Divergent
SO. I'm on my mood for reading something. And after I finished The Fault In Our Stars, I decided to read Divergent. I love it. I really love the book. One of my favorites. Actually I want to read Paper Towns but then I was thinking about getting disappoint for the story or whatever is it because Augustus and Hazel 's story already made me fall in love with them. So yeah I chose Divergent because it is a different genre and everyone said that it is a good book, really good book. In my opinion, if I ever get to choose between The Hunger Games Trilogy or Divergent Trilogy, I'll choose Divergent. Sorry, but Divergent is more like 'a world to me' haha, but I still love Hunger Games, because Hunger Games was the first book about dystopian I have read.
Anyway, in Divergent, it has 5 Factions. Amity, Abnegation, Erudite, Dauntless and Candor. The choosing for factions is more like to choose what might fit into your personality. I'll give you the meaning for each faction and divergent + faction meaning, it's from the book btw and it is from dictionary also.
DAUNTLESS: fearless, undaunted.Undaunted: courageously resolute, especially in the face of danger or difficulty; not discouraged.
ABNEGATION: 1. to refuse or deny oneself (some rights, conveniences, etc.); reject; renounce.2. to relinquish; give up
ERUDITE: characterized by great knowledge; learned or scholarly
CANDOR: 1. the state or quality of being frank, open, and sincere in speech or expression; candidness.2. freedom from bias; fairness; impartiality.That definition definitely helped me flesh out Candor more, particularly in the second book. The faction is not just trying to develop honesty– they’re also trying to develop impartiality.
AMITY: 1. friendship; peaceful harmony.2. mutual understanding and a peaceful relationship, especially between nations; peace; accord.3. cordiality
In the book, when you are 16 you can choose the faction according to your aptitude test, and after that you'll need to choose what faction you think you can fit in or you feel that it is 'more like you'. The stories is interesting, Veronica Roth can keep me to turn the next page and so on. I read Divergent for 2 days but then I read Insurgent was more one and half days because it is soooooo amazing, and interesting too. Anyway, the movie will come out in March 2014. I know it's a long waiting but, I'll give you the teaser trailer and soon I'll give you the full trailer. The full trailer will coming out first on VMA this sunday 25/8 so let's just wait. But this teaser trailer already give me a happiness like seriously, that 12 seconds was the best 12 seconds in my life or that 12 seconds means everything to me. I am a Divergent fan. So here is it I'll give you the teaser trailer...... (BUT! Don't forget to read the book first okay? You will like it, I swear!)

Ansel Elgort - Augustus Waters
Okay so "What You Wanted" song from OneRepublic recently playing on my mind everyday but I'm not going to talk about that song. Two days ago, Tuesday, August 20th 2013, Ansel Elgort who will play Augustus Waters on TFIOS movie or who played Caleb on Divergent movie was having a live stream! Yippie! I was on my way to school, and it was around 5.30am!Ahaha, so he said that any followers can ask him everything, and I tried, I asked him a lot of questions and one of them is "How is your music project?" and then, after a few minutes I sent that tweet to Ansel. HE READ MY TWEET. Okay, I was like "OMG" "I'm shaking" and I was shouting too. That was crazy! By the way, he answer my questions, yeah he said that his music project is doing well and so on. I have the footage. I mean I get it from a fan too, she recorded it btw. And I am so happy. I thought I was hallucinating that Ansel answered my questions and he mentioned my username and my name (I used a combine name for this special twitter account because this twitter is used for spamming and something, yeah whatever) but I'm still happy. I'm going mad and even until now I still not believe that he really answered my questions and mentioned my name and my username on his live stream, I'm so lucky, don't I?
So here is, the footage of the Ansel Elgort's live stream on Tuesday. (Just press the play button and skip to 2:20 and that he answered my question!)

