The 1975 - A Change Of Heart







[Explicit Content]
Hello, guys! Today i am going to tell you a meaning of a song. The song that i chose is "A Change Of Heart" by The 1975 from the album "i like it when you sleep for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it". by the way this band is going to jakarta on august! I'm so excited but i havent got a chance to go and see them.

 A Change of Heart” details the stages of falling out of love with someone. When the infatuation fades, you see them for who they truly are, and not who you thought they were.
It premiered on February 22nd, 2016 during Annie Mac’s Hottest Record on BBC Radio 1. Drummer George Daniel defined the “narrative” song as being by far “the most simple song” on their sophomore record. Frontman Matty Healy described it as a “pure ballad”:
It’s such a simple song – three notes – and the truth. We wanted it to [have] serious conviction. It turned into a very atypical “1975” song, being very sentimental, very self-aware, and as beautiful as we can make it.
The song incorporates concepts and lyrics from three older tracks by The 1975: “The City,”“Robbers,” and “Sex.” The official lyrics were confirmed through the band’s Twitter.
Here's are the lyrics :
Are we awake?
Am I too old to be this stoned?
Was it your breasts from the start?
They played a part

For goodness sake
I wasn't told you'd be this cold
Now it's my time to depart
And I just had a change of heart

I'll quote "on the road" like a twat
And wind my way out of the city
Finding a girl who is equally pretty won't be hard
Oh, I just had a change of heart

[Instrumental Interlude]

You smashed a glass into pieces
That's around the time I left
And you were coming across as clever
Then you lit the wrong end of your cigarette

You said I'm full of diseases
Your eyes were full of regret
And then you took a picture of your salad
And put it on the Internet

And she said, "I've been so worried about you lately
You look shit and smell a bit"
You're mad thinking you could ever save me
Not looking like that

You used to have a face straight out of a magazine
Now you just look like anyone
I just had a change of heart

I feel as though I was deceived
I never found love in the city
I just sat in self-pity and cried in the car
Oh I just had a change of heart

Then she said, "I've been so worried 'bout you lately
You were fit but you're losing it
You played a part, 'this is how it starts'"
Oh I just had a change of heart

I just had a change of heart
I just had a change of heart
I just had a change of heart
Oh I just had a change of heart
I just had a change of heart
I just had a change of heart
I just had a change of heart
I just had a change of heart


 [FYI Matty is the vocalist of The 1975]
The meaning :
Are we awake?Am I too old to be this stoned?


At the age of twenty-six, Matty is well into adulthood and is moving past the person he was when he was younger.
Matty enjoys cannabis and even wrote a song (“Chocolate”) about it. He’s aware the drug has become apart of his band’s image and questions if they’ve outgrown this phase of their lives.
The stereotypical pot smoker is a young person who can’t afford to be slacking off and getting incredibly stoned. This leaves Matty thinking that he must leave his stoner days behind to be considered a fully grown and reputable individual.
Was it your breasts from the start?
They played a part
Matty admits that from the very beginning of their relationship, the physical attributes of the girl he’s seeing played a part in his desire to be with her.
However, now that he no longer views her in the same light, her looks have ceased to matter – hischange of heart has led him to realize that the beauty she holds externally does not at all match her internally.
For goodness sake
I wasn't told you'd be this cold
Now it's my time to depart
As The 1975’s 2013 track “Settle Down” showed us, this wouldn’t be the first time Matty has encountered a “cold” partner:
His change of heart led him to be aware of her true chilly personality, which he previously overlooked. He takes this as a sign that their relationship is about to hit closing time, and decides that simply leaving would be best.
Oh, I just had a change of heart (same for the other lines)
To have a “change of heart” is to move to a different opinion or attitude. The content of the song suggests that Matty has begun to notice the flaws within the girl he’s seeing. Her unkind statements and the belief that she is in some way his savior, have caused him to look at her in such a negative light that he views her as average.
As the phrase is repeated constantly throughout the song, Matty has stated before that he uses repetition within lyrics (such as in “Me,”“Robbers,” and “Sex”) to hint at the meaning of the song.
She’s no longer what he wants, and he feels tha the was deceived into believing she ever was.
I'll quote "on the road" like a twat
And wind my way out of the city
Finding a girl who is equally pretty won't be hard
This implies that Matty is running away from a beloved city, most likely his home town, in search of something to fill his emptiness—a good-looking girl whose presence can overshadow what the city has to offer.
Artist David Templeton, who once gave Matty a copy of Jack Kerouac’s “On The Road” knew that the origin of the bands name was inspired by snippets of writing in the back of a Kerouac poetry book dated “1 June, The 1975”. Taking shots at twats for quoting Kerouac is a humorous way of derisively referring to his own band.
You smashed a glass into pieces
That's around the time I left
And you were coming across as clever
Then you lit the wrong end of your cigarette
Its exactly what it says (duh)
You said I'm full of diseases
Your eyes were full of regret
During an argument, she attempted to insult Matty by saying he was diseased – more than likely referring to an STD and implying that he had been promiscuous in the past. Although Matty himself has acknowledged behavior like this in songs such as “Sex,” her use of it as a weapon crosses the line and she immediately regrets the outburst.
Alternatively, she could be targeting his inner demons, calling him out on past troubles and traumas, such as his drug addictions and other destructive tendencies.
However, because she’s too proud to admit she was wrong, she continues on without an apology which only further damages their already ailing relationship.
And then you took a picture of your salad
And put it on the Internet
Following the girl’s inability to admit she was wrong by insulting Matty, she attempted to avoid the confrontation by taking a photo of her meal and posting it on social media. As “Love Me” suggests, Matty dislikes this.
This lyric also fuels the rumor that “A Change of Heart” is rooted within Matty’s relationship with his now ex-girlfriend, Gemma Janes. During the time period that their relationship was reportedly terminated, she posted a photo of her salad on Instagram.
In an interview with Liz Joyce, Matty said:
I’m off the grid, I’ve gone, I’ve disappeared, I don’t deal with it anymore. That’s what I wanna get tattooed on my chest: OTG forever 
 And she said, "I've been so worried about you lately
You look shit and smell a bit"
You're mad thinking you could ever save me
Not looking like that

