I can't say anything but Transformer Kicks Ass!
Do yourself a favor, buy the tickets and watch the movie. I promise you'll be on the edge of your seat all the way from the beginning to the end of the movie.
Even my a bit geeky girlfriend loves it.

MedaPro
MedaPro, didesign sama Alberto Meda. Salah satu industrial designer terkenal yang mendesign produk2 utk Alias, Alessi, Cinelli, Gaggia, Ideal Standard, Luceplan, Mandarina Duck, Omron Japan, Philips, and Vitra.
Untuk produk MedaPro ini, Vitra yang produksi bekerja sama dengan Alberto Meda. Seperti designnya yang terdahulu, MedaChair, Meda 2 dan Meda XL, MedaPro masih pake netweave utk backrestnya.
Trust me, this is not just a pretty chair, hampir semua fungsi ada disini. 3D armrest, adjustable seat pan, adjustable backrest tension, dll..
Hmm.. gotta get one of those lah pokoknya. Yumm..

Ocean's 13
Hmm.. sepertinya pepatah hanya keledai yang jatuh ke lubang yang sama itu ga bener..
karena producer Ocean's 13 juga ga kapok2nya buat sequel Ocean's sama jeleknya dengan sequel sebelumnya.
Danny Ocean kembali beraksi bersama teman2nya yang kedua kalinya.. sasarannya kali ini Willie Banks (Al Pacino).
Ocean's 13 berubah jadi "Mission Impossible".. dimana semua "akal2an" mereka utk merampok itu diceritain sebelum mereka beraksi. Dari awal film semua udah ketebak kalau mereka bakalan berhasil.. sama seperti film2nya terdahulu.. tapi kok ya ga ada kemajuan sama sekali ya?!
Hampir semua akal2an mereka juga ga masuk akal. apalagi bawa "bor" yang dipake tunnel prancis-inggris ke vegas, c'mon.. you think we're that stupid?
Bedanya dengan Ocean's pertama, film ini sama sekali datar.. semuanya garing.. ketebak.. dan wah ga ada sesuatu yang fresh di film itu.. even jokesnya aja garing.. Gedung hotelnya aja CGI, kayaknya Soderbergh udah kehabisan ide untuk franchise Ocean's ini. Mudah2an dia ga bakal kepikiran untuk bikin yang satu lagi.
Hmm.. ga nonton juga ga papa sih.. ga bakal ketinggalan apa2 juga. What a waste.

Anjrooottt !!!!!!
Gue ga ngerti ya sama yang namanya motor.. beserta pengendaranya..
Kenapa sih mereka punya tendensi besar sekali buat melanggar??! Nyusahin orang pula! Kambing!!
Kejadiannya tuh waktu Sabtu malem.. di jalan Ciputat Raya. Pulang dari cinere, gue lewat pondok indah, untuk menghindari pembangunan underpass, gue belok kiri di perempatan pertama sesudah pondok indah, mau lewat jalan kebayoran lama..
Nah udah sampe ujung jalan.. gue belok kanan dong, pas belok, tiba2 ada motor dari lawan arah! yang mana seharusnya jalannya itu SATU ARAH! trus langsung deh.. Jebret!!! nabrak aja lho dia ke mobil gue.. ANJRRROOOOOTTTT!!!!
Pas gue turun.. orangnya udah jatoh.. pas bangun.. ga pake helm.. jalannya lawan arah di jalanan satu arah..
Dan begitu liat orangnya.. halaaaah mau minta ganti rugi juga udah males geeelaaa
paling gue cuma dapet 50 rebu paling gede.
Ya udah.. gue minta aja kunci motornya.. tadinya dia ga mau.. dia bilang "masa saya pulang jalan kaki mas?" trus gue bilang "ga, gue ga mau motor lo yang jelek, gue minta kuncinya doang!" ya udah pas dikasih.. gue berjalan masuk mobil.. dan gue pulang..
paling ngga gue bisa ngasih pengalaman yang dia bakal inget.. pulang malem2 jalan dorong motor.
Buat pengendara motor yang patuh, Salut! Tolong bantuin dong mas, ajarin orang2 yang ga tau aturan dan membahayakan orang lain itu caranya pake jalan yang bener.

Joe Vitale's Life Missing Instruction Manual.
Hidup emang complicated, dan sayangnya.. kita juga mahluk yang complicated juga.. atau jangan2 karena kita mahluk yang complicated, oleh karena itu hidup kita jadi complicated?!
anyway, Joe Vitale adalah salah satu yang berusaha menyelamatkan kita dari keputus asaan lewat bukunya Life's Missing Instruction Manual.
Buku ini sebelumnya di rekomen sama Kandi, then agak penasaran akhirnya gue beli deh.
Overall isinya berupa roadmap untuk kita melewati pitfalls of life and living. Easy to digest, clear and fun.
No, it won't change your life and who you are. It'll make you feel better.
A Must Have Book. Go and get one.
Ol' Witty Sparrow!
Rated PG -13Action/ Adventure
Akhirnya nonton juga sequel kedua dari seri Pirates of Carribean yang menceritakan the Wittiest Pirates Jack Sparrow. If you love the previous two series, you'll love this sequel for a good reason.
Overall filmnya oke banget A very good mix of comedy, action and drama. Dari durasi 2 jam 48 menit ini, menunjukkan kepiawaian storytelling hollywood walaupun cerita ini fiktif tapi mampu membuat amaze orang2 yang nonton..
What i love the most in this movie adalah betrayal. Dimana semua orang berkhianat demi agendanya masing2. What a cruel world.
Long live ol' witty Sparrow!

Richard Templar's Rules of Work
This book filled with guidelines for reader to "work smart" However, this book might be more suitable for people who are already doing a good job and want to take the next step. This book will tell you what to do, but with no detail on how to do it. A worthwhile read.
I'm moving on to the next Templar's Rules book.
Shower Foam vs Liquid Soap
Waktu mandi tadi pagi.. baru sadar waktu melihat kemasan sabun mandi yang dipake.
tertulis "Shower foam" trus yang ada di kepala adalah.. what the..???
sebetulnya apa sih Shower Foam itu? apa bedanya dengan Liquid Soap?
Apa alesan yang membuat produsen sabun mengganti kata2 "soap"? Atau mungkin Soap mulai terdengar negatif jadi harus diganti dengan "foam"
Menurut wikipedia.org, Soap adalah "Soap is a surfactant used in conjunction with water for washing and cleaning. It usually comes in a solid molded form, termed bars due to its historic and most typical shape. The use of thick liquid soap has also become widespread, especially from soap dispensers in public washrooms. Applied to a soiled surface, soapy water effectively holds particles in suspension so the whole of it can be rinsed off with clean water. In the developed world, synthetic detergents have superseded soap as a laundry aid."
So, kenapa mesti Foam?
