NEW CALEDONIA

seperti yang kita liat di postingan gue sebelumnya, ada CELTIC WOMAN. ada salah satu lagu yang salah satu personelnya -- LISA KELLY -- bawain, judulnya Caledonia...

begitu denger lagunya yang...hmm...manis, gue jadi tertarik. caledonia itu apa sih?

daaaan ternyata Caledonia adalah sebuah kepulauan milik negara Perancis yang nyerempet-nyerempet dikit lah sama Australia...

yaaah...sekitar di situ deh. keliatan kan yang nyempil kecil banget itu pulaunyaaa. kalo nggak keliatan yaaa...buka peta aja gimana? ahahahaha.

Caledonia Islands ini juga sering disebut Kanaki sama penduduk aslinya. ibukotanya Noumea.
FYI aja nih yaaaa, ternyata Caledonia nggak ada bedanya sama Suriname. kenapa? karena banyak orang Jawa-nya. yeeeeep, jaman dulu, orang Jawa pada hijrah ke negara ini. kalo nggak salah karena dipekerjakan sebagai kuli (terjajah banget sejak dulu kala negara kita...), sebagian lagi karena berusaha ngubah nasib. yaaaah...kan ceritanya nggak jauh-jauh amat lah dari indonesia, jadi nggak bakalan mabok laut kalo naik kapal (apa sih?).
bagi yang orang Jawa, berbahagialah kalo pergi ke sana, soalnya orang Jawa di sana masih make bahasa Jawa sebagai bahasa sehari-hari. cuma anak mudanya emang rata-rata mulai make bahasa Perancis.

keren bangetlah pokoknya negara ini. sampe-sampe orang nagri nyebut Caledonia sebagai salah satu tempat yang nyaris mirip sama surga...hmm...

rata-rata orang di sana dari Eropa dan sedikit banget yang ngerti bahasa inggris, kecuali di ibukota pastinya. jadi kalo mau kesana tanpa modal bahasa perancis, mending bawa kamus, ato bawa penerjemah sekalian kalo mau hahaha.

banyak jalan menuju roma, tapi nggak banyak juga jalan menuju Caledonia. karena ini pulau yang nggak gede-gede amat, perjalanan kesana agak susah. mesti transit dulu ke Australia, makan waktu sembilan jam. itupun bisa molor gara-gara cuaca yang rusuh. menurut sumber yang gue baca, dibutuhkan biaya sekitar USD 2250, ato sekitar 20jutaan. hmmm...mimpi dulu aaaaahhhhh...

tapi kalopun udah manteb banget kesana, nggak bakalan nyesel dijamin. oke, gue emang belom pernah kesana, tapi dari yang gue baca, kayaknya ini negara lumayan laaah buat refreshing, ato bulan madu, ato yang butuh suasana baru...

Ouvea, garis pantainya sepanjang 25 km & berpasir putih

SAINT JOSEPH'S BAY -- ISLE OF PINE

yang bisa kita lakuin disana yaaa...emang rata-rata olahraga air sih, maklum aja negara kepulauan gituuuu...

misalnya mau snorkling ato diving, tempat yang direkomendasiin...

Îlot Canard yang ada di bagian Anse Vata Beach, tempatnya cocok buat yang masih pemula

ato mau sekedar tanning+doing nothing, mungkin Oro Beach cocok buat tempat ngaso...


banyak tempat-tempat bagus lainnya yang bisa dikunjungin di Caledonia...

TURTLE BAY -- PIERCED ROCK

atau yang mau liat budaya lokal...

ini rumah khasnya penduduk asli sana...

dan ini ibu-ibu asli sana...

buat pecinta burung, ada satu spesies asli dari Caledonia yang pasti bikin penasaran dan puas banget kalo ketemu...namanya burung Kagu...


ato bagi pecinta bangunan-bangunan gede yang unik, mungkin ini jawabannya...

