constant monogamist's date

I know the title sounds so serious, i found it first then tried to create these line and i dont think i did some justice to the title. Any way this is the only poem that made me so in love, in a delirious way....

there's a day between todays and tomorrows
when our lives arrangedly clenched
with those lines that explain how world treats us
where admiration and promises are layed unconsciously
that soon we'll be more than just this distance
between here and there, so often i wonder
if there's even a slight doubt
that tomorrow's sun will shine on us
in unity....

not just the sun that shines on me shines on the moon that shines on you.

nasty orientation day

Sunday, 10th sept 2007

i intended to come to my campus to meet my lecturer, to discuss about my thesis. It sacrificed the meeting with the school i would teach soon after the Ied Fitri. And quite confusing the way my 2nd lecturer asked questions and the stares [LOL], he really attacked me and i wasnt really prepared for that, what a bad student i am. Then i saw these people doing exercise in pretty dumb moves. It was for the orientation day of the new students, i used to be part of them , then part of the committee. Hard to say which one was better, being the new student or the committee. Both got pressure from the senior, both tiring. I prefer to be the senior, like this year.... i spent time to just watch people screamed and shouted at nothing [at people but for no reason, most of the time]. Hilarious how my seniors [even the drop-outs came for this] did the exact same things just like when i was the new student and committee. An act of fight between the senior and the committee. Then nasty how they made people did physical things [read: push ups,] literally kissed the floor.

i made some videos of this day, i think i'm gonna send them to friends.... Hehe indonesians' students orientation day........................................

chronicle of life and death

what a terrifying title indeed, but nothing to be alert. this morning Sony sent me sms askin about my feeling towards someone, whether i think he loves me or not. well its a tough [and rough?] question i suppose, cant really answer it although there's a slight [tiny mini] belief that he does or did or will HAHA, but its not at all love, just like how i feel. Love is a funny thing that Sony himself is thinking about putting it down for awhile so he can do some business on other part of life. good idea. And me? i'd love to dance in other people's shoes for awhile, forget the love life and meet hell lots of people, i know i will soon. Sipirili!!!

new people to meet

it's so nice when you every now and then cross someone else's life in such arranged or unarranged way. recently i met some people who amazingly reminded me to people i hold dear in my heart. how was my feeling? ehm quite delirious with missing the dear person and trying to catch the essence of this new person, not to then compare them completely. but mostly they only talked in the same way.

somehow i dont sense the friendship with these people i met recently, why? mostly maybe because we were there, at the same place at the same time for the reason of business. its hard then to place yourself, in what position........ its lame

feeling great in depth of silliness

When you give up on something and try to lay it low, it will eventually come to you in such a wonderful way, it happens to me. Life is great recently.... i feel hilarious-delirious in a great way. I love and miss everyone. Firman BP is here with me right now, we have nice times of culinary experiences together. We'll soon be 2fat people LOL.

fresh crispy morning....and all

welcome to the fresh crispy morning..... when life's a little bit hasty thats what i can be grateful of. early morning with sunshine on your face, nothing more gentle than the sun light that wakes you up. thats why i always open my curtain... but today the sun is so lazy and so am i for i woke up at 9 and stayed in bed until 10ish reread the cosmo mag. to then ready for the world? never ready enough.

there is one word that lingers lately, menanti a.k.a wait, i just realize how that word can juggle someone's life. makes it stuck in uncertainty or maybe the other way around, it can be an answer for everything you want. just in one word, menanti. the question then, for me, "apa yang kunanti, apa yang kutunggu?" maybe the day of tomorrow?! when the morning is started with that glowing light which enlighten the heart. one thing for sure, eh?

Shame for u

the electricity went out again yesterday and i decided to just listen to my CDs and went to Lily Allen's. then my attention stucked on this one song Shame For U. Huekekek it reminded me sooooo much about someone, unfortunately for the time being i cant make him listen to it. Ah then i bought a new CD of Daniel Sahuleka, he sings Dont Sleep Away The Night in a different way from Glenn Fredly. And i love You Make My World So Colorful, he's so romantic eh? and his voice........... its just his diction in the indonesian songs is so weird hehe, maybe because he lives abroad too long?

seize the day or die regretting

if you never heard any of Avenged Sevenfold song, you should listen to this one. Promise its such a great song, sad but also strong at the same time. Just loooove it.

