God Will Make A Way

I dunno what to write today.. cos I dun think much today.. Well, except when I was working.. :D but it's done now.. *unless if my senior tomorrow want me to add something more..* anyway.. now i feel peace in my mind.. hehe.. which is kinda rare.. and I got this song kept playing in me.. :D

--- God Will Make A Way ---

God will make a way
When there seems to be no way
He works in ways we cannot see
He will make a way for me

He will be my guide
Hold me closely to His side
With love and strength for each new day
He will make a way
He will make a way

By a roadway in the wilderness, He'll lead me
And rivers in the desert will I see
Heaven and earth will fade
But His word will still remain
And He will do something new today

------------------------


and He ease my mind too \(^o^)/
Hope you feel it too.. anyone of youz.. :D
Well, unconsciously I've been singing this song till yesterday.. or maybe few days before.. and I realized it when my cousin ask me about that song.. she said I sang it during shower and breakfast.. hehe.. so I guess I've been starting these few days with a smile and this song \(^o^)/

5 Simple Rules 2 B Happy

As I went thru my old stuff today, I found some of my print out emails.. I used to stick them up on my bedroom wall just cos they're full of beautiful words and meaningful too.. I'll post one for youz.. :D some of youz might have seen it before.. I, myself, even read it hundred times before.. over and over.. hehe..

--- FIVE SIMPLE RULES TO BE HAPPY ---

God didnt promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but God did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears and light for the way.

Disappointments are like road humps, they slow you down a bit, but you enjoy the smooth road afterwards. Dont stay on the humps too long. MOVE ON!!

When you feel down because you didnt get what you want, just sit tight and be happy, because God is thinking of something better to give you.

When something happens to you, good or bad, consider what it means. There's a purpose to life's events, to teach you how to laugh more or not to cry too hard.

You cant make someone love you, all you can do is be someone who can be loved, the rest is up to the person your worth.

The measure of love is when you love without measure. In life there are very rare chances that you'll meet the person you love and loves you in return. So once you have it, dont ever let go. The chance might never come your way again.

It's better to lose your pride to the one you love, than to lose the one you love because of pride. We spend too much time looking for the right person to love or finding fault with those we already love, when instead we should be perfecting the love we give.

When you truly care for someone, you dont look for faults, you dont look for answers, you dont look for mistakes. INSTEAD, you fight the mistakes, you accept the faults, and you overlook the excuses.

Never abandon an old friend. You will never find one who can take his place. Friendship is like wine, it gets better as it grows older.

REMEMBER THE FIVE SIMPLE RULES TO BE HAPPY:
1. FREE YOUR HEART FROM HATRED
2. FREE YOUR MIND FROM WORRIES
3. LIVE SIMPLY
4. GIVE MORE
5. EXPECT LESS


No one can go back and make a brand new start. Anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.


--------------------------

Well, guess I know now why I havent been happy lately.. I've been expecting too much and worrying about small stuff very often.. and because of that, life just seemed so complicated..!! *sigh*

Life Goes On

So I went to the church last nite as planned.. but my mind wasnt cooperating.. I was just sitting there, listening to the first reading.. and I dunno why but I suddenly remembered my Dad and kept thinking about him for half way thru the mass.. He hasnt been feeling well lately, although it's just a fever.. but it made me realize as I watch him.. that he now looks much older and those lines in his face.. I suddenly can see his tired face.. kinda makes me wanna cry.. he's been working hard all of his life for the family.. and what do I have in return?

And my mom.. I sometimes argue with her.. (this is still considered good, remembering how often I used to do that.. ALMOST ALWAYS!) .. it's getting better right? .. Anyway, I used to stare at her teenage-picture.. so different.. she's not as strong as she used to be.. she gets tired easily lately.. but she's now visiting my sister.. 24 hours flight away.. for 2 months!! She's fine there.. happy playing with grandson for sure hehe.. I just hope she wont get too tired..

Then I think about death.. of course I know people gets old and God will call us back to His place one day.. but thinking about it really scares me off.. thinking about losing my parents or any of my loved ones.. I'm not ready for that.. knowing that I still count on them in almost everything.. It is bad since I'm all grown up now physically, but still a child inside.. right? .. I remember when my Dad's mom died.. that was the first time and the only time I saw my dad cried.. and then when my Mom's parents died.. my Mom cries a lot, but that time she cried like she never cried before.. they cried and I know their hearts are broken badly.. but they still tried to be strong.. they didnt lose themselves.. will I be that strong too? I'm so afraid I wont..

Sometimes I think that it'd be much nicer if I die first (egoistically thinking).. then I wonder if it do really happen.. will someone care? will someone miss me? .. well, even if anyone else doesnt, at least my family would.. and my parents.. isnt it just gonna hurt them more? so maybe it just aint fair for them.. I gotta stop my ego!!! actually I should stop thinking about this and let life be.. God knows what He's doing.. and whatever it is, it must be for the best..

