Day 3 - Singapore

2011-11-23T09:20:00.003+07:00

Ga sempat update-update,hahahaha ga niat nih nulis blog nya

Ok,meneruskan entry blognya....so hari ke-3

Bangun kesiangan, dan rute hari ini Singapore Zoo + Orchard ...shopping time!

Singapore Zoo

Terlalu kemakan iklan banget ya gue.
Ok, the zoo...is OK.
bersih...iya! *daun mati berguguran aja ngak ada*
rapi dan bersih ..iya

Tapi ntah apa karena mood udah brantakan karena kecapean, atau cuaca yang ga mendukung gerimis - stop - gerimis
i found this, average lah
judulnya...yang penting udah pernah masuk ke Singapore Zoo.

Gila perjalanannya jauuuhh (1 1/2 jam - an)
buat skala singaporean jauh bukan? Jadi dari naik MRT paling lumayan ujung (book dari Farrer Park ke Ang Mo Kio itu jauhh) trus antri 15-20mnt an buat naik bus lagi.
Udah gitu, naik bus...jalannya ampe stasiun yang paling mentok. Cespleng deh jauhnya

Overall what i can see also is, the animals are so healthy
dan ntah apa karna mereka udah biasa? atau pas lagi my lucky day? setiap gue dateng ke observation glass, binatangnya nyamperin. Unyu~~~

OK pulang dari Singapore Zoo,rencannya mo langsung jalan ke Orchard Road tapi badan gue dah tumbang to the max, jadi pulang dulu ke hostel dan tidur 1 jam.

Orhard Road

Jalan-jalan...pusing banyak orang...
ke semua mall,House of Condom, beli oleh-oleh...makan ice potong apak-apak....jalan-jalan

again...mood cuma tinggal 15%, dengan bawa belanjaan, dan buat gue malem itu Orchard Road terlalu penuh, dan isinya klo ngak aii-aii surabaya / semarang yang lagi belanja atau anak-anak alay s'pore yang tampangnya sama seng'a nya ma alay indo (beda mata sipit doank)

So...overall, ok lah.
Mall nya juga hampir sama ma Jakarta (atau mungkin gue udah bukan mall people lagi)

Mustafa

Pulang-pulang masih nyantol di Mustafa Center lagi...wahahahahahahaha

Day 2 - Universal Studio Singapore - Part B, Sentosa dan Casino

2011-10-30T14:34:00.005+07:00

Game 2 - Battlestar Gallatica - Cyclon

So akhirnya memberanikan diri naik nih rollercoaster. Fyi, gue tuh penakut banget urusan rollercoaster. Halilintar di Dufan aja ngak berani sampe setua ini.
Tapi masalahnya, udah di USS nih!! Udah jauh-jauh di Singapore nih. Dan emang dari dulu rasanya mimpi gimana ngerasain rollercoaster inverted suspended dual rollercoaster.

Setelah teriak non-stop dan tutup mata nonstop...edan! gue berasa addict ma nih Cyclon! Gila banget seru nya. Sampe diatas, gue hanya bisa berasa pasrah,pegangan dan triak 8 oktaf aja. 57 detik berasa 1 tahun ya cyiiinn~~

Ok...setelah Cyclon, mulailah main yang lain-lain, dan ditutup dengan permainan Revenge of The Mummy, yang asleeee bikin gue nightmare. indoor rollercoaster tuh..cespleng banget

Abis tutupnya USS, gue ga langsung pulang karena nunggu Hollywood After Hours
(pertunjukan kembang api)jam 9 malem. So maen-maennya ke Casino Resort World, yaaa pengen tau aja bagimana rasanya,and then masuk ke Candylicious...

back again to USS jam 8an....menikmati kembang api...
and go back to hotel!!!

GUess WhAT..jam 1 pagi nya masih jalan ke Mustafa...again....wahahhahaaha

Day 2 - Universal Studio Singapore - Part A

2011-10-21T16:02:00.002+07:00

Day 2

Day 2...

Universal Studio Singapore

Breakfast di hawker center deket hostel, lalu capcus ke USS naik MRT lagi ke Vivo City

In front of Vivo City

Bisa dibilang, Universal Studio is one of my dream...this is why im going to Singapore.
Before, i had a dream to got to Universal Studio / Disneyland is USA....USA is too expensive, go down to DisneySea Japan...still too expensive, Universal Studio, only available at Florida and Los Angeles, then....they open in Singapore. So i've been saving the money, workin' my ass off to go to Singapore, with all my own.

Naik Sentosa Express, dan sampailah ke sini...

What a dreams come true~~

I wonder, how many Indonesian had taken a pic in front of this Universal Globe?

So,agak ngantri didepan gate nya. Karena baru tahu, kalo hari itu 9 Oktober 2011, adalah hari Singapore Children Day. Jadi nyampur sama lokal and bule aussie (sama~ org aus juga lagi term break anak-anaknya)

Pas masuk udah deh jepret sana sini lageeeee *banci kamera mode on*

Game 1
Lights! Action! Camera!

Disini kita bisa lihat gimana studio bikin special effect buat di film

Lagi antri...apparently, i already watch all the movie posters attached in here

Inside the area

Its amazing bagimana kita 'dibohongi' oleh Hollywood ya wkwkwk~~~
tiba-tiba mesin angin dinyalain, tiba-tiba ada kapal masuk ke dalam arena dan mau nabrak kita...hehehehe

To-Be-Continued

Singapore Trip - Day 1

2011-10-21T15:55:00.002+07:00

So, akhirnya jalan-jalan akbar tahunan 2011, ke Singapore :)
perjalanan udah di-planning hampir 1 tahun

Permohonan cuti sudah beres, then...here we go!
Pergi ke Singapore ini, solo traveler! Which is tottally great. Very focus on the site beb!

OK

Day 1

Start jam 11an siang dari Soetta, Jakarta Aiport dan sampe di bandara Changi, Airport. Dan as expected, nih bandara Changi emang keren!!

Selamat Datang di Singapura

Dateng-dateng, follow the crowd. Imigrasi dll beres. Ke UOB money changer buat beli Starhub SIM Card. S$15 bisa BB-an 3 hari full service. Apalagi disana 3G nya OK...wus wus wus

Naik turun elevator, naik sky train ...untung cuma bawa 1 hand bag. Ribet yey, naek turun hahaha

oya, mengingat...i hate walking!! ga hobi jalan deh gue. Beli kartu EZ-Link S$12-an, dan capcus ke daerah Little India. :) Gue nginep di Hostel Fernloft, di Jalan Besar.

Inside MRT

Sampe di Hostel nya, lumayan 'shock' dengan kondisi dorm pertama kali. Sebetulnya sih dorm nya ngak masalah. Gue nya aja, yang ga pernah nginep di hostel,tiba2 harus di satu kamar yang agak gelap dan ber deret ranjang tingkat, DAN pasang sprei sendiri pula.
(Edisi Anak Manja)

The dorm :)

Ok,beres sama hostel, capcus pertama kali ke Singapore Art Museum.

Pas hari itu, karena ada pameran khusus pelukis dari Singapore, masuk ke Singapore Art Museum nya gratis (^0^). Yang penting coba nikmatin' museum di Singapore seperti apa.

