A hectic week

My life this week in black & white
Hey blog... I guess this is the place where I end up when I reach my lowest point. Sorry, blog... that's why you're rather gloomy and mellow-drama lately hehehe but I tend to seek for relieve by writing here only or mostly when I get stuck, sad, tired, or terribly bored.

Look, I don't mean to complain, I think Allah has always been soo good to me. I know many people will switch place with where I am now. But there's always this one point when you're not satisfied, and that's what makes us human, right?

But, I must admit it, that this week was one of those tiring weeks ever. Due to many things that I should have done in 7 days. Not only consumed my thoughts but also lots of my energies.

Reversing time back into 7 days ago, after cycling  in the morning, I was getting an accident near my house. I fall and got some wound, gladly it wasn't that bad. Monday to Friday, I never got home earlier than 9-10PM, I drove to here and there.. I ran for this and that.. And plus.. My school's stuffs. Task, exam, etc. Which are never stop coming and coming like the water flows.. 

And, it's Sunday, which means tomorrow is already monday again. Like, "hheu.."  I know, I better take a rest or doing my homework or read some books instead of grumbling here, but i just feel like, I need a little escape now.. I've been going to a bookstore yesterday, but it doesn't help much. I still feel need sort of a little pause, such as have a school's day off, or going to somewhere, or simply writing here, maybe?

But then, I was companying my mom and my grammy to fresh market yesterday. In there i found how life was so opposite between one person to another, including me. And I should be thankful to Allah for His blessing.. I should reminding myself however I'm in bad condition that there're still many people out there who's in worse condition than me..  and my life that I have doesn't that hard to compare with theirs.

This's part of my journey to be someone who i wish i eventually turned out in the future. And I should fight for it. This's the war that never going to stop between me and my own self. I may feeling this in one time, but i must not let it control me all the time. Being a moody person is really a bad thing..hzz :''|


That is a video which's a compilation of videos that I took during this week when I was going to many places. I collage it into one and give it a soundtrack. That's the song that I mostly listening to lately.  KITA BISA by RAN ft. Tulus, it's a beautiful song, right? :)

;)

                                           
                                                 

People say "Be with the people who bring out the best of you", and I couldn't agree more with those sentences. That's a true statement ever. Simply, because we live only once. So why we must wasting our times on someone who doesn't care with us and only make us sick?
But, however, i still do that sometimes hahaha

I just had a good conversation with someone, who I preferably call as a brother for me, and honestly deep..deep..down inside, somehow I really thankful that destiny met me up with this kind and caring brother like him. Maybe, from outside people will think, that he's someone who less concerned with things around him.. Because he keeps acting cool ._. and stays silent all the way :)) But after I got to know him, I found out that was a really wrong point of view -,- You know, he could suddenly laughing when you ain't even talking to him, just because you're saying one silly word accidentally to someone else.

I always have a good time whenever i get time to chit chat with him, he's really a good companion to talk with, because I can share so many things, whether about my college, my hobby, my lessons, etc :D He's someone who can equal my talks, my thoughts, and my jokes. He can give me an advice. A new information. A new perspective. Tell me what I should or I shouldn't do as well. And that's a good thing. Because, I like it when someone tell me directly which I should have done rather than just saying "that's up to you.." everytime I ask them :) He ever told me, to keep doing what I love. Yes, it's something I love. He said that it's kind of pity..if i stopped doing what I have an ability on, just because, I'm too lazy.

So happy to have lovely people around. For me, everyone is like a rainbow, they have their own color. Maybe sometimes, we can't be one thought with them, because, yes we have differences in every thinking point, and it's a normal thing :) Living with an understanding is a beautiful thing, despite so many differences, we learn to understand and accept others perspective. And what we mostly not realize is, when we tolerate each other, we enrich our thinking ways with that.

Can't wait to have another good time and conversation with you, bro. Especially like on that rainy afternoon. Thanks a lot for always boosted my mood up! ;)

Flood Problem in Jakarta

img source: google.com


Today, I'm going to talk about recent hot issue in most of Indonesia's news shows, flood problem that happens in Indonesia, mostly at Jakarta. Nowadays, flood in Jakarta happens annually, even, it's getting worse and worse - every year, who should to be blame on? Let's take a look first on what factor cause this happened, in my point of view.. 

1. Excess of Population -> too many construction -> green area decrease
As the capital city of Indonesia, where all forms of activities centered here, Jakarta become a city with the most society numbers. with total area: 664,01 km2 Jakarta has patch 9.809.857 society, and has a big differences numbers of society with another cities in Indonesia, and now Jakarta is already classified as  a megapolitan city. 

With these numbers, absolutely Jakarta should grown with many buildings to support the human's activities. Places to work, residential, Mall, stadium, apartments, etc. Which make its green area, trees, plants, forest, reduced year by year along with the increase of the population. Whereas, green areas with plants and trees in there are important place for nature balance. With the presence of trees, whenever the rainy season's coming, it could help soak the water that falling, and decrease the chance for flood disaster.

Now, the green area that available in Jakarta is only 10% of its total area, which ideally it should be 30% .

2. Disposal system 
With those high numbers of society sure it will produce massive garbage in Jakarta. With no good disposal system, it could make a worse condition for Jakarta. Garbage maybe an unimportant things in human's life, it's something that can't be used anymore, it's stink, dirty.. then people throw it away~~pew~~ anywhere, in road, in school, in river, in canal~~ without thinking what may coming up next~~ especially, in rainy season.

