</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; min-height: 15px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">But HECK.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; min-height: 15px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">This book ROCKS. This book will change you. You will think about life. It's mind fuck, really. You will question everything. I was emotionally drained. It will touch you. You will be symphatetic toward ALL of the characters. Even for the bad guy. Just read this book it was BRILLIANT. It was so realistic that I actually think we actually live in that twisted world. This book is not just about survival. It's about love, choices, decision, compassion, moral, and any other things.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; min-height: 15px;">

<div style="font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">The switch between POVs did not bother me at all. It was handled so perfectly well. I know a lot of other reviewers found it annoying. But I just think that it was really necessary. And it makes us easy to understand what is going on through several POVs.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">

JUST FOUND OUT HOW TO POST GIF ON BLOGGER YAAAAASSSS YASSSSSSSSSSeucinrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12848841084212353858noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804010868227158316.post-63298288134234481752014-05-21T03:45:00.001-07:002014-05-21T03:45:43.171-07:00Book Review: Shadow & Bone by Leigh Bardugo<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I was so thrilled when I heard of this book being praised by several other reviewers that I followed. I believe in you guys. and I've always wanted to read a book that was set in Russia. I always found the chilly, cold, snowy weather and the dark, gloomy background extremely exquisite. and I thought, I think imma give it a go. <br><br>Turns out. <br><br>It was not as thrilling as I had expected.<br>I was on Tumblr the other day and searched for Shadow & Bone, looking at some of the beautiful fan arts there and judging by the visual and quotes, I really think I might fall in LOVE this book. Just give me a good, heartfelt romance, a bunch of action here and there, solid world-building and I'll be fine. Certainly I am not that hard to please (ha-ha).<br><br>The Characters<br><br>I just CAN'T stand the heroine. She did get better towards the end, at least there was a character development, but idk I don't think I can relate to her right from the start when she talks about her 'ugly' looks all the time. why is that even an issue here? You've got another things to worry about aside from your looks, c'mon. And her interaction with Mal. I just can't see them as a romantically involved couple, ya know? It felt more like a brother and sister relationship. The kiss didn't happen up until approx. 1/4 of the book left, and when it happened I was like, "no, wait. where did that come from?" I know Alina always whined and whined about Mal ALL THE TIME, but that whining is not going anywhere near my 'believable romance' meter. All of the sudden Mal was like, "Finally, I see you, Let me kiss you." <br>No.<br><br>I SHIP ALINA AND THE DARKLING THO. (UGH, yes, it was a love triangle *sigh*)<br>Because right from the start, we get to find him rescuing her and her interactions with him is all we've got instead of Mal. We only get glimpses of their (Alina-Mal) past, when they were still kids, they only have each other crap blahblahblah so Alina loves him to death blahblah I could give a shit about that. <br><br>I was giddy with excitement everytime The Darkling uses his power oohh. I love The Darkling. I knew it from the very start I would fell for this character. I love me some dark/villain-y characters, I've always drawn to them in a weird way :3 Mal was just too boring for my liking. But there are many many others who also ship Alina-Mal so I think it's just me.<br><br>The Plot<br><br>I love how the book started up until Alina was brought to the kingdom (forgot the name). The life in the kingdom was just not so eventful and a bit dragging. it was just a series of Alina thinking she was the ugliest around, Genya the beautiful one, whining about Mal, her goddamn blue kefta, and a lots of practice of her summoning the light (Alina is apparently the sun-summoner who's going to destroy the Shadow Fold but she wasn't strong enough and in needs of an amplifier to make her stronger.) then there was the ending. it was a huge plot twist that I found myself finally squealing "finally, something happened!". <br><br>The Setting/World-building<br><br>I love love LOVE the dark and chilly Russia, it was gloomy, nice and snowy. I love the sinister feeling I got when I read a book, and this book kinda gives me that (tho I still think the action and thrills aren't enough) I don't have a problem with the world building also. Leigh Bardugo has managed to create a new world that I would love to delved into.<br><br>Overall<br><br>- so it was like this. I love the 1/3 of the book, I found the middle of the book boring and lack of action and too uneventful for my liking, and the end of the book was okay. <br>- I still don't like Alina for being whiny for almost the entire of the book.<br>- I found Mal boring and their relationship should be maintain as siblings instead of romantic couple.<br>- I love The Darkling.<br>- I love the fantasy aspect of this book.<br><br>I'll definitely look for the sequel because of The Darkling and I do hope there will be a lot of action and stuff. Fingerscrossed. I do hope it would get better because I was fairly disappointed with this one. </span>eucinrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12848841084212353858noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804010868227158316.post-55492149627796555822014-05-13T11:25:00.001-07:002014-05-13T11:25:35.830-07:00Channing Tatum as Gambit<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOxpvBVdR2Sw-kK4dswqtsN9SiVUQiNwwTLBbJaPXJSGFKsHxaK8K7GiyGV3pfkt97PxHH-sYqZwZBfsaxQNC_uotdcT4zgwF9WethMLNGc2t3tzA4axwBlTEkZEooIqZqjXF_LPaBYfM/s640/blogger-image--2048113882.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOxpvBVdR2Sw-kK4dswqtsN9SiVUQiNwwTLBbJaPXJSGFKsHxaK8K7GiyGV3pfkt97PxHH-sYqZwZBfsaxQNC_uotdcT4zgwF9WethMLNGc2t3tzA4axwBlTEkZEooIqZqjXF_LPaBYfM/s640/blogger-image--2048113882.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Nopenopenope.

