Ini pertama kalinya untukku menuliskan sebuah post untuk Movie Adaptation film Indonesia di blog. Aku sudah mempunyai buku Perahu Kertas karya Dee cukup lama, dan buku itu masih duduk menunggu di dalam rak untuk dibaca. Setelah tahu buku ini akan difilmkan, aku tidak ragu untuk segera menaikkannya ke tingkat teratas buku yang untuk dibaca selanjutnya; so wait my review for it! ;) Awalnya aku tahu Perahu Kertas akan difilmkan bukan karena melihat trailer atau posternya terlebih dahulu, melainkan aku secara tidak sengaja menemukan video youtube Soundtrack film ini yang berjudul "Perahu Kertas" yang dinyanyikan oleh Maudy Ayunda (pemeran utama di filmnya). Honestly speaking, lagunya yang mellow dan suara yang merdu mendayu-dayu itu berhasil merayuku untuk mencari tahu official trailer dari filmnya. Trailer and book summary down below, check it out ;)*i also posted the soundtrack video as well.
today, is posting day for Top 5 Book Boyfriends in 2011. this is trending in BBI, so i guess i'll choose my own Top 5 Book Boyfriends ;) i didn't read much in 2011, only a bit more than 70 books. so i don't really have much to choose from :\ but i'll try my best and pick this year's Top 5 Book Boyfriends :) before going on to the list, i'm sharing a new song by Jason Mraz, titled I Won't Give up. i think this song is quite suitable to accompany this post :) play it while reading if you're interested ;)
so here's the list!
1. ♥ Peeta Mellark ♥
The Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins
Peeta definitely had my attention in 2011. when i'm posting this, the first name that came to mind is his name. the sweet baker boy from The Hunger Games series, who fell in love with Katniss since he was 5! he's such a sweet talker and how he love Katniss is sooo adorable. i really don't understand why Katniss has much difficulty choosing between Peeta and Gale. Peeta, i love you! congratulations, you're my number 1 best book boyfriend this year *smooch* :* now please bake me a cake ;)
2. ♥ Niko Fareli ♥
1000 Musim Mengejar Bintang by Charon
my second best would be Niko from 1000 Musim Mengejar Bintang. there are many reasons why i choose him as one of my best boyfriends. first, he is a guy who is determined to reach and fulfill his dream. i think that's very admirable. and in romance, he's very persistent. he doesn't give up easily; even though Laura rejected him numerous times. like i said in my review, this book makes me wonder, is there a guy like Niko in real life? :)
3. ♥ Luke Brandon ♥
Shopaholic series by Sophie Kinsella
he's the guy from the chicklit series: Shopaholic. Luke is the one super-guy who can manage to withstand Becky Bloomwood. i think he's praiseworthy because he understands Becky so well; like when she's keeping a secret wallet. and in Shopaholic & Baby, Luke has become really sweet and much more loving towards Becky. i would be very grateful if i had a boyfriend (or even a husband) like him.
4. ♥ Andrius Arvydas ♥
Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys
Andrius is a very memorable character from the book Between Shades of Gray. besides being handsome, his courageous trait also makes him a very attractive character. how he sacrifices many things to help others; how he showed his love towards Lina. i also think that Andrius is a very dependable boy during the difficult times in the story. i think that's the reason why he's on this list :')
5. ♥ Eddie ♥
The Five People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom
i know that Eddie's very old, he even died already. lol. :P but i learned so many things from Eddie; i guess that's how i want a boyfriend, to be able to teach me new things and making me a better person :) i also really admire his relationship with his wife: Marguerite. as any other relationships in real life, they have ups and downs. but judging from Eddie's meeting with Marguerite in heaven, i sure know how much he loves her. and that makes him number 5 best book boyfriends in 2011 ;)
well, that's it for the list ;) i hope i'll be able to give more awards list next time :) bye!

i wonder why i never heard of sam tsui or christina grimmie before. they are absolutely very very talented! and the music arrangements by kurt schneider is really amazingly wonderful. the song titled Just a Dream is a song originally by Nelly. but i've got to say that this cover version is a hundred times better than the original version! :) i loved the mellow opening; and the vocalists voice is just absolutely wonderful. i think sam and christina should make a duet album or something :9 i kept watching the video over and over and can't seem to get bored with it.
after browsing through google, i found out that sam & christina have both released an album! and then i'm thinking, i must get those. anyway, it's really nice to come across this video, so i get to know them. wonderful music! ;)
