Type of man

Couple minutes ago, I read my sister's proverb book. In that book, I see 4 proverbs that really catch my interest. It seems so true because these are 4 types of humans that we meet every single days. Want to know what kind of men do exist in this world? Let's see what I've written for you. Enjoy!

• The man who doesn't know, and he doesn't know that he doesn't know, he is a stupid man. Go away from him!

• The man who doesn't know, and he knows he doesn't know, he is honest. teach him! 

• The man who knows, and he doesn't know that he knows. That man is sleeping. Wake him up!

• The man who knows, and he knows that he knows. He is a wise man. Follow him

Stupid man, honest man, sleeping man and wise man are the ones whom we can analyze actually. For we ourselves, we can also figure out what kind of human we are. I also sum up that the root from all foolishness is a lack of willingness to ask. People sometimes are too shame even just to declare that they don't understand. It happens to me sometimes. I sometimes ignore the fact that I don't get the materials which are given by the lecturers. It brings me to the place I stand right now. A less-satisfied one. I haven't achieved my best up to this point. Disappointed? Sure I do feel it right now. But what can I say? I am the one who make me who I am today. Embrace it! For all who feel the same thing like me, don't think that you are worthless. Remember, even Edison had to try 10.000 times till he found the light bulb. If he could do that, why can't we do that too?

Cartoons that I don't really like (read. hate)

Talking about cartoon, I'm sure we all have our favorite ones. Like me, I love Tazmania, Barbie, Adventure time, Toy story, and Penguins of the Madagascar. Instead of talking about cartoons which I love. At this time, I'd prefer to write a post about the cartoons which I hate. Enjoy!

1. Mickey & Minnie Mouse
These are maybe ones of the oldest cartoon in the universe. Many people like or even crave for them. But for me, I don't find any cuteness coming from them. Since I was a little girl until now, I never at once get any crush towards them. But my first sister, she's in love with these mice. I just....don't get it.

2. Winnie The Pooh
Yap! I don't like him or her. Oh ya him. Sorry people. I don't like him because he's a lazy person and ohmygod I can't stand any longer to watch a slow kind of person like that? Geez cmon it takes ages for him to say one damn complete sentence. Besides that, I just have another reason which I can't reveal. Actually it is the main reason why I hate Pooh SO-Much. Sorry yellow.

3. Hello Kitty
Crazed about Hello Kitty? EWHHH. First, she is a cat! I repeat a cat! a big no-no. Then, she is soooooooo feminine. Not mention again that she is so kittenish (?) and I think she's kind of attention-seeker. I don't find any reason in the world to have moon-eyes while looking at this cartoon.

4. Tweety
Actually I just don't really like it yet I don't hate it after all. Ya, I'm in the cross between love-hate feeling. For this one, I can't figure out why I don't really like it. I just don't.

5. Jerry from "Tom & Jerry"
I'm sure you don't understand why I hate Jerry instead of Tom. I mean Tom is a cat, yet I don't get any reason to hate him. Moreover, I feel like I wanna smash Jerry one at a time. I found Jerry is a shifty mouse. He disturbs Tom, then Tom's catching after him, I mean it's fuckin' logic. For you yourself, what will you do when someone disturbs you while you're having your nap? Ofc You'll do the same thing like Tom. But then, it turns out to be Tom's faults. Every characters bully Tom. It's always Tom who get the smash, the bad things. It isn't FAIR! cmon people. Then Jerry at the end of almost every episodes. Get things that he shouldn't get. I hate Jerry so much! I repeat SO MUCH.

  

I know it might be strange for some of you to read it. It looks like I hate cartoons which almost all girls in this universe love. Eumhh. Guess I have a different interest from them, I don't care :p

It's me (that you haven't know)

Hi.hehehe okay I'm still bored today. Gahhh. Now, I wanna tell you about my bad habits ahahaha yes I'm sure it's such a weird thing. But I do this to be such a reminder for me so that I could be a better person this year. Classic, huh? But let's try this stuff, it sounds more like a resolution. But naaah, it's not. Resolution is a big no-no of mine. Because I do believe that it just motivates me at the first week after I wrote that thing down. Okay let's start it..............