Singapore Art Museum dari depan

Inside the Museum..

i dont think i can take a pic,but well...i am indonesian, always break the rules (for a while) HAHAHAHA

Didepan SAM (Singapore Art Museum), ga jauh dari sana ada National Museum of Singapore, tapi ga sempat masuk. Karena hari sudah mau hujan!! and i have to catch up Merlion Park

National Museum of Singapore

Ok...karena penasaran sama Merlion Park.
(Karena perjalanan ke singapore sebelumnya, ga ngelewatin si Merlion karna lagi perbaikan ), naiklah TAXI Singapore yang terkenal mahal. AND IT IS!! Perjalanan cuma ga sampe 5 menit, kudu bayar S$10-an. Soalnya pas jam sibuk plus kena ERP (itu istilah mereka lah, jadi charge sana-sini).

Finally!!! The Merlion!

The view of Marina Bay Sands

look at the bad weather...so dark and cloudy

Abis foto-foto jepret sana sini, minta tolong mas-mas (kalo orang indo), kuya (klo orang filipin) dan mister-mister (klo orang bule) --->>> Secara solo traveler yak, jalan satu-satu nya ya minta tolong orang laen buat fotoin' ^__^V

Di Singapore, malah digodain abang-abang kuya dari filipin. Aneh banget, pas gue ke Manila malah kaga digodain wahahahaha

Abis itu, hujan deras badai melanda cyiinnn~~
untung bawa tuh payung lipet beli di jembatan Setiabudi, alhasil 4 hari di Singapore, nih payung bolong sekarang!. Secara Singapur tiap hari hujaaaannnn. dari yang gerimis ampe yang lebat (tapi ga banjir kayak Jakarta seh~ *keselek Monas*)

Naik bus lagi, ke Plaza Singapura (mal ujung nya Orchard) dan Park Mall (or something like that), dan pulang melalui Dhouby Ghout MRT, interchange yang bikin modar -__-

Di sini, Namie Amuro masih beredar cyiN~~

Sampe di hostel, udah jam...10-11an malem, makan di hawker deket situ...yummeeeeyyyy

Something NOT to remember

2011-09-18T10:39:00.003+07:00

Awalnya, hari ini mau buka blog buat bersih-bersih, yang artinya menghapus entry yang geje,ababil,dll... (pada intinya yang ga guna). AND i did it! i ERASE everything just until in the end of 2010 :)

Gara-gara kemarin bakar buku diary jaman dulu,and it feels so good! Daripada loe buka-buka lagi dan loe coba kenang-kenang.

Ah sudahlah beib~ kalo kenangan indah, mau gimana pun pasti nyantol. Sedangkan kenangan buruk,galau,broken heart....itu mah kaga perlu ditulis maning yey!

Setelah gue bakar
(eh ini beneran dibakar lo,satu per satu halaman...)
kok berasa enteng hidup gue. Dan juga biar ga menuh-menuhin tempat juga sih.

Emang terkadang, ada masa di hidup kita yang harus 'something not to remember'

Personality Test...this is so right yo~

2011-08-22T14:19:00.002+07:00

Taken from :
http://www.quizbox.com/personality/test82.aspx

Your view on yourself:
You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:
You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:
You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:
You are very serious about relationships and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love.

Your views on education
You may not like to study but you have many practical ideas. You listen to your own instincts and tend to follow your heart, so you will probably end up with an unusual job.

The right job for you:
You have plenty of dream jobs but have little chance of doing any of them if you don't focus on something in particular. You need to choose something and go for it to be happy and achieve success.

How do you view success:
You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

What are you most afraid of:
You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.

Who is your true self:
You are full of energy and confidence. You are unpredictable, with moods changing as quickly as an ocean. You might occasionally be calm and still, but never for long.

Dreams Come True - English Version

2011-08-07T15:20:00.003+07:00

English Version
(more simple version than the indonesian, but forgive me if there's wrong grammar. XD)

Dreams Come True - The Cranberries

-Pre Java Rockin' Land 2011-

First, i'm not very excited with this festival. It held every year,so yeah~~ just another music festival. Then i saw the leak version of their poster (this is like 2 months before the concert) that it written The Cranberries. he? Cranberries? are they reunion? they are still alive?? i meant, after the Starts Albums, i just barely listen to them..no..i dont listen to them anymore. Time just flies...i'm having japanese music invasion, then korean music invasion,then Lady Gaga..then college - graduate being employee, what-so-ever.

remember~...i was in love with The Cranberries in a verryylong time ago.
its was 94-95, and that time i was 11 years old. Now (currently) i'm 26 years old.

So there...
finally,i bought the ticket,without any hope or heart-beating. Its just, ~ ok lets buy the ticket! at least it isn't too expensive,and i want to see my childhood idol.

- The day -

So the day of the concert come. I still dont have any feeling. Just plain~~ just like another day of concert.i went to the venue bymyself. Right there, then i met Fietter & co. (Fietter : http://fietter.blogspot.com)
the venue was soo biiiiigg. So many stage,its like...lollapaloza / woodstock. But not too crowded, which is that good! (i came to the venue, at 4pm).
The venue, Ancol is beside the beach anyway :)

So it written that The Cranberries, would perform on the Main Stage.
so going around, watched indonesian local bands, eat, drinks,chat with friends...then 1st appearance in the main stage, which is Indonesian legendary rock star, Godbless on the stage.

I watched them from distance,while eating. God Bless ended around 7pm-ish. Then me and my friends (Fietter & Ria, husband-wife) went straight to the front row,for The Cranberries. Funnily, in the meantime we didn't speak about The Cranberries at all.

So first it Ed Kowalczyk -ex Live, on the stage. i'm so enjoying it!. He's also my childhood idol!! its like...for a female vocalist, its The Cranberries, and the male vocalist, there's LIVE.
i thought that He wouldnt play LIVE's songs. But HE IS...
and i'm thriiiillled!!!! its like....fffwwaack my dream come true!!

when i was 11, there's no internet, no concert,all i can do is just dreaming that someday i can watch their live in front of my eyes
damN~ i was crying when Ed K sang 'Lighting Crashes'. That song reminds me of my late aunty who died fighting cancer.

its was mind blasting live...
Ed K was in front of my eyes!
and yeaaahh i was sing a long all the time...then after he finished, i thought that i can move further to other front row. Guess what?! people didn't move! and they started to fill all the venue. It means,

they all wait for the The Cranberries. i saw lots of foreigner (not indonesian) came also.So total time..i was standing in front of the stage. From 7.30 - 11.00PM (before the Cranberries was on stage)

then....the lighting blast...
people scream...
you knowwww~~...I CANT SEE NOTHINGGGG...everybody that in front of me just screaming and jumping like heelll
it was Analyze - intro-
and my friend Ria, just screamed like...hysterical...she spotted Dolores O'Riordan first!!
1st song, Analyze...i;m just standing still and disbelief. Is this real The Cranberries? Am i dreaming? ... i am dreaming right? i only see barely Ms.O'Riordan because people just jumping and screaming.
then i saw her walkin' around and singing. I'm shockked...my heart felt like cut off hahahahaha.

