A Flower Blooming in the Slums

Yeah, that's the song from Crisis Core :D
Hmm, when listening to that song, I always think of her - again, and again.
I always think that she's really that flower, blooming in the "slums"....

Go Out and Set the World on Fire!

Yeah, that's my graduation theme. The fire here doesn't mean the "real fire" (otherwise, it's not good for the anti-Global Warming movement ;) ) but rather the fire of the Holy Spirit!
I'm very happy with my graduation: A good score, good friends(not great pizza though, no pizza there :P), what else? I'm really really happy with it. Maybe this kind of graduation can only happen once in a lifetime...

tkatki - the Indonesian online riddle!

Well, there's a good riddle site named tkatki.net, which is a bit like notpron, but maybe it's easier.
http://thewalkthrough-tkatki.blogspot.com/ is a pretty good walkthrough, but at this time it only contains the walkthrough from level 1 through 10. It's a new blog, and new game, so what do you expect? :D

Officially Dating!

Yeah, June 11th, 2008 is the happiest day of my life, where I finally have a girlfriend ^o^
Well, maybe she's not as good looking as my past favourites, but she's kind, and... I just love her^^
I hope our relationship can last eternally! :D

Ahh, Holiday

Finally it's holiday...........
There isn't anything I can do, really, in this holiday except practicing for school performance and making that stupid KUMON homework.

Working on A New Title! :D

Currently I'm working on a new song, entitled Valete. It's Latin, the meaning is "Farewell".
Another song is Liberi Rhythmus(I hope the grammar isn't wrong), meaning "Children of Rhythm" - A synonym to Kidz in Beat. It's going to be Kidz in Beats' first [and I hope, last] theme song!
I hope everything goes well for my last performance....

Valete, Liberi Rhythmus!

Well... Maybe no one can read this - but I really plan to... leave this choir....

December 2008 would be my last task with this choir, as I will move to the St. Mary Regina choir of my own neighborhood.

So... my last projects for this choir would be:
- CONCERTO de KIDZ IN BEAT version FITHOS
- Project ZERO (details in my friendster blog)
- Theme of Kidz in Beat (the hardest project!)

After that.... goodbye, all beats! Miss ya! T_T

Final Test: Round Two!

Round two? It's time for Social studies and Jakarta's life education!
Social studies isn't a very annoying subject, but the useless Jakarta's life education shouldn't be tested in my opinion.
Jakarta's life education's lessons, other than how to make a civilian's card - KTP, in Indonesian, are nothing but a RUBBISH!

As Clear as the Blue Water

The pure,
The cleansing,
Yet affected by gravity,
Flowing like a living wind.

Through the rocks,
And with powerful force,
Breaking every obstacle,
That dares to come through.

When the moon shows her face,
Enlightening the whole surface,
Appears in the dreary night,
Full of light, blindingly bright.

Yet when the sun appears,
The beauty persists,
Like the stars falling down from the sky,
Still full of light, and blindingly bright.

The blue water of the mountain,
The source of every happiness fountain,
The lifestream of the world,
Peaceful, calming, yet strong.

Who is the person I described in this poem? :D

A Lovely Roadshow!

Wonder why I put the quotation marks for the word lovely? Here's why...
Yesterday's roadshow was fun! Although my friends didn't come(ORANGE! WHERE ARE YOU?), but I had a good time back then.

My group is a quite good group, they want to share their stories while they are studying in Kumon, drawing their dreams... or even laugh at my unplanned jokes (11 years!). Well, none of them are from English program, so I had to share my story at Kumon English unwillingly (well... it doesn't quite useful no?).

As for the completers themselves... (wonder why my spelling checker doesn't recognize "completers"?) they're a basket of good friends. While I don't know just everything about them, they want to talk to me.... and, at some time, we laughed out loud (L-O-L) together because of...well..... something funny(or not), and all that. They're friendlier than my friends at school - my friends at school are cold, keeps callin' me weird.... just because I AM different. Of course I love to play, I don't like to study that much.... They just don't seem to... accept me. Very different, huh?

And the best part of this roadshow... I am the only team leader that gets to share a team with another team leader - because I had no team member at all! I shared a team with my friend from Kumon Maleo Bintaro Jaya - that is, Tari(whom, if you read at my post before this, I like so much - even typing her name needs more than 10 seconds for me). A dumb luck, and a lucky coincidence. Wow, I can't describe my feelings at that time... When I sat just one seat apart from her(well that's not directly beside her), I feel a kind of bliss pouring to my heart. Just looking at her face makes my smile.... and it's like she gave me the power to speak about my dreams (YAY! MY DRAWING IS BETTER THAN YOU! MWAHAHAHAHA.... oops, back to the post), my story, and all. Yeah.... I love her so much that - I can't stop thinking about her, day and night, when I'm studying, and anytime....

Enough about love, continue on with the roadshow. After the roadshow, I got an envelope from Adhi (the first completer? no?), which contains a thank-you-letter and... guess what? money! Wow, I never dreamed of being payed that much (don't want to tell how much :D) for just speaking for about 2 hours! But that's that.... and it already happened.
So... for the KCC Indonesia, I am waiting for another activities from you :D

Yes! Just one more round....

Just another round of annoying Final Tests, and we're done! *Say hooray!!!!!*
The final set of Final Tests would be quite tough... especially the Social Studies one. I. DEFINITELY. DON'T. LIKE. SOCIAL. STUDIES!

