Artwork of The Day : "Infernal"

"Sesuatu" membuat gw teringat akan masa lalu yang sedikit kusam..

Teringat mengenai cinta yang destruktif..

Hal ini membangkitkan semangat untuk membuat lagu baru [again]..

Yah, tema lagu ini tentang yang tadi itu..

"Cinta yang Destruktif"...

This song gonna be a dark one, entitled : INFERNAL..

And this INFERNAL is dedicated to YOU..

Selanjutnya, ide lagu tersebut menggugah hasrat untuk membuat photo manipulation.

Dan jadilah gambar di bawah ini..

Mungkin bisa jadi artwork untuk INFERNAL nanti..

The Song of This Day : Criminal by Britney Spears

Waw, waw, waaw...!!

Gw baru menyadari lirik yang lucu tapi nyata dari lagu keren ini..

Just listen and laugh!

[maksudnya silakan menertawai masa-masa kita menyukai orang yang dianggap oleh orang lain sebagai "sampah"]..

Criminal lyrics

He is a hustler

He's no good at all

He is a loser, he’s a bum, bum, bum, bum

He lies, he bluffs

He's unreliable.

He is a sucker with a gun, gun, gun, gun

I know you told me

I should stay away.

I know you said

He’s just a dog astray.

He is a rebel with a tainted heart

And even I know this a'int smart

But mama im in love with a criminal

And this type of love

Isn't rational, it's physical

Mama please don't cry

I will be alright

All reasons inside

I just cant deny

Love the guy

He is a villain of the devil’s law

He is a killer just for fun, fun, fun, fun

That man's a snitch and unpredictable,

He’s got no conscious

He got none, none, none, none

All I know, should let go, but no

'cause he’s a rebel with a tainted heart

And even I know this ain't smart

But mama im in love with a criminal

And this type of love

Isn't rational, it's physical

Mama please don't cry

I will be alright

All reasons inside

I just cant deny

Love the guy

[Bridge]

And he's got my name

Tatooed on his arm

His lucky charm,

So I guess its okay

He’s with me

And I hear people talk

Trying to make remarks

Keep us apart

But I don't even hear

I don't care

'Cause mama im in love with a criminal

And this type of love

Isn't rational, it's physical

Mama please don't cry

I will be alright

All reasons inside

I just cant deny

Love the guy

Broken Engrams #2

Bersamaan dengan tetesan air mata dan emosi..

Aku memohon maaf, karena tak bisa menjadi kenangan indah kalian..

Maafkan karena aku sendiri memecahkan dan menorehkan cacat pada engram-engram itu..

Maafkan karena aku telah mengambil keputusan..

Tanpa memperhatikan kenangan dan persahabatan..

Meskipun ingin, aku tak bisa merasakan penyesalan..

Semoga kenangan indah selalu abadi, dan masalah akan pudar dalam ingatan..

Dan semoga, keputusanku ini tak akan menodai masa depan..

Milikku dan kalian..

PS : Duh, Eyang Oleth.. Maaf ya, Engkau tidak ada di foto..

Something you should listen : When Your Heart Stops Beating by Plus 44

Hari ini diawali dengan kantuk dan diakhiri dengan kantuk juga..

Namun, akhirnya gw mengalami hari yang menyenangkan juga..

Setelah jantung dipacu dan otak dipecut terus-menerus sejak hari Kamis yang lalu..

Dan hari ini gw mengetahui 1 lagu yang bagus banget, gara-gara dinyanyikan oleh pacar gw saat karaoke tadi.. Melodi dan liriknya nempel erat di kepala dan telinga..

Lagu inilah, yang membuat gw terbang kembali ke masa-masa SMA...

When Your Heart Stops Beating lyrics

Turn it up, I never want to go home

I only want to be part of your breakdown

She got caught by the four on the floor

It picked her up and she'll never get let down

And now I can't stop thinking about it

All you people at the top don't know nothing about it

We don't give a fuck what the price is so just leave us to our own devices

And we'll leave you alone

I'll be there when you heart stops beating

I'll be there when your last breath's taken away

In the dark when there's no one listening

In the times when we both get carried away

When we both get carried away

She says it all without a thought in her head

She says it all and she's pressed up against me

A little something just to take off the edge

A little more and I'll fall off the planet entirely

I'll be there when you heart stops beating

I'll be there when your last breath's taken away

In the dark when there's no one listening

In the times when we both get carried away

When we both get carried away

I'll be there when you heart stops beating

I'll be there when your last breath's taken away

In the dark when there's no one listening

In the times when we both get carried away

When we both get carried away

When we both get carried away

(I'll be there when your heart stops beating)

When we both get carried away

(In the dark when there's no one listening)

When we both get carried away

"Addictive Cinnamon" - a satire for HER

I never thought that i'm..

