Just Like Butterflies

Hey all! Happy Sunday! 
I'm gonna post something here as always hoping to entertain you! Here we go


So i just finished read my novel, 'Just Like Butterflies' by Claudia Natasia. Have you read it or heard that novel? Well i'll tell you. This novel is written by a 19 years old girl. Though she's indonesian but she wrote her novel in english. This novel isn't about love story or princess and her prince, but it's about a girl who discovered the beauty of faith and love during summer. This is the prologue that written on the back of the book.



"Living within the boundaries of unrequited love was something that sixteen year old Chantel hated. Adopted from China into what seemingly was the perfect family, Chantel grew up with a scar across her face; a remnant of her past that made her see herself and the world as a terrfyingly ugly place. With the scar; love and everything beautiful was non existent. Living within her rebellious cousin's footsteps, made Chantel sink even further into her own pool of fears, where she slowly realizes that the farthest she could possibly get to a happily ever after at this rate, were her dreams. However, all it took was one summer to change everything." 



This novel released in 2010, and i only bought it around January 2012. When i found out that it's a novel written in english by Indonesian girl, i was so happy. Because i've been searching that kind of novel and 'Just Like Butterflies' was my first one. 
In this novel, Chantel was just like me. I'm not adopted or have scar across my face, but i'm so afraid to face the change and always feel i'm not beautiful. But Chantel also taught me that every girl is beautiful and deserve happily ever after with a guy like Josh.

Claudia Natasia the girl who wrote this novel said that the money she got from selling the book, will donate it all to an orphanage in Ambon. Isn't she so sweetheart?
You can click this for more information about it.

After read her novel i'm thinking i want to be like her. I mean, i want to write my own novel in english either indonesian and publish it. All of sudden it's now become one of my dream.

I will be soon working on it and hope to publish it someday. Amen.
A girl can dream.

Hacker or Stalker?

Hey all! It's been 10 days i didn't post anything here because.. you know busy and kind of lazy. But here i am now, to entertain you with my post! Here you go


Hacker or Stalker? Why do i want to post about it? Well, i just want to let my mind tell the differences between those words. And which one is better to me. First of all, i'm gonna tell you how my day was.

Jadi, hari ini gue ikut semacam seminar blogger gitu dari sekolah. Seminar itu dari perkumpulan blogger dan hacker se-Banten gitu. Rada kecewa sih gara-gara dibilangin katanya setiap kelas harus ada perwakilan 4 orang, tapi nyatanya? Berantakan banget yang dateng. Selain itu, gue juga ga ikut praktek siaran learning broadcast gue, yang udah gue tunggu-tunggu dari awal learning broadcast itu berjalan. But i didn't regret it, it was all worth.

Check out their blog here

Oke udah jelas kan ya? Sekarang gue mau berbagi sedikit apa yang udah gue pelajari dari seminar itu. Pertama, gue mau mendeskripsikan pengertian Hacker dan Stalker versi gue.

Hacker

Hacker menurut versi Ressa adalah, seseorang atau beberapa orang yang dengan sengaja ingin merusak bahkan mematikan suatu server atau semacamnya milik orang lain. Isn't it rude?

Walaupun seorang yang seminar itu bilang kalo dia ga pernah meng-hack web seseorang untuk merusak, melainkan mencuri datanya. Singkat cerita, karena gue lupa apa kelanjutannya dengan melakukan hal itu dia bisa mendapatakan uang dari google sekitar $10 USD setiap ada yang meng-klik web yang telah di-hacknya itu. Iya gue tau, itu kreatif dan menguntungkan cuma gue ga habis pikir aja.. What does he do that for? Money? Is there no other good way to making money, ONLINE?

Stalker

Setelah panjang lebar mencurahkan hacker tadi, sekarang giliran stalker menurut versi Ressa.

Stalker menurut gue adalah orang yang hanya ingin membuka dan melihat-lihat web seseorang tanpa ada maksud merusak. Yah kalo ngacak-ngacak sedikit wajar kan? Kalo misalnya keder, gini deh lu bisa dengan indahnya mengetahui password web seseorang dan menggunakan web itu selayaknya lu adalah pemiliknya. Misalnya, buat bajak twitter seseorang! Lu bisa menghapus tweet orang itu atau mem-follow dan unfollow sesuka lu. So, kalo lu mau bajak twitter seseorang ga harus lewat blackberry, iPhone atau aplikasi twitter di handphone biasa. Gimana? Ngerti maksud gue kan sekarang?

Sebenernya kalo stalking ini, menurut gue pribadi hanya bisa digunakan buat jejaring sosial, tapi kalau web atau server bisa di-stalk, unfortunately i have no idea.

Setelah baca pengertian Hacker dan Stalker versi Ressa, apa pendapat kalian semua? Inget ya, jangan terpengaruh dengan deskripsi gue itu! Kalau kalian berpendapat lain yang jauh berbeda dengan gue, no offense, kay?

Thank you for reading, xoxo

GLOOMY TUESDAY

Hey all what's up? I finally have my time to post something on here! So, won't take any much longer, here it goes!!!

Well, technically yesterday was valentine’s day, but to me it’s just Tuesday. Why? Since I’m moeslim and they say there is no valentine for us, so I go with that. But if you wanna celebrate it, it’s up to you! You don’t have to take my words seriously, okay?

