Figures, after all this time I was occupied by my job, I lost sense of my movie-watching-progress. And I mean cinematic movies, not the usual drama-drama. So, after quick skimming on several movie database websites, I gathered this current to-watch list, although the funny thing is I can't quite remember whether I had actually seen the movie or is it just my imagination.

  • Donnie Brasco (simply because I love Depp's movies)
  • The Blind Side (some says this one is sweet to watch in 2009)
  • Inglourious Basterds (some says this one is the best summer movie in 2009)
  • The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (again, simply because it's Depp)
  • Remember The Titans (Denzel, what else?)
  • Deja Vu (again, Denzel, what else?)
  • Schindler's List (the plot, intriguing)
  • The Usual Suspect (I knew I've had this movie sometime in my laptop, but suddenly it's gone, so here we are on the treasure-hunt once again)
  • City of God (crazy, I've never been able to find the perfect time to watch)
  • One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (nyaaah, the plot story is so cute)
  • 12 Angry Men (A dissenting juror in a murder trial slowly manages to convince the others that the case is not as obviously clear as it seemed in court, yummy!)
  • American Beauty (mainly because it was such a big hit and I kind of miss the moment)
  • American History X (Edward Norton!!! Miss him a bit)
  • Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain (or widely known as Amelie, French movie, me-likey)
  • A Clockwork Orange (I felt a bit carried out with its weird-sense of plot)
  • L.A. Confidential (A shooting at an all night diner is investigated by three LA policemen in their own unique ways, hmm..)
  • Reservoir Dogs (did I or did I not have watched this one?)
  • The Prestige (magician, great!)
  • No Country for Old Men (seems such a serious movie, need it for refreshing)
  • There Will Be Blood (epic movie?)
  • Snatch (this one got me in deja vu state, did I or did I not have watched this one?)
  • Trainspotting (I'm such a sucker for good 'ol days hits)
  • Groundhog Day (comedy, a relief!)
  • Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (need to update my oldies library)
  • Twelve Monkeys (I honestly have no idea as to why I want to see this one, hahahaha)
  • Shaun of the Dead (comedy but not that comedy, hmm.. interesting..)
  • The Day the Earth Stood Still (nyaah, this one is pretty risky, since I just want to take a sip at how it feels to watch sci-fi once again)

Any other recommendation?

A couple of months ago (seemed seriously like YEARS ago), I was involved in an engagement, nope, not the one prior to any wedding ( I wishhhh! ), but a project engagement. The time period was typically short, one month and extended into another month. But hell if that was the first time (in a really long time) I felt like jumping out of my 35th floor office cubicle.. not to the ground, mind you, but rather jumping into an embrace of a gentleman ( halahhh ). Yeah, anyway, in this so called time-period of the project, semangat nasionalisme gw sangat membara dan I ended up staying at office real late, mostly at 11 PM, but it is not rare that I went home nearing dawn ( okeh, lebay ). It's all up to my wallet situation, really. When me having no shit, I insisted to go home at 11 PM since it was the last train to catch up. Standard conversation with the cab driver Supir: Malem, Mba. Mau dianter ke mana? Gw: Malem, Pak. Ke stasiun Sudirman ya. Supir: Loh? Malem-malem gini masih ada

I missed traveling bad. It's been 1.5 years without traveling and sightseeing to new places I've never been to. My furthest spot was Bandung and even that brought so many nostalgic feelings, like when I attended work-related meetings, or when my team had a short getaway trip, or my past dating venues. Sigh. I wish this blasted pandemic get over soon, and everyone treat Covid19 as meh as any other influenza variants. Just rest in bed, drink Vitamin C, pop some pills and you'll be alright. No ICU, no breathing trouble, no damaging internal organs. I mean, who knew right? Who knew we can go to Banks or supermarket wearing any type of masks and not get arrested or even eyed suspiciously.  I have some progress over life, well, not sure if I can really call it a progress. I have been dating my SO for quite a while, had some turbulences, undergoing some 'oh-i-didn't-know-that' moments, doing that marry-or-not-to-marry type of dance, had some fights, major apologies and

There are always those little bit of moments that reminded us that life is sweet. Like a couple of days ago, colleague of mine asked about some Sentinel stuff, and someone responded swiftly because he just went through the exact same thing. When I teased him about it, since he ended up not going with the client he's checking the Sentinel with, he said, "This is why I believe everything in life happens for a reason." It made me stopped, and smile, and felt that little reminder that yeah life mysteriously works that way.  Yesterday, I watched a movie called All The Bright Places, starred Elle Fanning. I watched her YT video on Variety channel -Actor on Actor- with Jenna Ortega and I was impressed by how she carries herself throughout the talk, so young yet so mature. Jenna Ortega also did the same, with more vulnerable emotions displayed and I can totally feel her. But "Wednesday" is already my favorite Netflix series, so I've seen Jenna. But Elle Fanning? Hav
