Sendiri. Atau Berdua

Ketika orang-orang lain datang berduaan atau bertiga, atau bahkan berlima, aku cuma membeli satu karcis, satu popcorn, dan satu minuman. Mungkin semua orang mengira-ngira apakah akan ada seorang lain yang datang menemuiku, dan akan ada dua orang yang menonton atau memang aku hanya menonton film malam ini sendirian tanpa ada yang temani. Kupegang karcis sambil menyeruput minumku seakan-akan mengkonfirmasi bahwa aku menonton sendiri. Tentu saja ini hanya terjadi di kepalaku saja, orang-orang mungkin tidak menyadari aku hadir di situ.
"Pintu teater 4 telah dibuka. Harap penonton yang memiliki karcis untuk masuk ke dalam ruang teater"
Mendengar pengumuman itu, aku melenggang masuk dan menyerahkan satu potong karcis untuk disobek. Begitu duduk di dalam selama kurang lebih 5 menit, sebuah pesan masuk.
"sudah di dalam?"
"sudah. kau?" aku mengetik balik
"Sudah juga. Beda 5 menit dari jadwalmu"
"Sip. Kalau begitu selamat menonton"
"Selamat menonton juga.."
Kumakan popcornku dengan tersenyum. 120 menit lagi ditambah 5 menit lagi, aku bisa membahas film ini, entah adegannya, pemainnya, atau hal lain dengan dia.
 Dia yang jauh, tetapi tidak pernah terasa jauh.
Karena kami selalu menemukan cara untuk terus bersama-sama walaupun waktu dan tempat kadang tidak saling menyetujui.

Currently - October Mood

Let the intermezzo is in!
A halt for previous series. I need to release my October mood. I have been haunted by this idea that I am doubting my own heart. It is like... I know the answer is there, but my mind is still speculating this and that. It is confusing and exhausting. It reminds me a lot of those days back in 2011 when I struggled on whether to go home or to stay in the States. Here, all over again with different matters, with more uncertainty. Growing up, things are not getting easier haha... Here it is an excerpt from an Indonesian movie in early 2000, starred Rachel Maryam and Marcel Siahaan - Andai Ia Tahu. 

Kejujuran itu seperti es krim
Kalau tidak dilahap... bakalan cepat meleleh.. 
hilang ditelan hawa panas. 
Bisep di tangan itu kan otot fisik. Nah.. kejujuran itu otot mental. 
Dan otot harus dilatih terus.. biar kuat...

Hari ini latihan kejujuran gue... 
Jujur pada diri sendiri...

Gue takut... 
Takut kalau intuisi gue mengenai banyak hal selama ini salah... 
Gue takut... 
Takut kalau gue bangun besok matahari nggak muncul di timur...
Atau gimana ketika gue bangun besok...
Gue baru tahu..

Kalau hati bisa salah...

Renata - Andai Ia Tahu, 2002

Honesty is like an ice cream. If it is not eaten, it will be gone out of the heat. Biceps in our hands are muscles, honesty is mental's muscles. And muscles are supposed to be trained.
My honesty train for today is.. honest to my self.

I am scarred...
Scarred if my intuition about many things are wrong.
I am scarred...
Scarred if I wake up tomorrow, the sun is not showing from East.
Or how about if I am waking up tomorrow, I just know that... heart can be wrong...

It is representing what I have been feeling. Following heart. Intuition. All is my thing, but... I am in that position where my head speaks louder stirring my heart. I have fears. Nonetheless, I also encountered one good quote early this month...

Are you feeling a bit shaken, maybe stirred, and maybe fearful, and completely, utterly, wildly terrified? 

Good! Keep Going!

Victoria Erickson

So... Chen... Clench you teeth hard and keep going!!!

Currently - June Edition

Whoa, it becomes a trend for me to write a 'Currently' post before the 'actual post' that I originally planned to put it up. haha.
Oh Well.
Maybe, I need to jot down things that have been happening recently to clear my mind before totally settling for the post I originally planned. It is less than 10 days before turning into July. Half way through 2016!! Can you believe it? And so much melancholy moments in the beginning of 2016, now, I am more settled, and see things more positively.

