Letter to myself.

Dear self, Thank you for being so patience. Thank you for trying hard at your lesson, you know, it's only a beginning so just try harder and don't give up! You know you can do it better! You have to be stronger in taking critics too. Maybe you are not being loved by everyone, but what matters is you love yourself and your surroundings. Don't be scare even though at the future it will be even harder, maybe a thousand times harder that it is now. People will be super competitive, but you have to catch up with them. Don't forget to play too, don't be too stressful about life and just enjoy it. Enjoy every moment and be aware about it, you don't know who you're gonna meet that's gonna change your life. When people mean to you, just ignore them, believe in yourself. Have faith in you own capability, don't underestimate yourself. Pray more to god and always hope for the best and nothing but the best :) Thank you.

ps. If by any chance Lee Taemin read this; you are super cute, I love your voice and your dancing, keep up the good work! ...you can freely email me anytime you want here ;)

decisions, decisions.

"At the end of the day faith is a funny thing. It turns up when you don't really expect it. Its like one day you realize that the fairy tale may be slightly different than you dreamed. The castle, well, it may not be a castle. And its not so important happy ever after, just that its happy right now. See once in a while, once in a blue moon, people will surprise you , and once in a while people may even take your breath away."

Today is 12/11/2010. I have done a hell lot of thinking these days. In a way that I can't even close my eyes at night even though I was so tired, and million of thoughts just flashing and appearing randomly. Do I make the right choice? Am I worth it? I have the loudest mind in by brain.

I hope all my friends achieve their dreams, the way they want it to be. I hope we all become something new to this world. I love them so much and I love everything about everything.

"I’ve lived the way I wanted to. I’ve walked the road the way I imagined it. I think I will continue to do that in the future." amen.

Korea Indonesia Friendship Festival 2010 | review

This is what happened yesterday. I didn't get the ticket for the concert. I want it so bad so I decided to just go to senayan without having the ticket. When I got there, I was surprised to see that there was actually two kind of tickets, Indoor and Outdoor. There people who sell the outdoor ticket for Rp200.000 at first. There was only one thing.. Outdoor means literally outdoor, and we were supposed to watch them on a slide. I was like, dear god, what kind of human would sell such tickets. There were people who offered us to go inside by paying the security. It was kind of shocking. Of course, I want to watch it as well, but who said any of these guys are honest. Long story became short, I bought the Indoor tickets for @ Rp375.000 from a man outside that was going to sell it to me for @ Rp600.000 at first.

The show was amazing. The Shinee boys were really put it out there, I expect nothing less. The beautiful and colorful lightsticks were all over Tennis Indoor Senayan. The crowds inside only want one thing: friendship. The atmosphere was as beautiful as I tried to describe it. I love being in a concert, honestly. I just enjoy spending my time in a place where everyone feels like one.

After the show finished, the crowd were rushing like crazy. They were like a storm coming out of nowhere. I was confused because I didn't know where to go, or why was everyone in such a hurry? Then I asked someone and she said that shinee was going to go out that way. No one really knew anything, they were just hoping they got to see their idols for the last time.

While I was going to go to the parking lot, there were a group of people crowding around the building. I asked them and again, they said that the boys were going this way. I waited there a little while and there were polices and securities. I was thinking, "they are going this way? they must be out of their mind to try to cross the crowd!" And hell it was. They Shinee boys came out of the door with securities pushing the crowd away. It was really dangerous because the fans were mostly girls I get carried by the crowd and it was like the click five video "catch your wave." watch it. you will know. The girls were pushing and I solemnly said that I almost die back there. Thank god I am still alive.

I am not gonna describe about how Shinee looks in real life, they were as gorgeous as we have seen in television. A lot of girls had been pushed away and fell. And someone slipped into the sewer as well. I must say this was not a right way to enjoy this. No offense but somehow the securities was kinda suck. All this time I watched concerts and this was the first time I saw the performer got out of the building by passing the crowds. It was suicidal wasn't it? After I got out of the crowd (still alive and well) people were still rushing and pushing each other!

It was so different with John from Secondhand serenade, I must say. My friends and I were offered to go to the meet and greet after the concert. With about 15 other people we sang secondhand serenade's song when john walked in and it was beautiful. But with this one, outside, were crazy sick.

I hope next time they could built better security, better performance, and better relationships between the two countries. (they must do something with the unofficial seller and scam).

