Good morning…

pretty beautiful morning, its march…

ya…its march, march is coming, a blessing march of mine,..hhehehehe

Bulan bersejarah, bulan penuh event seru dan bulan yang selalu gwe tunggu tapi kadang bikin gwe headache juga… ??!%$#&*^)_+=|\?><{]

what makes it so? ya you know lah…

hmm..ada apa ya bulan ini? awal bulan aja ada Javajazz festival, yes it is!! Event setahun sekali yang keren abis dan sayang kalau dilewatkan.

pertengahan bulan…ada rencana penting yang selama ini tertunda2 terus, insyaallah kalo ga ada halangan bisa terwujud amin

akhir bulan? kyaaa…the most beautiful day in my life every year. The date that i begun the day that i usually receive so many warm thought and some presents…well i dont put a big hope on it. Pray and warm thought was more than enough for me.

Its just like my personal new year, the time to remind d’journey that i had, what am i gonna do on the next for the future, the newest plan, the greatest idea to make my life more colourfull and to be more thankfull to God for every little things happen in my life, for every piece of happyness and even tears, for lovely family that always support, bestfriend, friends…and whole lot more. After that, its time to celebrate, to give the present for my self and to be more cheerfull.

Im gonna make it better, im gonna reach all of my dreams, and make people proud of me. i’ll do my best.

thank you

pernah ketemu orang psycho?

or at least pasti pernah nonton sinetron atau filmnya gitu?

banyak film yang ngangkat tentang orang2 dengan sifat yang ‘njelehi’ alias aneh alias ’sakit jiwa’. Salah satunya yang pernah gwe tonton adalah yang diperankan sama vince vaughn (if im not mistaken). Film tentang orang yang tinggal sendiri di sautu kota terpencil, punya motel dan setiap tamu perempuan yang nginep dimotelnya pasti dibunuh. saking sayang sama ibunya, mayat ibunya diawetkan dan dia berpura2 jadi ibunya yang udah meninggal itu setiap malam2 tertentu.

nahh…its not actually about the movie it self, but its about the real thing. sekali lagi menyangkut yang namanya ‘love is blind’..huh!!

believe it or not, when woman in love, they can be more danger than a killer. yes its rite. so guys, you better be careful..hehe.

perempuan ya bo’, secara mahluk sejenis gwe juga..emang bisa lebih gila dan do many silly things, when they are in love with a man. Nie nie..terjadi nie sekarang. Ada pereu’ yang tergila2 (lets say that’s true) sama laki2, in case she never confess straightly, but the attitude express more than just a thousand of denial. She pretend to be another person, and ruin the love life that the man already had. She put the scenario in to the daily life, put the man at the wrong side in front of his girl then create some conflict to make the story getting bigger. Damn!!

well sorry, im not in, but i know how it feels, at least as a woman. very sorry to my friend who’s in this silly spooky games n just please ignore it.

if i were you, i would like to say this :

‘hey dumb, let me tell ya this. what the hell is on your stupid mind? if you think that it would be good and your games will get a happy ending, just dream it in a rest of your life.’

harigini ya bo’ jaman dah segini maju, relasi udah segitu banyak, apa sie yang ga bisa dilacak?

if you want to play the games, please notice the rules before. be invisible if its needed.

saran gwe ya, kalo mau jadi psycho..jangan nanggung2, kalo mau neror orang, yang canggih sekalian. jangan sampe terlacak, sewa alat2 canggihnya james bond dan tinggal di kutub utara kaya sinterklas or di bunker sekalian, so no one can get to know you. tapi tetep ya ‘how poor you are’. Abad 21 kelakuan jaman batu.

my pal, my friend, my bro’…sabar2 aja ya bo. just like i told you ‘Jagoan menangnya belakangan’ so let them know by them self, you dont need to announce anything. its just a game, so be the winner!!

love

fiuhh…sedikit bisa bernafas lega nie, for every little effort that we’ve made, we can make it good. yup. the exhibition is done, the result is not that bad, we achieve for the 2nd winner of the best stand exhibition. its content  of improvements from 5 areas. the preparation it self, take us to the deepest tired.

even we have a lil disappoint about the attention and support, but however we did it. honestly we concede that this is not the greatest yet, we must work harder and smarter in the future so we may get the best result.

