Damansara, Kuantan | 2 Ogos 2018

Assalamualaikum!
Guys!!! Remember Zahi said to update her blog more frequently?? Yes!! That! Didn't!! Happen!!!!!
Let's go through what I've been doing since the end of diploma some other day, hopefully. But for now!!! I ada K-drama nak recommend untuk korang yang ada masa free nak tengok drama and untuk korang yang busy tapi sanggup tangguh kerja untuk tengok drama. Leggo!

This is the official poster for He Is Psychometric

So, what is this "psychometric" term means? Maksud Psychometric ni dari segi istilah dia ialah bila kita sentuh something, kita dapat tahu orang/object tu punya past? Oh my god i'm so bad at this hshshjashajs OKAY CAMNI, bila sentuh kan, kita boleh tengok what happened before tak kiralah kita sentuh orang ke, objek ke haa camtu lah lebih kurang. So the main character, Lee An (played by GOT7's Jinyoung) has that ability. Sounds cool right??? Tapi... Lee An ni macam sengal (bahasa kasar: bodoh) sikit so jangan mudah tertipu dengan lelaki handsome okay guys 😔👌🏻 Ok gurau, since Lee An ni agak sengal (bahasa kasar: bodoh) sikit so it's interesting to see how he make use of this special ability of his. Meanwhile the female lead pulak, Yoon Jaein (played by Shin Yeeun), is a girl with a huge secret. Like, huge HUGE secret. She's trying so hard to live while keeping that huge secret from others, so when one day both Jaein and Lee An cross path, is it a good thing or not? Haaa, jeng jeng jeng. That's where the fun starts!

And turns out, Lee An and Yoon Jaein are actually related in more ways than they could ever expect 👀 *insert dramatic violin music here*

To be honest, the reason I first watched this drama is sebab ada Jinyoung and Yeeun, Jinyoung because he's from my favourite kpop group, GOT7 and Yeeun pulak sebab suka tengok dia berlakon dalam web drama A-Teen (ni pun highly recommended, ada dekat Youtube!) But He is Psychometric, starting from the first episode, already exceed my expectation! My favourite element is how the editors arrange the plot and timeline of the drama. This drama actually involves both past and present timeline, but unlike some other dramas, it is arranged nicely that bila kita tengok, kita tak confuse and kita boleh easily indentify when is when.

Secondly, I looove how tak ada satu moment pun yang I rasa bosan. Even dekat part yang tak serious and intense pun, the drama is filled with light scenes yang kelakar and and you can enjoy, and kind of like a moment to breathe? So you tak always bosan and at the same time you tak always serious je sambil tengok drama. Like, orang tengok drama nak release stress so kalau setiap masa kerja serious nak cari pembunuh je tak ke lagi stress? Kan guys? Please cakap setuju hahaha. The flow is this drama of just nice, not too rushing and not too slow. You won't feel overloaded with banyak sangat fakta and hints in one episode, yet it's not empty too. Just enough to not make your brain explode 👌🏻

Thirdly, I love the characters. The characters really complement each other SO well. Like, SO well. The chemistry is A+ I tell you. The relationship between the characters evolve so naturally, not forced, not overdone, although it's fated for the characters to meet each other, it's not tak logik or cliche kind of fated, if you understand what I mean? They don't just meet after 152726536 years sebab terlanggar dekat jalan, but there's a solid reason and a story line on how they meet. And I love how detailed the production team in finding their actors. Especially in matching the child actors with the actors that will play the adult role. If you guys tengok, you guys can really tell how similar they are. Which is, not something we get in a lot of kdrama. I suka details, so I suka perhatikan benda-benda remeh(but not so remeh) macam ni, so I can say I'm really impressed with this!

Last but not least, or the most important one actually, the story line. Of course lah drama ambik pelakon paling hebat dalam dunia pun tapi kalau story line "meh", I won't stay and watch the drama okay ☕ This is coming from someone yang tengok drama pilih actor, if actor tu yang I tak familiar or I tak minat, there's a high chance I won't watch walaupun it's viral or everyone is talking about it. That's just me btw. So, guys, bila I yang start tengok this drama because of the actors, but I, stayed for the story line, that means the story line gold guys! Look into my eyes and trust me. Join my MLM! Tiber kan hahahah. I tak boleh cerita banyak pasal the story line sebab I takut I will spoil everything but I jamin it has a great story line, so far 8 episode I tengok ni. And, the genre of this drama is Romance Thriller, so korang yang suka tengok drama pasal kes-kes bunuh, but not too deadly serious, ada kelakar and romance secukup rasa, this drama is highly recommended!

