The worlds are watching Indonesia these weeks since we are the only land which can experience Total Solar Eclipse. Even many tourists and astronomers around the worlds had come weeks ahead to Indonesia to book strategic place to watch this one-life-time phenomenon. In the past, Total Solar Eclipse was occurred 33 years ago in 1983 and it will occur 30 years later in 2046.

"Total solar eclipses occur when the Moon comes between the Sun and the Earth and casts the darkest part of its shadow (the umbra) on Earth. The darkest point of the eclipse is almost as dark as night."

Below are 12 provinces in Indonesia which can experience Total Solar Eclipse:
Palembang, Bangka, Belitung, Palangkaraya, Balikpapan, Sampit, Luwuk, Ternate, Tidore, Palu, Poso, and Halmahera.

I stay in Purbalingga, Central Java. Unfortunately, I cannot watch the TSE. However, it still can be seen since morning when I was walking to office that the sun becomes very-berry-bright-white with the shape of crescent. It’s pretty. Looks like the sun smile at me and wish me ‘happy birthday, Gita’ ^^

Taare Zameen Par

Taare Zameen Par ~ “Like Stars on Earth” (released 21 December 2007) is another movie from Aamir Khan that I adore after Three Idiots and Ghajini . It is really really really a touching and beautiful movie. It tells about an eight-year-old-boy, named Ishaan, who is dyslexic but blessed with excellent painting talent. Taare Zameen Par received numerous awards, including the Filmfare Best Film Award for 2008 and the 2008 National Film Award for Best Film on Family Welfare . It was India's official entry for the 2009 Academy Awards Best Foreign Film but it failed to progress to the nominations short list.

Journey to the East

It was our plan to do touring to Magelang – Yogyakarta by riding motorcycle. Actually, it will be Putri (my best pal) who will rides and I will just be on the back seat ^^ Somehow, plan was changed. And it’s me who force her to “take vacation to Borobudur”, even not riding a motorcycle. I know that riding must be very tiring for her. My first motivation is to take chance before we are married. I mean, go on enjoy your being single girl! And the 2 nd one is having material to write on my blog ^^ So here was our journey. We took a bus on Saturday, January 26 morning to Magelang! Besides taking Putri as my best pal will make the journey great, she also knows about Magelang since she spent her kindergarten time there. We are on the shaking bus 06.07             We caught “Mulyo” bus (it’s a big bus heading to Yogyakarta). We planned to go to Purworejo bus station then change to smaller bus heading to Mage...

They are Tahir Hadiwijoyo alias Tata , Mohammed Kamga ( Kamga ), Nerra Merlin ( Nerra ), dan Chevrina Anayang ( Chevrina )Three have strong vocals characteristics and Tata inserts rap lyric that make each of their songs sound colorful and give identity . Looking at the lyric, it is dreadful sad and meaningful; so deep and slice your heart. And I really love it on its chorus, both the lyric and melody. It’s about how you thankful of loving and being loved. This song is not to discourage. For me, it is to encourage instead ^^ Tak ada kisah tentang cinta yang bisa terhindar dari air mata ~ No story of love that can avoid tears namun ku coba menerima, hatiku membuka siap untuk terluka ~ But I try to accept it, I open my heart to be ready to be hurt Chorus: Cinta tak mungkin berhenti secepat saat aku jatuh hati ~ Love is impossible to stop as fast as I was f...
