i present to you, fuukk-it!


Guys, im leaving to Phuket!


So this is something for all of you guys. I wrote a song in record time! And this is the 1st attempt of recording so, hehe, i know my voice cracked and my chords slipped a bit, but hey? I'm going to Phuket!



Story Behind It


All the various events that is happening around Cyberia these days, including a pervert who is groping people in the A1 or C1 block elevators - ladies, beware - and also a recent event in which i got hit by a womanizer - screw you! - and of course, about my excitement of going to phuket! Whoo hoo!

I didn't have time to upload it at mixPod, so go to this link to check out the song!


Fuukk-it! [Phuket]


If you had a bad day and things are getting worse, well just Phuket!

If the womanizer's hitting on ya then changes his mind, well just Phuket!

If your work is overload, you don't know what to do, well just Phuket!

If these pervert's groping you in the C1 elevator well just... kick him in the balls.

Chorus:
Coz...
Midterm break is on the horizon now
There's nothing to bring you down
And you'll know I'll be happy
Coz I'll be in Phuket, Thailand...

I'll be in Phuket, Thailand...


Okay guys, I hope you liked it! And comment yeah?? Yeaahh?? Whoohoo!

Channel [V]'s Battle of the Pop!

Calling all Indonesians and Nidji fans!

Come and join channel [V]'s Battle of the Pop and vote for your favorite artists! I chose Nidji, coz I've been a fan since they came out - one of the original CD's that I bought, and I only buy a few ya'll.

Its a Battle between Asia and America folks!

So lets help Nidji rise up and conquer this battle by logging in to this link. Register as a member, then cast your vote.

Nidji is now up against One Republic - !!!! - and has 70 more votes than them. C'mon guys, lets support Nidji, yeah!!

Although my judgement was a bit clouded when I saw my dream hubby, Mr. AZ, on the list too, but I managed to click vote for Nidji.

Okay, I guess I'm a bit biased, but heeeyyy, Indonesia ROCKS!!

This is the video that is featured in the battle. I don't really like the video. I think its corny and the visual effects are just... I dunno. I like Agnes Monica's videos better. But hey, I guess they're on a budget. But love the song tho!

My dream of traveling around the world is in the making!



the first time in a long time

I watch these guys dancing, laughing, smiling... in pairs. A number that describes them as lovers. In the middle of a house filled with couples, I am there, minus a better half of me that I haven't met yet.

My mind wanders.

PMS is making me mellow. Boy, do I know how hard it is for me to fall. And then its taking me more than a year to get over it all. God made my heart small, but it can fit a million feelings with constant feedback and echo. Remembering how it feels, although I can't remember a face, or the sound of a voice. Just the feeling, but I remember it well. Gosh, it feels like a million years ago.

Love is overrated, but I have over-rated it. And its making me set my standards high, so I guess I'm not that easy to get by.

Which makes me unapproachable. I guess. Does it? People may know me, but they don't know whats going on inside my heart. Do you?Or are you just making wild guesses that aren't even close?

Where is that place I'm missing? I'm so comfortable where I am now, I'm afraid I don't want it to change. Where is that place I'm missing? Somewhere I want to call home. Somewhere I haven't been in a long time.

And then I'm charmed. Tall, dark, but not so handsome. From afar. Then nearby. As you open your mouth to speak, I begin to smile.

What an ordinary voice, but I seem to remember it well.

Infatuation? Hmm, maybe. Most probably.

A chat, an exchange of smile, a laugh, a secret. It was nothing, until I had a dream about it.

And then I can't stop thinking about it.

I skipped a heartbeat. I'm choking as I breathe.

I can feel it. A new story is about to begin.

And then I start to daydream about it...

...wait, I don't even know your name.




I snap back to reality, then looked at the couples surrounding me.

I guess for now, I'll just dance and laugh and smile along with them.

regarding no smoking day

Did you guys know that last Monday it was "No Smoking Day"? That's why MMU made it a public holiday, coz MMU doesn't support smokers! No, I'm kidding, last Monday was a holiday because it was Maulid Nabi, had nothing to do with No Smoking Day.

But smoking has been an issue for so many years. Many people start to realize the disadvantages of smoking, while the younger generation are getting more exposed to it.

