Utada Hikaru, Fantome

In 2016, Utada has released a new album; Fantome

She is my most fav Japanese's Singers. 

Her legend song is First Love, I bet, you who like Japanese song or singer are so familiar with this song, so beautiful...

Ok back to her new album, it consist of 11 new songs, and I love track #1 Michi (Road) and #3 Hanabata wo Kimi ni (a Baquet for you)

The lyrics from both songs are cool and as usual and Utada was really nailed them!

Michi is more like beat song, it makes you wanna move your hands up and umm...givin a message to never give up in life, while Hanabata wo Kimi ni, it is a kind of balad song, its slow but swing you to follow the song from start to the ending

--Sometime the first will always end to be the first, #utada #hikki #myfavsinger--

Kefamenanu

Around 2 weeks ago I got chance to visit a new place, Kefamenanu. According to Wikipedia, Kefamenanu is a town in North Central Timor Regency in West Timor (East Nusa Tenggara Province)

It took around 1.5 hours by plane from Bali. From El Tari International Airport, Kupang to Kefa by land is about 3.5 - 4 hours by car, if you're using public transportation, you will spend around 6-7 hours.

Despite total 5.5 hours to reach Kefa, it was a good experience and another life journey in my life.

The reason to visit this town is related to work, to meet and audit one of raw mat suppliers. Then, to visit the field and also meet the farmers, therefor, the adventure was also hit to another small districts.

The road is quite good, the people in Kefa's town seem has standard life…but, somehow I feel bad, I dont know, if you go down to the village, especially me feel that I am so good living in Denpasar, Bali. I have all the access of everything, good water, electricity, various food, entertainment, so many things, and yet sometime I feel not enough.

Kefa was the 2nd place that again turned me to a point that when you feel that your life is hard, and in your head full of complaining and request to Allah SWT, then, there are people in other sides of this Indonesia or world who still struggle to live in limited access to anything

To be honest, the most sad thing is that, say a young teenage want to have better education, she/he needs to go to Kupang, and then spend hours in a bus to reach the town, stay in a rent room, etc…or maybe I am the one who feel sorry, while that young teenage feel ok because that what life provides for her/him, they accept that condition

While, I see teenage in the town where I live somehow not study in proper, too many style, spending time to hangout, do nothing important, depending on wealthy parents….in contradictory situation

However, you cannot make everything like your scenario right? A step of changing, is to do it in yourself first before hoping others did the same

— I am blessed, shall not ask to much to Allah SWT---