Sad day

I've been a little bit depressed lately, with all the school stuff especially. It is killing me slowly but surely.. I know that it has to be done somehow, but I just can't change my attitude. I need to be much much better than I am now if I want to succeed. I need to improve myself, constantly. I think that I need to be grateful for what I am now right? Because I am a big, big, believer of the law of the universe. I believe in karma, I believe if you do good deeds, someday it will all come back to you. I believe of the power of positive thinking, I do believe everything is possible. There is no limitation to what a man can achieve in this world.

It was a shock to me that the LPTUI's result was way beyond my expectations. first of all, they suggested me to go to MIPA major which was -> Matematika Ilmu Pengetahuan Alam. Oh come on, seriously? I want to take business so bad. I want to make my own business from zero into something big. I know that I'm not good at communication with people, I know I am being really awkward with strangers, but I know this is what I want. (after MIPA they suggested me to go to visual arts, or teknik)

Disappointment, story of my life. Again I am being disappointed by the scores, teachers, friends, people, and everything. On the bright side.... I am still alive and well. Alhamdulillah :)

They love to tell you, "stay inside the lines"

Outside, it is raining hard and you can hear the thunder occasionally.

I have tons and tons of stuff to do right now, but my mind is somewhere else. It has been an intense senior week. studying my ass off on something that is not important, I hope I can achieve it. Doubts are starting to pop up in my brain, but I still want the best. Trying to catch up with the other peeps and so on. Pray for me and I'll be praying for you too. I hope you are happy. At least try to. I know you, I know you can :)


All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost…

The Fellowship of the Ring, J.R.R. Tolkien

Sometimes you wake up. Sometimes the fall kills you. And sometimes, when you fall, you fly.

Fables and Reflections, Neil Gaiman

I hated labels anyway. People didn’t fit in slots—prostitute, housewife, saint—like sorting the mail. We were so mutable, fluid with fear and desire, ideals and angles, changeable as water.

White Oleander, Janet Fitch

I’ve been making a list of the things they don’t teach you at school. They don’t teach you how to love somebody. They don’t teach you how to be famous. They don’t teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don’t teach you how to walk away from someone you don’t love any longer. They don’t teach you how to know what’s going on in someone else’s mind. They don’t teach you what to say to someone who’s dying. They don’t teach you anything worth knowing.

The Kindly Ones, Neil Gaiman

I’m like that. Either I forget right away or I never forget.

Waiting for Godot, Samuel Beckett

The trouble with my generation is that we all think we’re fucking geniuses. Making something isn’t good enough for us, and neither is selling something, or teaching something, or even just doing something; we have to be something.

A Long Way Down, Nick Hornby

What if she was meant to be, or could have been, someone important in my life? I think that’s what scares me: the randomness of everything. That the people who could be important to you might just pass you by. Or you pass them by. How do you know…I felt that by walking away I was abandoning [them], that I spent my entire life, day after day, abandoning people.

Someday This Pain Will Be Useful To You, Peter Cameron

I always think of each night as a song. Or each moment as a song. But now I’m seeing we don’t live in a single song. We move from song to song, from lyric to lyric, from chord to chord. There is no ending here. It’s an infinite playlist.

Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist, David Levithan

See, the poor dream all their lives of getting enough to eat and looking like the rich. And what do the rich dream of? Losing weight and looking like the poor.

The White Tiger, Aravind Adiga


pray for me for 12 October 2010.

quotes.

When I feel bored I just search for quotes on the web, books, or any medium I can find. This is my favorite so far. Enjoy :)

My meaning simply is, that whatever I have tried to do in life, I have tried with all my heart to do well; that whatever I have devoted myself to, I have devoted myself to completely; that in great aims and in small, I have always been thoroughly in earnest.

David Copperfield, Charles Dickens

‘Now you see,’ said the turtle, drifting back into the pond, ‘why it is useless to cry. Your tears do not wash away your sorrows. They feed someone else’s joy. And that is why you must learn to swallow your own tears.’

The Joy Luck Club, Amy Tan

A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.

The Twits, Roald Dahl

‘That proves you are unusual,’ returned the Scarecrow; ‘and I am convinced that the only people worthy of consideration in this world are the unusual ones. For the common folks are like the leaves of a tree, and live and die unnoticed.’

