Ryosuke Yamada's Article Translation from Indonesia Magazine (Kawanku No. 96)

Animal Lover:

“I love animals so much. I love visiting the Zoo. Someday, if I have to live alone, I will definitely adopt a dog as a pet. I want to have toy dogs like a poodle or chihuahua. It doesn't matter either it's male or female. A cute animal will definitely make me melted. For my dear dog, because I am busy, I will be forced to let my mom taking care of you. It doesn’t mean I don’t love you anymore. I still love you, don’t worry. Please, keep being spoiled and stay cute.”

The Girl of My Love

Ryosuke has a deep point of view about falling in love. “Not being loved, but 'to love' is an emotion that we need to have. It will add more colors to your life. If I got my heart broken because of love, I still want to fall in love again. I believe that true love is not born from an easy relationship.” If Ryosuke has to describe the color of love, he chooses white. Love always starts with white which plains like a canvas. The color could change, it depends on what kind of girl he'd meet. Ryosuke wants to have his own color of love which specially created between him and the girl. Aww… so poetic.

Direct Confession

As a kind of boy who's always very straightforward when confessing love to a girl, he will confess directly. Ryosuke also wants the girl to be brave to confess directly to him so he will know her true feeling. A feminine and sweet girl is his ideal type of girl. “When we talk, she has to be able to make the situation feels comfortable. It would be better if she’s good at cooking. Whatever the menu is, as long as she makes it wholeheartedly, I will love it. She has to understand my job too because I probably can’t meet her very often. When I’m flirting (with her), I will always talk, laugh, and joke with her.” Said Ryosuke who confessed to a girl for the first time in kindergarten.

Anything for Girlfriend

“For my future girlfriend, someday I will tell her, ‘I am probably very loud when I talk and I am fussy too, but I promise that our life will be colorful.” In the morning, I want to be the first person who says ‘good morning’ to you. And at night, before sleep, although just for one minute, I want to hear her voice. Mostly boys are lazy to accompany their girlfriend to go shopping, but I will gladly do it. I will help her to choose the outfits which look good on her. If she asks me what color that suits her, I’ll choose it for her. Leave it all to me, hahaha. If we fight, I’m not afraid to apologize first. I’ll pinch her cheek while saying “I’m sorry…”. If she's still angry, I will find another way to change the situation. On her birthday, valentine, or our relationship anniversary, I will spend the whole day with her. I think all boys are willing to do that. I will give her an eternal present that she can treasure and keep forever.

Postingan dari McD Pasfes

Hey hey hey blog...

Gue sedang berada di McD Pasar Festival Kuningan sekarang. Beberapa saat yang lalu, sahabat gue Maulida, baru aja pulang setelah tiga jam lebih dia mengajari gue bahasa Arab. Besok ada UTS Arab, dan karena gue sangat sangat bodoh dalam pelajaran ini, gue membutuhkan seseorang yang nyaman untuk mengajarkan. Untungnya Maulida lumayan pinter dalam pelajaran ini, jadi gue bisa dengan nyaman belajar sama dia. Cukup banyak yang gue mengerti, lho. Mudah-mudahan aja besok nggak lupa pas ujiannya, amin!

Sekarang gue sendirian disini dan sedang mendownload beberapa video Hey!Say!JUMP, jadi sembari nunggu, gue iseng nulis di blog ini. Btw, ternyata enak juga ya sesekali menghabiskan waktu sendirian di luar rumah. Gue udah menghabiskan tiga gelas cokefloat selama tiga jam berada disini sendirian, dan belum juga merasa bosan. Doakan gue sukses UTS Bahasa Arab besok ya. Paling tidak, doakan agar gue nggak harus mengulang =.=

Itu aja kayaknya ya. Gue nggak tau lagi apa yang mau ditulis. Download-an gue juga baru aja selesai, jadi harus pulang sekarang. Jaa nee~

Yamada Taro Monogatari (Jdrama)

Haaai, there... blog!~

Rasanya udah cukup lama ya nggak menulis blog (baru juga seminggu lebih) haha akhir-akhir ini nggak ada waktu buat online di komputer. Anyway, sekarang gue datang dengan sebuah review mengenai dorama Jepang yang baru gue tonton, yaitu Yamada Taro Monogatari (Story of Yamada Taro) yang diangkat dari komik Jepang berjudul sama. Drama ini bukan drama terbaru. Keluarnya tahun 2007 dan salah satu drama yang hits di kalangan pecinta dorama Jepang sana, tapi gue baru menontonnya di 2011 (iya, gue tau gue selalu telat). Dorama ini dibintangi dua personil band nomor satu Johnny Entertainment, Arashi. They are Kazunari Ninomiya and Sho Sakurai. Okay, ayo kita masuk ke ceritanya.

