Untuk tahun 2012 ini gw dapet 2 kejutan di hari ulang tahun gw. Yang pertama dari temen-temen SMA gw: Olin, Nita, & Nia. Yang kedua dari 2 temen kuliah gw: Veli & Karina. HAPPY!!
Gw janjian ketemuan sama Nita, Olin, dan Nia di Botani Square jam 11. Awalnya gw cuman berdua sama Nita di Lotteria, tapi tiba-tiba Olin & Nia dateng bawa kue dan mereka nyanyi lagu Happy Birthday buat gw.
Setelah tiup lilin dan potong kue, kami ngobrol-ngobrol sebentar lalu makan siang di restoran Ta Wan. Lagi makan siang, tiba-tiba nyokap nelfon dan nanya kapan gw pulang. Ternyata eh ternyata 2 temen kuliah gw dateng ke rumah tiba-tiba. hihi.. ^^ *senang tapi merasa bersalah juga karena mereka dateng pas gw ga ada.*
Akhirnya setelah makan siang singkat, gw langsung pulang sama kakak gw. Begitu sampe rumah, mereka langsung heboh pake topi ulang tahun plus nyanyi lagu happy birthday *bahkan bokap gw sampe nyiapin keyboard buat dimainin sama Veli* Jadi, gw tiup lilin lagi dan make a wish lagi. hihi^^
Senangnya ulang tahun gw kali ini, sahabat gw sms pas jam 12 malem, kejutan dari temen-temen SMA dan temen-temen kuliah, telfon dari sahabat gw di Finlandia. Agak sedih sih karena ga bisa ngerayain bareng-bareng karena waktu yang tidak memungkinkan. :(
Terima kasih Tuhan karena sudah memberikan keluarga dan teman-teman yang amat sangat berharga. Semoga di umur 22 ini, gw semakin dewasa dan yang pasti selalu bersyukur dengan semua yang udah ada. Semoga gw bisa menemukan dan mencapai cita-cita hidup gw. :)

S P Y (Review)
Setelah sibuk promosi lagu Sexy, Free, & Single selama 1 bulan kemarin, Super Junior merilis follow up song* untuk album ke 6 mereka. Judulnya: SPY.
Yaaa..musiknya semacam soundtracknya James Bond-007. Sesuai judulnya, lagu ini bercerita seputar mata-mata dan juga wanita.
MV SPY ini dirilis terlambat . Seharusnya MV keluar saat SuJu belum promosi di acara-acara musik semacam M!Countdown dan Music Core, nyatanya MV ini baru keluar sehari setelah masa promosi minggu pertama mereka di TV. Berdasarkan informasi yang beredar di twitter dan jejaring sosial lainnya, MV ini sempet ga lulus sensor. Katanya ada scene dimana layar berwarna merah (sepertinya ilustrasi dari darah), yang mana scene itu katanya dianggap dapat mempengaruhi keadaan psikologis penontonnya *psikolog mana yang ngomong macam gini sih?* Setelah diliat-liat memang ga ada scene dengan layar merah seperti waktu di teasernya, sepertinya diganti dengan tetesan-tetesan darah.
Oke, mari kita mulai dengan reviewnya.. :)
Pertama, secara keseluruhan gw suka sama lagu ini, sejak teasernya keluar tepatnya. Genre macam ini termasuk beda dibanding lagu-lagu Super Junior lainnya yang dijadiin lagu andalan di tiap albumnya (di album ke-5 kemaren, ada lagu sejenis ini yang judulnya Be My Girl & Feels Good). Lagunya catchy, walaupun ada beberapa lirik yang terbilang aneh.
Kalo dari segi MV, hmm.. dari 5 bintang gw kasih 3,5 lah. Alasannya karena ini MV mirip banget sama A-Cha (follow up song album ke-5). Warnanya cuman seputaran hitam-putih dan hanya menekankan dance group & individual shoot. Boring. :|
Ah, gw suka banget sama outfit mereka di MV ini: tuksedo dan kacamata hitam! COOL! MV ini mengesankan Super Junior sebagai boyband yang sudah dewasa, mencerminkan umur mereka yang udah di atas 24 tahun semua. *walaupun kadang kelakuannya masih kayak idol-idol remaja, agak-agak dorky gitu* :))
Nilai plus yang gw kasih di sini adalah koreografinya. Koreografernya sih brilian banget. MV ini kebantu banget sama koreografinya. Dimulai dari atraksinya halang rintangnya KyuHyun, perubahan KyuHyun jadi RyeoWook di baris kedua lagu, dan pergerakan masing-masing anggota selayaknya seorang mata-mata. Pokoknya semua gerakan yang ada di lagu ini menurut gw keren!
Untuk koreografi lengkapnya, silahkan nonton video saat mereka tampil di SBS Inkigayo hari minggu kemarin :)
Dua hal yang gw ga suka dari MV ini:
1) rambutnya JungSoo! Stylistnya punya dendam apa sih? Kenapa rambutnya Leeteuk harus begini? T^T
2) Gw benci sama siluet-siluet wanita ga jelas yang ada di MV ini. -__-" Oke, gw tau lagu ini bercerita tentang laki-laki yang mengejar cinta seorang perempuan, tapi ya ga harus gini juga kali siluet perempuannya?! maaf ya, tapi ini kesannya perempuannya penggoda banget dan ga pantes dikejar-kejar gitu deh *apalagi dikejar anggota Super Junior*
Well, overall lagu dan MV Super Junior yang SPY ini dapet 4 dari 5 bintang dengan pertimbangan ide lagu yang fresh dan koreografi yang brilian tapi eksekusi MV yang agak mengecewakan.