The Fault In Our Stars
For Gus, I know you are now in heaven, you can see all people that you loved from above there. I know that Hazel will always love you. She do love you, Gus. And so am I. I fell in love with you ever since I met you on the book. I think it's weird to fall in love with some fictional characters but I don't know. I cried when I know that you died 8 days after your pre-funeral. It was so sad. I can't even comment about this book anymore. Amazing. Sad, very sad. Funny. I bet you all girls if you read "The Fault In Our Stars" will definitely fall in love with Augustus Waters. He had his beautiful blue eyes and when you look at his eyes, in a second you are blushing, melting into his eyes and also he has a charming smile also, whenever you see him smile widely, you will also smiling him back. Oh, God. Augustus is definitely a guy that all girls want to be her boyfriend. He is romantic and funny. Can I have him?
The Fault in Our Stars tells a story about a girl, 16 suffering from cancer and her lungs suck being lungs and then she met a guy named Augustus Waters, in which he is so hot. Damn hot. And story goes on about their relationship. It will make you laugh and then cry, and laugh and cry over and over again. I heard that TFIOS will turn into a movie, and the cast who will play as Hazel is Shailene Woodley, I love her and Ansel Elgort will play as Augustus Waters! He is handsome, and cute and I think he has Gus' smile, I saw his smile in some interview on youtube so whatever. John Green did an amazing work and successful to make me cry. I cried after I read Looking For Alaska, and this time I cried more and more after I read TFIOS. I hope the movie will be as spectacular and awesome and sad and funny as the book. I hope so. I hope the movie will make me more cry than after I read the book. Hopefully. These are some visualization about the book and I think it contains some spoiler anyway, yeah I get it from Tumblr
So here it is the cover of the book, paperback or hardcover, well I you see this cover, I bet you already judge the book by its cover, but it's okay! It's good for this book. Because the book is really awesome. I also put a video in which the writer of this book read to you chapter 1 from this book. You should follow him on youtube! Vlogbrothers ; And i put the 2 pics below the video, the illustration one and the real pic with real people and.... it's Hazel Graze and Augustus Waters! The one pic is the illustration and the real pic is the cast for Hazel and Gus! Yippie! It's Ansel and Shai btw :)
.jpg)
(Pic above) It's Gus and Hazel. The real visualization. Thank God, at least I can see Augustus (again, bcs he will die in the book, ops spoiler sorry) Yeah, I can't wait for the movie. I heard that they will start filming on this month! 23rd of August exactly. Yeah I just can't wait.
UPDATE: So all the casts of tfios will begin shooting the movie on Tuesday 26th August, I'm so freaking excited and yeah, I will give you some update for the movie.
IT'S GUS AND HAZEL. YEAY! FINALLY. THEY MET UP AGAIN. And oh look at Shai's hair, she chopped her hair for charity and both for tfios movie. This is getting more interesting.
UPDATE: So all the casts of tfios will begin shooting the movie on Tuesday 26th August, I'm so freaking excited and yeah, I will give you some update for the movie.
/ANYWAY. Can you give some advice? I am now feeling guilty again because I'm not studying and you know this feeling just sucks. I hate this. I just keep thinking the future which means it's good but I don't want this guilty feeling. So will somebody help me get through with this? Any advice please? /

(I'm) Looking For Alaska
Gaaaaaah! You guys must read "Looking For Alaska" by John Green it is awesome, it's funny and your emotion will run out as you read that book. I cried after I read the book, I don't know if I am the only person in here who feel really emotional about this book. Still in shock (SPOILER ALERT!) about Alaska's death, and I feel like I was there, I can see how Pudge and Colonel were so fall apart because of her death. I can't say anything because this book was brilliant. I love it so much. One of my favorite books. I love another John Green's books also. He is great writer! Here I put some words or quotes picture that I get from Tumblr about this book. Hope you will be interested to read this book.
(btw, the 'labyrinth' quotes is so freaking true to me)

