Chasing The Sun - The Wanted

I'm better, So much better now
I see the light, touch the light, We're together now
I'm better, So much better now
Look to the skies, give me life, We're together now

We've only just begun
Hypnotized by drums
Until forever comes
You'll find us chasing the sun
They said this day wouldn't come
We refused to run
We've only just begun
You'll find us chasing the sun

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun

When Daylight's fading
We're gonna play in the dark
'Til it's golden again
And now it feels so amazing
Can see you coming
And We'll never grow old again
You'll find us chasing the sun

I'm never, I'm never down
Lying here, staring up, And you're looking down
I'm never, I'm never down
Live forever, forever, With you around

We've only just begun
Hypnotized by drums
Until forever comes
You'll find us chasing the sun
They said this day wouldn't come
We refused to run
We've only just begun
You'll find us chasing the sun

The sun, the sun, the sun, the sun, the sun
You'll find us chasing the sun

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun

When the Daylight's fading
We're gonna play in the dark
'Til it's golden again
And now it feels so amazing
Can't see it coming
And We'll never grow old again
You'll find us chasing the sun

You'll find us chasing the sun
You'll find us chasing the sun
You'll find us chasing the sun
You'll find us chasing the sun
You'll find us chasing the sun

When the Daylight's fading
We're gonna play in the dark
'Til it's golden again
And now it feels so amazing
Can't see it coming
And We'll never grow old again
You'll find us chasing the sun

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll find us chasing the sun

@BTC with Vicelly & Sofie

Me, Vicelly and Sofie

yesterday the three of us went to Bandung Trade Center (Bandung Fashion Mall) to watch Ice Age 4 . sofie and i waited for vicelly at Trimulia cause she's still in gamaliel, her SHS . at about noon she arrived and we walked to BTC. lucky for us the mall is located quite near from trimulia, and it takes just about 20 minutes to go there.
after we arrived we went to the foodcourt to chat and catch up, so many had happened since we graduated from middle school. and then we went to the cinema to get our tickets. we were going to watch ice age 4 at studio 5. so we waited in front of the studio to chat and take some pics, 'cause it' gonna be a while before we get to see vicel  again. so we went in at 2 PM and then waited for the movie to start.
ice age was hilarious! i can't stop laughing the whole time, and it was sooo funny! for you who hadn't watch it, you really should!
after the movie ended we went to the food court to chat again, and we stayed there till about 5 PM. and then we went home.
it was great to hang out and catch up a bit, but we need more time together! hopefully we all get to see each other again sometimes..

Enchanted - Taylor Swift

There I was again tonight
Forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired lonely place

Walls of insincerity,
Shifting eyes and vacancy
Vanished when I saw your face

All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you

Your eyes whispered "Have we met? "
Across the room your silhouette
Starts to make its way to me
The playful conversation starts
Counter all your quick remarks
Like passing notes in secrecy

And it was enchanting to meet you
All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you

This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you

The lingering question kept me up
2 AM, who do you love?
I wonder 'til I'm wide awake
And now I'm pacing back and forth
Wishing you were at my door
I'd open up and you would say, "Hey,
It was enchanting to meet you,
All I know is I was enchanted to meet you"

This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you know
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you

This is me praying that
This was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name
Until I see you again
These are the words I held back
As I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you

Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you

This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you know
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you

Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you

Falling in ♥

Before you can grow up, you must fall in love three times.

Once, you must fall in love with your best friend, ruining your friendship forever. This will teach you who your true friends are, and the fine line between friendship and more.
Once you must fall in love with someone you believe is perfect. You will learn that no one is perfect, and that you should never be treated as anything less than you deserve.
And once, you must fall in love with someone that is exactly like you. This will teach you about who you are, and who you want to be.

And when you’re through with all that, you learn that the people who care about you the most are the ones that you hurt, and the ones that hurt you are the ones that needed you the most.
But most of all, you learn that love is only a concept and is not something that can be defined, it is different to each and every person on this earth, knowing that everyone wants to be loved.

Malaysia Trip 2011

i realized that i haven't told you about my Malaysia trip which was in June 2011, so i guess i'll just attach a few photos . i really enjoyed it by the way, and Malaysia is really beautiful . :D

me @ the harbour , it's really beautiful and the water's very clear so we can see many fishes swimming around.

there are many boats at the harbour and i really like watching them .

papa, me, rico, mama . we stopped for a moment in this beautiful place when we were on the way to the canopy walk .

and this is my favorite : we went snorkeling ! me, rico, gio, obi, papa, om gordon, and om alwin . the sea is gorgeous and there are many school of fish ! we swim around them and they didn't seem to mind at all .

A Thousand Years - Christina Perry

Heart beats fast, colors and promises
How to be brave? How can I love when I'm afraid to fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a Thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

Time stands still, beauty in all she is
I will be brave, I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath, every hour has come to this

One step closer

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a Thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

One step closer

One step closer

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a Thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

Life - unknown

There is a start line and a finish line. What happens along our journey of life is different for each of us. There will be trials, triumphs, good memories, and ones that break your heart. But in the end we all go. And so then, the goal isn't to last the longest, but to make sure each day here counts. Be kind, to yourself and others. Let that kindness inspire others. This simple daily act makes your life worthwhile. Peace be with you.

