C H A N G E

you've changed... you're no longer the same person I used to know, but it is a good change.

Saya agak ngakak ketika teman lama saya menyampaikan hal diatas. Kalimat diatas bukan pertanyaan (dan kalaupun pertanyaan itu retorik banget), tapi cukup membuat saya bertanya pada diri sendiri, seberapa banyak saya berubah? Hmm... let's see..

how much have I changed after I started this blog, six or seven years ago?

That is the rhetoric question, with only one possible answer: SO MUCH... but not too much.

The Sparkling Sea

あなたがここにいたら、何を言いますか？

時間を戻すことができれば、別の選択をしますか？

海が決して存在しなかったならば、まだ航海を選ぶだろうか？

多くのことを学びました

大好きである限り、海が嫌いです

海は私にとってとても大切なものを取り去ったから

それ以来、私は同時に強いと弱いなりました

存在は完全に消去されていません

なんで 私 じゃなかった の?

なんで 信じなかった の?

ずっと 待ってた の よ

泣きましたか？

どうして何か尋ねなかったの？

なぜ自分の頭でシナリオを作りましたか？

その日にどれくらい泣いたか知っていましたか？

ほんとに 大好き だった

本当に 待ってた

私は簡単に憎む望みます

私は簡単にあなたを憎む望みます

でも、嫌うことはできません

如何してもできません

The Room of Facts

Why doing this?
Because... Well... Why not?

This list will grow along the time as long as I want to write about it.

I address myself in third point of view.

you know, you have to be...

What I see from myself is a lot more important than what people see.

The Moment of Truth

July is the month of conclusion.

The Unstoppable Me

Is there anybody who can stop me?

the thing I lost in June, the thing I found in June

it is just the power of fate; it is just the secret of God.

I'm female and I don't like pink too much... so?

  

 Others: "As a female, you should like pink! It's feminine, it's soft, it's 'female'!"

Me: shrugged it off and said, "Sorry, are you saying something?"

I am still as much as I used to be, or maybe more?

Dragon

if my life is gamified, then I'd be fighting a dragon right now.

Day 29: Shadows

I cannot lie that I see glimpses of people I hurt in the past when I listened to this song the very first time. I guess that is what people said about 'shadows from your past'.

Day 28: Defined

I am so bad at defining when to give up.

Day 27: Betrayed

nobody likes to be reminded of a betrayal.

Day 25: Run

everyday, I count my step, to get to the end

Day 24: Honest

having someone you can be honest to, is definitely a bless

Pertama kali saya lihat trailer movie ini di pesawat, saya cuma sempat browsing sekilas setibanya saya di tujuan, melihat deretan award yang diraih, tapi tidak (belum) sempat benar-benar nonton maupun download. Jadi, akhirnya saya berkesempatan nonton movie ini di penerbangan lima bulan berikutnya, dan… sempat bingung mencegah supaya tidak-nampak-seperti-orang-aneh (if you know what I mean) di sepertiga terakhir movie.

Because my face must showed too many emotions at once.
