Merantau

Merantau .... !! Is not just a movie, its Life .... !!!!

It’s been awhile since my last post, not in the mood to write anything, coz each time when I write I am so lazy to mind my language used and also the word and sentence orientation, but for this post I think, I’ll ignore all that just in order to get the things in my mind out. Went to watch Merantau movie just now with Kaey, the movie is really nice, especially the part where Yuda have to leave his family to travel to Jakarta to start his own Silat class, that touches my heart. Does this means that my heart is too soft now already? It never was … anyway … there is another part from the movie that I like. The part where Yuda try to safe Astri from harm, that’s the point where Yuda didn’t know that he is actually destroying Astri’s life .. Thou its good to safe people but at times, that is not how people want it to be. But of all, the thing I like most is still the fighting, the way Yuda fight is really nice, you can actually tell that he is a fighter himself instead of just an actor, well … if you can tell … !! But why I like the fighting part? Coz it reminds me of things I left behind many years ago … ! It’s a long long story but anyway, I’ll try to blog a little here. Many years back when I was a child, fighting seems to be a fun thing for me, I love to fight for no good reason and so I was put in places where I can fight all the time .. Legally … of course … ! martial art class … from the crave of fighting … it slowly change me from having pain as pleasure … that is the reason why I always say I play painball and not paintball, coz the more pain for me, the better the game is !! Martial art is no longer a medium of self protection for me and of course neither it is violence for me, but it has become part of my life. Day and night I would learn more skills, mix up different martial arts and find new ways, new technique, revolutionize martial arts my way … until a point where, people actually think that I am crazy … !! That is why I can tell if Iko Uwais (Yuda) is a fighter himself coz I can evaluate just like how Yuda evaluate the style of fighting from Luc and Ratger in the movie, if any one u notice .. Luc is more into kicking style fighting and Ratger is more into hand fight so that’s the reason why they need to fight together in order to bring down Silat, but of course, it’s a movie .. in the end Yuda will win .. Lame ! But I like the ending thou’ … coz Yuda died ! I finally stop martial art but not for good, the craving is still so strong in me … ! But at least I slow down a litte before I become crazy like how our God or martial arts Bruce Lee has become. Bruce Lee is too crazy about martial arts just like how I do, but his ego kills him … !!
