I remember...The way you glanced at me, yes I remember
I remember...When we caught a shooting star, yes I remember
I remember.. All the things that we shared, and the promise we made, just you and I
I remember.. All the laughter we shared, all the wishes we made, upon the roof at dawn
Do you remember..?
When we were dancing in the rain in that december
And I remember..When my father thought you were a burglar
I remember.. All the things that we shared, and the promise we made, just you and I
I remember.. All the laughter we shared, all the wishes we made, upon the roof at dawn
I remember.. The way you read your books,
yes I remember
The way you tied your shoes,
yes I remember
The cake you loved the most,
yes I remember
The way you drank you coffee,
I remember
The way you glanced at me, yes I remember
When we caught a shooting star,
yes I remember
When we were dancing in the rain in that december
And the way you smile at me,
yes I remember

Nonton Empat Mata yang ada Aura Kasih
Tadi sore, secara tidak sengaja nonton empat mata (itu lho, acara di trans 7 yang isinya seputar masalah bibirnya tukul) bukannya ga suka seh tapi acaranya sering terlalu banyak menghina orang. BTW, tadi sore kebetulan nonton pas ada Aura Kasih disana( Cie... nih blog bahas Aura melulu neh jadinya) ga tau lagi ngapain. Ga jelas juga apa yang dibahas disana cuman tadi gambarnya ga terlalu jelas jadi dipindah (thats what a remote control for-thanks to someone who invent it).
Nah, pas pindah lagi. Aura pas nyanyi. Saat-saat yang ku tunggu Akhirnya Datang Juga( loh?). Sayang, pas udah mulai jadi kurang menarik. Beberapa adegan yang bikin ga menarik yaitu :
Nah, pas pindah lagi. Aura pas nyanyi. Saat-saat yang ku tunggu Akhirnya Datang Juga( loh?). Sayang, pas udah mulai jadi kurang menarik. Beberapa adegan yang bikin ga menarik yaitu :
- Aura nyanyinya ga sepenuh hati n cenderung ketinggalan beat. Entah ga prepare atau emang aslinya ga bisa nyanyi sampai berita ini diturunkan belum terjawab.
- Saat tukul bergoyang di deket pantat. Sumpeh, itu bikin ilfil buanget. Seronok dan ga pantes meski acara empat mata emang terkenal fulgar n seronok.
- Lagu yang dinyanyikan kurang bagus kalo buat acara di panggung sempit dan melihat antusiasme Aura saat nyanyi emang nggak banget lagunya. Bukan masalah lirik dan komposisi cuman masalahnya adalah acara yang diadakan dan tempat yang tersedia. Kalo konser sekalian malah bagus lagu itu.
- Udah deh kapan-kapan lagi yang ke-empat.
- Lagu yang dipilih mending nggak mari bercinta terus. Selain udah bosen juga suasana yang ga mendukung. Mending long distance atau yang beatnya lebih nyantai.
- Persiapan lebih matang sehingga ga ketinggalan beat.
- Kalo emang ga mau deket-deket ma tukul ya jangan mau diundang. Kasihan udah ga boleh pegang, pake digantiin adul lagi. Liat muka mupengnya tukul jadi ga tega deh....
- Dansanya ga sepenuh hati tuh, jadi ga enak liatnya.

Selalu Mengalah - Seventeen
jelaskan padaku isi hatimu
seberapa besar kau yakin padaku
untuk tetap bisa bertahan denganku
menjaga cinta ini
pertengkaran yang terjadi
seperti semua salahku
mengapa selalu aku yang mengalah
tak pernahkah kau berfikir
sedikit tentang hatiku
mengapa ku yang harus selalu mengalah
pantaskah hatiku masih bisa bersamamu
jelaskan padaku isi hatimu
seberapa besar kau yakin padaku
untuk tetap bisa bertahan denganku
menjaga cinta ini
mengapa selalu aku yang mengalah
tak pernahkah kau berfikir
sedikit tentang hatiku
mengapa ku yang harus selalu mengalah
pantaskah hatiku masih bisa bersamamu

Menghindari Kekerasan Pada Anak
Di era keterbukaan ini, perjuanagn untuk dapat memerdekakan setiap unsur kehidupan seolah mendapat jalannya masing-masing. Atas nama HAM, hak-hak Hewan, bahkan hak Anak. Demi mengakomodir hak anak inilah tulisan ini dibuat. Sudah wajar jika kita saat ini merubah cara pandang terhadap anak-anak kita. baik orang tua, guru, maupyun orang lain disekitar anak tumbuh. Meski dalam kenyataanya apa yang diharapkan masih jauh dari kenyataan, masalah itu adalah suatu yang berbeda dari pangkal permasalahannya.
