November Rain - Guns n Roses

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain
We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain
But lovers always come and lovers always go
An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today
Walking away
If we could take the time to lay it on the line
I could rest my head
Just knowin' that you were mine
All mine
So if you want to love me
then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'
In the cold November rain

Do you need some time...on your own
Do you need some time...all alone
Everybody needs some time...on their own
Don't you know you need some time...all alone
I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you

Sometimes I need some time...on my
own Sometimes I need some time...all alone
Everybody needs some time...on their own
Don't you know you need some time...all alone

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain, ohhh yeahhh
I know that you can love me
When there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
Even cold November rain


Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Say Googninght

Say Goodnight as Bullets For My Valentine


Heaven's waiting for you
Just close your eyes
And say goodbye
Hearing your pulse
Go on and on and on

I live my life in misery
I sacrificed this world to hold you
No breath left inside of me
Shattered glass keeps falling

Say....
Say goodnight
Just sleep tight
Say goodnight...

Flowers laid out for you
So many colors leave me blind
Seeing your face reflect from our babies eyes

I live my life in misery
I'd sacrifice this world to hold you
No breath left inside of me
Shattered glass keeps falling

Say...
Say goodnight
Just sleep tight
Say goodnight

So here I am
You're inside of me
So here I am
Our world is over
So here I am
You're inside of me
So here I am
our world is over

Here I am with you
I'm there 'til the end
Memories are calling
So farewell my friend
Farewell my friend!

Here I am with you
I'm there 'til the end
Memories are calling
So farewell my friend

FAREWELL MY FRIEND!
MY FRIEND
MY FRIEND
MY FRIEND
MY FRIEND

He was also responsible for the creation of the acronym "A7X".[1] He is left-handed. He taught himself how to play the guitar when he was thirteen.

He would also read each edition of Guitar World cover to cover, learning the tabs of the songs published in there and watching the professionals perform it until he got it right.

Mengapa Tokek Bisa Menempel di Dinding?


Mengapa Tokek Bisa Menempel di Dinding?


Tokek atau cecak bisa menempel di dinding tanpa perlu mencengkram. Itu karena kaki-kaki tokek di tumbuhi rambut-rambut halus (setae) yang sangat banyak. AdaPara ilmuan bilang bahwa tokek sanggup menanggung beban ratusan kali berat tubuhnya, jadi, tokek beratnya 80 gram 500 ribu helai rambut deh di tiap kakinya. Ukurannya juga super keci, Cuma 10 mikron. Pada ujung tiap rambut tumbuh 100 hingga 1000 rambut yang lebih keci lagi, namanya spatula. Setae dan spatula inilah yang menimbulkan daya lengket luar biasa. Konon setiap helai spatula mempunyai daya lengket sebesar 10 nanonewton. Daya lengket itu terjadi karena tarik-menarik antar molekul kaki dengan permukaan yang di injak. Daya tarik-menarik ini punya nama keren, Van der Waals. Gabungan tenaga tarik-menarik dari miliaran setae dan spatula itulah yang membuat yang membuat tokek, cecak, dan laba-laba bisa merayap pada dinding dan permukaan kaca. Tetapi walaupun seperti merekat erat, kaki tokek gampang dilepaskan. Itu karena daya antar molekulnya sangat lemah. sanggup menahan beban sampai 163 kg. maka itu tokek bisa merayap pada tembok dalam posisi telentang.

1001 Manfaat Ekskul


Biarpun berambisi jadi juara kelas, kamu dilarang belajar 24 jam dan anti EKSKUL. Tanya kenapa? Ekskul diyakini para pakar bias memperkuat kemampuan kamu wahai para siswa dalam mengambil keputusan, memetik pengalaman berharga, serta mengarahkan kamu menemukan jalan menuju masa depan. Wuiiihhhh,, penting banget kan tuh. Makanya, kamu jangan berkutat di perpusakaan aja dong. Cepat cari info ekskul apa saja yang ada di sekolahmu.

Faktanya
 Menurut Montana State University Extension Service, siswa yang terlibat aktivitas ekskul lebih berpeluang menjadi pemimpin, lebih giat mengerjakan tugas sekolah, lebih berani menyuarakan opini, lebih berpeluang lulus sekolah menengah (hari gini masih banyak loh teman-temanmu, bahkan dinegara semaju Amerika Serikat, yang nggak tamat SMA), dan lebih berpeluang mendapat gaji tinggi. Ekskul juga merupakan sarana yang baik untuk menggali minat social, politik, dan karier. 

Memetik Pengalaman Melalui Aktivitas Ekskul

 Aktivitas ekskul membantu siswa memetik pengalaman di berbagai bidang. Pengalaman-pengalaman itu kelak berguna bagi masa depan. Dengan beradaptasi dalam kegiatan olahraga, siswa belajar cara bekerja sama, membangun kerja tim, dan mengelola waktu. Dengan menjadi pengurus organisasi, siswa belajar bertanggung jawab, memecahkan masalah, dan berkomunikasi. Kegiatan ekskul juga membantu siswa menemukan bakat terpendam, bertemu orang-orang yang mungkin sukar di temui di luar ekskul, serta belajar hal-hal di luar lingkungannya.  

