persahabatan
Apakah qm percaya persahabatan itu ada?..bagaimana persahabatan itu bisa ada?..
sebuah kebutuhan atau takdir qm bisa jadi sahabat qu?..
tp aq percaya persahabatan itu ada..
dan sahabat sejati akan selalu hadir dalam kehidupan kita,,baik itu senang atau susah..
tak perlu berkata ia pasti mendengar,,semua cerita akan tercampur dengan bumbu kisahnya..
menegur kala kita salah mengambil langkah,,menyokong kala kita mengambil satu keputusan..
bertanggung jawab walau tak ikut menyebabkan,,meniupkan hawa kedamaian kala kita terbalut dalam emosi..
dan selalu seperti itu hingga takdir memisahkan..
tentangmu
Baru saja kutulis namamu di diary harianku
Belum habis semua rasa bahagia kutuang
Haruskah kini kutuliskan tentang lara,
tentang kesendirian yang tak kutau akhirnya ?
Ku tau kau takkan pernah menjawabnya
Sebab kau pergi saat ku masih ternganga
Terbuai segala pesona rasa jatuh cinta
Haruskah kurobek semua seolah tak pernah ada ?

'SPIDER MAN' in HONG KONG
French "Spider man"Alain Robert yesterday completed his second assault on the 62-story Cheung Kong center to raise awareness of global warming.
He was publicizing website onehundredmonths.org,which is counting down the dayuntil efforts to rein in global warming pass the point of no return.
The 46-year-old from bourgogne scaled the tower in 40 minutes,watched by thousandsof onlookers and switching between the building's east and north facades just 10 stories from the roof to avoid heavy winds.
Robert said the stant was part of a three-year campaign leading up to the global warming summit in denmark at the end of the year.
He said he would do two-to-three more climbs.
Robert fell into the clutches of security guards at the top of the 283-meter building and was later released.
He previously scaled the far east finance center in 1996,the cheung kong center in 2005 and the four seasons hotel last year.
Robert complimented Hong kong authorities as"much more civilized"compared to those in new york,where he dodged a conviction for trespassing and rekless endangerment last year after he climbed the new york Times building.