Then suddenly the priest's words caught my mind.. He was preaching about what Ash Wednesday means.. Why do they draw cross out of ash on our forehead? Ash or dust is meaningless in our life.. we walk on it.. the wind easily blows it away.. and now they put it on our forehead? The priest said our forehead is where our mind is.. and the ash reminds us that we are all made from dust.. and that IS what we'll be in the end.. reminds us to keep low-profile, dont do big for the good things we do, be humble and not to look down on other people.. for we are all the same in God's eyes..

Well, my mind stopped worrying just about there.. still have many questions left unanswered but I felt enlightened already.. went home in a much better feeling.. then about 10 pm.. my house area got blackened out for around 2 hours.. these few days they gonna cut off electricity in certain areas here.. there was no air-con for a good night sleep, but it didnt matter to me, I felt good and so I was asleep like a baby till morning hehehe.. \(^o^)/

    Java Jazz Festival 2006

    Pada tau gak kalo tanggal 3-5 Maret 2006 ini bakalan ada Java Jazz Festival di Jakarta? tepatnya di Jakarta Convention Center (JCC) ... Persembahan dari Dji Sam Soe..

    Sebenernya gw dah liat iklannya sejak lama sih.. sejak bulan Januari kalo gak salah.. trus pake ada acara preview nya dulu segala.. ada James Brown, ada Dave Koz, ada Incognito, ada Brand New Heavies, ada Mezzoforte, ada Earth Wind & Fire, ada Eric Benet, dll.. n bukan cuma artis luar kok.. artis indo juga ada.. misalnya Mocca, Bali Lounge, Blue Savana, Glenn, Marcell, Shakila, Tangga, banyak deh!!! lebih lengkapnya liat sendiri deh di sitenya: JJF 2006.. gw sih nonton pas Earth Wind & Fire ama Brand New Heavies nyanyi tuh.. enaaaaaaaaaaakkkkkkkk...

    Nah.. gara2 itu deh makanya gw kepingiiiiinnn banget nonton tuh acara... abis lagunya enak2 sih.. artisnya juga bagus2 tuh.. lokasinya juga deket pula dari rumah gw.. jalan kaki juga bisa.. hiks.. tapi entah napa, niat gw cuma sampe situ.. kayaknya ngebayangin gw ada di tengah2 konser.. bisa2 malah jadi pusing ngeliat orang banyak banget gitu.. *sensitif ama keramean.. payah deh gw..* ... eh tapi kalo konser jazz itu duduk yah? kalo duduk sih masih mendingan.. another reason for me not going.. I HATE TO GO ALONE... and emang gak ada yang bisa nemenin gw nih.. di keluarga gw gak ada deh yang demen banget ama jazz.. mama suka sih, tapi itu juga suka gara2 kebiasaan tiap hari denger gw stel lagu2 jazz.. kalo papa, lebih prefer blues.. n adek gw, kayaknya sih lebih prefer kalo penyanyinya cantik.. hhh... temen2? sepertinya jarang deh temen2 gw yang suka ama jazz... right guys? *kasian deh nike..*

    Well.. kata manajer gw.. bentar lagi Lionel Richie juga bakalan dateng yah? acaranya diadain ama A-Mild ... seneng sih.. tapi kayaknya gw gak terlalu niat buat nontonnya.. tapi kalo Jamie Cullum yang dateng, gw pasti niat banget mao nonton..!! kayaknya itu jadi keharusan deh.. kalo perlu, paksain siapa gitu buat nemenin gw.. hehehe..

    Pop Out

    Wondering what the title is about? it's about my eyes.. Cant stop thinking about them for days now..!!

    Last night I took an aspirin right before I went to bed.. and my head felt much better this morning.. I was thinking "no more worries for the day" .. but now, it's aching again.. my eyes too... lately have bags under my eyes *I rarely have them!!!* .. and they r dark too!!! hiks..

    I think I had enough sleep already.. but why??? too much sleep? I dun think so.. maybe I just watch too much monitor and Desperate Housewives *kinda makes me scared of getting married* hehe.. Anyway.. I can feel my heartbeat in my eyes.. it's just NOT comfortable! yet I feel better if I cover my eyes with my hands.. and pressed them... but then I start to feel them.. feels like my eyes are bigger than before... are they someday gonna pop out? is it possible?

    I heard a story once.. forgot who.. maybe it was my friend's friend's sister.. she got minus eyes.. but she ignored it.. and her right eye came out.. or maybe almost came out.. and she got blind now.. definitely I dun want that to happen to me... huaaaaaaaaaa...

    Maybe I just think too much.. maybe my eyes just tired from watching the monitor too long.. they are just not used to it... I just hope they will adapt soon.. hiks..

    God please dun let that happen to me.. pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee... :(

    Nike Stress??