My sister has gone on and on and on about the new Sherlock this past few days and it kinda makes me go "ughh.. Okay, okay I surrender bring it on.."</span><br />
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Just so you know, she have already watched the show right from the BBC website on Jan 1st.. She practically sat in front of her PC, waiting for it and then watch it streaming.. Obviously she's more of a 'big fan' than me.. Probably hundreds of times 'bigger'....</span><br />
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">So this is my thought on the new Sherlock hashtag SherlockLives hashtag YAY hashtag johnlock hashtag finallyivebeenwaitingforthisforfartoolong hashtag sherlockBBC hashtag benedictcumberbatch hashtag... Okayillshutupnowyougetthepicture.</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I'll divide this post into several sections.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">The Reunion</span></b></div>
<div>
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div>
<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">With John Watson</span></i></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I need to get it out of my system... *takes a deep breath* wait for it... </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">IT WAS NOT. BROMANCE. IT WAS ROMANCE.</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">There.. I said it..</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">My Goodness, they didn't behave like a 'normal' friendship couple.. There's more to them goddamnit! I know that John made it perfectly clear by saying 'I am not gay', but uh... C'mon people.. I just don't know how they (Benny and Martin) did it. They both looked and acted like a real gentlemen but somehow I still can't help but sense the 'sexual' tension between them... Okay maybe 'sexual' is slightly exaggerating but I really don't know what's the correct word to describe their friendship... (Or relationship *cough* *cough*) </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Anyways. Enough about the romancey thing, I'll let you judge them yourself.. All I'm saying is, <i>THEY BOTH NAILED IT. </i>The cafe scene was just perfect. The way John reacted was just unbelievably felt <i>real</i> and just <i>right</i>. </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">He had a terrible past that one could have possibly imagine.. You know, him being a soldier, the war and stuff.. That changes him in a way that could be best described as traumatic. Now <i>that </i>is how I'd imagined someone who's been betrayed for the past two years would've acted. It was all so believable and not made up. Basically, Martin really did shine on this episode, I'd give him that. Benedict too, didn't disappoint being the absolute arse the man he (Sherlock) is. But at the same time, we can all see that deep down he did really feel sorry towards John throughout the episode.</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">With Mrs. Hudson</span></i></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Le Me: "My dear Mrs. Hudson, you just made my day.."</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">With Lestrade</span></i></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Le Me: "Awww..." *sniff* *sniff*</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">The Cinematography</span></b></div>
<div>
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">The other major thing that immediately caught my attention was the cinematography. I don't really know about TV series directors or what they usually did or their habits and all that, because you could say that I'm a newbie for that sort of things. I've always been into movies before I started moving toward TV shows. So, I don't really know what they were trying to achieve or if this really does happen to all other TV shows or whatever. It requires a lot of observations and until this time I've only watched a few. All I know is that, this felt different from its predecessors.</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">The Now look a bit more <i>gritty, messy, </i>and, <i>shaky. </i>Whereas the 2 previous seasons were <i>clean, organized, beautiful </i>and <i>slow.</i> </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I personally prefer the first 2 seasons to this one. Though I'm not saying that this is entirely bad.. It's just a matter of taste I guess. </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">The Tone</span></b></div>
<div>
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Sometimes it felt like a <i>Bond </i>movie, sometimes <i>Bourne, </i>sometimes <i>Mission Impossible. </i>How's that for a start? </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">This just 'not-very-Sherlock' I guess that's the best way to put it. </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">At first it felt like a <i>Bond </i>movie, maybe because of the iconic buildings of London and it shot perfectly like the latest <i>Bond, Skyfall</i>, that I almost had a kind of DejaVu thing. The shot showed the back side of a man standing on the top of a building with a blaring black coat, with a gloomy weather, the only difference was the hair. (Benedict's was curly and black, in contrast, Craig's was short-cropped and blonde). </span></div>
<div>
<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">At times, it felt like <i>Bourne. Bourne </i>was set in Europe, not particularly London as I recall, though I think he went to London for a moment there, idk. But you get the same feeling, the shaky camera, the-feeling-what-the-protagonist-are-feeling type of shot. And the chasing by foot as well as a bike and the journey throughout the city was just <i>Bourne-</i>ish, me think.</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">And lastly, it kind of reflected the same fun feelings from the <i>Mission Impossible </i>movie. This is no lie, there were several scenes that seriously had me cracked up. Like really ugly kind of laugh. (Ya know the hyena kind of laugh). It's a bit creepy. But yeah. The tone of the episode is fairly different from its predecessors. The Reichenbach episode really did give us the gloomy, dark, and dreary setting and feelings whereas this one gave us such a light feeling without a very complex investigation scene involved.</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Hmm what else to talk about? The characters? The plot? </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">There was this one scene at the beginning that shows Sherlock kissed Molly... I practically scream. Yes I really did that. I screamed "NO JUST NO JUST NO UH UH". In my honest opinion, Molly is such a sweet gal. She's kind, a bit awkward, but she always helped Sherlock in every way that she can. After all, Sherlock is an arrogant bastard without feelings, sometimes he's an arse really, but somehow, she understands him.. Maybe because she had a huge crush on him and loves him to death. There were several scenes of them together and got me think poor Molly.. Because obviously Sherlock has no feelings whatsoever toward her. For me, I personally think that Sherlock is wayyyyy too out of her league.. (*cough* because apparently I ship Sherlock-Irene *cough*). Yes she is kind but really though. I think she really has no chance to get Sherlock if her competition is Irene Adler. Not that Sherlock and Irene were romantically involved, but uh. Please, Can we really look back at what Sherlock had done in the end of the <i>Scandal in Belgravia</i>? Can you say FEELS? Can you say epic??? Gosh I really want them to be togethere they're like the perfect couple ever. Both intelligent both charming both witty both pretty both classy.. They're perfect for each other *dreamy sigh*</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Oh and, I'm interested about the relationship between Sherlock and his brother Mycroft that seem to be developed more in this season. Mycroft was briliant I love him already! The deduction was brilliant. Apparently He's as witty (as well as an arse) as Sherlock.</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I think that covers up most of it.. All in all, i think the new Sherlock has a fairly different tones as well as cinematography from its predecessors. I'm more inclined toward the first 2 seasons, but this one is not bad either. I'm looking forward to the last episode zomgasdgghjkl!!!!!?!!??!!</span></div>

Was. Relieved. (I guess)</div><div>Finally the long wait is over.. For 2 days. And then I'm.. Of course I'm sitting and patiently waiting for the next book to come out. Just let me crawl to a hole and cry.</div><div><br></div><div>First, I'm going to give my proper thanks to Susan Ee:</div><div>Thank you for not bringing the L word</div><div>Thank you for not allowing them to kiss in this book (because obviously we all know that their love is forbidden. Thank God Raffe's not acting like every supernatural asshole like the most of YA novel always did)</div><div>Thank you for being consistent on Raffe's snarky personality</div><div>Thank you for keeping the Penryn badassery</div><div>Thank you for the airborne fighting</div><div>Thank you for the Raffe's POV thing from the sword (that's freaking genius)</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you Susan Ee, I take my hat off to you. </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>The only major disappointment was,</div><div><br></div><div>I NEED MORE RAFFRYN SCENE</div><div><br></div><div>Oops I'm sorry I'm using the fangirl name. I mean Raffe and Penryn.</div><div>I think everyone thinks just the same. Right? </div><div>I just don't know how she (Susan) does it. Every single moment from Raffe and Penryn was just right. It's nothing corny, nothing forced. It just flows so beautifully and naturally. I can relate to them pretty easily. Just A simple gesture like channeling all the heat from his body to Penryn made my heart flutter and smile instantly like a loon. (And not to mention he's not even touching her.... Or did he?)</div><div><br></div><div>Despite all that, I have to admit that when I was on the beginning 1/4 of the book, I was all like, okay be patient.. I know i wasn't gonna meet with Raffe anytime soon. I'm just gonna get along with it. The thing is, Raffe aside, I was hoping that maybe she could throw some jawdropping moments like She did on the beginning of Angelfall. I don't know whether she did it on purpose. But really though. I even begun to forget what's it all about on the first 10 chapters. I'm absolutely fine about the world building and all. I know she wants to describe the World After and she's doing a really great job on that. Thumbs up. But idk It felt like it was a bit dragging. Even DeeDum didn't seem to look like they are up to no good. Though i have a theory. MAYBE, we've waited too freaking long for this book that we can not contain the feels bubbling up within us of Raffryn. So, all we wanted was just seeing them reunite. (Is it just me or?) I swear I didn't skip a word, but seriously, It really feels like I lose some details about some stuff because i really don't care about anything I was too anxious on seeing them to get together again. (Ok i think it's just me) And I don't blame you Susan Ee. That just means the ending of Angelfall was such a really BIG success that we were left breathless to found out what's gonna happen next.</div><div><br></div><div>But heck! They still haven't seen each other until there's 1/4 of book left. How could you do this to us? Raffe is not even there half of the book. We need more Raffryn seriously.</div><div><br></div><div>But apart from that, I'd still give this book a <b>5 out of 5 stars</b>.. </div><div>There's no other book that could make me feel this excited, this intense, this emotional while i was flipping through each pages. And I just love the writing style. It's <i>direct</i> and sassy. Though, I usually love the kind of piece that J.K. Rowling and Neil Gaiman have written. It involves a wide array of vocabularies I didn't even know existed and their writing are just so captivating and beautiful and fantasy-ish it managed to suck me instantly to the world they were trying to build. and so very <i>english (they're British after all).</i></div><div>Susan didn't write like that but I somehow found her descriptive narration interesting enough to keep me hooked for hours that I knew, I have undeniably fallen in love with the book.</div>eucinrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12848841084212353858noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804010868227158316.post-55541006500866942912013-11-20T06:40:00.001-08:002013-11-20T06:40:08.641-08:00World After Updates!<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_zCSV6uAg1xKty9E2J-Arq9SFSgEmS63ymwA-uNEcf1coeCVivbdiuBZEtNALkMr-pXZlfGP6i1N3AVo5f4zFfHuFh58L1Y56WytehP7bbS-buEyAnLmytELd75i_aHCD_pTxxzkAilI/s640/blogger-image-265714186.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_zCSV6uAg1xKty9E2J-Arq9SFSgEmS63ymwA-uNEcf1coeCVivbdiuBZEtNALkMr-pXZlfGP6i1N3AVo5f4zFfHuFh58L1Y56WytehP7bbS-buEyAnLmytELd75i_aHCD_pTxxzkAilI/s640/blogger-image-265714186.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Just take a look at the picture.

