hidup sederhana

September 19th, 2006 by kocu

Kalau hidup bisa seperti barisan semut rasanya semua tidak akan serumit ini. yang belakang tidak akan tertahan oleh yg depan, dan sebaliknya yg depan juga tidak akan terdorong oleh yang dibelakang. semua berjalan bersama. kalaupun ada yg harus terhenti, barisan tetap dijaga rapi.

Kalau hidup bisa seperti kumpulan awan rasanya semua tidak akan serumit ini. masing masing terbang kearah mana angin bertiup, walaupun bertemu tidak akan saling menghancurkan.

Kalau hidup bisa seperti tumpukan komik di kamarku rasanya semua tidak akan serumit ini. semua berada dalam urutannya masing-masing. Terkadang ada yang keluar dan terselip, tapi dapat dengan mudah dikembalikan.

Jadi hidup itu seperti apa ya? seperti tombol pada keyboard laptopku? seperti kumpulan baju dalam lemari bajuku? atau mungkin seperti irisan apel yang baru kuhabiskan? sepertinya hidup itu hanya ada dalam mimpi. berharaplah tidak terbangun pada momen yang paling menentukan. mari hidup…

Selanjutnya?

Gw ke Surabaya hari Rabu Pagi Minggu lalu (13 Sep 06), ada Peresmian Cabang Baru Kantor (semi kantor sih) gw. Sebenernya gw gak punya hub langsung apapun dengan pembukaan cabang itu, tapi tiba-tiba dalam event tersebut disertakan Launching Website Kantor (semi kantor :p) gw. Jadilah gw mesti persiapan, bikin intro movie untuk di-Play, plus siapin server ecek2 buat akses web-nya.

Acara A (seperti Hari H atau the D Day) - nya sih tanggal Jumat Pagi (15 Sep 06), jadi gw punya 2 hari buat persiapan di sana. Syukur tidak banyak masalah, jadi semua berlangsung lancar2 aja. Kecuali soal kenyamanan kerja. Tuh Kantor Cabang baru penuh nyamuk! udah kaya sarang nyamuk malah.

Jumat Siang acara beres. Makan siang gratis buat semua (^_^) Makanannya enak jg. Abis acara gw langsung ngacir dijemput sodara pake motor. Cerita2 dikit di rumah sodara, dianter lagi ke deket hotel, beli oleh2 buat yayang, orang rumah and anak2 kantor, ciao ke bandara buat balik ke Jakarta. Yap! jd gw balik Jumat malem pesawat jam 22.20;

Gak disangka ternyata gw yg harusnya sendiri jadi bareng ama Kadiv After Sales Support Kantor (semi kantor) gw. Orangnya tinggi kakinya panjang, jadi di pesawat dia slalu milih kursi depan atau dekat pintu darurat untuk duduk. Sampe Jakarta pisah dah, dia ninggalin mobil di parkiran, sementara gw dijemput bonyok tercinta (memang anak berbakti pasti disayang orang tua ya :p hehe).

Dah, jadi selanjutnya apa ya…? Beri daku kepastian… (buat yg gak ngerti maksud pertanyaan gw, gak usah minder ya (gubrak!) — emang cuma gw ko yg ngerti :p)

punishment!

3 sahabat

September 5th, 2006 by kocu

3 orang sahabat kembali bertemu setelah terpisah belasan tahun lamanya. Dalam pertemuan itu mereka saling berbagi cerita kehidupan mereka.

Ashlay kini telah menjadi seorang pengacara terkenal, menikah lima tahun yang lalu dengan adik kelasnya saat kuliah, dan saat ini memiliki 2 orang anak laki-laki yang ekstra lincah dan sehat. Dia bercerita dengan penuh semangat dan sangat antusias mengundang kedua sahabatnya berkenalan dengan keluarganya.

Bob hidup dengan sederhana sebagai seorang pekerja di perusahaan swasta, tiga tahun yang lalu ia menikah dengan rekan sekerjanya, dan diberkati seorang anak perempuan yang cantik. Dia bercerita dengan berseri-seri dan dengan senyuman lebar yang tak tertahankan. Dia sangat bersemangat ingin memamerkan dua bidadari hidupnya pada kedua sahabatnya itu.

