My Very Own Fairy Godmother

And they lived happily ever after.

Don't you wish you could be within the happy ending tales; won't it be so freaking cool to meet the prince of your life and grab those kind of happiness in your hands?

I definitely do, I keep on wondering when will these things turn 180 degrees.

At certain times, it is so boring to be ordinary and normal; not the kind of life I wish to live in. I'm not really happy; I am dissapointed of myself for being not good, awesome, special, confident and happy enough. Everyday I give hate on my self for not being outstanding at every aspects I try; the academic grades at campus, my writings, my drawings, my friendship life, my love life..

You know, you listen to those common encouraging messages every time; be yourself, self-acceptance is important, stop pleasing others, and blah blah blah.

Easier said than done.

I know those are right, very truthful. I should do that, I'm learning to do that, I have to do that. Accepting yourself just the way you are is very hard to be done; and one of those external factors causing it because you keep on thinking how people are much, much better than you.

Every smile I give when people tell me about how successful and talented they are is actually a needle destroying my heart more.

I won't deny that I keep feeling jealousy in my heart every time someone praised anyone but me; and the 'devil' within me starts smirking every time those negative thoughts attack.

This time and this moment, I decided to rule my self from being a ferocious monster killing people within my imagination. It's self torture, and it just give me more dose of jealousy. Being jealous is just a waste of energy; it hurts me more and prevent me from stepping ahead.

No one can control me but myself.

I have to be my own fairy godmother, climbing myself out of the deep hole inside and turn that dark side into a very bright one. I have to release the more mature side of me to help myself.

I need myself to remind me that it's okay. It really is okay.

It doesn't matter whether you get a C for every subjects; it's okay if no one wants you because of your lack of skills. It's okay, you will find people way better everywhere and it's okay to give those attempts to be better.

Don't forget that it is not okay to lie to yourself. Remember to look downwards; there is 'worse' below 'bad'. Start everyday thanking God for being able to see yourself now as a living, thinking human; it's okay to be a human who needs to learn from it's mistakes.

It's okay and it's also not okay, don't forget that.

Wicked always wins!

Hi semuanya! Wah, sudah lama sekali ya aku tidak mem- post di blog ini, sudah berdebu mungkin yah saking sudah lamanya tidak digunakan. Semoga keadaan kamu baik-baik saja, ya. Dalam tulisan kali ini, aku ingin melakukan review terhadap suatu aksi teater di Broadway yang legendaris sekali dan masih kugandrungi sampai sekarang. Hayo, sudah terpikirkan kah? Aku kasih clue , deh. Berkaitan dengan penyihir, warna hijau, monyet terbang... Ya, Wicked ! Aksi teater ini pertama dilaksanakan pada tahun 2003, dengan tokoh utama yaitu Glinda (Kristin Chenoweth) dan Elphaba (Idina Menzel). Wah, kalau yang main setingkat Kristin Chenoweth dan Idina Menzel, pastinya sudah tidak perlu diragukan lagi yah kualitas musikalnya. Glinda dan Elphaba adalah siswa baru di Shiz University, sebuah tempat belajar bagi penyihir-penyihir muda di Oz. Glinda digambarkan sebagai sosok gadis berambut pirang yang sangat populer di kalangan teman-temannya, sementara Elphaba adalah gadis kikuk, idealis, dan ditakuti se...

Dear, Me (and You)

Pernahkah kamu mengecewakan dirimu sendiri, sahabat? Perasaan benci dan ketidakberanian yang begitu mengurungmu dalam sebuah sangkar baja, tidak memberimu kebebasan sejati. Tidak, bukan saja merampas kebebasan, tetapi mereka jugalah yang menghentikan laju langkahmu. Keduanya membuatmu berjalan di tempat, berhenti, atau bahkan lebih parahnya lagi; berjalan ke belakang. Sebetulnya, kamu juga harus menganalisa sebab dari penyiksaan diri tersebut. Sebuah ‘ekskresi’ yang harus dikeluarkan tanpa perlu diraih kembali. Bagaikan sang pangeran katak yang menanti kecupan sang putri, pegharapan yang terlalu tinggi bisa saja mencukai hatimu. Kemungkinan sebuah harapan hanyalah dua, entah itu akan membuat pipimu bersemu, ataulah ia akan memilukan hati cantikmu. Jadi, kita tidak perlu melakukan yang terbaik? Bukan, aku tidak berkata demikian. Kenalilah potensi dan segala pesonamu. Menurutku, tida...

'Stranded' in The Netherlands

Hoi allemaal! Hoe gaat het met jou? Getting through something new or being that 'new thing' itself is never easy. How eyes look at us as something different might be hard to be unnoticed, and how people treat us differently, might as well be difficult. The Netherlands, well known as the land of the tulips, is something very far far away from my mind. I lived in Indonesia as a little toddler, all I thought was playing, sleeping, screaming, singing and dancing. Having the chance to live and study there, never ever crossed my mind before. Destiny cannot be denied. One day, my dad was asked to live there for a couple of years. First, it was very hard having a long distance father-and-daughter relationship. We went chatting through video chat, and I, as his little girl, always talked to him everything I thought of. We usually have the night prayer together through the video chat, and it was very rough that times. Years flied away; and afterwards, my dad invi...
