Musicology/Sociology

In this July Edition of the Magazine I've been working on, kita ngangkat tema music. Pas meeting dibahas lah what kinda music yang mau di bahas. Diputusin kalo 80's music yang bakalan jadi intinya. Si 80s ini ternyata berkembang jadi nostalgia status sosial di ruang meeting. I'm not disapproving, cuma makes me remember that old days to, i wouldnt say it was bad, it's just un-wanna-go-back-there-again. My 80's and mid 90's is probably the most exhausting social environment Ive ever been through. I was in this private school yang menganggap semua yang ga penting jadi penting. Kayanya, tiap hari ada bulletin (or dare I say Clue Magazine hihi) yang kita harus baca tiap hari, karena kalo ga tau akan jadi orang yang sangat ga penting. Tapi si bulletin ini invisible, jadi ngeliatnya harus pake mata dan kuping yang sangat-sangat peka. Karena this little detail ga mungkin diumumin begitu aja, everything yang udah out loud itu udah basi. Get it?

Yah begitulah, these details lah yang coming back di perang pamer ruang meeting, yang ternyata jadi berhari-hari maybe ampe majalah naek cetak. They loved it so much, maybe coz they were the happening people back then, (n they still are) and they now these tiny things much much more than I do (of course they are older). It just made me think, they could be nice n friendly to me right now, but back the they could the ones intimidating me, n making my life such a lame thing. And whether they know it or not, thats what theyre doin now.Pameran yang ampir sebulan ini akhirnya dirangkum di main artikel, yang mesti di lay out satu halaman saja, imagine the screaming and the shouting of knowing it all. Kesimpulannya, tergantung where your social inviroment is, kalo anak BMX dengerinnya ga mungkin sama ama anak slow rock, after all music is identitas diri.

Notice that i'm not writing about any music or any songs? Coz kalo ditulis, I would feel like exactly what they're doin.
