my number one rule for packing is, if you're going for only a day pack up for two days. If you're going for 2 days pack up of 3 days. and so on.
No one know what will possibly happen right?

SOTD/28042012/ Noah & The Whale - Second Lover

Noah and The Whale - Second Lover 


Oh, and when will our heartbeats fall into line.
And the click-clack of our boot heels beat out the same time
Oh, and when will your hand find itself in mine?
Oh, and when will your hand find itself in mine?

And though I don't know your real name
Your real age, or your shoe size
I will leave this bedroom chair
And this keyboard behind

And I will love you in reality and dreams
And I will love you in reality and dreams

And though it kills me to know
That when we are through
You go to your real lover
Who'll put real kisses on you


Oh well, an "X" is about the best that I can do
Oh well, an "X" is about the best that I can do

And so this lonely, lonely hull
Has no use left for living
After finding her love
In a heart so unpermitting

And I will die and never ever hold your hand
And I will die and never ever hold your hand

But I'll kiss my lips and I'll blow it to you
It'll be the last thing that I ever do
And wherever you go and whatever you do
There's a man underground that will always love you


Oh, wherever you go and whatever you do
There's a man underground that will always love you

Wherever you go and whatever you do
There's a man underground that will always love you

There ain't nothing better than driving alone slowly in the middle of rain while listening to Kings Of Convenience

My Work Space

Okay, so in this post, I want to introduce my new Workspace

My old workspace was:

Very messy, I know. So I used to have a table beside my bed and that's where I did my work, but I realized that I couldn't study that way, Because sometimes when I got bored I would just lay my head on the bed and bam! all my wills to study went out the window. So I changed my workspace into a more 'supporting' one

My new workspace:

Yep! I added a desk and threw away my old table (well not  exactly throwing it away, just moving it out) everything looks more organized right? But the consequence is my small room becomes even smaller. But that's alright. really.

SOTD/20042012/ Queen - Don't Stop Me Now

Queen - Don't Stop Me Now



Tonight I'm gonna have myself a real good time

Where do you see your self in 10 years?

"Where do you see your self in 10 years?"

Ten years from now, that means that I'd be about 27 going on 28.
I wish, I'll have finished my master degree from a good university in foreign country. I will have traveled around the world, I will have tasted the experience of being a backpacker in foreign countries. I will have married with a loving husband. -and possibly living in a small but very comfortable home while saving up money to build a bigger one, my dream home. maybe planning for kids. I will be working in a big company with a good position while earning experience to go further. I will do great and big things.

---------

That's a lot. I know. Some people will probably hit me in the head and say 'Don't dream too much!' I know that not everything goes with the plan. My mother once told me when she was young she had a dream to travel the world. But as she got older more important things came, she needed to be realistic and put aside her dream. I guess that's just how the world is. But  don't want to give up on my dream. It's not  a  dream, it's a plan. I may sound arrogant but I want it so bad, I need to make sure that I will still remember it when those obstacles come. That my wills will be bigger than the problems I have ahead.
Still, I realize at the end of the day everything is decided by Allah SWT, but there's no harm in trying rite?
May all my dreams come true. Amin.

UN IS OVER PEOPLE! IT'S OVER!

"UN IS OVER PEOPLE! IT'S OVER!"


YES, UN (The National Exam) is over. And at some point of these last two days I feel like screaming it down to people's ear. Am I relieved? yes. Am I happy? yes. Am I free? Uh huh no, not really -wait the answer is an absolute NO. Because once this exam done, I must face the SNMPTN. and it's not fun.

Well, back to UN IS OVER.
A big part of me is actually asking, "Is this it?" it's not that I want more of this, it's just I feel like, "is it really over already?" I mean you see those tv dramas, movies, or novels show how graduating from highschool is like the biggest moment in life, they show how crazy and dramatic it is. But me? I feel like 'meh'.
it's not that I don't take it seriously, and it's not that I don't consider it as something special. It is very special indeed, it's just not as big as  thought it would be. Maybe, I just had been expecting too much. 
Okay, what am I saying? it's not like they have announced the graduation yet, that's why please pray for me!

I really have nothing to do tonight, a little part of me keeps screaming "why on earth aren't you studying?" that sounds like a relevant question.  But the bigger part insist that I shall not study tonight. Not when it's just two nights after UN, I deserve some rest, don't I?

What do I do to relieve the stress and 'rest'? Well yesterday right after UN done, I, Dian, and Uli went to Lippo to hunt down Korean DVD (or should I say accompanying Dian hunting down Korean DVD while adding one or two to Dian's list?) Nevertheless it was really fun. And today My brother and I had Sushi Tei! Finally! it's been such a long time. And maybe I'm gonna drown my self in the ocean of tv shows, korean dramas, and novels...

