Review : Watashi wo Hanasanaide

「人生が短くてひとつだけである。だから、全力で大事にしてください。」とそう教えてくれた。

This story tell me that life is too sort and we only have one so we need to treasure it with all of our strength. We need to fight for it no matter how unfair our destiny treat us.

Everybody come and go is the certain things. For those who left behind and alone don't give up with your life. Be sure that one day there's a chance that we will meet again.

No matter how many times we get. No matter in what condition we are born. It's okay to dream. Whether it will come true or not, dream is just a dream.

Though with those dream we sometimes become more selfish and want to get more. Though with those dreams we sometimes forget that not all our dreams can come true. We forget to see what we got and become angry with our destiny. We don't even realize that what we dream for the most is may not be the one which we need the most.

To be meet someone we love is enough. To be with someone we love is more than enough. To be loved with someone we love is... a miracle.

Even if we only have a week, a day... even after that we will disappear... even after that we can't see each other forever...

The memories remain with our heart, with his heart, with her heart. As long as that one still remember. As long as that one give his tears for me. That is more than enough.

Until the end, please never let me go. Hold my hand. Then hold my love.

That is the best way to accept our end.

With pride i'll whisper to the wind that i have someone who will love me forever even we are separated away~

well, this is just my impression. i don't even think it's a review after all.

But over all even it have no happy ending story but they can accept their end with no regret.

「生まれてきたよかった」って。そして「生まれてきたありがとう」って。

それはとてもとても素敵な言葉です。

どうして生まれてきた分からなくてもいいんです。そもそもみな知らないから。

私たちわ生きて、死んで。こんなの決まる終わりにずっと頑張って。

だから人生は大事な宝物です。

Season of Love

I feel alone, I feel the wind leave me in this autumn,

The love you gave me in summer has falling as the leaves of sakura trees.

Can i live through the winter without you as my sun...

Will i meet the warm spring healing my soul and face my new hope in another summer...

Cycling In Japan

Tonight i wanna talk about cycling. Well, in my point of view, cycling is one of fun ways of exercising to keep our health fit. By cycling you can feel the breeze of the wind against your face while enjoying the scenery.

Unfortunately my town is one of unfriendly places to cycling. There are too many transportation on the road. Too many inpatient drivers. And there is no cycling trail. Though sometimes i see some people ride bicycle on the road, i don't really think it's safe.

But once of every week there is a day called "car-free-day". It's a day which should be no transportation machine on the road. It is. But in fact it's only for 3 hours long and in a (i-can-say-it) short area of the road.

My friend told me that sometimes he cycling back home from kitakyusu to tokushima (if i'm not wrong). It's about 100 km away... Wow... right? If that's me, i'll choose ride shinkansen instead... lol. But to know that he can ride a bicycle that far, there should be lots of comfortable and safe tracks for cycling. I wish i can cycling under the sakura season.. it could be paradise.

By the way i just knew that there are strict rules regarding ride a bicycle in japan such as mention in a site named survivingnjapan, the rules are:

• Riding while carrying an umbrella, listening to an iPod, or talking on the phone are prohibited
• All bikes are required to have a bell and a headlamp (if riding at night) 
• It is illegal to ride tandem bicycle (except in Nagano) 
• Also illegal riding with a passenger (with the exception of a child below the age of six).
• A cyclist may carry one child under the age of six in a designated child seat 
• Children under the age of 13 years must wear a bike helmet 
• Bicycles must be registered in the owner’s name at the prefectural police department
• and so on...

Just remember if you broke one the the rules above you could have to pay  ¥500,000 fine as the penalty. But do not worry, if you are lucky enough you won't meet a strict police. In reality even most of the police often ignored some of those rules above such as listening to music or riding with a passenger. But still you should be more careful. Maybe you need a guide. It could be a great idea if you have couch surfing friends. It can lower your budget too.

Hmmm... that's all i can share tonight... to think that it's a brief share i don't know if that's help you gain more knowledge... lol, still... thanks for reading and if you have more information regarding this topic, i'm waiting for your comment.

Thank you. good night. :3

Family Issues (1) : Respect

Pernah ga sih saudara/saudari kamu bilang "pinjem dulu ya" atau "ambil dulu ya" padahal kalau sama orang asing yang bukan keluarga mereka langsung "membeli". Atau pernah ga sih keluarga kamu minta tarif jasa yang di bawah tarif standar cuma karena ikatan saudara?

Kebiasaan seperti itu memang kadang atau mungkin malah sering terjadi di beberapa keluarga. Kalau menurut saya pribadi hal seperti ini membuat saya merasa kurang dihargai sebagai keluarga... meskipun dengan alasan "kita kan keluarga" mereka melakukan hal seperti itu.

Ikatan keluarga bukan berarti alasan untuk bisa berlaku sewenang-wenang kan. Kita juga harus mengerti situasi dan kondisi. Misal, kalau meminjam atau "mengkredit" barang dengan keluarga beberapa orang sering mengundur-undur pembayaran/pengembalian. Alasannya sederhana... "Kan kita keluarga. Gampang. Nanti saya ke rumah."

Tapi bayangin kalau anda atau keluarga anda meminjam/kredit ke orang/perusahaan asing. Tentu akan lebih tepat waktu dan disiplin dalam pembayaran/pengembalian kan. Alasannya sederhana "image".

Dari hal tersebut saya pribadi bisa mengambil kesimpulan bahwa... "image mereka di depan umum itu lebih penting dari image mereka di dalam keluarga. Dan hal itu yang menjadi alasan mereka lebih respect terhadap orang asing daripada keluarga."

