OPPO R7s “All About Flash”: My Dreamy New-Year’s Wish

Halo sobat Bloggers! Nggak terasa sekarang kita udah di penghujung tahun 2015 dan bentar lagi kita akan memasuki tahun baru. Yeay! Buat temen-temen yang gaul dan eksis pasti udah punya rencana acara malam tahun baru, dong? New Year’s Eve pastinya jadi salah satu acara yang paling ditunggu-tunggu, khususnya buat anak muda. Selain itu, tahun baru pastinya identik sama Resolusi Tahun Baru. Udah nge-list resolusi untuk tahun baru, belum? Nah, sesuai judulnya, di postingan kali ini gue bakal membahas my-top-list-resolution buat tahun depan. Ehm, siapa tau postingan ini bisa menginspirasi teman Bloggers dan para O-fans!



Udah bukan rahasia ya kalau gadget smartphone menjadi suatu kebutuhan di era digital ini. Fitur smartphone yang mendukung peranan multitasking sangat berperan penting di kehidupan kita sehari-hari. Untuk terus mengembangkan kualitas dan fitur pada ponsel pintar, OPPO kali ini merilis seri baru dari R7 edition yaitu OPPO R7s. Setelah sebelumnya ada OPPO R7 Lite dan R7 Plus, kali ini R7s datang menengahi dua seri sebelumnya. Dengan tagline “Style in Flash” OPPO R7s hadir dengan outlook yang nggak kalah elegan, fancy, luxury, dan yang pastinya flashy!


Anyway, kenapa sih OPPO R7s wajib ada di wish-list tahun baru kamu? Kalo gue sih simple, gue pengen punya smartphone baru yang canggih di dalam dan keren di luar. Semua orang pasti berharap bisa dapet semua yang baru di tahun baru. Apalagi kalau bisa punya salah satu ponsel dari peraih penghargaan The Best User Experience Smartphone di ajang IGRA (Indonesia Golden Ring Award) ini. Nggak heran kan kalo gue kepengeeeen banget bisa punya smartphone OPPO R7s. Di antara semua smartphone yang dijual di pasaran, OPPO R7s ini yang paling cocok dan ‘gue banget’ untuk ada di deretan top-wish-list tahun baru. Ada banyak banget alasan kenapa gue kepingin punya ponsel ini. Tapi, semua udah gue rangkum menjadi 7 alasan utama kenapa gue pengen punya OPPO R7s. Let’s check them out, guys!


OPPO R7s akan memanjakan penggunanya banget dengan sektor memori RAM yang besar yaitu 4GB! Buat kita yang multitasking, OPPO R7s pastinya anti lemot saat menjalankan beberapa aplikasi sekaigus. Ditambah performa yang lebih responsive. Say goodbye deh sama layar blank!
Selain itu, OPPOR7s juga dibekali dengan memori internal berkapasitas super gede, yaitu sebesar 32GB. Belum cukup juga? Tenang O-fans. Kalau kamu punya hobi download banyak aplikasi, lagu dan video berukuran besar kayak gue, kita masih bisa memperluas memori eksternal hingga 182GB!!


Hal utama yang paling penting saat memilih smartphone pastinya kinerja kerja hardware. OPPO R7s sangat menunjang kinerja para penggunanya dalam memaksimalkan pemakaian smartphone. Kenapa? Karena seri ini mengusung prosesor Octa Core 1.5 Ghz 64-Bit dan chipset Qualcomm MSM8939 Snapdragon 615. Untuk GPU, OPPO R7s dibekali dengan GPU Adreno 405. Kabar gembira buat para pecinta game atau sekedar hobi nonton performance grup musik Korea dengan kualitas HD kayak gue. Jadi, jangan takut ponsel kamu nge-lag saat main game dan nonton Video HD.