"Seize The Day"

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry
These streets we travel on will undergo our same lost past

I found you here, now please just stay for a while
I can move on with you around
I hand you my mortal life, but will it be forever?
I'd do anything for a smile, holding you 'til our time is done
We both know the day will come, but I don't want to leave you

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry (a melody, a memory, or just one picture)

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

Newborn life replacing all of us, changing this fable we live in
No longer needed here so where do we go?
Will you take a journey tonight, follow me past the walls of death?
But girl, what if there is no eternal life?

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time
But I'm too young to worry (a melody, a memory, or just one picture)

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

Trials in life, questions of us existing here, don't wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real

So, what if I never hold you, yeah, or kiss your lips again?
Woooaaah, so I never want to leave you and the memories of us to see
I beg don't leave me

Seize the day or die regretting the time you lost
It's empty and cold without you here, too many people to ache over

Trials in life, questions of us existing here, don't wanna die alone without you here
Please tell me what we have is real

Silence you lost me, no chance for one more day [x2 then continues in the background]
I stand here alone
Falling away from you, no chance to get back home
I stand here alone
Falling away from you, no chance to get back home

In your shoes

Beautiful how I hear this story
Once again thru different view
Like world doesn’t only revolve around me
Feels like I’m so near by you
I’m in your shoes now
Oh can we just simply go?
Or laying, like you wish, so low
Am willing to take this vow
To be patient with the time
To laugh with every pain
With you, I promise, I’ll be fine
I’ll dance with you under this endless rain

trip to little island

every trip always brings something you can remember, unique thing of a time somewhere far from you usually are. Interesting! I remember seeing a man on a bus, and then quoting from Cinta Brontosaurus when Dika said that when we see people they all look ordinary, man without any label of problem and misery. Perfect image you want everybody to see, hidden from all the pain.

Anyway, the trip this time was great coz it was without any fight hehe. And this time we played all the games they offered, the cart, trampolin, the tower and all. But i felt so peace when i was in the planetarium with the lights off and stars on the ceiling, with the music on I was somewhere else for few moments until some babies cried. HUH!

Look for a piece of peace, in your everyday is not a piece of cake

exhausted

My sis moved in with me a week ago, she's an older sis but i always feel like i'm babysitting her. She now works in town, my bro in law business. but its not her that makes me exhausted i guess, it was more to this constant thoughts and the torturing flood. for once in my life i didnt know where to rest, that damn flood even made me sick, still am. The only ones who care then, my best friend Sony and cousin Tari. I didnt even tell my mom.

Btw i had a bad dream last night, my tooth was off!! my aunt said its a bad sign of death. Since it was an upper tooth it meant that death of someone older, o'oh.

This circle of uncertainty

I feel like life's been so funny, entertaining and uncertain, it's good enough. Hehe last saturday night it was quite awkward for me, i spent the night with a girlfriend there's a sense of reminiscence as we shared the latest news. She accompanied me having my dinner and treated me a drink as part of her guilt for forgetting my birthday [she shouldnt have], then on the way home i thought i needed a pen. So I went to find one, but appeared that most of the stationery shops were closed. Suddenly I realized i was a girl half craving for a pen on Saturday night hehe, it was funny but for a reason of course that i need it for writing. But what sucked was that it led me to meet someone i least expected. O'oh.....

the question popped out

It’s just a week ago when Kaspar and I chatted on his birthday and we discussed about being too young to get married, but in the end we asked each other to get a spouse. He said “get yourself a husband” and yesterday the question popped out of nowhere. Question of “will you marry me?” from somebody else, not Kaspar of course. But it must be one of his jokes, that I don’t understand the reason why he even asked that. Somehow then I remember about my cousin wish for my birthday that I wouldn’t make it to my single-till-2010 resolution and reminds me to Josh who said that falling in love is such a waste of time and body. LMAO

I told 2 girls about it, Ulfa because she was happened to be online at the same time and Nova because she sent me text message asking what I got for my birthday from beloved one. They both thought it was someone from the program, they mentioned different names but it wasn’t them girls… Ulfa gave me this loonng advice while I haven’t even thought about it, Nova asked why I didn’t just be with “the name she mentioned” and I simply said he didn’t like me. Like Maniac Street Preacher says your love alone is not enough.

Being this old, thanks Menur for emphasizing on this, I now know that the beautiful feeling is not when you love someone but when you’re loved. It was there but I didn’t realize that’s what I wanted and all I had to do was putting a little effort to divert the feeling I had for somebody towards this person. But I also can’t say I made a mistake, at some point there’s something Avril would say as “it’s so beautiful, it makes you wanna cry” moment.

