TULUS - Pamit (Farewell)


Greetings, everyone! Today i'm going to describe a little bit about my favourite song, which is titled Pamit (Farewell) and sung by Tulus.

This song was published on February the 27th, 2016, and is a part of Tulus' third album. Tulus made the lyrics and composed the melody himself. And as for the background music, he coopperated with Ari Renaldi and The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra.

Check out his music video below :


TULUS - Pamit (Farewell) Lyrics :
Tubuh saling bersandar (Bodies leaning against each other)Ke arah mata angin berbeda (Towards a different direction)Kau menunggu datangnya malam (You're waiting for the arrival of night)Saat kumenanti fajar (When i'm waiting for the dawn)
Sudah coba berbagai cara (We've tried various way)Agar kita tetap bersama (To stay together)Yang tersisa dari kisah ini (The only thing that is left from this tale)Hanya kau takut kuhilang (Is just you being afraid of me missing)
Perdebatan apapun menuju kata pisah (Any arguments lead to parting words)Jangan paksakan genggamanmu (Don't force your grip)
Izinkan aku pergi dulu (Allow me to go first)Yang berubah hanya (The only thing that changes is)Tak lagi kumilikmu (I'm not yours anymore)Kau masih bisa melihatku (You can still see me)Kau harus percaya (You have to believe)Kutetap teman baikmu (That i am still your best friend)
Sudah coba berbagai cara (We've tried various way)Agar kita tetap bersama (To stay together)Yang tersisa dari kisah ini (The only thing that is left from this tale)Hanya kau takut kuhilang (Is just you being afraid of me missing)
Perdebatan apapun menuju kata pisah (Any arguments lead to parting words)Jangan paksakan genggamanmu (Don't force your grip)

Yang berubah hanya (The only thing that changes is)Tak lagi kumilikmu (I'm not yours anymore)
Kau harus percaya (You have to believe)Kutetap teman baikmu (That i am still your best friend)

Izinkan aku pergi dulu (Allow me to go first)Yang berubah hanya (The only thing that changes is)Tak lagi kumilikmu (I'm not yours anymore)Kau masih bisa melihatku (You can still see me)Kau harus percaya (You have to believe)Kutetap teman baikmu (That i am still your best friend)

It's great isn't it? Now, i'm going to share some of my thoughts about this song.
According to the lyrics, this song is about a couple that has a problem with their relationship. They have too many differences that they have to choice but to keep quarreling from time to time. They have tried so many ways to make it work but it always ended up in a fight. So, one of them decided to end their bond. And it is also told that they will still be friends, still can see each other and the only thing that changes is they aren't each other's anymore.
Trough out the song, sad and melancholy tones are played, but it somehow has energetic vibe. From the lyrics, we can see how sad the story that Tulus is trying to tell, but this song also has a consoling part in it.
Thus, i love this song because i like sad song in general; but this song can also cure the sadness of people who has similar story with the one in the lyrics.
I guess that's all i can tell you about my favourite song, thanks for stopping by!

Last Holiday

Hi! I'm gonna tell you a little bit about my holiday, i think it was around December. After the final exam ended and our report cards were given, holiday Came. Actually i was a little bit sad facing holiday this time, Because I did not really have any interesting plans to do and it was actually more fun to play with friends at school. But i just shrugged the feeling and counted this holiday as a break for me. at least, I would not be seeing this evil guy called 'homework' for a while.

I'm not really Able to recall the last holiday, I just remembered i slept in so many different places, like 5 days at my Grandma's place, and a week at my other Grandma's place, and the other at my friend's place. It was really fun Because I did not get much time to visit and interact with them on schooldays. Though, i did not get a chance to go out of town to meet my relatives there. I just stayed in Bandung but it was actually kinda worth it.

Things pretty much that i was doing in the holiday were just hanging out with my friends, going to school to practice angklung, and sleeping. It felt like I had memorized the mall's map completely. Though I was not bored at all, i was just bored of spending the money. I met some of my friends when it was the time to practice angklung. It was really really tiring but fun. Other than playing angklung, Also we learned to dance and sing.

To be honest, i have nothing else to say. Because just like i said, i did not do anything interesting. I mean, interesting enough for me to write a 10 pages long essay about every detail that had happened. I loved the holiday though Because I got a lot of rest, and i also remembered how I remembered to do the holiday homework just seconds before it ended lol.

I guess that's all? I'm gonna write more if i somehow recall any details about it:))

Education to Build a Better Future for All

 What is education? Education is a process to change us into something better. Ever since the first time humans populated the earth, we keep changing, developing ourselves and the world to be even better than before. Humans always discover new things and from there we learn something new, whether it is bad and we should avoid it or it is something good and we should learn more about it. Education has been given to us since we were little, wherein a child’s brain is like a sponge that will absorb the liquid that touches it. Therefore, our generation will be ready to lead human population in getting better.

In my opinion, education is the most important. Because without education we wouldn’t get a chance to develop ourselves, specifically our character. The key to the best generation is not only academical and theoritical knowledge, but also a wise and dependable character. Our generation has quite a lack on that, as far as I know, because we are depending to much on theories. On math, biology, physics, etc. we are too busy to improve our knowledge on science and technology, because ever since modern technology starts spreading, we realize that it brings so much benefit to our lives. But, in the progress, we are forgetting that knowledge is power, but character is more. We couldn’t make a good character theoritically. So, as for me, the ideal type of education is the education that teaches more about character developing. The education that teaches us about the condition of the world, and changes our mindset to be more openminded, critical, and educated. That way, I am sure that we will be able to reduce the number of wars going on in this world.


Unfortunately, most of the country in this world hasn’t realize yet about how important character building is. Schools are still using the system wherein the students have to take classes as they have been given, whether they like it or not. I think, that is the worst form of education. Students have a lot of different abilities. We can’t force a student who likes art to do a trigonometri equation.  We can’t force a student who likes math to draw a realistic potrait of theirselves. This kind of education will only reduce the student’s spirit to improve their abilities. As the result, their character will turn to a negative way and we will have the worst generation to lead the population.

I, myself, as a student, am hoping that the current education system will be changed. Especially in Indonesia. This beautiful country has so much potential and yet we still don't know how to use it in the lack of our character.
