Ku Diciptakan Sempurna

Chapter Seven.

Page 201 of 365.

Ku Diciptakan Sempurna.

Sebelum dunia dijadikan,

dirimu telah ada di hatiNya.

Meski manusia tak melihat,

namun engkau indah di mataNya.

Kau diciptakan sempurna,

syukuri karuniaNya.

Kau diciptakan berharga,

lebih dari yang manusia lihat.

Lihatlah dirimu dari pandanganNya,

kau diciptakan sempurna.

Tapi aku tak seperti mereka.

Mengapaku tercipta berbeda?

Mungkinkah Sang Pencipta yang salah,

aku tak seindah rencanaNya?

Kau diciptakan sempurna,

syukuri karuniaNya.

Kau diciptakan berharga,

lebih dari yang manusia lihat.

Lihatlah dirimu dari pandanganNya,

kau diciptakan sempurna.

Ku diciptakan sempurna,

syukuri karuniaNya.

Ku diciptakan berharga,

lebih dari yang manusia lihat.

Ku lihatlah diriku dari pandanganNya,

ku diciptakan sempurna.

I love surfing around the internet.

There is a huge chance for you to be amazed with some random people's talent.

And just some days ago, i found this GREAT song, made by Joshua Setia.

Listen the song here. It's worth every second of buffering!

Rumit

Chapter Seven.

Page 191 of 365.

Rumit.

RAN:

Kalau kamu memang detektif, seharusnya kamu bisa menganalisis hatiku, kan!

SHINICHI:

Kamu ini rumit, tahu!

Kamu seperti kasus rumit yang menyusahkan!

Aku terlalu banyak melibatkan emosi kalau berurusan denganmu!

Sekalipun aku Holmes, aku tidak mungkin bisa memecahkan kasus serumit kamu!

Karena tidak mungkin aku bisa membaca dengan tepat isi hati orang yang aku sukai...

Kamu..

Memang serumit sebuah kasus pembunuhan di ruang tertutup.

Kadang,

aku selalu berpikir bahwa alibimu terlalu kuat.

Untuk aku tuntut dengan tuduhan mencuri hati ini.

Kadang pula,

kamu dengan cerdiknya meninggalkan kepingan petunjuk.

Untuk aku rangkai dengan harapan aku sadar tentangmu.

Kamu..

Memang seberbahaya obat APTX 4869.

Kadang,

kamu selalu bertindak bersih tanpa meninggalkan jejak.

Seperti sang penyihir terang bulan.

Kadang pula,

kamu membabi buta seperti pembunuh bertopeng pendendam.

Seakan menikmati setiap jerit ketakutan.

Kamu..

Selalu tampak manis seperti Ran Mouri.

Dan aku..

Aku..

Harus pergi dari hidupmu, selayaknya Shinichi Kudo.

I'll Try

Chapter Seven.

Page 187 of 365.

I'll Try.


I'm not the best poet in the world.

But i'll try to make a poem, a good one.

Because of you.


I'm not the best singer in the world.

But i'll try to sing a song, a nice one.

Because of you.


I'm not the mightiest man in the world.

But i'll try to move a mountain, a big one.

Because of you.


I'm not the cutest guy in the world.

But i'll try to give you a smile, a sincere one.

Because of you.


I'm not the smartest kid in the world.

But i'll try to solve this heart question, a hard one.

Because of you.


I'm not what you want.

Neither what you need.

But i'll try.


I'll try hard.

Selalu MenyembahMu

Chapter Seven.

Page 184 of 365.

Selalu MenyembahMu.

Kaulah Allahku
Penolong dalam kesesakan jiwaku
Kau brikanku damai dan sejahtera
Yang kurindukan di dalam dunia

Kau Allah yang setia
Penjaga jiwa yang ada senantiasa
Penuntun hidupku pelita jiwaku
Kini kuhidup bagiMu

Selalu menyembahMu
Jadikan diriMu tempat pertamaku
Biarpun gelombang datang dalam hidupku
Ku tau Engkau slalu besertaku

Sampai slama-lamanya
MenyenangkanMu itulah rinduku
Jadikanku penyembahMu
Yang taat kepadaMu

Selamanya

Selamanya

Selamanya
Seumur hidupku

This is a song by 3PM band. You can listen the indonesian version, with the lyrics above, here.

