Big City Dreams

You say we're both little people and you like it that way
But in time I'm gonna put this body to shame and grow old
Wear a suit like my old man
Pack up all my things and get my ass outta town

We've got it good
Whether you like this town or not
I know it's small but with a big head
it's bound to get hot
In the summer
But the summer is a bummer
If you can't leave
This pathetic excuse for a town

That holds all your memories
A lifetime of crushes and your broken dreams
To be anywhere but here
But baby anywhere is away from me

And ooh, hoo
If you got it all figured out
Then what is there to shout about
This midwest town is gonna miss you

Just go ahead and work it out
But first come on and let it out
Scream it shout tell everybody that your gonna leave

In about one year you'll have it all figured out
These big city dreams are what you're about
Walking like strangers among these states
Only time will tell how long I can wait

We've got it good
Whether you like this town or not
I know it's small but with a big head
it's bound to get hot
In the summer
But the summer is a bummer
If you can't leave
This pathetic excuse for a town

That holds all your memories
A lifetime of crushes and your broken dreams
To be anywhere but here
But baby anywhere is away from me

If you got it all figured out
Then what is there to shout about
This midwest town is gonna miss you

Just go ahead and work it out
But first come on and let it out
Scream it shout tell everybody that your gonna leave

Me again oh so casually
Did you take the hit for me or the home team

If you got it all figured out
Then what is there to shout about
This midwest town is gonna miss you


Big City Dreams — Nevershoutnever!

God, I need help.

I’m always afraid of rejections.

Saya selalu takut apply macam-macam. Saya takut ditolak, bahkan sebelum saya benar-benar memutuskan untuk mendaftar apapun, entah itu sekolah, kuliah, organisasi, kepanitiaan, dan lain lain. I don’t have the confidence it would take.

I’m always the type of negative person. I’m always afraid to let myself want anything. That’s why I was always terrified when I realised I liked a guy back in my days as a highschooler. I used to avoid thinking about getting together with guys I liked, I didn’t want to let the thought be a hope. Hope, that would lead to disappointment.

Welcome again to the Westeros!

Woohooo! Game of Thrones season 3 is finally out!

Setelah nunggu-nunggu berbulan-bulan akhirnya premier juga season 3nya. Kemaren lusa saya udah nonton episode pertamanya, entitled Valar Dohaeris.
Saya nggak bakal ngasih spoiler kok. Cuma mau review sedikit saja soalnya saya agak-agak over-excited dengan mulainya season 3. Habis akhir season 2 epic sih, bikin penasaran. Apalagi scene waktu Sam ketemu White Walker yang diikutin sama serombongan zombie yang oh-my-itu-mukanya-pada-kenapa D':

Malaysia-Singapore Trip: A So-Called Travelogue Part II

Singapore!

Queen Street, Singapore bisa dicapai dengan 45-60 menit naik bis dari JB Sentral, sudah termasuk imigration check di Woodlands. Begitu masuk Singapore, saya langsung terpana. Huaaaaa bcantik banget kotanya! Metropolis, kinclong-kinclong gitu deh. I'm one lucky girl to have ever set foot in Singapore :")

Turun bis di Queen Street, saya langsung ke Bugis Street Shop (semacam Malioboro/Beringharjonya Jogja) buat beli oleh-oleh trus nyari-nyari MRT station dengan modal insting dan nanya-nanya :B Keliatannya nggak meyakinkan ya? Tapi dengan modal begitu aja saya udah bisa nyampe mana-mana loh! Tapi pada dasarnya MRT line Singapore itu emang simpel banget dan jelas jalurnya, nggak meliuk-liuk kayak jalur TransJogja :p

These pictures show you places I visited back there :)

Malaysia-Singapore Trip: A So-Called Travelogue Part I. (my first one, as I recall)

Ceritanya sih saya nulis ini gara-gara keasyikan baca blognya Trinity, jadi iseng pingin bikin semacam catatan perjalanan gitu deh. Kebetulan juga kemarin abis bolang dengan nekatnya ke Malaysia (Kualalumpur, lebih tepatnya) dan, hell, sekalian aja sih, Singapore. Lima hari (atau lebih ya? saya agak-agak lupa) pertama, saya punya travel companion, tidak lain dan tidak bukan Simbok saya sendiri. But thank God Simbok ga bisa lama-lama liburan karena emang Simbok saya lebih eksis dari saya sampe banyak yang nyariin, karena saya emang lebih suka pergi sendiri, lebih fleksibel dan nggak perlu bete karena Simbok saya rada-rada ngiwut alias ribet. Aduh ampun Mama :))

New Girl's Sweetheart: Hannah Simone

Hello :D Ever heard about Hannah Simone?

Well, she's a model, a gorgeous one, in that matter, starring in Fox's New Girl TV series as Cece. I know it might be weird for me (as a girl) to fangirl over a girl, but what the heck, what's there not to love about Hannah Simone? She's a real Indian beauty with brown skin and Indian faces, whatevs. But what I love about her most is, she's the kind of girl who takes control of her life, and not worried about what people might say.

One Cell in the Sea - A Fine Frenzy (2007)

Review, review! :D

Saya abis dengerin lagu-lagunya A Fine Frenzy. Ada yang tau ngga?

A Fine Frenzy ini adalah band yg dipimpin sama frontgirlnya, Alison Sudol. Mbak Alison ini rambutnya merah nyala kaya Hayley Williams (iye, frontgirlnya Paramore). At least waktu tahun 2007 sih, pas albumnya One Cell in the Sea keluar. Sekarang kayaknya udah dicat pirang, as seen in her third album's cover, Pines (2012).