Mengimbangi kinerja Hardware, tentunya software juga patut menjadi pertimbangan utama. OPPO R7s hadir dengan sistem operasi Android Lollipop 5.1 dengan balutan antarmuka ColorOS 2.1 yang membuat perpindahan antar aplikasi lebih cepat dana mulus. Dengan adanya ColorOS 2.1 sebagai penunjang kinerja perangkat lunak, pengguna OPPO R7s yang senang berkreasi dengan mempercantik tampilan antarmuka pengguna akan dimudahkan dengan adanya fitur tema, icon, dan lock screen. Jadi, nggak perlu pusing mencari dan install aplikasi 3rd Party lagi untuk memodifikasi tampilan ponsel kamu. Selain itu, ColorOS 2.1 juga memudahkan pengguna untuk mensortir aplikasi secara otomatis. Buat temen-temen yang nggak suka lihat icon yang berantakan pada antarmuka ponsel, OPPO R7s solusinya. Satu lagi kecanggihan yang ditawarkan OPPO R7s ini. ColorOs 2.1 kini juga hadir dengan pembersihan otomatis. Jadi, cocok banget buat gue yang sering malas membersihkan sampah-sampah sisa pemakaian aplikasi.

FYI, buat temen-temen yang belum tau apa itu ColorOS, ColorOS merupakan platform berbasis Android yang dikembangkan oleh OPPO. ColorOS memuat banyak fitur dan aplikasi tambahan lain yang nggak kita jumpai di system Android biasa. Jadi, kalau kamu bosan dengan tampilan ponsel Android kamu yang gitu-gitu aja, OPPO R7s solusinya!
Nggak bisa dipungkiri kalau sekarang banyak orang yang mempertimbangkan spek kamera sebelum membeli ponsel, khususnya buat anak muda. Nah, kalo kamu juga hobi Selfie dan jeprat-jepret, nggak akan kecewa sama kualitas kamera yang diusung sama OPPO R7s. OPPO R7s dibekali dengan kamera depan 13 megapiksel dan kamera belakng 8 megapiksel. Nggak heran kalau kualitas gambar yang dihasilkan Ultra HD. Kamu juga tetap bisa menangkap detail objek dengan cermat berkat dukungan teknologi phase detection autofocus serta adanya fitur dual flash yang mendukung kualitas foto terbaik walaupun pencahayaan remang. Jadi, buat kamu yang hobi motret, nggak ada halangan lagi buat berfoto walalupun di tempat dengan penerangan minimalis. Selfie cantik juga lebih mudah dengan adanya dukungan fitur Beautify dan teknologi pemrosesan gambar PureImage 2.0+. Kita bisa menambah beragam filter pada foto selfie kita secara langsung tanpa bantuan aplikasi lain. Selfie juga lebih aman dengan Optimisasi Anti-guncangan. Jadi, nggak perlu takut gambar-mu nge-blur dan lain-lain, ya. Dengan dukungan kualitas gambar Ultra HD dari kamera OPPO R7s, kita bakal eksis di malam tahun baru nanti. Kita bisa selfie dengan teman-teman di bawah kembang api dengan kualitas gambar yang tetap HD di malam hari. Jangan lupa juga abadikan momen-momen seru malam tahun baru kamu dengan kemampuan perekam video beresolusi Full HD 1080p dengan kecepatan 30 fps. Are you ready for New Year’s Eve? 

OPPO R7s dilengkapi dengan baterai berkapasitas besar yakni baterai Li-Po berdaya 3070 mAh dan dukungan teknologi VOOC Flash Charge. Dengan fitur VOOC Flash Charge, pengguna bisa mengisi baterai hingga 75% hanya dalam waktu 30 menit. Buat kamu yang hobi teleponan sama pacar, nggak usah takut telpon putus karena low-bat. VOOC Flash Charge memungkinkan pengisian untuk telponan 2 jam non-stop hanya dengan 5 menit waktu charging. Keren, ya! Kita nggak perlu lgi menunggu berjam-jam untuk menunggu baterai ponsel kita penuh. Cocok banget buat kita yang suka lupa nge-charge hp sebelum kelur rumah.



