Instant Family, a film by Paramount Pictures and directed by Sean Anders, is a film that might makes you laugh and also cry at the same time. This film was adopted from the director’s life story who was adopting three children from the foster care system. Sean also add a life story of a teen who being adopted to help him know about adopted teenagers’ perspective and add it to the film. So, basically this movie was based on true story.
Instant Family shows us about the journey of a married couple Pete (Mark Wahlberg) and Ellie Wagner (Rose Byrne) who are start considering the option of adopting a child after being taunted by relatives who think they will never have kids. Pete and Ellie then join a foster parents course to prepare themselves before becoming the adoptive parents. In the beginning, the Wagners wanna adopt maybe a 5-years-old boy/ girl, they hesitance over raising a teen. Until they meet Lizzy (Isabela Moner), a 15-years-old girl, who made Ellie impressed by her behavior.
The Wagners then talk to Karen and Sharon, two social workers, about potentially taking Lizzy in. The social workers tell Pete and Ellie about Lizzy’s background that her mother is a drug addict and currently in jail. Moreover, the Wagners find out that Lizzy also has two siblings, Juan and Lita. Had time to experience doubts, they finally adopt the three children. But, the story do not finish yet.
Pete and Ellie have to a new life with the three children. And it wasn’t easy at all. Many ups and downs come up them. Lita refuses to eat anything but potato chips, Juan reacts sensitively to every instance of troubles, and Lizzy frequently bratty toward the Wagners. Things get hectic, especially when the kids’ mother has been out from the prison and Lizzy remains bratty while her brother brother and sister start to warm up to the Wagners. This part is totally sad. My tears start running out from my eyes :”)
Well, this movie taught us a lot of things. Especially about family stuffs. Family isn’t only about blood. Family can come from everywhere and with everyone who can feeling like home when they’re around you. And home can be built by loving each others :)
Let’s spread positive energies and loves to surround you! :)
Whatever you said to me.
Whatever you did to me.
No matter how much I hate it.
No matter how much it "hurts" me.
I still quiet.
Can't argue even say any words.
Can't resist even make any gestures.
Whatever you said to me.
Whatever you did to me.
No matter how much I hate it.
No matter how much it "hurts" me.
I still quiet.
Trying not to cry.
But in the end my tears falling slowly.
Whatever you said to me.
Whatever you did to me.
No matter how much I hate it.
No matter how much it "hurts" me.
I still quiet.
I surrender.
Cause everything is decided by you.
Everything have to depend on your opinions.
Everything is only about your own interest.
Everything is only about your dreams.
Yours.
Not her.
Not him
Or even mine.
In the end,
I'm lose.
Again.
And again.
Don't know when will it stopped.
Just want everything run perfectly.
#RandomTalk : Individualistic or Independent Person?
Couple weeks ago I've met my friends and had a deep conversation. We had like a simulation of psychology test and found out what things that might actually happen to us or what we actually are.
Disclaimer : we did this kind of psychology test with one of my friends who is a psychology student. So, more or less what's my friend said of me from the test analysis were quite true.
My friend said that I am a person who doesn't like to being helped by others. And sometimes, I'll feel guilty if I take a hand by others. Idk why. But, it seems true for me.
You know what, I always try to finish all of my stuffs by myself. Whatever it is. If I still can do it by myself, I'll do it. No. Not because I don't like being helped. But, I just feel that everything that finished by myself will be something that makes me proud of myself. Sometimes, I just want that what things that I do are perfectly done. Perfect in my perspective. Since I know that everyone has their own standard of perfect. I won't ruin my works that already perfect for me just because I take your hand offer--especially from you guys who are just know me for a short time. So sorry to say, but I prefer to do all of my stuffs a l o n e.
Feeling guilty after asking for help and taking the help is also happen to me. Idk why it could happened. Sometimes I feel so suck of it. geez! Many case of asking or taking help that make me feel guilty. For example, I'm asking for help to finish my assignment to my friend (who have been friend with me for more than 7 years) and he/ she can help me but it means that he/ she has to spend time to things that not belong to them. Then I'll feel so sorry for it. Or in the college life--especially on the group assignment, I asking for help to check the paper or print out the paper for the group assignment since maybe one of them have done nothing for the group. Then, he/ she said "it's already good. Nothing need to be changed" "It's great, but sorry I can't print it out cz I don't know where is my flashdisk" "It's good. Nothing need to be changed or added. I also can't to edit it since my laptop is broken" "Oh, ok. But, who's laptop that I can use to transfer the file before I print it out? My laptop isn't working" etc etc. They make many reasons to refuse it. Although I just asking them for a little help. Yeah, A LITTLE HELP. SO EASY AND SIMPLE THINGS. But it end up with me doing the things that I ask them to do. Again, I also feel guilty for it. Idk why. Oh, shit. I lose from them. And I actually hate it. Seriously.