So dekat mana korang boleh tengok cerita ni? Firstly, if korang ada Viu, boleh tengok dekat situ. Secondly, boleh tengok jugak dekat 8TV (showtime I tak sure sorryyy) but not really recommended sebab iklan lama + potong-potong (biasalah Malaysia dan iklan lama berpisah tiada), and lastly if nak tengok online, I biasa tengok dekat ondramanice ! Drama ni tayang dekat Korea hari Isnin and Selasa pukul 8.30 malam kalau tak silap, and dekat website ni biasanya dah ada english subtitle in about 12 hours macam tu je so this is the fastest site I know and also website yang tak leceh ada seribu ads sexy dekat tepi-tepi hahaha.

My explanations and review sucks but please PLEASE give this drama a chance. I guarantee korang tak menyesal. If korang menyesal, datang balik dekat blog I and comment dekat post ni and naikkan traffic blog I hahahahahha okk gurau BUT PLEASE. WATCH. THE. DRAMA LIKE PLEASE I TAK PERNAH MERAYU MACAM NI SEUMUR HIDUP I.

Okay tu je, bye.

Assalamualaikum 😊

Assalamualaikum!
So, as the title, in this post I'm going to review a Korean movie entitled A Stray Goat. This movie came out April last year kalau tak silap. The main reason why I am watching is because the main actor is Park Jinyoung from GOT7 hehe. Walaupun dah lebih setahun released, aku baru macam tergerak hati and terasa ada mood nak tengok harini, so here I am. Actually, tak berniat pun nak tulis review, but ada a few messages in this movie yang aku rasa berbaloi kalau share. Before we start, this post contains SPOILER yang kaw piaw punya spoiler. I'll start off with the synopsis first, nanti bila dah masuk tang spoiler, aku letak spoiler alert, okay? This is my first time writing a review for a movie so please bear with my amateur review hahaha. So let's start with the movie poster first:

This is the link to the movie: Nunbal | Movie trigger warning: Bullies, lots of cursing, sexual assault

The movie starts off with the main character, Cho Minsik, a priest's son, moving from Seoul to a rural village because his father is re-opening an abandoned church. There, he started to be friends with a few bad kids, who like to bully a girl named Yang Yejoo, because of her father was accused to kill one of the classmate's sister. Long story short, along the way, Minsik and Yejoo became friends, and even closer when Minsik showed her a stray goat that he found in the mountain.

I don't want to go in detail about what happens in the movie, but what I'm gonna say first is, after watching this movie, the first thing that came in mind is literally "???????????????". Or at least that was how it was for me. Aku tenung skrin lama sikit, fikir-fikir kejap, barulah, "Oh..........." and it left me speechless, honestly.

What I'm about to say after this contains light spoiler, but the message behind the scene was something worth the spoil. Ni, memang pada aku pengajaran paling besar dalam cerita ni.

There's this one scene when Yejoo goes to the church to find Minsik after he was absent at school. Dia datang bawak kambing dia, naik bas, and even though pakcik bas tu marah sebab mana boleh bawak kambenk kan naik bas. Then sampai church tu, dia berhenti dekat satu lopak air ni. Aku legit ingat dia nak tengok reflection dia je, sekali, dia pijak lopak air tu, kaw kaw kotorkan kasut dia, then, she walked in the church. Masa tu orang dalam church tu tengah baca doa lah kan, dia jalan selamba je dengan kambing tu, bawak lumpur masuk church. Sampailah this one pakcik halau dia sebab ye lah, dahlah bawak masuk kambing, kotorkan pulak tu. Then she saw Minsik, hoping that he would say something, but Minsik buat-buat tak kenal je. (fuck u minsik) Dah kena halau, Yejoo pun keluar lah. But then, she saw the same asshole pakcik dalam church, and instead of being embarassed of himself, he looked at Yejoo with the dirtiest look possible. (fuck u also pakcik)

This scene, is actually, very deep. The metaphor is just... mindblowing.