I can’t live without internet. Yang paling sebel kalau lagi asyik download atau surfing trus tiba-tiba jaringan lemot. Nggak usah khawatir, karena OPPO R7s sudah mendukung jaringn 4G LTE dimana kita bisa berselancar di dunia maya dengan jaringan yang wuuzzz-wuuuzzz…. Dengan jaringan 4G LTE yang disuguhkan, kita bisa internetan pada kecepatan 150 mbps. Cocok banget buat gue yang hobi download video dengan ukuran besar. Selain itu, OPPO R7s juga mendukung pemakaian dual SIM-Card (Nano-SIM/ Micro-SIM, dual stand-by). Jadi, buat temen-temen yang menggunakan dua nomor handphone yang berbeda, SIM card kamu tetap bisa aktif di satu ponsel yang sama. Ya ampun, masih ada kelebihan lain di OPPO R7s?
Tentunya outlook juga nggk kalah penting dalam pemilihan smartphone. Buat yang suka tampil elegan, fancy, dan luxury, OPPO R7s nggak akan mengecewakan. Pasalnya, seri yang satu ini dibalut dengan body full metal yang tampak premium dan elegan. Dimensi secara kesuluruhannya memiliki rasio 151.8 x 75.4 x 7 mm dan berat sekitar 155 gram sehingga menghasilkan body yang super-slim dan ringan.

Selain itu, OPPO R7s juga menggunakan bezel layar yang ultra tipis, yaitu 2,2mm. Yang lebih uniknya, bagian belakang OPPO R7s terkesan seperti metalik beludru yang membuat penggunanya bisa terlihat lebih stylish dan sophisticated. Dengan layar luas berukuran 5,5 inci ini, OPPO R7s juga terlihat lebih mempesona dengan adanya layar tepi lengkung 2,5D. Layar juga dilindungi lapisan anti gores Gorilla Glass 3. Sekarang kamu bisa terlihat anggun, elegan, dan fancy dengan hanya menggenggam OPPO R7s. Hal ini yang bikin gue mupeng banget sama OPPO R7s. karena salah satu idola gue pernah bilang kalau dia suka liat cewek dengan gadget yang terkesan mewah. OPPO R7s will complete me! Oh ya, OPPO R7s menawarkan dua pilihan desain warna yaitu Rose Gold dan Gold. Pilihan warna Rose Gold akan menampilkan kamu yang lebih Elegant dan Stylish serta Gold yang akan memberi kesan Glamour dan Fancy. Kamu suka yang mana?


Dari 7 alasan kenapa gue pengen banget punya OPPO R7s di atas, kamu jadi tahu kan kenapa OPPO R7s special dan cocok banget menemani kamu di tahun baru yang akan datang. Dengan tema yang diusung “All About Flashy” kita bisa liat bagaimana OPPO R7s berusaha menyuguhkan “Flash” pada performa hingga desain luar. Dengan semua kecepatan dan kestabilan dari kinerja OPPO R7s, cocok banget buat kita yang akan lebih aktif di tahun baru nanti. Ditambah desain tampilan “Flashy” yang menyilaukan bagi siapapun yang melihat. OPPO R7s juga cocok buat semua gender, tua dan muda, businessman maupun pelajar. OPPO R7s emang paling cocok nemenin acara tahun baruan bersama keluarga, sobat, dan pacar. Pastinya OPPO R7s bikin kita tambah percaya diri, semangat, dan anti mati gaya dalam menyambut tahun baru nanti. So, Let’s be “Style in a Flash” with OPPO R7s.

