May 2016

Book i've finished :

-Series of unfortunate events : Vile Village and Hostile Hospital

- Love me if you dare : novel translation from chinese here : lmfyd.blogspot.com

I read that after i finished the drama which is gem and the novel story really gave insight on the hole in the drama like always although i love the drama very much too.

Currently studying korean books so havent touched any other e-books because it will surely diverse my attention from that pdf.

K- Drama :

- Good bye Mr black : 3.5/5, no plan to rewatch. I cant buy the romance in this drama but the story keeps me going with twist and turn.

- Entertainer : Honestly havent picked this drama up again, i am waiting until it finished to decide whether to watch it or not

- Oh Hae Young Again : This drama is popular right now, i know, i have watched 1st ep which is rather messy editing scene but i will definitely watch it after it finished.

- Mirror of the witch : So far so good, this is what i watch every weeks because i have been so curious how this story will turn out. Sae Ron and Shi Yoon chemistry is good!

- Master of Revenge : Idk how i manage to watch it this far, this drama makes you keep hitting next after you watched one episode of it, underrated in many ways because of the first title was God of Noodles -_-,

C-Drama :

Dont ask how i switch to Chinese Drama after all of this korean learning. I just clicked My Amazing Boyfriend and i am hooked to chinese drama. The story and editing has improved much through years.

- My Amazing Boyfriend : 5/5. Idea of MLFAS is being used but the story line is completely different and i have to admit i like this one better. The couple is so cute, although it is dubbed but their chemistry is love. I love the editing and sound effect too, It feels like watching variety at the same time lol and so far i have confirmed that all of my friends that kinda hate dubbing like this drama because they are absorbed in the story they forget it was being dubbed. I absolutely will rewatch this.

- Love Me if You Dare : 5/5. Where have i been i just found this gem. Psychopath story brought out well with romance and technology. I love Andy! It can help people escape from death omg. This one too worth of rewatch.

- Love weaves through Millenium : 3.5/5 this was good at beginning but start dragging at the end. Probably because this was remake from Queen In Hyun's man with far more episodes than that. The ending is supposedly to be happy i know but they are just like 'fast-forward' to happy ending.

- Beautiful Secret : 2.5/5. The sypnosis is very very misleading i end up skipping and fast forwarding most episode because i like the OTP *sigh*

- Les Interpretes : This is still on going but i think i am gonna love this because i love this drama so far. The love hate relationship between leads was played out well and their french- chinese omg, i know i am being biased because i love learning language but still this is worth to watch so far.

I am being so busy catching chinese drama i missed that i dropped most of the korean shows except Half Moon Friends. i will pick them up later.

April 2016

The last day of April means writing a new post of things i have vicariously experienced (means that i watch or i read lol) during this month. I am not really good at this but i will do my best

Drama :
- Descendant of the sun (4,9/5), almost perfect if not for the missing things here and there in the last episode. being able to walk alongside Yoo Si Jin and Kang Mo Yeon is my pleasure and i think im falling in love too with the Captain. It can end at 12th episode with perfect score though but the rest of episodes was still a guilty pleasure to sink in "Yoo Si Jin's syndrome" :P
- Good Bye Mr Black, it is almost finished with two episodes more next week and i almost dropped it if not because of Moon Chae Won. Swan's life and background is so sad i can feel it and cry alongside with her but im not buying her romance with Black, i even feel Song Jae Rim'r role treasure her more. But i guess i am not having second lead syndrome yet.
- Entertainer, It just started a week ago, so we will still need to see before we judged it. Jisung and Kang Min Hyuk on once screen and bromance, i can just watch for it if the story go to unexpected way, i am still waiting for more episode before i marathon it once and for all

- In A Good Way (rewatch for the 2nd time after 3 years passed by) It is GOOD and RARE to find taiwan drama that in any means, not at all, being draggy.
- Nice Guy (rewatch for the 2nd? or 3rd times, the after effect of Song Joong Ki i guess), and it is still sad T__T Kang Ma Roo is such a chakhan namja.

Shows :
- Running Man 1-41, and the latest episode.
- Half Moon Friends, the children is so cute, the winner kids too, of course!
- WGM (Eric Nam and Solar couple)

List to watch :
- Love at Seventeen, it is 15 episodes drama and it caught me well, but i am waiting for it to finish first because it is just so hard to wait for one episode every week.
- Vampire Detective, i happen to really like fantasy story, so yea, i am waiting this to finish too.

Books :
-Genocidal Organ (Project Itoh) (3/5), i happened to like it until the middle, the life as assasin is fun to explore in this book, but i guess when the story becomes kind of guilt and love, i then just finished it for the sake of finishing it.
-365 Days of Wonder, inspiration come from precept of life.

This is another kind of long list too, i think i will make schedule for my korean study after this, see ya, next month, probably? lol

The first half of 2016 - Review?

