Superman (It's Not Easy)


Superman (It's Not Easy)

I can’t stand to fly
I’m not that naive
I’m just out to find
The better part of me

I’m more than a bird
I’m more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It’s not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I’ll never see

It may sound absurd
But don’t be naive
Even heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed
But won’t you concede
Even heroes have the right to dream
It’s not easy to be me

Up, up and away
Away from me
It’s all right
You can all sleep sound tonight
I’m not crazy
Or anything

I can’t stand to fly
I’m not that naive
Men weren’t meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I’m only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me

It’s not easy to be me

Sung by Five For Fighting

This song is perfect. Di saat semua orang berharap terlalu banyak, aku menyadari bahwa aku hanya manusia biasa. Banyak yang tak bisa aku lakukan sendiri. Tapi aku ingin memenuhi semua keinginan dan harapan semua orang padaku. But, the most important thing is, I proud by myself.

Dance With My Father


Back when I was a child
Before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high
And dance with my mother and me and then


Spin me around till I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure
I was loved


If I could get another chance
Another walk, another dance with him
I'd play a song that would never, ever end
How I'd love, love, love to dance with my father again


Ooh, ooh


When I and my mother would disagree
To get my way I would run from her to him
He'd make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah, yeah
Then finally make me do just what my mama said


Later that night when I was asleep
He left a dollar under my sheet
Never dreamed that he
Would be gone from me


If I could steal one final glance
One final step, one final dance with him
I'd play a song that would never, ever end
'Cause I'd love, love, love to dance with my father
again


Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
And I'd hear her, mama cryin� for him
I pray for her even more than me
I pray for her even more than me


I know I'm prayin' for much too much
But could You send back the only man she loved
I know You don�t do it usually
But Lord, she's dyin' to dance with my father again
Every night I fall asleep
And this is all I ever dream

Sung by Luther Vandross, Celine Dion

I really miss my dad. Saat-saat seperti ini aku sangat merindukan papa tercinta. Aku merindukan suaranya, kemarahannya, gaya berjalannya, aromanya parfumnya, suara penyemangatnya. He teached me everything i know, kiss my cheek when i'll go to sleep, take me ride to school, go fishing in the weekend, become my no. 1 fan, and many things. Now, i only meet him in my dream, its not real, but i'll always pray for you dad.

Ibu-ibu Indonesia Itu baik yah...



Through the years


After years of expensive education

A car full of books and anticipation

I can't believe it's over

I watched the whole thing fall

And I never saw the writing that was on the wall

The days were slipping past

That the good things never last

Things have seem to changed

I can't remember how it started and if it lasted that day in the sun

Schoolbag in hand, I leaves home in the early morning

I said that I were going to study hard

Held my books instead of hands

I can't deny I was so full of fear

Tough, I think I've got the stuff

And it's me when I look in the mirror

And it's me when I don't pick up the phone

But sometimes, I can't make it on my own

I walked across an empty land

I knew the pathway like the back of my hand

I felt the earth beneath my feet

Sat by the river and it made me complete

Im nothing special, in fact Im a bit of a bore

If I tell a joke, you’ve probably heard it before

But I have a talent, a wonderful thing

That make anyone happy

This is my life

Round, like a circle in a spiral

Like a wheel within a wheel

Never ending or beginning

Like a snowball down a mountain

Like a carousell that's turning

Running rings around the moon

Through the years...

Hope Floats



Starring : Sandra Bullock (Birdie Pruit), Harry Connick Jr (Justin Matisse), Mae Whitman (Bernice Pruitt)

Sinopsis:
Cheated by your own bestfriend. Birdie Pruitt kembali ke tanah kelahirannya setelah affair suaminya dengan teman baik Birdie disiarkan di TV nasional. Jadi, semua orang di kampung halamannya tahu kejadian yang memalukan itu. Birdie harus kembali membangun kehidupannya dengan membawa anak satu-satunya, Bernice Pruitt, yang yaikin suatu saat akan dijemput bapaknya. Tidak semudah membalikkan telapak tangan untuk kembali ke kampung halaman, dimana dia dulu adalah wanita paling populer dan ratu kecantikan di Smithville. Sayangnya dia tidak punya keahlian apa-apa sehingga susah untuk mendapatkan pekerjaan. Back to reality gals! Tapi dia punya bapak yang hebat, ibu yang menyenangkan, anak yang cerdas, keponakan yang lucu, orang yang mencintainya sejak masa SMU (Justin Matisse) dan teman-teman yang pada akhirnya bisa menerima Birdie yang sekarang. Akhirnya dia menyadari bahwa dia harus melepaskan masa lalu, menatap ke masa depan dengan orang-orang yang menyayanginya apa adanya.

Memorable moment:
Bernice Pruitt merengek - rengek ingin tinggal dengan ayahnya, tetapi ayahnya tidak ingin membawanya dengan alasan bahwa ia ingin berdua saja dengan calon istri barunya. (What a father!!!)

Komentarku:
Kasih ibu memang tak ada batasnya. Dia bakal melakukan apa saja untuk melihat anaknya bahagia. Seperti ibu Birdie yang selalu menyemangati Birdie untuk melupakan suaminya, kembali menata hidup, bahkan berkencan dengan orang lain. Birdie kepada Bernice, yang tahu bagaimana menghiburnya setelah digencet teman sekolah, membuat surat yang seolah-olah berasal dari bapaknya hanya karena tahu Bernice menginginkan itu.

Dikhianati teman baikmu sendiri?Semoga hal ini tidak akan pernah terjadi pada kita. Karena teman baik adalah teman yang ingin melihat kita bahagia, bukan menusuk dari belakang.
Sebagai seorang perempuan kita harus punya keahlian, jadi kita akan mudah diterima di mana saja. Jangan jadi perempuan biasa saja!
