One Day Baking with Mom

What a nice Friday!

   That's what I screamed on my twitter account. Yeah, it was nice. I did baking with my mum. Actually, we just tried to make donut. My mum never made it before. So, we baked with the principle of trials. We were ready for a bad result.

   First, we prepared all of the ingredients: flour, eggs, fermipan, mashed potatoes, etc. Then, we mixed all the ingredients into a big dough. It's so different between baking a cake and baking a donut. You have to hurtle the donut dough, and before you hurtle it, you should add flour to make it more solid. And that what we did, but a trouble thing happened.

   My auntie said that we just needed a quarter kilograms of flour. But the fact, we used almost a half kilograms of flour! The dough was not too solid and to made it more solid, we needed to add more flour on it. Well, it was our hard decision because we were afraid that the dough would be too solid, and it would make the donut more tasteless. Yeah, well.

   Lalala~

   After we guessed it was solid enough, we had to let the dough swelled. To spend the empty time, my mum asked me to accompany her to buy some fertilizer for her orchids. She said her orchids are gonna die. Oh well.

   Lalala~

   A following hour ...

   The dough swelled! OMG. My mum and I were so happy happy happyyy, made us wanna dance...dance...dance...! Ha ha ha. (So sorry if it's too much.)

   We were so afraid that the dough couldn't swell as well. But it wasn't proofed! It swelled and sooo big! Then my mum hurtled it again before we shaped it. After that, we shaped it into a small dough. And we had to wait for it to swell again.

   A quarter hour later...

   We fried it all! And after the first turn had fried, we both tried one piece. We added  soft sugar on it. And the taste....

GREAT! A BIT TASTELESS!

Yeah yeah yeah. That what we call with STRUGGLE! Ha ha ha. We can't be better if we are not failed. Yeah, it's an experience. So, who wanna try it??? :D

Here it is the donut! Although it's a bit tasteless but we both like it! Ha ha ha.

My Quotes Part 1

This is some of my favourite quotes. I promised to show you some of my quotes. Mostly I got it from twitter. And I really like it because mostly match with my feeling, and it's all almost my love feelings. He he he. Enjoy reading!

Why we should we cry for them who wanna leave us?actually,we can find new again,but it's not easy to do it

If cry is good for my health,i'll cry for a long time,thats all because of you

You can't take my past,it's still precious for me,the memories will always live in my heart

i'm living in fantasy world where happy ending really do exist,girl n boy do end up together

Dear teacher,dont think that you're a hero,then you can do everything with me!

music is my life,its a reflection of what i go through

But i'm so touch by your sweetness

It's so hard to erase the pain,so hard to find back my way &make my mind let go of love, just so hard to see the real you 

 Being able to survive it doesn't make it ok. My mind can erase every detail but my heart will always remember that day.

Everybody could laugh without knowing my pain deep inside my heart 

There is one point when your love and hate feel at the same time. That point is when you miss someone.

Be thankful that you have what everyone don't have

Love is an indescribable thing. You can feel it, touch it, smell it, hear it, taste it. But no words can tell its story.

I remember every word which you told to me. I just can't stop thinking about it.

It is starting to scare me. How much I miss you but you don't seem to care.

It's so hard to show everyone that I'm fine, I'm alright without you when deep inside I'm really not.

Sometimes the real true friend is the one who most understand you and care bout you 

You will never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice. 

Trust you is so hard. I need a long time for it. So please don't break it.

I wish i'm still a lil kid who don't know what is love

Tears turn become a smile when you hold my hand,say 'everything is OK'

Hey,i don't believe that you make me smile n wash away my tears 

Its a sweet love story ever I had,but I wake up,and shit..it's just a dream.

The one who can make you smile is the one who understand you a lot 

The more you have birthday,the more you have a long life,dude

I memorize everything about you

Never above,never below,because i'll always beside you

Its funny how someone you love want to make you smile by doing silly things.

The best day is when youre going to spend all the day with someone you love

If in the first time you meet someone,then you fall in love,that's not love..and it wont last long

1 smile means many problems that you hide it

You do it today because today is tommorow's yesterday

I have a hundred different faces,a million different personalities

This time is so beautiful,, but more beautiful,if you here,with me,spend this beautiful night 

Staring at my phone,hope you will call me or text me 

Don't say that you heart me if you make me cry all the time

The gentle one will make woman feels comfort

Try to trust your couple whatever the condition

Be nice and smile to everyone you meet. You don’t know what they are going through, and they may need that smile.