There is this crazy kid screaming and crying and kicking tirelessly the entire hour. Oh goddammit the poor kid doesn't want to eat! Stop giving him food grandma, for God's sake. If I was his sister I would've smacked his round chubby face *smirk* it's a pretty enjoyable scene one could find in a waiting room in the morning, despite the annoying sound of the spoiled brat. With Mansions on the Moon blasting through my headphone to my ears.<div><br></div><div>Anyways, I am observing the people in this room as I'm waiting for my Grandma to get diagnosed. There are approx. 10 people here most of them are middle aged woman. 3 of them, including my grandma, are wearing fit flops sandals. Now, how did my mum expect me to wear those??? It's comfortable, I get it. Do I look like I need something comfy to wear? That's the way to put it :p I do like comfy shoes. Problem is, I don't really like sandals. And i mean c'mon it's for mums and grandmas don't ya think? </div>eucinrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12848841084212353858noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804010868227158316.post-50330202563665843512013-08-31T23:06:00.000-07:002013-09-05T09:43:51.171-07:00Movie Review: The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones 2013ZOMG FINALLY.<br>
Where do I start?<br>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Berore I go along with the review, keep in mind that I have read The Mortal Instrument series (the first 3 books). Though it was a long time ago. When I was in the eleventh grade or something. And I haven't reread it ever since. I don't know why, because to tell you the truth, I loved that series. It was very imaginative and fun and easy to read and a lot of things. I read it in the form of ebooks. Again, I live in this particular country that doesn't really care about the importance of books, I suppose. So, back then, I was the <i>only one</i> who read the whole freaking series and I had absolutely no one to talk about the book. People needs someone to share. And I just.. I was alone *sobs* it was pretty hard, having to not talk about the book. It was frustrating. I want to discuss! I want to talk about them! I want opinions! Hello, anyone there?! Anybody? Guess not. *fangirling all by myself then* how exciting.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Now on to the review. I can not say <i>I do not like it. </i>Because I pretty much enjoyed the movie. It was a 2 hrs something film which could be extremely boring if not handled well. BUT (uh-oh there's a big <i>but </i>here). I can't really say I'm satisfied either. So, this is basically my reaction after seeing the first trailer: <i>shit. This is going to be huge. I know so. Gosh, glittery Magnus, that American version Moriarty guy, british accent, shadowhunter's badass moves.. I'm game. Bring it! *stares maniacally to the computer screen*</i></div>
<div>
<i><br></i></div>
<div>
Turns out, obviously, they've made the trailer so good it managed to mess with my mind telling me this is going to be a great film. You did it guys.. *slow claps* I don't remember I'm having such high expectation on the movie.. I didn't. Film adaptations are mostly a disastrous bunch of scenes that the director had carelessly tried to cut and throw some and cut and throw some into the film without really understanding the main issue first. I mean.. Why did the authors let them do that?!?? Please be there for them 24/7 because I'm seriously sick of having them ruined <i>some </i>of it. Now wait a sec, just so we clear, I am NOT trying to whine about how the movie isn't faithful to the book. Because honestly, I know they were gonna left out some of the part that is not quite needed in the whole film. Believe me. I know that. It is absolutely necessary to have changed a little bit this and that here and there. I am fine with that AS LONG AS one, it really adds more on the interesting aspect on the story. And two. When it is really necessary. Didn't see it in the City of Bones. Sorry... I know it's a big book. And the first one is always the tricky one. I understand. But as a filmmaker, at least do not let your film to be covered up with plotholes like a freaking SWISS CHEESE. please!</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
To be honest with you, I don't exactly remember the whole story. I've just had glimpses of some scenes that really caught my attention when I first read the book. So I'm not here to distinguish between the book and the film. I'm just gonna talk about the movie and a little peek on the book that I found most annoying and interesting to talk about.</div>
<div>
<br>
Here we go.<br>
<br></div>
<div>
<b>The Plot</b></div>
<div>
It started nice. There wasn't any random narrated voice throughout the first opening scene, explaining what happened and blahblahblaahh because I personally hate it when movies start doing that. It's like they didn't really <i>show </i>us footage instead of just giving us explanations in words or narrated voice. That's for the beginning. And for the rest of the movie, I'd say that this was a FAST-paced movie, and when i say <i>fast</i>, it's fast to the point of <i>annoying. </i>It was a bombardment of scenes, emotions, visuals, sounds, soundtracks, stunts, altogether that continues to fill up the screen for the next 2hrs. I found myself, whoa whoa. Hold up a sec. WHA-- wait..... Hmm... Ehmm ? Okay. *brows knitting* *mouth gapping* *finger bitting*</div>
<div>
It was like I haven't had any time to absorb the whole information and it already jumps up to a whole different scene. It was exhausting guys..... Or am I really <i>that</i> slow? I don't think so.. Because my sister did have trouble figuring out what the heck was happening. And she didn't read the book!! I already knew some of the information that they have failed to mention in the film and I don't have any problem with that because I should have known right? I've read the book. Maybe it's not the same for the people who haven't read it yet, I don't know. Or am I missing something? Maybe.<br>
<br>
<b>The Characters</b><br>
Yay<br>
Clary: I love her more in the film, so, good job Lily Collins. She's not as annoying, I guess.<br>
Simon: Let's put this in a simple way. I hate him in the book. he's a burden for anyone and involves in a love triangle between Jace and Clary. I tend to hate the second boy. I just don't need another cliche of a love triangle in a storyline. I've had enough of that, thanks very much. I love him in the movie, well done Robert Sheehan. (and he's freaking british).<br>
Hodge: yes. Moriarty. Need I say more? (he's freaking british too).<br>
Isabelle: She's okay. I wasn't expecting anything from Jemima so, I was a bit surprised on how good it turn up.<br>
Luke: He's Aiden Turner after all... (he's british).<br>
Jocelyn: She played the Game of Thrones..(british..).<br>
Alec: He's okay...<br>
<br>
Nay<br>
Jace: NO. just. NO. Jamie is <i>not </i>Jace. I freaking knew it. Though deep down I knew he's a good actor. but ehh, maybe the screenplay was to blame. The character seemed boring..Dull..underdeveloped.. whereas the Jace in the book is interesting, witty, has dry sense of humor.. It just wasn't working for me, sorry.<br>
Valentine: seriously? what were you doing, King Henry? I mean.. come on. Valentine is a one good character in the book. he's composed, graceful, charming, sly.. What they did to him in the movie was the whole opposite he's like the sadistic bloodthirsty bastard that don't have a care in the world, typical villain.. I kept waiting for him to say "<i>it's time for killing spree!!!" </i>He's not that!! He loves Jocelyn and Clary.. Or so I recalled.<br>
Magnus Bane: No. he's not good enough. Magnus is WITTY, COOL, GLITERRY, COLORFUL, GAY, and stuff. he's very interesting, he's attractive and frightening at the same time. I mean, you'll never know what's in his head. this Magnus played by Godfrey, is not interesting. AT ALL. he's a passer-by. he's obviously one of my favorite character in the book. and it pains me to see this version of Magnus. *curls up to a ball rolling on the floor*<br>
<br>
You know what, I don't even remember most of the things happening in the book, so I might be wrong.. But this is how I pictured them in my head..<br>
<br>In conclusion.....</div><div>I think it could've been better. I'm just fairly disappointed about the characters. Jace, Valentine and Magnus were just the main characters that needs to be interesting, attractive, and profound. I guess, They've just ruined the most crucial issue. I'm pretty sure the fans of the series were looking forward to see how their favorite characters turn up.</div><div><i>and. I'm seriously pissed that they decided to not include the motorcycle runs by the demon power scene.</i></div><div><i><br></i></div><div>Let's hope for the best in City of Ashes. </div><div>