Charlie tertawa kecil sambil memandang kedua sahabatnya dengan senyum tulus dan mata berkaca-kaca. “Aku sangat bahagia” Ujarnya, “Aku bangga atas keberhasilan kalian, dan aku tidak sabar ingin berkenalan dengan keluarga kalian.” Dia memeluk kedua temannya sambil berbisik dalam hati, “Istriku melahirkan anak pertama kami lima bulan yang lalu, tapi aku kehilangan mereka dalam sebuah kecelakan sebulan kemudian. Sejak saat itu pekerjaanku mulai memburuk, dan akhirnya bulan lalu perusahaan memutuskan untuk memberhentikanku”.

Malam itu Charlie memulai kembali hidup yang hampir dibuangnya. Setelah beberapa bulan dia berkelut dengan dirinya sendiri, akhirnya Charlie membuka hatinya, dan ia melihat bahwa kebahagian seorang sahabat dapat menghangatkan kesepiannya.

me Against them

August 25th, 2006 by kocu

Ada sebuah pelajaran yang gw dapet dari pertandingan 17an kemaren di kantor. saat itu gw ikut lomba tarik tambang. di final, kami mendapat kehormatan bertanding dengan tim Juara Bertahan yaitu Tim Security (bayangin tuh :p hehe). Disaat-saat yang menentukan, Tim kami sempat tertarik kedepan, dan pegangan gw sempat terlepas (kondisi saat itu kami sudah 2 kali tanding dan sudah serba kaku, pegal, kram, dll semua kumpul).

Saat itu rasanya gw udah mau pasrah. Tapi entah gimana, tiba-tiba tali tersentak tertahan, beberapa milidetik waktu untuk memutuskan, kembali berjuang atau menyerah? gw kembali memegang tali, dan mulai menahan, menarik, berteriak sekuat tenaga. Apa tujuannya? bukan semata-mata untuk mengalahkan tim lawan, tapi terlebih lagi, mengalahkan diri sendiri, memilih untuk berjuang sampai titik maksimal, tidak menyerah sampai detik terakhir.

Syukur saat itu kami berhasil memenangkan pertandingan (dengar2 kami mungkin akan diminta menggantikan tim Security menjaga kantor nantinya :p hehe). Tapi pelajaran tidak selesai disini, masih banyak pilihan yang harus kita lakukan dalam hidup, pastikan untuk berfokus Mengalahkan Diri daripada Mengalahkan Orang Lain (^_^) rasakanlah kemenangan sebenarnya, bahkan kemenangan dalam kekalahan.

He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty,
and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.
Proverbs 16.32

Though one should conquer a million men on the battlefield, yet he,
indeed, is the noblest victor who has conquered himself.
Dhammapada 103

Abu Huraira reported God’s Messenger as saying, "The strong man is not the good wrestler; the strong man is only he who controls himself when he is angry."
Hadith of Bukhari and Muslim

That man is disciplined and happy who can prevail over the turmoil
That springs from desire and anger, here on earth, before he leaves his body.
Bhagavad Gita 5.23

Attack the evil that is within yourself;
do not attack the evil that is in others.
Analects 12.21

He who knows others is wise;
He who knows himself is enlightened.
He who conquers others has physical strength;
He who conquers himself is strong.
Tao Te Ching 33

once upon a time, there were these 2 frogs living as husband n wife.

One day, the wife came to her husband and said "Dear Hubby, please answer my question honestly, do you still love me?", the husband then looked at his wife and answered gently, "With all my heart, dear. I’ve been loving you all my life I couldn’t remember how it feels not to". They then smiled and looked through each other eyes deeply.

