Kuinginkan dan Kubutuhkan

I'm not very proud of this.

Tapi aku sedang mengalami fase disorientasi, terjebak antara apa yang aku inginkan dan apa yang aku butuhkan.

Hidup ini tidak pernah mudah. Aku tahu, hidup ini seperti belantara luas yang tidak cukup berbekalkan secarik peta dan kompas, namun juga pengalaman dan pelajaran yang terpetik.

Di saat posisi karirku yang sedang berada di atas, terkadang aku merenung, bahkan mendesah, untuk meyakinkan diri.

"Apakah ini yang aku mau?"

"Can we do something that we really like?"

Aku suka dengan pekerjaanku sekarang, hanya saja di setiap elemen waktu, terketuk hatiku untuk mencari yang lain, yang bisa memuaskan batinku.

Bolehkah aku berharap? Aku tahu aku terdengar egois, tapi aku tidak tahu apa yang harus kulakukan. Di antara enigma dan dogmatis yang bersisian, aku memilih untuk merancang idealismeku. Yang mungkin akan membuat orang-orang mengerutkan kening, tidak percaya.

Aku masih terus berdoa, dan berharap. Bahwa suatu hari nanti akan ada saatnya buatku memanjakan diri dengan segala kesukaanku, favoritku, dan tidak perlu takut untuk menghabiskan waktu di dalamnya. 

Pelajaran kali ini yang harus aku raih adalah kesabaran. Bersabar untuk meraih apa yang aku impikan.

Something Borrowed



This is the most realistic movie I've ever seen. 

It was adopted from a book with the same title (authored by Emily Giffin). It tells the friendship between Rachel and Darcy, and the complicated feeling from Rachel towards Dex, since Dex was Darcy's fiance. 

The storyline went smooth, and the flashbacks were plotted on the right tracks. If you really pay attention to the story, you can feel a mixed feeling, between love and hatred, towards Rachel and Darcy as well.

They both are just human beings, who are not perfect, and can be selfish too. Rachel had been hiding her feeling all the time, because she didn't wanna hurt Darcy. And Darcy was completely happy as she would be a charming bride to her good-looking and sexy fiance, Dex. She thought that everything under control, until she found out what really happened.

If the infidelity was not the only conflict which should be underlined from this story, well, I'd say there are others. Other things that we can conclude of. The friendship that was tested, the unexpected betrayal, etc. And in the end, we just have to accept that this is how people gonna react in the real life.

The problem was cliche, but the resolution of the plot, was charmingly realistic. That is why I gave 5 out of 5 stars to this movie.

I also read in the internet that it has a sequel called 'Something Blue'. I cannot wait to watch it (if it plans to be adopted to a movie!). 

It is a recommended movie. :)