i cant believe The Cranberries in front of my eyes?!?!?!!?!? LIVE...in front of my eyes! not in TV, not in youtube...damnn its amazing feelings
i pray 'thank you God' for like...more than 10 times. It is dreams come true. The feelings of loving The Cranberries is totally come back.
of course i was scream along...sang along...eye contact with Dolores wahahahahaha (--> actually i bet its just a coincidence since i'm in the front row line but..who care? i care...wahahhahaahahaha)

Their song list that night
Analyze --> Dolores wore a black long coat
Animal Instinct --> Dolores started play guitar
How --> i'm shocked that they play this old song from 93. And guess what?!? people are sang along together. Which mean..WE ARE tottaly true fans
Dreaming My Dreams --> So beautiful
Linger --> i was crying listen to this song...what a mixture feelings
Ode To my Family --> crying part 3 (dooh such a tearjearker) this songs is represent bout my parents also, remembering i dont live with them and we apart for long time
Tomorrow --> THeir new song...i love this song in their first tune. i cant wait for 'Roses Album'
Schizofrenia Playboy --> another new song...
Just My Imagination --> Empty --> Waltzing --> Free To Decide.... non stop!!!
Salvation --> Dolores went back to backstage for a while, and then she came back with Indian hat, and she started to dancing (you know her style isnt it...amaziiiinnngg)
Ridiculous Thoughts --> Zombie --> Promises
and they all come back...and we scream.... WE WANT MOREEEEE WE WANT MOREEE
Dreams....
their last song!, and Dolores changed her outfit to a long dress with blinks...pretty

Dolores has her own style on throwing her water drinks to audience. And i got the splash for 2 times...hahahahahaah i felt like being baptism (again)
Definitely, The Cranberries is still hold on dude...they are amazing. All in full energy, and big smileeee

then...the show over...
i still on hype...me and Ria...we just sitting down near the stage, and just screaming and hugs each other...//its The Cranbeerieesss...its Doloresss...kyaaaaa// (fangirlish-totally-maximus-mode)
i'm tottaly in love (again) with The Cranberries.

The show over on 1.30am...
but we just caLm down each other, and i was at home at 4 am..
i cant sleep...its still on my head, i cant believe my dreams come true.

BEFORE, The Cranberries ever come to Indonesia in around 2002-2003 (i forgot). That time, i was busy in other town, helping my dying aunt fought her cancer. So that's why i cant see the,
thanks Lord..that you gave me chance to see them,even it apart 15 years i waited!!! (until i forgot for a while)

- Chasing Dolores -

24 July 2011,
i woke up at 8 am...l not seriously sleep though.
then i blackberry-messaging with my friend Ria Lin (another Ria), and well she often chasing the international artist and took pics together.

i said to her.."as if~ The Cranberries still here (Jakarta)"
She : Why dont you try? they stayed at Hotel Borobudur
Me : I bet they already leave...their concert was yesterday
She : hey you stupid arse...just go ahead to the hotel,if they are not there, at least you wouldn't die in curiosity.

so...people...
i dont have any faith at all for this
i meant~~ chasing my idols to their hotel?!?! HELLOO I'M NOT THAT FREAAAKK...but wait,ITS the Cranberries, it could be just once in a life time. Remembering i stay on Asia, not in Europe.so, i dont know what power that struck on me. All i remember just i was already on the taxi heading to Hotel Borobudur.

I still remember, typing on my facebook status.'Having a ridiculous thoughts...if it fail,I swear this is gonna be funny story for my grandchild.at least I'm not die in curiousity'

You know~~ i was wearing my snake skin- heels (because i was thinking, if the Cranberries was already flew, then i'll just hang around the hotel nicely, with putting my make up on). Oh well,the hotel is 5-stars hotel also.

So first, when i was standing in the lobby, Ed k was in front of my eyes....
i'm like...SHOCCKED...ok pull my digital camera and picc with him. Of course i say thank you, and his performance was amazing.
and helloww..so many teenagers were there also,waiting for Good Charlotte.

Please remind, that this is MY FIRST TIME DOING THIS.

then, i went to see the crew and i ask the main question... (damn i was feel so embarrased) //Hi, is The cranberries still here?//
and the crew said : //YES// . For god sakkee my heart pounding so heart, that i almost faint... THEY ARE STILL HEREEEE...i might have time to meet them again!!!

its just, This band, The Cranberries. It was very vivid memories. First time i learn English, is because i wanna know what's the meaning of The Cranberries song?, i learn and play guitar..its because of Dolores plays guitar. In the teenage angst-crazy moment, i listen to 'Dying in the sun'..and cried silently everyday. So after a long time burried in memories, then suddenly it all appear again. in front of my eyes.

So i was confuse, what should i do? sitting in lobby? or what? how? i was completely zero act. i wasn't hoping at all, since i'm just too confuse.
then suddenly i saw blurrly ( i forgot to bring my eye glasses also) Noel Hogan just cross by...
//is it Noel Hogan? or man with beard??//....1 second..2 second..3 second...IT ISSS NOEEEL HOGAAANNN ROSSSYYYY//

So i jumped from the hotel sofa, and (act like calm) towards him, and ask him
me : hi, Noel Hogan isnt it? (its is so stupid isnt ittt..i knoooow)
him : yeah..
me : can i take picture with you??
him : sure.....
me : when you'll be fliying
him : we will go to shanghai at 11 pm. so we'll be here until late. (by the time we spoke, it was still 11 am,peopleeeee)
me : Ok...i'll wait, where's the other?
him : i dont know...they're still sleeping i guess, we are in different room, and we all get jet lagged.
me ;ok thank you so much..i cant believe i meet you finally.

then he goes..
and i'm turning blue and pale....my heart beat like crazy, i'm not dreaming..am i?? no i'm not...

SOOO
it motivated me to wait a whole day there, for The Cranberries.

its was already lunch time, and i felt hungry. SO i went to the pool side, and order food there. Theeenn i saw Noel Hogan (again) swam and just get tanned.

Omg, Mr Hogan...if you read this, i swore i didnt stalk you. its just we are in the same place okaayyy.

i didnt approach him again,guys..i think they need privacy also isnt it? and i respect that.

After finishing my sandwich, i went inside (its damn hot sunday)
and them i met Fergal Lawler...took picc again. He's lovely,but he;s short isn't is? hahahahaha i never measure or realize though

Then,time flies until evening. Finally i met other 6 people, who just wait for the Cranberries. So we talked, chat, sharing stories.Because we waited Dolores O'Riordan dan Mike Hogan.
it was 7 pm (yes people 7 pm!!!!)
a teenage girl said, 'i think i saw you fave singer just cross by to the gym/pool area)..this teenage didn't recognize Dolores O Riordan too bad...

