No, I don't have anything to whine
No, I don't have anything to talk about
No, I don't have anything to share
But, I do have this abundance of feeling
Feeling with no name
Feeling of something
Feeling that makes me blissful
Life itself, has surprised me with lots of surprises
sadness, happiness, silliness, gratefulness
It surprises me so much
Leave me no time to feel anxious
Blissful, grateful, and thoughtful.

dua kata, yang selalu dihindari.

Selamat tinggal.
Dua kata yang seharusnya mudah untuk diucap tapi kenyataannya selalu saja sulit untuk diucapkan.
I have to say good bye to you, directly or indirectly. This two words will never said to you. Even you’re in front of me.
Mengucap selamat tinggal tidak semudah menutup buku yang sudah selesai kita baca. Hidup bagaikan lembaran kertas putih yang kita coret setiap harinya.
Mengucap selamat tinggal ini merupakan hal yang sulit bagi saya. Harus mengakhiri bagian cerita tentang kamu meskipun tidak pernah sekalipun ada andil dari kamu untuk ikut mencoret lembaran kertas putih milik saya ini.
Saya memang belum akan pergi ke dalam tahapan hidup yang lebih serius tapi saya harus mulai memutuskan sesuatu dan harus rela menjalani keputusan itu dan harus dengan rela pula berpisah dengan kamu. saya dan kamu memang tidak pernah memulai suatu hubungan yang istimewa. Tidak ada niatan lebih dari sekedar berteman biasa sejak pertama kali kita bertemu, tapi bagi saya kamu berbeda.
Semua berawal dari canda tawa, cerita dan berbagi pengalaman. Saya pikir kamu hanya bagaikan pemandangan indah dalam perjalanan hidup saya yang sempat pahit dan kamu sebagai penawar rasa manis yang membuat hidup saya kembali tersenyum, tertawa dan jantung saya berdenyut lagi. Seperti kembali hidup di masa tumbuh sebagai remaja yang mulai terpikat dengan lawan jenis.
Destiny, here I am
Giving all my days, I never felt so in love before
Forever is not enough
Nothing can tear us apart
To be at your side, forever
To be in your heart, forever
To be at your side, forever
To be in your heart, forever
Destiny, here I am
Forever is not enough
Kamu membawa perasaan itu kembali kepada saya, kamu pula yang membawa saya kepada mimpi-mimpi indah, kamu juga yang membuat saya merangkai harapan. Kamu juga yang membuat perasaan rindu yang tertahankan bagaikan sakit disengat semut merah, perih, gatal, kamu juga yang membuat simpul senyuman sebelum saya naik ke atas kamar kosan dan menutup pintu dengan senyuman, kamu juga yang membuat hari-hari saya bingung harus memakai baju apa, kamu juga yang membuat saya bersikap aneh meskipun telah saya berusaha keras untuk tetap bersikap biasa, kamu membuat dunia saya berputar kala itu di waktu yang sempit. Kamu membuat perasaan menunggu seperti menanti jatuhnya salju di kota Jakarta yang panas. Tidak mungkin.
Menunggu dan berharap tentang kamu memang seperti mengharapkan hujan di kemarau panjang atau seperti melihat bintang di malam hari dengan mata telanjang di keramaian lampu ibu kota. Tidak mungkin terjadi di kehidupan nyata tapi bisa terjadi dalam mimpi dan mimpi itu terjadi indah dan manis. Harus diakui menunggu dan berharap membuat hati ini lelah dan sakit. Ya, sakit dan lelah memang saya buat sendiri, seandainya bisa berkompromi dengan Tuhan lebih awal, saya tidak ingin ini terjadi tapi bisakah saya mengelak apabila Tuhan berkehendak?!. Kemudian datang dia di hadapan saya, menarik mata dan hati, tergoda ingin mencoba kembali apa yang selama ini hilang dalam kamus hidup saya. Awalnya takut untuk mencoba dan memulai. Takut terulang kembali rasa sakit di masa lalu, kegagalan dulu membayangi. Pada akhirnya saya mencoba tanpa ikatan, jalani saja dulu tanpa harus tahu kemana hubungan ini akan berlabuh. Harus saya akui, bukan hanya rasa sakit dan kegagalan di masa lalu yang membayangi, ada hal lain yang lebih kuat dari itu.
