New Blog

I just made a new blog which contains some stories or tales I create by myself. There are already 3 posts there. Don't worry, I will keep updating this blog. I made a new one because I will make this as an English blog only. I will not post something in Bahasa here. So when I make a story or have something to tell in Bahasa I will post there. But it's still a simple blog only. I haven't design it. But iI'll be happy if you check it out. Here is the link >>

Coldplay Live 2012

Brace Yourself, Coldplay will release their second live album, Coldplay Live 2012. Have you ever watched Live 2003 before? It's been 9 years since Coldplay released it. And now they come with their new live album, Coldplay Live 2012. It's about Coldplay live performances on Paris Stade de France, Montreal Centre Bell and Glastonbury 2011. The album will be released on November 19, but you can pre-order it first here. The album will be released by Parlophone on CD/DVD, DVD/CD, Blue Ray/CD, and digitally. Fyi, the director for this film is Paul Dugdale who's also the director of Adele’s Live at Royal Albert Hall dan The Prodigy’s Worlds On Fire. If you have been very anxious about this album, you can watch the official trailer HERE. And this is the complete track list for the album >>. On their official twitter, Phil Harvey added that The Scientist and Don't Let It Break Your Heart will come as the bonus track.
Chris Martin said that this Mylo Xyloto tour is actually the best moment of Coldplay as a band. In this tour, they started using LED wristband which we all know as 'Xylobands'. In the end, the frontman gives a huge appreciation for the fans :
"Over the years, our crowd has become more and more a part of the concert itself. They're loud, diverse, full of soul, and make the songs sound much better than we can on our own."

An Amazing Inauguration Night with English Department UNS

Last night was one of best night I've ever had. Sorry for just posting it and also for not including any pics in. I don't have any :( Wait, I haven't told you what happened last night. Okay, here I'm gonna start it. So last night was the inauguration of OFF AIR (an event welcoming new students like me held by English Department). It was very amazing. All the ED family, not only the fresh men also join this event. First, we watched the video that was made by the fresh men. So 1 month before, we had been divided into 6 groups. Each group make one video. The name of the groups were taken from TV programs such as News, Reality Show, Talk Show, Parody, Infotainment, and Music. And at the inauguration, before we played each video the group have to send two members to represent about the video. And they also have to wear a special clothes. well,, we usually call it 'Cosplay'. All the groups really have done their best. We're all satisfied about the video. But there must be the best of best. So the best video went to 'Infotainment' group. They made a video about Anang and Ashanty spent their Holiday in Solo haha. But my group, Reality Show, also won an award on Best Yel and Backsong. Undoubtedly because Reality Show is a group of 11 loud and funny people. I'm proud to be a part of them! :)
The upper semesters also had a great performance. ED'11 came with their acoustic session. They played Rolling In The Deep, Somebody That I Used To Know, and When You Love Somebody. They also performed mix-dance, mostly Korean dance including Gangnam Style :D. 
The Inauguration was closed by the performance from BTB (Better Than Broadway) a drama group from ED. They performed a great drama. The story was involved by poor patient, a greed doctor who's only looking for money, a whore, a hoodlum, and a salesman. The salesman came to them offering the content in his case. He got many rejection from them. But then those people finally saw what's in his case. They showed many reactions. The poor patient was laughing terribly. The doctor was speechless. The whore were tempted to cry. And the hoodlum cried.  The day after they all knew what's in salesman's case, their whole life changed. The poor patient are healthy. The doctor isn't greed anymore. The whore now becomes a singer that's been her dream since long time ago. And the hoodlum becomes the singer's bodyguard. They told the audience that their current life is much better now. 
After that, the salesman finally appeared. He took his tie and jacket off. Then asked the audience whether we wanted to know what's in his case. And we all said 'yes'. Then he opened it, showed us the content. And it's not like what I've expected before. I was really speechless like the doctor when I knew about it. It was just a word printed on a paper. But it's such a magical word. 'HOPE' that's the word. The salesman also added that the HOPE can always make us stay alive. And what makes me get more goose bumps is the back song after it. The music crew played some chords of a song that I've already known. A song that makes hundred thousands of people sing along, spread all their dreams. 'You said that you've never been cos all the things that you've seen will slowly fade away'. Then I suddenly got some goose bumps after listening to a part of 'Don't Look Back In Anger'. Then all audiences clapped their hands. All the actors come up and the one that becomes the hoodlum asked us to sing along Don't Look Back In Anger. I surely didn't want to miss this moment. I sang along with all the audience though some of them didn't. I actually got cough and had a problem with my voice. But I kept singing, spread word by word. I felt like truly in an Oasis concert. DLBIA is truly a magical song which could unite all the people from different race. 
That was truly an amazing night. I will never forget it. I'm so happy to have a new family like ED :)