The only thing that makes it a part of your life is if you always keep thinking about it.

the morning breeze swept my face , letting go of all my pain and sadness

When there are "TRUST" feeling , "RESPECT" feeling, "LOYALITY",, there is a "LOVE"

I have did my best to you.. And you can't receive my love.. And you said,you want to leave me ?? Okay !

Just one advice for you. If you already have boyfriend/girlfriend,don't forget to you friends

The best things in life are unseen, that's why we close our eyes when we kiss, cry, dream and die

If you love me, you wouldn't be doing this to me, so it's kinda hard for me to believe you actually love me.

Many men came into my life but none of them reach my heart, you're the only one who made it.

You were just a beautiful mistake that I would make again and again and again as long as I could

If a guy really likes you, even loves you. He'll listen to what you have to say, not what he hears from others.

The truth is I don’t hate you. I can never hate you. I guess I just want to find reasons to not like you anymore.

What’s the point of all the tears when nothing’s gonna change after you’ve shed them?

There's things that I could not tell you; things that remind me of you when I want nothing more than to forget.

When life gives you a hundred reasons to cry, show life that you have a thousand reasons to smile. 

I believe that one day you will love me like I do

Please believe me, what ever you did to me on the past, I'm sure you will get the karma!

PAST is a Lesson to make us better at the FUTURE

It's easy to make a friendship ends become a love. But not that easy to make a love ends become a friendship.

hidup itu tidak lebih dari sekedar pilihan untuk jadi yang lebih baik atau yang lebih buruk 

when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth

i wouldn't know the motives for a person killing a person but as far as helping a person is concerned , why should there be a logical mind ?

bukan yang kuat yang menang . tapi yang menanglah yang kuat .

orang yang bisa membuat kegagalan hanyalah orang yang memiliki keberanian untuk melakukan usaha .

as SWIFT as WIND . as FIERCE as FIRE . as SILENT as FOREST . as IMMOVABLE as MOUNTAIN .

Hatinya gentar membayangkan bahwa segalanya pun bisa berakhir di sini.

Saya lebih senang kalau kamu nggak nyadar. Kamu bisa jadi diri sendiri, saya juga. Dan menurut saya itulah yang paling menyenangkan dari pertemuan kita selama ini.

Kini ia sudah kembali berdiri tegak. Namun, ia sadar, bintang yang sama tak akan pernah kembali untuk yang kedua kali.

Ikuti saja kata hati kamu. Ke mana pun itu. Hati tidak bisa berbohong.

Hati tidak pernah memilih. Hati dipilih. Karena ia selalu tahu kemana harus berlabuh.

Hati kamu mungkin memilihku, seperti juga hatiku slalu memilihmu. tapi hati bisa bertumbuh dan bertahan dengan pilihan lain. kadang begitu saja sudah cukup.

Dan bumi hanyalah sebutir debu di bawah telapak kaki kita

I'm so sorry if it's too many. I've collected it a long long time ago. And here I'll give you the source :

Well, gotta see you on next post. Hope I get an interesting topic to discuss.

My Love Story Part 1

   Sometimes I feel so awkward when I see my ex-boyfriends. Well, actually they weren't my boyfriend yet. I liked them, one of them is my first love. Just call them Troy and Chad (I made those name based on HSM characters. :P)

   TROY

   This guy is my first love. Well, I had loved him for 7 years and was ended on last October. I had admired him for a long time. My life felt like full of tears and longing. Yeah, it sucked. But I don't know how I could stand for a long time, stayed to fall in love although I didn't get what people say with The Happiness of Love. Nope, I didn't get it. Nevertheless, my heart couldn't be opened by another guy. I only felt yearned. Well, we were in different Junior High School. But finally I could end all my feelings because of 3rd and 4th people. He had a beautiful girlfriend and finally I had someone who could cure me from my troyisme, I called him Chad.

   CHAD

   

   I met him only a month before finally I liked him. I liked him because he could cure me from troyisme and he could make me laugh all the time. I used to wait for his jokes. He is so friendly, one who is easy to talk to. He's really like my brother, but my brother much funnier than him. We had been closed for a few weeks before finally he asked me to make him closer with one of my friend. Honestly that was a big knock for me. But I could stand and told myself to not give up. And I didn't give up until finally, I don't know why, he seemed he wants to take a distance from me. That's my biggest knock. Until now.

