Agnes Monica Carrier

Agnes Monica first appeared on television at the age of 6 as the host of a children's television program similar to Americas popular Mickey Mouse Club.

She also started singing during that time. However her first Album was not a big hit because at that time children didn’t buy many tapes.

Just 12 years old Agnes Monica started an acting carrier with her first appearance in the soap opera “Lupus Milenia”. Although not a big success lots of other offers for Indonesian sinetron followed. Her breakthrough came with her playing a leading role in the popular sinetron “Pernikahan Dini” in 2001.

In 2003 she also had her first big success as a singer with the release of her second album "And The Story Goes...". Her newest album "Whaddup A...!" got released in 2005 and was also an instant success.

Agnes Monica is a regular visitor to Seminyak or Legian area in Bali and likes to spend her free time in villas and hotels there.

Bunga Citra Lestasri


A great song by Bunga Citra Lestari which is featured in the movie: Cinta Pertama. On the Cinta Pertama post, I have shared with out the video clip, let me share with you the lyrics here, so we can sing along and get the meaning from the song.





Sejak ia pergi dari hidupku
Kumerasa sepi
Kau tinggalkan ku sendiri disini
Tanpa satu yang pasti

Aku tak tahu harus bagaimana
Aku merasa tiada berkawan
Selain dirimu
Selain cintamu

Chorus:
Kirim aku malaikatmu
Biar jadi kawan hidupku
Dan tunjukkan jalan yang memang
Kau pilihkan untukku
Kirim aku malaikatmu
Karena ku sepi berada disini
Dan didunia ini aku tak mau sendiri

Tanpa terasa kuteteskan air mata
Yang tiada berhenti mengiringi
Kisah dihati

Aku tak tahu harus bagaimana
Aku merasa tiada berkawan
Selain dirimu
Selain cintamu

Chorus 2x

Dan didunia ini aku tak mau sendiri

Check out the English translated lyrics of this song: Aku Tak Mau Sendiri (I don’t Want to be Alone


Since he’s been gone from my life
I feel lonely
You left me alone here
Without single truth

I don’t know what to do
I felt I have no friends
Other than you
Other than your love

Chorus:
Send me your angel
Let it be my life partner
And show me the path
That you have chosen for me
Send me your angel
‘cos I’m lonely here
And in this world I don’t want to be alone

Without knowing, tears are dropping
accompanying without end
the story in my heart

I don’t know what to do
I felt I have no friends
Other than you
Other than your love

Chorus 2x

And in this world I don’t want to be alone

Dian Sastro


Diandra Paramitha Sastrowardoyo (born March 16, 1982 in Jakarta, Indonesia) -- more popularly known as Dian Sastro or Dian Sastrowardoyo -- is an Indonesian model and actress.

In 1996, she was the cover girl of Gadis, a teen magazine in Indonesia. She later became popular as Daya, the protagonist in Pasir Berbisik (Whispering Sand). Dian finally kick-started her career on the big screen with a cameo role in the highly popular Malay Film Puteri Gunung Ledang before quickly establishing herself as one of Indonesia's most influential actresses, starring in films such as Ada Apa Dengan Cinta (AADC) (What's Up With Love? (film)), Banyu Biru, Ungu Violet and Belahan Jiwa.

Her recent (as of March 2007) television appearances include playing Raya in Dunia Tanpa Koma and a brief stint as the host of the game show Kuis Super Milyarder Tiga Milyar

Family

Ms. Sastrowardoyo is the daughter and only child of the late Ariawan Sastrowardoyo (1955-1995) and Dewi Parwati Sastrowardoyo (née Setyorini). Her paternal grandparents are Dr. Sumarsono Sastrowardoyo, a retired physician and surgeon (and author of the memoir Kembali ke Uteran (Return to Uteran)), and the late Ina Sastrowardoyo.

She is the niece of Marina Joesoef, an artist; Dr. Aswin W. Sastrowardoyo, currently a physician and formerly guitarist and singer with Chaseiro[2], a music group of the 1970s and 80s; and Lisa Damayanti Sastrowardoyo. She is also the grand-niece of, among others, Sunario (1902-1997), Indonesia's minister of foreign affairs from 1953 to 1956; Dra. Sukanti Suryochondro, a former instructor in women's studies at the University of Indonesia; and Subagio Sastrowardoyo (1924-1995), a noted poet and literary critic.

A screenplay based on Kembali ke Uteran is in the works, with plans for Ms. Sastrowardoyo to play her own great-grandmother in the film adaptation.

Ms. Sastrowardoyo's family name is derived from sastra (Sanskrit, writings) and wardaya (Sanskrit, heart), so literally means "writings of the heart."

Her paternal great-grandfather, Sutejo Sastrowardoyo, traced the family's ancestry back to 15th century Java.
