Talking To The Moon

I know you're somewhere out there somewhere far away
I want you back
I want you back
My neighbors think
I'm crazy
But they don't understand
You're all I have
You're all I have

At night when the stars
light up my room
I sit by myself

Talking to the Moon
Try to get to You
In hopes you're on the other side
Talking to me too
Or am I a fool
who sits alone
Talking to the moon

I'm feeling like I'm famous
The talk of the town
They say I've gone mad
Yeah
I've gone mad
But they don't know what I know

Cause when the sun goes down
someone's talking back
Yeah
They're talking back

At night when the stars
light up my room
I sit by myself
Talking to the Moon
Try to get to You
In hopes you're on
the other side
Talking to me too
Or am I a fool
who sits alone
Talking to the moon

Do you ever hear me calling?
Cause every night
I'm talking to the moon
Still trying to get to you

In hopes you're on
the other side
Talking to me too
Or am I a fool
who sits alone
Talking to the moon

I know you're somewhere out there
Somewhere far away

*love this song~
it reminds me of everything

Jason Mraz - Try Try Try

Oh baby we can fight like dogs we can fight like cats
A dirty laundry needs a laundry man
Maybe the king and the queen should lay off the caffeine
Baby breathe before you react

Sometimes we do forget to behave
And we regret what we say
Cause words are too weapons
If we don't choose'em carefully
Ladies and gentlemen this is instrumental
If life's to be a bed of roses

I know i gave you everything you like
Because you still give me butterflies

If we just try try try
Just to be ni-ni-nice
Then the world would be a better place for you and I
If we just live our lives
Putting our differences aside
Oh that would be so beautiful to me

Are we just dangling in the middle of a galaxy
Well i'm stoked on gravity
To be stuck with you like flowers on the dew drops
Now let it in my direction
My direction is up when everybody's down
Cause i don't mind being anybody's clown
I love a little lift cause i'm an optimistic
In an altruistic way

Cause basically this place is needing instruments of harmony
Spreading my philosophy of love and inspiration
Oh these words I speak I commit to like a crime
With a rhythm i deliver i'm giving them a picture
Of the reasons why

We should just try try try
Just to be ni-ni-nice
So the world could be a better place for you and I
If we just live our lives
Putting our differences aside
Oh that would be so beautiful to me

Well it wouldn't cost a penny but could save so many lonely lives
From teary eyes
If we just try try try
To open up a can of understanding open up your heart
I'm just planting seeds
Cause i believe

We could just try try try
Just to be ni-ni-nice
So the world would be a better place for you and I
If we just live our lives
Putting our differences aside
Oh that would be so beautiful to me

If we could try, just to be nice
That could be so beautiful to me
I believe,
Oh that could be so beautiful to me

Satu Perjuangan Selamat Berjuang

Brothers - Satu Perjuangan

Syukur Pada Yang Esa
Rahmat PemberianNya
Persaudaraan, Keharmonian

Jalinkan Kasih Sayang
Hulurkanlah Bantuan
Kepada Yang Memerlukannya

Mari Kita Bina Satu Ummah Majujaya
Mula Diri, Keluarga, Sahabat
Masyarakat Dan Negara

Dengan Satu Perjuangan
Satu Arah Tujuan
Di Bawah Rahmat Yang Esa

Kita Melangkah Seiringan
Satu Perjuangan

Rintangan Pasti Melanda
Jangan Undur Walau Selangkah
Teruskan Perjuangan
Hingga Ke Akhirnya
Andai Kau Gugur
Andai Kau Syahid
Kau DiredhaiNya


Brothers -
Selamat Berjuang

Malam Siang Berlalu
Gerhana Kesayuan
Tiada Berkesudahan
Detik Masa Berlalu
Tiada Berhenti Oh Syahdunya

Sejenak Kuterkenang
Hakikat Perjuangan
Penuh Onak Dan Cabaran
Bersama Teman-Teman
Harungi Kehidupan Oh Indahnya

Berat Rasanya Di Dalam Jiwa
Untuk Melangkah Meninggalkan Semua
Kasih Dan Cinta Yang Terbina
Ia Akan Selamanya

