Sixteen going on Seventeen. Legal Day.

Who knows The Sound Of Music?
The best movie ever that starring Jullie Andrews.

Btw, there's one song that really into me right now which called 'Sixteen Going On Seventeen'.

You are sixteen going on seventeen
Nanana (ga inget)
I am seventeen going on eighteen
And I'll take care of you

I am sixteen going on seventeen
I know I'm naive
Fellows I meet
May tell me I'm sweet
And I'll willingly believe

Gue nggak inget liriknya, tapi lirik ini yangnyentuhhh.
Romantic yet catchy, a trully seventeen year old-ish.

Me, as a sixteen year old girl, feels exactly the same as the song. Well as we know, I'm turning 17 on December!!! Yippie!

I know it's still 5 months away but I CANNOT WAIT FOR IT. I've prepared some plans for my seventeen!

I think, being seventeen isn't about releasing your childhood with a big party. Being seventeen means that you're already an adult. You're legal now and you hold lots of responsible. You have to be mature, think what's the best for the future.

I'm a little bit confused with the fabulous, glamour, Mparty that some of my friend did when they hit 17. I mean, wh.y are you spending your money for a night? For just a party? It's not worth it. You don't do anything for your living! You used your parent's money for your living.  I mean, being 17 doesn't mean that you already prepare to face the world. It's just the beginning. We just stepped out of the cage. Dengan menghabiskan uang orang tua kalian hanya untuk pesta, nggak menjanjikan untuk menjadikan kalian srbagai orang ysng sukses. Lebih baik kita pke uanh itu untuk tabungan pendidikan, kalau udah sukses, baru bikin pesta gede dari uang sendiri :p

Maybe you'll think that, "Gue udah bisa menghasilkan uang sendiri kok".



But...
Isn't it great when you used your money for kindness?

Diluar sana masih banyak yang ngga seberuntung kita. Masih banyak pemuda Indonesia, khususnya daerah pinggiran yang pedidikannya jauh dari kata layak.

You what's my dream?
I dream of...
When I hit 17, I'll celebrate it with the lest fortunate kids. Maybe sama anak-anak yatim piatu, atau gue bisa ngerayainnya dengan menjadi guru buat anak jalanan ibukota yang mungkin nggak pernah rasain bangku sekolah.

Tau kenapa gue nulis kaya gini?
Anggaplah gue terlalu puitis, bahasanya berat, atau sok dibilang baik.. Ahh whatever. Cuma mencurahkan pikiran gue haha.

For me, 17 is just our first step to face the world and we shouldn't spending our money for a party while for the others, masih susah untuk sekolah.

True Colors

Lagu ini udah ada sejak gue kecil. Gue lupa siapa penyanyi aslinya, tapi yang jelas lagu ini udah di cover banyak orang. Sejak kecil gue seriiiiing banget dengerin lagu ini dimana-mana. Dan gue suka sama lagu ini. Sejak gue masih belom bisa A - B - C, Bahasa Indonesia aja masih ngaco apalagi ngerti Bahasa Inggris, gue suka lagu ini. Lagu ini tuh sesuatu. Dan gue pun akhirnya udah download lagu ini, tapi versi yang dinyanyiin Glee Cast. Terus finally juga udah tau maksud dari lagu ini. Here's the Lyric... You with the sad eyes Don't be discouraged Oh, I realize It's hard to take courage In a world full of people You can lose sight of it all And the darkness inside you Can make you feel so small But I see your true colors Shining through I see your true colors And that's why I love you So don't be afraid to let them show Your true colors True colors Are beautiful like a rainbow Show me a smile then Don't be unhappy Can't remember when I last saw

Two Worlds Collide

So I was listening to this song last night. Pretty old, it was from Demi Lovato's first album, Don't Forget. The lyrics really got me... Well probably, now I'm on Demi's phase back then when she was really insecure with her self... *** "Two Worlds Collide" She was given the world So much that she couldn't see And she needed someone to show her, Who she could be. And she tried to survive Wearing her heart on her sleeve But I needed you to believe You had your dreams, I had mine. You had your fears, I was fine. You showed me what I couldn't find, When two different worlds collide. La dee da dee da She was scared of it all, watching from far away. She was given a role, never knew just when to play. And she tried to survive Living her life on her own Always afraid of the throne But you've given me strength to find home. You had your dreams, I had mine. You had your fears, I was fine. You showed me what I couldn't find, When

Satu Dunia, Satu Tapak, Dua Rasa

Dalam gelap, seketika mata menjadi buta. Alunan musik nan lembut telinga telah tuli. Di sebuah pengungkapan, mulut seolah terjahit bisu. Dan di dalam perasaan ini, hati seketika bergejolak. Diam. Tak bergeming. Merelakan angin mencium raganya. Hanya mengamati dan menjaga. Tak berani unjuk diri untuk membela hati yang merana. Andaikan kelak bumi dan langit berjumpa, Bertemu di bentangan dunia, Apa kita dapat berhadapan di setapak yang sama? Memandang satu sama lain. Dari dekat. Menikmati waktu yang sedikit. Menghargai setiap tatapan. Peluklah hangat setiap kenangan. Kecuplah lembut setiap perjuangan. Biarkan terjadi euforia. Sorak-sorai yang menggema di seluruh pelosok. Ketika akhirnya dunia kita dipertemukan.

Is 'Sorry' Enough?

We are way too far. The days pass as we started to live our own life. Separately. And.... I hate it. I hate to admit that I miss you. I hate to realize that I was actually wrong. If only, We can turn back time. To a year when we first met. I would rekindled us. And now.... It's too late. I need to hide. I need to hide from you as far as possible. I need to hide from this mixed feelings. I need to hide from the fact that.... I am flipped. I am flipped because of you. Your gaze, your laugh, your voice... So mesmerizing I can't even lie. Those memories and my faults keep haunt me. So, before I say good bye.... Shall you forgive me? See you when I see you, my reflection.