Oh, and there is an english version by the City Harvest Church, watch it here.

Have a great day and be blessed. :)

No Greater Love

Chapter Seven.

Page 182 of 365.

No Greater Love.


No greater love.

Than a love that sets you free.

No greater love.

Than a love that gives you hope.

No greater love.

No greater love.


When you feel alone,

and on your own,

just look up above.

There is love, there is love.


When you cry for help,

and no one heard,

you can always cope.

There is hope, there is hope.


No greater love.

Than a love that makes you sing.

No greater love.

Than a love that hold you close.

No greater love.

No greater love.


No greater love in this world.

No greater love i can ever feel.

No greater love, no greater love.

My Prayer, Only You

Chapter Six.

Page 167 of 365.

My Prayer, Only You.


For every moment like this,

i'm thanking God for you.

For every laughter you give me,

And for every tear of joy.


For every moment like this,

i know that you're special.

For every moment that we have shared,

And the ones that we're going to make.


I'm so grateful that i have you.

I'm so grateful that you love me.

From the bottom of my heart i sing for you,

My prayer for you, only you.


I know that life isn't fair at all.

And i know that i might be down.

But you will always have that something for me,

Your faithful prayer for me, for me.

Okay, Now What?

Chapter Five.

Page 149 of 365.

Okay, Now What?


You're waiting for your whole life for this moment.

You're working your ass off to be in this position.

All the hard work, all the sweat, and all the tear.

You finally got what you're longing for.


...


Okay, now what?


Well, it doesn't feel like it.

It doesn't feel like what you thought it would feel.

Umm, okay, this is weird.


Now you are already at the top of the world.

Being a winner.

Wearing the victor's crown.

An undefeatable champion.

So, now what?


Hey, you're supposed to know that it's all alone at  the top.

But, enjoy the solitude!

Isn't it what you're always praying for?


...


Okay, now what?

Blank Pages

Chapter Five.

Page 147 of 365.

Blank Pages.


There are blank pages scattered all around the floor.

They are not going to be filled with the sweet words, like they used to.

A sweet temptation over a sinful delight.


There are blank pages scattered all around the floor.

They are wasted, just like the times we had spent on us.

A rubbish on a trash can.


There are blank pages scattered all around the floor.

They are empty and plain white, just like the way they should be.

A purity lies on a  fake feeling.


There are blank pages scarttered all around the floor.

Just as much as the blank pages on my memories of you.

Moving on, moving on.

For The Fairest

Chapter Five.

Page 128 of 365.

For The Fairest.

A smile, for the fairest.

Sincerely presented when you were introducing me to your loved one.

Patheticly made up to pretend that i'm not hurt at all.

A laugh, for the fairest.

Heartily came out as you were talking to me, only me.

Painfully continued when i realized who you are talking about.

A stare, for the fairest.

Bashfully given from me to you whenever you catch me staring at you.

Filled with jealousy anytime you are holding that hand, not this hand.

A heart, for the fairest.

Carefully wrapped with all my sincerity and tears.

Subtly rejected with your sweetest smile.

A love, for the fairest.

Patiently kept in this pieces of heart.

Puzzled: Calypso's Song.

Chapter Five.

Page 126 of 365.

Puzzled: Calypso's Song.


What's right, what's wrong?

What's good, what's bad?

What's white, what's black?


If being with you is wrong, then i don't wanna be right.

If having you around is bad, then i don't want no good.

If our love is painted black, i will hate white for the rest of my life.


But, i'm not really sure of it.


You are worth fighting for but i don't want to hurt anyone.

You are a beautiful view to my heart but i can't stand seeing you hurt like this.