Bagaimana jika kamu datang dan mengakui bahwa ada sesuatu di luar pertemanan ini. Bagaimana jika kamu datang dan ingin kita mencoba lebih dari berteman. Bagaimana, bagaimana dan bagaimana?. Lalu saya berpikir, bodohnya memiliki pikiran seperti itu. Sebenarnya saya cukup tahu kamu seperti apa, cukup mengenal kamu seperti apa. Bahwa tidak mungkin saya dan kamu bersama lebih dari sekedar teman biasa. Apa kamu obsesi saya yang tidak atau belum terpenuhi??. Saya belum tahu.
Saya harus memutuskan sesuatu. Saya akan mencoba dengan dia. dia yang baik, dia yang sabar, dia yang sayang, dia yang mau mencoba berkali-kali dengan saya meski saya telah menyakiti hatinya karena saya masih mempunyai hati untuk kamu, dia yang ada di saat saya sedih, senang, marah, hingga sakit. Saya harus meneruskan hidup saya.
Saya yang perlahan menerima kenyataan bahwa diantara saya dan kamu tidak akan pernah melewati keadaan lebih dari teman biasa. Tidak ada tempat spesial untuk saya dalam diri kamu, berbanding terbalik dengan saya yang memiliki tempat spesial untuk kamu di hati saya. Ada di bagian hati saya, di dalam sana, dan berharap selalu ada. Namun suatu saat nanti harus saya tutup bagian itu dan harus dengan rela saya mengucap selamat tinggal. Harus saya kurangi kadar perasaan saya terhadap kamu.
I love you but it’s not so easy
To make you here with me
I want to touch and hold you forever
But you’re still in my dream
Kamu yang tidak pernah bisa saya rangkul, kamu yang tidak bisa saya peluk dan cium keningmu, kamu yang tidak pernah saya bisa temani dalam suka dan duka, kamu yang tidak pernah bisa saya temani ketika kamu sakit, kamu yang tidak pernah bisa saya temani ketika kamu terbaring lelah di tempat tidurmu. Kamu yang tidak pernah bisa saya temani di kala sedih melanda, kamu yang tidak pernah saya bisa siapkan sarapan dan makan malam. Kamu, kamu, kamu, kamu yang tidak akan pernah bisa berdiri di samping saya.
And I can’t stand to wait your love is coming to my life
Never thought that I would so strong
Stuck on you and wait so long
Kamu yang saya ingin rengkuh dalam dekapan, kamu yang selalu menari bebas di dalam pikiran saya, kamu yang membuat air mata ini jatuh perih ketika kepergianmu ke benua seberang. Saya harap kamu bisa mengerti perasaan saya, ketika malam itu saya mengungkapkannya. Bisakah kamu mengerti perasaan saya? Bahwa perasaan ini (mungkin) bukan perasaan selewat, bukan perasaan biasa, bukan pula perasaan kosong, bukan perasaan main-main. Meskipun sadar posisi saya. Saya tidak akan pernah bisa menyamai seseorang yang (pernah) ada di hati kamu.
Walau bagaimanapun setiap orang di lingkungan saya berusaha meyakini bahwa kamu hanya sebatas obsesi belaka yang belum bisa saya penuhi, ada hal di luar batas nalar dan luar batas kata-kata yang tidak bisa diungkapkan bagaimana perasaan saya ini. Kamu membuat saya menulis kembali, kamu menjadi ide dan inspirasi tulisan saya, kamu menjadi sebuah api yang menyala di setiap tulisan sederhana yang saya tulis, kamu menjadi sebuah simpul emosi yang hidup di setiap tulisan saya. Saya bukan penulis handal, saya juga bukan seorang yang pandai bermain dan merangkai kata tapi ada perasaan, emosi dan jiwa yang hidup di setiap barisan kata-kata yang saya rangkai dengan sederhana. Kamu yang membuat saya jadi seperti ini. Meskipun sekali lagi, saya sadar bahwa tidak akan pernah ada tempat spesial bagi saya di hidup kamu tapi saya akan tetap seperti ini terhadap kamu.
