Tribute for Him

"Losing someone hurts."

I'm not talking about love. Losing your boyfriend / girlfriend isn't THAT hurt, seriously. But when it comes to your family... it hurts. Really truly hurt. My Uncle, Koko Triananto, just passed away on Feb 3rd, and though he was just my "uncle", he was everyhting to us.

He was the one who picked me up everyday when I had extra lessons at NF Palmerah. He was the one that got mad at me when I was so naughty. He was the one who saved me. And... I'm feeling bad because I am probably the most kurang ajar niece that he had. I hadn't do anything that pleased him yet, and I'm really sad to know that I can't do it on the future.

To my Mom, he was the only big brother after Pakde Nono passed away in 2010. Pakde Koko took care of my Mom very well, and so my Mom. Their bond was so strong, they helped each other, loved each other, and never feud.

There were the times when we cried together...

We're still grieving of Pakde Koko.

The first time I felt lost was when Pakde Nono passed away, but now... it hurts me more.

And the worse is, my heart torn in pieces everytime I see Mom crying. Losing him makes Mom pretty fragile these days. She's super sensitive right now, and even makes me worry of her.

We know we shouldn't cry about him...

Please rest in peace our beloved uncle-father-grandpa, Koko Triananto. Please be safe on heaven with Eyangkung, Eyangyut, Pakde Nono, and Ongge. We'll meet soon..

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 Toegijo Kartosandjojo, 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 l...

Art (part n)

The night is becoming my enemy right now. It is collided between what I feel deep in the heart and what I think deep in the mind. I do live in world that is no fairytale exist. Pathethic. Human lives by expecting on someone else, thus they expect too high. When she / he can not be something or someone they wished to be, they get mad. You will be nagged every single hours, hearing those non stop harsh words. Are we wrong for being here? To live in this same world and to breathe the same air? Deep in the mind, I hate to live in this world. I hate to grow up. I hate to have a lot of responsibilities. I just want to be kids again. To play all day long until you run out of air, and just ignore the adults words without getting worry. But in the other side, Lately for the past 6 months, I have found a new inspiration. Of someone that I don't brave to say out loud. Of someone that easily slips to become the new art. He is the most beautiful art, a thing that easily distract me from hi...

If we were real, Would you feel any bless? Would you give us the chance? Would you stay when I ask? If we were real, Could I feel jealous of the other girl? Could I smile everytime you call? Could I ask you to feel the way I feel? Because if we were real, I would always keep you safe. I would keep you by my side. I would miss to hug you tight. I would make you smile and laugh. Because if we were real, It is like a dream come true. To have someone as strong as I am by my side. To have someone smarter than I am. To have someone braver than I am. Because if we were real, It is like having two alphas become one. United as a double power. United as a one true pairing. United as a one heart.

A Reminder

The spring will come out soon. The snow will melt and the sun will shine brightly. The birds will fly high to the skies while the butterflies will make the flowers bloom. Another day has gone and the time passed fastly. Too fast that you can not even enjoy your life for a while. And here I am, stuck in a never ending cycle. As a 3rd year student who is very exhausted about college. But to be honest, This place is where I am supposed to be. I am loved. Surrounded by the people who loves me as my self. Yes, I may have some haters who envy me or talk behind my back. But... who cares? Once again, I am loved. Life is too precious to feel bad over something that you can not even change no matter how hard you try. Accept yourself. Breathe the fresh air. Fill your mind with happiness. Let the sorrow disappear. Do your hobbies though people said that you are bad at it. Sing out loud until your voice crack a little. Play the guitar with your soul and may the string breaks. ...
