Kindness Matters. It Ripples.

At the half of the day, someone shared this beautiful video.

Why were these kind of videos made? Perhaps people have been forgetting about kindness lately, don’t they? Sometimes we need a kind reminder to get back to the life we once had. Kindness matters. It ripples 🙂

Half Empty Cup, Half Empty Day

Half Empty Cup

Don’t you just love being alone in a coffee shop, sitting in the middle of a crowd, listening to some jazzy melodies, focusing on your tablet or laptop, and time flies really fast. It’s the best creative process for me: ideas come, brain is filled with thoughts. Because they say real creativity comes only out of silence.

WordCamp Indonesia 2011

As a web application developer, I use WordPress as the CMS (not the free blog services provided by WordPress.com)  for almost all of my projects related to corporate profile, personal blog, and e-commerce portal. The very first time I met the CMS, my heart fell for it. It is robust, reliable, and totally free. Oh, and most importantly, it’s really great in assuming that you’re a dumb. Because of the fact that I love it so much, I intend to grasp some new knowledge about it. Fortunately, there’s this event called WordCamp Indonesia 2011, for which I spent my last weekend.

Goresan Singkat Tentang Sapardi

Aku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhana

dengan kata yang tak sempat diucapkan

kayu kepada api yang menjadikannya abu

Aku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhana

dengan isyarat yang tak sempat disampaikan

awan kepada hujan yang menjadikannya tiada

– Aku Ingin, Sapardi Djoko Damono –

Kalau ada sebuah pertanyaan, “Siapakah penyair yang paling anda kagumi?” dengan pasti saya akan memberikan dua nama: Chairil Anwar dan Sapardi Djoko Damono. pada kesempatan kali ini, saya akan sedikit membahas opini saya mengenai nama kedua.

The 4th Lustrum of Taruna Nusantara

Many things happen in one’s life: beautiful moments and depressing moments, falling in love and breaking up, laughing and crying, events and decisions, and other things that complete them as one big piece. Among all the things took place in my life, there were some which I regret and would have ran from. Coming to Taruna Nusantara High School on 2002 was one of them.

Two Cents About Life Philosophy

Some people talk on the phone with their pals while sitting on a bus. Some others close their ears with earphones, listen to some good musics, and then fall asleep, which is, I think, the most effective way of spending time on a trip. People have their own method on killing time on a bus. Mine, are listening to some songs, pertaining my mind in sereneness, and thinking of some things I usually don’t have any chance to think about. Last Sunday, on the way to Cikarang, on the bus seat, my mind wildly wander to something about this life. Well, my life, at least.

The Person Who Get Me Back On The Line

Gw lupa gimana rasanya jadi blogger. Gw lupa gimana sensasi ketawa-ketawa sendiri baca comment orang di postingan gw. Well, sh*t happened, and I had been not in the mood of writing anything here. Until today, ada satu orang yang bikin gw obsesif banget sama dia, yang bikin gw memutuskan kalo gw HARUS, sekali lagi, HARUS, mendokumentasikan kisah ini di blog gw. He is Joey Tribbiani 😀

This is Our Fate, I’m Yours

Banyak cara yang dipake orang buat spending their lebaran holiday this year. Mulai dari mudik ke kampung selama 1 minggu, sampe dengan tidur2an di jalanan Jakarta rumah karena cuma dapet libur beberapa hari. Gw dan beberapa temen2, ngabisin liburan dengan cara yang beda. Kita menjauh dari kota jakarta yg tetep bising, naik gunung, bercumbu dengan alam, dan menikmati keagunganNya dari dekat, untuk menyadari betapa kecilnya kita di hadapan kebesaranNya (tsssaaaah)…

Dari Lawang Sewu Sampai Seafood Enak

Gw percaya sama quote “kadang kita harus istirahat sejenak untuk berlari lebih kencang”. Atau ada juga yang mengungkapkan makna serupa dengan kisah tentang seorang penebang kayu yang tidak sadar kapaknya menjadi tumpul karena digunakan terus menerus tanpa diasah. Based on those philosophy, gw ambil cuti sejenak dari kantor, lari dari kericuhan ibukota, dan menepi di pedesaan untuk menghirup ketenangan dan kesegaran jiwa dan pikiran. Uoh.
