The Note

I always believe that the skies is not empty. Even tough it may seems like one, but we always knew that there's stars, clouds, and even rainbow in it. It goes the same way when you met people in streets. Their face may seems empty and lifeless but you'll never know if they're actually a real life super heroes.

I don't believe in super heroes. I mean, they wear their underwears outside their pants and flying anywhere wearing it. Idiot.

But I believe that everyone's a super hero. Everyone can be a hero in they're own way. For example, when you help yourselves going trough a trouble you never planned to involved in... That's when you know you're a hero, for yourselves.

Because you will never know how strong you are, until being strong is the only choice.

Sometimes, I really want to switch place with bunnies. I mean, look at them. They're cute. They're lovely. Everyone's like them. And they can bite their cage as long as they want without being scolded by anyone.

My short sixteen life experience has taught me, you have to be particularly the same with your surroundings. Or else, people with consider you as a freak or a stranger. In sociology, it usually called by confrontation. People are always trying to be the same with others, so that... they're safe. No bully, no hate, no gossip, no silly mean things.

But where's the fun part? The best part of being teenager is being yourself. As original as you really can. Who cares if people called you a geek because you really enjoyed stayin' for hours in libraries? Who cares if people called you fake for always smilin' to everyone? Who cares if people called you a freak because you still like watchin' Disney Movies?

Who cares? Who cares about what people think about you?

They won't bother if you're falling over plane or somethin.

So why would you bother them?

Why would I bother them?

So stay flawless like a unicorn. Life is too short to stress yourselves with people who don't even deserve to be an issues in your life. Live life, be young, be happy. Spend your life loving someone who loves you back.

Spend your time reading those books. Like Matilda. No matter if people callin' you a nerd. Someday, you'll own a nice and famous magazine and those peeps will be your employee. ;-p

Watch movies, play games, play with your dolls, talk with nyan cat, anything that makes you happy. Life is too short just for spending your whole life pretending to be different person.

I do believe in magic. I do believe that God had written scenarios for all of us. But we're the editor of God's scenario. We can change some of them if we want to. Yet, it'll not going to change if you're not going to write it by yourselves.

I do believe in magic. I do believe in fairies and pixies. I do believe that sometimes all of us could make our dreams come true. Even if our dreams is riding unicorn in the middle of pink savannah.

I do believe in magic. I do believe in love in the first sight. I do believe in true love. I do believe that even if 100 people in this world don't like us, but at least we still have 1000 people on earth this earth loving us.

I do believe in magic. I don't need to be a fairy with wand and wings to find fairytale in reality. Because this life is a fairytale, only if you write this real-life fairytale with the right characters. ;-)

Written' by a such riotic pixie, in her dreadful apprehensive feelings. 

Dix-Quatre!

Hi there readers!:-D

Hari ini Senin, hari ke delapan belas dari bulan ketiga di tahun dua ribu tiga belas. 

Kay, bukan itu sih yang mau gue ceritain di post gue kali ini. Sebenernya post gue kali ini lebih kepada sebuah pelampiasan stress terhadap ujian tengah semester Rabu lusa. Whoaaa it's coming in two days and i haven't prepare anything. Yet.

Satu dari banyak hal yang gue pelajari selama kehidupan gue di SMA:

Real friends never let you do stupid things, neither it's alone or together.

Sahabat sejati itu ngga akan ngebiarinin lo melakukan hal-hal bodoh, entah itu sendiri, ataupun bareng-bareng.

Let's see, terkadang gue sendiri muak dengan kehidupan SMA. You know, the coaster. 

That "damn, i'm soooooo stupid," moment when you get junk score.

Or that "screw highschool" moment when you get something really bad in your day. (for example, when some seniors tease you. Even when they not mean to)

Or when you feel like you got the entire zoo on your stomach when you're...in love? (perhaps:-p)

Yah, moment-moment penuh warna kayak gitu yang gue yakin tiap-tiap dari kita pasti ngerasain betapa susahnya survive di sebuah belantara bernama SMA. And as for me, selalu ada "rumah" buat gue untuk kembali pulang di SMA. Yep, a place that feels like a home.