Amedee Lighthouse, ditetapkan sebagai mercusuar dari metal tertinggi di dunia

dan yang mungkin mau unyu dikit sama pacarnya, sewa helikopter di Caledonia & terbang di atas ini...

the Coeur de Voh, dijamin bikin pacar Anda klepek-klepek...

banyak hal menarik lainnya yang bisa kita temuin di New Caledonia. mungkin suatu hari nanti gue bisa kesana...mungkin...

CELTIC WOMAN

this is the real angelic voice...





they called CELTIC WOMAN. their former members were Chloe, Orla, Meav, Hayley, and Mairead. i don't know about now...but they're good for sure...

RPG part II, KINGDOM HEARTS SERIES

(warning! contains MAJOR spoiler)

oke, siapa yang nggak tau game di atas???
Kingdom Hearts series...
yeeeep, the only game which could touch my deepest heart hahahahaha. lakulajak, hm?

ceritanya standar sebenernya. SORA, a boy who transform into hero by an accident. well...not 'too' accident by the way. a violent storm hits his homeland and makes him separated from his two closest friends, Kairi and Riku.

in the same time, the Disney Castle is in chaos because their king is missing. yeeeep, King Mickey. and the court wizard, Donald, and the captain, Goofy, set out to find him. in their travel to find their king, Donald and Goofy meet Sora. and they become friend and work together to find their precious friends.

on their travels, they are told of omnious creatures called Heartless - beings without hearts (isn't it obvious, duh!) derived from unknown dimension. the Disney villains manipulates them to help them gather the Seven Princesses of Heart -- Kairi, Alice, Cinderella, Belle, Jasmine, Snow White, and Aurora -- who are needed to open the final door of the darkness. and the three of them join forces to help the Disney Heroes from the Heartless and hope they will find their friends in one of the world which they visit.

and surprisingly (or not), Sora is the Keyblade wielder, the only weapon which can destroy the Heartless. i love the design of the blade...

this is Sora's first blade. in every world, he's given the other keyblade which represented the world..

such as the Circle of Life is given in the land of Lion King. well...we all know that Circle of Life is theme song of Disney Classics "The Lion King", right? and the Hidden Dragon is given in the land of Mulan.

this game has many series. and the sequence is :

1. Kingdom Heart: Birth by Sleep --> is the latest release of the series. but it is the prequel of this series. long before Sora was chosen to be the Keyblade Master, the three youth - Terra, Van, and Aqua - find themselves in a crisis which took them to the world far beyond their own, just as another Keyblade Master, Xehanort, goes missing. what makes me confused is...why Van appearance is very...very...similar to Roxas? well...i'm not playing this game yet, but i will. sooo...if i already find out why, i'll post it immediately hahaha.

2. Kingdom Hearts --> is the first journey of our hero, SORA.



3. Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories --> after Sora closed and locked the door of darkness, even though he knows that his best friend, Riku and the King are on the other side, in order to save all worlds. believing the King's words that there will always be a door of the light, he, Donald, and Goofy set out the new journey. they meet a mysterious man who wears the black coat and invites them to the Castle Oblivion. he offers something to the three of them but they must lose something. (spoiler: every steps that they take in the castle is erasing their memories. Namine, a girl who stayed in the castle and trapped by Organization XIII, manipulating Sora's memory. she erases Kairi from his memory and replaced by her. but in the end, Sora remember his own memory and pursue Namine to bring back his memories. then, she puts the three of them asleep to regain their memories from the effect of the Castle Oblivion).



4. Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days --> is occuring when Sora and the others trapped in Castle Oblivion. when Sora turned into heartless in order to save Kairi (in first Kingdom Hearts series), his Nobody - Roxas- joins the organization XIII. unlike the other Nobody, Roxas has no memories of his past. he befriends with the organization's fourteenth member, Xion...well...i'm not playing this series soooo...uhm...i don't know much...but i think this game will complete the missing link of Sora, Roxas, the Organization, well...the missing link of everything...maybe.