Sakurai Sho and Ninomiya Kazunari from Arashi

Alkisah, terdapat sebuah SMA ternama dan unggulan bagi anak-anak dari keluarga mampu di Jepang, yaitu Ichinomiya Gakuin, yang di dalamnya terdapat sebuah kelas kehormatan untuk murid-murid istimewa yang terpilih. Taro Yamada (Kazunari Ninomiya), cowok super menawan yang cerdas dalam berbagai hal, mendapat beasiswa untuk bersekolah di SMA ini. Nilainya nomor satu di antara murid-murid yang masuk di kelas kehormatan tersebut. Nomor dua di bawahnya adala Mimura Takuya Mimura (Sho Sakurai) yang tidak kalah menawan dengan Yamada, pemuda yang selalu tampak tenang. Kedua cowok ini datang berbarengan dan beriringan secara kebetulan pada hari pertama sekolah, sehingga mereka terlihat seperti dua pangeran impian yang menarik perhatian semua murid di Ichinomiya. Seorang murid perempuan yang juga mendapat beasiswa di SMA Ichinomiya, Takako Ikegami (Mikako Tabe) langsung jatuh cinta pada pandangan pertama begitu melihat Yamada. Impian Takako adalah menikahi pemuda kaya raya agar bisa mengubah hidupnya yang berasal dari keluarga biasa saja. Takako langsung menetapkan target kepada Yamada yang memang berkarisma pangeran kaya. 

Yamada's Family

Faktanya, Taro Yamada amat sangat jauh dari kaya raya. Justru, ia berasal dari keluarga super duper miskin yang bahkan untuk makan sepiring berdelapan saja, Yamada harus bekerja paruh waktu di beberapa tempat. Yamada harus menghidupi enam adik dan satu ibu. Ayahnya bekerja sebagai pelukis petualang yang pulang sesekali setahun. Berbeda dengan Takuya Mimura, dia adalah sosok pangeran yang sebenarnya. Ia berasal dari keluarga kaya raya dan sangat berperilaku seperti pangeran. Belakangan, Mimura yang selama ini merasa kehidupannya membosankan, merasa tertarik dengan Yamada. Ia pun mengikuti Yamada hingga rumahnya dan sempat tertegun mendapati Yamada tinggal di sebuah rumah yang amat sangat kecil. Jauh berbeda dari kastil besar yang dibayangkan murid-murid di sekolahnya. Tentu saja, Yamada tidak pernah bilang kalau dia adalah anak dari keluarga kaya, namun teman-teman di sekolahnya tak pernah benar-benar mendengarkannya setiap kali Yamada ingin menceritakan kehidupan miskinnya. Mereka terlalu sibuk mengomentari kehidupan kaya raya Yamada yang ada di bayangan mereka. 

Yamada adalah anak yang sangat bertanggung jawab dan menomorsatukan keluarganya. Segala pekerjaan yang dia lakukan selalu didasarkan pikiran ingin membahagiakan adik-adiknya yang banyak. Yamada rela bekerja siang malam demi membelikan adik-adiknya sepotong daging untuk dibagi bersama-sama. Bagi Yamada, senyum keluarganya adalah mimpinya, karena itu ia selalu bekerja keras demi bisa membawakan keluarganya makanan, meski cuma sedikit. Yamada juga rela bekerja keras demi memenuhi keinginan adiknya yang ingin berenang di hotel, membayarkan biaya team baseball untuk salah satu adiknya yang terpilih sebagai pemain, dan banyak lagi. Dan Yamada melakukan semua itu tanpa merasa terbebani sedikitpun. Hal ini membuat Mimura kagum. Baginya, kehidupan Yamada yang super miskin itu menarik untuk dilihat. Ia merasa heran, iri, sekaligus kagum karena keluarga Yamada selalu tampak bahagia dalam keadaan apapun. Kedua 'pangeran' ini pun menjadi sahabat.

