My Messy Closet

Back in the day when I first heard of the song “Everything
will be Alright” by, I’m happy to consider this band as one of my favorite
bands, The Killers, I was pretty depressed. I remember I used to watch The OC
at the middle of the night with a BUNCH of snacks, cursing and mumbling about
how it was a NEARLY-matched story between my novel’s storyline and The OC’s. Right,
I was pathetic. It did stop me from writing on my novel and I know I am a real
bummer because of that. But I’ve decided that I will continue writing my novel
as soon as I get rid of all of those bastardious (I created this word) mid
semester tests.

But that time was very pleasurable and the fact that The OC
has introduced me to The Killers’ music is probably the best thing that has
ever happened to me! OK, yeah I exaggerate it, but I’m so glad that I’m The
Killers’ fan!

My first love with The Killers is definitely “Everything
will be Alright”. Since most people knew The Killers by the song “Mr. Brightside”,
I find it sort of strange yet sexy at the same time. This posting was called
“I’m dreaming bout those dreamy eyes” because that’s a line I’m most in love
with in the song “Everything will be Alright”. The song is basically about
breakups and yeah, it really does sound melancholy and that’s why I love it.

I’m so excited about the new album “Sawdust”. In fact, I
have already heard (and listened to) the single “Tranquilize”. My first
impression was only, “Wow”. I was amazingly amazed by the evolution that has
occurred in the band’s musicality. They have grown so much into a whole new
point I called “postmodernism”, literally. I love the song. “Tranquilize” is
full of political and social issues, darkness, yet still sounds hopeful. I
personally think that this song is about the
Doomsday of our world and the fact that it’s mainly caused by people’s madness.
I don’t get all the lyrics but the line “with the Bushes and the bombs”
explains a lot.

I hope I can get more info about what the song means soon.
Till then, I think I should just listen to the brilliantly-written song
“Tranquilize” just to see if I will change my mind about it being a song about
war. But, who knows?

Jangan bilang kamu nggak suka makan mie. Aku suka mie walaupun gak setiap hari aku makan mie.

But for the last two days, I always, I mean ALWAYS made mistake when I cook my noodles. Pertama, aku numpahin bumbunya dari mangkuk. Alhasil, mie-ku jadi agak hambar dan bener-bener gak maknyuzz. Kedua, waktu aku bikin popmie, aku terlalu lama ngediemin popmie ku, jadinya mie terlalu ngembang dan kuahnya tinggal dikit banget.

hiks.. I just want tasteful noodles, why can’t I have it?!!!

Sunday is a fine day. You tell me. It’s quiet and rather bummy but it’s fine. I love the rain and the fact that I actually could take a nap that day. Back at the moment, I realize that taking a nap sometimes can be so refreshing no matter how old you are (I used to think that taking a nap in the afternoon is kinda cildish).

My boss said I can have my salary as soon as I’m finish with my lessons with the current student I am teaching. That’s great, more money, more headache.

My girl friends stopped by last Friday. It was fun having these people messing around in the house since I always felt like alone. But in fact, I AM living alone at it’s definitely fine by me. I can survive.

These two weeks have the lowest points of happiness in my chart board. I cannot tell you why but I really hate my life for the past 2 weeks and maybe for the next week. I think I need some sort of.. I don’t know. I’m just waiting for the mid tests to be over. It already drove me pretty mad.

But last Sunday was a boost. Hope next Sunday will be better. Cao for now!

Aku suka banget foto ini! Pesan perdamaian+kasur+mawar=romantis! hahaha. check this out:

    Kapan sih aku bisa nonton film "HAIRSPRAY"?

    Yg aku liat di Oprah Show, film Hairspray keren banget! John Travolta berperan jadi ibu-ibu yang imut dan ceritanya mengangkat tema rasisme dan segregasi di amerika tahun 60-an. Kok bisa ya? Di saat orang-orang Indonesia masih sibuk bikin film setan-setanan, mereka di sana sudah bisa bikin film bertema sensitif seperti itu dan membuatnya jadi film MUSIKAL?