"Innocence"
Waking up I see that everything is OK
The first time in my life and now it's so great
Slowing down I look around and I am so amazed
I think about the little things that make life great
I wouldn't change a thing about it
This is the best feeling
[Chorus]
This innocence is brilliant
I hope that it will stay
This moment is perfect
Please don't go away
I need you nowAnd I'll hold on to it
Don't you let it pass you by

I found a place so safe, not a single tear
The first time in my life and now it's so clear
Feel calm, I belong, I'm so happy here
It's so strong and now I let myself be sincere
I wouldn't change a thing about it
This is the best feeling

[Chorus]
It's a state of bliss, you think you're dreaming
It's the happiness inside that you're feeling
It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry
It's a state of bliss, you think you're dreaming
It's the happiness inside that you're feeling
It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry
It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry

This innocence is brilliant
Makes you wanna cry
This innocence is brilliance
Please don't go away
Cause I need you now
And I'll hold on to it
Don't you let it pass you by

lil thought

I heard from my sister about a car which fell from the 6th floor of a mall in Jakarta and I thought Gosh, God kept on increasing the reasons of death while human kept on decreasing it. Kindda freaked the shit out of you eh? At least now we have something to grateful for, here we are, like John Mayer said “before the accident” being healthy and conscious about it. For me it’s always good to know the existence of the higher power.

Been wondering lately what the future holds…. My step mom talked about me getting married the other day and I said don’t worry it’d take time till then. But what was on my mind “will I ever?” I suppose Maya has put a little contribution on this thought. It’s not a blaming statement any at all, I mean before I always had a perfect picture of a family of my own, spend the rest of my life living in a quite place with my perfect picture of a man [just like one I met on the bus] but then maybe life is more than that. I wanna see the world, meet people, gain wisdom and knowledge. I want to have a little world in my heart before I die but also not regretting that I miss a thing.

I remember when we talked about life, Kaspar said life’s a canvas go ahead and choose my own color, at this very moment it’s still confusing. I don’t even know what I want, I never knew what I wanted until it’s in front of me and I like it that way I was born as spontaneous person than a planner. The same person said [although I don’t know whether he meant it] that I would go far in life, amin. Talking about what people said about me, Sarah said I had mischievous smile, I didn’t even know the meaning and still don’t know how to spell it and did I? My oh my.


Life’s a roller coaster, sometimes it moves so fast
We loose control of our self
Sometimes it’s quite slow
We can enjoy the ride and laugh
Let me see your mischievous smile
After your breathtaking sob
Coz after awhile you’d understand
How life is ever gonna be

"Communication"

Been so into this song of the cardigans beside "carnival" which always makes me sad everytime I hear it but cant get enough of it. Kindda believe this is what i feel =P



For 27 years I’ve been trying to believe and confide in
Different people I’ve found.
Some of them got closer then others
Some wouldn’t even bother and then you came around
I didn’t really know what to call you, you didn’t know me at all
But I was happy to explain.
I never really knew how to move you
So I tried to intrude through the little holes in your vanes
And I saw youBut that’s not an invitation
That’s all I getIf this is communication
I disconnect I’ve seen you, I know you
But I don’t knowHow to connect, so I disconnect
You always seem to know where to find me
and I’m still here behind youIn the corner of your eye.
I’ll never really learn how the love you
But I know that I love you through the hole in the sky.
Where I see you And that’s not an invitation
That’s all I getIf this is communicationI disconnect
I’ve seen you, I know youBut I don’t know
How to connect, so I disconnect
Well this is an invitation It’s not a thread
If you want communication
That’s what you getI’m talking and talking
But I don’t knowHow to connect
And I hold a record for being patient
With your kind of hesitation

the unsweated small stuff

My oh my I feel delirious lately, even Sony complained about me and giving the "dont sweat small stuff" advice. I had to say It couldnt work this time, this black cloud's still here going round round in my head, so annoying. But then some quite funny also happened to me:

1. About a week ago I had another accident caused by my cardigans, it was stucked on the bike's chain and i had to watch the cardigans was torn into pieces. My friend asked what kind of stupidity it was, I said it was misfortune come and help me. I was really lucky that lots of people helped me and that the car behind me didnt hit me. Good lucks in bad luck.

