WHAT HAPPENED TO LEANDRO MOLDES???

   Back in 2000, when i was in the second grade of Junior High School, one day i listened to one song on my radio, it was a sad and romantic song titled "girl", sung by a boy named Leandro (later on i knew his full name was Leandro Moldes). it became one of my fave song at that time though i had not seen his face. Then, time went by, it has been 11 years since i heard the song for the first time, a few days ago this memory about him and his song popped up on my mind and.. i wonder about him eversince, where in the world is Leandro now? ( i heard he now lives in Germany), what does he do for a living? is he okay now? but more over....why he stopped being a singer when he only appeared with one album, i think he has a beautiful voice, why he quit? oh Leandro, where are you now? i miss u oh so bad :(

for a reminder, here's i show u his songs, it's kinda oldschool but still a beautiful voice and song to enjoy, taken from youtube

Leandro ~ Girl

Leandro~ What Will I Become

   Apparently it is not only me who is now curious about him, i seen so many people who feel the same with me, on the internet, especially youtube. He's so mysterious, why did such a talented kid disappear when he was on the top of his stardom? some people even said that he died, hah really? but i never found any article on the internet says that he died? lol get real people, i don't know hy but i'm pretty sure he's somewhere on the other half of the globe and HE IS DOING OKAY ^^ . Maybe any of you who are reading this post was or is still a fan of Leandro, i hope u could tell me about her current condition, or if it's Leandro himself reading this, i just want you to know that I MISS U.

"my sister's keeper"
casts: Cameron Diaz, Alec Baldwin, Jason Patric, Abigail Breslin, Thomas Dekker, Sofia Vassilieva
year of production: 2009

   I watched a very sad movie today, the title is "my sister's keeper". Actually it was released on 2009, but better late than never, right???. When i watched the movie i was like "oh sh*t, this movie is really touching", and it's true, i was moved by the movie because, oh well, for you who already seen it, u can feel the emotion of the movie. i was crying like a baby, fortunately i was watching it on my own, otherwise, someone would see me broke down in tears. i will never let anybody see me crying because of a movie, sometimes, if it happens, i'd cover up my face with hands or handkerchief, kind of embarrassing, i guess.

   Okay, the movie itself  tells about a family, where a spouse, Brian and Sara who have 2 kids, Kate and  Jesse, have to deal with a bitter reality that their first daughter, Kate, was diagnosed from rare leukemia, all of  a sudden, their whole world is turned upside down. Following the doctor's advice, they should undergo in-vitro fertilisation, so, here's the deal, they need to have another baby whom they can get advantages from  for the sake of  Kate, the baby was engineered to be a perfect donor for kate. The baby eventually born, she was named Anna. Eversince Anna was born she's been undergoing many surgeries in order to save Kate's life, but at the age of 13, she sues her parents for what she calls "medical emancipation", she hires a lawyer to do that. Okay, at first, i thought that Anna was a wicked young sister  for doing such thing and let her own sister die, but i was wrong, she does that under Kate's permission because Kate no longer wants to be alive, she's kinda tired dealing with her disease, pretty sad, huh??? :(((

   Kate herself has a boyfriend named Taylor who has the same disease but he eventually passed away, so, Kate just wants to follow him. One day, at the hospital, after chitchatting with her mom, and giving her mom her  own hand-made scrapbook, Kate passed away while hugging her mom, and that's all, i was broke down in tears from the beginning till the end. I think it's the saddest movie i've ever seen.

"Secret Garden"

By: Restina

I feel you in my blood

running through my veins

and into my heart

you steal my breath

and take my soul away...

You are my sunshine

that shines all over me

your smile cheers me up

and you are the key to my secret garden

how painful is this love

to let me fall apart

and how beautiful it is

it makes me smile everyday

so please, reach out to my hand

take me wherever you go

i will sacrifice my whole life

just to be with you...

