Bad Day

Posted by ver0n1c4 at 08:33 AM on April 3, 2006.

Where is the moment when needed the most?
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
you tell me your blue sky's fade to grey
you tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day

(Oh.. Holiday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing it turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You see what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Had a bad day
Had a bad day

strange

Posted by ver0n1c4 at 10:47 AM on April 7, 2006.

it's strange how people could change what comes from their mouths in less than half a day...

it's strange how people could behave inconsistently in front of different people...

it's strange how people could backstab each other though good and wise words came from their mouths at other events...

it's strange how I never understand them...

Di mana malumu???

Footprints

Posted by ver0n1c4 at 11:15 AM on April 13, 2006.

If you can choose, what kind of footprints do you prefer to have? I'm sure most of use will prefer the good one so that everyone walking behind us will see that we've done very well. If possible, we also wanted to be seen as a good role model so that everyone will remember us as a good example.

I'm not saying that we can't leave bad footprints sometimes. Tak ada gading yang tak retak. No man is perfect. No matter how good he/she is, one time he/she might stumble. That's so human. No one can avoid it unless our Lord, Jesus Christ of course.

Despite all our weaknesses nobody likes to be known as bad example or maybe the-one-who-must-not-be-followed. But in this life, I met at least 2 persons who purposely do mistakes which are definitely very stupid. It's not that I'm better than them. It's not that I'm really perfectionist. It's just I know they DON'T do it accidentally. They did it with a very cunning purpose sighzzz....

And btw you're successful in making me fed up and pissed off. But not long... Just until I post this entry.

Good Friday

Posted by ver0n1c4 at 04:40 AM on April 14, 2006.

Kalo dipikir2 kenapa Jumat ini namanya Good Friday? Karena harusnya Best Friday ^.^

I don't know why Jesus loves me
I don't know why He cares
I don't know why He sacrificed His life
Oh but I'm glad, I'm glad He did

Where would I be if Jesus didn't love me
Where would I be if Jesus didn't care
Where would I be if He hadn't sacrifice His life
Oh but I'm glad, I'm glad He did

He left His mighty throne and glory
To bring to us redemption story
And He died but He rose again just for you and me
Oh and I'm glad, I'm glad He did

Look Around

Posted by ver0n1c4 at 07:38 AM on April 18, 2006.

I saw a man working very hard under the sun.... sweating and looks very tired. How can I not be grateful with what I have right now. I'll smile more. Not because I'm luckier than others but if they can smile, so should I.

You know, after reading "Finding God in Unexpected Places", I realize that the more you see all around you, the more you can find Him even in many simple things.

Working is indeed more fun than schooling =P

The One with Reuni NTU ISCF

Posted by ver0n1c4 at 09:02 AM on April 22, 2006.

Hari ini bangun pagi, trus makan, ke bank bentar, and bobo lagi! Ampe si Marlene sms juga masih ga bangun... trus jam 2an gitu memaksa bangun deh soalnya mesti nyuci! Matahari emank ga bersahabat akhir2 ini.... bisa2nya ujan gede banget sampe jalan pake payung aja becek. Untung gue ga gampang2 naik taksi.... Kalo ga menipis dengan sempurna deh tabungan *hiperbola*

Hari Sabtu emank selalu gue tetapkan sebagai hari bermalas2an. Ato nama bekennya hari Nobita hahaha. However, ada yang beda sejak tadi pagi bangun. Ada rasa2 seneng plus happy plus bahagia gitu *sama semua kali* And tepat sekali!!! Bukan hari ini yang istimewa... tapi kemaren karena The One with Reuni NTU ISCF.

Atas request dr pembaca (Jeko), gue ceritain panjang lebar deh tentang kemaren hehe... Sebenernya mau tunggu dapet foto2nya tapi entah kapan baru dapet =P Reuni nya mulai jam 730 officially. Gue janjian sama seksi repot reuni kali ini jam 6an gitu. Tapi jam 6 kurang catering nya telpon kalo mereka dah sampe di Northvale. Gile bikin jadi panik aja... Jadi gue cepet2 deh settle urusan sama mereka. Trus baru deh bermunculan seksi repot yang laen di antaranya Mamat and Gani (panitia), Oon and Dian (MC), Gama (gitaris), Cimel (bawa projector), Teguh (tuan rumah plus peminjam laptop, speaker, kamera).

Sebelum jam 7 udah lumayan banyak yang telp bilang mungkin bakal telat or bahkan ga dateng krn mesti OT, kemaleman, and ujan deres bgt *untung di daerah Barat ga ujan deres hehehe* Ya buat gue sih gue pengen yang dateng sebanyak2nya. You know reuni bukan acara yang bisa ada sewaktu2. Jadi bakal sedikit kecewa aja kalo yang dateng ga sebanyak yang diharapkan. Anyway, akhirnya total yang dateng ada 34 orang.