D:Okay firstly, I'm going to tell you about the <i>boring </i>stuff I'm doing, chronologically from the moment I woke up for the past 2 months (approx.) <div>so here's what happened during my holiday. Typical day for me, I woke up at 11 (sometimes 10), headed down for breakfast, pull out a bowl, poured down the milk and the Lucky Charms (sometimes CocoPops. FYI: Cereal in Indo SUCKS. so I'm glad I'm having Lucky Charms) into that bowl, scarfed it down, went to play piano lalala rehearshing a brilliant song from Muse, 2nd Law: Isolated System, you guys should check it out, it is <i>amaze</i>balls, went back upstairs to my bedroom, make the bed, switched on my laptop, launched iTunes, began singing like a lune, wandered around the floor, mopping, tidying the room up and then... I usually sat in front of my laptop watching Youtube, mostly vlogs from my favorite Youtubers, Danisnotonfire or Polaandbananas (I hope I spelled that right) go check them up, they're hilarious, one is a ridiculously attractive sarcastic british bloke (he's the KING of sarcasm, lemme tell ya), the other is a annoying but surprisingly funny typical American girl, or just trying to discover new songs I haven't downloaded yet, OR. I just went back downstairs, watching DVDs, sometimes when I was in the mood, I'll go for a treadmill, burning some calories (yay) 450-500 calories, though I didn't know why I bother to do that because I'm getting fatter and fatter anyway, once I... unleashed the beast to gobbled up everything that's on its way *growls* *evil stare* </div><div>Burning 500 calories is like, burning NOTHING. You can't even maintain your shape, though I can't know for sure because I don't do it every freaking day. I didn't know why I keep doing that, maybe on the inside I'm just a big fan of a fit body? Hmph yea right. I'm quite done bitching about my body shape ever since I knew that your body shape was shaped like that from the very beginning, depending on your mum's body shape. So just suck it up and live on. There's nothing I can do about that. I hate being in the <i>average </i>weight and height, there's nothing <i>special</i> about that, but I daresay it's not as much as I hate being real fat or overweight. So. Here I am~</div><div><br></div><div>I don't quite know what's the main topic on this article. Ermm... *cricket jumps jumps jumps*</div><div><br></div><div>Hahaha. All I know is, TOMORROW. Is. The day. For ME. To. Go back to. COLLEGE. Yay...not.</div><div><br></div><div>Anyways, to conclude everything, I'd say that this holidays are the most productive holidays ever in my entire life since I've got my holidays. I remembered, when I was in High school I was DA REAL moviegeek (yes, I'm talkin' to you Harry Po-ah). I basically just watched 3-4 films a day. Yep, take your time to judge me. I know.. I know... You're lucky if you saw me holding a pencil with a piece of blank paper in front of me. Because that was one rare occassion, my friend.</div><div><br></div><div>On the contrary, this holiday.. I feel like I need to refresh my mind from college. All that design stuffs that was making me crazy, I need to reset my mindset, I need to re-brand myself, I mean, there's a lot to think about when you get older.... Right? And I did just that (and of course that includes desperately rolling on the floor, thinking, <i>what am i doing with my lifeeeee oh noooo, my twenty years has gone by without me noticing i am nothing compared to her and him and her and him, i wanna be like Dan, i wanna be him i wanna be her she has the most perfect life ever i wanna do this and this and this and this and that and this but i cant i cant and i cant what am i WHO am i i'm nobody oh god just kill me</i>). That kind of thing. Yep. When you've got nothing important to do like <i>college,</i> you'll seriously get this crazy tornados in your mind that intensely keeps on spinning and twisting tirelessly that makes your skull split into 2 piece you want to vomit. It's the truth, I kid you not. Been there, done that. Hahaha. </div><div><br></div><div>But yeah anyway I call this is the most productive holiday BE-CAUSE:</div><div><br></div><div>1. I've read more than 10 books ;-D</div><div>2. I've watched some of the movies on my watchlist! (Though there are still like, 91 movies on there. But I'd say that was pretty productive).</div><div>3. I took some photos of me, the 'outfit of the day' thing. It's my love for fashion.</div><div>4. I took photos of my favorite stuffs (trying to make my instagram looked a bit more <i>decent</i>)<i>. </i>Just a bit though. .-.</div><div>5. I've managed to re-arranged my bookshelf (yay).</div><div>6. At least, I've <i>tried </i>to improve my English by ranting, blogging, gushing, babbling, about anything in my blog here. It's got some updates lately, ain't it? Oh yeah~ uhuh~</div><div>7. I've managed to maintain my relationship with my so-called long lost friends. (I meant, my high school friends).</div><div>8. I cooked (nothing new. I love to cook. though, I want to learn to bake a cake but the condition right now isn't exactly the most perfect condition for baking so... Okay recently, the water supplies in my house just stopped coming from its pipe. I don't know what happened, me mum got so frustrated).</div><div>9. I drew some portraits of my favorite celebs, though I have to say it was a failure. It was a disgrace to humanity. *crawls to a hole and cries* Maybe it's just not my thing, I just keep on insisting that somehow miraculously I would get their faces right. In your dreams, Cin. In your goddamned dreams...</div><div>10. I learned the piano version of Isolated System by Muse (that was pretty cool :D)</div><div>11. Fixed my guitar. (Oh shit, I forgot to record some of my singing, I was thinking I'd give it a go, but well holiday's over *Boo*).</div><div><br></div><div>That's one hell of a list. Those are the things that I remembered doing at the moment. I'll post another if anything ever cross my mind.</div><div><br></div><div>SOOOOOO. Holiday's over. I've got a 7 O'clock class in the morning so I think it's time for me to prepare myself. Physically and mentally.

