Let Go - Windhy Puspitadewi



highly recommended to read this book for you. sebenarnya, ini teenlit. dan saya merasa agak salah membeli buku ini karena merasa saya sudah kuliah dan tidak pas kalau baca teenlit. buku ini sudah lama saya biarkan di tumpukan buku, karena saya belum juga menuntaskan membaca gossip gril.
ketika saya iseng membuka buku ini dan membaca bab pertama, saya meng-underestimate buku ini. yah, tipikal teen-lit. cinta-cintaan masa SMA, masalah persahabatan, keluarga broken, yah masalahnya itu-itu aja kayaknya.
tapi, melihat gaya bahasa di novel ini membuat saya ga bisa lepas selama seharian ini. tata bahasanya tidak meremaja memang, sopan dan cerdas. tidak menduga ketika saya baca buku tentang remaja yang saya underestimate kan ini saya merasa sangat bodoh.
buku ini menyebutkan sedikit tentang musik klasik, lalu juga membahas buku-buku Pramoedya Ananta Toer, sesuatu yang ga biasa memang untuk remaja.
buku ini bukan tidak ada tentang romansa. ada. tapi dikemas tidak begitu menonjol. dan ini yang membuat saya cinta buku ini.
banyak dialog-dialog yang menohok saya. dan yang paling menohok adalah dialog si pemeran utama, Raka. di halaman 127 dia bilang: "Kamu enggak akan bisa menyenangkan hati semua orang, Sar. Itu sebabnya kamu harus berani bilang 'TIDAK'" yap, memang terkadang kita suka sok baik dengan selalu meng-iyakan permintaan orang yang mungkin belum tentu baik untuk mereka, atau bahkan untuk kita. dan ga semua penolakan itu ga menyenangkan hati orang.
yap, buat ukuran teenlit, cerita ini begitu matang. sangat recommended dibaca untuk para remaja. :D

holiday=FAMILY's day

i heart my family. i'm so thankful that i have such a nice family. i had a really awesome holiday this year.
started with family reunion at my amangtua's house. we had a great night. had a barbeque party, chit-chat with my whole family, and switch the gift. for the last one, that's only for a children. ah, i miss my childhood btw.
idk why, but at that night, i just realized that God gave me such a big gift. yes, God sent me to a really nice family like my family. i can talk to my parents or even my amangtua and inangtua just like talk to my friend. i can share everything with them. what can i ask for more?
after that, i had a nice christmas eve too. finally, i can give something to my parents, my sister, and my brother. my first christmas gift for them. and i feel so happy when i saw them open the present. aaah, cant wait for next christmas.
then, before new year, we had a big family reunion again. altough we had not completed family reunion, but i still happy. we had a family trip to Sari Ater. uhm, i had some trouble there. me and my brothers forgot to bring our bags. uhm, sounds weird right? but, we can fix that trouble, so we still can enjoy that trip.
my holiday still on its way. the next was my family trip to Bali. yeahs. i was like aaah, im so happy i can go there with my family. i went to Bali with my parents, my lil' brother-dika, and my lil sister-ival. we had 3 nights at Bali. im so in love with Kuta. and i swear i have to get there again someday. but unfortunately, i can't enjoy the sunset, the weather was bad. and i got my 'monthly guest' so i cant enjoy the water sport. aaaah, i have to go to Bali again!!
yap, i really enjoyed my holiday. i can spent my time with my family. cant wait for next family trip. bunaken maybe, dad??

