September 30th 2003; Carousel.

OLAAAAAA!
KONNICHIWAAAAAA!
HELLOOO!

It's been a while huh I haven't post anything in my bloggy, nyaah I've been quite busy doing nothing - -' haha ga juga sih. Anyhooooow... I'm gonna share some of songs that has been very memorable for me because these songs reminds me of people that has been very important to my life. Yaa bisa diblg gw lg rada mau bernostalgia sedikit lah :p

Okay, first song is Carousel by Blink-182.

I talk to you every now and then
I never felt so alone again
I stop to think at a wishing well
My thoughts send me on a carousel

Here I am standing on my own
Not a motion from the telephone
I know not a reason why
Solitudes a reason to die

Just you wait and see
As school life is a
It is a woken dream
Aren't you feeling alone?

I guess its just another
I guess its just another
I guess its just another night alone

Now as I walk down the street
I need a job just to sleep in sheets
Buying food every once in a while
But not enough to purchase a smile

A tank of gas is a treasure to me
I know now that nothing is free
I talk to you every now and then
I never felt so alone again

Just you wait and see
As school life is a
It is a woken dream
Aren't you feeling alone?

I guess its just another
I guess its just another
I guess its just another night alone

SO, kenapa gw mulai dengan lagu ini? Karena gatau. Haha, serius gatau. Ide mau nulis soal lirik2 and share my stories with you guys jg sbetulnya random. Tadi sore pas gw habis mandi, tb2 gw kepengen aja and gatau kenapa the first song yg muncul ya lagu ini.

Lagu ini maybe the start of something new that I never thought I would feel at least not at that time, no. Jadi, ceritanya... Di sekolah lama gw dulu, ada this dude that has been crushing me from like.... dr wkt gw pertama kali ngecek my new school. Wkt itu gw ga liat muka dia kyk apa, soalnya gw udah keburu masuk ke mobil. It was 2003. Gw masih 6 SD and my parents took me to see my new school buat SMP di daerah Kemang gitu. Jadi wkt gw habis muter2 that school, gw kan cabut dong dr situ tp tb2 there's this girl gitu, dia anaknya temen nyokap gw. She went to school there, makanya gw dipindah di situ gr2 tmn nyokap gw nawarin soal that school. Nah, wkt kt baru mau kluar the gate tb2 dia manggil "Tante!" trus nyokap and dia lngsg lah berbincang2 basa basi gitu, nah disitulah where it all began.

So one day - hbs visit that school -, wkt gw lg jalan sm nyokap gw, di sebuah mall tb2 gw dpt sms minta kenalan gitu. Gw kira kan orang iseng jadi gw ladenin aja, wkt gw tanya nama dia I thought he was a girl! HAHA, lmao! Wkt gw blg gitu dia blg "ngga, I'm a guy", hbs namanya gw kira nama cewe. HAHA sumpah gw rada ga enak. So anyway, dia tenyata tau nomer hp gw dari anaknya temen nyokap gw and he was asking me whether gw mau ato ngga dateng ke ultah dia di 21 PS. Gw blg mau, trus yaudah we meet up. Untung bgt wkt itu gw ngajak temen SD gw, jadi gw ga ngerasa sendiri. BAYANGIN DONG, gw msh SD and anak2 di situ udah pada SMP and SMA, gw ngrasa anak kecil banget!

Okay, so hbs nonton we went to a restaurant gtu gw lupa namanya apa. Nah, di sini hal terkocak dalam hidup gw (pada saat itu) terjadi. So, ceritanya gini... Karena gw ngerasa ga PD bgt di situ, gw pengen bgt cpt2 pulang trus yaudah gw blg kan ke temen gw untuk pamit ke mereka, tp dia gamau, malahan dia nyuruh gw. Gw jg gamau. Jadi berdebatlah kita.

P: Mel, km aja yg blg. (gw lupa wkt itu gw pake "gw-elo" ato "aku-km", lets just assume gw pake "aku-km")
M: gamau ah, km aja yg blg dong. aku g enak.
P: Yee, sama aku jg g enak. Kan km yg kenal mereka and km yg diundang.
M: Iya sih, cman aku ga kenal2 amat.

