And now, the end is here
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
I traveled each and ev'ry highway
And more, much more than this, I did it my way
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do and saw it through without exemption
I planned each charted course, each careful step along the byway
And more, much more than this, I did it my way
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fill, my share of losing
And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way,
"Oh, no, oh, no, not me, I did it my way"
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels and not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows and did it my way!
Yes, it was my way

ini lirik lagu 'My Way'. yang sudah banyak sekali dicover oleh penyanyi2 legendaris sekaliber Frank Sinatra (well,kalo anda ga tau dia siapa berarti mungkin anda ga pernah denger lagu2 jazz sama sekali - cari di wikipedia sana! n try to hear his songs too, he's a legend),Elvis Presley (hayoh! kalo ga tau ini siapa seh...KETERLALUAN!) and recently - Robbie Williams (...no comment klo anda ga tau ini siapa...)
gw ga tau knapa, tapi lirik lagu ini bener2 ngena banget ke gw - 'UGH' gtu pas gw denger lagu ini.
...well,maybe coz gw ngerasa isi lagu ini sesuai sama journey gw ke Jerman merantau ke negeri orang ini. Especially THIS sentence :
i DO have some regrets,bahwa gw pergi jauh2 ke Jerman bwat kuliah di sini.
gw harus ninggalin temen2 + keluarga gw, harus mulai dari nol lagi di Jerman sini, lepas tempat kuliah gw di Atma Jaya yang uda pasti dapat, ganti pola hidup gw di Jerman (yang termasuk ga bisa maen PS2, ga bisa jalan2 ke mall, ga bisa blanja2 buku+CD,HARUS NAIK BUS TIAP HARI dll...DX) - istilahnya meninggalkan zona nyaman gw di Indonesia sana. well that's my regret.
BUT.
again,that regrets are really few compared to the new experiences that i've got here in Germany.
...kadang2 seseorang harus meninggalkan 'zona nyaman'nya dan mengambil resiko untuk meraih sesuatu yang lebih baik,true? ^^
