Last nite went to the 3rd Novena..it was another wonderful experience. Arrived there at 5.10 PM. People were already waiting in front of the function room. Met Eddy n the others when I was going to the bathroom. Then Ladies came not so long after that. We waited and we were allowed to enter the room at 5.40 PM. The stage was big. N then Rhea called me, asked me to “baby-sit” her friend from Bogor. She was wearing black “New Springtime” polo shirt, white pants that reached to her knees and a pair of sneakers. She looked gorgeous. When she talked the most prominent thing that I noticed was her exquisite scent. I didn’t know what she used but it’s veryyyyyy gooooddd… I really love her jasmine scent….so refreshinggg……..hmmmmmmmmm…. It was hard for me to focus on what she’s saying because I was drifted by her intoxicating scent. The feeling was so sublime. It made me want to breathe her scent over and over again. Her scent reminded me of Jay’s song (which I’m listening right now while writing this blog), Qi Li Xiang…or in English, Seven Mile Fragrance.
Common Jasmine Orange belongs to rutaceae, evergreen small bush. It has a lot of branches, leaves alternate, grizzled, has strong incense, in teachings you can still smell the fragrance from as far as 7 Chinese miles, therefore the name is Common Jasmine Orange (Seven Mile Fragrance, or in Chinese, Qi Li Xiang).
Common Jasmine Orange / Seven Mile Fragrance
The sparrow outside the window
Has a big mouth on the wire pole
You said this sentence
Has very much the feeling of summer
The pencil in my hand
Moves back and forth on the paper
I use a few lines of words to describe who you are to me
The taste of sanma
The cat and you both want to understand
The fragrance of first love is retrieved by us just like this
That warm sunshine
Is like the just picked bright strawberry
You say you are not willing to eat this kind of feeling
Chorus:
Rain falls for the whole night
My love overflows like the rain
Leaves fall in the courtyard
With my thoughts one thick pile
A few words of gossip
There is no way it can cool off my passion
You appear in every page of my poem
Rain falls for the whole night
My love overflows like the rain
The butterfly on the windowsill
Is like the beautiful chapters fluttering about in the poem
Shortly after
I write I always love you into the end of the poem
You are the only understanding I want
That which is full of ears of the rice plant
Blessed this season
And your cheek is like the thoroughly ripe tomato in the field
You suddenly say to me
The name of the Common Jasmine Orange is very beautiful
Yet this moment I only wanted to kiss your stubborn lips
Chorus twice
Rain falls for the whole night
My love overflows like the rain
The butterfly on the windowsill
Is like the beautiful chapters fluttering about in the poem
Shortly after
I write I always love you into the end of the poem
You are the only understanding I want
七里香

This song is especially dedicated for Rhea, the Jasmine Scent Girl…
The Catholic Youth Revival theme for last nite was Celebrate Love n Life, emphasizing the youth and sex. There was a video which showed the abortion process explicitly. It’s quite…shocking and utterly heartrending. The topic was brought excellently by dr. Lia B A.
The event was right on the schedule. It finished at around 9.30 PM (because we used a function room so the timing was quite tight). As usual we took some pictures and then I knew why Rhea asked me to “baby-sit” coz she had to sell some souvenirs…went down the parking lot with Ladies n friends. N the other surprise that I got was when I was in the queue to pay for the parking. I saw a beautiful girl (and some other people…but I didn’t really pay much attention to them…lolz) who’s selling flowers. And when I got a closer look, I quickly recognized her as Susan, my junior at high school. She wore turquoise shirt n jeans. Wow…she’s still beautiful though her hair was shorter. I wanted to say hi, but I didn’t do it. Instead, I just looked at her from my car. Her face contour was flawless. She has this elegant beauty aura, just by standing there, looking the cars (and maybe hoping some of the car window would open and the person inside buy the flowers she’s selling). Her eyes, cheek, nose, lips…I could only admire them.
So many beautiful girls…lolzzzz…. Reminded me of Gigi’s song, Diva which a part of the lyric was something like this…. “Kau adalah keindahan, yang singgah dalam kesunyian malamku”… Women really are a beauty created by God…. ;p
Neri Per Caso – Donne
Donne in cerca di guai
Donne a un telefono che non suona mai
Donne in mezzo a una via
Donne allo sbando senza compagnia
Negli occhi hanno dei consigli
E tanta voglia di avventure
Se hanno fatto molti sbagli
Sono piene di paura
Le vedi camminare insieme
Nella pioggia o sotto il sole
Dentro pomeriggi opachi
Senza gioia né dolore
Donne pianeti dispersì
Per tutti gli uomini così diversi
Donne amiche di sempre
Donne alla moda
Donne contro corrente
Negli occhi hanno gli aeroplani
Per volare ad alta quota
Dove si respira l'aria
E la vita non è vuota
Le vedi camminare insieme
Nella pioggia o sotto il sole
Dentro pomeriggi opachi
Senza gioia né dolore
Donne

[Women in searching for troubles]
[Women on a telephone which never rings]