Diskusinya pretty much like that doang, but the real funny part baru bakal dimulai pada saat gw udah mulai panik karena anak2 yg lain udah pada decide utk makan di situ sedangkan gw sama sekali udah gada niatan jalan bareng mreka. ALHASIL... Gw lari super kenceng aja gitu pdhal PS lg rame bgt wkt itu. Temen gw smpet panik jg trus bingung mau ngapain, tp akhirnya dia ngikutin gw lari. HAHA!!! SUMPAH, itu hal terkocak wkt saat itu. Gw brasa hbs nyuri sesuatu gtu. Pas di escalator, mreka mulai nyariin kt berdua, gw - yg wkt itu kecil bgt - akhirnya nunduk gitu jongkok, untung bgt org2 di depan gw udah dewasa jd rada2 ketutupan cman gue yakin anak2 yg lain liat kt dmn, HAHA.

Btw, enough of that part... lets continue about the history of the song.

Ya, pokoknya that guy tetep aja nyoba deketin gw and stuffs and mau gamau gue harus ladenin soalnya gw ga bisa nolak. Habisnya, gw ga enak dia udah kls 10 gitu and gw masih kls 7, jd gw g enak aja. Akhirnya yaudah we keep on texting and stuffs, and klo di sekolah kadang2 dia nyamperin gw di kelas tp gw malu bgt sumpah, soalnya we were so UGLEY back then. Masih yg rambut dibelah tengah and stuffs, PLUS anak2 1 skolah (skolah gw wkt itu muridnya dikiiiiit bgt2x!!) tuh kenal sm the dude, cause he's a supel-populer kind of guy jd everytime we were together org2 kyk "CIE CIE". Duh, sumpah itu ga enak & malu2in bgt - -'

Trus one day, wkt anaknya temen nyokap gw nginep di rumah gw, kebetulan ternyata itu cowok rumahnya deket PARAH sm rumah gw. Jadi dia tinggal di apartement gitu, and everytime klo gw mau pulang gw bakalan lewatin apartement dia. So yeah, anyway wkt anak temen nyokap nginep tb2 dia diajakin gitu untuk ke apartement si cowok, gw sih stulnya gamau makanya wkt udah smpe di depan gerbang apartement gw kyk minta2 pulang tp temen gw maksa (kyknya dia emg bener2 niat nyomblangin - -') gw utk ikut. Yaudah, akhirnya kt bertamulah di apartement dia. Trus ternyata ada this another dude yg honestly, gw udah suka sm dia from the first time I saw him di PS wkt ultahnya si cowok yg ngedeketin gw (Yaa, bs diblg.. either like or love at first sight). Jadi kt berempat gitu. Secara ada bokap si cowok yg suka sm gw, akhirnya kt ke kamarnya si cowok buat main. Gw and temen gw itu asik2 ngeliatin Guiness World book, sdgkan si gebetan gw asik main game boy and the dude that were crushing me asik main bass. Wkt gw lg asik2 baca the book, dia tiba2 nyuruh gw untuk ngeliat dia main bass. AAAAAAAAAANNNNNNDDDD.... guess dia main apa? Yep! CAROUSEL : )

Dia mainin the solo part in the beginning of the song for meeeeeeee! ;p nyahahah. Wkt itu sih gw ga suka sm skali sm band2 tipe Blink-182 and stuffs, cman kyknya dia menyebarkan virus itu ke gue. Gw baru sadar gw suka sm Blink, wkt dia main ke rumah gw and wkt lg nonton TV kebetulan lg ada video clip Blink di TV and dia nyuruh gw utk liat. Wkt itu gw sih ga interested, tp wkt gw lg ada this trip with the school and we were sitting together, dia nyuruh gw dengerin Carousel dr Discman dia (YAAA, masih jaman2nya discman :p). Dari situlah gw mulai suka sm Blink-182, until now :) So skrg udah hampir 5 taun gw suka sm Blink-182. OH! And gara2 dialah gw jd suka BANGET sm bassist and punya keinginan kuat of having a bassist boyfriend of my own, just like what I used to have dulu haha karena in the end ternyata he and I ended up dating for 3 months and 3 days :)

-THE END-

For now, that's all. I'll continue sharing other stories from a couple more of songs next time! :) See ya, people : D