One Direction ♥

1D is a British - Irish boyband and i've been slightly obsessed with them . hahahaha

Spectrum

i drew these yesterday , and this morning i took some pictures of them . the first one is a drawing of a Mockingjay (from the Hunger Games) and the second is an owl and a mouse . the rainbow ? i used a CD and faced it towards the sunlight, and a rainbow is form :)

The Hunger Games

i watched the hunger games at cihampelas walk 21 cinema . it was AMAZING, i absolutely love it !!! one of the best movies i have ever watched .
it was about Katniss Everdeen , a girl in District 12 who replaced her sister (Primrose) in an annual TV show created by the Capitol which requires all districts to send a girl and a boy to fight to death, until there's only one left . since there are 12 districts , 12 boys and 12 girls was sent to fight in a forest . the boy from district 12 is Peeta Mellark . the Capitol decides to make this year an exception , so they would let two kids win if they came from the same district . so Katniss and Peeta worked and fought together and in the end they are the only ones left , so they won .
to all who haven't watch The Hunger Games , it's awesome . highly recommended !

Me and the Sunset of Ujung Genteng

 

The gorgeous sunset of Ujung Genteng, so pretty !

Baby SeaTurtle

Aku pergi ke ujung genteng tanggal 7 Desember-9 Desember kemaren . sebenernya ini acara sekolah, tapi ga wajib . aku milih ikut soalnya Rachel sama Sofie juga ikut . anyway, di hari kedua , tanggal 8, kita pergi ke penangkaran penyu agak sorean . jalan kesana tu jeleeekk pisan , bolong-bolong . sampe disana kita ngambil foto-foto untuk bikin laporan . terus kita ke pantainya .
Aduuhh pasirnya haluuuuuuss banget ! uda gitu pantainya bisa dibilang bersih , meskipun ada sampah-sampah juga . viewnya bagus pisan , tapi ombaknya gede-gede jadi kita ga boleh nyemplung ke aer . begitu aku nyampe pantainya , aku , rachel , sama sofie langsung buka sepatu n jalan-jalan di pasir empuk . kita foto-foto (biasaa, narsis) soalnya tempatnya keren banget . terus kita dikasih penjelasan sama orang sana tentang penyu .
beberapa lama kemudian , pas hampir sunset , kita disuru baris berjajar di deket laut . uda gitu kita disuru jongkok n masing-masing dikasi satu ekor anak penyu (read: tukik) untuk dilepasin ke laut . tukiknya lucu-lucuuuuu banget ! yang punya aku hiperaktif , begitu dipegang langsung ngedayung-dayung minta dilepasin . aku sempet ngambil beberapa foto penyu aku sebelum bapa yang ngejelasin itu treak : 'itungan 3 lepasin yhaa..! satu...dua...tiga.. !!' aku taro penyu aku di pasir, dan dia langsung lari cepeeet banget ke laut .
ahh sedih deh , padahal penyunya lucu banget ! pengen dibawa pulang ! mudah-mudahan penyu aku jadi salahsatu dari 70 penyu dilepasin hari itu yang bisa balik lagi ke pantai Ujung Genteng 25 tahun mendatang buat bertelor (itu juga kalo dia betina) . udah selesai ngelepasin tukik , kita liat sunset yang baguuuss banget sambil nungguin malem .
terus kita disuruh pergi dari pantainya , soalnya mungkin ada penyu dewasa yang mau bertelor . tadinya kita mau nungguin penyu bertelor , tapi penyunya ga dateng-dateng ampe jam 7 lebih . akhirnya kita ga jadi nungguin soalnya kelamaan . jadi kita pulang ke hotel untuk makan .
mudah-mudahan penyu aku selamat di laut sampe gede !!

bubbye baby turtle ! ♥

The Adventures of Tintin

 

I have just watch the Adventures of Tintin - the Secret of the Unicorn . .

It's a pretty good movie . . 

I watch it yesterday with my brother and 2 cousins (Rico, Gio, Toby)  at Bandung Indah Plaza Empire21 . .

we got the seats at the second row and it was really noisy at the front . . (the sound system made me deaf)

and i had to keep my head pointing towards the screen, which was waaaay up . .

btw we got 2 medium sized popcorn and the movie was about 109 minutes long . .

it's fun, tough . . and i suggest you to watch the movie, cuz it's a good one . .

:D

The Story Of Us - Taylor Swift

i used to think one day we'd tell the story of us

how we met and the sparks flew instantly

people would say they're the lucky ones

i used to know my place was a spot next to you

now i'm searching the room for an empty seat

cause lately i don't even know what page you're on

oh, simple complications

misscommunications lead to fallout

so many things that i wish you knew

so many walls up, i can't break through

now i'm standing alone in a crowded room

and we're not speaking

and i'm dying to know is it killing you

like it's killing me

i don't know what to say since a twist of fate

when it all broke down

and the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now

next chapter

how'd we end up this way?

see me nervously pulling at my clothes and trying to look busy

and you're doing your best to avoid me

i'm starting to think one day i'll tell the story of us

how i was losing my mind when i saw you here

but you held your pride like you should have held me

oh, i'm scared to see the ending

why are we pretending this is nothing?

i'd tell you but i don't know how

i've never heard silence quite this loud

now i'm standing alone in a crowded room

and we're not speaking

and i'm dying to know is it killing you

like it's killing me

i don't know what to say since a twist of fate

when it all broke down

and the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now

this is looking like a contest

of who can act like they care less

but i liked it better when you were on my side

the battle's in your hands now

but i would lay my armor down

if you'd say you'd rather love than fight

so many things that you wish i knew

but the story of us might be ending soon

now i'm standing alone in a crowded room

and we're not speaking

and i'm dying to know is it killing you

like it's killing me

i don't know what to say since a twist of fate

when it all broke down

and the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now

now, now

and we're not speaking

and i'm dying to know is it killing you

like it's killing me?

and i don't know what to say since a twist of fate

cause we're going down

and the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now

the end.

I'm Back!!