Her morphine and amphetamine..

Never brave enough to think that i'm..

Her addiction and her imagination..

Her cinnamon and the only notion..

But now i know..

For her, i'm just so damn addictive..

For me, she's so damn counterfeit..

"Epitaphios ~ on the gravestone of my heart"

Epitaphios lyrics - Bahasa Version

Andai kau lihat aku berjuang lupakanmu..

Tambatkan hati pada rantai yang semu..

Gemerlap semua kenangan..

Terus coba kulenyapkan..

Kemilau semua memori..

Kini hanyalah buruknya mimpi..

Biarlah angin tiupkan serpihan cinta yang telah semu..

Bisikkan kesumatku untukmu..

Dendam kelabu..

Pudarlah semua memori kita yang telah penuh debu..

Tangis untuk pusara cintaku..

Andai kau lihat aku di balik rembulan..

Kucoba perbaiki retaknya kenangan..

Semerbak semua harapan..

Terus coba kurelakan..

Indahnya konstelasi..

Hanya akan pilukan hati..

Biarlah angin tiupkan serpihan cinta yang telah semu..

Bisikkan kesumatku untukmu..

Dendam kelabu..

Pudarlah semua memori kita yang telah penuh debu..

Tangis untuk pusara cinta...

Lihatlah aku, mengubur serpih harga diri..

Oh, lupakan semua angan dan indahnya melodi untukmu..

Kurelakan kilau impian dan memori..

Sayonara, malaikatku..

‘Tlah kurelakan dirimu..

Biarlah angin tiupkan serpihan cinta yang telah semu..

Bisikkan kesumatku untukmu..

Dendam kelabu..

Pudarlah semua memori kita yang telah penuh debu..

Tangis untuk pusara cintaku..

Pertama kalinya bikin lagu dalam 2 versi bahasa, ternyata susah-susah gampang prosesnya.

Dan kali ini gw ingin membuat lagu yang sederhana dan mudah untuk dimengerti..

Mudahkah?

Something you should listen : Britney Spears - Hold it Against Me

Hold It Against Me lyrics

Hey over there

Please forgive me

If I’m coming on too strong

Hate to stare

But you’re winning

And they’re playing my favorite song

So come here

A little closer

Wanna whisper in your ear

Make It clear

Little question

Wanna know just how you feel

If I said my heart was beating loud

If we could escape the crowd somehow

If I said I want your body now

Would you hold it against me

Cause you feel like paradise

I need a vacation tonight

So if I said I want your body now

Would you hold it against me

Hey You might think

That I’m crazy

But I you know I’m just your type

I’mma be a little hazy

But you just cannot deny

There’s a spark in between us

When we’re dancing on the floor

I want more

Wanna see It

So I’m asking you tonight

If I said my heart was beating loud

If we could escape the crowd somehow

If I said I want your body now

Would you hold it against me

Cause you feel like paradise

I need a vacation tonight

So if I said I want your body now

Would you hold it against me

If I said I want your body

Would It Hold It Against Me?

Gimme something good

Don't wanna wait I want It now (na-na-now)

Pop It like a hood

And show me how you work It out

(alright)

If I said my heart was beating loud

If I said I want your body now

Would you hold it against me

If I said my heart was beating loud

If we could escape the crowd somehow

If I said I want your body now

Would you hold it against me

Cause you feel like paradise

I need a vacation tonight

So if I said I want your body now

Would you hold it against me

Something you should listen - Possibility by BoA and Daichi Miura

Possibility lyrics translation

Oh why?

Why did we say goodbye?

Every time you smiled I thought that

It was something beautiful and though I thought that

Even though I want to laugh at those easy jokes you made before but I can’t

So each night and day I always felt uneasy

To throw away what we made it seems much too easy

I know that tomorrow, we’ll be better strangers

I want these memories gone yeah

The pendulum that times our love is gone

A last thread of hope that keeps our love in place is gone

Why did it break in half and snap away? Don’t know…

Now I know that you really did love…

You understood we did it ‘cause for us and the time it took to say

All the words I thought of, still I don’t know

Was all of this okay, was it still alright?

Suddenly a possibility…

Yeah

When you give me your hand

I wanna hold your face closer here and

I feel our heat getting forty

I remember the day, the hour we met

This feeling we both had but I felt it changing

Instead you told me secrets, secrets hidden in the blackest parts of your damned heart

Though we had so much more

You walked away when I needed you the most yeah

The pendulum that times our love is gone

A last thread of hope that keeps our love in place is gone

Why did it break in half and snap away? Don’t know…

Now I know that you really did love…

You understood we did it ‘cause for us and the time it took to say

All the words I thought of, still I don’t know

Was all of this okay, was it still alright?

Suddenly a possibility…

You were someone that I couldn’t handle with all my might

Then this misunderstanding that we had wouldn’t have separated us apart

But your words, your habits made it hopeless for me

I want to see it as a postcard scenery scene

I only had one choice and I

Thought that it would make me look strong

I chose for both of us

So become a stronger man that I (Don’t cry, don’t cry) will want to love again

If I told you that I’m nothing without your love

If you’re not the one then I don’t want it no more

The pendulum that times our love is gone

A last thread of hope that keeps our love in place is gone

Why did it break in half and snap away? Don’t know…

Now I know that you really did love…

You understood we did it ‘cause for us and the time it took to say

All the words I thought of, still I don’t know

Was all of this okay, was it still alright?

Suddenly a possibility…

Did you know the next day, I dreamt a dream of you

And it was your birthday

When I woke, I cried so much for you

Baby, for you, this is my gift

Never gonna change my love

Oh why??

Something i should remember - Lesson from Koasisda

[Foto ini diambil oleh KIRA, dengan setting salah satu tempat hang out di Ciwalk-Bandung]

Topi penunggang kuda kesayangan gw, dipakai untuk menutupi wajah gosong sekaligus untuk mencegah terjadinya kegosongan lebih lanjut...

Teman-teman yang sudah lebih dulu menjalani koasisda selalu mengatakan bahwa saat koasisda adalah saat penting untuk mempelajari kehidupan.

Statement itu ada salahnya ada benarnya..

Bagi gw, koasistensi daerah merupakan momen untuk mempelajari :

1. Di suatu waktu, kejujuran bisa mempercepat penyelesaian masalah.

Namun di waktu yang lain, justru bersikap jujur akan memperpanjang masalah.

2. Asal ada kemauan, mudah untuk mempersatukan sekelompok orang.

Mudah juga untuk memecah-belahnya..

Aneh..sungguh..

3. Di masyarakat, sulit sekali untuk mempertahankan pendapat dan keputusan loe.

Kayanya ga boleh punya keputusan sendiri gitu..

Ini juga, aneh betul..

Susah banget kalo mau bersikap sesuai kata hati..

Murmurs, and always murmurs..

Hey, my ex-friend..

I'm just a stupid fat girl in the cruel Earth..

As you said to me..

But, when i'm drowning into lake of hopelessness..

There will be his lovely hand..

To cuddling and makes me strong..

Do you have it too?

Something i should remember - March Celebration

HAII!

Senangnya, sepulang dari koasistensi daerah di Cianjur yang ga ada sinyal HP itu, gw langsung disambut oleh "March Celebration".

Apakah itu?

Keluarga besar gw punya suatu tradisi untuk merayakan ultah individu, ultah pernikahan, wisuda atau segala sesuatu yang patut dirayakan dalam 1 acara besar.

Jadi ada April Celebration, May Celebration, and sooo onn..

Mungkin biar hemat, maksudnya..

Nah, bulan Maret ini sangat spesial bagi gw..

Karena di bulan inilah ada 2 perayaan penting, yaitu ultah bokap & ultah pacar yang berlangsung [bersamaan] pada tanggal 13 Maret!!

Oh, ya.. March Celebration ini juga bersamaan dengan soft opening Rumah Kayu Sentul..

Sodara-sodara gw langsung tak percaya kalo pacar ultahnya sama kaya bokap..

hihhihihi..psstt...

kan biar hemat..

[ga dennkk.. just kiddin'!! ohohoho..]

Okey, berikut ini adalah foto-foto dari March Celebration!!

Just enjoy it!!

Mulut gw langsung ternganga dan ngeces-ngeces waktu kotak Fruit Cheesecake ini dibuka..

Uuuwhh... Nyummyy!!!!!!!

Ini dia orang-orang yang berbahagia di bulan Maret!!

Congratulation!!!

Bokap dan nyokap gw adalah orang yang sangat menyukai ornamen taman..

Bahkan bokap ngotot pengen burung merak, untuk melengkapi keindahan tamannya ini..

Ckckckckck...

Ayam katai-kuu [sebenernya yang beli bokap, siiy]..!!
Gw suka banget ama ayam kataiii!!

Mungkin karena mirip ma gw kali y???

Saya suka makaan..!!
[Alhamdulillah, akhir-akhir ini saya suka masak juga..]