then on saturday, i went to the new place with kiky and frans… we went to bakul coffie at bellagio mega kuningan, its nice place. actually i want to try the other one, in kemang. next time lah..ya ky ya. continue to plaza indonesia, i bought ‘passion flute nikkos’ cd, i like the sound…feel easy and calm. there i also found the wedding pictures exhibition..hmm nice picture. (ndut, you have to go there!!) and we enter the night in menteng, as usual. Frans got a big passion for eat, what’s going on with you boy?! hahah..

and by the end of weekend, i went to Inan, by my self…silly me, i slept between the process of traditional spa..haha poor me! then go to carwash, buy a lunch and go home, take a nap.

i know and i realized that we havent success for 100% and it will never be, if we never try and being satisfy fastly. we need to work, synergy and team work thats we all need. hope we can make it in the future.

once again, congratulations!

everybody have their own favorite love song, yes it is, include me.

lets say that love song is one of many guilty pleasure’s in the world..heheh

but then on last week, MTV put the show named ‘40 awesomely bad love song, ever!’

intinya sie jelas, acara itu ngebahas lagu2 cinta yang ‘GA BANGET’

dibahasnya dari segala sisi, mulai dari lirik, klip nya, sampai penyanyi dan cara nyanyi nya yang aneh ..huahaha!! sadis, bener2 sadis komentar2nya.

Seperti biasa yang jadi komentator adalah pengamat musik, komedian (tp bukan kaya pelawak kaya srimulat ya) dan artis tentunya.

Guilty pleasure, yes it is, why? because the things that you think very good, its not, definitely nothing, however, its only a jokes, please no hard feeling if your song was on the list..hehe.

- God must be spent (little more time on you)- N Sync, klipnya ga representative.

- Suddenly - Billy ocean, syairnya ngaco. Ga mungkin bangun tidur yang disadari adalah baru jatuh cinta, yang ada kalo bangun tidur itu realized sumthin stinky beside you.

- Get weak - Belinda Carlisle. Syairnya aneh. Orang jatuh cinta kok malah jadi lemah, yang ada bukannya jadi kuat?

- As long as you love me - Backstreet Boys. Bohong kalo ga perduli keadaan seseorang sebelum jatuh cinta, i bet you will consider sumthin on that person.

- I would do anything for love - Meatloaf. Gokil, gwe emang ga setuju abis ma nie lagu, dah panjang serasa ga kelar2, syairnya bolak-balik aja dan klip nya aneh, pake berlaga orang klingon startrek. ga banget

- I live my life for you - Firehouse. heheh gwe lupa nie lagu di cela dari sisi apanya. intinya tetep ga banget

- When i see you smile - ….?. yang nyanyi grup rock gitu d, cukup famous nie, sayang liriknya emang agak2 ngeyel, kritikusnya ngebayangin senyuman siapa dan kaya apa sie yang bisa bikin orang kuat ngadapin dunia? senyumnya wonder woman? heheh masih exist gitu? i dont think so

- Sherrie - ….? lupa juga nama penyanyinya. cowo gondrong, nyanyi teriak2 dan syairnya ngaco, bingung siapa yang mau pergi, dia apa cewenya, giliran cewe nya dah pergi dipanggil2 lagi pake teriak2 di tangga segala…damn!! apa sie maunya?

- Joanna - Kool and the gang. Hmm gwe rada ga setuju ya kalo nie lagu masuk kesini, karena biar klipnya garing ga jelas dengan model yang ga pas banget, tapi irama sama suara vokalisnya enak bo’! Beneran..tapi ya sud lah.. (ga mau rugi)

- Truly - lionel richie…heehhh??!! kok bisa? gwe lupa (dan emang ga setuju) apa alasannya ni lagu bisa masuk kesini, tapi ya sud lah.

haduhhh sayangnya gwe lupa yang lainnya apa lagi, ntar d kalo inget…ehheheh

sekarang lagi ngumpulin lagu2 cinta ala Indonesia yang TERUK abis!! hehe (pinjem istilahnya Malaysia bwat kata ‘BURUK’)