The Land of Oz, L. Frank Baum

A great friendship was like a great work of art, he thought. It took time and attention, and a spark of something that was impossible to describe. It was a happy, lucky accident, finding some kindred part of yourself in a total stranger.

Masterpiece, Elise Broach

It seemed like someone was always leaving someone, like that’s the way the world worked—people were born and people died, people left and people came. It was like the world was saying you can’t have everything you want at the same time.

Lena, Jacqueline Woodson

You can’t always be pushing people away. Someday nobody will come back.

The Dear One, Jacqueline Woodson

I don’t think I could love you so much if you had nothing to complain of and nothing to regret. I don’t like people who have never fallen or stumbled. Their virtue is lifeless and of little value. Life hasn’t revealed it’s beauty to them.

Doctor Zhivago, Boris Pasternak

We were all brought up to want things and maybe the world isn’t big enough for all that wanting. I don’t know. I don’t know anything.

Rabbit Redux, John Updike

Usually we walk around constantly believing ourselves. “I’m okay” we say. “I’m alright”. But sometimes the truth arrives on you and you can’t get it off. That’s when you realize that sometimes it isn’t even an answer—it’s a question. Even now, I wonder how much of my life is convinced.

The Book Thief, Markus Zusak

And I saw them in silhouette. Running after the sun. Then, I started running. And everything was as good as it could be.

My sister showed this video to me, it is japanese. I don't understand the language but I do understand the story. It's about an old man who comes back to his old school.. and together they open the time capsule. And the rest of the story is.. you'll see at the end ;)

"It’s like looking at all the students and wondering who’s had their heart broken that day, and how they are able to cope with having three quizzes and a book report on top of that. Or wondering who did the heart breaking. And wondering why."

"But it still felt like a good-bye rather than a “see ya.” The thing was, I didn’t cry. I didn’t know what I felt.
Finally, Sam climbed into her pickup, and Patrick started it up. And a great song was playing. And everyone smiled. Including me. But I wasn’t there anymore.
It wasn’t until I couldn’t see the cars that I came back and things started feeling bad again. But this time, they felt much worse." -the perks of being a wallflower

"A couple of hundred years ago, Benjamin Franklin shared with the world the secret of his success. Never leave that till tomorrow, he said, which you can do today. This is the man who discovered electricity. You think more people would listen to what he had to say. I don't know why we put things off, but if I had to guess, I'd have to say it has a lot to do with fear. Fear of failure, fear of rejection, sometimes the fear is just of making a decision, because what if you're wrong? What if you're making a mistake you can't undo? The early bird catches the worm. A stitch in time saves nine. He who hesitates is lost. We can't pretend we hadn't been told. We've all heard the proverbs, heard the philosophers, heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time, heard the damn poets urging us to seize the day. Still sometimes we have to see for ourselves. We have to make our own mistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today's possibility under tomorrow's rug until we can't anymore. Until we finally understand for ourselves what Benjamin Franklin really meant. That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the worst, beat the hell out of never trying." -Meredith Grey (Grey's Anatomy)

How do you measure a year in a life

What do you want to be? This is a question that I've heard over a million time this year. This year is the final year of high school. This is the top of the top. For me, it is just a stage in a life. It's important of course, because you don't want to regret it in the future, so you do your best, you strike all that you've got this year, and just wish that you are the lucky ones. And in the end, you wish you were right.

One of my friend, my classmate will go to study abroad for a year, and he will be gone on Wednesday. This is also very sad. When you go to a new place, you have to adapt to everything, the way you act, the way you dress, even the way you think. As we all know, a lot of things can happen in a year. When I went to summer camp on 2008 for three weeks, that whole experience changed me completely. I have a different point of view, a new perspective, a lot of lessons, and even the little things made me into who I am today. I am a different person. That was three weeks. This is a question I've been asking myself "How about a year?"

Anyway, life's getting pretty busy and it's not going to be any less busier. Currently just trying to catch up with the people. Finding some interesting things to do along the way to this year. Hoping for the best, but I don't think I give enough effort into everything (yet, hopefully). Friends come and go, and each of them has made a huge impact into who I am today, I am sincerely grateful. Life hasn't stopped here and there are more interesting people to meet in the future. Goodbye, thank you :)

"So how can you tell me you're lonely,
And say for you that the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind.
Have you seen the old girl Who walks the streets of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags?
She's no time for talking, She just keeps right on walking
Carrying her home in two carrier bags."
-Streets Of London, Ralph McTell

And here it is, the song that tells you to stop complaining about how lonely you are and know that you are luckier than most of the people in the streets. This song keeps me alive.

