HOW TO SPELL MY MOM ? A-M-A-Z-I-N-G

These days, December 22, all of people around the world celebrate Mothers day. This is not a big celebration like Eid or Christmas, but it has a deep meaning behind all. We were to be reminded again about the sacrifice and struggles our mom from the pregnancy until encouraging their children as now. It's not easy. 9 months she brought us wherever she's gone (with a bloated stomach): office, market, event, bathroom, or etc. But she never complained. She always enjoyed without any feelings of burden. I suddenly remember Iwan Fals songs:

Ribuan kilo jalan yang kau tempuh
Lewati rintang untuk aku anakmu
Ibuku sayang masih terus berjalan
Walau tapak kaki, penuh darah... penuh nanah

Seperti udara... kasih yang engkau berikan

Tak mampu ku membalas...ibu...ibu

Ingin kudekat dan menangis di pangkuanmu
Sampai aku tertidur, bagai masa kecil dulu
Lalu doa-doa baluri sekujur tubuhku

Dengan apa membalas...ibu...ibu....

Seperti udara... kasih yang engkau berikan
Tak mampu ku membalas...ibu...ibu  

 I have one on my laptop and...special for this day, i repeat that song again and again (hahaha). And about my mom, ugh! i can't describe anything. Essentially she is the best one. I can't live without her. Eventhough i know, i'm not deny that sometimes she makes me annoying. Sometimes i mocking her on behind when i feeling grumpy. Sometimes i like to against her when she gives me advice. Sometimes i refused when she asks me for help. And many more ' negative sometimes' which i often do with her. Oh my god, how many sins that i have  ?? I'm regret.. I don't want to be a lawless child for my maam. I hope Allah forgive me for all the sins that i do. Ameen :(

And for my maam...i'm sorry i doesn't give you a gift on this mother's day. I just have a kiss, hug, and loves for you. I'll gave it later when you coming back from office, okay? So, be careful mom, keep mature, keep 'gahool' *LOL*, keep young, keep strong, keep patience, and keep to be my mom who always understanding me. And also, thanks for your love. Thanks for your affection, thanks a lot because you already keep me during 17 years and let me grow up like now. I'm really grateful to Allah because i'm still with you. Thanks for everything mom...thanks :)

Your kid,

Labibah ♥

So, i ought grateful to Allah for this life. As long as i still has a chance to enjoy it, i don't want to complain. Keep smile and take care yourself dude... xoxo

Introduce my family

Guys, now i'll explain a little about my family. There are 3 people who will be I introduce to you.They are....

MY FATHER

From physically, he has a sweet smile. He also has a bald head and wear glasses. He always gives me advice that can push me to reach goals, for example: "Labibah, as long as you're young, use time to increase the knowledge before you regret it later" or "You must following your mother who has successfully like now. Being teacher, independent, established, smart, although her parents lived hard, but they managed to send your mother until University" and many kinds motivations which my father say. How about me? when he start to speak, i usually 'masuk kuping kanan, keluar kuping kiri' and didn't really listen what him said. Okay i know that isn't good, but at least i understand what my dad mean because he often speak it almost everyday. So, i get a little bored :)

My father is a pure Javanesse. He was born at Banyumas, Central Java arround 47 years ago. One thing that i like about him is... he will be a Royal person when had money (haha LOL!). Hey, i'm serious. He could buy anything that i want if he has money :p. And once again you should know about him: My dad very love education. He's very interested with smart people whoever they are. (Then, if you want to talk with my father, you should make sure that you are an clever person hahaha). And overall, he is my hero :)

MY MOTHER

God, what can i say about her? one word for my mom : incredible! She was born not from a rich family, but her parents had successfully pay their children's school until college level. You know what? It's all because their attempt. My grandma worked hard by selling traditional cakes at that time, and my grandfather worked as an PNS at office. My mother has been living independently since she was little. She studying at Universitas Negeri Jakarta and received a scholarship from the college. While mommy are pregnant my older sister, she had just graduated from S1, then received her doctorate which until now attached to front of her name. 

Now she is a civil servant teachers on Jakarta. Everyday she always got up so early to catch the commuter line. Yeay, I never allowed her to ride the economic train because it is very full, crowded, uncomfortable, and many criminal incidents in it. (i'm so worry). 