Sang Pemimpi

Kebetulan kemarin saya sempat nonton Sang Pemimpi. Akhirnya, kesampaian juga buat nonton film ini.
After all, sih saya ga banyak komen tentang filmnya. Saya malah ga fokus tentang si Arai-sang pemimpi, tapi malah lebih ngena dengan adegan father-son nya Ikal dan bapak.
Film ini membuat saya terbuka dengan sosok seorang ayah. Kalo kata Ikal di film ini, ayah no.1 di dunia. Yes, he's my father.
I think, everyone will say that their father was the number one in this whole world. But seriously, I mean it.
Uhm, actually, I can't make a nice words, or something 'touchy' to describe this person in this post.
Setelah menonton adegan father-son tadi, saya hanya teringat sesuatu.
Saya masih ingat waktu saya bermimpi jadi penyanyi, ayah saya ada di samping saya, mendorong saya agar bisa bernyanyi di depan orang.
Waktu saya punya setumpuk cerita dan bermimpi menjadi penulis, ayah saya juga ada untuk mengkritik tulisan saya.
Waktu saya hobi memainkan piano, ayah saya juga sering mendorong saya agar bisa memainkan satu buah lagu saja untuknya.
Waktu saya ingin menjadi pengusaha kecil-kecilan, ayah saya juga ada untuk mengingatkan saya agar tetap ingat kuliah.
Bahkan ketika saya mulai menyusun resolusi awal tahun, dia ada untuk mengingatkan saya agar tetap konsisten.

Ya, saya memang sang pemimpi. Dan how lucky I am, to have a father like him. Who always support me to follow and catch my dreams. And whenever I fall, he always remind me to get up and try again to run from the start line.

P.S: untuk ayah saya yang bertanya kapan saya menceritakan beliau di blog saya. ;)

out!

have you ever feel bored?
like world doesn't have any colors
like the earth just turn around and around and around
and you feel nothing
you just think it's deja vu
always same like yesterday

have you ever feel tired?
like running hundred miles
like you have to bring a heavy rock on your back
and you feel yes, you can walk, but it takes a long time to move
you just think it's hard
always makes you think to stop

have you ever feel stressed out?
like the world spinning you around thousand times
like you have a very bad headache
and you feel like you are in the labyrinth
you have to move out and you don't even know the clue where is the exit door
always makes you think to give up

but hey, have you ever heard?
that there's always the light after the black one?
there's no problem that u can't solve
just put other colors to your life
don't stop running
don't give up to get the exit door

take me home

i miss hearing my mom when she woke me up.
i miss making a cup of tea for my dad.
i miss having a heart to heart conversation with my old brother.
i miss asking my brothers to buy me some foods.
i miss dancing, singing, and playing the piano with my sister.
i miss sitting on my comfortable sofa in my room.
i miss reading a novel while the rain is falling outside the window.
take me home, please.

when you love someone

currently falling in love with one song from endah n rhesa

When You Love Someone

I love you but it's not so easy to make you here with me
I wanna touch and hold you forever
But you're still in my dream
And I can't stand to wait ‘till nite is coming to my life
But I still have a time to break a silence
When you love someone
Just be brave to say that you want him to be with you
When you hold your love
Don't ever let it go
Or you will loose your chance
To make your dreams come true...

I used to hide and watch you from a distance and i knew you realized
I was looking for a time to get closer at least to say... “hello”
And I can't stand to wait your love is coming to my life
When you love someone
Just be brave to say that you want him to be with you
When you hold your love
Don't ever let it go
Or you will loose your chance
To make your dreams come true...

And I never thought that I'm so strong
I stuck on you and wait so long
But when love comes it can't be wrong
Don't ever give up just try and try to get what you want
Cause love will find the way....
When you love someone
Just be brave to say that you want him to be with you
When you hold your love
Don't ever let it go
Or you will loose your chance
To make your dreams come true...

can't wait for their perform tomorrow ;)

October 30th

Maybe it's just like another friday. But for me, this is the most beautiful friday night ever.
How we spend our friday night, -or maybe how I spend my friday night-?
How we type many much words, -or maybe how I type many much words-?
How we share our stories, -or maybe how I share my stories-?
hey, do you know how I spent my days just wait and look in to my yahoo messenger?
Hey do you know how I ask all my best just to made some words to start the conversation?
And do you know how happy I am when u replied?
Do you know how blushing I am when u asked why I'm not going to bed?
Do you know how fast my heart beating and how hard I just try to make my heart going slower?
Do you know? Do you notice? Do you want to know?
Do you know what? When I woke up at the end of october I was confuse, is that happened last friday, or maybe that just happened in my dream?
If that was JUST a dream, it would be the sweetest dream ever.