    Eh tadi gw lupa username n password nya nih website loh.. hehe.. *kebanyakan blog sih!!* .. tapi untung sekarang dah bisa masuk n nambahin cerita deh!! *abisnya ada yang protes sih kalo gw tuh jarang update blog gw* :P

    Uwah hari ini rasanya gak enak banget... Sejak Jumat kepala gw kleyengan.. gak pusing sih, tapi serasa melayang aja... ini semua gara2 seharian nempel komputer.. dah dari pagi ampe sore kerja di depan monitor.. malemnya malah maen game PangYa!!! Akhirnya, kalo melek serasa melayang, kalo merem serasa muter2... sekarang ini, gw ngeliat HP.. kirim sms or terima telp bawaannya langsung gak enak nih kepala...

    Sabtu lalu juga begitu.. jalan2 ama Ie ie ke Plaza Indonesia.. n ngeliat orang2 tuh gw agak blur.. gak bener2 ngeliat mereka.. gak tau ekspresi mereka kayak apa.. yah cuma sekedar liat aja kalo ada orang, tuh orang lagi ngapain, pake baju warna apa.. dll... trus gw pikir mungkin gw kurang olah raga nkali... jadi abis dari PI rencananya mao fitness... eh belakangan batal gara2 kayaknya kalo fitness bisa2 gw malah tambah teler... trus berdua Ie ie, akhirnya creambath.. manjain diri banget kan? Seenggaknya setelah creambath, kepala jadi lebih enakan... n Ie ie bilang itu tuh gejala stress...

    Gw stress?? oh yah? mungkin juga.. tapi stress terhadap apa?? emang sih akhir2 ini gw sering mikir "apa yang sebaiknya gw lakuin? keputusan apa yang musti gw ambil? kalo gini, gw bakal nyesel gak yah?" .. yang semuanya cuma masuk di otak n tetep tinggal di sana... gak keluar hasil apa2.. gak ada jawaban sama sekali buat pertanyaan2 gw itu... apa itu yah?

    Tadi gw juga ada meeting... n manajer gw itu ngomong apa.. rasanya cuma masuk n keluar lagi.. gak ada yang kecerna ama gw.. rasanya blank..?? ... ngebaca tulisan di papan tulis.. emang tulisannya kecil, but normally I can read it.. and this time? mata nya sampe sakit dipaksa buat ngebaca tuh tulisan.. akhirnya bukannya dengerin omongan manajer, gw malah mikir "apa mata gw minus yah? musti pake kacamata? duh musti minum vitamin buat mata nih.. gw kan gak cocok pake kacamata.." ... n setelah tersadar dari lamunan.. back to earth gitu ceritanya.. gw mulai nyimak lagi isi meeting itu.. tapi?? cuma buat semenit.. mungkin kurang.. n pikiran gw udah entah kemana lagi..

    Gw sendiri gak gitu ngerti jalan pikiran gw.. kadang bisa banyak banget pertanyaan yang muncul di otak... n kebanyakan juga pertanyaan gak penting... ngeliat satu orang pun gw bisa mikir "nih orang kok bisa yah kayak gitu? apa yah yang lagi dia pikirin? dia hepi gak hari ini? gw ganggu dia gak yah? dia sebel ama gw gak yah?" ... mungkin gw perlu olahraga yang nenangin pikiran yah.. contohnya apa? orang bilang yoga or meditasi.. tapi.. apa iyah bisa? kayaknya sih.. kalo gw meditasi, otak gw juga gak bakal istirahat.. malah mikir lebih banyak lagi.. or kalo gak mikir lebih banyak.. yah ketiduran hehehe....

    Eh ketiduran juga bukan berarti pikiran gw jadi tenang loh!!! soalnya.. yang gw pikirin itu sering banget kebawa ke dalem mimpi... juga.. mimpi2 gw tuh sering banget berupa nightmare.. bayangin aja.. gw sering mimpi tentang pembunuhan, kecelakaan, naga... gw gak perlu film horror lagi deh.. dah jadi langganan alami hehehe...

    So now.. what should I do to calm my mind?? oh iyah.. katanya buat orang golongan darah A minum teh chammomile itu bagus buat nenangin pikiran.. mungkin gw bakal nyoba itu malem ini... sepertinya masih ada deh di rumah.. (ngomong2... kepala gw mulai kleyengan lagi nih gara2 baca nih font.. tau gitu sih masih dipake muahahahahahah... *sigh* )

    Dunno Why...

    Helloooooooooo...!!!
    OMG!!! I'm so happy they have Maigandra GD font here hehehe.. I really love this font type, dunno why.. \(^o^)/

    And I also dunno why I created a new blog.. since I already got 3 blogs.. the first one is abandoned, the second is half-abandoned, and the third can still be considered new yet not really active...

    Now... what will I write here... uhm... I know I should write my almost-always spinning thoughts (it's now spinning.. thinking what to write) ... but oh dang! came up with nothing!!!

    Why am I here in the first place? cos I read my hunny's blog and wanna put comments on it.. and I thought "why dun I join it too?" *so just I have a username to put on the comments..* hehehe.. silly isnt it?

    I'm sure I'm gonna have something.. lots of things to write soon.. since my mind is kinda uncontrollable and sometimes annoy myself.. it just wanders on its own!!! I write some other time and for now.. I'll just refer you guys to my other blog.. read Yolg!