Everything is Impermanent.

When I was small, I like to watch Anime. The one that I think was remarkable was Twin Spica. It is a story about a short girl who dreams to be an astronaut someday. It might seems impossible at first, and there are so many obstacles along the way, like how she passed the tests, how she was able to catch up with the physical tests, how there was no astronaut's uniform that fit her because she was short. Asumi (who was the main character) found her friends along the way, Shinnosuke, Shu, Kei and Marika.. they somehow managed to be friends regarding their past.. Then they made a promise to finish their education and to chase after their dreams no matter how hard it is.

Honey and Clover was also great. My favorite character is Takemoto. I like that scene when they all watched fireworks together. I remember that quotes (if I'm not mistaken which I probably am) "you might not remember the shapes and the color of the fireworks, but you will always remember the faces of the friends next to you." I like that quotes because it is relevant to me.

Well, that's all from me and my gibberish talk. mind my english, still learning. To sum up, I think friends do find each other, no matter how far, I think God designed it that way so we could never be alone :)

A day when everything is perfect, when everything will turn into memories, will eventually come. But I’ll probably remember over and over again. you were there and everyone else was there. The day we all searched for just one thing. – Takemoto

It’ll be about 10 more years until we’re sensei’s age. Then we’ll be a bit over 30. I wonder what kind of adults we’ll be? Even though it seems far off in the distance, tomorrow turns into today and today changes to that day. It’s all connected without ever ending. One day, we’ll be more mature too and it’ll seem as if we didn’t have a childhood. – Takemoto

All I have to say.

Gue dan teman-teman akhirnya berhasil menjalankan rencana Bali Trip kita! Kita akhirnya berhasil pergi ke Bali sendiri!! Awalnya gue kira mempersiapkan liburan itu mudah, tinggal tentukan destinasi lalu berangkat. tapi ternyata tidak begitu, yang harus dipersiapkan itu jauh lebih ribet, mulai dari perizinan sampai jadwal. Tapi Alhamdulillah semuanya berjalan dengan lancar. (cerita selanjutnya coming soon)
The University
Mengenai jurusan, sepertinya gue sudah tau bakal memilih universitas apa.. yaitu SBM ITB. Gue sudah mencoba searching internet kira kira sekolah bisnis terbaik apa ya.. ternyata (seperti biasa) mayoritas di amrik atau inggris. Kenapa? Kenapa bisnis? padahal orang gak sekolah aja bisa bikin bisnis. Menurut gue, bisnis itu merupakan bidang yang sangat menantang, karena gak semua orang bisa sukses dalam bisnis. Dalam berbisnis, dibutuhkan seluruh kemampuan dari seorang individu, gak bisa tanggung-tanggung, gak bisa separo-separo. Orang yang bilang bisnis itu gampang, salah besar. Lagipula bisnis itu bukan sekedar urusan dengan kontrak-kontrakkan ataupun uang doang kok, bisnis itu penting dan sehari-hari kita juga selalu berbisnis, entah sama temenlah tanpa sadar kita juga sudah melakukan bisnis. Analogikanlah seorang penyanyi, sebagus apapun tuh orang nyanyi, tanpa ada manajemen yang bagus, gak bakal bisa terkenal.

Artinya gue harus pindah ke luar kota. (sebenernya rumah gue juga udah di Depok sih jadi termasuk luar kota)

Senior High School
Sekarang gue udah kelas 3, kata orang sih harus serius. Kata nyokap juga udah disuruh kurangin jalan lah belajar ini lah bimbel itu lah. Tapi gue juga gak mentang mentang kelas 3 harus melupakan kesenangan duniawi maksudnya ya tetap bersosialisasi juga, main masih, bedanya gue kalo lagi belajar ya gak main, lagi main ya kagak belajar. Semua harus tetap seimbang, Yin and Yang lah. Sekarang kelas juga udah beda lagi, si Nabila udah naik level jadi ke kelas A, gue tetap di kelas B. Terus suasana kelasnya beda banget juga karena orang-orangnya diputar lagi.

