Fifi's February Favorites (Music, Movies, Dramas)
Februari 18, 2018Hi!
I finally decided to write about my monthly favorites in this blog. The idea came up as I want to share things that I enjoy in a month either it is beauty product, movies, music, dramas, etc. I write this most in English but I include a bit of Bahasa too as I consider this as a casual post, so please bear with me.
Music
Just for a brief introduction about my music taste, I would like to tell you that I am a big fan of Kpop and it has been 8 years since the first time I started indulging myself to it. Kpop is just like my main music supplement aside from Indie pop, Jazz, and Hip hop. I am not a typical Billboard listener kind of person, but I do listen to some. My ultimate groups are SJ and Bigbang whilst nowadays I am more to Winner... and Ikon and Blackpink. Well I don't really follow them as I did to SJ and BB back then tho. Other than Korean music, Of course I also listen to Western and Indonesian music. I like Coldplay, The Beatles, Hivi, RAN, Maliq, well mostly more to jazz and old songs. Enough with the intro so here are my favorite music jam for this month!
1. Ikon - Love Scenario
I looooooveee this song I've been repeating it from its first release until now. I can say that this is really my kind of go to music. Unlike their previous hits such as Rhytm-Ta and Bling-Bling, which are more to swag hiphop style, this song is really catchy, fun and more to easy-listening. This song can lift up your mood eventually whenever you listen to it and certainly the one that keeps repeating inside your head. I like B.I but guys, Junhee looks so attractive in the MV and I have to admit his part is definitely my favorite.
2. Zico - I am You, You are Me
I know this is an old song but I have been listening to it again this month, especially when I drive my car whenever it is raining. Perfect song to boost a chill mood during gloomy days.
3. Melly Goeslaw - Gantung
(cr: google)
This is one of my old gem! I remember I listened to it 10 years ago nonstop. The song doesn't describe my situation but I just love how deep the lyric is and the clip video which featured Darius Sinathrya and Christion Sugiono, Just BAM.
4. Børns - Sweet Dreams
Another my go to chill song. I always love listening to this song whenever I am lazying around during those rainy days and do nothing.
Movies
1. Dilan 1990
(cr: google)
Can I emphasize once again that this is the most baper movie I've ever seen again on my 20s? Iqbal definitely nailed it. I am shook by gombalannya, tatapannya, everything. It definitely brings me back to the beautiful old times when we first experience our first love during school. My favorite scene (or quote) is none other than:
"Besok aja ya Milea, aku lagi ada urusan dulu" spoken in a very soft voice while looking at Milea dearly.
I DIE. *kipas-kipas*
and when Dilan nembak Milea terus bikin perjanjian pake materai. Berdua doang, the real 'dunia milik berdua'. Meleleh. *besok-besok siapin materai siapa tahu ada yang nembak*
To be honest, during the movie I could not stop blushing whenever Dilan ngegombalin Milea. Maap mbak, ini yang digombalin siapa yang malu-malu mau siapa dah?.
I have never attracted or even interested to brondong until Dilan tbh. Iqbal, you are the real MVP!
Overall this movie is 10/10 if you like a cheesy school romance kind of story yang bikin kamu tiba-tiba jadi senyum-senyum ga jelas kalo nginget si Dilan. Anyway here is my favorite review of this movie written by mba Teppy.
2. Eiffel I am in Love 2.
(cr: google)
This is the sequel of the Eiffel I am in Love which released 12 years ago and one of the most hit Indonesian Romantic Comedy movies after AADC. I remember that I was still in the elementary school at that time! If you already familiar with the first movie, well you may enjoy this movie as well. The casts are still exactly the same, the plot, and the cringe!!!! OMG HAHAHAH.
Adit character is again well-delivered by Samuel Rizal, the character is him and cannot be replaced by anyone. Same goes to Tita by Shandy Aulia. Karakter Adit tuh ngeselin banget gimana gitu terus tiba-tiba habis itu jadi sweet banget walaupun tadinya kayak udah pengen gua makan ni orang. Adit is definitely a kind of men yang sangat worth it buat ditunggu sih (dua belas tahun cuy!). The story is funny but sweet, typical rom-com deh pokoknya. Tapi masih lebih baperan Dilan sih #Tetep.
3. Darkest Hour
(cr: google)
I am a fan of war theme movies and this is also an epic one! If you have watched 'Dunkirk' this is basically a prequel of it or behind the scene of the evacuation to be exact. You can see how intense the negotiation to make any decision when you are in very precarious situation, while all the pressure is on you and you have to decide in a very limited time. I really love how they describe Churchill in this very tense period of the UK. And not to mention Gary Oldman... He perfectly executed his role as Mr. Churchill, deffo worth an Oscar!
K-Dramas
1. Laughter in Waikiki
(cr: google)
If you need something to laugh at, this can be your choice. The drama is full of funny scenes that can make you ROTFL. The reason why I want to watch this is because of Son Seung Won. I have a crush on him since Age of Youth 2 and I love him and I need him more on scenes. The Plot at first is kinda weird but after it goes this is just like light k-drama telling about daily life of three young men who struggling to achieve their dreams. But again, it is so funny and you will be on stress-free mode after watching it.
Thanks for reading, xoxo
