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!

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.

Yes and No

Chapter Five.

Page 142 of 365.

Yes and No.


Time goes by.

So slowly.


Only for those who wait, you say.


But, am i waiting for something?


Yes and No.


Yes, because i'm kind of wanting that something would happen.

No, because i really don't know what to expect.


You only scared to be hurt, you say.


Am i really scared to be hurt?


Yes and No.


Yes, because it's naturally a human being instinct to be safe.

No, because.. I mean, look at me, wanting you all this time. Nothing will hurt me more.


You are confusing dreams with love, you say.


Am i confusing myself?


Yes and No.


Yes, because somehow now i realize that you're right.

No, because i know that they're not just dreams.


So, basically you're just in love. With me.


Yes.

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.

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.

The Last Drop of The Memories.

Chapter Three.

Page 74 of 365.

The Last Drop of The Memories.


It's been a while since i spent my days being a stupid guy.

Entertaining all the sweetness in the memories i have.

Just for the sake of old times.

Just for nothing.


Now, i finally do realize.


It's not because i can't.

It's not because it's hard.

It's not because it's sweet.

It's simply because i just don't want to.


I'm grateful for what we have been through.

I'm grateful for what we almost shared.

I'm grateful for all the possibilities.

But, i'm not gonna spend the rest of my life stuck in the past.


I'm trying.

I'm trying to stop looking back.

I'm trying to start to looking forward.

Seeing new chances.

Finding new hopes.

Making new memories.

Being  a new me.


You will always be my favorite chapter in my book of life.

You will always be the answer for my duet.

You will always be my zing.


But, i know now, that you will always be just a part of my past.

The one who taught me so much to be who i am today.

The one who gave me so much smile on my face.

The one who made my heart beat fast everytime i see your name on the phone.

The one that, unfortunately, got away.


Yeah, it's hard to forget about it since you gave me so much to remember.

But i'm taking the first step.

And i'm dropping the last memory of you here.


Goodbye.
:)

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.

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.

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
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.

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.

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.

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. :)

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

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.
;)

smile (cover of charlie chaplin) - glee cast

smile though your heart is aching
smile, eventough it's breaking
when there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by
if you smile through your pain and sorrow
smile and maybe tomorrow
you'll see the sun comes shining through for you

light up your face with gladness
hide every trace of sadness
although a tear maybe ever so near
that's the time you must keep on trying
smile, what's the use of crying?
you'll find that life is still worthwhile if you just smile


lagu ini kata - katanya sederhana tapi nguatin banget. lagunya juga enak dibawainnya ama para glee cast. sederhana tapi menyentuh. best glee season 1's song.

my hero is you - hayden panettiere

You know I try to be
All that I can
But there's a part of me
I still don't understand

Why do I only see
What I don't have
When my reality
Its things are not that bad

Your faith has shown me that

When my world goes crazy
You won't let go
When the ground gets shaky
You give me hope
When I try to push you away
You never move, yeah

Now when I start doubting
You help me see
There's a strength, and a mind, and a power in me
Oh believe me thereain't nothing I can't do
My hero is you, yeah
My hero is you

I never saw the way
You sacrificed
Who knew the price you paid
How can I make it right
I know I've gotta try

When my world goes crazy
You won't let go
When the ground gets shaky
You give me hope
When I try to push you away
You never move, yeah

Now when I start doubting
You help me see
There's a strength, and a mind, and a power in me
You believe there ain't nothing I can't do
My hero is you, yeah
My hero is you

And I hope that you can see
You're everything that I wanna be, ooh

When my world goes crazy
You won't let go
When the ground gets shaky
You give me hope
When I try to push you away
You never move, yeah

Now when I start doubting
You help me see
There's a strength, and a mind, and a power in me
Oh believe me there ain't nothing I can't do
My hero is you, yeah
My hero is you

My hero is you

mymp - only reminds me of you

i see you beside me
it's only a dream
vision of what used to be

the laughters my sorrows
pictures in time
fading to memories

how could i ever let you go
is it too late to let you know

i tried to run from your side
but each place i hide
it only reminds me of you
when i turned out all the lights
even the night
it only reminds me of you

i needed my freedom
that's what i thought
but i was a fool to believe
my heart cried while you cry
rivers of tears
but i was too blind to see

all that we've been through before
now it means so much more

i tried to run from your side
but each place i hide
it only reminds me of you
when i turned out all the lights
even the night
it only reminds me of you

so come back to me
i'm down on my knees
girl can't you see


how could i ever let you go
is it too late to let you know

Maria Shandy - Ku Percaya JanjiMu

Saat Ku hancur hati
Ku datang padaMu
Kau beri kekuatan dan b'ri penghiburan
Saat tak seorangpun dapat kuandalkan
Kau yang memberi jalan
Kau yang menuntunku


Saat ku tak mengerti
Dalam hidup ini
Namun firmanMu selalu menerangiku
Engkau yang buatku kuat lewati semua
Engkau pertolonganku
Tempat harapanku

Reff :
Tuhan... kupercaya janjiMu
Dalam hidupku
Kau b'ri kemenangan

Tuhan... kau s'lalu setia
Didalam hidupku
Kau berharga bagiku
Kaulah jaminanku
Dalam hidupku

Sting - My Funny Friend and Me (OST Emperor's New Groove)

In the quiet time of evening
When the stars assume their patterns
And the day has made his journey
And we wondered just what happened
To the life we knew before the world changed
When not a thing I held was true
But you were kind to me and you reminded me
That the world is not my playground
There are other things that matter
And when a simple needs protecting (*see below)
My illusions all would shatter
But you stayed in my corner
The only world I know was upside down
And now the world and me, I know you carry me

You see the patterns in the big sky
Those constellations look like you and I
Just like the patterns in the big sky
We could be lost we could refuse to try
But we made it through in the dark night
Would those lucky guys turn out to be
But that unusual blend of my funny friend and me

I'm not as clever as I thought I was
I'm not the boy I used to be because
You showed me something different, you showed me something pure
I always seemed so certain but I was really never sure
But you stayed and you called my name
When others would have walked out on a lousy game
And you could've made it through
But your funny friend and me

You see the patterns in the big sky
Those constellations look like you and I
That tiny planet in a bigger guy
I don't know whether I should laugh or cry
Just like the patterns in the big sky
We'll be together till the end is nigh
Don't know the answer or the reason why
We'll stick together till the day we die
If I had to do this all a second time
I won't complain or make a fuss
When the angels sing that that unlikely blend
Are those two funny friends
That's us

Audy - Perempuan Ini (OST Tusuk Jelangkung)

bila di hati telah merasa
begitu pasti dengan yang ada
tak mau lagi ku cari pengganti
demi dirimu kujelang waktu

pergilah kekasihku
tinggalkanlah diriku
bila itu yang kau perlu
tuk yakinkan cintamu kepadaku

walau menangis bagai teriris
aku bertahan dengan harapan
kata hatimu akan menuntunmu
untuk kembali padaku lagi

pergilah kekasihku
tinggalkanlah diriku
bila itu yang kau perlu
tuk yakinkan cintamu kepadaku


(di test seni, gue cuma nyanyi sampe bait ini)

oh lelakiku buka mata hatimu
hanya perempuan ini
yang terbaik dan sangat sayang padamu
kata hatimu pasti menuntunmu
