Apa Kabar, Bo?

on
  Apa kabar, Bo? Kemarin saya ke Gramedia. Sanctuary saya pas jaman SD. Dulu waktu Hero Swalayan masih ada di Gatot Subroto. Biasanya saya ke sana setelah ngumpulin duit jajan seminggu dan bisa buat beli komik. Ngga seperti sekarang, dulu banyak komik yang sampul plastiknya terbuka, jadi saya puas-puasin baca sebelum akhirnya beli cuma satu.  Jaman itu majalah Bobo tidak setipis sekarang. Apalagi pas edisi khusus, tebalnya bisa ngalahin kamus. Hahaha, bercanda ya, Bo. Bobo benar-benar teman bermain dan belajar saya, ada beberapa dongeng dunia yang sampai detik ini saya masih ingat. Ada juga dongeng lokal yang jadi favorit saya. Mungkin penulis Bobo sudah lupa, ada sebuah cerpen, yang memuat cerita ibu petani yang asik bekerja hingga anaknya kelaparan. Saya ingat ada syairnya: tingting gelinting, perutku sudah genting, kelaparan mau makan. Saya kemudian meniru syair tersebut dan dimarahin Mama. Beliau bilang, ngga pantas didenger orang. Oh ya, Bo. Mama adalah orang yang berjasa...

Korean Soothing Songs

on

I'm a slightly big fan of KPOP, from Big Bang to Ikon. From Wonder Girls to Twice. From FT Island to N Flying. But, when it comes to healing a heartbreak, this KPOP songs wont help much. Just because I'm busy fangirling than healing. Like I spent more time to enjoy their wardrobe and choreography. Give a little damn about the music.

Since lately I have to live with a broken heart, this playlist will do me justice. Their soothing tunes and whispering voice calm my nerve. Calling tears I have been hold since forever. And their messages, well, you have to give it a try. I know some of you belittle Korean music and it's yours to choose. But, listening to one song wont do you any harm.

Remember to switch on subs whenever available. Music, start!

Zitten - Whale


 My first founding on Zitten was when I work for NYLON Indonesia and often adjusting articles from NYLON all over the world. One of Zitten's song was using as a background music in NYLON Korea Photoshoot. It was a wet December, I tend to fall apart on December and Zitten's songs pulling me together.

Nam Taehyun - Hug Me


 I was crying a river when NamTae leaves Winner. It's like I don't have any reason to listening to Winner's songs. I was waiting, waiting and waiting. Crazy but I feel NamTae's pain not much different with mine. So when finally NamTae's back with South Club, I have no other choice than to love him more.

OKDAL - You Did Well Today


 OKDAL is a medicine I take for my severe insomnia. This Korean indie folk music gives me tickles and on the same time release my tense muscles. I also love how their lyrics is a simple thing everyone can relate with. Their calming tunes is a bonus.