   Well, I've tried to forget what I used to feel in the past. I don't want to remember all of the memorizes I've ever had. It sucks, especially when I remember a nice memorize. I know I have to get up from my dreams, from my pasts. I have to look forward for my better life. There's still a lot of dreams I have to catch up soon, if I want to be successful. I don't wanna fall in a same place twice. That's why I have to forget it. Nope, I MUST forget it all! And I'll take a big effort to do that because it fells like like I across what my heart used to feel. And I always cry. God, please make me stronger.  :') .

   I know I'm stronger. I know I can face it, head it. I'm survive from love suffer. But sometimes I'm tempted to text one of my boyfriend. If he is Troy, I can stand. If Chad, I don't know I can stand or not. He is so confusing. He seems not like me anymore, but why he still wants to keep in touch with me? That's annoying me. But whatever it is, I have to close my love story part 1 and I shouldn't open it again and over again. Well, I have to build my love story part 2 soon. :-)

   Honestly, I found so many quotes of love. But I can't write it here right now because I have to select the best one. Maybe on next post. ;-)

   Whatever it is, I have to close my love story part 1 and keep smiling for my better life. I shouldn't be crying again and seemed sad or frustrate because of love. I still have a lot of friends that always give me support. Thousands kisses and hugs for you guys! xoxoxo . :-*

Let's Sing A Song!

   I'd really like to listen to songs which has the same meaning with my feelings at the time or songs which can amuse me for a while. Well, it's so fun actually and I always do it when I feel broken, bored, tired. My heart suddenly feel warm. Then, I will feel better. Music is such my medicine, helps me pass through my pain. But sometimes not all of the musics I listen to are match with my feeling on that time. However, mood still controls everything.


   On previous blog post I mentioned a song which inspired me to make that post (please read Studying Abroad post). Yeah, sometimes songs are inspiring, even in emergency situation. For example, I decided to use a song theme as my writing assessment, though finally it didn't have the same point at all. LOL . But seriously, sometimes you need a song to inspire you. With a song, you also can express what you wanna say but you can't say it in words. For me, a song is an escape from the tiring days. And if I listen to a song that has the same meaning with my feeling, I'll sing it loudly on my room. I don't really listen to what my mother say about my voice because I just want to express my feelings. And only with singing, I can express it, beside with writing.


   And here are some songs on my playlist and also must-listen songs for me, maybe some are your favourites too. Lol. Well, check it out :

• Who I am - Nick Jonas and The Administration
• State of Emergency - Nick Jonas and The Administration
• Stronger - Nick Jonas and The Administration
• Who Needs Shelter - Jason Mraz
• Life Is Wonderful - Jason Mraz
• Worldplay - Jason Mraz
• Geek In The Pink - Jason Mraz
• Did You Get My Message? - Jason Mraz
• Song For A Friend - Jason Mraz
• Make It Mine - Jason Mraz
• I'm Yours - Jason Mraz
• That Should Be Me - Justin Beiber
• T G I Friday - RAN
• Jadi Gila - RAN
• Bosan - RAN
• Ya Sudahlah - Bondan Prakoso
• Malam Biru - Sandhy Sandoro

But this list sometimes can be changed, once again depends on my feelings. From this list, a song I like the most is State Of Emergency. Well, it's so unique I think.

   And for you who wants to improve your English pronunciation, listen to music can help you. When you sing the English Song, indirectly you say its words in English, right? Well, use that chance to improve your pronunciation! First, you need to listen how the singer say the words on the lyrics. Then, practice it while you sing. But you have to practice it continuously, so that you can accustomed with it. It's so easy!

   Well, do you have any favourite songs from my playlist? For Jason Mraz's songs, sometime I insert all of Jason Mraz's songs on my playlist. His songs are so different and I don't get bored with them. Mostly, if I feel broken, I'll play them on my playlist.


   And have you ever thought how the world is if there's no music? Boring? Of course! For me music is colour of my life. I never stand to not listen to music unless I need serenity to do something. But music sometimes can refresh my brain, fills it with different ideas.


