Freshmen

Okay, here is another old good song.

When I was young I knew everything
She a punk who rarely ever took advice
Now I’m guilt stricken, sobbing with my head on the floor
Stop a baby’s breath and a shoe full of rice

I can’t be held responsible
‘Cause she was touching her face
I won’t be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and we’d never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe we’d ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

My best friend took a week’s vacation to forget her
His girl took a week’s worth of valium and slept
Now he’s guilt stricken sobbing with his head on the floor
Thinks about her now and how he never really wept he says

I can’t be held responsible
‘Cause she was touching her face
I won’t be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and we’d never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe we’d ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

We’ve tried to wash our hands of all of this
We never talk of our lacking relationships
And how we’re guilt stricken sobbing with our heads on the floor
We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip, we’d say

I can’t be held responsible
‘Cause she was touching her face
I won’t be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and we’d never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe we’d ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and we’d never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe we’d ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen
We were merely freshmen
We were only freshmen

Til Kingdom Come

By Coldplay

Still my heart and hold my tongue
I feel my time, my time has come
Let me in, unlock the door
I’ve never felt this way before

And the wheels just keep on turning
The drummer begins to drum
I don’t know which way I’m going
I don’t know which way I’ve come

Hold my head inside your hands
I need someone who understands
I need someone, someone who hears
For you, I’ve waited all these years

For you I’d wait ’til kingdom come
Until my day, my day is done
And say you’ll come and set me free
Just say you’ll wait, you’ll wait for me

In your tears and in your blood
In your fire and in your flood
I hear you laugh, I heard you sing
I wouldn’t change a single thing

And the wheels just keep on turning
The drummers begin to drum
I don’t know which way I’m going
I don’t know what I’ll become

For you I’d wait ’til kingdom come
Until my days, my days are done
And say you’ll come and set me free
Just say you’ll wait, you’ll wait for me.

Just say you’ll wait, you’ll wait for me.
Just say you’ll wait, you’ll wait for me.

Little Things About You

You’re the most-awful-rude-person, but always tell the truth.
The most words that out of your mouth are about fact, purpose, and ruction
But you never try to hurt others, and me.
You’re accompanying me when i got insomnia.
You asked me to talk, but you blamed me when you forgot where’s the place
and said that i talked much in the car.
You’re always beside me when i looked the books on the shelves in the bookstore.
You pulled my hand when i was too busy to see the game.
You said i better ask you to finish Master Degree than to say or do some romantic stuffs.
You stared at me, touched the nose part of my glasses and said that i have a snub nose.
But all of the things that you did, that you do, almost never hurt me.

You’re my sunshine after the rain
You’re my cure against my fear and my pain

The Things You Should Know If You Want To Steal My Attention

Judulnya bow, wahahahah manteb. Just for fun. This stuff can makes me know bout other sides of me and my clan :D.

Aries

Romance is something that no Aries can live without and the same goes for an Aries woman also. However, for her, not getting on without romance is not same as not being able to live without a man. In her heart, she will always be yearning for that someone special, thinking about him in the monsoon and that will be her idea of romance. She doesn’t need a real man for it. Aries female is the one who will do anything and everything herself, without needing any male help. One of her basic personality traits is total confidence in her abilities.

She has to lead, to be the first one to do anything. At times, her independence does not go well with the male ego. However, an Aries girl never wants a puppy for a lover or a husband. She seeks a man, but not the one who constantly chases her. The best way to woo her is to throw subtle hints, be a little detached and keep her wondering. Give her the impression that you can resist her charms and she will come rushing to you, to prove that she’s desirable. Aries women will never have to yearn for male attention.

They always get plenty of it, but inside they will be waiting for the one they cannot have. An Aries woman can survive even the toughest of circumstances alone and has the ability to come back even after the most gruesome tragedies. She can play the role of a female perfectly and, at the same time, can do everything that a man can do. If you have managed to subdue her aggressive drive, you will be treated to a woman who is full of optimism and has such faith in future that can uplift your mood also.

An Aries female does not like flattery. You should be sincere while complimenting her. Over-sweetness and too much closeness can make her run away, but she doesn’t want you to be too detached also. You’ll have to maintain that delicate balance and still keep the romance alive. Once she has committed to you, she will be extremely sentimental and very loyal. Don’t dominate an Aries female and don’t let her dominate you. Either of the extremes, she will not be able to tolerate. Give her reasons to be proud of you, but do not forget to praise her for her talent too. Her expectations are too high, but she will also give you double in return.

