Moving Day! + Self-campus tour

Dear friend,
So it's officially I'm a college a girl (although I haven't start my orientation yet) but I already moved to my flat yippiekeyayay!

Self-campus tour 29th August 2014 )
Visiting my (very very) new campus at Putrajaya. Well let me tell you one thing, that my uni is a perfect place to study because it is placed in government area and yet, there's only a few people in it. But it's okay though. Okay before I give you all photos, let me introduce you my university (yeay).
Okay so right now I’m going to talk about my future university, the place where I will be studying for the next three years for bachelor. I’m taking Petroleum Engineering at Heriot-Watt University Malaysia Campus. My university is actually based on UK.
(Edinburgh Campus, UK – The main campus)
(Dubai Campus)
“Heriot-Watt University’s name commemorates two men ahead of their time. George Heriot, the 16th century educational philanthropist and financier to King James and James Watt the great 18th century engineer and inventor of the steam engine. There were two successful, leading edge professionals of their time, whose skills and attitudes are embedded in the ethos of the University today. Heriot-Watt University Malaysia will provide a modern dynamic learning environment as a branch campus of Heriot-Watt University. Headquartered in the city of Edinburgh in the UK, Heriot-Watt is an institution with a very strong heritage established in 1821, Heriot-Watt is rooted in the UK.
Heriot-Watt is divided into seven schools and one institute that coordinate its teaching and research:
  • The School of the Built Environment, incorporating architectural engineering, civil engineering, structural engineering, construction management, surveying and urban studies;[29]
  • The School of Engineering and Physical Sciences, incorporating chemical engineering, chemistry, electrical, electronic and computing engineering, mechanical engineering and physics;[30]
  • The School of Management and Languages, incorporating accountancy and finance, business management, economics and languages;[32]
  • The School of Textiles and Design;[34]
Heriot-Watt is known for the strong prospects of its students, with 80% in graduate-level jobs six months after leaving the institution.[41] . It came 1st in Scotland and 4th in the UK in the 2012 National Student Survey,[41] and saw the largest increase in UK applicants of any UK university for the 2013 academic session.[42]  . In 2011, Heriot-Watt was named as the Sunday Times Scottish University of the Year 2011-2012, with the paper emphasising the employability of the institution's graduates.[41] In 2012, it was again Scottish University of the Year 2012-2013 for the second year running, and also became UK University of the Year for student experience.[43] . In 2014, it was ranked 13th in the UK and 2nd in Scotland by the Guardian University League Table,[44] and 4th in Scotland by the Complete University Guide.[45] 
(SOURCE: WIKIPEDIA)

And here I give you my journey (short self-campus tour well actually I was with my family so I didn't actually come alone lol) from Kuala Lumpur I took KL Transit and it cost RM 9.50 from KL Sentral to Putrajaya Sentral. And actually it is the fastest way to go to the Putrajaya. After that we took L04 bus to the university. Fyi, the street is so quiet I mean there's not a lot of people in there so yeah you rarely find people too. 


Will post more about my orientation day and my college flat tour! See ya xoxo

(My) highly anticipated romance movie in (late) 2014

Yup guys I'm back. You know it's 5 days to go until I move in yuhuu can't wait I'm so excited for a new life, my phase 2 of life! Yeay. Anyway, if there my english were wrong just correct me okay? I'm still learning until now, that's the thing about learning isnt it? Doing wrong is still okay? Actually I don't what I want to tell you on this post but I'm just gonna show you about my highly anticipated romance movie in 2014 (well maybe in late 2014)

The Best Of Me
It's another Nicholas Spark's novel turn into a movie guys! Well actually it's my first Spark's book I've (almost finished) read it lol. So yeah I'm waiting for this and I will finish the book before the movie comes out, it's about first love story, separated after 20 years. And here the description from wikipedia:
Based on the bestselling novel by acclaimed author Nicholas Sparks, The Best of Me tells the story of Dawson and Amanda, two former high school sweethearts who find themselves reunited after 20 years apart, when they return to their small town for the funeral of a beloved friend. Their bittersweet reunion reignites the love they've never forgotten, but soon they discover the forces that drove them apart twenty years ago live on, posing even more serious threats today. Spanning decades, this epic love story captures the enduring power of our first true love, and the wrenching choices we face when confronted with elusive second chances.


