A Dream (is a wish)

I dreamt of you last night.

You appeared so perfect, nice, and handsome.

I was so happy and laughed at your jokes.

You smiled at me and softly talked to me.

We met at noon and I felt summer breeze touched my skin perfectly.

There were also our friends in my dreams, we all sat comfortably, thus we both only spent the time closer with each other.

You knew I only set my eyes on you.

I knew you only set your eyes on me.

We were the main characters, the rest felt like extras.

We were already grown ups, but somehow... it felt like we spent the noon at the canteen after we finished the class.

Your smile, soft gaze, attention, and voice filled me to the fullest— you lifted me up.

However, when I woke up this morning, I felt the dream was so real until a sudden realization strucked in and I felt heavy on my chest— It was only a dream.

Oh, how I wish to the wishing star that you may actually standing in front of me and I could feel those smile, gaze, attention, and voice directly.

I remembered Cinderella's A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes, and somehow, I wish that fairytales do come true— where the love gets so big until it has unstoppable power that unites every soul, touches their heart softly without any ego, giving a lot of chances and forgiveness, and beats every evil.

A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes

Ost Disney Princess Cinderella

A dream is a wish your heart makes

When you're fast asleep

In dreams, you will lose your heartache

Whatever you wish for, you keep

Have faith in your dreams, and someday

Your rainbow will come smiling through

No matter how your heart is grieving

If you keep on believing

The dream that you wish will come true

Oh, that clock

Oh, killer joy

I hear you, come on, get up, you say

Time to start another day

Even he orders me around

Well, there is one thing, they can't order me to stop dreaming

And perhaps, someday

The dream that I wish will come true

No matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing

The dream that you wish will come true

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...

Sampul Buku dan Lembarannya

Boleh nggak saya memohon satu hal? Cukup sederhana. Kebanyakan dari kalian hanya memandang sampul sebuah buku. Jika sampul itu berupa kulit, kalian akan langsung mengambilnya. Kalau buku itu hanyalah buku usang, entah siapa yang akan mengambilnya. Disini bukan tentang menilai buku dari sampulnya. Tapi tentang siapa yang akan mengambil buku itu. Munafik memang, kalau kita mengaku tidak melihat orang dari penampilan. Tapi entah kenapa saya letih dengan semua itu. Letih dengan tipuan paling sederhana. Saya ingin kalian tetap menatap saya dalam keadaan terburuk, terjelek. Bukan dalam keadaan sebaliknya. Apa terkesan saya sombong? Tidak, bukan itu maksudnya. Saya hanya ingin kalian membuka buku itu setelah melihat sampulnya. Saya bukan buku bersampul kulit. Saya hanya buku biasa. Lembarannya putih, polos, tanpa coretan. Saya butuh kalian yang dapat mengisi lembaran-lembaran ini, bukan hanya menggeletakkan buku ini ke lemari hingga usang.

A Battle Throughout The Years

I met him somewhere in the last few months in 2019. He has a cute smile, taller than me, long straight hair, with tattoos on his hand. He was different from my ideal man. I thought he loved me, but I realize now, it was actually a love bombing. I learned to love him each year, but I realize now, I was only fooling myself and keep on pretending. -2019- December. It was my birth month, but instead of getting me a surprise, he yelled at me and cursed me. I cried. I told him, "this is my first time in my birthday that I cry. You made me cry in my birthday. You didn't give me present, you didn't congratulate me. You made me cry. Men congratulated me, gave me presents, and flowers. You brought me tears." Then, there was another time when he actually mad at me because I couldn't come to his house after office hour. I was so tired, I needed to commute with train and ojek to got to my office. I said sorry to him, but, he cursed me again. I called my cousin who stayed in Ba...

(Sedikit) Curhat

Alhamdulillah, 2017 is soon to be over! Rasanya bersyukur dan senang banget ternyata mayoritas Resolusi 2017 yang ditulis di akhir tahun 2016 kemarin sudah jadi kenyataan. Kehidupan perkuliahan itu sulit, serius. Apapun jurusan kamu, semua ada ups and downs nya. Gue yang sudah hampir menjadi mahasiswa angkatan tua, ngerasain banget jenuh-jenuhnya. Kasarnya, kalau bisa nikah sama pengusaha kaya raya mending langsung nikah, deh. Tapi... hidup itu nggak sepenuhnya kaya drama Korea. Let it flow, nikmati saja arusnya. Gue yang sekarang di semester 5, semakin mendengar desas-desus tentang diri gue sendiri di kampus. "Cuma modal muka", "dia nggak pinter, cuma dia deketin dosen biar nilai bagus", "gue gasuka sama Nita", dan tetek-bengek lainnya. Normal, namanya hidup itu penuh pro dan kontra. Sebenarnya gue sudah mendengar ini sejak gue di semester 1, sih, tapi makin ke sini semakin kelihatan siapa saja orang-orangnya. Bahkan, beberapa orang sudah membuat gue k...
