Let’s Stay Together
Al Green
(Al Green - Willie Mitchell - Al Jackson)

I, I’m so in love with you
Whatever you want to do
Is all right with me
‘Cause you make me feel so brand new
And I want to spend my life with you

Since, since we’ve been together
Loving you forever
Is what I need
Let me be the one you come running to
I’ll never be untrue

Let’s, let’s stay together
Lovin’ you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad

Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad

Why, why some people break up
Then turn around and make up
I just can’t see
You’d never do that to me (would you, baby)
Staying around you is all I see
(Here’s what I want us to do)

(repeat to fade):
Let’s, we oughta stay together
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad

Each Day Gets Better…huhuhu :)

EACH DAY GETS BETTER by John Legend

Where do we go, who knows?
But each day gets better
I just can’t let her go, oh no
Each kiss gets sweeter
I just can’t leave her, no

I’ll write a song
I thought about it for far too long
But I’ve never had someone to sing about
Until I met her, now each day gets better
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody else understands me like she
Now that I know what true love means
I just hope she stays with me

Where do we go, who knows?
But each day gets better
I just can’t let her go, oh no
Each kiss gets sweeter
I just can’t leave her, no

She wants to breathe
She wants to be where the grass is green
She wants to know how love’s supposed to be
She wants it better, I want to let her know
She belongs right here with me
She’s heard it all but I’ll make her see
I’ll make her fall, make her believe
I’ll promise her that I’ll never leave

Where do we go, who knows?
But each day gets better
I just can’t let her go, oh no
Each kiss gets sweeter
I just can’t leave her, no

I just had to write a song about her
Tell her I don’t want to live without her
Tell her I would build my world around her
Deeper and deeper, sweeter and sweeter
I’ll never leave her alone

Where do we go, who knows?
But each day gets better
I just can’t let her go, oh no
Each kiss gets sweeter
I just can’t leave her, no

Flash News: Moi :)

well..well..let’s see…udah lama benerr yaa gak nulis blog? doski udah virgin lagi kali nih saking udah lama gak dibuka (efek kerja di Cosmo emang begitu..otak gue gak jauh2 seputaran itu jadinyaa)…as I mentioned before, that damn friendster just erased all the details in my main page..sucks banget yaa..? tapi yaa emang gue udah hampir setahun juga gak pernah ganti profile itu, jadinya emang udah saatnya diganti..MENGAPA? nah ini pertanyaan besarnya….permisi ya mas yaa :)
it all started about a couple of months ago (tepatnya sih gue tahu, 6-10 maret, tapi yaa anggep aja gue gak ngitungin banget) bertemulah daku dengan seorang pria…. yang keberadaannya cukup terlihat dari sekitar 35 pria lainnya…. Awalnya emang gak merhatiin..cuman kok feeling gue ngerasa nih cowok ngeliatin gueee terus..di resto lah, lagi di jalan pas liputan, kok sepertinya ada sepasang mata yang sedang mengawasi? ternyata bener aja..di hari tragedi gue gak jadi nyeberang ke bali (damn!..ya aada hikmahnya lah!) inbox HP penuh degan satu nomor baru yang sampe tengah malam, terus menerus berbalas SMS…sangat menyenangkan “ngobrol” via SMS sama dia…. lucunya, pas ketemu muka, sok2an gak kenal.>! hahhaha lucuuuu banget! yaa gue ikutan aja aturan mainnya..toh gue minoritas di lingkungan para jurnalis pria ini…

Mulailah hari-hari gue berikutnya diisi dengan SMS, email, dan telpon dari doski…. “Hmmmm, menarik juga nih ngobrol sama cowok yang satu ini,” dalam hati. Lucunya, dia bisa ngerti mengenai sifat gue yang rada aneh, dan sepertinya tidak bisa ditolerir sama cowok lainnya. Yaaa, saya si keras kepala dan tidak mau ngalah, dan si tukang makan. Walau ada kalanya berbeda pendapat sampe keukeuh2an, tapi ending-nya tetep bisa enak. Yaa, nothing works as we planned, though. Meskipun sedikit rocky road di awal, tapi ternyata bisa juga tetep jalan bareng. Well, gue sih ngerasain akhirnya gimana rasanya disayangin sama orang, tanpa harus banyak berkata-kata. Yang bisa dilihat dari perbuatannya ke gue. So sweet, so nice, so tender. Hahaha sounds lame but it’s true. I know we still have more rocky roads ahead, but at least for now, let me just say… Makasih yaaaaaaaaaaaaaa say :)

Terus menerus jadi soundtrack gue..kenapa ya?

