the 2011 Costume Party

we (me and 7 of my friends) won the best group costume! yay!
it was our 2011 GTA Costume Party in Todai
at The Shoppes Marina Bay Sands Singapore.

since it's our company tradition to held costume party in
every our annual company outing last dinner,
this year theme was uniform!

and here we are,
8 Jakarta Japan Quotation team members,
with the Dalton Warblers Academy uniform!


it was such an excitement among us
to prepare costumes for this party.
and, it was a big fun too at the party since
every one came with their unique uniform,
here to let you know.. :)

the master chef duo!

this is what happened when Indonesian supporters
got to much excitement? :D

the Indonesian football supporters with our GM. :D

this year was fun with the uniform theme,
last year with the super heroes theme (you can see it on my
last year post), so, what's for next year? :D

it was quote strange since i wore the Dalton Warblers uniform,
which it's a part of Glee, but honestly, i have not watch this serial at all. :D
but yeah, who's care? i like the uniform! :P

ps: all the photos credit goes to An Seputri.
(since i'm still too lazy to edited all of my photos, hahaha)

what i need?

"since you never came"

"you are nice, you are great, you are smart,
you are strong, you are charming,
you are............"

maybe that's true i need it all,
but, may i say, i don't want it all?

Singaporean by Hipstamatic

it's called Hisptamatic,
an iPhone camera application which makes
iPhone users can have a photo with many incredible effects.

when departing to Singapore from my office,
it was just a blast,
"i want to capture Singaporean in grunge, dark and black and white!"

then, this is the results!

