Another Quote of The Day

The true success comes when you force yourself to the limit when you already are

-Mahardhika Kartikandini

Stay Positive, Singles! :)

Barusan saya menerima ajakan dari teman saya yang berpacar - tepatnya baru berpacar - untuk menonton Harry Potter : Deathly Hallows Part II bersama teman-teman lain yang berpacar, dan otomatis judulnya menjadi 'berberapa date'.

Saya, sebagai yang tidak berpacar diantara teman-teman, agak kurang 'sreg' dengan ajakan ini. Selain karena menjadi satu-satunya yang single (atau jomblo? -red) diantara yang berpacar, berpotensi juga menjadi kambing congek (dicuekin saat yang lain pacaran -red). Takut juga saya kalau-kalau tingkat kegalauan saya meningkat seiring dengan berjalannya waktu.

Oke, lanjut. Teman saya ini mengajak saya karena alasan dia sudah janji sama saya, tapi dia juga mau nonton film tsb dengan pacarnya. Tidak mungkin juga kami nonton bertiga. Selain karena alasan 'kambing congek', pacarnya nge'bully' saya. Bukan 'bully' dlm arti kekerasan, dia hanya terus mengejek & cak-cakin saya. Saya tau itu becanda, tapi saya tetap gak suka. Lebih baik saya tak ada daripada jadi bahan cak-cakan.

Dan keputusan terakhir, biarlah mereka yang berpacar nonton bersama. Biarlah saya yang tidak berpacar nonton bersama...........................siapa kek. Being single means being flexible :p:p

Anyway, saya gak tau apakah saya pernah segalau ini, tapi saya sedih banget, ternyata alasan pacar pun bisa merusak janji. Saya gak tau kalau ternyata perbedaan antara yang berpacar & tidak itu sejauh ini.

Well, post ini bukan untuk menggalau-galau. Justru dengan ini, daritadi saya berusaha banget mencari kata-kata untuk menghibur saya sendiri. Siapa kira saya dapat 2? :D

1) Pasangan diciptakan untuk saling melengkapi. Stay positive aja, kalau kita belum ada pasangan, berarti belum ada yang cukup mampu melengkapi kita? :)

2) Tidak semua yang berpacar itu bahagia dan tidak semua yang tidak berpacar itu gak bahagia. Bahagia gak ditentukan dari berpacar apa gak. Tinggal pilih mau bahagia, apa gak :)

Kesimpulannya adalah, pacaran emang bikin sirik, saya sadar banget. Gak jarang kesirikan ini berubah jadi ngebet banget punya pacar. Cuma, pacar bukan jaminan kita bahagia kok.

Just stay positive, singles! Semua orang udah diatur jalan hidup dan jodohnya masing-masing. Beberapa malah mengorbankan hak jodohnya demi hal-hal yang lebih manusiawi.

Well, saya gak tau apakah saya akan tetap berpikir seperti kalau saya sudah berpacar nanti, tapi yang pasti saya mau menikmati masa-masa kesendirian ini dulu :D

Back To December

I'm so glad you made time to see me

How's life, tell me how's your family
I haven't seen them in a while
You've been good, busier than ever
We small talk, work and the weather
Your guard is up and I know why

'Cause the last time you saw me
Still burned in the back of your mind
You gave me roses and I left them there to die

So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night
And I'd go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Wishing that I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I'd go back to December, turn around and make it alright
I go back to December all the time

These days I haven't been sleeping
Staying up playing back myself leaving
When your birthday passed and I didn't call
And I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughing from the passenger side and
Realized I loved you in the fall
And then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind
You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye

So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night
And I'd go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Wishing that I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind
I go back to December all the time

I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile, so good to me, so right
And how you held me in your arms that September night,
The first time you ever saw me cry
Maybe this is wishful thinking
Probably mindless dreaming
If we loved again I swear I'd love you right

I'd go back in time and change it but I can't
So if the chain is on your door, I understand

But this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I'm sorry for that night
And I'd go back to December
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you
Wishing that I'd realized what I had when you were mine and
I go back to December, turn around and make it alright and
I go back to December, turn around and change my own mind and
I go back to December all the time

got lyric from here

This is my recent favorite tune, Back To December by Taylor Swift.