1. Traveling and traveling and traveling!!! OMG
Starts from April to the next few months, I will do a lot of traveling. Personal reasons not so much on the working sides. Working matters only about Surabaya. Not to other cities (thanks God). But, it takes a lot of time for traveling. 2 hours drive up to 3 hours drive, not to mention that I only go to Surabaya in the morning and going back at night time. It is quiet exhausting. Anyway... I am ecstatic that I am going to do more traveling for weddings. From Malaysia, to Solo, to the next destination which I will reveal it on the d-day. Just tune in. :) For these 3 people plus 1 later in Surabaya are my closest when I was in college. I am honored to be invited on their special day. I have to miss a couple of weddings in Makassar due to work and hectic schedule for the past few years, this year I finally can manage my time better, so I take a chance to travel for their special days. I am still hoping for a total leisure trip in the end of the year. I mean a trip without any work-related or wedding-related, just a pure traveling for fun. I have a couple of plans, but things can go unexpectedly. Well, Crossing fingers!!!
Soon, I will post about my last trip to Solo :)

2. Song-wise. I discover a jazz singer named Sara Gazarek, and I am a total fan of her music. Her voice similar to Sara Bareilles but with more jazzy tunes in it. Thanks to spotify and I am surprised that my account from 5 years ago still can be used.

3. less than 10 days, I am going to go home in Makassar. Finally!! I don't know why and how, but I have been missing home more these past years. Compared to when I was in US, I went home more often when I lived in Malang or Surabaya; nonetheless, I found myself more in 'homesick'  states compared to the other years when I was living in the US. Perhaps, because it takes only 2 hrs trip by plan to be home? Anyway, I am excited to see my cousins, friends, and my parents again. and of course baby Euro, Gassing, and my super Echong are waiting for me..

4. Superman returns is now with a new format by having three dads babysitting three babies. This joint baby sitting is my favoriteeeeeee. YDG is super fun to watch and who is not falling for Oh Ji Ho's sweet smile? But, to my surprise In Gyo Jin is cute as well. I love the babies too. They are soooo adorable. However, since they are still babies, more fun on the dads part. lol.

5. I have been watching a current-air dramas. Meaning more updated ones. I don't wait anymore for it is to end to watch it because I might be more serious on reviewing dramas. Tho, I certainly will keep watching older dramas too. Stay tune on Let's Talk. Currently watch; Dear My Friends, Oh hae Young again, and Six Flying Dragons. I think I am having so much fun on writing blogs (or typing). More fun than the previous years (after 2011). Therefore, I think I might be more active on writing again. I am open for translation and articles writing. You may email me on cvianeybudhi@gmail,com. I can write in Bahasa and in English. But, for now, I will be focusing more on my blogs. I have been thinking to add one more blog! (seriously, Chen???) LOL. It will be about writing in Bahasa; more prose, or short stories. But still thinking about it. Nothing to serious. Managing two is hard enough. Oh well, we'll see about it.
Next on Let's Talk - Extras (Actresses Edition) and Korean Rising Stars (Actors and Actresses)

K-Wave Victim

I love anything about Korean.
It is obvious isn't it?
I like Korean food, I like Korean drama, I like Korean singer, and variety shows. But, I am still the 'odd' Chendani who prefers something that is out of the heat. Anti-mainstream? Not really! But, I guess... I always fell over a drama, singer, movie, or actors that are not so known by others. It is always me. It works the same way with other genres. I generally prefer Indonesian movies over Hollywood movies. Same with this whole K-wave thing. While others love Running Man, I love 2days and 1 night more. While others have watched "My Sassy Girl"and claimed it as the best Korean movie, I chose "Seducing Mr. Perfect" and "My Father" as the best Korean movie. Yes! Both are starred by Daniel Henney. No... I did not pick it because of Daniel Henney despite his super masculine look (Yes! I totally fell for him), but because those movies brought so much more about Korea to me.
I am just saying that I love Korea Wave with a different current than the others. I can say that I was a little bit late, love something that is not really common about it, and I love the food because of the food, not because of Korean drama or whatsoever. Nevertheless, I am still one of the victims of K-wave.

As a starter, Korean drama was just like a fresh start to begin the K-Wave journey. I think every person in my age agree that we fell for Hotelier and All About Eve. Jang Dong Gun and Bae Young Jun era everybody! However, I was not really crazy about them, I just acknowledged that those were good dramas.I was not instantly getting into Korean wave. Instead, my mom fell for it so much in early time. She was madly in love with Bae Young Jun. She even joined the fanclub and flew to South Korea for April Snow screening. HAhahaa, yes... my mambo did it.
Ever since she came back from Korea, we were more and more into Korean food. I loved the utensils. I started eating ramyeon in a pot just like in the Korean drama. The first real Korean food I tasted was in 2006, in Brisbane Australia. Oh yes... I have been enchanted by the authentic taste of the broths and fell for Kimchi even more.
I think Korean drama and Korean food brought me trough all the K-wave journey. Then, in 2008 or 2009, I encountered Korean movie called Seducing Mr. perfect - casts; Uhm Jung Hwa and Daniel Henney. I could not remember how I met with this movie. Gaaah. I was in love. First, Daniel Henney was too hot. Secondly, the story was fresh and fun. Lastly, I bought the soundtrack. They were delighted. It took me to a surprise that South Korea has jazz (Of course it has the genre you moron!). The song was amazing. It brought me to a singer named Alex who is in a band called Clazziquai. Everybody else may love Super Junior or Boa, but my first favorite Korean singer was Clazziquai, an electro pop slash jazz trio. I instantly downloaded the whole album (OST). Well, I like Princess Hours soundtrack as well, but I was really surprised hearing this song. I am basically a jazz lover, so I did not need any other reason to be in love with it.

Then, it was my Korean movies era. I watched so many Korean movies including My Father (Yes, Daniel Henney in it again). My most fave K-movie. It was a story about an adopted Korean child who seeks of his biological parents. Daniel Henney proved his emotional acting whilst I admitted how mellow Korean movie can be. I discovered a Happy Sad Ending term here. It was enough to make me cry, but not because of sadness. It was beyond words. That powerful. (you may also check My Son, Little Prince, harmony, and Miracle cell number 7). 

  There were more Korean movies similar to this one added to my fave list, but anyway I think I have watched both these movies many times and still liked it. Then, it came to me the Variety Show era where I started with "We Got Married." It was all Alex's fault. He was one of the members and he was too romantic. We Got Married was so dreamlike show. It made one male and female celebrities hung out together just like a married couple. It was like a cruel show to make us 'live like a dream.' haha It was too surreal. They acted like a real couple even though they were not closed at first. Anyway, I was one of those who immersed into the show up to season 2. I haven't seen We Got Married for 6 years now (Yes, the program is still running). That show has made me know more about K-pop.  The theme musics  were so nice. Then, I knew about Yurisangja, Linus Blanket, Sung Si Kyung, Shinhwa, and finally.... Sweet Sorrow!
I did not love Sweet Sorrow at first. I thought it was just a skinny male group dancing and singing, but I was so wrong! They are so great in harmonization. Acapella and jazz, my dynamic duo. I would just love anything when these two involved. They got both. Enough said.
Wait a minute! I thought that I just met them in We Got Married show, but nope... I actually have heard them wayyy before We Got Married. It was in Seducing Mr. Perfect OST. The ending song. I thought it was sang by Alex as well, but later I figured that it was sung by Sweet Sorrow!!!. It was a very ear-catchy jazz tune.

More and more Korean shows. X-Man, Love Letter, Family Outing, and even Running Man, but I think I was so into Korean variety show after I had a tv cable at home. We got KBS World. Mammamia, Immortal Songs 2, and the cutest of all was The Return of Superman. I could see why people nowadays love Korean show so much. From lovey dovey, food, trip, crazy game, and heartwarming emotion. They all have those in the show. They put it altogether finely. All the interactions are natural yet entertaining. Unlike Indonesian show nowadays. It just makes me sigh... Full of trashy conversation and one's weak point. It is just unhealthy to watch.

X-man

Living without TV, I am depending on streaming show. Every week I wait for Immortal Songs 2 and The Return of Superman new episode. Both are my ultimate favorite show. I haven't got bored seeing those two. Immortal Songs 2 as I have posted in my other blog, is a complete course of what Korean music world can show. Through it, I knew more about the past of Korean songs, I knew more about the ability of those musicians, and how fun they are in the studio. They teased each other, praised each other, and moved each other's heart trough their singing. Many re-discovery here. Moon Myung Jin and Ha Dong Qn found their place in the music industry again after a long absence.

Moon Myung Jin

I also found new face of Korean music. A fun Rock band - Rose Motel, A husky vocalist - Jo Jang Hyuk and the Male Bada. Not to mention, the sexy singer, JK Kim Dong Wook. I watched them in Immortal Songs 2, and I am freaking in love with them. That stage has had many things happened. Fun rendition from Ulala Session, a story telling from Ali, and many more. In short, I know more about Korean music. Additionally, I was introduced to Korean Musical actors and singers. South Korea has many adaption of Broadway - Rent. (Please check the Barbettes, Im Tae Kyung, and Mamammoo). Not to mention, I begun to know all the singers from the past as well. Names like Yoo Jae Ha, Kim Gun Mo, Lee Moon Sae, Pearl Sister, Deul guk hwa. Haha, Ah I just love this show. It makes me to be totally in love with Korean Music.

Deul guk hwa

And this year is my Korean Drama year I may claim. I have watched more dramas than the previous years. I can say my taste is a bit stirred because of MISAENG. It ruins everything. Hahaha, After Misaeng euphoria, I was really picky about drama that I watched. Sometimes, I left the show without finishing the first episode, some other time I jumped from episode 8 to the last episode for the ending sake. Dang it. However, indeed. Korean drama is so popular. They are really well made. Every TV production has their own thing. We have a high-fashioned complicated story or fun rom com from KBS, we have twisted and revenged base drama from SBS, we have medium tone drama from MBC, and well-crafted drama fram tvN. It is just so dynamic.

In the end... the main reason why I love South Korean shows because it is heartwarming. From Superman Returns, to singers and songs, to KPop Star hunt, to drama.

I bravely state that K-wave is a beautiful disaster for me. It is just a legitimate note that K-wave has moved me to the point where I can't move anymore. Overwhelmed.
I am a fan...
that's it.

I put a list of my favorites for several categories for fun...

Katakanlah ini sebuah Elegi

Masih bulan Agustus, langit sudah mendung.
Aku menengadah. Begitu kelabu.
Baru saja memasuki tahun baru, tidak lama lagi,akan merayakan natal.
Ha begitu banyak yang terlewat, begitu membosankan.

Rasa kopi makin pahit
hati masih sakit

Tidak ada yang benar kecuali aku sekarang sendiri.
hanya sendiri.

Buku-buku tak terbaca
Video streaming yang kelamaan loading.
makanan yang itu-itu saja.
dan tembok yang makin lama makin menguning

Tidak ada yang baru kecuali aku sekarang sendiri.
Benar-benar sendiri.

diletakannya cangkir kopi yang tak habis. Menarik napas panjang sambil menggulung lengan kemejanya. Jas kerjanya terlampir di tangannya. Ia membayar kopi yang ia minum lalu berjalan keluar meninggalkan tempat itu.  

Pintu kafe berbunyi ketika dia keluar. 
Cangkirnya lalu dibawa pelayan ke dalam, kursi bekas dia duduk dikembalikan di posisi semula. Bekas cangkir kopi di meja dilap begitu saja. 
Tak lama kemudian, pintu kafe berbunyi lagi, orang lain menempati kursi itu. Pelayan yang sama melayani pengunjung baru. Tidak ada lagi bekas-bekas tentang dia di kafe itu. 
Begitu halnya dia di dalam kehidupan seseorang yang lain... yang tidak perlu kita panjang lebarkan di sini.

My (own) favorite things

(singing in My Favorite Things tune  - The Sound of Music)


Rain drops on roses
And I'm watching Elmo
Singing A B C with Abby Cadabby
Wearing a great dress and a pair of red heels
These are a few of my favorite things....

Cuddling my papo and Echong and Gassing
Playing piano till my fingers are aching
Laughing and eating and singing with cousins

These are a few of my favorite things

When the 'sad' comes
When the 'down' comes
When I am feeling boreeeed...

I'm singing and typing these silly lyrics...

and then I don't feeeelll
sooooo baaaaaaaadddd

"Oh no... you did it again"

Cerita malam - 'Kepada Hati'

Selamat malam hati,
apa kabarmu?
Merindukah atau menyepi sebab sepi?
Kau kira akan ramai lagi?
Ternyata tidak begitu?

Angin malam menyapu,
tanpa pesan apapun
Bahkan yang diharap tak berkunjung
Yang dilakukan hanya tunggu, menunggu, dan menunggu.
Sambil kembali berharap semu.
Kembali merindu...

Selamat malam hati...
tidurlah...
biarkan malam mengganti membuat melupa.
Walaupun, kau tahu betul, otak tak mengingat, tapi hati tak pernah tahu perihal lupa
Rasa tetap ada dan membekas.
Lalu... apa yang kau buat setelah tahu?

Diam

Surat kepada Matahariku

Dear Matahariku,

Pagi ini matahari bersinar cerah di tengah musim hujan. Bukan memberikan panas yang menyengat seperti biasa, tetapi membagi hangat sebentar. Dan kau tahu? Aku terbangun dengan sumringah. Bukan karena kau datang menghampiri lewat mimpi, tetapi karena aku merasa hari ini berbeda. Kata orang, hati tidak bisa berbohong. Hari ini frontal ia membuat aku merasa excited sepanjang hari hanya dari hal-hal yang sederhana. Good hair day, notifikasi yang mengejutkan sekaligus menyenangkan (kau pasti tahu itu dari siapa), ke kantor tepat waktu. Remeh temeh, tapi entah mengapa aku excited.

Ah kau tahu...
Kejadian baik masih berlanjut hari ini.. Suratku masuk ke majalah, kiriman datang tepat waktu, dan malam ini aku bertemu kawan baru.

Hari baik ini membuat aku berpikir satu hal. Tak bisa aku bohong bahwa aku selalu berharap kau juga merindukan aku seperti aku selalu merindukanmu. Tapi, sekarang itu tak penting lagi. Kita sama-sama tahu bahwa hidup ini berputar ke depan. Tidak ada yang bisa diulang. Jika kau rindu akan hari yang kita habiskan bersama sebaiknya kau jangan buang-buang energi. Jika kau rindu aku sebagai aku, tak perlu malu. Kata orang hati tak pernah berbohong. Satu saranku, dengarkan baik-baik hati itu. Apa ia akan membiarkan kata yang belum terucap tetap terbungkam. Ataukah dia tahu bahwa kini kita telah siap?
Aku tak ambil pusing dengan keputusanmu. Walaupun aku sepertinya tahu seperti apa pada akhirnya. Sudah, itu tak penting lagi.

Karena kau tahu? Sinar matahari hari ini menemani aku ketika tiba-tiba aku tersenyum mengingatmu. Tidak. Aku tidak menangis seperti dulu lagi. Kau tahu apa artinya? Karena aku mengindahkanmu sebagai sosok. Bukan sebagai kenangan. Aku tidak mau lagi sedih mengenangmu karena apa yang kita lewati tak bisa terulang lagi. Tapi, aku mengenangmu karena kau pernah ada untuk menyatakan aku yang sekarang. Kuharap kau pun begitu. Entah aku bisa benar-benar dekat dengan mu lagi atau tidak, aku tak tahu. Tapi satu yang aku tahu bahwa kau matahari, tak akan ke mana. Sinarmu akan aku rasakan terus. Itu sudah cukup.

Aku tahu surat ini terjadi dalam kepalaku saja, tapi bukan berarti this is not real right?

Karena hatiku yang tak berbohong itu berkata...

'doa selalu didengar'

dan begitu adanya

#100happydays

I finished #100happydays 3 days ago.I iImpulsively decided to join in and on the very same day I had a bad day. However, it turned out I appreciated the meal that I had on that night and posted it as the first post of my #100happydays.
#100happydays is a non profit organization that invite people around the world to be happy. It says that many people now spend their 24 hours by not doing anything else but work work work. Also surrounded by negativity; whilst actually there are many small positive things that can make their day. By posting one picture that makes you happy, we are reminded by one small thing than can have power to turn our day to be a better one. At least, by the end of the day you will think of one positive thing to complete your post; even though, your day is full of sh*t.
Not every single day is a happy day. Not rare that I have to 'create' my happy picture. I usually put up memories that make me happy or inspiring quotes. However, there are more days that are genuinely happy. Small or big things. I am happy when I write, when I eat good food, when I meet friends and families, when I suddenly found a meal on my desk, when I see sun rise, when talk about something excitingly, when I watch a movie and shed happy tears and many many good memories. However, on the 100th day, I just know what makes me happiest is being born into my family. Being raised by them. Being present, now, at the very moment. 
Passing day 50s, my days are more genuinely. Automatically, I will find or create a happy picture.I basically think or find one good thing to conclude my day. It makes me feel better. It is always a joy to post one picture a day, not a torture. It is voluntarily done, not forced. 100 days seem fly so fast. It is a bittersweet feeling when it comes to an end. So, I promise my self to continue posting whatever happens that make me happy.
We need happy feelings. Especially, I am a moody person, highly sensitive in certain times. Happy days are easy to create, memories, friends, strawberry juice, free food or simply a lively conversation.In the end, these posts are full of gratitude. Every single piece has its own reason to make me say grace. Basically,

Happy Happy Days