The goat represents as history of what had happened to Yejoo. She lost a very precious thing, but the bad history and memory remains with her everywhere she goes. What's done remained done. Remember the pakcik bas? Pakcik bas represents the public. Public will hate you because of your history, but what can you do? It's stuck with you forever. It's not like you can just leave it anywhere.

The lopak air, represents as human's sins. Before Yejoo pijak lopak air tu, kasut dia bersih. Bila dia dah pijak, kasut dia kotor. Dia bawak dosa-dosa dia ke mana pun dia pergi.

Then she walked in the church, along with her bad history, bad memory, trauma, etc, along with the sins, but what did the people at church, who was supposed to be the "kind one" did? They looked at her with such judging looks, and chase her away from the church.

Is the church, or in our Malay culture lah, the mosque, or any religion place(?), religion house(?), is supposed to be for people who are religious only? Or, religious people kena kawan dengan religious people only? Yang ada dosa? Yang ada mistakes????

Disclaimer: aku tak kata semua orang alim berperangai begitu, tapi, walaupun sikit, ada tau golongan macam ni. Mana tahu terkena pulak dia baca post aku ni hehe. This is a note to myself too.

Ok tu je yang deepnya hehe.

---SPOILER ALERT---

Movie ni, sebenarnya, tergantung. It has no definite ending. Ada ending, nanti aku cerita pasal ending dia, tapi ending tu tak semestinya ending. Faham kan? Ke tak? Seriously kalau korang tengok movie ni korang fahamlah maksud aku tu. After I finished watching the movie, I looked at what Jinyoung(who plays as Minsik) got to say about the movie and his character, and then I understand. I understand what the movie was about.

There's a lot of questions with no answer, honestly. In the earlier part of the movie, it was said that Minsik had to move to Goseong because he caused some trouble back then in Seoul. What he did, remains unknown until the end of the movie. Which I think means that we don't always know what happens in other people's live, what they've been through etc. Yejoo's father was accused as a killer, and there was this one part where he denied it when he was asked, but there was no final result, whether he really killed the victim or not. And also, the ending, which I said isn't definite. Yejoo was absent at school so Minsik was kind-of looking for her, but she was nowhere to be found. While walking, Minsik came across the stray goat that both he and Yejoo cherish a lot, but the goat was alone. Minsik chased for it, but he stumbled and fell down a few times, until the last time he fell, he just gave up and lay down, staring at the cloud, crying, until the snow came down. And that's it. The indefinite ending. We won't know if Minsik ever got up and chase again, if he found Yejoo, if he ever apologize to her, if he ever ended up with any relationship with her, no. We don't know what happens to Yejoo either. The ending is Minsik laying down, crying, what I see as regretting, and that's it.

Now, I'm about to elaborate on the climax of the story. Korang mesti curious kan kenapa Minsik ada rasa menyesal? Why did I mentioned if Minsik ever apologize to Yejoo?

Long story short, adalah sorang pakcik ni dia claim anak kambing yang Minsik dengan Yejoo jumpa tu dia punya kambing. Yejoo didn't want to let the goat go, so Minsik made a promise to the pakcik that he will buy the goat instead. But he got no money lorh this stupid boy 😑 Janji nak bagi duit the next day pulak tu eyyy bodoh ke? Haa marah ni marah. But he got the money. How? You watch sendiri la hahaha. He got the money, then the money got stolen pulak dah satu hal, and while dia pergi lawan-lawan nak ambik duit tu semula, Yejoo go to meet this pakcik alone. Yejoo still refuse to give the goat, so that pakcik mengamuk lah sebab dah lah duit takde, kambing kau nak. Banyak cantik muka kau? So pakcik tu pukul-pukul Yejoo, and then the pakcik being his asshole self, he raped Yejoo. THIS IS WHERE I GOT SO EMO LAH SEBAB MINSIK THEN DATANG LARI-LARI AND MASA TU PAKCIK TU DAH SIAP HIS DIRTY BUSINESS WITH YEJOO(it wasn't showed in detail don't worry) TAPI KIRANYA MINSIK TU TAHULAH KAN YEJOO TU KENA RAPE, PASTU, PASTU, PASTU, DIA BOLEH BLAH??????? WTF???? BRUH?????

