the world was a song

I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high
And life worth living

But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
And they turn your dream to shame

I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving

Anywhere But Here...

I wish for a place
where the earth doesn't shake
If the earth won't be still, then I will
and my friends can be my family,
and they can be my company
then I'll take them to a party and we'll have fun



can you tell me if I'm near to anywhere but here?

I wish for a place where it's not such a waste
I can tell the girls my name,
it's okay although it's plain

If I could sleep
then I would dream of what you promised me
and everything would seem better than it is.
I wish for a place where I could go
'cause everything here moves so slow.

Can you tell me if I'm near to anywhere but here?

I wish for a place where the earth doesn't shake.
If the earth won't be still,
then you and I will.

Can you tell me if I'm near to anywhere but here?

tribute to my dad....



My dad is a fashion critique
He doesn't like me wearing any tight, girly stuff. He thinks an architect should wear a tartan flanel long sleeve shirt and baggy trousers with lot of pockets. The only thing he agreed with me is my converse shoes.

My dad and his car
He follows music trends and listens to Jason Mraz and Maroon Five. Jump in his car, always find some new hip cds... "Can i make a copy of this daadddd....."

My dad and Kungfu Series
For as long as i remembered, he always watched kungfu series... My niece got called "Princess Cheung Ping" by him

My dad is a musician...
He played guitar quite well. He impressed my mom before they got married, by singing in an american community band.... It was Speedy Gonzales, which afterward he sings it to his children couple timess.......I can easily picture him sing the " laa... lala lala lalalala......". He has terrific voice, Randy Jackson might told " Wow... man, you truly can sing... yow yow yow..." . I love doing karaoke with him.... Our favourite duet is Thousand Miles.... I still got the record, papss

My dad is cool
My 68 dad still wears adidas shoes and jeans to the office. He's into fashion alot... Could spend hours finding the pants, ties and shirt he wanted... His favorite, beige short pants and Hanes tshirt

My dad always smells good....
never go out without his favourite parfume. Even when he went to wet market... You can smell him like in 20 meter radius.

My dad is a great chef
He's an expert in making superduperdelicious spaghetti, well-known among his daughter's friends... His Ikan teri Fried Rice also makes me miss to come back home... Often find him making us Fish Ball Noodle in the morning..... "Paa... mau sarden pake tomat yang banyakk"

My dad is a big narcist
Just right on the garage, you'll find different pose of him hanging on the wall. He wore sunglasses, he without sun glasses, he's smiling... he is not.... he wore hat, he lifted the hat, T_T puh leez, now i know where i get the things from...

My dad rarely uses public transport..
Two years ago he insisted to go to Pasar Senen to buy me Char Siu using Metromini. We were worried like crazy..... He stated in mind.... that "When you go down from the bus must start with ur right leg, and when you up using your left leg..... ". That was the theory !!! When he came home, he said that (well okay) he got confused and ended using both legs,,,, that was really funny imagining him jumped out from the bus.

My dad and his six daughters.....
When we were little, twice a year he took us on vacation.... all six of us. When we grow older, we still are his babies. Never in a second he doesn't think about us.... always keep in touch, always sending mail, always phone you at the right moment when you feel down. Being surrounded by girls, makes him a very sensitive dad... (yeah pap, i think u're not born with it) , he easily cries...

My dad is Opung Kumis
He got 7 grandchildren. He and my mom often show up infront of my sister house without warning. Playing with the boys, making fun of the girls, all the grandies love love him.

My dad loves going out
Take him out for dinner and you never feel sorry to see how big his smile enjoying a big bowl of Vietnamese Noodle. We often watch film together, buy big pack of popcorn with extra butter and cups of pepsi, purrfecto.

My dad loves my mom....
He always comes home for lunch and adores all my mom's cook. Recently he phoned me that he'd like to make a web site to sell her chocolate cookies, to spread the world how good the cookies are..... We'll support u paps.....

My dad and his hair
...never touched barber shop, his hair always maintains by my mom. Specialty, he, sat on our backyard with that green plastic chair, old newspaper on the floor, and my mom wore that handgloves, and steel scissor and she started cutting and painting his hair..... "mbaak, masak air panas buat bapak.. "

My dad is the best advisor...
Year ago he told me the secret that he said only me knew about working social....
How he got the opportunity, how he achieved things..... how to get up... Well done carnegie!

My dad is a golfer
He goes everywhere to play his favourite sport. When our house got robbed eight years ago, and the thief also took his callaway golf clubs... He was so sad.... He got the replacement right away, but not the brand that he wanted.... One day...dad, i'll send you callaway......

My dad and his ring...
It was 5 months ago he told me that he wanted me to get his alumni class ring from Texas University if the time comes.. No dad, you're going to live forever and the ring shall goes with you.....

My dad and me
He always prays with me every time i had to go back to Bintan... He said " God, please take care of my daughter..... in place that isolated as it was, please give her company, please sending her the right person, and the success on her work...." My dad always wants me back to Jakarta.. but he knows that this is a way...

The experience had changed me, he knows it.

Love you forever......

you always be the reason why i always want to go home

i got confused....

Irr : "My friends told me lately that i may have problem with inconsistency... Nahh!! i just have hardly time to say no.... and just wanted to do things i comfortable with... but ended up by saying yes... then no...aw but yes..... hahaha that's ME .... accept it will you.... ? *wink* "

Merujuk ke kamus Miriam-Webster Online, kata ini berasal dari bahasa latin consistent-, consistens, yang merupakan present participle dari consistere. Kata ini berarti :

possessing firmness or coherence, free from variation or contradiction, showing steady conformity to character (buat konsistensi dalam hal karakter seseorang), tending to be arbitrarily close to the true value of the parameter estimated as the sample becomes large (dalam aplikasinya di bidang statistika)

Menurut kamus yang lebih populer misalkan Kamus oxford, consistent adalah kata sifat yang berarti:

always behaving in the same way, having the same opinion, standard, etc.

It takes patience....

"Making your mark on the world is hard. If it were easy, everybody would do it. But it's not. It takes patience, it takes commitment, and it comes with plenty of failure along the way. The real test is not whether you avoid this failure, because you won't. It's whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere."

-Barack Obama-

Back to the Core

It's such a funny sensation to be
So happy that you wanna die
Promises always were crazy to me
But never was I so surprised

Minutes are longer when we are apart
Your presence's more than I can handle
It's come to the point where I wonder if I
Could ever be luckier when

Lend me your ears, I would like to confess
I'm doubting that you can be real...


irr : im thinking about toothless....
