Anak

Well, everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody cries, and everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes, so hold on, hold on
-REM-

Lagi matching aja ama lagu ini, huahahahaha *tawa ironis*

Kemaren jalan2 ke Gading, dan untuk pertama kalinya gue freak out di jalan...Sungguh berat untuk diceritakan, jadi ya sudahlah...

Btw, beberapa hari ini gue nge-list things-to-do-when-you-become-a-parent, and here are the nominees:
  • Jangan ngasi nama anak Anda dengan sesuatu yg mengandung huruf V dan Z, incase anak anda bergaul dengan 'anak2 yg kurang berpendidikan' sehingga kalo namanya david bisa jadi dapit, vivi bisa jadi pipi, atau zoni bisa jadi joni? =D

  • Berilah nama anak Anda sesuatu yg inisial namanya ada di tengah-tengah, jadi kalo diabsen di sekolahan dia ngga begitu menderita suka dipanggil duluan ama gurunya

  • Jangan beri nama benda pada anak Anda, seperti: Bulan, Bintang, Matahari, Angin, Meja, Kursi, dsb, kasian mereka...

  • Jangan pula beri nama yang kebagusan buat anak Anda, nanti dia bisa keberatan nama =P pilihlah nama yang unik namun 'sangat-Anda-sekali', seperti yg dianjurkan oleh seorang oknum, bila wanita berilah nama Wanita Mulia atau bila pria berilah nama Pria Perkasa, tapi ini contoh loh...

  • Jangan suka membohongi dan memanipulasi pikiran anak kecil

  • Jangan belikan PS2 atau sejenisnya sampai ia kuliah

  • Anjurkan anak Anda untuk kursus minimal 2 bahasa asing, believe me...anak Anda akan sukses kalo dia udah gede...

  • Jangan suka merampas uang anak Anda bila kebetulan dikasih ama tamu

  • Menikahlah dengan bule, sebab sejelek-jeleknya si bule dan Anda, anak Anda akan mewarisi gen terbaik dari sifat turunan Anda berdua, jadinya setidak-tidaknya sih dia bisa jadi model kalo udah gede...

  • Jangan suka membanding-bandingkan anak Anda dengan anak orang lain, ingat...anak orang lain itu bukan anak Anda, kalo mau mah adopsi aja tuh anak orang lain itu...

    Ayam Suwe

    A couple of months ago (seemed seriously like YEARS ago), I was involved in an engagement, nope, not the one prior to any wedding ( I wishhhh! ), but a project engagement. The time period was typically short, one month and extended into another month. But hell if that was the first time (in a really long time) I felt like jumping out of my 35th floor office cubicle.. not to the ground, mind you, but rather jumping into an embrace of a gentleman ( halahhh ). Yeah, anyway, in this so called time-period of the project, semangat nasionalisme gw sangat membara dan I ended up staying at office real late, mostly at 11 PM, but it is not rare that I went home nearing dawn ( okeh, lebay ). It's all up to my wallet situation, really. When me having no shit, I insisted to go home at 11 PM since it was the last train to catch up. Standard conversation with the cab driver Supir: Malem, Mba. Mau dianter ke mana? Gw: Malem, Pak. Ke stasiun Sudirman ya. Supir: Loh? Malem-malem gini masih ada

    I missed traveling bad. It's been 1.5 years without traveling and sightseeing to new places I've never been to. My furthest spot was Bandung and even that brought so many nostalgic feelings, like when I attended work-related meetings, or when my team had a short getaway trip, or my past dating venues. Sigh. I wish this blasted pandemic get over soon, and everyone treat Covid19 as meh as any other influenza variants. Just rest in bed, drink Vitamin C, pop some pills and you'll be alright. No ICU, no breathing trouble, no damaging internal organs. I mean, who knew right? Who knew we can go to Banks or supermarket wearing any type of masks and not get arrested or even eyed suspiciously.  I have some progress over life, well, not sure if I can really call it a progress. I have been dating my SO for quite a while, had some turbulences, undergoing some 'oh-i-didn't-know-that' moments, doing that marry-or-not-to-marry type of dance, had some fights, major apologies and

    Years we have had

    There are always those little bit of moments that reminded us that life is sweet. Like a couple of days ago, colleague of mine asked about some Sentinel stuff, and someone responded swiftly because he just went through the exact same thing. When I teased him about it, since he ended up not going with the client he's checking the Sentinel with, he said, "This is why I believe everything in life happens for a reason." It made me stopped, and smile, and felt that little reminder that yeah life mysteriously works that way.  Yesterday, I watched a movie called All The Bright Places, starred Elle Fanning. I watched her YT video on Variety channel -Actor on Actor- with Jenna Ortega and I was impressed by how she carries herself throughout the talk, so young yet so mature. Jenna Ortega also did the same, with more vulnerable emotions displayed and I can totally feel her. But "Wednesday" is already my favorite Netflix series, so I've seen Jenna. But Elle Fanning? Hav
