the eames era: a furnicraving

because it's a herman miller's chair. but this one is even vintage. sure it has bruises here and there. bla. bla. bla.

hmmm. herman miller. is that the guy from the munsters' family. nah. that's herman munster.

what! don't tell me you don't know herman miller!

well. maybe you could guess from the clueless-ness of my face.

anyway. he is famous. and it's a dream chair. bla. bla. bla.

okay. just nod and smile as if you agree and in awe.

 

as you could guess. i googled after that. and would gladly inform any of you. that herman miller is a office furniture manufacturer. and is well known for his eames lounge chair. guess that should be the chair in the above conversation.

in that case, i was glad that i don't even want to know how much, where or even how he got it. and yes, even though i cannot afford it. i want it too. the herman miller's eames lounge chair. the one of black leather with the plywood shells.

it looks something like this:

drop dead bored

is there any new and exciting adventure that i am interested in

that i have not been in?

i would really like to know. then get both of my feet on it.

just because he walk passed your booth every second or two,

and gave you his 'my bed is empty for another month if you're up for it' smile,

doesn't necessarily mean he is up for grab.

-that is unless you happened to speak french and arabic.

i care not with humanity or any other good virtues, because:

to own a house then furnish it is my only reason for living

ingin sembahyang..

hei, kamu!
sajadahku kedinginan,
menunggui jidatku yang enggan merantuknya.

hei, aku!
jiwamu menggigil,
menampiki pelukmu yang kerap menggamitnya.

..tapi malas setengah mati

..and the ugly duckling will never be the pretty swan

aku suka ini. meskipun musik intronya sepintas mirip kings of convenience.

kau begitu sempurna, di mataku kau begitu indah
kau membuat diriku akan s’lalu memujamu
di setiap langkahku, ‘ku kan s’lalu memikirkan dirimu
tak bisa kubayangkan hidupku tanpa cintamu

janganlah kau tinggalkan diriku
takkan mampu menghadapi semua
hanya bersamamu ‘ku akan bisa

kau adalah darahku
kau adalah jantungku
kau adalah hidupku
lengkapi diriku
oh sayangku, kau begitu … sempurna

kau genggam tanganku, saat diriku lemah dan terjatuh
kau bisikkan kata, yang hapus semua sesalku

it is a somewhat related to what i do for living that i have been dying to see ted braun's 'darfur now.' a documentary movie about the crisis in sudan.

after mylai and the real hotel rwanda, i am now horrible-scenes-proof. still i despise war.
