Person Of The Year 2013 (#POTY2013)

Hello!

I just write a few (literally a FEW!) of post in 2013, but didn't realize that 2013 is nearly comes to an end. So many ups and downs happened in my life for the past year, and in that year, somehow many things have had influenced me in many ways too. And just like what I had wrote back then in 2011 about #POTY2011, I'll write the same thing for 2013. 

For you who haven't heard about it, Person Of The Year is a project about someone or something "who most affected our lives" . Two years ago on #POTY2011, I listed 4 nominees. They are Jung Yong Hwa, Nike Ardilla, Good Day's Caribbean Nut, and Running Man Korean Variety Show. The winner? it goes to Running Man which really really has affected my life, especially my life being as a final year student, haha. Are you curious about this year's nominee? If you are, please keep reading, and if you aren't, then just go back to your seat :D

So, here are the nominees for #POTY2013!

1. Dad, Where are We Going??

"Dad, where are we going?"

          This is variety show. This show makes me laugh so hard. This show gives you a lot of cuteness. This show contains 5 dads and their children who went to an outing to the countryside every two weeks. This show is full of happiness, natural life being as a kid, innocent face, innocent thought, innocent talk, and the most important is honest act! I often think about they future (who the heck am I to think about their future?hehe). It is gonna be cool if someday, when they reach their teen era, they are being gathered again, even for just one day show (my wish -_-).  My fave kid? Sometime it's Joon, sometime it's Junsu, but mostly it's Yoon Hoo! He is very considerate either towards his hyung or his dongsaeng. Arrgghh.. I'm kinda sad that this show was coming to its end of season :( But anyway, I will always rooting for you all my kiddoss!

2. Kopiko 78 Degrees

"Kopiko 78 Degrees"

         Again, it's a coffee. I'm known for being a coffee drinker, but I acknowledged my self for not being a coffee addict. I'm starting to drink coffee way back before I'm being an adult. Yes, I drink coffee ever since I'm on an elementary school. I used to finish up the coffee my dad has left before he going to work. My worst moment is when I was at my dorm (I could drink up to 3 cups of coffee a day, and it's often not an instant coffee). But now my time has been sucked up to work and barely could make the real one, so I drink it most from the packaged one. My choice goes to Kopiko 78 degrees this year. Ever since this product been launched to market, I'm falling in love with this one. It has nice taste, neither too strong nor mild. And on top of that, it really awakes you from that sleepy feel! In that short time, you already captured my heart dear Kopiko. 

*"Uuuu.u..u..u..u...u..yeah baby give me one more night"* *Kopiko 78 degrees's commercial soundtrack playing*

3. Mahardhika Muhammad

It's Dikung!

             Who is he? He is my 9 years long friend. His sat two seat in front of my seat when we're on second year senior high school. His home only take 5 minutes far by motorcycle from my house. And what has he done for being a nominee this year? We were crazy over the same thing! Korean thingy, but not as an idol, but as an artist. We see them as an entertainer. And why it has to be this year? Because I think 2013 was the craziest year of us being a fangirl and fanboy, hahaha.  We know no time for chatting along. 7 am, 10 am, 1 pm, 8 pm, 11 pm, 1 am, even at 3 am sometime we still chatting about something (that actually) unimportant, haha. 

           My bias, his bias, my preference, his preference, we discussed it, like, seriously discussing about it. We exchange a picture of our bias, like i sent his or he sent mine. I sent him Nana's picture and the he sent me GD's, Top's, etc etc. I have so many crushes actually :D We exchange newest MV. We exchange favorite dramas. We exchange the latest variety episode. We just exchange everything what we got!

4. YG Entertainment

"YG Entertainment'

               Actually, I have a big curiosity towards YG, esp towards the CEO Yang Hyun Suk. It's like, "Man, what it is in your head to be able to gather all these such talented people whom able to do good almost in everything?" Bigbang is my utmost fave. They completing each other. Bigbang is amazing, they could do their solo with the same awesomeness as when they were a group. In this end of 2013, all of them act as a solo. Starting with Daesung and his Japan promotions, then Seungri with his album, after that Taeyang with those Ringa Linga dances, and then our leader GD with the remarkable Coup de E'tat album (I loooove all his song in this album), and Top ended it with Doom Dada digital single. And how happy I am when finally they put Indonesia as one of their stop in Alive Galaxy Concert Tour back then in 2012. I'M SOOO HAPPY I MIGHT COLLAPSE! 

BIGBANG Alive Galaxy Tour - Jakarta Indonesia - Oct 2012

The concert? IT'S SUPER DUPER UBER AMAZING! The stage, the lighting, the sound, the live music, the backdancers, the properties, even the entrance queuing entry, their quality! They give quality. YG gives quality. Ah, I'm just loving them all, YG united!

