CHA DO RI's Time

Reading Yahoo News for Thursday, October 23, 2014, I was interested first with the article about Ahok, the Governor of DKI Jakarta. However, what I was interested the most was the first paragraph that describes about “Diwali celebration in India House, Jalan Taman Suropati Nomor 6, Menteng, Jakarta Pusat ”. Diwali, the Festival of Lights, is celebrated by Hindu as the victory of light over darkness and good over evil. They will clean the house the day before Diwali. On Diwali nights, they dress up in new clothes and light up diyas (oil lamp) and join family puja (worship) . They also exchange gifts, eat sweets, and lit the fireworks. It is also the time for family and friends to bond relationship. Although I never come to see it myself, it sounds nice, with the fireworks and sweets. It seems like Christmas Day for me ^^ May this cheer and joy, this merriment and mirth of this divine and blessing festival, may surround you forever … Happy Dipawali ^^

When I am down and, oh, my soul, so weary; When troubles come and my heart burdened be; Then I am still and wait here in the silence, Until you come and sit awhile with me. You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains; You raise me up to walk on stormy seas; I am strong when I am on your shoulders; You raise me up to more than I can be. September is a though month … Mount Slamet was rumbling … No rain for the season as no glimpse of hope for me … Events and birthdays came from the beloved people … Trial came with health problem as well … Planning was just plan … Suddenly I remembered of this song and was tearing up listening to the first verse … It’s so much me … BUT don’t count just the bad things … I also have to count all the good things that happen each day … SEE, God gives you more good things than the bad one … That’s how you should give thanks to God even for the smallest thing as you breath … ^^

Malcolm Kelley (born 1992 – actor and singer) & Tony Oller (born 1991 – actor and singer-song writer). MK and TO formed an American duo with their 2 nd single “Classic” released on June, 2013. I found this cool song when I was surfing the comments left on Roommates fan page in kengsub.com … And I just realized that I missed many things in the lyric because I know nothing what it talks about ^^ Far below, you can find pictures of what this song refers to...

This morning I got a gift from my friend, Irma, in the office. She just brought a wrap of tissue. And colorful candies were in the inside ^^ “These are for you to have a sweet day!” Isn’t it so sweet? Thank you, Ir ^^ Chocolate is really helpful to cheer you. Hopefully the sweetness can defeat the bitterness of my days … ^^

I was always thinking that they have similar face ... happy end of June ^^

This MV is from Sara Bareilles, entitled BRAVE ... and at the first time I saw the video, I was tearing up ... possibly because of the scene itself where some people dancing bravely and shamelessly in public place ... something interesting that I was tempted to do but can't ... there was an old man dancing in the gym ... a fat black guy dancing in library ... a guy with long hair dancing in mall ... a woman dancing on sidewalk ... a big black woman dancing in market ... so, are they brave? or shameless? however, I wanna be a part of them ^^

Jeongmal jeongmal jeongmal daebak! It was very very refreshing watching this Korean Drama! Even I just have been watching until episode 11 when I wrote this posting! It’s highly recommended guys ^^ You know what makes it so refreshing?! Because you can watch Song Ji Hyo cursed freely in this drama – even after shooting for Running Man, she can enjoy cursing. Watching her in this drama is just like watching the true Song Ji Hyo in RM. I’m her fan because she is figure of tough, strong woman & capable of many things. Even she is braver than men. That’s why she becomes an Ace in RM.
