one more time, one more chance

This song is an OST of an anime, 5 cm per second: a chain of short stories about their distance [秒速5センチメートル: アチェインオブショートストリーズアバウトゼアディスタンス Byōsoku Go Senchimētoru: a chein obu shōto sutorīzu abauto zea disutansu]. The anime somehow leaves a deep impression on me, about how a love or your life can't always be had. Distance will always be a problem. Although you've put your greatest effort to keep your feelings for your lover, the space between you and him/her still can't be fought.



ONE MORE TIME, ONE MORE CHANCE

(Masayoshi Yamazaki)

kore ijyou nani wo ushinaeba kokoro wa yurusareru no

dore hodo no itaminaraba mou ichido kimi ni aeru

One more time kisetsuyo utsurowanaide

One more time fuzakeatta jikan yo


If I lose any more than this, will my heart be forgiven

How much pain before I can see you again

One more time, please don't change the season

One more time to the time when we fool around


kuichigau toki wa itsumo boku ga saki ni oretane

wagamama na seikaku ga naosara itoshikusaseta

One more chance kioku ni ashi wo torarete

One more chance tsugi no basho wo erabenai


When our path cross each other, I am always the first to turn

Making me indulge more in my selfish way

One more chance tripped by memories

One more chance we cannot choose our next place


itsudemo sagashiteiruyo dokka ni kimi no sugata wo

mukai no HOOMU rojiura no mado

konna toko ni iru hazu mo nai noni

negai wa moshimo kanau nara imasugu kimi no moto e

dekinai koto wa mou nani mo nai

subete kakete dakishimete miseru yo


I am always searching somewhere for you

Opposite of the house, the other side of the alley's window

Even though I know you won't be here

If my wish is to be granted, please bring me to you right now

Betting and embracing everything

To show you there's nothing else I can do


sabishisa magirasu dake nara dare demo ii hazu na noni

hoshi ga ochisouna yoru dakara jibun wo itsuwarenai

One more time kisetsu yo utsurowanaide

One more time fuzakeatta jikan yo


Anybody should be fine if it was just to ease loneliness

Because the stars in the night sky seems like falling, I cant lie to myself

One more time, please dont' change the season

One more time to the time when we fool around


itsudemo sagashiteiruyo dokka ni kimi no sugata wo

kousaten demo yume no naka demo

konna toko ni iru hazu mo nai noni

kiseki ga moshimo okoru nara ima sugu kimi ni misetai

atarashii asa kore kara no boku

ienakatta "suki" to iu kotoba mo


I am always searching somewhere for you

Even at the intersection and dream

Even though I know you won't be here

If miracle was to happen, I want to show it to you right now

A new morning, myself

and the "I love you" which I couldn't say


natsu no omoide ga mawaru

fui ni kieta kodou


Summer's memory is revolving

The sudden disappearance of heart beat


itsudemo sagashiteiruyo dokka ni kimi no sugata wo

akegata no machi sakuragi chou de

konna toko ni kuru hazu mo nai noni

negai ga moshimo kanau nara imasugu kimi no moto e

dekinai koto wa mou nani mo nai

subete kakete dakishimete miseru yo


I am always searching somewhere for you

At dawn's town, At Sakuragi street

Even though I know you won't come here

If my wish is to be granted, please bring me to you right now

Betting and embracing everything

To show you there's nothing else I can do


itsudemo sagashiteiruyo dokka ni kimi no kakera wo

tabisaki no mise shinbun no sumi

konna toko ni aru hazu mo nai noni

kiseki ga moshimo okoru nara ima sugu kimi ni misetai

atarashii asa kore kara no boku

ienakatta "suki" to iu kotoba mo


I am always searching somewhere for your fragment

At the destination's shop, At the corner of the newspaper

Even though I know you won't be there

If miracle was to happen, I want to show it to you right now

A new morning, myself

And the "I love you" which I couldn't say


itsudemo sagashiteshimau dokka ni kimi no egao wo

kyuukou machi no fumikiri atari

konna toko ni iru hazu mo nai noni

inochi ga kurikaesu naraba nandomo kimi no moto e

hoshii mono nado mou nani mo nai

kimi no hoka ni taisetsu na mono nado


I always end up looking somewhere for your smile

At the railway crossing of the fast pace town

Even though I know you won't be here

If life can be repeated, I'll go to you many times over

There's nothing else that I want

Nothing else is more important than you

How to Ghibli?

That time of the year, again. Why can't life be more like Ghibli's aesthetics? It has been a while for me to be in my 30s, and soon I will be turning 40. What will one expect when one turns into a 40-year-old woman?  Why can't life be like Ghibli's slice of life feature films? Why can't we find ideal love like in those movies? 3 years ago today I still can't imagine that I finally found out that my (back then) spouse was a serial cheater, a swinger, and an avid liar. My whole life was crumbled, and my mind went crazy, like literally mad (will tell this someday when I'm ready). And briefly after that, I met a random guy, got married again in such a short time, and have a baby not long after. Back then, no one really cares about how I feel inside, my messed up mind is still there up until now. So, what to do?

#9: Happiness

  Day 9 of 30 days writing challenge. Happiness I am everything but happy right now, I'm sorry. Not really in the mood to talk about happiness so today we'll be off topic. Not happy now. Just heard a heartbreaking news about work-related stuff, and the feel of rejection is similar with the one that I felt during my apprenticeship year, when I heard that my Studio Coordinator gave me an E so I have to do another year again (8 hours credits do it another year, he hated me gut and my window shape , so yeah I'm screwed). Always thought that drawing buildings isn't my thing, but I stuck there nonetheless. Come to think of it, my undergrad years were full of sh*t and sadness, there's always this lecturer that hated your design. And you felt like crap). I cried back then, on the rooftop of RRI building where my project management took place. I'm not always bright, I've been through hell. And it's not sweet. Anyways, I'm not unfamiliar with this kind of f...

#4: Places on My List

Day 4 of  30 days writing challenge. Places on My List Been obsessed with these places, and wished the pandemic soon to be over so that we can go there and enjoy life and love to the fullest. Cambodia I don't know why, been dreaming on going to Siem Reap  for about two years now. The thoughts of going there seemed exquisitely charming and the old temples--although some said similar to what we have in Jogja --look mysterious.  Ancient stone faces of Bayon temple, Angkor, Cambodia.  Photo: iStock (https://www.traveller.com.au/siem-reap-cambodia-things-to-do-expert-tips-from-an-expat-h1ju19) Maybe i'm a bit influenced by Tomb Raider and Indiana Jones , always love those kinds of movies (and games). I remember when I was a child, there's this TV show about treasure-hunt and stuff (I forgot the title, sorry) where the main character flew a seaplane in a tropical island looking for treasures, some in ancient ruins. I also preoccupied by One Piece , a superb manga created ...
