Ayo, lari lari dansa dansa

Postingan kali ini adalah postingan non-PhD, cape juga mengkritik diri sendiri haha… Kali ini temanya adalah hidup sehat dan bebas stress. Yahuuuuu…. Mari mari…

Akibat stress terpendam yang dilampiaskan dengan makan enak di Jepang tanpa kontrol, alhasil gw meng-super gendut dalam 5,5 tahun terakhir ini. Bayangkan, gw naik 20 kilo dong hahahaha, seru beneerrr. Gapapa, menikmati hidup mumpung masih blum penyakitan *excuses excuses*. Sebenernya concern gw cuman satu, dua ding. Bukan gendut dan tidak seksi, tapi baju pada gak muat dan ngos2an pas jalanan mendaki dikit :D . Kalau saja gw adalah milyuner, bisa tinggal blanja baju dan mobil.. sayangnya bukan belum *optimisssss*.

Dengan niat gak niat, akhirnya gw mulai melirik olahraga. Secara kita mahasiswa miskin begitu, gak mampu ke gym atau ikut kelas khusus atau beli alat khusus, maka kriteria utama adalah terjangkau. Lalu, untuk mempertahankan motivasi, olahraga itu perlu menyenangkan, benar? Kemudian, effortnya cukup tapi tidak berlebihan. Alias, dekat dari rumah. Dengan tiga kriteria itu, sejauh ini ada tiga jenis olahraga yang udah pernah gw coba dan I looove them all. Apa aja coba?

“Sunlight and strawberry bubble gum”

leave a comment »

Notes: Occasionally, gw ngepost lirik lagu2 yang gw suka. Biasanya adalah lagu2 super favorit yang ga bakal bosen sepanjang masa. Berhubung doi gak spontaneously romantic (kebanyakan mikir ah, kamu), jadi gw aja yang ngambil inisiatif: Lagu yang satu ini, gw angkat sebagai theme song jatuh cinta bulan ini. Because, 

 ’A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person’ (Mignon McLaughlin)

You’re so delicious. You’re so soft, sweet on the tip of my tongue. You taste like sunlight and strawberry bubble gum. You bite my lip, you spike my blood. You make my heart beat faster.

Own me, you own me, rattle my bones. You turn me over and over. Till I can’t control myself. Make me a liar, yeah, one big disaster uh. You make my heart beat faster. Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh

It’s the way you swell, slow. Pushing right out of your seams. It’s the way you smile, baby. When you’ve got me on my knees. Your all night noise, your sirens howl. You make my heart beat faster.

Own me, you own me, rattle my bones. You turn me over and over. Till I can’t control myself. Make me a liar, yeah, one big disaster uh. You make my heart beat, faster.  Uh uh uh uh uh uh

Cause I jump, I crash, I crawl. I beg, I steal, I fall, oooo. Yeah you own me. You make my heart beat faster, faster. Faster, faster. I can’t get enough. This has come. I guess world is over to me.

Own me, you own me, rattle my bones. You turn me over and over. Till I can’t control myself. Make me a liar, yeah, one big disaster uh. You make my heart beat faster.

You make my heart beat faster.

Love, Me

with 4 comments

I read a note my Grandma wrote back in 1923. Grandpa kept it in his coat, and he showed it once to me. He said: ”Boy, you might not understand, but a long, long time ago, Grandma’s daddy didn’t like me none. But I love your Grandma so. We had this crazy plan to meet and run away together. Get married in the first town we came to and live forever. But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet, instead, I found this letter, and this is what it said:

If you get there before I do, don’t give up on me. I’ll meet you when my chores are through. I don’t know how long I’ll be. But I’m not gonna let you down. Darling, wait and see. And between now and then, til I see you again,  I’ll be loving you. #Love, Me.”

I read those words just hours before my Grandma passed away, in the doorway of the church where me and Grandpa stopped to pray. I know I’ve never seen him cry in all my fifteen years, but as he said these words to her, his eyes filled up with tears:

“If you get there before I do, don’t give up on me. I’ll meet you when my chores are through. I don’t know how long I’ll be. But I’m not gonna let you down. Darling, wait and see. And between now and then, til I see you again,  I’ll be loving you. #Love, Me.”

(“Love, Me”. by Collin Raye. Find the beautiful song here)

Personal note:

Very romantic, I feel like reading the letter to you. It’s just a little over 2 years, but it’s been the happiest years of my life. I hope we will have had a long happy life together by the time I decide to say these words to you. Thank you for the red rose.

Yang Terbaik Bagimu

leave a comment »

Ada Band & Gita Gutawa

Teringat masa kecilku kau peluk dan kau manja
Indahnya saat itu buatku melambung
Disisimu terngiang hangat napas segar harum tubuhmu
Kau tuturkan segala mimpi-mimpi serta harapanmu

Kau inginku menjadi yang terbaik bagimu
Patuhi perintahmu jauhkan godaan
Yang mungkin ku lakukan dalam waktu ku beranjak dewasa
Jangan sampai membuatku terbelenggu jatuh dan terinjak

Tuhan tolonglah sampaikan sejuta sayangku untuknya
Ku terus berjanji tak kan khianati pintanya
Ayah dengarlah betapa sesungguhnya ku mencintaimu
Kan ku buktikan ku mampu penuh maumu

Andaikan detik itu kan bergulir kembali
Ku rindukan suasana basuh jiwaku
Membahagiakan aku yang haus akan kasih dan sayangmu
Tuk wujudkan segala sesuatu yang pernah terlewati