We make a great couple but you will be greater without me.


I can't help it, i'm addicted to you, my temporary bliss.


I will do anything for you.

I'm throwing away my faith just to call you mine.

I'm betraying God just to hold you close.


But i know it couldn't be like this.


I was designed to be alone.

It was my curse to feel hurt.

I deserve this pain somehow.


But, for once in my life, i claim my happiness before them.

But, is this right?


Screw them, i don't care what's right.

I only care about you.

Imagining You

Chapter Four.

Page 113 of 365.

Imagining You.


Am i crazy?

They said, crazy people are the ones who imagine things when there's actually nothing there.

So, am i crazy?


I know you're there.

So, please, answer me.


Am i crazy?

They said, crazy means doing the same thing over and over again but expecting a different result.

But, i'm not crazy, aren't i?


Please, this time only.

Answer me, i know you're listening.


I know you're there.

I know you are the one who wake me up everyday.

The one that watch me silently through the night.

The one who soothe me up when i catch a nightmare.

The one who cheer me up when i'm down.

The one who are listening to every word that i say but yet just stand there silently.


I know you care.

I know you still do.

Remember when things were in colors?

When every sound is a love song and every taste is sweet?


I know i'm not crazy because i know you're there.

So, please, talk to me like we used to.

And tell me that i'm not imagining you.

Unfaithfully, Yours.

Chapter Four.

Page 109 of 365.

Unfaithfully, Yours.


...

Umm, yes, where were we?

Oh, yes, you were talking about your new bag.

Oh, new bags.

Yes, it is interesting.

...


Those eyes.

Those smile.

They should not attract me.

Well, it is not attracting.

It's tempting me.


Ah, yes, dear.

Oh, okay.

Yes, you have to tell me more after you go to toilet.


"You're bored."

It's not a question, it's a statement.

You're like a mind reader, you know.

A cute mind reader.


"Is it obvious?"

"There is no guy could stand this kind of conversation."

"Unfortunately, she didn't aware of that."

"Oh, you must love her so much, you listen her patiently."


No, i'm not listening to her.

I'm mesmerized by you.

...

How do you define love?

Is it a feeling that grows over time?

Or a butterfly-in-the-stomach feeling at the first sight?

Is it only for a special person?

Or you can love two people at the same time?

I don't know.

What i know now is,

i love you.

And her.

Whenever i see her smile, i'm happy.

As happy as when i hear your laughter.

Whenever i hold her hand, i'm happy.

As happy as when i hold your hand behind her.

Are we wrong for being happy?

Do we always have to be right to be happy?

Do we choose whom we get to love? 

Isn't love is a grace, something we don't deserve to have but we receive it anyway?

She may be holding my hand but you are holding my heart.

Writer's note:

This post is inspired by a song made by a talented guy named Gregory Sukamto and sang beautifully by Chassya Andryska. Listen here.

Tears Patter

Chapter Three.

Page 68 of 365.

Tears Patter.

For anyone who try to send away their love to someone who just gone away,

hey, this one's for you, guys.

Here, i stand alone.

Smile.

And pretending you are here.


Far, you are too far.

Wave.

And tell me everything's okay.


The tears patter, the only explanation of this longing feeling.

The tears patter, painfully starting this song for you.

No matter how much i beg, you were already gone.

And leaving with this tears patter.


Hard, this is too hard.

Cry.

I just can cry every night.



The tears patter, the only thing left from your sweet memories.

The tears patter, tell me how much i miss you.

No matter how much i beg, you were already gone.

And leaving with this tears patter.

Pass, this too shall pass.

Hope.

Hoping the tears will run dry.

Walk On Water - Tim Hwang

Unanswered questions I look
but nothing here.
This searching of what
I am becoming isn’t clear
but You never give me up.

All my failures and all the mess I make
can never separate me
from the love You give. Your plan has no mistakes.