This is why I have trust issue with good looking guys. Mesti, adaaaaa je yang tak kena. Aku cuba lah husnudzon ok mungkin dia gi panggil polis ke, orang lain ke nak mintak tolong kan? But no. He didn't come back...

The saddest thing is, Yejoo saw him running away 😭

Yejoo get the goat, but she lost her dignity. She went to school the next day, bringing the goat along. Of course lah she gets bullied and called names for it, but she didn't care enough. Lagi sedih, Minsik was absent that day.

After that, the scene yang Yejoo pergi church tu happened.

Remember how Minsik only saw the goat alone, but without Yejoo? Like I said earlier, the goat symbolizes what happened to Yejoo. Minsik saw the goat because he actually knows. He'll be haunted with the regret, probably forever. Even when Yejoo is not there anymore. Anything could've happened to Yejoo, either she ran away, or no longer alive, but the history, what happened, what Minsik witnessed, happened, and nothing could change that fact.

After I finished watching, of course lah I couldn't help but to wonder why didn't Minsik say anything, do anything when he saw what happened to Yejoo and afterwards. The actor, Jinyoung himself pun kata dia tak puas hati kenapa character dia tak macam hero-hero filem yang lain. The answer, kinda blows my mind. Below is an interview with Jinyoung:

---END OF SPOILER---

There's also other messages in the story, that I'd like you to experience watching it by yourself, experience that "Oh........." moment when you finally understand.

My comment about this movie is, this is a movie with an ordinary story, with ordinary characters, and ordinary ending, but still an amazing movie, nevertheless.

It's realistic. No fairy tale kind of stuffs. Hero or not, in the end of the day, an ordinary human being has both strength and weaknesses.

If you ask me to rate, 7.5/10 for storyline, 100/10 for the messages and uniqueness. Tapi perlu sel-sel otak berhubung lebih sikit lah sebab deep 😂

Okay, that's all kot yang I have to say about this movie. Sorry if my review is bad, berterabur ke apa ke. Sorry for the extreme rojak-ness ahahahaha that's just how I write. Some things are more comfortable written in english, while some in malay. Another review that I suggest you to read is here (but this one really contains lots of spoiler as it elaborate most scene in detail, so don't read if you're planning to watch the movie first!)

Bye, Assalamualaikum 😊

Kolej Kediaman Lestari, UTeM | 26 Februari 2017

Assalamualaikum!

Sekejaaaaap je dah bulan Mac dah. SERIOUSLY? Apa je aku buat sepanjang dah 3 bulan 2017 ni? Rasa macam tak produktif lansung hahahaha.

Okay actually dah berhari dah nak post pasal ni, tapi hehe biasalah bila dah bukak laptop ni banyak melencong ke lain huhuhu. So akhirnya, seminggu kemudian baru nak post. Hari Ahad minggu lepas, aka 26 Februari 2017, aku tinggal berdua je dengan Syaurah (aka Shawty), Ipah keluar dengan kawan dia, Jia dengan Shahadah balik. So kitorang ni yang bangun tidur memang lambat gila, and bangun-bangun je, lapar... Nasib baik Jia tinggal kereta dia sebab dia balik rumah ayah dia yang ambik. So dia benarkan kitorang guna kereta dia untuk terus survive dalam kehidupan (lol).

Macam biasa, isu paling rumit sekali dalam dunia ni ialah "Nak makan mana?" 😂 Sebab bila weekend kedai fav kitorang, Muo Station dengan Ayam Penyet Rasa Jawa tutup. Dah lah kitorang berdua ni bukan orang Melaka. So kitorang jalaaaan je dulu tanpa tahu arah tuju. Call Ipah, dia ajak makan KFC, tapi rasa macam tak puas nak makan KFC untuk lunch. So Shawty jalaaaan lagi, last-last dia kata nak makan nasi ayam. Aku pun google kedai nasi ayam terdekat, so kitorang pergi restoran Nasi Ayam S.P.E.C.I.A.L (dalam google memang camni nama dia hahaha). Tak sempat nak ambik gambar bagai sebab terlampau lapar, tapi kalau siapa nak makan nasi ayam boleh lah google kedai ni okay! Sedap and harga pun berpatutan untuk student yang tengah tunggu PTPTN masuk macam kami haritu huhu.

