Am I that bubbly?

Most of my friends know me as a bubbly person. I act as a cheerful person each day, or at least, try to be cheerful. I can say I'm somewhat childish and this is probably due to my mental age being younger than my real age. Often times I talk about random things with my senpais and some close friends; things that are unusual and stupid (and by the way this habit is not influenced by Cat Valentine). Sometimes some questions I ask bother my senpais because they think "it's abnormal and we should not be talking about it".  I'm an expressive...

The most chaotic thing.. when you spit it out all at once...

I think human brain is the most wonderful part of body every human being in this world has. Brain controls everything. It tells you to either scream or stay calm when you step on a LEGO brick. It tells you to drink when you feel thirsty (unless you're fasting). Brain enables human to do lots of things. Human collects information every day and stores them in their brain so let's say that human brain is a super duper extra wonderful data storage.  Did...

Wafer Ice Cream Sandwich

So this is what you HAVE TO BUY during your visit in Singapore..  Ice cream sandwich! Who doesn't love ice cream sandwich? Well, I love ice cream sandwich and that's not my hand in the picture, but I love chocolate ice cream sandwich. You could find ice cream sandwich stalls almost everywhere, but they are most likely to be seen near shopping areas (I bought one near Bugis Junction and bought one again near Ngee Ann City on the same day)....

Why should men use three pedals? Why should women be cooking?

Beberapa hari yang lalu saya sempat ngobrol dengan Ahomine-senpai di koridor gedung fakultas; obrolan santai sambil nunggu dosen tiba. Lalu setelah ngobrol kesana kemari, tiba-tiba topik berubah jadi topik otomotif dan transportasi (intinya sih ngomongin tentang mobil dan nyetir mobil). Saya bilang sama senpai kalau saya punya SIM A. Saya bisa bawa mobil transmisi manual, tapi lebih nyaman kalau mengendarai mobil transmisi otomatis. Biar nggak ribet waktu macet, alasan saya. Lalu senpai saya bilang kalau laki-laki itu harusnya mengendarai...

[to: Hyuuga-Senpai]

[to: Hyuuga-senpai] [from: Kuro-kouhai] [April, 21 2014 - 10:52p.m.] Senpai, how are you doing? Things go well, right? The game DVDs that you lent to me; I need you to help me to install the games. I find it quite confusing since some discs require this and that and another A-to-Z requirement that I am not so familiar with. By the way, I think I'm gonna re-install the first game you lent the disc to me. The crack file doesn't work and as you've told me, I should not have updated the game through the launcher. I asked Azari about Katy Perry...

[Re-post] Buying memories

PS: Ini sebetulnya note yang ada di Facebook saya (dan kali ini gue refer ke diri sendiri pake "saya" lagi. Yowes lah). Berhubung menurut saya note ini cukup inspiratif (buat saya sih gitu.. nggak tau kalau buat pembaca yang lain), maka saya putuskan untuk re-post itu disini. Pada intinya sih, di note ini saya mencoba melebarkan paradigma orang tentang kebahagiaan; bahwa kebahagiaan itu 1) nggak harus selalu mahal; 2) terkadang nggak ditemukan di tempat-tempat yang orang bilang 'pusatnya' kebahagiaan.  Mengingat sebuah kalimat yang...

[Music Review] Always With Me ~ いつも何度でも

Buat temen-temen yang pernah nonton film Spirited Away (千と千尋の神隠し - Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi), kemungkinan pernah dengar salah satu lagu dari kumpulan soundtracknya yang berjudul "Always With Me" (いつも何度でも - Itsumo Nando Demo). Sebetulnya ini lagu sudah lama ada tapi saya masih suka dengerin (kok tiba-tiba gue pake kata "saya" buat refer ke diri sendiri ya? Ah, ya sudahlah). Pertama kali denger lagu ini, saya lagi kumpul bareng temen-temen dan...

Selepas UN

Minggu ini merupakan minggu yang berat buat anak-anak SMA kelas 3 karena mereka harus mengikuti yang namanya Ujian Nasional (UN) supaya bisa melanjutkan ke jenjang pendidikan berikutnya. Sebenernya adanya UN ini dari dulu udah banyak memicu pro-kontra, dan gue termasuk yang kontra sama UN. Gimana nggak? Perjuangan belajar di SMA selama 3 tahun di-judge begitu aja dengan tes selama 4 hari (eh, apa udah jadi 3 hari aja ya sekarang? Tau deh). Kalau misalnya nih nggak lulus (knock on the wood, amit-amit), kan sayang banget tuh belajar tiga tahun...