The narrators increasingly estranged relationship with reality is interrupting their basic personal hygiene and causing worry among those close to them. They conceded that in order to accept assistance from another, they must be self-reflexive and truly understand the narrators internal struggles.

You used to have a face straight out of a magazine
Now you just look like anyone

A throwback to one of the band’s most iconic songs, “Robbers”:
As well as a similar lyric in “She Way Out”:
From Matty’s view, she was as beautiful as models presented in magazines, but now that they’ve reached a point in their relationship that’s more raw and honest, he’s begun to take notice of her dumb habits, unkind words, and addiction to social media.
Matty’s perspective has now changed—the girl that had once been unrivaled amongst the many in his eyes has now faded in with everyone else.
I feel as though I was deceived
I never found love in the city
I just sat in self-pity and cried in the car
A play on the popular chorus from one of their older songs, “The City”:
The hope for finding love that Matty previously held has deteriorated, as he realized during his change of heart that he did not, in fact, find a reallove in the city.
The lyric channels the fragile, vulnerable emotions pouring out of him as he sits in solitude, pitying himself for thinking he had found something real with someone who was completely different.
Then she said, "I've been so worried 'bout you lately
You were fit but you're losing it
You played a part, 'this is how it starts'"
Already filled to the brim with lyrical throwbacksto tracks off of their debut album, The 1975, one more is added before the song closes – “Sex”opens with similar lines
The integration of lyrics from older songs could be meant emphasize the changes that have occurred, including the band’s image change—the old lyrics (and thus, old feelings) are contrasted against the new.
The girl Matty’s been seeing has noticed a difference in his behavior due to his “change of heart,” most likely occurring after he realized that the love he’d found in the city with her wasn’t truly real.
[Conclusion]
For me, this song is the feeling you got when you have an opposite gender-friend but she's very close to you. it was all fun and game until one of them falls in love. sometimes it became harder. sometimes even the girl want to keep away from you. this is all the stage of falling in love.

Education to build a better future for all

Education to build a better future for all

            Education is a very important thing in our world. It affects everything. It affects us, other people, our future, mostly our lives are affected by education. We cant live without education. We need it since we were born and raised in this world. There’s this one quote I’ve seen and it is one of the greatest quotes about education, it is “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid” – Albert Einstein
            So, one of the biggest problems in our education especially Indonesia, is that all people should take the same subjects. Which is around 14 subjects. According to the quote I’ve mentioned before, you can’t judge people just by one ability (in this case a subject). You cant judge people just by one subject, you cant just tell a person is stupid just because that person is bad at math? What if he/she actually has an ability that is so amazing? What if he/she is good at sport? Or art? But the person never facilitated on their talents? That’s why you cant force people to do what the person’s not good at.
            In Indonesia, you need to study like around 14 subjects. Which means a lot of our times are spend at school. At subjects we are good at, and subjects that we don’t even want to study about it. Our intelligence were just rated by a test at some subjects. Back to the quote above “it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid” what actually happened when a person live his/her life believing that he/she is stupid is the person got stressed. Stressed could make a student do bad things, start from behaving bad to parent, do forbidden things like smoking, drinking, etc. but when all of the bad things happen, lots of people blamed the students. It is actually his/her fault, but not all of it was the person’s fault. that’s why it is wrong to force student to study a subject that the person isn’t good at.
            To make a good student, a student should know their own talent and ability. After knowing their talent, school should divide them into classes they’re good at. this make the student more confident, and even give the student a lot more intention in studying. Which cause the student to be more intelligent in his/her subject. But that doesn’t mean that students don’t need to study other subject. It still needs to be balanced by other subject such as moral and life lessons. Because there’s this other quote “a world is not destroyed by bad people, it caused by the good people who are letting bad people do it” so a lot of intelligent people actually bad too. Not because they’re not smart, but because they don’t have morals. The government is actually a bunch of smart people, right? But why does a lot of government commit crime? It’s because they don’t have morals.