Selamat Berjuang Sahabatku
Semoga Allah Berkatimu
Kenangan Indah Bersamamu
Takkan Ku Biar Ia Berlalu
Berjuanglah Hingga Ke Akhirnya
Dan Ingatlah Semua Ikrar Kita

Hati Ini Sayu Mengenangkan
Sengsara Di Dalam Perjuangan
Jiwa Ku Merana Dan Meronta Mengharapkan
Kedamaian Dan Jua Ketenangan

Tetapi Ku Akur Pada Hakikat
Suka Dan Duka Dalam Perjuangan
Perlu Ketabahan Dan Kekuatan

SOYUZ TMA-13 (12 October 2008)

Garriott is a British-American video game developer and entrepreneur, known as his alter egos Lord British in Ultima and General British in Tabula Rasa.
A figure in the video game industry, Garriott originally a game designer and programmer and now engages in various aspects of computer game development and business.

On 28 September 2007, Space Adventures announced that Garriott would fly to the International Space Station in October 2008 as the sixth space tourist, reportedly paying US$30 million.

During his spaceflight, Garriott took part in several education outreached efforts.
He is an Amateur Radio Operator (callsign W5KWQ) and during his stay on the International Space Station (ISS), he communicated with students and other Amateur Radio operators using Amateur Radio.
Garriott also transmitted photographs using the ARISS SSTV amateur radio syatem.

Garriott also worked with the Windows on Earth project, which provides an interactive, virtual view of earth as seen from ISS.
Garriott used the Windows on Earth software to assist in the selection of locations on Earth to photograph and the public were able to use the same online tool to track the ISS and see the view he was experiencing out an ISS window.
His photographs, along with images taken by his Astronaut father Owen Garriott in 1973, will be available to the public through Windows on Earth, adding a personel element to studies of Earth and how Earth has changed over time.

He is the first affspring of an American Astronaut to go into space and the second person to wear the British Union flag in space.

Garriott became the ninth inductee into the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences' Hall of Fame in 2006.

STS-44 Atlantis (24 November 1991)
STS-54 Endeavour (13-19 January 1993)
STS-77 Endeavour (19-29 May 1996)

Served on the crew of STS-44, that successfully deployed a defense support program (DSP) satellite.
In addition, the crew conducted two military man-in-space earth observation experiments, three radiation-monitoring experiments and numerous life sciences experiments in support of long duration space flights.

Served as a mission specialist on the crew of STS-54.
The six-day mission featured the deployment of a NASA Tracking and Data Relay Satellite (TDRS-F) and carried the Diffuse X-Ray Spectrometer (DXS) in the payload bay.
This astronomical instrument designed to expand the knowledge of stellar evolution scanned the local vicinity of our Milky Way galaxy and recorded the low-energy X-Ray emanations believed to originate from the plasma remnants of an ancient supernova.

In what was called the "Physics of Toys", which has since become popular children's education video, the crew also demonstrated how everyday toys behave in space to an interactive audience of elementary school students across The United States.

Served as a mission specialist on the crew of STS-77, which carried a number of technology development experiments as well as a suite of a microgravity science experiments.
The technology development experiments included two deployable satellites both of which he deployed.
For the deployment of the Spartan/Inflatable Antenna Experiment, Mario was The Remote Manipulator System (Robotic Arm) operator.
The other deployable was a small Satellite Test Unit (STU), Which used residual atmospheric drag and the Earth's magnetic field for attitude control and stabilization.

He also filmed some additional Physics of Toys scenes for a sequel to the original educational video and subsequently made several appearances on the children's television show Sesame Street.

One of the first six scientist-astronauts selected by NASA.

His first space flight abroad Skylab in 1973 set a new world record for duration of approximately 60 days, more than double the previous record.
Extensive experimental studies of our sun, of earth resources and in various life sciences relating to human adaptation to weightlessness were made.

His second space flight was abroad Spacelab-1 in 1983, a multidisciplinary and international mission of 10 days.
Over 70 separate experiments in six different disciplines were conducted, primarily to demonstrate the suitability of spacelab for research in all these areas.

He operates the world's first amateur radio station from space,W5LFL, which has since expanded into an important activity on dozens of Shuttle Flights, Space Station MIR and now The International Space Station, with scores of Astronauts and Cosmonauts participating.