Tidak hanya hak-hak atas pendidikan tapi yang harus dipikirkan adalah hak untuk mendapat kebebasan berpikir dan bertindak sebagai anak-anak. Kekerasan pada anak sekarang bukan lagi milik anak yang tumbuh dari keluarga miskin, anak jalanan, maupun anak dengan sejarah kekerasan maupun "ketidaknormalan" keluarga. Anak-anak dengan keluarga kaya (atau paling tidak mampu), maupun anak yang dibesarkan dalam keluarga "normal" seakan iri untuk mendapatkan pelajaran keras dalam kehidupan ini. Setidaknya intulah gejala yang dapat teramati sampai saat ini.
Masalah anak-anak bukan lagi tentang mencari uang untuk membantu keluarga, pemukulan hingga pemerkosaan. Masalah lebih terselubung ternyata tidak lebih ringan dari masalah-masalah tersebut. Atasnama pendidikan lebih baik para orangtua, beberapa guru maupun beberapa sekolah telah melampaui batas kewajaran dalam mendidik anak-anak mereka. Kewajiban untuk belajar tanpa istirahat, mengerjakan tugas tanpa lelah, tanpa bermain.
Saat sekolah-sekolah unggulan mengharuskan seleksi yang ketat, orang tua menginginkan persaingan. Saat keinginan tidak tercapai, anak bodoh menjadi julukan baru. Saat ini, bukan hanya anak yang benar-benar tidak mampu mengikuti pelajaran teman sekelasnya yang dibilang anak bodoh, tetapi anak-anak dengan prestasi membanggakan pun bisa jadi anak bodoh saat tidak bisa memenuhi ambisi orang tua untuk masuk sekolah unggulan.
Satu contoh yang paling mudah adalah ketika sekolah-sekolah unggulan mengharuskan calon murid untuk sudah dapat membaca dan menulis dengan lancar agar bisa masuk menjadi siswa. Selain itu mereka juga harus lulus psikotest dan bisa menghitung (mengurutkan angka, menjumlah, dan mengurang). (Untung saya sekolah SD 17 tahun yang lalu jadi tidak perlu menjalani penderitaan itu) Bimbingan belajar menjadi 'pelarian' orangtua yang ingin anaknya sekolah di tempat yang mereka anggap unggul.
Bagaimana tidak, hampir setiap hari anak-anak harus mengikuti berbagai macam les untuk mendukung usaha masuk ke sekolah unggulan. Memberikan sehari pada hari minggu sebagai ajang main Game anak sepuasnya. Memberikan motivasi negatif merupakan kelemahan terbesar para orangtua masa kini. Saat anak merasa lelah belajar, mereka dijanjikan sesuatu sebagai penyemangat bukannya memberikan waktu sejenak untuk mengistirahatkan otaknya. Tak ada yang bisa dilakukan seorang guru TK untuk menyiasati hal itu. Mereka diajarkan bahwa pengenalan hal-hal lain selain bermain terlalu dini akan merusak perkembangan otak anak dimasa depan. Sebaliknya, jika tidak diajarkan maka banyak anak yang pindah sekolah untuk mengejar sekolah unggulan.
Saatnya merubah paradigma berpikir dengan cara pandang 10-15 tahun kedepan saat anak-anak itu tumbuh dewasa. Apa yang lebih dibutuhkan untuk hidupnya. Kebingungan atau pemahaman akan hal-hal baru termasuk alamnya.
Mungkin perlu melihat pada tulisan Buruk Rupa TV, Kita Celaka sebuah tulisan yang bagus tentang anak-anak.

The Real Slim Shady - Eminem
lirik lagu The Real Slim Shady eminem
[Eminem]
May I have your attention please?
May I have your attention please?
Will the real Slim Shady please stand up?
I repeat, will the real Slim Shady please stand up?
We're gonna have a problem here..
Y'all act like you never seen a white person before
Jaws all on the floor like Pam, like Tommy just burst in the door
and started whoopin her ass worse than before
they first were divorce, throwin her over furniture (Ahh!)
It's the return of the... "Ah, wait, no way, you're kidding,
he didn't just say what I think he did, did he?"
And Dr. Dre said... nothing you idiots!