Nglanggeran Ancient Volcano

The name of Nglanggeran comes from Java language ''Planggaran''. The word has a meaning whenever there is bad behavior would be discovered. I came there when I was visiting my older brother in Jogja.
 
It placed long from city center. It located at Baturagung, along the northern part of Gunung Kidul or about 30 kilometers from city center of Jogja. It takes along journey but we guarantee that your long journey will be pay off with exotic scenery. Along the way you will find the green rice field and the winding road that will be a challenge for you. To reach this place, it better if you take your own car or motorcycle because there is no public transportation.

Nglanggran Mount is not known by many people including people around Jogja. This mountain are consists of clusters of mount there are Blencong Mount, Gedhe Mount, Buchu Mount and Bingos Mount. All of mount's names taken from the names of the puppets because according to the mythical story this place manned by puppet characters that called Punakawan.

This place is very suitable for climbers. Reportedly until now there is no one who can climb up to the peak. To reach the peak, it takes about three till five hours. After passing through some of the steep road, you can rest for a moment to enjoy the natural scenery is breathtaking. There is provided some shelter by the managers. Your journey will pay off with the scenery around you those very beautiful and distinctive cool mountains,

This tourist attraction is different from other attractions. It composed of clusters of towering mountains and high hills. The hills are not a form of karsts rocks as is usually found in Gunung Kidul area but the old type of rock formed by volcanic activity that occurred around millions of years ago.

Students Leadership Training (LKS)

Hi, Today I'm going to tell you about LKS. LKS is a leadership training made for students. This kind of event is expected to make us a great leader and make our mental stronger. So, the LKS in SMAN 3 Bandung was held at Thursday, November 5th - Saturday, November 7th 2015. It was placed in Rindam III / Siliwangi. It was like a military base (if I'm not mistaken). I was kind of afraid to face this training, because my brother always said "it will be fun" i thought it was a joke. Because my brother's LKS is way more scarier and evil.

So, the first day I went there by a car, bring my huge bag (my daily school bag still heavier than this tho) and we all sit in a line. Our name were called one by one, and i just don't know why the soldier named Lois Panjaitan is so funny just the first time I met him. And that's why our LKS isn't as crazy as my brother said.

After that, there's a presentation, and then we had lunch. Before eating our lunch, we have to sing a song. it sounded like this :
  
  Bila waktu makan telah tiba
  Segera menuju ruang makan
  Bangkitkan semangatmu pelajar
  Siapkan perut untuk diisi

   Jangan lupa habiskan nasi
  Juga dengan lauk pauknya
  Sayur mayur juga disikat
  Hindarkan bicara dengan teman

 We have to sing this song every time we arre goint to eat. And then there's some rule while eating. We must sit really straight, only our right hand  that is allowed to be on the table, don't make any noise, and our hand that approach our mouth. not our mouth approach the hand.

I'm not going to tell you about the training, presentations, and stuffs like that because it's not fun to be told here right? so, next I'm going to tell you about other weird things. when we take a bath/shower (we don't literally take a bath or shower because there was none of them) we have to shower really quick. and you know what? It's a toilet for us all. there's no wall or something to separate each of us. That's why we didn't take off all of our clothes. I didn't even take a bath, guys. I just brush my teeth and wash my face and hair.

And there's a really stupid incident. Seven of us (not me) were caught 'stole' something from the canteen. but someone said it was a total lie. but we need to walk like a duck for a few minutes.
That's all the fun i could tell.

My friend, Rezky

Hello I'm going to tell you about my friend. His name is Rezky. first time I met him was at MOPD or student orientation. It was the first day of school. I'm one of those shy guy who doesn't want to talk except when I'm told to do it. The first day was just the school explanation and then all of us went to IPA3 class. I came in last, so i didn't get a chair. but then I sit next to Rezky. we were told by the bingus (pembimbing gugus) or the group leader to talk to each other and introduce ourselves. first impression when i saw Rezky was like "oh my god, he looks like a kid. he looks so smart and polite."

