This, wasn't It



"Kalo gitu nggak ada lagi yang perlu dibicarain."

Bengong. Asli. Kalo kata-kata bisa membunuh, mungin sekarang gue udah tinggal nama. Oke lebay... Mungkin paling banter sekarang gue cuma butuh transfursi darah. Oke tetep lebay. Intinya, kalimat yang terlontar dingin itu sukses bikin gue lemes, kuping panas, jantung minta lompat keluar, dan otak meronta. Gue bukan abis berantem sama cowok gue since I don't have one wakaka, atau berantem sama bokap nyokap. Yang abis gue lakuin adalah wawancara, seperti yang gue bilang di postingan sebelumnya.

Hari ini di mulai dengan baik. Sarapan oatmeal pake pisang, wearing my fave shirt, fave watch, fave bracelet, dan Speed of Sound muncul di radio pagi ini. Gue nunggu giliran selama dua jam lebih dengan kalem dan sedikit nervous. Tapi pas klimaks...wawancara selesai gitu aja setelah si pewawancara denger gue tanggal 25-28 liburan....

Gue tau gue cengeng, satu sekolah juga tau. Tapi udah lama gue nggak ngerasain sekecewa ini dan sepengen nangis itu, untung pas di ruang wawancara gue masih punya akal sehat dan nggak losing control ditempat.

Gue cinta sekali jurnalistik, jadi begitu malem itu dapet telpon dari kompas setelah lulus seleksi berkas Kompas MuDa, rasanya seneeeeng banget. Selain takitri, tulisan gue cuma pernah dipublish student globe, selebihnya nihil. Makanya kalo gue sukses magang bakal jadi catatan paling bagus di riwayat tulis menulis gue. Tapi apa mau dikata, jadwalnya bentrok sama gue liiburan ke Bali yang tiket sama hotelnya udah dibayar. Nyobain kerja di media cetak nomer satu di Indonesia itu salah satu mimpi gue, and it was so closeee, sayangnya Allah berkata lain dan artinya garis takdirnya nggak ketemu disitu. Sedih sekali. Gue suer dah pengen bangetbangetbanget.

Habis liburan langsung kelas 3, berarti liburan ini bener-bener kesempatan terakhir gue magang di kompas. Aduh...mana takitri udah lengser cuma boleh nulis cerpen sekali lagi :( Ternyata nggak ada ending bombastis di kehidupan jurnalistik SMA gue.... hhhh *menghela napas* I've never been bright in my highschool life, gue kira ini bisa jadi salah satu momennya biarpun nggak seberapa, sayangnya ngga haha I'll always be that big loser.

Hope to find that so called silver lining in this cloudy earthly event, God knows best ;) And I really wish that there's an open door for me that would lead me to my dreams, amen.

UTS Special: Comforting Sounds Mixtape

Besok uts PRD dan sempet-sempetnya posting ginian meheheh gara-gara udah cabut demi belajar prd+mat tadi siang supaya malemnya bisa hearing, terus hearingnya di cancel *ba dum tss*. So let's just make it quick, and these are the list of songs you wish to hear in this most hectic period of the semester, enjoy! Happy (Pharrell Williams) Sulit untuk nggak senyum atau minimal nodding your head setiap kali denger lagu ini, yang selalu ngingetin kita untuk merasa senang ditambah campaign 24hoursofhappiness.com yang uber-awesome! Clap along if you know what happiness is to you :):) Með Suð Í Eyrum (Sigur Ros) Biarpun Sigur Ros udah ngeluarin dua album setelah album ini (yang bau-bau dark semua emang), sampai kapan pun lagu ini dan Gobbledigook bakal selalu jadi Sigur Ros' most cheerful songs. This song will always be your ice cream under the too shiny sun. This Too Shall Pass (OK Go) Pertemuan gue dengan lagu ini adalah waktu lagi ke mcd hampir tengah malem setelah ha...

Is this it?

Have you ever did a real bad thing in your life and live with a constant guilt afterwards, that you thought every single bad thing that keeps happening to you is just the way of universe punishing you -and that you deserve every tiny part of the pain? I can't really recall when was the first time I start living with this horrible mindset weighing me, but it does took me months of repetitive small unnecessary breakdowns to finally losing it last night and cry the shit out over The Strokes' Is This It -alone in my hotel room, thinking I am so done with universe punishing me and shit. I snapped last night and when I was finally too tired to continue crying, I thought to myself that maybe universe was actually never that evil, maybe I did this to myself, maybe the things that break me are just a product of my own belief -believing that I need to suffer from every cosmic surprise that went south from my own expectation and immediately perceiving it as another form of life punishme...
