se eu pudesse robar as gotas de luar que vi brilhar nos olhos teus...
I haven't stopped listening to Marisa Monte's "Memórias, Crônicas, e Declaracões de Amor" since the 13 hours plane ride from Frankfurt to Singapore. Most of the songs in this album got to my chest, it was like "why haven't I been listening to this all along?".
Di mobil tadi gw sama orang tua ngomongin pendidikan Bahasa Indonesia di sekolah, kenapa anak SMP (atau malah SD) di Prancis, misalnya, bisa menjelaskan konjugasi verbal tapi anak SMP di Indonesia belum tentu bisa menjelaskan perubahan makna yang terjadi jika sebuah kata ditambahkan affix tertentu. Let's not start on the "di" dan "ke" sebagai kata depan dan sebagai prefix. Jadi sebenarnya apa yang kita pelajari di pelajaran Bahasa Indonesia selama 12 tahun sekolah (atau 9 tahun wajib belajar)? Anyway, that discussion wasn't the reason that I started this post. Balik ke Marisa Monte dan lagu-lagu yang menohok. (Wakakak, menohok; the last time I saw that word was in a translated manga, "Gals".)
Songs like "Não vá embora", "Abololô", and the beautiful "Gotas de Luar" *sigh* I'll look if Marcos had put more Marisa Monte albums in the DVD he gave me. I kinda wished I had asked for his whole collection.
The person who put me in this mood (no, wait, I was the one who put me in this mood, this person made me want to feel like this) wrote me today, sweet. Well, this is interesting. A particularly interesting turbulence.
