for the very first time

bahasa

halooo haloooo post baruuu waah gue lagi rajin update nih haha. sesuai judul, gue mau membahas tentang bahasa yang gue pake di blog ini : bahasa inggris dan bahasa indonesia. kalau kalian rajin baca blog gouweh (gouweh biar makin oke), lo pasti tau kalau gue sering bergonta ganti bahasa, entah bahasa indonesia atau bahasa inggris.

mungkin ada beberapa yang mikir “ichal ngapain sih sok betul pake bahasa inggris keluar negeri aja belum pernah udah pake bahasa inggris segala padahal yang baca blognya juga teman-temannya” dan lain lain dan lain lain. hahahaha belum ada sih yang ngomong langsung :p tapi gue memang punya alasan kenapa gue tidak konsisten dengan bahasa yang gue pake.

alasannya adalaaaaah eng ing eng, mood. terkadang mood gue mau pake bahasa inggris, terkadang juga bahasa indonesia. ini alasan yang ga penting, tapi tak apalah panjang-panjangin postnya hahaha.

alasan lain, tergantung isi postnya. terkadang gue merasa lebih oke pake bahasa inggris, karena (menurut gue) postnya akan lebih oke keren macho syalalala. atau mungkin gue pake bahasa indonesia supaya lebih dalam maknanya dan mudah dimengerti para pembaca.

temen gue ngomong gini “blog lo pake bahasa inggris ntar siapa yang mau baca males ngartiinnya tau chal” intinya dia ngomong kaya begitu. hmm begini ya kawan-kawan gue dari sma udah mulai ngeblog dan notabene temen-temen gue di sma adalah orang yang mudah mengerti bahasa inggris sehingga ngepost bahasa inggris tidak akan dipermasalahkan. gue bukan mau menyombongkan mereka yaa :p

oh ya, filosofi gue suka ngepost pake bahasa inggris, karena gue senang berbahasa inggris (bukan berarti gue menolak berbahasa indonesia ya). di sd, gue punya guru bahasa inggris yang omg asik banget ngajarnya! gue senang setiap dia ngajar ada aja sesuatu yang menyenangkan, ga membosankan! dari situ, gue mulai cinta bahasa inggris. jadi, mulailah gue berbahasa inggris ria!

lo semua ga perlu baca blog gue kalau memang ga mau, tapi (formal ah) saya sangat menghargai orang-orang yang berusaha membaca dan mengerti setiap post saya yang berbahasa inggris, bahkan (mungkin) sampai menggunakan google translate demi mengerti artinya. haha lebay. ya sudah gue mau mandi oh fyi gue ngetik ini sembari mendengarkan lagu alay dari kamar tetangga, grrr.

status update

today i did something that (i think) is quite fun! after i finished my MPK Apresiasi Film midtest, i went back to my campus to attend a design class held by nurani (rohis). well, i didn’t learn something expert there, what i did today was just learning Corel Draw from the basic.

what i learned? those were artistic and paragraph text. i learned to play with those two, making them follow the circle path, connecting the paragraph text, and more.

they said that this program will continue for 1 year, i really wanted to attend this class everytime it’s held, but too bad it’s conflict with MPK Apres. I hope they will change the schedule, i will ask Budy tomorrow haha!

in the class, they gave us a practice to make something called typography. thypography is….. i don’t know wether this is right but i think it’s an art made from alphabets. a b c d e and so on. here an example:

 

the instructor gave us a picture of typography and asked us to make it. it didn’t have to be the same, similar is enough. so here is my first typography!

 

hahaha it’s totally a mess i think. but i don’t feel shy i think it’s still good lol. well let’s play with corel draw :p

