tulisan hampa

Udah sepuluh bulan saya di Leeds, jauh dari rumah dan keluarga. Kalo ada yang pengen saya temuin di Indonesia selain keluarga dan sahabat, inilah random people yang semoga bisa punya kesempatan ketemu dan have time sama mereka: 1. Arief Bramantyo - the one and only him. we promised eating out at Burger King as he is now a carnivore! haha. 2. Andi Michael - udah lama ngefans sama bassist-nya Afterclass ini, sayangnya malah sempet pacaran sama gitarisnya :D 3. Arif Tirtosudiro - announcer, music director, producer radio 94,7 UFM Jakarta. Aduh mak suaranyaa!!!! 4. Chairun Rezki - best friend of the century, semacam mau menggila sama dia gitu ya!! lots to tell banget deh! 5. Jane Amelia - oh god, she's everything; fashion advisor, eat mate, shopping partner, love sharer! everything! 6. Randhy Fazralimanda - the doctor, the brother, the crazier, the hero, the man! 7. Boce Maniek - dari jaman belum ke Leeds, doi pengen banget drop gue ...

Malam terakhir di Espagna, Seperti haus bercerita, Ratusan jam berlalu tanpa rekan setara, Rasanya baru kemarin apply visa, Sekarang sudah siap trip kedua. Eropa, sensasinya penuh makna. Isyarat sang Penguasa. Saya banyak diam dalam bicara, Bukan habis bahan ucapan, Tapi ingin lagi melihat apa yang cenderung terlewat. Sepintas saya tertawa, lalu earphone di sepasang telinga memicu air mata. Pergi sama master di bidang transport ini kualitasnya nggak sebanding sama master di bidang planologi, sosiologi, arkeologi, filosofi, politik maupun theologi. Pun saya tetap belum enggan bersyukur, seperti Tuhan masih terus mau membisikkan kehadirannya di sela hembusan nafas dan detakan nadi saya. Seperti ada yang hilang saat angin mengeringkan basah air wudhu di kening saya. Tapi selalu mengembun di pergelangan tangan kiri, menari mengayunkan imajinasi tentang Ilahi. Tentang misteri, yang selalu saya cari. Eropa, sejuta cerita.

I'm writing this as my train to London got stuck because of an accident somewhere near the next station. And I intend to fulfil my promise to write about my (shall I say ex-) bestfriend I have ever had in my entire life, Tyo. I am in doubt if I really have to address our friendship as dating because I don't think I have ever felt that deep feeling to other friends no matter how close we were. Yet, we felt like we were free to fall in love for other people, while in fact I was dating 3 men when Tyo and me were still in our bestfriend-ship. Firstly met in a theatre project Somebody Famous, where Tyo was the director and I was the cast, I didn't think that we would be more than 'director and cas'. I told Tyo lots of things and life perspective, complexity and interests. Him? He taught me how to enjoy James Iha, The Wave Pictures, Morrissey, Amy Winehouse, and other what-so-called-non-mainstream things, our talk-quality was always adorable and out exchange of imagi...

Today, 9 June 2012, I officially registered my blog domain into www.tulisanhampa.com. I am no longer using 'blogspot' term in my web address and this means I need to seriously write from now on. Paid domain name is the most ridiculous thing I have ever had so far in my life. I mean, who does even open my web page but spam and random tracking search result from Google? HAHAHA. I am keen to it from now, so beware if you really are the loyal reader of my blog. "Stalking and researching have a slight difference, as well as flattered and annoyed." Beware and enjoy!

I meant to post this story here, but it turns out Tumblr is more accessible from my Blackberry. Enjoy!

my mom is a multitasker. she cooks, she dances, she sings and she acts. she drives, she teaches, she cleans, she washes, she does almost everything. it might be different than my dad's, but my love to her is just as big as her sacrifice to the family. she definitely does everything but three things: betraying her god, betraying her husband, and producing cement. she totally rocks. her smile is the warmest welcome i have ever felt when i'm too exhausted from school. her cook is the most delicious compared to dad's office catering. her voice is the softest we all ever heard every morning from the kitchen. her prayer is the best amongst all the most beautiful wish ever happened in this earth. god have put her in the best place in everyone's heart. and no one would ever hate her no matter how annoying she is sometimes when she's flipped out. she definitely does everything. i love my mom, a multi tasker with one heart.
