When i'm really being me. Personally. Completely. Just… me.

Teenage Life

Really, it was really sweet.
All our time together, friends..
I learned so many new things

That day i could feel the heat.
All of them watched, our friends..
When we fought over silly things

I know you guys remember.
Those days in that little village of beautiful memory.
It was fun just like summer.
And the heartache that makes me feel sorry.

Everything’s so good now
We’ve grown apart but we’re still friends
Listening to this song somehow
Reminds me of those drawing of our pens

Sweet sweet 16
Sweet sweet 17
Yeah we are all in love
Just like a flying dove

We felt free
Sitting that night under a tree
Five of us were looking at the stars
Running away with our cars

Today we dont feel that much
Of craziness of a touch
That teenage life can bring
But we’re still singing

Our song deep in our hearts
When that song starts..
Grown up life will be forgotten
As snow of memories again have fallen

We remember those days sweet as candy
We remember those nights we laugh wildly
We remember those poetries we wrote beautifully
Of us.

We remember,
always will remember.

Not only you’ve made me learn to sing with my voice,
but also you’ve made me learn to sing with my soul.

Dad,
Tears have become a sweet smile
Realizing u’ve been gone now for a while
Endless melody is what i can hear
From the courage in me that used to be fear

Didi,
A man much smarter and stronger than me
A brother bigger and wiser to be
Deep deep love i have for you
Keep in mind you know it’s true

Lyssa,
It’s rainbow after the rain
It’s sunset after the day
Laughing hard with you brings me stomach pain
Amazed forever by your wonderfulness is what i can say

My bestfriends,
You guys made my life so fun and meaningful
This day i realize i am still so grateful
That i am so lucky, for God had sent me
A true friendship forever will be

Ben my husband,
I knew you’d be the one
Since i saw you in day one
Your love lingers in my veins
You’re the reason why my life has change
Never i saw a human, shine the way you do
Never would i ever, walk away from you

God
This life and everything in it,
The chances you have given me again and again,
To live and feel your love every minute,
To die and be with you in heaven hopefully is the end of this movie of life playin,
Alhamdulillah, you’ve opened my eyes
Alhamdulillah, you’ve showed me the true color of the skies
Let me show my happiness
On this birthday i feel nothing but gratefulness.

Forever i will try to live every single day
I promise i will always be this way
He
Everytime i will walk with love and passion
With my heart and soul i will share my creation

May i have another meaningful birthday,
:)

A Little Letter for My Dad

How are you today.. Where are you right at this time. Are you fine? Hope you are.

I know we’ve never met again, since that day. I was supposed to hurt. Cos of what you did. What you asked. But I wasn’t. I understand. We understand. Even though now you’re not around. I still think of you sometimes.

In this little letter I just want you to know. That I’ve grown so much. And I am happy now, Dad. I’ve accepted the fact that you’re gone. And I am fine. Although I still care, but I understand and I accept that I never get to smell your scent. A scent of the man im suppose to adore. A father of mine..

In this little letter I just wanna tell you. That I’ve become a better person, than I was two years ago. Running around with you, asking this and that…never accepted what happened and wanted u to come back. Now I don’t.

I’m glad..
I knew you for the first 6 years of my life. You are the best warmest thing I know living in my childhood memory. Before that war begun. But it’s ok. Because forever that’s what makes me grown so much, so big, so strong.

I’m glad…
That you weren’t there to say goodbye to me, ever. Cos that’s what makes me realize, that you are that person. You’re not the man I know in my dreams, you’re different. But I’m okay with that

I’m glad…
That u left. Cos u’ve taught me SO MUCH. Of love, of hate, of anger, grief, and Forgiveness. And this maturity would never be mine if it weren’t for you who’ve made my life so colorful.

Thank you…
For loving me long time ago
For remembering me now as your daughter
I don’t need you to love me. Cos I’m not sure you do. It’s ok. I swear it’s ok.
Cos I still thank u.
For leaving me and for just being you.
I love u,

Dad..

Excited For Marshanda Universe!!!

Assalamualaikum wrwrb,

Long time no see!!! Sadly, it has been almost 8 months since the last time i updated my blog. Blog saya kosong plong, hanya beberapa comments baru yang masuk ke sini dari minggu ke minggu untuk saya approve without new updates. Dan jadinya sepi yah..

But that’s about to change! Right now i am filled with this excitement about my latest project. Which is my official website!! How did it start? Well, tadinya sebetulnya saya mau bikin sebuah video profile, semacam showreel tentang diri saya sendiri. And then i met a friend of mine that was going to help me create this video profile. His name is Greg, and then he came up with this brilliant, interesting idea of making a website instead! Well, i welcomed his idea and we started to have meetings to talk about the web designs and other stuff. The interesting part for me was when Greg interviewed me and asking things like, “kalo elo adalah seekor binatang, akan jadi binatang apakah itu?” And, “what colors do you like the most?” “Tell me 3 words that represents your personality”, off course all the answers will be illustrated into the website design. Interesting isn’t it!

The other thing i haven’t told you is, this website is only made within two straight weeks. And it was activated in August 1st. My early birhtday gift! Ulang tahun saya tanggal 10 Agustus ngomong-ngomong kalau anda belum tahu. :) So in two weeks, Greg sent me the raw design of a few pages of the web via email and i gave him the approval. So, long story short. Voila! The web that is called Marshanda Universe is activated. And amazing things start to happen. Within 5 days we reach 6.000 numbers of visitor! And this web is only promoted through my twitter. No press conference, no media help. I’m not showing off. I’m just telling this ‘cos i am so happy and grateful that the support from my fans, Shanity, has always been soo wonderful. That in just 5 days we reach that many visitor numbers.

Off course the website is not 100% done. In terms of contents, there will be new updates that’s uploaded daily by Greg and his team, which is made, chosen, and determined together with me. What is interesting in Marshanda Universe is the daily video updates personally made and uploaded by me myself. Jadi saya akan upload minimum satu video setiap hari yang akan bisa ditonton oleh web visitors. Video tentang kegiatan saya sehari-hari, di lokasi shooting, di rumah, sebelum tidur, baru bangun tidur, di backstage saat konser, saat rekaman, dan lain-lain. Dan website saya ini juga akan di link ke blog saya ini. Layout dari website saya ini juga dapat terbilang cukup unik karena berbeda dari kebanyakan website Indonesia lainnya (setahu saya).

Intinya, i am soo happy and excited untuk terus mengembangkan Marshanda Universe agar contentnya semakin lengkap dan semakin menarik, sebetulnya ada target tertentu yang ingin saya raih bersama Greg dari website ini. Yaitu mencapai 1.000.000 visitors dalam waktu kurang dari 6 bulan. Well, we’ll see!

So for you guys, and all of you Shanity, WAJIB buka Marshanda Universe!! Heheehee. Dan video pertama yang akan saya upload disitu adalah sebuah video yang saya tujukan untuk semua true Shanity di luar sana. I love you all, truly. Hope this website would make you guys happy just like how it makes me.

Wassalam wrwrb.