1. I am a moody person.
You know a situation when at first you feel so much happy than suddenly you feel so upset with everybody? I feel that for many times. I don't know, when I feel something bothers me a lot! I will change my mood suddenly. I'm kind of an expressive person hahaha. Ya I'll show my expression a lot through things I've been through. It's not just that, my mood effects all people around me. For example, if I feel upset, I'll text as short as possible, chat as short as possible. I sometimes just text "Yes" "No" "Hmm" "Ha" "dih" "Oh" "zz" "-_-" etc. Ofc whoever read that message will be so upset too, and sort of like enter to my mood also hahaha. Sorry people, I'll try to change this worst habit.

2. I am a sentimental person.
Hahahhaa it's soooo embarrassing for me to tell about it. Yes, I cry a lot. It's not that I cry all the time. It's just my tears run upon my cheeks easily. Even when I'm not sad, I could cry. For example, I can't be mad to people, I mean it's not that I can't feel mad at them, it's just I can't express my madness by shouting at them or scolding at them and things like that. So what will I do when I'm at that condition? I will cry! Yeah to express that unexpressed feeling, suddenly my tears just exploded ahahaha. I just don't wanna make things be worse than ever, so I'll be like the one who give in (uuuuh what an angle I am o:) )

3. I am a SOOOOOO mager person.
Okay let's make it clear as crystal. Mager is soooo damn different with lazy. It has no connection any how at all. Mager is just mager you know. You just not in your mood to go anywhere but here.When I am at the top stage of my Mager-ness hmm. People will be so much annoyed by it. Sorry people, it's just nahhh I'm so mager. Once I've ever dressed to go to campus, then suddenly I felt so much mager, right at that time I decided to changed my cloth and went to sleep. Yes I skipped the class because of a very stupid reason. and don't be shock when I cancel the plan suddenly just because I don't feel like I wanna go hahaha.

4. I am a bossy person
I don't know maybe it's because of my background in the family, I'm the first child here so which means that among my other siblings, I'm the most powerful. So, I often just order this and this and this and that to my siblings. This habit is carried by me wherever I go. More over, when I was in senior high school, I was the leader for one extracurricular which makes my bossy-level rose up. I know it's not a good thing to be had by a leader. But Idk I just couldn't hushhhh it away.

5. I am the One (so ambiguous)
It's not that I'm god-alike or something. Amit-amit ya Allah. This habit means that I just wanna be the best. I hate losing. As what I've told you in my old post. I hate myself so much If I couldn't give my best. If I couldn't bring out my best. It's not that I'm a jerk or bitchy or what. It's just that I don't wanna be degraded by others. That the reason why I'll be dying to reach the top position.Yes it's such a bad habit of mine.

6. I am not a caring person.
For you who know me since forever, you know I am not a kind-of-full of attention-person. I won't get notice whether you feel sad at that time or what. Maybe it's not that I don't see it or what. I actually see and feel it, it's just I don't wanna put my nose into others' business' if they don't ask me to. Because I have a principle that not all people want you to be involved to their problems. There's a time for you to know it, and there's a limitation of things that you could cross in their problems. That's why I prefer not to give or pay full attention to people around me. That's why most of them judged me as a not caring person.


Woaaaaagh seriously I can continue this list until forever but adzan Maghrib has been heard from the nearest Mosque here. So, that's it, I have to go Shalat. I hope that through this year, I can change those bad habits and other untold bad habits of mine. Good luck fo'meeeeeeh! Ciao people ;)

Another unimportant journal

Hmm. Actually I don't know what to write right now hahaha but I just wanna write thing down. Heum Okay while typing, hope I'll get some ideas to be written.
Okay I get it. I wanna tell you the reason behind why I create blog again, and why it should be fully written in English. Lend me your eyes :p

First up, the reason why I finally make a decision to re-create my blog is because, I kinda miss the joy which I get from typing some words into it. Yeah people say that it's way better to speak with "human" than with "computer" about your problems. But somehow I always believe that not all of "humans" want to listen your ton of-damn-problems. So, that's why I (sometimes) prefer to write things down on my blog and let those who sincerely read it and maybe can leave some comments directly/not.  But, my current blog is different with my previous one, now I change the vision #tsah of this blog. My previous blog concerns more about my uhuk-ehemlove-problems. ahahahhaha oh gosh. it sounds sooooo eighty-six. I was in a major problem because of the posts that I've written. So as what I've said before, I deleted my old blog and vacuum in the blog world for a little bit long time. But then I kinda miss the feeling from pouring my feeling and ideas into some sentences into it ahahaha. For you whom know the relieve you get after posting into your blog, you'll understand what I'm saying.

