This Saturday, school ended early at 9.30 am because there was a meeting by those teachers. And the lesson just like mathematic for 45 minutes, civil for 45 minutes and just saw the presentation of my classmates, and the last was art for 90 minutes. After school should be a technical meeting of a program of Smansa Goes to YPAC. Well, yes I join this program.

Fortunately, the technical meeting was cancelled. I went home really early so I decided to stay in the school. I met friend, had very little talk and said good bye. Well, there was a basketball competition of my school. But because I’m not people who like basketball so much, I didn’t follow to watch my school team in a competition of the town with my friends.

When I arrived home, Dimar asked me to accompany her to go to the bookstore. Because there wasn’t any activity to do, I joined her but we change the place to go. We went to Solo Square and decided to look for a clock. But the fact was we didn’t buy any clock.

Kita memutuskan untuk jalan-jalan dan cuci mata. Masuk satu store ke store yang lain dan keluar tanpa membeli satu item pun.

We went to the Gramedia bookstore for sightseeing. We found some cute items, wanted to buy them but finally cancelled it. I went to the novel corner and found some latest book of my favorite author. I was like a fool because I scream in the bookstore. I don’t bring much money, so I decided to buy it later.

The book is Sejuta Rasa, written by Tere Liye, I’m sure this is one of the newest books because I never met it in other bookstore before. I really want to buy it, but I also want to buy other books. Well, I save my money and make it more useful.

Walaupun tetap saja rasanya berat saat melangkahkan kaki keluar Gramedia. Karena selain buku baru milik Tere Liye, saya juga menemukan beberapa buku lain yang juga ingin saya beli. Tetapi keterbatasan selalu ada pada diri seseorang. Dan sore itu kekurangan saya adalah tidak membawa cukup uang untuk belanja buku.

Then, we went to Disc-Tarra for sightseeing. I met Taylor Swift’s DVD World Tour which made me scream like a fool. I was going crazy. People were starting look at me like they looked a circus.

Actually I already know this DVD several months ago from my friend. Well, I’ve decided to save my money and bought one of them because I knew this DVD is sold unlimited. And when I already had the money and I was going to buy the DVD is sold out. Then I was so sad and the world looked worst.

Jadi ketika saya dapat akhirnya mendapatkan DVD tersebut saya benar-benar melampiaskan kegilaan saya saat itu juga. Saya baru kembali normal ketika banyak orang telah menghadap kearah saya  dan melihat saya dengan pandangan yang sedikit aneh.

Terserah apa yang orang katakan kepada saya saat itu, yang jelas sore itu saya benar-benar senang. Merasa bahwa diri ini sangat beruntung telah mendapatkan DVD World Tour Taylor Swift yang sudah sejak lama saya inginkan.

Sore itu, uang yang ada di kantong langsung menyusut drastis tapi sungguh money cant buy happiness. Sore itu saya benar-benar merasa bahagia sekali. Bahkan ketika pulang, beribu ucapan syukur saya panjatkan untuk tuhan. Alhamdulillah

A Friday with some experiences.

Learned at school as usual; sociology, chemistry, Bahasa Indonesia and Islamic. As always chemistry had a very unpredictable test or task. There were more that 140 exercises to do with time less than 90 minutes. This is the way I really hate on this lesson. Another lesson seems so bored because there were nothing interesting thing to do. Sociology had the task to write down about an example. Bahasa Indonesia heard the speech from other friends. And at the Islamic lesson, we learned about wakaf.

The school ended at 11.15 am.

1.15 pm, I followed the scout activity. There, I found a competition will be holding on June 9 until 10, 2012. That’s mean, I can’t go to Surabaya for the wedding party of my sister. I’ll stay for a night in the school for follow some activities with my classmates. The activities like make a vision-board about ‘Scout of Our Future, Hasta Karya, Cooking, Scout and etc. After did some discussion, I’ll join for Hasta Karya.

Scout finished at 2.15 pm but I still can’t back to my home.

Just a reason. There would be another thing to-do, a selection of Latihan Dasar Kepemimpinan, Round 3. Well, you can read about the first round here and so sorry because I was not writing the second one. I with another 76 people were followed the activities started from 3 pm until about 6 pm. We needed to bring things like co-card, plastic bag and straw.

