Gw mau cerita kejadian paling memalukan dalam hidup gw. Actually I have mixed feelings about this event. Gw kalau ceritain soal ini ke temen-temen gw bisa sambil ketawa sampai nangis, tapi malu banget rasanya kalau inget. However, I think this is a life changing event. Sebener-benernya agak enggan ya buat ceritain soal ini di blog gw, tapi gw mikir mungkin bisa ada hikmahnya kali kalau gw cerita. Gyahahah.

Jadi ceritanya gini..

Waktu gw kelas 2 SD, ada satu cowo yang duduk di depan gw. Dia punya bbrp batang pensil bergambar Felix The Cat yang lucu banget dan gw suka banget. Nah one day, gw ngelihat salah satu pensil itu ada di lantai di bawah meja gw. Gw pungut terus gw nanya "Ini punya siapa ya?" knowing very well that it's that boy's pencil. Gw masih inget nama itu anak. Namanya Franky. *Hi there Franky!

Nah ngga ada yang mengaku kalau itu miliknya, jadi apa yang gw lakukan? Yeap, I put it in my pencil case and took it home. Malemnyaaa... gw ngga bisa tidur mikirin gw baru nyolong barang orang! Lalu gw bertekad buat balikin itu pensil besokkannya. Jadi besokkannya gw taruh itu pensil di meja itu anak, terus bilang, "Eh, ini pensil kamu [baru kelas 2 SD bo, masih pake aku-kamu!]. Jatuh tuh tadi." Dan gw rasanya legaaaa banget. Now, more than 10 years on, I still remember that event so clearly in my head. Semua gara-gara itu Felix The Cat.

Intinyaa... gw jadi kadang suka mikir ya, orang yang nyolong barang orang lain, let alone do other crimes, how do they sleep at night? Itu aja barang sekecil pensil bisa bikin gw ngga tidur semaleman. Apalagi yang namanya nyuri uang, nyuri mobil, nyuri yang lain* [nyuri hati ngga termasuk ya :P].. Gw jd suka mikir.. maybe those events didn't occur to them early enough in their lives to make them realise that what they're doing is wrong. Kok bisa ya orang nyuri? Bingung deh gw. *geleng-geleng kepala*

Libur! Senangnyaa..

Rasanya ky aneh loh, not having to worry about studying or doing homework. It feels like I should be doing something. Biasanya kalau pulang malem tuh panik sendiri mikirin peer yang blum dikerjain, skrg gw bener-bener bebas! Well for 5 weeks anyway :)

Hmm lately I've been so worried thinking about life after uni. I'm still not sure what I want to do. Beberapa bulan yang lalu sempet yakin gw mau apa, tp skrg it's all faded and replaced by complete and total confusion. I can't work out what I want to do with my life! Tadi temen gw ada yang bilang, pikirin aja apa yang dari dulu selalu gw ingini trus pursue it. Mungkin it won't work out. Maybe I won't have it going for me forever, tapi at least I know where to start. The thing is, I don't know what I really want for a career. Kalau ditanyain what I really want for my life, I want to get married, have kids, live happily every after. But I have to work right? Ngga mungkin gw begitu lulus langsung nikah dan ngga pernah punya pengalaman kerja sama sekali dan setelah nikah pun gw tetep mau kerja. Nah masalahnya.. kerja jadi apa?

If everything goes well, akhir tahun ini gw lulus dan I have to do something with my life. Setengah tahun itu ngga lama. Cuma 6 bulan. And that will pass really quick.

Arrghh... I'm confused!

Yeap. It's officially over.
What is over you may ask.

Well, for one, exams.
Second, my feelings.

But we'll see how we go.

Suatu hari ada seekor burung hantu yang bertengger gagah di cabang pohon tertinggi. Dia amat bangga akan posisinya karena tidak semua burung bisa mencapai ketinggian seperti dia, sehingga akhirnya dia menjadi sombong dan berpikir bahwa dirinya adalah yang terhebat. Dia pun menikah dan memiliki 3 anak-anak burung hantu.

Anak-anaknya tumbuh menjadi burung-burung yang pandai dan sukses. Saat mereka belajar terbang, sang ayah terus memaksa dan mendorong mereka untuk latihan terus menerus, bahkan melarang anak-anaknya untuk bermain dengan burung hantu-burung hantu yang lain agar mereka bisa berkonsentrasi belajar terbang. Akhirnya setelah usaha keras mereka pun dapat terbang dengan baik.

Pada saat anak-anak burung hantu yang lain sedang sibuk mencari pasangan hidup mereka, anak-anak sang burung hantu ini masih sibuk belajar melakukan ini itu sehingga mereka tidak mempunyai waktu untuk mencari pasangan hidup mereka. Satu ekor burung merpati senang memandangi anak perempuan sang burung hantu ini dan akhirnya ia jatuh cinta kepadanya. Berulang kali ia berusaha menyatakan cintanya tetapi sang anak tidak mengindahkannya, sampai suatu hari burung merpati ini jatuh cinta kepada seekor burung lain dan mereka pun menjadi sepasang kekasih. Anak perempuan ini marah, dan begitu juga sang ayah. Sang ayah terus berusaha menjatuhkan sang burung merpati dengan mengatakan hal-hal buruk tentang sang merpati walaupun ia tahu itu hanya alasan yang dicari-cari.