*follow up song adalah lagu yang dipromosikan setelah lagu utama dari album selesai dipromosikan. Follow up song umumnya dirilis melalui album repackage.

to not choose is also a choice
Pada akhirnya kamu akan sadar bahwa kamu selama ini berdiri di sebuah persimpangan jalan. Bingung menentukan arah. Memilih itu sebuah proses dilema yang panjang, kadang kasusnya akan seperti ketika ditanya: "Kamu lebih mencintai Ayah atau Ibu?" 엄마가 좋아? 아빠가 좋아? Kamu tidak bisa memilih salah satunya karena dua-duanya sama pentingnya. Namun, seringkali kamu harus memilih salah satu dari pilihan yang ada. Kamu tidak bisa memiliki semuanya. Ketika saat itu datang, kamu mengharapkan bantuan dari orang sekitarmu, tapi pada akhirnya bantuan itu hanya ilusi semata. Percayalah, pilihan akhir hanya ada di tangan kamu, bukan di tangan siapapun di dunia ini. Ini hidupmu, jalanmu yang harus kamu pilih.
Memilih sebuah jalan sama saja dengan memilih resiko yang muncul karena tidak memilih jalan lain.
to not choose is also a choice. Today too, I continue to choose.

Airbag
I need an airbag
Before I hit the great sadness that approaches
On nights that I don't want to go home,
The taxi driver only avoids the shortcuts
On the radio, the DJ and the guests who laugh too easily just talk
They don't play music and the conversation gets longer
Usually, I don't like listening to that so I would've asked to change the station
But whatever, there isn't a song that I want to listen to anyway
They keep blabbing so my thoughts are on mute
Laughter bursts from words that I don't pay attention to
Seeing as how even the stone-faced taxi driver starts to laugh
I guess it's a popular saying that is trending these days
Perhaps I'm the only island
Afterwards, someone introduces a requested song
A sad song that I used to really like at one point
I wonder if that person is alone as well
In a place where a long day can rest
I need an airbag
Before I hit the great sadness that approaches
I need an airbag
It's too late to avoid it
There are so many things to take care of these days
I can't even get properly drunk
But it's not like I avoid drinking sessions
Maybe it's because I don't want to be alone
Or is it because I want it to be obvious that I want to be alone?
Loneliness is a common thing to me
Will I be able to share myself if there was someone by my side?
It's a question mark that I don't want to place at the end
But to my relief, I hear a loud voice on the phone
I guess the taxi driver's plans for drinking have been canceled
He hangs up the phone and grumbles, as if he's mad
My eyes linger on the family photo taped above the meter
I wonder if the reason for this wandering is because
There is no home, or there is nowhere to go
Or is it that there are lots of places to go
But no one to wait for me?
I guess I'm all alone again
I'm dangerous right now
Don't crash into me
I don't know since when it started to fall
But at some point, I look out the window
And as if it's been raining for a while,
There are puddles on the street floor
Reflected in those puddles, I see a neon billboard for car accidents
Right then, why am I remembering you, who is probably doing well right now
Why are tears forming?
The number "1" next to the word "Death:" seems so lonely
On this night where I long for you
The rain comes and my heart gets slippery
I need you, yes I need you, my airbag
I guess I'm all alone again
Once again
I guess I'm all alone again
Not again