That old lady

This evening I saw an old lady on my way home, and actually it wasn't the first time I saw her. I've seen her a couple times before. She never changes; she looks the same, wearing dull clothes and a veil, sitting on the sidewalk, with a glass containing some pennies. She is not young anymore; I can say that she is sixty something. I can't tell how long she had been sitting there but she was there this evening and I saw her. She must have been there...

"TOUCH to START"

Every time somebody gives me money, I always immediately put it in my wallet. So yeah, I just got money and immediately put it in my wallet. There are some cards in my wallet. I saw that card; the card that I have not used for quite a long time, the card that I used to insert to that machine to have some fun. I took it out and stared at it for a while. Well, it really has been a long time I guess.. I think I was so addicted to the game that...

(Throwback Monday) Hello, May 28th!

This post would be a reminiscence of my seventeenth (or maybe eighteenth?) birthday. In May 2012 my family and I flew back to Singapore. It had been quite a long time since the last time I flew to Singapore so I really was excited. To my surprise, my parents had planned the date of departure before so we left for Singapore on May 27th which means that I, inevitably, would celebrate my birthday there. As I went on procedure of immigration, the officer...

Hey, Sprinkle!

It rained again today. I could not tell whether or not it was a hard rain but it was raining this afternoon; what I knew that rain came down and that's all (I was too busy chatting with a friend about our indie-film plan). The temperature dropped slightly and I started to feel cold. After chatting for a while, I looked out the window, only to find that the rain got lighter. It was sprinkle rain and I always love sprinkle rain. Enthusiastically I opened the window to feel the drops. The atmosphere was so serene--so calm that you could just sleep...

Hello, "Edit HTML"!

Gue udah lama nggak berkutat dengan "Edit HTML" dan semacamnya. Yeah, you know skrip HTML dipake buat bikin sebuah situs atau modifikasi blog (misalnya). Udah sangat lama, kalo gue bisa bilang, sejak terakhir kali gue berkutat dengan HTML script (dan gue rasa terakhir gue berkutat sama skrip kayak begitu jaman gue SMA, karena di textbook grammar gue nggak ada dijelasin tentang skrip HTML). Waktu itu memang setiap murid ditugaskan buat bikin blog dan berhubung gue pengguna blog sejak SMP, jadi gue tinggal poles aja blog yang gue punya (blog...

Lighthouse of "Beautiful Times"

Kemaren malem gue liat post tentang single barunya Owl City yang judulnya "Beautiful Times". Dan surprisingly, kita bisa unduh lagunya secara cuma-cuma. I was wondering how come Adam spread the single for free, karena biasanya kan single yang dirilis harus kita beli. Waktu gue cek ke situsnya (check it here: beautifultimes.owlcitymusic.com), gue akhirnya percaya kalo single itu bisa diunduh secara cuma-cuma--tentunya dengan ikuti beberapa step yang...

[Music Review] Girls' Generation - Mr. Mr. (Album)

Sebetulnya gue mau post review ini di blog pertama, tapi berhubung satu dan lain hal gue nggak sempet buat publish post itu. Jadi, ya sudah gue bikin lagi aja di blog kedua ini.  Udah lumayan lama berarti semenjak EP ke-empat Girls' Generation dirilis, dan tadinya gue berfikir bahwa review gue bakalan jadi satu dari the first reviews yang muncul di internet. Emang dasar gue yang males, review yang gue bikin nggak kelar-kelar. Tapi...

The First Post

So this would be the first post on my second blog. I decided to create a new blog for an unknown reason. I don't know it just happened. Suddenly something popped up on my mind saying "Well I think you need to create a new blog" and I just followed what it said. So, voila! This is my second blog and yeah, of course, lots of random things would be posted here. Creating a new blog does not mean that I leave my first one. No. The old one would still be used and I'll post there some times. I'm going to use either English or Indonesian for my posts...