Entitled



Assalamu’alaikum lagi… ciyeee, yang nge-blog nya tambah rajin. By the way, selamat hari raya Idul Fitri buat temen-temen bloggers yang merayakan, ya. Minal aidin wal faidzin, mohon maaf lahir bathin.
Kalo hari lebarn perasaan harinya panjang banget, ya. Udah bangun dari subuh dan nggak tidur lagi. Denger-denger katanya pamali kalo tidur pas lebaran. Nggak tau deh mitos apa nggak. In fact, orang-orang di rumaha sekarang lagi pada tidur sekaligus persiapan stamina soalnya ntar siang mau mudik ke kampung nyokap. Gue sendiri, asli mata berat, sih. Tapi inget pengen nge-blog. Oke skip. Kalo biaanya orang-orang pada asibuk pas lebaran. Muter-muter silaturahim sama keluarga, berhubung di sini gue1 nggak ada keluarga yang deket dan tahun ini, for the third year, gue nggak pulang kampung. Actually, I miss my hometown. Rasanya kalo lebaran nggak ngiter ke rumah sodara-sodara tu kurang afdhol. Kurang berasa hari spesialnya dan kurang berasa di kantong alias miskin THR. So, for me, tadi pagi Cuma sempet salam-salaman sama tetangga. Itu juga gue nggak kenal.
Well, jadi sebenernya apa sih tujuan gue nge-blog pagi menjelang siang di hari raya begini. Jadi dua beberapa hari yang lalu, saking ga ada kerjaan apalagi pas puasa gue jdi nyari-nyari kerjaan. Entah kenapa tiba-tiba gue pengen banget ngulang baca buku JDS. Masih inget, nggak? JDS stand for Jingga Dan Senja.  Novel favorit gue dri jaman SMA. Kangen aja gitu sama tokoh-tokohnya. Secara itu novel trilogy sambungannya nggak terbit-terbit udah ditunggu seabad juga. Gila ya, dari gue sama tokohnya asamaa-samaa SMA sampe sekarang gue Sarjana… kurang lama apalagi coba. Sedih sih. Kangen berat. Mana udah dari jauh-jauh hari cover-nya udah dirilis. Sampe-sampe ada pre-order kaosnya juga. Ah, tapi mau gimana lagi. Gue Cuma bisa bantu doa buat mbak Esti supaya lebih semangat ngerampungin tu novel. Biar bisa cepet rilis amiiin…
Tapi, entah kenapa tu karakternya sampe sekarang masih aja jadi favorit gue. Setelah baca lagi, nothing changes my feelings toward him, ciyeee. Tu anak SMA masih aja keren, ya. Padahal umur gue sama dia kan udah jauh beda gitu. Genre tu novel aja masih teenlit. Secara keknya gue udah nggak pantes baca teenlit, errrr. Tapi abang Ari tetep menjadi pujaan hatiku… walalupun setelah baca ulang berasa nggak penting juga sebagian konfliknya. Gue aja nggak yakin ada anak cowok yang se-nggak ada kerjaan-nya kayak dia. Ko bisa gitu cowok keren, cool, bandel, gentle… ya sudahlah.
Dan setelah gue beresin baca dua novelnya, lagi. Gue pengen banget bnget banget segera baca lanjutannya. You know what, saking desperate-nya gue sampe download ebook fanfiction yang ada di gugel. Padahal gue paling anti banget sama yang namanya baca fanfiction gini. Apalagi kalo novelnya masih bersambung dan official-nya belum ada. Takutnya jalan ceritanya malah jadi rancu setelah baca novel aslinya. Gila ya, saking banyaknya fans Ari yang udah nunggu-nunggu tu lanjutan, gue nemuin banyak banaget fanfiction dengan versi yang beda-beda. Lumayan kali ya bagi mereka yang udaha kangen banget sama pasangan yang hobi bikin heboh dan huru-hara di SMA Airlangga ini.
Ya Tuhan, mat ague udah sepet banget ini. pengen merem dulu deh bentaran. Siapa tau dapet ilham terusan cerita novel JDS trilogy. Yah, minimal mimpiin abang Ari lah. Hehe…

Salam, Black Ranger, still
Pengen dapet bingkisan Lebaran satu yang kaya Ari, trus dipitain. Bye.