5. DikkaVega

Dikka Vega

               Oh my, this couple! I know them from instagram. Just by glances I know that their account is worth to follow. I adore them. The wife is a stylist and the husband is a photographer. What a perfect couple matched by heaven. They work together overseas, and their work is awesome. Maybe I don't know about them that much, but somehow I feel they has affected my life this 2013 since I always open my instagram and feel happy just by seeing their instagram feed, haha.

6. G-Dragon

" Leader Kwon, G-Dragon "

               How I supposed to start about this man? I'm speechless already, haha. So, he is the leader of Bigbang, but has a solo activity as well. AAAH I'm going crazy if I'm speaking about GD. The point is, my 2013 life being is full of him. His music, his on tv appearance, his performance on music stage. His music set to be the most played on my playlist, since the mid 2012 with One of A Kind album until the end of 2013 with Coup De Etat album. He produced his own album, composed the lyrics, composed the song, and even produced his own label mate song. If I asked to describe GD's music, I'll tell it's a music that has full of swaaaag! The beat, the melody, the tone, all harmonized to the point it could makes you feel an eargasm. Am I praised him too much? Maybe, but who careees? haha.

               I have had seen him twice. First at Bigbang Alive Galaxy World Tour Concert in Jakarta Oct 2012, and second at G-Dragon One of A Kind world tour concert in Jakarta June 2013. YEAA I went to his solo concert! Oh my..the performance is asdfghjklasdfghjkl i can't describe it with words! 

G-Dragon One Of A Kind World Tour

I love his falsetto voice the most among Bigbang member. It makes you high high..I'm so high :D. 

             So, do you still need to ask who is the winner of 2013 Person Of The Year Project? Of course it's hiiiiiim! My genius-ly crazy GD, the one of a kind man, and the one and only my gold and diamond boy Kwon Ji Young! Saranghantaaa and congratulations!

Lets face 2014 with faith and see you on #POTY2014!

When I was sick and not going to the office :D

Alles Gute zum Geburtstag!

This is the look, that made me head over heels in love six years back then.

Your scent, your laugh, your step, your gaze. Everything turn me into that awkward girl every time I run into you. My heart beats so crazily that I think it was going to explode.

White shirt, blue jeans, white sneaker, black backpack. I do still remember the moment you came from back gate of our campuss. Six point thirty a.m, first class in such morning. Monday.

Breezy weather, a bit windy, fresh air to breathe, and a little sunflare comes through the window. Isn't it a perfect moment to fall in love?

Spending time with you was the second happiest moment of my life. The happiest being… the first time I met you. Just so you know.

Happy Birthday, my world's best energizer!

I love you. I do.

Your number #1 fan,

Putu.

Back from Hiatus!

How I supposed to start this? Haha. After a very looong time hiatus, now I'm back! It's been a very hectic, dynamic, and dilematic time for the past year. So many ups and downs happened throughout my life. Love, hate, work, friends, everything had mixed up to paint my life. Surprisingly November has come already!

This long awaited month finally comes to me. NOVEMBER. 

My Bonch's birthday, my Tabi's birthday, my super exciting to be trip, the mystical Six, Taeyang's comeback, BIGBANG single, Top's new album, Top's awaited movie: The Commitment, LDG's drama, JYH's drama, Bogor plan, and see? It's filled with a bunch of lovely things.

And also on this month, I wish I could make it! The possibilty to change everything that has been happened over almost two years.

Wish me luck! And may November being nice to all of you as we asked it to do ♥

After watching GD on youtube :D

My Supermans!

My supermans!

Suddenly, I miss them a lot. Pria-pria di atas yang selalu nemenin saya dari jaman saya kecil. Main tak umpet, main abc lima dasar, tempat curhat siang malem. We're known for being geng komplek, :p. 

Being protected, being the youngest sometime makes me happy yet a bit sad. Happy that I know I have five man as my guardian, yet sad that I know we couldn't just like back then. They had grown up being a man. Actually there was two other, but i can't find their photos. Those five boys (ang heri, wahyu, ebi, ana, ang ye), four of them already being a married man, with three of them already had a son. Only me and the peanuts left (peanuts, a nickname given for Wahyu). I'm the youngest, and he still pursue his dreams. But we both happy for the other. Play together, grow up together. It really become my precious thing in my life. 

So here I am, praying for all of you where ever you are, what ever you were being right now. Let this universe played it's role, and hope we can meet someday with all of our child :)

Ini Bukan Perjalanan Memori

Aku putuskan ini akan menjadi sebuah perjalanan memori. Kembali sejenak ke kota yang penuh kenyamanan, sebelum aku menghadapi fase hidup selanjutnya.

