Rank in 2010

I've watched TV a lot this year, and these are the rank for TV program I've been watching in 2010

1. Quizzes, like Ranking 1, Super Family, etc.

2. Films (sinetron not included!).

3. News.

4. Tourism guide, e.g Backpacker, and else.

5. Talent show, such as IMB, Indonesian Idol, and something like that.

Hehe, it really is not important. But, I have suggestions to TV station, especially SCTV and RCTI, please stop producing sinetron, it's just too many. Please stop it!

Harimau vs Garuda (part 2)

Akhirnya, drama AFF telah berakhir. Saya bukan penganut orientasi hasil, jadi saya tidak terlalu kecewa dan mengambil pusing dengan gelar runner up yang kita peroleh.

Setidaknya kita bisa membuktikan pada dunia bahwa kita bukan sekedar bangsa sinetron, bangsa yang suka rusuh, suka membesar-besarkan masalah, dan cengeng. Kita, Indonesia tetap bangsa yang besar. Besar karena kita bisa sportif dan menerima takdir dengan lapang dada.

There are always other chances.
It's only a game. Some will win, some will lose.

Harimau vs Garuda

Saya tidak bermaksud tidak mencintai negara saya, atau berkhianat (bahasa sinetronnya), tapi saya merasa pertandingan tadi malam adalah hasil dari kita, masyarakat Indonesia yang terlalu mudah puas dan cenderung mengangkat tinggi-tinggi sesuatu yang sedang terlihat hebat di sekitar kita. Garuda sebelum pertandingan semalam memang menampilkan kemenangan berturut-turut, namun sebenarnya disadari atau tidak, permainan tim garuda pun sebenarnya tidak terlalu berkembang. Grafiknya pun menurun. 

Akhirnya, segala kekhawatiran Alfred Riedl pun terbukti sudah pada pertandingan final leg I di Stadion Bukit Jalil tadi malam. Garuda dikuliti habis oleh Harimau, 3 - 0. 

Tak ada guna memang menyesali apa yang sudah terjadi. Kita doakan dan saksikan kelanjutan perjuangan Garuda pada pertandingan final leg II.

Ganbatte kudasai..! 

Learning Other Languages

I've been always interesting in learning other languages. Since...I don't know exactly when I tend to it.

But I can tell you this... 

Maybe it starts when I read a children story about a king ( I don't know what is the title of the story) who got lost in the village far from his kingdom, alone and he decided to spend the night there, because he conclude that the place is save for him. In one of the residents house. 

The night fell and he was going to sleep. In the bed, he heard the hosts speak about their plan to eat the king. They thought the king can't speak their language, so they felt free to talk about it in front of the room where the king slept. The king can speak many languages though.

The king scared and he decided to escape at that night when everyone there fell asleep.

Shortly, the king can escape and find the way to his kingdom in one shape. 

The king save because he can speak the people's language.

It's only a tale, but it's good right?

"Walking Faster"

When my father passed away, about 8 years ago, one of my aunt said that it's time for us "to walk faster" than before.

At that time I didn't even know how to walk faster. 

I never tend to walk faster, but maybe I did it without I realized myself, 

or maybe things I dealt with a long the way made me did it.   

I still don't know until now.

I'm just hoping, if I do, I'm going to the right direction

Because, if it's not, so what's the use of walking faster? 

Smile, Somewhere Over The Rainbow

Lately, I'm listening to some songs, and it's running in my ears many times...




Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
 
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.
 
Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.
 
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?
 

And also this song... 

Smile though your heart is aching Smile even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through for you

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile


That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
 

It's Still Mine

Can u imagine, an old lady should be punished for months just for stealing seeds of cocoa, while there are many people (the intellect kind of) can still be free after stealing billions of public funds.

When in some places, there are many people suffering from starve, while in other places (still in my country), some people can afford millions rupiahs just for one time meals and sometimes they don’t finish eating it.

Some (many) times, people throw away out trashes from their nice and expensive cars.

It is still my country, even if there are so many things annoy me.

It’s just always hard for me to understand how life’s going, here in MY COUNTRY, but it’s still MINE. 

I never hate it, I just hate that I can’t do anything but grousing...here in my blog. 

But, is this just me, or do you see it to?
