Keep on Questioning.. Keep on Living Your Life!!

He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.

I was talking with TEITURRR!!!!!!!!

How many times you've dreamed yourself having conversation with your favorite musician? Me??? millions times! And somehow, I had this opportunity to ask one of my musician heroes; TEITUR, about a petty question.. This is the very short conv. I had on his facebook wall:

Me:
Hi.. except your own song, what is the most played song on your play list right now? ♥

Teitur:
Ars Nova, a very good choir.

Me:
Nice. I'm not familiar with that but I was just Googling it. It sounds so peaceful. Thank you for your time answering this. Always love your music ♥

Teitur:
Cool. It's the Danish one.. I think there are several Ars Nova choirs if you google.

Me:
Yeah, I found example of Ars Nova composed by Guillaume de Machaut, performed by Capilla Flamenca from Wikipedia, hahhaha..


Ohh, I'm so happy, even though today I had a bad day since I lost my mobile phone

Smells Like Teen Spirit!!

Having no job is awesome. It gives me a chance to catch up things I've missed with my bff.. And having a lot of free times makes me and my best friend act just like teenagers

Here are some of the evidences. We went cam crazy again.. Rika. Oh,, how lucky I am to have you with me during this hard time

This pose was inspired by one of a model we saw.. Yeah, we dream to be a supermodel!! jajajaja..

BFF!

Yesterday me and Rika just had our hair done in beauty salon. But seemingly, Rika doesn't like her hair as much as I do

Yeah, Rika is having an obsession to be a catalog's girl model, and she has a theory that such model always hold the products they promote like this, hahahha..

This one also Rika's catalog girl's pose

Oh, I LOVE Mr. Pann!!

We called this as KTP pose! Bcz, it's so formal like in our ID card, hahaha..

I don't know what is this, but Rika called this as her duck mouth pose!

This is our MANOHARA pose!

This is also our MANOHARA pose!

Friendship's awesome!!

Yes, you better get shocked to see this, hihihi...

Pernikahan Yang Yaaah

So, I went to this book store a couple days ago with a friend. In this place, I found a book about photography,, well, it was more like a portfolio book. I forgot who was the author but this book was so cool. I love the photographs in this book. And what made this book more interesting is that every picture will be tagged with a short poem. 

This is one of my favorite poem in that book:

Pernikahan Yang Yaaah

Semua ingin pernikahannya istimewa

Banyak yang wah, juga yang yaah

Upacara dan kosmetika

Jadi lebih penting dari keindahan cinta

Cinta tak minta apa-apa

Karna ia sudah istimewa

This poem is so simple, so straightforward and not trying to be pretentious. I love this. I love the idea that this poem is trying to convey. For all my life, I've been dreaming for a simple wedding too that will be only attended by people I know rather than a bunch of strangers who only come by to get free meals and comment uselessly on my wed. Because that is what commonly happening in Indonesia. People in Indonesia hold a very big and generous wedding party mostly only to show off their pride, and so they don't give a damn to a fact that they don't know every person who come. So, if you are a perfect stranger and come to a wedding and tell people that you are a cousin of a cousin, people will believe you, right away!

It's so lame. Well, yeah, considering to that, pernikahan yang yaaah sounds perfectly suit me

GEDUNG SATE: 1 2 3, Poseee!!

I've been living in Bandung like more than seven or eight years, and this is the first time I took pictures in front of the very famous Gedung Sate. Well, I didn't feel anything at all though but blushing when people staring at my poses, lol..

What makes me amazed the most of living in Bandung is how people appreciate their heritage so much. People in Bandung, especially Sundanese people, have special way in preserving their cultural heritage. I'm not talking about physical preservation and stuff, but I'm talking about how Sundanese people living the heritage up in their soul. And I feel very lucky to be a part of that spirit now!

See you when I see you!