   So, fill your days by listen to musics. Bring it into your life! :D

Studying Abroad

Sometimes something so right can be wrong...

Well...

   It's been a week since I started playing Nick & The Administration on my playlist. Well, these songs are the best after Jason Mraz's. My favourite one is Who I Am. If you don't know this one, you should buy the original CD or download it on internet, then play it on your room!

   And every I listen to this song, I feel so warm cause mostly it reflects to my personal experience. My love experience. And it becomes higher when I listen to State of Emergency. One more must listen item for you all! :D

   Well...

   I cannot tell you more about my love story. My LOVE STORY part 1. It's done! One with very happy ending, after had a double date on September 27, 2009, and another with very bad ending. Exactly ended on March 10, 2010. Okay. Perfect!

   Nope, I'm not going to tell you about my love experience. I'm going to tell you about one  activity I've done for the last a week. Reading a book with very a interesting title, Studying Abroad. I found it on my school's library, lying desperately from other books. Ha ha. How poor it was! I was so interesting with the title (let me once again mention the title), STUDYING ABROAD. Well, only two words, but, you know, it's my biggest dream ever. Study in another side of this earth and try all the dishes there. He he. Well, I like culinary tour! That's why last time my mother made a comment for me about my weight. Yup, it's been increased. Ha ha.

   Other reasons? Well, I like sight-seeing. I like to try something new and a bit weird. And also I want make my parents proud, happy, and not disappointed. At least I want they feel proud that their only-daughter can go around the world. And I promise I'll bring them go around the world, if they want to. But first, I should do the best. I have to do the best, so that I can get the best!

   And after I read STUDYING ABROAD book, for some reasons I feel afraid of what I've decided. First thing that appeared in my mind is COST. Well, the number is not little and there are too much 0 behind the real numbers. Oh, well.

   When I read the first chapter of this book, my sigh was so deeeeep. Yes, it's all about the cost. After I counted all the cost that I need, It reaches more than Rp 500 milions each month. How great! My saving is never that much!

   But I know, there must be others way to reach the peak of the mountain, even if it's too hard. Yeah, positive thinking is always on!

   Then, the second thing is culture, language, manner. Well, it's too different for me. But I should try to understand them slowly. Especially for the language, I feel I'm not on maximum speed to be a native. Sometime I forget what I would say in English. Sometime I'm confused to arrange a right statement, even by typing like this. It needs a long time for me to correcting statement by statement. Ha ha ha. Well, finally I open my Pandora box. :p

About my language, I've been searching, browsing about TOEFL and IELTS tests. Also I've practised it. And I must confess that IELTS is much more difficult than TOEFL. But I realise that I have to improve my score of both tests. Then, I'll choose what the best university for me to continue my study to. Hope I can pass and wait for me Cambridge or Oxford !! :D

   Honestly, I really wanna continue my study directly after I graduate my High School. But I think it's a bit hard for me. But I know everything is possible. Now I just try to do the best. I also look for scholarship, but I haven't found it yet. Yup, there's still much time to do the best. The important thing is NOT TOO LATE TO DO SOMETHING TO BE THE BEST.

   Well, I think it's nothing if people around you doesn't support your dream, especially your parents. You need this one so much! By the way, my parents just sighed deeply when I told about my biggest dream. Of course they're worrying s much thing. First, my safety. La la laa~ that's all about common fear for parents. Yeah, I can understand about this one. Second, about the cost. If I continue my study abroad for undergraduate program, of course it costs so much and is also a big burden for them. Yeah, well. Does it mean I have to continue my undergraduate study in Indonesia, work, and then study abroad? Well, it's okay, but it would be better if I continue my undergraduate study there. "It's a hard decision, Kid!" my Mum said. Yeah, I pretty know, Mum!

   To to make my parents sure about my study-abroad-plan, then I showed them some my friend's picture in Europe. She travelled around Europe and uploaded her photos on facebook. Well, my parents looked so interested. Then, I said in the middle of the show, "When can I travel around Europe, ya?" Clap! You can guess what my parents' face. I'm sure this way can make my parents open their heart for me. Ha ha ha. What kinda girl am I? But if I don't use this way, my parent's wouldn't think twice about my study abroad. Well, it's kinda compulsion. I name it STATE OF EMERGENCY way! Ha ha ha ha. Oh, well. I think this way is really effective!