Government should provide a good disposal system in Jakarta. They should find most effective and quickest way to anticipate the amount of litter from the society. Government should provide numbers of trash can in ways for every some meters. in crowded place. So, society have more will to throw them in the right place. 

3. Geographical location + bad drainage system
The geographical location is one of largest cause why Jakarta gets a flood every year. Placed after Bogor which in higher level from Jakarta makes Jakarta got its descendant water flows. The bad news is, Jakarta already in bad condition with factors i earlier said. 


Actually it won't really impact to Jakarta if only Jakarta already has a good drainage systems. Every year, with the increase of population, the width of drainage canals are getting smaller and smaller while the water capacity that come's getting higher.. Plus if the drainage system in there nearly broken by ages factor, it will make the condition worse.


What should we do?
It's kind of hard question to solve. Since, we all know, how big matters that made Jakarta having this flood attack every year. We can't blame the high rain intensity, we shouldn't be, because rain is Allah's giving.. So if it becomes a disaster, who else to blame? It's ourself.. as human, who actually caused this. Jakarta already broken the nature being in there until it isn't balance anymore. Too many deforestation. Too many green area used for buildings. Not only that, I get a lil bit disappointed every time I watch a television program that reporting Flood in Jakarta, and the host said..
"Wish the Jakarta's Government could quickly overcome this problem.." 

Wait a minute. So you just hoping the Government is the one who should take an action here? and you wish this problem will be finished? How much time you wish it would take, if you're hoping like that?

Let's counting, how many Government's people that can take action? And how many Jakarta's residents that can take action? It won't ever make sense when you're wishing just The Government that should take an action to overcome this problem and the society not. You're all living in that area together. You produce the garbage, you used the land for making home, you keep coming there with hope that you'll get a better economy, life, etc and when the problem comes up..you're just hoping the Government will finished it...

We all can start helping by doing little things.. Like, don't ever throw garbage anywhere. throw it at the trash can. Or maybe reuse it for something useful again. It's only a simple thing :) 
Maybe we don't notice it, when we throw a piece of plastic in a canal.. and we think, 
"ah it's not a big thing. nothing will happen"
But, how if you keep doing it once every 5 days, multiply it into a month, and a year, and 9.809.857 head. Is it still won't make big thing happen again? 

For bigger solutions.. there're must be a lot. but i believe, most of them will take times. because, the problems're in huge scale. 

1. Do transmigration -> equalization of population -> equalization development
Indonesia is a big country. It contains of..many region. Java, Borneo, Papua, Sumatera, Sulawesi. But, all the society mostly concentrated in Java. Why? Because, the development in this country's uneven. Imagine, if every region in this country, happening an equal development's grade.. The society's numbers. The economy's growth numbers. The resources exploration rate.
Not only the flood matter that will be solved, but also the others problems, such as reduce the unemployment numbers, reduce the traffic jam in high ways, and so many else in the future.

2. Do the vertical's direct construction
One of my college's teacher, in Transportation Building major, ever told me.. as the society growth and the need of massive public facilities's getting higher. We should take an advantage of the vertical's direct construction. vertical's direct is unlimited space that we can used. Like, in developed country, as Japan, American already did. it will surely take times until Indonesia can become like this below.. but.. hey, nothing's impossible ;)
*)P.S: if you don't understand what I mean, these're the examples of vertical's direct construction

Los Angeles's Highway (img src: google.com)

3. Repair/rebuild, and keep maintenance the drainage system
Since, the drainage system like, water pump, flood gate, is still human's production. Slowly, they could get broken by the time. So, people should take a serious maintenance of it. Every 3 month, every 6 month, or every year, maybe. It sure will take cost, but prevention is better than repressive, isn't it?

Compared with the cost that should spend for the maintenance, i'm sure it will less than the cost for keeping back the city condition. less than resident's properties that broken by the flood.





Last but not least.. let's wishing all the best for our brothers and sisters out there.. which was hit by the flood, may you all blessed in Allah's shelter and kindness.. let's save our environment since now.. we are the ones who can prevent ourself from bad things. May Every incident is in Allah's will. but we must make an effort. Take the lesson..and learn from that.. bismillahirohmanirohim.. :)

Three Gorges DAM

Hey, I Just watched National Geographic Channel. It's talking about Three Gorges DAM in China. They compare it with others barrage which already built earlier than this, such as.. Hoover DAM in USA, Krasnoyarsk DAM in Russia, etc.

I could take a summary from watching this spectacle, that, how important is it to learn from others things that has been there earlier. Yes, we should make an evaluation from things around us. We should learn, which one is good and which one is bad from that things, then.. we use and follow the good ones and we change/recycle/rearrange the bad ones. So that, we could.. produce a better thing afterwards 

In this show, NatGeo channel showed us, how.. greater is it the Three Gorges DAM at China, its strength, its making way, its used technology, its mechanism, its surplus, its different than the others dam in the world. And it is really really massive cool! This show showed us, how wisdom are the Chinese people in the making of this dam.

The Three Gorges DAM (source: wikipedia)

I can't exactly tell you what's the intention of this barrage with another barrage, since it used a higher language on Civil theory.. (especially on water construction major) So you better, find its video (I provide you one below)



What makes the Three Gorges Dam special?

1. to construct this barrage, China needs to move away numbers of its population. They migrate them to some places in country, it also impact on China's economic system for some couple times, but I guess it has been solved, since with the construction of this DAM it means that Chinese quality are raised. They somehow already in higher level. They have another facility to support their life. They have DAM which the world's largest hydro power, i mean the sacrifice they've made are paid off.

2. When DAM's already operating, its water that fall down from the barrage will have a damage power to the land below them. Slowly.. it could reduce the barrage's land power, it scrape the soil layer below the building, and make the building collapse, because they're not strong enough for keeping the pressure that keep coming from the water. So, Three Gorges used a new method which adapted from Grand Coulee DAM in US State to overcome this problem,

if the Grand Coulee make a curvature concrete below their DAM, Three Gorges build it above the water (the red ones), so after the water fall down the barrage, they splashed until around 100m up, so  it won't have a distracted power anymore, the foundation land won't be deflected

source: google.com , This's how the water splashed outside the water space

3. Since, Three Gorges DAM placed in Yangtze river, it's one of busiest river in Asia, it's really useful for the traffic. With the Three Gorges DAM construction it will destruct the traffic activity in there. So, Chinese engineer, made a similar way which used at Krasnoyarsk DAM in Russia. They made a lift which using the water power (adapt the hydraulic pump theory).. So it can lift the ships from one side to another side of the DAM. 

4. The Three Gorges DAM's engineer could find out a method to make its building material which won't lose with nature's power.

And another excess that i haven't been mentioned since i still lack on English (i wish i could increase it soon), and my civil knowledge not that much yet, but soon I will, aamiin ;) I just wanna share you an info that I just got, well, Three Gorges DAM has been produce an ultimate hydro power for China, It really give much impact on many things in China, their Economical, their transportation, their flood problems, their irrigation, their electricity) .. and so many else, which grow to better and higher level. And made China into one of developed country in the world. 

We should learn many things from this. We could see.. how Allah already provide us with things in nature, water, sunshine, which can be used for something more useful. which can produce big power to be used. We as a human..just should keep learn and learn and find a way how to make things possible..and being useful.

Allah gives us sense and mind, to safe this world, to live in this world, Bismillah may Allah shows us always the wise way..to through. it's one of human's masterpiece. it's a real evidence, that yes we're capable to make big things, whatever is that, however they seems from too impossible -> to be possible. Crazy ideas are the biggest idea. People said if your dreams aren't scared you enough... that means they're not big enough. Keep imagining, keep dreaming, and work for it. Nobody knows if one day we could make them true. The ones who success are ones that have courage and believe in their dreams.  Subbhanallah :)

As for what Gordon-Levitt wants in a woman, he tells, “Making checklists of things you’re looking for in a person is the numero uno thing you can do to guarantee you’ll be alone forever.”
He adds, “You just have to pay attention, keep your eyes open, listen to people and be present. I guess what I look for in a girl is someone who’s doing that too.”

Yay!

Well, today was another great and tiring day for me! I slept only three hours this morning and now, I just got home at 11 PM for accompanying my mom to meet up with her friends. So what's up today? Bheuh! today me and some of my friends (icha, egar, yunita, ika, bella, and tio) went to Car Free Day Darmo. It was a sudden plan from Egar. I got the info from Icha, she asked me to join them vending at CFD, and they need me to help them bringing the goods from Icha's house to Darmo. I thought it was a good chance to get a new experience, so I agreed. Alhamdulillah, Although, we got there too late, we still made to sell our goods! And it almost sold out! :) 

Actually, I wasn't feeling pretty well, since it was crowded in there. but It was my first time, joining Car Free Day at Darmo since it's far from my home, so I had a good time this morning :3 There are many moments that i could see while I was there. I met some of my high school's friends. I also saw a Sugar Glider, from KGSI (a community of its lovers) And what's most important is.. Todaay, I learnt how hard was it to earn money. How 3000 could be so so precious.. That's why we should be grateful for every rezeki that Allah has given to us :) 


thanks to Tio for capturing us :3

Owner of the day
P.S: Good job! to Icha and dedek Faiz, for making the Sari Dele. And thanks to Egar, for the invitation! Looking forward for next time! Ok, that's all for today! Happy Monsterday all. Hoaaam~

last saturday in 2013

Hello, Rizka's coming again :3 rajin banget kan aku ya :3 Ngepost terus :3 maklum lagi kurang kerjaan, wkwkwk duuh nggak sadar diri :)) padahal tugas asistensi masih terlantar ._. Gppa wes, nanti malem kan aku ngerjain kok ;) (oh dunia harus tau gitu cil --) 

I don't have much things to do today, because daddy need to work, my brother isn't at Surabaya, and I don't have a boyfriend :3 (lhoh apa hubungannya cil :p)  so I just spend my Saturday at home. Gonna share you what I've done today! Yuk cekidot ;)

1. Cycling
Have I ever told you how much I like cycling? :3 Yes! I do really love to go cycling. Usually I do this routine every Saturday and Sunday morning. But I haven't doing this quite long, because those busy weeks of school, so I'm so happy today cause finally i could go cycling :3 I have my usual track, Tenggilis and Pakuwon City. I don't go too far, because my parents don't allow me go further since I'm a girl and I go cycling myself, so they think i should take care :3

