The Soundtrack of a Rainy Day

When the day is grey, the sky is full of dark clouds, lightning strikes from the sky above. 

A rainy day? A storm? Cold weather?

Sometimes we associate a rainy day with bad weather. On a rainy day you cannot hang out with your friends, eat your favorite meal at your favorite cafe, and any other outside activities. 

All you can do is just sit inside all around the day, and watch the rain pouring down from the sky. 

See the good things! You have the chance to calm your mind from all the busy works outside. 


For those lazy activities maybe you will need a little bit of soundtrack to brighten up your day.  So, here I will provide you a list of chilling music from Indonesian indie bands. Perhaps you might be unfamiliar with these name but I assure you that their song is so good and full of deep meaning. Indonesia is not only about 'dangdut' or cheesy song lyrics, here proves that Indonesia has many good pieces of music. 

These are Indonesian indie songs that will calm your stormy heart and mind:
  1. Banda Neira - Sampai Jadi Debu
  2. Fourtwnty - Fana Merah Jambu 
  3. Nosstress, Fendy Rizk, Raoul Wjffels - Seperti Dia 
  4. Mocca - I Remember
  5. Payung Teduh - Kucari Kamu
  6. Endah N Rhesa - Long-Lost Friend
  7. Fiersa Besari - April
  8. Fourtwnty - Aku Tenang
  9. Dini - Minor Song of Mine
  10. Danilla - Ini dan Itu
  11. Senar Senja - Bersenjagurau
  12. Payung Teduh - Untuk Perempuan Yang Sedang Di Pelukan 
  13. Barasuara - Sendu Melagu
  14. Rumahsakit - The Journey Starts Tonight
  15. Vira Talisa - If I See You Tomorrow

You can listen to those song on Spotify.

So, when it is raining outside and there is nothing you can do but stare out your window and thinking of the good old days, you can listen to those songs. Perhaps those songs do not fit in your music taste, but I hope you give these songs a try when you would like to listen to music on a rainy day.

Short Story Analysis : A Haunted House by Virginia Woolf

A Haunted Hous e by Virginia Woolf             Whatever hour you woke there was a door shutting. From room to room they went, hand in hand, lifting here, opening there, making sure—a ghostly couple.             “Here we left it,” she said. And he added, “Oh, but here too!” “It’s upstairs,” she murmured. “And in the garden,” he whispered “Quietly,” they said, “or we shall wake them.”                But it wasn’t that you woke us. Oh, no. “They’re looking for it; they’re drawing the curtain,” one might say, and so read on a page or two. “Now they’ve found it,” one would be certain, stopping the pencil on the margin. And then, tired of reading, one might rise and see for oneself, the house all empty, the doors standing open, only the wood pigeons bubbling with content and the hum of the threshing machine sounding from the farm. “What did I come in here for? What did I want to find?” My hands were empty. “Perhaps it’s upstairs then?” The apples were in the loft. And so down a

Poem Analysis : The Rose Family by Robert Frost

The Rose Family by Robert Frost The rose is a rose, And was always a rose. But the theory now goes That the apple's a rose, And the pear is, and so's The plum, I suppose.