This song is really just.............. easy listening. Although I didn't have any relation with this song, I still love this very much. Well, what love story you expect from me?

Anyway, do you got Bruno Mars' concert ticket? Well, too bad for me, I don't even coming :( I had a choir practice that day, and my parents don't let me out for concert. They said it was a waste of money. well, whatever you say, mom! I just wanna have fun, ya'know?

And I just did some photo editing, inspired by Back To December. Well, what can I say? I just adore this song so much!




What do you think? Basically I just searched the pictures, did some simply editing, and added some lines from Back To December lyric. Still an amateur -_-

Because You Were Chosen To Do So :)

Found this pic earlier at my Tumblr dashboard. This is a great quote. Very great. I saw it then seconds after that, I'm thinking to myself, "hey, this is so freaking true."

In life, we all felt the 'hold-back' feeling. When you are about to do something, then you feel like, no, I can't do it, that's impossible, ask someone else to do that instead, etc. And someone told us like, no, you're perfect to do that, come on you can do it, etc. But all we feel after that is feeling more holded back. And why is that?

I felt that too.

I am the leader of Rokris34 this year. When I first being chosen, I felt that too. But then I feel, well, this is a good chance. Maybe I can train myself to be a leader from this. Through the time, I feel like I didn't do good things as a leader. I miss some things, I can't do my job, etc. Then I feel the 'hold-back' feeling all over again. And whenever I got a job, I'm so lazy to do it. It's like, I don't like to do my job. At all.

But then, in Retreat Rokris34 last September, the priest told us that,"If you were chosen to do something, it meant that God has chosen you to do that from everyone else."

And it's true!

So, now, whenever I got a job or feel the 'hold-back' feeling again, I try to calm myself by repeating what the priest told me. And guess what? It really calms me down and I'm ready!

Gotta Work 'Till The Color Burst!

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag,
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper-thin
Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?

Do you ever feel already buried deep?
Six feet under screams, but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you?
'Cause there's a spark in you

You just gotta ignite the light, and let it shine
Just own the night like the Fourth of July

'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "ah, ah, ah!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go "ah, ah, ah!"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane, comes a rainbow

Maybe the reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow
And when it's time you know

You just gotta ignite the light, and let it shine
Just own the night like the Fourth of July

'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "ah, ah, ah!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go "ah, ah, ah!"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through

'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "ah, ah, ah!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go "ah, ah, ah!"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

-Firework by Katy Perry

after listening to this song, and watch the video, these words are like.... inspiring me so much. There are lines that is so 'me'. Make me go ah, ah, ah, left me in awe, awe, awe (haah kenapa gue malah jadi ngikutin liriknya begini-_-)

1. 'Cause baby, you're a firework, Come on, show 'em what you're worth.
Everyone is worth. Everyone is special in his/her own way. Maybe you are best in your way, but he/she is best in his/her way, a way you aren't best in. Don't ever underestimate them, cause you don't what's his/her capable of

2. Baby, you're a firework, Come on, let your colors burst
Lots of people (including me)are very shy and afraid of showing his/her/my capability. we are so afraid to show other people what are we really capable of. If we were asked to do something that we secretly know that is our real capability, we were in that request, we often reject. Why? Well, maybe that was our first time, so we were so afraid to be fail in the first try. But what if it isn't? We are afraid of being DIFFERENT. In this world, teenager especially, being different is worse than being not following the trends. That's wrong. Different is good, but please keep it in different in a good way :)

3. You're original, cannot be replaced
A VERY GOOD LINE. It's very true. I'm original, so I'm not trying to be someone else. I'm happy to be different, cause I cannot be replaced :)

4. After a hurricane, comes a rainbow
SAY THIS AS MANY TIMES AS YOU CAN, REMEMBER THIS. We believe that after problem, there will be a way to solve it. Just be patient, and be optimistic. Keep trying and trying, that the beauty of believing :)

this video is REALLY inspiring me. You, me, we, can do anything!