Kadang kita lupa bahwa keluargalah yang ada disaat kita jatuh atau butuh pertolongan. Tapi kita sering kali meremehkan dan melupakan hal itu. Kita lebih mementingkan "image" di depan orang yang bahkan ga kita kenal.

Saya sendiri ga yakin ini berhubungan sama kebudayaan atau kebiasaan atau memang cuma terjadi karena keegoisan. Tapi saya harap pembaca bisa lebih menghargai keluarga daripada orang lain yang mungkin ga anda kenal sebelumnya,

Bicara soal tarif jasa... saya punya pengalaman tersendiri. Kadang saya menyadari bahwa saya memberi tarif kecil bukan berarti saya bisa dipekerjakan secara semena-mena. Sekarang kan sudah bukan jaman kerja rodi atau romusha. Tapi keluarga saya ga mengerti tentang hal itu. Mereka lebih mementingkan tarif yang "kecil" itu daripada usaha yang telah saya lakukan. Apapun hasilnya,

Disaat mereka memberi tarif lebih besar terhadap orang asing yang bahkan pekerjaannya tidak sebanyak pekerjaan yang telah saya lakukan, saya merasa kecewa bukan main karena merasa posisi saya bahkan lebih rendah daripada orang asing tersebut. Ini bukan hanya masalah uang tapi juga pengertian dan pencapaian.

Ketika mereka bilang "kan biasanya juga tarifnya segini..." saya tidak merasa seperti keluarga tapi lebih ke "slave". Ini sih bukan keluarga tapi budak veteran... Apa asumsi itu salah?

Oleh karena itu kadang kita juga harus keras dalam menentukan tarif dan tegas dalam urusan bisnis. Ikatan keluarga bukan berarti ikatan volunteer. Biar bagaimana pun dunia memang tempat yang kejam bahkan di antara ikatan darah.

Review : Reply 1998

Today i wanna share about one wonderful K-Drama, Reply 1998. Some of you might have known the series of this drama. Begin in 2012, first season named Reply 1997, continued in 2013, second season Reply 1997, and the last one is aired last year (2015), Reply 1998.

Actually i only watched 2 of them. Reply 1997 and Reply 1998. Starting from a recommendation of a friend i watched Reply 1997. I love it. But then Reply 1998 aired last year... I love it more!

At first i don't really interested in watching. I don't even know who play the roles?? I've just seen two of them (Sun Wo and Taek). Well, i'm not a crazy drama fan but i've seen them in a movie, Coin Locker Girl. I don't know why i watched that movie. I thought it was about some sci-fi or fantasy... Why wouldn't i read the review!! Sun Wo or Gyung Pyo  oppa play antagonist role. ahh, he was so badly bad boy. And Taek or Bo Gum oppa play as a son who his father rent money from a money-lenders. At almost the end they cut his throat... ohh i couldn't see it anymore. I don't even want to imagine that.

Ok, back to the main topic. Reply 1998 tells about four family that lives in the same neighborhood. They were very close to each other. In the first episode Duk son adult-role, Lee Mi Yeon introduced the others player. Dong Ryong (Lee Dong-Hwi), the complex counselor, Jung Pal (Ryoo Joon Yeol), the not-fully a human yet, Taek (Park Bo Gum), the baduk best player but idiot at other things, and Duk Sun (Hyeri) herself when she was younger, with wavy wispy bangs.

They were so close. They shared their foods (that was the funny part) one to another. And the first episode also tells about how hard being the second of three child. The first child, Sung Bora (Ryoo Hye Yeong) gets everything, she's the lead on their family. The last child, No Eul (Choi Sung Won) get spoiled because he's the last child.

Overall i think this drama share a lot of moral lesson in each episode. And the stories is packed amazingly interesting. It will captivate you to it's spell! Or it's just me... Anyway it was a wonderful story. There are 3 couple were made until the end. Who will be Duk Son's mate??? Sun Woo? Jung Pal? Taek? Dong... Okay, let's eliminate him... lol (sorry).

Along the movie there were a lot of daily life true stories that you might undergo. Just like when Dong Ryong mad at his parents and went away from home... or Jung Pal parents who suddenly pissed of because unknown reason... or have you ever misunderstood your guy treated you nicely though the one he love is not you?? or the most common... who have been a secret lover or one side lover raise your hand!!! All of them are packed in just one package. Reply 1998. (I feel like advertising here...).

Yeah there were a lot of things they have been through... days to years, the time keep flowing like the rain. When they old enough to work, each family move out one by one... this was the saddest part... i feel like crying... when they all moved the place be lonely and abandoned... there's nothing but memories left there... after all that they've been through together... now it was just empty houses.

"I regret i can't say goodbye for the last time..." Duk Sun said. The empty houses were showed one to another... until finally she arrive in Taek's room. There were Sun Woo, Dong Ryong, Jung Pal, and of course, Taek in that room. They were  watching movies just like they usually did back then. They stared at her and asked"Why you just came now?" 

"Where have you been?" "Hurry come in."

Duk Sun reply while crying "Why are you here?"

Then Jung Pal said "Of course we are here. Where should we be then? Come in hurry! We want to see a movie we just borrowed."

Sun Woo asked too, "Why are you crying? You fight with your sister again?"

Duk Sun shook her head.

"We will watch it now." Dong Ryong said.

"Come in." Taek gave her a smile.. (oh my lord...)

Then the young Duk Sun joined them watching the movie... it repeated again when their mother called for dinner... The End...

Did i tell it nicely? Lol. I think i mix up some words there... Oh i don't know. 난 몰라! Lol.

Anyway the drama was so funny. It can makes me laugh and laugh and laugh again. I've seen this for dozens of times and still not feel bored. Lol. Very Recommended... Beside DOTS of course.