That is a wonderful, breathtaking, action-packed piece of an excerpt. Even if it's just a <i>freaking </i>3 pages. It was. Crazy...man. I practically squealed like a lunatic! I have never <i>ever </i>been this excited to read a book before. Not to mention it is not yet the whole book!! Just 3 pages as I've mentioned earlier. I'm not sure if I can wait until November comes. Goddamn it's a freaking 2 months away!!! Oh Lord I CANT! </div><div><br></div><div>Can someone please make time go faster??? or invent a goddamned teleporter or time machine? Or is there a mutant with this particular ability? I need you now. </div><div><br></div><div>I was hyperventilating</div><div>I was in shock</div><div>I was happy</div><div>I was squealing</div><div>I was nervous</div><div>I was swearing</div><div>(I wasn't crying though) </div><div><br></div><div>I was so filled with emotions when I read the 3 pages. My sister was all like "goddamnit, what's with you?" And shaked her head. I heard that. I did. I was just so preoccupied, not wanting to miss a single word written at that moment that I had my eyes stay glued to my computer screen instead of replying my sister's remark. My apologies, sis. I feel bad, I really do. But as soon as she knew what made me squealed like a lune, understanding creeped to her and she was all like "hahaahahahaha you're faingirling" and return to her work, whatever she was doing back then.</div><div><br></div><div>Anyways. </div><div>Highlights on the excerpt:</div><div>1. Airborne fighting (HOW COOL WAS THAT?!?!)</div><div>2. Raffe knows Penryn is alive (SQUEALED)</div><div>3. He was flying with her in his arms (I CANT I CANT I CANT)</div><div>4. <i>Raffe holds on to Penryn and refuse to let her go </i>(sigh......)</div><div>5. They're floating around above the sea</div><div>6. 3 other angels chasing them</div><div>7. Penryn is secured in Raffe's arms when he flies....</div><div>8. Raffe's arms hold tight to her waist...</div><div>9. Raffe knows she's <i>freaking </i>alive</div><div><br></div><div>Wait. Did I just repeat the same thing over and over again? </div><div>Oh well, nevermind. I'm sorry my mind got scrambled. But then again, I'm not sorry.</div><div><br></div><div>This is just perfect. I didn't expect the whole airborne fighting!!! I mean that was a total awesomeness!!! And the whole scene that shows Penryn is a freaking badass omg I just CANT. This is too perfect. An it's only 3 pages, I know.</div><div><br></div><div>Oh, and, did I mention how beautiful the cover is? What I don't really like is the font. Why do they change the font?!??!! It's a series. You gotta have at least the same font to keep the whole series all together. O, well.</div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoSqebKTUtMyq-blpcfV0b0eFpscpshYayuawGbgRDixxvba96_5bf1OkCeHyOq5o0H2ZSinGV5mb1B9giiViWsQ_AdHC-wLs2iXtAMELQYxDnNJK1gxAJvfP3YmJxltuJOp4L-sztE9w/s640/blogger-image-27822432.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoSqebKTUtMyq-blpcfV0b0eFpscpshYayuawGbgRDixxvba96_5bf1OkCeHyOq5o0H2ZSinGV5mb1B9giiViWsQ_AdHC-wLs2iXtAMELQYxDnNJK1gxAJvfP3YmJxltuJOp4L-sztE9w/s640/blogger-image-27822432.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Oh and btw.

Really?!I can't stand it anymore I'm just gonna say it. I don't know why did I get so pissed about this I JUST DO, OK?!<div><br></div><div>I just don't understand why do people ask to follow them back on instagram? It's INSTAGRAM for God's sake. Not the freaking Facebook. To me, this apps was made for us who enjoyed photography or being passionate about it and they are free to express their creativity and transform it into a form of photos. I don't know about you guys, but I want to follow who I <i>want </i>to follow. Is that so hard to digest? I mean, why would you <i>ask </i>someone to follow you back? You want me to stalk you? To <i>like </i>your photos? Or is it because you feel awesome with the number of followers you have? It just baffles me sometimes. It just doesn't make any sense! I mean, I'm totally fine if someone said to add them on facebook or to follow them on twitter or even Path because it is after all, a social network. To get you to connect with people and friends and whatnot. </div><div><br></div><div>I know, you guys would probably told me, "so don't follow them, what's the big deal?" You know, that's the thing! Idk why I felt like I'm a cold-hearted bitch just because I don't follow them back. Does that makes me a bitch?! Beause I really don't give a shit about who follows or unfollows <i>me. </i>It's totally their problem, not mine. If you like my photos then follow me, if not, then feel free to unfollow me. Even if we're <i>friends.</i> I'm cool with it. <i>We're </i>cool. No grudges here, Gosh, it's a free world we lived in. I hate it that I'm always being the bad guy. Apparently, not all people thinks like I do. </div><div><br></div><div>The thing is, I love photography. so, I'll only be following those whose photos meet my interest. Note this, I AM NOT saying that your photos are not great. Like I said, it is a free world. You are free to post whatever you want. And most of my friends just like to post the pieces of their daily life. I have no problem with that. I just <i>follow, who I want </i>to follow. And does this mean our friendship is over if I don't follow you back? Come on, there's plenty of social network out there. I just don't think that Instagram is a place for connecting with friends. I mean, I did follow some of my friends. But That's not even the point. I just can not fathom why would people ask to follow them back in the first place???</div>eucinrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12848841084212353858noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804010868227158316.post-42540283804896106482013-08-15T08:41:00.001-07:002014-01-07T20:39:58.591-08:00Teaser Trailer: Vampire Academy: Blood Sisters<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
<br />
Comment on the trailer ?<br />
<br />
(on Danila) Well, hey, Comrade.<br />
<br />
--end of comment--<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
HAHA.<br />
Not saying I was disappointed or anything, it's just a teaser. Teaser can really be a good thing though, if they really know how to make one. this one didn't quite nailed it.<br />
<br />
A great teaser that occur to me instantly, was the teaser trailer of PROMETHEUS. now THAT'S. how you make a teaser trailer.<br />
<br />
Anyways, back to Blood Sisters. we just had a glimpse, glimpse and glimpse of everything, it really doesn't say much. I can't and <i>won't</i> judge anything by it. (realized I saw a lot of negative comments on other website and decided not going to be one of those who comment things to upset anyone).<br />
<br />
I'll only be talking about my earlier expectation of how the movie might turn up, before I watched the trailer. SO. I read this series like, ages ago, when I was still in high school. Now I'm twenty, and of course as time passed, my interest on a storyline has surely changed. I used to love books with high school background and all the <strike>crap</strike> drama and stuff. Now I prefer more of a Dystopian setting in terms of my liking on picking a book to delved into.<br />
<br />
When I re-read the Vampire Academy, I was all like, making funny faces and like '<i>whoa it's pretty cheesy</i>. But you know what, I'm still OKAY with it. (unlike *cough*Twilight*cough* I just can't sweep my eyes through one page without cringing with <strike>disgust.</strike> DONTGETMEWRONG I don't like to be a hater. I really enjoyed Twilight, though, <i>only </i>Twilight, not the whole <i>goddamned</i> series. But after the movies I JUST CAN'T HELP MYSELF NOT TO GRIMACED whenever I tried to re-read the book, thanks to the cast.)<br />
anyways.<br />
<br />
Still love the series. There were many ass-kickin' scene and I love the relationship building between Rose and Dimitri. Idk why but I've always imagined a Vampire world to be <i>dark, gloomy </i>and bloody. I was kinda half hoping that maybe, just maybe, they would make the atmosphere a bit dark and 'gritty' <-- I'm not sure with my choice of word here, but that's the only thing that came to mind atm. When I saw the stills about the building they were filming for the Academy, i got this impression of the Gothic style buildings and I was practicaly squealing like crazy.<br />
I love movies like Daybreakers or The Covenant or Let the Right One in or Underworld 1 & 2. Yeah, that. Daybreakers totally had some futuristic touch in it because it took place in the future, as I recall. The Covenant is not a movie about vampires, but it did give the dark and thrilling atmosphere in it that makes my skin crawls and giddy at the same time. Let the Right One in (the Swedish version) was TOTALLY AMAZING, nuff said. It doesn't have to be like that precisely, what I meant was, at least it has the similar dark, gloomy and gritty atmosphere, not visually, but just the ambience, you know what I mean?<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I SO HOPE the film would be BLOODY <strike>and gory if possible,</strike> though I usually hate gory movies except it was really necessary.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
What's a Vampire movie without blood?</div>
<div>
<br />
<br />

