drunk and drive

I went to a party,
And remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mom,so I had a sprite instead.
I felt proud of myself,
The way you said I would,that I didn't drink and drive,though some friends said I should.
I made a healthy choice,And your advice to me was right.
The partyfinally ended,and the kids drove out of sight.
I got into my car,Sure to get home in one piece.
I never knew what was coming, Mom,something I expected least.
Now I'm lying on the pavement,And I hear the policeman say,the kid that caused this wreck was drunk,Mom, his voice seems far away.
My own blood's all around me,As I try hard not to cry.
I can hear the paramedic say,this girl is going to die.
I'm sure the guy had no idea,While he was flying high.
Because he chose to drink and drive,now I would have to die.
So why do people do it, MomKnowing that it ruins lives?And now the pain is cutting me,like a hundred stabbing knives.
Tell sister not to be afraid, MomTell daddy to be brave.
And when I go to heaven,put " Mommy's Girl" on my grave.
Someone should have taught him,That it's wrong to drink and drive.
Maybe if his parents had,I'd still be alive.
My breath is getting shorter,Mom I'm getting really scaredThese are my final moments,and I'm so unprepared.
I wish that you could hold me Mom,As I lie here and die.
I wish that I could say, "I love you, Mom!"So I love you and good-bye.

jadi inget, jadi sadar, yakin bahwa yang saya imani sekarang
memang benar membawa kebaikan di sini, saat ini
maupun saat nanti saya bertanggung jawab atas diri sendiri
kepada Tuhan Yang maha pemberi Nikmat

Wisdom of nature

Life is not meant to be seen only from one side, it is resembled in our earth form, that is round and floating Life is meant to be on the move, no matter how slow it is To see that it has its continuum of time That the state of life is temporary As the earth rotates dilligently The darkness is certain, so as the light Difficulties will soon fade, just like happiness Life is meant to be a journey As our earth travels in tranquility It does not move in random, it surely has its own path Its orbit.. To travel cautiously, not to collide with other planets and space objects The earth knows exactly its mission to bring various seasons for human by dilligently rotates and orbitting to send warning about darkness that comes in our way to give hope at dawn to remind people aboutl illussions in our eyes The philosophy of nature is only can be seen when we pause escape to make space in our life and reflect in iteration The image become words the events become senten...

First Chapter: How we met and why we tied the knot?

It’s been a while since my last blogpost. I think my mind rest somewhere or i did not find something interesting enough to be written or maybe i let all those thoughts disappear with time.   Today is the last day in 2016 and I am on my way back to Jakarta from Yogyakarta with Nauval, who vowed to be my life partner a week ago. As a good friend of us had written our story , i feel flattered actually.. I think one story will not hurt anyone. :D So we met in April 2015, if I’m not mistaken, I don’t remember the date. But I do remember the place, and who were involved there. What had happened between May 2015 and December 2016 are only important for us hahaha.   Probably what is important to be shared is why and how I made the decision to marry a person next to me. HOW? I had met Nauval on March 2015 with Agung and Cinta. There was no follow up after the first meeting and I was very OK with that. Life was normal. Meanwhile, my Mom and her relations wer...

Idola Cilik, sudahkah adil?

Sore ini selepas pergi bersama teman untuk menonton pertandingan tenis, saya menemukan para penghuni kos sedang berkumpul di ruang tengah untuk menyaksikan idola cilik. Saya merasa kangen nonton acara ini, karena dulu saat belum masuk babak 14 besar,saya sering sekali menonton acara ini.  Sebuah ajang bagus untuk pengembangan minat dan bakat anak-anak, sekaligus memberikan inspirasi bagi ribuan pemirsa kecil lainnya yang terlalu bingung dijejali sinetron-monolog-yang-mengumbar-gambar-orang-melotot. Lucu dan menyenangkan sekali pada awalnya, hingga pada sore ini pandangan saya terusik pada sistem eliminasi idola cilik. Menit demi menit saya mencoba menikmati rangkaian babak hasil "result show", tapi yang berputar di kepala saya hanya "kenapa begini? kenapa begitu?" Berdasarkan informasi yang saya kumpulkan dari teman-teman kos yang mendukung Cakka dan Obiet, serta satu orang yang mendukung Irsyad. Saya coba buatkan rangkaiannya. Para kontestan cilik diberi kesempatan...
