Minta sama Tuhan

2012-02-10T07:19:00.001+07:00

Pagi ini saya baca status fb seseorang, yang intinya dia bersyukur karena menang judi. Bersyukurnya pake nyebut nama Tuhan pula.
Menurut saya sih ini nggak sopan ya, semacam menyia-nyiakan nama Tuhan.
Terus waktu saya posting tentang ini di twitter, ada temen yg komen: "gimana dengan menyebut nama Tuhan hanya untuk meminta dan menuntut??".
Saya bukan orang yang paham betul soal agama. Walaupun saya berjilbab, tapi pengetahuan agama saya masih cetek, BANGET.
Tapi yang saya tau, kita sebagai manusia, emang diharuskan untuk meminta dan memohon HANYA kepada Tuhan. Kalo kita memohon sesuatu sama selain Tuhan, itu beresiko musyrik, alias menyekutukan Tuhan.
Toh untuk urusan mengabulkan atau enggak, itu kan hak prerogatifnya Tuhan. Kita emang bisanya cuman minta aja.
Kembali lagi ke masalah 'nyebut nama Tuhan hanya untuk minta dan nuntut', itu balik lagi ke diri kita masing-masing.
MALU nggak tuh sama Tuhan, kalo kita dateng, berlutut, nangis-nangis, cuman ketika kita lagi butuh atau minta sesuatu.
Bukannya sok menggurui, tapi ini sebenernya teguran untuk diri sendiri juga sih.
Menurutku ini manusiawi banget kok, manusia kan emang tempatnya salah dan dosa. Klise, tapi bener kan?
Kenyataannya frase INGAT TUHAN nggak semudah pengucapannya.
Tinggal kita sebagai umatnya nih, yang selalu butuh dan selalu minta sama Tuhan, mau nggak kita berusaha untuk selalu ingat sama Tuhan, nggak cuman saat kita butuh??

Sometimes we're friends, sometimes we're more then friends & sometimes I'm just a stranger to you.

Dear girls...

When you're in a relationship, you shared each other's life. But it's still YOUR LIFE, not his.

Kalo pacar kamu abusive, dan kamu berharap setelah menikah nanti dia bakal berubah, atau nggak akan abusive lagi, SIAP-SIAP KECEWA.
Nggak ada ceritanya cowok yang abusive ketika pacaran, terus berubah jadi lembut dan penyayang setelah married. Yang ada malah makin parah, karena dengan menikahi kamu dia makin ngerasa berhak atas kamu.
Dan suatu saat nanti, bisa aja yang jadi korban nggak cuma kamu. Anak-anak, bahkan keluarga dekat, bisa jadi korban berikutnya.
Kalo dia beneran sayang sama kamu, dia nggak akan nyakitin kamu, apalagi secara fisik.
Walaupun setelahnya dia nyesel sampe nangis atau bahkan nyembah-nyembah, itu bukan jaminan. Siklus itu akan terus berulang.
Pukul - nyesel - minta maaf, gitu terus.
You deserve better than that.
Jadi, masih mikir-mikir buat ninggalin cowok yang abusive???

Dear my bestfriend's boyfriend

Just because she's yours at the moment, doesn't mean she will be in the future. Treat her right or someone else will.

Make You Feel My Love

2011-10-31T06:11:00.000+07:00

When the rain
Is blowing in your face
And the whole world
Is on your case
I could offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love

When the evening shadows
And the stars appear
And there is no one there
To dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love

I know you haven't made
Your mind up yet
But I would never do you wrong
I've known it
From the moment that we met
No doubt in my mind
Where you belong

I'd go hungry
I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling down the avenue
No, there's nothing
That I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love

The storms are raging
On the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
Though winds of change
Are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothing like me yet

I could make you happy
Make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of the earth for you
To make you feel my love
To make you feel my love

I can be tough
I can be strong
But with you, It's not like that at all

There's a girl who gives a shit
Behind this wall
You just walk through it

And I remember all those crazy thing you said
You left them running through my head
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here

All those crazy things we did
Didn't think about it just went with it
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here

Damn, Damn, Damn,
What I'd do to have you
Here, Here, Here
I wish you were here

Damn, Damn, Damn,
What I'd do to have you
Near, Near, Near
I wish you were here.

