Peace. Out.

Pagi (2).

Wow! Just wow!

Well, actually not just wow, after almost a year I have nothing posted here I won’t let you guys mock me as a dormant-lazy-bear just because I can only say wow and have a bigger tummy. No. *besides, bears don’t say wow* :p

Okay, here we go. This post would have an almost identical title with my post exactly one year ago. Except it has a numerical index 2. Maybe I will make this an annual habit Every morning (Pagi, Indonesia) on the first of January I will make one post (that may represent the whole post of the year before hehe..). Enough said, now WHY wow? Because wow is now my favorite expression and in 2009 I express it quite often. Wow! *see?*

Last year on the first of January, I woke up early. So did I this morning, except I fell asleep right away after my prayer hehe.. I listen to the whole album of The Corrs right now, not just two-repeated songs over and over until my ears get bored. I have green beans soup (bubur kacang ijo, Indonesia) as breakfast (yet). And the best part is, I have Kopi-susu (coffee with milk) in my bed brought by Via instead of having it in a warkop (coffee stall) like last year. And no, not yet, I only visit her parents home in Jember, I don’t live together with Via yet :p All in all, this morning is much better than last year, so is the post, it’s longer *wow*

So much things in 2009 that make me wow *wow*. Bad things, and good things. Luckily, the latter happens more. Almost all of my goals were achieved, and the rest WILL be achieved in a not-so-distant future. This year begins better, and I’m sure the whole year ahead will be better! *Amen!* SEMANGAT!!!

Peace. Out.

SEMANGAT!!!

Life is not getting any easier for me.

And it won’t be.

Sometimes it just pauses, temporarily. Sometimes it just runs or flies, too fast.

And yet, here I am, still challenging life, or sometimes death, boldly!

Baby, Here I Come!

I’m on my way to Jember. A fresh morning air, in Surabaya Gubeng Station has given me a new breath after one night journey from Bandung.

Five hours to go. Yatta!

Peace. Out.

Do You Dare?

I know. God balances the whole universe with His own unique way.

I know. He created black and white, as well as man and woman. Positive and negative. {Macs & PCs }. Even particle, has anti-particle.

I know, if we go Newtonian, using the same weight in both sides would result in a balanced equation.

Null.

Does that mean every balancing effort should/would result in a zero equation to satisfy the law? How can we apply the law to our life? Or even before we asked ourself such question, does the law itself applicable to life? If it does, then what is life? I always believed that life is not only a bunch of cells interconnected by neurons with physics, life is way more complicated and more valuable than just mere definitions.

Happiness and Sadness.

If the Newtonian is applicable to life, I don’t think life would even exist. To my believe, life is balanced. Well, at least that’s how I see life. One simple argument is that happiness and sadness would never be balanced using this equation, no matter how we weighted the variable. The fact is, happiness does exist as a counterpart of sadness, and the balance of life is not created by opposing those values face to face. My point is, I don’t think a balanced life could be reached by using Newtonian on happiness and sadness. A balanced life is not created by subtracting happiness by sadness. Because if that so, then life would be meaningless from the start.

Happiness and sadness will always be there, where it belongs. No matter how you chase happiness, sadness will eventually come too. So, what’s more important is how we manage to perceive both in creating a balanced life.

…

…

Do you dare, losing away all your happy feeling but losing your sad feeling at the same time?

*I stop. I’m losing my mood. Yet, I still have so many things in my mind, running here and there, unwritten*

**I’m sorry, I wrote this at work, a don’t-try-this-at-work material**

Peace. Out.

We Will Not Go Down (Song For Gaza)

Composed by Michael Heart | website

{download mp3}

A blinding flash of white light
Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight
People running for cover
Not knowing whether they’re dead or alive

They came with their tanks and their planes
With ravaging fiery flames
And nothing remains
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze

We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

Women and children alike
Murdered and massacred night after night
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
Debated on who’s wrong or right

But their powerless words were in vain
And the bombs fell down like acid rain
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze

We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

Peace. Out.

Pagi.

Wake up early. Çelik – Bu Kalp Seni Unutur Mu & Julian Cely ft. Terry – Tentang Kita. Kupat Sayur Padang. Kopi Susu @warkop. Ngobrol dengan kawan lama, first met in 2002.

Simply my morning. A quiet, enjoyable morning.

I have my BIG goals in 2009. And it begins deservedly well. SEMANGAT!!!

Update

Anyway, I won a new laptop because of this post: http://angga.gpratama.net/2008/08/augusts-digest/. And as usual, I’m simply too lazy to make a proper “post” about it. Just re-read the post, and you’ll know. The new laptop has become my primary machine now, directly replaced my old laptop

Peace. Out.

I Think I Have To Kill Some Time Because I Don’t Have My Laptop With Me Right Now

And it begins pretty well by typing the overly long title of this post above using my tiny mobile keypad, doh. And if you are just too curious about how I started my day, check my moblog.

So, where am I then? Good question. You know, some people said that a good question is a good question because it’s usually difficult to answer. But not with my case. (See, I’m doing good at killing time. Not only mine, but yours too.. :p). When I post this, I’m at citiwalk sudirman, Jakarta. Yeah I know, village kid coming to a big city. What am I doing here? (No, I won’t say that was a good question because I really don’t have to). Well generally, my being here is because I have to accompany my sister, she’s having a job test at a company here in Jakarta. It’s an all day test and I didn’t plan anything before about what am I gonna do this all day long, doh!

Long story short, I’ll do some window-shopping offline at jakartanotebook.com. I’m here already, and since I came too early, I thought having another breakfast won’t hurt at all.

Will update later, I have to stop typing at my tiny keypad before I develop CTS.

Peace. Out.

Indah Langit Senja, Segar Rintik Hujan Sore.

Aku iri kepada para penulis itu.

Ya, para penulis itu, mereka yang mampu merangkai kata dan rasa dengan indahnya. Mereka yang menulis tentang indahnya langit senja, segarnya rintik hujan di sore hari, harumnya bau tanah basah dan ilalang serta tenangnya batin mereka saat berada di hamparan pengharapan. Mereka yang sanggup mengurai indahnya warna kuning bunga matahari, mengulang rangkaian pelangi, menggapai birunya bintang di langit selatan dan hijaunya rumput di savana yang kuangan. Mereka yang menggambarkan eloknya suasana perbukitan, ngarai yang berkelok, lembutnya awan, dan kuatnya hembusan angin kehidupan.

Bahkan sepinya malam selalu menjadi inspirasi.

Kasih berpadu menjadi tema.

Cita-cita menjadi pembakar gerak jiwa.

Aku hanya terlarut nikmat dalam kisah dan karya mereka. Aku iri pada HAMKA, Chairil Anwar, Taufik Ismail. Aku iri pada ribuan penulis sebelum dan sesudah jaman mereka.

Simple Night

I love a simple night,
a night when the moon feels like in my grasp,
when the sky feels like only inches away,
when the air is calm and fresh,
when the grass is green and cold,
when my sighting is clear,
and my hearing is so quiet..

I love a simple night,
but I love your simple love more,
a love without reason,
and without too much flattering words..

I simply love you..
