(Different) Twins

Dear Nadia,
I never thought that I can befriend with you. It's nice having a good friend, a dear good friend, that's an introvert version of my self. You're the INTP and I'm the ENTP, so I'm feeling like you know me better than anyone else. As I said earlier to you, maybe we're like twins. It's just the one tiny different that makes us different, and I'm glad with it.

Honestly, before I met or knew you, I thought you're an arrogant and selfish woman because you look soooooo quite and you're classy (SERIOUSLY), LOL. Even before our introduction, I always love your sense of fashion... Your sense of fashion is a little bit similar to me. And once again, I think we're twins from different womb, lol. But then things changed and we met. It was a little bit awkward at first but I still remember how we think about the same thing at the same time, and before I knew you're an INTP, I had this feeling that you're like me, something about you remind me of myself. But then suddenly I knew you're an INTP (from our lecturer of course, before you put it in your blog, lol) and the sense came to me and I now know it.

I think... You're smart, because you love to write and read every literature especially in physiology, beautiful (INSIDE AND OUT), classy, and my judgement of you changed 360° when we became friend. You are the most caring person that I met, someone that surprisingly help me with 'something' from the very beginning.

Why do I write about you, actually?

Nadia, do you remember when we finished Manajemen Perbankan class? As we walked through the corridor, you were worrying me and my 'disease'. Kebetulan, I'm actually just healed from it... I didn't think that was a coincidence, but I think deep down in your heart you knew something was wrong but you were still in doubt. To be honest, only some people know that I was 'kumat' for the whole month (last month). I wanted to tell you, but I'm afraid... I don't know why. But when you asked me about my 'disease', that moment I realized... Well, my (unrelated) twins has a right to know about it, lol.

"I'm afraid that you sick but no one knows. People can hide themself and I'm afraid that you look okay on the outside but broken inside," you said that.

"Well yes, sometimes I am quite and hide myself from people. I do tell some people, but not everyone. Actually, I'm just healed from it. Why do you ask? Is it because I look different lately?"

"Well, I don't know. It's just make me worry about you."

Then you were standing quite while staring at me.

"Please don't do anything to Nita. I want to see Nita, the real Nita that I know."

Nad.... Seriously, I was so touched when you said it. To be honest, I was trying not to sobbing in the cafetaria. :)

"It's not that Nita is gone... Well people told me that I better find that old style Nita that they know."

"Well, I just want Nita safe and sound. You can tell me everything, okay?" What touched me the most was.... THEN YOU KISS ME ON THE CHEEK, that was so nice of you :) I was holding myself not to hug you in the crowd because people may feel a little bit awkward with that, lol.

I am speechless.

So Nadia, thank you for being my friend, my sister, and my twins that I longing all these years. It's nice talking to you and I'm glad that I can trust you with my untold stories, and thank you for trusting me with some of your stories, too! It's nice having a deep discussion from your perspective. I'm really hoping that our friendship will never be ended, we have to keep the bond no matter what the circumstances is.

Love,
Varenka :p

Pancasila, Nasionalisme, dan Eyangkung

Mungkin Eyangkung (Eyang Kakung, Kakek dalam bahasa Jawa) benci disebut-sebut sebagai pahlawan. Tapi, memang kenyataannya begitu. Tidak akan ada Indonesia tanpa Eyangkung dan para pahlawan yang lain. Eyangkung saya bernama Eyang TK, beliau lahir di Solo pada 17 Agustus 1919. Eyangkung bersekolah di Neutrale H. I. S Solo dan beliau berprestasi di sekolahnya. Karena prestasi itulah beliau dibebaskan dari les persiapab masuk M. U. L. O. dan pada akhirnya beliau berhasil masuk tanpa melalui tes ujian masuk. Sebagai cucu kesekian, saya sangat bangga mempunyai sosok Eyangkung. Karena beliau, saya selalu bersumpah akan membawa nama baik keluarga. Saya nggak mau menjelekkan nama baik keluarga besar, saya nggak mau dibilang, "cucu pahlawan kok seperti itu?" (Walaupun saya ini memang tergolong bandel sih, cuma bandelnya masih sebatas wajar). Walaupun beliau wafat setahun sebelum saya lahir, banyak cerita yang sudah saya dengar maupun foto-foto beliau yang saya lihat.  Dari yan...