I'm not a person who doesn't do the group assignment. I like group assignment. I did. I still need help in group assignment. I'm still not that individualistic person. But, I'm not the typical of people who have to gather in a one place to do the group assignment together--unless the assignment is a video project or product making project. I prefer to divide the task to all of the group member and do it by ourselves. After our own jobdesk is done, then we can merge all the task. I think it's more efficient than working together in the same place cz in the reality is we will not do the assignment but we all will just keep talking or browsing or playing our own phone and the assignment will not finished at that time. I'm sure for it. So, please, if you're one of my college friends who maybe in or will in the same group assignment with me, don't ask me to gather somewhere "to do" the assignment together with all the group member, just give me my job and I'll do my best 😌✌
Idk what happen to me can called as individualistic or not. But, if you guys think that I am an individualistic person than I might say “so what? am I ruin your day?” lol No, no. I just try to be an independent girl. I won’t to be a person who always rely on something or someone. Since last time I rely on someone my life became so messy and I felt so damn useless and fucked up. High expectations of something or someone your rely on can makes a heartbreak for you. Be prepare for it. I warned you.
I am not say that you don’t have to take any help and do all of your stuffs by yourself. No. The point is whatever what are you doing now, whatever things that became your task now are your responsibility to do it as best as you can. Both you finished it all by yourself or with a little help from your friends. Because sometimes we still need our friends’ advices in our life.
Green Book a film by Peter Farrelly which is inspired by a true friendship that transcended race, class, and the 1962 Mason-Dixon line was so great to be watched.
The movie tell us about a journey of Tony Lip (Mortensen), a bouncer from an Italian-American neighborhood in the Bronx, who is hired to drive Dr. Don Shirley (Ali), a world-class Black pianist, on a concert tour from Manhattan to the Deep South. They must rely on “The Green Book” to guide them to the few establishments that were then safe for African-Americans. Confronted with racism, danger—as well as unexpected humanity and humor—they are forced to set aside differences to survive and thrive on the journey of a lifetime.
From this movie we can know that racism is still exist in this hella world. But, it all can stop if we can improve our tolerance to each other. We all are same. We all are human. We all are God’s creatures. So, why there is a racism? It’s all just a stereotype that human made to classify people. In front of God, we are all the same. Let’s live peacefully and love each other. then this world will become more beautiful.
Got this crop top sweater from @.therootsyk . This is super luv! The material is so nice, light and soft. Here is an idea how to wear crop top for hijaber. (if you think it’s not “good” for you or you wanna look more syar’i you can wear long skirt or dress instead of legging or you can also add shirt that you tied around your waist)
Wanna have this sweater too? Just go to therootsyk on instagram and get it! Don’t worry! This brand has good quality stuff and trusted! (the owner is my cousin lol) and if you want to order but it’s closed, you can easily contact me and I’ll help you to get your order! :)
Sorry for the late update:( I supposed to upload this post on Friday (as I told ya on the sneak peak post lol) but unfortunately I was so hectic on that day pfft buuuut, here is another #OOTDInspirations from me for the rainy season:)
Again and again I wear sweater from the one and only The Steddy! This one named Valerie. It’s thicker than Boxy Sweater on my previous post, so, it’s perfectly good to wear it on the rainy season. It can makes you warm and stylish at the same time! Valerie sweater is a crop top style, therefore, it’s better for you to match it with high waist pants or dress just like what I did:)
For those who want to have the same sweater like mine just buy it by going to their website on thesteddy.co or instagram on steddystore . If you don’t like pink, don’t worry cz they have another colors and model too! Psstt ... they will launch a new model too tomorrow!!! So, what are you waiting for?!?! Let’s get your sweater to accompany you on this sweater weather! :)
