Well everyone have that time when they feels broken inside.  Its just how they deal with it. 

How I deal with my brokenness *is the word even exist🤔

I usually use music to deal with my brokenness. I don't know why but I do feel relieved and calm when I listen to the lyrics and after that I just heal and act normally. 

Its just the inside of me and I can deal with it.

This is my hometown Johor Bahru Ayer Hitam.
Johor Bahru was founded in 1855 as Iskandar Puteri when the Sultanate of Johor came under the influence of Temenggong Daeng Ibrahim. The area was renamed "Johor Bahru" in 1862 and became the capital of the Sultanate when the Sultanate administration centre was moved there from Telok Blangah.

Dove and Pigeon

Friday, May 12, 2017
by: Ellysha Zuraimi

​
people do judge. people do give first impression. But its not about how people give first impressions. This is about how people treat dove lovely and not the same way to pigeon.

I picture dove as a women or men that have white skin, tall, beautiful or handsome.

and 

I picture pigeon as short, fat, dark, and not as attractive as dove.

I do know that people choose the best for whatever reason is. But what if in organisation, this pigeon is a hardworking person, do heavy work and all. While dove only do things that is simple and easy. 

It happened to some of us, it happened to me. 

Do heavy works, lift heavy things, run from downstairs to upstairs and repeatedly while this dove is sitting on a chair just do simple work. And still this dove gets gratifications and thanks while no one thanked us the one who prepared everything and clean up every mess. 

People. Do appreciate us, the pigeons. We are not KULI and we deserve a thanks.

I want to share about history Of Cappadocia

History of Cappadocia

Fairy chimneys came into beings by geographical events. In historical process, people used these fairy chimneys as their home. They built churchs and decorated with frescos. So, the traces of the civilisation through thousands of years can easily be seen today. In order to save this cultural treasure and not to have the region snatched, even Thalesfrom Milet, divided the Red River (Halys) into two parts and made the army pass through it to help Lydian King for making a stand against Persian attacks. He also carried outhis first scientific plans here. The names of the cities in Cappadocia were lost in this general statement because of the fame Cappadocia had and its being a well known state.

Natural beauty and cultural richness of Ürgüp, Avanos, Zelve and Göreme attracted a lot of historians and explorers for centuries. Cappadocia was known as “Catpatuca” in Persian agd and “Catpatukka” meant the area that the finest horses were raised. Nevertheless, there is still debate about where the origin of the word comes from: Hattie, Luid, Hittite and Assyrian or else. Therefore, resources about the horses were researched and important data were found. Hittites gave importance to horse raising between 1460 and 1190 BC. We know that they brought raisers from Mittanni and they wrote the recommendations given by these raisers on the tablets. So, they guaranteed the transition of the knowledge fort he next generations. In the state archives of Bogazköy, a work written by Kikkuli the young raiser from Mittani was found. Xenephon in 401 BC, Strappon from Amasya in 18 AD, Gregoir from Nissa from 334 to 394 AD and also a young grower from Maccan (Göreme) put information about the history the region for us.

Charged with the duty to go around the Mediterranean countries by French Kingdom, Paul Lucas was the first to introduce the region to Europe with his travel book. With the duty by French King Louis 14., he got amazed when he came around Ürgüp and Avanos in August, 1705. The fariy geological structue of the region, especially interesting rock houses that people lived, churches and interior confused him utterly.

TRACK REVIEW: Werewolf by Fiona Apple

Friday, May 12, 2017
BY FARHIRA FARUDIN


Werewolf in every aspect is a poetic song. 

The piano arrangement is nothing complex because the poetic lyrics play the major part of the song. To strengthen the powerful essence of it, she adds the sound of screaming children to coexist with her singing towards the end of the song. 

Werewolf is the song to end a relationship for good. In the first verse, she points her finger to her partner by singing “I could liken you to a werewolf, the way you left me for dead,” but later she raises her hands up, understandably as an act to be the mature one, to partially take the blame as she continues with “But I admit that I provided the full moon.” 

The relationship itself is an unfixable tragedy, albeit the partner is initially known as a ‘super guy’ and together they are akin of ‘a wishing well and a bolt of electricity’. 

But, she has a full awareness that it would be an illogical act to perpetuate a relationship where neither wants to love anymore, and she sings “Cause in the end, I’m a sensible girl I know the fiction of the fix.” 

She knows there’s nothing good can be done to fix it and there’s nothing wrong when a song ends in a minor key.

Listen to the song below:

A Dancer, I Reckon

Friday, May 12, 2017
BY FARHIRA FARUDIN


Alienated
Who I am is underappreciated.
I said, come, dance with me
This place is too colourful for us to be so standstill
Dance to my song – I wasn’t always this happy
Dance to our song – I was never this free
I’d like for us to dance and dance and dance till we pass out
If that’s okay with you. I want everything to be okay with you.
But you exuded boredom to my face
And suddenly I was a star without its glow
My head was filled with rage
I worked too hard for these dance steps to be forgotten
Your face looks familiar – like a useless man I am destined to avoid
I knew I deserve a better dance partner.
Slowly I isolated myself away from you,
But my foot is still tapping though
Under the spotlight, I am alone on this dance floor
Swirling my way through the song
My body moves to his soothing voice
My hair jumps along to his fancy riffs
“Yoouuu are noooot tooo blaaaammme foooorrrr.” I know, T.
Make him leave me alone.
Black never look so bleak
And in rainbows, I never felt so well.
I am in the wrong place but at the right time
I could leave and I could be a quitter.
Everyone around me walked away when the music ends.
So I hit replay,
And I knew I want to dance again.

This poem is originally published on Eksentrika, written by me.

You're Not There

Friday, May 12, 2017
This is my Favorite Song by Lukas Graham


I only got you in my stories

And you know I tell them right

I remember you and I, when I'm awake at night

So give it up for fallen glory

I never got to say goodbye

I wish I could ask for just a bit more time


Every step I take, you used to lead the way

Now I'm terrified to face it on my own


You're not there

To celebrate the man that you made

You're not there

To share in my success and mistakes

Is it fair?

You'll never know the person I'll be

You're not there

With me


Though I know that you're not there

I still write you all these songs

It's like you got the right to know what's going on

As I struggle to remember how you used to look and sound

At times I still think I can spot you in the crowd


Every step I take, you used to lead the way

And now I'm terrified to face it on my own


You're not there

To celebrate the man that you made

You're not there

To share in my success and mistakes

Is it fair?

You'll never know the person I'll be

You're not there

With me


Time can heal your wounds if you're strong and standing tall

I've been doing all of that, it didn't help at all

They say, "You'll grow older, and it'll get better still"

Yes, I will, but no, it won't

They don't get it's cause


You're not there

To celebrate the man that you made

You're not there

To share in my success and mistakes

Is it fair?

You'll never know the person I'll be

You're not there

With me


You're not there there there

You're not there there there

You're not there there there

You're not there there there