SOON by Moonpools & Caterpillars

o its said and done
o im not the only one
how was i to know
no one told me so

i just landed here and struggled to get by
nothing much to see
oh so naive
and then it hit me like it has 1,000 times

one day soon its gonna happen to you
and when it does it wont be pretty
one day soon its gonna happen to you
and when it does…i wont be there

o its said and done
o im not the only one
how was i to see
the only difference is me
to think that holding steady hands would do just fine

one day youll agree
that you are truer to yourself than
anyone of us will ever be

Again..and again…you were there

February 1st, 2007 by galuhgirl

Damn, I wish I could scream as loud as I could right now! Man, it’s been over a year. And Yes, I saw you…..again. God, why I can’t get you off my mind? Damn, I wish I could just kick your balls and get over with this madness! FYI, I was shaking when I saw you last week. Again, I couldn’t say a word… not even a single word. I just turned my back away, and weaken myself to the knees. Why seeing you still affect me? It’s killing me! You’re just like me, only in different gender. I know why u didn’t say hello, same thing with me, man! Just give me a way, one way to get over you, please! Yes, if you read this, it may sounds crazy, as this thing IS driving me crazy. But it keep ringing again..and again…and again… arrghhhhh….

PS: FYI, the above msg is actually for Mr. F. So, if you’re not him, pls ignore this msg. And if by any chance we met last year then… yeah… Hi again, then :) How are you? hihi

Subjetivitas gue ajahhh

December 6th, 2006 by galuhgirl

Gila..Gila..Gila!!

This world has really turn into a mad house. Gue sekarang layaknya lagi duduk di bangku taman, mengamati dunia yang lagi berjalan di sekitar gue. Gue… sebagai orang ketiga yang dikasih liat permasalahan yang dijalanin sama orang2 sekitar gue, senang maupun terpaksa… mereka ngejalaninnya. Permasalahan yang kadang bikin gue sampe gak habis pikir, "kok bisa sih itu kejadian?" Masalah yang pandangan subjektif gue menolak mentah-mentah buat diterima, karena hal yang sepertinya….. gak mungkin gue lakuin.

Kadang gue berpikir… emang segitu susahnya yaa menjadi orang baik? Gak usah yang muluk2 kayak ngeberantas kemiskinan atau nuntasin kelaparan dunia. Sesuatu yang lo mulai dari dalam diri lo, dari hati lo. Yang sangat simple banget. NIAT yang baik dan tulus… Mungkin lo bilang, "Gue gak niat jahat kok, Gal…cuman proses yang eventually ngebuat gue harus jahat" Okay, itu subjektivitas yang masih bisa gue terima, asalkan bukan sebagai dalih pembelaan diri.

Ada kalanya gue pengen tau apa yang ada dipikiran orang, jadi gue bisa ngerti, dan nerima dalihnya berbuat (yang menurut gue) jahat… tau apa yang ada diseluk beluk memorinya, ada diposisinya setepat2nya, tanpa dipengaruhi pandangan gue seorang. Apa gue masih naive? krn sampe skrg gue nganggep apa yg diucapin orang ke gue, itu sebuah kejujuran… walaupun kenyataan enggak.

Gue inget, temen gue pernah bilang, "Gal, kl diliat dari agama, gue emang anaknya jarang shalat… gue emang suka minum… itu semua adalah keputusan gue… urusan gue sama diri gue sendiri dan sama yang Diatas, gak ngerugiin orang lain. Gue maksimalin hidup ini dengan cara gue, pilihan gue. Tapi kl berhubungan sama orang lain, gue berusaha berbuat baik, ngejalanin hidup gue dengan tanggung jawab. Gue enggak yang kayak…. backstabbing temen gue, selingkuhin cewek gue.. hal yang bisa nyakitin orang lain. Gue emang jauh dari sempurna, cuman gue nganggep diri gue sendiri orang baik. Gue gak mau jadi orang munafik."

Dan emang kebukti, dia seorang temen yang baik banget. Bertahun2 gue temenan sama dia, gue bisa ngeliat gimana dia ngejalanin hidupnya. "Ketulusan" yang dia kasih kesekelilingnya kerasa banget…

Kalo lo ngaca, apa sih yang lo liat? sering gak lo nembus fisik lo and ngeliat diri lo SEUTUHNYA? Kadang gue ngeliat diri gue sedalam2nya. Bisa2, gue ngaca lebih dari 15 menit, bengong didepan kaca, ngebayangin apa yang udah gue lakuin selama ini. Beberapa kali gue malu ngeliat diri gue… tapi lebih seringnya gue bangga sama refleksi yang gue liat. Gue bisa ngaca dengan kepala tegap dan bisa ngehadapin diri gue sendiri. Gak ada yang tau apa isi hati, kepala kita  kecuali diri kita sendiri… dan itu yang harus dihadapin sama diri kita setiap harinya, kan?

"hihi, lumayan juga nih baju sale… whoaa, ngantuk! SMS cowok gue dulu ah, bilang gue sayang sama dia" padahal cowoknya lagi ngaca sambil ngomong, "Gila gue ganteng banget… cewek mana lagi yaa yang harus gue taklukin minggu ini?"