Dimulai dengan makan2 dulu, dilanjutkan dengan nyanyi2 dan doa pembuka, akhirnya sampe di acara yang ditunggu2... GAMES! Kayanya dah lama bangetttt sejak terakhir kali maen2 games yang seru. Waktu di NTU ISCF dulu kita sering banget maen games, di fellowship *acara khusus*, Camp, and Outing. Hehe jadi berasa makin kangen sama NTU ISCF.

Games pertamanya ada banyak foto2, trus dari foto itu dikasi pertanyaan2 baik yang nyambung maupun yang ga nyambung sama fotonya. Ternyata lagi, biar dah kerja semua ga berubah kalo urusan maen games! Semua ga mau kalah and masih pada ancur semua haha... Sampe sakit perut ketawanya ^.^

Games kedua tuh maen ular tangga tapi di setiap step ada instruksinya. Gue yakin banget cuman ada 1 orang yang bisa ciptain nama2 sekonyol ini =P Ada tebak gaya (No talk action only), tebak gambar (So you think you can draw), Siapa cepat dia dapat (Who fast they can -__- eh ternyata salah... Who fast they get harusnya hihi thx Dian ^.^), Surprise (from MC), and Free (means you can choose one of the steps).

Kita main sampe ga sadar kalo dah 930. Time always runs very fast at happy times. So we need to stop playing and go on with the next one. Berikutnya sharing2 dari alumni2. Ada Lando, Chimit, Ai, Eddy (import dr Malang), plus DM and Suhandi (tetua2 ISCF)

Acara penutup buat reuni kali ini adalah liat power point presentation yang isinya foto2 jaman kita masih undergraduate dulu, diakhiri dengan puisi singkat dari Mamat. I agree with Oon, without Mamat and his poetry sense, our reuni would be dull. Di penghujung acara, kita semua nyalain lilin yang bentuknya NTU ISCF dengan harapan sebagai alumni, kita terus mengingat semangat dan kekeluargaan yang dulu pernah menyala di hati kita sebagai keluarga besar NTU ISCF. Plus mengingat adik2 kecil =P di ISCF yang sekarang juga mengalami suka duka yang kira2 sama seperti kita dulu. Arghhhh so sweet!!!

Thanks to You Lord for giving us such a sweet blessing in our university days and giving us a chance to remember those sweet and bitter memories yesterday. Also thanks buat semua yang dah berpartisipasi dalam mensukseskan acara reuni kemarin. God bless our fellowship.

And now it's almost 5 o'clock. I'll happily start packing and go home. What a beautiful day. Icho Ritoru No Namida!!!! I'm coming...

Ichi Rittoru No Namida

Posted by ver0n1c4 at 05:21 AM on April 28, 2006.

Woohoo... though I only watched until the 8th episode, I claim that this is the best Jdorama I've ever seen. Or maybe the best drama ever. It's a Japanese drama about Ikeuchi Aya who has an incureable and life-threatening disease called Spinocerebellar Degeneration Disease. This disease causes the person to lose control of their body. First she won't be able to walk properly. Then writing or speaking or even eating would be extremely hard. It's like everything she has will be stolen away from her one by one. And one day she will end up in a deep sleep and never wake up again.

And this drama is based on true story. The girl's name is Kitou Aya. She was 15 when she knew that she was that unlucky person. And she fought the disease until she was 25 and died at 1988. She continuesly wrote a diary called A Diary with Tears until she can't hold a pen any longer.

Due to this illness, she had given up so much. She must use wheel chair. She couldn't join club activities anymore. She even had to  transfer to the disability school. At first she asked why it had to be her. This is a rare disease with unknown cause. At last she must be satisfied with the word "fate" as the answer. I don't know whether I'm agree with the word "fate" or not. All I've learned is that everyone do have their own purpose in this world. So the word "success" gains its meaning when you accomplish your purpose. And yes she accepted the fact very well. She knows her weaknesses and she tried to find what she can do despite all of these.

Supportive. That's the precise word for her family. She can't survive without her family for sure. And friends. I don't know how true the story about her school friends is. All I know, the story about her lover is a made up story. Kitou Aya's real mother wants an imaginer guy to be her lover since she never experiences love before. Honestly I'm a bit disappointed knowing this fact. I like the character of Asou Haruto especially at the scene when he called Aya's cell phone for the first time. On the other hand her father can't get through her cell phone. It's so cute and lovely ^.^

Asumi-chan. It's a name of an older girl who suffered the same disease. Aya met her at disability school and become her roommate. One thing she said is, "Having this disease is not unlucky. It's just inconvenience." Ah this sounds very touching right? She said it very slowly, yet still with a smile on her face.

Too many things we don't like in this world. We have many choices as well. We can complain, we can be angry, we can cry and pity ourselves too. Or we can overcome our own situation and be a winner. It's true she died in the end. But her life is not meaningless. She has accomplished her purpose and be a great motivator for us, the healthy and lucky people.

~The purpose is not to run away. It is to chase our dreams~