Goodbye Bali!!!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Just want you guys to know, I've always got my iPhone with me the entire time (I guess I should give <i>her </i>a <i>name </i>because I got attached to it, like, the I-can't-live-without-you kind of thing) and one of the advantage on having an iPhone is that: I CAN READ EBOOKS. Yay.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Wherever and whenever I got bored, I'll just happily clicked on this genius apps called iBooks. I know I'm being dramatic (ha-ha. Thanks to Tumblr). But really guys, isn't it a great thing??!?!! I know, I too can not deny the pleasure of having to grasp and feel the physical books in my hands, but really, if you go somewhere, say, a little trip or a backpacker, you'll have to admit that carrying books around would cause trouble sometimes. And I was afraid to find my book dirty and broken and crumpled, oh, I just can't stand it to see my books getting all dirty and <i>undesirable. </i></div>
<div>
<i><br /></i></div>
<div>
Anyways. My love for Angelfall just don't seem to fade just yet. I always read Angelfall whenever possible. When I was on the beach, on the airplane, on breakfast, in the car, after dinner, in the hotel room before bedtime, all of the spare time you could think of. Raffe. Oh Raffe, lookwhatuvedonetome. No it's actually Ee's fault, haha.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
BUT OHMYFREAKINGLORD. WHEN WILL THE SECOND BOOK COMES OUT?! Is it NOVEMBER???!?!! I have to wait THAT long?!??! I can't. I just can't. I won't have any desire to live starting August until November. Oh shit. I've learnt my lesson though, to not read a series that takes too long for the writer to write the sequel. I mean it's just. Too long. There's too many FEELS. I can NOT wait that long. It's been so long since i read Angelfall for the first time. I guess it's in 2012. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Hell, there's not even a cover yet!!!! Just a teaser though. Cover in progress.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<br /></div>
<div>
Ohmygod. I just <i>know, </i>that this book is going to be epic. Maybe not as epic as <i>Angelfall</i>, but. </div>
<div>
I JUST WANT TO READ IT!!</div>
<div>
Pretty please? *puppy eyes*</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Anyways. I was on Goodreads and Tumblr, I was surprised at how many people speculate that there will be a love triangle between Raffe-Penryn-OBI. Ohmygosh it never occured to me before! Obi?! Seriously? Why would you guys think that?!?? I certainly hope NOT. And please, it's the End of Days people! Why would Penryn want to be caught in that kind of situation? That's just stupid. But then again. I gave my full support on Susan, even if she decided to make a love triangle, then I'm sure she could still brings up interesting ideas and details in her pretty little head than most of the authors out there that have failed to do so.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As for the conclusion, I JUST WANT TO SKIP AUGUST SEPTEMBER OCTOBER.. I just want to <i>read. </i></div>

This is my first time going here. Now I'm officially an Indonesian (I mean, what kind of an Indonesian am I, to never set foot on Bali after all these years?). My Gosh the beach!!!! I used to hate the beach because of the heat! I can't stand hot weather though I live in a tropical country. Furthermore, my skin does this weird thing whenever I was in a hot weather. it gets blotchy red and scratchy as hell. After all, I've always loved the rain (as you can see, the title of my blog). It's been so long since I last stepped on a velvety sand. Though the sun has mercilessly showered upon us with its blinding light and It burns our skin, somehow I found it didn't feel very bad. It depends on the weather too I guess. If it's cloudy, then hallelujah! And, it's not as hot as I've imagined it would be because of the <i>wind. </i>Thank God for the wind. Thank you Australia, I guess.<div><br></div><div>And the other thing I hate about the beach, is that I can't really wear summer outfits on that huge amount of light. My skin is rather white. Whitish yellow? Not Caucassian white of course. I'm an Asian after all. But still, I was called names in high school like, snow <i>white</i> and <i>bakpao </i>(chinese steamed bun). I was the white-est girl in my class back then. Haha. Beause of that, I realized that the white skin thing can sometimes be a good thing and a bad thing. I'm not gonna talk about the good side right now. The bad thing is that I can't really go out in the sun and do anything as I please without getting my skin turned brownish. It was quite upsetting when you look in the mirror and found yourself all blackish because of sun burn. And don't even think of applying sunblocks. Believe me, it didn't help. Maybe a little, but you'll get burn anyway. </div><div><br></div><div>So, I went to Bali and when I packed my luggage, I was faced with a dilemma, whether I'll bring the long sleeved shirt or just the light knitting short sleeved stuff that people usually wore with a bikini underneath when they were at the beach. And also a pair of trousers or a hot pants? And the answer is. Ugh. I went for the long sleeved shirt with the lightest material I have, and of course a pair of trousers. Remarkable. *eyes rolled* </div><div><br></div><div>I'm into fashion, you know. Therefore, wearing the proper outfit for every occasion is definitely on my dictionary. I am concerned with these things and it makes me happy too, to mix and match the clothes, accessories etc. with these particular material, it's just not <i>right.</i> Well, whatevs, what's done is done. The great thing is I still can enjoy most of my time there without getting sun burn. </div><div><br></div><div>With the great blows of wind, which i felt very grateful, when I took a stroll across the beach, staring at the beckoning sight of twilight, I felt nice. Like really nice. I've never thought on strolling at the beach could gave me such a wonderful calming feeling, considering the hot weather and summertime. Because I used to felt wonderful only when it's gloomy or raining at the time, with no sweat and the smell of salt. </div><div><br></div><div>It finally dawns on me, that, interacting with nature is a really good thing to do. No matter the situation. It's good sometimes to not be ignorant of our beautiful nature, created by the Glorious God. We must appreciate this tiny beautiful moments we've been given. Staring at the bubbly current, the bluish crystal clear of the sea, the varied colors of sea shells or coral or the softness of the silky seaweed. It was all priceless. It was such a great experience, one that I want to experience it as often as I can. </div><div><br></div><div>And of course, to stroll on a beach hand in hand with <i>someone </i>you hold dear, gazing to the horizon must be the greatest feeling ever ;) </div><div><br></div><div>Have a great holiday guys!!!!!</div>eucinrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12848841084212353858noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804010868227158316.post-20430992150575292382013-08-01T22:48:00.002-07:002013-08-02T07:34:25.713-07:00Angelfall Sneak PeekAs I've mentioned earlier, every page in this book is just magnificent. There were so many witty conversation between Penryn and Raffe. I'll try to not giving away too much, though I want to so badly =p<br>
<br>
I've got my Angelfall book with me right now. Shall we begin?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
P 27<br>
"If you help me find my sister, you can have these back. I saved them for you"<br>
"Thanks", he croaks, surveying the wings. "They'll look great on my wall."<br>
<br>
P 36<br>
"Where did they take my sister?"<br>
The briefest emotion flickers in his eyes, gone so fast that I can't identify it. "How the hell should I know?"<br>
"Because you're one of the stinking bastards."<br>
"Ooh. you cut me to the bone with that one." He sounds bored, and I'm almost embarrassed by my lack of stronger insult. "Didn't you notice I wasn't exactly chummy with the other fellas?"<br>
<br>
P 54<br>
"Rah-fie," I repeat slowly. "I like the sound of that."<br>
I clear my throat to break the tension. "Raffe sounds like Raw Feet. Coincidence?" That gets a smile out of him. When he smiles, he really does look like someone you'd want to get to know. Some otherworldly handsome guy a girl could dream about.<br>
<br>
<br>
And this is my most favorite lines<br>

I feel the sofa cushions being pulled out from against my back. Then warmth envelopes me. Firm muscles embrace me from the space where the cushions used to be.

