My tired diary

-



I cherish simplicity's sweet embrace,
When I'm nothing, it's in that space.
Luxury's touch, I may never know,
Yet happiness in a garden's glow.

Pride's fleeting, I understand,
As I sit with blooms, nature's hand.

    Nobody else can cure your wound but you alone;
    self-confidence for sure takes you from your cry zone.
    The sweet smile of your own makes the whole world laugh too;
    yes, the sadder you moan, the more it's only you.

    I'm sorry my dear, happy birthday.

Tentang Buku "Entrok" dan Marni: Perempuan, Mimpi Kecil, dan Luka Besar

-

Entrok, entrok, dan entrok. Kalau ada orang yang bertanya kepadaku, novel Indonesia dengan latar tahun 60-an terbaik versiku, akan aku jawab "Entrok-nya Mba Okky".  Sebuah kisah yang mengguncang, menghantam kesadaran, dan meninggalkan luka yang tidak segera sembuh. Novel  Entrok  (2010) adalah debut dari Okky Madasari, yang kemudian dikenal sebagai penulis sastra sosial-politik. Buku ini membuka jalan bagi tema-tema besar seperti kebebasan, kekuasaan, dan identitas dalam karya-karya selanjutnya. Salah satu kutipan favoritku di buku ini: Kutipan ini muncul di awal novel, dan awalnya kukira ini adalah kalimat romantis antara pria dan wanita. Ternyata aku salah besar — dan aku baru menyadarinya setelah menyelesaikan cerita. Okky Madasari sangat lihai dalam meletakkan latar waktu di novelnya. Kutipan di atas adalah di "masa sekarang" dan cerita di lanjut dengan sudut pandang Marni di masa lalu . Seorang wanita Jawa miskin dan buta huruf yang hanya tinggal dengan ibunya ...

English Debate Cuman Lomba Bacot??

Apa yang pertama kali kalian pikirin kalau denger "Lomba Debat" ?? Kalo pengalamanku nih ya, temen temen yang pada awam bakalan bilang; " Hala mek bondo bacot" (oh hanya modal bicara) "Hala lek nyocot tok aku yo isok" (ah kalau bicara saja aku juga bisa) "Hah?! Debat onok lombae?" (ha?debat ada lombanya?) Beberapa kalimat yang aku terima waktu teman-temanku tau aku ikutan lomba debat. Okelah, aku nggak akan denial memang faktor utamanya "berdebat" ya bacot (bicara). Tapi kalau kita mau cari tau tentang "what is lomba debat?" Well, it is more than what you've seen visually and what you've heard verbally. Slightly throwback pertama kali aku masuk ke dunia perdebatan; Dipaksa. Dipaksa karena kurangnya "debater" buat bikin tim debat untuk ikut newbie competition. Ikut karena terpaksa is another level of joke sih 😄😄  Okey singkat cerita tim kita menang 4th place + best speaker. First money, first trophy, first d...

Nobody warned me that 23 will be this lonely

-
When I was younger, I imagined my twenties would be filled with adventure, spontaneous trips, long conversations under city lights, and people who would always stay. I thought I’d have it all figured out by now: my career, my relationships, my place in the world. I wasn’t completely wrong, but I wasn’t completely right either. Being 23 feels like standing on shattered ground, everything you’ve ever known begins to crack, and you have no choice but to move forward, even when you don’t know what’s waiting on the other side. No one warns you how confusing it feels when life quietly shifts. People start their own journeys; some move away, some get too busy, and some just fade from your story. Suddenly, the people who used to be a constant part of your days are just familiar names in your contact list. And you realize: it’s not because anyone stopped caring, it’s because everyone’s trying to figure out their own chaos too. At 23, loneliness feels like a quiet companion. It visits you on...