Dan tempat itu, adalah kelas. Tempat dimana seluruh penghuninya udah kenal satu sama lain. Udah tau sifat masing-masing. Udah kenal trik masing-masing waktu nyontek pas pelajaran geografi. (biasanya jawabannya ditulis di meja:-p) dan bahkan udah kenal jajanan favorit masing-masing. Well, here they are, classe Dix-Quatre! (X-4)

Kay, pertama gue mau ngenalin manusia ini.

Hanna Syukria, 15 tahun.

Temen sebangku, hobi dandan bareng.

:-p

Gue inget banget pertama kali ketemu Hanna. Di koperasi sekolah, pas lagi liburan sekolah waktu lagi mau beli LKS sama seragam. Romantis banget kan. Dan sejak saat itu gue dan Hanna layaknya twins, yang kemana-mana bareng dan gak lupa berbagi bedak dan sisir. 

Yang ini Novi. Si arab kece yang kalo disekolah sengaja

dandan kayak homeless person padahal diluar sekolah

gayanya udah kaya Kim Kardashians.

Pertama kali masuk X4, gue kenalan dulu sama dia. Sebelum kenal sama Hanna malah. Pertamanya, gue duduk bareng Novi. Tapi mungkin karena unsur Yin dan Yang kita kurang bersatu jadilah gue duduk bersama Hanna:-p

 Sometimes, kalo lagi bosen belajar dengan narsisnya 

kita biasa foto-foto di kelas.

Yang paling kiri namanya Aulia, biasanya sih dipanggil Aul.

Biar asik.

Naahhh!!! Ini dia nih!

Yang kiri bawah namanya Bella.

Bella ini cewek yang kece banget menurut gue. Soalnya, dibalik namanya yang kemayu (Isabella Melati loh namanya~) dia adalah sosok yang tomboy dan asik banget. Biar gitu, dia care banget sama yang namanya temen. Kalo kata anak sekarang sih solid. Solid brayyy~ (apalagi pas pelajaran geografi sama matematika. Yakaaan!)

Ada ribuan foto gue sama Hanna.

Salahsatunya ini!

Ini judulnya "Kabur Pelajaran Bu Lelly" Well technically nggak kabur beneran kok. Dilla bukan murid yang hobi cabut:-( jadi ceritanya, waktu itu guru kimia sekaligus wali kelas, Bu Lelly nggak masuk. Jadilah gue, Hanna (paling kiri atas) Fathia (frame 3 diatas), Aul (frame 4 diatas), Naufal a.ka Kuple (paling kiri bawah) dan Sidiq (frame 2 bawah) dengan santainya foto-foto narsis di koridor sekolah. Dan voila, inilah hasilnya!

Bella-Aul-Dilla-Hanna.

<3 i="">

Ini Mbot. Nama benernya sih M.Taufan Faturrachman.

Tapi dipanggilnya Mbot. Ya...biar asik.

Malaikat-nya X-4....intinya X-4 love you Mboooot!

Oiya, Fyi, gue sekelas lagi sama Isan. Temen  dari SD-SMP dan sekarang SMA.

-_- 

 Kiri: Isan, temen seperjuangan dari SD.

Kanan: Kiki, tukang jailin Dilla.

Kiri: Novi, Kanan: Kina.

Duo arab paling gokil seangkasa raya.

Ten four girlssss!

I love you guys....:-*

Ini judulnya bosen pas pelajaran seni. 

Sekian.

Sebenernya masih banyakkkkkkkk banget yang mau gue ceritain dari X4. Tentang April si spg Bali Ratih, Reeva si saingan ranking, Wowo si malaikat waktu ulangan kimia, Garry-Sheila si pasangan komik, Sagita yang mirip Aurel....semuanya deh!!! Tapi sekarang, gue mesti balik belajar ekonomi karena...

UTS IN TWO DAYSSS! HELP.

INSOMNIA 2013!

Howdy readersssss!

How's things going lately? Mine? Not bad sih. Pretty much super malahan. I had lots of joys in my highschool times. Bener kata orang dulu.  

"Masa terindah itu masa-masa SMA"

Yapppp!!! Suatu kesenangan tersendiri bisa pake putih abu-abu dan ketawa bareng temen-temen. Yah, i bet you know how amazing that feel is. Like you know, the high school coaster.

Friends.

