Nah! I had enough! My head feels like want to explode!
Language is the key of human communication. I understand how important it is to understand several different languages. It helps you communicate with many people from different countries. But be careful with that thing. Your brain has its own limit, too.

Well, in this case, i blame globalization.

i live in a third world country, which means English is an absolute requirement to survive in this competition. Even though we have our own national language. Next, I found that today everyone uses English, so I have to find another language to differ me with the other. I choose Japanese, and that language brings up a lot of bonus. I'm talking about hiragana, katakana, and kanji. Painful, I know. Another problem is I live in a country that has a huge culture diversity: different place, different culture, different language too. And in my case, I live in Bali, that means balinese language. Plus, I learn quite of some different traditional language too, like Javanese, Sundanese, Padang, and many more.

It's getting me insane when it comes to conversation You know what, like a whole bunch of synonym for a single word in many language comes across your mind. I often get slipped of my words, or talking in a weird mix multi-language conversation. To give you an example, I'll translate you a song into 3 languages: english, indonesian, and balinese. Hmmm... I'll choose a song from my favourite band, Arashi.

ARASHI - Happiness (shiawase/kebahagiaan/kayunan)
[let's just do the refrain. If I translate the whole part, It will take a whole page of my blog]

*hashiri dase, hashiri dase! (start running! start running!/mulailah berlari! mulailah berlari!/mulai melaib! mulai melaib!)
Asu wo mukae ni ikou. (let's go and welcome tomorrow/ayo pergi dan sambut hari esok/mai mejalan lan sambut dina mani)
Kimi dake no otto wo kikasete yo (sing for your sound only/bernyanyilah hanya untuk suaramu/gendingang munyin rage gen)
Zenbu kanjiteru yo (I feel it all/aku merasakan semuanya/tiang ngerasayang konyangan)

P.S: ah! dame da! bari go wo dondon wasurete iru!


Happy birthday to you...
Happy birthday to you...

A short song, but full with joy when somebody sing it for you.
It's a song that reminds you how grateful we are, to be born in this world.
And on 25th of January (tomorrow),
I really wish I could sing it for my man, Sakurai Sho.

Happy birthday, dear Sho-chan...
Happy birthday to you..

From this faraway place, I can only say:

Happy birthday, dear.
Wish the best for your life and career,
Up until now,
You've made me really proud!
Although we haven't ever met each other,
I'm glad to know you,
I'm glad to have you...

Yeah,
Sho-chan is the member of Arashi, my favourite J-pop boyband.
He and his group has made a big change in my life, have done a great thing about my life.
They're more than just another boyband. They have something special inside.
Whatever happens, I believe they'll be standing still.
Because I know, my boys are the best.

It's them who cause the storm.
Because they are... ARASHI

Omoshiroi tokoro, kazan da. Anou... mezurashii odori wo shita.
This is a kinda weird dance move that i got (well, buy) from a shop in this volcano.
Everytime the volcano will get erupted, everybody will do this silly move.
In my case, the spot wasn't just right. I danced in front of the dino skeleton.
So, looks like I danced for the dino, eh? (・∀・)
