Apa yang terjadi padaku akhir-akhir ini.

Ratu Boko, 31 Oktober 2015

“Itu bisa jadi karena tension type headache, Nis. Karena kita banyak kerja kurang istirahat. Kerja fisik, juga kerja pikiran.”

Penjelasan singkat itu aku dapat dari obrolan via Line dengan seorang teman yang baru saja mendapat gelar S.Ked.

Iya, seminggu terakhir aku merasakan sakit di bagian belakang kepala,lebih tepatnya di dekat leher. Awalnya aku mengira karena posisi tidurku yang salah. Tapi sakit kepala ini timbul-tenggelam. Kadang sakit, tapi setelah beberapa jam mereda, lalu sakit lagi. Aku sudah mengira ada yang salah dengan tubuhku. Dan begitu membaca jawaban dari temanku, aku tidak cukup kaget mendengarnya hahaha.

Trusting your feeling.

“It is okay to be sad, happy, angry, scared, worried, doubtful, guilty, disappointed, hate and other emotion. Even, it is okay to be confused with what you felt. You are a human, so it is natural to have emotions (positive and negative). 

The point is not about eliminating them. It is about realizing and accepting them. Yes, just realize and release everything that hold you back. 

Try to recognize and remember the reason behind your emotion. Forgive yourself, forgive your past. Make them your best teacher in life. 
If you can’t do this alone, it is okay to ask people for help. Since the mind is the key of our life, it is important to keep ours positive and “healthy”. 
Because being healthy is not just about the body, but also about mind itself.”

– Lesson learned I got from the Basic Individual Intervention class: Humanistic perspective.

what you need to know when you are 20 year old.

What is your definition about “being productive”?
Some people might say: doing something that earn some money.
Or doing some projects.
Or creating something new.
Or…. Anything else?
This question leads me to write this post.

I never thought that being 20 year-old would be much complicated. 

You are no longer an adolescent. But then, it feels weird to call yourself as an adult because you are too young too be in this category. You still have to do your tasks and roles as an adolescent, plus, your new tasks and roles as an early adult. 

Enough? Not yet. 

These new tasks and new roles in society would successfully create a conflict within yourself.

between responsible and consequences.

Some people say that life is like riding a roller coaster: you could be on the highest, but you could be on the lowest place all of a sudden. 

But for me, life isn’t just about riding (a roller coaster).

I think, life is about how we lead the ride.

Sudah lama saya ingin berbagi cerita tentang obsesi-menjadi-kurus saya di blog.

Iya, siapa sih cewek di dunia ini yang nggak kepengen kelihatan oke di depan kamera-meskipun-hanya-kamera-hape-dan-diunggah-ke-media-sosial?

Nah salah satu cara saya untuk mencapai keinginan saya agar-kelihatan-oke adalah dengan berolahraga dan berdiet.

Akan selalu ada pertanyaan yang muncul dalam pikiran kita yang seringkali tidak dapat kita temukan begitu saja jawabannya. 

Mungkin kita akan menemukan jawabnya setelah kita berusaha mencari.
Mungkin juga tidak: pencarian kita berakhir sia-sia.

Mungkin saja waktu akan memberikan jawab tanpa perlu kita minta, kita hanya perlu sedikit bersabar.
Mungkin juga tidak: waktu kita habis hanya untuk menanti jawab.

Mungkin pula,

we see, then we judge.

“We do not see things as they are, we see things as we do.”

Ada banyak hal yang kita temui tiap harinya. Orang-orang, jalanan, peristiwa, langit, pagi, siang, malam, panas, dingin, lelah, sebal, marah, beban, tanggungan, cemburu, patah hati. Semuanya. 

Begitu banyak.