reduce the lights

forgive me for skip my Singapore outing photos post,
but one in my mind right now,
i want to share this photos first..
~~~~~~~
recently i posted many black and white pictures on Instagram
addicted to black and white scenes? feeling gloomy?
not in a good mood for colorful images?
don't know, and perhaps.

"jarak terjauh bukanlah dari kutub utara ke selatan,
melainkan ketika mata kita tak pernah bertemu.
aku menatapmu, dan kamu menatapnya."

"one day you asked me which one is more important, you or my life?
and i said it's my life,
and you walked away not knowing that you are my life"

"we need the dark to see the light"
how long we need?
how long we want to stay in the dark side?
watching the light only from the dark..

forever?

coming up..

coming up soon,
our 2011 GTA Indonesia Company Outing photos posts! :P

when i can't wait to..

another Moengga's silhouette..

"if everything has been written down, so why worry, we say..
it's you and me with a little left of sanity.."

do you remember our conversations in Twitter?
we did just keep replying but not mentioned our id,
just to make sure no one beside you and me can understand that
we are talking to each other..

i found that you deleted those tweets already,
but mine still remain, will remain forever. :)

where is the light?

less the light, bring the dark.
did this on my recent posts in Instagram.

"Throw away the light, the definitions, and say what you see in the dark"

"whatever your life's work is, do it well" - Martin Luther King, Jr.

this photo is a special post for a friend of mine who really loves wine! :)

aku kamu..

lagi duduk diem di salah satu lobi East Mall Grand Indonesia,
duduk sendirian. gak lama dateng empat anak muda (abege?)
duduk di bangku seberang.
cuma karena posisi duduk, gw jadi ngeliatin mereka,
tingkah laku mereka, becandaan mereka.

dan emang dasar tangan ga lepas dari iPhone,
jepret-jepret deh. :P


9 candid shots!
a couple, so young, so active, and funny!

posted this on Instagram and many of my friends liked it.
some of them said "what a perfect photo for a saturday nite like this!"

then, i stunned.
yes, it's Saturday nite at that time.
and i'm alone.

posted this photo with title:
"aku dan kamu, you and me, あたしとあなた"

it's only me,
and, where are you?

rasa..

ini rasa yang ku jadikan kata-kata..
apa yang ku rasa, demi bisa kau ketahui..

ini cinta yang jadi kata-kata..
ini cinta yang ku rasa.. dan juga kamu rasa?

kamu yang tahu, kamu yang rasa..

and so it goes, so it goes..

both of us need time..
what an enjoyment it was..
what a lovely time it was.. and now, the future?

dear sunrise..
dear my sunrise..

dear sunset..
dear my sunset...

i can see you.. i can feel you..
i can feel, i miss you..
missing you, much..

it's a sorrow?
no..

from the beginning, i knew this won't be easy.
packed a light heart, to climb this mountain.

to see the light, we need the dark.
as i said, wrote and think about it...

to hope, is to wait? you know my answer.
i've told you and i'm keeping my words..

愛の歌

how do you treasure the things you love?
how are you supposed to realize the things you should know?
how do you tell someone you loved, how much you love her/him?

大切なことをどれだけ大切にできてるんだろう?

気づくべきことをどれだけ気づけているんだろう?

愛してる人にどれだけ愛してると伝えてるんだろう?

吸い込まれそうな星屑の空に今日がまた消えた.

どれだけの人が共感を一つ口にできただろう?
どれだけの人が水も飲めずにやり過ごしただろう?
どれだけの子どもが学校へ行き家族と眠っただろう?
どれだけの子どもが盗んでつかまり路上で死んだだろう?

song of love....
こんなにも地球はまるいのに分けあえてるかな、

愛せてるかなあなた、あなたのことを..

song of love....
神様や政治家じゃなくて届けたいのは、

変えられるのはあなた、あなただから..

Let's sing a song of love.... song of love....
こんなにも地球はまるいのに分けあえてるかな、

愛せてるかなあなた、あなたのことを..

song of love....　
神様や政治家じゃなくて届けたいのは、

変えられるのはあなた、あなただから..

Let's sing a song of love...
大切なことをどれだけに大切にできてるんだろう?
愛してる人を、どれだけ愛してると伝えてるんだろう?
吸い込まれそうな星屑の空に今日がまた消えた..

song of love.... let's sing a song of love....

- song of love by Kaori Tsushima-

and so it goes...

"i dropped a tear in the ocean, and whenever they find it,
i'll stop loving you, only then"

"...and so it goes..."




- right now i'm doing a Japanese song translation.
it's been a long time since the last time i did it during my college time.
seems my, very very average, Japanese ability
already disappeared. hahaha!
the song used so many, the only Japanese could understand it well,
Japanese vocab and sentences.
but, i'm doing my best! :)

sunrise or sunset?

once i asked you, sunrise or sunset? :)
and you answered,
"prefer sunrise than sunset,
but i prefer the things after sunset than sunrise"

this is a sunrise, right in front of my bedroom's window on that day,
and the caption, "a golden sunrise for you"

and this one? a sunrise in a place,
which you know it better than me of course. :)
"good morning to you, dear.."

me : let see a sunset?
you : i don't know what to say.. #sigh
--------------
me : i'll catch a sunset today.
you : envy you.
me: i'll do it for you.
you: the sunset?
me: yup, the sunset.

and when i'm on the beach for the sunset,
you came, and became my real sunset.
the most charming one, than the beautiful one captured in this photo. :)

"i miss you, my sunrise, my sunset.."

君を見つけた

もしも, 僕の願いがかなうなら、
君の悲しみを僕の胸の中に注ぎ込んでくれる？
その痛みならば 僕は絶えられる..

ありがとう、
好きだよ、
好きだよ、

笑ってよ、泣くなよ..

伝えたい言葉は止めどなく溢れる、
何度も、何度でも、僕は君に恋をする..

君の願いがかなうなら
全てささげると心から言える..

また会おう、御免ね、好きだよ..
恋しい苦しい、愛しいじゃたりない、
何度も、何度でも、僕は君と恋をする..

ありがとう、
好きだよ、好きだよ..

笑ってよ、泣くなよ、
おこんなよ..

未来絵がく地図も無くしてしまう 、
ちっぽけな僕だけれど君を見つけた..

they're on you

time is gonna take my mind and carry it far away where i can fly..
the depth of life will dim my temptation to live for you..
if I were to be alone, silence would rock my tears..
'cause it's all about love and,
i know better, how life is a waving feather..

i put my arms around you,
and i know that i'll be leaving soon..
my eyes are on you, 'cause they're on you,
and you see that i can't stop shaking..

i look down to hide from your eyes..
'cause what i feel is so sweet and i'm scared that even my own breath,
oh could burst it if it were a bubble..
and i'd better dream if i have to struggle..

i put my arms around you,
and i hope that i will do no wrong..

my eyes are on you, they're on you,
and i hope that i won't hurt you..

and i hope that i will do no wrong..
'cause my eyes are on you..


they're on you..
