Laugh Like An Idiot

I have a lot of spare time. Even in the office. I get bored easily and the only way to entertain myself while pretending to work is browsing Youtube.

Youtube is kind of my playground. I mean, imagine, I can actually find everything in it. Google is of course the ultimate search engine, but when I want to understand something quickly (because I'm a visual person), then Youtube comes in handy. I can watch news, listen to some music, watch inspiring talks and videos (Ted Talks, for example) and of course laugh at silly things.

My current fav channels on Youtube for laughing my ass off (alias ketawa bego) is Pewdiepie and Edho Zell. Idk guys, but for me they're hilarious.

I knew Pewdiepie from Rendy, my former office friend. He used to play some games in the office (at lunch break and after hour) which apparently had stories on my liking: Sherlock Holmes (forgot the real title), The Evil Within, Outlast, Outlast: Whistleblower, DreadOut, and Daylight. I loved watching Rendy played it because I was too coward to play those horror games by myself, haha. But I was excited to follow the story, especially Outlast series (like, best horror game ever!). One time Rendy talked me about a guy whose reaction is always funny towards the game he plays. He typed Pewdiepie on Youtube search and yeah this guy is pretty much yell and swear at everything, haha.

Here, take a look when he played Surgeon Simulator. My, the game itself is stupidly hilarious:

From his videos, I have watched some amazing games, like The Last of Us, Beyond Two Souls, Heavy Rain, Life is Strange, Infamous: Second Son, and Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy. All are story-oriented games, I mean, Pewdiepie also plays other games too like Mortal Kombat, GTA, horror and some random funny games. But those are my favorite, as you can tell, due to its good story. Well, what's funny in Pewdiepie is his sarcasm, swear, and 9gag-ish jokes which gets me everytime. He has became my daily dose of laughing since January this year.

The second channel is the one that I found just recently, about 3 days ago. He's one of Indonesian Youtubers who posts funny parody and sketch comedy. Usually I found them as boring and cheesy, but this Edho Zell guy is somehow spontaneously original and amusing.

Here's him doing parody of Syahrini:

I found his channel from Dagelan's instagram, an absurd comedy compilation that most of Indonesian can relate. Last Wednesday night I watched almost all his videos and probably scared neighbors by laughing in the middle of the night. I think parody is funny because it's true. Go check Sacha Stevenson's Youtube channel too that depicts how (most of) Indonesian behave on her "How to Act Indonesian".

So, yeah, those are my escape from routine at the office or just simply one of ways to.. laugh like an idiot whenever I need. :)))
What's yours?


Cheers!

"You know what you should do? Get a scholarship in England, Hawa."

"I've tried, really."

"Don't give up then. It takes hard work and huge amount of effort. But it's well worth it in the future. The pain is only temporary, the victory is everlasting. Jeez, how cool was that, haha, I just made my own quote."

"Hahahaha, I was just typing that I should write your words on top of Big Ben picture, print it, and frame it."

"Hahaha, I'm flattered. Maybe I should make a living from making quotes. Right, that would be a good career choice."

"Yeah, you should."

You, narcissistically funny guy. Thanks for have crossed my path for a while. :')

Healing A Wound

Everybody has a scar.

Some prefer to hide it. Some write it into a cheesy poem. Some sing it. Some heal it with pray and happiness. Any way, we are walking pass each other without knowing the real struggle inside.

We are all imperfect. Smile over the pain. Live over the tears.

I wrote it 3 days ago in the morning at office. Feel a bit broken-hearted back then, haha well not really about "love", but yes a bit broken. My self-esteem somewhat dropped at that time. You know, the time when you feel vulnerable and unwanted.

But then I realized that everybody might be feel the same way, with a different issue.. that everybody is struggling inside, hiding the pain with smile and laughter.

I do that recently. There is a chaos in my mind (probably due to the woman jumbled-boxes-mind thing that I wrote on the previous post :p), a battle to categorize and finish every tasks. Sometimes I feel so alone and broken. But life goes on, I have to function as human, means I have to do daily routine, I have to socialise, I have to do this and that. And some of the things that bumped to me along the days, weeks, and months can lift and cheer me up--which is nice. :)

So, Hawa, you may be feel bitter in the morning (or night, depend on the event :p), but eventually you will feel better.

It is true the stimuli of both physical and emotional pain is processed in the same way in the brain. Basically our brain cannot distinguish which wound is physical and emotional because both are coded in one language: "hurt". What I'm trying to say that an emotional pain is like a physical damage, that finally recovered as the time goes.

Well.. that's what life all about, eh? :)

Oh iya, satu lagi, hampir lupa. Karena tadi pagi juga felt miserable about moving on (oh God no, it's not about my break up) and then my best friends from Hayang Nyingkah United comforted me with these golden words:

Kalo kata Veness: "Yakin aja sama apa yang udah dipilih. Soalnya mau milih mana juga pasti ada resikonya."

Kalo kata Mei: "Yang tidak mudah dari N salah satunya memang ini, tapi untuk itulah kita bikin U, biar sama-sama menguatkan dan H kita akhirnya tercapai."

Yes, Hayang Nyingkah United (HNU) is a Whatsapp group. Dibuat karena kami bertiga memiliki visi misi yang sama (you Sundanese probably can guess it easily :p). Sori advice-nya Mei emang rada decoded hahaha, typical Mei. :))

Cheers!

Similar Happy Tunes

Haaai,

Katanya kalo lagi in bad mood, salah satu cara untuk nyembuhinnya adalah dengan dengerin lagu. Well, karena kemarin zumba my instructor put a good music in it, so I want to share it with you. Ternyata lagu yang tunes-nya happy itu adalah Dear Future Husband-nya Meghan Trainor.

Despite its sexism controversy, but still it's a catchy tunes. And speaking of tunes, apparently this song is strongly similar with Dance With Me Tonight by Olly Murs. So that's adding the controversy as well. Haha, really, people, just calm down. Trainor is not fully copying, by the way.

Daaaan ternyata, katanya lagu ini pun ngejiplak lagu jadul yang judulnya Runaround Sue yang dinyanyiin penyanyi jadul tahun 60-an, Dion:

Lol, this is interesting. I don't care about the copyright thing. All I know is just the happy tunes that these songs have. You have to admit that you can dance cheerfully to these beats. Yeah!

Cheers!

Emotion

Hey, you.

I don't know exactly how I feel. I don't understand how am I supposed to feel.
The Brain wants me to get rid of you because, come on let's face it, it's illogical to keep something that as thin as a mist. One blow should be enough to make it disappear.

"But it's there.. it's exist," whispers the Heart. Or emotion. Or ego. Or just satan that continuously wishes me to keep doing the things that actually destroy my faith.

It is said that "you should never feel sorry for your feeling", but it's just inappropriate and I want you to have my apology for having an occupied mind with nonsense thoughts.

Can't you just leave?
Can't you just stay?
Please don't be in between.

"That is yours to decide, actually.." says the Heart.

"It's just a satisfaction. Don't blame yourself for that. You may mistaken it as romantic feeling, but it's not."

"You will be alright. Everything will be fine."

The wise and tender Heart shows a mercy this time. The logical Brain completely agrees.