   Now about the country I would choose. First, I choose England. London is my destination. There, my options are University College London and Imperial College London. But both of them are college, not university. For university, I don't really know about universities in London. Then, my other options are Cambridge University and Oxford University. But both of them isn't in London as well. Okay. Hard decision! But let it flow. Whenever it is, it's okay lhaa. :D

   Second, USA. But I won't take any risks in Harvard. Yeah, I'm a bit pessimist there. Stanford or Yale or Princeton it's good enough. Too good I think. Ha ha ha. But Harvard? Too high standard for me! But it's pretty okay if I can study there, with scholarship of course. Ha ha ha.

   Well, we can summarize all of the topics that I've written on this blog. Higher dreams, higher struggle, higher effort, higher cost (ha ha), higher risk. I just wish my dreams come true and flow normally and easily just like what I expect. Amin amin amin. Don't stop dreaming cause dream makes you work as hard as you can and it make yours life's so colourful! Don't be afraid to catch up your indolence, don't wait until you're late and regret it all. Remember, regret isn't something fun! I've felt it before. Trust me, it's really not fun!

For brighter world,

Sixteen on Ten-oh-Three 2010

My Dear God,
Thanks for give me another day to breathe ...
Thanks for give me another opportunities to thankful to You ...
A lotta thanks for give me 

Duuh. Enggak terasa sekarang sudah enam belas tahun sejak saya dilahirkan. Berasa yang masih kecil saja. Eh, tidak tahunya udah tua juga, hahaha. Enam belas tahun. Ck ck ck. Beberapa hari yang lalu saya di-tag sebuah foto study tour ketika saya masih SD. Wow, tidak pernah menyangka saya dulu sekecil itu (dan seimut itu. haha). Ketika saya kelas 6 SD, saya masih berumur 11 tahun. Now, never I realized, I've throughed five years of my life. That's terribly short for me because I still wanna be a young girl. Hehe. But I realize the time cannot turn back or even move slow down. So, I have to thankful that I'm still given the opportunities to breathe freely by my only one GOD THE ALMIGHTY, Allah SWT. :D
Tahun ini mungkin saya tidak mengharapkan hadiah karena Allah sebenarnya telah memberikan saya hadiah paling spesial, yaitu umur yang lebih panjang (dan semoga tetap panjaaaa...ng ^^). Hadiah kedua yang paling spesial untuk saya yaitu kedatangan saudara-saudara sepupu saya yang berada jauuuh di Surabaya sana (karena saya orang Jember) ke hometown saya, Jember. Saudara-saudara saya (tepatnya mas-mas saya) untungnya mau datang ke kota kecil ini untuk bertemu dengan saya (biasanya saya yang mengunjungi mereka). Jujur, sebenarnya mereka beruntung karena dikangenin oleh saya. Ha ha ha. Saya memang tidak pernah puas bertemu dengan mereka. Foto terakhir kami saja sudah sekitar 8 tahun yang lalu. Ck ck ck. Karena kami berempat (saudara saya ada 3 cowok semua) cukup bisa dibilang narsis, kesempatan dua hari itu (Sabtu-Minggu) kami pergunakan sebaik-baiknya untuk berfoto-foto ria. Yey! Hal itu sudah cukup sebagai kado istimewa saya di ultah ke-16 ini. Thanks for your time, my brotha's! :D
Dan alhasil, pada tanggal 10 Maret 2010 kemarin, saya lebih banyak menghabiskan waktu di depan komputer untuk membalas wall teman-teman saya yang mengucapkan selamat. Thanks for my besties, Ellen Deviana Arisadi !! Dia jadi orang pertama yang mengucapkan selamat kepada saya, baik lewat sms maupun lewat wall akun facebook. Hmm, saya kok jadi tertarik untuk menceritakan sedikit apa yang terjadi pada tanggal itu ya? Okelah, saya akan bercerita sedikit dan semoga saya tidak kelepasan menulis sesuatu.