Friday


Thanks God it's Friday yay ! Finally I woke up earlier this morning :') My normal sleep hours is back, so so happy.. Currently doing my task with friends in this early day, wish it was a good sign that I would be back productive again in days on :p

**

Gonna continue my last morning post. Yesterday, My friday was keep going on. so I just arrived at home from Malang this morning, for taking my brother back there because he'll have an exam today, i have no idea how my brother's feeling to have an exam on Saturday? A bit suck, i guess ckck.. Beside, we took my brother back to Malang, me and my family were coming to my mom's friend's house first. It placed at Lawang and the weather there was really nice. The house has a big yard and good view, it's a 1948's building, so vintage and classic. Such a comfy place to relieve all stresses. After had chit-chat, we were treated by  a super delicious dinner. I ate much enough (as always) :P. My mom's friend really had an unique family, he has ten siblings, and all of them are really like to make jokes even though they're no longer a teenager :)))) (they're already 50-68 years old) 

So..last night me and my family just couldn't stop laughing to hear their stories =)) Not only told numbers of funny stories but they also gave my family some 'wejangan' since they're older than us so they already had more experiences in life, and it really worth to hear.

From them, i can learn so many things.. I see, how beautiful is the togetherness in a family. Since we're growing up together with them, from a tiny baby until insya' Allah being a grandmother / grandfather (aamiin), they're the ones who know our good and bad, then still accept and love us, endlessly. they're the ones who always gonna be there when we're up or down, when we're happy or sad, when we're holding too much or angry, the ones who's gonna catch us whenever we fall. Place where we could be who we are. No pretending, no drama, it just a place where we can simply be ourself.. 

And place where we can always calling it, home.


“Home is where you are loved the most and act the worst.” 
― Marjorie Pay Hinckley

Yes, even though we ever argue each other, so many times about so many stuffs, in the end we also know how to forgive each other. Look through and see how deep deep in my heart, i know that how big is my love for my family, they're irreplaceable, they're the numero uno. they're  ones in the whole universe, and I'm so thankful to Allah SWT for sending me such guardians in this earth, one pack with...their goodness.. their flaws.. their loves.. and their spirits..

Go discover some new places

Heyhoo! Feeling good after waking up, Alhamdulillah still got a chance from Allah SWT to breath the air again today, Wish everyone is in a good health of course ;)

Well, I’m so thankful that I’ve been having good pals around, they’re my college’s friends, tehee. I know that we are so kemriyek most time, but I swear ya, we are good kids. we are just have some trouble on holding to not laughing :)) We already had good times together indeed! 

We have schedule on  every Wednesday to try some ‘kuliner’ in our city, Surabaya. In order to not bored for bringing lunch from home everyday. Though, we just only did it for couple times (looking forward for next times ahead yeayyy!), I already had so much funny times with them.

Like… anytime I’m hanging around with them, I could be somebody close to I am. Talk what I wanna talk. Sad. Badmood. Sick. Angry. Makes some jokes till we can’t stop laughing so hard. Shares some stories. Singing with my…ehm..bad voice. Study together. And travel to some places.




On Wednesday two weeks ago, We went to Aiola, since some of us coming from different cities, so they have not been here before. We bought different foods in there, there are Gado-gado, siomay, batagor, mi pitik, nasi goreng, es campur, etc. You only need to pay less than Rp 15.000 to get those yummy meals plus the drink! :9 By the way, we also bought two glasses of chocolate milk and then we drank it together. It’s so ROTFL (even mbak-mbak yang jualan pun ngetawain kita saking kordesnya) Moreover, it’s only a glass that contains of 1 liter milk in there, but there were 7 straws inside, and we must share it for 12 people -_- 

On Wednesday weeks ago, me, derai, icha, and bibip went to Soto Ayam Lamongan Cak Har on Jl. Arief Rahman Hakim. By the way Soto is a kind of soup which colored yellow contains of slices of chicken, white noodle, rice, fried union, and koya :9 Best to taste in warm condition and don’t forget to eat them with Krupuuk ya! :9 By paying Rp 14.000 you could felt awesomely full after ate them! since the Soto is really yummy many and …. presented with so many koya zuurrpppp, haaaa heaven of the world ~

on last Friday we went to House of Sampoerna because Derai haven’t gone there. then we continued our journey to Hotel of Majapahit :D Such a beautiful historical place to visit!

House of Sampoerna (image source: google.com)
House of Sampoerna is an exhibition place of cigarettes producer in Surabaya. Presenting some old photos, furniture, kinds of tobacco, and marching band. There also featured with a digital computer to see videos, photos, and information. On the second floor, there is a place for buying souvenirs and watch the process of cigarette’s making lively! :D

But what most attract us to go there that afternoon is to try the “Surabaya Heritage”, short journey to see some tourist destination in Surabaya by taking on a bus. That friday the schedule written going to Kampung Kraton. Cak Durasim, and City Hall. but sadly we didn’t catch the departure times. Huhuhu. Maybe next time! ;)

Last one is…*drums roll*

The Hotel Majapahit's beautiful view in advance (image source: google.com)

Hotel Majapahit Surabaya \m/ One of historical place that still treated well in Surabaya. A hotel where the Holland’s flag teared by Arek-arek Suroboyo accident held. Place that made Surabaya being well known as The city of heroes :) Providing a view of building in Holland’s era. Old yet so classy ;) You could see some nice parks with fountains in the center of it while walking on its classic corridors. Like..you can treasuring back to the past B) Especially when you enter the rest room…uh baby though it feels a bit creepy..you certainly could feels and see how’s the Holland era in there..hrrrr :))

P.S You don’t need to pay anything just to see how’s inside the Hotel, free parking beybi :)

Letting Go


Losing someone in our life may the most pathetic things  that should happens in our life. Whether that person's going into the other dimension from us or going into another place and different times from we placed, which we apart from them. I believe and I know that it must be a hard time, when we should learn to let them go, holding on thousand memories that we had with them back then, alone.

well, actually, Alhamdulillah i haven't properly losing someone that really close to me, in my life. But I know.. soon or late, one day, myself or people that i love, one by one, will leave this world into the afterlife and back to their Owner. they're now still alive and I'm so thankful to Allah SWT for giving them long ages so they can stay here with me. And i just can wishing them all the best, healthiness, long ages, and happiness..

Now, I understand. When I'm riding at the night, remembering how my life was and thinking how my life is. Yesterday i had this..and that.. and now I don't have this.. and that.. From those little things I could take summary that there's nothing immortal in this world. Everything's just a temporary things. All that we have is only a deposit. Since it was a deposit, of course, one day the Owner's gonna take it back.

Lost is an usual thing that happens in reality. The hard thing is to let it go. Especially when what we lost..is something that really precious to us, something that we love the most, it's like a 'limited edition' and there's only one in the world :'(

For me, lost is a momentum that we never know what influence that it may bring in our life. waking us up? dropping down us? making flat our life? making an unfair world to us? Losing somebody/something could bring us closer to our Maker or further from Him? Those all depend to ourself. How smart are we to take a summary of its every accident. If we do believe that everything happens for a reason, i believe, slowly we're gonna accept it and judge it wiser about that thing. Lost can make people like.. they have soul inside their body, but they don't feel alive. Going everywhere with an empty sight, thinking about thousand old memories, beautiful but pseudo. or the way, keep living although their souls ever scratched and banged with hurt. But here they are, it's life, if there's a beginning there's gonna be an end. Morning comes not just a sign that it's already 7 AM we need to get up and go for school. No, it's not. Morning comes to remind us that after every darkness, insya' Allah there will new light rises. And use that for a reason to us, a reason to keep moving on in this short life..

Sadness is humanitarian. Cause Allah gives us a felling to can feel each other. Loving, hating, caring, respecting, adoring, etc. But till when, a grey sky's hanging above your day? Maybe they do refresh you with thousands beautiful memories back then. Okay, for some couple times, that's ok. Because, memories are a black-white film that formed how we are today. But remember, Allah makes this earth with successive seasons, hazy, rainy, sunny, snowy. So we can learn from them.. Never ungrateful for everything that you've got or you haven't yet today.

Life is a balance.. :)
Life is keep spinning.. :)
Life is a mystery.. :)
But don't forget.
Life is a gift that Allah gives to us..
And a gift must be a beautiful thing to we have :)
Maybe not right in this time, but eventually.

"You will never know how hard is it to let go of something until you feel it yourself"
For everyone that just lost somebody/something. for everyone that must live without them that used to be there. There are still many stories that you haven't read. There are still many blank pages that you haven't written with your life's stories. Never stop smiling for them that used to make you smile.. :)

sealay apa seh?

sering banget dibully sama anak kelas, apalagi anak-anak cowok, gara-garanya, gak tau, perasaan ya biasa aja, masa aku ini dibilang alay, huft banget kan? =)) gak cuman di kuliah ini aja se. dulu SMA juga, keuwingeett ngettt banget yang paling menyayat hati =))

Jadi, waktu kelas 12 SMA itu, pelajaran bahasa Inggris, dapet tugas dari guru tercinta, Mr. Sugeng, buat main 'bee-keeper' gitu. Jadi tiap anak di kelas, maju ke depan, ambil kertas yang isinya, siapa 'bee'nya kalian. (lhoh sek sek btw yang jadi bee ku sapa ya?) =)) nahh terus. setiap pertemuan kita itu disuru bikin surat gitu buat bee gitu. terus pertemuan lanjutannya suratnya dibaca di depan. sekaliaan be'e ada yang wes bisa nebak siapa bee keepernya sapa juga gpp.

nhah terus itu temenku, Kharis, mbaca suratnya dari bee keepernya dia depan gitu kan, ada kata2 "hehe" "yaaw" nya gitu, nyampek Kharisnya mbaca nya sambil ngakak2, terus pas sudah selesai mbaca, ditanyai sama Pak Sugeng,

"do you know who's your bee keeper?" 

terus lhoo, gak cuman Kharis yang jawab, Reggy, Antony, gatau dari zona degradasi pokoknya, isoke langsung, "sopo maneh seng alay, acil laaaaaaaaaaaahhh" nueges. nguetek. pasang muka menuduh.
wkwkwkwk mangkelin caak =)) lek seng alay-alay ae kok langsung aku =))
Padahal lho guduk dan beneran bukan aku :')

