9 Summers 10 Autumns

Okay. Here I am, at 11.30 pm, still awake while everyone at my house is sleeping. I just finished reading a novel by Iwan Setyawan, titled 9 Summers 10 Autumns. And here it goes, a little review from myself.

This is an honest review from me. Okay, at first I bought this book because I watched Mr. Iwan at Kick Andy, I watched that show accidentally, because actually I don't really like watching talk show. Then I saw this guy and he shared his story at that show, and also promoted his book. I'm interested in his book and when I'm going to a bookstore I just bought it without thinking twice.

Apparently reading this book really open my eyes. I've always wanted to go to new york city, see the people there, how the move and walk very fast, see the street, the lights, the fashion, the skyscrapers, anything about new york. I like watching hollywood movies and tv series which most of the shooting are taken in nyc. So it makes me really want to go and feel the nyc so bad. I don't care if people say living in nyc is hard, this is a city that never sleeps, all I know is I just want to go there. From this novel, I learned nyc, and I found from this novel that nyc must be more interesting than what I've been watching on movies.

But, not only about that. This novel isn't about new york city. What I like the most is this is a great journey from a small guy from Batu to New York City, how an education can change his life. This is about a life changing, family, education, facing the fear, making dreams come true, or maybe more than his dreams even. However, his experience is very inspiring, and I'm so grateful that he shares his journey to people. I'm sure it will inspire everyone who read it.

However, I hope by reading this novel will give me more courage to chase my own dreams, and maybe Someday I will get my own nyc experience. Thank you Mr Iwan.

90210

I'm in a long holiday right now and since my store isn't doing so well lately, I guess people really don't buy new clothes in new year so it's just maybe not the season. But I don't want to write about it.

Lately I'm watching 90210, a tv series about LA teens in Beverly Hills. So, if gossip girl is about upper east side, 90210 is about upper west side. I think this series is pretty good. I'm addicted to it in fact. But it's so hard not to compare it with gossip girl. But it's really different from gossip girl. 90210 is more dramatic than gossip girl. The story is more intense I think. If I have to choose, I think I like gossip girl more. I think the gossip girl cast is better. And the gossip girl plot is so fast which I like, but 90210 is more drama, the plot sometimes a little bit slow. Because I don't like too much drama, so I'd rather watching gossip girl if I have to choose. But this show is really enjoyable to spend time. Also there's a interesting guy in this series. He is matt lanter. You might be know him from vampires suck. Yes he's the one who plays edward cullen but trust me, in this series he's totally different.

Anyway, although I love gossip girl more, it doesn't mean I don't like this series. I like it. I mean, I can see the life in Beverly hills although it's not like the reality but it seems like sometimes I want to experience a life like that. Living in a luxurious place, parties, beach, and having bunch of bestfriends, and the best part is they're never busy with their school work.

Why we should invest from now

Investment. Usually when we hear about it, we always think of money. It's called investing money. But actually there are still a lot of things that we can use it as investment. In fact, these are more important than investing your money.

Then what's that? It can be a lot of things, such health, knowledge, and attitude. Investing your health is important. Every people should have a healthy lifestyle. Don't work too much, but don't take rest too much too, eat healthy food, and do some sports. Remember that health is the most important thing in life, if you're sick, you can't do anything . It's so not good because when you're sick, you need other people to take care of you. It's okay sometimes but if it's too much you will disturb them.

The other investment is knowledge. It's not about what grade you have gotten, or what's your degree, but it's more about what you have learned so far. We don't learn only from books or literatures, we can learn from experience, other people, or even movies. Knowledge isn't all abot academic and achievement, it's about what you have gotten that can be useful for your life.

Attitude, by having a good attitude it will help us a lot. This one is the most difficult I think because no matter how hard we try, sometimes we make mistakes. We're human and that's what we do in life. Making mistakes. But I have a good quote from Miley cyrus, "a mistake is a mistake if we don't learn from it." This is so true, we may make mistakes, but we shouldn't do the same mistakes twice.

By writing these I don't mean that money isn't a good investment too. I know it's a good investment. And I want to share a little knowledge that I have learned about momey investment.

I think we all should make an investment from now, no matter what age we are. (I assumed people who's reading this is at age 14 or more). If you have some money, don't always try to spend it all, just try to save some to your bank account. It's the easiest step to make an investment. Buying things such gadget, shoes, clothes isn't investment. It's okay to buy it sometimes but don't drop your bank account into zero nominal.

The other thing I learned about investment is don't think that depositing money to a bank is a good investment because every year there's always inflation that makes all the prices go up. And by depositing your money, you let inflation eats your money. I think I can't explain it clearly but if you want to know more about it you can google why depositing money isn't always good. But I'm not saying that don't do depositing, it's okay if you want to deposit your money, because with another consideration, sometimes depositing money is a good way.

Invest your money to property or gold. This one is still a new thing for me. In fact I still need to learn a lot about this. Even if you have 4 houses that doesn't mean you make a good investment. And about investing in gold, You can also learn about it. I can't say anything about these because I don't want to make a wrong advice because I'm not an expert. There are a lot of books about investment in property or gold you can look for it at the bookstores. But if you want to know more about investment I recommend Robert Kiyosaki book. He's a good teacher and writer I think.

Ps by writing this doesn't mean I'm good enough to do what I've written. It's just a little knowledge that I want to share. There are a lot of smarter people and smarter books better than my posts.

Review : Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure

Who miss High School Musical series? I do of course. I'm a fan of High School Musical series, and I was super excited when I heard Disney will create this movie. Actually, it's not really about High School Musical because High School Musical was over. It's about the most memorable character in High School Musical, Sharpay Evans. Everyone who watched High School Musical must understand why I call her "memorable". She's like the mean girl, just like Blair Waldorf in Gossip Girl, but only in Disney version. And now, Disney gave you an adventure with Sharpay in New York City, so for all High School Musical fans, you must watch this movie although you hate Sharpay. Okay???

The story is about Sharpay who wanted to reach her dream by going to New York City. She hoped she could be an amazing actress in Broadway. But actually it wasn't as easy as the way it sounded. Cheesy story of course, but I still love it. I don't want to tell all the stories because it will make you bored when you watch the movie, I just wanted to say I enjoyed this movie. If in High School Musical Series it was all about Troy and Gabriella, now it's time for Sharpay to shine. She had her dream and she was on her way to reach it. Of course, Sharpay is Sharpay. She couldn't leave the "fabulous" word and pink stuff. So, there would be a lot of pink when you watch this movie.

I actually hope there will be all High School Musical cast becoming cameo, but actuallly it's only Ryan Evans. I reallly want to see the cast get reunited but I think it's so hard to reunite them now, because everyone is busy doing their own movie, promoting stuff, and something. I think it's okay because everyone has their own way, so if they can't be together again I totally understand. However, because this movie is the end of High School Musical series, you should watch it. It's fun, fabulous, and it's New York baby!!!!!!!!!
