Am Not Ready

Gue belakangan ini, setelah mengenyam pahit manis suatu hubungan percintaan jadi ngerasa kalo gue sebener-benernya belom siap buat suka lagi sama orang. belom siap harus nahan-nahan cemburu lagi ke orang. Belom siap harus galau lagi karena seseorang. Sampe gue suka sama Dia.   * Awalnya cuma iseng, tapi akhirnya jadi menjurus ke arah bener.   * Gue pikir gue siap. Gue pikir Dia siap.   * Dan ternyata semua kebalikannya. Gue dan Dia sama-sama belom siap. Yah, seengganya gue tau gue belom. Belom apa-apa rasanya udah BT" mulu, cemburu" mulu, kesel" mulu, yang akhirnya semua berujung pada GALAU. Sumpah ini tuh perasaan paling gak enak sedunia. Gak ada obatnya. Mau galau baru putus ato galau baru PDKT semua intinya sama, berusaha membaca maksud dari tindakan-tindakan oknum yang bersangkutan.

Haha Pas udah kelar cerita terjadilah percakapan sebagai berikut, Gue: "Karma kali ya aku, dulu benci banget, eh sekarang malah gamau sama cina, maunya sama pribumi.." Dia: "Jadi sekarang kamu lagi kena  karma?" Gw: "Iya kayanya, lagi kena karma nih aku." Dia: "Oh karma, kalo aku mah anugrah.." HAP!

Procrastinate More

Whose here never procrastinate? Come on, who doesn't? All you lazy asses in front of your laptop or lying down on your comfortable bed scrolling through 9gag. I know you. Well to be fair, I do it too. On a regular basis. I guess every student knows how it feels to procrastinate. When its time to do your homework, suddenly everything else looks very very much more interesting than writing down the answer of 2+2, or maybe for art students, peeling an orange looks very much more important than drawing a perfect circle on an art paper. Well for me, when I was in the middle of my thesis, suddenly I get a clean bathroom, perfectly made bed top, shiny floor, and a new recipe to brag about all while I have nothing to add to my long abandoned chapter 2. We've all been through that, or maybe we are in the procrastination mode right now. I am. Now this is somewhat I feel important to share about procrastination. How to make it as a helper to get things done. Why is procrastinatio...