Yang gw pegang ini adalah masakan yang unik banget..

Ini adalah ikan patin yang dimasak dengan bumbu kunyit-jahe-cabe, dan dibakar dengan memasukkan ikannya ke dalam relung bambu besar..

Yang heboh adalah saat berusaha memindahkan ikannya dari dalam bambu ke piring..

Ckckckkck....

Gw selalu heran kalo ada orang yang ga suka nasi goreng..
Di antara semua menu yang disediakan Resto Bakul-Bakul, gw memilih nasi goreng.

Toh bisa dicampur dengan berbagai menu lauk yang nampol-nampol seperti Tahu Raos, Kepiting Soka, Cumi Mentega dan Sapi Lada Hitam..

NyuummmyY!!

Hari Minggu itu, gw basah kuyup keringetan karena menjadi tuan rumah yang baik..

Ini adalah saat gw mencuri kesempatan untuk duduk nyaman sambil bengong nonton berita tentang warga Jepang yang mengantri air bersih..

That's all guyz!

Love, hugs and flame from us!!

Something i should remember - Februari & Maret 2011

Broken Engrams - a poem by myself

Aku berharap dan memohon kepada Tuhan mengenai 1 hal..

Awalnya aku sudah pasrah karena mengira hal tersebut tak dikabulkan..

Namun, ternyata Tuhan mengabulkannya dengan metode yang unik..

Metode yang membuatku menggeleng-gelengkan kepala..

Harusnya aku bahagia dan bersujud syukur..

Tapi anehnya..

Mengapa Tuhan mengabulkan doa di saat aku tak menginginkannya?

Di saat semua hal sudah berbeda..

Di saat engram-engram itu sudah bercela..

Oh, teman..

Sangat menakjubkan, betapa cepatnya perasaan manusia bisa berubah..

Betapa cepatnya sudut pandang kita bisa berubah..

Yep..demikianlah introduksi untuk report perjalanan kita kali ini..

Intinya, kali ini terdapat banyak hal yang berubah di diri dan paradigma gw..

Dan entah mengapa, sepertinya itu mempengaruhi lingkungan di sekeliling gw..

Meskipun demikian, masih banyak engram lain yang ga kalah indah, yang tercipta selama 1 bulan terakhir ini..

Sit down & enjoy it, please!

#1 : Penantian..
[yang dinanti adalah angkutan umum satu-satunya dari Barulimus menuju peradaban manusia].

#2 : WelcomE!!!
[Selamat datang di Taman Bunga Nusantara - Cipanas, Jabar. Ini adalah kali ke-3 gw ke sana].

#3 : Holla, Cutie Bunny!!

#4 : Tendriled Tunnel.

#5 : Beautiful & Bigtiful @ French Garden..

#6 : French Garden Romance.

[Si Bigtiful ga ada..hihihi..].

Something you should listen : The One That Got Away by Katy Perry

Ow, my Gosh..
Ini adalah postingan pertama yang gw tulis setelah sebulan ga bersentuhan dengan internet..

Nyaris mati rasanya..

Hux..

Katy Perry mengatakan, lagu ini dibuat khusus bagi kalian yang penasaran, sedang apa dan ada dimanakah Sang Mantan Pujaan Hati..

Musik dan liriknya benar-benar brilian..

Mungkin bagus kalo dibuat versi rocknya..

The One That Got Away lyrics

Summer after high school when we first met

We make out in your Mustang to Radio head

And on my 18th birthday we got that chain tattoos

Used to steal your parents' liquor and climb to the roof

Talk about our future like we had a clue

Never plan that one day I'd be losing you

And in another life I would be your girl

We keep all our promises, be us against the world

And in other life I would make you stay

So I don't have to say you were the one that got away

The one that got away

I was dreaming you were my Johnny Cash

Never one, we got the other, we made a pact

Sometimes when I miss you, I put those records on, whoa

Someone said you had your tattoo removed

Saw you downtown singing the blues

It's time to face the music, I'm longer your muse

And in another life I would be your girl

We keep all our promises, be us against the world

And in another life, I would make you stay

So I don't have to say you were the one that got away

The one that got away

The one, the one, the one

The one that got away

All these money can't buy me a time machine, no

Can't replace you with a million rings, no

I should've told you what you meant to me, whoa

'Cause now I pay the price

In another life I would be your girl

We keep all our promises, be us against the world

And in another life, I would make you stay

So I don't have to say you were the one that got away

The one that got away

The one, the one, the one, the one

And in another life I would make you stay

So I don't have to say you were the one that got away

The one that got away
