SIA - SIA karya: Chairil Anwar Penghabisan kali itu kau datang Membawaku kembang berkarang Mawar merah dan melati putih Darah dan Suci Kau tebarkan depanku Serta pandang yang memastikan: untukmu. Lalu kita sama termangu Saling bertanya: apakah ini? Cinta? Kita berdua tak mengerti Sehari kita bersama. Tak hampir- menghampiri Ah! Hatiku yang tak mau memberi Mampus kau dikoyak-koyak sepi. Februari 1943 -------------------------------------------------------- " We live alone, we die alone. Everything else is just an illusion . It used to keep me up at night. We all die alone. So, why am I supposed to spend my life working, sweating, struggling? For an illusion? Because no amount of friends, no girl, no assignments about conjugating the pluperfect or determining the square root of the hypotenuse is gonna help me avoid my fate. I have better things to do with my time. " - George Zinavoy (The Art of Getting By)  "Semuanya palsu di dunia ini, tanpa harus menjadi jahat...

Halo. Kembali di blog ini. Kali ini gue ingin me-review buku yang baru kemarin selesai gue baca: RECTOVERSO karya Dewi Lestari. Entah kenapa, gue kurang suka dengan seri Supernova-nya. Gue justru lebih suka buku-bukunya yang kumpulan cerpen; Filosofi Kopi, Madre, dan Rectoverso. Jadi, Rectoverso ini berisi 11 cerita pendek dan 11 lagu karya Dewi Lestari. Seperti judulnya Rectoverso: Sentuh Hati Dari Dua Sisi, sambil baca buku ini ada baiknya juga kita denger musik-musik dari Dee. Salah satu lagunya yang populer adalah Malaikat Juga Tahu. Dari genre bukunya, ga begitu jauh beda dengan buku-bukunya yang lain. Dan seperti biasa, buku Dewi Lestari selalu berhasil buat gue menitikan air mata (baca: nangis). Ya, selalu. Ini review singkat beberapa cerpen pilihan gue yea. CURHAT BUAT SAHABAT Kadang orang berpikir terlalu jauh, apa sih yang bisa bikin pasangan kita bahagia? Di cerita ini membuktikan, kadang ternyata  keinginan pasangan agar dia bahagia itu tidaklah serumit y...

I'm losing the ones I love, the ones that promised me they'll stay when I need them, the ones that I used to know so much I thought that we were on the same skin, the ones whom once said will never be as far as they are right now.  I've always known this kind of day would stick around, that one day when I feel like I'm all alone and I just can't seem to bear anything on my own. Like I need attention, and I want everyone to feel sorry for me. I just probably need a gentle pat and a meaningful hug from everyone I know, as their sign of true apology and farewell. But everyone I know here are strangers, how can I feel you when I barely know you as a friend? I hate adapting . I hate adapting to replace such good memories of them in my head. I love meeting and falling in love with another person, but it feels bad. This is the part that I always hate:  changing . /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ...

HAI! Apa kabar? Baik semua? Good, good. I'm not in the mood today. Hari ini gue udah merasa sekarat di sekolah. 3 jam pelajaran matematika sukses gue lalui, walaupun dengan perjuangan hidup dan mati. I'm feeling sick and tomorrow I have a Mandarin test. Speaking test. Hmmmmmmmm... I'm not going to school tomorrow :'( By the way, I wanna share this article. Taken from http://science.time.com -------------------------------------- How Climate Change and the Monsoons Affect India’s Blackouts India's blackouts have left nearly 700 million people without power. The unstable monsoons are adding to demand for electricity—and climate change could disrupt the summer rains even further. By Bryan Walsh | @bryanrwalsh | July 31, 2012 Blame it on the rain—at least partially. Northern India has been plagued by prolonged blackouts over the past few days that have left some 600 million people without regular power. The electrical grid has never covered the entire country— a...
