Prolog


Tak banyak yang tahu masalah hati, kadang beberapa orang memilih menyimpannya dalam-dalam seolah itu cerita paling berharga yang mereka punya, namun tak sedikit juga yang mampu membagikannya kepada orang-orang di sekelilingnya. Hari ini, entah kenapa aku ingin menulis. Kadang perasaan mendadak terasa sesak, entah akan hal yang cukup penting, ataupun hanya sekedar hal-hal dan masalah receh seperti mood yang berubah memburuk seketika. Kupikir, mungkin dengan menumpahkannya disini,barangkali perasaanku akan baikan..

Bicara masalah hati, mungkin aku adalah tipe yang pertama. Entah kenapa, aku paling sulit membicarakan masalah perasaanku. Kadang kata-katanya sudah tergelincir di ujung lidah, terbatin menyeruak di dalam hati, namun sesaat kemudian, semua itu hilang begitu saja, dan kembali aku simpan sendiri. Mungkin aku sering bercerita, namun tak banyak yang aku maksudkan untuk menyampaikan apa yang aku rasakan sesungguhnya. Alih-alih, itu hanya caraku mengabadikan momen atau kejadian yang berarti untukku.

Maka, maafkan diri ini yang mungkin pernah salah dalam berkata dan berbuat. Maafkan diri ini bila belum mampu menyampaikan kata-kata epilog dalam cerita perjumpaan antara aku dan kamu, siapapun itu. Maaf bila diri ini tak mampu sampaikan rasa terima kasih dan permintaan maaf. Maaf, atas segala perasaan yang tak mampu aku utarakan, apapun itu. Mungkin kecewaku, marahku, sedihku, bersalahku, dan bahagiaku. Aku dan kamu sama hanyalah seorang manusia yang menjadi pemeran dalam film yang diciptakan oleh-Nya. Dan hanya semampu itulah kuasa kita, mengikuti peran dan alur cerita dari-Nya. Bukankah begitu? Maka, mungkin itulah apa yang menyebabkan kita ada pada keadaan kita saat ini.

Terkadang, kita akan menjadi sebuah prolog dalam kisah hidup orang lain, tanpa belum mencapai epilognya. Dan mungkin sebatas itu saja 'waktu' kita mampir dalam ceritanya. Apapun penyebabnya, pada akhirnya kita hanya mampu untuk menerima dan kembali menjalani hidup kita seperti biasa, dengan segala upaya kita untuk menjadi terbiasa dengan keadaan itu.

Syukur, hanya itu yang mampu aku sampaikan tentang apa yang aku rasa saat ini. Aku ingin merasa gembira tanpa harus khawatir membuat orang lain sedih. Mungkin aku sudah lelah terus memikirkan bagaimana caranya membuat orang lain tak sedih, sampai aku lupa akan perasaanku sendiri. So, I let it go. I want remember everything in a good way and smile anytime i think about it, and I wish you all do the same thing with me. Maybe, we ain't get time to write a proper Epilog for it. then, just  let us remember it this way.. 

Saat kita melepaskan yang terbaik, maka akan Allah gantikan yang lebih baik dari yang terbaik. Karena apa-apa yang kita anggap baik, belum tentu baik di mata Allah. Kata Mas, nggak ada yang kebetulan di dunia ini. Maka, akupun akan selalu percaya akan rencana-Nya. Tenang, semua akan indah pada waktunya.

November

beautiful scenery at Paralayang and Pantai Gua Cina

Hey blog..
finally i got a free time for awhile, at least it's still 4 hours until i need to do something again. so, I want to fulfill my promise to someone that asked me at ask.fm hehe..

yes, I've been being so busy lately.. my academic and non academic's activities, both kept me running, mostly at this November. I even never spent my weekend at home! So these are what I did last month.. (especially at the weekend)
1) Done one of training's following event at my campus.
2) Done one of my task, went out with friends, slept over at her house, then the next day I went to Car free day, and played basketball.
3) Went to support my major KJI team at Malang
4) Had RAKER and watched Maliq.
and at the weekdays, I had a super tiring school's days because I got such a much tasks, a heavy series of practices, lot of evaluations, and another activities.

It can be a super long story if I should write every detail that happened to me, so I will just tell you the highlight part of it ;-) okey?