Teachers.

Math.

Chemistry.

Cool peeps.

Mean peeps.

Fall in love.

Dreams. 

And as for me, ada satu hal lagi unsur penting dalam kehidupan SMA gue.

SINEMA 60

SINEMA60? Apaan tuh? Semacam bioskop baru kah?

Errr no no peeps. Ini adalah singkatan dari SINEAS MUDA ENAM PULUH. (Fyi, gue  masuk SMA 60 Jakarta. Yap, basis Kemang Timur. :-$) Eskul sinematografi yang gue ikutin sejak bulan Juli kemaren. Jadiii kalo udah diitung-itung udah sekitar.....7 bulanan ya? Eh? Bener nggak sih? Yah sekitar segitulah.

Walaupun baru hitungan bulan, gue menemukan banyak hal baru dari eskul ini. Sinema60 bener-bener bukan cuma sekedar eskul. Sinema 60 itu.... keluarga. 

Dannnn di Sinema60 ini gue bisa menyalurkan pikiran-pikiran gue dalam bentuk naskah film pendek. Yeaaaah, mayor gue di Sinema60 adalah script-writer. And i freakin' in love with this job. Pinky swear! Walaupun kadang... gue merangkap jadi Produser. Ada satu orang yang sangat berjasa (dan memorable) selama gue ikut eskul sinema ini. Yap, mentor gue. But i consider him as my brother because.... he is our brother :-p 

Kak Septa Yudhistira Pratama.

Biasanya gue manggil dia "Kak Eta"

He taught me lotssss of things. Not just about cinematography, but also about life. But, gue bakal cerita itu lain kali. Sekarang, gue mau cerita tentang salah satu event Sinema60 yang paling bombastis.

INSOMNIA 2013

Yeah well, please jangan bilang Insomnia itu penyakit tidur. Insomnia 2013 adalah event festival film yang digelar Sinema60. Insomnia itu kependekan dari Indie Short Movie Festival. Tahun ini, tema yang kita ambil adalah children alias anak-anak!

Well, excited banget gue dan teman-teman buat event ini. Dan salutnya, event ini udah tingkat nasional alias yang ikutan bukan dari Jakarta aja. Tapi juga dari daerah-daerah di luar Indonesia. Which is meaaaaan, kita harus nyari dana yang lebih juga. 

Sampe-sampe, kita mesti berjibaku di jalanan untuk galang dana demi INSOMNIA 2013! Kita kompakan nempelin stiker Insomnia2013 di pipi. Dan galang dana yang kita lakuin bukan cuma sekali dua kali. Tapi berkali-kali. Cara galang dananya pun macem-macem, dari mulai jualan di car free day sampe garage sale.

Nyari orang yang mau liat proposal Insomnia. Anyone?

Selain itu, gue juga nyari dana dengan dateng ke beberapa perusahaan sambil nenteng-nenteng proposal. Kebetulan, gue jadi anak dana dan otomatis urusan cari mencari dana dipegang oleh divisi gue. Dari mulai keluar masuk salah satu stasiun radio, telfon sana sini sampe puter otak buat nyari dana seefektif mungkin dikerjain oleh divisi dana. ( i love youuuu orang-orang dana!:-p)

Waktu berbulan-bulan untuk persiapan bener-bener nggak kerasa... dan mendadak hari itu dateng juga. 16 Februari 2013. Yeah! Insomnia 2013! Lokasi acaranya di Pusat Perfilman Haji Usmar Ismail, Kuningan. And you know what, rumah gue di daerah di Cinere dan....mesti dateng jam setengah enam subuh. 

Jadilah gue bangun jam setengah empat dan on the way jam empat bareng sahabat-sahabat seperjuangan yang rumahnya sama-sama jauh. Vana dan Dinda:* 

Sialnya, karena Vana bagian konsumsi, dia mesti nungguin kirimin snack dari orang katering di sekolah. Ceritanya panjang... intinya, kita terdampar di 7-11 deket 60 jam setengah enam subuh demi nungguin snack:'D

Tapi pengorbanan itu nggak seberapa dengan pengorbanan temen-temen lain yang sampe nginep di PPHUI. Sebenernya gue juga mau...cuma gimana ya.... *blush*

Left to Right:

Me, Laras, Dinda.

