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...

Do you take notes in class?

Hi! It's been a hell of a long time, hasn't it? But here I am, finally back again. You know those people who make Blogs, writes on them, until they finally get either tired or bored or busy and their Blog gets deserted like the most quiet part of the Sahara? Well the first time I decided to make this Blog I was determined to not become that type of person. Anyway, I'm not really into a deep, philosophical talking right now. I'm in a more of a trivial mood if there even is such a thing. And in having this mood, a question just hatched at the top of my head. Do you take notes in class? I mean seriously. Do you take notes when you're studying or do you make notes of what your teacher writes on tho front board? Because I do. But I never revisit my notes. I have a number of friends that like to take notes of everything that has been either spoken or written in class. Some of them even go to extensive methods when it comes to note-taking e.g. buying expensive statione...

Fear & The National Finals

Fear. That thrilling sensation triggered by your brain that goes down your spine and from there, it swarms every centimetre cubic and square of your flesh and skin. That unsettling feeling translated into a consistently rapid heartbeat. It's one of those set of letters that you definitely don't want engraved in your mind. It's that thing that you don't want infecting your thoughts and ideas. It is the very embodiment of "not good". And those words above are probably an exaggeration. But let's be honest, some of it is definitely true and worth nodding your head towards. Whilst I am writing this blog, I am feeling fear. It has little to do with the blogpost itself. But it has everything to do with the Junior High School's national finals that is to be conducted on Monday, nationwide throughout the whole Indonesian archipelago. And you might wonder, what's so frightening about an exam? I mean, towards a certain extent, and to some people, it is sl...
