Quotes

"In my opinion, the best thing you can do is find a person who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome, what have you, the right person will still think the sun shines out your ass. That's the kind of person that's worth sticking with." 
- Juno 

"Regrets are a waste of time. They're the past crippling you in the present"
- Under the Tuscan Sun

"Sometimes you've got to run away to see if they will follow"
- Manfield Park

"I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you straight-forwardly, without complexities or pride; so I love you because I know no other way"
- Patch Adams

"Sometimes it's not the people that are crazy. It's life that's crazy"
- Girl Interrupted

"It's funny, most people can be around someone and then gradually begin to love them and never know exactly when it happened"
- Fried Green Tomatoes

"It's not about what happened in the past, or what you think might happen in the future. It's about the ride, for God's sake. There is no point in going through all this crap, if your are not going to enjoy the ride. And you know what... when you least expect something great might come along. Something better then you even planned for"
- Along Came Polly


Sunday Stuffs

I was actually wanted to start writing something on my book, but then i found my pencil box which is filled with these inbox paper. You know when we were on our training in Jakarta, each of us have our envelopes named 'Inbox' so we can put any messages, comments, secrets, love letter :p or everything there. I didn't thought that i brought it here, i thought i left it in Cibubur. But thank god i brought it here yeay! So i started reading it one by one, paper by paper and smiling over while reading it, it's like a time machine :) And you know what i love about being boring and got-nothing-to-do is that i always try to make something, anything. I took my camera, my pen, my mp3, paper and started to do something with that stuffs. At least i have something to post on my blog :D






Céline Dion - Taking Chances

Don't know much about your life
Don't know much about your world but
Don't wanna be alone tonight
On this planet they call Earth

You don't know about my past and
I don't have a future figured out
And maybe this is goin' too fast
And maybe it's not meant to last

But what do you say to takin' chances?
What do you say to jumpin' off the edge?
Never knowin' if there's solid ground below
Or a hand to hold or hell to pay
What do you say? What do you say?

I just wanna start again
And maybe you could show me how to try
Maybe you could take me in
Somewhere underneath your skin

What do you say to takin' chances?
What do you say to jumpin' off the edge?
Never knowin' if there's solid ground below
Or a hand to hold or hell to pay
What do you say? What do you say?

Hey now, hey, my heart is beatin' down
But I'm always comin' back for more, yeah
There's nothin' like love to pull you up
When you're lyin' down on the floor, babe

So talk to me, talk to me like lovers do
Yeah, walk with me, walk with me like lovers do
Like lovers do

What to you say to takin' chances?
What do you say to jumpin' off the edge?
Never knowin' if there's solid ground below
Or a hand to hold or hell to pay
What do you say? What do you say?

Don't know much about your life
And I don't know much about your world

Thoughts

It's pouring again and all i wanna do today is just laying on my bed whole day hiding under the blanket, listening to old songs and chillin out. Been listening to some old songs from bryan mcknight, sarah mclahlan, toploader and all those got me back the old times when i was in high school and even in junior high school. When i was sitting in my bench at school, i always wanted to have the experience of living abroad, far from home, living independently, meet some cute guys and having a party. Really. Now here i am, living far from home, in Canada. Let's just say that i am alone, i'm indeed alone now. I reached my dream, God blessed me this much. It's pretty hard to adapt with the new circumtances, new people, new places, new life tho. I've never lived far from home before, not in a very long period of time which is 6 months and this is truly my 1st experience so it's normal if i feel hard. Missing home, family, hometown like all i wanna do is just cry and go home, i felt that. People might say that i'm so lucky to be here, representing my province for an exchange program, i am lucky indeed! But for this first couple of week, please allow me to shout out loud what i can't say loudly in front of my hostparents here :p I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT DOG FOR GOD'S SAKE! How can i live with that big black and (actually not so) scary dog all the time oh God.. He stares at me all the time, maybe he wanted to say hi or say hi, enemy or something like that but i just hateee the way he stares at me i feel like he wants to jump bite me all the time, i feel insecure. Blah. But i also feel bad that he had to be tied off everytime i'm home. My hostparents are so kind, my lil brother and sister are also cute. My hostmom is really good at cooking and she eats rice, i'm so glad with that hahaha. My hostdad is really really handome i'm not lying he looks like David Beckham :D i like living here, nice people and our house is just like 10 minutes from downtown so i can go to the downtown anytime i want. What matter is, the dog. But okay i got a goodnews that they decided to put the dog in the backyard sometimes when i'm home and that's good for me i really respect that they understood how scared i am with that big black thing that they loved, uhh sorry. They said that it's just a temporary for 2 months, yea 2 months i'm gonna live here and if it's without dog i'll be so happy! Good thing they respect that i'm a moslem and i can't get close with dog. Okay then problem solved. Now i'm getting bored sitting in front of the monitor whole day, i asked my friends to get some coffee or else but they had something to do with their hostparents tho. Mine went to work, in Sunday for work's sake. So it's just me and my counterpart doing our own stuff here in our room. At a time like this i miss my friends there in my hometown. It's always happens when we had nothing to do, we meet, drink coffee or smoothies, talk about everything, really, every-thing, then we play uno cards til the rest of the night, and sometimes sleepover at my place, watching dvds, having a tons of snacks and midnite supper, girls talk, do some crazy photo session, messing up with my room and i really love everything about my friendship! Ah well i still have 5 months with this program which means that i'll give them something to be told when we meet, they'll love it for sure. Alright, i'm hungry. Gotta get something to fill my tummy. I love you, life. Godspeed us.

It's Halifax!

Are you one of those people who loves Twilight Saga? Still remember the place where those vampires live? Today i tried so hard to remember the name of the town where the twilight saga taken but i didn't find it and somehow i didn't wanna google it, i was so curious and i thought that my brain still can figure it out itself without google but i was wrong. Okay well i'm not gonna explain more and more about twilight and about how bad i am remembering things. The thing that i wanted to share is, i've been living in this town for about 2 weeks and it's raining all the time. Got the (twilight) point, uh? The place where you can't see sunshine so much, where all you gotta do is put your boots and raincoats or umbrella all the time, it is Halifax-on-fall-season. And you know how much i hate rain, darling.. Oh, this is a tough time for me :/

My second saturday night in Halifax spent in our friend's place with Indonesian food and nice dessert tho. We had a really nice meal, watched Insidious even though not even half of it we stopped it and moved to watch "Some Like It Hot". That was an oooolllllldddd movie, we didn't pay attention a lot cause we just talked, a lot. Ended up playing card, i went back home. It was raining as always in Halifax but not so cold for tonight. Second week, hope we'll doing good for the next billion of weeks ahead..