Gak cuman itu. Pas, udah kebukti bukan bee keepernya, aku langsung dijadiin tersangka kasus lain di kelas. Jadi dikelasku itu, ada seorang anak, yang......ya 'begitulah'. yang.....'digituin' sama anak-anak kelas. Yaah, biasa lah, di kelas, pasti ada aja kan anaknya.. =)) lahkok, pas udah tenang-tenang ndak jadi tertuduh dari bee keeper Kharis yang nulis surat dengan beberapa kata alay, masa aku dituduh jadi bee keepernya anak itu :'(

Mesti kalo ditanya pak Sugeng,
"siapa yang jadi bee keepernya *tiiittt* nanti temui saya ya?"
Mesti anak zona degradasi rame dewe
"Kon yo cil?"
"Cil ngakuo cil"
"Cil ikuloo cil, istirahat, ojok lali."

Mangkelin caak, mesti lek tak tanya, "lapoo se kok mesti aku"
"lhah kamu lak yang sering duduk sama dia..............trs omong2an"
Wkwkwk ancen seh, lhah yaapa, aku mesti gadapet temen duduk, gara2nya mesti dateng mepet2, mbasio ga dateng mepet yaa mesti jek duduk kambe dee se, lhah terus masa leek duduk sebangku ga tak ajak ngomong, hngg hnggg kan aku anak bangsa yang baik berbudi luhur. :') kita semua kan teman, apa salahnya broo :))

padahal bisa diliat sendiri, kalo yang di baris paling belakang lebih alay :))

ugh jadi kangen :'(
                             
***
Nhah lahkok ternyata, masa tertuduhku sebagai orang alay nggak berakhir seiring aku lulus dari SMA, namun berlanjut juga di bangku perkuliahan... masa perasaan aku ngmg biasa-biasa aja, "ooo alaay" terus ancen seh, beberapa akhir ini, aku dtt punya tata bahasa baru, ancen seh, tak akui, iki alay sajane, tapi niat kami itu baik, supaya kita semua belajar peka :))

jadi, hmm udah pernah lihat bayu skak? sebenernya aku dtt ga terilhami dari bayu skak se, emang dulu kalo ga salah pas OK2BK jurusan pernah disetelin tapi yauda lupa sih, nhah jadi misalnya ak mau bilang,
"aku kebelet pipis, temenin aku poo"
itu bakal jadi
"a k p, t a p"

=))
gara-gara semenjak ini :'( ciyus peek, aku sering dikatain, apalagi ambe doyok iku, jarene alay. mesti dikatain, "ohhh alay komunity, tak join pooo" nggak cumn aku se, derai pisan =)) jadi keleng ceritanya derai, kan pas itu aku sama derai lagi sibuk ngerjain asistensi di pojokan kelas sama le dawas, terus jare iku, derai iku denger, ono seng celuk celuk "lay he alay he alay" tapi ga ngerti iku gawe sapa, eh lhakok pas derai noleh samping, doyok iku lagi lihatin ke arahe derai, =)) terus bertemu pandang, terus doyoke bilang
"ohhh ngeroso yo mbak?"

=))
tapi lhooo beneeran, semenjak pake bahasa gituan, kita sekelas makin punya chemistry (alah lah) satu sama lain, lumayan kan efisien pita suara mas broo. tapi pernah nih, kebiasaan bertata bahasa seperti ini kebawa waktu ada kelas. Seminggu yang lalu, di hari Jumat, salah satu dosen sedang mengajarkan mata kuliahnya. Aku pun memfokuskan pendengaran, ketika beliau selesai menjelaskan, aku menyeletuk "y", maksudnya ya aku paham, dan ternyata cuman aku yang nyeletuk -_- jadi "y" ku terdengar keras. diantara keheningan kelas. Dosenku pun membalas, "Apa y? Kok y?" kemudian mata anak2 sekelas berpusat ke aku =)) termasuk ibunya dan diguyuin, --

=))
yang paling hits akhir-akhir ini, dipanggil "btw" sama anak2, duh padahal yang suka ngmg btw itu nggak cuman aku, lagipula lhoo yang ngilokin aku "btw btw" itu juga sukanya ngmg pake "btw". duh resek kok emang anak-anak iki :'( udah gitu sekarang ga cuman anak cowo, bahkan anak2 ceweknya juga, vio iku apa maneh -_- "lhoh ada btw"
plis itu mlt bgt guys.

PUHUHU emangnya aku segitu alay nya yooh?

Sempat kena super trap sama Bibila maunya lihat Andrew Garfield main basket..eh pertandingan ditunda.. emang ga baik mengkadali teman sendiri ya bib, nahlo =))

Terus setelah galau2 sendiri eh malaah ada telp masuk =))) yaudah terus rizka nanya mama boleh ikut apa enggak, ternyata mama ayah ngijinin yaudaah kalo uda dapet restu dari orang tua ngerti sendiri kan rasanya? pertanda baik.

