Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, that's life


Dwayne: I wish I could just sleep until I was eighteen and skip all this crap-high school and everything-just skip it.

Frank: Do you know who Marcel Proust is?

Dwayne: He's the guy you teach.

Frank: Yeah. French writer. Total loser. Never had a real job. Unrequited love affairs. Gay. Spent 20 years writing a book almost no one reads. But he's also probably the greatest writer since Shakespeare. Anyway, he uh... he gets down to the end of his life, and he looks back and decides that all those years he suffered, Those were the best years of his life, 'cause they made him who he was. All those years he was happy? You know, total waste. Didn't learn a thing. So, if you sleep until you're 18... Ah, think of the suffering you're gonna miss. I mean high school? High school-those are your prime suffering years. You don't get better suffering than that.

My Coldplay-ish Life

So i want to be Bigger and Stronger but there are a lot Things I Don’t Understand. I ask Marianne and Moses and the they told me “Don’t Panic” i have to be calm and drink a Glass Of Water. Then i went to Violet Hill and Yes i cry, i don’t even see a Warning Sign of what am i about to do next, i have absolutely no idea. This is The Hardest Part of my life, the one where i have to make choices about my life and i don’t want to be Swallowed In The Sea because of my wrong decisions. Then i decided to take things In My Place, i want to Talk to my Brothers and Sisters about this and also my parents.

The Clocks are ticking and i began to Shiver is this a right decision? Can i even make this one come true and make my family proud. My mom told me that i can go to Amsterdam to take my Master degree if i am interested in law. All this thinking makes me feel like A Rush Of Blood To The Head. I don’t want to get in Trouble so i have to act right.

There are currently 42 new tweets appearing on my Twitterfox, this is one of the things that distract me from studying. And this Yellow Economics book are hunting me. It is like i hear A Whisper from it saying “You have to study..” I think times really do passed by just like that. They are running like a Speed of Sound. One time you look at the sky and it’s still a sunny Daylight then the night comes and the Cemetery of London becomes such a creepy place. I must admit sometimes i want to take control of time you know pause, stop, rewind, or even skip it. Such a shame that The Scientist have not yet invented a time machine.

I do hope that Everything’s Not Lost when i leave High School please just say “We Never Change” because i have the best group of friends in High School i really do, and you’re all the One I Love. Life is Such A Rush it’s going with a really High Speed. So my school mates, in the future i want to see a Postcards From Far Far Away and that postcard is from you! Maybe you will live in different countries with such an awesome job. Just please be Careful Where You Stand.. because it’s not always a Life In Technicolour If you’re not be careful you might catch yourself back in Square One.

That’s it fellas i hope God Put A Smile Upon Your Face today. This Rainy Day makes me sleepy and I hope I’ll See You Soon. Wish me luck on my future decisions, Viva La Vida!

Ciao,

My ship isn't pretty

Hello! Long no write, eh? It's been a long time since i actually write about my daily life, well that's because i don't feel like it. But now i think i'm about to write again. So here it goes...

I don't know where to start, there's so much going in my life right now and sometimes i just want it all to slow down. It's like time is ticking so fast, and yes i'm panicking. There a lot unnecessary drama going on in life right now, not important but somehow it bothers me.

The fact that i'm now a senior and will go to college very soon scares me. I'm scared that i won't go to my dream college and my dreams will shattered. That thought always makes me cry and it always running around in my mind. Like last night i was alone and i just cry so hard, yes i'm scared, yes i panic, and yes i'm feeling rather lonely. My friends told me that i have to take things easy and try not to think about the worst. But there are times that i feel that i'm going to failed. Then the fact that all of my family (mother, father, and sister) studied in UI for college makes me feel under pressure. It just bother me that i HAVE to get in there too, just to make my family proud. It just scare me to death thinking what if i'm not accepted in UI, what will happen to me? Will my family accept it? Honestly i don't know. I'm about to cry writing this, it's emotional if i have to think about my future.

To be honest i hate being a senior.