5. Kingdom Hearts II --> begins one year after the events of Kingdom Hearts. Sora, Donald, and Goofy have been asleep for the past year to regain their lost memories. Sora travels to many Disney-themed worlds, old and new, and resolves the troubles caused by Organization XIII, the Heartless, Maleficent and Pete, and local villains. Meanwhile, Kairi is kidnapped by Axel, one of Organization XIII member. During a visit to Hollow Bastion, they again meet King Mickey, who reveals the true nature of Ansem, the antagonist of Kingdom Hearts. The Ansem whom Sora defeated was actually the Heartless of Xehanort, a student of Ansem the Wise, and that the leader of the Organization is Xehanort's Nobody, Xemnas. the Organization's plan is to gather the Heartless which destroyed by Sora to awaken the Kingdom Hearts. and then Sora, Donald, and Goofy revisit the worlds and try to save the worlds once again from chaos. in this game, Sora meets his Nobody - Roxas - and fight with him. (spoiler: but in the end, they become one. aaahhhh...i can't stop talking! and in the Castle that Never Was, Sora and Riku beat Xemnas and reunited with Kairi in their homeland. and the hidden event is...in the end of the game, Sora, Riku, and Kairi receive a letter from King Mickey which convince the gamers that Kingdom Hearts III will release soon).


i really love Sora. he's brave and innocent. many people said that the building of Sora's character is plain and he's not as interesting as Roxas and Riku. but i love him, he's not complicated like Roxas and Riku, that's why i love him. and nobody can hate him. the only thing that makes everybody hate him is...he's so un-hate-able hahahahaha.

oh, and i love the friendship between Sora, Donald, and Goofy. the innocent Sora, grumpy Donald Duck, and loving Goofy, they're really sweet. especially in the end of Kingdom Hearts 2. aaaawwww...they have a connection that no one can barge in, even though it's Riku or Kairi, or even the King!

this is the theme song of the series called "Dearly Beloved". beautiful indeed...

and do you know that the Organization XIII member's name is the anagram of their original body's name with add the 'X', such as ROXAS is the anagram of SORA with 'X' in the middle. and XEMNAS is the anagram of ANSEM, or AXEL is the anagram of LEA (his real name revealed in Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep).

COURAGE

someone said to me that nothing special with courage, it's just something that everyone has.

definition : courage is ability to confront fear, pain, risk/danger, uncertainty, and intimidation

courage is derived from love and that explains "courage, with audacity, will die. one of courage, but gentle, spares death. from these two kinds of courage arise harm and benefit"

courage is broken down to many things. bravery, honesty, perseverance, and zest.

courage is one of ten characteristics (lakshana) of dharma in the Hindu Manusmurti

1. Courage (shauriya) and Patience (dhairya)
   
2. forgiveness (kshama)
3. tolerance (dama)
4. honesty (asthaya)
5. physical restraint (indriya nigraha)
6. cleanliness (shouchya)
7. perceptiveness (dhi)
8. knowledge (vidhya)
9. truthfulness (satya)
10. control of anger (akrodh)

having spirit and giving spirit means courage. but facing your own weakness and fear is not the only way to gain spirit, but it's the quickest way, i think. William Walker Atkinson said: "Remember, the only thing to fear is Fear, and - well, don't even fear Fear, for he's a cowardly chap at the best, who will run if you show a brave front". and when you face your fear already, you'll realize that there was nothing to be scared of.

having weakness doesn't mean we have no courage at all. but having weakness and trying to avoid it is the biggest mistake. we should try to understand our fear and weakness is nothing more than our creation. it becomes worse because we belief about it.

and find our purpose to live.

but courage is not all about ourself. it's about the others too. giving encourage and hope to someone is one way to build a courage and faith in our self. have you ever sat across the table from your friend or family member and wondered what you could say to encourage them to get through a difficult time in their life? it feels awful when you couldn't say anything. i will feel helpless and no use.

