The Shawshank Redemption (1994).
Ade gue lagi antusias neh nyariin nih pilem... Soalnya, rata2 kritikus ngasih nilai A+, at least A buat ini karena cerita yang bikin haru biru.
Yang gue tau, ceritanya tentang penjara yah? (baca dari tagline)
Kayanya seru... Tim Robbins sama Morgan Freeman.
Give me review...
Btw, I'm busy lately. I go out in the morning, and go home to my boarding at noon. Exhausting... :? . I early go to sleep, I just get too tired to deal with my computer even for some times. And things I am working in become complicated & troublesome lately... :cry: Need more patience.
But still I am frequently online to check all my inboxes.

| I'M VVIP!!! |
| 03.09.05 (2:02 pm) [edit] |
I’m tired. This was hectic! Fantastic, anyway!
Guess what?!
I’ve got Maksim’s VVIP Ticket!!!
Whoooa! I just need to shriek! Because this is b-day gift from mom and dad! This is too exciting, I can barely resist! I’ve been earnest for this!
This would be thrilling! Maksim and Twilite Orchestra splendid… Well, if they ask me to request, it would be… hmmm…
Croatian Rhapsody
Or Liszt’s Liebestraume when they refuse to play Piano Player
Hmmm, I’d like Maksim to sign my TCR novel…
(stop daydreaming… )
Oh no… Again. Am I insane to be a party to VVIP?! I just do not believe that this was their present for my birthday. Brilliant present, from brilliant persons, for brilliant one :D.
Mom and dad, thank you so much!!! Thanks for understanding that I have a keen ear for classical music :lol: ! Havala lijepa!!! (Now I am busy to decide which clothes to pick although the concert are going to be kicked off 40 days later :roll: ! They would be definitely black and ceremonial)
Today my lil’ bro had his b-day (8 March). I congratulated via message.
But, I had my b-day on 4 of March, and he forgot it! He even did not send me SMS! I don’t give a damn, he apologised… (but I’m still waiting for gifts!). To know that I got the VVIP, he envies!
OK, does anyone recognize who he is?
“Sretan rodendan, Dita…(Croat., means ‘happy b-day’). I've got this lovely cake for you.”
:lol:
Taka and Hermione brought presents this afternoon (you’re late late gals, hehe!). Taka gave a lovely photo frame, while Her’s present was a pink heart-shaped music box. It’s Fur Elise! Love it! I know you were deliberating to neglect me, hehe. But, thank you so much… They got mad that I’ll be going to the concert!
Viviabond at MIB, thanks for the pic
Addition, attending a concert of classical music is a very different experience from attending a concert of jazz or popular music (rock, rap, country, etc.) Although some audience members may be initially intimidated by the more formal general atmosphere of a classical concert, the rules of etiquette for such a concert are actually straightforward and 'simple' once you get used to them :roll: .
When we go to concerts, we may go for many reasons,
but the most important reason is
to watch and listen to the performers.
The performers are NOT on television.
They are alive;
they can see and hear the audience;
they want to be able to do a great job for you.
Good concert etiquette helps the audience have a good experience.
What some people fail to realize is that the audience can also help the performers perform better.
With no visual or auditory distractions, performers can concentrate on giving a great performance.
They are trying their best to present an enjoyable musical experience for everyone.
To help the performers do their best:
The basic rule is:
[b]Don't do anything
that makes people notice you
instead of the performance.
Be courteous.
Use good judgement.
Use the restroom before the concert.[/b]
Don't wander around in the auditorium, especially while the performers are performing.
Arrive on time. Stay till the end of the performance. Don't leave early to beat the rush.
Don't take pictures, especially flash pictures ( :cry: ).
Turn off all your noise making gadgets, like watches, phones and pagers.
Take your coughs outside. And noisy kids.
Clap enthusiastically to show your appreciation. Don't holler and hoot.
Concert is a multi-sense experience.
You experience the concert with four of your five senses:
You see it.
You hear it.
You may feel it in the vibrations in your chair.
You may smell the scents of the concert hall, or
if you are close to the performers, you may even smell the instruments.
Hopefully, you don't taste it :lol: !
Therefore, [b]SENSE-ATIONAL
CONCERT ETIQUETTE [/b]allows all the participants, including the performers,
to have a positive multi-sense experience.
Some people don't realize this and they do things that can prevent us from experiencing the music without interruption.
Most of the bad examples listed below come from the real life experiences. And each of them is just as likely to be done by an adult as by a child :x !
Once you get the idea of how you might disturb others, you will be able to use good judgment in your own behavior. Common sense and normal courtesy will always be good standards to use.
SENSE OF HEARING
Don't talk or whisper or whistle or hum or sing or drum your fingers or click a pen or tap a pencil or chew your gum loudly or open up crackly food wrappers or snap your fingers with the music or sniff, snort and cough or comb your hair so others can hear you pulling the tangles out.
If you start and continue to sneeze or sniff or cough, please leave the auditorium quietly and quickly. This allows others to concentrate on the music, not on you. This includes taking out crying babies and little kids.
Turn the pages of the program or the music score (if you're following along with the performers) so that others can't hear the pages rattle.
Come in and be seated before the concert starts. Moving around makes an audience notice your sounds, not the music sounds.
Make sure your "beepy" electronic gadgets won't go off during the performance. TURN THEM OFF. This includes watches, phones, beepers and anything else that might disturb others.
Do I even need to mention portable radios, portable games and CD players? Leave them at home. (Using a recording device may be considered a copyright violation. Don't do it... :cry: I'm VVIP)
All performers appreciate enthusiastic applause. Loud screams, whistling, etc., belong at rock concerts, not at symphony performances.