Enterprise, Beam Me Up!
I love this movie so much! I watched Star Trek for the first time is when I watched Star Trek: Into Darkness (2013). It was a remake of the original movies with the original cast. Mr. Shatner, Mr. Nimoy, Mr. Kelley (RIP) are the best trio I've ever known. I loved them, Spock have his logic and Bones hates Spock but in a good way. I remember this quotes from Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (I hoped I wasn't wrong, but I think it is, the scene was when they were having a camp together) and Bones said something that insult Spock but Spock said thank you. So Bones said, "I insult him, but he take that as a compliment." and another quote I liked from Bones is when he talked to Spock (again, haha) and being annoyed by Spock so he said, "God, I liked him better before he died." Anyway, my last but not least is Captain Kirk. I believe everybody do love Captain Kirk. William Shatner is Kirk, he has the charisma which I can't tell you why, I just loved him. I love Star Trek!
I fell in love with Star Trek first, which made me a fan of Star Trek. I have already watched the movies from I-VI (it's the original motion picture) and for VII-X I am still on my way! I have already decided too to watch The Original Series and still downloading a lot of episodes. This movie is my favorite sci-fi ever. I've made that decision. So I want to review Star Trek (2009) first and then Star Trek: Into Darkness (2013).
Star Trek (2009)
So, the photo above is the comparison or differences between the old Star Trek and the new one. Everybody loves the original as always but my mom said that it was aired in our country in 60s so I guess it was pretty old. Very old. The reason Star Trek was getting a remake is maybe because of the fans that missed Star Trek so they can recall their memories of their Star Trek.
As a newbie of Star Trek's fan, I just want to express my opinion about this first remake movie of Star Trek. This movie is good, very good, I love the visual, the plot was interesting, time-travel. The Prime Spock meets the Young Spock, it was pretty interesting. For the characters and casts in here,
Karl Urban as Dr. Leonard McCoy (Bones). Give Karl Urban an applause as he plays the role of Dr. Leonard McCoy aka Bones! He is really good for being Bones and his acting was very natural and similar just like the original Bones. He was hot too (but that was just a plus plus for him). I thought DeForrest was mind melting him before he died, because there is no difference between them. Oh and also Urban was a fan of Star Trek when he was a child so, no doubt why he can act so natural... Bones is still my favorite character in Star Trek!
Chris Pine as Kirk, yup he was good. He was a good actor and in fact he is very handsome and hot. God help me. He has a deep unique voice and blue eyes that can melt you down in a second! But yep he was good for plays the role of Captain Kirk, but in this first remake of movie is just showing the story from Kirk and Spock when they were a child until Kirk join the Starfleet, making up a mess, getting a fight with Spock and have a responsibility for being a first officer with Spock being an acting captain which in the end he manipulate spock for signing out of being acting captain because Spock was emotionally screwed because he just lost his mother and his planet. So Kirk take the command and he became the acting captain of Enterprise!
Zach Quinto as Spock. He is hot too. When the first I watched Star Trek, I fell in love first with Spock. Maybe it's weird and maybe it's not because after that I browsed on the internet, and boom, Zach is sooooo hooooot. I can't say anthing, he is very good for plays the role of Spock. He's too cute.
Anton Yelchin as Pavel Chekov, he was good, I mean he is a Russian but I thought he really have those accents as Chekov but the fact is nope. He hasn't that accent yet he has fluent English. God. But he is a good actor.
Simon Pegg as Scotty, well I only can say, "Can I get a towel please?"
John Cho and Zoe Saldana is a good actor too in here, I mean they are all a great actor in here. My favorite scene in this movie is when Kirk meets Bones for the first time. I can remember some words, Bones said to Kirk, "Don't pander to me kid,........one tiny crack in the hull, and blahblah and see when your eyeballs are bleeding!" You may guessed how many times I watched this movies by this review. Actually I think I've watched it for more than 20 times. Alright, I will give you the clips and trailer, just for you.
So that was my chit-chat or my obsession as a newbie of Star Trek's fan. I'll update this post for Star Trek: Into Darkness review! Ciao!

Guilty Pleasuuuuuuure.
Okay, after I watched Glee's Guilty Pleasure episode, I feel that's my exactly feeling right now.. I'm not feeling guilty because I have a problem with my friends or my family, it's not. Let me remind you that 2 weeks ahead are my bloody exam called AS-Level and held by the Cambridge Uni. And it made me feel guilty because I dont have much time to make revision, although there's a plenty time. I feel guilty when I don't studying and when I see some people who studying too, my guilty pleasure get bigger. And is it weird? or is normal? Yeah it's more like my problem with my brain and my heart maybe.
Let me countdown to summer holiday, it's about 2 months away and I can't wait, it's like my letting go of this guilty of not studying even though when I'm studying, I still feel guilty! Hah! It's weird, like creepy.
By the way, this kinda a different stories from before, I love LBD! a.k.a little black dress? The power of wearing lbd was like a huge impact for you? Like you feel different. I think I've always loved dark colour for clothes or dresses, something classy. And also, I've been trying to learn and yes I can do it now of course, smokey eyes. Um actually I'm trying to make my eyes become a dramatic smokey eyes and I'm on way for it, still learning! It's fun for eyeshadow-ing your eye, like you were painting on a canvas haha! (When I was a child I love painting, and even my teacher said I have a nice hand when I paint something.) So whatever, my conclusion is this month is my peak of stress.