“The finest gift you can give anyone is encouragement. Yet, almost no one gets the encouragement they need to grow to their full potential. If everyone received the encouragement they need to grow, the genius in most everyone would blossom and the world would produce abundance beyond the wildest dreams. We would have more than one Einstein, Edison, Schweitzer, Mother Theresa, Dr. Salk and other great minds in a century.”—Sidney Madwed

SCANDAL

i'm not a big fan of J-Pop or J-Rock or something like that. but this band is really UH-MAZING! GIRLS POWER RULES!!!




these girls know how to rock out!

yah, yah, yah! hello scandal!

lead vocal, say hello to HARUNA ONO

she's the oldest in the band, so the other member called her 'senpai'. cute and very lady-looking :)

and on the bass, there's TOMOMI OGAWA

i think she's the most energetic member in this band. i love her high voice. it fits with Haruna's lower voice very well

and on the lead guitar, here's MAMI SASAZAKI

the guitar goddess. her face seems so calm on stage but not with her fingers.

and on the drum, there's RINA SUZUKI

i feel bad with Rina. because i think she's the most adorable member, but she must stay behind those drums hahahaha :)

they know how to look beautiful and yet untouchable (in a good way of course).

BASS

i always love bassist

not the drummer or the guitarist or the vocalist, i just love bass

John Deacon ~ QUEEN

ato yang ini? cantik-cantik sangar? Tomomi Ogawa ~ SCANDAL

he's legend. Flea ~ RHCP

ato mau yang lokal? Chua ~ KOTAK

and this is not DUMBLEDORE or GANDALF. he's Lee Sklar. i've known him as Phil Collins's bassist in his concert. and he's the one who makes me realize that bass is oh-so COOL.

do i play bass?
hmm, a little

i love Flea's jam session with Chad Smith. enjoy :)




well... i'll never play something like this until i die. hahahahahaha. this is too much, WAY TOO MUCH.

Charice, Who Doesn't Know Her Anyway...

i just found this girl on youtube and she's TERRIFIC!

her voice just perfect. and she has cute face, i think.

and this song is catchy for sure. thanks again to my friend, they've pushed me to hear this song while recess time. and it's echoing in my head again and again and again and again...and again. like a pyramid (?)



voice of an angel, right?

she is the first Asian artist in history to land in the Top 10 of the Billboard 200 album chart. and Oprah told that she's the most talented girl in the world. unyuuu...i wanna be her soooo bad. she was born in Philippines and guess what, she's just one year older than me.

how does it feel to be known all over the world in 18?

does it feel good?

and now, she's playing in very famous tv show, GLEE.
aaaaahhhhh envy so much.

Hey, Soul Sister

Hey, hey, hey

Your lipstick stains on the front lobe of my left side brains
I knew I wouldn't forget you, and so I went and let you blow my mind

Your sweet moon beam, the smell of you in every single dream I dream
I knew when we collided, you're the one I have decided who's one of my kind

Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do..
Tonight
Hey, hey,hey

Just in time, I'm so glad you have a one-track mind like me
You gave my life direction, a game show love connection, we can't deny
I'm so obsessed, my heart is bound to beat right out my untrimmed chest
I believe in you, like a virgin, you're Madonna, and I'm always gonna wanna blow your mind

Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight

The way you can cut a rug, watching you's the only drug I need
You're so gangsta, I'm so thug, you're the only one I'm dreaming of
You see, I can be myself now finally, in fact there's nothing I can't be
I want the world to see you be with me

Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do tonight,
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight
Hey, hey,hey

Hey, hey,hey

Tonight




~sweet song for sure :)

Oh It's Love

Oh, it is love
From the first time I set my eyes upon yours
Thinking oh, is it love?

Oh dear
It's been hardly a moment
And you are already missed
There is still a bit of your skin
That I've yet to have kissed
Oh say please do not go
But you know, oh, you know that I must
Oh say I love you so
But you know, oh, you know you can trust
We'll be holding hands once again
All our broken plans I will mend
I will hold you tight so you know
It is love from the first
Time I pressed my hand into yours
Thinking oh is it love?

Oh, dear, it's been hardly three days
And I'm longing to feel your embrace.
There are several days
Until I can see your sweet face.
Oh say, wouldn't you like to be older and married with me
Oh say, wouldn't it be nice to know right now that we'll be
Someday holding hands in the end
All our broken plans will have been
I will kiss you soft so you know
It is love from the first
Time I pressed my lips against yours
Thinking oh is it love?