By the way have a good weekend people!

My Sassy Girl

I really love this movie, I think it's one of the best romantic comedy movie I've watched. But which one am I talking about? the Korean or American one?


 The story started when a 25 years old lazy engineering student saved a drunk girl in a train station. The girl wasn't an ordinary girl, she's abusive, pretty, and her mood swing was very bad. Somehow they got very close, their relationship wasn't simple. He saw sadness behind her smiles as she kept a secret hidden inside her memory.

This is the kind of movie that will warm your heart. A light movie that has good amount of humor, tear-jerking scenes, and lovely storyline.

Starred by Cha Tae Hyun and Jun Ji Hyun, this movie can trigger the emotion of the audience, and makes them engaged with the story line. For a Romantic Comedy, it has a pretty long duration (123 minutes) But I guess you won't feel it because this movie is just really good.

Both Taehyun and Jihyun  play out their character and show their emotion really well. And also they have great chemistry. At some point you may forget that it's not real story of real people.

My Favorite scenes! (SPOILER ALERT- if you have intention to watch it, I advice you not to read the text below)


When Gyeon Woo gave her a rose in her school, Their stares were so intense, That was the first thing that made me realized they need to be together

When He told the other guy what to do, and what not to do. I cried. it was almost like he had given up on her, and he wanted to make sure that guy would be good to her. it was terribly heart breaking

When they met at the station, and he hugged her like she was the most precious thing on earth. :')

When she shouted from afar. "I'm Sorry", the way she said it "Mianhe..! Mianhe!" really heartbreaking. 


 When they met again. Imagine the happiness <3



-----------------------



I had watched both of them, and I had watched the American one first. I fell in love with that movie right away, I didn't believe when people say that the original one (Korean) is better. But was I right?
Yesterday I finally watched the Korean version one and boy.. I was wrong indeed....
The American one is good, but not amazing. It will leave you smiling, but it won't make you feel the kind of emotion like the Korean one does. And the acting, the chemistry is better in the Korean version.
Basically the storyline was the same, it's just in the American one it shows a rather more mature relationship.

if you want to see a good light movie, I really recommend this one 4/5

SOTD/042012/ Iron & Wine - My Lady's House

Iron & Wine - My Lady's House


there is light in my lady's house
and there's none but some falling rain
this like a spoken word
she is more than her thousand names

no hands are half as gentle
or firm as they like to be
thank God you see me the way you do
strange as you are to me

it is good in my lady's house
every shape that her body makes
love is a fragile word
in the air on the length we lay

no hands are half as gentle
or firm as they like to be
thank God you see me the way you do
strange as you are to me
----

a very comforting song
I feel really terrible today. Everything seems wrong. I don't really know why. Suddenly I become very fussy, every single thing that's out of place makes me crumble, I cried twice without any significant reason.

Yeaah please wish us to succeed!

the last days of school.

Seven days from now, I'll be having the National Examination. Tadaaatadaaaa.
I feel happy, scared, sad, and in some ways excited. I don't know how to put it. there is so much feeling inside of me. the feeling is almost overwhelming. Okay, some of you may feel like I'm exaggerating thing. it's not really about the National Exam, it's more about these last moment I have in High School. Heck, this week is the last week of having school. Like a real school. You know, I have been having the same routine for twelve freaking years and now it's about to stop. What routine? Well you know waking up in the morning, having a breakfast, wearing uniform, take off to school at about 6:30, and then going home in the afternoon. That had been my life for the last twelve years. And I know it's not like I'm gonna get married after high school. I still have College and people say that I shouldn't take this too seriously. But still, the little things like knowing that there won't be any uniform to wear, or a tablemate, or the permanent classmate make me kinda sad. I start to notice things, like when I eat in canteen I'd suddenly feel like 'maybe it's gonna be one of my last times here', ...and today I just had my last flag ceremony, Nothing was really special, but still that was the LAST ceremony.  And I'm gonna miss my friends for sure, those people make everything easier than how it should be..

But at the other side, I feel rather excited to have a change. to be a 'Mahasiswa'. I can't wait for something new to happen. Although I'm kinda afraid, because honestly socializing and adapting aren't not ones of my strong points.

After National Exam, I'm gonna have SNMPTN, dumdumdumdumdumdum. Hearing its name already makes me feel uneasy. I'm still far away left behind my friends. I need to run to chase them. I guess I'm gonna study hard, and harder. For a better future, for my dream.
