Parliamo Italiano!

Ciao! Io mi chiamo Paramita, sono Indonesiana. Mi piace molto tiramisù!

Dengan bangga saya menyatakan bahwa, saya belum pernah bolos kelas bahasa Italia! Hohoho… Padahal jadwalnya cukup bikin jiper loh, bayangkan, jam 6 sampai 8 malam, dua kali seminggu. Tapi entah kenapa saya semangat bener datang ke kelas, bahkan lebih semangat dibandingkan datang ke kuliah XD.

Sejak awal, sang Signora Insegnante *seterusnya saya sebut SI aja ya* a.k.a ibu guru tak pernah sekalipun menggunakan bahasa selain bahasa Italia, sempet stress sih waktu itu, ga ngerti apa-apa: “Ini orang ngomong apa sih??”. Murid lain sih enak, kebanyakan berasal dari Jerman, Spanyol, atau Perancis yang akar bahasanya sama. Tapi lama-lama, setelah dijejali banyak vocabulary, saya bisa menebak apa maksud perkataan sang SI.

Waktu belajar bahasa Perancis tahun lalu, sebenarnya saya juga semangat, sayangnya cuma di awal. Setelah bolos beberapa minggu dan ketinggalan banyak, akhirnya berhenti >.<. Mungkin karena faktor pengucapan yang tak bersahabat dengan lidah saya. Kalau bahasa Italia, totally tongue friendly! At least for mine ;p Bahkan sempat dipuji oleh sang SI karena pengucapan saya lancar jaya sampai dikira sudah pernah belajar sebelumnya, hihi…

Metode pengajarannya pun menyenangkan, hampir selalu ada games, atau diputarkan video dan lagu untuk melatih listening. And here you go, one of my favorite song…

Lyric (with English translation)?

È Per Te by Jovanotti. It’s actually a lullaby song. I love it mostly because of the soothing melody, and the song is full of vocabulary that taught me words in Italian :)

È per te ogni cosa che c’è ninna na ninna e… Ahh, makes me sleepy.. buonanotte!

When I Am Old One Day

Will I sit in the park, time on my hands to soak up the sun…
or will I have made my mark, and still have some things that have to be done?

Mary Hopkin (born 3 May 1950), credited on some recordings as Mary Visconti, is a Welsh folk singer best known for her 1968 UK number one single “Those Were The Days”. — Wikipedia

Oh how I love this song.. and her voice. And now I know the singer who sang the song that I almost always played with my electone. “Those were the days, my friend…”

When I am old one day… I wish I don’t have to regret something like, “akh, I should’ve done that when I was younger..” ;p. So, it’s better to do everything that I could do now.

Okay, now.. let’s start with.. doing everything that I should do first >.<

The Mirza Family

Since it’s only at the beginning of my 3rd semester, means all of the classes were still at the ‘introductory part’, I’ve been doing some projects which require my right brain more than my left brain. Designing. I really enjoy this more than writing paper, obviously. And until now, sometimes I have a feeling that I’ve been taking the ‘wrong path’ ^^; Oh well..

Anyway, since my right brain is more active lately, I decided to grab a pencil and sketch this *while waiting for my 17.00 class ~_~*. It’s been a while since a played around with pencil, let alone paint. I’m afraid I forgot how to physically mix color and to stroke brushes on the canvas, since now I’m more familiar with Photoshop -_-.

Inspired by The Big Bang Theory – Hair :)

The easiest one? Of course the one with short hair and not much black hair left ;) *sorry to say, Pupule*.

…by Humming Urban Stereo ^^. Scent of a Woman introduced me to this song. I hear it everytime the heroine’s phone is ringing. Such a cute song, and hearing it reminds me of Maliq & D’Essentials.

Anyway, my fave scene from the drama…

Such a dangerous way of riding a bike don’t you think ^^; And I’m not sure if that’s convenient, either for the one that’s riding or the one that’s sitting backward. I guess it only happens in drama. But… ehem, my adventurous side said that she wouldn’t mind to try it once :”>. Let’s see…

By Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman. Dengan berbekal pengetahuan bahasa Italia sebatas lirik lagu ini, dan istilah “Dolce Far Niente” dari Eat, Pray, Love… saya berangkat menuju negeri pizza dan pasta. Wish me luck! ^^
