Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 09:14 AM - Personal
I was planning to write my blog yesterday. But i was too busy. Alot of works to catch up in the office. I have to finish my project and make sure it works on time, since it's going to be present in singapore.

Now, i'm a bit relax, that's why i'm writing my blog.

let me begin the story of my weekend. It was a long weekend for me. My weekend starts since Friday, June 1. Since me and my gf have not time to bring my bro and my sister in law out on weekdays, we decide to take them out for a whole day on friday.

O yeah, on thursday nite, I pick my gf up from her office. then we have a family dinner with my family at " Ikan Bakar Cianjur" restaurant. It's an indonesian restaurant, with great indo's dishes.
There are 13 of us, it costs us 470.000 rupiah. Whole my family enjoy the foods, great foods with great prices.

let's jump back to Friday. So, Me and My gf drive my bro and his wife , from one mall to the other mall. I was planning to take them to 3 malls on that day. But, they are tired, so we decide to go to two malls only which are "CitraLand" And "Taman Anggrek". we have our lunch together with my sisters. There are 8 of us. We ahve a japanese foods for lunch at "hachi hachi" restaurant in TA. it was a great restaurant and food, recommended by my youngest sister.

At 5 pm, all of us, go back home. everybody feels tired. So, we decide to stay at home. since my bro and his wife are going to prepare for their big day on saturday. My sister in law's parents reach jakarta on friday. So, my bro, his wife, my mom and dad went to visit them in their hotel at nite. Everybody rest early on that day.

On saturday, everybody are busy since morning. the girls are preparing themself and get pretty with make up in the afternoon. My elder sister called 4 make-up girls to my house to make up around 10 womens in the house. that's include the bride's side too.

I also pick up my gf early in the morning, since she helping us, she need to be make-up too. I accompany her to do medicure and pedicure, early in the morning.

Time goes so fast, I starts to get busy and went to the restaurant at 4 pm and prepare stuff for the party together with my cousin. That's the first help that i get when i reach there.

After a while, everybody shows up. and we were in a karaoke room, for family ceremony "Phang teh" (where the bride and the groom have to serve the elder family member with tea, and the elder must give a lease a red pocket to them)> it's a must ceremony for us.

The party starts at 7.00pm. Me, both my sisters, my bro in law and Richarc( my lil sis's bf) are getting prepare and try to make party goes smoothly. My gf and my cousin were helping as receptionist.

The party goes really slow, all because of the stupid MC(master of ceremony) she promise us to come at 6 pm and give some briefing. but she shows up at 7.15 pm. Can u imagine that?

Lucky, everything goes smoothly at the end, everybody were happy. including me. We were a great team :)

After the party over, I drive my gf to her house and hang out in her house for a while then i go back home.

On sunday morning, my bro and his wife went to bali for honeymoon. Me and my gf spend our time by having a good lunch then watch "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End". It was a great movie. Check out my review on the previous entry. At nite, we have a great dinner with My family and my bro's wife family in "Sim Yam" restaurant. Since they are going to go back to taiwan the nextday.

My bro going to spend their honeymoon till this thursday and go back to US on friday. Hem.. i think I'm going to miss them.

So, How is ur weekend?

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End : Review 
Tuesday, June 5, 2007, 09:06 AM - Movie Reviews


I watched this movie on sunday afternoon. I was planning to watch this movie a week ago, but I don't get the tickets. Eventhough, I was in the queue line for half a hour, I still don't get the tickets.

Last sunday, I got the tickets. The second week is not as crowded as the first week.

If you already watch the first two movies, you have to watch this movie.
If you haven't watch the first two, you must get them first before watching this one.

About this movie, It was a great movie. Great Plotting, the story line is hard to guess which make you want to give a full concentration on the movie. really interesting story.

I recommended you to watch this movie.

My rating for this movie is 8/10

Busy Week, long weekend starting from tommorow. 
Thursday, May 31, 2007, 08:16 AM - Personal
it's thursday. I haven't updated my blog almost a week. I'm hoping that i'm not busy today. ?? get real ?? i'll be busy helping my family preparing my bro's wedding on 2cd june, this coming saturday.
Lucky, on friday, is a holiday. it's wesak festival, a festival for budhist.

let's flash back for a while, what did i do last weekend??

on friday, i was in my gf house hang out with her and make a plan for saturday. I was planning to pick up my dad's car, attending lunch with my co-workers and pick up my aunt.

On that day, the car wasn't ready yet. So, we have to get the car on monday. My aunt decided to come on wednesday which means we don't have to pick her up. So, i just drop some invitation cards to my mom's friend. Then, we meet my co-workers in "Mariana" Restaurant. It's a seafood buffet restaurant.