childhood stories

okey, this time i want to tell you about things i’ve done when i was a little boy. just some short stories about what i have done in my childlife. maybe it’s fun, sad, boring, or whatever. i just want to share them hehe :p
i inspired by my friend, a girl. She is a girl who is very easy to remember many things she did when she was little, while it’s very hard for me to do that. she often says : “jadi waktu aku kecil itu,” “dulu waktu aku masih kecil,” and so on.  so i try to remember what i’ve done and *TRIIING! i found some, enjoy! :D
me and my family were attending mom’s friend’s marriage party. it was held in a 3 (or 4, i forget) stars hotel. after the party, we went back home. on the way home, my mom said “nanti kalau mau menikah acaranya yang sederhana aja ya” and i replied “ichal memang mau yang sederhana aja, kaya nita (mom’s friend who was helding the party) aja palingan.” “itu sih ga sederhana, itu foya-foya namanya.” “oh iya kah ma? ichal pikir itu biasa aja.” So the conclusion is, i really want to be rich since child, lol.
this is kinda embarassing haha. me and my brother went to the yard near our house to play football with another neighbours. at that time, my position was the keeper (or kipper? whatever :p). i don’t remember wether i could catch the balls or not, but after the game my brother suddenly tore my clothes. i shocked and then cried loudly. my brother and my neighbours confused how to calm me down. i force my brother to bring new clothes for me. so the reason why i cried was because that was my favourite cloth, and because i felt shy. i don’t know why i always felt shy when people see me naked when i was a child haha.
i really love to swim since child. i remember the time mom permitted me to join the swimming club. mom just came from shopping then i kissed her hand (salam), then mom said that she registered me, my brother, and my sister in a swimming club. i was really happy so i did spin my body like a ballerina. saw my reaction, mom said “kenapa ichal ga mama ikutin les balet aja ya?” i just laughed when i heard that. haha it’s really funny if i remember that one!
in my elementary school, every children had someone to pick us up then took us home. most drivers hired were public transportation (angkot) drivers, so of course the car they used were angkot. i hated it, for me it was ugly and “enggak banget.” i always wanted mom to pick me up. so i felt really happy if my mom picked me up from school. ahh i miss that time so much :D
for me, this is very crazy. i can’t imagine a little child could to this. when i was a child, a cartoon titled digimon is very famous. i was addicted to it. one of digimon accesories is digivice. it’s like tamagochi but in digivice form. i really wanted it, but my mom never bought it for me, even when i was having birthday. so i decided to steal my mom’s money (WOOOOW). how i did that? i was still joining the swimming club and my mom always entrust the monthly payment with me. so i didn’t pay it and used it to buy the digivice! hahaha what a thief :p
my father always brought us to Timezone every weekends. he gave us some money then we played there. while we played, he and my mom shopped or just walked around. the point of it was they wanted no one to disturb them so they let us play as much as we like.
you have to know that my bedtime when i was in elementary is eight o’clock! or nine o’clock if i wanted to watch something but it was really seldom, maybe just in saturday. even when i already in high school, i often sleep at ten o’clock! my mom angry and said “jam sepuluh kok udah tidur sih? sana belajar dulu!” but i don’t care and just went to sleep because i already felt sleepy lol.
this is maybe the reason why i love listening to girls song such as mariah carey and beyonce. mom often played celine dion’s songs. she played them when she cleaned the house, relaxing, or while she drove the car, almost of the time. i often hear them too and i think those were good, so i never angry if mom played those, because i enjoyed them too.

well, those are some of my childhood stories. i’m sure there are still many if i try harder to remember, but i think this is enough hehe. why don’t you make one? it is so much fun to remember how ridiculous or how cool you are when you just a little child :D

kalau memang cinta itu ada

kalau memang cinta itu ada

saya rasa datangnya dari orang tua saya

kalau memang cinta itu ada

saya rasa teman-teman saya yang menciptakannya

kalau memang cinta itu ada

seharusnya saya tidak perlu mempertanyakannya

 

 

 

 

(bagus ga? sebenarnya ga ada hubungannya sama kehidupan sosial saya hahaha :p just a random thought)

introvert

hmm. gue seharusnya kaget dengan diri gue sekarang. karena gue yang sekarang adalah sosok yang jauh lebih terbuka dari gue smp dan sma.

gue tersadar semenjak teman terbaik saya, tiara ayuwardani berkata:

“iya ya, padahal kita duduk sebelahan selama setahun tapi aku ga tau apa apa tentang kamu.”

entah siapa yang salah, antara tiara yang sangat cuek atau gue yang memang susah membuka diri. hal terpenting, itu berarti ga ada sedikitpun hal yang dia tau tentang gue.

kenapa gue jadi lebih terbuka ya? akhir akhir ini banyak cerita yang gue lontarkan, banyak isi hati yang gue curhatkan, banyak hal yang gue buka.

semua itu membuat orang orang lebih tau tentang gue. baiknya gue, dan juga jeleknya gue. sebenarnya gue ga masalah sih dengan tersibaknya beberapa sifat jelek gue haha.

tapi ternyata menjadi terbuka membuat masalah-masalah baru muncul. masalah-masalah yang kalau gue tutup tidak akan tercipta.

gue sering merasa kesal tiap teman gue bertanya “kenapa” dan “ada apa.” karena menurut gue mereka hanya mencampuri masalah gue.

tapi akhir-akhir ini pula gue menepis pikiran itu. kalaupun tidak cerita, gue akan bilang “gue ga bisa cerita”, masih lebih baik dari bilang” ga ada apa apa” tapi dengan muka merengut dan nada suara rendah.

ya, mungkin memang lebih baik jadi introvert, tapi kehidupan gue sekarang ‘memaksa’ gue untuk jadi orang terbuka.

jadi inilah gue, dengan masalah-masalah yang mengiringi hidup gue. yang membentuk sifat-sifat gue. sifat-sifat baik dan juga jelek. gue harap kalian semua terima :)

semoga kamu mengerti

saya capek

benar benar capek

capek terus begini

terus berusaha bersikap biasa

berusaha menganggap semua sama saja

 

tapi kamu tidak

kamu menganggap saya berbeda

bukan sekedar orang biasa

lebih dari itu

 

mungkin saya yang salah

hingga membuat hal ini ada

dan saya tidak bisa menyalahkan kamu

kamu tidak punya salah apa apa

 

saya hanya capek

harus terus berpura-pura

titik
