Between Cinta, Rasa, or... Drama

When you don't know if it is right or wrong when you're with him, but you know that you wanna be with him all the time? What is it? Cinta, Rasa, or Drama?

When you're extremely jealous with his boyfriends or girlfriends that he spends much more time with them than with you and even make you imagining the most ridicilous things ever? What is it? Cinta, Rasa, or Drama?
When he seems very ordinary to you, yet his absence can make u down and low? What is it? Cinta, Rasa, or Drama?
When he never actually shake your heart to the core, but you can never put your attention off of your cellphones, expecting his call or text? What is it? Cinta, Rasa, or Drama?

Well, actually I don't know what exactly it is, but probably if I were you, I'd say that it's just a Drama. Why? Because people love making drama in their lives and these situations  are just some of the circumstances that they can use as excuses to make drama of drooling or drowning or such. People become fools when they fall in love simply because they make a drama out of it. Once my friend said that this life is just so simple and I guess so is love. We just need to stop over analyzing or questioning everything we are blessed with. If you have feelings for someone or better yet, you fall in love, then so be it. Admit it, enjoy it, seize it, treasure it! Period! End of story... =)

Conversation of life and love

Once upon a time, there's life and there's love. One day they meet...
Life: why is it that i've never met you before?
Love: well, i don't know actually, because it is not up to me. It is up to the universe, but I guess maybe we meet because it is simply the right time for us to meet

"Tell the world and the world will tell you"

I actually forgot when or where I heard the quote, but somehow when I was listening to the Kings of Convenience album - Declaration of Dependence (have you got it? If you haven't then you should. No, you must! As usual their album is an irresistible peaceful offer to your mind and heart), the quote came again to me and made me realized that I wanted to share some of my 'stories' to the world. That way the world give me other 'stories' in reply... Or at least, that's what I believe.

So, here is my story for today...

Have I told you I am currently studying at college (again) now? Well, let me explain you first a bit about the educational system I'm going through.

When I graduated from high school, I decided to take this diploma program of Financial Accounting at University of Indonesia. In Indonesia, we have this kind of college program, because once we graduate from high school, which is taken for 3 years, we don't get a diploma certificate like other countries in Europe or in America. It is just a high school certificate and for getting the diploma certificate, it usually take 3 years (except me... hehehe. It took me almost 5 years to finish it. Gosh, Accounting was, is, and will always be too much for me!!! Besides, I took also a semester of break. So there you go, I have my reason ^^ ). Then, for this diploma certificate holder like me, in order to get a bachelor degree I have to take another program. It is called Extension Program. I need to take other two and half years for this extension program. Actually, I really hope to finish it in just two years. That way, I don't spend too many years of my age with studying only.

Anyway, so the program has been going on for almost 3 months and then one day, my mom asked me about whether I enjoy it or not. I answered her quickly that I REALLY AM ENJOYING IT. I told her that mostly it is because somehow I end up having this great new friendship with these guys, Mohammad Andika Alfarisi (Dika or Simba, as I always call him) and Adhel Rusd. Of course, there is also Muhammad Iqbal, who has always been there since the very beginning (thank you, dude!). However, her question just made me realized that how short the time I had with them, yet I already felt that I was totally comfort with them. If I may tell you all... We literally go everywhere together. Even Iqbal announced that he opened this faculty called "Fakultas Kehidupan" or in English, "Faculty of Life" and the faculty runs when we all four go out and have fun. We go for karaoke (very often), go to the cinema and watch some movies consequently, hang out at 7 11 for some coffee or hot chocolate (which Dika likes very much because it really can make him high. He doesn't need alcohol or hash or even drugs to make him so. All he need is just a very sweet hot chocolate. We all call it "the chocolate high", like the song from India.Arie), sleep over at Dika's (who live with his grandmother). Well, for summary, we are very comfort with each other and I, myself, think that I am not that easy person to open to new people or community this fast. I'd need some times to observe and explore if I were in the situation, but I guess it doesn't happen to me when it comes to Iqbal, Adhel, and Dika. I really could not have enjoyed the college this much if there hadn't been them around. In fact, I had never really enjoyed college life like this much before.

So there you go boys... I dedicated this entry for you three. Iqbal, my partner in crime and my solid grip (especially when I am not sober, in any kind of way. You know what I mean, right bal? ^^) . Simba, my so-called little brother, who always bring bunch of sweetness that the group needs, especially Iqbal. And the last is... Adhel, my fun "lover" (*wink wink ;-P ), who just re - started his "life" when he met us (So actually, his life stopped going when he still was in the middle school. Fortunately, he met us and now he is already on his way to catch up with the real "life". Well, we kinda help him a bit... hehehe). Thank you guys... Really!