March 10th, 2010


Pagi hari, ketika saya membuka akun facebook mobile saya, saya dihujani wall yang diposting ke akun saya, mengucapkan 'Selamat Ulang Tahun', 'Happy Birthday', 'Happy Bornday' dan lain sebagainya. Bahkan ada pula yang menyusun characters membentuk seperti kue tart. Wow, I really like that one! :D
Dan seperti biasa saya berangkat ke sekolah, namun kali ini dengan hati lumayan girang. La la la~
Di sekolah .....
Untung saja teman-teman saya pada berbaik hati semua jadi saya tidak dikerjain. Ha ha ha. Thank you so much, Guys! You're the best! :D
Awalnya saya punya rencana untuk mengabadikan setiap jam, setiap keadaan dan situasi, dan setiap kejadian yang ada di hari itu. Namun karena suasana hati saya terlalu bagus saat itu, ide saya yang itu akhirnya menguap ke udara. La la la oh la la laa~
Semua itu, dan hari itu, sangat indah sampai akhirnya ada sebuah kecelakaan yang membuat saya sakit hati setengah mati. Part itu saya pre-memory saja.
Balik lagi ke hari ultah saya, ada hal-hal yang sangat saya sayangkan hari itu, diantaranya :

1. One of my brother promised me to show me his performance with guitar and sang "Sempurna" song. But it cancelled because my brother's guitar has broken.
2. Saya tidak mendapat satupun ucapan selamat dari mantan-mantan orang yang saya sukai maupun saya fan. (Ha ha ha. But I didn't really expect it)
3. Ada kejadian buruk siang hari. SAYA MELIHAT DAN BERTATAP LANGSUNG DENGAN SEBUAH PENAMPAKAN! Saya benar-benar frustasi siang itu (bahkan sampai malam harinya).
4. Ketika saya akan keluar membeli sebuah buku yang dijanjikan oleh Ibu saya sebagai hadiah ulang tahun, tiba-tiba saja di rumah saya mati lampu! WOW, nice.

Namun selebihnya saya bersyukur karena di hari itu tampaknya semua berjalan dengan lancar, sesuai dengan apa yang saya harapkan, kecuali 4 hal di atas tersebut yang bisa disebut kejadian tak teduga. Selain itu, saya benar-benar berterima kasih kepada salah satu demisioner MPK yang perannya saya gantikan karena sudah membelikan es krim sebagai kado ultah saya. Ha ha ha. Thank you so much Sista! :D

Sebenarnya saya masih mengharapkan adanya kado-kado lain yang berdatangan (Haduh ngarep). Tapi sudahlah. Dapat tidak dapat, the most important is I could meet with my beloved brothers! That's enough to represent all the presences!

Sebagai penutup posting ini, saya akan meng-attach salah satu foto saya bersama kakak-kakak saya yang tercinta.

ki-ka : me . mas Hendi . mas Bagas . mas Kharis (ooo... for them)

And also a lotta thanks for all my friends that sent me messages or walls! Thank yoouuu so much for you guys!

xoxoxo for you all !!

:D

Resolusi 2010 dan Ucapan Terima Kasih

Rasanya pembuatan resolusi tidak dilewatkan sebagian banyak orang di dunia. Well, it's like hopes and changes in a new year. Kata sebagian orang 'tidak afdol' rasanya jika kita tidak memberikan harapan-harapan kita untuk satu tahun mendatang. Tapi menurut saya, harapan itu tidak hanya dilakukan menjelang pergantian tahun seperti ini. Setiap haripun kita harus berharap, plus dengan berusaha. Namun, kali ini saya akan membuat semacam 'target' yang harus saya capai di tahun 2010, kebetulan angkanya ada angka favorit saya, '1o'.

What Colour Is Your Life ?????

I'm inspired by Samsung Corby at commercial break . The commercial is so cute, colorful, and unique, especially cause the actor and actress are my favorite one . Truly like it ! :D . You must watch it !

Satu kata ketika saya melihat iklan Samsung Corby. LUCU. Yang main juga aktris dan aktor favourite saya, Dian Sastro dan Nicholas Saputra. Iklannya unik, lain daripada yang lain. Lagunya juga imut. Bagi yang ingin men-download, saya siapkan linknya di bawah ini.