Setelah Bali, gue merasa menjadi lebih mengenal teman-teman gue. Walaupun sering main bareng, dulu tuh mungkin gue belum bisa dibilang temen juga kali ya, karena belum benar-benar "mengenal" mereka. tapi sekarang rasanya gue udah bisa mengenal karakter mereka satu-satu dan ternyata berbeda dari apa yang gue pikir dulu. Dalam arti baik, gue merasa sangat beruntung. Gue bersyukur ada orang yang mau menerima gue apa adanya jadi temen mereka, masih ada orang yang mau jujur dan mengkritik gue, terus peduli juga.

the climbing.

"Everybody wants to be on the top of the mountain. but most people forget that it is the climbing that matters."

Kadang kita lupa ya, pingin dapet nilai bagus, pingin buat bangga orang tua, pingin yang lain lain lah sampe akhirnya kita kalap. Kita jadi rela ngelakuin apa aja buat dapet nilai bagus, nilai sempurna, karena apalah yang anda sebut harga diri. Saya disini bukan orang yang jujur-jujur amat juga. Tapi saya hanya diingatkan oleh quotes diatas itu.. jadi mulai sekarang saya akan berusaha untuk meraih cita cita saya dengan cara yang jujur, dan dengan keringat saya sendiri.

you never know until you're there.

Jumat. 21 Mei 2010.

Hari jumat kali ini lain dari biasanya. mengapa itu? karena itu berarti tinggal 10 hari lagi menuju tanggal 31 Mei, yang merupakan hari saya mempresentasikan karya ilmiah saya. Walaupun tinggal 10 hari kurang 12 jam ini, saya presentasi yang berarti bentar ya saya hitung dulu 10 x 24 jam -12 jam= 240 jam - 12 jam yang berarti sisa waktu saya.. adalah.. 228 jam lagi! sangat banyak bukan!

Tapi saya punya firasat positif mengenai karya ilmiah ini.

Sebenarnya saya berjanji pada nabila untuk mengerjakan kimia dengan nada nada sok "udah gue aja yang bikin" tetapi ya belom selesai juga sekarang. Sebenarnya saya ini bukan pemalas, saya ini sebenarnya sangat rajin loh. Tetapi kadang sulit bagi saya untuk melupakan kehidupan duniawi yang tidak berguna ini.

Positif sajalah, tidak ada yang tidak mungkin di dunia ini. Nilai menurun? selaw masih ada UUS kok.. kalo mau juga bisa remed, tapi ya kalo gue sih males remed karena harus belajar lagi terus pulang sekolah harus di sekolah dulu males pol.

Target hari senin Karya Ilmiah jadi. tidak ada yang tidak mungkin lah. Walaupun ngebut bukan berarti jelek, walaupun lama bukan berarti bagus.

Judul karya ilmiah saya adalah: pengaruh hereditas dan lingkungan terhadap kecerdasan.

Setelah membaca buku, saya sadar bahwa setiap manusia itu punya kemampuan yang unik.

Ya, anda adalah penerus masa depan *mario teguh style* <- ngarang abis.

java trip to Bali Trip

saya berada di kelas XI. dan saya dalam waktu dua bulan, akan menjadi anak kelas XII.

itu artinya saya akan menjadi senior. senior di sekolah ini. yang artinya. saya. sudah. nyaris. dewasa.

di kelas sebelas ini, memang banyak hal yang terjadi, gue mulai bermain main dan mencoba hal baru yang mengasyikan. mendapat teman dan kehilangan teman dan mendapatkan teman. semua hal itu terjadi dalam waktu satu tahun. Dalam waktu yang singkat penuh tangis haru ini, sebenarnya prioritas saya saat ini adalah untuk tidak lengser kelas.

Jika anda bertanya kepada saya 5 jam yang lalu, saya akan menjawab prioritas saya adalah membeli tiket pesawat. alhamdulillah, tiket pesawat sudah dibeli (penuh tangis haru). dan sekarang prioritas saya berubah menjadi untuk tidak lengser.

komentar aneh pun terlontar apabila anda online bersama saya kemarin. kata-kata seperti, "gua mau mencekik diri sendiri." dari mulut gue. nah itu karena stres, tertekan. tapi gue dan nabila tetap tahu bahwa Allah mempunyai rahasia dibalik semua perjuangan ini.