And I can’t stand to wait till night is coming to my life
And I still have a time to break a silence
When you love someone
Just be brave to say
That you want him to be with you
Saya tidak akan pergi kemana-mana, jika kamu mencari saya. Saya akan ada disini untuk kamu jika kamu membutuhkan saya meskipun saya tahu bahwa kamu tidak pernah dan berusaha untuk tidak bergantung dan membutuhkan orang lain dalam hidup kamu. saya tetap disini untuk kamu tapi, berat hati saya harus mengucap selamat tinggal jika waktu sudah tiba. Waktu dimana saya sudah benar-benar tidak bisa lagi berbagi hati dengan kamu, waktu dimana saya harus melepas kamu pergi, waktu dimana saya harus bersama dia dalam sebuah ikatan. Waktu dimana saya sudah memiliki dan dimiliki dan dijaga ikatan Tuhan. Seandainya semua bisa saya katakan, seandainya semua bisa saya habiskan semua. Seandainya saja saya tidak pernah bertemu kamu, maka akan lain ceritanya. Tidak, tidak pernah sekalipun terlintas di pikiran saya menyesali keberadaan kamu di hidup saya. Kamu memang tidak seindah pemandangan danau segara anak dilihat dari puncak rinjani, tapi kamu berarti bagi saya. Kamu membuat cerita hidup saya menarik dan setidaknya kamu sudah tahu akan perasaan saya ini.
Jika Tuhan berkehendak antara saya dan kamu, maka waktu akan datang jika tidak maka waktu juga yang akan menunjukkan alasannya. Jadi, saat ini saya ingin mengucap selamat tinggal sementara. Kamu tidak perlu mengetahui itu, karena perlahan, alam dengan sendirinya akan memberi tahu dengan jalannya sendiri. Sekali lagi jika Tuhan berkehendak untuk saya dan kamu, alam juga dengan sendirinya akan memberi jalan.
When you hold your love
Don’t ever let it go
Or you will lose your chance
To make your dream come true
Saya dan kamu memiliki jalan hidup masing-masing, kini mari saling menikmati kemana petualangan hidup ini membawa kita sampai pada akhirnya kita tahu dimana akan berlabuh. Jika saya dan kamu bisa bertemu di pelabuhan yang sama maka saya bersyukur, jika tidak saya tetap bersyukur. Selalu ada alasan dibalik semua peristiwa dan petualangan hidup saya dan kamu. setidaknya kamu sudah tahu bagaimana saya terhadap kamu. jika ada waktu saya ingin mencium kamu, sekedar ingin tahu tentang perasaan saya ini.
Its not a message from a wise person but anonymously said that it all start with a kiss. When you kiss then you’ll know where you going afterwards. And others will said, you can also start with a hug, there you’ll know is he or she will be the person you can count on or not.
Faithful dreams
Baby, your all that I want to be here
Cause every time I close my eyes you’re always being around in my mind
And if tears are down in my arms, you’ll around me
Don’t you see, you’re heal my heart
From the pain
Can’t you see how, you’re holding my mind
So please understand me
Can’t you feel hoe
I’m living my life without you
So please don’t you leave me here
Baby, you’re all that I want to be hold
Cause you’re not in my side
You’re always spinning around in my mind
Untuk kamu disana.
“I’ll walk I live with my decision
to forget you…”

Krisis PD.
Cling... (email notification sound).
I finally have my feed back for my first project on my study in television documentary production. Maybe posting the feed back is not a good idea but i think its a better way to release the suffer and pain in my head.I need a hint or a way out to find any solution to deal with my situation. Some might say i am exaggerating or over dramatic about my condition and now i am getting more concerns with what others think about me and my ideas.
My "dramatic" problems right now is with how to develop a proper narratives story applied to the three stage act and finding the proper premise. Damn! how i hate those words. The more i think about it the more weight i carried on my shoulder. And, so on and on, i can't seem to work in structurally order and developing my creatives ideas. Or maybe, i am not that creative enough to work in this area. Or maybe i don't read or see enough references to engage more with my study and things that related to my focus area of work and future plan. Yeah, seems that i have a clear future plans. To be honest, i don't have a proper future plans, maybe i am no good at anything. Crap!.
