Expect the Unexpected

Alone I walked in To the place I'd ever been Once I was a stranger But then my heart said, "I wonder..." To the place filled with bond Here I was alone There I stucked Then I whispered, "I am wonderstruck" My first glaze Making my heart blazed Wondering why I got hypnotized My first stare Making my stomach a little bizarre Asking why I was so on fire Finally I realized, It was because of you. You, the kind of person that I'd never ever ever forget. You, the kind of person that's making me wonder. You, the kind of person I'd wish never lost the moment with. The new kid fell, To the other new kid once they were

It's only 16 of 365. So brace yourself! Cheer up, lady!

Orang hebat ini... Orang hebat itu... Terlalu banyak "pengertian" tentang orang hebat. Tapi, apakah sebenarnya kita tahu siapakah orang hebat itu? Orang hebat adalah orang yang mengerti kapan dia harus mengucapkan "Tolong", "Maaf", dan "Terima Kasih." Kalau kalian bisa mengucapkan ketika kata sakti tersebut dengan lapang dada, selamat! Artinya secara tidak langsung kalian berhasil mengalahkan ego kalian. Siapapun kalian, berapapun usia kalian... Kalian adalah orang hebat. Sayangnya, banyak remaja yang tidak ingat untuk mengucapkan kata-kata tersebut. Lucu ketika saya sangat membenci orang-orang lupa mengatakannya, namun di satu sisi saya masih lupa mengatakannya juga, terkadang. Padahal, kata-kata tersebut mampu menunjukkan harga diri, martabat, pendidikan, sopan-santun, dan mungkin dapat memberikan penilaian untuk kedua orang tua kita. Tolong, M aaf, dan Terima Kasih tidak mengenal usia, jabatan, jenis kelamin,...

Who knows what will happen in the future, people said. I didn't expect this kind of friendship, and this is too good to be true. Both of you are my kind of type of friends, that I'm longing since the first step in the college. I mean, I am hard to feel comfortable and I have trust issue (seriously, walaupun terlihat banyak cerita ini-itu, I keep so many secrets, actually), but since I know both of you... I am starting to be myself again, my whole body and spirit come to life, as I can freely laugh, sometimes we're lazy as a pig, as clever as an ant, sooo... I am really blessed. As if, we know how to be happy as long as we keep the etika and sopan santun though we mock, a lot. Our first introduction was when we got the same PA for the semester. Unexpectedly and unplanned, we suddenily decided to be in the same class everyday. Somehow, our PDKT works out!! We surely don't have a lot of memories in 2016, we barely close, but we had the most precious mem...

Kamu penghuni lama. Aku penghuni baru. Kamu tiada duanya. Aku tiada gantinya. Kamu sudah indah sendiri. Ditambah aku akan semakin indah. Kamu sudah menarik dari awal. Ditambah aku, kita tidak akan tertandingi. Kamu putih. Aku cokelat. Kamu adalah lukisan masa kini. Sedangkan aku adalah perwakilan klasik. Walaupun kita berbeda, Toh, kita tetap bersanding sekarang. Walaupun kita tak sama, Justru perbedaan yang menyatukan kita. Kamu bersenar keras, membuat orang tertantang walaupun menyakitkan. Aku bersenar lembut, sedikit sakit namun mempermudah orang-orang. Namamu Jared Neeson. Namaku Brownie Dolly. Salam kenal, sayang.

Setiap Desember datang, gue selalu over excited menyambutnya. Selain karena bulan penutup tahun, banyak diskon, dan gue ultah! Tahun 2016 ini, gue menginjak usia 19 tahun pada 9 Desember yang lalu. Mungkin bagi beberapa orang, usia 17 tahun adalah usia yang terkesan wah , namun bagi gue rasanya usia 19 tahun lah yang terkesan wah . Nggak tahu juga, sejak November yang lalu, gue sudah merasakan euforia yang menggebu-gebu. Rasanya seperti gue ingin cepat-cepat menyambut 9 Desember. Dari jauh hari gue udah mengingatkan orang-orang tentang ulang tahun gue (menjijikan memang, lol), kode kado ke sana-sini. Mood gue benar-benar dijaga kestabilannya, berusaha selalu senang, optimis, dan rasanya usaha tersebut berhasil. 9 Desember 2016 Akhirnya hari yang gue tunggu tiba. Waktu itu gue lagi letih dan tertidur pulas, nggak sadar kalau Mama datang ke dalam kamar, dan uwel-uwel gue (lol, maksudnya peluk, cium, berusaha ngebangunin gue gitu). Pagi harinya beliau juga mengucapk...

(photo source: Tumblr) Dear art, Never know what is wonderstruck. Until I met you, I got paralayzed. So irresistible and I am stuck. Standing still and be amazed. Dear art, Now I know how to adore. To look from a far. Never getting bore. Finding a way to be closed to the core. Dear art, You have to know that... You are iridescent. Being in the spotlight with all your colors. Perfectly blended. Dear art, Even when I only gazed at you, And focus on you, Blurry is all you can get. Because too many people distract you. So perhaps I am hidden behind those shoulders. The shoulders of people who admire you. Dear art, Thank you for letting me watch you from here. A little bit far, so once I hope to be near. No, I won't come closer. But I will definitely stay to care. Because this is the art of adoring an art.
