The Art of Getting By

Hola!

Ini mungkin adalah salah satu film favorit gue. Why? Karena pemerannya Emma Roberts sama Freddie Highmore. They're the best entertainers of all time.

I watch this move like over a year ago, but still. I can remember it clearly.

George (Freddie Highmore) is a fatalistic high school senior who is a gifted artist. George is often haunted by the realization that he will die someday. He ceases to complete his homework, as he feels that everything seems meaningless. As a result, he is put on academic probation. The next day, George goes up to the school roof and sees Sally (Emma Roberts) smoking. When a teacher comes up, George quickly pulls out a cigarette and takes the blame. Sally meets up with George to thank him, and though George is at first reluctant to talk to her, he soon warms up to her.
On Career Day, George meets a young artist, Dustin and is inspired by his thoughts about life. He brings Sally with him to visit Dustin and it becomes apparent that Dustin likes Sally. Sally and George start to share an interesting bond, as they become close friends.
George doesn't do his English term paper and is brought to the principal's office. The principal gives George two choices: expulsion or to do every piece of undone homework, about a years worth of assignments in three weeks. George accepts the challenge, and goes about finishing every homework assignment given to him during his senior year.

Disini Freddie Highmore jadi pinteeerrr banget gambar, sketch gituu.. Gambar-gambarnya juga kebanyakan doodle. But unfortunately, he's not good at draw so he used a stunt for it. -_-

Pancasila, Nasionalisme, dan Eyangkung

Mungkin Eyangkung (Eyang Kakung, Kakek dalam bahasa Jawa) benci disebut-sebut sebagai pahlawan. Tapi, memang kenyataannya begitu. Tidak akan ada Indonesia tanpa Eyangkung dan para pahlawan yang lain. Eyangkung saya bernama Eyang Toegijo Kartosandjojo, beliau lahir di Solo pada 17 Agustus 1919. Eyangkung bersekolah di Neutrale H. I. S Solo dan beliau berprestasi di sekolahnya. Karena prestasi itulah beliau dibebaskan dari les persiapab masuk M. U. L. O. dan pada akhirnya beliau berhasil masuk tanpa melalui tes ujian masuk. Sebagai cucu kesekian, saya sangat bangga mempunyai sosok Eyangkung. Karena beliau, saya selalu bersumpah akan membawa nama baik keluarga. Saya nggak mau menjelekkan nama baik keluarga besar, saya nggak mau dibilang, "cucu pahlawan kok seperti itu?" (Walaupun saya ini memang tergolong bandel sih, cuma bandelnya masih sebatas wajar). Walaupun beliau wafat setahun sebelum saya lahir, banyak cerita yang sudah saya dengar maupun foto-foto beliau yang saya l...

Art (part n)

The night is becoming my enemy right now. It is collided between what I feel deep in the heart and what I think deep in the mind. I do live in world that is no fairytale exist. Pathethic. Human lives by expecting on someone else, thus they expect too high. When she / he can not be something or someone they wished to be, they get mad. You will be nagged every single hours, hearing those non stop harsh words. Are we wrong for being here? To live in this same world and to breathe the same air? Deep in the mind, I hate to live in this world. I hate to grow up. I hate to have a lot of responsibilities. I just want to be kids again. To play all day long until you run out of air, and just ignore the adults words without getting worry. But in the other side, Lately for the past 6 months, I have found a new inspiration. Of someone that I don't brave to say out loud. Of someone that easily slips to become the new art. He is the most beautiful art, a thing that easily distract me from hi...

If we were real, Would you feel any bless? Would you give us the chance? Would you stay when I ask? If we were real, Could I feel jealous of the other girl? Could I smile everytime you call? Could I ask you to feel the way I feel? Because if we were real, I would always keep you safe. I would keep you by my side. I would miss to hug you tight. I would make you smile and laugh. Because if we were real, It is like a dream come true. To have someone as strong as I am by my side. To have someone smarter than I am. To have someone braver than I am. Because if we were real, It is like having two alphas become one. United as a double power. United as a one true pairing. United as a one heart.

Sarkas

Mungkin memang saya yang terlalu baik, saya yang bodoh, saya yang terlalu naif, dan saya yang selalu berpikir optimis. Semua ucapan orang yang memperingatkan agar selalu hati-hati... Saya abaikan. Saya mau tidak mau menerima semua resiko walaupun kini saya tahu rasanya. Dunia itu kejam dan saya seharusnya tahu. Saya seharusnya mendengar setiap rambu yang ditujukan kepada saya. Rasanya? Marah. Sedih. Merasa bodoh. Semua menjadi satu. Saya kini tahu seperti apa diri anda yang sesungguhnya. Anda.... bukan hanya seorang, tapi kumpulan orang yang sejenis. Hah, ternyata, wajah kalian pun bukan hanya dua. Namun terbagi menjadi seratus. Kalian dengan eloknya berganti wajah pada setiap orang. Ternyata, mulut manis kalian tidak semanis yang selama ini saya dengar. Mulut kalian memang manis di depan saya, tapi pahit di belakang saya. Ternyata, kalian bahkan kejam antar sesama kalian. Sangat tidak manusiawi. Lalu, Apakah saya masih pantas menyebut kalian manusia? Kalian senang menyerang ora...