After we all tired, and hopeless. Listen to that news, we felt like having jolt again, BUT still no sign of Dolores. So agaiiinn we just sitting down and i started to say.."lets go home...this is the time that they should leave hotel to airport and no sign at all, its just a dream....forget the dream, yesterday we already had the chance to watch their live,its enough. no more miracle'

Suddenly small short woman was 5 meters behind me, and it is herrr...Dolores O'Riordan....
it came like lighting strike and flash...a very short moment. i think below 5 minutes. We just took pic together, (me and other 6 people) and i had the changed that say to her that, her songs are save my life and a life changing moment. and Dolores smiled at me, and say 'thank you its lovely'... ( i would not forget her face when she said that)
and the manager came, and pull her to the lift, and the manager kindda angry and said to us... She just had short time,because need to catch the flight!!!!
(okk misterrrrr hahahahah)

After Dolores went back to her hotel room.
6 of us, just screamed, cried and hugh each other...amazing...
this is dreams come true...a dreams CAN come true...

So, we managed to get out from hotel...it seems that the manager already warn the security to keep and eye to us. OK MISTERRR MANAGER WE KNOWW...WE FINNALLY CAN MEET DOLORES, AND ITS ENOUGH...AND I KNOW YOU WORRIED ABOUT US, SINCE WE ARE IN THE HOTEL FROM 11AM TO 8PM wahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

so whileee we are waiting in the lobby. WAiting for go home actually~~ (not waiting the cranberries anymore).Suddenly, other The Cranberries members were shown up. That was the time that i can have pics moment with Mike Hogan (he;s cuuuuteee...but before when i was teenage,my crush was Fergal LOL)
and me and Donny (the 6 people who waited them) spoke to Fergal about their new tracks..oww Fergalll of course we love it! Tomorrow single is so beautiful.

After that, Dolores came and ran, straight towards the audy car, only for her. And other members were using other cars...and bye bye The cRanberries.

a dreams can come true~~
my dreams come true...
i'm just a girl, dreaming on her sleep before and listen to their song... In Indonesia ( a very far from Europe or Ireland)
its amazing feeling.

Now everytime i feel down and blue...i'll remember this story, and it motivate me, that a dreams could come true. i dont know how,dont know where, dont know when...but its there. dont stop praying...
i was praying (when i was 11 years old) until i forgot bout it...but God, dont forget :) and he fullfill mine.

MaYBE for The Cranberries members themselves or Dolores herself,they think that I'm just a asian fans who try to meet them. i'm sure i am their nothing, and i just a fan. But for me...its a life changing.
its a dreams come true.

Dreams Come True - The Cranberries

2011-07-25T15:48:00.003+07:00

- Pre - Java Rockin' Land 2011

Awalnya,biasa aja karena gue ga pernah nonton nih festival. Tiba-tiba ada bocoran poster di kaskus.us kalo ada The Cranberries. Bulan lalu gue cuma berasa..'owww ok The Cranberries..kalo jadi...mang mereka masih ada?!' not much into The Cranberries anymore since, well~ time flies. Gue lompat dari Irish Alternative invasion,sampe Japanese invasion, ampe sekarang lagi hot-hotnya korean invasion.

Since masih ga tau, beneran apa ngak? kapan / hari apa mereka manggung so gue nunggu aja santai bray! sampe jeng-jong cek di web nya The Cranberries.com, ada lah tertulis 23 July. OK that's it..beli aja!
dapet deh, dengan beli online...Rp.355ribu.Ga mau spekulasi dapet tiket palsu or what-so-ever

Pada saat itu,asli gue masih lupa bagimana gue nge-fans banget sama The Cranberries.
for the sake of memory aja menurut gue...mulai tuh download-download lagi lagunya, dengerin secara shuffle di iPod Shuffle gue, tercampur dengan 2NE1, Dir en Grey dan Lady Gaga (see~~ my music preferences is crazy man)

- Java Rockin' land 2011 - 23 July 2011 -

Akhirnya dateng sendirian, ceritanya kemungkinan ketemu Phiter dkk. Once again 'kemungkinan' dateng naik busway, trus lanjut ojek Rp10.000 itu udah jam 5. Lumayan amazed dengan Pantai Carnaval yang super gede!!

Sekali lagi, gue ga ada rasa deg-degan or gimana...i felt that its just another festival band. I go through these things a lot. Eh ketemu temen lama juga! Si
Joseph (Phiter dkk) nonton Power Slaves. Megang nih band!! trus pindah ke Konspirasi (pengen tahu kayak apa lagu-lagunya). Ok disitu ketemu temen-temen dari gang jejepangan muter-muter, lanjut ke Godbless dan Sarasvati.

Kalo Sarasvati, ga bisa lama-lama...man~ tuh aura lagu-lagunya berat ya.love them sih, kreatif. Ntah feeling gue, or emang bagimana gitu...sepertinya banyak
yang 'terpanggil' dan itu bukan manusia (d'u know what i'm sayin) gue tahu,mereka pake teatrikal dengan gaya hantu2 itu. But buat gue,perasaan gue jadi berat
gitu. Baliklah ke panggung God Bless

Ketemuan si Phiter dan istrinya Ria...ngobrol2 dan dengerin God Bless yang masih keren banget! mampus gila deh kerennya! dengan panggung set- ala festival
international gitu (emang festival international ros!!!)
lalu bubar selesai...kita langsung nge-tag tempat di lini depan front row. abis itu 1 jam kemudian,ada si Ed Kowalczyk -ex Live.

Ok gue juga dulu suka banget sama LIVE. Gue punya kaset nya Throwing Chopper itu ampe rusak karna sering diputer. Tapi karna gue denger, dia solo karir gue kira dia ga bakalan bawain LIVE. Eh ternyata cyinnn dia campur lagu LIVE dan lagu solo karir dia (dan lagu2 solo nya juga ok!)
yang LIVE, gue inget ada All for you, Alone, Selling the drama, dolphin's cry, lakini juice dan yang pasti lighting crashes.

gila deh, gue menggila pas si Ed bawain' lagu-lagu dari LIVE....
anjing bray jaman gue umur 11 tahun, gue cuma MIMPI...sekali lagi CUMA MIMPI bahwa gue bisa liat dia nyanyi secara live didepan mata...front row pula!!
pas Lightning Crashes...damn gue nangis. That song means so much for me. Everytime i listen to that song, i remember about my late auny who died fighting cancer.

Soal si Ed K...gue kira dia orang nya kurus gitu, ternyata (mungkin karena sudah tua) kok jadi mirip Daughtry gitu. hahahaha tapi ya tuh panggung panas mampus, ampe baju dia basah kuyup kayak orang kena banjir.

