DIVERGENT Quotes


As far as I remember, I had never watched any movie twice in the cinema. But I just did it for Divergent! It’s not merely because I like everything about the movie, but also because working for hours for my presentation got me so bored today.  Oh I am  defintely not an Erudite, aren’t I?

So as shown in the movie that in the future we’ll live in groups/factions. Each faction values one virtue above everything else. The first faction, Dauntless, think bravery is keen. The second faction, Erudite, loves knowledge. The third faction, Abnegation, is pro-self-sacrifice. The fourth faction, Amity, values friendship. The fifth faction, Candor, is into honesty. 

I took a aptitude quiz that I happened to find on Facebook about the faction I belong in the movie. And see, I am DIVERGENT. My result depicts high scores for 3 factions: Abnegation, Amity, and Erudite. That aslo explains that my character falls into slefless, kind, and intelligent. To check yours, you may click here:
  


Like my previous post about any movie previously, here I share some quotes from the movie that in my conviction is really strong and into our daily life:

“We believe in ordinary acts of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand up for another.”


“Sometimes crying or laughing are the only options left, and laughing feels better right now.”

“A brave man acknowledges the strength of others.”

“Fear doesn't shut you down; it wakes you up” 

“It must require bravery to be honest all the time” 

“Sometimes, the best way to help someone is just to be near them”

“I don't want to be just one thing. I can't be. I want to be brave, and I want to be selfless, intelligent, and honest and kind”

“The future belongs to those who know where they belong”

“Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it”

“We believe in ordinary acts of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand up for another”

“Everyone’s afraid of something”

“Your mind works in a million different ways”

“We’re like the factionless now. We’ve left everything behind, but we found ourselves and each other”


2013 Reflection

January

I can still sense the excitement and the tiredness of my 2-month graduation backpacking trip in Malaysia, Laos, and Thailand. Arrived in Indonesia in the mid of Jan and straightaway got stuck in my graduation preparation. Another wonderful thing besides my master graduation happened in January was a visit from a best friend from South Korea.



Fabruary-March

Nothing really happened. Just got hectic submitting my CV and cover letter to some organizations. Almost had a chance to work in Bali but suddenly cancelled. It’s also a time that I visited Jakarta the most for job test.

April

Finally got a job in one of foreign companies in Indonesia. I got accepted for their future manager program. So.. time to learn and to act as a manager. But sadly that I had to officially leave from Yogyakarta to Jakarta. Definitely sad but all the great memory in Jogja would still remain in my mind. 

May-September

Experienced a month living in Jakarta. It was lonely and queer. But afterwards I moved to Kediri, East Java, until September for my work assignment. Luckily Kediri is a very nice small town. The people are nice, the foods are delicious, and the town is laid-back. 

 

It’s quite near to everywhere in East Java so I had my 2nd chance to visit Bromo. Yet unfortunately I still missed some interesting spots.


October

Moved back to Jakarta and strived to settle my life in the bustling capital city of Indonesia.

November

Fell in love again with someone but it’s still complicated. But I started to realize that the idea to live in Jakarta is not that bad. But still, I don’t want to spend the rest of my life here. I got to know and met some nice people who I could call friends. This month, I had my chance to visit the old-ancient-tribe of Badui in West Java. Trip was amazing!



December

Few trips to Cianjur and to my hometown, Pangkep. I visited a newly found historic ruins on a mountain in Cianjur called Gunung Padang and went to witness the second largest karst in the world located nearby my hometown in South Sulawesi called Rammang-rammang.