I hear Your voice
and that’s enough for me to rise again.
I will rejoice, in perfect strength I gain

Even through the storms
and crashing waves,
the goodness of my God will keep me safe so I’m taking steps on the water
for Your hand is holding me.

Every move I make will testify
Your miracles that none can deny
so I’m taking steps on the water.
I no longer am afraid. You are with me.

All my failures and all the mess I make
can never separate me
from the love You give.
Your plan has no mistakes.

Even through the storms
and crashing waves,

Every move I make will testify
Your miracles that none can deny
so I’m taking steps on the water.
I no longer am afraid. You are with me.

Jesus, You wipe the tears away.
Now I see, it’s a brand new day.
Jesus, You are the only way.
I’ll trust and obey.

Even through the storms
and crashing waves,
the goodness of my God will keep me safe

Hello, readers.

Just a quick post today.

I want to tell you that..

I finally made a soundcloud account! Hahaha.

Push that follow button and i'll follow you back.

Here's my profile.

I had posted three sounds.

First, a live duet between me and Katherine on her church in 2010.
We sang Juru Selamatku by True Worshippers / Ruth Sahanaya.
Take time to hear her beautiful voices here.
Her voice is no joke.
Please listen until the end, my favorite part starts at 04:17 till the end.
Hahaha.

The second is my acoustic solo version of the same song.
I recorded it when i have a sorethroat so i went a little lower.
Here is the sound.

The last one is Through It All by Hillsong.
Well, i recorded it in the same day with Juru Selamatku Acoustic version so it's kinda.. Rough.
Hahaha. Well, take a second to comment. Listen here.

Fell free to follow me at soundcloud and twitter!

Cheers!

Dear My Family - SM Artist

Hey, guys.

I just wanna share this video for you.

Just watch the video even though you don't speak Korean.

This 5 minutes video has successfully made me appreciate my family more and give me a courage through some hard times since i first heard this song.

There will always be some people who always love you, always understand you, always give you courage and simply always be there for you.

They are your family and friends.

Take a time to say thanks for your family and friends.

Tell them how much you love them.

Don't take them for granted.

Dear my family..

Thank you. :)

Dedicated for my family, The Gouws and DATE Apartemen Semanggi 2.

8 Best Korean Ballad Songs (Part One)

Despite of the language barrier, these are some of the ballad songs that i found perfectly to be heard when you are driving in the rain alone. What makes it perfect, even if you're not speaking Korean, you still can grab the inner feelings of the song once you heard it. Okay, get some tissue because these songs are the ultimate teardropper.

8. Lonely – 2NE1

This song tells aboout the loneliness of one side in a relationship while they are still being together. No matter how hard you try to keep the fire on, the feeling seems like has faded away with time. Eventhough i haven’t felt the real connection with the song, this is a song that many people can relate to, if they were honest with themselves.

Best lyric part (in English translation):

Baby, i’m sorry, eventhough with you, i’m lonely.

7. Dear Mom – Girls’ Generation / SNSD

I never thought if it possible to fall in love with 9 girls at one time but after hear this song, i bet you will instantly love them. This song tells us about a grown up girl, living all alone by herself but she found that she is as she is now because of her mother that always love her unconditionally. Sing it at the Mother’s Day and it will make your mom cries, for sure, even though she doesn’t get the lyrics. Oh, the best part of the song is that Yuri got a whole verses to sing!

Best lyric part:

Though I’ve made hurtful wrong choices, you silently watched over me from behind (This is Yuri’s part, by the way).

6. No Matter How I Think About It – Sweet Sorrow

This song maybe sound familiar to you if you play Audition AyoDance or watch Running Man. This song was sung by Sweet Sorrow, a four male group that may not as famous as Super Junior yet but they definitely can sing!

Best lyric part:

If i just be a little more honest I’m in the point that hurts too much, the point that i look at you with the lonely eyes.

5. One Man – Kim Jong Kook

Okay, first of all, he is like the best ballader of Korean singers. Second of all, this song expresses collective souls of guys that can’t tell their feelings to their beloved ones but already happy seeing them from afar. No need for further explanation. If you can’t relate to this song, you are either a robot or just plain dumbfounded.