Selesai si Ed. Lhaaa orang-orang ga beranjak! ternyata semua merapat untuk liat THe Cranberries ...si pamungkas

Ok deh tetep merapattt~~~ padahal manggungnya masih kurang lebih 1jam an gitu~~
baru kali ini gue pun melihat alat2 masih dipasang...bagaikan kita-kita manggung diacara band biasa (tapi yang set up ya roadies2 nya laah)

kurang lebih 1 jam an lebih menunggu tiba2 yaakkk pada berdiriii~~~
lalu lampu menyala dan jrengggg.....adalah si Noel, Mike dan Fergal strumming their instrument! dan apa?! gue ga bisa liat apa2 karna orang udah loncat2 ga
jelas...dan gue pendek sendiri walopun gue dah diantara front row.
dan denger suaranya Dolores dan liat langsung dia didepan gue...nyesssss~~ hati gue...nyesssss gue teriak ga jelas lagi~~~

Gila deh The Cranberries...
sound OK, atraktif, they are better than ever!!!
Dolores o Riordan masih megang banget deh~~ dari semua yang maen, gue cuma ngeliat kekurangan di drummer Fergal yang agak missing beat diakhir-akhir manggung
(cape kali yak..)

ini list song mereka

Analyse -->
Dolores masih pake long coat item gitu
Animal Instinct -->
Maen gitar
How -->
Asli kaget gue! mereka bawain lagu ini...its from their 1st album tahun 92 ! Tapi orang-orang tetep sing along...brarti memang yang nonton fans berat semua
Dreaming My Dreams -->
So beautiful~
Linger -->
Jrenggg ini dia yang bikin nangis part 2...this song means a lots bout ex - experience hahaha
Ode To my Family -->
Bikin nangis juga, this songs is represnt bout my parents also, remembering i dont live with them and we apart for long time
Tomorrow -->
THeir new song...lagu nya enak banget! dan menginspirasi untuk album Roses,tahun depan / november ini dan lagu ini langsung masuk ke otak gueeee
Schizofrenia Playboy -->
Lagu baru juga! mengingatkan gue ke promises / i just shot jhon lenon gitu beat-beat nya
Just My Imagination --> Empty --> Waltzing --> Free To Decide
Salvation -->
Dolores pake topi indian gitu...manteepp
Ridiculous Thoughts --> mulai deh gaya Dolores yang nari dan goyang khas dia yang aneh...agak2 kayak Elvis ngebelakangin penonton..jesus~~ i cant believe i saw her in LIVE with my own eyes~~
Dolores sempat ke belakang panggung gitu~~
trus lanjut Zombie --> dan promises
dan mereka ke belakang panggung...dan kita teriak WE WANT MOREEEEE WE WANT MOREEE
Dream....
jadi pamungkas mereka, dan Dolores ganti baju gaun hitam blink-blink..
mampusss kereeeennnnn

dia sempat maen2 sama air minum dia, dengan disiram ke kita-kita.gue kena 2x siraman air minum dia....berasa dibabtis bok~~ udah gitu, dia sempat siram tuh air di gelas ke kepala nya.. gila deh rock n roll abis~~

Definitely The Cranberries masih bersinar dan megang,their reunion is like better than ever~~ spirit mereka masih ada,setidaknya spirit Dolores O'Riordan yang bener-bener full banget. I hope they together everlast kayak Blondie gitu deh yang ampe kakek nenek~~

Abis itu selesai, kita masih pelan-pelan duduk, foto-foto agar turun dulu hype kita
asli masih terpukau banget deh~ langsung deh nyes kembali semua kenangan atas The Cranberries jaman dulu, bagimana gue ngefans banget.

Ingat, dulu umur gue masih 11-12years old. GUe bisa maen gitar, ya karna ngeliat Dolores main gitar, kalo gue bisa bahasa inggris cap-cis-cus ya karna THe
Cranberries. Dulu ngimpi abg nya, gue harus tau semua arti lagunya, dan kira-kira gimana ya klo bisa ngobrol ama Dolores..INI CUMA MIMPI
dan ketika gue abg, sendiri, ga punya temen, belum jaman internet, jadi yang ada CUMA MIMPI dan latihan maen gitar biar kayak The Cranberries.
Terus disaat naksir-naksir nya ama si Fergal Lawler, drummer nya hahahahaha

DIsaat gue lagi sedang depresi, gue masih inget dengerin "Dying in the sun' dan nangis sejadi-jadinya so the ones who really save me ya lagu-lagu The Cranberries.

Pulang jam 3.30..dan masih ga bisa tidur, secara masih terngiang-ngiang.
Damn...i love The Cranberries forever

- Demi Dolores...Mengejar THe Cranberries-

So bangun pagi jam 8 an...
tidur-tidur ayam sih, secara gue masih ga bisa tidur terngiang~~
Tentu dengan suara serak, kuping budeg sebelah, dan cape...gue tiba-tiba punya ide gila yang CUMA MIMPI JAMAN ABG, gimana ya rasanya ketemu dan ngomong langsung sama si mbak Dolores???

GUe bbm iseng ama si Ria Lin, temen gue yang biasa ngejar artis dan foto bareng. tarik-ulur-tari-ulur..konsultasi gue bilang
"this is all ridiculous thought,...weather its dreams come true, or i'm being stupid"
then Ria Lin bilang...you have to try, if they re already gone, then you find out that their already leave. No more curiosity.

So, berangkat lah gue ke Hotel Borobudur.
Ga pake deg-deg an..ga pake panik-panik, santai bawa digicam doank
pake sepatu heels pula (karena anggepannya abis ini gue mo jalan-jalan cantik)

Sampe disana jam 11-an~
baru masuk hotel, jrenggg didepan gue si Ed K dari Live...gue minta foto bareng dan dia baeek bangetttt
lalu gue nanya deh ke crewnya JRL, again nanya apakah The Cranberries udah pulang???
asli ya rasanya muka gue tuh tengsinnnn bangettt...gue ga pernah ngejar artis kayak gini.
eeeh mereka bilang, ngak ..mereka pulang ntar malem.
asli jantung gue mo copot pas denger~ so THEY ARE STILL HERE!!

Udah deh nunggu-nunggu sendirian, muter-muter lobby...wandering hal yang laen, tiba-tiba dari jauh, gue liat sesosok Noel Hogan!!! gitarisnya yang sekarng berjanggut...jantung gue mo copot lagi!! langsung minta foto bareng, dan nanya dengna bahasa inggris (anjrot belajar bahasa inggris jaman jayanya The Cranberries, kepake gitu, ngomong langsung sama Noel Hogan)
GIlaaaa....nervousnya kayak apa ga jelas.

And he's very kind.gue nanya, kalian pulang jam berapa? dan dia jawab...ntar malem ,soalnya pesawat kita jam 11. Yang laennya gue ga tau deh...masih jetlag
dan pada bobo. >> NICEEEE SO SWEEETT

Ok...lil bit hungry,
jalan-jalan deh sekalian makan di Singosari Resto, dipinggir kolam renang. Eh, ada si Noel Hogan lagi, dan dia lagi berjemur dan renang. Nah ini dia~~ kok gue berasa stalking. Di mana ada dia,ada akuw...

trus tetep menunggu sore...
sembaru nemu ya udah lah foto-foto ma Happy MOnday, Halloween, Frente, Blood Red Shoes..bertemu dengan anak-anak alay abg yang ngejar Good Charlotte, dan ntah bagimana ceritanya si Good Charlotte ini bisa menghilang~ ga lewat lobby

Tiba-tiba salah satu dari abg ini bilang, gue lihat ada cewe berhoddy, tapi mo gue foto, dia ga mau..kayak nya itu deh Dolores O'Riordan (maklum ya bokk pasti mereka ga kenalllll). Dia ke arah gym/kolam renang.Kita tiba-tiba ber 7 fans THe Cranberries yang tersisa, tiba-tiba yang udah patah arang dan setengah mo pulang, tiba-tiba kayak dpt jolt lagi!
akhirnya kita nunggu,sempet menyisir kolam renang juga (omg,we're in that state of freakness) dan ga ada kita duduk deprok dideket tangga. Gue sempet udah lepas sepatu dan angan-angan CUMA MIMPI