The smokers say that smoking is good for monitoring your health, coz if the doctor forbids you to smoke, that means you're not healthy, but if you're huffing and puffing away, it means you're fit as a horse. Hehehe, lame excuse.

The non-smokers say that they are victims of secondhand smoking - and its true! - and they are trying to get all these smokers to quit.

But smoking creates a big industry. From the cigarrette factories, to R&D labs who study lung cancer and the cancerous chemicals that are found in cigarrettes, from the people who produces nikotin patches to special toothpaste for smokers, everyone will be affected if smoking was banned!

But even without the smokers, the world is polluted enough, not to metion the contribution of cigarrette butts to the pile of imbiodegradable - is that the right spelling? - trash. The streets are easily littered by those irresponsable smokers who throw away their cigarrette butts ANYWHERE!! Darn those litterers.

So, smoking, there is still a HUGE argument of whether it should be banned or not. But, I hope those non-smokers get to say, "Yo! It's No Smoking Day!" to those smokers on last Monday. What do you guys think about smoking?

And on this topic, I would like to contribute one of my own original songs about smoking, and smokers in particular.



Story Behind It

This song was written not so long ago, on the 19th of September 2008. This was my dark ages, when I was 6 kg lighter than now - I know, I'm FAT now, but I'm happier, hhahahaa - and when I was half-depressed. And playing around with some chords, I remembered how a friend of mine once said that, "My girlfriend is my cigarette. I'm devoted to it, and I'll be faithful to it. And it will always be there when I need it."

Uh, talk about addiction, but what he said ringed in my ear, and then I wrote a song... about devotion to a cigarrette. All those smokers out there, do you feel me???

Oh, and it's in Indonesian, so pardon me to those who don't understand it! Enjoy. Leave your comments!

Anthem Perokok

Walau telah kucoba, meninggalkan dirimu
Tapi selalu aku, kembali padamu
Ingin kubercerai darimu, tapi kuterberai tanpamu
Bila terpisah ku akan mencari, jalan tuk bersamamu lagi

Chorus:
Perlahan kau membunuhku
Perlahan kau musnahkanku
Tapi kau temani, malam-malam sepi
Berjanji setia walau kau buatku, mati

Rokok putihku

Bersamamu aku menderita
Tapi terpisah aku tersiksa
Kini aku lupa, hidup sebelum kau ada

Pernah setahun ku tanpamu, setiap hari merindukanmu
Kadang kubertahan tanpamu
Seringnya, ku akan s'lalu menginginkan dirimu

Back to Chorus

Well, thats all! I know it's a funny song, but I think those smokers feel me when they listen to this, right folks?

hope

Dreams are possible if you think of it hard enough!

When you stop dreaming, it stops happening, so dream, keep dreaming, and make that dream into reality. When you believe it can happen, a way to it will be paved from the heavens.

But dream realizations need dedication, commitment and hard work. So don't just dream it, but do something about it.

And most importantly, dream realizations need a lot of money. So,

note to self:
Study hard, be a rich accountant, and finance your dreams! Money!!!!!


You are never too old for your dreams.


MY DREAMS:

[as written on my note book at 05.03.09]

  • Write and finish a novel
  • Create and record my songs [nicely, not crappy bathroom recordings]
  • Become a lecturer
  • Give environmental contribution to the Indonesian community
  • Go backpacking around the world

I wrote those dreams without actually knowing how to make it come true, but it seems that God is a better planner than I am. He is paving a road, and I have a duty to finish it.

Hope is on the horizon.

Special thanks to my dear friend, Zul Ramadhani. I know nothing is happening yet, I know my hopes are up. But something is created from nothing, and with you around to help me, I have faith, my friend!! Lets do this!

laughter, the best medicine!

What a day!

I would LOVE to tell you guys about my adventure today, but I'm drowning in my tasks in which the deadline is coming nearer and nearer.

Long story short, I went to class today, then went to KL then got stuck in a stand-still traffic jam, and came home at 9.30. Not so interesting? Wait 'til you hear the details!

Anyway, I'm so tired, but I still need to do a LOT of things, so how do I quickly re-charge??

By watching Moymoy Palaboy!
