Anggun - 'La Javanaise' Live

Anggun performing Serge Gainsbourg's 'La Javanaise' at an accoustic session with French television TV5 Monde.

Anggun is an Indonesian singer,
definitely is a diva back there,
and moved abroad once she married to a French guy.

Anyway, enjoy!!!

J'avoue j'en ai bave pas vous mon amour
Avant d'avoir eu vent de vous mon amour
Ne vous deplaise
En dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions
Le temps d'une chanson

A votre avis qu'avons-nous vu de l'amour
De vous a moi vous m'avez eu mon amour
Ne vous deplaise
En dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions
Le temps d'une chanson

Helas avril en vain me voue a l'amour
J'avais envie de voir en vous cet amour
Ne vous deplaise
En dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions
Le temps d'une chanson

La vie ne vaut d'etre vecue sans amour
Mais c'est vous qui l'avez voulu mon amour
Ne vous deplaise
En dansant la Javanaise
Nous nous aimions
Le temps d'une chanson

Eat Pray Love


I've heard about this book since a long time ago, from friends and when i get to any bookstore at that time..
but it is not until when I watched a movie with my BF when i saw the trailer for its movie..

and guess whos staring the movie?
Julia Roberts
~the most old looking but stunning woman in Hollywood~
hahaha..

anyway,
i asked my friend who's suppose to be on vacation back there in Indo,
to buy me the book,
the one trasnlated to Indonesian already (lazy lazy lazy)
but seems like this book is out of stock anywhere..

so, just yesterday when i got my tutor training in Clayton,
i saw a bazaar in the common lawn,
and one of the stall is selling old and rare books..
not that im expecting anything to get my interest from it,
but then i saw the "eat pray love" book on the corner of his stall..
i asked him, and he said "RRP $25, for you i give $15..
and once you finished, and lets say its in same condition, you can sell it again to me, for $7.."
and he smiled..

oh.. i wont sell it back to you..
but yes, i buy the book because:
1. its cheaper
2. his smile is so warm and he looks nice
3. i feel like the book is destined to be sell to me

so far im up to page 47 out of 345..
and here's is the trailer..
hope i can finish it before i watch it..

Gratitude in Life


Today i feel extremely good..
everything i see is fun and happiness,
and i feel the gratitude in life..
why?

no particular reason,
i surprisingly woke up quite late this morning,
it was 8am (yes, im such a grannie now, 8am is considered late already for me)
and as agreed before, me and BF has decided to go swimming..
Things to be grateful for: i have such a wonderful BF who is supportive enough to keep me healthy and manage to help my diet program

but i just cant get my head off the pillow..
i did not want to swim just yet..
i wanted to cook some brekky.. =D

so i managed to get my BF to wait for a while,
let him browse around Youtube from his iphone,
this is enough to keep him distracted, haha
(i really think that Youtube change his life a lot, in a good way~)
Things to be grateful for: everyone is happy -
me: happy cooking ; him: happy browsing

while im cooking some pancake, yay...

i bought a lot of groceries few days ago,
up to $35 i guess,
including pancake powder and marple syrup,
and i got to pay nothing..
i used the gift card i had from helping in the Monash Open Day around last week
Things to be grateful for: happily shopping without having to pay one single cent of it

then, after making up to 14stacks of pancakes,
i leave around 6 for my housemate and her BF,
and ate the rest for me and my BF..
Things to be grateful for: i luv sharing happiness, and i hope my housemate likes the pancake =)

so,
hit the gym (correction: swimming),
chit chat and last,
sauna time
Things to be grateful for: nothing beats the feeling of being healthy together with your loved ones

then we went to city,
hanging around,
visit the State Library for the first time for almost 4years leaving in Australia,
Things to be grateful for: got the chance to actually witness the beauty of such an old and heritage building
went to church,
met old friends,
had dinner,
and now off to bed really soon
Things to be grateful for: i can sleep with a smile hanging on my face for this awesome week

gratitude in life..
xoxo

Kesha - Hungover

Nope, im not having a hungover..
but i do think this song is a w e s o m e
and she deserved to be publish here,
hahahaha...

anyway, this is the only song that i actually can say that she is actually singing
(*geez what a long sentence)
enjoyyyy


And now the sun is rising
And now the long walk back home (back home)
There's just so many faces,
But no one I need to know (need to know)

In the dark I can't fight it, I fake til I'm numb
But in the bright light,
I taste you on my tongue

Now the party's over
And every bodys gone
I'm left here with myself and I wonder what went wrong
And now my heart is broken
Like the bottles on the floor
Does it really matter?
Or am I just hung over you?
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah
Or am I just hungover?

Even my dirty laundry
Everything just smells like you (like you)
And now my head is throbbing
Every song is out of tune
Just like you

In the dark I can't fight it til it disapears
But in the daylight
I taste you in my tears

And now the party's over,
And every bodys gone
I'm left here with myself and I wonder what went wrong
And now my heart is broken
Like the bottles on the floor
Does it really matter?
Or am I just hung over you?

Now Iv'e got myself looking like a mess
Standing alone
Hear at the end try to pretend but no,
I put up my fight
But this is it this time (this time)
Cus I'm here at the end, tryin to pretend
Here at the end, tryin to pretend
Oh, ohhh

And now the party's over,
And every bodys gone
I'm left here with myself and I wonder what went wrong
And now my heart is broken
Like the bottles on the floor
Does it really matter?
Or am I just hung over you?
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah
Or am I just hungover?
X2

Ah ah ah
Or am I just hungover?

Ella Fitzgerald - They can't take that away from me


The way you wear your hat
The way you sip your tea
The memory of all that
No they can't take that away from me

The way your smile just beams
The way you sing off key
The way you haunt my dreams
No they can't take that away from me

We may never never meet again, on that bumpy road to love
But I'll always, always keep the memory of

The way you hold your knife
The way we danced till three
The way you changed my life
No they can't take that away from me