Well, i probably need to find something more creative for the title of this kind of post though, but well, let's think about that later. This post will be about compilation of all book, e-book, drama, anime, comic, manga, webtoon, movie, whatever i watch or read or do vicariouly through that ;) it's about my own challenge too, probably...

- Madame Antoinne : 3/5 i get bored because they keep push and pull till the end but it is still worth to watch, mainly because the psychology case made it interesting for me
- One more happy ending : 4/5 typical romcom worth your time but definitely not for rewatch
- Signal : 4/5 i guess i should give 5/5 because i kinda want season 2, i should stop being stingy with my rating too if i get the season 2 i mean lol
- Oh My Venus : 5/5
- Page Turner : 4/5, i need the happy ending but sigh with the cliffhanger :s

Supernova : Inteligensi Embun Pagi

Supernova : Inteligensi Embun Pagi

Novel terakhir dari heksalogi Supernova karya Dee Lestari ini launching kemarin dan telah menjual lebih dari 10.000 eksemplar berttd saat preorder. Tentu saja, ini juga yang bikin saya bergadang demi preorder 5 februari kemarin, tapi di hari launching yaitu tgl 26 Februari, buku preorder yang tak kunjung sampai membuat saya purchase e-book dari playstore, jadi punya 2 copy! lol

Ini si anak bungsu yang covernya putih sendiri, dan kenapa putih, ya silahkan dibaca, dan, saya gak nyesel punya 2 copy, buku ini memang mencengangkan. perjalanan supernova sampai akhir setelah bertahun2 diikuti, akhirnya punya jawaban,yang kemudian menimbulkan pertanyaan baru tentunya.

Ini akan jadi posting penuh SPOILER, silahkan kalau mau dilanjutkan.

Bulu kuduk saya berdiri saat membalik halaman demi halaman,melihat pertemuan para peretas, menyaksikan cinta, mmembuka simpul demi simpul, menangis saat Alfa memilih untuk berkorban, tertawa dengan daya visual Bodhi dengan embryonic fall, terharu setelah buku ditutup, ragu, apakah ini akan menjadi yang terakhir? saya menunggu kejutan Dee yang selanjutnya, ehem, sequel? hehe

Menurut saya, ide Supernova adalah sesuatu yang simpel, kembali ke buku awal, Opto, Ergo Sum, hayoo siapa yang lupa, artinya, i choose, therefore i am. Dikemas dengan sangat apik dalam satu cerita, dengan misi yang berawal dari perbedaan persepsi. Sarvara dan Infiltran mengalami kasus yang sama, hanya mempersepsikannya secara berbeda, dan pertarungan itupun ada. Peretas sendiri, menurut saya, itu manusia yang punya pilihan, mau jadi Sarvara apa Infiltran itu terserah mereka, setelah milih jadi infiltran, ya bisa juga miliih jadi peretas lagi, why not. Semuanya direncanakan di setiap siklus yang berbeda kan. What makes it unique, of course, pengemasannya dalam bentuk gugus, dunia yang mungkin 4 dimensi, dan kemungkinan hubungannya dangan HEB alias Highly Evolved Being aka alien, whatever. Saya gak pengen spoiler lebih lanjut, kalian harus merasakan indahnya dan pusingnya jadi peretas (or at least, pembaca bakal merasa mereka juga peretas kayak saya, loh) informasi yang banyak, mengingat2 alur dan istilah dari 5 buku selanjutnya, wah ini perjalanan yang bikin saya butuh tidur tapi tak kunjung berhenti sampai buku ditutup, tentu saja. lol

Nulis lebih banyak lagi, bakal bikin otak yang baca blog ini ruwet karna saya juga ruwet. Kenapa bahasa membatasi apa yang bisa saya komunikasikan, mungkin saya harus belajar telepati supaya kalian mengerti, tapi sebagai pembaca supernova, mungkin akan saling mengerti, dan juga kemungkinan saya akan membuat kamus peretas yang diidam2kan Alfa lol, setidaknya "mungkin". (Apa sih!)

Segala probabilitas dan ilmu masuk ke dalam seri Supernova, kayak baca skripsi yang dikemas dalam novel, tentu saja, dapat dimengerti waktu dan tenaga yang dihabiskan untuk melakukan penelitian dan pengemasan.

Thank you so much, dear, author of Supernova, Dee Dewi Lestari. 

I love this journey and the feeling after finishing this. Overall, saya puas. Applause, 5/5. On the other hand, saya bangga, ada serial lokal, asli tulisan orang Indonesia, yang membuat saya mempunyai rasa mengantisipasi yang sama seperti saya menunggu serial Harry Potter, serial ini, mungkin adalah akhir, tapi juga awal untuk cerita yang selanjutnya, pendahuluan yang berikutnya.
