I'm kind of tired at all, I mean of crying; of trying; of waiting; of expecting that everything will be right yesterday but the reality is not.
But this month, I got the lessons. People will not always go with their commandments, the one who have the "position" might be wobbly to stand on their own; for some reason.. they might try to take a little more benefits by degrading their principle. It was sad, but it happened to me for several times. And, it was reaaaaally hurt. For sure.
Even I got upset to several relatives who made it funny. Waiting for 5 weeks were being successfully made me loose 5.5 kg dude. Lucky you guys. Please, stop joking for this.
Now, I'm praying to take the grant as the substitution, maybe I would have any job earlier or easier. I believe that everything with hard works & patience would be more beautiful at the end.
Bye.
Since been so long not post anything, I'm going to publish something thru this personal —but publicly announced— page. Not a thesis defense's appreciation post because it still needs more patience to face a cruelly undescribable person.
That day was being one of memorandum which maybe will bring smiles a lil longer than ever. Decided to go to Semasa Market, one week before the event, yet since I am a person who love surprises we insisted to go to The Museum of Bank of Indonesia first, then moved to the first plan. Sadly, accompanied by my maag along the walking tour.
Experienced to the most joyful place of mine to meditate over anything that happened recently, took some goods, ate a scoop of ice cream, tasted bakeries, amazed by analog cams, learnt about history, had afternoon talks about what the future holds at the station. Def, this is what Honne says that "I never knew that this could feel so good". Here some pics.

Dear self, please stop making an excuse. Believe that somebody who are kind will find their way back.
What an end, should be an end.
Just in case you are forgetting how precious you are, remember that you have through those problems only by yourself.
We thought moments we have created are limitless, but the fact it aint
We thought the space we have made are meaningful, but the truth it aint
We talked deeply about anything, still we felt empty though
We thought a lot of things each day, yet we forgot how to keep ourselves —of expectations;
It killed.

Let it be our alarms to keep doing everything well. That ain't supposed to be posted, but since it is on the top draft of this page, so let it be.
How's life?
Mine is good as long as keep progressing on something. Ye you know lah what 'something' means. These few months become the hardest time of mine, ga jarang gue ngilang dari orang banyak.. God, it's good to be not surrounded by people. Gue nangis sejadi-jadinya sampe pusing terus tidur. Gatau faedahnya apa, but it really helped me to soothe my scrambled-thoughts-and-feelings. Sampai gue buka handphone terus ga ngerti gimana ceritanya ada post orang tentang surat Al-Insyirah.. gue jadi nangis makin kejer (sebenernya gue lagi puasa saat itu, tapi.. everything was overwhelming at that time. Semoga tetap diterima puasanya). Reckless banget, pas nyadar "Indeed, with hardship will be ease" that repeated twice. God slapped me with His sweetest way. Gue baca surat itu berkali-kali sampai ketiduran lagi. Seriously, it's a moment where all of the sadness turned away. Bangun-bangun shalat, mandi langsung normal lagi. Dan biasa, jadi "ih apasih fu lemah bener" ke diri sendiri. Sedih gitu tiap shalat atau tadarus kan baca surat itu, tapi ga pernah nyadar maksudnya yang super-duper dalam. wk.
Udah ya bye-bye. Ntaran mau nulis tentang ambil data, penelitian, my very first solo trip to an exhibition, bukber-bukber pas makalah dan skripsi udah final. Selamat ngejar gelar dan Lailatul Qadr!
“Kok jarang cerita sih sekarang?”
“Cerita aja, setidaknya relieves stress”
Just because I don’t tell you any story, it doesn’t mean that I have no story. Ada. Buanyak. I don’t even know am I introvert or extrovert, somehow I love being alone and much more productive when I do everything by myself, but somehow I can’t deny that meeting someone who smart and kind or maybe humorous is the way for me to be more productive (aka spur my spirits on doing something) too. Back to the first question of this post because I don’t need solutions of this kinda thing, thus I don’t have any urge to tell the story.
Ga gitu. Buat gue. Gue lebih senang cerita dengan orang yang ga gue kenal ya karena peduli setan ga kenal, abis itu dia ga bantuin gue ga masalah, dia bakal lupa dan yaudah. Itu stress relief. Atau gue cerita ke diri sendiri dan ditulis, kayak gini. Gue ga bakal punya tuntutan untuk terus cerita, ga perlu takut nantinya kalau tiba-tiba gue ditinggal. I mean everything is temporary, I don’t know am I still alive tomorrow or 5 seconds after this post is published. I don’t know are you curious about my story or backstab, or you really care about me. I don’t know. Is it better to make any space, tho? Everything that you hold tightly will only make you sick. Really.
Gue masih manusia normal kok yang kadang kalo nemu hal lucu atau amazing, gue ceritain ke orang. Certain person. I always make my stories as a puzzle, I tell to A about what I did; tell to B about what I got; tell to C about what I watched. I should make my circle smaller than ever to make me happy, perhaps. As I am getting older, I realize that I can’t make everyone in all of my circle are happy with what I do, of my presence. The thing that is also important, but I always forgot was about my happiness –comfort, when I was surrounding myself with all of them. I can’t lie to myself anymore. I am going to be 22 this year (ya. penting.) and have to be wiser on making decisions and decreasing foolishness.
Well, bye-bye.