Another day, the wife came to her husband and said "Dear Hubby, please answer my question honestly, how much do you love me?", the husband then looked at his wife and strecthed his tongue, "hThihs hMhuch, dheahrh", He said. the wife then smiled in joy and kissed his husband in love.

the next day, the wife wrote a note to his husband and left him while he slept. the husband then woke up and read the note, it said "Dear Hubby, thank you for loving me all this time…" haven’t finished the reading, the husband jumped in surprise and looked at me "It is time", he said. "Yes", I replied, "It is time. Thank you for reading this, but it is time to bed, now, good night…" -to be continue-

Silent Hill vs Ant Bully

August 19th, 2006 by kocu

I watched 2 movies in 2 nights, Silent Hill and Ant Bully. I just wanna share a few thoughts about them

(WARNING!! SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT!)

Movsilhil1_1
Silent Hill:

I’m not a good fan of the Game Series, but I did play the original version (ps). The game was fine, they packed it well. Especially the not so tough hero we’re controlling. Yap, the best element of the game for me was the idea of running from enemies rather than killing them. It really fastened my heartbeat every time the monster signal was getting louder. Just as I expected from the genre.

Now, let’s move to the Movie. First of all, you should put away your Japanese/Korean Latest Horror Movie experience you’ve just had recently. This movie is a totally different style. I’ve heard some critics to the movie from both Silent Hill Fans and Non-Fans. As for me, I’ll say If you’ve at least played the game once, this movie will give you a "de javu" (as it did to me). For the Silent Hill ManiaX, you guys will feel like home (",)  And for those who’re still wondering what Silent Hill is, I’m sure this movie will give you a great experience.

Moving forward into the Movie scene, it’ll begin with a child being lured by some sort of ghost/evil to jump down by a cliff. Thanx God her mother got there on time. The child then started murmuring about wanting to go home… to Silent Hill. Not a so cool start, I say.

Movsilhil2The mother is the main character in the Movie, a bit different with the original game (the main character in the game was a man). I read some articles on Internet saying that the male character in the game has too many feminine side that they decide to have a female character. Another issue I heard was there even no male character (the Husband) in the first script. I didn’t know if it’s true though.

About the element of the Movie, The graphic was cool, the Sound Effect, the Music, the Angle, Almost every aspect of the game was cool (I swear it’ll really bring back the experience). I give each of them 7 point out of 10. And the poor side is (actually i didn’t really notice it at the movie), some dialogue is a bit out of place. Why don’t you watch the movie and seek for them :D and one more, at the most climax part of the movie, guess what’s the mother and daughter is doing (^_^) what? nope, i won’t tell :P

And Now! the Ending… All I can say is… DAMN YOU! DAMN YOU! DOUBLE DAMN YOU!! They did REALLY DAMN WELL they Really pissed me off! well, to make it simple, the ending was exactly what you expect from a Horror Mystery Movie. ENJOY! (^_^)

Movantbully
Ant Bully:

Julia Robert and Nicolas Cage?? What a unique combination for a 3D Animation Movie. The story is about learning from ant. It started with… hm… wait a minute, I can’t remember how it started. Of course :p Me and My Girl was enjoying the arcade game a little bit too much we didn’t notice the Movie has already started for 5 minutes :p haha.. what a waste (__) Anyway, the story is about a lonely boy trying to live a life without friends. I would suggest this movie for children, since they’ll learn many things in this movie. Well, it’ll be good for older people, too. Especially those without friends :p There ain’t too much to tell, but some illogic fantasy of the scriptwriter will give you a hard time with your children’s curiosity (^_^) As for an adult like me, I think I’ll prefer to watch the DVD version of this movie. ENJOY! (^_^)

I’ll Take Care of You

August 13th, 2006 by kocu
Inspired by Steven Curtis Chapman’s Song
(9 August 2006)

Waking up early, loving you more
Driving down slowly, wanting you more
Setting up my desk, a Picture of you
Checking on my mails, thinking only you

I’ll take care of you, That’s what I’ll do,
Take good care of you, I know that I’ll do

I’ve seen you love, I’ve seen you mad
I’ve heard you laugh, I’ve heard you cry
I saw your beauty, deep in your pale
I heard your tears, hidden so tight

I’ll take care of you, That’s what I’ll do,
Take good care of you, I know I’ll do

No saint I am
No perfect a Man
Those tears you cried
Some caused by this sane
Come ‘n see, this heart of mine
Come ‘n see, true love you’ll find
