A Day Under The Sky


I want to fly to that sky,
Today, I want to touch that cloud
Because it’s lower than the sky,
Only if my finger tip could reach the edge of that sky..
I want to get out of this confined city, but I can’t.
Looking at the birds flying across the sky, I want to fly away with them
Under the blue sky, I want to fly freely with them

-Like A Bird (FT Island)-

Katak Di Luar Tempurung


Hampir genap dua bulan (akhirnya) saya keluar dari tempurung. Ibarat katak, sejak jadi kecebong sampai bisa berenang, ruang lingkup saya ya cuma sediameteran itu.

Umur setahun saya sudah resmi jadi warga Depok. Delapan tahun menuntut ilmu di TK dan SD yang jarak tempuhnya ga lebih lama dari masak mie instan. Tiga tahun masa ABG saya juga cuma sejarak hati eneng ke abang. Ga jauh. Pun masa putih abu-abu saya yang cuma disekitaran sekolah sebelumnya.

Akhirnya lepas seragam sekolah, tapi ternyata Allah masih menakdirkan saya menimba ilmu di daerah tersebut. Depok. Alhamdulillah.

Setelah terkungkung dalam zona membosankan namun nyaman, katak keluar menjajal dunia luar. Rutinitas 'ngilmu' saya mendadak berubah. Habit "jadwal kelas jam satu sepuluh, berangkat jam satu", kini menjadi "kelas jam satu, berangkat jam sepuluh". Yah.. beda Tipis.
Here i am, 'terdampar' di ladang baru dimana harga sate ayam plus lontong dengan rasa standar adalah tujuh belas ribu dan es kelapa sembilan ribu.

Setidaknya sekarang bukan cuma asap hitam kaleng sarden roda empat, kemacetan yang ga ada jutrungannya dan manusia dengan emosi tingkat tinggi layaknya mutan hasil polusi yang lebih akrab dengan saya, tapi juga Bapa. Ya, lokasi kampus baru yang bertetangga dengan kantor Bapa akhirnya bisa bikin saya 'lebih nyambung' sama doi. Paling engga, sekarang ada topik untuk dibicarakan saat cuma berdua. Walaupun cuma 'gibahin' matahari yang lagi suka ngasih extra panas di tengah hari. Lumayan, makhluk ketiga yang suka ada ditengah-tengah saya dan Bapa mulai berkurang. Jangkrik udah mulai melirik dua orang manusia lain yang lagi kejebak dalam momen ngomong-apa-lagi-nih-gue-sekarang. Saya juga jadi menuntut diri untuk lebih semangat dan rela hati menempuh 20 km (yang terkadang cuma untuk satu setengah jam di kampus), kali aja pahalanya juga jadi berpuluh kali lipat :D

Guitar That Sing



They don't have high tone voice that can make you goosebumps.
You will not find any lyrics on their album.
Their faces are so-so.
When on stage, you'll see they just sit on chair with guitars in their hands.
How about dance? don't ever ask.
All they have are skillful finger...

Here they are DEPAPEPE!

Two young men: Toku and Miura, stole my heart at the first sight. Never expect before, guitar can be damn incredible!

When twiiter spread the news that DEPAPEPE will be on JSF2011 list i feel so excited. For the first time in my life i really wanna come to that annual music festival. I searched and joined the quizzes to win the ticket that cost IDR350K/day (sorry, i'm still student bro. haha). But, unfortunately there's no me on winner list. Sad.

The show was on September 24 (Saturday).

Friday evening. (Still) no ticket for me. I came late to the class, and the lecturer didn't allow me to come in. Perfect bad day.

And suddenly got text message:
"I get two tickets from my boss for tomorrow, will join me or not? Reply!"

Absolutely YES YES YES!

GOD is so kind to me. Feel so blessed!!
Thanks God you allowed me to watch them at Java Soulnation Festival 2011.


As a good sister (haha), i tried to persuade my dad to buy ticket for my younger sister because just like me, she also wanna see them on live stage.

Finally, we could watch DEPAPEPE live performance! And (for me) the ticket was really fell from the sky! Yeeehaaa~ What a happy ending story~


Meet my savior, yoan

Their first song that grabbed my attention and my heart >.<



Personal greeting before come to Indonesia (and their new single), such a nice boys^^
