The Parade was opened by the outstanding performance marching band performance form the Naval Academy (Akademi Angkatan Laut) - which i missed but i know that it's great as i've seen on TV on their other performance. The crowd was flooding along the street of Jl. Kramat Gantung – Jl. Gemblongan – Jl. Tunjungan – Jl. Gubernur Suryo – Jl. Yos Sudarso – Jl. Walikota Mustajab – Jl. Jaksa Agung Suprapto.
I was late to see the parade. I missed for at least 20 participants. I had to find ways to get into the main street to be able to watch the parade. It's a great parade since i love parade and carnival. Though the day was hot and there were many people along the street but I was so happy. Best of it was because of the DSLR camera i borrowed from a friend. I had opportunity to came close to the participants without being mooed or disturbed by the police officer or guards. Everybody thought I was a pro-photographer since i used semi-pro camera. I learnt one important lesson, "bring a pro-camera and you will get all the access" I could even sneaked inside the march just to get the best angle for my shots. I also asked some participants to act in front of my lens. I was helped a lot by the camera.
To me the parade was great since the participants did perform their best. They really entertained people and i love their enthusiasm to dance, yell, sing, and smile under the hot burning sun of Surabaya. I love the spirit of unity in diversity that Surabaya people have. They all greet enthusiastically for all participants, young and old, muslims or christian, they were all celebrating the city's birthday in a big brotherhood spirit. Can't wait to have the parade again for next year.

The Slightly Chipped Full Moon is the twenty-first track on the Kuroshitsuji II Original Soundtrack. It is sung in English by Yucca. There are two remixes on the soundtrack, "Fragile Mind" and "Cruelly Eyes". "Fragile Mind", the twelfth track, is a less instrumental remix. "Cruelly Eyes", the fifteenth track, is an instrumental version.
The full moon slightly chipped
That's so me
So please
Save me and hold me tight
Just make me all right
Under the dark clouds
Wingless swans in my soul
From the fortress, a pessimist
My howl in the night,
To the isolated star
Don't drive me crazy
Everything seems too far
The sky so deep
Spread endlessly
How on earth can I get to the strawberry field?
The full moon slightly chipped
Uncertain
Oh please
Save me and let me smile
Just make me all right
Over the bed of trees
My heart spins around
My howl in the dawn
To the isolated star
I dare to forgive you
Everything seems too far
But care for me tenderly
How on earth can I get to the strawberry field?
This is just a simple song which like express sadness. I know this song when i watch Kuroshitsuji II, and this song as the backsound (Alois Trancy theme). At first i didn't really get the meaning of the lyric, but from the first time i heard this song i instantly love this song. It's so dark and sad, but i really love the music composition.
This is a great song to listen to when you wanna cry ur eyes out!
I think some of you know about this song, if you watch the Camp Rock film that starring by Demi Lovato and Joe Jonas. And for you girls i think you have a same destiny with me if Joe Jonas is very handsome boy. Joe Jonas is one of the group Jonas Brothers. And Demi Lovato is a singer. They are be a partner for this film. And for me this film is nice ...! What about you ?
Let's talk about this song ....
Wouldn't Change a Thing is one of the original soundtrack from Camp Rock film. Actually not only this song, but there are also This Is Me....
The first song that i knew was This Is Me. I was really love with this song. And not only that, i also watched the Camp Rock film. Everyday I heard this song from my mobile phone and i never got bored with this song. It was make me falling in love with Joe Jonas. I was search many things about him. Not only his songs, but i also got his photos. Demi Lovato & Joe Jonas ever had special relations, but now they were a friend.
After knew the first song. I was search in internet the next song and the tittle was Wouldn't Change a Thing. When the first time i heard this song, this song was very nice and i was love when i saw the video clip in Youtube. In the video they were duet and it was make me wanna dance and sang together.....
For me this is one of the special songs that i played in my mobile phone everyday before i went to sleep. If i make a rank maybe this is the first rank for me. I hope you can enjoy this and i hope you like this song very much ....
[Demi & Joe]
It's like, he doesn't hear a word I say
His mind is somewhere far away
And I don't know how to get there
It's like all he wants is to chill out
(She's serious)
He makes me wanna pull all my hair out
(She's always in a rush and interrupted)
Like he doesn't even care
(Like she doesn't even care)
[Demi & Joe]
You, me
We're face to face
But we don't see eye to eye
Like fire and rain (Like fire and rain)
You can drive me insane (You can drive me insane)
But I can't stay mad at you for anything
We're Venus and Mars (Venus and Mars)
We're like different stars (like different stars)
You're the harmony to every song I sing
And I wouldn't change a thing
[Joe]
She's always trying to save the day
Just wanna let my music play
She's all or nothing
But my feeling's never change
[Demi & Joe]
Why does he try to read my mind?
(I try to read her mind)
It's not good to psychoanalyze
(She tries to pick a fight to get attention)
That's what all of my friends say
(That's what all of my friends say)
[Demi & Joe]
You, me
We're face to face
But we don't see eye to eye

