The beginning
This is the first day and the first time I write a blog for myself. The story was started when I was 17 (at the time all my friends go to their eighteen I am still 17 :<). In January of 2022 - the second semester, I received a present from my parents which is a brand-new laptop to study for the university entrance exam in the July of 2022. In my country, this exam is extremely tough and full of stress because just only few of students can attend to top universities. I had to work really hard and have a bad stomachache because of going to bed late regularly at 2 AM. After all, I passed (Thanks God, finally I can have a good sleep after 9 months!!!). I will go to my favorite university in this Oct (super exiting!) and have more time to start a new journey with this blog that stores all the memories of my20s. So super exited for the future and hope everything will be great.
P/s: English is my second language and I want to practice my writing as well, so I hope you enjoy and give me some advice if I have any faults about grammars, vocabs or better logical writing style. I'd love to receive all your comments.

June 22, 2023
Thursday isn’t my favorite day of the week, it’s like the slowest day where weekend is nearing but weekdays is still holding you back. However, it was a very pleasing day for work for me today from editing stories, interviews with new interns and laughing with workmates. It’s just that the air-conditioning unit is not functioning well again (hell days coming).
My sandals (SHEIN haha) snapped and is a very clear sign of buying a new purposeful one (reasons).
We (Miguel) had dinner at Kuya Jeff’s siomai and sol’s forever loving halo-halo. A good day for me is having a great talk and sharing your tiring day with someone. My quality time self is fed. And called it a day after (pero naghilak-hilak pa ko nagbasa og tiktok one-shot)
Second day of no IG, it feels so different and incomplete but that’s the purpose of this detox. I don’t think I can last until a month, but a week is decent enough. I just needed a time to be away from people but still telling my stories, so hi tumblr.
I was also a bit upset receiving a pink shoes that was originally from someone I am uncomfortable with. I appreciate the gesture, I just don’t like how it felt. I’m not maarte but yeah, maarte diay ko.
How hard it is do deal with people that you don’t like because of a history. Dealing with a special person’s circle of girl friends is not a problem for me, it’s even showing how beautiful his character is around ladies but dealing with someone who like or used to like your person and now refers herself as a friend is cringey. Empathy ginagmay. Pero no hard feelings, padayon ta kay Byernes napud ta.

Belajar banyak di tahun ini,
belajar tentang membenci adalah hal yang sia-sia,
belajar menghargai manusia lain yang pernah kita repotkan,
belajar mencintai tanpa tahu akhir yang pasti,
belajar mengikhlaskan hati lain yang sempat tertahan karena diri ini.
Empat bulan pertama sudah terlewati di tahun ini, bulan-bulan berikutnya mari kita amini penuh dengan kebaikan dan kebahagiaan untuk kita (manusia-manusia yang pandai mengeluh dan tak sadarkan diri).