Sang merpati awal-awalnya kesal akan perbuatan ayah burung hantu tetapi lama-lama ia bisa berkata kepada dirinya sendiri:
"Burung hantu berbunyi, aku berlalu."

Sang merpati sadar bahwa apa yang burung hantu itu lakukan hanyalah sekedar untuk membuat dirinya merasa lebih baik. Anggur yang tidak bisa didapat adalah yang asam kan?

**based on true story.

I was driving along calmly today when I saw this crazy taxi on the road. He changed lanes as if he owned the road and WITHOUT signalling. But I thought, fine, it's his problem. If he crashed, it's his problem. So I took no notice of him until he tried to change into my lane WITHOUT signalling and REALLY close to me. I beeped him to tell him that there's actually a car behind him. And what did he do, ladies and gentlemen? He stuck his middle finger out the window. I was mad. No, that's an understatement. I was furious. Then he purposefully drove really slow to irritate me and he suceeded. I was irritated out of my mind. Then the lane split in 2 and I was on his right. What did he do this time? He opened the window, said "Do you want a piece of me?" Gave me his middle finger and put it into his mouth. With a sick look on his face. Tell me now, WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?

I was fuming. I got home, called the taxi company to file a complaint, and the taxi company advised me to call the police station. But I didn't do it. What's the police gonna do anyway?

So Taxi 375 from Tricolore Taxi, get your act together! What the hell is your problem? If God exists, and I know He does, I hope He'll let you rot in hell for eternity. And trust me, eternity is a loonngg time.

Kita semua pasti pernah in one stage of our life baca atau nonton Doraemon yaa.. Tau kan cerita yang tentang si Nobita mau belajar buat tes trus sama Doraemon dikasih roti yang buat jeplak bahan tesnya, trus kalau roti nya dimakan langsung hafal apapun yang kejeplak di roti itu. Enak yaaa... gw pingin deh ada yang kaya gtu, biar gw ngga usah pusing belajar pas mau exam. Enaknya kalau ada Doraemon di dunia nyata ini ya..

Trus ada yang bilang juga, katanya bakar bukunya, campur abunya sama air, lalu minum. Gyahahah. Apparently itu ngga bakal bikin loe sakit perut, karena itu kan arang, dan arang itu good for your stomach katanya. Norit aja terbuat dari arang.

Aaahhhhh gimana sih cara belajar yang cepeeetttt???

Disaat gw seharusnya cramming for my exams.. Apa yang gw lakukan? Nonton konser! It was well worth it though.. Ini beberapa foto dari sekian banyak foto yang gw ambil semalem..

Sheila on 7 seru skaliii...!! Eross is a lot smaller than I thought he was!

Angga-nya Maliq & D'essentials lucu juga yaaa...

Glenn Fredly was awesome.

Ini semua artis yang dateng kemarin..

Kemarin ada Sheila on 7, Maliq & D'essentials, Bunga Citra Lestari, Maia Ahmad, Shanty, Glenn Fredly, Dewi Sandra, lalu MC-nya Catherine Wilson dan VJ Cathy. Seru banged sih konsernya. So7 and Maliq & D'essentials were my favourites last night.. Bunga Citra Lestari cantik sekalii.. Kurus banged orangnya, everything about her was so small.. Except her voice. Kuat banged suaranya! Hebat. Duta So7 ngga bisa diem gtu, pecicilan abis on stage. Hahah. Tapi So7 were entertainers! Seru banged nontonnya.

Gw terpikat sama Angga-nya Maliq. Haha. Suaranya awesome. I really really liked the way he dressed last night. Keren. Maliq keren abis, ada koreografi nya gtu, menyenangkan! Shanty juga ngga bsa diem banged, lari sana lari sini. Maia keliatan seperti agak canggung gtu kok ya on stage? Glenn sih keren, as always. Dewi Sandra sayaanng banged suaranya ngga kedengeran. Tenggelem sama musiknya gtu.

Overall, memuaskan!

If you are given a choice between

being told the truth which hurts,
or
being lied to,

which would you choose?

White lies. Little lies to protect someone's feelings. Is there really a distinction between "little" lies and "big" lies? Wouldn't little lies eventually build up to become a big lie which will explode and make a mess out of the situation?

One lie always ALWAYS leads to another.. and another.. and another.. until one day, here comes the BIG lie.

I prefer being told the truth. I don't like not knowing and be the fool. No, I don't like to be the fool.

The truth isn't always easy to take, but being lied to is even worse.