As promised, this is the book review of Angelfall!!! The one that contains Raffe in it, as I've mentioned in the last post =p<br>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Angelfall is simply the BEST Dystopian book I've read so far!! It's written by the talented Susan Ee. This is her first book and it's a self-published book, which I have to say she's doing a FANTASTIC job. I really enjoyed reading this book. It's a page-turner, fast-paced, no-insta-love, kickass-heroine, it's everything good in one book. This book is just EPIC. I'd give it <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">6 stars</span> out of 5 if I could (ok, this is me exaggerating. get used to it).<br>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
I finally got the physical book YAY. Thanks to Kinokuniya bookstore Singapore. See why I have to read ebooks the entire time? Yes, it's because, I have to go abroad to get a freaking book. Do you know just how much money I must spend to get a BOOK?! Of course, I went to Singapore not just to buy books. But it sure as hell my first priority when I stepped my foot on Changi airport. I went to Singapore to watch <i>Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera</i> theatre. I've always wanted to watch the show, and finally I watched it in 2013. I'll probably talk about it later. Anyway, this is crazy. I live in Indonesia by the way, in this particular city called Jakarta. We got a great Kinokuniya bookstore here, pretty huge for me, but unfortunately, sometimes the book you were looking for isn't the most famous book like <i>The Twilight Saga or Harry Potter. </i>So, when I set foot on the Kino bookstore at Ngee Ann City, I was like. WHOA. wow. eeksss. It was the most exciting feeling I've ever felt on entering a bookstore. it was FREAKING HUGE!!! I practically squealed. It's just a room full of books, and the smell of papers and books, just. *sigh* it is HEAVEN for me.</div>

<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Isn't the cover beautiful?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I first read it in the form of ebook. and then when I got the physical book, I don't know exactly how many times I put it down, and pick it up, I just love to randomly opened a page and start reading that chapter. No matter what page I was in, I never get tired of reading it. It's THAT EPIC, guys. There's not a single page that I hate. I LOVE the entire book. every page was just THAT awesome. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I don't even know where to start. I guess I'll just give you some hints on what this book is about. So, It's a Dystopian Young Adult novel. It was set in the post-apocalyptic world after the Angels invasion. They have successfuly demolished the planet. Rubbles everywhere. The world is now filled with Angels, street gangs, and other dark creatures. The story focused on Penryn, the brave girl who is always looking out for her little family consist of three. Her mom and her little sister, Paige. So, The Mom is a little crazy. She's just weird. She said she can communicate with demons? and that she made a deal with one? and she carried these rotten eggs everywhere regardless the situation she was in. that's just weird. but interesting idea as well. I can not wait for the truth to unfold about the Mom in book 2 (YES, it's a Trilogy everybody). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The second character is her little sister Paige. She's wheelchair bound. Pity little thing. We still didn't know what exactly happen to her legs, all we know was that it was the Mom who accidentally Broke it. And maybe Paige is one of the most tragic character in this book. Oh it's heartbreaking, what happened to her. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
One night, Penryn decided that it was the perfect time for her to flee their place. Not their home of course. They've been running ever since the invasion, and it's just another hiding place she chose to shelter her and her family.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
That night, she stumbled upon 5 angels and 1 badly injured Angel. They seemed to be engaged in a 'dirty' fight. Five against one. Penryn didn't even dare to blink. She wanted to witness the whole scene perfectly. The badly injured Angel has a very magnificent pair of snowy wings. He was now crouched on the gravel, two Angels pinned him down, and the other one tried to cut off the poor angel's snowy wings. She still couldn't shut her eyes though the scene she's just witnessed was gory and unpleasant. The snowy winged Angel, now wingless, screamed in agony as the sword sliced through his wings. Blood splattered all over him and onto the asphalt.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Penryn felt the need to help the helpless Angel, so she grabbed the wingless Angel's sword that happens to be in front of her, it's surprisingly light weight, in spite of the shape, and threw it to the Angel's opened hand. Judging by the state he was in, there was no way in hell he could move. But he quickly jumps to his feet and slashed at his opponents, though he had a hard time catching his balance. This wingless Angel must have had a hell of a reputation before this whole mess.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The bad Angel turned sharply at her direction, his face full of hatred, and started to fly above her toward her little sister. Penryn froze and then ran toward her sister as fast as she can. The bad Angel scooped Paige up and started to fly away with her to the open sky, smug on his face. Penryn tried so hard to retrieve back her sister and fail to do so. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Penryn finally made up her mind to search for her sister and she needs every help she can get, including making a deal with the enemy himself, the wingless Angel. They need each other to survive, the Angel needs to recover from all the blood loss and can't do a thing without his wings on his back anyway. and Penryn didn't know which way to go to reach the Aerie, the place where the Angels settled without the Angel's help. Things get interesting.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This book gripped me right from the very first page. I absolutely love the first scene. The way they met each other for the first time was a work of a genius! The visual was just depicted so beautifully, skillfully and so real, it makes you want to flip another and another pages until you've reached the back cover. I litteraly can't put the book down.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The Angels weren't the pretty things we have always imagined before or the way books like Hush Hush was trying to portray. It's more like the violent creature that won't hesitate to torture and kill you to get what they wanted. And here's the more interesting fact: They didn't even have a purpose on coming to earth. The world building was just so convincing and real! It really pulls me through and left me wanting for more. It's like I don't wanna go back to reality. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'm going to talk about Penryn and Raffe characters along with their relationship. They were simply. amazing. The character building was perfect. The whole romance thing was beautifully written. THERE IS NO INSTA-LOVE! It's nothing like you've ever read before. The whole thing was just make sense. It is not forced, it is not lust, it is not cheesy. It is pure love. You know it is. The way Susan wrote the whole thing was just right and so realistic! I completely understand why Penryn and Raffe acted the way they acted. I can relate to them pretty easily. The both of them really tried to not feel a thing toward each other. Raffe was just that charismatic and mature enough in that situation, while Penryn was just being realistic that it's a crazy world she's live in right now. How can she flirts with <i>anyone</i>? Not to mention the anyone here is in fact, the enemy itself.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The typical YA male lead character were all like, "I want to be with you but I can't because I'm not from around here but We can kiss a 'little' if you want" while Raffe at first he was just like, I'm an Archangel and a warrior, I must be the one who will be a good example to my followers and not breaking any Angel rules. But as the time grows, so does their relationship. There was adoration, yes the Archangel adores Penryn, not by her looks, she's not even the typical girl that needs saving all the time (yes, Raffe did save her life several times, but it was really necessary. she's not that helpless and she's not trying to act all tough luke typical YA heroines either! she's just. right) and she's not even that attractive, maybe she is in a normal world, I mean. I just love the details Susan gave the impression of Penryn. all greasy hair, skinny, chapped lips, sun-burned skin. She's tough and let me tell you she's freaking kickass because she literally took fighting classes before the apocalypse. This Daughter of Man really manage to steal Raffe's attention. He was impressed by her. The relationship building was just right to me. It's not that obvious at first. I didn't even think for a second that they would kiss in this book! It's right until the end of the book! Of course there were some hints that may lead to the whole romance thing but the amount of it is not plenty. I usually love YA books because of the balance between the romance and the actions and the world building of course. not too much kissings burns with passion and lust involved, you know. We didn't really get what was going on in Raffe's head until the very end when he finally broke down and reveal himself, because he really did put on a solid mask the entire time. There wasn't even the famous 3 words and 8 letters spoken in this book. And that's a good thing! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Oh and their witty conversation! GOD I LOVE the two of them! They were made for each other. I'll randomly open some pages and I'll quote it for you in my next post, because otherwise this review might become too long! Hell it's too long already!!! These are some of the best words Closest to what I felt during reading it. Because there were just too many FEELS, i can't quite put it in a subtle way, so, I apologize for my lack of writing skill.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I just hoped that the sequel, World After, will keeps on getting better, though I doubt it since its predecessor was perfect in my opinion. But I believe in you, Susan Ee. I will respect all of the thoughts you put through this book, all of the decisions you've made, even if you decided it will ended in a bad way. I believe it would lift up to my expectation. And I believe I will enjoy it as much as I've enjoyed Angelfall. I'll always be your supporter!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Thank you for this amazing book, you have written a very engaging tale that I want to delve into and I will give my full support to this series. But please just don't take too long on writing and publishing the next two books because I'm seriously dying to know what's going to happen next :D</div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
omygodomygodomyGOD !!!!! Too much information in one night!!! YOU GUYS! I CANT EVEN</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Dimitri Belikov. No. nononono NOOOO!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So. take a deep breath. Vampire Academy is brought to the BIG SCREEN, as we all know. We finally got our cast for the famous Vampire YA series by Richelle Mead!!! To those who haven't read it, I mean seriously guys? what are you doing with your life? heheheh. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Just grab the book will ya? I'm obsessed with this series (well, at least the first three book. the 4,5,6 didn't really get me) for as long as I can remember. I forgot when exactly I read this series. All I know it was a long long time ago. when I was in senior high? The first book itself was published in 2007. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
At the time, after reading The Twilight Saga (which I regret buying the whole GODDAMNED series, it is now still sitting quietly in my bookshelf, lookin' all dusty and still intact for the lack of touching, NO I AM NOT RE-READING IT! I don't even finish Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. the movie, ohh the movie.......) I was quite skeptical about this whole vampire thing. Not to mention the oh-so-cliche title "Vampire Academy" really? TURNS OUT, this series was really an enjoyable ride. I found myself absorbed to this engaging tale about Moroi (the Vampire), and their guardian (Dhampir). Yes, sometimes the 'guardian' thing sounds like their slave for life, roughly speaking. You'll know once you read it. ANYWAY. I really love the first 3 books. the last 3 books though, I had a hard time reading it, it was like I want to poke someone's eyes. I'm being completely serious.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
To give you the big picture, the story focused on a Dhampir named Rose Hathaway. She's not yet a guardian but she will be, she still needs to graduate from this school called the Vampire Academy. They train guardians and much like a normal high school for the Moroi. Rose was quite determined to become a guardian of her best friend Vasilissa Dragomir. Ugh, Lissa can be quite a b*tch sometimes, I can't relate to her character. anyway, on to the story. One day Rose and Lissa decided to leave the campus for Lissa's sake, she had said. and off they went. after a few months (I guess?), The school had sent some guardians to bring them home. Rose of course won't let this go that easy without a fight. she sure defended Lissa, and encountered this God-like drop-dead gorgeous guardian named Dimitri Belikov (whom we will be discussing right after this). Sure enough her fighting skill was a solid zero compared to this guy, at the end, she and Lissa reluctantly go back to the Academy. This and that happens blablablah Dimitri finds himself in a situation where he became the mentor of Rose, considering she's way behind the other novices in fighting classes. She's got her ass handed to her pretty easilly. and so, certain feelings were built around the two of them, first there was adoration and then that feeling turns into something more complex, yes, love. and they were trying so hard to keep it from one another but not quite doing a great job about that.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This book was simply amazing. At that time, I was so happy that I decided to download the ebook. Now I have the physical books for the whole series. Yay. Now that I've read a lot of more books other than this series, I don't feel like this series is as good as I thought, but still, I enjoyed this book the first time I read it, so I was so excited when I found out that this story is going to be a movie!!!!!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As you all know, I AM a moviegeek. So I know a lot of good and great and magnificent actors and directors, even composers! Name it =p</div>
<div>
SO. we're going to the point of this review (I'm sorry it took me so long to get to the point, sometimes I'm just too. talkative. you know)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
WE FINALLY GET OUR CAST!!!!! FINGERSCROSSED!!! Been waiting for this for too long can'tstanditLord please have mercy just don't oh please let him be awesome and shiny and dark and all the good adjectives out of the english dictionary. Dimitri Belikov was just. the most. perfect lead male character in the whole YA (Yound Adult) universe!! I mean, he's obviously not perfect, have some flaws, he had this coolness in him, darkness, integrity, loyalty, not to mention his God-like posture and freaking BADASS. Basically he's just one of those character that every girl would kill to be with him.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Okay where were we? Dimitri Belikov. Yes.</div>
<div>
We were all left breathless to find out the cast. It was idk it suddenly came down to me like yesterday. I was lying on my comfy little bed, I was on Imdb and I've got this TING in my head that says Vampire Academy. So, I was half hoping that they would cast someone that has nothing to do with the Hollywood industry in their record. and PRAISE THE LORD they did exactly what I was hoped for. O Yeah!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I don't really care about the others. All that matters was just DIMITRI. and of course Rose. But still I was more excited to find out about who will be the male lead character which is my favorite for all time!! (but then of course came along RAFFE, pronounced Rah-Fie, short from Raphael, yes, the Archangel Raphael, from the EPIC Penryn and the End of the World series, ANGELFALL by Susan Ee. MYGOSH itwasSUCHanEPICnovel everyoneSHOULDreadit IMMEDIATELY!! I'll post my review about it LATER for sure!)</div>
<div>
Oh for the love of God, enough the babble!! I did this when I was too anxious or sth so I apologize for my absolute absurd behavior x(</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I finally found out who will play this kickass character, DUNDUNDUN........ it's</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Danila Kozlovsky.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I repeat, DANILA KOZLOVSKY, everybody. YES, HE IS RUSSIAN. zomgassdgfghjkkll;;'</div>