Bagaimana Memilih Ekskul

 Tapi bagaimana caranya siswa menjatuhkan pilihan dari beragam ekskul yang ada di sekolah? Haruskah siswa memilih ekskul sesuai bakat yang sudah diketahuinya agar bertemu dengan teman-teman seminat dan sehoi? Ataukah dia harus bergabung dengan ekskul yang sama sekali baru dan berbeda, supaya dia bisa berinteraksi dengan orang yang punya pendapat serta keterampilan yang berbeda? Ada siswa yang nyaman dengan perkembangan, tapi ada pula siswa yang lebih betah dengan perasaan familiar. Sesuaikanlah dengan dirinya.

 Siswa yang menikmati aktivitas outdoor sebaiknya ikut klub pecinta alam atau olahraga lainnya. Siswa yang suka membaca mungkin senang bila bergabung dengan klub sastra atau madding. Kegiatan ekskul juga merupakan sarana yang baik untuk belajar menghargai aktivitas baru dan berbeda. Siswa yang dipastikan menyukai sepakbola atau basket, sebaiknya mencari pengalaman baru dengan ikut klub panah atau olahraga dari jenis yang sangat baru. Memilih ekskul yang jauh berbeda dari wilayah aman siswa akan memperluas wawasan serta menambah pengetahuannya. Bersikap terbuka pada jalur-jalur akan memperkenalkan siswa pada teman-teman serta ide-ide baru.

Ekskul Apa Saja yang Tersedia

Ekskul bukan hanyatersedia di sekolah. Banyak juga lembaga atau perusahaan yang membutuhkan bantuan siswa dan bersedia menerima siswa dalam program magang. Dengan ikut program magang, siswa bisa mencatat pengalaman kerja sejak usia dini serta mendapat pengalaman berharga di bidang karier. Sementara itu kalau siswa sudah tahu karier apa yang akan ditempuhnya, aktivitas ekskul bisa membantunya memuluskan jalan menuju karier impiannya.

Berapa jam yang akan dihabiskan dalam Seminggu untuk ekskul yang kamu minati?

 Penting bagi kamu untuk mengecek jadwal ekskul. Jangan sampai ekskul menghabiskan terlalu banyak waktu kamu sehingga pelajaran sekolah kamu terbengkalai.Kamu harus punya cukup waktu untuk mengerjakan PR, tugas, istirahat, dan gaul bersama teman dan keluarga.
 Ekskul harus menggenapi, bukannya memperumit kehidupan siswa. Kalau siswa terlibat dalam terlalu banyak ekskul yang menghabiskan waktu belajarnya, siswa akan stress dan nilai-nilainya akan anjlok. Orangtua pasti akan marah dan guru keberatan.

Menjadi Pengurus Organisasi

 Menjadi pengurus organisasi juga disarankan Karena mengajarkan siswa beragam keterampilan. Kepemimpina dan pengelolaan tanggung jawab bisa dicapai dengan menjadi ketua organisasi. Jabatan seketaris atau tim dokumentasi mengajarkan siswa keterampilan menulis dan jurnalisme. Bendahara belajar keahlian pembukuan serta mendapat pengalaman menangani uang. Setiap jabatan menurunkan keahlian yang dapat digunakan di masa depan. Nggak ada ruginya deh..!
 Banyak siswa yang berani mencalonkan diri sebagai ketua osis kemudian berkembang menjadi ketua partai politik atau CEO perusahaan multinasional. Menjadi kandidat ketua osis memberi pengalaman pengelolaan kampanye, membuat iklan, dan merengkuh dukungan massa. 

Komitmen

  Belajar menuntaskan pekerjaan dari awal sampai akhir juga merupakan pelajaran penting yang bisa didapat dari ekskul. Sekali memutuskan bergabung dalam sebuah perkumpulan, aktivitas, atau kepanitiaan, siswa harus bersungguh-sungguh menjalankan komitmennya, bahkan bila di tengah jalan muncul aktivitas yang tidak kamu perkirakan sebelumnya. Dengan belajar memegang teguh komitmen dari awal hingga akhir, siswa mendapat pelajaran berharga yang pasti berguna di masa depan. Siswa tidak rawan drop out sekolah dan kuliah, berhanti bekerja sesuka hati, atau memutuskan hubungan pribadi terlalu dini.
 Kelak kalau kamu melamar kerja, perusahaan akan membaca daftar riwayat hidup kamu dengan seksama. Kalau kamu menyebutkan pernah aktif berorganisasi, mereka akan memandang kamu dengan positif dibandingkan kandidat yang tidak pernah berorganisasi.
 Ikut ekskul juga bisa menjadi sarana pelepas stress dan membangun kepercayaan diri serta harga diri. Siswa butuh dorongan semangat untuk mengejar cita-citanya. Nah, semua itu bisa direngkuh dengan ikut ekskul. Ayo! Cepetan..! Tunggu apa lagi?!

