#quarterlifecrissis

On the beginning of the year I was shocked because suddenly I have to be bridesmaid not just for one wedding of my friend but there are 3 more to go. Yeah, all of my best friend from high school are also getting married this year, can you imagine that? I was so surprised that they were proposed by the end of the year last year then suddenly one by one all of them are informing their wedding dates. I was already attending wedding almost every month starting last year but what shocking me is that I have to be the bridesmaid four time this year, it just that I am so happy for them but at the same time feeling insecure because of their "settled" life coming ahead.

I know that everyone have their own time zone in their life, that they will arrive times when you are getting married and have a job and have a family and wonderful life and so forth. It just that maybe next year everything would change. My friend would not single anymore and they might be pregnant or having babies and talking about the price of the milk and stuff while I'm still looking for a decent guy to come and propose me lol, and pursuing my career as a doctor with endless examination to do first.

They say at your quarter age people should worry about the intimate relationship and stability of career in which both of them are things that distract me. I felt so stupid on being so weak this past year and forgetting about the bigger future a hold on me that I should continue to pursue. I am worried to be like everyone else and yet I forgot that if I become like what everyone else did like married now and forgot about my dream and so on, and just like that would make me no special at all. I forgot to being me. That strong independent women who eager to try something new, who always curious about new knowledge, who criticise everything that runs differently, who can be strong toward temptation. I have to find my way back as my friend said "You should go for it, Nadya!"

When I look back I said to my self and realize, you'll be regret on time you spend on thinking of things that is not deserved to have your attention and distract you. You should keep on going. Don't let anything go in your way. Find your way back.


In strugling to recover my thought about planning on my future.

Poem Collection from 7 Habit Highly Effective Teens from Sean Covey

#1: Who am I?  I am your constant companion. I am your greatest helper or heaviest burden. I will push you onward or drag you down to failure. I am completely at your command. Half the things you do you might just as  well turn over to me and I will be able to do  them quickly and correctly. I am easily managed--you must merely be firm with me. Show me exactly how you  want something done and after a few lessons  I will do it automatically. I am the  servant of all great individuals and, alas, of  all failures, as well. Those who are great I have made great. Those who are failures, I have made failures. I am not a machine, though I work with all the precision of a machine plus the intelligence of a human. You may run me for a profit or run me for ruin--it makes no difference to me. Take me, train me, be firm with me,  and I will place the world at your feet. Be easy with me and I will destroy you. Who am I? I am habit #2: Man in the Mirror I'm starting with the man in the mirr

Excerpts from Teman Imaji

Kotatsu: Kopi atau Susu K: "Menurut Mas, ya, lebih enak mana. Lampu merah yang ada penghitung mundurnya. Atau yang tidak? B: "Hmm.. Dengan penghitung mundur. Supaya sambil menunggu, bisa melakukan hal yang lain. Kalau waktunya sudah dekat, bisa bersiap dan bergegas." Kalau kau? K: "Tanpa penghitung mundur. Menunggu jadi seru saat kita tak tahu kapan akan berakhir. Kita akan menghargai setiap detik penantian." B: "Masa?" K: " Iya. Nilai sesuatu lebih berharga saat kita belum memilikinya. Atau, sudah tak memilikinya lagi." B: "Kan, lebih enak kalau tahu semua kenyataan. Apa adanya," K: "Kadang tak tahu, lebih baik dari tau. Lebih baik daripada tau sesuatu tapi tak jujur. Atau tau setengah-setengah, tapi ujungnya kita salah menduga. Atau yang jujur, tapi terlalu pahit." B: "Saya menyimak" K: " Allah itu Mahacanggih. Nggak semua hal dikasih tau ke kita. Karena kita belum siap tau kenyataannya

A Tale of my Two used to be "Friend"

  Ternyata cerita drama atau sinetron itu klo kejadian ke diri lo sendiri itu lebih sakit adanya ngejalaninnya. Gw mau cerita ttg dua orang yang "dulunya" pernah jadi temen gw. Yang satu temen gw di sekumpulan grup pecinta alam yang suka naik gunung bareng. Pernah kerja bareng di suatu acara intra kampus dengan jadi koordinator bareng. Berlanjut sampe bantuin gw skripsian, ya cukup diandalkan lah buat dimintain tolong buat sekedar jemput gw subuh2 di stasiun kereta atau saling support selama koas yg bikin orang vulnerable karna jauh dari orang tua dan tuntutan kerjaan yang bikin lelah hati dan pikiran. Oh tapi ga cuma2 jg dong dia bantuin gw karena yg ada jg dia butuh gw, tiap stase pinjem buku gw, pinjem alkes pun dan ga lupa jg minta operan stase pdhl kita stase bareng aja gapernah jadi senior junior stase jg ga pernah. Entah itu modusnya buat selalu ada bahan ngobrol sama gw atau main bareng gw atau emg simply dia ga modal aja anaknya. Sempet dikecewain karena ternyata pa