Comeback



Assalamualaikum
Finally!! Setelah hampir setahun hiatus dari aktivitas nge-blog. Dari yang jarang posting sampe ga pernah sama sekali, dari gue lebih muda setahun sampe nambah umur setahun, dari gue kece sampe gue tambah kece, dari personel EXO hampir bersebelas sampe sisa bersembilan, dari gue tinggal di bumi sampe pindah ke planet lain… kalo kalian nyangka ini hiperbolis ya nggak papa. Tapi, nggak juga sih. Ini bisa dimaknain sebagai makna denotatif dan konotatif. Terakhir gue ng-blog, setahun lalu gue masih tinggal di belahan bumi di Bogor. Sekarang udah pindah planet. Yang kemaren-kemaren kata orang rame banget di bilang planet baru di tata surya, yaitu planet Bekasi!! Nggak pake becanda loh. Sampe-sampe gue yang masih kuliah di Bogor kemaren-kemaren kudu nyewa pesawat jet sendiri biar hemat waktu. Saking lamanya gue nggak nge-blog, dari gue masih jadi mahasiswa tingkat hampir akhir yang masih unyu walopun udah kurang fresh gara-gara tugas makin banyak numpuk sampe sekarang gue udah fresh lagi, fresh graduate, alias baru Sarjana. HAHAA!! Iya, gue udah Sarjana Alhamdulillah… walaupun prosesnya bikin pusing pala Barbie tapi ya nggak papa lah. Udah lewat juga. Tapi, asli deh. Kalo dipikir-pikir perasaan lama bener. Pas gue baca postingan terakhir, itu dari gue lagi broken-hearted gara-gara personel EXO ada yang cabut, iya beneran itu postingan tentang gituan. Kan gue udah bilang someday gue bakal ngetawain itu postingan, which is hari ini…. Yang walaupun dari dalam hati yang terdalam masih kangen EXO yang dulu hiks…  ya tapi yang jelas setelah postingan terakhir itu udah banyak banget yang gue lewatin. Nggak lama setelah itu gue magang KKL di salah satu instansi pemerintah di Bogor selama sebulan. Beres itu kudu nyelesein laporan yang lumayan makan waktu beberapa bulan karena molor dikerjain. Nggak lama abis KKL aja gue mesti pindah rumah ke planet lain. Banyak yang mesti disesuaikan sama lingkungan baru. Yang cuacanya aja 180 derajat beda banget sama tempat tinggal gue yang dulu. Belum lagi adaptasi sama jadwal kuliah yang mulai rancu gegara jarak membentang antara rumah sama kampus. Must be the most tiring phase. Sambil mulai dipusingin sama draft skripsi yang mesti udah masuk ke prodi. You can guess the rest of the story sampe gue udah jadi Sarjana gini. Banyak banget sih momen yang pengen banget gue tulis di blog kemaren-kemaren. Walaupun gue tau yang baca juga gue sendiri. Tapi adalah saat-saat yang pengen banget gue share di Blog as I used to. Kayak pas ulang tahun taun kemaren. Biasanya gue rajin posting sebelum atau sesudah ulang tahun. Yah, sekedar berkeluh kesah tentang ‘uh, gue tmbah tua lagi’ atau ngucapin harapan-harapan yang pengennya bisa terwujud di tahun-tahun ke depan. Memuntahkan sedikit ke-eneg-an sama skripsi beberapa bulan kemaren, yang bukan rahasia lagi, gue paling suka nge-blog disaat-saat genting atau pas lagi kepepet buat Cuma sekedar cari distraksi. Blogging was always been my best distraction. Atau sekedar nge-review my favorite books. My hottie Percy Jackson, yang gue selesein dua bukunya selama masa pembuatan skripsi. Nggak nge-blog, ya ini salah satu distraksi gue yang lain yang nggak kalah ampuh. Padahal buku keempat serial The Heroes of Olympus yang judulnya House of Hades udah gue anggurin setahun lebih, sampe buku yang kelimanya udah keluar dan ebooknya udah gue download juga –oops—tetep aja tu buku ga beres-beres. Sampe akhirnya masa itu pun tiba. Masa-masa kelam dalam hidup gue yang sampe sekarang masih berasa banget malesinnya kalo udah disinggung-singgung soal skripsi. Gue ngerti deh kenapa ada yang namanya MAPALA yang udah berates-ratus semester tetep nggak lulus-lulus. Salah satunya ya pasti karena dahsyatnya pengaruh skripsi terhadap minat mengerjakan dari para mahasiswanya. Tuh kan, kalimat gue aja udah mirip ama judul skripsi dua variabel. Nggak heran kalo mahasiswa kurang dukungan dan motivasi ditambah iman yang kuat pasti proses pembuatan skripsinya Cuma maju mundur cantik. Yah masih mending ketimbang udah mundur nggak maju-maju lagi. Syukurnya gue masih termasuk, entah orang yang beriman kuat atau Cuma lucky, jadi bisa ngelewatin semua ini. Jadilah sebulan yang lalu. Asli! Sebulan pas banget hari ini, watu gue nulis ni postingan, tali toga gue baru dipindahin sama Rektor. Tadinya pengen juga sih posting satu judul khusus buat momen ini tapi ya daripada ketemu malesnya kayak kemaren-kemaren trus malah nggak di posting sama sekali, jadinya gue satuin aja momen wisuda-wisudaan sama ni postingan.

