When will I see you again?

Kapan aku akan bertemu denganmu lagi?
You left with no goodbye, not a single word was said,
Kau pergi tanpa ucapkan selamat tinggal, tanpa sepatah katapun
No final kiss to seal any seams,
Tanpa kecupan terakhir ‘tuk akhiri kebersamaan
I had no idea of the state we were in,
Aku tak tahu apa yang terjadi di antara kita

I know I have a fickle heart and bitterness,
Aku tahu hatiku plin-plan dan tak menyenangkan
And a wandering eye, and a heaviness in my head,
Dan mataku tak mau diam, dan kepalaku penuh masalah

CHORUS
But don’t you remember?
Tapi tak ingatkan kau?
Don’t you remember?
Tak ingatkah kau?
The reason you loved me before
Alasanmu dulu mencintaiku
Baby, please remember me once more,
Kasih, ingatlah aku sekali lagi

When was the last time you thought of me?
Kapan terakhir kali kau memikirkanku?
Or have you completely erased me from your memory?
Ataukah kau telah sepenuhnya menghapusku dari ingatanmu?
I often think about where I went wrong
Sering kuberpikir dimanakah salahku
The more I do, the less I know,
Semakin banyak yang kulakukan, semakin sedikit yang kutahu

But I know I have a fickle heart and bitterness,
Namun aku tahu hatiku plin-plan dan tak menyenangkan
And a wandering eye, and a heaviness in my head,
Dan mataku tak mau diam, dan kepalaku penuh masalah

CHORUS
But don’t you remember?
Tapi tak ingatkan kau?
Don’t you remember?
Tak ingatkah kau?
The reason you loved me before
Alasanmu dulu mencintaiku
Baby, please remember me once more,
Kasih, ingatlah aku sekali lagi

Gave you the space so you could breathe,
Kuberi kau ruang agar kau bisa bernafas
I kept my distance so you would be free,
Kumenjauh agar kau bisa bebas
And hope that you find the missing piece,
Dan kuberharap kau kan temukan kepingan yang hilang itu
To bring you back to me,
Yang kan membawamu kembali padaku

CHORUS
But don’t you remember?
Tapi tak ingatkan kau?
Don’t you remember?
Tak ingatkah kau?
The reason you loved me before
Alasanmu dulu mencintaiku
Baby, please remember me once more,
Kasih, ingatlah aku sekali lagi

When will I see you again?
Kapan aku akan bertemu denganmu lagi?

    CINDERELLA

Orientation

Once upon a time, there was a young girl named Cinderella. She lived with her step mother and two step sisters. The step mother and sisters were conceited and bad tempered. They treated Cinderella very badly. Her step mother made Cinderella do the hardest works in the house; such as scrubbing the floor, cleaning the pot and pan and preparing the food for the family. The two step sisters, on the other hand, did not work about the house. Their mother gave them many handsome dresses to wear.

Complication

One day, the two step sister received an invitation to the ball that the king’s son was going to give at the palace. They were excited about this and spent so much time choosing the dresses they would wear. At last, the day of the ball came, and away went the sisters to it. Cinderella could not help crying after they had left. “Why are crying, Cinderella?” a voice asked. She looked up and saw her fairy godmother standing beside her, “because I want so much to go to the ball” said Cinderella. “Well” said the godmother,”you’ve been such a cheerful, hardworking, uncomplaining girl that I am going to see that you do go to the ball”.

Magically, the fairy godmother changed a pumpkin into a fine coach and mice into a coachman and two footmen. Her godmother tapped Cinderella’s raged dress with her wand, and it became a beautiful ball gown. Then she gave her a pair of pretty glass slippers. “Now, Cinderella”, she said; “You must leave before midnight”. Then away she drove in her beautiful coach.Cinderella was having a wonderfully good time. She danced again and again with the king’s son. Suddenly the clock began to strike twelve, she ran toward the door as quickly as she could. In her hurry, one of her glass slipper was left behind.

Resolution

A few days later, the king’ son proclaimed that he would marry the girl whose feet fitted the glass slipper. Her step sisters tried on the slipper but it was too small for them, no matter how hard they squeezed their toes into it. In the end, the king’s page let Cinderella try on the slipper. She stuck out her foot and the page slipped the slipper on. It fitted perfectly.
Finally, she was driven to the palace. The king’s son was overjoyed to see her again. They were married and live happily ever after.

    My Cat Gregory 

Identification

Gregory is my beautiful gray Persian cat. He walks with pride and grace, performing a dance of disdain as he slowly lifts and lowers each paw with the delicacy of a ballet dancer. His pride, however, does not extend to his appearance, for he spends most of his time indoors watching television and growing fat.

Description

He enjoys TV commercials, especially those for Meow Mix and 9 Lives. His familiarity with cat food commercials has led him to reject generic brands of cat food in favor of only the most expensive brands.

Gregory is as finicky about visitors as he is about what he eats, befriending some and repelling others. He may snuggle up against your ankle, begging to be petted, or he may imitate a skunk and stain your favorite trousers.Gregory does not do this to establish his territory, as many cat experts think, but to humiliate me because he is jealous of my friends.

After my guests have fled, I look at the old fleabag snoozing and smiling to himself in front of the television set, and I have to forgive him for his obnoxious, but endearing, habits.