Peran Takako Ikegami juga tak bisa dilupakan. Gadis sederhana yang sangat enerjik ini memang penuh dengan mimpi menjadi kaya raya dan hanya memikirkan uang, karena itu saat ia mengetahui bahwa Yamada ternyata berasal dari keluarga miskin, Takako sempat menyerah dan berusaha mencari 'pangeran' penggantinya. Tapi, kebaikan dan ketulusan Yamada terhadap segala hal membuat Takako jatuh cinta sungguhan. Meski bayang-bayang kemiskinan Yamada selalu mengganggunya, toh Takako tetap tidak bisa berhenti menyukai Yamada. Mimura sendiri merasa senang melihat Takako yang mengejar-ngejar Yamada seperti orang aneh. Baginya, Takako dan Yamada seperti tokoh menarik yang ada di film. Ia ingin menjadi 'produser' mereka. Hanya masalah waktu saja hingga ketiganya menjadi tiga sekawan. 

Drama ini bukan kisah cinta cowok dan cewek di SMA. Seperti biasa, Jepang mengangkat cinta ke dalam tema yang lebih luas dari itu. Menonton dorama ini membuat kita berpikir banyak mengenai keluarga kita sendiri dan apa yang bisa kita lakukan untuk memberi mereka kebahagiaan. Kita jadi belajar untuk menghargai rezeki sekecil apapun dan mensyukuri kebahagiaan sekecil apapun. Berapa besar perjuangan yang akan kita lakukan demi orang yang berharga bagi kita, dan persahabatan ketiga kandidat ini pun juga sangat menarik untuk dilihat. Bahwa kita bisa menciptakan kebahagiaan nggak melulu dari materi. Hal kecil seperti berbagi sepotong makanan ke orang yang berharga bagi kita saja bisa menjadi kebahagiaan yang tak terkira. Pokoknya, drama ini recommended bangetlah. 

Well, that's all I have. I hope you guys enjoy the review. Jaa nee~

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOTHERS OF AROMA!

Bunda and Mami

So, today, April 5 in 2011 is the birthday of two mothers in Aroma, Dewi Apriliani and Fitri Suhada. What a great coincidence, hahaha... This is really interesting for me. Two mothers: Bunda Dewi and Mami Fitri. Yes, Aroma has two beautiful mothers, something that we can be proud of, probably, hahaha. Thanks, Bunda for taking care of all of us and guide us the right way, for always cook us so many delicious foods (your cooking is one of the best in the world), for being such a great mother because I know it's not easy to take care of Aroma which filled with so many absurd people (including you two), hehe. And for Mami Fitri, thanks for being such a cool mother who always joins us in doing many silly things, who always teach us math (although I never can understand because I really don't like that lesson -_-)... Hmm, writing this has brought me back to the old times when we were still mabiters. You two are two weird combinations yet you two were chosen to be our mothers, wasn't that strange and cool at the same time? Hehehe I love you guys, Bunda and Mami. May Allah always is with you (I'm sure He will), hopefully, all of us and Aroma will have a chance to gather together again. Ahh... This is so nostalgic, now I remember all the good/bad times we've ever had. Anyway, HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOTHERS! For Bunda, stay strong, stay beautiful, and do your best in your college. For Mami, don't eat too much noodles, you'll break your tummies. Eat more healthy foods. For you two, please, don't ever get tired of being mothers of Aroma. We love you! 

One Day in Application of Computer Class

Right now, I'm in the middle of the Application of Computer lessons and it is soooo boring so I decided to write a bit here. I have some news to share: do you know that Miley Cyrus has a new Twitter account? It's @mileycyrus. Yes, It's her real account after she deleted her old Twitter. She said she wants to make a promotion for her upcoming concert via this account so if you miss Miley's tweets, just follow her. I already did. Though I'm not sure this will be permanent. I think she will delete it after she finished her tour. Now, news about Japan. Johnny's Association makes a charity activity with their boys like Arashi, Hey!Say!Jump, NEWS, KAT-TUN, etc to help Japan recover after the earthquake and Tsunami's attack last March. I really hope they will recover soon. And I'm so sorry about Hikaru Yaotome's house which had destroyed by the earthquake but thank goodness that his family is safe. I wish everyone who was affected by the earthquake and tsunami will recover soon. 

