Deep Thoughts Trilogy Part 2 : Life


Like usual I like to start with flashback of the monumental events (If I can say monumental..lol) in my life since my last post. It’s been almost two weeks since my last post. Things went so fast and suddenly its already middle October.

Started with Sunday, October 2nd 2005. I went to NAV again. This time Jef came along. We sang for 2 hours at NAV 3, Bowo n Maria also came..I don’t have to tell the big boss…..David…hehehehehehe. He returned some CDs of mine. After that we (me, Jef n Eddy) went to C4 Cempaka Mas. It was very crowded…so many people. Maybe because it was the beginning of month or maybe because Moslems were about to begin fasting. Yeah, fasting month began at Oct 5. After Sunday, the week went quite slowly….but it was actually quite busy week. Went to Bandung for he 2nd time with my new Business Manager. Ate at Sindang Reret again, this time I tried the Fried Rice n iced lemon tea. It was very good…….Most important event on that week was deciding to go to Perth. I applied a passport with lots of help from my aunt. Thank you so much aunt….Got the passport at Tuesday, Oct 11. I’ve been busy in providing all necessary documents to apply for a visa. I’m so bored but also excited thinking the possibility to go to Australia. At Oct 8, went to Gadink w Grace n Dana. I met some friends there, Wendy, Conan n friends who ended up joined us (we played pool together) and Ronaldy. We closed our little “reunion” by eating n talking at café Excelso..

Midori…..I met her (not a real name…hehehhe) at YM and after that we often chat n send emails. She’s feisty….maybe because of her zodiac..which I can’t reveal here,…;p She’s attractive.. two nights ago I chatted with uknee,ll,etc….Damn….i’m so sleepy… I still have to get the voucher for visa application…30 minutes from lunch time…I…. Midori just replied my email…..Oh well, nevermind…

Life….Oh Life…. Oooo Life…. (Desree’s song, Life)…isn’t it funny how time seems to slip away so fast…One minute you’re happy the other you’re sad…..(The Moffatts song, If Life Is So Short)…Life….I’ve given lots of thought about it and still……what’s the purpose of life? Why do we live? What’s the most important thing in life? How do you define success? Wealth? Fame? Financial/Social status?

Those are the questions I still trying to figure out….I’m gonna continue later…my mind is quite a mess now……maybe after lunch (n some pool session) it’ll get clearer.

A new day…continuing this post…today is Friday. I’m freee…..for the rest of the day….lol….the bosses are having management meeting……yeahhhhh…listening to JTL – My Lecon right now…well today is quite good…I finally knew the title of the song that I was looking for so long… It was I Say a Little Prayer by The Holy Groove (I’m not sure with the singer….)….writing this post while making bullboard….now the song is Jay Chou’s Qi Li Xiang…

Okay let’s get back to business…..Life…how do you measure success in life? What is happiness? Do you measure your happiness by the amount of money you have? More money means more happy? A friend of mine once asked, ”Are you happy with your life (in scale of 1-10)?” I said I give 7. Personally, I think success is more than just how much money you have, but I think it’s more like what have you accomplished. What’s your legacy for the world…well..at least how you make an impact in the lives of people who’s around you…your friends…etc..i’m not saying that money is not important….but it is not everything…yeah…life is not fair…sometimes we see there’re few people who seem to have so much money….but does it mean that they happy? dunno… and what about the poor…sometimes when I’m at traffic light and see the street kids (anak jalanan in Indonesian) I can’t help but wonder…what does the future hold for them? I don’t know if they’re thinking about their future, coz I think all they can think of is how to survive each day..Are they happy with their life? What does happiness mean to them? The gap between the rich n the poor is way too deep…to big to bridge……

Well…to me…everything means nothing without God, my family n friends…I really like Alicia’s song If I Ain’t Got You..well…I think I’m gonna end here….I already booked 2way ticket to Perth …hopefully the visa can be approved asap so can meet my sis, hamlet n bluefairy… after this I’m gonna write an email for Midori….she sent me her pics from high school….she’s look very different…she seems much more confident now…..okay….enjoy the song…….


Alicia Keys - If I Ain't Got You

Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the visible things
Define what’s within
And I’ve been there before
But that life’s a bore
So full of the superficial

Chorus :

Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain’t got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you, Yeah

Some people search for a fountain
The promise is forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that’s the only way to prove you love 'em
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be
With no one to share
With no one who truly cares for me

Chorus twice

If I aint got you with me baby

oh said nothing in this whole
wide world dont mean a thing

If I aint got you with me baby
