Movie Review 2 : Girl, Interupted

Salam n hey again.....it has been a while since i last wrote anything on my blog......honestly wut really makes me wanna write a review on this is simply just because i've this psychopatic interest in people...... YES....if anyone would ask me wut do i like the MOST.......i will baldly answer it PEOPLE.....because i just luv all of yous ppl....hehehe....okay enuf of that n let's get back to the title of my post tis time...

GIRL, INTERUPTED......it is actually a film adapted from a best selling novel by Susanna Kaysen... if i'm not mistaken this whole story was inspired on a true story of an 18 yrs old girl who questionably diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) - (like i know wut the heck is tat) and her life-altering-paradigm-shift stay at a famous psychiatric hospital in the turbulent late 1960's, correct me if m wrong ya.....

It was all started when the girl, Susanna (Winona Ryder) was found attempting to commit suicide of overdose aspirin PLUS vodka (wut are u thinking girl....hehehe) She refused to many that she hadn't and she extends her stay for over year in the asylum (to be precise.... it was 18 months in the crib).....rebels against the head nurse played by Whoopi Goldberg and top psychiatrist (Vanessa Redgrave) instead, she decided to befriends with some of the loonies which one of them is this seductively charismatic sociopath named Lisa (all time favorite actress - Hootchie Mama Mama Mia Angelina Jolie). As she learns of having her freedom not only of getting out the mental hospital but also free from wut she's suffering, Susanna finally let herself open confronting the person who terrifies her the most; HERSELF....

Okay it wudn't be fair if i rate this movie a 4 or 5 stars movie just simply because i already fall in luv with the plots....besides....i dun even got a chance to read the original masterpiece by this Susanna Kaysen....so m not gonna rate any here....y dun u watch it and put the numbers urself ya.....and as for me....i really like to watch it n as usual, i dun think i do mind watching for a second or being the third timer for any wut i claim my fav muvee ya.....wut makes me really enjoy watching the piece is how the director hands on on each of te character in every of the scene. I seriously feel that i was brought  in the middle of the asylum's corridor looking with the sides of my eyes on how all this psycho women act. PSYchocis btul.... i was embraced by all the emotional and the details.....for so many moments, i was forgotten m watching all these well known actress - all i see was the psychopath SIKOS....uhuhuhu n the lesson that i cud forsee here is allowing urself to be vulnerabled is nothing any closer to weaknesses but only to self freedom n maturity.....there u go...ive said it....wut do you think ppl.....for those who aren't watching it yet....i wud really like to recommend u ppl to watch n dun hesitate to drop any comment ya.... One of the story suitable for those who think that they r psycho but not really to the extent of CRAZY la kot kang x sah solat n puase plak.....so go rent or buy the DVD watch it and ENJOY ya.....hope u guys like it....

Best regards,

Quote of The Day - 01

"As yesterday is a history not a memory - just don't let it pass"

                                                                                                                              - Hafiez Mohamed -

Salam korang....

As u can read above, that is my quote for the day ya.....if u guys ever watched the 1st kungfu panda the quote 

"yesterday is a history, tomorrow is a mystery and today is a gift....that's y it's called a present" maybe sounds very familiar to u ppl....

I ever once argued wif a fren s we were trying to remember what was the quote again and he thinks it was a memory instead history....and s for me i was strongly believe it was history (which at the end of the day i was right though...uhuhuhu). Come to the sense, there's an explanation on every words used in any quotes ya....

I still remember my form 2 history teacher used to tell us on how important each and every of us to learn history. History is something that we learned so that we can take it as a lesson in order to improve ourselves for a better us. If what we r hearing from a history is sumthing we think was totally a mistake, stop and think, take  charge on it, learn the lessons and try not to repeat the same mistakes again. Instead, think on how to avoid the mistake in order to have a complete better current view. So what with this 'let past pass' ...hmmm....one might think this is just another statement of not being responsible of wut just happened...uhhuhu...n m not asking u to feel all miserable of not letting the past pass ya....stop wasting time putting urself in the misery mode, just stand up tall, take a full charge and use the energy to think on how to improve ourselves from the lessons learned.....GOT IT PPL.....

