  • friday night movies #6

    Look who didn’t keep her promise. I fell asleep last night before writing a Friday Night Movies post, so I think it might be okay for me to write it right now? On a Saturday night? Here it goes…

    A few days ago, I watched Little Manhattan. This film tells about 10-year-old Gabe who falls in love with 11-year-old Rosemary. The story goes from when Gabe first questions what he is feeling, to the event when he realises that he is experiencing his first love. Near the end of the film, Gabe finally confesses his feeling for Rosemary, but Rosemary tells him that since she’s only eleven, she thinks she may not be ready to fall in love.

    This film is really cute. I love Josh Hutcherson in Zathura, but I think he’s cuter in this film. And the girl who played as Rosemary is just as cute. They look good together. The story itself is very sweet. Love is always an interesting topic to talk about, but unlike any other romantic comedy films out there, this film is about children’s love, not adults’. It’s a good film to watch with your family since there’s no sexual content. This film is also good for a first date (or the 100th? Hehe…)

    Sincerely,
    Putdar.

  • an apology

    I am so sorry. I’ve been such a bad blogger. The last time I posted something here is Monday. It’s been a very hectic week. I’ll tell y’all about it later. I’ll be back with a Friday Night Movies post tonight. See you! 😉

    *UPDATE*
    I just want to share this picture I found on Aleks’ blog 🙂

  • eid al fitr 1432: part 1

    Our journey to Lampung this year was one hell of a ride. It usually takes approximately eleven hours for us to go to Nyai’s house by car (and a ferry boat), but it actually took us almost 23 hours to go to Auntie Laili’s house (which is still one hour away from Nyai’s). TWENTY-THREE HOURS! God, that was super exhausting and boring.

    Our journey to Merak seaport was quite smooth. No traffic jam along the highway. But right after we came out of the Merak highway, tadaaaa! Traffic jam. We arrived there at 7am and we could release ourselves from the jam at 4pm. That was nine hours of sweating inside a small Honda Civic with five passengers under the sun. After being free from the traffic jam, we still had to wait an hour to get in to the ferry boat and sail away to Bakauheni. My, my…

    We sailed for two hours and we arrived at Bakauheni at 7pm. We had dinner in a restaurant but I had completely lost my appetite. I was so tired that I fell asleep for the rest of the journey. I woke up right when the car got in the garage in Auntie Laili’s house. It was almost 2am and so we had sahur together and I fell asleep again. We were off to Nyai’s house in the morning and arrived at 8am, safe and sound.

    The car was stuck there for hours. Dad even got the time to take pictures at the side of the road. Haha!

    The crazy, crazy lines of cars waiting to get in to the ferry boat

    Sunda strait and a glimpse of the sunset. Beautiful!

    Mum looked extra exhausted

    To be continued in the part 2 😉

  • heart ♥ kristel’s ELF collection giveaway

    I first heard about ELF from Kaelah. She posted her opinion about ELF products on her blog. She said she loved them. All of them! I really want to try them but unfortunately they’re not available here in my country. I can’t order them via their website either because I don’t own a credit card. (Yeah, it’s hard to be a college student with limited money supply 😐 )

    That is why, my friends, I was very surprised when I found that Kristel is giving away ELF products. Not one, not two, but lots of them. And there’ll be two winners! *die*

    To enter, simply click any images above or click here. Let’s win this giveaway!

    Sincerely,
    Putdar.
