You looked at me with certainty
I couldn't look away
Took your jacket off like
Like you were here to stay
Chasin’ your pretty thoughts
And your plastic love
There goes my mind
Let it go
You’re that lace trimmed danger
One day you’ll be the face of a stranger
I couldn't look away
Chasin’ your pretty thoughts
You’re mine
You’re sinking’ in my soul
Chasin’ your pretty thoughts
In intervals you’re sinkin’ in
You’re sinkin’ in my soul
Thought to myself:
“Don’t, don’t you lose control”
Started to undress you, with my wandering eyes
Told myself you’d be gone by sunrise
‘cause you’re that lace trimmed danger
One day you’ll be the face of a stranger
SHIT. IT'S JUST. TOO. GOOD.
Desember,
kamu sudah pergi,
sudah aku lupakan,
sudah aku ikhlaskan;
lantas dalam rangka apa
percikanmu kembali lagi,
menyapa lagi,
mengirim puisi-puisi tengah malam itu lagi,
menghadirkan kupu itu lagi,
menyanyikan lagu itu lagi
menyandungkan kenangan itu lagi?
Desember,
tak lama lagi
kamu akan pergi
...lagi, kan?
It was in 2010/2011. Akhir tahun waktu itu, aku bareng keluarga keliling Jawa & Bali selama 2 minggu penuh kalau nggak salah, lewat perjalanan darat. Yes, it sounds crazy & tiring (but believe me, rasanya jauh lebih c a p e k dari kedengerannya). Tujuan awal kita asalnya ke Bali. But it turned out we ran out of tickets (since it was holiday season) dan kita nggak mau ngejedog aja di rumah gabut! Jadinya kita mutusin buat ke keliling Jawa & Bali. Kita belom tau first stop kita bakal dimana sampai kita mulai jalan.
First stop kita ada di Slawi, 'kampung halaman' keluarga aku tiap lebaran. We picked up our cousin to join us. Nggak lupa tradisi makan sate tiap ke sana. We really can't resist to eat sate Bu Tomo because it is simply the best in the world :' lebay? Iya. Tapi emang faktanya seenak i t u. Hfff di Bandung gak ada sate yang seenak itu.
Second stop. Semarang. Mampir ke rumah sodara, wisata kuliner, nyobain tahu petis, ke lawang sewu, makan makan makan dan makaaan...
Third stop. Malang! Nggak ketinggalan nyicipin Bromo dan segala perintilannya. Wisata kulinernya juga gak ketinggalan. Rawon setan :)
Fourth stop. Blitar. Nggak tau mo ngapain. Yang jelas waktu itu kesana mampir ke makam Soekarno.
Fifth stop. Bali, walaupun sebelumnya sempet ngelintasin Banyuwangi dan lain lain. Sempet enek sama pecel sih (mostly orang Jawa Timur kulinernya pecel). Yaaa keliling keliling Bali setelahnya. From one beach to another. From beach to mountain.
Sixth stop. Jogja! From one temple to another. From Borobudur to Prambanan. From Kraton to Malioboro. Udah gitu makan, makan, dan makaaan...
Seventh stop. Home.
It took 1-2 weeks for us to explore those places. Sampe kadang punggung pegel duduk berjam jam di mobil, capek ketawa gara gara ngobrol, capek komentarin orang di jalan, capek berantem gara gara hal sepele. Overall, bisa dibilang itu liburan terfavorit. Karenaaa... ya nggak ada karena. Pokoknya favorit. Because i was happy, and so does everyone.
Hola! Udah lumayan lama juga ya nggak ngepost di blog? Hectic banget akhir akhir ini, sampe ngerasa butuh lebih dari 24 jam dalam sehari. That maybe sounds sok sibuk abis hoho tapi emang bener! I even consume redbull or caffein sometimes.. which is jenis konsumsi yang bukan 'aku' banget kecuali terpaksa, dan waktu luang tuh kerasa seberharga itu buat bisa dipake tidur.
Padahal sibuk main roller coaster tycoon yang setelah sekian lama diinstall lagi.
But here i am, nulis utang 52 week challenge. I guess i didn't play the challenge right ya? Hehe.. it supposed to be posted every week, bukan beberapa post dalam satu waktu. Ah gapapalah. Better late than never.
So. These are the top 5 places i'd KILL to visit.
1. Serengeti National Park, Tanzania
When i told this to my friend, all of them were like "What? Tanzania.. as in Africa?" HAHA yaiyalah dodol Tanzania mana lagi kalo bukan di benua Afrika! Weird, huh? Commonly people wants to go to Paris or London or the other 'hip' places but to me.. that would be South African's savanas i'd like to kill for. Secara selama ini cuma nonton kehidupan-kehidupan binatang di natgeo doang.. jadi pengen banget ke Afrika sana! Kebayang gak sih gimana rasanya safari beneran di tengah savana yang luas mampus trus ngeliat ribuan zebra nyebrang di depan mata, ato liat singa gelantungan di pohon, liat wildebeest asli, atau gazelle.. HUHU MAU MAK. Apalagi kalo sunset! HUHU seriously, people, that's way more exotic than Paris. Adem banget kayaknya kalo bisa glamping di sana. Away from the crowds. No signal. Just you and me. Yes, i'm looking at you, dear zebras (oh and the lions, the giraffes, the elephants, and the other animals). Long before Taylor Swift's Wildest Dream video released, i've imagined them already in my head. Ngeliat Taylor Swift pake the yellow stunning dress in my kind of dream situation & dream place, i was like speechless :')
Well, impian ini diperparah sama pengalaman liburan Putri Tanjung safari di Afrika bareng keluarga yang dia ceritain di Gogirl! plus ceritanya Trinity di novel The Naked Travelernya! Seri novel yang keberapa, aku lupa. Entah di Naked Traveler 2 atau 4. She mentioned about all the stuffs i had been imagine and it made me even crazier for wanting to visit Africa. Tunggu aku, ze(bro)! Tunggu aku, Tanzania! :')
2. Petra, Jordan
Pernah nonton Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (yang kedua)? Inget scene waktu mereka nemu Tomb of the Primes di balik dinding bangunan bersejarah yang supergede? Yep, that prehistoric archeological building is Petra, as in Jordan. Again, Trinity bilang waktu dia kesana, Petra itu warnanya dusty-pink/rosy, makanya disebut pink city. But as we can see, foto-foto yang aku dapet di google nggak terlalu ngerefleksiin warna pinknya. But, still.. everytime i see it, i always speak to myself "You have to be there, someday Cha! You n e e d to be there and witness the awesomeness."
5. Japan
