Days as University Student (MAHASISWA!!!)

huaaaa, fellas! it's been a long time, a long long month since my last post about Mai's single. that was when I was still confused about whether I could continue my study to university or not. and now, I'm back!!!! as a very happy university student of faculty of economics in University of Indonesia, one of the best universities in Indonesia and also world!! haha. I'm really proud. I really thanked God when I knew I finally could be a university student though I can't be a doctor or technician like I used to dream. but being a manager isn't bad at all, right? I'll gain more profit, money, hahahahha...
well, I've been very busy recently with some orientation duties. they suck, really!especially the commitee of discipline. they are very cruel. we also forcefully wear a big name tag and yellow jacket (our university pride!!!). we are burdened with so many duties, but I still enjoy them. hahahahha.
it's been 2 weeks since I studied. and I found myself interesting in mathematical economics and bussiness class. ohhhhhhh
well, I want to review a song from Utada Hikaru, namely Come Back To me, her international single. I know it's really late. but yeah, just to fill my review field. ahahahha

I really love this song. from the beginning till the end. I love the sound of piano that makes the song seems orchestral in the beginning. I also love the backing vocal when continuing Utada sing the chorus. this is one of her recent good songs, I think. I don't really like her recent songs. but this is an exception, as well as the flavor of life! hahahah. Utada is cool singing this song...

Well, Mai Kuraki will be on the next review with her compilation album, ALL MY BEST. she looks beautiful in the cover! :)

Fully Annoyed!!^Mai Kuraki's new single!

I bought a DVD two days ago, namely Boys Before Flowers (the Korean version of Hana Yori Dango or Meteor Garden). Well, the drama really hits me and causes me fall into high curiosity. I have happily finished watching the 1st disc and when it came to the 2nd disc, it really drove me mad!! At first it ran normally and in the middle, there's a problem that the disc ran abnormally (don't know how to explain!). For your information, one disc contains five episodes. And when I tried to open the episodes 7 in the 2nd disc,skipping the episode 6 which was unable to run normally, it wouldn't be opened. Neither would the 8, 9, and 10. ARKKKHHH! Don't say that I have to wait that episode aired on TV! Hmmm, I think I should try to go back to the store where I bought it and asked if I could replace it with another one.

FINALLY!! The new single from Mai Kuraki has been released since June 10th, 2009. The single is Beautiful, which consists of some songs like Beautiful, Wana, and Beautiful instrumental. I think 'Beautiful' is good and really different from Mai's before single. And her voice sounds smooth and makes the song really 'sexy' to hear. But I prefer Wana, because it reminds me of her songs in the beginning of her career, fully R&B. I also love the backing vocals that yells 'hey'. Try it!
I also recommend you to see the MV of Beautiful. It uses blue sea with a very blue sky as the settings. They are very beautiful!! I just hope it isn't an editing. haha.
And the CD cover is also full of blue!!
For information, Beautiful is used as the Cosmeport Style Salon CM song.

Do Best, and God will do the rest

Waaaaaa...
I can't believe that the days have passed! The days which I had to face with all my strength have gone. Thanks God!
I've already done the university entrance test. I'm not sure about the result since the questions were really hard to do, to solve!! haaaaah. But I have done my best and even if I failed, I wouldn't cry. That won't be my first time to feel lost and moreover, I'd feel 'kalah dengan terhormat' because I've done it with my own capability. But I believe in miracle and the power of prayer. So I'm optimistic. I will be a pupil of faculty of medicine. YEAHHH! (God bless me.)
And now, it's time for me to play. I think for some days ahead I will make more time to play though I still have to study for the next test. and... in this Saturday, there will be an announcement from my school whether I pass the national examination or not. Oh...! I hope I will!! God, please bless me... I need to pass this so I can continue studying in university and make my family happy and proud... wish me luck, fellas...!

hmm, I ever promised to make an entry about some artists. I think I can't do that for this time. sorry. But I really promise I will make that entry though I'm not sure about the exact time. okay?
so...
Byee

Idol Versus!-Run for it!

Now I wanna tell you about my day, what I was through this morning to this evening while I was outside. Hmm, I was taking an intensive course as information. To get a SEAT for me to sit in the university. LOL
I'll start with this :
I am actually a science class student at my school. For your information, I'm no longer a senior high school but I also haven't been a university student. I have taken my National Examination but I should still wait till June 13th 2009 to know whether I pass or not. (God, please, let me pass this exam...). But I still study since I want to be a university student. And to get one seat there, I really have to work hard because I want to take a very favorite faculty of most science students in my country, namely faculty of medicine. GRAOOOOOO. I should face the reality that almost 70% of students in my city (city, not country) want to get a seat there. Actually, being a doctor is not my dream. I really dream to be a fiction author or a scientist because it's so challenging though I can't hope to have much money if I work as what I dream to be. But my parents, especially my mother, really wants to be a doctor. My mother even shows her big hope on me in every conversation we have about that. At first, I fought them and told my mom that I would be what I want. But yeah, at last , especially when my mom suffered psychosomatic or whatever it is, I want to be what they like as long as they're happy. moreover, I can still be an author while I'm a doctor. :)
Well now I'm on the way for that. Could I wish you all prayed for me? please... :)