Next, why it should be written in English? some people say I'm such a smart-ass or something ahahaha but I'm fine with that. Actually it's related with the reason behind the re-creating of this blog. Since I'm taking English Literature as my current studies, I have to improve my ability to produce some writings. But then how can I improve my ability if I never have a chance to practice? I fully realize my writing is wayyyyyyy far from the good writing itself. Mine hasn't been grammatically perfect. That's why I determine to write everything in English. It's not that I want to show off or something, it's also not that I don't love Bahasa or what. But I just wanna be better, and to achieve that goal, I have to try to change it by myself. I can't rely on other persons to change it. That's when I see blog as the shining star which lead me to the answer of it. Since blogging is free, why don't I use it? Cmon, quoting from @social_junkee "who hates technology? Not me"

I think that's all. Quite unimportant stuff to be read hahaha but that's okay if you skip this writing. Oh ya btw I keep questioning who is the android user who keep checking my blog? :o I mean cmon, almost half of my viewers are you, android user. Whoever you are, I don't mind of it but I just sooo damn curious.

AAAAAARGHH

Pfffft it's just the first week of my long holiday and guess what? I'm bored as hell. GAHHH! I don't know what to say anymore. I mean literally I just wake up-eat-take a bath-eat-sleep-internet-take a bath-tv-sleep- that's it. But, I also don't have any intention to go out somewhere. Ya it's a little bit (or maybe too) stupid, but that's what I feel right now. Not mention again that my friends are having UAS up until the next two weeks maybe. HOLABOMBAAAA. I'm trying to fill my holiday with some useful things; I learn some idioms hahah, stupid I know, but somehow it's fun because it can help me improve my knowledge of English itself. I also make myself busy to read some articles that I found in twitter. Besides that, what? eumh I help my mom! Yes it's the most useful thing I do during my holiday (you should give me a compliment on that) yeaaaah.
My hand phone is my closest best friend at this point, I mean it always be there next to me every time. Luckily, some of my friends already free like me, and some of them haven't go back to their campus life. So, they can have chat with me and just decrease my boring-level. Luckily too, they (ega,rifsi,duffy) often come to my house and just talk for hours. Sigh! But, Ega is going back to Semarang soon :'( and Rifsi, she's having a final test right now. pffft! and Duffy, hhhh he's going back too the hell (I mean dorm) :'( SOOO it means that I'm stuck in here in this place alone (it's so exaggerated  I know, sorry). Ah, what a human nature. I never be grateful for any times. I mean when I'm in my hectic days, I always dying to have holiday and just be in my house. But then, when I have my holiday, I just wanna back to my hectic-campus-life. It's not that I miss the real campus life with the tasks, quizzes, and to meet the lecturers. I just miss my friend in the English department (DM,Jaenab,Tika,Inez) and ofc I also miss my kost-mates like a lot! Ohya BTW, I think I'm just gonna be in the rented room until the 4th semester only. Because my mom think that I already can handle the trip from my home to campus *sigh* but ya it's worth it to be tried.
What? I think I talk too much. I'm gonna end this mumbo jumbo right now.

