Five (Hundred) Days of Summer: 1

This day was Friday, the day we all had been waiting for. After clearing the exams for about a month, struggling with papers, finally the holiday came. We were going to go to Beijing, China! Wait.. It was not only that country that we wanted, but also the togetherness which was rarely to happen♥

We were more than 100 heads, including teachers, students, and a very kind cleaning service :'D. Happily, 19 out of 24 students in my class were joining this kinda event.

It was when we were in the airport, terminal 2E gate E3, with the other pals, we lined up (not really actually), and entered the waiting room together. Laughter everywhere, probably we were that excited. Well, it was 8 at night, our flight was gonna be on 9.30 pm. It took 7 hours to be on the clouds.. long enough to cause a backache.

Alright, no even needed to take a cold shower (but brushed our teeth), we were directly heading at the morning to Mutianyu Great Wall. Someone broke the silence.. "I can't believe we are here, it's been forever we've only seen this great wall from pictures as one of those 7 wonders in the world." :') the one was Milla.. And of course, we didn't reach peak on foot, we used a cable car, but it was quite terrifying as well, because the way was so steep.

   

After having a foothold at the top, okay, we got hypnotized by the scenery, it was unbelievable. We felt a little nip in the air, sunny but wasn't killing. And it's been awhile, but I still feel the same. *salah*... After quite awhile, we chose to go downstairs, so manyyy cute things to buy there, but our tour guiders said that everything there was (is) a bit expensive and I didn't buy anything. It was a regret anyway :')

We had a photostop at a very unique building named CCTV building. Somehow it wasn't the only 'different' building there. Every-single-building in China has a crazy architecture. I could say that none of them having a shape literally like a bar.. And you know, the city Beijing is very similar to Jakarta, but the number of vehicles isn't as many as in Jakarta :3 unfortunately we stopped at a place which was very near to the building, so I couldn't take a picture well, therefore the picture below, I got it from Mr. Google ^^

Now, Temple of Heaven! Heeem, when we steped the place, we were shocked by choirs with sucha amazing voices. Wondering if they just wanted to have fun or they are there everyday. People playing cards at the corners, playing musical instruments. It was like everyone got united in differences :'D

At night we met the one we had been waiting for 2 days, BED! Me and Nuvi, got the room 1025 :-) happy resting! Okaaay, stay tuned for the other stories, fellas :-D

Call it: A Day

Here I am typing in the middle of my pillows (and my as level exams), with my stomach that's screaming because I am desperately hungry. My television is watching my back right now. (I apologize for that). So what I'm going to tell you tonight is that I'm sooo blissful. Today was really a day. Let me show you some little things. (btw I know Nuvi and Narat also are going to post something about this day, just like me, but it's no skin off my nose bcs we were having fun together :'))

This morning, me and my buddies (narat nuvi namsoy don joddy dito aldy arsyad adi) were on the way to.. Tangerang!!! We had planned to go to Joddy's rice-field :-D. YAY this probably was the answer of my statement couple days ago:

But at first, we went to a resort, the boys were swimming. I didn't expect the swimming pool and the surroundings would be that awesome, just by paying 30,000 rupiahs each person, who'd swim. It was like somewhere in neverland /halah/. It was similar to resorts in Bali, even though we can say that this resort is nowhere in the city. Yes and then us, as ordinary girls, we took pictureSSS. Of course the boys too......

It was 2 pm sharp and we left. As a cow flies, Joddy & Aldy's cars were running to our main destination: RICE-FIELD! (after we stopped by a Rumah Makan Padang, and took away the foods).

Finally we arrived ;-D the view was stunning, the wind was so pleasant as well. We directly entered the mini house at the edge of the field, then we were eating there voraciously, as we were watching the scene, babbling, laughing, anything.

It was all more than I told you above. It was all more. For me, it's not about where and how. It's all about with whom sometimes. About joking around and the feeling of a unique happiness.. Thank you for today, fellas♥ high school never ends, kata Narat ^_^

Last Saturday

April, the 16th

Sometimes what you need the most is not a thousand those are far, but one that is close.

