After Evening Showering
The ideas about surprise after showering is amazing. Rinda Widya once said they wish I stepped out of the bath room only w towel covering my body. Unfortunately, I didn’t!:)
Thank you guys I love you (in bad and good ha ha!). I never get yelled Happy Birthday after showering before:*
Little Thank-You Saying
I’m not sort of a celebrating-birthday person. And I know he also is. He even forgot mine last year, ha ha.
Yet I wanna so thank him. All those birthday stuff was not like his things! Blowing candles straight at 12.00 am, cake,. and the printed scrap book is amazing. About the scrap book, well, you know me:)
So just thank you again! I know how you planned this all. Also thank you again...

Tentang Tuhan Menurut Saya
Masing-masing dari kita punya pandangan beragam tentang Tuhan. Banyak juga yang menganggap Tuhan itu tidak ada, doesn’t exist. Tapi Einstein sendiri beranggapan bahwa ada suatu dzat yang menjalankan alam semesta, yang menjalankan bumi berputar, yang menjalankan pergerakan galaksi Bimasakti.
Saya termasuk orang yang percaya kata-kata:
God is how you think He is.
Tuhan melihat, Tuhan adil,...
Professor : You are a Christian, aren’t you, son?
Student : Yes, sir.
Professor: So, you believe in GOD?
Student : Absolutely, sir.
Professor : Is GOD good?
Student : Sure.
Professor: Is GOD all powerful?
Student : Yes.
Professor: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to GOD to heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But GOD didn’t. How is this GOD good then? Hmm?
(Student was silent.)
Professor: You can’t answer, can you ? Let’s start again, young fella. Is GOD good?
Student : Yes.
Professor: Is satan good?
Student : No.
Professor: Where does satan come from?
Student : From … GOD …
Professor: That’s right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?
Student : Yes.
Professor: Evil is everywhere, isn’t it ? And GOD did make everything. Correct?
Student : Yes
Professor: So who created evil ?
(Student did not answer.)
Professor: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don’t they?
Student : Yes, sir.
Professor: So, who created them ?
(Student had no answer.)
Professor: Science says you have 5 Senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Tell me, son, have you ever seen GOD?
Student : No, sir.
Professor: Tell us if you have ever heard your GOD?
Student : No , sir.
Professor: Have you ever felt your GOD, tasted your GOD, smell your GOD? Have you ever had any sensory perception of GOD for that matter?
Student : No, sir. I’m afraid I haven’t.
Professor: Yet you still believe in Him?
Student : Yes.
Professor : According to Empirical, Testable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says your GOD doesn’t exist. What do you say to that, son?
Student : Nothing. I only have my faith.
Professor: Yes, faith. And that is the problem Science has.
Student : Professor, is there such a thing as heat?
Professor: Yes.
Student : And is there such a thing as cold?
Professor: Yes.
Student : No, sir. There isn’t.
(The lecture theatre became very quiet with this turn of events.)
Student : Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don’t have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we can’t go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.
(There was pin-drop silence in the lecture theater.)
Student : What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?
Professor: Yes. What is night if there isn’t darkness?
Student : You’re wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light. But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and its called darkness, isn’t it? In reality, darkness isn’t. If it is, were you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn’t you?
Professor: So what is the point you are making, young man?
Student : Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.
Professor: Flawed ? Can you explain how?
Student : Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good GOD and a bad GOD. You are viewing the concept of GOD as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, Science can’t even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of life: just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor, do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?
Professor: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.
Student : Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?
(The Professor shook his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument was going.)
Student : Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor. Are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher?
(The class was in uproar.)
Student : Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor’s brain?
(The class broke out into laughter.)
Student : Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor’s brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established Rules of Empirical, Stable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says that you have no brain, sir. With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?
(The room was silent. The Professor stared at the student, his face unfathomable.)
Professor: I guess you’ll have to take them on faith, son.
Student : That is it sir… Exactly ! The link between man & GOD is FAITH. That is all that keeps things alive and moving.
Mari Buka Mata, Youth!

Jadi Juli 2012 lalu, saya mengikuti Roadshow School of Volunteers. Acara Roadshow semacam ini harusnya diikuti oleh semua remaja lain seperti umur-umur saya. Beneran. Setelah ikut Roadshow ini, saya bener-bener terbuka wawasannya. Sedih banget aja baru setelah pulang dari roadshow sadar kalau Indonesia is really big and i need to open my eyes wider.
Nah, berikut adalah salah satu...

Engga cuma pergi ke ahlinya, ekonometrika di-overthink juga tiap bangun tidur sampe sebelum tidur malem hari. Semangat buat kita!!

A Beautiful Lie
Easy-reading-book. Good character describing, good conflict, Bapuja character is so strong, described as tough-smart-open minded guy, even though he actually just lays in bed from beginning to the end of the story. What a wonderful writing, Mr. Master! Very good book.

Satu Atap, Seragam, dan Semangat.
Mengajar seperti guru mungkin memang tidak bisa. Tapi memberi motivasi untuk belajar ternyata, yaah satidaknya, tidak susah. Selama beberapa hari aku dan yg lain datang pagi-pagi ke sekolah satu atap. Arip, Widya, Darwin, kami selalu satu tim.
Dingin jahat yang seperti menggigit ketika mandi pagi-pagi sekali, mata yang masih berat dibuka bekas begadang semalam, rasanya sebanding dengan semangat...

1000 Pohon Unpad : Mmmmm;)
Salah satu agenda di Sukajadi, menanam pohon simbolik dari UNPAD. Berjalan tidak dekat dan tidak sebentar, akhirnya sampai di tujuan. Terlepas dari agenda, kegiatan, berjalan, dan semacamnya, aku menikmati kegiatan apapun di luar rumah;)
p.s : banyak aqua di tas punggung, tentu banyak terimakasih terucap dari semua buat Fikri Arip:D
Cerita dari Sukanyiru (Wado, Sukajadi)
Wado, Sukajadi, Sukanyiru punya banyak hal buat dikagumi. Dataran tingginya terhampar luas, jalan menanjaknya berkelok-kelok, kabutnya yang tiap jam tiga sore sudah menebal, udaranya sejuk khas pedesaan pada umumnya, dan air terjunnya, tidak akan terlupa.

Me vs. Fat
After this KKN stuff, I, still, can’t lose weight untill now. So I think i got to swim, swim, swim, since it’s the only sport I can do (I hate gym). Besides, swimming is the best way to burn calories (I think this is why you always get starving after swimming!).
p.s: Colourful swimsuit equals big spirit to burn fat! Hyaaaaa!

Alhamdulillah for This Two Years
Waited Takim come home, I had slept with upset and mad at night, because it was sooooooo long. I never mind waiting so long as long as I’m told that it would be long. But he always doesn’t.
About 15 minutes I’d been sleeping, somebody was knocking at the door but not waiting my “come on in” he was just coming in to room. Oh! I suddenly woke up and saw him stepping up...