Ceileeh alim :)) wkwk mon maap jangan diheranin apalagi ditumbenin yak hehe gausah heran apalagi bingung kenapa gitu post nya pake bahasa Indonesia.. soalnya teh mau buat konten referensi/ opini gini agak susah kalo in English dan butuh waktu lama juga ntar kalo kebanyakan mikir bahasa Inggrisnya apaan lol so, I prefer to post this kind of reference or opinion contents in Bahasa (but tetep I’ll using both English and Bahasa hehe)
Well, starting this year niatnya emang mau mulai aktif blogging lagi kan, that’s why I try to write something new on my blog. Salah satunya konten tentang referensi tontonan yang menurut aku bagus buat ditonton beserta alasannya kenapa aku rekomendasiin tontonan itu ke kalian. Sebenernya dulu udah pernah ada satu konten yang mirip-mirip gini, cuma isinya sebatas pendapat singkat dari aku dan plot filmnya aja. (Yang belum baca bisa scroll down ke postingan “movie reference” atau klik link ini aja http://salsabilaspr.tumblr.com/post/113250185423/movie-references-today-i-watched-this-movie ). Nah, kalo sekarang pengennya konten yang aku post ini bisa lebih berisi dan bermanfaat buat kalian semua :))
Ok, back to the content, jadi kemarin ini aku baru aja “menemukan” web series yang lumayan “ngena” banget buat aku. Abis nonton tuh rasanya kayak “yaa Allah apalah aku ini, lemah banget” :(( iya, emang selemah itu kayaknya aku wkwk jadi web seriesnya ini judulnya “Melamar”, bisa disearch di channelnya “Hijab Alila” (itu video eps.1 nya yaa.. lainnya search aja di youtube). Durasinya untuk sebuah web series terbilang cukup pendek, cuma sekitar 4-6 menitan aja di tiap episodenya. Tenang aja, web series ini udah tamat kok. Jadi, kalian yang nonton gabakal mati penasaran nungguin mereka update web seriesnya seminggu sekali wkwk
Kalo kalian expect isinya tentang seorang perempuan dilamar sama kekasihnya, so sorry, you’re wrong! haha Nah, cerita yang diangkat di web series ini sebenernya berasal dari keseharian kita. Jadi, ceritanya ringan dan mudah untuk dipahami, tapi mungkin akan agak susah buat ditiru(?) Kenapa susah? Soalnya kalo dikaitkan dengan keadaan di dunia saat ini tuh udah jarang gitu lho nemuin orang-orang yang kayak di web series tersebut. Contoh gampangnya nih, aku kan seorang muslim, mestinya nih aku menjaga jarak terhadap lawan jenis dan kalo bisa pas ngobrol pun jangan sampai bertatapan(?) tapi, in real life, kalo aku ngomong ga natep orang yang ngajak ngomong (mau laki-laki ataupun perempuan) nanti dianggepnya ga sopan dan ga menghargai lawan bicaranya. So, my point here is bukan tentang kalian harus menjadi muslim/ muslimah yang terus saling jaga jarak banget gitu terhadap lawan jenis hehe karena buat aku pribadi hal itu susah banget banget banget buat dilakuin:(( since I have a lot of boy friends and almost everyday surrounded by them (tapi kalo kalian bisa seperti yaa alhamdulillah.. dilanjutkan yaa sobat :)) semoga tidak goyah hehe)
Nah, hal yang bikin web series ini ngena banget menurut aku adalah tentang sebuah keikhlasan. Kalian bisa belajar tentang ikhlas ini dari cerita si pemeran utama yang tegar dan ikhlas banget sama apa yang terjadi cz she knows that all of it happened because of Allah. Lewat cerita web series ini, kita diajarkan bahwasannya apa yang menurut kita baik belum tentu baik untuk kita menurut Allah. And, when you can’t get what you want it means that Allah have another ones that is better for you. Ketika doamu tidak dikabulkan, bukan berarti Tuhan ga sayang sama kamu, tapi Ia sedang mempersiapkan yang lebih baik atau bahkan yang terbaik untukmu. Kalau udah begini, gausah nyalahin diri sendiri atau Tuhan mu. Daripada mengeluh, sedih, atau marah, mendingan kamu coba instropeksi diri dan perbaiki diri deh. Moreover, kalian juga harus IKHLAS! It’s the most important thing from this web series! (menurut aku yaa hehe) kenapa gitu? soalnya kalo ga ikhlas yaa percuma gitu lho.. jangan-jangan nanti kalian malah terobsesi dan yang parahnya menjadi pendendam demi mendapatkan suatu hal(?) jangan sampe gitu yaa, guys:(
Dah gitu aja pendapat aku tentang web seriesnya. Gamau kasih spoiler banyak-banyak biar kalian tau dan baper sendiri aja pas nontonnya hahaha Intinya sih web series ini selain bikin baper yang nonton juga ngasih pelajaran yang berharga ke penontonnya. Buat yang udah nonton boleh share pendapat kalian di comment yaa.. yang belum nonton yaa ayo atuh buruan nonton hehe happy watching!