Although I'm quite good in memory games, I hate lessons that needs a mere memory... like Civic Studies and Social Studies, but yeah, I've got to try it!

And by the way.... tomorrow I'll go to the J-CAMP: KUMON COMPLETER'S CLUB ROADSHOW! I'm thinking about tomorrow all the time.... I think it'll be fun! Especially with my favourite girl also participating in that show as a completer(Tari, if you read this, have mercy on me :D)... wouldn't that be great? Can't wait 'til tomorrow...

Maybe that's for now? I can't write anything else, I think :D

Happily Ever.... FASTER.

Yeah. Happily ever faster.....
So, yesterday, my whole family went to somewhere near Meruya - to pay visit to ONE of my grandfathers... I sure have lots of grandfathers. The problem is I don't know them all. Oh, whatever.

There, after the blah-blahs and eating, I played with my cousins - a boy and a girl *almost typed nephew and niece*, the earlier now at grade 7, the latter at grade 8.

Guess what?

We played like crazy... photographing everything.. playing cards like mad... laughing hard 'til my stomach aches.... et cetera.

That was the craziest family event I've ever attended!

National Final Examination: Day One

Day One has passed!
It's Indonesian, and the test was really damn easy.
Well, I am confident that I can get a good score, about 80-90 for that test.
Tomorrow's math, my specialty, so...
Government, show me what you got!

Countdown: 6 Days to Final Examination(and extermination...)

Well it's 6 days before national Final Examination! But I have to say something about this: By some students in Indonesia, the final examination really becomes their final extermination.
They are not supported by good educational facilities, so it's almost impossible for them to get the score.
How unnerving...

Yay to Mr. Trihandoko!!

All hail Mr. Trihandoko!! He's just set up his new blog, http://trihandoko.blogspot.com/ , which is very useful to us, 9th grade students. His latest post uploaded the questions for the Pra-UAN in our school, complete with the answers. This blog is very useful for those who wanted to learn Physics deeper... or the remedial-infested folks :P
Just check it out, and you'll see why I'm praising this blog!

That Roy Suryo attacks again!

"What's the buzz? Tell me what's happening.."

What's the buzz in April? Other than April Fool's day, of course!
Well.. our current buzz is.... that the f***ing Roy Suryo has blocked Indonesian's access to these following websites:

• MySpace
• Rapidshare
• Multiply
• MetaCafe

And worse.... YouTube.

All these blockings are caused by one short film entitled "Fitna". Fitna is a documentation about... well... I should say.... the fanatic Moslems(apology to you all).

Okay, that's the buzz in April! Stay tuned for more buzz!

I've Never Had Someone, That Knows Me Like You Do...

"I've never had someone that know me like you do...
The way you do..."

Oh yeah, a quote from What I've Been Looking For may have been enough to picture my situation right now...
So, I'm really close to this girl right now and...
I don't know what to do.

I DO love her but...
I just don't know how to....

A Visit to Janet's

Wondering about the title? Nope, she's not my girlfriend :D
In fact, she's just one of Kidz in Beat's old member.

From the news I've heard yesterday, she was a victim of an accident: she was hit by a motorcycle.

And she did not remember anything about that.

Her brother (name's Larry), as told by their mother was crying at the very place Janet was hit.

Fortunately... she's OK... and... nothing terrible hapenned to her and... most importantly, her memory is safe.

Well... get well soon, Janet! We'll see you at the next meeting!

When Your FAMILY Starts to be REALLY Annoying

Oh well, can you imagine one unfortunate day where you're late for school, then you can't get a chair to sit because they're all gone, and while chatting and listening to music and demands privacy your brother wants to get inside the room where you are, and then you locked the room, then your grandma went mad then called your mother who scolded you and terrorize you for just EVERYTHING from your past and present?
THAT'S ANNOYING!

Really, I used the key just to change my clothes but for today, I'm tired, I want the privacy, I want it ALL!!

Luckily with a little bit of argument-and a nice cold bath I can settle up with my mother, she's really a kind type of person.... first she's mad and then, the next few hours if I had settled up with her, she's not.

But my grandma... well I admit that I frequently shouted at her as she repeated the same question and/or orders over and over, but that's a right huh? I do accept when she's angry, but NOT LIKE THIS!

I DO love myh grandma, she's a good chef, really(though recently her dishes started to be bitter)...

SO PLEASE, STOP BEING REALLY ANNOYING! I'M A 9TH GRADER AND I NEED EVERYTHING REALLY QUIET FOR ME TO ENJOY MYSELF... PLEASE! I'M TIRED! I NEED A REST!

A Holiday that Doesn't Feel Like Holiday!

This easter holiday really doesn't feel like holiday! During the day I kept thinking about undone assignments, tasks, and that stressed me out!

Oh God, please help me out of this distress!

I Don't Know How To Love Her

Really a big problem for me these days...
I'm feeling that..
History will repeat itself.
What I did a year ago, April 26th, 2007..
must not be repeated!

Really, I'm really interested in this girl but-
Well...
I don't know how to love her...

~To be continued~

Happy New Year!

Happy new year everyone! New year, new hope, but means that our life span is running shorter.

Gotta do some projects here in January 2008 - My website task must be finished soon, start teaching again tomorrow, project "Bop to the Top" (details soon), and final examination!

Oooh, damn! This is crazy! But I'm happy this year!