Colaboration with ndut, my partner in crime…kita ngakak pas nonton acara ini dalam waktu yang berbeda, karena dia nonton repeat nya ,secara waktu premiere nya listrik daerah cempaka putih masih mati gara2 banjir bandang ituh. hihihi

Tahniah. tahniah!! (alias congratulations in Malaysia..) haha gwe kebanyakan nonton film barat dengan teks Malaysia di Starmovies, jadi aneh gini

have a nice day

Because i thought i loved you
And i knew what i’d do
To make you weak and leave..
And thought that now I’ve found you
I just want to dump you
Inherently crazy that you are

When you tried to make a joke about me
People laughed and thought it was real
I didn’t think it was cool or funny at all
These embarrassments keep haunting me all night long
Step aside sitting under the tree
Realize you made all discourtesy
Why I was so blind think that you were mine
I made up my mind what a wasting time
But i do consider you..philanderer

Many people say how perfect you are
Ms.And Mr.Right come from the aisle…but
It won’t change a single thing and reason to doubt
I’m still ashamed and insane better go round and hide
Step aside sitting under the tree
Realize you made all discourtesy
Why I was so blind thought that you were mine
I made up my mind what a waste of time
But I do consider you..philanderer

I love you…I fond you…I dump you…Youre crazy

this is the last part of drama.

why i put ‘drama’ as a main title? cause i think, its all about a story, story that will always recur every year. just like we never take a lesson from every disaster. Flood.

pathetic, yes we are. keadaan yang bukannya membaik setiap tahun, tapi justru getting worse. awful. jujur gwe sendiri malu banget sebagai warga negara yang awam, bagian dari masyarakat jelata. but i know that i cant sitting here quietly, silently and do nuthin. ill do sumthin with my own way, started from a little things (honestly, watching people banish the garbage in the wrong place, make me upset) so please no more complain when flood’s happen again next time.

healing, now’s the time. after such a terrible disaster, as usual its time to heal the pain, the real pain or unreal pain, no different. so many people care about it, so many people do many things to help, so many reaction and so many hopes afterall. do we always care with others, like now?. please dont

remove, not just hope and pray, do something real. everything will be useless without any effort. with a help from God, everythings will be better in the future. amin ya robbal alamin.

———The End———–

with never ending pray & try

footnote: last nite, on one talkshow of Metrotv, there’s one man, the representative of Swedeen ambassador, Mr. Luf E (if im not mistaken). He open up the door and pleased to the refugees (its about 70) to move and stay for a while in his house. Spontaneous and no intention. More than that. He also tell the story before sleep for the childrens who lived together with him, such a generous. Its one of humankind. So, if Mr. Luf can be so nice, why cant we? Cant we?

ketika kita terbiasa dengan segala kenyamanan, maka kita akan menjadi lumpuh ketika kita berhadapan dengan dunia yang sesungguhnya. Ga perlu ditanya itu quotes darimana ya…made by me, original tuh  Menyambung blogs drama part 1, masih terinspirasi banjir bandang Jakarta (diluar BODETABEK) Kali ini gwe mau nyorot banjir dari sisi para pelaku perusak lingkungan yang akhirnya mengakibatkan alam marah dan akhirnya membalas perlakuan semena2 itu kepada semua pihak termasuk yang tidak tahu menahu dan ngga berdosa.

Ini cerita klasik tapi ga pernah basi dibahas karena memang sedikit banyak jadi donatur tetap atas banjir yang sekarang terjadi.

Daerah resapan air berkurang. Jakarta yang seharusnya punya area resapan sebesar 40%, sekarang cuma punya 4%. Jadi ga usah nyalahin pihak mana2 dulu deh, koreksi diri sendiri dulu. Pemerintah esp PEMDA DKI musti bertanggung jawab atas hilangnya 36% area serapan air itu. Gwe bukan orang ahli tata kota, but sebagai orang awam juga bisa liat lah kekacauan pembangunan di Jakarta. Even tetep ga bisa dipungkiri bahwa banyak pihak yang terkait didalamnya termasuk masyarakat.