Paloma Faith-Technicolour

Tapi saya tidak sedang membahas tentang iklan Samsung Corby. Saya tertarik sekali dengan slogan yang diusung oleh iklan itu. What colour is your life? Rasanya begitu cocok dengan kehidupan anak muda jaman sekarang yang bisa dibilang moodian. Apa-apa tergantung suasana, mood. Dan saya yakin setiap orang mempunyai 'warna' kehidupan yang selalu berganti sesuai dengan suara hati masing-masing. Dan bagaimana dengan warnamu hari ini? Berikut ini adalah arti beberapa warna yang saya ketahui :

1. Biru, melambangkan ketenangan
   
2. Merah, melambangkan suatu kekuatan, nafsu, dan kemauan
3. Kuning, melambangkan kegembiraan, harapan, dan optimisme
4. Hijau, melambangkan kedamaian
5. Hitam, melambangkan kepenatan, ketakutan
6. Pink, melambangkan cinta dan kasih sayang
   

Silahkan pilih warnamu untuk hari ini. Tapi tidak berarti harus sama dengan ini. Semoga warna-warna ini dan warna-warna lainnya bisa membuat hidupmu semakin bewarna. KEEP YOUR SMILE, GUYS!! :D

Senyum Itu Indah ...

this is my picture after having a bad situation all day long ...

Saya sering mendengar keluhan teman-teman tentang having a bad situation. Saya sering gerah gara-gara hal ini. Saya sering berpikir, kenapa semua orang selalu pesimis untuk mencapai apapun yang mereka impikan. Dan saya akhirnya menemukan pertanyaan hati saya itu...

Hari itu dimulai dengan pelajaran olahraga. Saya begitu terkejut begitu mendengar materi olahraga hari itu yaitu rol depan. Yaps, saya paling anti sama yang namanya SENAM LANTAI. Jujur, saya bukanlah orang yang punya tulang yang sangat lentur. Dan benar saja, ketika percobaan, saya sama sekali tidak bisa 'membalikkan badan' karena badan saya begitu kaku. Maka oleh guru saya, saya di-diskualifikasi setelah akhirnya berusaha (baca : memaksakan) unuk bisa senam lantai. Masa bodoh saya dengan nilai praktek. Saya terheran-heran. Mengapa kurikulum pelajaran olahraga harus ada senam lantai. Dan setelah olahraga, tengkuk leher saya terasa begitu sakit untuk menoleh ke kanan-kiri dan ke atas-bawah. Selain itu, paha saya nyut-nyutan pula. Dan hari itu saya ingin sekali menangis karena kebanyakan teman saya bisa melakukannya. Sedangkan saya tidak bisa sama sekali. Saya sedih, takut tidak mendapat nilai. Tapi mau bagaimana lagi? Saya BENAR-BENAR tidak bisa melakukannya.

Selain 'sial' di pelajaran olahraga, saya juga merasa sial di pelajaran sosiologi. Hari itu saya ada ulangan sosiologi. Sebelumnya, saya memang tidak terlalu nyambung dengan pelajaran itu karena bahasa yang digunakan terlalu susah untuk dipahami oleh saya. Maka pada hari itu, saya hanya mengerjakan sebagian, dan sebagian lagi saya tanya teman-teman (pengakuan dosa mode : on). Selain itu, pada saat pelajaran ESP, saya mendapat nilai yang sangat buruk : 48. Memang teman-teman saya rata-rata mendapat nilai 50-an dan 40-an. Tapi kebanyakan teman-teman saya mendapat 50-an. Tentu saja saya sedikit syok karena nilai saya lumayan jeblok.