Enough with the bluff. Here it is my feed back on my film follows with feed back for my self critical evaluation essay.
Tutors Comment:
Project:
You have a number of challenges that you need to consider. Some you are aware of, others perhaps need pointing out to you. You have a challenge your subject in the first place in that there is a question mark about why him and his family. What is there about your main character's life or situation that you want to tell a story about and why now? I am convinced that you did not spend enough time choosing an appropriate person with a story to tell or in which you could see a clear story. Casting is as important in a documentary film as it is in a fiction film. Nevertheless, a number of interesting things are alluded to in the interview with your chosen subject - such as the challenges around being a Muslim in Britain or the challenges of raising his three sons in the Muslim faith when living in Britain. However, you take neither of these potentially interesting themes and develop them into a coherent narrative. Your character talks in vague terms and is allowed to do this and your visuals and events neither build on this or support them. Your shots seem arbitrary, repetitive and seem to have no function. They are not part of a structured approach to telling a story, nor do they reveal anything specific that is pertinent to your underlying theme or narrative. Nor have you set the wider context that you briefly touch on in your evaluation. The qualify of what you have shot, and the quality of your sound, is far short of what I would expect at this stage in your development. Shots are often out of focus, composition seems very uncertain and there seems little consistency in what you are shooting. I'm afraid the films comes across as unprepared and severely under researched - something you acknowledge in your evaluation. I know you can do better! Having said all of this, I accept that you have learned a lot and that you have to some degree identified some things that you know you need to develop.
Critical Evaluation Essay:
While your description of the process is expansive and you have discussed some of the practical challenges well, identifying some things you could have done better, you have not really summarised what you have learned and how you are going to move forward on the basis of this learning. Importantly, you have not given us andy critical context, neither in the form of theories or critical writings, or in the form of the influences of other films and filmmakers. (You only have two brief references in your bibliography and filmography combined) I appreciate that you have discussed the struggles you have had getting to grasp with the story an narrative of this project and have highlighted the challenges you had, but it is important for reflexive piece like this , that we get a sense of your thoughts on the final outcome and what you would seek to do differently next time. You also talk about certain things that are irrelevant, almost excuses, which you must avoid.
And that is my feed back for my first assignment on Creative Development Project module. The result is I can't really develop my creative ideas focusing on developing the narratives story on the subject i am working on. Sure and true that i am well unprepared and under researched and yet again the habit that i had is mentioning some of irrelevant things to the project which my Tutor mentioned as "excuses". Yes, totally right, i hide behind my excuses, defending myself with it, which i know is just going to make me more the same as before, showing that i haven't not grown well, with my study and personality growth. What a shame!
And now, i am blaming myself of what i did and feel really, really embarrassed of it. What should i do?. Ah!, i already know what i should do. Work my ass off, don't over think and just do it!
Next problem is that i am losing my confidence and questioning about the ability that i have. Will i ever be success on this? or at least will i ever be good at this?.
"MANJA SIH LO PET!!!! DICEKOKKIN WAKTU ITU, KARENA ADA GW. MASA IYA, SELAMA JALAN BARENG SM GW, LO GA BELAJAR APA-APA?"

dalam diam.
Dalam diam aku memperhatikan.
Dalam diam aku mengungkap rasa.
Dalam diam aku mencari celah.
Dalam diam aku mencari riuh.
Dalam diam aku merindu.
Dalam diam aku menutup mata.
Ada sekilas bayangan.
Sepintas senyuman di malam itu.
Ketika tertawa bersama akan sebuah lagu.
Teringat masa lalu.
Mengingat itu memberi senyuman kecil, ketika aku merenung di dalam bus.
Aku rindu riuh.
Aku rindu yang kusendiri tak tahu apa yang kurindu tetapi aku tahu pasti aku merindu.
Mungkin, merindu.
Aku menyerah, mencari celah.
Kali ini, saatnya aku menunggu, yang kusendiri tak tahu apa yang kutunggu.
Ada ruang kosong penuh rasa yang ingin diasah.
Ingin aku berbagi dan memberi kasih ini tanpa pamrih.