Selama ada permintaan, disana akan ada transaksi. Pembangunan Mal-mal dan pusat perbelanjaan berbentuk ITC dan yang sejenisnya terlalu gila-gilaan. Developer berorientasi bisnis tapi kurang pake hati nurani dan akal sehat. Bisnis tanpa pertimbangan dan pengetahuan dampak lingkungan yang memadai, akhirnya ketika seharusnya air bisa mengalir ke tempat2 yang sudah ditentukan, malah terhambat dengan bangunan-bangunan besar yang baru dan bahkan belum selesai dibangun. Ujung2nya masyarakat sekitar yang harus menanggung akibatnya, sementara developer-developer itu ga jelas keberadaannya dimana, kalaupun ada, baru akan keluar setelah banjir surut, memberikan bantuan sebagai basa-basi permintaan maaf, dan membangun lagi. Sakit!

Gimana dengan area serapan air di daerah puncak? Hmm jangan ditanya, as we all know. Jumlah vila dan bangunan2 yang ga seharusnya berada disana udah ga terhitung, yang legal atau ilegal? Ada..tinggal pilih, peruntukan pribadi ataupun bisnis? Nyaris ga bisa dibedakan. Ga sedikit di antara vila2 itu dibangun atas nama pejabat-pejabat negara, ya iyalah…where would you think they will spend the holiday on the nearest area from jakarta? Semuanya pake ijin, sah atau nggak nya, God knows it for sure. Terlalu klise kalo ditanya, kenapa bisa? Harigini siapa yang ga butuh duit? Orang yang udah meninggal aja butuh duit untuk ngurus ini itu kok (eh keluarganya ya actually, but lets take it). So no wonder deh, its like a circle of hell, move around there, going nowhere and its for one reason, money.

Beberapa kali acara talkshow, tampang sutiyoso, orang yang paling bertanggung jawab atas pembangunan di jakarta ini keliatan pucet, ga gairah dan ga punya kekuatan lagi untuk ngebantah dan menjawab pertanyaan dengan argumen2 yang make sense.

We knew the answer of all questions, but sometimes we have no brave to answer it even for ourself. Its too hurt to be declare that most of us are a part of destruction, but most of us had no idea when the disaster’s come and blew up all the lives.

Proyek aliran banjir kanal timur, baru mencapai 20% dari seluruh proses pengerjaan yang udah dirancang, it means we must prepare for the next 5 years of flood. Its routine. Its silly, how come we can be so easy to predict the disaster but we have almost nothing to do to prevent, we are able to survive..yes we are a survival country. All of us are survivor..hee? are we?! Gwe pengen ketawa tiap kali denger kata-kata ‘5 tahun kedepan bisa kelelep abis nie jakarta’. Gila ya, kita bisa segitu optimisnya sama yang namanya musibah…menjadikan musibah sebagai suatu kegiatan rutin. Kasihan bener masyarakat kita.

Jakarta, the never sleep city (almost), ketika di kasih banjir…lumpuh langsung. Paralyzed. Perekonomian nyaris ambruk, kerugian sampe 4 trilyun lebih.. (kebayang ga kalo dibeliin combro, bisa dapet sampe pabrik oncomnya bwat 7 turunan ga abis? Hehe)

Kita lumpuh ketika Tuhan memerintahkan alam untuk ngasih sebagian kecil dari akibat perbuatan merusak kita, kita nangis dan memohon-mohon supaya semuanya berhenti, tapi kita ga pernah mau tahu ketika alam meronta minta kita untuk berhenti nebangin pohon di hutan2, bahkan kita belagak tuli waktu alam hanya sekedar minta kita untuk buang tissue atau bungkus permen di tempat sampah atau simpan dulu untuk sementara di kantong celana atau baju kita.

So, siapa yang lebih layak disebut mahluk yang berperasaan? Mahluk yang punya budi pekerti? Mahluk yang punya belas kasihan? Apa kita masih layak disebuh mahluk paling agung yang diciptakan Tuhan dijagad raya ini?

We are weak, so don’t act like we are the almighty one.

