oslo experience

i know, some friends really care, and read my blog just to know whats happening in my life these days. too many things are happening in such a short span of time that i hardly have the time to update my blog. cewah. excuses. i think i must blame facebook for this lack of writing. everyone updates their status/feelings/thoughts or make thorough discussions on pages/notes/status of other friends.

anyways, just to update you guys, i just got back from oslo, visiting torstein, a person whom i met here in brussels during the Museum Night Fever. I must say, i had a wonderful time in oslo. apart from going to all these unique places in oslo, people that i met are all interesting and frankly has made an impact to the way i think. torstein especially is one unique person and who does not conform to what society think is right or wrong, or in, or fashionable. and his bunch of friends too has really cool views about things in general. about movies, about attitudes, about psychology, about nature, about civilization. phew i must say, it was an enriching weekend.

i just cant express how great this experience was, but we had some great discussion on life, about religion, about childhood and how we reflect and react on these matters. and to sum it all up, it happens to be all in this song :




Ooooooooh Ooooh Ooooh
Some people think they're always right
Others are quiet and uptight
Others they seem so very nice, nice, nice, nice, nice, nice...(oh-ho)
Inside they might feel sad and wrong (oh no)

Twenty-nine different attributes
Only seven that you like (uh oh)
Twenty ways to see the world (oh-ho)
Twenty ways to start a fight (oh-ho)

Oh don't, don't, don't get up
Sh-sh-sh-sh-I can't see the sunshine
I'll be waiting for you, baby
Cause I'm through
Sit me down
Shut me up
I'll calm down
And I'll get along with you
ooooooo-ooooooo-oooooh

Oh, men don't notice what they got
Oh, women think of that a lot...
A thousand ways to please your man (oh-ho)
Not even one requires a plan (I know)

And countless odd religions, too
It doesn't matter which you choose (oh no)
One stubborn way to turn your back (oh-ho)
This I've tried and now refuse (oh-ho)

Oh don't, don't, don't get up
Sh-sh-sh-sh-I can't see the sunshine
Oh, I'll be waiting for you, baby
Cause I'm through
Sit me down
Shut me up
I'll calm down
And I'll get along with you
Alright

Shut me up
Shut me up
And I'll get along with you

so what's happening in everyone's life these days? apart from having babies and getting married that is. :) share now. mail your experiences to ra**qa.ri***an@gmail.com then. hahaha.

anyways, i know there's much more to say and write actually about all the experiences that i have gone through. just wait for this ra**qa comes back and see the better me. cewah. better katanyaa... hahaha.

well being away, away from my comfort zone has taught me to prioritize. taught me to be more sensitive to what i need and what i dont need. the friendship i should cherish and the ones i should not. the bonding that i have made, and the ones i do not need to pursue. the ones i really missed and the ones i missed just because. haha. i am grateful for this opportunity and i am grateful that i learn so many things during this period. well not that its going to be over soon but am just trying to put everything that i have not wrote all this while in this one entry. haha summarizing a year and a half of experience konsepnyaa..

ok back to work!