The light of my life



Semakin berkembangnya zaman, akal dan daya pikir manusia yang kini ada pun tentu saja semakin maju. Tingkat mutu pendidikan yang semakin tinggi, sistem yang menuntut kita sebagai “anak jaman sekarang” untuk menjadi  kreatif dan kreatif... berpikir dari yang belum tiada agar tiada, ataupun sebaliknya dari yang ada menjadi ditiadakan, dari  membuktikan yang sudah ada, apakah benar-benar ada? Dan yang lain-lain. Apalagi di sebuah sistem yang didominasi sebuah paham ‘liberalisme’ ataupun ‘demontrasi’ dimana keutamaan sesuatu yang dinamakan hak manusia diagung-agungkan, banyak menimbulkan cabang-cabang pikiran baru. Tidak hanya mengenai teknologi, ilmu pengetahuan, namun juga pandangan hidup, agama misalnya.

Teringat sebuah percakapan saya dengan ayah saya bertahun-tahun lalu. Kita berdiskusi tentang bagaimana Allah sebagai Tuhan yang saya percaya di mata penganut agama-agama lain, Sampai obrolan kami berujung ke pertanyaan-pertanyaan yang lebih dalam dan saya rasa, pertanyaan-pertanyaan itu akan memiliki jawaban  yang tidak bisa di rasionalkan. Contoh kecil, "gimana ya caranya Allah mengatur alam semesta ini?" atau gausalah memikirkan tentang semesta, coba tanya "Kok bisa ya aku ada?"

Menurut saya, itu adalah hal sederhana yang bisa membuat kita sadar dan akhirnya mengakui kalo, harfiahnya di dunia ini pasti ada suatu zat yang lebih luar biasa dari kita dan memiliki kemampuan jauh dari batas kemampuan kita, yang biasa kita sebut sebagai Tuhan. 

Saya pernah bertanya-tanya sendiri, kenapa ya, kalau bayi yang baru lahir itu adalah fitrahnya seorang manusia, masih bersih dari dosa, kenapa ga semua bayi itu lahir dengan agama Islam? Karena dalam Al-Quran pun disebutkan bahwa Islam adalah agama yang benar di mata Allah dan Allah adalah yang menciptakan mereka.

Apa karena, kita berada dalam sebuah sistem, dimana agama merupakan warisan dari orang tua, agama merupakan turunan, mengapa bayi-bayi itu tidak memiliki hak untuk memilih agamanya? Apa karena mereka lahir belum bisa bicara? Lalu, tidakkah bayi-bayi itu begitu malang?

Kembali lagi ke percakapan saya dengan ayah saya, terakhir kali saya berbicara dengan beliau, ayah saya berpesan, "Jangan menanyakan hal-hal yang kamu tau jawaban nya itu ngga akan kamu bisa temuin. Tau kan? jaman sekarang, ngga sedikit orang yang memilih untuk tidak beragama, atau mungkin membuat aliran-alirannya sendiri. Ya karena seperti ini awalnya, mereka gabisa menemukan jawaban dari pertanyaan mereka sendiri."

Di Indonesia sendiri, ada lima agama yang diakui, bahkan keberadaan agama begitu di junjung bahkan sampai ada di sila pertama pancasila. Karena, memang, kita hidup harus ada pondasi nya, yaitu agama. Dan tiap agama-agama memiliki tuhan, surga, dan neraka nya sendiri. jadi, apakah berarti, Tuhan yang mengatur alam semesta ini juga lima? surga yang kita tuju berbeda? neraka yang dituju berbeda? Bisa bayangkan, sebuah sistem diatur oleh lima pemimpin? Apa yang kira2 terjadi? Pernah lihat film Percy Jackson? Tau kan, disitu diceritakan ada beberapa dewa yang masing2 memiliki konsentrasi yang berbeda? Ada petir, air, dan sebagainya. Dan itu terjadi pertikaian. lalu bagaimana dengan lima Tuhan yang entah bagaimana pembagian konsentrasinya? Tidakkah semestinya bumi ini bisa sudah menjadi musnah berabad-abad yang lalu bersama dengan para Dinosaurus?

Dari sini, bisa dilihat, kalau meskipun ada beberapa agama dan aliran yang ada sekarang, tiap-tiap agama itu percaya akan adanya: hanya satu zat yang Esa, orang yang baik akan mendapat imbalan yang baik di kehidupan selanjutnya kelak, entah itu disebut surga, nirwana, dan orang yang berbuat jahat akan mendapat balasan yang buruk dan setimpal di kehidupan selanjutnya. 

Keberadaan Allah itu ada dari persepsi dan rasa percaya kita sendiri. Orang bilang inilah yang disebut Iman, percaya terhadap sesuatu yang belum pernah kita jumpai atau tidak pernah kita lihat, namun benarkah kita belum pernah berjumpa dengan-Nya?

Buat saya, iman kita dalam suatu agama merupakan buah dari perjalanan religi masing-masing individu. Kita percaya pasti karena sudah pernah mengalami hal itu sendiri. Mungkin kita pernah merasa bertemu dengan-Nya maka dari itu kita terus percaya akan Dia. Buat saya, Allah itu ada disini. Di setiap kali saya memejam mata, berdoa, bernafas, berdetak,  dan lain-lain. Allah selalu melindungi di sekeliling

Sedikit renungan..., 

Apakah Tuhan Menciptakan Kejahatan? 

Seorang Profesor dari sebuah universitas terkenal menantang mahasiswa-mahasiswanya dengan pertanyaan ini, "Apakah Tuhan menciptakan segala yang ada?". 