Ada setumpuk harapan terselip. Berharap setiap oksigen yang ku hirup sama segarnya. Berharap setiap terik matahari yang membakar sama perihnya. Berharap setiap langkah sama ringannya.

Keretaku sampai pukul lima. Langkah kaki ini aku derapkan kembali di Jogjakarta.

Embun selepas solat subuh memang sama dingin. Tetapi, ada segelintir kealfaan menghadang perlahan.

Perasaanku tidak seantusias dulu. Kamu tahu kenapa? Karena bukan kamu yang menungguku manis di gerbang Stasiun Tugu.

Lampu-lampu jalan masih sama indahnya. Kosongnya jalanan juga masih sama damainya. Jogjaku masih indah, tetapi Mengapa tidak meriah.

●●●

Sudah siang hari , dan nyatanya aku malah malas pergi karena teriknya matahari. Lalu buat apa aku kemari?

Aku seperti Mbah Surip. Bangun tidur, tidur lagi. Bangun lagi, tidur lagi.

Dan kemudian kuputuskan untuk melanjutkan niatanku kembali. Aku datang untuk memori.

Setiap jalanan yang kita lewati di kota ini. Setiap harum warung makan yang biasa kita singgahi. Aku terpaku.

Aku putuskan untuk membeli makanan dari tempat-tempat itu. Berharap ada perasaan yang sama. Berharap dapat merasakan sensasi yang serupa.

Bukan, bukan memori manis yang menghampiriku. Justru segerombol rasa getir menyeruak. Jantungku seperti terhimpit, sesak. Mataku perih, perih sekali. Bukan ini yang aku harapkan. Bukan, Tuhan.

●●●

Senja tiba. Aku berada di jalan besar sekitar bandara. Jalanan beratap langit biru mempesona. Tempat kita mengagumi perbukitan Wonosari. Tempat aku selalu meneriakkan, “lihaat..pesawatnya dekat sekali dari sini!”.

Kamu tahu? Rasa getir itu datang lagi.

Aku merindukanmu amat sangat. Semoga senja di tempatmu juga sama hangat. (Fira Basuki's words)

●●●

Hari ke dua. Aku bangun cukup pagi untuk menyelesaikan beberapa urusanku. Selepasnya, sudah aku putuskan tempat makan siang untuk hari ini.

Lokasi makan yang terpencil. Tempat makan favorit aku, kamu, dan teman-teman kita. Menemukan masakan Sunda di tanah Jawa seperti menemukan harta karun buatku. Menu sayur asem, ikan asin, dan sambal terasi yang hanya tersedia di hari Selasa dan Jumat bagai primadona di sini.

Aku coba makan dengan lahap. Aku coba makan tanpa mengingat. Seketika aku ingin mengubah tujuanku. Ini bukan perjalanan memori. Ini perjalanan biasa saja. Aku tidak ingin rasa getir menyesakkan itu datang lagi.

Kemudian hujan turun deras sekali menjelang magrib. Aku dalam perjalanan menuju sebuah toko buku. Bajuku basah, badanku dingin. Tapi aku tahu, dingin ini belum seberapa dibanding kekosongan di pikiranku.

●●●

Hari ke tiga. Aku memutuskan untuk meyudahi perjalanan ini.

Aku mulai mengingat kembali semuanya. Aku kira aku rindu pada ini semua. Aku kira aku bisa merasakan hal yang sama.

Aku rindu. Aku rindu kamu menunggu di depan pagar. Aku rindu kamu memakaikan mantel di kala hujan. Aku rindu kamu memakaikan pelindung kepala ketika tanganku penuh memegang barang. Aku rindu kamu menggenggam jariku dengan satu tangan. Aku rindu hari Sabtu yang selalu kita nantikan.

Aku menarik nafas panjang. Seketika aku merasa perjalanan ini tidak berguna. Jogjakarta memang sangat berarti, tapi ternyata kamu lah yang member arti.

Lampu-lampu jalan masih sama indahnya. Kosongnya jalanan juga masih sama damainya.

Biar memori tetap jadi memori. Percuma aku mencari-cari, toh faktanya tidak ada satupun perasaan yang aku dapatkan dengan serupa.

Selamat tinggal, Jogjakarta. Terima kasih telah menjadi tempat kami menyulam memori terbaik dalam hidup, sampai hari ini.

Yogyakarta, 4 Maret 2012.

Untuk @saesaalindra

This is for who I called, bestfriend.