Rekap paruh awal 2022
Januari
Malam tahun baru aku habiskan di Indonesia, karena waktu itu kebetulan lagi mudik. Harusnya tanggal 31 Desember udah balik lagi ke Belanda sih, tapi karena masih kangen dan belum puas di Indonesia, jadinya kami perpanjang tinggal di Indonesia sekitar 2 minggu. Lumayan nambah waktu untuk sekedar kumpul-kumpul bareng keluarga :-) Sempet mampir ke Jawa Tengah juga karena budenya Ajeng berpulan :-(
Sekembalinya ke Belanda, ternyata Ajeng kena covid. Sepertinya ketularan pas lagi di pesawat. Studio mungil kami di Delft tidak memungkinkan bagi kami untuk tinggal beda ruangan, jadinya aku tetep beraktivitas bareng sama Ajeng, bahkan tidur di kasur yang sama. Anehnya sampe Ajeng sembuh pun diriku ga ada tanda-tanda kena Covid, hasil tes PCR pun negatif. Syukurlah!
Februari
Di bulan ini mulai serius cari rumah. Beberapa alasan untuk pindah rumah adalah karena makin lama studio ini terasa kecil. Kejadian spesial yang terjadi kemarin, seperti Ajeng kena Covid makin mendorong kami untuk cari tempat baru. Kami juga sering kerja dari rumah, dan kalau lagi sama-sama meeting online suaranya bocor satu sama lain. Dan akhirnya kami juga memutuskan untuk pindah dan beli rumah, bukan sekedar pindah. Alasannya simpel: kalau nyewa uangnya hilang, dan kalau beli uangnya ditabung. Ya kan?
Di bulan ini juga nyobain untuk nge-bid pertama kali.. Yang secara mengejutkan.. Langsung diterima. DEG-DEG-AN banget karena rumahnya emang cakep banget, masih di sekitaran Delft (yang bagi kami kotanya ideal banget), rumah tapak pula. Pastinya seneng banget karena langsung diterima. Tapiii.. Sekitar 2-3 hari setelah kami menang bid, aku selalu bangung dalam perasaan ga enak. Rumah itu indah, tapi banyak tapinya.. Pertama, cukup tua; kedua, butuh renovasi banget; ketiga, perlu overbid banyak banget buat bisa menang. Rasanya banyak sekali hal yang kita gak tau dari rumah ini dan.. Akhirnya bikin makin ga yakin. Ini bener-bener bikin aku ga bisa kerja, overthinking, ga mau makan hahaha, bahkan kayanya turun 2 kg dalam waktu kurang dari seminggu. Akhirnya kami mutusin untuk mundur dari proses pembelian rumah itu :-(
Maret
Beberapan weekend yang cukup berkesan: ketemu kenalan sodara dari Surabaya, terus ketemu temen kuliah di Amsterdam yang akhirnya kita jalan-jalan seharian (bener-bener dari pagi sampe malem di Amsterdam). Capek tapi seru! Ini juga salah satu hal yang disenengin dari 2022 sih, karena pandemi udah mereda, jadi hampir setiap weekend ada jadwal main/ketemu orang :-)
Di bulan ini juga ada berantem sama istri hehehe. Ya normal lah namanya manusia hidup bareng, pasti akan ada konflik. Tapi yang satu ini mungkin salah satu yang terheboh, tapi sekaligus jadi salah satu yang kami bisa belajar banyak atas satu sama lain. Detail berantemnya gausah ditulis lah hahaha.
Di bulan ini juga mulai lagi viewing beberapa rumah, setelah kejadian yang bikin agak down akhir Februari lalu.
April
Jadi manusia berumur 28 tahun, wadidaw umur kepala 3 makin dekat! Dikasih Ajeng kado dompet Secrid yang dibeli di Wageningen. Milih sendiri, jadinya tepat guna dan cocok :-)
Di kerjaan, mulai gabung sama proyek baru. Isinya wong londo kabeh (proyek sebelumnya juga sih). Kalo ngobrol mereka kaya ga ada intensi untuk ngomong Inggris (yang mana bagus buat latihan Londo), tapi jadinya tekanan banget ke diri sendiri hahaha. Yowis memang harus dihadapi. Proyeknya juga bener-bener kerasa kaya proyek beneran, karena ini berupa proyek yang di-deploy ke Production (bukan kaya proyek sebelumya yang lebih banyak eksperimen).
April ini juga beririsan sama bulan Ramadhan, jadinya puasa. Puasa tahun ini ga terlalu terasa berat, karena paling lama "cuma" jam 9 malem udah buka puasa. Dibandingin sama puasa pertama di Belanda di tahun 2017, itu buka puasa bisa jam 22:00-22:30, jadinya buka jam 20:30-21:00 masih oke lah..
Di akhir bulan, kami coba nge-bid rumah lagi di Gouda dan dapet (lagi!). Rumahnya cakep banget, ga terlalu jauh dari Centrum, masih walking distance dari stasiun Sprinter, rumah tapak pula. Kali ini ga ada perasaan ga enak kaya sebelumnya, jadi kami bener-bener jalani proses dengan tenang dan penuh percaya diri. Sampai sebelum kami inspeksi dan tanda tangan pre-purchase agreement, si penjual yang ternyata narik diri.
Shock, karena kondisinya waktu itu kami udah di kereta banget mau perjalanan ke rumah itu. Tau-tau ditelpon makelar penjual bahwa inspeksinya di-cancel. Usut punya usut, si penjual ternyata adalah pasangan yang mau bercerai, makanya mereka mau jual rumahnya. Lalu di pagi sebelum kita mau tanda tangan, mereka memutuskan untuk kembali bersama dan gajadi ngejual rumah. Hahaha super kocak 😂 Kami juga memutuskan untuk legowo, karena pas kami viewing, ada satu kamar kecil dengan kasur bayi kecil. Kami mikir, kalau kita ngotot buat beli rumah itu, mungkin bakal ada perpecahan lagi di rumah tangga mereka, dan bayi itu mungkin bakal kena imbasnya.. Humm, di akhir hari aku dan Ajeng cuma bisa ketawa-ketawa.
Mei
Lebaran, ngebantuin KMD bikin sate padang. Total nusukin 150 sate bareng Ajeng wuhuuu. Di bulan ini juga ujian teori buat nyetir yang Alhamdulillah langsung lulus.
Di akhir bulan liburan singkat ke Luxembourg, negara kecil yang ukurannya paling seukuran satu provinsi di Belanda. Liburan yang cukup aktif dan menyenangkan. DI salah satu hari kita hiking di suatu bentang alam di dekat Kota Echternach. Rutenya relatif ringan, cakep deh, total jalan sekitar 20 km di hari itu doang. Balik ke Kota Luxembourg, ternyata lagi ada marathon, jadinya nontonin orang lari rame-rame. Alhasil ga dapet tram karena semua orang berebut mau masuk. Capek, mana sehabis jalan panjang seharian, jadinya makan pasta di Vapiano yang uwenak.
Di bulan ini juga viewing ke apartemen tempat kita tinggal sekarang :-)
Juni
Tanggal 1 banget memberanikan diri untuk nge-bid ke apartemen di Voorburg yang langsung diterima di hari itu juga. Alhamdulillah :-) Kali ini bener-bener no drama, inspeksi lancar, komunikasi sama penjual, makelar dan penasehat macem-macem juga lancar. Sepertinya memang jodohnya hohoho.
Pertengahan bulan ikutan Inburgeringsexamen demi kehidupan yang tidak terikat pada pihak manapun. Sengaja ambil hampir semua ujian dalam satu hari, jadinya cuti seharian sekalian bisa istirahat. Lalu diajak temennya Ajeng untuk mampir ke rumahnya di daerah Tiel, yang deket sama perkebunan buah ceri. Jadinya kami mampir ke kebun dan metik sendiri ceri yang ginuk-ginuk dan manis-manis banget. Enak!
Di kerjaan juga dikasih kesempatan untuk jadi semacam co-supervisor di mini-project sama mahasiswa Wageningen. Jadinya di akhir bulan ada kesempatan untuk balik ke kampus, kangen sekali~ Siangnya bela-belain untuk makan di kantin chinese food favorit yang murah meriah. Rasanya masih sama, yum! Lalu diundang ke nikahan kolega orang Belanda yang bentukan acaranya unik banget. Karena doi seneng sama hal-hal berbau abad pertengahan, nikahnya di semacam museum abad pertengahan di Alphen a/d Rijn. Dengan pengantin dan pengunjungnya pake busana adat pertengahan juga. Karena saya orangnya membosankan saya mah pake batik aja hahaha.

