I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy’s eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
“Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!”

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can’t explain
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn’t believe what I’d become

Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can’t explain
I know Saint Peter won’t call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can’t explain
I know Saint Peter won’t call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Okay, it’s been 2 months since my last posts. A lot of things have happened. Including me finishing my MBA study :) So i’m now in jobhunt mode. Mudah2an segera dpt rejeki dari Allah yang halal dan barokah … amiiiin.

Gue juga udah harus hengkang dari asrama tersayang gue, Graduate Hall, krn udah habis masa studi gue. Already got a place nearby Pioneer MRT (salah satu MRT terbaru di singapore … baru mulai operasional minggu lalu). The owner is a very nice Indonesian Chinese family and it’s mayan murah hehehehe …

For the past few days gue jalan2 mlulu setiap malam buat foto2 brg ama temen Malay Chinese gue, Sheng. We went to Clarke Quay, Marina Barrage, Botanic Garden, Sentosa, etc. You can check some of the photos here >> http://picasaweb.google.com/fajar.fitrianto

Oh yah, minggu lalu gue jg beli buku baru utk bahan bacaan di waktu senggang gue. It’s a book about Islamic Finance. Well, gue sendiri ga tau apa ilmu yang bisa pelajari dr buku ini bakal dpt gue praktekan nantinya di dunia nyata, tp mdh2an ilmu itu sendiri bisa membawa berkah bagi diri gue dan juga org2 lain di sekitar gue.

Life may seem fun for me at the moment. But it’s not like what it looks like. That’s just the “tip of the iceberg”. Masih banyak hal yang tersembunyi dibawah permukaan air yg tak terlihat. Still have some personal issue that I have to deal with at the moment.

Nonetheless, kalau kata orang2 tua: apapun yg terjadi dalam hidup ini, semua harus kita syukuri …. hehehehehe …. :)