But then, came the realization. It kinda struck me like a lightning.</div>
<div>
Dimitri. Has. A. Shoulder-length. Hair.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
BAM. CRASH. And all the sound effects you can think of to describe how <i>crushed</i> I am. My heart is weak... and.. And.....and.......</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I mean, Danila looks perfect in those hair look at those pictures!! I was kind of hoping he would look like that in the movie he-he. But then It would be different from the book and the fans would be pissed about it, I know. But still, you can NOT deny that guys look more attractive in messy short hair.. heheheh.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
as a bonus for hearing my useless rant, here's a picture of Danila and Zooey Deutch a.k.a. Dimitri and Rose =3</div>

I took a nap and I had this stupid beautiful dream that I found myself really upset after waking up. I just woke up from it and I felt terrifyingly empty. It just felt like I was stabbed on the chest with an invisible sword, Idk but it reminds me of the <i>sectumsempra</i> spell casted by Harry to Draco.. I think it can pretty much describe how I felt just then. ANYWAYS.. here's what just happened. I can't believe it, I mean, sweet Lord Jesus Maria and Joseph!! I don't even know where to start! I was just so anxious as I'm writing this blog, I need to take a moment to myself first. BLAH WHAT AM I TALKING ABOUT EXACTLY?! I'm sorry this is just the impact of Michael Fassbender's charms on me. Geez I sounded like a freak. I promise this is the last time I'll ever EVER write something so ridiculous you might throw up. I just have to type this down. so bear with me, ok?<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
okay first. I need to show you guys who haven't noticed how charming he is.... His bones structure, his eyes when he's gazing at you (even if it's only a photograph you can still feel the strong impact of his eyes bore into your soul) *drool* *faint* *drool*</div>

SO. I had a crazy dream that involved Fassy in it. we were kind of holding hands etc. etc. I guess I don't have to go down into details ok it's pretty embarrassing. All I can say that it was like a freaking fantasy novel. He saved me from this and that and somehow I get the feeling that it somehow connects to the reality of my life. I mean the conflict there, we actually talk about life like it's all the real thing that happened between us. It was just a DREAM for Christ's sake, what's the big deal?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It was just so weird, knowing that this kind of thing won't ever happen in real life. You don't expect your favorite celeb is right on your doorstep, right? that's just impossible. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The point is, it was just a feeling so surreal that no words can actually describe how I felt the moment I woke up. The feeling was so intense. I came to a conclusion that, I won't ask God to give me such a wonderful dream anymore because the feeling I got right after waking up was terrible. knowing that, that kind of thing won't actually happen in my life. I was quite upset at some point. So, I guess I prefer a bad dream instead. So that when I woke up, I get such a wonderful feeling that pretty much sounds like 'oh Thank God it was only a dream!' maybe the state I was in when I jerk awake was not pleasant, but the comfortable feeling afterwards must be great, you know. just an opinion. blame it on Fassy! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Ha-ha.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
anyways, I should definitely talk about Man of Steel. and about how gorgeous was Henry Cavill. but I'll save it for later. I think I'm gonna watch it again for the second time and after that the review will sure come along.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here comes another drool-worthy Fassy's pics... ENJOY ; )</div>