My Galaxy is Gong Under

I feel bad today. I feel more than just bad. I feel miserable. I don't say today is the worst day. Today was just the worst feeling I've ever had, perhaps, after failed to attend Justin Bieber concert years ago. Yet the feeling was different. I'm not suppose to dare to write such a post because one day, I know I would read this again and I would easily laugh it off, but for today, only today, please let me let out every bad and sad feeling that I've held since yesterday.

I know it's not something that I should necessary cry over. It doesn't even change my life. I don't eve have any personally business on this. My feeling is just another side effect of everything that happened these days. Feeling of thousands people that unfortunately should feel the pain. I feel bad, I feel worse, I would feel even worst every time I try to think about it. Over and over again. There's even no emoticon that could express my true feeling. I feel miserable.

This is the childish act I've ever done in this such age. I want to quit this feeling.

I know, and I believe, everything happens for a reason. I also know that every problem that come to our lives definitely can be through. No matter how long you could feel the pain, the times would always heal. I just wonder how can I through this feeling and how long should it takes?

I just wanted to stop holding breath and tears. I really want to do such thing. I just can't wait to read this post again, to curse and to laugh at myself to be such a weak person To think about such an unimportant problem that wouldn't take any important role in my life. I wonder when can I do this all. That's it.
I feel bad. I feel mad. I feel extremely asdfghjklzxcvbnmqwetryuiop!!!!!!!!!

I'm sorry to be such an emotional person. It must have something to do with my period time. Today feels like everything was going wrong. I could get mad easily. I hate this feeling I swear, I'm sorry :'(
I sound all like a drama queen. Let me be a drama queen, only for today. Thanks

Suddenly I hate the number of people in a soccer team


Sincerely, a poor girl who trap in another Galaxy

The Fault in Our Stars

It's like it has been years since I posted the latest post and I feel like I quite missing writing here. Well, hello again blogger how's life? According to the title, if it only reminds you of a book written by John Green, yes it is. But, I don't feel like I would write a review or something. I just have something in mind after reading the book.

