the view i remembered

So here I am with another weird story. ehem...
For the last 2 days, i just realized that the view on my way back home at night is sooooo beautiful. My brain still have the record of it. I remembered when I stood up inside the bus, while listening to my mp3, I was watching outside the window too. I was on my way back from work and when the bus driven through the fly over at Kuningan, I discovered the beauty side of Jakarta at night. I saw many building with lights on, I saw Jakarta at night. I regretted so much that i didn't bring my camera with me -humph-. Because I don't have my own vehicle, so it's much better to not bring anything precious outside, especially at night. If I have a vehicle, I would've stopped for taking pictures.
So after I've seen the view for a while, the bus taken me passed it fastly. If I could posted what I saw, it would be lovely. My hands are itchy and my mind is full of thoughts, I have to do something. One day I want to take pictures of it.
When I first saw the view, I thought that the city is alive. I mean not about the people who lives in it, but the city itself is alive. In my mind the city was moving, growing and struggling. I saw mystery in it. Although I can't compare it to big cities like New York and Tokyo, but I think Jakarta has it's own personality. Arrogance and hypocrisy are the best when you picturing Jakarta. But, if I tried to think again, there are still more behind its arrogance and hypocrisy. Jakarta is a city with full of colors. You will find more than one color in here.You will find people who believes in supranatural stuff. You will find bad people. You'll find nice people but naive. You'll find creative people. You'll find gossips. You'll find smart people but with bad luck. You'll find stingy people. You'll find a generous people but hypocrite. You'll find people that pays well and otherwise. You'll find people who's too desperate too live and otherwise. You'll find piracy. You'll meet women with over make up. You'll find transexsual with so much confidence. You'll find gay, lesbian and bisexual. You'll find perfume with unreasonable price. You'll find idiotic people but with good lucks. You'll find street musician full of talent and not...etc, but most importantly you can find your world here. After all Jakarta is a big city, you can find almost everything here, materially.
One time, I heard from the Indonesian who lives overseas; "Indonesian people this... Indonesian people that...". This guy lives in overseas for so long, and I thought he can't understand the beauty being Indonesian. This Indonesian had lived in Jakarta for only 12 years. But I am better than this guy, I live in Indonesia for almost my entire life, and when this guy said Indonesian people it means Jakarta's people. I couldn't change this guy's opinion about Indonesia (read: Jakarta) it was simply because the guy is stubborn. Darn!
Well, I can't complaint about living in Jakarta. My blood is streaming of Jakarta's wave of life. I want to be out of this town, especially THIS country. It's beautiful, but I want to see this world more than Jakarta or Bali. I want to go around the world before I die =D
note: even though the picture does not related with what I am talking about, don't mind it. I just like to post something =P
by the way... that cactus is growing up well, love it!

iTunes music playlist

New idea of writing has just popped out! At last I have a chance to write some more in my blog. This time I want to write about my iTunes playlist. Lately I have been downloading hordes of albums and singles.

Ok now, firstly I've got Katy Perry with Californian Girls (feat. Snoop Dog). I like Katy Perry, she is pretty and sexy, even though she always dressed in such minimalist way, she doesn't look like a whore at all. In my opinion she is really a talented singer. Her singing voice is so unique, you'll know it's Katy once you heard it. The song is amazing and I've got a unique-agog feelings when I listened to the song.

Secondly I've got Pete Yorn and Scarlett Johansson with Relator. This song is very suitable for Scarlett's voice, their voice indulged your ear so much. When we're sick of love story, you just have to hear this song. It's highly recommended for any girls or guys who are breaking up with their lover. When you are breaking up with someone in such unpleasant way, you can say as Pete said... "You can leave whenever you want out... You don't relate to me..."

And third, I've got a song from Boyce Avenue titled Every Breath. The lyric is so touching. I saw their video in Youtube. The video shows us a story about a man that in his entire life loving one woman until he'd been left out by the woman's death. It's about his memories with this woman that he knew from childhood. This song is greatly performed by Boyce Avenue. I am so glad that they performed their own song- i think- because they are usually recycling other singer or band's songs. But...i don't know if their single is their own or not. Oh well..next.

Fourth, I've got Owl City's albums, they are Ocean Eyes and Maybe I'm Dreaming. Overall I love his music in both albums. My sister said, "He is a very superstitious man". When she told me that, i read every lyrics in both of his albums. It's true. He's one talented person in making music. I am sick of love song and I've got Owl City, thank you!

Fifth, I've got YUI's albums, they are Can't Buy Me Love, From Me To You, I Loved Yesterday, My Short Stories, Summer Song (single album). I really like this Japanese musician. She is one talented girl and a very well known as a talented musician in her country, Japan. She managed to spread her music to the world. Even though I have a little bit of knowledge in Japanese language, however, she can make people loves her music.

I think when it comes to music, it doesn't matter what language that was used in the song, we listened to music with our heart after all. Too bad for several people whom can't enjoy music when they don't understand the lyric.

There are so many songs in my iTunes playlist, but it's too many... I will tell again about it later on, if I've got the chance. Ciao.
