What I Think About Zedd's New Album

So I actually got the True Colors album quite a while ago. And I have listened to it several times. It simply is awesome. I'm not like a really really super committed EDM fanboy. But the kind of music that Anton Zaslavski makes is simply different. I know that EDM is a actually a large music genre and there are a lot of sub-genres in it but that's about what I know. My knowledge isn't really that deep when it comes to EDM and I don't know what EDM sub-genre that Zedd specialises in. But I can definitely tell that it's different.

 When I say "different", I'm not only talking about the tunes and the beats and the drops or whatever. I'm also talking about the lyrics. Every song that Zedd makes always tells a story and I find that awesome. It's not like AronChupa's Albatraos that tells about a mouse named Lorry and suddenly it had something to do with the word "albatraos" which I thought was a name of a bird but in the end turned out to mean "a strong, independent woman" in god knows what language. I think that music is one of tons of medias out there to share stories through. And Zedd did exactly that through this album. He told stories about falling in love, experiencing heart breaks of some sort, showing your true colors, those kind of stuff. He really is telling something through his songs. And it really is that awesome.

 One of my his songs that I like the most in the True Colors album is "Daisy" which was sang by Julia Michaels. From my understanding, it was a story about someone named Daisy (oh, that's not obvious) and how the we experience the singer's love to him or her (no idea what gender). It was a simple song. But I find it really romantic and powerful in it's lyrics. There's a part where the lyrics said "I would take the light out the stars to help you see. Anything to guide you straight to me." And I was just like "How the hell did he come up with lyrics like these??" Zedd is clearly more than a DJ and that's exactly why I love his music.

 Have you listened to the True Colors album? Go buy it then! I guarantee you will not be pissed. And after you've bought it please do tell me what you think about the album itself and Zedd's music in general. See ya, lads...

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...

Finals Story

So around this week, every single junior high school in Indonesia are having their finals. Although not at the exact same time, but yeah. In my school, the finals will be held from last Friday to next Thursday with an exception of Sunday because it's obviously a holiday (Saturday's not a holiday in Indonesia. Sad. I know). Anyway because there's only going to be one exam subject for tomorrow when every other day except for tomorrow's got two and tomorrow's subject happens to be English, I thought that instead of properly studying I'd write a blogpost tonight. So I guess I'll tell you what has been happening since the first day of finals. So at the first day, the subjects were Bahasa Indonesia and Islamic Studies. Bahasa Indonesia has been always relatively easy to complete. I'm sure the majority of students completed it in around 30-45 minutes when the rules say you basically have to pass at least 1 hour and 50 minutes to be able to submit your work an...
