What Kind of Music Defines You?

Since I was like 10 years old up until now there's probably no day in my life where I haven't listened to music. I think I'm the kind of guy who likes all sorts of music. From classic, acoustic, rock, to EDM, pop, rap, whatever. If I think it's good I'll listen to those stuff. But that's not what I want to talk about in this post. I want to answer a question. What kind of music defines me?

That is one of the hardest questions of life, man. I mean, seriously. How am I suppose to pick one kind when I like to listen to like all of them? Well you know what I'll try to answer it anyway so let's see how it goes.

First of all, to me, music is a media to tell stories. Music is a way of sharing. So with that being said, I think I'll definitely rule out EDM. I only like EDM because it gives you the fun and the hype and the sort of "togetherness" when you're amongst your friends jumping to it. But it's kinda hard to tell stories with it. I mean there are a lot of EDM songs that have lyrics on them but it doesn't really hit you as hard as other kinds of music. So yeah, EDM definitely does not define me.

Enough blabbering. Let's just get to it. I think the music that defines me the most is rock. But not like the heavymetal rock stuff. I hate it to be frank. I guess I'm more like the alternative, British rock kinda guy. Okay, so why do I love rock? Because it's awesome. Why do I think it's awesome? Maybe it's because I grew up listening to rock. Bands like Paramore, Simple Plan, Muse, 30SecondstoMars, they're definitely on my list. Oh yeah and there's this really cool Japanese-English rock band that I only started to listen recently (and I regret that). It's called OneOKRock and be sure to check them out.

So yeah, rock is the music that defines me. What kind of music defines you guys? Comment it down below or you can even send me a link to your blog and I'll be sure to read it. See y'all...

Speech Script: Being an Introvert

Hey, Guys. I thought I'll share another speech script today. I used this script when I was competing in a competition held by a Senior High in Bantul, Yogyakarta Special Area. I got 1st in that competition so I think this one is pretty good. And I also wanna say that in this speech script I slipped in a little personal story of mine. So it's gonna be a little hard if you're going to copy it haha... So here you go. I’ve always felt that I’m different compared to most people. At least compared to most students in my school. On break time, they like to gather in groups and gossip about someone or chat about the current trends. I prefer not to. If I necessarily have to get involved in a group chat outside my class, I always try not to do the unnecessary. Not to talk too much. Some people say that I’m shy and weird. Some even say I’m arrogant and antisocial. The truth is, I’m an “introvert”. So ladies and gentlemen, the honourable judges, and my fellow competitors, this morn...

High School: Initial Thoughts

I haven't been blogging for like 2 months. And I apologise for that (even though I'm not quite sure whether I have any loyal readers out there). But anyway, let me update you about my current situation. So I graduated from middle school or junior high school or whatever (which is a good thing) and I graduated with relatively great grades (which is a very good). I then applied for the best high school in Yogyakarta (in terms of passing grade) and I eventually made it. I am incredibly grateful for that series of very fortunate events. But I can't help but feel a bit nervous and scared of what's to come. Now I don't know how big of a fish I am. But what I know is that I chose to be in the big pond and I currently am in the big pond. Not only that, but I'm also in this pond with loads of other fishes. None of them seems to be friendly. There are threats that I might not perform well or that I might look like a complete idiot just because I chose to be among the ge...

My Not So Professional Take on Indonesia's Education System

    So recently I just had this little realisation. I was about to call it an epiphany but I thought using that word would be a dramatisation, so for the moment let's just call it a minor realisation. So I live in Indonesia which if you don't know already, is a developing country. We have so many things to be proud about like our astonishingly diverse culture and our unique culinary taste. But education isn't one of those things. Education is far from those things. Like our education sucks. I don't exactly know the reason to that. I mean I haven't done a research or anything but I might have some ideas and hypotheses to the situation. The human resource, the gap between islands Firstly, I think the problem comes from the not-so-advanced framework of the whole education system itself. Indonesia comes 4th globally in terms of population. There's about 250 million of us. And yet, our education system doesn't have enough human resource to support...
