Merrimack River

Sekadar keisengan semata di kala hati ini sedang gundah gulana *alah*... Hmm, secara tak sengaja, ketemu ini di status Facebook salah seorang teman, di-klik, ditunggu buffering-nya, didengarkan, ternyata SUKA!! Hahaha... Seperti kata teman saya itu, lagu ini keren banget, di satu lagu, macam-macam dan ganti-ganti kuncinya... Epic song deh!! It sounds magical and waltz-ing... :D

P.S.: Cocok untuk lullaby atau waltz dance sama pasangan mungkin... :p

Okay, tidak menunggu lama-lama, inilah Merrimack River by Miss Mandy Moore...

Merrimack River
By Mandy Moore (2009)

Restless to begin

A wave comes crashing in
The band on stage is tuning
Jacarandas are blooming

Your face sketched in the trees
Puts my mind at ease
Beneath the water frozen
The Merrimack River is flowing
Thunder rolling over

Don’t say you’re not amazed when you know you are
And don’t say you’re not afraid when you know you are

Rows of boys and girls
Line up to see the world
Candy-coated promise
Just out of reach when you want it

Give me something sweet
Bring me to the brink
I’ll leave without hesitation
To a world without limitation
Rock me patient, slowly

Don’t say you’re not amazed when you know you are
And don’t say you’re not afraid when you know you are
You know you are

A world that moves too fast
A mouth of broken glass
It may not seem so painful
By January, the rain will swallow
Change will follow

Don’t say you’re not amazed when you know you are
Don’t say you’re not afraid when you know you are
You know you are
I know you are

Random Posting: Grateful

A year ago, It was my last day in high school, a fantastic moment in my life... Hmm, I still don't realize that I've been a medical school student... :D

High school never ends!!!

But life will go on... I'm happy in my place now, as a medical school student and as an alumni of the best high school (for me, of course).... :D

Thank you so much, high school... :)

Simple Storyline

As I've mentioned before that you haven't seen the last of me... :D

Hmm, seriously, I'm confused about what I want to tell here... My life isn't interesting enough to share with the others... World is still amazing even I'm not there, isn't it? But, actually, I just want to share my story that maybe can fill one part of this great world... :D

First thing, that Last week I had my first anatomy practice in my medical school (sounds weird enough that I just had it in my last first year), but it's really cool... (Even when I arrived home, I directly washed my clothes, bags, and took a bath.. I also didn't forget to spray my new bag with air freshener... Hihihi...)

Second thing? Hmm, stagnancy... Aha, I want to make a painting again... (It's so random...)

Third thing? Hmm, I still can't enjoy my friendship here... It's tortured me a lot... I won't tell it here, just let it be my own, God, and maybe several friends... :D

Next thing? Hmm, maybe I like this new sentence that I've heard in Rachel Ray Show,"If a cat is obsessed with lingeries, maybe it's one of the members of Pussy Cat Dolls..." Haha, it's more and more random...

Okay, to make it simple, maybe I'll end this random posting here...

Arrivederci...

You Haven't Seen the Last of Me

Hmm, I don't want post anything today, but I want to share one song that I love recently.. It's from Burlesque and sung by Cher.. Why do I love it? It's simple, it teaches me to fight and struggle in life and don't ever give up.. Hmm, just enjoy it...

You Haven't Seen the Last of Me
By Cher in Burlesque (2010)

 

Feeling broken
Barely holding on
But just there's something so strong
Somewhere inside me.
And I am down, but I'll get up again.
Don't count me out just yet

I've been brought down to my knees
And I've been pushed right past the point of breaking,
But I can take it.
I'll be back -
Back on my feet
This is far from over
You haven't seen the last of me.
You haven't seen the last of me.

They can
Say that
I won't stay around
I gonna stand my ground
You're not gonna stop me.
You don't know me ,you don't know who I am.
Don't count me out so fast

I've been brought down to my knees
And I've been pushed right past the point of breaking,
But I can take it.
I'll be back -
Back on my feet
This is far from over
You haven't seen the last of me.

There will be no fade-out
This is not the end
I'm down now
And I'll be standing on top again.
Times are hard but
I was built tough.
I'm gonna show you all what I'm made of.

I've been brought down to my knees
I've been pushed right past the point of breaking,
But I can take it.
I'll be back -
Back on my feet
This is far from over

I AM FAR FROM OVER

You haven't seen the last of me.

No, no, I'm going nowhere
I'm staying right here
Oh, no you won't see my fear
I'm not kidding around
Can't stop me.
Its not the end
You haven't seen the last of me
Oh, no -
You haven't seen the last of me.
You haven't seen the last of me.

Analogi Pensil dan Matematika

Hmm, jadi sebenarnya saya mendapatkan isi posting ini pada saat saya pergi ke vihara di hari Minggu yang lalu di mana seorang bhikkhu berkata tentang dua hal ini... Sebenarnya, perkataan ini bukanlah inti ceramah hari itu, tapi entah mengapa dua hal ini sangat membekas di hati saya... Hahaha.... Kata-kata ini diutarakan oleh Bhante Kamsai (mudah-mudahan tidak ada kesalahan pengejaan)...

Pertama-tama, ia mengatakan bahwa pensil adalah alat tulis yang pintar... Mengapa? Karena si pensil ini memiliki kemampuan yang luar biasa dibandingkan dengan alat tulis lainnya...
Dengan pensil, kita bisa menulis banyak hal, tapi ketika kita sudah kehilangan ketajaman, kita bisa merautnya dan menajamkannya, akhirnya kita bisa menulis kembali... Begitu pun ketika pensil itu patah seperti semangat kita, kita bisa membangkitkannya kembali dengan rautan...
Kehebatan lainnya? Ketika kita salah, pensil sudah menyediakan alat bantu penghapus di bagian ekornya, begitu pun kita salah dalam hidup, kita bisa mengingat bahwa kita harus menghapusnya dan juga memperbaikinya menjadi lebih baik lagi...

Luar biasa bukan pensil itu...


Selanjutnya adalah tentang matematika, ilmu ini sangatlah luar biasa karena mengajarkan kita tentang hidup dari operator-operator aritmatikanya, (+, -, x, dan /)
Ada banyak makna yang tersimpan di dalamnya, seperti:
Ketika sedang bersedih, merugi, ingatlah bahwa dalam matematika ada tanda kurang (-)
Ketika sedang senang atau beruntung, ada tanda tambah (+)
Ketika sedang senang luar biasa atau untung luar biasa, ada tanda kali (x)
Terakhir, ketika kita sedang rugi luar biasa, di sanalah kita menemukan tanda bagi (/) --> di sini kita juga belajar untuk berbagi mungkin (ini interpretasi pribadi saya)

Lagi-lagi, luar biasa bukan?!


Di sini, saya hanya ingin berbagi tentang hal-hal yang saya dapat beberapa hari yang lalu dan mengajak kita semua untuk lebih menyadari intrik-intrik kehidupan dengan analogi-analogi sederhana dari benda-benda di sekitar kita...

Jadi, bisa dilihat 'kan betapa menariknya pensil dan matematika itu??