Be careful that your clapping is not so loud that it hurts the ears of the people near you.
When you read your program, you will probably notice between two and five major compositions of music, with several movements listed as subcategories of each. It is best not to clap between movements of a larger composition. Certainly, though, it is sometimes difficult to differentiate between movements and keep track of where the performers are in the course of the program, particularly if you are unfamiliar with classical music. Therefore, if you are unsure of whether or not clapping is appropriate, follow the lead of the experienced audience members around you :roll: . Also note that a slight pause after the end of a composition is sometimes granted by the audience before applause begins, which is basically a way of savoring the “magic” of the music before breaking the spell with clapping.
Please note, when applause does begin at the end of a composition, you may hear other members of the audience shouting “Bravo!” or “Brava!” This is completely acceptable when it occurs after the completion of a performance, and simply means “Well done!” Audience members may also stand (as in a “standing ovation”) when a performance is particularly noteworthy. A further extension of appreciation by the audience or individuals is exhibited when flowers are presented to the soloist(s) during this time of applause.
[b]SENSE OF VISION[/b]
Don't wiggle around or comb your hair or wave your arms or bob your head around or wave your program or try to get your friends attention or rock back and forth in your seat.
Please don't wear hats or have "big" hair. You could block the view of five or six people :lol !
If you have to use the restroom, do your best to hold it. Sit calmly until the music stops and the audience claps. Then in a calm (but fast) manner, leave the auditorium. Do not come back in until you hear clapping again. Then enter and be seated quickly and quietly.
If you arrive late, wait outside the concert hall doors until you hear applause. Then enter quickly and quietly. If you don't know where your seat is, find another seat quickly. Sit there until the intermission so you won't disturb others by hunting for your correct seat. Promise yourself to be on time next time.
Never use cameras during a performance. The noise is annoying and the movement of the camera operator is distracting and the flash is just awful (:cry: oh... poor me)! Even the performers can get confused and make mistakes when cameras are going off at the wrong time.
The only person who should EVER take a picture during a performance is the person hired by the symphony, the official photographer. S/he will know when to click, when to move and when to be still and quiet. S/he will also have the kind of equipment that will not need a flash. (A flash does no good further than about 10 feet anyway.) Video/digital cameras are quieter (but not noiseless), but the movements of the operator are very distracting. No one else should take photos of any kind from the time the concertmaster/mistress tunes the orchestra until after the performance.
Do not bring something else to do while you are listening, like a book, laptop, or homework. Leave your pocket sized fun things at home. Seeing you dig them out and fiddle with them is very disconcerting to others.
Don't pass notes to your friends.
Dressing up is optional, but a classical concert is one of the few occasions left that might be called "special" in our increasingly casual world. Consider dressing up as a sign of respect. After all, if the musicians are in tuxes and gowns, the least you can do is iron those khakis and wear something better than sneakers. Jeans and flip-flops just won't do :wink: .
Although you don’t need to dress as if you were attending a state dinner at the White House or a royal wedding, you will probably feel more comfortable at a classical concert if you dress in a respectful manner. Different audience members will interpret this in different ways, but you should generally avoid clothing with holes, rips, or tears; very casual shorts, skirts, or jeans; and very casual t-shirts or tank tops.
A safe outfit for a female would be a nice dress or suit, and for a male, nice pants and a jacket and tie. Less formal dress may be acceptable, as may more formal dress, but a good rule of thumb might be to dress as if you were going to attend your church, synagogue, or other house of worship, visit the bank for a loan, or make an appearance to defend yourself in court.
For those attending classical concerts in major metropolitan areas, keep in mind that audience members will probably be dressed more formally than in smaller cities or suburbs 8) . For example, a visit to the Metropolitan Opera in New York City would certainly warrant wearing some of your most impressive finery if you enjoy dressing up
[b]SENSE OF TOUCH[/b]
Its hard to imagine that the sense of touch is involved in a concert, but it is. You'll notice it when:
the person behind you starts tapping or pushing the back of your seat in time to the music.
when someone a few seats down from you keeps rocking her chair around and you can feel it.
when the person beside you hogs both arm rests.
when the person next to you puts his coat or her purse in the space where your legs are supposed to fit.
when someone in the row behind you gets up to leave and accidentally bonks you on the head :shock: .
Be considerate. Keep your motions and your "stuff" in your own space.
Use the rest room before the performance so you won't feel uncomfortable and fidgety.
[b]SENSE OF SMELL[/b]
Yes, even your nose gets into the picture at a concert.
Remember - if you are noticing a scent, you are not noticing the music.
Even if it's a nice scent.
Some folks think that part of dressing up is to put on a lot of v-e-r-y fragrant after shave or perfume. This can make others nauseated, have allergic reactions or headaches. Use "good scents": leave them at home.
Some folks get so comfortable in their seats that they remove their shoes and pee-yew - - not a good idea :x ! Keep your shoes on.
Some folks don't bathe enough or they have on dirty clothes and they --well, they stink. Don't be one of them.
Sometimes the mint or gum that folks eat during concerts has a very strong odor. Don't eat during a concert ( :cry: ). Besides, the noise during unwrapping is extrememely noticeable during a concert.
Be considerate. Use scents "scents-ibly."
Being VVIP, I'm bit scared :roll: . Hope I wouldn't ruin the concert :roll: . But, the more I disturb the concert, the more Maks will notice me :lol: . That's good idea, hahaha!