Oh ya, one thing that you should know about her: Mommy really like children. She is very love kids. Of course, she hate peoples who abandoned their children, peoples who mistreat their children, peoples who throw away their babies just like throw a trash, and all kinds of things that could hurt the childrens. And overall, she is my fairy :)

MY SISTER

 

I often called my sister with 'Fat Girl' hahaha. You can see in the picture, her cheeks looked so chubby and i very love to pinch her cheeks eventhough she doesn't like it (huaa she always angry everytime i doing it. She said   "OH NO!! STOP IT. I'LL GET A PIMPLE. DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND, HUH? ARRRGH) So, i stopped.

Umm...by the way, my sister are smart person. My mom and dad so proud with her. For some reason, she always excelled on academics subjects like Mathematics, Chemistry, Science, and get the highest score in report book. Hah! sometimes i felt so envy with her (yess, i can't deny that she's definitely clever than me). Why she could be so smart, while I did not catch it? She already proved that himself was successful like our mom, (read: enter IPB, then take program S1). Everybody like her! our family also very proud with her! I'm jealous yet -___-  

But I realized, I was lucky to have a smart, creative, funny, royal sister like her. She always ready to help if there are lessons that i doesn't understand. Beside, i feel so comfortable to telling all my problems with her. She could provide quality advice for me, so it would make me feel better afterwards.


Two things that you should know about her: 1. She's very loves to watching Japan drama. 2. She's very interested with everything about Japan. That's it. And overall, she is my best friends :)

So guys, that's my family :D i'm thankful to Allah SWT because he allowed me could still be with them.

UI is my goal !

Ya, tiga bulan lagi gue akan menghadapi Ujian Nasional yang jatuh pada bulan Maret 2012. Allahu akbar cepat sekali ya waktu berjalan? padahal rasanya baru aja gue duduk di kelas 3 dan merasakan bagaimana sulitnya menjadi anak kelas 3 yang sering dituntut untuk semakin giat belajarnya demi sebuah kelulusan (yes, my mom always told me that i must studying hard and she didn't allowed me to following some events! ergh ya). Okay, accept it. Now, kami tidak hanya ngomongin seputar UN aja, bahkan ancang-ancang untuk merencanakan masa depan setelah lulus juga sedang trend belakangan ini. Ngomongin Universitas, pekerjaan, dan impian-impian lainnya yang mungkin bisa terwujud setelah lulus nanti. Masalahnya, masa-masa SMA adalah yang terakhir bagi kita untuk mengenakan seragam, untuk duduk di bangku kayu yang bercat coklat, untuk jajan di kantin, atau lebih singkatnya SMA adalah closing. Selanjutnya? kita udah bebas mengenakan baju apa saja, tidak terikat peraturan apapun seperti di sekolah (yang justru akan kami rindukan nanti setelah lulus).

Well, gue pribadi sudah punya rencana untuk ke depan. Ehm, begini....insya allah setelah lulus gue mau meneruskan pendidikan ke Universitas Indonesia jurusan Sastra Inggris.  UI adalah cita-cita gue. UI adalah masa depan gue. Banyak guru besar jebolan UI yang hilir mudik di televisi dan gue optimis suatu hari nanti gue akan seperti mereka!! Oke, kenapa harus sastra Inggris? Ehm, begini pemirsa...pertama karena gue memang sejak kelas 6 SD (bayangin kelas 6 SD!!) sudah tertarik dengan negeri Ratu Elizabeth itu. Mulai dari bahasanya, orang-orangnya, keindahan alamnya, keunikannya, budayanya, pokoknya semua serba serbi Inggris gue sukai. Kedua, gue ingin memperdalam English yang gue prediksikan nanti semua buku-buku kuliah isinya memakai bahasa Inggris (walaupun tersedia juga bilingualnya). Otomatis kita harus mengerti artinya dan jika ada kalimat yang aneh, kita harus mencari tahu sampai ketemu (yeah it works babe.). Dan alasan yang ketiga ini menyangkut cita-cita gue kelak yaitu menjadi translator. Entah sebagai penerjemah untuk film, penerjemah di PBB, penerjemah buku, penerjemah tour guide, apapun itu! pokoknya yang ada hubungannya sama bahasa Inggris. 