That’s my Mother. Threatening to shoot me with her walking stick. A deadly, give-em-hell look on her incredibly cute but roguish face. Triumph also, that she’s managed to get me in the sights of her gun. You can see it in the killer glint in her eyes. It is a game we daily play. Like the incompetent and bumbling Inspector Jacques Clouseau of the French Police and his sneaky and aggressive Chinese manservant Cato in the Pink Panther movies.

Senior Prank
Firstly, I would like to let you know that I have posted new materials daily for the past two weeks! It is my sincere hope that you are enjoying them as much as I am. Even though one-shots are much shorter than typical short stories, I like the concept of them.
In the final weeks of the senior year of college, the excitement among the students was palpable as the year was drawing to a close. On…

Ngày 12/07/2022:
Mình và anh cãi nhau vì chuyện cỏn con, tính mình thì thích làm lớn mọi chuyện để nghe anh dỗ dành. Còn anh thì cũng bắt bẻ lại mình, sau đó mình tắt máy đi và block anh.
Anh gọi lại cho mình bằng Zalo, mình tắt đi không nghe. Anh gọi lại bằng số điện thoại và mình nghe máy. Anh dùng giọng bắt ép mình bỏ block để nghe anh giải thích.
Tụi mình sau đó đã call video và nói chuyện lại, tính mình cứng đầu, anh thì bình tĩnh giải thích cho mình. Mình chưa bao giờ nhận ra là mình là người luôn sai cho tới khi mình yêu anh. Mình biết điều đó nhưng mình vẫn cứ drama hoá mọi câu anh nói. Chắc do anh quá nuông chiều mình.
Cuối cùng thì bọn mình k cãi nhau nữa, bọn mình nói những câu tình cảm như mọi ngày và chúc nhau ngủ ngon. Bây giờ là 1 tiếng sau khi tắt máy và mình chưa ngủ được. Mình yêu anh, mình mong rằng mình có thể buông bỏ được tính xấu của mình để anh được yêu mình trọn vẹn hơn❤️

