sleeping beauty

most of my time I just want to sink in and forget everything. right now it sounds so emo but it’s really how the way it is

kadang kadang begitu

kadang air mata itu turun tanpa ditahan,
tidak perlu alasan, tidak perlu juga kenapa–
mungkin ada beban di bawah, yang tertahan dalam

yang bahkan pemiliknya sendiri pun tidak mengerti.
tapi lalu tersenyum,

karena
senyum itu
obat paling baik.

senyum sendiri saja, untuk diri sendiri

lalu bilang kamu bisa lewati semua dan bisa.

kamu bisa.
buang saja pikiran acak-acakan seperti benang kusut itu.

kamu takut apa? tidak ada.

karena meskipun semua orang pergi, Dia ada selalu,
kamu panggil atau tidak, selalu ada, selalu dan selalu
meskipun kamu sering lupa.

karena
“Allah selalu menolong yang sungguh-sungguh memohon kepada-Nya”.

Gear Up

I’m into K-indie right now. Most of them are folk and/or acoustic artists. Light, simple and heartwarming. This mix includes some of my favorites, like Urban Zakapa and Alex (he’s from major label tho, don mai), and some new discoveries; Morrie and July is one of them.

The progress of my final project is still too slow compared to other people. Okay maybe it’s really the time to bring out my moon crystal power make up.

I can do it. From the scratch, if I should.

hello

It’s already 2013, and I think I’ll start writing in here again.

Things that won’t be special, though–just a bit of daily life and so-so.
Anything I’d like to post, because I think I need to record my daily life again–here.
I am currently struggling with my final project.

Wish me luck. :)

p.s. I love links: pretty things scattered around

Sous la Neige by Mathilde Aubier.

My playlist is full of Nell-Efek Rumah Kaca-Copeland greatness. What a perfect playlist to greet the rainy season tbh. Finally I finished my midterm test! I still have plenty of papers to do though, but at least I can do it slowly and not doing it for two whole weeks.

If you like Copeland, or Coldplay, or Efek Rumah Kaca–you can try listening to Nell. They’re awesome. Here’s their latest release from this year, The Day Before (and the things that were left behind).