Best lyric part:

There’s a girl who doesn’t know i’m like this. Who receives love but don’t know that it is love.

4. Mistake – Girls’ Generation / SNSD

Eventhough they are famous for their dance songs, SNSD has some good ballads to listen to. I posted the lyric of the demo version, originally titled Watching Over Me, some days ago. Another surprise, though Yuri only get a single line in this song, the lyric is written by her! This after break-up song tells us about a girl that humbly admits that the break up was because of her who is lacking of anything.

Best lyric part:

I knew i couldn’t have you but my love for you just kept growing.

3. A Girl Meets Love – K Will & Tiffany Hwang

This is not a song. It’s a story about a young girl and a man that love each other, told in a perfect musical way. Epic. Way too epic. Tiffany and K Will should sing more often together. Can’t even imagine anyone sings this better than them but i would give Yuri a shot.

Best lyric part:

I know I’m bad but I can’t let you go. Let me have your name and the memories of you.

2. You Wouldn’t Answer My Calls – 2AM

2AM might not be as famous as their dongsaengs, 2PM, but if it comes to quality, you have to agree that they sound better than Taecyeon and gangs. The only thing that bad of this song is the music video. They should have made it simpler because the song is already strong on its own. This song is about regret, regret, and much regret, something that we all can always relate to often.

Best lyric part:

No matter how I beg for forgiveness, there’s already no use.

1.      Tears Are Falling – Shin Jae

This is it. Best of the best. This song sums up my and many people’s emotion perfectly. Do you know that feelings of being happy and sad at the same time? Happy, because you get the one you love by your side. Sad, because the one that you love will never be yours. And when you cry, those are the most painful tears you ever had for someone.. If you read this and imagine of someone.. Yes, the one that you love.. :’)

Best lyric part:

Tears are falling again because i want to see you. I choked on my tears, I swallowed the words that i love you.

watching over me - jenny hyun (snsd's original demo of mistake)

When we said our last goodbye 
There was so much still on my mind 
But I kept it all inside

The world can be a crazy place 
You forget all the things you want to say 
And let the moment slip away 

How I wish that I have time to make you see 
How everything you did
It really mattered to me 

You always told me that I should never let up 
Hold my head up high 
You always told me that I should never give up 
Reach for the sky 
Said you’ll be looking out for me 
No matter what we’re going to be 
Are you out there now? 
Watching over me.. 

So many times I long to see you 
To just pick up the phone and call you 
So we could talk like we used to
 
I wonder what you think of me now 
Even though I’m still trying to figure it out 
I wonder if I make you proud 

How I wish that I have time to make you see 
How everything you did
It really mattered to me 

You always told me that I should never let up 
Hold my head up high 
You always told me that I should never give up 
Reach for the sky 
Said you’ll be looking out for me 
No matter what we’re going to be 
Are you out there now? 
Watching over me.. 

Never the one to misunderstand 
Never the one to hold back your hand (day after day) 
Stood by me day after day 
Made me believe I’ll find my way 
Are you out there now? 
Are you out there now?
 
You always told me I should never let up 
Hold my head up high (hold my head up high) 
You always told me that I should never give up (wish you are still be my side) 
Reach for the sky 
Said you’ll be looking out for me (say you’ll be looking out for me) 
No matter what we’re going to be (oohhh yeah) 
Are you out there now? 
Watching over me.. 

Oh, yes you are 
You are out there now 
Watching over me 

temporary home - carrie underwood

Little boy, 6 years old
A little too used to bein' alone.
Another new mom and dad, another school,
Another house that will never be home.
When people ask him how he likes this place, he looks up and says, with a smile upon his face,

"This is my temporary home
It's not where I belong.
Windows and rooms that I'm passin' through.
This is just a stop, on the way to where I'm going.
I'm not afraid because I know this is my
Temporary Home."