60 seconds | 12/19/21
I wrote this short story(?) a while ago. Maybe someone will read this and like it or be inspired or whatever. Anyways, please enjoy.
...
You stand at the door and a feeling of unease crawls through your body. The boy inside wasn’t responsive to your calls. You call out once more to hear nothing.
You open the door.
1 second.
He faced the wall with an expression you can only recall as inhuman. He was holding your father’s pistol with an unsteady grip. It was pointed towards his head.
2 seconds.
You made eye contact.
3 seconds.
One, two, three steps were taken toward the child. Please, no. No, don’t do this. We can fix whatever’s going on.
The boy only shook his head. He backed further towards the wall. His nose dripped onto the floor. His eyes were dim.
6 seconds.
Please.
7 seconds.
Silence.
10 seconds.
Please.
11 seconds.
His eyes drifted towards the window next to him. The sun hit his face just perfectly. You could see the exhaustion underneath his eyes, in his frown. How a child could age 10 years within a few seconds was beyond you.
It hurt to see.
15 seconds.
One more step and you were almost upon him. Slowly, slowly, slowly, slowly your arms crept forward. Towards the boy. Towards the gun.
25 seconds.
So close.
He didn’t even realize you were there. Until he did.
30 seconds.
The boy, the poor child, fearfully crashed into the desk behind him, screaming.
No. No.
GO AWAY.
.
.
.
You lunged.
35 seconds.
You lunged.
35 seconds.
You lunged.
35 seconds.
.
.
.
BOOM.
36 seconds.
Blue walls now painted red.
Wood tiles now slick with what once was your brother.
The gun clatters to the floor.
40 seconds.
It’s quiet.
41 seconds.
Red.
Pink.
Such colors should never be as horrifying as they are now. Such violent colors. Vicious colors that rip into your eyes.
42 seconds.
You should have done something. Anything.
You could have saved him.
Your hands are stained with his blood.
You’re a monster.
43 seconds.
You monster.
44 seconds.
You MONSTER.
45 seconds.
It should have been you.
46 seconds.
It’s so quiet.
47 seconds
Why is it so loud?
48 seconds.
Why.
WHY.
It should have been you.
50 seconds.
One, two, three steps were taken back, but this time, you slipped.
51 seconds.
You fell.
No... you're falling.
52 seconds.
It’s quiet.
53 seconds.
It’s so quiet.
54 seconds.
And yet,
55 seconds.
A scream pierced the air.
-
You blink and shake your head.
Oddly enough, it feels as though you’ve been here before. In front of you is your brother’s bedroom door. He’s been quiet all day; for some reason, this silence left a pit in your stomach.
You feel… uneasy.
So much so that you began to shake. Your palms form a thin film of sweat. You call out to him.
No response.
You rub your hands down your pants.
And you open the door.

Sekali-kali bolehlah, behind the scene kita modif menjadi behind the song :)
Sudah terbayang betapa mirisnya suasana hati ini saat lagu-lagu itu mengiringi.

Aku yang baru
Alhamdulillah 'ala kulli hal. Bersyukur atas segala ketetapanNya, atas segala hal yang telah terjadi.
Setahun terakhir yang tidak mudah. Banyak plan yang berubah, banyak doa yang telah dilangitkan, gagal, berjuang, dan terus belajar. Dengan keyakinan Allah tidak akan mungkin mendzolimi hambaNya. Inilah jalan hidup yang terbaik meski ya Allah rasanya gak kuat.
Setahun terakhir yang sangat berat namun menghadirkan diri yang baru. Semoga pun menjadi hamba yang lebih baik.
Sekarang mari melanjutkan petualangan hidup ini, besok kita akan bercerita kembali. Mungkin bukan lagi yang berat namun sisi lain hidup yang akan mengajarkan makna hidup di dunia ini.
Selamat belajar kembali, selamat berjuang lagi dalam mengumpulkan bekal menuju kehidupan yang abadi.
Semoga Allah ridho dalam segala upaya yang dilakukan.