Happy 17th!
Wow, I still can't believe that I'm 17 years old. Is that really old? I'm getting old, and next year I'll go to the college/universities. Is time really that fast? Because the last time I remembered is that I was in my junior high graduation. And now here I am sitting in front of my laptop, and thinking about my future.
Nothing is special on my very sweet seventeen so I just called it as my very normally seventeenth birthday. Because it was just like the normal day, the difference is just that people wishing me a birthday, and I celebrating my birthday on my class and with my classmates. My dad, my grandma and my brother and with my maid surprised me at midnight which I was sleeping and very tired, they came to my bedroom and I woke up and I blew the candles and I got back to sleep again. And on morning as I try to remembered what happen on midnight, I thought it was a dream! Hahaha, I was half asleep so I still remember but I just feel that it was a dream though it wasn't because it has a proof such as the cake.
My exam weeks are coming and I'm not ready yet, even though I tried to be ready it is just hard! There is so many chapters for every subjects and I don't know where I need to begin. So, lately I've been watching a romantic, comedies and some drama movies, and my favorite is Something Borrowed and He Is Not Just Into You. My way for think of something is different than before. I do think as simple as I can, I don't want it to be more complicated so I choose to think simple. Well then that's my story for this weeks, for this march actually. Nothing's attractive, nothing's fun, just an ordinary story.
So, I need to go, I need to do a lot of revision, I mean, A LOT. Good night!
XOXO

perks
On this post I just want to talk about The Perks of Being A Wallflower book and movie, played by Logan Lerman as Charlie, Emma Watson as Sam and Ezra Miller as Patrick. I love the movie as much as I love the book. Somehow the book gave me some strength when I was literally a little bit depressed and so I listened to Asleep song by The Smiths. Such a beautiful song and I repeated it all the time. If you have listened the song before well maybe you know what is the song meaning of all lyrics. The other song that came from the book and movie is called 'Landslide' by Stevie Nicks and I loved it so much. The Perks novel was really amazing and if you haven't read it before, i think you should read it now! I was searching on a web before about people opinions about 'Asleep' song and the perks novel and the movie, and there's someone said that 'The Perks saved my life, you know, I was pretty fu*ked up and this book stopped me from hurting myself" and after I read his/her comment and I was like 'Wow' because I can feel like I was Charlie in the book so I can feel it too. There's another one from youtube top-comment on asleep-the smiths he/she said
"Dear friend,
The Wallflower"
Thanks whoever are you for being the top comment because I can read it lol, but it was all true. I can feel Charlie eventho I'm not exactly have been in a such situation but I love reading books, novels, biography or anything random, I loved it but only in one condition: if my reading mood was good, i would love read many books, if my reading mood was not good, i 'd collect them into my bookshelf.... hahaha.
What I could feel from Charlie is, he is alone and he's need a friend, when he was child he only has Aunt Helen as his friend so after he lost her, he might be feeling very depressed because it said that sometimes his blur memory about his aunt before his aunt that can come back anytime, with a blur memory. Oh no. I love you Charlie. But then he met Sam and Patrick, they became friends. Stephen Chbosky made an amazing book and the movie too. This is one of my best movie after Easy A. So my best movies are Easy A and The Perks. (Hey, I don't know why I loved Easy A so much, but I really like the movie and I can't tell you why I love it so much? Hahaha sometimes I got very confused too why I loved Easy A so much.) So it's already late and I don't know why I kept talking about this ha, so I need to get back to my bed and sleep. Goodnight.
Love,
Sugar Spring.
(Hey!! It's Charlie's style of writing his story! Ha!)

Last few days of holiday..
I spent my new year eve's with my whole family in Bogor and I was so happy because I went to another place rather than stay in here, in Jakarta. I stayed at my family's villa and it's in Bogor Raya and the view was really really amazing! I'm really that close to Salak Mountain and Gede Pangrango Mountain, I can see rice field in front of our house and that's remind me of 5cm movie so much! Before I went to Bogor, I spent with my friends at Blackhouse that is located on Tirtayasa Street, South Jakarta. It was my friend's private birthday dinner and when I was entered Blackhouse, I thought it's big because the cafe contains with 6 different themes such as coffee area, books area, boutique area (you can see the picture below this).
My mum recently has been cleaning up her vintage clothes which is her clothes when she was in Japan and it was on 90s, so I am so lucky because I've got a bunch of vintage clothes from my mum! It is definitely from 90s and mum, I loved it so much! Thanks to my mum that I have found her old bag but it is really rare so I took it. I'm goint to spent my last few days of holiday maybe just by reading a book or maybe reading 'Fashion Book' that has been recently arrived by mail, it has been a month since I ordered the book.. well, it took sooo long for arrived but it is really worth it to wait! and also I'm still waiting for my last order which is Teen Vogue Handbook that I've been dying to see. Come on....
See you!

That's the only things why I'm very concerned about dae-han-min-guk on a few past months. This is my truly deeply confessions. (For you information daehanminguk is mean South Korea!

So let me introduce to you to Running Man, it is a very-very funny reality variety show that can make you will not stop to laughing. You need to watch it from the very first episode because it's the basic and you will enjoy it! (Believe meee!) So, what I want to say is CONGRATULATION for Running Man as the best shows of SBS Ent.
