Whoops..


I only watched Gossip Girl season 3 for like only 10 episodes, and I went, "Ooof!" seeing how drastically changed each cast was. Dan Humphrey with his well-toned body, hullo? He's like this hunk emerged out of nowhere, and where the heck did the skinny-lumpy highschoolish boy go? Suddenly, he's hot! That's weird! I never like Dan's character, ever, but now I'm seriously considering changing my opinion.

Chuck Bass - Blair Waldorf, well, this two has always been my favourite, but I gotta admit, I forgot how season 2 ended. So I was a bit confused when they're both settled up as a couple. At first, it was weird, but I'm loving each and every second of the scene after Chuck said something adorable to Blair, "Everytime you forget you're Blair Waldorf, just remember, I'm Chuck Bass, and I love you." Aaaaw... I actually squealed in my seat. Hahahahahahaha.

Serena Van Der Woodsen. Well, I'm a bit tired of this character, honestly. I think it's because she reminded me of myself (er, sounds very wrong). I meant in a way that she kept looking for who she realy was. The idea of finding your identity whilst in the same time couldn't make up your mind about something is really annoying. And that's me. I mean, I've been there. It is one thing to experience it by yourself, but to have to see a movie about it, it's a whole different kind of mojo. Anyway, my interest for Serena came right back on after she's having relationship with Carter Baizen.

Actually, I have no idea who this Baizen guy is. I mean, I knew in season 1 and 2, he's supposed to be the archenemies of Chuck Bass but what the hell did he do anyway? I never seen him enough to determine what his character is. BUT after he's got involved with Serena (and especially after the wood scene where he was left alone by Serena, feeling dumb and naive), I liked him! And that's where I think Serena's character is lighten up a bit.


Hmm, who did I left out? Ha, Nate Archibald. I /hate/ his hairstyle at the first episode, but then I found my long-lost-love with this guy after episode 4 where he teased Dan Humphrey into getting to know an actress named Olivia Burke. Ooh, Nate, I loved your adorable lil smile. *sue me*

Speaking of which, Hillary Duff in Gossip Girl? What do you think about it? Me personally, I think it's lame. The only good thing about Gossip Girl is how they used new talent as their cast. Well, okay, maybe Blake Lively and Leighton Meester can not actually be considered as new talent since they've played in other series, but I think before Gossip Girl, they haven't settled their firm feet in the biz yet. But Hillary Duff? Everybody knows who she is (okay, everybody who's teen and beyond knew who she is), so why can't they find another talented refreshing young actress to fill in as Olivia Burke?

I'm not saying that her acting skill sucks, no, I just eager to see new faces. Gimme new refreshing faces and talents and characters!!!

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
