Read This When You Want To Give Up

 I keep listing the reasons why I can't kill myself. And each day it gets shorter. Still, I live. Liking my job, taking care of others, set goals, and actually achieved it. All while still wanna die. So I try to understand, what's exactly in my brain. What's I'm looking for. What's the drive that gets me up every morning. Why I'm in constant pain. Maybe I'm just dramatic, a little bit melancholy. I know what I want is for the pain to stop. And I need to know where the bleeding is to stop it. What and who hurts me. Or No matter what and who, when and how, I need to accept and forgive. Forgive that I can't change the past, I can't change people. Accept that I only can control myself. To tough up and not let it hurts. Maybe this is not about me. Maybe the what and the who weren't aware that they hurt me. It's like a circle. While they tried to protect themselves, they unintentionally hurt others.

Beastly Idol is Back!
What time is it? It’s 2PM! 11 November 2011, Gogirl! baru aja  mengalami the hottest night ever. Yes, you guess it right, it’s 2PM Hands Up Asia Tour 2011. Setelah bulan Maret lalu idol asal Korea ini bikin heboh karena cuma tampil sebentar, mereka kembali untuk menggelar konser tunggal, as they promised us before.
Tepat pukul 2 siang, penonton mulai memadati area JITEC Mangga Dua Square, antrian menumpuk hingga ke lantai 6. Dan semua duduk dengan tertib menunggu gate dibuka 4 jam kemudian. Molor setengah jam dari jadwal, Taec dkk muncul ke depan panggung, langsung membawakan 3 lagu Hot, Electricity dan Hands Up. Selesai Hands Up, Taec meminta penonton untuk tenang sebentar. “ Please don’t stand on your seat, you can fall and get hurt.” Ucapnya. Kompakan, semua Hottest duduk tenang di bangkunya masing-masing. But it wasn’t for long, begitu 2PM mulai nyanyiin track selanjutnya, the crowd went crazy again. Well, Taec, we just love you guys so much!
Total 24 lagu sejak debut dibawain semua oleh 2PM. Karaoke massal nggak terhindari pas intro I Can’t terdengar. Kehebohan makin menjadi pas single dari album Jepang 2PM I’m Your Man dinyanyiin. Masih ada lagi pertunjukan solo dari masing-masing personil kayak Junsu yang ngebawain single Alive-nya, Taec and Khun duet for My Valentine, dan pertunjukan samurai dari Channie. Pas break di tengah acara, penonton disajikan video keseharian 2PM waktu nyiapin konser di Jakarta.
Menjelang pukul 10 malam, 2PM akhirnya pamitan. Video  Thank You dipasang pas 2PM turun panggung. Hottest yang belum rela idolanya pulang, ikutan nyanyiin lagu Thank You. As expected, 2PM muncul lagi di panggung. “This is for my Hottest” ucap Channie memulai track Thank You. Konser benar-benar selesai setelah dua lagu remix 10 out of 10 dan Hands Up.  Baik 2PM maupun Hottest tampak puas dengan konser ini. “ You guys are awesome!” teriak Wooyoung. We had so much fun. Thank you, 2PM. Saranghanda.
