Old and Wise

As far as my eyes can see

There are shadows approaching me

And to those i left behind

I wanted you to know

You've always shared my deepest thoughts

You follow where i go

And oh when i'm old and wise

Bitter words mean little to me

Autumn winds will blow right through me

And someday in the mist of time

When they asked me if i knew you

I'd smile and say you were a friend of mine

And the sadness would be lifted from my eyes

Oh when i'm old and wise

As far as my eyes can see

There are shadows surrounding me

And to those i leave behind

I want you all to know

You've always shared my darkest hours

I'll miss you when i go

And oh, when i'm old and wise

Heavy words that tossed and blew me

Like autumn winds that will blow right through me

And someday in the mist of time

When they ask you if you knew me

Remember that you were a frined of mine

As the final curtain falls before my eyes

Oh when i'm old and wise

As far as my eyes can see

Oalahh..

Niat awal mau ganti template blog. Setelah tanya2 n nemu web addressnya, akhirnya nyoba2 tuh nyari yang bagus. Banyak sih, yang bagus, but the problem occured when I don't find the comments link on it.
Nanya Sisca. Nyari dari contoh template yang ada. Lalu copy paste.

Malah jadi ribet!
Akhirnya balik lagi ke template blogspot yang ada, tapi ga lagi pake yang blue dots itu.
Ternyata bagus juga.

Oalahh..Berjam2 ngabisin waktu dengan browsing, akhirnya baliknya ke situ2 juga..

Nobody does it better

Nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it half as good as you
Baby, you're the best

I wasn't lookin', but somehow you found me
I tried to hide from your love light
But like heaven above me
The spy who loved me
Is keeping all my secrets safe tonight

And nobody does it better
Though sometimes I wish someone could
Nobody does it quite the way you do
Why'd you have to be so good?

The way that you hold me
Whenever you hold me
There's some kind of magic inside you
That keeps me from runnin'
But just keep it comin'
How'd you learn to do the things you do?

And nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it half as good as you
Baby, you're the best

The old yoga club

Suddenly remember our yoga club.

Recently I did a little yoga at home, just to make sure I had a little sport to energize my life and physical condition. Not a routine yoga, just two to three days a week, each only half an hour. Hasilnya? Not bad.. Beside releasing my stress that I had to face in the office, also reducing my weight :) Already 3 kilos too much. Hehehe..

Then I remember my former yoga club. Our yoga club. Yang bulan Januari kemaren harus berenti setelah melewati 3 term.

There were 6 persons. Me, Terry, Jennyfer, Sisca, Andrae, and Tania. We had it twice a week, Wednesday and Friday. Wednesday at 3, and Friday at 2.

I miss the yoga club. Kumpul2nya, ketawa2nya, lucu2annya. Tiap kali mau mulai pasti selalu harus telepon Terry karena dia selalu terlambat, paling akhir dateng, malah kadang2 kelewatan telatnya :) Inget gimana tiap abis yoga kita selalu terkapar dan leha2 di karpet, kelaparan karena kita ga boleh makan sampe dua jam setelahnya. Ga inget mandi, males mandi, dan saat mau mandi badan udah dingin dan ga keringetan lagi sehingga males.

Now every person had move on.
I, in Jakarta, try to build my life.
Jennyfer, in Tokyo, tries to make new life there.
Tania, tries to continue her life as postgraduate student.
Sisca, still in Bandung, searches for career life.
Terry and Andrae, both try to make path for their future life.

So, guyz? How about a reunion 10 years later?

Gossip!

Dasar gossipers..

Few days ago my friend asked me about my cousin returning to our office. Jadi gue tanya balik, "Lo tau dari mana? As far know: No." Setelah melalui perjuangan yg ga terlalu sulit ngorek2, akhirnya muncul satu nama dari mulut siapa berita konyol itu muncul. Selidik punya selidik, ternyata gosip itu udah nyebar sampe ke lantai bawah; Associates.

Another gossip strikes. Gosip yang ini gue taunya dari sobat2 gue di kantor. Beberapa hari sebelum pesta ultah kantor, mereka barengan pulang sama seorang associate dari bawah. Si associate ini nanya, "Eh, media tracker ada yang mau resign ya?" Setelah diselidiki, ternyata orangnya adalah.. Gue! Hahahaha! Berita itu malah katanya jauh lebih santer daripada berita kembalinya sepupu gue ke kantor ini.

Katanya, gue dikabarin ga akan memperpanjang kontrak gue pas habis Agustus ini.
What?? I never say that.. Gue cuma bilang bahwa kalo gue dapet kerjaan lain sebelum kontrak abis, berarti gue ga akan perpanjang.

Hahahaha!
Lucu juga! Akhirnya ada lagi yg gosipin gue setelah sekian lama ga digosipin!

Concert for D

Yesterday.. Okay, yesterday I was absent. Caught flu. Bersin2 spanjang hari dan bener2 ga fit. Secara selama di Bandung gue pulang malem terus, dan angin2an. Bandung lagi dingin, not to mention every movie theater I entered selama dua malem berturut2, dan mantel gue tipis. Good. Jadi seharian kemarin I stayed at home, watch TV, play The Sims, sembari nyicil monthly report gue.

So, kemarin Starworld nayangin konser ultahnya alm. Lady Di, tagged 'Concert for D'. 6 hours non-stop concert, dan performernya bagus2. Ditayangin tunda dari Wembley Stadium, London, dan itu megah banget. Salah satu pertunjukannya bahkan ada Swan Lake Ballet, from Act Finale, bagian di mana Odette diselamatin Prince Sigfrid. Keren banget, they performed ballet in an open stage. Bersama dengan pasukan2 angsanya, they looked fantastic dengan point shoes dan tutu klasik warna putih, with full orchestra playing Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake. I never watched ballet. Too expensive. Kaum proletar :) padahal gue suka banget ballet. It's a high class dance.

Lalu ada lagi serangkaian performance yg gue juga suka banget. Musicals, from Andrew Lloyd Webber. Mulai dari Jesus Christ Superstar, trus ada Music of The Night brought by Andrea Boccelli (it was awesome!), All I Ask of You brought by Sarah Brightman and Josh Groban (it was even better!), and the peak was from 'Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat', Any Dream Will Do dibawain sama 3 orang pemeran Joseph.. one of them is Jason Donovan!

Transformers The Movie

Last Friday we went to the movie Ciwalk XXI. There were me, Terry, Rini, Satriya, Sisca, Lambas,Feddy, and Hariyanto. We used Mandiri Debit Card as promoted that buy 1 get 1, yang mana satu kartu bisa dipake untuk 2 kali transaksi. So, with 2 cards we can get 8 tickets, @Rp12,500. Perfect.

I thought the movie is the kind of imaginary (yah emang iya juga sih) and frankly I wasn't really like on something robotic or imaginary science-fiction movie. Kayak model2 alien, atau laba2 yang tiba2 bisa jadi gede, or mutants.

So you know bahwa gue tadinya agak malas nonton Transformers, tapi toh ga ada ruginya nonton Rp12,500.

2 and a half hours from the time I entered the theater, I got out with a totally different thought. I have changed my mind. I must say that this movie is great. I really like this movie. Bahkan untuk ukuran gue yg sama sekali ga suka film2 fantasi - yg kadang2 suka kelewat berfantasi - gue suka banget film ini. Mungkin karena gue suka pesawat n futuristic cars. Can you imagine even a new Camaro and Pontiac can turn into an incredible robots?

I like when they transformed and the way they transformed.. So cool! Keren banget! Dari pontiac mewah abu2 jadi Kamerad Jazz, trailer merah-biru jadi Optimus Prime, camaro kuning jadi Bumblebee..
