Amazed

Until this second I write this post, I am still an oldies songs lover. I just can not really get in to nowadays songs. 90's are my latest fave in mind and heart. Well, I can't deny the glorious song of Michael Buble's Everything of course for nowadays finest song :)
And I remembered this one song. One remake song of course, but I noticed this once sung by Trademark, entitled Amazed.
Every time our eyes meet
This feeling inside me
Is almost more than I can take
Baby when you touch me
I can feel how much you love me
And it just blows me away
I've never been this close to anyone or anything
I can hear your thoughts
I can see your dreams

Chorus:

I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you

The smell of your skin

The taste of your kiss
The way you whisper in the dark
Your hair all around me
Baby you surround me
You touch every place in my heart
Oh it feels like the first time every time
I wanna spend the whole night in your eyes

(Repeat Chorus x2)

It was brought to us by Lonestar, which became the greatest song at that moment in Billboard 100 chart Just like in 1983 for Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton's Islands In The Stream. FYI, I love Islands In The Stream too :) Very Much.
Okay, later then we knew that this romantic song was covered too by several artist such as Bonnie Tyler, Duncan James, Fady Maalouf, Ben Mills, Boyz II Men, and Trademark. Wow, as I listing here, I figure out how many times this song has been re-covered :)
well, after all those links I also put in this post - why do I feel that I put very much links in this post? - All I need to say is I love this song :) You can download the Trademark version here :)

ARCHIE Comics

Once again! I come with the announcement HOW I REALLY LOVE COMICS! :):)
I just forgot to put this one of bunches comics I like in this blog.
So, please welcome The ARCHIE COMICS :)

Archie Comics Logo from Cartoonart.org  . On Eva Tarida
I once knew this comics from one of my uncle - my mom's brother - He stepped by to our house one day when I was in elementary school, and in the middle of conversation he handed me this Archie comics. He said "This is not Japan comics like you usually read" So I went super curious and started reading.
Yeah, quoting from it's official website :
The Archie Comics line of comic books is one of the most successful, longest running brands in the history of the comic industry. Archie Comics have sold 1.5 billion comics and are published in a dozen different foreign languages and distributed all over the world. Archie Comics has spawned characters whose popularity has spilled over into other media and who have become part of popular culture. SABRINA THE TEENAGE WITCH and JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS are just some of the many legendary franchises that are part of the Archie Comics Library.
And I agree with above statement :)

 However, I had it first already translated in Bahasa Indonesia. I have around 5 comics with Bahasa Indonesia translated. After several times, I forgot about it because of huge hurricanes of another great comics around me :) :) Then, when I went to the used books store, I found Archie comics again! Suddenly I remembered and started to hunted them again.
Unfortunately, I can only have Archie Comics in English by now :(

But that's fine, Thanks God I granted with a good skill in English, and amazing sense of humor ( haha ) I can barely understand what the stories are all about :) :)
Ah, and then I found out that they made the franchise of it with presenting us the Betty and Veronica, Jughead, The Pussycats, etc!
Hopefully, I can find another great Archie comics and friends of course.

And the other experiences here, here, and here.

At night, July 13th, 2011.. I sent a message to my colleagues at the office and of course my Boss also through Blackberry Messenger.
Here is my message:

Setahun lalu waktu subuh, saya dan teman-teman baru pulang sehabis final Piala Dunia 2010. Paginya, sambil sedikit terkantuk, kira-kira pukul 9 pagi, telepon masuk dan meminta saya untuk datang besok dan mulai bekerja. Besok pagi saya datang dengan penuh semangat dan memulai langkah pertama. Tepat hari ini, setahun sudah saya memperoleh pengalaman dan pengetahuan baru yang tak terkira di PT. Delphia Prima Jaya. :) Semoga saya bisa memberikan yang jauh lebih baik lagi di tahun-tahun ke depan! :D

CAPITAL

CAPITAL . Taken from Eva Tarida Blackberry

CAPITAL, bukan berbicara mengenai capital city atau capital-capital lainnya. Melainkan nama salah satu warung tenda favorit saya! :)
Menu di sana sih cuma 1 macam lauk saja : IKAN. Tinggal pilih, ada Ikan Lele, Ikan Dorang, Ikan Bandeng, Ikan Baracuda, Ikan Gurami, Ikan Kakap, dan beberapa pilihan lainnya.
Pertama kali mencoba sih gara-gara sering beli terangbulan di dekat situ. Sembari nunggu, saya mengedarkan pandangan gitu ke kiri dan kanan. Ga sengaja lihat ada satu warung tenda yang rameee banget. Mulai dari orang yang jalan kaki, naik sepeda, sepeda motor, sampai yang naik mobil. Spontan deh, saya nyeletuk "eh, tuh rame banget ya. Coba yuk kapan-kapan" Dan ternyata ditanggapi positif oleh pacar saya yang waktu itu menemani saya beli terangbulan.
Singkat kata, saya dan pacar pun mencoba warung CAPITAL tersebut dan ter.PUAS.kan!
Serius deh!
Saya yang anti-pedas pun bisa makan ikan penyetan dengan sambal tidak pedas a la CAPITAL itu.
Harganya pun relatif murah. Kalau pesan Ikan Lele, harganya cuma Rp 8,000 dan dapat 2 ekor ;) Asyik kan.
CAPITAL. Ikan Lele dan Baracuda - by: Eva Tarida
Menu yang kami berdua paling sering pesan sih:
Ikan Lele 1 porsi
Ikan Baracuda 1 porsi
Nasi Putih 2 Piring
Es Teh Manis / Teh Manis Hangat 2 gelas.
Kesemuanya itu cuma menghabiskan uang Rp 22,000 saja :) Ikan Baracudanya ukurannya juga cukup besar, lho.
Kalau stock mereka lagi banyak, kita bisa pilih ukuran ikan sesuai selera, dan harga juga bisa disesuaikan.

Semenjak itu sih saya dan pacar jadi keranjingan makan di situ. Plus, kami juga promo ke teman-teman. Masakan ikannya yang pas, nasinya yang hangat, dan minumannya yang segar, plus harganya yang sesuai, bikin saya, pacar, dan teman-teman jadi gemar ke sana.
Padahal nih, semua pegawainya laki-laki lho. Haha.. Ga ada hubungannya sih, ya ;)

Capital sudah buka tiga (3) tenant. Di Kutisari, di Pondok Chandra Indah, dan di Sidoarjo.
Well, oke, gitu aja dulu. Selamat Makan!