Well, a little story happened with my co-card. The entire co-cards were made together by my friends because there were a lot people couldn’t make their own. At the break first, I helped my friend to finish it. We turned on the string and divided them by the class. The entire co-card should be 77 but after checked it, we found some of them were lost. And mine was one of them.

I was panic. Searched one by one, class by class, person to person, but I still couldn’t find it. I and my friends were planning to make it again by our self, but some people said they saw my co-card. So this time, we canceled to make the others. But, they were wrong.  What they found was a co-card of other who had the first name looks like mine.

After that, we (actually, I was not) made the new co-card and bring them to the photocopy center. When my friends left me in the school, the committees were calling us to gather. Also when they went to the photocopy center, the leader of the team found our co-card, I tried to call them but they didn’t bring their phone.  My friends weren’t back at that time and I was so panic because this was one of my mistakes.

Fortunately, they were back after a while.  And, I’m so excited. They were back very close with the time when we should be divided in some clusters.

After found my cluster friends, we had a task to sell some foods and drinks. There were guava juice, milk, caramel and etc. We went to the town center to sell the foods and drinks. We met some consumers, some of they were teens, children and even adults. We needed to make a big profit so we sold it be very expensive.

40 minutes we used to sold the foods and drinks, we got Rp 22.500 for our profit. Maybe you think, this money was not much but by this I found how meaningful money is. People should be appreciateing of money, because the poor people tried so hard to get their money.

During the time of my life I like to waste the money I have, now I realize how hard the way my parents get it. Certainly, I try to get better and try it every single part of my life. I realize I love the way God give me a way to make my life easier. Then I realize there are a lot people cant get a better life than mine.

Thank God for your help on my life.

The girl who realize she’s nothing

My mother teach me to always love my self but dont ever blame anyone ever. She tells me to smile even on the hardest moment. For her, by a smile can change the entire world. Because when you’re smile the world will smile with you

I grow up with parents who support me and make sure I can always do everything that I want if I work-hard. My family also the most important part in my life. We support each others like friends. They are the reason I stand so brave like this even with my weakness side.

The song, Born This Way is one of my favorite songs. This song has a very meaningful lyrics. The way Lady Gaga write the lyrics tells us to not shy with everything we have. 

Everyone is beautiful. They have their own way to share it. That’s way I hate on some one who judge people by its cover. I mean, God created us with our potential, because every one have their power and they also have their weakness. 

Manusia adalah makluk paling sempurna yang pernah diciptakan Tuhan. Kita memiliki akal dan nurani. Mungkin memang banyak orang yang hidup dalam kesengsaraan baik secara lingkungan maupun bentuk tubuh mereka yang kurang sempurna, but the truth is EVERYONE IS BEAUTIFUL.

Some of us sometime hide and fear of our mistakes. Some of us try to be different, the change their fashion style. Some of us still be their self who love on their own way to life. For me, I should enjoy the life God only give me once. 

Setiap orang memiliki cara mereka masing-masing untuk tampak cantik. Ada yang percaya bahwa cantik dengan fashion, cantik dengan hati dan cantik yang lain. Yang harus kita yakini adalah Tuhan memberi kita kelebihan agar kita dapat memberitahu kepada dunia tentang kecantikan kita. 

I’m beautiful in my way
‘Cause God makes no mistakes
I’m on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don’t hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you’re set
I’m on the right track, baby
I was born this way

Berdirilah dengan teguh agar semua orang dapat melihat kita dan mereka tak lagi meremehkan kita. Karena kita bukanlah sampah yang patut dicaci. Kita adalah makluk sempurna yang sepatutnya dipuji. 

Bravery, to me, means not losing sight of yourself; your true passions, morals. It means using your personal compass to the fullest, always trusting yourself and not letting others chink your armor. It’s hard to describe, but that is what it’s always felt like in my case.

Born This Way Foundation is one of lady Gaga’s way to share with us how beautiful our self is. This mother monsters tells her children to love their life. From Born This Way Foundation I learn to love my self and respect each others.

Out there, a lot of people need us to protect them. They want to stand so bravery like us. They want us to teach them to be better. Love is one of a lot of ways we can share with them. 

Bravery can means everything, but it all centers on us. 

Be beautiful by you way. WE ARE BORN THIS WAY