That's how I met Rezky. Now, I'm going to describe him physically. He's cute, he's got a funny hair, his voice also sounds like a kid. He is also short (well I am short too) and he wears glasses. He was a student at SMP 5 Bandung. he;s got an older brother named Refin, they looked alike, unlike me and my brother. And now I'm going to decribe his character and behavior. he is very diligent, he does all of his homework at the time it has to be collected. even tough sometimes the homework won't be checked. He also got a really good memory. and he always explain some things that i don't understand when I ask him to. And he does it really well. He is also 'pundungan'.pudungan is like a feeling where you're kind of disapointed, sad, and ashamed. I can't really explain the word "pundungan" because it's a sundanese word. Another annoying thing about him is he likes to sing at class. His voice isn't really bad and annoying. what's annoying is that he sings dangdut a lot. But sometimes it's very funny.

Introduction

Hi, my name is Muhammad Rafif Cahyadi Agung. I was born in Bandung at 21st of January 2000. I live at Permata Cimahi R2-29. I have two brothers. My older brother's name is M. Bimo Bagaskara Agung. He's 19 years old. He studies at gajah mada university (UGM) at insdutrial engineer faculty. My younger brother's name is m. Luqman al fadhil Agung. He's 9 years old.

My hobby is listening to music and playing music. I can play bass guitar, keyboard, drum, some vocal (which doesn't sound really good) but all of those instrument I learned by myself so it is only the basic except guitar.

My favorite genre of music is alternative rock and indie rock. The bands I hear the most are arctic monkeys, the 1975, Coldplay, And 5 Seconds of Summer, but my favorite band is Arctic Monkeys.
the reason why i like Arctic Monkeys is because their genre is powerful and I listen to them when i want to escape from reality. and also all of these band are my inspiration because I also want to be a musician. and also I want to be a youtuber. i thought it was easy but it was so hard. beside preparing some stuff like cameras, audio equipments that cost a lot, you've got to be famous.but if i don't have a talent how could i be famous? there's one funny thing. when i open my youtube account, there's a text said "lifetime earnings : $0.01" I was like.. "at least i earned some money". that's why i kinda give up of my dream being a youtuber. well i know i'm not an optimist. But being an architect is my main profession that I want to be.

Gamarvani







Hello! This time I’m going to tell you about gamarvani. Gamarvani is an event held by SMAN 3 Bandung. It takes place at Bali field (Lapangan Bali) It is a cultural event. This event takes story about Nyi Anteh.

Because I was one of the committee, I was at Bali field the day before the event. I came there at around 2 o clock. Everyone was so busy, they were all doing stuffs like carrying things, moving things, discussing, check sound, and there’s a rehearsal by some of the performers. After the meeting, I stayed at my friends “kosan” to take a rest and wait for my father to came. Then, I arrive at my home at around 9 o clock.
Saturday, 19 September 2015 I arrived at Bali field at 5 o clock in the morning. There was a meeting. After the meeting, all of the committees were so busy. I haven’t had breakfast at that moment, so I went to mcdonald’s and bought some food and coffee to wake me up.
08:00 The gate was finally opened! So, all of the food stand and food trucks opened. But there wasn’t a lot of people came yet. At 13:00, my team and I had to do our work. Which is traditional games. Raka and I prepared the ‘congklak’ and ask people if they want to play, because the winner could get a ticket to Ancol or Trans Studio Bandung. 15:00 and it’s time for us to stop. I walked around to buy some foods and drinks.

At around 16:00 the place started to get crowded. I think the event got more exciting when “tisti” (theatre performance from SMAN 3 Bandung) performed. After that there was a wayang performance, but I didn’t watch it because I have to pray. After that, Rizal and I bought a litre of mineral water (so, if we got thirsty we don’t have to go through the crowd again to buy a drink) and run through the crowd. Luckily, we got to the front row, so we could see the performer clearly. But I think the sound would be clearer if we get a bit further to the back. The first guest star is Adera (honestly I don’t know who is this guy) we waited for a quite long time for this guy to show up. And then the second guest star is HiVi. They’re a band/music group. They were so great (even though I’m not a fan of them) especially when the fireworks were blasted up to the sky (I think I describe it too alay) I jumped a lot even though I don’t know the song. It was so exciting. The event finished at around 22:30. I was so hungry because after maghrib I couldn’t buy some food because it was all the way back and I had to go through the crowd. So I decided to eat in other place. But I suddenly remember it was too late to find a place to eat. You know what? I went to mc donald’s, again. After that I went back home and I arrived at 00:00 (because my house is at cimahi) I was so tired and my legs really hurts.