Right, since I didn’t celebrate valentine this year or like before because… maybe because I’m single! Hell yeah I lost count how many times I’ve pasted valentine without boyfriend or something, I do still have friends anyway! Don’t forget that! And I’m not 'forever alone'!! I hate those words! Who created it? Couldn’t they make it softer? It hurts you know!

I’d love to use words like, 'single for a while' better than that crap! Stop using those words from now on, okay?

Jadi, kenapa gua ngasih judul post-an gue ‘Gloomy Tuesday’?

Mau tau? Baiklah!

Intinya gue itu galau mendadak di tanggal 14 februari 2012 yang bertepatan dengan hari valentine atau hari selasa kemarin.

Kenapa gue galau? Apa yang membuat gue galau? Begini ceritanya….

Jadi, hari selasa itu gue pulang sekolah. Setelah sampe rumah gue melakukan hal yang biasa gue lakukan, ganti baju lalu tiduran di kamar sambil mainin blackberry gue. Hal gue lakukan adalah bukan bbm-an, tapi gue twitteran.

Saat gue sedang me-refresh TL di twitter for blackberry gue, tiba-tiba gue liat username the-boy-who-can’t-be-named muncul di TL gue.

Nah, mungkin biar lebih jelas, hubungan gue dengan 'boy' itu adalah kakak kelas dan adik kelas sewaktu gue smp. Tapi, mungkin kalian perlu tau, I have feeling for him for over 3 years, it’s long time I know! I just don’t know why I still can’t get over him even though it’s clear he doesn’t like me that way, EVER! He only see me as friend, even his sister.

Kalian tau kan kalo punya feeling ke seseorang gimana? Oke! Kemudian setelah itu gue stalk twitternya. Rata-rata isi TLnya yang seputar boys gitu ga jauh jauh dari bola, tapi ada satu yang mencolok mata dan hati gue.

Disitu gue liat dia mentionan sama entah bener atau salah, adik kelasnya. Kenapa gue bisa bilang gitu? Ya karena that 'boy' manggil ke dia itu ‘De’ dan dia itu cewe.

Bukan hanya mentionan, tapi that 'boy' was flirting with her on twitter! Repeat, flirting!

Mungkin kalian nganggep itu biasa, tapi itu sakit menurut gue. That 'boy' yang awalnya ga pernah manggil gue dengan sebutan ‘De’ tiba-tiba manggil gue dengan kata itu saat dia men-DM dan BBM gue. Gue masih terima saat itu. Tapi lama kelamaan that 'boy' makin tambah cuek sama gue. Kemana dia yang dulu? Kemana dia yang gue tau bakal manggil gue dengan nama gue sendiri ketimbang ‘De’? kemana dia yang mau gue ajak jalan, walaupun belum tercapai sampe saat ini? I want the old him back!!

After of all, gue ga bermaksud suudzon tapi gue punya firasat dia benci sama gue. Entah apa yang telah gue lakukan, dia menjauhi gue.

Gue harap gue ga suudzon dan ini semua salah, gue ga bisa bohong tapi gue masih mau deket sama dia. Entah daya tarik apa yang membuat gue susah move on dari dia.

And that’s what I called gloomy tuesday! It’s not really sad when you read that, but if you were me, you could feel the pain inside.

Anyway, happy valentine for you (sorry i'm late), wether a couple or not! And thank you for wasted your time to read this post of me. Love, xoxo.

Language Transformation

Hey all what's up! Been long  didn't post anything on blog well finally here i am! Anyway, i'm gonna change a bit for.....for whoever. What would i change? My language! As you know i've never posted anything in Indonesian, so starting from now on i will. I am Indonesian, a pure Indonesian, so why don't i use my own language huh? But even i'll post with Indonesian, i won't stop use english on my blog. I will keep doing that, even now you read me write english right? Just for you to know, i prefer write anything in english than Indonesian. No offense


Seperti yang udah gue jelasin tadi di opening or something,gue akan mulai menulis blog dengan bahasa indonesia. Jadi, gue mulai dari postingan ini sampai seterusnya postingan lain akan menggunakan bahasa indonesia. Sebenernya ga 100% bahasa indonesia, gue akan tetap menggabungkan dengan bahasa inggris. Kalo dipresentasikan mungkin sekitar english 60% indonesian 40% kali ya. Gausah komen!
Anyway, sebenernya gue ga ada hal apa-apa yang mau gue share, ga ada cerita menyenangkan, menggalaukan, mengejutkan dan semacamnya. Gue cuma mau ngasih tau ini aja, something that i call it BIG ANNOUNCEMENT.
Kalo dibilang gue ga punya cerita, apa segitu flat nya hidup gue sampe ga punya story untuk dipublikasikan?
Actaully i have tons of story, tapi cerita itu ga ada yang menarik menurut gue pribadi. Cuma cerita daily biasa yang ga bisa masuk nominasi untuk dishare di blog.

Nah, setelah kalian baca tulisan gue diatas, sebagian dari kalian pasti akan beranggapan bahwa gue itu mencoba untuk melawak, ya kan? Ngaku aja!
Ya memang mungkin gue mencoba dan bukan mungkin gue gatau kalian ga akan ketawa.
Daripada makin ga jelas i better wrap this down okay! Toh, kalian juga ga menemukan poin yang penting kan di-post an ini?

SELAMAT MEMBACA!!