Your heart may long for love that is more near
So when I'm gone these words will be here
To ease every fear
And dry up every tear
And make it very clear
I kiss you and I know
It is love from the first
Time I pressed my lips against yours
Thinking oh is it love?

Oh it is love from the first
Time I pressed my lips against yours
Thinking oh is it love?

I kiss you and I know
It is love from the first
Time I pressed my lips onto yours
Thinking oh is it love?

~Hellogoodbye

Celebrating Our Life

this a perfect song to start your day...





jaman sekarang, jarang lagu yang 'merayakan kehidupan'. kebanyakan lagu menye-menye yang bikin orang pengen bunuh diri begitu dengernya. tapi MOCCA punya cara yang beda buat nyampein musik mereka. walopun orang Indonesia nggak awam dengan genre musik yang mereka bawa, tapi siapa yang nggak ngerasa semangat begitu denger lagu ini? apalagi liriknya yang, walopun berbahasa inggris, gampang dimengerti dan maknanya manis, unyu gitu deeeeh.

time to wake up
let me give you another fantasy
raise your hands up and turn around now here we are
where we were meant to be free

now follow me
keep it up on the double, 1,2,3
drop that needle and now listen to the beat
let's hear it out from your feet

deep within, I can see, wanna share,
your feelings don't forget I've got an easy way to
cheer you up, cuddle up, take you to the stars!

open the window and feeling the wind flow
we're starting to feel the breeze in our heels
a tap on the floor no more tears anymore
it's easy, just like ABC

it's been a while
have you been waiting for me all this time
after the day we ever met I must admit
I feel like lemon and lime

deep within, I can see, wanna share,
your feelings don't forget I've got an easy way to
cheer you up, cuddle up, take you to the stars!

open the window and feeling the wind flow
we're starting to feel the breeze in our heels
a tap on the floor no more tears anymore
it's easy, just like ABC

it's so easy
easy as A-B-C and 1-2-3
feel the breeze and come on dancing to the beat
together we will ever be- ooh ooh ooh

Highly Strung

keren yaaaa, i wish i could play something like that...

It's Not That Hard (jakarta jam 10 part 2)

semua dimulai dari ajakan setan temen gue "sas, follow twitternya om Adrie dong!"

gue ngerutin jidat. "ngapain sih? mending dia mau follow gue..." (sok jual mahal ceritanya)

temen gue cuma ketawa dan nggak ngasih alasan yang jelas kenapa gue mesti follow twitter-nya Adrie Subono.

daaaaaaaaaaan....hari berlanjut, gue udah lupa sama ajakan setan temen gue itu.

dan lalalalalala...

sampelah pada hari di mana gue searching tentang Forever the Sickest Kids di google, soalnya ada lagu baru katanya. tiba-tiba gue nemuin kata : FTSK...blablabla...Indonesia...blablabla...

what the~?

FTSK-Indonesia?

DATEEEEEEEEEEENG.....!!!!!!!!!!

begitu teriak gue. adek gue langsung loncat denger jeritan gue, kayak ayam digantung katanya, emang dia udah pernah denger ayam digantung apa? ckck.

adek gue : apa sih yang dateng?
gue : FTSK!
adek gue : heh? ef-te-es-ka?
gua : he-eh
adek gue : dikirain apaan..

gua nggak peduli sama kata-kata sarkatis adek gue, yang penting..

FTSK dateng ke Indonesiaaaaaaaaaaa....!!!

yaaaaay...

dan gue searching lagiiiii...akhirnya ketemu info kalo mereka bakal dateng dengan promotornya Java Musikindo.

saat itu juga, gue langsung follow twitter-nya om Adrie Subono. hahahahahha

habis itu gue sibuk bujuk semua orang
"yaaaah...nonton jakarta jam yaaaaa...yaaaaahhhh...yayayaya?"
"buuuuu...nonton jakarta jam yaaaa...nonton ya bu, nonton ya, yayayayaya?"
akhirnya nyokap bokap gue gerah sama rongrongan gue dan ngeiyain

yaaaay



this gonna be fun... begitu pikir gue waktu itu..