N memory....Yup there's nothing wrong with it....my explanation is - history will take us to a different level of the way we think....it gives u benefits out of it besides leaving it as just another memory...

So korang ...that is my quote for today....it is just sumthing that came across my mind which i seriously wud like to share it with the WORLD.....world ker??? Ya ..ppl that revolve around me is part my world ya...papepn....m looking forward for ur comments ya.... " As yesterday is a history and not a memory - dun let it just pass ya... " till then - Salam and Hadios......

Movie Review : Baik - Baik Sayang The Movie

Salam korang....

Hope all of you out there are in a good shape ya....
Tonight m so gonna write a review on a movie....i seriously can't wait to review this movie right after watching the movie myself....uhuhuu punyelah excited....

It was last Monday after breaking fast for my 3rd day of puasa 6 (aka Fasting 6 Days of Shawwal - it's a sunna and religiously recommended ya...) i stopped by at one of the DVD store (EZY video) near the place i had my meal....browsing thru all da DVDs i realized there r many new DVDs coming out....since it has been a while i haven't rent any DVDs (since b4 Ramadhan if m not mistaken la...), i decided to rent a few....I rented

• Wizards of Waverly Place The Movie....
• Source Code
• Baik - Baik Sayang The Movie

So the movie that m gonna review is da 3rd from the list....yeah...s u can see s in the title of this entry....
BBS was an Indonesian movie starring all 4 members of WALI band....the genre of the movie is more like luvey duvey  kinda thing but not to the stage of JIWANG-KARAT-MENETES-TAK-HENGAT-DUNIA like this but a casual one yet very sweet like tis,....i guess....and that's not really my main point for this movie....hehehe

What attracted me the most to watch the movie right towards the end is more on the originality of the movie itself....I cud say that almost 1/3 of the movie was shooted in this Islamic boarding school (they called it Pondok but not really a sekolah pondok..tis one was so high end sekolah pondok....) which known as La Tansa.....and yes.....i love all the scenes at the school like A LOT la korang......u guys shud watch this movie....totally recommended by me......instead of LASKAR PELANGI, AYAT-AYAT CINTA.....tis is another Indonesian movie that i seriously dun mind watching it again n again....uhhuhu....i think it based on the real life of the members of WALI kot....

I got to tell u guys....this sekolah pondok was so modern.....they used Arabic Language and English as the main language....they have brass band n the management kind of lenient on music talents too.....wahh.....best siot.....n it look so real n according to Syah ....his ustaz ever told him once last time....there is such school in Indonesia ya.....apart of all my craziness of the scenes at the school.... If it happen that u guys watch the movie.....u guys will have the opportunity to see the WALI band members to communicate in Arabic.....n guess what?????? It sounded SO GLER natural....s if they really can speak tis language....(well i think they do posses the capability in this language since it was written in the synopsys that the movie is actually bout their life anyway) tp mmg best r korang.....they r using tis daily arabic language like tis....so pure n natural....even though it's only like few words...i already think it's so authentic.....( u shud listen to Apoy as he speaks arabic....cam ustaz siot...dhla muka ala2 schematic diagram camtuh....)

The plots were normal but the small little details make this movie almost at the par as for me.....the easy to digest and a gud quality of cinematography plus the natural acting from all of the actors and actress.....m officially recommend tis movie to be watched by all especially all of my friends who is reading my post ne k....

and again....I'M HIGHLY RECOMMENDING THIS MOVIE TO BE WATCHED YA.....hehehe mmg best....n tetibe citer ne jd sgt sweet s i already like it alot ya...

For those who can't afford to buy nor rent the DVD, there are like everywhere in YOUTUBE...n i dun really encourage u guys but please watch the movie and do drop me some comment here on this post regarding ur opinion bout the movie ya....HADIOS n salam ya.....

Sharing is Caring : 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

Salam korang....

