A little tune to brighten up your day



Lyrics


I don't know anymore
I don't know what I've been fighting for
But something inside me won't go quietly

And I could be anywhere
'Cause we're all breathing the same air
It goes inside and makes me feels alive
And all I can say is, all I can say

I am here and I will be
Following my own way
Forever and a day
I am here and I'm here to stay

Oh, we are here and we will be
Following our own way
No matter what you say
We are here and we're here to stay
We are here to stay

No matter where you roam
Anywhere you lay your heart's your home
Stand your ground if they push you down
Because all you can say is, all you can say

We are here and we will be
Following our own way
No matter what you say
We are here and we're here to stay

We are real and we feel it
When you deny us
Or when you get tired of us
We are here and we're here to stay
We are here to stay

I never knew when enough was enough
Or whether to stay when the going was tough
But I won't let a little heart be afraid
And all I can say is, all I can say

I am here and I will be
Following my own way
Forever and a day
I am here and I'm here to stay

Oh, we are here and we will be
Following our own way
No matter what you say

We are here and we're here to stay
We are here to stay

I am always a fan of Lenka, her unique vocal and meaningful song lyrics is the reasons why. This song just captured my attention because to be honest I am currently feeling lost about everything in my life. I don't know where this path that i took will lead me to, for sure i want to be lead to a good place, but i am feeling anxious and restless. I find it quite hard for me to sleep these few days as whenever i turned off the lights in my room and laid my head on my pillow, my mind starts to wander everywhere, contemplating about my life from every aspects of it. I got nothing except feeling more restless about everything, and at some point maybe it made me tired enough to end up falling asleep. And tonight, i find myself feeling afraid of turning off the lights, because i don't want to let my mind wandered to those thoughts again. I want to sleep, but i also don't feel like it. 


"I am here and i will be following my own way, forever and a day"





Lyrics


Keep giving me hope for a better day
Keep giving me love to find a way
Through this heaviness I feel
I just need someone to say, everything's okay

Woke my weary head
Crawled out of my bed
And I said, "Oh, how do I go on?"
Nothing's going right, shadow's took the light
And I said, "Oh, how do I go on?"

Sometimes I need a little sunshine
And sometimes I need you

Keep giving me hope for a better day
Keep giving me love to find a way
Through this messy life I made for myself
Heaven knows I need a little

Hope for a better day
A little love to find a way
Through this heaviness I feel
I just need someone to say, everything's okay
(Everything's ok)

I gave my hope to you
When you were nearly through
And you said, "Oh, I can't go on"
Well, now I need it back
'Cause I have got a lack of all that's good
And I can't go on

Yeah, sometimes I just need a little sunshine
And sometimes I need you

Keep giving me hope for a better day
Keep giving me love to find a way
Through this messy life I made for myself
Heaven knows I need a little

Hope for a better day
A little love to find a way
Through this heaviness I feel
I just need someone to say, everything's okay

(Everything's okay, everything's okay)
Sometimes I need a little sunshine
And sometimes I need you

Keep giving me hope for a better day
Keep giving me love to find a way
Through this messy life I made for myself
Heaven knows I need a little

Hope for a better day
A little love to find a way
Through this messy life I made for myself
Heaven knows I need a little

Hope for a better day
A little love to find a way
Through this heaviness I feel
I just need someone to say, everything's okay

Yes, i do realize it's 2 am in the morning. so why am i still not yet sleeping? i guess my body has gotten used to my bad sleeping habits back in sg, so it's quite hard for me to sleep early nowadays. well, except when i am feeling very tired. I do realize as well that i had not updated my blog for what seems to be like a very long period already, been always wanting to write something, yet when i logged in, i honestly dont have any idea about what to type.
It's been weeks since i came to spend my holiday in Medan, yet i haven't had the chance to meet my friends (except my two dearest buddy S and J) the rest, well i don't know, too busy i guess? I had a hard time meeting S and J too to be honest, since they got works and college to attend. Not to mention the fact that i still have a long list of food that i want to eat before i went back to dearest lion city. Ah, how i wish i could drive, so i can go to anyplace at anytime when i feel like eating something. This is probably the reason why sometime i couldn't help but think that sg is better, transportation-wise.
Well, at least i went to Brastagi last Sunday. To spend some quality times with my family, had some fun in Mikie Holiday. Pics? maybe i'll upload some here in the next few days. maybe, i warn you. kkk... Mom advised me not to come back this Dec, and just stay in sg to find some intership or work to do. So honestly, i don't know when i can be back in my dearest hometown again. I decided to use this 2 weeks wisely, take bunches of pictures, eat loads of food, meet up with my friends, and spend quality time with my family. Not to forget, to pay another visit to Ethan (my dearest puppy whom is now living with another family :'( )
Will update again later, my eyes starts to feel heavy already. *yawn*

