Jangan Takut

Hold on, I promise it gets brighter
And when it rains, I hold you even tighter
I won't go another day without you... 

jangan takut, Kamu :)

The Perks of Being a Member of Working Class

One day I had a chance to spend the night in a decent hospital located in Jalan Jenderal Gatot Subroto. Salah satu jalan protokol Jakarta dimana puluhan gedung pencakar langit berdiri di kanan kirinya dan ratusan kendaraan melintas tanpa henti dari malam sampai pagi. Saya terbangun pukul empat pagi dan menemukan banyak kendaraan bermotor yang sudah wara wiri Gatsu meski mentari belum muncul. Kebanyakan truk, mungkin bagian dari rantai distribusi yang mengantar bermacam barang kebutuhan sehari-hari. Banyak pula pengendara motor atau mobil pribadi, entah mereka yang baru menyelesaikan shift malam dan menuju peraduan, atau mereka yang sudah bangun sejak dini hari dan bersiap memulai pekerjaan. I thought to myself, wow, Jakarta. Kamu dan segala kompleksitasmu. You and all of your magic . Kamu yang dipenuhi jutaan orang yang terus mengeluh soal beratnya hidup. Kamu yang jadi saksi bahwa para pengeluh itu lalu bangun tiap hari dan mencoba bertahan sehari lagi. Sudah hampir lima tahun saya m

It used to suck

Hello :) Seneng deh rasanya denger cerita dari temen2 di rumah soal serunya wisuda. Setelah berbulan2 rempong sama urusan UAN, akhirnya bisa santai2 lagi setelah dinyatakan lulus. Oh well, ngga nyantai2 juga sih, kan masih sibuk nyari kampus hehe. Anwway, kadang sedih juga sih kalo dipikir2.

Jadi kalo emang kreditnya cukup buat lulus ya mereka bisa dapet diploma disini. But not all schools roll like that. Salah satunya, sekolah gw disini. Man, waktu pertama dikasih tau gw ngga bakal lulus disini, gw to be honest agak kecewa. I felt like I was going to waste my time; considering that I had to be a junior again. And next year when I would go home, I'd have to be a senior while all friends hav

On Perfect Marriage

On January 16th 2020 Masyan and I celebrate the fourth anniversary of our partnership. Yes, I just used the term partnership to try to sound more professional, instead of frankly and hopelessly said "the fourth anniversary of being boyfriend and girlfriend" . As a matter of fact, this is our first January 16th where we have been officially married. So yeah, we both come to the point of asking each other, do we celebrate our partnership on November 10th now ? Which was our wedding date and not make a big deal about January 16th anymore. Or do we celebrate both ? Which gives us one more excuse to go on a fancy date and eat somewhere nice :p On a more critical note, I would like to take this time to just sit down and write wonderful thing about being married. Due to work related reason, we are still living in two different cities for the time being. So whenever he comes home for the weekend and we get to spend time together, it somehow still feels like a honeymoon. Yes, I d
