Exceptional

maybe today everything seems so perfect. too perfect that makes you want to hold every moments, crystalize them, put it into a jar and won't ever let it go. it eventually became a habit. so addictive. but then, the more we get higher, the bigger worries comes up. life... is a damn roller coaster. we'll never know to where the future will bring us....

"I don't want to make this so beautiful only at first, and end up miserably; you love me, then you don't.."
"we won't. we'll take this as we're building a home"
"are we drunk? because you know, somehow when you're drunk you have to get ready to get hangover"
"we're not drunk. I assure you. at least I'm not. I love you. let's build this home together"
"don't fade away, this feeling"
"it won't." 

....but as for this one, for the very first time, I want to believe that the future is ours.
this is an exception.

what do you really get in your mind when hearing the words 'best friend'? first people that pop up in your mind must be your closest friends, at this moment. but here's the ugly truth. friends come and go.... even best friends do. as we grow older, we grow apart. our perspectives always change. communication doesn't work the way it used to be. meeting new cooler people. leaving old friends behind. total strangers become friends, while friends turn out to be strangers.. it brings a bunch of question marks to me. but somehow, the reason why friends come and go lies within the mysterious ways of how the whole world work together at the same time. and as mere human, we live to accept things that are brought to us, just like that. that's why.... to some irrational questions, we'll never find out the answers.

and yeah, friends. it's just me or it is true that people find it difficult to get a reliable friend nowadays? it's not about the sociality and so on, it's just a simple thought trying to define the real friendship. don't get me wrong. I have many wonderful and kind hearted friends all around me. it's just... as I've said before, another random thought. and anyway, without trying to sound too demanding here, to find friends and listen to their daily stories is easy, but to find friends who truly care enough just to listen to your grievances? it's totally another story. difficult, it is, but still difficult is not impossible. so, to those who already find best friends, what a precious, a priceless treasure you have.

kay I'm done blabbering. never mind craps I wrote above. my point is, I miss some friends of mine who used to be close to me. and in anyhow I couldn't find a way to reach some of them.. that's...just....sad. but  yeah, life goes on. people come and go, and no matter how cliche it is, that's just how the whole universe works together.

pour le moment, suffit de maintenir a ce moment. apprecier la vie et l'amour meilleurs amis..
c'est la vie. c'est la vie.

Special

recently, the 2011 version of me loves some new things. some things I'd directly refuse if you ask me to back in the 2010. Traveling around Jakarta on weekdays, biggie rings, culinary, staying up until dawn, Bruno Mars's songs, romance movies, cycling, phone calls on Skype, number 4, and him. wait...no, no 'him' couldn't be included. he's not just a thing anyway. for me now..... he represents more than just a thing. (oh crap. I'm so bad in making sweet words and this paragraph starts to sound cheesy haha sorry)

yupe. I'm now off the market. a new beginning, a new empty book to be filled in by new story of boy and girl. but for this one, I constantly wish that this won't be just another story. and also I hope he doesn't just count me as another number. it's special. because as for me, I never fought this far before just to be with someone. and yeah, I've found that to be with him is something I couldn't ask more.

I'm officially in love.

p.s: I know you gotta read this and you'll mock me after.. but you know what? I don't care. even I know that stuff I still finished this post for you. hehe
p.p.s: trust me.