Tuhan, kenapa hari ini bersedih?
Jangan hujan di esok hari.
Jangan datang mendung.
Biarkan matahari meraja esok meski didera angin dingin.

a confessions to make
So, winter is finally slowly gone and spring is just around the corner (hopefully) and i just did lots of things that sounds really miserable. Well, people might think that i am a loser or just a loner stranded in another continent hoping to get a clean slate of life and yet still stuck on the old habit. What is new is that i drank a couple of cheap white wine and a british tobacco and enjoying a very fast internet, keep on watching free films on internet without any interrupting from a buffering session, not like in my country though. Which is very amusing at the moment, but there comes a time when i finally realise that i have been procrastinating shit, i mean stuffs that need to be done. let's say my school stuff which i reckon i need to be out more doing some research which i haven't done it at all.
I suppose the weather is encourages me to stay in bed all day wondering what it feels like to have a lot of things to do, just like when i was working back home. Lots of deadline, lots of research which seems more real life. But, then i do acknowledge that some of people just jealous with what i have now and yet i feel so guilty about what i am doing. its like i don't have brain to work or think which i really need it at the moment. its like i am losing the ability to work on something, producing something that hopefully can inspire, motivate or at least people who's watching it can be informed by what i produced. I just being a totally shit.
My two main project which i did it on my first semester doesn't get a good feed back from the way i expected but hey, in other side, its what i am here for. i am learning, in the process of being a better journalist, filmmaker, writer, screenwriter, director (if that is so appropriate to say for me at the moment) or whatever you called it in these days. somehow, the feed back i did get its like a self reflection which i sort of already know and i knew i can do better, produce it better but i just don't. because i was to overwhelmed with what i got this moments then i totally forget, losing sight of focus, tempted by all things happens here and i just totally forget.
Then i started to questioning myself. Why am i here now?. Yes, i do know that i am pursuing my master. the one thing i have been dreaming of is finally come true but then as some wise person might say or cliche words we almost find it everywhere. Whenever it comes to your dreams, whether are you pursuing or have come true, it always, always comes the obstacles around to tempt and trying to push you down, disbelieving, doubting your faith in what your pursuing. Trust me, i feel really bless in what i have now at the moment, nothing i can ask more other than being healthy, keeping my family in a good health and prosperous way and please keep them while i am away thousand miles from home.
But, somehow i feel like my brain is stop working. I know, i know, it is me that making it stop from working, i just love delaying stuff which i know, i really need to run or more appropriate to say is i should sprint. what happened to me now is no one can help actually. no one can actually listen to me because i am the one who knows the exact get away from what i have been through and i can easily get distracted by what people think of me. people can easily judge nowadays by their social media but to know the truth to be exact is you actually need to speak to them directly. i declare myself that i am not living in the past, but the past taught me really much of life lessons which i reckon that i failed some of the times and in some parts i succeed. but why do i care what people think about me. The people who knows you the truth is your family, who had live with you for almost half of your time in this loving earth.
So, here i am, away from home and trying to complement my life into something which i reckon its still a mystery and yet its like chasing a ghost. a ghost for me now its like a metaphor. you know whenever you trying so hard to find a ghost, that ghost is actually never appeared to you. all you need is wait for the moment with a good preparation of course. what i am saying is that ghost equally means to an idea. an idea for the my final project that soon i will be working on and hopefully, will have some funding to cooperate with.
anyway, i am bluffing. what the hell. i don't really care. does my blog useful for others? i have no idea. lets say i just working on to write in english, practicing for the upcoming essays. and what is new?? ooh there is going to be plenty of new things. i believe that. and now, whilst i am preparing stuff, i also going to be waiting for the moment. ok, ok i know, you might say, you can't wait for the moment, you need to chase it. all right, chill woman, i am running into it whilst also enjoying life and moment itself. no need to rush, you'll be miss this moments. Fuck what others say about what i am going through.
Glow, glow baby, Glow, that is all you need. And, feel bless and have faith in whatever your circumstances.
Cheers. xxx

Tanda tanya.
Suara angin kencang di luar malam ini.
Kedua tangan dan kaki dingin seperti direndam air es.
Aku ingin hangat.