Kalo orang2 yang (menurut gue) jahat itu, bisa gak yaa dia natap lurus dirinya dan bangga sama dirinya sendiri, bangga sama semua yg udah dia lakuin selama ini? kalaupun dia bangga, lagi2 gue pengen masuk ke dirinya dan tau apa yang ada dipikirannya. Kenapa hati nurani kadang gak didengerin ya…

Subjektivitas, emang gak ada habisnya…

Mr. Unhappy!

December 5th, 2006 by galuhgirl

Why do you want me to be what I could never be?
Why do you want me to act like I was another man?
You always say I’m crazy, then why do you stay with me?

Oh, tell me why… Mister Unhappy
Mister Always Angry
Mister Always Sad
Mister Dissatisfied
Tell me what to do
So I could be with you
Tell me how to be
So you could love me…

I tried to behave for you Just so you would not argue
I changed my personality so you treat me with decency
My feisty temper doesn’t agree
With your perfect idea of me
You even made a proposition
That I should be on medication
Remind me what you love about me, mister

Mister Unhappy
Mister Always Grumpy
Mister always cool
Mister often cruel
You’re the one saying "I need some serious, serious fixing
But who the hell are you to tell me what to do?
Now it’s over and I feel like a newborn child
I see hope and beauty in the little patches of grass
You almost made me be like one of your sad fantasies
You almost made me feel like I wasn’t with you…
No more wasting my life with you, Mister Mister

Superficial Mister "I am so special" Mister "Something’s wrong"
Let me sing you a song Mister Unhappy and Angry
Mister Sad and Dissatisfied
Mister controlling and mind
fucking Grumpy and Complexity Mister cool, mister often cruel You’re so unhappy and lonely
Always saying "something is wrong with me"
Well, something is wrong with you, man
Because ever since it’s over between you and I I feel so… amazing! Mister Unhappy… Why didn’t you let me be?

-Julie Delpy-

what,,what,,what?

I have a very lovely life… a true joyride! Yet, when it comes to love life, frankly, it’s kinda dull for the past 2 years. Yes, met some nice guys (some were very nice indeed..aw…aw), but they were just.. you know, come and go. Only some that remain in my memories and heart. However, I  just had (or maybe still having it, not quite sure) a journey I didn’t intend on taking. And all happened (or still happening) within 1 month! For the past 1 month, I :

- Saw a person who introduced me to, I assumed at that time it was hmmm….love, on TV, yes!! HE was on TV flesh and blood! A guy whom I haven’t seen for the past 10 years even more! (actually, he is my first ever boyfriend) and pufff…! He was there, on TV

- Then, again… accidently met a person who showed me (again, at that time I thought it was) love while I was in high school. Again, haven’t seen him in years..then pufff..! he was standing in a convenient store ( we did say hello, though)

- Heard a story (accidently, of course) about an ex who, in fact, now works in Jakarta… and been here for a while. hmmm… haven’t heard news from him in years either.

- Intended to grow (once was called) love with someone, yet relieve that I finally know the answers (this one, I intended on taking…worth the risk, though)

- Met a person who gave me brain orgasms a year ago, someone whom I could talk with for hours and hours yet felt like only minutes…he is indeed a brain teaser! Yes!!! Never heard news from him since, yet…again… Puff!! He was standing there…right in front of me about a week ago, looking cute….( I too said hello and had a nice lunch with him afterwards)

- Last (I guess…I hope), I met (at least, when I first met and knew him I thought he was) my rebounce guy. From a simple acquintance… to a lover… to a stranger. But..well….he wasn’t only a rebounce guy. I kinda like him.., even more than like, but not yet love. One thing for sure, this guy made me think of him days and nights for a few months! But then again, I haven’t heard news from him in almost a year and puff!! He was there, when I was with my friends in Kemang… just walking right in front of me, looking strangely charming and all! (uh, indeed a very charming one). He is just like me… a loner who loves freedom.

ALL HAPPENED IN A MONTH…. persons who were very important in my life…persons who built me into who I am right now! They were the one who gave me all these nice, sweet, bitter memories… who taught me what it felt to be happy and heartbroken… coincidence? don’t know… but seeing them (or heard about em, or talked to em, whatever) make me think… and the reason I write this blog, is to  thank them…. without you guys, I may not be the person I am right now. So, THANK YOU, GUYS! :)

Say no words…

Your eyes cannot lie… I see your heart…

I can see it’s broken

Shattered to pieces like a broken glass

Come here, my princess

Use my heart… here… use mine!

Don’t cry… I’m here for you

Use my heart as I will mend yours

Use it… until you’re healed

You deserve no sadness

You deserve no pain, my little pirncess

You’re safe now

I have your heart and you have mine…