Chocolate High by India.Arie feat. Musiq Soulchild and Heartbreak Warfare by Mr. Mayer

Somehow, I want to listen these songs over and over again. They keep occupying my mind with their lyrics... Oh, I love this world for creating such amazing singers and high quality artists.

Chocolate High 

by India.Arie feat. Musiq Soulchild

Yeah yeah yeah yeahhhh
Ooooh, Ooooh
If we make each other happy, then we just can't lose

I don't mean to be decadent
I might sound like a hedonist
But the simplest way I can put it
You become a habit
The more I consume, the more I gotta have it

Ain't no such thing as too much
If you gave me everything 

It'd never be enough yeah
My black coffee with sugar no 

Cream in the morning

You're my super double caffeine dream yeah

Your precious darkness got me 

So strung out
And lovin' the way that you got me so wide open, my babydoll
Jonesin' and fienin' 

Under my skin
My nerves are screamin' 

When you're not here

See baby I need ya sugar, 

You're so delicious

CHORUS
There is somethin' about your love
That makes me just want to open up
Your flavor is the sweetest thing in life
I'm addicted to your chocolate high
Cause I want you, and I know that you want me
So let's stay close like we supposed to be
And just get high off our own supply
I'm addicted to your chocolate high

I be trippin' in so many ways if I
Go a single day without a taste of your love
The finest cuisine of today's world
Five stars, oh you're so gourmet girl

I crave you, I want you
Every cell in my body needs you
Tasty like Hershey's and Nestle
You're rich like Godiva boy you just so sexy

(Repeat Chorus)

Your flavor is the sweetest thing in life
And I don't ever want to come down
I'm addicted to your chocolate high
Oh yeahhhhhh

(Repeat Chorus Thrice)

Heartbreak Warfare 

by Mr. Mayer

Lightning strikes
Inside, my chest to 

Keep me up at night
Dream of ways
To make you understand my pain

Clouds of sulfur in the air
Bombs are falling everywhere
It's heartbreak warfare
Once you want it to begin,
No one really every wins
In heartbreak warfare

If you want more love,
why don't you say so?
If you want more love,
why don't you say so?

Drop his name
Push it in and 

Twist the knife again
Watch my face
As I pretend to feel no pain

Clouds of sulfur in the air
Bombs are falling everywhere
It's heartbreak warfare
Once you want it to begin,
No one really ever wins
In heartbreak warfare

If you want more love,
why don't you say so?
If you want more love,
why don't you say so?
Just say so...

How come the only way to know how high you get me
is to see how far I fall
God only knows how much I'd love you if you let me
but I can't break free at all.
It's a heartbreak...

I don't care if we don't sleep at all tonight
Let's just fix this whole thing now
I swear to God we're gonna get it right
If you put your weapons down
Red wine and ambien
You're talking shit again, it's heartbreak warfare
Good to know it's all a game
Disappointment has a name, it's heartbreak warfare. 

I love beach

How I love the beach! 

I always have been having this big fondness of beach since I was just a little girl. Every time I am at the beach and see the sea, feel the breeze and the particular smell coming from it, it always give me some sensation of happiness. I once read that people who love the beach rather than the mountain are very cheerful and open. I do so like to think myself as one of those people. hehehe....  Feel even luckier because I live in Indonesia, a country with zillions of beautiful beaches and I got my exchange year in Sardinia, Italy where it has many, many amazing beaches. God must love me very, very much.... ^^

Happy Eid Fitr 1431 H

Well, I surely know that the occasion was over a week ago, but it just give me an obligation to praise the moment, especially for all the moslems around the globe. 

HAPPY EID FITR 1431 H

MINAL AIDIN WAL FAIZIN

MOHON MAAF LAHIR DAN BATIN

Hopefully we learn much from this year's Ramadhan and next year, we can feel this holy month again. 

Passing through the day you'd never expected

Do you know the feeling when something is just right? When you know you have the strong faith in your heart that... something is for you? Have you ever been there? Have you...? Just can't help but wonder, is it only me or... is it just the world?

Falling in love!

When the time moved and the date changed to the new year 2010, I just realized that I fell for 2009. I am in love with the year in which sometimes I was put so high yet so down on other times. Oh, why it always happen the same when you don't have it anymore... you just want it back? I do truly fall for the year 2009... and all I can do now is just hoping that 2010 will treat me as well as 2009. As attracting as it was to me...