Ps: I think I'm gonna start to make my holiday plan! yes what a doozy invention of mine. Yeah great minds think alike hahaha.

my version of new year's eve

Happy New Year! Should I change "heavy" instead of happy in here? I mean I embrace this new year with a heavy flu *huatchim* plus cough *uhuk* emm.
I'm gonna tell you about what's going on with me yesterday. Yes, yesterday is a new year's eve. So many people prepared different things to celebrate the new year. For me, I don't really catch the importance of counting down to the upcoming year. For years, I just sleep on my bed while everybody else burning some fireworks or simply just having fun outside. But this year, it's different. I spent my new year's eve by watching movie in the theater. Actually it wasn't really prepared well. My mom suddenly came to my room while I was lying in my bed because of this flu, then she asked me to go out and watch movie with my fams. Ofc at first I refused this offer, because I didn't in my mood even just to step out from my room. Moreover my mom said that she wanted to watch Habibie&Ainun. I've watched that movie, ofc I said "no mom, I'd better in home alone" But then my mom kept insisting me to go with my fams. She offered that I could watch different movie alone. Finally I said yes. So, we went out to watch movie at Artha Gading. We went to the locket, and I saw what movies were available to be watched. There are only 5 movies in that theater; Habibie&Ainun, 5cm, Potong bebek angsa, Cinta tapi beda, and Jack Reacher. At first, I planned to watch the hobbit. But unfortunately, I couldn't watch it, so I ended up by choosing "cinta tapi beda" because the other two options were not really tempting me. For potong bebek angsa, I mean cmon -_-. Then for Jack Reacher, it's an action movie, I'm not a huge fan of this genre. So, I preferred to watch "cinta tapi beda".
I watched the movie by myself because all of my family members watched Habibie&Ainun. So, I just went into the third theater and then BAM!! I saw so many couples were in there too to watch it. Then, I just sat in E11 by myself. I told you, it wasn't a good feeling though huft. Actually I do wanna give you the review for this movie, but I don't know, suddenly I feel so lazy to type it. I think I will share my thought about this movie later in the next post :) Okay let's continue my story, after finished to watch the movie. I and my family had dinner as usual. Then, because I couldn't stand any longer to be outside, I begged to go home. So, we went home. After we arrived at home, I directly went straight to my bed (but actually I swallowed couple of medicines first) then slept. At about 11 pm, I woke up because of the annoyance I got from hearing the fireworks. Ergh seriously dude, get a life! So, I awoke for about two hours, luckily it wasn't really bad after all to spend that two hours :p because...............hehehhee it's a secret.
Then suddenly I hear people started counting down...............and....Yak adios amigos 2012, and welcome 2013. A year full of hopes and wishes :)
So, I guess I'm done :) that's my version of New year's eve. How about yours? I'm sure it was way better than mine :)

21/12/2012

What date is today? Yes 21/12/2012 ! What's so special about that? Nothing, the Mayan just made a prediction long long time ago that the end of civilization will happen today. But so far so good as we all can see. 3 hours to go to 00.00 which means that we're gonna survive from the "doomsday" :) 
 Actually what I wanna share in here isn't about the doomsday issue whatsoever, I just wanna share my experiences today. I don't know but I feel so much blessed and lucky today. 

Up until the afternoon, there's nothing so special happened to me. But then when I prepared myself to go back to Jakarta with Chika (but she'll go back to bekasehh), I feel so much blessed and lucky. Started from when we waited for BiKun a.k.a the yellow bus to arrive, we thought it's gonna take forever to wait for it but several minutes later, bikun arrived, so we just ran to it. When we entered the bus, I thought we won't have a seat. But guess what? the bus wasn't as crowded as it used to. So, we can sit peacefully there.
After we reached the station, we directly go to the locket to buy ticket, and you know what? there was no long line like I've predicted before, we bought the ticket easily without had to stand in a queue. Then, I thought we won't have a seat to wait in the station. But again, I was wrong. We got the seat to wait for the upcoming train to Jakarta. Several minutes later after we waited, the train with Jakarta-Kota destination has arrived :') OH MY GOD it's such a miracle because we didn't have to wait for a long time. So, we just entered the train and saw a very calming view. The train wasn't too crowded (but it wasn't empty as well). Again, we had seat in the train. After we arrived to Manggarai, I think Chika is a little bit worry about the schedule of the train to bekasi. Because since we were still at the rented room, the only thing that she worried about was the train to Bekasi that will arrive at late night. But Alhamdulillah, after we stepped down from the train, Chika directly saw the train to Bekasi was right in front of her. It was a truly miracle to see it. So, she just entered the train and I went to the exit way to see my dad. 