Tadi beli tiket tuh waduh, tremor deh gue. ngitung duit sebanyak xxxxx juta cash lagi, warna biru dan merah banyak sekali. gue jadi membayangkan apabila saat itu ada razia, terus di tas gue ada duit sebanyak itu, terus pas di periksa di kantong gue bawa panadol, wah jangan-jangan..... tapi saya tetap berperilaku layaknya malaikat, tidak mempunyai nafsu akan duit duit itu.

yes we can do it.

tell me you'll remember, forever young.

it is indeed my favorite song from the academy is. When I look at the MV, it triggers so many emotions inside me, I think it is because the polaroid they took and the tone inside this mv, it looks old and somehow really beautiful.

so long good night.

berhubung topik kemaren malam itu adalah perpisahan, bukan perpisahan juga sih tapi masa depan.. gue jadi sedih. terus alyssa juga sedih. terus kayaknya semuanya jadi sedih.

kenapa tiba tiba ngomongin perpisahan? jadi ceritanya ada guru bahasa inggris yang mau keluar nah kita sejak kelas satu itu udah diajar sama guru tersebut, terus walaupun rasanya kesel banget bangetan sama guru itu tapi pas dibilang dia mau pergi tuh rasanya gimana gitu, kayak pasti ada yang ilang. nah terus gw kepikir, kayaknya nanti pas udah pisah yang kita inget bakal yang bagus bagusnya doang deh.. sengeselin apapun tuh orang pasti bakal ngangenin.

Emang sih ada yang bilang satu taun itu lama, tapi gue mikirnya gini aja mau lama, mau sebentar kek tetep aja ujung-ujungnya tuh misah. ya idup sendiri sendiri lah dimana tau, ada yang merantau lah ada yang tau deh ngapain tapi yang paling ngaruh tuh, kita udah gak ada di SMA lagi. Jadi orang-orang yang ada di sini sekarang, udah gak disini lagi. sedih sekali tapi apa mau diperbuat lah, hidup itu tuh begini. hidup tidak sebatas bersenang senang di SMA.

tapi untuk sekarang, yang begini begini aja cukup deh. ada yang baik, nyebelin, caper, emo, ansos, kocak, ngelawak, penjilat, player, malaikat, setan, religius, genius, sinus (?) tapi kalo dipikir yang begini bakal ngangenin banget bangetan. kalo pelajaran mah ya kali gue bakal inget, inget dua hari aja udah bagus, tapi peristiwa yang mendidik yang terjadi di sekitar itu yang bakal gue inget sampe tua nanti. nanti pas gue udah jadi nenek nenek gitu "cu... dulu nenek seperti ini..." huuuhuuu sedih sekali.

kayaknya gue bersyukur banget deh bisa punya pengalaman kayak sekarang ini. (emoticon nangis)

someday you will meet amazing people that will inspire you to do great things in life.

what I do.

sudah lama tidak mengupdate blog ini. sekarang saya sedang duduk di kelas 2 SMA, yang kata katanya sih adalah level dimana kita bisa bersantai santai dan bersenang-senang tapi kenyataannya tidak seindah itu. Tugas masih bertumpuk juga, tapi saya sudah dapat mengantispasinya karena sejak saya masuk IPA sudah di wanti-wanti oleh guru dan orangtua bahwa tugasnya akan banyak, tapi lebay juga sih sebenernya saya suka menumpuk tugas.

Kelas jurusan saya pun lumayan menyenangkan, anak-anaknya sangat pintar dan kompetitif dalam arti yang sehat, juga terkenal dengan adanya jenius di kelas yang gosipnya bisa menyerap pelajaran walaupun tidur, saya menjadi semakin tertantang di kelas ini. saya dan nabila ingin menerapkan sistem harmonis jepang dimana kami saling mendukung untuk mendapatkan hasil terbaik dengan cara yang sehat (bermain tap tap di kelas kimia), yaitu berusaha untuk tetap jujur dan mengerjakan tugas tepat waktu (yang masih belum juga). Saya yakin di kelas ini akan banyak yang mendapat promosi untuk naik level, dilihat dari prestasinya yang mengagumkan sampai guru matematikanyapun tercenganga. Kami juga sering belajar bersama alyssa, firly, dan lucky di rumah nabila, terkadang hasilnya kurang efektif karena otak saya bootingnya cukup lama, jadi pada akhirnya hanya nabila dan firly yang belajar.