Dr. Dre's dead, he's locked in my basement! (Ha-ha!)
Feminist women love Eminem
[*vocal turntable: chigga chigga chigga*]
"Slim Shady, I'm sick of him
Look at him, walkin around grabbin his you-know-what
Flippin the you-know-who," "Yeah, but he's so cute though!"
Yeah, I probably got a couple of screws up in my head loose
But no worse, than what's goin on in your parents' bedrooms
Sometimes, I wanna get on TV and just let loose, but can't
but it's cool for Tom Green to hump a dead moose
"My bum is on your lips, my bum is on your lips"
And if I'm lucky, you might just give it a little kiss
And that's the message that we deliver to little kids
And expect them not to know what a woman's clitoris is
Of course they gonna know what intercourse is
By the time they hit fourth grade
They got the Discovery Channel don't they?
"We ain't nothing but mammals.." Well, some of us cannibals
who cut other people open like cantaloupes [SLURP]
But if we can hump dead animals and antelopes
then there's no reason that a man and another man can't elope
[*EWWW!*] But if you feel like I feel, I got the antidote
Women wave your pantyhose, sing the chorus and it goes
[Chorus: Eminem (repeat 2X)]
'Cause I'm Slim Shady, yes I'm the real Shady
All you other Slim Shadys are just imitating
So won't the real Slim Shady please stand up,
please stand up, please stand up?
[Eminem]
Will Smith don't gotta cuss in his raps to sell his records;
well I do, so fuck him and fuck you too!
You think I give a damn about a Grammy?
Half of you critics can't even stomach me, let alone stand me
"But Slim, what if you win, wouldn't it be weird?"
Why? So you guys could just lie to get me here?
So you can, sit me here next to Britney Spears?
Shit, Christina Aguilera better switch me chairs
so I can sit next to Carson Daly and Fred Durst
and hear 'em argue over who she gave head to first
You little bitch, put me on blast on MTV
"Yeah, he's cute, but I think he's married to Kim, hee-hee!"
I should download her audio on MP3
and show the whole world how you gave Eminem VD [AHHH!]
I'm sick of you little girl and boy groups, all you do is annoy me
so I have been sent here to destroy you [bzzzt]
And there's a million of us just like me
who cuss like me; who just don't give a fuck like me
who dress like me; walk, talk and act like me
and just might be the next best thing but not quite me!
[Chorus]
[Eminem]
I'm like a head trip to listen to, cause I'm only givin you
things you joke about with your friends inside your living room
The only difference is I got the balls to say it
in front of y'all and I don't gotta be false or sugarcoated at all
I just get on the mic and spit it
and whether you like to admit it [*ERR*] I just shit it
better than ninety percent of you rappers out can
Then you wonder how can kids eat up these albums like valiums
It's funny; cause at the rate I'm goin when I'm thirty
I'll be the only person in the nursin home flirting
Pinchin nurses asses when I'm jackin off with Jergens
And I'm jerkin but this whole bag of Viagra isn't working
And every single person is a Slim Shady lurkin
He could be workin at Burger King, spittin on your onion rings
[*HACH*] Or in the parkin lot, circling
Screaming "I don't give a fuck!"
with his windows down and his system up
So, will the real Shady please stand up?
And put one of those fingers on each hand up?
And be proud to be outta your mind and outta control
and one more time, loud as you can, how does it go?
[Chorus 4X]
[Eminem]
Ha ha
Guess there's a Slim Shady in all of us
Fuck it, let's all stand up
lagu pas jaman sma tapi gw suka banget deh.....

Like Toy Soldiers - Eminem
lirik lagu like toy soldiers eminem
Step by step, heart to heart, left right left
We all fall down...
