AKB 48 - RIVER

I know AKB48 because people here talking about them lately, although they have been exist since around 2005. where have I been?? in Indonesia Yayushi the founder of AKB48 creates JKT48 sister group of AKB48. I don't know what AKB48's songs are, I have a friend who likes AKB48 a lot and she recommended me 'Give Me Five!' so it's the first song I know from them, the song is so cheerful and fun. but because I'm afraid reputed out of date, so I search them on youtube, and I found 'River', at first it sounds ordinary, but River can't get out of my mind. the music is so beautiful. so I tried to find the meaning of the song, and you know when you know the meaning of the song, it's so deep. I can't stop to listen to it. it cheers me up. it makes me wake up to reach my dream, and face everything in front of me. it's telling me that I can do it.

these are the lyrics

AKB–!
48!
Move forward! (Got it!)
Don’t stop! (Got it!)
Walk the road of hope
To the place where the sun rises!
A river! River! River! Blocking your way
A river in your way!
A river! River! River! Of fate
A river that tests you!
Cast aside your doubts!
Show some guts!
Don’t hesitate!
Take a step
Right now! Believe yourself!
Forward, forward!
Go straight forward!
Cross the river!! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho!
Dreams always
Seem far away
They feel out of your reach
Pick up
One of the stones at your feet
And throw it
With all your might!
There’s a river
Running before your eyes
A big, wide river
Even if it’s deep and dark
Even if the current is fast
You don’t need to be afraid
It may be far away
But, yes, there’s a bank on the other side
Have more faith in yourself
Swim with all your might
Through the dark
Don’t look back! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho!
When you stretch out your hand
You’ll find your future there
Don’t give up, thinking you can’t reach it
The stone you threw
Will make your dream come true
You won’t even hear it land
There’s a river
Running in your heart too
The river of hard times
Even if things don’t go well
Even if you drown sometimes
Just try again
Don’t give up
There’ll be a bank
You’re sure to get there someday
Get over it!
River!
Ah-ah-ah-ah-
Don’t make excuses to yourself!
Ah-ah-ah-ah-
You won’t know until you try!
Ah-ah-ah-ah-
Nothing for it but to go straight forward!
Keep on walking
Forever, forever, forever
Down the road you’ve chosen!
There’s a river
Running before your eyes
A big, wide river
Even if it’s deep and dark
Even if the current is fast
You don’t need to be afraid
It may be far away
But, yes, there’s a bank on the other side
Have more faith in yourself
There’s a river
Running in your heart too
A river of sweat and tears!
Even if you fail
Even if you’re swept away
Just start over
Never say die
Hang onto your dreams
Until the day your wishes come true
Cross the river!
You can do it!

Mama's Birthday!

it's 20th august the day after raya. we bought a cake for mama, at 12AM my brother enter in to her room and frighten her. she frightened to death and we did it succesfully. forgive us mama.
at noon we went to beach, the beach was so beautiful and the sand looked like snow.

Close to Midnight

Lying in bed
Gazing up at the
Glow-in-the-dark stars
On my ceiling.
I'm thinking of you

Lying in bed
Gazing up at your ceiling.
Maybe thinking of me
At this very same
Moment.

I'm thinking that
You've never seen my stars
Glow in the dark,
And wondering
If you ever will.

We could happen

It's the second raya
I spend with you just on my head inside
I still remember
How I prayed to be able to spend
this year raya with you
But god has another plan
And it's definitely the best
The way you talk, it's simple but feels great to me
I feel everything has changed a lot
Last year not many people knew you
And now you're known by lots of people
It feels strange at first, but I have to accept the reality
The more you special, the harder I pray, the harder I study, the better I do, just for you sake.
I still remember when you said that you were tired driving back home
And I just felt like driving you to anywhere you wanna go
I know you like 'pull' tea a lot
And you know what, I like it too
Hey. We could happen

#BackInHighSchool #20August

I saw #BackInHighSchool was on trending topics world wide. So many things happened during my high school time, either good or bad things. I'm not going to tell you about the good thing this time, but I hope you'll get lesson from it.
It was 3 years ago, at the beginning of my third year of high school. I and my friends were talking and joking in the canteen, suddenly came one of our friends from class, he brought an answer paper and walked to us enthusiastically, he said 'Dipo,Dipo you know what, you dead, look at your math score!' then he showed the paper to us, and it wrote '0'. I didn't know what to say, I only gave smile a lot. then my friends ran to get into the class to look their own score.
that day was my mom's birthday, I was definitely sad. The only thing that I proud of was I didn't cheating in the exam, but I was sad cz I didn't study hardly. I hadn't done my best.
I promise to myself to work hard, and get a better result next time. it always work, you know I never think that I can cheat on exam, it helps me to use my own capability in exams.

Again

I thought that smile was the last smile I could see

but you gave it again last night

I thought you would never call my name

but you did it again last night

I thought we would like don't know each other when we meet

but you made me like I'm your best friend last night

I don't dare to make any expectation anymore

because everything can happen

and happen for a reason

like last night

there is a reason behind what I write above

again

Hello 'August'

No matter how good you do, people will always get you wrong and bring you down. But don't be offended, just do better instead.