Chika thought the same thing with me

On my way to home, I keep thinking about it and wondering how could it be? It's just like God ease our way to go back to our parents since we haven't seen them for about 3 weeks long. Then I started to think, is it really a luck? were we so blessed today?
But then I just realize, how could I say such a thing? Of course we were blessed today, we always get it everyday, we are blessed everyday by Allah SWT :) We just forget to thank sometimes because we are too busy to ask for Big Things and abandon the beautiful little things in our surrounding..........

I'll leave you with a poem by Sara Teasdale which is "Barter". Have a nice time to read it :)

Barter

Life has loveliness to sell,
All beautiful and splendid things,
Blue waves whitened on a cliff,
Soaring fire that sways and sings,
And children's faces looking up,
Holding wonder like a cup.

Life has loveliness to sell,
Music like the curve of gold,
Scent of pine trees in the rain,
Eyes that love you, arms that hold,
And for your spirit's still delight,
Holy thoughts that star the night.

Spend all you have for loveliness,
Buy it and never count the cost;
For one white singing hour of peace
Count many a year of strife well lost,
And for a breath of ecstasy
Give all you have been, or could be.

Sara Teasdale

Doomsday Preppers

                21-12-2012 maybe is the most talked issue nowadays. According to the Mayan’s calendar, the doomsday is going to happen in 21-12-2012. For me, it doesn’t make any sense because according to my belief, there’s no one in this world that knows when the doomsday will happen. But, out there, so many people trust this issue and feel insecure about it so they start to prepare a lot of things to face the doomsday. This is what called as “doomsday preppers”.

                “Doomsday preppers” actually is an American TV show which is aired in National Geographic channel which shows the preparation of some survivalists (preppers) to face the upcoming doomsday. They prepare themselves for various things that might happen to all of them when the world comes to the end. There are prepers who concern about the killer pandemic that might attack them, those who concern about the natural disaster, or those who prepare for the upcoming world war, and many other things. This TV show infects many American people to be a prepper as well. They are turning spare rooms into long-term food storage pantries, they are planting survival gardens, they are taking self-defense courses, and many other overwhelmed things. Besides preparing things to face the doomsday, those preppers also join some facebook groups or preppers website to discuss about the doomsday and the preparation itself. 

                Some people, including me, think that it is so exaggerated for people to be a prepper. Because when the world ends, nothing can save you from being part of it. Besides that, no one can make sure the validity of the Mayan’s prediction about 21-12-2012. This doomsday issue creates a very great panic toward people all around the world. That panicky makes people do things which absolutely out of mind. But, those preppers have their own reason why they have to do that things and it seems like they take it seriously. One thing for sure, we all agree that there is a time when the world comes to the end, but whether it will happen at 21-12-2012 or not, there’s no one who knows about it. Let’s see together!

The Harries Twin

Hi there! Actually this week is a Final test week. But today I'm free because there's no class *yeay* So I decided to write something in here. Nah the question is, what am I suppose to write now? Then suddenly I come up with a very brilliant idea. I'm gonna write about Jack an Finn the twin :D I love Jack more than I love Finn :p (sorry Finn).

Okay I'm gonna start with a basic introduction. 
 Jack Harries (well-known as JacksGap)

 is my future cheeky husband. He's a 19 years old British random guy whom I see in YouTube. I love his idea to post his activities during his gap year for his fams and friends. But then, his idea turns out to be loved by many YouTube viewers because OMG he's soooo adorable. I found his channel for the first time when I try to practice listening British accent. So, I just type "British accent" then after some random results, I finally found Jack's video. The first video of Jack that I watched is "British slang" ,the video was taken by Jack together with his adorable twin, Finn Harries and other YouTuber, Tyler Oakley. After finished watching the video, Bang!! I love Jack directly! Marry me Jack please, I love your sweet adorable face, I love your accent, I love your smile, and many other things which I love from you :D akakakka okay it sounds really creepy though. After watching that video, I directly search for other crazed video from him. I can't control my fingers to stop clicking his videos again and again. I'm so overexposed by his charm. Jack is studying theater in Bristol University. 