[Chorus]
Step by step, heart to heart, left right left
We all fall down like toy soldiers
Bit by bit, torn apart, we never win
But the battle wages on for toy soldiers
[Verse 1]
I'm supposed to be the soldier who never blows his composure
Even though I hold the weight of the whole world on my shoulders
I ain't never supposed to show it, my crew ain't supposed to know it
Even if it means goin' toe to toe with a Benzino it don't matter
I'd never drag them in battles that I can handle unless I absolutely have to
I'm supposed to set an example
I need to be the leader, my crew looks for me to guide 'em
If some shit ever does pop off, I'm supposed to be beside 'em
That Ja shit I tried to squash it, it was too late to stop it
There's a certain line you just don't cross and he crossed it
I heard him say Hailie's name on a song and I just lost it
It was crazy, this shit went way beyond some Jay-z and Nas shit
And even though the battle was won, I feel like we lost it
I spent too much energy on it, honestly I'm exhausted
And I'm so caught in it I almost feel I'm the one who caused it
This ain't what I'm in hip-hop for, it's not why I got in it
That was never my object for someone to get killed
Why would I wanna destroy something I help build
It wasn't my intentions, my intentions was good
I went through my whole career without ever mentionin' Suge
And that was just out of respect for not runnin' my mouth
And talkin' about something that I knew nothing about
Plus Dre told me stay out, this just wasn't my beef
So I did, I just fell back, watched and gritted my teeth
While he's all over t.v. down talkin' a man who literally saved my life
Like fuck it i understand this is business
And this shit just isn't none of my business
But still knowin' this shit could pop off at any minute cause
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
There used to be a time when you could just say a rhyme
And wouldn't have to worry about one of your people dyin'
But now it's elevated cause once you put someone's kids in it
The shit gets escalated, it ain't just words no more is it?
It's a different ball game, callin' names and you ain't just rappin'
We actually tried to stop the 50 and Ja beef from happenin'
Me and Dre had sat with him, kicked it and had a chat with him
And asked him not to start it he wasn't gonna go after him
Until Ja started yappin' in magazines how we stabbed him
Fuck it 50 smash 'em, mash 'em and let him have it
Meanwhile my attention is pullin' in other directions
Some receptionist at The Source who answers phones at his desk
Has an erection for me and thinks that I'll be his resurrection
Tries to blow the dust off his mic and make a new record
But now he's fucked the game up cause one of the ways I came up
Was through that publication the same one that made me famous
Now the owner of it has got a grudge against me for nothin'
Well fuck it, that motherfucker can get it too, fuck him then
But I'm so busy being pissed off I don't stop to think
That we just inherited 50's beef with Murder Inc.
And he's inherited mine which is fine ain't like either of us mind
We still have soldiers that's on the front line
That's willing to die for us as soon as we give the orders
Never to extort us, strictly to show they support us
We'll maybe shout 'em out in a rap or up in a chorus
To show them we love 'em back and let 'em know how important it is
To have Runyan Avenue, soldiers up in our corners
Their loyalty to us is worth more than any award is
But I ain't tryna have none of my people hurt and murdered
It ain't worth it, I can't think of a perfecter way to word it
Then to just say that I love ya'll too much to see the verdict
I'll walk away from it all before I let it go any further
But don't get it twisted, it's not a plea that I'm coppin'
I'm just willin' to be the bigger man
If ya'll can quit poppin' off at the jaws, well then I can
Cause frankly I'm sick of talkin'
I'm not gonna let someone else's coffin rest on my conscience cause
[Chorus]
Step by step, heart to heart, left right left
We all fall down...
[Chorus]
Step by step, heart to heart, left right left
We all fall down like toy soldiers
Bit by bit, torn apart, we never win
But the battle wages on for toy soldiers
[Verse 1]

Mockingbirds - Eminem
Lirik lagu mockingbirds eminem
Yeah
I know sometimes things may not always make sense to you right now
But hey, what daddy always tell you?
Straighten up little soldier
Stiffen up that upper lip
What you crying about?
You got me
Hailie I know you miss your mom and I know you miss your dad
Well I'm gone but I'm trying to give you the life that I never had
I can see you're sad, even when you smile, even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes, deep inside you want to cry
Cause you're scared, I ain't there?
Daddy's with you in your prayers
No more crying, wipe them tears
Daddy's here, no more nightmares
We gon' pull together through it, we gon' do it
Laney uncles crazy, ain't he?
