As my old man used to say; communication is something needed for a better reach to peoples.
Let me introduce my self properly. Hi everyone! I'm Cheryl Zalfa Cahya, the nickname's Cheryl, I’m from Jakarta and I came from a house full of music. Almost all of my family are able to play instrument, or have a great understanding of music in general. And that’s probably one of the reason why I’m so keen on music. I am not an expert, I wouldn’t call my self one, but I can say that I look at music at a certain senses of wanting and longing. Music is something that I couldn’t part my self with, it’s something wonderfull and magical that has been created by humans with the soul of art.
Even though I’m surrounded with people who are pursuing art, I my self have high interest on literatures. I love reading, I have been doing it since I am able to form and understand words in my head. My childhood are filled with Harry Potter, Lima Sekawan, Conan, books written by Agatha Christie and even more. I love novels, and by the time that I found out about poem, I begin to love it as much as I love novels. I’ve read many different kind of genre; classic, romance, fantasy, psychology, horror and out of all of them, I love psychological fiction the most. One of my favorite novels is made back in 1992, a book written by Donna Tart called ‘The Secret History’.
I love literatures as much as I love my cats and I am excited to learn in Mr. Roki’s class. I hope I can develope my english skills to have a better understanding on communicating or anything related to the language of English. I also hope we can have a pleasant time in our future meetings.
GET TO KNOW ME BETTER!
In this section I'm going to share facts about me!
MY KITTENS!
My brother's cat. Ranger's daughter. She is one year old. She loves playing stick with my brother and she is the most loved cat in our family.
My cat! Vanilla's son. He is six month old. He's cembul playmate. They're always chasing each other around. Bontet loves getting pet, he's adorable.
EMMA CHAMBERLAIN!
She is the humblest successful person I have ever seen in the internet. If you are a cat mom, coffee lovers, someone who enjoy reading books and love travelling, then hello? Check her out? She is someone that you can watch and just, enjoy. She can talk for hours and I wouldn't get bored listening to her. At the age of 18, Emma is able to have her own income independently and I admire her for that. She is amazing, she is the queen, she is the icon.
UNDERRATED BAND I LOVE!
I have never encounter anyone that know Lamp. Every time I ask my acquaintance wether they know Lamp or not, they thought I was joking asking them Lamp as in lamp in english word. That is why if you know Lamp, come to me and let's talk about them together. Their band is honestly one of my favorites, I hope I can make a fellow Lamp lovers.
Gensou is a perfect combination of slow beat and fast beat. In this album, Lamp present us variant type of songs. One of my favorite song inside this album is called 'Yogure'. I don't understand Japanesse but the melody, the way the singer sing it, the riff, the instrument, just by that alone I am able to form a feeling from the song. Even without understanding it languages, we can understand musics.
CURRENT MOST LISTENED SONG.
One word, flawless. It's been months but I can't stop listening. I have to play this song at least twice a day, I'll never get enough of it. It gives me such a melancholic feeling! I picture it as a song where the character inside this song resolute with the idea of settling. It feels like home, it sound like you are meant to listen to it again, again, and again until it addict you so much you can never stop listening to it. Thank you The Black Skirt for producing this song. I will (and I already did) cherish this with all my heart.
MY FAVORITE QUOTE!
'Beauty is rarely soft or consolatory. Quite the contrary, beauty is quite alarming.'