JAKARTA JAM 2010 part 1

I LOVE FOREVER THE SICKEST KIDS SOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!

begitu respon pertama gue habis nonton JAKARTA JAM 2010.

sadiiiiiiiiiiissssssssssssssssss........

gue pernah nge-post kalo gue suka banget sama FTSK. tapi gue nggak nyangka bakal sekeren itu live performance-nya. bilang gue lakulajak, overreacted, ato apapun deh, tapi gue serius, live performance FTSK keren bangeeeeet.

sayangnya, karena gue emang bego kalo panik, gua nggak bisa foto-foto, soalnya kamera ada di dalem tas dan tasnya gue titipin *disambit pake linggis sama adek gue*. dan begitu gue nyoba motret pake kamera handphone, begini deh hasilnya...

oke, kalo nggak jelas (emang nggak jelas saaaas), yang kiri megang gitar itu Caleb Turman (ginger booooy!!!)

gue dapet second row. dewa banget nggak siiiiih??? nggak percuma gue nyampe jam 4 sore, padahal konsernya baru mulai jam setengah lapan. kalo gue dateng mepet-mepet, mau lebih ancur lagi gambar-gambar gue? hahahahahaha.

naaaaah...yang ini lebih nggak jelas lagi hahaha. ini Austin Bello, si bassist. manusia autis kalo gue bilang. nggak bisa diem banget, tapi itulah yang bikin FTSK unik :)

yang bikin gue makin kesel, gue nggak dapet fotonya Marc gara-gara dia di ujung banget dan nggak pindah ke tengah. aaaaahhhhh... f-bomb! gue dapet fotonya Kent, tapi nggak jelas (BANGET), jadi mending nggak gue post daripada bikin mata makin sakit ngeliatnya hahahahaha.

yang bikin gue kaget, FTSK jalan-jalan ke festival pas semua orang lagi ngantri di gate 2. gue langsung teriak-teriak nggak jelas
"Austiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin...................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
dan yeeeeep, gue berhasil foto sama Austin. tapi fotonya ada di kamera digital adek kelas gue. jadiiiiiiii...yang mau liat 'keakraban' gue sama Austin (huek), tunggu yaaaaaa hahahahahaha.
gua juga dapet fotonya J. Cook sama Caleb Turman, tapi nggak jelas banget...

sialan banget nggak sih mas-mas baju putihnya? pas gue mau dapet spot bagus moto si J. Cook, eh dia lenggang kangkung di depan gue. SH*T!

yang ini lebih ngeselin lagi...

tau ini foto siapa? enggak? wajar kok. gue yang moto aja ngerutin kening pas ngeliat ini foto. ini siapa yaaaa? begitu pikir gue. pas gue ngeliat rambutnya. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh, GINGER BOOOOY!!!!>

FTSK berhasil bawa emosi penonton langsung nanjak dengan lagu pertamanya MY WORST NIGHTMARE yang dibawain jam setengah lapan pas.
sadiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisssssssssssssssssss..........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your Love Is My Drug

azz...

ke$ha's voice has been echoing again and again in my empty head aaaarrrrgggghh

your love, your love, your love, is my drug...lalalalala

see? i've said those words for 3 hours already! i'm going crazy if this keep happening to me. crap, ke$ha, your voice is not my drug but it's addicting like hell.

Maybe I need some rehab,
Or maybe just need some sleep
I've got a sick obsession,
I'm seeing it in my dreams

I'm looking down every alley,
I'm making those desperate calls
Im staying up all night hoping,
Hit my head against the walls

What you've got boy is hard to find
Think about it all about it all the time
I'm all strung up my heart is fried
I just cant get you off my mind

Because your love, your love, your love, is my drug
Your love your love your love
I said your love, your love, your love, is my drug
Your love your love your love

Won't listen to any advice, mamma's telling me to think twice
But left to my own devices i'm addicted its a crisis!