Terkadang di akhir semester, kami suka kelabakan sendiri dikarenakan suka menunda nunda tugas, tapi kami tetap kerjakan secara santai dan seadanya. Di hari jumat saya suka melancong ke rumah temen cilandak sampai malam. Di hari sabtu pagi biasanya saya atau fani merencanakan hal-hal untuk dilakukan, lalu mengajak orang via internet (twitter, plurk, msn) sampai lumayan rame baru jalan. Aktifitas kami untuk hari sabtu biasanya buang buang duit tapi terkadang lumayan produktif juga.

Teman-teman saya sangat menyenangkan dan suka melawak dan membuat saya tertawa terpingkal-pingkal. Terkadang saat ada yang ke luar kota nitip brownies atau bokepotjes abis itu makan bareng-bareng. Aktivitas yang kami lakukan juga sangat seru seperti ke puncak dan lari pagi di senayan.

Akhir-akhir ini saya sedang sibuk mengurus al-izhar olympic 5 sebagai kordinator panitia bazar amal. Ceritanya sedikit lucu bagaimana saya bisa berakhir menjadi kordinator karena niatnya saya ingin menjadi panitia cabutan saja, tidak disangka seksi bazar yang cuman beranggotakan 3 anak kelas XI dipecah jadi tiga. jadilah entah bagaimana saya melandas di posisi ini. Tetapi tidak seperti seseorang yang benar-benar mendalami tugas seorang kordinator yang "nyuruh nyuruh" doang, saya benar benar terjun ke lapangan dan seringkali kerja otot.

Walaupun kegiatan bazar amal terkadang di anak tirikan tapi saya sadar beban berada di pundak saya untuk membuat sebuah sub-event dari AO5 ini untuk komunitas sekitar al-izhar, walaupun tidak sekeren kegiatan festivalize atau lainnya. Bisa dikatakan ini adalah suatu prestasi yang mengagumkan untuk saya, karena terkadang saya merasa seperti sedang "solo action" dari buat surat, ngitungin surat, tanda tanganin 750 kupon sampai ngangkat-ngangkat kardus yang kadang sangat berat. tapi saya berterima kasih terhadap teman teman saya yang sudah sukarela membantu.

Untuk kedepannya saya berharap saya dan teman teman dapat melewati kelas 2 ini dengan semangat dan penuh jiwa muda sebagai generasi emas anak Indonesia yang dapat berhasil dalam lingkup global untuk memajukan bangsa ;)

amin.

happy new year 2010!

tahun baru kali ini, saya dan teman teman memutuskan untuk menghabiskan hari terakhir tahun baru 2009 bersama-sama. nah kali ini setelah perundingan yang panjang dan rumit kami mengeliminasi pilihan pilihan seperti pulau komodo, ke singapur naik kapal, ke anyer, dan pada awalnya rencana ke bali untuk pergi ke puncak. yes, puncak! setelah mengurus perizinan dan menye menye lainnya akhinya kita berangkat juga!

30 December 2009
Hari ini kita berangkat pake mobil yandra alyssa azka dan alif. ngumpul di rumah azka, terus gw dateng pas sekali pukul setengah empat hahaha tetapi sesampai disana dengan sangat shock ada yang belum datang juga yaitu tak lain tak bukan adri andika kumara! semua orang sudah sedikit panik berhubung ya tau sendiri puncak kan ya macet dong masa belom berangkat juga sih. lalu mobil gw ya sudahlah tancap saja sayonara adri maaf ya gak bisa ikut salah sendiri telat eh ternyata mobilnya alif ketemuan sama si adri di mcD cibubur toh.

Pesertanya ada berapa ya kalau gak salah sih 18 orang. Pada malam hari kita menonton film horror yaitu The Eye, tapi karena gw udah pernah nonton sih ya gw santai aja dan pas gw nengok ke belakang (gw duduk di barisan depan) mengapa banyak yang mendengarkan ipod? pengkhianat. tapi pas gw tanya ternyata ada sekitar 6 oranglah yang menonton. terus gw ketiduran pas nonton love guru, yak gw masuk angin sebas (seperti biasa). terus lagi si alisa dan lucky dasar psikopat gw jadi gak bisa tidur gara gara digangguin "juaa jangan matii" dengan nada dangdut campur marawis yang menyebalkan. padahal mata gw sudah segaris layaknya di komik humor. akhirnya gw sempat tidur satu setengah jam sebelum lucky dan alyssa again, masuk kamar dan ngelawak. terus gw laper lagi deh pas semua masak mie goreng nyum nyum.