Love, Rosie.
OH YEAH!! I'M FREAKING OUT! NO, REALLY. I'm waiting for this movie to come out like hell yeah can october be sooner or whatevs but i can't wait to see Alex and Rosie (Lily and Sam yeay!) Well it's actually based on novel too from Cecilia Ahern "Where Rainbows End" so many ups and downs, and her writing style on that book is so unique (I recommend that you should try to read it guys).
Where Rainbows End is a story told through letters, emails and instant messaging about the ever changing relationship between the two main characters Rosie Dunne and Alex Stewart. Rosie and Alex are close friends from childhood but one day they are suddenly separated when Alex and his family move from Dublin to Boston. The book guides us through their relationship as it continues to change due to distance, new relationships and circumstances which seem determined to keep them apart. One question remains throughout the book, were they always meant to be more than friends and will they risk everything including their friendship on love? (source)

I guess I will update you soon if there is another romance movie I'm waiting for. I know both of them are based on the books and sometimes when book turn into a movie, the movie will be so much different but still I'm excited for the movie yeay! Goodnight all.

Body Combat and Preparing for College

Hey guys yes it's me. Again. Happy August! Actually I want to tell you my stories why I hate working out (I even hate pe class at school, especially: running, gym ugh i hate it so much) I hate it because it's so tiring and i thought it was okay for not working out so when I was at year ten, I almost skipped class when it's time for pe class lol, i'm not lying, it's true and shockingly it's not affecting my grades. But then on my second year of high school I was so ambitious for getting good grades so I made a promise to myself that I won't skip any class, and I did. I didn't skip pe class although I REALLY want it. I realized then that I have to work out even if it's just running so I asked my mum if I could join fitness club, and after I joined celfit, they give us for beginners free three session with personal train and I felt like my muscles want to burst out, it hurts so bad lol that was because i hate work out. Even until now I'm still a member and yet I still hate running and i don't know why. So I choose to take class in the gym and my favorite and the only class i have joined is BODY COMBAT! Yup, my personal trainer told me about all classes, and he said  body combat is like boxing but mixed with martial arts so I'm really interested to take that class because when I see people boxing or doing martial arts it's kinda cool tbh so I'm curious, is it really fun or not fun at all? My firs body combat class was so tiring, freaking tiring and so thirsty in the end lol BUT IT WAS SO FUN (and until now it's the only class i've ever take and my favorite). Here I give you description and video just a basic information about body combat:

BODYCOMBAT is a high-energy martial arts-inspired workout that is totally non-contact. Punch and kick your way to fitness and burn up to 740 calories* in a class. No experience needed. Learn moves from Karate, Taekwondo, Boxing, Muay Thai, Capoeira and Kung Fu. Release stress, have a blast and feel like a champ. Bring your best fighter attitude and leave inhibitions at the door
It's fun right? Just to see it on video, it looks fun and yet it is really fun. I recommend that for you if you like some fast and fun work out.  ANYWAYS, I've been searching for some good sport shoes I mean running shoes and  actually I've been looking on Rebook shoes collection on Zalora (for you who don't know what Zalora is, it's one of the biggest online fashion stores in Indonesia, they offer us many good stuffs for fashion from various brands! Go check their websites: Zalora ) Should I buy new shoes(?) although I have to save a lot of money but some of the colors are so cute like they ask me to buy them haha. 
-----
Finally, college is coming. I'm happy, sad , and excited. Because I will studying abroad and i don't have any idea, i must survive and i will. It's one of my dream though, to studying abroad and I even take my desired major: petroleum engineering. Errr guys, maybe it's the common thing for freshmen or idk lol. My friends already moved to their housing near their uni so we won't be able to meet maybe for a couple months. AND YEAH I HAVE A LOT OF PACKINGS TO DO.

july: legend series, love rosie!