Note: ini Cuma renungan bwat diri sendiri, tapi kalau bisa berguna bwat yang lain, semoga bukan Cuma renungan sesaat terus surut bersama banjir. Amin.

akhirnya ngantor, setelah 3 hari diliburkan karena kantor terkepung banjir. ada rasa seneng karena dari kemaren ngebayangin kerjaan yang terus numpuk kalo terus2an libur, sedih karena gwe ga bisa panteng astro lagi kaya kemaren2..heheh. lumayan kenyang dengan film2 bagus

as usual, such a classic term God put a good things to learn in every difficult moment just like now.  Flood’s everywhere, 70% areas of jakarta are screwed up by this. All of us known that it culd be worst every minute, every hour, every day. The wheater is so unpredictable. Like today, after 1 day of sunshine blessing jakarta, rain’s fall in to our lovely city, again. We are definitely poor society if we cant take a lesson from it. Its just a beginning of rain season in February, we still have to face more than a half month.

For the first time i’ve joined to be the volunteer in the refugees camp on kampung melayu. That’s one of the most terrible areas of flood. Me and a couple friends decide to get a funds from our parents and relations, its great to know that people have a big good will to help each other. The funds, even not too big, but its never stop, flow like a water. (Alhamdulilah) then on Saturday afternoon, we went to there,… fiuhhh!! believe it or not, for a moment we cant breathe becaused of what we’ve seen. Such a terrible difficult moment at that time, we never been there before. the streets and village suddenly change into a lake, poor lake (we dont like to spell it as a flood, so we change the name to poor lake). No more houses, no more streets, no more families, no more smile. only a pale, panic and hope for any help. They are the people whos get used to with flood, its not for the 1st time, but still they had no idea, why it can be worst than before.

We try to help as much and as good as we can. Totally salute for the brave and struggle atmosfir that we can feel, they still put a big hope to survive. for three days there, so many lesson that unfortunately i cant write on it. too long to tell. shortly, as you know, we must and we have to thankfull to God for the food that we can eat today. thankfull for the air to breathe and no less for still having a dry clothes to wear. we have no reasons to complain if we cant go to the office today because of flood in the streets, or the rain that may not stop for all day long, for the cold that sumtimes makes us freezing (even not that bad..hehe such a hyperbolic).

3 days in the camp with other volunteers and army, nice to know that finally i can cook..heee..:)

the refugees…Almighty God gave them a brave to face the situation, i have a doubt that i have it, such a weak of mine. i may wuld be desperate. i know that im not that good enough to face this poor and difficult situation. May Allah take care of them, put them in the best place afterall disaster. amin ya robbal alamin.

Childrens, mothers, old people…they are not supposed to feel it. For any kind of reasons.

we all very sorry bout this disaster, we all pray that everything will be fine soon, we all hope that we can pass this together, and we all must do something to refuse it to be happen on the next 5 years or whatever.

Yes it is a 5years period, but it doesnt mean we gave up and do nuthin, rite? we must responsible for what we’ve done. its all because of us. more or less, we must realize that we cant let it happen again. DO SOMETHING. At least, do it for ourself, if we do mind that others would not do anything. Dont ever sweat the small things. cause a big thing became from so many little things.

May God take care of us.

kyaaa… jakarta, jumat, yang biasanya jadi hari yang paling menyenangkan karena awal wiken, suddenly berubah jadi jakarta lautan air hujan plus air kali.

rencana meeting KPI batal, rencana perpisahan di ciater juga batal, divisi gwe libur bur bur…tapi tetep ini terjebak di salah satu plant di sunter yang udah banjir dari pagi.

banjir yang bikin kakak gwe nyerah pas liat gelombang air di kodim tadi pagi, terdampar di posko tmmin 1 1/2 jam, naik truk delivery ke plant dan nyambung shuttle bus ke head office, nyampe kantor malah disuruh pulang…what?! ya iyalah, menurutlo?? secara perut laper merongrong minta makan, satu2 nya tempat terdekat dan terbersih untuk makan adalah stamping plant…haha jadilah gwe sampe jam segini masih disini

ngebayangin makan mie kari yang pedes, tidur dan tidur…

sementara diluar gwe liat air kok belum surut2 juga ya…padahal udah terang niey.. finally gwe baca novel yang baru kemaren gwe bli di bandung, makan pop mie, minum zestea, not to forget surfing di internet sambil harap2 cemas ntar sore dah surut d tuh banjir so semua orang yang masih terjebak di kantor bisa pulang, bisa istirahat, bisa tidur (nah ini yang penting deh). try to make it as nice as possible, seperti janji gwe kemaren (in case its not)

gwe blm tahu nie kabar temen2 gwe di pusat jakarta sana, lebih parah or mendingan dari gwe?? see? jakarta yang katanya kota metropolitan, kota yang nyaris ga pernah tidur (heh, itu bukannya New York?) dikasih hujan seharian begini langsung lumpuh puh puh, gimana mau maju nie negara? halah!!

