Us in a Nutshell

Us in a Nutshell
And I began to brood, whose fault it was. Me, for being such a ingenue, or you, for pretending over anything. I could call it sweet. Running through the basketball court at night which had weird redolent; breaking some school rules only to be joyful. One night we laid on the grass, watching the fireworks that we set on a dark sky. The other night we spent whole day at the park's benches and laughed so hard on our friend's lame jokes. We would out...

Jadi Muslim yang Baik

Jadi Muslim yang Baik
Makin kesini, makin besar, saya jadi suka mikir. Apa yang kita cari dalam hidup? Apa tujuan kita hidup? Sampai saat ini jawaban saya satu, sih, bisa berguna buat orang banyak. Kalau belum bisa berguna buat orang, seenggaknya jangan menyusahkan orang lain. Pasti tahu akhir-akhir ini di Indonesia banyak kejadian nggak menyenangkan yang menyangkut paut agama, dan politik. Dulu saya termasuk dalam golongan netral yang bahkan cenderung tidak peduli....

Random Thoughts on Rain
Raining in Mainz, Germany, Jan 2015 I don't really like rain. How it causes the blue sky turns into grey, making people sad. It often makes people curse on their motorcycle seats, those who forgot to bring their rain coats. I don't like it also when rain ruins my favorite shoes, or my favorite clothes. Making them look and smell so bad. Maybe I've changed, because I used to like it so much. I still remember how happy I was, laughing on the back...

Ibu Awet Muda

Ibu Awet Muda
Ibu, 32 tahun (17 tahun yang lalu).  Perempuan tangguh paling cantik di dunia, dan saya beruntung memanggilnya 'Ibu'. Darinya saya belajar banyak. Bagaimana caranya ikhlas memaafkan orang lain yang telah menyakiti hati. Bagaimana bisa sabar menghadapi cobaan demi cobaan yang seharusnya bukan menjadi tanggungjawab beliau. Entah sudah berapa banyak tetes air mata dan aduan beliau kepada Allah tentang betapa kejamnya dunia mengukir hidupnya....

WHAT TO DO: Ketika Dompet Hilang

WHAT TO DO: Ketika Dompet Hilang
Kehilangan dompet merupakan sebuah peristiwa yang tidak diinginkan oleh siapapun. Bukan masalah uang tunai yang ada di dalamnya. Tapi kartu-kartu dan surat pentingnya itu, loh. Juga isi berharga yang lain. Teman saya, Sara berkata "It's never about the money. It's about the memories. The nicest pictures you kept in there, the coins from the other part of the world from your friends, or the wallet itself."  Saya pernah kehilangan dompet satu...

She is Too Afraid

She is Too Afraid
She is too afraid to shout her thoughts out. too afraid of crowded places. of strange faces. She is just too afraid. She is too afraid to talk about her deepest secrets. too afraid of dark. of empty boxes which are fulled of dust. She is just too afraid. People says big girls don't cry. but girls are human too. each is given a pair of Tränendrüse. each needs to put her head down to the ground. 34 times a day. ...

Ngobrol

Ngobrol
Saya suka sekali ngobrol. Bertukar pikiran, pendapat, dan sudut pandang akan penyelesaian suatu masalah, atau setidaknya opini mengenai sebuah fenomena. Jarang sekali bisa saya temukan teman ngobrol yang asik dan tahu banyak. Mungkin kebanyakan memang sukanya ngobrolin tentang gosip atau make up. It’s fun sometimes, but it gets me boring easily. Ngobrol disini maksud saya adalah beneran ngobrol. Tentang berita yang lagi hits, perang...

Having a Life-Changing Experience in Serbia
Serbia, Eropa Timur. Kalemegdan Fortress, my most favorite place in Belgrade source: travelinos.com Tidak pernah sebelumnya aku menyangka akan menginjakkan kaki di tanah bekas pusat kejayaan negara raksasa yang megah, Yugoslavia. Aku mengenal Serbia sekitar tahun 2010 saat tanpa sengaja aku bertemu dengan gadis hebatnya. Namanya Lejla Hamzić dan aku hanya mengenalnya melalui media sosial. Kami bertukar cerita, mimpi, dan keluarga. Sejak...