Cheers,
d

5 tracks of the week pt.2

Time for more 5 tracks of the week! I kinda love to do this maybe it will be my permanent post hahaha :p. So here it goes....

1. Flashback-Calvin Harris
Great great ggreat dance tune! Gaaaahh i love it since the first moment i hear it! This song makes you wanna dance all night long like seriously i'm not kidding :p Calvin Harris is a Scottish electronic musician and FYI he is the producer of Kylie Minogue album 'X'. His fiirst debut album called 'I Created Disco" was release in 2007 (which is a big success), and now he's back with his second album titled 'Ready For The Weekend' well by listening to this tune i am certainly ready for the weekened! :D


2. French Navy-Camera Obscura
A feel good pop-ish song with a nice lyrics to sing a long. Somehow this song have that sound to make you happy and feel perky. The vocal also have this vintage sounds that is very cathcy and easy listening. So from the first moment i heard this song i'm immediately fallling in love with it. Just keep an eye on Camera Obscura tunes, because they're great!


3. Fuck You-Lily Allen
This is my favorite track from the album! Maybe it's just because i'm in an angry mood at the time i listened to it hehehe but really, this song is about anger and so on but Lily Allen can make it sounds like a feel good song. This has proven that anger isn't always relates with screaming and headbangin. Great job Lily!


4. Mrs. Cold-Kings of Convenience
Finally they are back with a new album called Declaration of Dependence woohooo! I have been waiting this for so long i feel so happy! Well this song is just like typical KoC, soothing sounds and fantastic guitar play but i just love it. It cathes my ear because the intro is just beautiful and absolutely great. I hope they will visit Indo on their next tour *fingers crossed*


5. Rome-Phoenix (Neighbours with Devendra Banhart remix)
THIS IS TOP NOTCH! The original track itself is my favorite and this remix is great great great love it 100%. Phoenix + Devendra = greatness! To dwonload or just hear it just visit here

5 Tracks of The Week

1. Crystalised - The xx
This London based teenage quartet just released their debut album, and it blew me away. Crystalised is one of my favorite songs from the album, and it is my morning anthem. The soothing voice of Romy Madley Croft and Oliver Sim (who also play lead guitar and bass guitar respectively) really gives me chills every time i hear this song. Definitely worth to hear.


2. Passion Pit - The Reeling
The mood charger! The energetic sounds really make you want to dance and jump. Listen to this song with the max volume and you can feel that you are in an atmosphere full of energy. Michael Angelakos and co really done this song perfectly, with a VMA nomination in hand for the music video, Passion Pit definitely will stay in the music industry.


3. Malino - The Trees and The Wild
Time for some cool local music! Yes this cool new indie band is very very very worth to hear. With an accoustic sound just like Kings of Convenience, TTATW gives you the most calming songs that you will ever hear from and Indonesian band. This newcomer is definitely the promosing new talent in Indonesian indie music. Their debut album 'Rasuk' will literally 'merasuki' your soul because i can't stop listening to the whole album for a month! Visit their Myspace to know more and listen to their song


4. Sweet Disposition - The Temper Trap

This song is taken from the soundtrack of 500 Days Of Summer, it features in the promo (the phot collage video) and i'm hooked by it since the first time i heard the song. The Temper Trap is also a new band and they just released their debut titled "Conditions". This song have a really great sound, with it's blisfull sound and light lyrics to remember Sweet Disposotion will get a special position in your mind.


5. Standing In The Way Of Control-The Gossip

Well this is actually an old song from 2007 ( i think) it was the anthem of Skins, the famous british television show that i've been watching this past few weeks. Poweful vocal by Beth Ditto makes this song become a poweful foot stomping punk. Perfect song to accompany you in your Saturday Night. The Gossip who is becoming more and more famous by now should put this song if they will make a greatest hits someday. I actually prefer this than the new song 'Heavy Cross', this one have more attitude to it and more powerful sound to stomp your feet and jump around like maniac.
