Seringkali beta bertanya-tanya
Apa yang harus beta lakukan saat ini?
Mesti belajarkah? Istirahatkah? Atau bekerjakah?Pilihan ini bisa jadi penentu jalan hidup seseorang
Sebegitu pentingnya pilihan ini
Masih adakah kesempatan untuk bermain?
(quote from Bram)
si Ucok waktu di kuliah Kapita selekta bilang, “budaya orang Indonesia lah yang bikin Indonesia susah bangkit menuju keadaan yang lebih baik. Orang Indonesia hanya menghargai hasil akhir. Orientasi utama hanyalah materi. Orang yang kaya adalah orang yang paling dihormati, disanjung-sanjung. Makin kaya orang makin tinggi pula lah kedudukannya di mata orang lain. Tak heran orang berlomba-lomba menjadi orang kaya, bagaimana pun caranya. Ini lah awal dari segala malapetaka. Segala cara dihalalkan agar menjadi orang kaya demi mencapai derajat sosial tertinggi di masyarakat. Korupsi, penggelapan, penipuan, kolusi, kongkalingkong, apapun lah namanya… semua yang haram dihalalkan.
Demikian juga di dunia pendidikan. Hasil akhir adalah nilai. orang yang nilainya paling tinggi adalah yang paling hebat menurut mereka. Maka setiap siswa berlomba-lomba memperoleh nilai terbaik, apapun caranya. termasuk mencontek.. Jika sekolah yang merupakan awal dari kehidupan sosial seseorang dimulai sudah begini, ya wajarlah jika di masyarakat terjadi korupsi dkk… orang yang berjuang dengan cara baik tidak dihargai. perjuangan mereka tidak penting. yang penting adalah hasil akhir..”
kurang lebih begitu lah kata si Ucok..
hebat lu, Cok..
gua dulu pernah mencontek, tersadar gua bahwa yang gua kejar hanyalah seperti yang lu bilang, Cok..
Mudah2an gua gak plintat-plintut bau kentut
So many things happened in a day in my life. It’s up to me how to respond it. I can just let it happened, of I just can regret it, or like people say I can take the good side of the things heppened in my life. It’s choice. Naahh.. what am I talking about.. :p:p:p
Actually it is all about my friend’s statement, (it’s an old quote I think, I don’t know who started this..)
My happiness is someone else’s sadness
I think about this and yaaaa, he’s right. If am happy, means that I make some achievement, maybe someone fail to achieve the same goal as me.
So, what should I do? Should I pretend to be not happy? or just ignore him or her who fail (can be someone you know or not, but he/she should know you, because you achieve what he/she doesn’t and he/she watches you…)
I remember another quotes saying (naahh… is this all about quotes..? but sometimes quotes really make me “think” 
)
hmm.. I forget the exact line, but the point is do not profuse (is this the right word for “berlebih-lebihan”? ), jangan berlebihan…
Did you ever read books which ending is not like what you expected?
Or movie? You enjoyed reading and watching it, but at the end of the story you felt like: “kok begini sih… jelek banget ending nya…”
That’s why I usually do small research before read or watch movie about its ending.
If it is a good ending -don’t have to be happy ending, sad ending is OK, but it must be good- I will buy that book or I will watch the movie…
This book is an exception. The Curious Insident of the Dog in the Night Time.I read Indonesian Edition.
I like this book because it has several things about logic in math and science. Although the language itself is unsual -the storyteller is an autis who is weak in social relationship and emotional-. The ending of this book is not like what I expected. But I recommend you to read this.
Naah…
nothing to say now. It’s been a long time since the last time I wrote here.
Now, I will just put a poem from Mr. Firman which I got yesterday.
He made me think. haha… Not because I don’t think everyday, but this is really something, you know.
The Man in the Mirror
If you get what you want in your struggle for self
And the world makes you King for a day
Then go to the mirror and look at yourself
And see what that Man has to say
For it isn’t a man’s father, mother or wife
Whose judgement upon his must pass
The fellow whose verdict counts most in his life
Is the Man staring back from the glass
He’s the fellow to please, never mind all the rest
For he’s with you clear up to the end
And you’ve passed your most dangerous, difficult test
If the Man in the glass is your friend
You can fool the whole world down the pathway of years
And get pats on the back os you pass
But your final reward will be hearthache and tears
if you’ve cheated the Man in the glass