Lepastu, dah kenyang makan nasi ayam ni, Shawty cadangkan makan dessert pulekk. Dia craving waffle sedap-sedap tu. Aku ikutkan aje sebab dia driver kan, lagipun tak pernah lagi aku pergi food hunting dekat cafe-cafe hipstur dekat Melaka ni. So sekali lagi dengan bantuan google, kitorang decide untuk pergi Brats & Uni Cafe dekat Bukit Beruang, Melaka. (Actually panjang lagi cerita cari and pilih cafe ni tapi takyah la cerita hahahaha)

Brats & Uni cafe ni lokasi dia dekat-dekat dengan MMU. Dekat tepi jalan je, so kalau tak familiar area Bukit Beruang tu kena rajin-rajin lah tengok ke tepi ya. Sebaris dengan banyak lagi cafe, ada Coffeeology, Friends Talk cafe, Tappers, dll. Signboard Brats & Uni ni simple je kalau nak dibandingkan dengan yang lain, tapi.... korang kena masuk dalam dulu baru tahu macam mana.

Interior design Brats & Uni ni honestly sangat!!! menarik, sebab ada variety tempat duduk yang korang boleh pilih ikut suka nak duduk kat mana. Ada yang sofa, ada yang kerusi cam untuk family, ada tempat tinggi, rendah, dekat luar and dekat dalam. Kira kalau pergi banyak kali tu, boleh lah try setiap jenis kerusi and meja tu hahaha. Ni, gambar-gambar yang sempat di-snap macam orang jakun kurkur.

Tengok meja ni jadi homesick pulak sebab teringat meja makan kat rumah lolol

Dekat sini, harga dia nak kata murah, tak jugak, mahal sangat pun, tak jugak. Standard cafe hipster lah. Takdelah harga tak logik ke di luar kotak pemikiran manusia ke, tak adalah sampai macam tu. Aku dengan Shawty order Sinful Choc Nutella Milkshake. Nama pun dah macam berdosa kan? Hahaha. Jap jap nak upload gambar, baru rasa berdosa sebab mampu share gambar je dengan korang 😝

Tadaaaa! Niiii sumpah puas gila kalau korang jenis yang suka benda manis-manis. Dengan cuaca masa tu panas, lepastu dapat pulak Sinful Choc Nutella Milkshake ni. perghhh terliur aku sambil menaip ni 😂 Ada cookie besar, ada rocky ke pocky ntah 4 batang, pastu tengok biskut teddy tu bergayut kat cawan tu awww comel gila. Kitorang order satu je sebab dah kenyang kan, ni pun untuk memuaskan nafsu je hahaha. Walaupun order satu, tapi straw dengan sudu dapat dua hehe mekasih abang cafe sebab memahami lol. Harga dia... satu cawan ni RM 14.90. Ni memang betul-betul rasa berdosa dengan duit PTPTN tak masuk laginya 😂

Milkshake ni memang sangat manis, so jangan gatal order sorang satu kalau rasa tak minat chocolate/benda manis atau dah kenyang, untuk mengelakkan pembaziran. Selain benda manis-manis, ada jugak makanan lain yang korang boleh order so kalau nak breakfast ke lunch ke dinner kat sini pun boleh.

Ni saje nak share, air masak memang dia bagi free, tapi rasa kelakar tengok botol dia macam botol acid dalam makmal kimia dulu 😂 Aku dah try, Alhamdulillah memang air masak, bukan acid okay so korang boleh minum.

Selain interior design dengan dessert & foods dekat sini, the cafe itself memang best. Sebab tenang sangat, kalau nak study ke buat kerja ke memang sesuai sangat lah. Wifi pun ada dekat sini. Satu lagi, kalau nak ambik gambar lawa-lawa fefeeling hispter pun lagilah tersangat okay 👌

Tu je rasanya pasal Brats & Uni cafe. Nanti kalau ada rezeki, bila aku pergi cafe lain, aku story lagi okay. Last but not least...

Haruslahhh belanja muka kami hahaha.

Assalamualaikum 😊