Creative Division on Board!

Suasana di dalem ruang Sinema!

Jam 10 pagi,  acara Screening pun mulai! Dua puluh sekolah dari seluruh Indonesia bertarung kreativitas di Insomnia 2013. Jujur, filmnya keren-keren banget. Dan one of my favorite is "Kontras" from SMAN 28. Keren dan bermakna banget filmnya. Thumbs up!

Dannn setelah screening, kita ada awarding night yang mulai jam setengah delapan. Take a look by yourself ajadeh. It's too great to be describe:p 

Welcome to Insomnia!

We fight for this!

The Crowds!

The Crew with Mr. Hatta Rajasa, Mr. Hengky Kurniawan and Mr. Lucky Hakim.

Yap, kira-kira begitulah keseruan Insomnia tahun 2013. Salah satu momen yang paling bikin merinding adalah waktu kita tos bareng dengan yell sinema60. "We ride together, we fight together, INSOMNIA for life!"  Semoga tahun 2014 bisa lebih baik dengan gue sebagai wakil ketua Insomnia 2014.

Eh apa? Wakil ketua?

Iya hehe. Wish me luck guysss!!! 

Ps: WE RIDE TOGETHER, WE FIGHT TOGETHER, SINEMA60 FOR LIFE!

A Story about Bebek, Itik, Soang&Ayam.

Hi there! I'm back in the (almost) last day of this December (and this 2012!). Whoop whooooop, i'm wickedly exciting! Even 2012 left lots of nice memories, tough. I wont write about my new year resolutions, because just like the last year....surely will be fail. No doubt.

Well, sooooo I want to write about my best girls. (I have so many good friends, though. But this three idiots (yet pretty, smooch) are my super duper mega boom best-girls). We describing ourselves as Kelunggas. Keluarga Unggas (Bebek, Soang, Itik, Ayam) And here they are... 

Eh salah foto. Ulang ulang.

Nah ini yang benernya. 

Adey the Ayam!

Adhia Rana Kayungyun a.ka Adey! I wrote about her before, click this! Sorry for the ugly cloud border, Dey. But it's cute, isn't? 

And introducing... Siti Ladia Fatima! (or Ladia for short) To see more about this sweetie pie, click me!

Nyah. Pardon me. 

Kiss!

Ladia the Itik!

And the last one, the girl with super long name... Malahayati Laksamana Kuta Alam Siregar a.ka Mala! (remember this?)

Cantiknya...:p

 Normal version{}

Mala the Soang!

And me, Dilla the Bebek.

So, we've been a best friends since 7th grader and now we're in our first year in high school. Well, it's almost four years but I never getting bored of them. We fight sometimes...but hey, sisters fight. But they are still a sister, right? 

First year of Junior High, grade 7 WS. Rendra.

Okay, let me explain something here. It's not like we're "kerdus" (kerudung dusta, like please) or something. In Junior High, we have to wear vail in school time. But then, we realized that we're not ready to take our responsibility as a moslem woman. It's a big one though. 

Like other movies about friendship, each of us have their own dreams. And i remember as good as i remember mine.

Adey: dream to be a famous movie director.

Ladia: to be a doctor for child is her dream.

Mala: well....fashion buyers or fashion designer, perhaps? She have many dreams in fashion and beauty as I remember.

And me? I have lots of dreams... but I want to write. As a script writer, novelist, journalist, or anything related to writing. 

Cibodas, November 2011.

We understands each other like we understands ourselves. 

We understands that Adey is our talking machine, she can't stop telling us about every single thing that happens in earth.

We understands that Ladia is our princess delicate, she's a real feminime and fragile. She's a girl with an angel's heart.

We understands that Mala is our Fashion Police. She's like a walking New Look. She knew every latest fashion news and can't stand to see a discount without buying anything.

I understand you girls, as good as i'm understanding myself.

Our Polaroids, taken last year before Junior High graduation.

And even we're walking on our own way now, believe me girls, someday we'll living in our dream life. Our children will play together under the falling leaves in Central Park. And we're watching them from distance, laughing and smiling while reading this blogpost. 

After graduation, finally.

I love you girls! You will always be my Soang, Itik, and Ayam. {}
