No pressure?

Is it? You might say there's no pressure, but for me it's definitely so much pressure.....
I always say that this whole life, my whole life, everything I do in life is dedicated to you. It is glued in my mind that you're the ones to whom I dedicate my life. You are my highest priority. Making you smile, or just seeing you showing me your thumbs is something I would do anything for. They've proved their ability, their special ability. Trust me guys, I'm working on it.
And just so you know, I love you sooo much, more than I love anyone else even myself................

And the award for 'Miss Lebay' goes to......

Oh noooooooooo! Gue ngga lebay kooooook...... Semua berawal dari Puapala 35 yang menyematkan secara tak terlihat predikat 'Miss Lebay' itu ke gue. Gue ngga selebay yang kalian bayangkan ataupun yang mereka umbar2kan. Sueeeeeer deh. Dimana titik lebay nyaaaa? Gue hanya terlalu vokal dalam menyampaikan setiap pendapat gue yang akhirnya memunculkan kata-kata 'mau mati', 'parah', maupun 'sedunia'. Masa kalo gue lagi ngomong sampe orang2 bilang "Kalo Binar ngomong jangan terlalu percaya, dia kan 90% nya lebay." Heeeehhh enak sajaaaaaa!
Ayo teman-teman Puapala 35, jelaskanlah kepada orang2 awam di luar sana bahwa gue ngga selebay yang kalian umbar2kan hehehe iyaaaa kaaan? Hm tapi pun kalo pun emang iya, yaudah deh gapapa juga, gue jadi punya trademark deh (walaupun jelek) hahahaha

Pertentangan Masa Depan

Kayanya masa depan gue bener2 masih jadi pertentangan. Kenapa? Because I still insist on being a supermama diplomat. Emang sesusah itu kah yaaa? Bukan cuma itu, jangankan jadi seorang mama, bahkan banyak banget yang bilang gue bakal susah punya suami kalo gue tetep bersikeras pengen jadi diplomat. Wooooy hidup gue nih men! Emang ga bisa ya tetep kerja sebagai diplomat, tetep nikah, punya anak dan tetep deket sama anak2 nya? Waduuuuh jangan patahkan keinginan gue dong teman2, hahahaha pertentangan memang.

Another lesson

It feels like it's been ages to me being not connected to the unreal internet world. Don't ask why, because I can assure you that there are soooooooooo many reasons why.
Well, I thought I could use this holiday to read over my books, but again it was just my wish. I still had a lot to do even in holiday! ckckck
Anyway, I learn a lot from this looooong holiday. The most important thing I've just learnt is If you want something, don't hope too much; because if you do, the possibility of not getting what you want is bigger. I have no theory about this, I just know it. If you want something, just do what you can do to get it, but just don't hope too much, pray to Allah. Allah knows what's best.

RAFTING!

Yesterday was a real fun! Rafting went very well. After all those effort, it's worth it. Check out our rafting photos on Facebook, friends! I'm sure you will like and want to try to do rafting too :) Thanks to all Puapala 35 for making this event such a great fun. And thanks to the caang(s) for joining the rafting :)

I love you...

Little summary of the days

Great days! This 3days have been crazily fun! Ian's birthday, my adventure with puapala and quality time with my family.
Tomorrow will be another fun, especially for the puapala family. Cicatih river, here we go!
xoxo

Is it true?

YES! I hope it's true. I expect a lot from that one. And I hope what I heard from my friend is true. Pray for me guys, wish me luck!

Confession?

This morning I cried, not because I was sad. I cried because I realized how lucky I am in this big big world. I thank Allah for keeping myself healthy, normal, as good as I can expect. I just realized what I had done in the past 3 years. I always forgot (or sometimes was lazy) to do my pray. How awful. I hope now I'll have no disturbance to do my pray. Because I know that it is my duty as a human being in this temporary world to have a great great great joy after life.....

No time to read

I have no time to read. Well, it's true! I bought several books on July 2008 but 'till now I haven't got the time or chance to read it. These are the books I'm willing to read (because you know, I spent much time thinking about what books to buy and of course I spent my money which actually I need to save if I really want to have a spectacular vacation in the end of the term) :

1. Sixty Lights; I'm sure I'll like this book. Because I'm interested by the language it's using. Its language is hard to understand and need some thinking. And also I picked this book because it's about a girl growing up in the Victorian world.


2. What I Loved; I think it's a serious but witty novel. Its language is also interesting. I'm sure it'll dazzle us by its touching story about love, loss and betrayal.
   


3. A Bus Could Run You Over; well actually I don't really like reading teenlit novel. But I thought it wasn't a really teenlit novel. I bought it to refresh my mind by its jokes.

And there's one book which is bought by my sister 2 or 3 years ago. Its title is 'The Courtesans Daughter'. I love this book because I learnt a lot from this book. The most interesting of this book is the culture, because its story is about the turbulent society of ancient Greece which I had never known before.

Cool books! I hope I can have time to read them over. Because actually I'm a reader. I finished reading Harry Potter 7 only in one day. I'm sure I'll like those books I bought. I just hardly have much time to spend on it.

Argumentative Text

hey, I remembered that some time ago I wrote an argumentative text that should have been collected to Miss Desi. But I think she forgot that she had asked us to do that. So instead of letting it be unread, publishing it on this blog would be better. Please have a look..

The Press Should Decline to Report on Private Lives of Politicians

Initially, one of the reasons why I chose this topic is because I realize that there is something related between media or press and the private lives of politicians. Politics can be an instrument of change or force of good, but I’m sure we all know that it is the press that exposed corruption and other negative things and behavior of politicians. The relation between these two things is very interesting to be talked about. And of course people will have many different arguments and we all will have hard times to decide what is best; Forbid the press to make report of private lives of the political figures because private lives is privacy or allow them to make report of it because you want to know how they live their life and you are curious if they do something bad.

As a citizen, I would rather choose the second one. I want to know what they do in their life and honestly I am very curious about corruption, collusion, or even nepotism they might do. In the last two years many crimes which were done by the political figures are revealed. I have to admit that the press does their job very well. And of course I really support the media that can reveal more ‘weird’ behavior of our politicians. Just like a few months ago. Well, we all know that a few months ago a porn video of one of our representatives in DPR were exposed by the press. How embarrassing! And as citizens, we all need transparency from the government. We want to know what they are doing in their life as the citizens’ representatives and what they are doing with the people’s money. And I think it is very cruel and disgusting when the politicians, as our representatives in this country, use our money in a wrong way. It is in Indonesia! Can’t they see that people are still starving and suffering? Do they use their mind? Or do they still have hearts? Any politicians or any people who work for the government should realize that many people depend their life on them. We, as the people of this great country, trust them as our representatives. We lay our hopes of a better place to live, food to be eaten or even getting better education on their hands. And I am proud of our press which is brave to reveal these crimes. The press has been very helpful for the citizens to know which political figures are good and which are not.

According to all those reasons, I’m very sure to say that I don’t agree with this topic that stated ‘The press should decline to report on private lives of politicians’. It is important to us to know the truth of what those politicians and other public figures do. For the politicians, be careful with everything you do because you should realize that as public figures you can be exposed by the press in any time, and think about your people and remember how they depend their life on you. And for the press, keep working hard to reveal more crimes and I am sure that many of the people of Indonesia agree with me and we are pleased to support you.

Thank you so much for reading!

Again

Now I'm wondering. I just don't get what is the point of talking heart to heart that we did yesterday if nothing changes? I thought it would work just like what we both wanted. You know what I'm thinking? We are just doing the very same drama over and over again!
