*tips..listen through your earphone..on your silence..while doing nothing..not recommended to play on a car with bunch of friends while gossiping :)

Inní Mér Syngur Vitleysingur

Á silfur-á (a silver river)
Lýsir allan heiminn og augun blá ( illuminates the whole world and blue eyes)
Skera stjörnuhiminn (cut the starry sky)
Ég óska mér og loka nú augunum (I make a wish and close your eyes now)
Já, gerðu það, nú rætist það ( yes, do that, may it now come true)
Ó nei (oh no)

Á stjörnuhraða (at the speed of the stars)
Inni í hjarta springur, flugvélarbrak ( inside my heart explodes, an airplane rumble)
Ofaní jörðu syngur ( cracked open the earth sings)
Ég óska mér og loka nú augunum ( i make a wish and close your eyes now )
Já, gerðu það, lágfara dans (yes, do that, let's go dance)
Allt gleymist í smásmá stund og rætist það (everything is forgotten in a bliss, and may it come true)
Opna augun (i open my eyes)
Ó nei (oh no)

Minn besti vinur hverju sem dynur ( my best friend whatever may happen)
Ég kyngi tári og anda hári ( i swallow a tear and breathe in your hair)
Illum látum, í faðmi grátum ( making a ruckus, we cry on each other's arms)
Þegar að við hittumst ( when we meet)
Þegar að við kyssumst (when we kiss)
Varirnar brenndu, höldumst í hendur ( lips burning, holding hands)
Ég sé þig vakinn (i see you waking up)
Ég sé þig nakinn (i see you naked)
Inní mér syngur vitleysingur (within me a lunatic sings)
Alltaf þið vaða, við hlaupum hraðar (always you wade, we run faster)
Allt verður smærra (everything becomes smaller)
Ég öskra hærra (i scream louder)
Er er við aða, í burtu fara (am about to wade, going away)

Minn besti vinur hverju sem dynur ( my best friend whatever may happen)
Illum látum, í faðmi grátum ( making a ruckus, we cry on each other's arms)
Ég kyngi tári og anda hári ( i swallow a tear and breathe in your hair)
Þegar að við hittumst (when we meet)
Þegar að við kyssumst (when we kiss)
Varirnar brenndu, höldumst í hendur (lips burning, holding hands)
Ég sé þig vakinn ( i see you waking up)
Ég sé þig nakinn ( i see you naked)
Inní mér syngur vitleysingur (within me a luntic sings)

My Lunch

usually i pick the lunch menu, really based on how i work that day..
and actually not many variation..so here we go..

1. Aceh/Padang/Nasi uduk
this can be ordered with egg, fish, or chicken. my fave is chicken, but nowadays i order egg instead. if i have this for lunch means i have a tough day, many things to do and i want to finish them so i really need to have rice for my energy. its like im a good mood of working and really need fuel for my engine

2. Meatball and Noodle
i can order meatball only, or with noodle, or noodle only (but different type of noodle). it means my day is so so, nothing special, no hard times. but usually i have this when i feel a bit cold or flu..

3. Gudeg
this also can be ordered with chicken or egg or tofu. instead of chicken, for this i prefer to have with egg and tofu. it taste sweet. hahaha..if i order this one, actually same as the menu number one. tough day, many things to do,..but the difference is im not in a mood of doing my job..haha..

4. Green Bean Porridge / Siomay
ouchh..if i have these ones, mean im not going to have overtime. finish or unfinish, i'll leave the office at 4pm. my job is not as hard as usual, or its saturday which is half day.

5. Only Juice
if i only take this at lunch, mean i dont bring my brain that day.

Quarterlife Crisis

i've been on difficult time recently..not many people know, cos i dont express it..
i just share it to my close friend..well its not a big big problem, but its a process when i start questioning some things : why is that? can i do that? is it too late? is she better than me? etc etc..

(some people said) it is Quarterlife Crisis..
i dont know much about it, just knew it yesterday from my bff..

from what i read here, quarterlife crisis usually occurs sometime in your twenties, a few years out of school and still feel as though you're waiting for you're life to begin.
It's an age where a lot people start developing a more realistic outlook in life and start feeling that if they haven't accomplished certain things in life they thought they would by then that they may never.. *ouchhhhh...thats what i feel also..

i regret why i refused scholarship to holland
i regret why i didnt study french well..
i regret that i cant graduate soon (took 5years, usually it only 4years)
i regret i refused working as an apprentice in big advertising agency
and not achieving things that i wanted since i was a kid, make me feel that i fail as a human being..i fail to be the one i want to..

i also feel that people are a lot better than me..
she is more beautiful..
(another) she is more clever..
(another) she speaks more languages that i do..
(another) he has opportunity to continue study abroad..
and im afraid that i cant be as good as they are..

i also feel insecure about my life..
can i live by myself?
about my job..is it the right job? what if i quit?? can i find another job?
what if im jobless??
about relationship..and social..and climbing social ladder..

im sick of the world that obsessed with how well we dress, how do we look..
what have we achieved..how fancy is our car..how expensive our shoes are..
who is our boyfriend..

well..these i already shared with my bff..and they said that they have the same thought..
for the first time i think that im too greedy, not thankful to what God has given me, not satisfied with what i have..
but then i browse and find a very interesting article about Quarterlife Crisis, and its far better then what i write here..so i just share the link so everybody can read :)

the interesting paragraph about Quarterlife Crisis on that article is :

This phenomenon, known as the “Quarterlife Crisis,” is as ubiquitous as it is intangible. Unrelenting indecision, isolation, confusion and anxiety about working, relationships and direction is reported by people in their mid-twenties to early thirties who are usually urban, middle class and well-educated; those who should be able to capitalize on their youth, unparalleled freedom and free-for-all individuation. They can’t make any decisions, because they don’t know what they want, and they don’t know what they want because they don’t know who they are, and they don’t know who they are because they’re allowed to be anyone they want.

*hope i can go through this well.. anyway i asked my mom, she said she never had this when she was twenty.. well i guess the world has change.

another faith-quote from my far away aunty..
i like the first one since few years ago, i was thinking to tattoo it on my back. but then i cancelled because my brother told me thats his school's tagline * i think tagline is not the correct word..by the way his school is John de Britto College*

Ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam
