Superhuman

I was in the middle of studying Managerial Economics
(for final exam purpose only)
and I got bored. BORED. Really really bored. I mean it. B.O.R.E.D.
Okay, you got the point.

So I rummaged through Youtube.
And with the help of my partner in crime, Untung Putra,
I found great videos of Youtube's artists. Gabe Bondoc, Davedays,
Cathy Nguyen, David Choi, many more.
I was mesmerized by such talent..
They were better than most singer on MTV. No kidding.
Which brought me to think..
______________________________________________

Some girls attracted to guys who could run faster, jump higher,
those athletes by nature.
Three point shots considered to be tactful movement
to aim for their hearts.
So the better they play, the more attractive these guys are. LOL.
Moreover, these girls don't see a bunch
of sweaty guys scrambling one ordinary ball.
Instead, they will see troupe of heroes
stomping to conquered their heart (*cheesy)
Look how patiently they will sit on the bleachers.
Outdoor.
Yes, even if it's in the midday, when the sun stroked with a full power.
Obviously I'm not this kind of girl.
Sorry, but I won't be going crazy for athletic guys.
I don't dislike them, really. I'm just not into sport-for-fun thing.

____________________________________________________

Some others can't helped falling in love for handsome guys.
Look and appearance was the main idea of a perfect significant other.
Of course, every girls has their own preferences.
Some wants fare skin, some wants darker.
Some wants wide eyes, another like slanted more.
Some prefers tall and skinny, some wants chubby and cuddly.
(So don't worry guys.
There will always someone out there
who'll find you are attractive to them. LOl)
I can't deny that looks was important.
I mean, I know I shouldn't "judge a book from its cover" only.
But whose going to buy a badly crumpled covered novel anyway,
if you can buy one still neatly wrapped up?
Yes, looks is important, indeed.
Although honestly, it's not on top 5 of my list. LOL.

____________________________________________________


The third type were those who won't reluctantly chasing men
with money and the power that comes with it.
Material girl, I think, is how people labelled them.
Hey, no need for further condemnation..!
I think they just trying to be realistic (in a too extreme way) about life.
Like my mom said once to me, "Love? Can it feed you?"
Of course it was a rhetorical question.
I once read Raditya Dika
(the author of Kambing Jantan and a great blogger from Indonesia)'s tweet.
"Money can't buy happiness. But it surely can buy things that make you happy"
Personally, money is still not even close to my top 5 list. LOL.

What I like the most in a guy? Hmm.. Let me tell you..
No! Let me SHOW it to you..



Catchy tunes that make me hummed all day long.

A creatively re-composed song that can surely beat the original one.



There's nothing compare to a beautifully play acoustics + originally written song + heart-melting lyrics + great voice + good looking guy. LOL
(Gabe Bondoc *sigh)

See those videos?
Then have you conclude what kinda guy I'm attracted to?
Yep. Musicians. LOL.
There's something about music and songs that straightly affect my mood and my feeling.

They soothe me when I'm about to going mad..
They comfort me when I'm frantically worried..
They calm me down when anger consumes me..
They definitely cheer me up when I'm gloomy..

____________________________________________________

If you can't get it right, let me conclude for you.

Firstly, I don't measure degree of attractiveness in a guy by their skill in sports.
Once again, I don't detest them, I just consider them as an ordinary human being.
Not a demigod. (a half god, fyi)

Secondly, outer appearance is important.
But since it won't last forever, I will never use it as a benchmark of a perfect partner.
(even the handsome Brad Pitt will go bald and wrinkled and toothless sooner or later. LOL)

Thirdly, money surely can buy you nice things.
But I won't bet my happiness or health or real friendship or redemption on it.
I surely lose in the end.

Music. That is the only thing that never failed to catch me off guard.

I don't need a super-athlete to impress me.
Neither a super-good looking guy to take my breath away.
Nor a multimillionaire to buy me everything in the world.
I don't need a superhuman to catch me when I fall.

All I need is a simple melody that make this life a little bit easier, less complicated, and more colorful.

So guys, grab your guitar and sing me a song, will you :) LOL

When God Made a Promise

“I know this is too fast. And please don’t ask me why, because I don’t have the answer. I don’t know why.” “I won’t ask you why. Because I know.. It’s God.”   Wkwkwkwkwwkwkwkwkww duh supershy padahal biasanya ga tau malu. I’m still getting used to this. But those who viewed our IG feed and saw the pic posted in FB would know what this is all about. The Promise of God. It’s been there, mentioned the wholeee time in my earlier posts, yet unnamed. I’ll try to recall the whole story. Some details would be lost in translation because there are wayyyy TOO MANY. Haha. Fyi. I’VE BEEN WAITING SOOO LOOOONG TO SHOUT THIS OUT LOUD. So, here goes. Last Sunday, R asked me out to dinner. A few days before, he’s mentioned this fancy place and I calmly (I think) said, “Yes, yes why not” while inside I was [insert screaming emoji here] knowing that this is not a normal dining experience. OMG. I was so glad it’s through a text message, otherwise he would see ...

My Miracle

So this weekend, my mom and Febe was in town. In fact, I've just sent them off a few hours ago. WOW! Wow God wow! That's all I can say.. I'm loving every second I spent with the two. Good food, good times. But above them all, good talk. The best kind of talk where God is so evident, so powerful, so ever-present, in everything that we said. Sometimes we tend to talk about God's miracle like it was so far away, so abstract, when actually it is right there in front of us. So tangible, we can grasp it with our hands. For example, when Febe mentioned about Dad and the accident and his sickness. We can see how God allowed his pride to be crushed. And out of a new-found humility, God shaped His character : more Christ, less of himself. I knew who my dad was, and I know who he is now. And all I can see is miracle written all over him. Through the worst the world can assume, God brings in His best for our good. Not to mentioned how God put a heart o...

The Boy Who Showed Me My WHY

So last week, the entire school left Redding for ministry trip around the States. I went to Phoenix for 8 days and came home to school with tons of testimonies of healing, people set free, delivered, and experiencing the love of the Father in the most tangible way. But here’s my personal take on the trip to Phoenix, AZ. I met a boy and this divine appointment marked my life forever. I told God (and my team mates), if the reason of my entire trip, all the whirlwind of fund raising and preparations, was just for this one moment with this boy, I would do it all over again.  So on an evening, I was told that I would go to minister to kids in a home church the next day. (On prerequisite of being in the trip with Bethel people is a heart that is always ready with a smiley YES to whatever comes next. HAHAH. So many last minute change, you could be blindsided by the suddenness of if. Or you can take it as an invitation to lean on the Holy Spirit leading. It’s nerve-wrecking for a bit, but ...
