Satu dan dua terlewati begitu saja. Tiga mulai memenuhi pikiranku dengannya. Empat dan lima membuatnya menjadi lebih berarti..

Akhirnya kini yang keenam tiba. Berat adalah satu kata yang bisa mewakili rasanya, namun berat bukanlah satu-satunya kata yang ada..

When A Man Loves A Woman

When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothing else
He'd trade the world for the good things found
If she is bad he can't see it; she can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend if he puts her down

When a man loves a woman
He'd spend his very last dime
Trying to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all his comforts
Sleep out in the rain
If she said that's the way it ought to be

When a man loves a woman
I'd give you everything I've got
Trying to hold onto your precious love
Please don't treat me bad

When a man loves a woman
Deep down in his soul
She can bring him such misery
If she is playing him for a fool
He's the last one to know
More than eyes can ever see

That's when a man loves a woman
I know exactly how it feels
When a man loves a woman

When somebody thinks that something is wrong while you think that it's not, then it is just a matter of a different point of view..

I have always been truthful every time I told you that I love you. When you are down and having doubts, please share them with me; release your thoughts. I will not get tired of answering, explaining, and reminding you about how am I deeply in love with you.

This one's for You..

This one's for you..
When i said something stupid
When i did something stupid
When i think of something stupid

Something that you could not understand
Something fishy
Something terrible
One that had put your head down, your heart beats faster, and your thoughts flies around

For this and or that, I'm sorry
This one's for you..

You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
When the road looks rough ahead
And you're miles and miles from your nice warm bed
You just remember what your old pal said
Boy, you've got a friend in me
Yeah, you've got a friend in me


You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You got troubles, I got them too
There isn't anything that I wouldn't do for you
If we stick together we can see it through
Cause you've got a friend in me
Yeah, you've got a friend in me


Some other folks might be a little bit smarter than I am
Bigger and stronger too, maybe
But none of them will ever love you the way I do
It's me and you, boy


And as the years go by
Our friendship will never die
You're gonna see, It's our destiny
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
Yeah, you've got a friend in me

One of my favorite songs

Short notice

Tiba-tiba sebuah pertanyaan dikeluarkan oleh guru gw di suatu sesi belajar:
"Andra, do you mostly spend your money on people instead of something you can buy?"

"Yes. Mind if i know why did you ask?"

"Nothing important; Just my curiosity. It seems like you are that kind of person, are you not?"

Ya, gw adalah termasuk ke dalam golongan orang-orang yang murah hati untuk memberikan bantuan kepada orang lain. Sebuah perbuatan yang sangat baik. I sincerely enjoyed being nice. Hanya saja sifat gw ini tidak jarang menjadi senjata api yang meledak sebelum ditembakkan. Tidak jarang gw merasa kelelahan dan kesulitan karena cenderung untuk selalu menyanggupi apa yang orang lain inginkan untuk gw bantu. Walaupun begitu gw percaya dengan kelelahan dan kesulitan yang gw hadapi selama ini -- dan yang akan gw hadapi di masa depan -- akan membuahkan sebuah "balasan" yang setimpal. Satu pelajaran hidup yang telah lama gw budayakan dan akan selalu gw pertahankan; jangan pernah ragu untuk menjulurkan tangan.

To think or not to think

Pernah seseorang bercerita ke gw mengenai pilihan-pilihan yang sudah dibuatnya selama ini. Gw tergerak untuk mengabadikannya dengan menulis sebuah uraian pendek mengenai betapa "susahnya" kita untuk membuat suatu pilihan.

Trade-offs. Hal yang pasti kita temui ini memang kadang dapat menyerupai pisau bermata dua; menguntungkan dan merugikan. Kalau dalam dunia ekonomi, kita mengenal sebuah ide yang bernama opportunity cost. Ide itu membuat kita untuk dapat menganalisa suatu pilihan dan mengetahui pilihan manakah yang seharusnya kita ambil dengan "menghitung" pilihan mana yang membutuhkan pengorbanan lebih besar. Sebuah ide yang sangat jenius tetapi tidak sempurna. Pertanyaannya adalah: Apakah semua hal bisa dihitung?

Jika kita dihadapi dengan sebuah kondisi di mana kita harus memilih antara permen atau es krim, kita tentu akan bisa menjawab dengan mudah; dipengaruhi dengan tingkat preferensi kita kepada kedua makanan manis tersebut. Jika kita dihadapi dengan sebuah kondisi di mana kita harus memilih antara mandi atau tidur, kita juga masih bisa menjawab dengan mudah; dipengaruhi dengan tingkat urgensi atau prioritas pribadi kita terhadap kedua kegiatan tersebut. Kedua contoh kasus di atas termasuk ke dalam kategori pilihan yang harus dibuat dengan hanya mempertimbangkan beberapa hal saja; hal yang sifatnya kongkrit. Tetapi coba bayangkan ketika kita harus memilih, contoh mudahnya, teman atau keluarga. Umumnya kita akan mencoba mencari poin-poin yang harus dipertimbangkan untuk dapat memilih di antara kedua hal tersebut. Setelah itu, kita akan kembali ke konsep opportunity cost yang sebelumnya sudah gw sebut. Pertanyaan yang kemudian muncul adalah: Apakah itu sudah merupakan cara yang terbaik untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan ini? Apakah kedua opsi yang harus dipilih dapat dihitung?

Gw menjawab "Tidak". Kadang memang kita dihadapi dengan kenyataan yang dapat menggandakan denyut jantung, menyesakkan paru-paru, atau hampir menerobos batas kesabaran kita. Memilih adalah bukan sesuatu yang mudah dilakukan. Memang "menghitung" kadang dapat membantu kita menyelesaikan sebuah trade-off, tetapi tidak selalu berhasil. Terkadang, hanya perasaan yang dapat memberikan solusinya. You can call me cheesy but it is the truth.

"Sometimes, thinking is not a way to get through our problems. Sometimes, not thinking is the best solution. When it comes to a situation where you can't find another way to settle a condition, stop thinking. Light sometime comes when you least expected." -R. Hava Duhita

This works in almost every kind of situations. When you have an assignment deadline; When you get bored of doing nothing; When you fall in love.

The Pre-Departure

Hello.

It hasn't been long since my last post, not in my world. Just so we all know, I'm moving to Malaysia this September. Yeah, that's barely two months away from today. Reason? I don't feel like explaining.. But we'll get to that later.

Anyway, I will resign from the University of Indonesia and continue my educational journey in KDU College. I will be taking the double honors degree in Business Management & Human Resource Management program, it's a twinning program offered by Keele University in UK. I will spend 3 years of study there.

A challenge. A huge one.

Well, of course doubtful thoughts are surrounding me in every single second of my life knowing that I have to leave my current life here in Jakarta. Phew.. This is all too sudden, believe me I know.

And I'll be several miles further to reach you..

I don't know whether this is the right decision for me to take, but I am sure it's the best for me. And so, i just can't wait until my departure. Doubts, excitements, heartbeats.

Anywhere I go, it goes nowhere but inside me.