Seorang mahasiswa dengan berani menjawab, "Betul, Dia yang menciptakan semuanya". 
"Tuhan menciptakan semuanya?" Tanya professor sekali lagi. "Ya, Pak, semuanya" kata mahasiswa tersebut.
Profesor itu menjawab, "Jika Tuhan menciptakan segalanya, berarti Tuhan menciptakan Kejahatan. Karena kejahatan itu ada, dan menurut prinsip kita bahwa pekerjaan kita menjelaskan siapa kita, jadi kita bisa berasumsi bahwa Tuhan itu adalah kejahatan.

" Mahasiswa itu terdiam dan tidak bisa menjawab hipotesis professor tersebut. Profesor itu merasa menang dan menyombongkan diri bahwa sekali lagi dia telah membuktikan kalau Agama itu adalah sebuah mitos. 

Mahasiswa lain mengangkat tangan dan berkata, "Profesor, boleh saya bertanya sesuatu?".
"Tentu saja," jawab si Profesor, 
Mahasiswa itu berdiri dan bertanya, "Profesor, apakah dingin itu ada?" 
"Pertanyaan macam apa itu? Tentu saja dingin itu ada. 
Kamu tidak pernah sakit flu?" Tanya si professor diiringi tawa mahasiswa lainnya.
Mahasiswa itu menjawab, "Kenyataannya, Pak, dingin itu tidak ada. 
Menurut hukum fisika, yang kita anggap dingin itu adalah ketiadaan panas. Suhu -460F adalah ketiadaan panas sama sekali. Dan semua partikel menjadi diam dan tidak bisa bereaksi pada suhu tersebut. Kita menciptakan kata dingin untuk mendeskripsikan ketiadaan panas." 

Mahasiswa itu melanjutkan, "Profesor, apakah gelap itu ada?" Profesor itu menjawab, "Tentu saja itu ada." 
Mahasiswa itu menjawab, "Sekali lagi anda salah, Pak. Gelap itu juga tidak ada. Gelap adalah keadaan dimana tidak ada cahaya. Cahaya bisa kita pelajari, gelap tidak. Kita bisa menggunakan prisma Newton untuk memecahkan cahaya menjadi beberapa warna dan mempelajari berbagai panjang gelombang setiap warna. Tapi Anda tidak bisa mengukur gelap. Seberapa gelap suatu ruangan diukur dengan berapa intensitas cahaya di ruangan tersebut. Kata gelap dipakai manusia untuk mendeskripsikan ketiadaan cahaya." 

Akhirnya mahasiswa itu bertanya, "Profesor, apakah kejahatan itu ada?"
Dengan bimbang professor itu menjawab, "Tentu saja, seperti yang telah kukatakan sebelumnya. 
Kita melihat setiap hari di Koran dan TV. Banyak perkara kriminal dan kekerasan di antara manusia. Perkara-perkara tersebut adalah manifestasi dari kejahatan." 

Terhadap pernyataan ini mahasiswa itu menjawab, "Sekali lagi Anda salah, Pak. 
Kejahatan itu tidak ada. Kejahatan adalah ketiadaan Tuhan. Seperti dingin atau gelap, kejahatan adalah kata yang dipakai manusia untuk mendeskripsikan ketiadaan Tuhan. 
Tuhan tidak menciptakan kajahatan. Kejahatan adalah hasil dari tidak adanya Cahaya Tuhan dihati manusia. Seperti dingin yang timbul dari ketiadaan panas dan gelap yang timbul dari ketiadaan cahaya."
Profesor itu terdiam.

Nama mahasiswa itu adalah Albert Einstein.

****

lakukan apa yang terbaik dengan apa yang kita percaya, dan berharap semoga Allah selalu memberi kesempatan pada kita untuk memperbaiki diri. Kemana kita akan kembali, agama manakah yang benar, semua itu Allahualam, semua itu rahasia Allah, yang terlihat baik belum tentu memang baik dan yang paling baik adalah menjadi baik di mata-Nya. Pelan asal yakin, sedikit namun berkelanjutan insyAllah nggak akan sia-sia.

43. Tidaklah kamu melihat bahwa Allah mengarak awan, kemudian mengumpulkan antara (bagian-bagian)nya, kemudian menjadikannya bertindih-tindih, maka kelihatanlah olehmu hujan keluar dari celah-celahnya dan Allah (juga) menurunkan (butiran-butiran) es dari langit, (yaitu) dari (gumpalan-gumpalan awan seperti) gunung-gunung, maka ditimpakan-Nya (butiran-butiran) es itu kepada siapa yang dikehendaki-Nya dan dipalingkan-Nya dari siapa yang dikehendaki-Nya. Kilauan kilat awan itu hampir-hampir menghilangkan penglihatan. (Q.S:An-Nur 43)

"Look inside yourselves, Such a perfect order, Hiding in yourselves, Running in your veins, What about anger love and pain, And all the things you’re feeling, Can you touch them with your hand? So are they really there? Lets start question in ourselves, Isn’t this proof enough for us? Or are we so blind, To push it all aside..? No.. We just have to,Open our eyes, our hearts, and minds, If we just look bright to see the signs, We can’t keep hiding from the truth, Let it take us by surprise, take us in the best way (Allah..), Guide us every single day..(Allah..) Keep us close to You, Until the end of time.."
- Maher Zain - Open Your Eyes.

Aamiin ya rabbal alamin.