Hello so it's me, again. Actually I'm waiting for world cup semi-final, it's German vs Brazil (I support these two countries but how can I choose between these two? Unbelievable). This month until august I will probably just reading reading and reading because that's what I do for a while now and I have finished Legend series by Marie Lu. At first, I thought this book will have similar stories like hunger games or divergent because it's a dystopian book but then I found something different from this book. Action. Details of the action. It's so awesome how the writer told us the action and by now I just want to be June Iparis. She's like black widow in marvel because she has an amazing skills for fighting and she is trained for being an agent. So here I give you Legend's synopsis:
"What was once the western United States is now home to the Republic, a nation perpetually at war with its neighbors. Born into an elite family in one of the Republic's wealthiest districts, fifteen-year-old June is a prodigy being groomed for success in the Republic's highest military circles. Born into the slums, fifteen-year-old Day is the country's most wanted criminal. But his motives may not be as malicious as they seem. 

From very different worlds, June and Day have no reason to cross paths - until the day June's brother, Metias, is murdered and Day becomes the prime suspect. Caught in the ultimate game of cat and mouse, Day is in a race for his family's survival, while June seeks to avenge Metias's death. But in a shocking turn of events, the two uncover the truth of what has really brought them together, and the sinister lengths their country will go to keep its secrets. 

Full of nonstop action, suspense, and romance, this novel is sure to move readers as much as it thrills. "
I won't tell you any spoiler I promised. What I want to say is that the ending, the stories I will keep forever in my head. I love this series so much. I think this is the best series ever? Along with Divergent series too. God I was crying so hard when I read almost the last page of  Champion (book three of Legend series) and it was 2am, and I was crying so hard. So many feelings but sad too because there are no more stories about them anymore, no more legend books huhu. There is one thing that really got me after I read this, I want to be like June Iparis and Tris Prior. I want to be like them, oh God they're such a strong woman!!!! Well maybe I wish Legend movie soon maybe? Actually a production already bought the movie rights but up until now i think they're still searching for director so yeah i'll update if there is another info about that. 

ANYWAY! I can't wait for Love, Rosie movie. Lily Collins and Sam Claflin play in there and they are my fav aaaah i've read the book too and I hope the movie will be as good as the book, eventhough there might be a little bit difference but it's okay, i'm so excited! Coming soon on october 2014 guys! I'll give you the trailers.. I'll get 2 trailers because you just can't get enough :p

post-the fault in our stars

So yeah, I just watched the fault in our stars, I'm so freaking lucky because i get to see it like I watched it 6 days earlier than everyone in my country. The movie that I have been waiting since last year, the movie that I've been dying to see. Actually I want to see gus. Even though you just can see gus in 2 hours long but that's my reason. So how is it after you watch? What do you feel? 
What do i feel? I feel numb. I can not feel anything. I feel like I already lost my soul and I'm not exaggerating it, i'm more than serious. I LOVE GUS. BUT I AM NOT PREPARED TO LOSE GUS EVEN THOUGH I ALREADY KNEW IT. Every time I read the book I always cry in the end and said "why gus? Why gus have to go? Why? It's not fair." And i know Gus is just a fictional character but THANKS TO ANSEL ELGORT WHO HAVE DONE AMAZINGLY ACTING AND BE GUS I JUST CANT SAY HOW GOOD HE WAS. I could feel gus alive in the movie. So yeah the movie goes just like the book, how Hazel met Gus and their stories. 

Let me just tell you when my heart got broken okay? So it's begin when the scene is in Amsterdam. When Gus finally tell Hazel that he was going to die. i almost crying so hard that time but it stopped until Gus' pre-funeral. When Isaac tell "I DISLIKE LIVIN IN A WORLD WITHOUT AUGUSTUS WATERS." And I cried so hard when it comes to Hazel's turn to speech. This quote is one of my favorite quotes from tfios, "Gus, I cant say how thankful I am for our little infinity, you give me forever... Within the numbered days.." And i cried, i cried so hard that I could feel the pressure in my chest. AND THE FINAL: when Hazel got the call, when Hazel found out that Gus is dead. she cried so hard and me too, and my friend too. Even while I wrote this I still can not forget the scene, the picture of hazel who crying so hard when she found out that Gus is not here anymore...

For me, as a reader and as an audience I love it so much. I love the fault in our stars more than anything, the cast, shai, ansel, nat they really did a good acting. All the characters feels so alive in the movie, the music, josh boone as director and of course lovely John Green who writes this amazingly beautiful book, thank you for making a perfect fictional character who has an amazing smile that slayed a thousands heart hahaha. I can't wait to watch it again! 6 days to go!