Ada lagi kejadian di saat saya dicuekin sama orang yang saya sukai. Wah, hari itu benar-benar hari keterpurukan saya. Dan dalam hati saya merasa sediiiih berkepanjangan. Sampai-sampai rasanya saya putus asa. Rasanya saya ingin menghilang. Tapi saya sadar. Saya sadar apa yang dikatakan guru olahraga saya, "Jika kamu tanam rasa 'bisa' kamu di dalam hatimu, maka tanpa kam sadari, hal itu langsung terekam dalam otakmu dan kamu bisa melakukannya. Yang penting, lepaskan semua pikiran." Dan saya tersadar oleh motto saya 'Tersenyumlah karena senyum itulah yang membuatmu bangkit'. Maka setelah sadar, saya berusaha tersenyum. Saya berusaha menertawai diri saya sendiri dan berkata 'Ahahaha. Ya ampuuun! Kamu kalo rol depan lucuu banget! Tapi kamu cuman enggak bisa rol depan aja kok! Kalo renang, kamuu jagonyaa!!' dan 'Halah, cuman satu pelajaran. Yang lain, semangat dong!'. Dan setelah itu, meskipun saya masih dalam keadaan bad, saya berangsur-angsur pulih. Saya mulai bersemangat untuk berusaha lebih baik. Dan pikiran saya bisa menjadi lebih positif. Nah, positive thinking itulah yang dibutuhkan untuk menjalani hari-hari kita. Jika kita mudah pesimis, tidak akan ada yang menakjubkan dari diri kita. Hidup kita juga akhirnya menjadi sangat datar, tidak ada tastenya. Dan saya pernah membaca dari salah satu majalah favorite saya bahwa jika kita cemberut, kita lebih banyak melakukan gerak otot di pipi kita yang mengakibatkan kita terlihat cepat tua. Sedangkan jika kita tersenyum, gerak otot yang kita gunakan hanya sedikit dan kita bakal terlihat lebih muda. Saya sudah membuktikan. Ketika saya mencoba tersenyum di depan cermin, saya terlihat begitu cantik. Begitu cerah, ceria. Dan ketika saya mencoba untuk cemberut, saya terlihat begitu menyeramkan, seperti tampang kakak-kakak posdis saya ketika saya MOS.

Dan saya menyimpulkan bahwa dengan senyum, pikiran kita bisa lebih positif dan apa yang kita harapkan insya Allah dapat berjalan dengan lancar. Meski anda tahu bahwa there is impossible, tapi jangan berhenti untuk berharap bahwa everything's possible to happen. Yapz, meski anda tahu dalam realisasinya anda tidak akan berhasil, tapi teruslah yakin bahwa semua itu MUNGKIN untuk terjadi jika kita berusaha.

Keep your smile for a better future.
Keep your smile for a better world.
Keep your smile for a better you.
happy smiling everyone !!
=D

How To Preparing UAN

saya nulis blog ini sesaat setelah pulang dari istighosah akbar di Masjid Al-Baitul Amien, Jember

Istighosah adalah salah satu cara agar kita bisa menghadapi UAN dan agar bisa lulus dengan sangat baik dengan nilai yang memuaskan dengan cara mendekatkan diri pada ALLAH SWT. Bagaimanapun juga, berusaha keras tanpa diselingi dengan tawakal adalah hal yang percuma. Karena hasil akhir UAN atapun ujian-ujian yang lain selalu berada di tangan ALLAH.

Sebenarnya banyak cara yang lain-lain untuk mempersiapkan diri menghadapi UAN. Istighosah salah satunya (seperti yang sudah dijelaskan). Dan yang kedua yaitu dan tentu saja BELAJAAARR!!! Kegiatan ini nggak bisa lepas dari yang namanya ujian apapun. Belajar adalah kegiatan yang utama dan nomor satu. Belajar untuk UAN juga nggak usah muluk-muluk. Karena banyak sekali pelajar yang belajar (lebih tepatnya mengulang) teori dari kelas satu. Actually, that thing is not necessery, guys. Cukup dengan menimbun soal-soal latihan menghadapi UAN--yang banyak sekali di toko buku terdekat anda--dan mengerjakannya. Nah, apabila kita tidak bisa mengerjakan beberapa soal, kita baru melihat di buku penunjang atau buku pelajaran. Khusus pelajaran Bahasa Indonesia, kita bisa bertanya pada guru yang bersangkutan atau teman yang ahli sastra. Dan pastikan soal-soal yang kita kerjakan punya kunci jawaban agar setelah kita mengerjakan, kita langsung bisa memastikan kebenaran jawaban yang kita jawab. Tapi kalau ragu jawaban kita benar atau salah, jangan langsung melihat kunci. Kita bisa bertanya pada teman. Saya yakin, kita akan semakin terbiasa menghadapi soal-soal.

Cara ketiga yaitu les tambahan. Sebenarnya hal ini nggak wajib. Tapi dalam les, kita bisa bertanya tentang soal-soal yang membingungkan atau kita bisa meminta dan mendapatkan soal-soal. Khusus pelajaran Matematika dan IPA atau pelajaran hapalan lainnya, mintalah rumus tercepat (untuk matematika) atau minta cara cepat menghapal.

Semoga ketiga cara tersebut bermanfaat bagi semuanya. Dan semoga semua bisa mengerjakan soal dengan lancar.