Mikey Way



Mikey Way

window.google_render_ad();
Mikey Way was born Michael James Way, on September 10, 1980 in Newark, New Jersey, where he grew up. He is the younger brother of Gerard Way, (with whom he has a very close relationship, and is also Scottish/Italian, like his brother). Mikey is related to Joe Rogan, Host of the NBC game/stunt show Fear Factor and former cast member of the sitcom News Radio (Joe is Mikey's mother's cousin's son). Growing up, Way worked for Barnes & Noble, in addition to being an intern at Eyeball Records (the company that put out My Chemical Romance's debut album, I brought You My Bullets You Brought Me Your Love in 2002). The first concert he ever went to was a Smashing Pumpkins concert.
My Chemical Romance
Mikey is the bassist of the band My Chemical Romance, and only learned bass in order to play in his brother's band. He dropped out of college for the sole purpose of playing in My Chemical Romance He plays both A Highway 1 Precision Bass, and a Fender Standard Precision Bass. Mikey was also responsible for the band's name, which came from an Irvine Welsh novel Ecstasy: Three Tales of Chemical Romance. He and Gerard's grandmother, Elena, happened to buy them their first tour van. Before he joined My Chemical Romance, Mikey auditioned for Frank Iero's (rhythm guitarist for My Chemical Romance) band, Pencey Prep. He did not make the cut. During the few first shows My Chemical Romance played, Mikey drank liquor heavily to mask his extreme stage fright. Today, Mikey resides with Frank when the band is recording.
Interests
His favorite band is Anthrax, and can often be seen wearing his signature Anthrax shirt. Mikey is a recovering iPod junkie and an iPod battery hoarder. His favorite food is sushi and claims that he could eat his body weight in it. Schlock horror films are his absolute favorite. Mikey loves unicorns. He has a pet cat named Bunny Marie Way whom he loves. Bunny has a myspace. On the opposite hand, he hates small spaces, large and open spaces, and shopping for groceries.
Personal Life
Mikey is engaged to Alicia Simmons. The rumored wedding date is said to May 17th, 2007, but this is strictly an Internet rumor. Simmons is a guitar tech and merch seller among other things. She played surrogate guitarist for From First to Last in 2005. They currently are living together in Brooklyn, New York City, and are very happy with one another. Recently, Mikey and Alicia got matching tattoos on their wrists. The tattoo(s) consist of a heart shaped jar with flames emitting from it; across the jar reads, "FOREVER".
Injuries
Mikey is nearsighted (scroll down for details). Mikey has been pretty lucky, considering the only injuries he's ever gotten were liver damage, a few broken toes (an epic battle with a brick wall), and multiple respiratory infections, as well as being bassist in the top-charting band, My Chemical Romance.
Glasses
The younger Way's trademark was his glasses, but that all changed in May of 2006. Mikey got Lasik eye surgery that corrected his nearsightedness and made the glasses superfluous. He no longer wears glasses. As quoted from Mikey's myspace page: "At the young age of 9 years, Michael James Way was struck with the affliction known as nearsightedness. Unable to see such things as the chalkboard, the movie screen (or anything more than 5 feet away) the lad was forced to get corrective lenses. Michael and his glasses spent many fruitful years together. They saw each other through the good times, as well as the bad. In May of 2006 this friendship came to a crashing halt. Michael's glasses met their end tragically, by way of Lasik eye surgery. The glasses leave behind two loving brothers, Ray Ban, Paul frank, and their father Chanel. Viewing times and dates will be announced shortly."
Quotes
"There's less violence in the world when people are using Hula-Hoops.""I'm the spiritual advisor of the band.""This band is metal in that we have a lot of metal in our instruments, and there's quite a lot of metal on my belt buckle as well.""Yeah, I'm kind of upset that I'm going to die tomorrow." (On the "Ghost of You" video)"We always had a vision but we weren't sure if it would translate of just come off as Pretentious." (On starting the band) "We all have very humble backgrounds and very geeky interests." "I could eat my body weight in sushi." "Ashlee Simpson told me she had our CD." "Yeah, I had a headache, really bad. I was in a gas station and there was a pot of coffee and I looked at it for about a minute and then my brother (motions at Gerard) got a coffee and he taunted me." "We're really greedy about the electricity in our iPods. We hoard it. We're like, 'Yo, I'm only on half a fuck battery and I have a plane ride!'" "I like Popsicles."
Frank: "Has goldfinger ever had a flock of mooses advancing on him? It's a terrifying sight."Mikey: "That's not the plural of moose, it's moosi."Gerard: "Fuck off, it's meese."