Tiba-tiba jrenggggggggg si mbak Dolores O'Riordan dateng kearah kita.... OMMMMMGG YANG TADI CUMA MIMPI BUKAN MIMPI LAGIIIIII
kita langsung 'mengepung' dia foto2 dan ada yg minta tanda tangan.
Gue sempet bilang : 'thank you for your songs, it really saves my life
Dolores : THanks its lovely dan senyum....
omg...gue berasa ke surga sementara...i will remember her smile...so lovely

Lalu~~
setelah itu dia sempet tanda tangan dan foto dan udah cepet-cepet ditarik si manager untuk ke atas hotel.

omg..kita berasa beruntung banget
perjuangan dari jam 11 - 8mlm, akhirnya ....
terbayar banget sih perjuangan kita

Dan ga lama malah ketemu semua anggota (tapi minus si Mbak DOlores) di bawah lobby
akhirnya foto juga ama si Mike Hogan (the bassist).Lengkap deh foto gue bareng The Cranberries. Kita keluar dari Hotel Borobudur, lalu baru deh mereka masuk masing-masing dan ahem..Dolores keluar dari hotel, dan langsung masuk mobil sendiri (beda ma temen-temen anggota cranberries lainnya)

Well what a dream come true
yang tadi CUMA MIMPI...jadi BUKAN MIMPI DAN KENYATAAN

Thanks lord...you make this happen~
nothing of the grace of His Hands..that this happen.

Impian masa kecil,yang cuma mimpi sekarang beneran ketemu. Walopun cuma sebentar dan foto bareng...its more than i expected

Terekam ... ( Tak Pernah Mati )

2011-06-24T11:44:00.001+07:00

Jadi inget lagu nya The Upstairs...
ntah kenapa jadi pengen ngomongin tentang rekam me-rekam lagu...

Jaman ABG dulu, ketika kaset harga Rp.8rb an...
setiap ke mal beli kaset. Masalahnya beli tuh kaset untuk hanya dengerin 1-2 lagu yang hits. Hello~~ jaman dulu kaga ada mp3, jadi mau ga mau beli kasetnya dulu. Klo ngumpulin punya duit, baru deh beli CD.

Terus...dengan modal pengetahuan dari bokap tentang ngerekam kaset A ke kaset B. ( Masih inget kan, tape recorder jaman dulu yang bisa rekam kaset). Diambilah' 1-2 lagu itu tadi, direkam ke kaset kosong, dijadiin kompilasi deh :)
terus bagi-bagi ke temen...( kok ga kepikiran dijualin yak?!)
Berjibunlah tuh kaset. Sekarang ntah deh~~ pada dibuangin semua, since compo nya aja juga udah ga ada.

Lalu ketika kaset udah mahal...masih aja otak kreatif ada-ada aja
pas jaman udah gila Jejepangan nih ceritanya, hm...around 1999-2000 deh
mulai deh tetep pake tape recoder, kabel rca, eh direkam deh tuh lagu2 dari TV, jadi kaset!
Padahal sih, jaman itu udah ada napster, mp3...tapi warnet mahal cuy~~
jadilah lagu jejepangan dan mandarin gue up to date~~
courtesy of si kabelvision tadi

Terus beralihkan ke jaman CD
jeng..jong....baru deeehh maen download2 an, cd writer era , terciptalah Myo Corner
jualan online cd/vcd khusus jpop jrock , omzet lumayan cyinnn pada jaman itu.
Well, kenapa jpop jrock? Karena pada saat itu gue lagi gandrung-gandrung demen setengah hidup sama jepang. Dan scoop musicnya masih ke handle. Lagian klo yang barat dan international...beli CD aslinya aja ya beb~

Akhirnya tren pun selesai...
Jaman iPod...
dan gue pun udah sibuk yang laen...so silahkan download masing-masing. iTunes lah, Mediafire kek, or 4Shared sak-karep-mu alias terserah.

Dan gue pun...
download sana sini juga di ipod. Goodbye cassette, goodbye cd...
tapi again, yang udah terekam...ga pernah mati

So, since my mind is always wanting to go to the beach...
with a streaching hours of my work, so finally i made it!
im going to 3 island in one day!

Berangkat pagi-pagi, takut ketelatan...
jam 6.30 di Rawabuaya, Cengkareng...abis itu naik mobil omprengan ke Muara Kamal.
didalam mobil padahal ternyata peserta-peserta travel lainnya, cuma karena pada ga kenal....jadi we all kept quite.

Sampe di Muara Kamal, bayar Rp.5ribu, and then.....
fish eveywhere...yes its' amis and yucky but well namanya juga tempat pelelangan ikan. All your kakap asem manis, sushi maguro what-so-ever adalah berasal dari tempat ini saudara-saudara!! Tanya onoh inih, ketemulah base pointnya yaitu RUmah
ibu H.Pare. Jadi si ibu haji ini yang punya 4 kapal kayu-ber mesin yang kita naiki'

Kumpul semua peserta, total 13 orang, yang 2 adalah 1 guidenya, Yudha dan Are (fotografer). Breafing bentar, and then sekitar jam 9...capcus!!!

Naik kapal kecil kayu, setengah jam-an nyampe lah ke
Pulau Kelor

I heart this island! seriously!
still a virgin island, so what you have to do to get down from the boat is, jumping em' in the beach~~~ *norak ya

cuyyyy*

Still white sands...
klo sampah dikit-dikit, maklum ya...this is still in Jakarta region, what-da ya expect

Ada bekas Fort Mortello...all those red bricks...love it!!!
maen-maen di pantai paling lama disini. No sound at all, only seawaves...

Soal foto-foto ga usah ditanya yeeee..narsis mode pasti!!

Almost 1 hour-an lah, trus kita ke pulau ke dua
Cipir Island..

again cuma 10-15m lah~
daarn!! kesan pertama adalah, this island is creepy dude!

Dulunya bekas karantina haji, dan itu bangunan semua nya ancur, dengan pohon-pohon banyak banget.
aaaa...to creppy! trus disini juga yang namanya nyamuk..ganas-ganas
alhasil foto-foto bentar, n them i just go near the beach and playing with sands and the sea

Onrust Island
the biggest island...
so much history on this place, and then, Here, there's Warung and so many people fishing here. Di Onrust ini juga

ada Museum kecil. trus yaa..muter-muter sampe ke Makam Belanda lah~~ ke Makam DII/TII - Kartosoewiryo
dan maen-maen dibekas reruntuhan benteng..

Buat gue, inilah medan perjalan paling susah..
baru kali ini gue naekin' pager di makam belanda lah,trus naik turun ngelewatin karang, bekas

reruntuhan...rempong.com
tapi tetep aja nikmatin. Disini, badan gue dah low bat hahahaha

Overall again...its fun
for you yang adventures boleh..
buat kalian yang manja, takut amis, takut setan,takut kotor...kayaknya jangan deh yey,daripada ngerepotin yang laen cyiiinn

PS : Sun Burnt in my back still effing hurts!!