She is very possessive and love is something she can never share. She can be very jealous even at the slightest of suspicion. In case you have a female secretary, it is better to bid her good bye right now. If an Aries girl gets hurt, she will become as cold as the ice in your fridge and this behavior may last an entire lifetime. She is generous to the faults of her loved ones and it is better not to criticize them in front of her. On the other hand, if you are good to her, she will be extremely kind, tender, loyal and supportive.

You will get plenty of reasons to be jealous when you are with an Aries female, since she is more comfortable with men than women. However, don’t be suspicious of her, she would be really hurt. She is possessive, but she doesn’t like to be possessed. She wants her freedom and your complete trust. Remember, if she’s committed to you, you have no reasons to doubt her loyalty and sincerity. An Aries woman is much too truthful to be involved with two people at the same time. She will first break up the relationship that is not working.

She is extremely passionate and believes in forever-lasting relationships. Though, this leaves her disillusioned many a times. She will never play games with you and is incapable of deceit. An Aries girl is nothing if not simple, innocent and very emotional. Maximum chances are that she will continue her career even after marriage. She loves challenges and believes in miracles. Though it sounds a little freaky, but miracles do happen in her case. Just like a typical Aries, she never learns from her mistakes and is likely to fall in the same hole again.

For her love means sharing and that means sharing everything, right from her emotions and checkbook to your bank account. Always respect an Aries woman and never try to dampen her zeal, or she will be hurt. Though she tries to show that she is very strong, she is as innocent and as vulnerable as a baby. Be there to comfort her when she runs up to you after being disappointed with the world. If you stand up to her when she comes to you like this, you will never ever lose her. An Aries female will never forgive you if you fail to fight for her.

In return, she will always be there with you, even if she has to go against the whole world. She is not the one to feign illness, but if she is really ill, be there to care for her. She is quite extravagant and giving her the debit cards will mean an empty bank account. She will be a caring mother, who makes no unnecessary fuss and sparks children’s imagination. An Aries girl has a bad temper, but it will go away as quickly as it came and leave no grudges behind. She is a complete woman, who gets hurt easily and is totally innocent. Though she is a little impulsive and bossy, she will give you complete security, fight against the world for you and be yours forever!

Kudapan Menjelang Tidur

Fine. Emang ga bagus mengkonsumsi kudapan di atas jam 10 malem. Tapi aku terpaksa. Karna perut yang berasa laper (sebenernya bukan kudapan, lebih besar sedikit porsinya^^).

Jadi tadi malem si buruh pabrik ini baru pulang mendekati jam 22.00 WIB. Yang terlintas di kepala adalah burger. Maka di perjalanan pulang mampir dulu ke burger klenger, untuk membeli KCB (Klenger Cheese Burger). Isinya keju ma daging. Si saos ma mayonnaise nya uda meleleh keluar gitu ^^ *slurrrp*.

Eh pas uda mau pulang, si tebengan ngajakin mampir ke warung padang dulu, kelaperan juga dia. Tiba-tiba saja membayangkan enaknya nasi kikil ato usus *jedotin pala karna ga berhasil menahan nafsu*. Yah akhirnya terpaksa memboyong sebungkus nasi usus dengan porsi nasi 1/4.

Sampai di rumah buru-buru ganti baju dan nongkrong di depan laptop. Menghabiskan nasi usus dan burger sambil nonton Gossip Girl. Jam setengah sebelas malem. Fufufufufu…..

Books

Tadi malem iseng-iseng melihat rak bukuku yang mulai penuh. Sebenernya ga semuanya diisi buku sih ^^. Walo buku yang belum kebaca masih banyak, tapi tiap ke toko buku tetep aja ga bisa keukeuh nahan godaan buat beli lagi. Dan lagi.

Akhirnya aku kumpulin, mana aja buku yang belum kelar, belum ke baca, bahkan belum ke buka bungkusnya. Hihihi, sayang mau dibuka.

Yang masih diplastik ^^
Yang masih diplastik ^^
Yang  belum dan belum kelar dibaca @_@
Yang belum dan belum kelar dibaca @_@

Ini belum termasuk Conan. Dan kalopun ke toko buku lagi, aku uda punya list yang mau dibeli. Dan yang wajib punya:

Koleksi buku Dan Brown yang wajib punya
Koleksi buku Dan Brown yang wajib punya

Aku punya ke-4 buku Dan Brown sebelum The Lost Symbol, tapi beberapa masih dititipin di Malang. Di Gramedia harganya mendekati angka Rp 250.000,- untuk versi English dan hard cover. Maap ye, bukan ga mau beli, tapi aku masih nunggu versi Indonesianya. Uda mahal bow, masa mau pake terhambat bahasa juga saat menikmati thriller nya.

