It's A Boy Girl Thing

 After three days of tiring house chores, I finally got the time to watch a chick flick movie. The movie for tonight would be It's a Boy Girl Thing. I was actually trying to do my English homework. But every time I opened wikipedia for some background, my computer shut down by itself. It happened twice in a row. So I went browsing for movies in IMDb instead. 

A romantic comedy involving two nemesis Nell Bedworth (Samaire Armstrong) and Woody Deane (Kevin Zegers) having their bodies swapped. At first, they hated their situation and were actually trying to wreck each other's life. But along the way, they found the meaning of true friendship and true love. 

This movie got an easy-like from me! The trailer itself was really appealing that I was eager to watch this. My instinct was absolutely right about this movie turning out great. Because it actually is! The movie has a lot of humor, romance and some Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet storyline attached to this movie. You've got to see it for yourself. Try watching the trailer below: 


I used to see this poster in a DVD shop but never attempted to purchase it. I should have watched this years ago. This movie was released in 2006! 

btw.. Notice that I keep on watching 2006 movies; coincidence much?

Coriolanus

After the lab, we went to Plaza Indonesia to watch The Premiere . I was really hoping that The Bourne Legacy will show up in the studio but unfortunately it wasn't. There was Coriolanus instead. I'm going to talk about this movie later on. 


The girls (the total girls in my class S1 are only 3 including me, pretty lonesome..nah, just kidding. HAHA) went to PI with me using my dad's driver from the factory. We talked a lot! Gossiping. HAHA. The long journey which is usually tiring turned out to be very fun due to us chitter-chattering. The other guys went to grab a pizza first after physics lab. 

As soon as we have arrived to PI, we directly headed to EX to purchase the tickets. LOL. After that we went to eat at Maru-tama Ramen which is just across XXI. 


Citra and Sharon


marutama Ramen. Tasted really good.

we ordered the same menu

Citra's and my karage. oily but it was okay, I guess. Still prefer the ramen though.  
not to mention there were only 2 slices of PORK! So stingy!
 Apparently, the guys haven't arrived to PI. But then out of nowhere, they came. Took a photo. Nicholas is missing as he is still on vacation to America! How awesome is that.

 From that restaurant, we went shopping for Citra's friend's gift. We were finding, wait, only Citra was searching for Marc Jacobs, I was just tagging along. I don't usually shop at clothes in the mall. Really expensive. Let me tell you that all the clothes available inside the stores we passed by range from Rp. 1M and above. I was utterly shocked man.

at the premiere. 
Now we have come to the part of which I'm going to tell the plot of Coriolanus. So, this movie was depicted from William Shakespeare's play. However, it was located in 21st Century Rome. In addition to this, what really bugs me most was that all the characters talk in old-fashioned English. It was really hard to understand! Not to mention that I immediately started reminiscing Mrs Esther's lectures on Julius Caesar when I was in the 9th and 10th grade. Seriously! It was actually similar to Julius Caesar. There were angry mobs, senators, Rome (of course), loving wife, betrayal, and most importantly, the main character of the story died; Coriolanus died in the movie. The movie lasted for 2 hours. I was incredibly bored. My friends were bored too. Some of them fell asleep. HAHA. 

Anyway, I really had a fun time today. I had no idea that I would know them a little better after this day out.
