Secret in Public

In the online world where privacy can no longer keep in silent in public, I try so hard to keep mine. Silly isn't it? Well in the perfect world, we do not need to keep our secret because everyone would respect our privacy and mind their own business. BUT there is no perfect world. People will always try to know about your secret. Based on my own opinion, people LOVE to gossip, well... to be honest I like to gossip too sometimes... LOL!

How can I hide my privacy in public? Mm... I'm so naive. How can I think I can hide my secret publicly? Well, if it is a secret you better keep it. But it depend to the circumstance that we are facing. Must admit that we need to share our burden and problem yet we have to be careful to choose the right person or space. Usually when I face to that kind of circumstance (sharing my burden or problem), I go to God first. When I have to tell someone... I pick the person carefully.

What happen when our secret is expose to the public? We have 2 choices:
1. Do nothing - remain calm if the secret doesn't have a big impact in our life
2. Stand up and fight for my privacy - fight for it in every way

Keeping secret is the best way to maintain your privacy. So, I guess we better select which information to be share in public. When we share it on public, we have to realize the risk. Choose it carefully, because others may dig your secret and use it in the wrong way.

BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR SECRET!!!

Karena Ku Sanggup

I love this song very much. It has a very sad lyric yet it shows power; a power of love that allow someone to get through the darkest moment. I hardly watch the video clip of this song but when I watched a live performance by the singer, Agnes Monica, wow... I can directly sense how sad this song and how powerful love is. Here is the lyric:

KARENA KU SANGGUP

by Agnes Monica

biar aku sentuhmu berikanku rasa itu / let me touch you, give that feeling
pelukmu yang dulu pernah buatku / your hug that was belonged to me
ku tak bisa paksamu tuk tinggal di sisiku / I can not force you to stay with me
walau kau yang selalu sakiti aku dengan perbuatanmu / no matter how much you hurts me
namun sudah kau pergilah jangan kau sesali / leave now and don't regret it


reff:
karena ku sanggup walau ku tak mau / because I can although I don't want it
berdiri sendiri tanpamu /  to stand alone without you
aku mau kau tak usah ragu tinggalkan aku / I want you not to doubt to leave me
kalau memang harus begitu / if it has to be this way

tak yakin ku kan mampu hapus rasa sakitku / not sure I am able to erase this pain
ku selalu perjuangkan cinta kita namun apa salahku / I always fight for our love but what is my mistake
hingga ku tak layak dapatkan kesungguhanmu / til I don't deserve your sincerity

repeat reff.

tak perlu kau buat aku mengerti / no need to explain to me
tersenyumlah karena ku sanggup / just smile because I can

I'm trying my best to translate the lyric... Sorry if it wasn't good enough.

It's not a new song, but it gives a perfect reflection of my feeling. A feeling for fighting so hard but have to give up. A feeling of disappointment and unappreciated. Have you ever had this kind of feeling? I believe I can get through this moment just as the song said... "karena ku sanggup".

 加油 (Jiāyóu)!!!

You Are In My Mind

You are in my mind

Is a smile that brighten my days

You are in my mind

Is a melody that lighten my ways

You are in my mind

Is a whisper that accompany my steps

You are in my mind

Is a love that fulfill my life

You

I miss You!

You knew exactly what I want to hear

You always encourage me to move on
You can sense that something was wrong with me
You were there to comfort me when I cry
You understood me in a many way 

I miss You so much!

Journey: MAKASSAR

Finally I went to another island of Indonesia, Sulawesi. This time I visited Makasar. I spent 3 days there but I hardly explore the city. Well, I blamed it to the weather which rain all the time... ha ha ha.

It was a lovely short vacation, I gain more weight since I ate a lot in a big portion ha ha ha. There are some local dishes that encourage me to eat, such as: coto Makasar, sop konro Karebosi, es pisang ijo, seafood with unique fishes, and mie titi. Mmmm, yummy!!!

 Coto Makasar

 Sop Konro Karebosi

 Es Pisang Ijo

 Fried Kudu Kudu Fish

Mie Titi

I also visited some place which are the icon of Makasar, such as Pantai Losari (Losari Beach) and Trans Studio. Watching sunset at Pantai Losari was great but once again the rain destroy it. Playing at Trans Studio was the only option to spend Sunday. Trans Studio is an indoor theme park. Compare to Genting theme park... this one is not as challenging as I imagine it would be yet I enjoy watching the live musical drama.

I hope I can visit this place again someday, to explore more.