    Ada seorang aktris baru yg ikut membintangi Hairspray, namanya Nikki Blonsky dan dia baru berumur 17 tahun. Sebelum dia "terpilih" jadi pemeran, dia cuma cewek penjual eskrim yang pengen banget jadi aktris. WOW. Di saat orang-orang di Indonesia sibuk milihin orang indo untuk dijadikan artis meskipun mereka ga punya bakat akting, di sana ada kesempatan bagi cewek gemuk penjual es krim untuk mewujudkan mimpi menjadi aktris karena dia memang PUNYA kemampuan akting? blah!

Gimana ya kalo aku dateng ke kampus dengan dandanan kayak gini?
hahaha:

I wanna stop being a lazy ass critics but this country and its people won’t
let me. They keep supplying me more half-brained celebrity-(wannabes) to laugh at.

 As Syaiful Jamil keeps singing songs about breakups on
national television, smiling his ass off like a moron, I keep telling my self
to keep my mouth shut and not to think about it. But still, he PISSES ME OFF!!!

While people treat
divorce as something they’re extremely ashamed of , this Jamil guy CELEBRATES his divorce
by going to Dufan?! What could be more moronic than that?! I mean, he thinks
it’s cool to act amazingly dumb on television? No, this is worse; I think he
didn’t realize that he was being dumb!

Well at least it’s another reason why I should be thankful
that I am me.

Ada yang pernah nyoba Yahoo! Answers (yg international, bukan yg indonesia)? Since it’s my own blog I want to brag about my best answers there. haha.

I already got 3 "Best Answers", tiga-tiganya dipilih oleh si penanya. Dua di antara "best answer" yg aku dpt adalah saran fashion, satunya adalah saran untuk rambut. How cool is that? Haha.

It really does amuse me. You should try answering people’s questions there. It’s really nice to be able to help people.

So now, when I see Indonesian girls somewhere thinking that she’s the queen of fashion, I wouldn’t be bothered coz I’m very good at giving people fashion advice. And the best part is, these people I helped is from the US. Hah! (Again) How cool is that?!!

I’m brilliant. I know.

I cannot imagine how awful I look today.

When I woke up this morning, I found my throat was dying. It
was painful and you bet it felt like hell. “Panas dalam”, that’s what they call
it in Indonesian. My head seemed like it has gained weight over a night. It was
truly, irritatingly, HEAVY. My eyes? They were so red and warm. Right, it was
such a bad morning I was having.

Just four hours earlier (yes, I didn’t have enough sleep). I
have to write a 5-page paper about “minor relationship” despite of the fact
that I have no idea whether the term “minor relationship” is really exist in
English. Google is not much a help, for you to know. Having read the book
Enneagram for Love and Relationship, I thought I should just write about it. I
gave it a go and I’m very thankful that I could submit my work on (the verge
of) time.

The campus was not much fun if you were sick. Trust me.
Everyone was smiling and talking while I’m, literally, dying.

And right now I’m here, writing on my blog, imagining that
someday I would be able to publish it as a book. I have read Kambing Jantan
before, it extremely amuses me that someone was able to publish his diary as a
book. The book is very comical but not much like a real everyday life. I don’t
know, that’s just one person’s opinion.

I hate that Indonesian MTV VJ. He’s calling himself Crazy VJ
Mike. Basically, he’s just one more reason why I really hate this country. What
is it about him that I hate? He’s trying too hard I guess. He should get a
life.

I love Ary. The only sane person I’ve ever met. Haha, no I’m
just kidding. There are many sane people I’ve met. Ary is my type 9 baby. Right now he’s in his hometown, paying his vehicle tax. Why can’t we pay taxes through ATM or internet? I mean, in this century, do I have to travel for 4 hours just for paying my taxes? That’s lame.

Uya Kuya is a real funny guy. I’m watching him right now at Global TV. Is it true that he owns
Lutuye Salon?

Did I overstate something in this post? Well, yeah, I’m a
type four in Enneagram. I always exaggerate everything. Deal with it.

Aku punya pertanyaan: kenapa gampang banget berdandan ala
“emo” dan dikenal sebagai “emo” lewat dandanan kita, tapi sebaliknya susah
banget untuk memaknai musik emo itu sendiri?

Kalo ternyata emo itu hanya sebuah gaya berpakaian? Yucks, mending aku dress up
kayak hippie deh! Pake bunga di kepala, jaket jeans lusuh, senyum lebar, dua
jari ngacung… peace…. hahaha

Boys, please don’t be so stereotypical….