Sudah lama, lama sekali. Waktu pertama kali saya bertemu dengan dia. Kami masih amat sangat belia, saking belianya bias dibilang masih jaman kuncir kuda. Muka masih lusuh, badan masih amat sangat kurus, dan kerjaan masih lari-lari teriak-teriak saja.

Sudah lama sekali, waktu kami pertama kali bertegur sapa. Kira-kira tingkat empat, empat SD tapi, haha. Saya anak baru, dia anak lama. Saya anak pemalu, dan dia anak yang sering tertawa. 

Sudah lama sekali, waktu kami duduk bersama. Waktu itu tingkat satu, Sekolah Menengah Pertama. Kita berjuang masuk di SMP favorit yang sama, kelas yang sama, dan memutuskan untuk duduk bersama. Dia anak yang rajin dan cerdas, itu yang ada di pikiran saya waktu itu. Beda sama saya, saya itu rajinnya mepet, tapi sama-sama cerdas, hahaha. Jemputan yang sama, arah rumah yang sama.

Sudah lama sekali, waktu kita sama-sama mengenal cinta pertama. Semua ditumpah-ruahkan pada buku yang sama. Pagi siang sore malam, tak pernah bosan kami bercerita. Teman, pelajaran, perasaan, semua saling dibagi rata tanpa sisa. Pulang pergi naik angkutan kota pada tingkat dua. Punya teman-teman yang sama, dan amat sangat berharga. Membentuk sebuah kelompok teman seperti anak-anak abege pada umumnya. Ada 10 orang, di mana kami berdua termasuk di dalamnya. Sepuluh orang yang sangat istimewa. Gonzed namanya.

Dan memang sudah lama, ketika kami mulai tumbuh menjadi remaja. Masuk kembali ke Sekolah Menegah Atas  favorit yang sama. Sayangnya kita tidak pernah berkesempatan satu ruang. Perjalanan mencari jati diri masih dilakukan bersama. Walaupun pernah diselingi salah paham, tapi hati kami tetap tidak bisa saling berjauhan. Tetap meminta sebuah kebersamaan. Berapapun bertambahnya teman-teman kami yang lain, dia tetap ada di lingkaran yang paling dalam. Siapapun orang-orang yang pernah singgah di hatinya, aku tahu, dan hapal urutannya :D

Kami berbeda. Dia periang, saya pendiam. Dia lebih suka berbicara, saya lebih suka mendengar. Dia lebih suka mengkritisi, saya lebih sering tidak acuh. Dia bisa pergi-pergi sendiri, saya harus ditemani. Dia rajin belajar, saya rajin menggambar, haha. Dia ikut cheerleading, saya anti cheerleading. Dia pandai ber make-up, saya pintar cuci muka. Dia punya baju warna-warni, baju saya hitam-putih-abu. Dia tidak bisa mengendarai  motor, saya bisa mengendarai motor. Dia bisa mengendarai mobil, saya tidak bisa mengendarai mobil, hahaha. Itulah kami, saling melengkapi.

Hari ini, 31 Januari 2012. Tidak butuh waktu yang lama untuk mengenang semuanya, setelah 13 tahun kita berbagi segalanya. Selamat ulang tahun, Fauziah Saesaria Alindra. Maaf aku selalu tidak bisa hadir di setiap hari pergantian usiamu selama beberapa tahun terakhir. Doaku selalu untukmu, untuk cinta dan cita-citamu. I love you, @saesaalindra. Very much. 

Jogjakarta, 31 Januari 2012

Dini hari, sembari main the sims social :D

absurdity. aku ke kanan, kamu ke kiri.

Percakapan pada pesan melalui telepon seluler pada Rabu malam.

b: neng, lg apa?

s: lagi ngawang. aku gatau ada di mana. aku lepas, aku meretas.
.
b: woy, jangan kebanyakan bengong. entar kalo lepas beneran gimana.

s:  pada siapa aku meminta, jika dunia semakin merenta. peluk cium yang kau berikan, mengapa semua terbatas angan. aku tenggelam, dalam karam.

b: wogh, apaan dah kamu ini. udah deh sini ke jogja aja.

s: kepala lelah tengadah, sandaranku hilang dalam jarak. menjejak tanah, menepi pada setiap sepi-sepi.

b: mau kamu ngarang kaya apa juga aku ga ngerti.

s: mengapa kamu diam, sayang. Diam pada kata, diam pada pelita, diam dalam kesederhanaan rasa kita. Raih aku, dengan sejumput rindu tanpa benalu.

b: sadar, sayang. sabar, sayang.

s: sadarkan aku, dari asa melaju tinggi sempurna. sabarkan aku, dari jengkalan tangan tanpa hingga.

 b: ----------- (gada balesan lagi. gakuat kayanya) haha.