okay, it's been a very long time since i last post here. I am currently back in yours truly city, Medan. and currently super craving for korean food. kill me please, i am craving for indonesian food in singapore and craving for korean food in medan. great craving i have here.
actually i just had lunch in UFC, it sells Korean fried chicken if you might ask, most youngsters in Medan probably had known this place and flocked the restaurant when it's newly opened. The chicken tasted great i should say, but i wish they also have the chicken with the sweet sour sauce (like the yangnyum chicken that i order in singapore) but it was okay, the one that i am quite dissappointed with is the jjajangmyun. That is not a jjajangmyun, really, although it tasted good, but it's not jjajangmyun still.
ah, what have i been writing here?

Jazz Pop, Pop-Jazz, Indonesian music

Hey ya! Super enjoying my holiday now, life's good, life's good. Haha. So few days ago i was feeling kinda bored with KPop songs and tried to browse Indonesian Jazz Pop (or Pop-Jazz) genre songs, as recommended by my friend. And I now agree that that is Indonesian style of music, not those girlbands and boybands who are trying to copy KPop. I mean, if Indonesia wants to make their music 'style' well known internationally, they should try to promote these jazz pop songs, to me it was more genuine and well, i think it fits Indonesian culture better somehow, the relaxing and unique melody. I'll share some of my favorites here. Enjoy! :)

Adera - Lebih Indah

Sierra Soetedjo - The Only One

Raisa - Melangkah

Citra Scholastika - Pasti Bisa

Maliq & D'Essentials - Untitled




Raisa - Stay (I'm not sure whether this is still considered as Jazz Pop, but it was a really sweet song, i just feel that i have to share it, lol)


Great songs aren't they?

Gemini facts

Honestly i always had a soft spot for astrology, whenever i bought a magazine, the first thing that i'm going to check is the astrology section. Although i never believe it if they wrote something bad about my horoscope, but i will have this positive feel if they wrote about something good. lol
So i also follows this twitter account who posts about Gemini's (yes, i am a Gemini) facts and i think it will be quite fun to share some that i agrees with here.


Gemini's fact
1. Many times when  say "I'm fine", they really mean "I'll be fine"
2.  may say they're over you, but every time their phone vibrates, their heart still wishes it's a text from you
3. Restless, with an active imagination and a keen intellect, life must be lived to the fullest for 
4.  usually have several things going at once, and within such chaos, they thrive
5Air signs: , Libra, and Aquarius operate from their intellect rather than their emotions
6. If you can't make me laugh, it's not likely I'm staying!
7. If it doesn't make any sense,  won't do it
8.  would prefer someone with a good intellect over someone who is nice-looking any day
9. If you can make  laugh and keep them entertained, you have won big points
10.  do have a tough mind making decisions and it isn't unlike them to change their mind a half dozen times about something
11.  are outgoing and yet they have a side that they don't let people get close to
12.  loves nothing more than shopping and easy chit chat
13.  actually have so many sides that even they aren't sure who they are
14. Once  do find someone to commit to, they are fools for love. Nothing is too good for their mate
15. For , attraction begins in their head. They must have a connection 1st mentally before they'll want to proceed with a love interest.
16.  like it if their partner is out doing their own thing too
17.  tend to overthink situations to such a great extent that they cause oneself pain
18. The one thing they can't do without is bookshelves. Books hold a special place in their heart
19. Since  is not sure whether they're coming or going, things tend to look a bit chaotic
20.  usually make a loyal, and sympathetic friend. They offer a fresh outlook and great advice to their true friends
21.  have a difficult time expressing their true emotions
22. While  knows many people, they have few close friends. They tend to stay on the superficial plane with almost everyone
23. Maybe  hope too much. Maybe  dream too much. But at least they won't give up until they've tried, & they won't regret anything
24. Sometimes  pretend that they don't care. But really, they care more than anyone else ever will
25. It's funny how  feels so much but they don't say a word. They're screaming inside but they can't be heard
26. You will find  on their phone or the computer. They like to know what is going on in the news and could even be a news junkie
27. If the person is smart,  will find them hot. Not a serious smart, though. They can’t handle some1 who doesn’t know how to lighten up
28. When a  loves someone it's likely for a lifetime, even if they grow apart, that love will still stand
29.  is able to smile this morning like they weren't crying last night
30.  r very fond of traveling, & love 2 make it all at once - the mountains, the sea, & the woods, can hardly choose only 1 destination


okay, i think that's enough for today.
