the new night ritual

burn another aromatic incense.
fragrant, calming.
then, try to go to sleep.
may peace be with us all.

kejutan (cobaan) menjelang awal semester 3

adalah dapet dosen wali paling private, cuma gw sendirian yg diwaliin sama dosen wali gw. memang sangat random dan aneh sepertinya mulai sekarang setiap perwalian judulnya just the two of us sih. hahaha. yang penting keurus deh gw sama dosen wali gw. amin.

huebat.

conclusion at the end of july: bulan galau will always be bulan galau. same goes this year, it doesn't change. and after a long while, i think i'm gonna see the rooftop again.





so clumsy i am, for falling.

you know i'm such a fool for you
you got me wrapped around your finger
do you have to let it linger
do you have to, do you have to
do you have to let it linger

what about later?

true, a very important question it is. but too much popping this question on your head is no good either. so how about leaving this question for later?

overcrowded mind

i enjoy a lone trip, because i won't have to engage in a conversation with anyone else but myself. i enjoy how observing little things could lead me to a very deep and serious thought. i think i am a little bit complicated, but somehow i like it. traveling my own mind is the most exciting journey :D

sedikit bahan renungan

"saya bingung, kenapa orang-orang islam di Indonesia lebih bangga dapat menguasai bahasa Inggris daripada bahasa Arab. denger orang Indonesia baca qur'an, gak ada emosinya sama sekali. kalian ga ngerti apa yang kalian baca, ga ngerti doa apa yang lagi kalian panjatkan. kalau semua umat muslim mengerti isi qur'an, islam pasti bisa jadi lebih maju di dunia ini."



rutin solat itu bagus, rutin baca qur'an lebih bagus lagi. rutin zikir, rutin doa sehari-hari, jauuuuuh lebih bagus lagi. tapi selama ini, kita ngerti gak sih sebenernya kita ngapain? makanya, gimana gak males coba kalo gak ngerti.
kalo mau soleh, harus pinter juga. percuma rajin solat tapi cuma asal gerak, asal baca hapalan. ga ngerti pas ruku ngedoa apa. ga ngerti pas sujud ngedoa apa. ga ngerti maknanya. kalo ga ngerti sih, sama aja orang bodoh ngelakuin hal yang kita sendiri ga bisa ngemaknain.
kalo mau bener-bener memaknai amalan-amalan di agama, cari tau. cari tau maknanya. ibadah itu buat diri sendiri, jangan mau asal ngelakuin apa yang disuruh tanpa ngerti manfaatnya buat diri sendiri. jadilah kritis dan pintar, ya.
haha, jadi merasa bodoh sendiri.

touchdown real life!

or maybe to be exact, touchdown to cyber life! woohooo i'm back guys! well, haven't been totally back actually. my phone's still inactive due to deposit problem (hahahaha), so still can't text or bbm at the moment. miss my friends so freaking much!!!!!

blessings in the early days of july

Semoga aku dapat memaknai nikmat kesempatan yang Kau berikan ini sepantasnya.

Semoga aku dapat mendekatkan diri kepada-Mu, tetap dekat setelah tanah itu kembali jauh.

Amin.

leavingggggg

i'm not sure you will wait, but anyhow if you won't, then you will never. and i would better know it now than some other time when everything has gone much further than this. by the next sunrise i gotta go, farewell hey brant, i hope you'll wait for me to greet you again in another warm day of july. i hope you'll be doing great, with all things that need to be taken care of in this city. i know you will do.


and i hope, even if just a little, you'll miss me the way i'll do ;p
