Rainy Days Season

It has finally come to this time of the year.

Rainy days season.

Days where you wake up to a cloudy sky and the nicest thing to do is to curl in your bed, snuggle in your warm blanket. Four pm, rather than being productive or sitting in the car waiting fro red to turn to green, I am here writing blog, looking at the raindrops falling and listening to One Direction's Little Things.

Many would belittle them for they are boyband which have its own stereotype. But I find most of their songs comforting and loving. Especially little things. It gives the feeling of incredibly loved. Women try their best to look perfect and be perfect, but this song shows how the little things that women hates are the best things that are endlessly loved. Simply, this song makes a girl feel loved and beautiful. The two adjectives a girl should feel and be reminded. A perfect song to listen to while curling up and cuddling with your pillow. If you listen deeply like I do, you'd find yourself smiling sheepishly through each words. :}

As the sun would be pretty much hidden by the clouds, my sunflowers are ready to take its place. The shoots are showing already. I saw this sunflower plant set in the store and I thought, I could use some green in my room. Other than that, I would find something to live for. Every day, looking for the shoot to grow, watching it grow taller, trying my best to keep it strong and loving the yellow flowers. Just like Izibor's song Mmm that I sing to it every day, it makes everything so simple in this crazy world. It's quite good to see that beautiful thing can grow without a fuss. So beautiful and so simple. Reminding me not to be too bullied by life, as life itself is simple.  My sunflowers are becoming one of the reason to live, number two after my future child.

Although I should be preparing my informative speech about the ugly truth of the Vietnam war and study five chapters of of Introduction to Communication, I feel that I need to get out of the cruel pictures and the deep thoughts about perception and way of communicating to give time to myself and pour out the thoughts in my head.

The car's wipers, however, is not set up for the rainy days season. It's wobbly and weak. Probably representing the driver. I wish it has more strength, and I wish for the same thing for me. I wish my breaths won't be too short after walking up the stairs. I wish I could do all the things I wanted and not getting out of energy. But since the rainy days season has arrived, let's stop all the wishing, sit back, and relax.

Wherever you are, I wish you feel as peaceful as I do. Take Sunday as a perfect day to relax not a remorseful day before Monday.



"I'm in love with you, and all these little things."

hari sabut tanggal 21/11/09 ada baksos di suatu organisasi bernama tzu chi. mama ngajak kesana untuk melihat baksos besar itu kayak apa. selain poli gigi untuk anak sekolah mereka, ada operasi minor dan mata. bangun pagi-pagi langsung jalan,sampe sana amazed banget!sekolahnya itu ada liftnya!hebat kan?di sekolah itu banyak anak-anak rusun juga anak luar.bener-bener bagus deh~!pagi aja udah banyak anak sd olahraga kayak senam gitu pokoknya keren deh.habsi dateng langsung ke tempat operasi.heheheh.

Lalu bantu-bantu di tempat mata,jadi pendamping pasien. Bertemu banyak orang. Tanya siap atau tidak. Dan saat itu,bertemu seorang oma dari Palung di Poso. Namnya oma Rosa Mbatono. Dia sangat ceria. Gak ada takut samas sekali di matanya yang memang katarak. Saat aku tanya takut atau tidak dia jawab,"Takut hanya sama Tuhan. Anakku,ini 'oleh-oleh' buat kamu. Jauh di mata dekat di hati." Benar-benar menggugah hati.hahaha.lalu kita bercerita ria.hehhe

tapi yang -paling berkesan setelah itu adalah LALU dan teman-temannya. Mereka adalah apsien sumbing dari Palung, Poso. Lalu itu umur 13 tahun. Bocah lelaki yang senang tertawa!entah kenapa dia seperti adik sendiri. Senang tertawa seperti ujung mulutnya akan menyentuh kedua matanya :)

Ngobrol dengan mereka sangatlah menarik. Mereka bercerita tentang mereka, Palung dan banyak lagi. Waktu sedang main handphone sebentar,lalu mencondongkan bafdannya ke arah handphone. benar-benar seperti anak kecil yang sangat ingin tahu. aku terkikik dalam hati dan menggeser kursiku ke sebelahnhya,"Ini blackberry. Ini handphone di Jakarta. Bisa ke internet,juga bisa foto. Mau foto?" aku menawarkannya dengan takut-takut. Tapi dia sangat riang. dan kami berfoto.hahaha.aku ikut dengannya sampai dia di infus.dan setelah itu,aku harus pulang,sedih sih. malam berikutnya sebelum tidur ingat lalu.apa sudah sembuh apa sudah balik?dan lupa bilang bahwa nanti dia juga mesti jadi orang berguna.Tapi nasi sudah menjadi bubur.dan hanya bisa berharap bahwa nantinya dia akan sadar akan tujuan penting ini.hehehe.
