Earth Hour '09!!!

Earth Hour 2009!


It's that time of the year again, guys! After an extremely, extremely successful EH 08, we will once again be "hosting" Earth Hour.

On March 28, 8:30pm your timezone, wherever you live on planet earth, simply switch off your lights for one hour!

For additional information click here;

Hope you will participate!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My personal notes:

I have no doubt, the first Earth Hour was a good opportunity to draw attention to the need for energy efficiency.. But then somehow I think that the spread of Earth Hour derivative events have turned it into an excuse for people to feel good about suspending their bad consumption habits for an hour, then starting them up again.. :( *sigh*

This year, beside turning our lights off for an hour, how about we also use Earth Hour as an opportunity to make a permanent change to our energy consumption habits. It's not gonna be easy.. But we can at least try.. Earth loves us sooo much, let's love it back a lil bit more.. ;)

sekarang tolong jelaskan..

kenapa saya harus membagi gelisah jiwa saya

pada sejalin ikatan yang simpulnya mengurai

pendar-pendar rasa yang terbawa angin

pada kata-kata saya

toh tak dapat terlihat oleh matanya yang nyalang

panas nafas saya yang menderu

pun tak dapat menyentuh lembut kulitnya

lantas kenapa saya harus terus meracau

melagukan risau, cita, dan perih

ketika risau saya tak tertangkap penglihatannya

ketika cita saya luput dari genggamannya

dan ketika perih saya tak tersentuh manis kecupnya

you know, it's almost like... .

It's almost like you had it planned
It's like you smiled and shook my hand and said
"Hey, I'm about to screw you over big time"
And what was I supposed to do?
I was stuck in between you and hard place
We won't talk about the hard place

But I don't blame you anymore
That's too much pain to store
It left me half dead
Inside my head
And boy, looking back I see
I'm not the girl I used to be
When I lost my mind
It saved my life

It's how you wanted it to be
It's like you played a joke on me
And I lost a friend
In the end
And I think that I cried for days
But now that seems light years away
And I'm never going back
To who I was

Cause I don't blame you anymore
That's too much pain to store
It left me half dead
Inside my head
And boy, looking back I see
I'm not the girl I used to be
When I lost my mind
It saved my life

I think that I cried for days
But now that seems light years away
And I'm never going back
To who I was

Cause I don't blame you anymore
That's too much pain to store
It left me half dead
Inside my head
And boy, looking back I see
I'm not the girl I used to be
When I lost my mind
It saved my life

That life seems like light years away
Light years away
And that life seems like light years away
Light years away

(Light Years Away - Mozella)


There is definitely no other song that can possibly describe it all as perfect as this one, don't you think?

ps. I HEART Mozella so so so so MUCH.. Her voice simply blows my mind!!!!

Pick another song, Cupcake!

Lihatlah sebuah titik jauh di tengah laut
Makin lama makin jelas
bentuk rupanya
Itulah kapal api yang sedang berlayar
Asapnya yang putih mengepul di udara
(Kapal Api)


That was one of my favorite songs as a kid.. Damn I'm getting more and more disturbed seeing children singing adult songs these days. The time will come, Kiddos, when you can sing any song about love (between a man and a woman), cheating, heartbreak, separation, you name it. Trust me, the time will eventually come. Until then, can you please pick another song that's much more appropriate for your age, Sweeties?? Mommies, Daddies, Nannies, anyone out there.. can you help them out??? THANK YOU!