31 December 2009

Terus malam hari ini kita menonton... Ju On, nah ini juga gw pernah nonton makanya gak begitu serem. dan seperti biasa pas gw nengok kebelakang mengapa pada memakai ipod?? pengkhianat. terus ganti film deh judulnya soltice eh itu lah ya. nah pas saat ini gw tanya kan "WOI ADA YANG NONTON GAK??" masalahnya gw takut kan ya masa misalkan horor ternyata gw nonton sendiri terus adiz menjawab, "gue sama dipo nonton kok" oh bagus lah. nabila udah ngorok alyssa udah tidur. terus lalala gw nonton dengan saksama. terus wah ini si adiz masih nonton berhubung kepalanya masih senderan di tangan. terus pas gw liat dari tampak depan ternyata matanya merem. sial.

terus gw dan azka ada zaldy fani lucky terus icha ada edwin juga ternyata masih melek ganti film sama GTO. terus dalam hitungan detik diganti lagi sama monsters vs. alien yang ini nih gw cuman nonton bener bener sendiri!! yang lain ada yang pindah ke kamar terus gw nonton sampe subuh terus nyokapnya azka solat dan mematikan televisinya. Banyak suara aneh, dari suara perut sampe ngorok, sampe kentut. dan tidur gw gak nyaman karena selain kepala gw kena tendangan, kaki gw juga ditendang. terus bangun deh pagi pagi.

hari ini kita rencananya mau safari. jadi kita siang siang ke puncak pass. nah syudududu menunggu para lelaki mandi terasa lama sekali. nah sudah siap semua ayo tancap. ke puncak pass mahal sekali ya taxnya 21% wah bener bener deh gw gak rela bayar segitu. terus ke safari. nah inilah saat saat dimana gw perlu berdzikir karena macetnya bener bener gila satu jam satu meter!!!! terus pada keluar dari mobil ke gunung mas, gw naik kuda seru deeh. terus naik mobil lagi nah disini gw karma abis gw dadah dadah sama yang lagi terjebak kemacetan terus beberapa detik kemudian gw terjebak macet. ha. terus sampe di villa.. gw sadari bahwa udang gue dan nabila ilang!!! ilang ilang dan ilang abis itu gw bt dan marah marah sama orang. tapi tiada kayu rotan pun jadi, tiada udang bacon pun jadi! yes jadi! tapi komentar pertama masakan tersebut yaitu hammam: "kayaknya beracun.." setajam celurit komentar itu ke hati saya.

yeah berkat mama diandra akhirnya kita berhasil memasak masakan enak! yes !

malam harinya, gw tidur tiduran, gw bosan gw suntuk. akhirnya saat ada yang bilang mau jalan jalan malam gw akhirnya ikut! gw nabila pertama.. terus si lucky ikut.. terus fani juga ikut.. hahaha asik deh asik. jadi dari awal gw udah ngitung dulu berapa orangnya jadi ada hammam hafidz adiz dan tama, ada lucky gw nabila fani jadi total ber 8, kayak di film film horor gitu deh.
nah syududud jalan terus hammam "eh gak papa nih kita jalan jalan malem ber sembilan?" WHAT THE HELL??
gw kira bercanda ternyata seriusan. ternyata tuh 5 orang emang sensitif ama yang begituan. hi. dan selanjutnya tidak usah gw ceritakan karena menyeramkan.

saat sudah di depan villa si 4 cowok berkata dengan nada yang mencurigakan dan menegangkan layaknya di felm horor indonesia, "woi buruan masuk ke dalem tutup pintunya, buruan!" nah kita udah langkah seribu di depan pintu nah pas gw udah mau buka sial ternyata pintunya dikunci dari dalem!! mana ada yang ketawa gitu lagi dari dalem gak tau apa kita lagi seriusan tegang gini. gw udah jedor jedor pintu dengan seluruh energi seriusan nih, lucky juga nabila juga, gw udah banting banting jendela. akhirnya pas dibuka pintu ditutup jendela ditutup hi. ternyata ada itu saat itu. ya itulah pokoknya.
