Are you somewhere safe?

Yo ma men, I need coffee. Betapa damai malam ini sehabis hujan, tak ada suara TV dikarenakan Ibu dan Bapak tidak ada di rumah. Ya, baru saja ditulis, terdengar suara mobilnya yang herek herek, herek herek, terseret-seret. Alhamdulillah si Ibu membawakan kue Good Time Cookies kesukaanku jadi galauku agak berkurang banyak.. gitu. (Nggak penting). Aku tadi itu pulang Pingu kan, trus mau mandi tapi malas.. geletakan lah aku di atas kasur. I was full of sad thoughts like 'Why Wannes doesn't care about me?' and I easily fell to sleep... in times like this, I couldn't differ which one is thought which one is dream.. it's blur between image of Wannes and a baby in Pingu. 'Why I dance my heart out for him?' and the next thing I imagined a total self destruction like a big knive tearing my whole body. Astaghfirullah that image is not nice at all. I don't know why I often imagine self destruction, like human body is just a building of bricks.. but of course when I open my eyes and touch my skin, I know this body is not made of bricks. I was still awake, I didn't really sleep. I couldn't sleep even though I am tired. I tried to create nice images but I was run out of ideas.  I fell to sleep again and awaken up several times, found out that I didn't breathe. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes again. Felt like I don't wanna face the world, that's why I kept closing my eyes eventhough I didn't really sleeeepp. 


*You're like me  
We're both alone  
What's the problem  
I don't know  
With the same high,the same eyes  
But you can't borrow my clothes all the time
 
When I suddenly heard a door slam sound in my state of awake and sleep, I wasn't surprised. That's the sound of my subconscious mind. That's a sign of protest. I didn't make that sound. I had worse experiences with that subconscious music. Sometimes it's a loud screaming sound, or any other else.
 
Bad things
Dead things
Sad things 
Have to happen
Sometimes...

It Has Been A Lot!

Wow, where should I start? So my comeback to dance class after a month break (sebulan aje dibahas...gimana lebih? Udah jadi buku keleus :D) had been a wild ride. Right away rehearsal for a performance and coordinating an event at the same time. Berto gave me this job from IDF, where I worked as P.I.C for Dance Writing Workshop. My girl IKAN said why am I taking the job if I am so busy? The answer is clear: I need to pay college. Ikan said she can just lend me money and I can focus on my thesis. God, bless this human that is my best friend. That's very kind and thoughtful of her. Anyway, I took the job so I was running 2 events at the same time. One in Cikini, Central Jakarta and one in SOM, South Tangerang. I became an adept Commuter Line user. I no longer mistaken peron 1 with peron 2 and silly things like that, like not knowing which gate I should enter after scanning my card to enter the peron. Duh. Duh 100x. I wasn't particularly on diet but I really didn't want to ea...

What is happiness? It sounds like a snack.

I would, like usually, open this post by saying "Things are crazy". Yes, I don't know are things really crazy or is it just me. I think it's the latter. Life appears as surprises to me. And I act like a door, opening this tunnel, closing another one. I don't feel dull, and I can't say my days have been dull for they are full with challenges. But I have been so alone. This also sounds weird. Since when that I'm not alone? I always pull myself back from any social event. I hang out alone. I guess the last time I had a good time outside the house/office/campus with another human being was the last Saturday in January, so it's a month ago. It is true that if I just ask, I will get people willing to go with me. But I am the pickiest picky pick ever because most of the times when I don't pick, I get bored with dull conversations, or a view of someone watching his/her phone like there's nothing else to see. So all this time I hang out alone. Mos...

yang hilang dan jadi debu

ada sesuatu yang diam-diam kupercaya walau ia hilang ditelan bisingnya Jakarta: Islam ada cara hidup yang sederhana, menawarkan kesadaran untuk mampu mengendalikan kecepatan, dengan disiplin lima kali dalam sehari, dan tidak lebih lama dari basa-basi ada cara bertutur yang tegas dan disetujui tubuh, istighfar membuatku sadar, bahwa yang sakit bisa pulih tasbih menunduk-daguku, bahwa seniman itu sebuah entitas hamdalah hangatkan bahuku, ada yang Maha kendali di atas kendaliku