When You Look Me In The Eyes

Enjoy ^^ /berasa ada yang dengerin/ hehehehe that's all for today! Have a nice holiday people, and good luck for the exams para kelas 12.. *maaf ya kayanya gue lagi ngablu T_T*

If the heart is always searching

Can you ever find a home?

I've been looking for that someone

I never make it on my own

Dreams can't take

The place of loving you

There's gotta be a million reasons

Why it's true

When you look me in the eyes

And tell me that you love me

Everything's alright

When you're right here by my side

When you look me in the eyes

I catch a glimpse of heaven

I find my paradise

When you look me in the eyes

How long will I be waiting

To be with you again?

I'm gonna tell you that I love you

In the best way that I can

I can't take a day without you here

You're the light that make my darkness disappear

More and more, I start to realize

I can reach my tomorrow

I can hold my head up high

And it's all because you're by my side

When you look me in the eyes

And tell me that you love me

Everything's alright

When you're right here by my side

When I hold you in my arms

I know that it's forever

I just got to let you know

I never wanna let you go

A Day with @78yc ♬

Hai hai semuanya. Sekarang gue lagi teparrr banget. Badan pegal sana-sini. Rasanya pengen tidur mulu tp blm ngantuk lagi, gimana tuh... Ya pokonya kemaren gue baru saja menghabiskan sehariaaan full bersama @78yc♥♥ di Universitas Indonesia, dalam rangka ikut lomba 7th National Folklore Festival (@7thNFF). It was fun ;D

Jadi.. Kita udah latian buat ini.. bentar sih sebenernya, dan gak seintensif waktu latian Barca team (baru sadar belum ngepost apapun tentang lomba ke Barca waktu itu, dan sekarang gue udah lupa kejadian-kejadian disana #huffft walaupun gue yakin sih gak ada yang baca juga... Tp nyesel juga T_T karena gue jd gabisa baca post gue senidiri #loh, ya kadang kenangan itu kan selain bisa diabadikan dari foto, juga bisa dari tulisan #EA. Yaudah kapan-kapan gue post deeeh hihi :D). Nah, baru intensif nya itu seminggu terakhir, karena sekolah juga lagi libur, makanya kita latian harmpir tiap hari dalam seminggu. Di lomba ini, kita nyanyiin dua lagu. Cinta Indonesia, yang emang lagu wajib untuk semua peserta, dan Gundul-Gundul Pacul..... ;)

And finally came the D-Day!

Then... Kita udah berangkat dari sekolah beserta kostum dan makeup jam setengah 6 pagi, sampe di Depok jam 6:45 (inget banget). Terus kita uji coba panggun bentar dan latian review lagu di taman :''')

Setelah menunggu beberapa saat, it was our turn to come on stage!

Abis lomba, kita ke bis ganti baju dan......... MAKAN! :'D setelah itu minum es serut. Oh my, akhirnya minum es juga ♥ dan abis itu, dengan isengnya gue dan Hana ngecover Breakeven ditengah kebisingan ;3

Laluuuuuuuh, saat sholat jumat kita nunggu di bangku penonton sambil foto-foto T_T bzzz dan akhirnya kita nonton peserta-peserta yang lain yang belum tampil.

Dan inilah saatnya pengumuman, betenya adalah, pengumumannya dibacain dari urutan paling akhir peringkatnya, aka s-a-t-u-s-a-t-u. Kan bikin deg-degan... 

JENGJENGJENG, kita masuk 2 besar! Tp belum tau peringkat berapa. Dua apa Satu. Tapi berapapun itu juga udah bagusss kok ;) terus dibacain juara 1-nya...

"SMAN 1 Blitar!"

Gak kaget... Mereka emang super keren...

Dengan demikian, berarti kita peringkat kedua. Anehnya... It was supposed to be the one who got the first place to sing both of their songs once more. Tapi kita disuruh nyanyi lagi lagu Cinta Indonesia, dan mereka untuk lagu Folklore nya :')

2nd place. But still.. Proud of 78yc. Yes, I am a proud chorister :D