Well, it's better to start if you know what the story is about. It's a 16th year old girl named Hazel who had cancer, thyroid cancer that had spread to her lungs. It made her always carried a portable oxygen tank to breath. She went to support group which is group attends by some kids who also had cancer. The story began when she met a boy, later name Augustus, at the support group while he was accompanying his friend, Isaac, who also had cancer/tumor in his eye. Back to Augustus, or just Gus, he had osteosarcoma or bone cancer which made his one leg was amputated and wore a fake leg. Hazel found him attractive and hot. In a short time they fell in love with each other. I'm not going to write as if it's a review, I've told ya. At least you can still look up on the wikipedia if you find the book interesting.

The book has recommended by my friend. I have downloaded days ago but I have just found a spare time yesterday when I was downloading my favorite tv show. And I'm not in the mood to continue reading or watching conan (I’ll tell you about this later). That's why I think reading it isn't a bad idea besides I was seeking for something to do. You could tell, I end up reading it until the very last line.

What I really thought about is the book talks about death a lot. I can't describe how terrifying to be someone who already know that his/her time will coming soon. But in this book, these people who knows what they fate would be, are casually talking about it like it's not something you should scare about. I understand because they say 'bisa karena biasa' in Bahasa. I'm afraid I would change the meaning if I roughly translate it, but it's kind of like you can get through anything because you already used to it. And I understand they didn't want to be pitied by us eventhough we know that feel sorry and pity is our best way to express the feeling because we don't and cannot know how it feels like. We don't know how to be more sympathy. But they do have life. Like they dont have any chance to fight it. And I believe they want to be treated just like a normal person. Most of the book has revealed how they (people who have disease) feel like. What they really think.

Through this book, I also figured out that most of these people have suffering a lot to fight the pain. We, as people who only know to keep them fighting, to encourage them to survive, and don’t want to lose them, try as best as we can to keep them survive the battle, don’t really know exactly what they feel. But I believe the pain can’t describe by the words. Sometimes, when the pain comes, it’s hard to choose if life is better than death. And I feel bad, really bad, because I have experienced to lost my closest people in my life. I just wanted them to be healthy and to stay longer in this world, but they gone anyway. And I was cried over them like the world’s better end right away, or at least they could take me with them.

You know, people say time heals almost everything, it’s true. Well, when you lose your precious people around you, your world is not end because as time goes by you meet people, or at least you know how to consent it. But there are different pains. The pain that comes from disease not can always heal by time. Disease like cancer, the medicines for many of varies of them haven’t been invented yet. So, the medicine they take may only extend their live, not to heal it. The best way to keep the pain away is only death, when nothing can be felt when your die.

I also have experienced my important people has been gone because some disease that can’t be fully recovered. I still remember when I lost my beloved grandfather. The night before he gone, I was like praying to God if his pain could be taken away. And in the dawn they told us that my grandfather has gone forever. And I was like, why? Did I ask for his healthy? But I was wrong, and God was right. He literally DID what I asked for. I was asking as if He could take the pain away from him. Some people told me that it was the best. That my grandfather had suffered a lot, and it’s better to let him go and be free. He didn’t deserve the pain anymore. So, I thought like he might also want to go all this time. He might survive until that time only because family wanted him to. How he must live with all the pain and doze of medicines every day. It’s just not fair at all. While we feel relieved he still live until now, he thought if he just escaped the pain and be free.
Same story goes to my beloved mom. I’m sure she felt the same way. Although I didn’t understand anything about what happened to my mom at the time because I was just a baby and I can’t even spell the name of the disease, but I know she suffered a lot and now she live free somewhere, in heaven perhaps.

So, i was supposed to talk about the book itself. Well, i think it was good written. And to tell the truth, I love the character of Augustus. Although he was a legless boy, but I could feel his charisma and hotness trough the story LOL. His character may be found in lots of novel but I like how the author made him as a 17th year old boy who smart, has sense of humor, romantic somehow, and also knows how to flirt. And he has charm when he said metamorphose words, like, ‘wow this guy is cool and geniuses’. I think many girls read and love a book because of the man’s character LOL.

