what a movie it was? a perfect one!

today was wonderful. i want to make something different for my post this time. i want to tell my day backwards just like the way the benjamin button movie's clock moves. it was made because the clock maker wants to go back to the time when his son was still alive before the second world war. i also want to move back through time because i still want to rewind my whole time of school in canisius junior high again. it was fantastic. i had tons of fun during my school here. i am so sad that in 3 or 4 months-time, i will not be in junior high again and have to separate to some of my friends. i had so many friends here and i feel very comfortable with them. i feel that i have so many brothers.

my day ended with an outing with my mother and brother and also mike, my brother's friend. we watched a movie called slumdog millionaire. it was given 10 nomination of oscar awards and won eight of them including the best director and also best picture. yeah and just like the achievements that it gets, it was perfect! absolutely perfect, combining the great story and also the presentation as well as the performance.

Slumdog Millionaire is a 2008 British film directed by Danny Boyle, written by Simon Beaufoy, and co-directed in India by Loveleen Tandan.[2] It is an adaptation of the Boeke Prize-winning and Commonwealth Writers' Prize-nominated novel Q & A (2005) by Indian author and diplomat Vikas Swarup.

Set and filmed in India, Slumdog Millionaire tells the story of a young man from the slums of Mumbai who appears on the Indian version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? (Kaun Banega Crorepati, mentioned in the Hindi version) and exceeds people's expectations, arousing the suspicions of the game show host and of law enforcement officials.

After screenings at the Telluride Film Festival and the Toronto International Film Festival, Slumdog Millionaire initially had a limited North American release on November 12, 2008 by Fox Searchlight Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures, to critical acclaim and awards success. It later had a nationwide release in the United Kingdom on January 9, 2009 and in the United States on January 23, 2009.[3] It premiered in Mumbai on January 22, 2009.[4]

Slumdog Millionaire was nominated for ten 2008 Academy Awards and won eight, the most for any film that year, including Best Picture and Best Director. It also won five Critics' Choice Awards, four Golden Globes, and seven BAFTA Awards, including Best Film. Despite the film's success, it is the subject of controversy concerning its portrayals of Indians and Hinduism as well as the welfare of its child actors.


before going out to grand indonesia, i were asking my friends to come to the mall together. but just 2 of them agreed to join me. my mom also wanted to come, so i think it's not the day for 'jalan bareng' again. i finally decided to go there just with my family.

before that, i played tennis! rene had decided to join me. i did just fine. i finally get my skills again, though i didnt manage to return all the balls into the baseline and perfectly above the net, but i think i've got 80% of it. probably 85. with that, so almost all of my lists to make this year as a turning point year is going to reach the finishing point. it's all done, except one this big thing, my diet! i have a plan to be in shape at least in june. it was totally ruined. my mind was uncontrollable these days. i just have to do something to stop eating. and for these easter days, i decided to prohibit my cemilan. it's the whole idea of me getting fat. i just want to eat trice a day but that's it! no more cemilan.

before tennis at 11, i was still in bu yaya's house. i were there to sleep over with my friends and just to stay with them as my interchange delegation and that we had promised to never ever lose this nice relationship. i woke up today at about 8 and listening to my ipod for about half an hour. okay.. i think this whole post is getting more and more screwed up. i hope that this post will make you happy. i really really want to move through time again. just for this one single post though.

good morning!!!