Jika kucari sampai kemanapun

jika aku masih belum sepenuh hati mencintai-Nya

aku takkan pernah menemukan cinta itu

cinta yang tak pernah melukai

cinta yang tak bersyarat

cinta yang tak pernah menuntut

namun selalu memberi dalam ikhlas

ya, itulah cinta dari Tuhan

cinta yang tulus terhadap umat-Nya

Aku takkan pernah ingin menukarnya dengan apapun

karena aku tak butuh cinta penuh kepalsuan

yang ada saat ragawi masih sempurna,

namun luntur disaat menua

yang ada saat harta berlimpah

namun hilang disaat semuanya musnah...

Tuhan....... biarpun seluruh dunia membenciku

kuingin KAU selalu mencintaiku

Senja

Aku ingin menyelam di samudera hatinya
ingin ku berlayar dengan sampan cinta yang ku rakit
namun malam terlalu angkuh untuk bersandar
hingga ku tak sanggup tuk melabuhkan hati ini

ku tatap langit-langit kamar di kesendirian
dia sepi tapi tak pernah merasa sunyi....
hanya atap tua yang tak bisa memberi jawaban
tapi sedikit resah kutitipkan di mimpi malam ini
ya, kusimpan cinta di celah hatiku
kurasakan rindu di tepian kalbu

Ah, ingin kupendam sendiri saja sampai waktu berlalu
tapi hari-hariku resah dan penuh rindu
cinta ini lekat di sanubari, tumpah di pelupuk hati
bila aku mengadu pada langit kekar
dia hanya memberi malam tuk membingkai cinta
aku hanya ingin katakan "aku cinta padamu".

"patah hati"

Palembang 2005-2010

Langkah ini mulai redup di relung kehidupan
terdampar perih dalam lorong-lorong waktu
aku hanya bisa merasakan hampa dan layu
"menyadari bahwa cinta ini telah mati"

Saat ku terdiam bersama imaji-ku
ku tahu bahwa cakrawala masih tegar di kaki bukit
ku tahu bahwa bumi masih berotasi, memberi malam dan mimpi
namun terlalu dalam luka di palung hatiku
hingga mungkin begitu teramat sakit yang kurasakan

Bila esok masih ada harapan untuk tahtakan cinta ini
akan kuhiasi  dengan bukit do'a dan telaga kasih
bila aku sepi oleh canda tawamu
akan kulewati hariku mencari senyum yang kau sembunyikan

Saat sepi akrab menyapa hari-hari ku yang berwarna
mungkin malaikat lelah membawaku terbang
hingga aku pun jatuh di sudut harapan yang kosong

Cinta ini telah berlalu dan pergi
kini tinggal sepi bersandar di kisi hatiku
aku hanya dahan rentan yang rapuh tersentuh angin
dan takkan pernah sanggup menopang badai
kau pun tahu bahwa "aku luka yang pernah terluka"
mungkin takkan ada lagi cinta sejati
karena setiap kumencarinya
dia selalu lari dan pergi....

Today, i wanna share y'all about my favorite flicks, since i have much spare time at home, so i usually buy DVDs (FYI, i buy pirated copy DVDs, for financial reason ^_^) and then watch them by myself or along with my sisters, i prefer drama, drama-comedy, romantic-comedy and u know family movie, yeah...stuffs like that :))). I don't like movies about war and horror, okay.... sometimes i watch horror movies but it's not my first priority, besides i am kinda fainthearted person, my imagination about ghosts and witches and beasts and other creepy creatures can make me afraid to go to bed hahahaha. Okay, let's make it short, these are my two favorite movies, i watch both over and over again, let's begin:

1. Nanny mcPhee and the Big Bang

I watched the first sequel last year on  TV, it was a hilarious movie anyway, it tells about a single-father who has to raise his seven mischievous children single-handedly, and before things get more ruined and messed up, u know, Nanny McPhee, mysteriously appears to help the man for handling his children, it's funny when the children try hard to avoid their father from marrying a lousy and talkative woman hahahaha and in the end of the movie, their father gets married to their former young and beautiful house-maid. So, last month i bought the second sequel, it's still hilarious movie and worth watching for the entire family, but....this time the center of the story isn't a single father anymore, the movie is about a mom, who has to raise her 3 children while her husband is away for war, and then their 2 snotty city cousins come to their house and make a hullabaloo eversince they arrive. in the middle of noisy disturbance, Nanny mcphee comes up to "educate" those 5 mischievous monkey pups. well, when they all hit it off, together they stop their greedy uncle from selling their precious farm, and they did it anyway, in the end of the movie, their father savely returns from the war with minor wound on his hand, after that they live happily.my favorite line on this movie is what they always say in the beginning and the end of  the movie "when u need me but u don't want me so i have to stay, but if u want me but no longer need me then i have to go" :)))

2. Ramona and Beezus

this movie is starred by Selena Gomez as Beatrice Quimby (nicknamed beezus) and Joey Lynn King as her cute sister Ramona, i love Ramona character so so so much, Joey can play her role as Ramona perfectly, Ramona herself  is a nine year old grade school girl with lots of extraordinary imagination, she has a bestfriend named Howie (starred by Jason Spevack---don't you think he looks alike with Billy Gilman when he was a child???). Ramona faces difficult situations on her daily basis cos, at school she's not that bright student and at home her parents always compare her to her beautiful and smart sister, beezus. so and so, they all think that Ramona is a rowdy trouble maker, no it's wrong, she's not, she's just always  been misunderstood, actually she's a smart and exceptional little girl. she wants to help her parents to overcome their financial crisis after her dad got fired by his company, it's funny when she sells a lemonade on Beezus' desk and offers it to Beezus' crush, Henry or when she auditions for Royal peanut butter's ads, she even makes her own tiara made out of burrs hahahaha. in the mean time her aunt, Bea, tries not to get reeled back in by her ex, Hobart, but she can't refuse his propose to marry. Ramona at first gets angry on this, but then, she finally accepts such condition.
okay, i think that's all my fave flicks review, hope u like it _Restina_

I NEED A MAN WHO CAN TREAT ME LIKE A LADY...

Trying my good luck by applying for ministry of foreign affairs (MOFA) in Jakarta, couple of days ago, i joined the test with other competitors at Pekan Raya Jakarta, never knows, i could be a diplomat sumday hahaha *fancying*.

 besides, mr. natalegawa (our current minister of foreign affairs) is my favorite minister of all time, he's gorgeous, super-smart, calm and charismatic....i wish i had a husband like him sumday hahaha *still fancying*, duh.. he's a married man with 3 children. but owh...look at his super duper charming smile.... it's so.... i dunno....he's just too *thumb up* to describe.

Aduh, sedih banget kalo nonton berita akhir-akhir ini, banyak anak-anak yang ga bisa meneruskan sekolah karena tersandung masalah biaya, lagi-lagi karena BIAYA SEKOLAH!!!

Ada apa sih di Indonesia ini??? apa pendidikan cuma buat anak-anak orang kaya?? kasihan tau liat anak-anak itu yang cuma bisa melihat dari luar pagar sekolah... aduh...seandainya aku bisa menolong, tapi aku ga bisa berbuat apa-apa selain berdoa agar pendidikan di negeri ini menjadi lebih diperhatikan lagi... padahal pendidikan yang baik adalah kunci kehidupan yang lebih baik...dengan pendidikan INDONESIA INI BISA JAUH LEBIH MAJU LAGI dan ga dipandang sebelah mata oleh negara-negara lain.

Tapi kenyataannya, pendidikan cuma untuk golongan ekonomi menengah ke atas, sementara mereka yang miskin, apalagi yang berada di bawah garis kemiskinan, ga bisa mencicipi manisnya bangku sekolah...

HOLY CRAP!!! WHEREVER I GO, I ALWAYS MEET THE JERK PEOPLE, JUST...LEAVE ME ALONE!!!

guys, this is one of my favorite songs, how's he doin???