Oh, I'm sorry I haven't been able to edit and post a new chapter of Teh Tarik by @d_naderian on her blog. I'm so busy these days and it's kinda hard to find some time to write.  Btw, right beside me now, Mela is writing on her blog too. She's very good at writing. I suggest you guys check her out in her blog, http://mellayusuf.blogspot.com/, and be amazed! Today. I also introduced her to some videos and songs from Hey!Say!Jump. She likes it and fell in love immediately with Ryosuke Yamada and Yuri Chinen, as I expected hahaha. Hmm... If I want to be a good student, I supposed to listen to what my lecturer says right now about Mic. PowerPoint and stuff but I'm too lazy, and really hungry so I can't focus. Look, I'm looking for some excuse. I really want to go home. Hmm... I'll catch you guys later, jaa nee~

Happy Birthday Haruma Miura.... 
May all the best go with you 
Stay awesome and stay bright! =D

Star Time - Hey!Say!JUMP (Lyric and Translation)

Toki wa hito ni nani wo

Time is trying

Ima tsugeyou to shiteru

To tell people something right now

Mamoru beki wa kono sumiwataru sora

What we should be caring for is this perfectly clear sky

Bokura ryoute wo hirogeteru

We are spreading out our arms

Inochi wo hagukunda

We are bringing up our lives

Ano aoi umi wo mite

We look at that blue sea

Negai tachi wa mata

Our dreams

Kaze ni michibikareru mama

Are still guided by the breeze again

Sougen wo kakete yuku

They will run through the fields

Meguri aeta toki wo omou

When I think of the time we met

Onaji kisetsu mezameru you ni

It’s like I’m waking up to that same season

Hateshinai itoshisa wa 

An endless loveliness

Kono kokoro ni tashika ni umareru

Was born for real in my heart

Kagayaki no hitotsu to shite bokura wa

We are just one of many sparkles

Hoshi tachi no shita de rekishi wo kizamu

We sketch out history under the stars

Hikaru mono mitsukeru

I find something that shines

Sou, kimi no hitomi ni mo

Yes, it’s in your eyes

Sono kami ni mo, hora

And in your hair, look!

Itsumo mabushi souna me de

Your eyes always seem so bright

Hohoende kureru ne

And they are always smiling

Kimi no namae sotto yobou

I will softly call our your name

Haruka kanata kioku no you ni

Like a memory in the distant beyond

Tomedonaku afuredasu 

My endless stream of emotions

Kono omoi wa niji wo koete yuku

Will go over the rainbow

Yakusoku no basho wa soko ni aru to

They are always telling us

Bokutachi ni itsumo oshiete iru

That our promised place is there

Itsu no hi ka tadoritsukeru sono toki wo

Someday we may struggle

Yume ni egaki tsuzuketeru

We will continue to paint that time in our dreams

Atarashii sekai wa sono manazashi no

A new world is right in front of our eyes

Saki ni aru saa ikou Oh yeah

So let’s go, oh yeah

Hateshinai itoshisa wa 

An endless loveliness

Kono kokoro ni tashika ni umareru

Was born for real in my heart

Kagayaki no hitotsu to shite bokura wa

We are just one of many sparkles

Hoshi tachi no shita de rekishi wo kizamu

We sketch out history under the stars

Tomedonaku afuredasu 

My endless stream of emotions

Kono omoi wa niji wo koete yuku

Will go over the rainbow

Yakusoku no basho wa soko ni aru to

They are always telling us

Bokutachi ni itsumo oshiete iru

That our promised place is there

Hoshi tachi no shita de rekishi wo kizamu

We sketch out history under the stars

Hoshi tachi no shita de rekishi wo kizamu

We sketch out history under the stars

Happy Birthday, Okamoto Keito! Shine More...

Today is April Fool Day... but it doesn't mean that this birthday's post is another trick to fool you out x) Today belongs to Keito Okamoto's birthday... That talented guitarist from Hey! Say! JUMP and one of my favorite members. Boy, you've turned 18 now. This year is definitely belong to you. You will graduate from High School and you finally get your first lead role in the drama. Kinpachi Sensei, as a delinquent. Whoaaaahhhh...

I'm so glad that you finally get a chance to shine because Johnny really needs to give you a chance to fly. Hahaha... anyway, you sure have changed a lot. The first time I saw you, you look awkward. But hey, I was wrong. You look more gentle and gentle as you grow up and when I saw you play your guitar in the SUMMARY concert, I know that you're not just an ordinary boy. You're extraordinary and I must admit that I finally fall for you...

Btw, I heard that you plan to go to university after graduating from high school, just like Inoo-chan, so I wish you tons of luck. I'm so proud of you, Keito. Please, shine more, and may all the best go with you~