About Augustus Wa
ters, he was a boy who fears oblivion. He worried if he will be remembered as someone who had done something heroic, perhaps, when he’s gone. It’s kinda cliché, like who are really care about what people doing after we leave. But, when I think about it, well, everybody should be fear about it. Like, if we are oblivion and nobody has really care if we are gone, whose gonna pray for us? I wonder if nobody has already forgotten about me and they don’t put my name on the list of their prayer anymore, or nobody will come to make a visit of condolence to my grave. And I would like sighing and kinda boring on the sky, waiting for the end of the world and the afterlife without nobody remembers me. How sad.

The main problem of reading this, for me, because I hardly understand about 23% of the story (?), such as name of medicines, disease, and poetry/poems, and sentences of Peter Van Houten (the author of the book which Hazel like so much) that I bet I won’t understand even if it’s written in my language. It was bad because I think these are content lots of information and important words. Or, should I say these were content the whole meaning of the story. What a pity.

Not to spoiler, I’m kinda disappointed about the ending. Because somewhat, well, I can’t tell you but it was quite maddening me. I’m just curious what happen to these people after the book ended. Somewhat, like Hazel curious about what happen to the people in her favorite book after the book ended. Should I send a letter or email to the author just to know what he thinks about what happen after the book? And somehow, he would reply my letter that he can’t tell me unless I go fly all the way to America and tell me in person, so I could dream about him paying my trip LOL ( up till now, you should read the book to understand).

The good news is they make a film adapted from this book and will be premiered on this upcoming June. But the bad news is it is scheduled to be released only in The Netherlands, Australia, and United States.

Nevertheless, I really want to see if the director would be make it just like what reader imagine. Will the movie success to make the audiences shed a tear? Well, actually as we know the story is about sick people and not to spoiler, we must bet this is a sad novel. Personally, I consider it was sad story but we won’t necessary of shed a tear but hold it back. Why? Because the author make it too casual even in a sad situation. Although honestly I still shed tears only because I’m an overly emotional kind of girl. So, I wonder how deep the director could dig our emotion when we watch the movie. And also I have some favorite scene that I really wanted to see in visual.

Last, I think I should end the post in a good way so here I put the trailer of the movie :)




Augustus Waters said this world is a Wish Granting Factory. Do you agree?

Untitled

Hello Monday! How’s life? I hope everything’s going well to you because I don’t K

Actually I don’t feel good recently because I catch cold and some others illness. However, it’s been almost a week and I don’t even go to college. How’s sad. Anyway, I just want to make a quick post of preview about what I really want to post here next time. Maybe, after I get recover.

Last Tuesday I and some friends from college went to the Botanical Garden due to celebrate a farewell party after resign from the faculty’s organization. It was fun though I have already didn’t feel well that day but I thought it will be a ‘once in a life’ moment for us, so I didn’t want to skip that one. We took a lot of pics that day. Gonna post it later because  I don’t own any of the pics.

From there, we moved to planned to watch a movie. It was a good movie titled Divergent. Adapted from a novel by Veronica Roth, I think it was a good and imaginative one. Sadly, I gotta left the studio earlier LOL. Usually, an adapted movie doesn’t present all of the scenes in the novel itself. I think the novel must be a lot better than the movie, so I search and found the ebook. If you want to read it too, I will share it in the next post or you can google and download it LOL. Just knew, it presented in 3 books which is called trilogy.

Talking about novel, I haven’t finished read an ebook that I downloaded last October. Well, it kind of too long to finish a book. Moreover, it’s a book from your favorite series. Yes, it was the fourth book from The Heroes of Olympus series, my favorite series everrr. Even though, I still didn’t manage to finish it sometimes later.

And also, I have always wanted to do review again in this blog. Whatever if it’s books or movies, I just want to do thing like that >.< though I didn’t do read or watch much recently K


Last words, keep yourself healthy because I think the weather is not nice these days. Goodbye~