kangen nie ma kasur, ma bantal, ma guling…hhuummm

have a nice weekend everybody

cheers,

linda

kemaren, gwe nomat lagi as usual ma ndut, my partner in crime :). Kita nonton ‘A good year’ by russel crowe. firstly, gwe pikir ini film romance yang bakal menyuguhkan kisah yang bikin gwe nangis bombay or just thinking about that im gonna feel it someday..hehe (ngarep.com)

but ternyata….film nya too simple, ga terlalu bagus (even yang main sekelas russel crowe) cuma karena berlatar belakang vila di perancis jadi kelihatan menarik. Ada unsur revenge atas nomat minggu lalu yang grabak-grubuk dan ga sempet beli snack, nomat kemaren, serasa mau piknik, dari awal film mulai kita sibuk dengan makanan masing-masing (believe it or not, gwe sampe bekel spaghetti dan menyantapnya langsung waktu lampu bioskop mati). kebayang kelar nonton, deretan bangku kita penuh dengan sampah makanan…gubrak!! (semoga ga ada orang yang ngeh bahwa di deretan itu cuma ada 2 orang ya ndut)

well, apapun jenis film yang gwe tonton, esp sama ndut…kita selalu bisa menemukan scene yang kita anggap lucu, konyol sampe kita ketawa ngakak (ndut, gwe ga bakal lupa ya itu tatapan orang2 pas kelar nonton…menatap kita dengan pandangan sinis karena berisik padahal filmnya house of wax).

so on with this life, gwe berharap, gwe pengen banget bisa melihat segala sesuatu dalam hidup ini (esp hal2 yang ribet) semata2 cuma jokes, ga lebih dari itu. Or at least bisa menemukan hal2 yang bisa bikin ketawa setelah segala hal serius di dalamnya.

Cause we all made mistake, we’re an actor of the world.

‘dunia ini panggung sandiwara, ceritanya mudah berubah…’

yes we are. jadi ga ada salahnya setelah kita memainkan peran serius, sinis, arogan, antagonis, protagonis, psycho sekalipun, kita bisa jadi pelawak, bisa jadi comedian. Comedian handal yang bisa mengocok perasaan dan perut kita sendiri minimal.

"Laughing yourself" alias menertawakan diri sendiri, nikmat banget tuh!! gwe sering melakukan hal itu, dan ya ampun…ternyata jauh lebih lucu ketimbang gwe nonton Tom and Jerry, or Mr.Bean, or serial Friends. Kita semua berbakat jadi pelawak!! so why dont we laugh ourself, before we laugh for anything else?

Hal yang paling sering bikin gwe ngetawain diri sendiri adalah saat gwe dalam keadaan terburu2, ga siap, dan akhirnya do sumthin silly yang hanya bisa dilakukan oleh orang yang otaknya lagi nge ‘hang’. Ibarat komputer, otak gwe suka nge hang kalo ngebuka banyak dokumen sekaligus, tanpa mau nutup dulu dokumen2 yang ga penting. Intinya gwe masih suka kurang fokus sama apa yang mau gwe lakuin.. POOR ME!! dan kalo dah gitu…gwe bisa bengong sekian detik sementara isi kepala gwe muter2 ga karuan.

Imajinasi gw juga parah, berlebihan kadang. Entah karena keseringan nonton film2 kartun, gwe jadi suka ngebayangin hal2 konyol yang pengen gwe lakuin sama orang yang bikin gwe kesel. that’s why sumtimes gwe suka ketawa sendiri secara tiba2, sementara situasi di sekeliling gwe bisa yang serius abis…(eh tapi gwe ga gila ya, semoga ga akan pernah, amin). Gwe ketawa karena diri sendiri, menertawakan diri sendiri sambil sedikit2 belajar mengubah kebodohan2 yang sering gwe lakuin itu..

heheheh and life is about folks

i love my self!!
