Profile-

 

I like the sea—-the blue ocean on a warm sunny day. The kind that would be perfect with some companies to fish out there. I like books. Exciting stories that spans across generations melting time on its way and one where reality is distorted to become something universal. My favorite color is green. Used to be black when I was much younger. Does that means people change? Does the present alters the past somehow then? I understand 5 languages but none that I master enough to brag about. I’ve lived in 3 countries, 5 cities thus far. I can’t do without music. Nowadays Ella Fitzgerald and alike calm me down. I live to eat and not eat to live. Food might as well be the key to everything! Slowness is underrated and I am learning to be in touch with it again, a real need for recalibration. I want to learn Spanish. I want to travel Southeast Asia more often (on a budget). I want to visit Jack Kerouac’s grave in Lowell, Massachusetts. I’d like to own a cat and a dog. I want to stop paying rent. I seldom remember what I dreamt about. That’s why when I do, I feel funny. Great movies are those that I’d watch again for second time and more. And like all good things, it gets better every time. I learn most from other people--constantly. Firmly believes, human are social creatures afterall. I fear not living enough. And a night under the stars might just be a tad better than blue ocean on a warm sunny day.

Aku

 

Kalau sampai waktuku

'Ku mau tak seorang 'kan merayu

Tidak juga kau

 

Tak perlu sedu sedan itu

 

Aku ini binatang jalang

Dari kumpulannya terbuang

 

Biar peluru menembus kulitku

Aku tetap meradang menerjang

 

Luka dan bisa kubawa berlari

Berlari

Hingga hilang pedih peri

 

Dan aku akan lebih tidak perduli

 

Aku mau hidup seribu tahun lagi

 

(oleh Chairil Anwar, Maret 1943)