We're Venus and Mars (Venus and Mars)
We're like different stars (like different stars)
but you're the harmony to every song I sing
And I wouldn't change a thing
[Demi & Joe]
When I'm yes, she's no
When I hold on, he just lets go
We're perfectly imperfect
But I wouldn't change a thing, no
Like fire and rain (Like fire and rain)
You can drive me insane (You can drive me insane)
But I can't stay mad at you for anything
We're Venus and Mars (Venus and Mars)
We're like different stars (like different stars)
but you're the harmony to every song I sing
And I wouldn't change a thing
But I can't stay mad at you for anything
We're Venus and Mars (Venus and Mars)
We're like different stars (like different stars)
but you're the harmony to every song I sing
And I wouldn't change a
Wouldn't change a thing
Yeah John Visely .. I love your song : )
When I'm getting tired and bored then I listening to this song, I feel like I get my spirit back and make me enthusiastic to do my activity again, because I spend whole of my days in my school.
"You and I" is one of Secondhand Serenade's song in Hear Me Now album (2010). The genre of this song is rock. You don't know Secondhand Serenade? You can read it in this blog too.
If you want to download it, there are 3 types of "You and I", "You and I" by Secondhand Serenade, "You and I" by Secondhand Serenade featuring Cady Groves, and "You and Iacoustic version" by Secondhand Serenade. But my favorite is "You and I" by Secondhand Serenade featuring Cady Groves, I like Cady Groves's voice, I think it's cute ^^
I'm sorry I can't find the real video clip, maybe Secondhand Serenade didn't make it.
But I found a nice video above. Wish you enjoy it : )

When you smile, I smile

Baby take my open heart

Wkwkwk . I think, this song has funny lyrics . This song is suitable to someone who don't wanna doing anything . haha , like the lyrics :) I really really love the video clip, because the video clip is simple and funny . There are 5 monkeys and they are dance together with Bruno Mars .The face of the monkeys is very funny. Because the lips is forward like a man whistling lips and they also wear sunglasses :D . The video clip just took in a place, It's bedroom :0 . I think, if you listen the song for the first time maybe you'll be like this song :D
The song is unique . The Lazy song is wrote by Mars . Mars wrote the song with K'Naan. Do you know K'naan right ? He is singer of soindtrack of World Cup 2011 at South Africa "Wavin' Flag". The Lazy Song displays roots reggae and Hawaiian music . Let's sing with me ! :D
This is one of my favorite songs. This song is about love story of course :D I mean it's about forbidden love at the first time between Romeo and Juliet but finally it have happy ending story. Taylor Swift is the singer of this song in "Fearless" album (2008).
I like this song because I like everything about princess, kingdom, and the love story. I heard this song at the first time when I was listen to the radio and I heard a word 'princess' and the announcer said that song is Taylor Swift's but I didn't know the tittle. Then the next day I talked about that song with my friend and she said she want to have that song song, but she also didn't know the tittle too. A week passed, then my friend called me and she shared the song to me and sent it to my cellphone. I learned about the lyrics at home so I understood the meaning, then I realized woww .. it's so romantic : )
Check this out ..
We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes
And the flashback starts
I'm standing there
On a balcony of summer air
See the lights,
See the party, the ball gowns
I see you make your way through the crowd
You say hello
Little did I know
That you were Romeo you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
And I was crying on the staircase, begging you please don't go
And I said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting all this left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story baby just say yes
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet cause we're dead if they know
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while
Cause you were Romeo I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
But you were everything to me, I was begging you please don't go