Saya baru ingat, beberapa hari yang lalu, teman saya mengadakan acara pesta perpisahan dengan makan-makan di PH. Ada satu hal tentang perpisahan ini yang menarik saya.. Well, sebelum saya melanjutkan, saya akan bercerita perpisahan macam apa ini.

Ini adalah perpisahan seorang teman yang akan pindah keluar kota. Dia dulunya adalah rekan kerja saya dan beberapa teman yang lain, mereka telah saling mengenal selama beberapa tahun, dan saya yang datang belakangan juga telah menjadikan dia salah satu teman terfavorit saya.

Jadi... setelah acara perpisahan yang gila itu, teman saya ini menulis sesuatu di wall group kami di Facebook.. saya sudah lupa persismya bagaimana, tapi.. intinya, kali ini dia tidak ingin mengucapkan "GOODBYE" karena yeah... goodbye memiliki makna yang menyakitkan dan oang2 jarang bisa berjumpa lagi setelah saling mengucapkan goodbyes, So.. long story short, teman saya ini lebih memilih mengatakan "SEE YOU WHEN I SEE YOU"

Nice!

Saya suka ide ini. Saya akan bertemu dengan kalian lagi pada saatnya nanti. Kalimat ini terdengar lebih optimis di telinga saya yang sinikal dan sardonic, :p Well, selamat jalan temanku, semoga kita bisa mendapat apa yang selama ini kita impikan.

Indonesian No. 1 food: BAKSO!!

Hati saya sedang SAKITTT!!

Ya, saya menulis post ini dalam Bahasa Indonesia karena saya tidak ingin ada seseorang yang mengerti soal ini. Hati saya sedang sangat sakit sehingga saya akan menulis soal Bakso. Yeah, bakso! Siapa yang tidak suka bakso??? Semua orang Indonesia suka, apparently!

"Bakso umumnya dibuat dari campuran daging sapi giling dan tepung tapioka, akan tetapi ada juga baso yang terbuat dari daging ayam, ikan, atau udang. Dalam penyajiannya, bakso umumnya disajikan panas-panas dengan kuah kaldu sapi bening, dicampur mi, bihun, taoge, tahu, terkadang telur, ditaburi bawang goreng dan seledri. Bakso sangat populer dan dapat ditemukan di seluruh Indonesia; dari gerobak pedagang kaki lima hingga restoran."(Disadur dengan penuh kesadaran dari Wikipedia / terlalu malas u berpikir :p)

BAKSO BELAKANG MONUMEN Dipati Ukur favorit saya!!!

Bagi saya, jatuh cinta itu seperti makan semangkuk bakso! Awalnya saja yang enak, setelah menghabiskan setengah mangkok, saya akan merasa mual dan jijik.. tapi, saya perlu makan bakso, karena dengan begitu saya masih merasa kalau saya hidup. Yeah, menginginkan sesuatu adalah ciri2 dari jiwa2 yang hidup kan???

Cinta itu seperti bakso, kita tidak akan tahu apa yang ada di dalam bakso itu (yeah, ini versi lain dari kata2 ibu Forest Gump! kalau saja di US ada bakso, pasti dia akan bilang begini alih2 mengandaikan kehidupan dg sekotak coklat :p). Apapun yang kita temukan dalam bakso itu, mau urat kek, mau daging cincang kek, tetap saja kita akan terkejut, hanya saja, masalahnya, apakah kita akan menyukai kejutan itu. Ugh!! Saya TIDAK SUKA isi bakso saya sekarang ini!!!!

Perasaan diacuhkan bercampur dengan keinginan untuk lepas dari seseorang yang datang bersamaan membuat saya ingin meledak sekarang ini. Saya sangat menyukai pria ini, tapiiii.. ada sesuatu dari kami yang membuat hal ini tidak mungkin terjadi. Yeah,, sudahlah, mari kita makan bakso rasa masochist saja kalau begini caranya. Dan dari semua hal yang bisa saya pikirkan, saya hanya bisa mengatakan "saya merindukanmu, tapi tidak juga!!"  :'(
