Love this!!!!

This song is featured in the movie that makes me fall for the hero, Alex Pettyfer (for more detail, click on his name) in I AM NUMBER FOUR- u can click this link to watch the trailer for this movie. Very classical in a way...slow...romantic too. It really fits the movie. I love the movie too. This is The XX(about this band, click this link) and one of their killer songs, Shelter.
By the way, The xx are an English indie pop band, formed in London in 2005. Try to listen to this song. I like the words.

Alex Pettyfer

SHELTER

I find shelter, in this way
Under cover, hide away
Can you hear, when I say?
I have never felt this way

Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on

Could I be, was I there?
It felt so crystal in the air
I still want to drown, whenever you leave
Please teach me gently, how to breathe

And I'll cross oceans, like never before
So you can feel the way I feel it too
And I'll mirror images back at you
So you can see the way I feel it too

Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on


Meaningful rite? I wud like to dedicate this song to him...Love the melody, the music...slow...calming...soothing...

THOR -Review

Official trailer of Thor

This is another comic based movie by Marvel(Stan lee's masterpiece). If u like fantasy, fiction, imagination, cgi effects, u must have liked this one too. I watched it last Thursday with my heartthrob. Well, i like it! I like the whole movie, the actors-Anthony Hopkins is the father, Chris Hemsworth(Thor), the actress(Natalie Portman), the plot, the colours, the cgi effects etc. Not a disappointment at all if u wanna watch it. Too good to be true, yes, it is indeed. But, why not u let ur imagination runs wild sometimes? Plus, there's no inappropriate scenes..so i guess kids can watch it too. It is rated as PG13. So if u have kids who are 13 n above, they can watch it, with u of course.

This epic adventure "Thor" spans the Marvel Universe from present day Earth to the mystical realm of Asgard. At the center of the story is The Mighty Thor-The God of Thunder(his hammer is his power), a powerful but arrogant warrior whose reckless actions start or provoke an ancient war. As a result, Thor is banished to Earth, where he is forced to live among humans, without his power n hammer.

He has to live as a mortal(not easy for him), and that's when he meet with Natalie Portman, a very enthusiastic journalist to be, who is doing her report on galaxy etc. When the most dangerous villain of his world(none other than his own brother) sends its darkest forces to invade Earth, Thor learns what it takes to be a true hero. Betrayed by his own brother, Loki, he learns more than he knows about life. I love the effects, Asgard looks so awesome, and their costumes too.

The ending will make u feel soooo cant wait n curious too...The Avengers will come- Ull get to see Loki again.

I think this is worth watching..and it's not neccessary for u to watch this in 3D version, the normal one wud be juz fine. But, dont criticize too much. This is a fiction n comic based by the way...so juz take it easy n relax....Enjoy the movie till the end...

My favourite song...

Foo Fighters - Everlong (Live on Letterman)

My favourite old time band and song. This song always sends a shiver down my spine. I love Dave Grohl's voice(bear in mind he's 42 years old now-ex-Nirvana)...U rock Grohl!!! By the way, im waiting for his latest song....hmmm...

A short getaway: Medan (PART 3)

Sambung.....

I juz cant recall all, but all i remember was, after we had our lunch at the restaurant, we made our move to Brastagi. 2 hours journey actually was a tiring one, seriously...with the "worst" road condition ever....plus it was too narrow(juz nice, tak lebih tak kurang), so it seemed too long, as if it was a neverending journey.

We went thru the hill, the forest....bolehla jugak nmpak Lake toba sesekali...Sampaila to this one place, a must stop destination, kat Simarjarunjung, a place where people can try ginger tea(if u like something spicy, u can try this), at ur own money.

A short getaway:MEDAN (PART 2)

Ok..kita sambung balik dari part lepas kami mkn di Permatang Siantar tu.

Kami teruskan perjalanan ke Parapat, dalam 2 jam lagi baru sampai...Bila perut dah kenyang, apa lagi, mata pun mulala kuyu..ngantuk la.Sementara nak tidoq tu, danla aku usyar-usyar luar jalan.

Ni ok lagi nie...ada yg teruk benor jlnnya...

Hmm...macam-macam yang aku nampak. Mostly, depa mcm kekampungan sikit. Kalo bawak keta, keja nak potong ja...pastu hon sana sini.ish..ish..Kalo kat Malaysia, mau kena maki dah depa nie. Main-main dgn hon. ^&&%$%^$%#*&#@@#!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahaha...

A short getaway: MEDAN (PART 1)

A WALK TO MEDAN, INDONESIA

ON 31/3/2011-2/4/2011

Salam everybody.

Baru dapat peluang untuk duduk, tenang-tenang dan update my blog nie. Sekali menulis, dah takleh nak stop. Tengah mai mood rajin, apa lagi...nak flashback kenangan pi Medan,Lake Toba dan Brastagi, di Indonesia sepanjang 3 hari 2 malam di sana.

Tiket memang awal-awal lagi aku dah book, Firefly ja sebab murah(pi dan balik dalam rm100 +tax 22.00=RM 122 ja), dan naik di airport Penang. Sangat dekat dgn umah aku (Sg Petani dan Penang dalam 40 minutes gitu ja). Actually, i never plan nak pi mana-mana tempat di Indonesia. Macam tak minat ja. Tapi lagu depa aku suka jugak, Peterpan la...huhu. Opss..berbalik pada topik utama, kawan akulah ni si Ana tu, dok ajak dan promote kat aku, join dia dan kwn2 ofis dia nak pi sana pada tarikh yg aku tulis tu. Aku pun check ticket, hah..rezeki aku, ada lagi promotion firefly. Terus ja aku book, tak kira apa dah. Kalo pi sendiri, jgn harapla..Tapi pi ramai2 aku ok ja.Sebab ni Indonesia, bukan nak pi western country.huhu..

Geng ke Medan

Aku bukan amik port sangat pun tempat2 yg ada di sana...apa special places nya...Maklumla,aku just join kwn aku tu ja.heheheh..So, Ana lah yg uruskan semua.Aku juz said, yes.Ok...hahahaha. Hari yg di nanti pun tiba.Aku bwk satu beg ja, ringan, senang, tak berat sgt. Duit pun dah ditukar, rm500 dapatla juta rupiah. Ish..sekali aku tgk duit tu, mcm dh jadi millionaire sekejap..hahahahah.

Duit diaorg, 1000 ribu rupiah bersamaan 0.30 sen duit kita.Kalau 30 ribu tu bersamaan rm 10. Kalau Satu juta rupiah tu bersamaan rm400 ja.huhu....Jangan terkejut.

Ana deal dengan satu travel agency kat A.setar, so ada tourist guide yg akan bwk kami jln2 nnti. Takutla nak main redah ja...Pagi sabtu(31/3/2011), sepatutnya flight kami kul 10.15pagi but ditukar ke jam 7.15pg, so awal gila gerak dari rumah..Kul 5 pg aku dah gerak ke airport, abah yg hantarkan. Sejuk...jalan pun clear...Ana dah 2-3 call,risau kami (me dan kak ina-kwn ana yg tumpang naik my car kat tol tmn sejati) tak sampai2 lagi coz kami nak check in sesama.

Ana and I

Aku sampai kt airport, terus nak check in. Ok, no problem. Danla breakfast(mkn cream cheese bagel n hot tea kat coffee bean-aku ja), sbyg subuh siap2..

Makan bagel dulu

Kul 7.15 masuk Departure Hall. Firefly ni kecik ja...comel ja,juz like me.

Dalam firefly

Masa nak naik tu, mmg terasa gak..berombak...huh..pastu ok. Aku selalu naik MAS ja dulu-dah government amik dgn MAS dulu,time economy tgh ok. Dalam sejam ja, dah sampai Airport Polonia Medan. Waktu kita 8.15 pagi, depa kul 7.15pagi baru. Awal banget!!

Polonia

Airport Polonia Medan

Sampai2, Pak Mat(dari travel agency Lovely Holidays dah tunggu dgn signboard, SHUHANA AHMAD-nama my friend tu). Lega....kami naik KIA PREGIO-leh tahan gak transport depa nie. Medan seawal pagi dah nak mula jam. Sesak. Bnyk kereta2, kereta angkut, angkut kota dan mcm2 lagi. Aku ternmpak satu sign board kat jln depa tu, lawak lak rasa...ni lah signboardnya.

Bus sekolah

Patuhilah rambu-rambu lalu-lintas

Pak Polisinya mana?

Kami dibawa ke Istana Maimoon dulu. Tapi tak bukak lagi, awal sgt kan. Sultan pun rasanya tak bangun tidoq lagi time ni...Sultan tu ada kt dlm istana, tp sultan kat sini dah tak berdaulat. Yalah, Indonesia kan republik, ada presiden. So sultan, nama ja sultan...tapi tak kaya pun. Bergambar kat sekitar Istana Maimoon ni dulu la. Hah, dtgla org juai souvenirs...Buk,beli buk...keychain dan segala mak nenek ada dlm beg plastic dia. Jgn terus beli ok. Bnyk lgi tmpt nk p. So, keep ur money first.