What I Like

Di suatu malam minggu yang membosankan, gue galau karena hujan yang turun dengan perasaan php yang membabi buana. Hujan turun, berenti, turun, berenti. Ngga jelas maunya apa. Malam itu gue pun dengan isengnya membuka Youtube dan menonton Malam Minggu Miko buatan Raditya Dika. Gue pun ngakak sendirian nontonnya. Ehh, selesai nonton kedua episode, gue iseng juga nonton video Raditya Dika lagi Guitar Drifting. Anjaaaay, itu keren bangeeetttt !!! Persis kaya di August Rush, bedanya Freddie Highmore lebih ganteng tentunya. Tapiii, itu gue baru tau kalo itu namanya Guitar Drifting!! :O Gue pun browsing tentang guitar drfiting. Dan gue tertarik sama aksinya Andy McKee yang aseli kerennya kebangetan. Ohhh, gue aja main gitar masih belepotan. Gimana mau nyoba guitar drifting coba.... Check these video and you'll be amazed... Art of Motion - Andy McKee Rylnn - Andy McKee Selain Andy McKee, ada Depapepe, duo Jepang yang OHMIGOT. Mainnya keren banget. Gue ngga tau mer...

A Woman Called Nadia

Andaikan Nadia adalah seorang pria, aku sepertinya akan memilih untuk menikah dengannya. Sayangnya, Nadia adalah seorang wanita, sahabatku sejak masa kuliah. Aku pernah beberapa kali menulis tentang dia dan sahabat-sahabatku yang lainnya, namun, seiring bertumbuh dewasa aku, hanya Nadia yang lebih konsisten hadir di hidupku dalam berbagai fase. Aku nggak pernah menyangka, aku bisa terus bersahabat dengan Nadia hingga selama ini, bahkan sampai pergi berlibur bersama dan menginap. Nadia adalah sahabatku, malah mungkin sudah seperti saudaraku sendiri. Senang. Sedih. Marah. Bingung. Kecewa. Takut. Khawatir. Semangat. Tertarik. Kami sama-sama selalu hadir dengan berbagai perasaan yang ada di diri kami, dengan itu kami tumbuh dan berkembang bersama. Mulai dari suka dan duka, kami terus saling mendampingi satu sama lain. Nadia tau seluruh ceritaku dan perilakuku, dan begitupun sebaliknya. Kami adalah yin-yang, jungkat-jungkit, ontang-anting yang selalu melengkapi satu sama lain. Aku nggak per...

Bookaholic

My name is Nita. I'm a bookaholic. I can read thousands of books in a day. My eyes would be so green if I see lots of books. My imagination is in high level. And I live with an optimistic because I hope... I'll find my Happy Ending one day. I love reading novels. Horror, Sleuth-ish, Romantic, everything as long as the book is good. Beside that, I wanna be a writer. A bright future novelist. A famous author. Suatu hari di Gramedia Grand Indonesia, dengan berbagai macam buku yang pengen dibeli... Tapi cuma dibolehin ambil 2 sama Mama. T-T Dari sekian banyak novel yang dibaca, gue itu suka dengan karya-karyanya Trenton Lee Stewart di seri Mr. Benedict Society yang tebal bukunya bisa 500-an. Ceritanya TOP banget, seru, buat gregetan, dan sktech nya juga bagus..... -_- Terus ada juga Meg Cabot, an author who made Princess Diaries. Cerita buatan beliau memang 'terlalu' Barat, tapi karyanya tetap jadi andalan untuk gue. Sedangkan dari negara kita sendiri juga ada ...

Worthy Soul

I like deep hugs. I like holding hands. I like unexpected kisses. I like to be clingy. I want it everyday. I want to be loved, seen, heard, wanted, and needed. I want intimacy, connection, feeling warm and safe. I want a bond, soul to soul. A real love. Not a lust. I was kissed and hugged by love, several times, years ago in juvenile times. I was kissed and hugged by lust, several times in adult times. They longed for more hugs and kisses, they craved me. Some came from the intimacy and connection built in trust and affection, the rest... came from lust. As a lover woman, I know the difference, I could feel it... and I hate how lust could tainted the intimacy, connection, and the bond of souls. I hate how lust could made it as if an assault where I was only an object, not a subject. I hate how intimacy and connection eventually could became a lust. I miss to feel the sacred of love, where it overflows with intimacy and connection. Where eyes could speak to another eyes, without needing...