My friends think I've gone crazy, my judgment is getting kinda hazy
My status is gonna be affected if I keep it up like a love sick crackhead

azz...

it's because of my friends. they pushed me to keep listening this song while recess time. i don't like ke$ha that much, but this song is pretty catchy for real...

speaking of love...
azz...
i wanna be in love someday...maybe not now...but someday i will find some guy who has something 'hard to find'. who has a friendly smile, gentle eyes, and when he glance at me, i'll melt like a popsicle beneath the California's sun hahahahahahahaha. what a dreamy dream...

aaaaahhhhhh

and quote of the day "your love, your love, your love, is my drug..."

Keong Racun

i've heard some stuff called 'Keong Racun'
what the ~~???

at first, i thought it was a poisonous snails which keep killing people. and my first reaction is like "oh my God, do i have to move to other place just because this silly pandemic???"

and this is my friend's reaction : "Keong Racun? i like them both"

me : "whaaaaaat ~~??"

and he laughed until his tears burst out from his eyes. then he told me to open youtube and i found this...



azz...

i felt like an idiot..

this song called 'Keong Racun'

hmm... and this is the silly pandemic *sigh plus blushing*
am i the only one who react like that when someone say "Keong Racun" for the first time?

True Colors

You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged
Oh I realize
It's hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness, inside you
Can make you feel so small

But I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow

Show me a smile then,
Don't be unhappy, can't remember
When I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I'll be there

And I'll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow

[intru part]

So sad eyes
Discouraged now
Realize

When this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
You call me up
Because you know I'll be there

And I'll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors, true colors

Cos there's a shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors, true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Beautiful, like a rainbow

yeeep, this is true colors by phil collins.
gue baru selesei ngubek-ngubek yutup dan nemu ini video. nggak tau kenapa, tiap dia nyanyi, yang gue inget pasti film tarzan. hahahaha, nggak kreatif sekali diriku ini, ckck. tapi gue suka sama lagu ini, lagu yang aslinya dinyanyiin sama Cyndi Lauper. Glee Cast juga pernah nyanyiin lagu ini pas episode Hairography.

liriknya bagus. intinya yaaa...jangan pernah malu buat nunjukin siapa diri kita sendiri. jangan pernah malu sekalipun menurut kita, diri kita nggak seterang orang lain, tapi saat kita berani bilang 'mau gimanapun juga, inilah gue', kita udah bersinar lebih terang dari yang kita kira.

and quote of the day "be proud of yourself"

Members of FTSK

ini band yang gue omongin di bawah, yeeep. Forever the Sickest Kids. hmm, artinya? forever=selamanya, the sickest kids=anak-anak yang sakit berat. jadi? ...whatever, pokoknya ini band keren lah.

discography-nya? hmm, album pertamanya Underdog Alma Mater. single dari ntu album ada dua, Whoa Oh! sama She's Lady. dua-duanya cool...banget. music video-nya juga keren.
sekarang mereka lagi garap album mereka yang dibagi jadi tiga. EP pertamanya The Weekend : Friday, single-nya juga dua, What Do You Want From Me sama She Likes (Bittersweet Love). nanti dilanjutin sama EP kedua & ketiganya, The Weekend : Saturday + The Weekend : Sunday. cool, huh?
yang gue liat dari account youtube-nya sih kayaknya mereka orang yang humble, down to earth gitu deh. gaya manggungnya juga nggak neko-neko tapi keren. lumayanlah buat band yang tadinya 'underground band' (walopun sekarang udah label).

personelnya ada enam :

JONATHAN COOK, lead singer


AUSTIN BELLO, bass + vocal


CALEB TURMAN, guitar + vocal


KYLE BURNS, drum


KENT GARRISON, keyboard


MARC STEWART, guitar

Forever the Sickest Kids

this is FTSK, everyone!!! yeeep, FOREVER THE SICKEST KIDS!
band beraliran motown yang akhirnya masuk label juga ckck. di sini emang belom nge-boom banget sih, tapi cool. gue yakin suatu saat mereka pasti bakalan famous di sini.