2010-12-30T08:58:00.005+07:00

15 Dec 2010
Night,

Trip ini sekalian sama kawinan best friend gue, LK di Manila
berangkatnya bareng-bareng sama teman dia juga (orang indo) tapi sebetulnya gue ngak terlalu kenal juga sih

Dateng dari jam 9 teng udah ngantri manis di Check in - Cebu Pacific
hampir aje telat gara-gara rombongan indo yang lain yang semua nya -miss telat...miss complain-

Pada inti nya wes...sampe lah duduk di pesawat
-skip-skip-skip kejadian mem-BT-kan

sampe lah gue di Manila

16 Dec 2010
Morning

Sampe di Nino Aquino International Airport
jam 6 pagi teng....
dijemput sama assistant dari si LK, naik mobil bersama rombongan Indonesia dibawalah kita ke hotel Peninsula - Manila, Makati.

sempet sih browsing-browsing nih hotel, so katanya nih 5 star - Hotel lumayan bersejarah karna 2007 kemaren, Hotel ini sempet diserang sama tentara ...yah ceritanya akan ada pembrontakan or gimaneee gitu...

Me, in front of the big xmas tree inside the hotel

Peninsula Hotel - Manila
Tampak Depan, Malam Hari

Sampe disana, baru bisa check in 10.30, jadiiii breakfast dan lazzinng ass di Escolta
resto kita untuk breakfast, tapi juga sepertinya dibuka untuk umum. Escolta itu yaa buffet all you can eat gitu.

10.30 bisa check in...langsung lanjot tiduuurrrr
sempet sih ngurusin ini onoh dokumen LK...(maklum seksi sibuk)
tapi jetlag juga sih...jam 2 siang dah bangun. Sebelumnya udah dikasih tahu,klo seberang hotel ini ada Glorietta Mall

Capcussss!!! soale mo beli air minum. ABis gue dah haus banget, dan di lemari es cuma ada Evian ( 1 botol gue minum, dicharga deh 150rb..pret!!) akhirnya ke Glorietta Mall itu ceritanya beli air minum mineral sekalian tuker duit.

So, dari Indo gue bawa USD and AUD, dan disono baru deh tuker duit

Ayala Avenue

Jalan kaki lah gue ke Glorietta Mall
(padahal ternyata di hotel ada shuttle bus...fark!)
jalan kaki seneng sih, bersih dan tenang. Trus masuk jembatan bawah tanah tunnel gitu (jadi ga cape2 takut nyebrang jalan)dan sampe lah...

sebelah kanan Ayala Avenue (boutique Mall) -> isinya ya gitu deeh Bvlgari,yg mahal2

sebelah kiri Glorietta Mall dkk --> kenapa gue bilang dkk (dan kawan-kawan)
karena nih mall kayak kompleks gitu dan nyambung satu sama lainnya. Di kompleks ini juga ada Shangrilla Hotel.

Jadi Glorietta Mall, Landmark, The Link, SM Makati, Shangrilla Hotel itu semua jadi satu.

Abis beli air minum merk Absolute *LOL* cape-cape bawa air minum n snack
eeehh nyampe dihotel baru disediain air minum merk Viva di kamar gue..
preeettttt!! ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Ayala Avenue

Didalem hotel...ada guling nya cyin!!

Breakfast calling dan kartu hotel Peninsula

Sore hari...

Nah! Greenbelt Mall ini dibelakang nya Glorietta Mall
dan AGAIN,ini Greenbelt juga nyambung menyambung menjadi satu Greenbelt 1 - 5!
untuk hiasan dan interior Greenbelt Mall lebih keren cuy! jadi ada kolam2, cafe-cafe sampe ditengah-tengah nya ada chapel gereja katolik gitu!

Makan Malam di Lorenzo Way! saraapp!! (sarap : enak, bahasa tagalog)

Me at Greenbelt

Tampak Greenbelt, pagi hari

Chapel di Greenbelt Mall

Ke Greenbelt Mall nya naik mobil, araound 30mnt an
(dan ternyata gue baru tahu,klo jalan kaki lebih cepet!, hal ini dikarenakan klo naik Mobil ya...muter-muter jalan dulu)

Sampe disono,si rombongan mo nge-bar dan gue asli dah pusing!!
kayaknya sih,karena kurang tidur...so jam 9 malem dan nyampe hotel, nonton bola ind vs filipin daaan bobo

17 Dec 2010
Morning

Pagi-pagi cantik sudah mo city tour!! *excited*
-skip-skip-skip kejadian mem-BT kan >>> again!! karena si rombongan -miss complain,miss telat-

Pada intinya berangkat lah gue ke

Joze Rizal Monument
jadi, si Joze Rizal ini pada intinya adalah pahlawan nasional bangsa filipin, dari doi adalah pahlawan dalam bidang pergerakan nasional. Dia bukan tentara tapi lebih ke novelis, literatur gitu...and yes! he had lots of gff (ga jauh2 cyiin sama soekarno!)

Abis dari Joze Rizal,
lanjut ke

Intramuros

jadi Intramuros itu kayak kompleks kota tua di Jakarta.
intinya ya...Benteng Spanyol gitu deh :) salah satunya ada Ford Santiago. Dan didalem nya Ford Santiago itu sendiri, isinya lagi-lagi tentang Joze Rizal

Keliling-keliling...

Didepan Ford Santiago, sama si Don
Australian,tapi sudah 10 tahun di Indo :)

Meriam nya sama kali ye bo! sama yang ada di Fatahila ha ha ha

Diatas benteng Intramuros

Bangunan-bangunan lama...deket sama toko yang jual souvenir

trus grup kita misah deh...
si rombongan -miss complain miss telat- pengen nya nge-mall
dan gue , Nela dan Don ( sisa rombongan yang OK) capcus ke ....

Ayala Museum

Tampak depan
thanks to Kim and Marinella, yang ngasih kita gratis!

Sebelum ke Ayala Museum, kita minum dulu di cafe nya
Ayala Museum, Museum modern empunya si Ayala Cooperation
(klo gue lihat sih, Ayala tuh kayak..Sampoerna or Bakrie gitu deh, jadi mang tycoon)

Nah nih museum sayangnya no bag, no pictures
jadi ya...ga ada foto-foto deh

Pas masuk, dibawalah kita ke lantai 4
Museum disana ga pake guide,cuma security yang suruh kita (pake bahasa tangan pula) suruh ke atas...

sampe disana kita di giring ke teather room (kecil sih) tapi modern, keren, big screen, disitu 15menitan lah, diceritain tentang asal mula nenek moyang Filipin

Pada intinya nenek moyang bangsa filipin, memang producing gold...emas!
dan setelah keluar dari teater room tadi...kita digiring, ke display-display emas tadi!