(p.s. : i wear black dress so it's like i attended gus's funeral... Haha:) love you gus)





Let me give a quote from TFIOS book, Augustus's letter:
"What else? She is so beautiful. You don’t get tired of looking at her. You never worry if she is smarter than you: You know she is. She is funny without ever being mean. I love her. I am so lucky to love her, Van Houten. You don’t get to choose if you get hurt in this world, old man, but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices. I hope she likes hers."
Love always, 
Ret

Fangirling over Fangirl. (+ If I Stay)

Hello hello helloooooooooooooo! Wassup guys? No seriously how are you? I really miss writing something in here you know but I actually I still have something important to do, I'm still busy preparing myself to get into my desired university and it's really freaking hard but let me take a rest for a while and I'm gonna tell you some fangirling things on this post because I've just finished Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell. I decided to buy the book because I thought this book will tell me the story about a girl who has a fandom and blabla which it reflects my real life. I'm a fangirl. I have joined some fandoms such as Divergent (it's my fav one) and I'm a nerdfighters and also the first time I joined a fandom is because one direction. Call me crazy but this is me. I'm still living in these things.
Anyways, about Fangirl, I fell in love with Levi, he has this smile, when you look at him and he would smiling at you, big smile and his smile makes you melt, makes your heartbeat faster or even makes your body stiff. Seriously, he has that smile and he liked to smile to everyone he met. Levi is my second favorite fictional character as Gus and Four in the first one (because I can't decide between Gus and Four). And the story is actually about Cath who is the biggest fan of Simon Snow (Simon Snow is actually a fictional character too) so I am fangirl who loves fictional character and was reading a Fangirl which the story involves about a fangirl who loves her fictional character very much and then I fell in love with a fictional character in that book and his name is Levi. Cath kinda reflects my life actually, like how she doesn't want everybody or like she just want her life to be in the world of Simon and Baz and also how she doesn't want to involved in social things like parties and etc haha, except for her love life. Gah, Cath and Levi are such a cute couple. I really want a real life version of Levi, reading out loud to him and just leaned to him. Omg. Levi is just cute. So here I'll give you some visual, it's from tumblr.
(From left to right: Reagen (Cath's roommate and also Levi's ex-gf), Wren (Cath's twin sister), Cath, and Levi
And also I will give you an adaption, just one scene from the book but it's amazing thank you to Yulin Kuang for making this gaah

Actually I also have finished If I Stay and it will be on theater on August this year so I'll just give you the trailer okay? You'll cry, I can't wait for this summer, tfios, if i stay, and then maze runner gah! I love 2014!
Mia Hall and Adam on Halloween!! 
Goodbye guys, see you later next time. Wish me a goodluck! I have to go back to my real life now lol, no i have to study hard.  Love always.

THE FAULT IN OUR STARS TRAILER!

OMG! Have you see tfios trailer? It's on EVERYWHERE! I mean especially in youtube. Well I saw it first with a very low quality (the leaked one) but two days after that the HD version came out and DAMN SHIT HAS GOT REAL. I'm crying of course. Replaying EVERY TIME, I want to see every details on the trailer. What I most remember is when Gus' speak in the background, and I know it's from his letter (which makes me even more crying).
"You can't get to choose if you hurt in this world, but you do have a say in who hurts you." 
(it's from Gus's letter)  and when in a swing,
"I hope you realize you keep your distance from me in no way lessens my affection for you." "'Gus, I'm grenade."
Okay wait, I just realized  that the last time I posted about ansel-gus related, I was mentioning "What You Wanted" from OneRepublic. AND YET IT WAS ONE OF THE SONG ON TFIOS TRAILER! Wohoo, i knew it that song would be amazing if it puts on some movie trailer and yeah finally! And I do realize now that I am so damn lucky. Because I get noticed by Ansel Elgort on his livestream TWICE in a row! Although it's been a long time, but I am so thankful. He even favorited my tweet too. Be jealous bitjes. But now i think it is so hard to get noticed by him as many followers he has and everyone dying about him, dying to get his attention haha. But still, "I can't tell you how thankful I am for our little infinity."  and here is it, The Fault In Our Stars Trailer:
