Fire in the Building

Who would have thought that I  experienced fire in the building.  This is my first time living in an appartement. Of course I never chose appartement when living in Indonesia because it’s a real high risk when the earthquake happen. But here we are placed in an appartement. What got me relieved the first time that we are in the lowest floor so if something happen we will be quickly evacuated.  That’s what I thought.  Until it really happened.  We slept around midnight and abruptly woken up by the noise outside. I thought it was the drunk people just got back from night club or the restaurant next door was doing some deep cleaning. So loud that I had to wake up. My husband peeked outside and immediately said “fire brigade outside, you wait here!” I was just “am I dreaming or what?” I put on clothes, checked outside and saw a few of fire trucks. I checked the other side of the appartement and saw a few of police cars and ambulances.  “Oh no, something serious...

Pembelokan opini

Saya sudah lelah. Lelah kenapa ini? Oho, bukan lelah karena abis kerja rodi ya, tapi lelah dengan media masa. Jadi begini nih, kemarin-kemarin saya sudah bisa anggap itu hal yang lebih baik tidak diperhatikan, tapi lama-lama gatel juga.

Beberapa waktu lalu ada teman yang share gambar, yang isinya kurang lebih begini : (saya bikin contoh paling gampang saja lah).
Wartawan bertanya ke anggota dewan A: bapak, suka masakan buatan istri?
Anggota dewan A: suka sih, tapi nggak favorit banget, soalnya istri jarang masak
Wartawan : kalau masakan ibu janda muda depan kantor, suka?
Anggota dewan A: ohh suka, itu langganan kita, kita sering makan disana
Judul artikelnya akan menjadi "Anggota dewan A lebih memilih janda muda daripada istrinya sendiri". NAH LHO?!?!

Relevan nggak sih judulnya? Dibaca sekilas, pasti langsung mengarah ke opini "wahh anggota dewan itu jangan-jangan selingkuh", atau bisa juga kalau yang membaca adalah orang yang suka nyinyir jadinya "yaelahh, namanya cowok juga gitu, uda punya bini malah nyari janda muda". Kena deh dua2nya dinyinyirin. Kalau orang cerdas, bisa jadi "ah, paling juga judul sama isinya nggak relevan".

Ketidakrelevansian judul dengan isi bisa menyebabkan prahara lho. Yakin deh. Kalau menyangkut hajat hidup orang banyak, itu bahaya. Tapi kalau tidak mencederai siapapun, paling juga websitenya ditinggalin dan mikir kalo "nggak kredibel". Udah gitu doang. Masalahnya, kalau malah menyebabkan huru hara, misal sampai gugatan ke ranah politik, yang harus disalain ya media yang memberitakan dong.

Ahh tapi sudah banyak sekali media yang seperti itu. Bukan smakin membikin maju pembaca, malah membuat bodoh pembaca. Serius deh, saya sekarang makin males baca berita online. Karena menurut saya, judul dibuat semenarik mungkin agar dibaca, tapi kalau ternyata mengecewakan yaaaa males kan jadinya.

Let's be smart!

Jumat ceria

Hari ini memang bukan hari jumat, tapi cuman mau bilang aja sih kalo hari yang paling aku tunggu-tunggu itu hari jumat. Why?   Karena jumat itu selalu ceria, kalopun ada meeting besar pasti di hari jumat dan banyak cemilan, orang-orang pada berangkat sholat jumat, yang nasrani juga mengikuti misa di kantor, bisa pake baju bebas dan bebas berekspresi sepuas-puasnya, dan..... bisa video call sepuasnyaaaaaa kapanpun karena dia libur kerja 😍😍 gambarnya lucu 😁  taken from internet

Write Down Your Dreams, They Said.

Moscow Yes, all things I have and I do right now is all the things that I have written down on papers, during my sleeps, in my consciousness, in my visions. So let's do that again here.  I have another dream that I really think of. It's the thing I want to do when I have so much money, or enough money, or when money doesn't matter anymore, or who knows!  I wanna build a school for kids who can't afford to go to school. I want them to pay nothing, and I want them to learn the basic things like how to respect others, how to tell people their ideas/opinions, familiarize them with being kind, how to think logically, how to solve problems, etc. All the basic survival things in life.  I think my passion is always in education, but I don't always like to follow the old-school rules. There are so many important things we don't learn at school that I think should be taught there. Once we graduate from school, we usually don't know how to navigate life. Who taught you...