Gileee semua accesories emas dengan dikemas interior modern! Gue ga tau sih, tuh emas asli or dummy doank. Tapi dengan pengawalan ketat, dan museum yang bener2 no bag no pic, i assumed itu real gold 24 karat! ha ha ha ha

Turun ke Lt.3
tentang Filipin jaman dulu (tapi dah bukan nenek moyang), dan ada banyak keramik cina
(bingung gue...di museum mana aja, kota mana aja, sampe laen negara nih keramik cina selalu ada! wahahahahaha)

Lantai 2
tentang Art...so ada patung-patung kotemporary modern, lukisan-lukisan ya..semua koleksi si keluarga Ayala ini

Lantai 1
ada diorama-diorama cerita dari awal kehidupan orang Filipin hingga masa demokrasi modern...keren!! Diorama nya ga segede Haw Par Villa nya Singapore, jadi ga nyeremin ha ha ha ha

Dan disini ada gambar dan tinggi asli si Joze Rizal...yaaaaaa ternyata setinggi guee cyiin!!! (gue 152cm...'tinggi' ya cuy!)

Dari Ayala Museum

Don pengen balik ke hotel...sedangkan me and his wife,Nela capcus lanjut shopping ke Glorietta, dan SM Makati

Oh! ada pengalaman lucu...
selama city tour tadi, si LK (si punya acara di Manila) takut akan terjadi apa-apa, apalagi dirombongan kita ada 2 orang bule ( Don yg orang Aussie,dan Claudio orang itali) jadi kita dibawai' bodyguard

Seumur-umur ya cuy! Kemane-mane pake bodyguard lengkap sama walkie talkie and small gun!!

Jadi gue sama Nela +bodyguard ke SM Makati beli snack-snack filipin
dan keliling Glorietta Mall, sampe si bodyguard tadi kerjanya cuma bawain belanjaan kita!

fyi 1 PHP : 205 Rp...

Jollibee!!
dimana-mana nih resto ada...(Chow king juga!)
kangen ga seeh luuu ama Jollibee!!! , gue inget ultah ke 13 gue makannya di Jollibee

ini jollibee cuma 55PHP : 15ribuan...murah cong!!

Ini es campur cuma 7ribuan!!

Wedding Day

intinya

Gereja : San Antonio , Makati

*bagusss nyaaa*

trus resepsi

Coconut Palace

Konon, jamannya Marcos kalo ga salah, si Marcos bikin nih Coconut Palace biar si Paus Paul Johannes II bisa stay disini, dan of course it took lots of $$$, dan konon karena itulah si Paus ga suka (karena terlalu lebay)

tapi since udah jadi, jadi ya...tempat wisata deh
klo gue lihat si Coconut Palace itu ya kaya' bangunan rumah adat gitu deh,
nih lokasi pernah masuk di Amazing Race Asia lho! ha ha ha ha

tapi ya..gue nikmatin nih tempat only for the wedding reception
btw WC nya cuyy...parahh -___-

Lechon (babi guling a'la Filipin)

OK back to hotel...
nikmatin tuh renang, jacuzzi, trus malemnya ke Glorietta Mall lagi..
cari makan ha ha ha ha ha

19 Dec 2010

Sekali lagi nikmatin Greenbelt Mall
karena ga puas, pengen minum Max Brenner

Jadi yaa...
impian gue tuh, salah satu nya setidaknya pernah minum hot choco nya Max Brenner.
dan impian ini nawar cuy!! dari Max Brenner yang di Amrik, Aussie, Spore...eeeh kesampean yang ada di Manila!

wahahahahaha...such a drama queen lame...i know (and i dont care)

Abis itu capcus lagi gue ke

Mall of Asia

Secara yaaaa udah jauh-jauh ke Manila, kalo ga kesini sih -_-' lame banget
naik taxi...

emang sih, dah dibilangin ati-ati ke naik taxi di filipin
ya waspada dan capcus aja deh!

Taxi disono jelek2 bo..jarang yang bagus, dan sepertinya private owner gitu, tapi ada tulisanya Taxi meter. Si taxi driver fungky abis! Masih muda gitu, pake anting, rambut di-skin head, dan you knowwww..dia muter tuh lagu "Whip My Hair - Willow Smith" dengan volume pppoollll!!
//i whip my hair back and forthh i whip my hair back and fooorrthhh//
*i think i got seizure afterwards*

Sampe pokoke di Mall of Asia

anjroooottt neeh mall mang gede gila!! mabok deh gue sangking gede nya nih mall
ya muterin aja sih nih mall (tapi ga selesai juga)
trus...
gue lebih tertarik ke seberang nih mall, yaitu Manila Bay

Jadi si Mall of Asia ini seberangnya laut saudara-saudaraaaaa
di pinggir laut ini lah ngebolang sejati gue...
nyobain jajanan ini onoh, salah satu nya si Balut
( telur ayam yang isinya embryo) dan minum Gulaman (kayak liang teh gitu)

Balut dan teman-temannnya

Makanan Balut ini selalu ada di fear factor..sebagai tantangan...
ya karna isinya ayam setengah jadi...quite yucky sih kalo lu liat isinya ada si usus anak ayam, trus ada paruh kecil
tapi untuk rasa sih~~ biasa aja ya, kayak makan telur ayam kematengan dan isi kepala ayam...(pada makan kepala ayam ga sih kalian? gue sih doyan-doyan aja)

OK deh...
komplit udah misi ke Filipin! ke Mall of Asia dan makan Balut

Malem nya gue capcus ke Los Banos, Laguna
kota asal si LK ini

dan Los Banos tuh kayak puncak gitu 1 1/2 jam an lah nyampe
karena dah malam. tinggal di hotel Trace Suite

Jadi nih hotel sebetulnya kompleks sekolahan gitu
tapi sekolahan elite buat atlit!, cooking, nursing makanya liat tuh olympic size pool

pengen nyoba kolam renangnya tapi dingin cuyyy sedingin puncak !

Los Banos ini juga seperti...jatinagor gitu, jadi ada Univ of Philipin disono (kayak bandung yang punya UnPad gitu deh)

Kebetulan si LK ini memang dari keluarga high education banget, so ya...
cucok sama tempat tinggal nya.
nyokap nya LK adalah Antropologist ,
nenek (kita panggil Lola )nya punya gelar doctor dari Harvard Univ (yes...THAT harvard univ di USA),dan one of famous filipino lah.
neneknya yaitu Gelia T. Castillo (http://en.wikipilipinas.org/index.php?title=Gelia_T._Castillo)

Pemandangan Los Banos

Ok
perjalanan selesaiii
pulang ke Jakartaaaa -______-

back to daily life...

2NE1

2010-11-21T09:14:00.002+07:00

Sekarang lagi demen-demennya ma Kpop Girl Band, 2NE1
yeah...at first i hate Kpop, and well ga terlalu benci deh sekarang, tapi ga terlalu fancy.

Alasan gue suka 2NE1 karena ya...they have this upbeat pop dance hip hop music yang bener-bener mood booster.

Lagu pertama yang gue denger adalah "i dont care" dan lucunya, gue punya tuh lagu hampir 2 bulan baru gue googling tentang mereka. So sebelumnya, gue ga pernah tau model orang-orangnya kayak apa.

Yahh...abis googling sana-sini dan download lagu-lagunya....DAAAANN yang paling konyol adalah nontonin' 2NE1 TV season 2...moi gowd asli pelipur lara dan konyol banget!
Padahal gue ga ngerti apa pun tentang bahasa korea ha ha ha

Recomended artist!! Good!!

(owyah selain itu yang masih mau gue denger adalah 4Minutes, Super Junior dan Big Bang...selain itu cukup sepertinya he he he)