Now, let's move to Finn :D 

He's Jack's twin who was born two minutes earlier than Jack. So, he's Jack older twin. But Jack tends to call him his slave hahaha why? Just watch this "My favorite"
There are so many names that given to Finn; FinnTheBetterTwin, FinnTheUnverifiedTwin, and many others hahahha. He's so much alike with Jack (you don't say). But Finn is a bit calmer than Jack. For those who prefer with cool guys, you definitely will choose Finn  over Jack. Finn is studying in Leed University, he's taking a graphic design major there. I love Finn too but I love Jack much more than I love him :D

 

I think that's all from me to tell you about that fallen-from heaven-twin
 Here are some photos of them that I will share to you. Fasten your seat belt! It's gonna be a shaking adventure to see their pictures 

How can you hate that adorable faces? <3

I LOVE YOU TOO!

Finn (red) & Jack (blue)

I and Robert Frost's relation

As usual, I'm gonna start this writing by saying "Hi, there!". Eumh actually have you realized that I change the url? hehe :p I change it because I want to avoid from type of a-kepo-person. Idk who she/he is but I just feel uncomfortable from it. Okay let's move to the main part of this writing cikiciw
Actually what I wanna share to you is about the result of my writing task. Have I told you about the writing task that I've given to my lecture? the "what if" writing? I already get it back to see a feedback from her this afternoon and there's one interesting thing from her comment. It's not a usual comment that she made. She wrote a comment for me that said I should read a poem by Robert frost "(The) Road Not Taken". She said that it will relate to what I've written. So, as soon as I catch to my second home-Purmel- I directly search about that poem because I'm too curious about it. When I've finished to search this poem on google, then I read it and do you know what's the message of this poem? It's such a very deep message that really relate to my writing. This poem tells about a person who had to face two different but equally 'fair' path. This person finally took the less-traveled path rather than the most-traveled path. At first, he doubted whether it was the right path to take or not, he also was so curious about what was happen on the other path. But, finally he realized that no matter which path that he took, it would bring its own story. Writer tried to say that actually taking a less-traveled path is not really that bad, because somehow taking a risk is worth it at the end. Why? because you have became the person you thought you'll never be. The person who's brave enough to take the road that's not as popular as other road. When I read it, the one thing that comes up to my mind is, Oh my god, thanks Maam Savina, I don't even know you'll be that care enough to your student. Btw, do you want to know how the poem is? I'll share it to you at the end of this writing. Have a good time to read it :) Thanks Mr.Robert Frost for leaving us this epic poem as your legacy

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Robert Frost

What if

Hi there (again)! what a productive way to produce writing one for each day. Now actually I don't want to write about some random stuffs. I just want to show you my writing, the one that had been written by me for my writing class. Let me tell you a little bit about the process to produce this writing. I was actually in my sort of indescribable mood at that time, and I just laid down on my bed and thinking about all the moments that I've been throwing away through my life. I was so upset with myself, to be such a coward, to be such a lame person. So at that time, I just grabbed my BlackBerry and started to type words after words on the MemoPad. Then here it is, my writing and the title is "What If"

What if...what if? That's a question that will come up to our mind whenever we face one new condition. We always make ourselves busy to think about what's going to happen next. What good things and bad things that follow behind that step that we face at the point. We never dare ourselves to be brave to embrace new things in front of us. That thing that makes us skip a lot of beautiful moments of life. We're too scared of a future but we're also in such a misery to live the present, because we don't know whether we want this kind of future or that kind of future. It is like we don't live in the present nor in the future. We never actually live our life if we always think about "what if". Over thinking makes us forget the beauty from life itself, the beauty of surprise. We're not letting the road to choose us, but we are the one who choose it. Now. can you just close your eyes for a moment? Remember all the kind of big moments that you've already skipped? What do you feel when you can't have them all? I've felt it for many times, and it's not a good feeling. Regret is the only thing that haunting me all my life. I always hate myself for not letting me to embrace the things that I supposed to have. But life goes on, things that already happened can't be changed. What we can do next is just letting go things that already happened and change our point of view. Try to embrace our life! Live your life! So start from now, erase "what if" and start to say "I'm ready for it!"

That's all from me, thank you for reading it, fellas