(Mungkin) dalam pelukan.
Suara angin seperti badai datang tanpa diundang.
Di malam hari. Ketika manusia-manusia sedang terlelap.
Ngeri, karena sendiri.
Jendela yang sudah tertutup rapat masih saja bergerak, seperti ingin terlepas dari engselnya.
Datang tak diundang dan disangka.
Ada apa dengan raja malam hari ini?.
Sedang rindu menggebu kah dia dengan kekasihnya?.
Kekasih yang didamba, yang tak pernah tahu rasa hati si raja malam.
***
(Mungkin) sama seperti ceritaku.
Dia datang tanpa diundang.
Dan tak disangka ada rasa tumbuh di kala waktu berjalan.
Aku tidak mengenal dia sepenuhnya.
Karena dia, menyimpan rapat perasaannya.
Hari-hari berlalu. Celotehan, senyum dan tawa yang menghiburku.
Saat bersama kamu.
Kala itu, masih abu-abu.
Entah kini?. Mungkin masih sama.
Kenapa? Mungkin karena kamu.
Ya, karena kamu.
Hari itu aku bertanya dan kamu menyatakan.
Katamu, "tak pernah mudah untuk hal itu".
Aku menanggapi dengan tawa, tapi dalam hati, kucatat rapih dan ingat betul kalimat itu.
Salahkah aku?.
Yang menaruh hati kepada kamu.
Walaupun hati ini masih ragu.
Karena aku takut.
(Mungkin) sama seperti kamu.
Ada rasa ingin tahu yang setiap hari terlintas di pikiran.
Ada tetiba rindu yang datang di kala gelap tiba.
Ada khayalan yang mengantar untuk terlelap.
Ada kenangan yang membuat senyuman dan geli menggelitik.
Ada harapan yang membuat semangat.
Hanya saja, ini semua masih tanda tanya.
Mungkin saja, aku hanya dibodohi dengan pikiran dan impian dangkal yang kurangkai.
Hingga aku terjatuh lagi seperti keledai.
Kamu.

Pesan.
Pagi itu, dia datang dengan muka bingung.
Tempat baru, muka-muka baru, pengalaman baru.
Aku sedang duduk dan asik mengetik di meja kubikel.
Tak ada yang istimewa hari itu.
Lagi, datang orang baru, perkenalan baru. Gumamku.
Dari balik meja kubikel, aku memperhatikan dia.
Gerak geriknya, seolah pernah bertemu dan berkenalan.
Kutepis pikiran itu. Aku kembali mengetik.
Tapi, dia seolah punya magnet yang menarik mataku untuk sekali lagi melihatnya.
Dan, entah berapa kali aku mencuri untuk melihatnya di sela-sela ketikan naskahku.
Waktu terus berjalan. Ada cerita dalam waktu berjalan.
Ada kalimat yang ingin diucap.
Ada pikiran yang kerap kali datang bertanya.
Ada pesan yang tersirat.
Tak yakin apa ini namanya.
Apakah ini rasa? Yang kembali datang? Setelah menyakiti dan pergi begitu saja beberapa bulan lalu.
Adakah rasa ini terbalas atau terhempas?
Seperti cerita yang lalu.
Ketika rasa itu tumbuh.
Dan bayangan dia bersatu.
Menjadi simpul-simpul harapan untuk bersatu.
Anganku terbang jauh.
Berusaha menggapaimu dalam mimpi dan cerita khayalku.
Tak ingin rasa ini seperti cerita lalu.
Adakah aku sekejap dalam pikiranmu?
Ada pesan yang ingin kusampaikan.
Dari jarak ribuan mil ini.
Membayangkanmu.
Mengingat waktu bersama walau sekejap.
Ada rasa yang tumbuh.
Yang kusendiri tak tahu kemana kan berlabuh.
Ada pesan untuk kamu.
Tapi, entah kapan kamu akan tahu.
Setahun? Dua tahun? Tiga tahun?
Atau mungkin kamu tak akan pernah tahu.
Karena aku takut.
Kamu akan berakhir seperti cerita yang lalu.
Meski begitu, ini pesanku untukmu saat ini.
Sampai bertemu, lagi.