I went there at 12.30 and leave the place at 15.30. I hang out with my co-workers and my gf. I purposely ask my gf to go with me, so that, i can introduce her to them. everything went well. we were planning to watch "pirates of the caribbean - 3" at nite. We were on the queue line for more 30 minutes, still we couldn't get the tickets. The tickets were sold out. Damn, really not our day. So, we decide to walk inside the mall till 9 pm then we hang out in my gf house.

On sunday, me, my gf, my sis and my bro in law, drive two cars to pick up my mom, dad, bro and my sister in law from the airport. Lucky, the airplane is on time. When they arrived in jakarta, we directly bring them to sea food restaurant near the airport. Afther that we went back home. it's been 9 years in US. he and his wife bring us a lot of presents. I got Portable DVD burner and a wallet. Cool rite!

At nite, we, whole family, went to "Senayan City"(one of the biggest mall in jakarta and the luxury one). A lot things changed since my bro leave the country. we just want to give our best for them to enjoy their trip and their wedding ceremony this coming saturday.

that's what i do last weekend. Today is thursday. my house is really pack rite now. Two of my aunts ( mom;s sister) just reach jakarta. they stay in my house too. :) It's going to be a busy weekend.

So, my weekend starts tomorrow. we give them a good trip and wedding party in jakarta.

what's ur plan for weekend??

Back from weekend, actually i'm at work on monday. since i'm too busy doing my work. I only have time to update my movie review yesterday.
I put some movie reviews of the movies that i've been watching during weekend.

It was a busy weekend for me. It's going to be busier this coming 2 weeks. I have to help to prepare my bro's wedding on June 2,2007. Sending invitations to my family and my bro's friends.

On saturday afternoon, Me and mg gf drive my parents to airport. They are going to taiwan for celebrating my bro wedding over there. they will be back this coming sunday. There will be guests from taiwan coming together with my parents and bro.

After driving my parents to the airport, we hang out with my sister and her bf. We went to watch "Next" together. I like the movie, even it doesn't get a high rating. but i like it.

after watching movie, we decide to back home relax for a while waiting for our favorite show "American Idol". we get some snacks before our favorite show starts. That's what i do on saturday.

On sunday, I wake up early and go to temple with my gf and her sister. We were there for 3 hours till lunch time. we went there to listen an oration that given by a wise taoist teacher. There is alot things that i can grab and learn from that oration. On lunch time, we started to send invitations for my bro wedding..

I also visits my grandma and give her an invitation. it's been a while that i don't visit her. so, we sit and chat with her for a while. once, everything is done. I went back to my home try to rest and relax with my gf. My sister and her bf at home too. we decide to watch "In Her Shoes". I got the DVD. it seems like everybody tired. everyone fell a sleep while watching me. I'm the only one that still concentrate on the movie.

that's what i do on last weekend. how is ur weekend?

I watched this movie on theater last weekend. this movie is inspired by Philip K. Dick'sscience fiction short story which is " Golden Man"

The story is about a person who can see what happen in the future. For me, it was a good movie and story, eventhough, most of people don't like the ending part. It seems that it doesn't have an ending.
Some, people confuse with the movie too. it's u like to read Philip K. Dick's story, most of his stories have a weird ending. It doesn't mean the movie sucks.

I personally like this movie. it's interesting to watch.

I'm going to give this movie a rating:7/10

Lady In The Water: Reviews 
Monday, May 21, 2007, 07:13 AM - Movie Reviews


This movie is released in year 2006. It's on DVD. It's "M. Night Shyamalan's movie". It's a mistery movie. The story is great, and interesting to watch. It makes you to feel curious about what's going to happen next.

But, the ending part is a spooler. Most people don't like this movie not because of the story, but because of the ending part. It's make u think like this " hemm..hemm.. what? that's it? what?". "yup that's it's". Most of M. Night Shyamalan's movies were having the same ending plot. ;)

if you like "M. Night Shyamalan's movies", you might like this one.


My rating for this movie: 6.3/10

In Her Shoes : Review 
Monday, May 21, 2007, 07:05 AM - Movie Reviews


I watched this movie on sunday afternoon. I watched it in DVD. This movie is released in year 2005. This movie is about two sisters with different character have a fight and decide to themselves by their won way.

The plotting of the movie is simple, but it's nice to watched. The moral story is once family is always a family no matter how bad the situation is.

If you love drama, I think you need to get this DVD to fill your weekend. it's entertaining.


My rating for this movie is 7/10