2. Finally finished the KKN paper, yeah after all its merely a paper saying that I have already did what the university ask all the students to do, work with the community. One case checked!

3. Still dont undestand the way some guys think. Weirded me out sometimes, just for an example - my ex boss asked me whether i have watched Spiderman 3 I said nope and he asked whether i would watched it on saturday night. I said no, I had to work and he thought i had a date. But actually because the idea for going out to the movie on saturday night with him freaked me out, why? Because he had wife, still has. What worse was he said, in front of many people hell yeah, that he wanted me to be his 2nd wife but i wanted to be the 3rd. Haha i knew it was a joke but still, it was kind of social homicide for me.

4. I think i havent put the hilarious taste in these posts. Maybe this would be one, so days ago me and my cousin, Tari went to eat Pempek [food from Palembang] and then came an old woman, i've seen her before, askin for money. What different from this woman was that she had this wide smile, everytime, which showed her toothless gums. She was so sweet. But then what was funny, according to Tari and giggled over it, that after Tari gave her some money she started to pray for us, but it was EATING PRAYER. Well it supposed to be a prayer for our soul or safety or something, but it was it, eating prayer. While its a prayer u do for yourself haha.

5. I'm quite addicted to McD's gourmet wrap but fasting at this very moment, thank god!! Should’ve done it long before.

6. Hell I want to go home, but this Saturday job just makes me cant. And I did bad thing by skipping my teaching class, I went to this seminar about Indonesia and Iran’s nuclear and after I hung out with Kartika, CWY 2006 participant. I ended up forgot things I had to do that day, the class and returning the book to the library. We had fun though, talking about boys. Hey I’ve talked about this before. Hehe

7. I want to talk to people I cant talk to, that’s funny, coz if I could talk to then I would mention coz I already am talking to them lol.

8. My birthday is coming, don’t even realize it’s May!!! A lot of things to do and start to be out of hand………………………. And my birthday wish is for some people to be with me, people who promised would come.

Intoxicating Evenings

I feel mean for saying this poem is for Menyur after I read it over and over again, but I think you should read it Nyurr...

Is he overjoyed by the intoxicating evenings?
That he forgets about the delicate future of theirs
The not-possible-to-be-whole-anymore tomorrows
When the eves could not be repeated, just rewind in memory
Silence will sing the lullaby of a lonely lover
who falls asleep with thousands promises
written not but within his heart, sincerely
which erased gradually by thousand nights
of evil thought that she could be with someone else

So judge me Nyur hehe I am quite ready for that =) hopefully i do some justice, if not complete justice.

Feel like a Santa Klaus today, got few souvenirs for people and i love the part of going to the post office to send the package for Aji. It was quite long time since the last time i went there. And I sang Mr. Postman.

Suppose to post a poem for Menur here, but i just forgot where i wrote it... Huh! Sorry nyurrr but it was such a poem that really reminded me of you in a he point of few. Oh so determinated to look for it!!!

moment of peace

I woke up this morning and felt i have to go campus to just looking for some reference for my thesis which i couldnt get yesterday. Quite confusing, it is. Hopefully I'll gradute next year, amin amin, so when Kaspar comes I can meet him without any burden load, not anymore. I just wanna breathe easily again. Last night i reread my last year journal and some parts were hilarious, they made me giggled. and now i remember when I could breathe so easily, forgetting the ridiculous thought about someone. It was when I was in Singkawang, on the last afternoon that we spent there, BP, Ahmad and I went to the far end of the Pasir Panjang beach and found this enourmous gigantic rock. On the way back to the hotel it was almost dusk and the scenery and the everything was gorgeous and for few moment without any sound of human I felt so peace. None ever could ruin my happiness at that moment, i was being careless about feeling and all. I wanna be just like that again....

in our shoes

This might sounds so mean although I never mean to, but basically human wants to feel comfort right? And sometimes we find it when we know someone somehow feels the same as we do. I just had a fun funny chat with Menur and knew quite by surprise she felt almost the same as I did. I can’t say that then I was happy because it’s not a situation everyone wants to be in, in fact I don’t believe anyone wants to be in. Complicated feeling of not knowing what you want and what’s best for you, not able to reach a space you want nor move to another one. But what’s good is that we’re both quite a good joker and laugh all the time about our common thing. Miss you girl, I meant it when I proposed you to live with me hehehe.

my friend's words: "you spend too much time thinking about life instead of just living" ah might be true, but i love thinking about it dude.