Istana Maimoon

Dalam van

Tepi van

Pastu, gerak ronda2 Medan. Mak aih...jgn terkejut dgn keadaan lalulintas di sini. Semua nak cepat. Macam F1 drivers ja depa nie. Potong sana, masuk sini, takut ooo tengok...Kusss semangat jadinya. Tapi yg aku heran, depa takdak la pulak accident mcm kt negara kita. Rata2 yg aku nmpk depa bnyk guna public transport...depa tak banyak bus, tapi guna van ganti bus. Van tu, takde pintu belakang tau. Angin dptla masuk plus kita dpt tgk org kt dlm tu..hahaha..kelakar..

Innova merata2...maklumla murah ja kt sna-tax depa rendah...RM70K ja tau. Huh...sana sini Innova, vios. Ish...aku ni bila nk merasa pakai Innova entahla...

Welcome to Medan

Ok. Masing2 dok merungut lapaq kat Pak Mat. Kami mintk Pak Mat bwk p breakfast kat mana2 yg ada jual soto ka. Sekali dia bwk p satu kedai ni, Kedai Nasi Soto H. Anwar Sulaiman. Lay out mcm biasa ja.Simple. Kami pun order la, naso soto ayam dan daging. Satu set bersamaan 15 ribu rupiah bersamaan RM5 duit kita..Mahal jugak, tapi sedap banget soto dia. Pure dan asli ja rasa. Tol2 rasa soto..bukan kuah sup. Kwn aku,Ana mkn sampai licin....huhu..Tu tanda sedap soto dia.heheheeh

Ni rupa nasi soto

Makan time

Bil-tgk tu,ribu ribu rupiah tau

Pas makan, gerak la..aku dok kat belakang Ana,dia dok depan, sebelah Pak Mat. Diala tukang bertanya itu ini(dah nama pun ketua rombongan cik kiah kan), aku dok tengok sekeliling ja...tengok kereta..orang2..Tapi,sesa k jugak Medan ni. Kalau tak pandai drive,jgnla mai sini. Di sini, hon digunakan semaksimum yang boleh. Juz imagine, sebaik lampu hijau ja, depa dh pakat dok hon org depan, menandakan suruh gerak cepat. Gila apa..Kalo kat Malaysia,mau kena maki ja buta2 kalo hon tak tentu pasai ni. hehehe..Tol tak? Potong pun depa akan hon, jgnkn kata keta, motor pun hebat hon. Pon!Pon!Pon! Pening kepala aku....bising banget pulak.

The traffic here

Ok, on the way nak ke Parapat(tempat Lake Toba tue), kami melalui highway. Aku actually miss part lalu kat hiway coz tertidor...ngantuk kekenyangan...Buka2 mata, dah masuk jln kampung balik. Aku terkejut tgk ada org mintak derma utk baiki jln tgh2 jln yg bz tu. Ada tong2 drum tgh2 jalan jugak. Gila seh...Kelakar pun ada...mcm2 la benda pelik yg aku nampak, yg takdak kt sini. Gelak ja kami tengok. Hahahahahahaha....

Highway entrance

Perjalanan nak ke Parapat ambil masa 4 jam. So, kami akan bnyk henti la, utk lunch, beli buah tgn dan sebagainya on the way tu. Jalan dia sesak dan sempit, plus condition dia tak berapa elok sgt. Tapi, satu kelainan la dpt tgk tempat org. Jln2 luaskan pandangan. Kami melalui plantation Sumatera Utara, rubber,palm oil dan cocoa.

Singgah kat satu kedai ni, Paten. Jual segala snacks yg famous di sana. Aku beli 8 kotak ting ting, tung tung, tong tong, teng teng, ping ping etc. Hahahaha..mmg tu namanya. Sebenarnya tu emping beras yg dicampur kekacang, keju, bijan hitam etc. Rangup..sesuai wat snack minum petang atau mkn ja saja2.Aku beli semua dlm rm48 duit kita...pastu jln balik nkp lunch di Permatang Siantar.

Kedai PATEN

Beli ting ting, teng teng, tung tung, tong tong, ping ping, pong pong etc.

Restoran Garuda, Permatang Siantar

Nilah kedai makan di Permatang Siantar tu. Paling sedap dlm bnyk2 kedai mkn yg kami singgah lepas tu.

Posing depan kedai

Hah..masing2 lapar, mkn smpai licin. Nasi padang ni bnyk lauk pauk nya. Aku takdak problem bab2 mkn ni, jnji HALAL...belasah ja. Ok jugak lauk2 dia...kenala dgn my taste.

Nasi padang, Ana and I.