So, the training's following event that I've done was called TD Pusaka. I was being an OC in there. Like usual, I need to prepare things that needed, wake up earlier, etc. But the good news is I did it with my other 50+25 friends :) So, the tiredness were paid back by having a good time with them! :) Btw, from that activity, me and my friends have new toy to play, it's called "Break claps". It's a series of clapping hand with different patterns from 1 to 7, and it's challenging because it has a nice and engrossed sounds. Beside that, me and Vio was taught (not-so) privately by someone that I can't tell the name. :p

The next weekend, I had an even crazier days! It happened when my friends, Vio and Bibib asked to finish our Mektek Task together. actually, we supposed to do it at KFC Kertajaya with Hisyam, but suddenly these two girls popped front of my house, and all the plans were changed. At the end, we've done it at my house while eating an ice cream that we bought earlier :) But not so long after we started to do our homework.. we got bored.. and had an idea to go to Sutos instead hahaha! So.. yeah there we go.. SUTOS at 10 P.M!

Guess what we did in there? Yes, after goofing around for couple times, enter the stationery's store, watching people eating, then we end up by entering the cinema, buying the popcorn. And... only...watching.. trailer of films! :p

our sleepy faces
at 12 PM we went back, I had a sleepover at Vio's. It was raining on that day.. and suddenly omik answered my message, so we were chatting for awhile, but he's on busy mode that early morning so I decided joining Vio to sleep hihi. The next morning, Bibib picked me and Vio up! We went to help Icak vend at Car Free Day Darmo. Me and Vio bought socks in there! It was only 5000 and we got two pairs of it! :D So cheap huh, after tired walking around in there, finally we found Icak. Then we bought many foods, yeah! I ate up 1 portion of fried rice and 2 portions of grilled meatballs. Hweheheheehhhhh, so full! :)

After had my stomach full, we went to Basketball court at ITS Sukolilo. yeah, I played for some minutes in there :)) only randomly running with my shoes off.. and it felt hot! I also played free throw ball with Bibib and Vio. So, we had terms that before we throw the ball we should shout the name of someone that disturbing our mind hahahaha. So.. when I got my 3rd turned, I shout Tommy's name. "Ini buaaaaaaat omiiiiik" then I throw the ball, and dang! it was goal! :p But when I told him this story, he said that it was dramatic --" *sobs* yeah.. that's how I ended my crazy 2nd weekend! Woho!

Well..now we got on the 3rd weekend part. It will take too much words to describe the happiness of my 3rd weekend's journey. Maybe, these videos and pictures below would tell you better :)


failed video =))

 
better one =))

our happy faces! finally, beach!


This journey was especially dedicated for our friend Tiara who needs a refreshment because of something :) I hope you won't ever be sad again! After supporting our major's team at KJI and KBGI events, we made our own holiday! Yes, we spent 3 days and 2 nights at Batu-Malang. I was so happy that days, I met some of my high school's friends too in there, they were Hendro, Devy, and Nanda. It was good to feel the nice and cold weather of Batu-Malang (again).. having jokes with friends.. spent the night together.. at Alun-alun, at the car along the journey, etc. Being with the ones you loved and love you, always good, right? :) 

Thanks for the great holiday! As always.. Looking forward for the next! yeyy yeyy

Finally.... I reach the last part! It's my 4th weekend!
So, I have a new activity, I got accepted for being a staff at BEM FTSP, I'm at Communication and Information Department. I dont know how.. but I really liked my job.. It's like I'm not doing anything, because everything that I gotta do.. were my hobbies! Writing.. capturing moments.. editing photos. :) I know, Allah always knows the best. right? alhamdulillah. What's more exciting about it? I met many new friends in there. Hopefully I can get along well with them.. do every of my tasks in here well too.. and be consistent aamiin! 

last day activity.. after sitting for hours in 3 days! hoaam

after finished the raker sessions. Bibib and Vio (again) picked me up! Because we need to catch our interview test at chemical engineering building. Hehe, it was my first time went there, seriously guys after a year! ckckckck. Well.. if you 're going to ask me how was the test going?.. you better not :-) Maybe vio and bibib would answer it better (because they found something interesting in there..hahahaa).

at east coast

After we've done the interview sessions, we went to mosque and had a long chat in there. and at 8PM we went eating at East Coast, and as the closing part of this year's November! We watched Maliq D' Essentials! Woo! I thought, it was a great performance by them, because it has been awhile since the last time I watched a music concert..hehe.. by the way.. have i tell you that Bibib had her birthday on that 30th November? kindly shout "Happy birthday Bibib" yaa! And also don't forget to wish her the best wishes :)

So..that's how my November went.. see you folks! tasks are already waiting for me! bye

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

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.. :)

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.”