I love the way you are
It's who I am don't have to try hard
We always say, Say like it is
And the truth is that I really miss

No, I don't wanna let go
I just wanna let you know
That I never wanna let go

I Don't Care

2011-09-12T11:17:00.002+07:00

I don't care what's happening between us.
I don't care whether you hold my hand or not.
I don't care that we had this 'kinda-weird-casual-relationship'.

I don't care,
I don't care,
I don't care.

I just want you to be here.
I just want you to be with me when i need my 'piece-of-sanity'.
I just want you to be there when i call.
I just want you to sit and tell your stories like we used to be.

I just want you to be you.

Rindu Sendu

Sesungguhnya kata rindu itu terasa sendu ketika dia merasakan hal yang sama, untuk orang lain.

Follow your heart?

2011-07-22T08:23:00.002+07:00

Mengikuti kata hati memang sebuah keharusan. Tapi ketika orang-orang terdekat kita, yang sayang sama kita, bilang kalo pilihan kita salah, just sit down and think about it. Maybe they're right. Mungkin hati kita sedang membuat pilihan yang salah dan butuh diservis.

Besties!

2011-07-14T13:58:00.003+07:00

My beautiful besties.
Mila Pradipta & Arnitya Sari Ika Putri.

Menurutku, persahabatan diuji justru ketika kita tidak lagi punya banyak waktu untuk 'bersentuhan' dengan mereka. Ketika kita tiap hari ketemu, kemana-mana bareng, trus kita jadi deket, itu biasa. Tapi ketika kita tidak lagi berada dalam lingkungan yang sama dan aktifitas yang sama, di situ kita baru bisa melihat dan merasakan apakah orang ini bener-bener bisa disebut sahabat.
Aku pernah punya temen deket waktu SMP. Duduk sebangku, kemana-mana berdua, punya buku curhat yang kita tulis berdua, partner-in-crime lah pokoknya. Tapi setelah pisah SMA, ya udah. Biasa-biasa aja.
Beda sama dua orang ini. Kita bertiga satu SMA. Waktu kelas 3 sekelas. Tapi bahkan sebenernya kita nggak bener-bener sahabatan bertiga. I mean, Mila is my bestfriend, and Putri is my bestfriend, but Me-Mila and Me-Putri are in different circles.
Lulus SMA, Mila kuliah di Ubaya, aku sama Putri masuk Unair di fakultas yang sama. Sejak kuliah emang kita jadi punya pergaulan masing-masing, jarang ketemu, dan nggak tiap hari bisa keep-in-touch. Tapi rasanya tetep sama, kita tetep saling curhat dan saling support each other, kadang juga pergi bareng atau sleepover.
Kuantitas pertemuan yang berkurang nggak mengurangi kualitas pertemanan kita. This is what i call a real-bestfriend.

I love you besties! :*

Bulan Juni kemaren sempet ke Jakarta sebenernya, tapi tapi tapi ga sempet ngepost aja. Hehehehe. Bukan buat maen-maen sih, dalam rangka kerjaan juga. Dateng ke event-nya Semen Gresik plus beliin buku-nya si Bos (yang gak ada di Surabaya).

Actually i don't really like this city. It's too crowded, terlalu riweh, dan terlalu rempong buat orang yang emosian kayak aku. Hahahahaha. What's good about this city is, uhm.. apa yaa... (thinking) yah, segala ada gitu deh. Tapi beneran deh, aku masih lebih memilih Surabaya atau Jogjakarta untuk ditinggali (IMHO).

Dan pastinyeehh, makaann! Hahahahaha.
Dari bandara nggak pake lama, langsung cuss ke Burger King (yang nggak ada di Surabaya :P)

And this is my travel mates, Mbak Yenni

Mbak Zona

Nyoba-nyoba bikin batik, di event-nya Semen Gresik :D