Oke, kenapa harus UI? Karena letak kampusnya yang tidak terlalu jauh dan dekat dengan rumah mbah gue di Depok. Rencananya kalau gue keterima disana, gue akan tinggal bersama beliau dan pulang seminggu sekali ke rumah. It's easy hahaha.

Nah soal rencana masuk UI ini sudah gue sampaikan ke ibu dan bapak. Kalau bokap gue sih setuju-setuju aja, malah beliau dukung banget gue masuk UI. Bahkan beliau sudah mempersiapkan universitas cadangan swasta buat gue yang ada jurusan Sastra Inggrisnya. Hanya saja ibu masih belum yakin dengan keputusan gue ini. HELL!! beliau kayaknya udah pesimis gue bakalan susah masuk UI mengingat gue jarang sekali belajar dan malas. Pernah ketika om gue lagi main ke rumah dan beliau bertanya soal rencana gue setelah lulus nanti, gue menjawab: "Maunya sih lanjut kuliah di UI sastra Inggris, doain aja lek". Begitu gue jawab, nyokap langsung nyerocos bilang: "Halah kamu belajar aja males-malesan. Belajar dulu yang bener!!"

Yaaa tuhaan nyeesss banget rasanya di jawab begitu sama ibu sendiri. Beliau mematahkan semangat gue :( Oke mungkin maksudnya baik, tapi tetap aja setelah itu gue langsung kesel dan sedih.


Bagaimana dengan teman-teman gue?? Hmm...sebagian dari mereka ada yang ingin kuliah dan ada juga yang ingin langsung kerja. Tapi kalau gue fikir bakalan susah nyari kerjaan kalau kitanya baru bener-bener fresh graduate. Modal ijazah doang gitu? kita dituntut punya skill lho, jangan dikira gampang. Saran gue mending ikutan kursus dulu deh. Nggak lanjutin kuliah gak masalah, setidaknya kita ikutan kursus biar punya pegangan atau modal buat bekerja. Kelihatannya memang agak sedikit bingung dalam menentukan pilihan, (terutama bagi anak SMK) karena kita di hadapkan pada 2 pilihan: kuliah atau bekerja! Yap, sesuai dengan misi Pak Menteri Pendidikan aja deh, lulusan SMK di harapkan dapat membuka lapangan pekerjaan dan bisa bekerja. Intinya kita sudah di set untuk bekerja dan bekerja. Padahal guys gak usah bingung lah yaaa, kita sebenernya punya banyak kelebihan lho dibanding anak anak SMA. 


Kita selama 3 tahun sudah di persiapkan untuk melangkah ke dunia kerja. Sudah diberi bekal istilahnya mah. Contohnya: dalam SMK, kita di haruskan ikut magang atau PKL. Ya, disini kita di terjunkan oleh sekolah untuk praktek di perusahaan-perusahaan (baik negeri maupun swasta). Oleh karena itu, anak-anak SMK  gak akan kaget lagi kalau disuruh kerja. Kita bisa hidup mandiri, gak manja, dan yang penting gak tergantung sama orang tua lagi karena sudah bisa mencari penghasilan. (By the way, i suddenly remember about my experience at Trans TV. It was 1 yeras ago. Oke skip this!)

Balik lagi ke soal Universitas. So, beginilah keadaan gue sekarang. Ingin sekali merasakan bangku kuliah seperti apa. Ingin sekali mengikuti jejak ibu yang lulusan S1 UNJ dan bergelar doktor di depan namanya. Ingin sekali seperti kakak gue yang baru saja lulus S1 IPB dan akan mendapat gelar Sarjana Sosialnya, dan setidaknya...ingin sekali seperti bapak yang meskipun hanya lulusan D3 tapi beliau pernah merasakan sebagai anak kampus. (Ya ampuun kenapa jadi sedih begini saya?) T____T


Aaaaaahhhh semoga saja gue bisa seperti mereka. Kalau mereka bisa, kenapa gue enggak? Gue harus optimis. Gue selalu berdoa setiap habis salat supaya diberi jalan yang cerah untuk mencapai masa depan. Ameen ya rabb. Sekiaan____