Yeah but he loves you girl and you better know it
We're all we got in this world
When it spins, when it swirls
When it whirls, when it twirls
Two little beautiful girls
Lookin' puzzled, in a daze
I know it's confusing you
Daddy's always on the move, mamma's always on the news
I try to keep you sheltered from it but somehow it seems
The harder that I try to do that, the more it backfires on me
All the things growing up his daddy that he had to see
Daddy don't want you to see but you see just as much as he did
We did not plan it to be this way, your mother and me
But things have gotten so bad between us
I don't see us ever being together ever again
Like we used to be when we was teenagers
But then of course everything always happens for a reason
I guess it was never meant to be
But it's just something we have no control over and that's what destiny is
But no more worries, rest your head and go to sleep
Maybe one day we'll wake up and this will all just be a dream
[Chorus]
Now hush little baby, don't you cry
Everything's gonna be alright
Stiffen that upper lip up little lady, I told ya
Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
We feel how we feel inside
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
But I promise momma's gon' be alright
It's funny
I remember back one year when daddy had no money
Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents up
And stuck 'em under the tree and said some of 'em were from me
Cause daddy couldn't buy 'em
I'll never forget that Christmas I sat up the whole night crying
Cause daddy felt like a bum, see daddy had a job
But his job was to keep the food on the table for you and mom
And at the time every house that we lived in
Either kept getting broken into and robbed
Or shot up on the block and your mom was saving money for you in a jar
Tryna start a piggy bank for you so you could go to college
Almost had a thousand dollars till someone broke in and stole it
And I know it hurt so bad it broke your momma's heart
And it seemed like everything was just startin' to fall apart
Mom and dad was arguin' a lot so momma moved back
On the Chalmers in the flat one bedroom apartment
And dad moved back to the other side of 8 Mile on Novara
And that's when daddy went to California with his CD and met Dr. Dre
And flew you and momma out to see me
But daddy had to work, you and momma had to leave me
Then you started seeing daddy on the T.V. and momma didn't like it
And you and Laney were to young to understand it
Papa was a rollin' stone, momma developed a habit
And it all happened too fast for either one of us to grab it
I'm just sorry you were there and had to witness it first hand
Cause all I ever wanted to do was just make you proud
Now I'm sitting in this empty house, just reminiscing
Lookin' at your baby pictures, it just trips me out
To see how much you both have grown, it's almost like you're sisters now
Wow, guess you pretty much are and daddy's still here
Laney I'm talkin' to you too, daddy's still here
I like the sound of that, yeah
It's got a ring to it don't it?
Shh, momma's only gone for the moment
[Chorus]
And if you ask me too
Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird
I'mma give you the world
I'mma buy a diamond ring for you
I'mma sing for you
I'll do anything for you to see you smile
And if that mockingbird don't sing and that ring don't shine
I'mma break that birdies neck
I'll go back to the jeweler who sold it to ya
And make him eat every carat don't fuck with dad (haha)
Yeah
I know sometimes things may not always make sense to you right now
But hey, what daddy always tell you?
Straighten up little soldier
Stiffen up that upper lip
What you crying about?
You got me
Hailie I know you miss your mom and I know you miss your dad
Well I'm gone but I'm trying to give you the life that I never had
I can see you're sad, even when you smile, even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes, deep inside you want to cry
Cause you're scared, I ain't there?
Daddy's with you in your prayers
No more crying, wipe them tears
Daddy's here, no more nightmares
We gon' pull together through it, we gon' do it
Laney uncles crazy, ain't he?
Yeah but he loves you girl and you better know it
We're all we got in this world
When it spins, when it swirls
When it whirls, when it twirls
Two little beautiful girls
Lookin' puzzled, in a daze
I know it's confusing you
Daddy's always on the move, mamma's always on the news
I try to keep you sheltered from it but somehow it seems
The harder that I try to do that, the more it backfires on me
All the things growing up his daddy that he had to see
Daddy don't want you to see but you see just as much as he did
We did not plan it to be this way, your mother and me
But things have gotten so bad between us
I don't see us ever being together ever again
Like we used to be when we was teenagers
But then of course everything always happens for a reason
I guess it was never meant to be
But it's just something we have no control over and that's what destiny is
But no more worries, rest your head and go to sleep
Maybe one day we'll wake up and this will all just be a dream
[Chorus]
Now hush little baby, don't you cry
Everything's gonna be alright
Stiffen that upper lip up little lady, I told ya
Daddy's here to hold ya through the night
I know mommy's not here right now and we don't know why
We feel how we feel inside
It may seem a little crazy, pretty baby
But I promise momma's gon' be alright
It's funny
I remember back one year when daddy had no money
Mommy wrapped the Christmas presents up
And stuck 'em under the tree and said some of 'em were from me
Cause daddy couldn't buy 'em
I'll never forget that Christmas I sat up the whole night crying
Cause daddy felt like a bum, see daddy had a job
But his job was to keep the food on the table for you and mom
And at the time every house that we lived in
Either kept getting broken into and robbed
Or shot up on the block and your mom was saving money for you in a jar
Tryna start a piggy bank for you so you could go to college
Almost had a thousand dollars till someone broke in and stole it
And I know it hurt so bad it broke your momma's heart
And it seemed like everything was just startin' to fall apart
