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.

THE HEIRS – BANYUMASAN CARTOON VERSION

This is my favorite comedy scene from The Heirs drama taken from episode 16. It’s when article about Kim Tan as the second child of President Kim as well as the main holder of Jeguk Group was spread on the internet. Even reporters came to Jeguk School to interview other students. Two Yellow reporters appeared before Cha Eun-sang that morning and asked question about Kim Tan. Feeling burdensome, Cha Eun-sang couldn’t move away. Suddenly Choi Young-do and Jo Myung-soo came and saved her. Here is the short dialogue from that scene but in Banyumas language. People called it “bahasa ngapak”, even you can laugh just by hearing it. I’m inspired making this by comedy program “Kartun Banyumasan” which is aired by TVRI station. Reporter: Mbake, ngerti nek Kim Tan mangkat sekolah dina kie ora?