Uhuhu...finally m alone again in the cave wut ppl called room...ya my room...after da week full of activities...today......Sunday - 18th of September 2011 i decided to write few words for my blog...

It was all started one afternoon if m not mistaken on the 20th of July 2011, i was sent by the organization for this one course 7 Habits of Highly Effective People....the course was originally introduced by Stephen R. Covey. I first heard bout the course, when my dad had attended the same course a very long time ago. N we do have the book, but to read n try to understand the contents all by myself - TOUGH. During my matriculation, the course was again introduced to us by one of the teacher, Mr. Lee. He was given bout 1 n a half hour to explain to us almost all of the essences from the course and again - NO TIME TO DIGEST.

Briefly, i do think it's a very good course to attend, it took me 2 n half day to complete the course which according to my trainer it's still too pack. The course suppose to be held in 7 days time with each habit to be introduced each day.... 

Hmm....okay...Frankly speaking, I was attracted the most to a concept taught in the course which is TEACH TO LEARN. Well this is something that i've been practiced all this while especially when learning any new thing!!! In the course, it was stated as for the concept....

• When we listen with the intent to teach, we learn at a deeper level.
• When we teach, we gain new insight and our learning expands.

I do believe what was stated is part of learning process and s for me, apart of learning from mistakes, this is something which i learned the best.....so from time to time i'll try to write wut i've learned from the course just to share with all of my friends out there ya.....uhuhuu

Btw korang....do let me know ape korang think bout this by dropping some comments ya.....uhuhuhuh

Trick or Treats - Strawberry Cupcakes/Kek Cawan Strawberi

Uhuhuh....i promised my frens that i'll update my blog last nite....but i was too tired after the berdarah whole weekend outing ya....m sorry for that n  m only hv the energy to write my blog this morning after that long 'like a baby' sleep....hehehe

It was 9th of Syawal, Friday nite all of us had planned to have our first gathering in Syawal. The gathering took place at anak felda's place. In the middle of planning for it (as usual we skyped to discuss bout stuff nowadays) so i asked them "do you guys want me to prepare anything" n macamkukata was asking for cupcakes.....yup that is my post all about this time.....Trick or Treats - Strawberry Cupcakes

In order to make cupcakes....the most important things is to actually finding the right recipe since m not chef to invent one ya....so i wud really like trying from http://www.harwoodpodcast.com/. I've tried few cupcake recipes from this page like the choc cupcakes, carrot cupcakes and the orange cupcakes. So far all of them turn into cupcakes...hehee. To see the recipe and full video of making the cupcakes, please click on the link ya....

As for me i wud like to review the cupcakes and share my experience of completing my so called baking project....

Hehe....frankly speaking, it's not as easy s watching the preparation in the video.....it seriously took me almost 2 hours jst to finish baking together wif the frosting ya.....i started at 8 pm and only finished at 10...uhuhu and the worst part is to do da cleaning...wakakaka wif all the butter, eggs and stuff.....uwaaa.....nightmare siot....luckily Syah was offering for help....he's the one who did all the cleaning while m scooping the batter into the cupcakes liner n preparing for the frosting....

After that never endless effort....finally the cupcakes is ready......okaylah...not so bad....i dun really pipe the frosting because i dun bother to use any other baking utensil that will only lead me to this cleaning again....uhuhuso wut i did....i just scooped the frosting on top of the cakes, cut the fresh strawberries into halves then put it on top of the frosting....uhuhu

The looks....wokay la....the taste....macam2 review....Syah said it tasted like banana cake, my sis in law told me she cud taste vanilla in it....which it's one of the ingredient...but my frens' reviews were kind of 'membina' r....i tasted it myself....n i think not so bad....it just that the cupcake is a lil bit sweet....especially after with all that frosting....so anak felda's prepared the plain tea with less sugar in it which was a perfect combination.... Sweet treats with less sugar tea-o mmg layan n terbaik r....credit to the host-anak felda for having us in ya....uhuhuuhu

okay people....i uploaded the pictures of the cakes....do let me know wut u think ya....