Fufufufu, harusnya kalo hari Minggu di kosan aja, bisa menghabiskan buku-buku ini dan meminimalisir pengeluaran untuk jajan ngemall. Happy weekend di kosan ^^.


Masak Cumi

Oke, emang judulnya ga banget. Maklumlah, aku kan pemula untuk urusan dapur. Jadi postingan soal masak memasak sebagai bahan bacaan kalo aku lupa bumbunya dan untuk melihat seberapa progres keakrabanku dengan dapur ^^.

Karna belum pernah masak cumi, dan kalo beli paket cumi+nasi+sayur di sekitar sini harganya mahal, 17500. Itu padahal cuminya cuma 5 potong kecil. Nah, pas belanja ke pasar, beli de 1 cumi yang agak besar. Murah lo, cuma 6000. Bisa dipake makan 2 kali versi irit.

Trus dibawa ke dapur dan dicampur dengan bahan-bahan ini:

1 buah bawang bombay
2 buah bawang putih
3 buah cabe rawit
garam (sesuai selera)
saus tiram (sesuai selera)
minyak goreng

Tuh kan bahannya aja cuma dikit ^^.

  1. Bersihkan dulu cuminya, potong tipis ato sesuai selera.
  2. Potong tipis bawang bombay, bawang putih dan cabe.
  3. Panaskan minyak goreng dan masukkan bawang dan cabe. Tumis sampai harum.
  4. Masukkan cumi yang udah dipotong tadi, tambahkan garam ga usah banyak-banyak.
  5. Trus kalo uda sekitar 4-5 menit gitu (kira-kira cumi udah mateng) tuangkan saus tiram untuk menambah rasa dari cumi tadi.
  6. Angkat dan siap dihidangkan ^^.

Cooking Level Up ^^

Setelah melewati sekian tahun sebagai asisten dapur ibuku, yang berperan untuk mengupas bumbu masak dan mencucinya, akirnya belakangan aku berusaha keras untuk menyaingi skill ibu di dapur *lebay* hihihi.

Sekarang jadi sering mengunjungi dapur, walo mata masi berat untuk dibuka ato badan udah kecapekan pulang kerja. Rasa-rasanya ketagihan pengen nyobain resep ini itu yang ngasal, trus ngerasain hasilnya enak apa ga. Kalo ga enak, besok pengen nyoba sampe enak, trus kalo enak jadi makin nagih buat nyobain eksperimen dengan bahan lainnya.

Nah, beberapa hari lalu ke pasar trus ngeliat ikan kembung seger-seger kok pengen beli. Jadinya belilah aku ikan kembung 1/4kg dan dapet 4 biji. Trus dibawa pulang buat disiksa dimasak. Dan ini bumbu-bumbunya:

5 butir bawang merah
2 butir bawang putih
2 buah cabe merah
5 buah cabe rawit (sesuai selera)
garam (menurut feeling)
gula (menurut feeling)
1 buah jeruk nipis
minyak goreng 3 sendok
air putih

Caranya:

  1. Bersihkan dulu ikannya, trus diperesin jeruk nipis dan dilumuri garam. Ya kata ibu si biar amisnya agak ilang. Eh jangan lupa bagian perut si ikan disayat miring biar bumbunya ntar meresep.
  2. Bumbu-bumbu tadi diulek mpe halus. Kalo cape ngulek, ya ga usah halus-halus amat lah, yang penting udah melunak.
  3. Panaskan minyak di wajan, trus masukkan bumbu yang udah dihaluskan tadi sampe harum.
  4. Masukkan ikan, dan tambahkan air putih paling ga sampe kepalanya ikan ikut kerendem biar mateng juga.
  5. Tambahkan gula sesuai selera.
  6. Karna ikan ini ga digoreng dulu, maka tutup aja wajannya (aka diungkep) sampe kuahnya mengental dan hampir habis.
  7. Tunggu sampe mateng ^^.

Enaak deh jadinya (paling ga menurutku). Ikan yang 4 ekor tadi berhasil bikin aku nambah-nambah mulu makannya hihih. Sayangnya ga dipoto ^^.