hnnn, I have a very unique idea that I never think before. It's inspired from a site that makes an article about who the queen of japanese music is. But mine is different. I want to discuss bout some of famous japanese singers. here they are :

mai kuraki,


namie amuro,


ayumi hamasaki,



utada hikaru,



koda kumi

I choose them because of some reasons.
I choose Mai Kuraki and Namie Amuro because they are my favorite japanese female singers (Mai is the most of course!!). They both are also famous and have their own markets and huge fan base. They usually hit big ten in oricon chart. Some of their songs and albums also often hit big 5 and big3 oricon chart.
I choose Ayumi, Utada and Koda because they are also famous and have a huge fan base. they also hit big 10 in oricon chart, especially Ayumi and Utada who often hit #1.
I will explain about them objectively, I hope. hehee. And also I will make some voting which one is your favorite, or anything it is. but next time!
Because I think I can't do it now on because I have a limited time to be online. so it will be continued next, may be next day, next week or even next month after I finish my test to get a seat in university. hahah. take care everybody...

Wishing on The Same Star-Namie Amuro


This is Amuro's 21st single. This is a slow pop song, a little bit ball. But this song is really great for your ear and really touchy. And it becomes more more touching my heart when I know the lyrics and also the translation. Here is the lyrics and the translation.
Romaji

Kokoro kara anata wo omou
Michibikareru mama ayunde kita michi
Kanashimi ni makenai you ni
Wasurenai yo donna toki mo
We'll never really be apart

We'll be wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon
Sora e to sashidashita
Kono yubi no mukou
Hitotsu ni musubaretai
Futari ga iru
Wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon

Doko mademo hateshinai kara
Yume no tsuzuki e to futari de modorou
Uchitsukeru hageshii ame ga
Agaru you ni inorimashou
We wait for lovely clear sky

We'll be wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon
Sora e to sashidashita
Kono yubi no mukou
Hitotsu ni musubaretai
Futari ga iru
Wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon

Kokoro wa kokoro wo motome au nukumori wo
Te wo tsunagi aruite yuku

Wishing on the same star

We'll be wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon
Sora e to sashidashita
Kono yubi no mukou
Hitotsu wo motome aeru
Futari ga ii
Sitting on the same star
Talking 'bout the same dream

We'll be wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon
Sora wo miagete
Yasashii kimochi omoidasu kara
Hitotsu ni musubarenai
Sonna toki mo
Wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon

English

I love you from my heart
I'll never forget
The road we followed
So the sorrow doesn't get to me
We'll never really be apart

We'll be wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon
On the other side of this finger
Pointed at the sky
Are the two of us
Wishing to become one
Wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon

Let's go back to the continuation
Of our endless dream
And pray that the hard rain that keeps falling
Will soon let up
We wait for lovely clear sky

We'll be wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon
On the other side of this finger
Pointed at the sky
Are the two of us
Wishing to become one
Wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon

Heart longs for heart, for warmth
We walk together holding hands

Wishing on the same star

We'll be wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon
On the other side of this finger
Pointed at the sky
Are the two of us
Longing to be one; I like us that way
Sitting on the same star
Talking 'bout the same dream

We'll be wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon
When I look up at the sky
I remember that tender feeling
Even at times
When we can't be one
Wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon

hhh, don't you think the same with me? the lyrics is very touching, and I really want to look at a star and then wish on it with someone... speciaalll... :)

Prom Night news

Hmmm, don't know how to start. Well, perhaps I start with this picture...



Well, I stood in the very right side in that picture.
if you still can't get clear of which one I am, I will give you my own picture. only myself in that picture. here it is...



this picture was taken when I was still at home, while the other picture above this one was taken in school.
I wore a gown at that time.

I didn't follow the whole programs of the prom, because my parents didn't allow me to go home after midnight. So I went home at about 11.00 pm. I really wanted to join with my friends, having more fun since after midnight the teachers have gone home and we'd be more free to dance or do anything we want as long as we still obey the norm. At first, I regretted going home soon.
But after I heard some news from my friend, well, I think what I had done is right. At about 00.00 they started the whole night crazy dance (I mean 'ajeb-ajeb')with DJ playing the music disc. They really enjoyed the music, danced as they like. They thought all teachers had gone home that some of the boys smoked (this is what I heard). They didn't know that there was still one teacher left in school watching over them. It is Sir Silalahi. hmmm. Seeing what was happening at that time, he asked the DJ to stop the music and then asked all students to go home right away. But they still stayed cool and didn't want to notice him. And suddenly, he rang our bell school, and made them go home. Really annoying I think.
Well, for me, a half parts of the prom are somewhat boring. The programs just made for the bands, but there were also a choir and a drama group show. People and I also had fun with our own group that we didn't pay attention to the MC. Poor them.
Well, that's all I can tell about my prom. Later I will come up with a new review.
:)