Young mom on her own.
She needs a little help, got nowhere to go.
She's lookin' for a job, lookin' for a way out,
Because a half-way house will never be a home.
At night she whispers to her baby girl,
"Someday we'll find our place here in this world."

"This is our temporary home.
It's not where we belong.
Windows and rooms that we're passin' through.
This is just a stop, on the way to where we're going.
I'm not afraid because I know this is our
Temporary Home."

Old man, hospital bed,
The room is filled with people he loves.
And he whispers, "Don't cry for me,
I'll see you all someday."
He looks up and says, "I can see God's face."

"This is my temporary Home
It's not where I belong.
Windows and rooms that I'm passin' through.
This was just a stop,on the way to where I'm going.
I'm not afraid because I know this was
My temporary home."

get it right

hey, readers!

hari ini gue dapet lagu yang keren banget. lagu ini dari serial glee. gue suka banget ama serial tv ini karena ceritanya bagus dan pesennya juga bagus. lagu yang dicover juga pasti jadi bagus. ada lagu yang mau gue bagiin liriknya disini. judulnya get it right, dari episode 16 di season 2 yang bakal tayang tanggal 15 maret di us. gue dapet dari salah satu web file sharing gitu. hehe. maaf ya, abis gak sabaran pengen denger. :p

lagu ini salah satu dari dua lagu original glee. biasanya mereka cover lagu yang udah terkenal tapi di season 2, ada dua lagu asli dari mereka. get it right itu lagu ballad yang keren deh. yang nyanyi lea michele in role of rachel berry. ceritanya ini tentang si rachel berry sendiri, yang gue rasa kita semua pernah jadi seorang rachel berry sesekali. rachel berry itu orangnya ambisius, pengen populer, dan kadang egois. niatnya yang baik kadang ends up jadi masalah. dia tokoh utama yang aneh kalo kata gue. biasanya tokoh utama kan menang terus, baik terus tapi dia enggak. ada saatnya dia egois, ada saatnya dia belain temennya, ada saatnya dia dibully. anyway, here's the song lyric:

what have i done?
i wish i could away from this ship goin' under.
just tryin' to help, hurt everyone.
now, i feel the weight of the world is on my shoulders.

(*) what can you do when your good isn't good enough?
when all that you touch tumbles down?
because my best intentions keep making a mess of things.
i just wanna fix it somehow.
but how many times will it take?
or how many times will it take for me to get It right?

can i start again with my faith shaken?
because i can't go back and undo this.
i just have to stay and face my mistakes.
but if i get stronger and wiser, i'll get through this.

so, i throw up my fist.
i will punch the air.
and accept the truth that sometimes life isn't fair.
yeah, i'll send out a wish.
i'll send up a prayer.
and finally, someone will see how much i care!

itu lirik lagunya. how touchy. coba deh, dibaca 2-3 kali dulu. ;)

kadang- bukan kadang malah, seringnya- kita jadi rachel berry. kita berusaha good in our own way tapi salah terus. maksud kita baik tapi jadinya malah a gigantic mess banget. kita ngerasa down banget, kita ngerasa cape salah terus. kita terus menerus nanya: harus berapa kali sampe gue bisa bener? sound familiar? :)

satu hal yang gue kagumi dari tokoh rachel berry adalah dia gak mudah patah semangat. di glee, rachel itu awalnya digambarin over pede walaupun emang talented dan ambisius. tapi makin ke depan, keliatan kalo dia itu care sama temennya juga. ada saat dia harus rela nanggung semuanya demi temennya, ada saatnya di-slushied cuma karena dia mau stand out.

gue belajar banyak hal dari glee. bagaimana 'menulikan' kuping kita dari apa yang orang bilang terutama. kalo selama yang mereka bilang itu cuma bikin sakit hati, gue rasa itu gak worthy buat didenger. dan juga mengampuni. ketika kita disakitin, mengampuni bukan cuma say i forgive you tapi juga gak membales, gak ngutuk dalem hati. ;)

be blessed.
;)
