Last Breath

Berkat mentoring kemaren bareng Teh Iis Dahlia, sy jadi inget kalo selama ini sy cuma mikirin masa depan yang belum tentu bakal ada. Hix9. Mumpung minggu ini gada tugas posting, ini ada lirik bagus dari lagunya Akhmed Bukhatir (walo gatau lagunya yang mana x_x). Silakan dibayangkan....

From those around I hear a Cry,
A muffled sob, a Hopeless sigh,
I hear their footsteps leaving slow,
And then I know my soul must Fly!

A chilly wind begins to blow,
within my soul, from Head to Toe,
And then, Last Breath escapes my lips,
It's Time to leave. And I must Go!

So, it is True (But it's too Late)
They said: Each soul has its Given Date,
When it must leave its body's core,
And meet with its Eternal Fate.

Oh mark the words that I do say,
Who knows? Tomorrow could be your Day,
At last, it comes to Heaven or Hell
Decide which now, Do NOT delay !

Come on my brothers let's pray
Decide which now, Do NOT delay !

Oh God! Oh God! I cannot see !
My eyes are Blind! Am I still Me
Or has my soul been led astray,
And forced to pay a Priceless Fee

Alas to Dust we all return,
Some shall rejoice, while others burn,
If only I knew that before
The line grew short, and came my Turn!

And now, as beneath the sod
They lay me (with my record flawed),
They cry, not knowing I cry worse,
For, they go home, I face my God!

Oh mark the words that I do say,
Who knows, Tomorrow could be your Day,
At last, it comes to Heaven or Hell
Decide which now, Do NOT delay !

Come on my brothers let's pray
Decide which now, do not delay ....

Our Intellectuality


We are a part of one percent of all Indonesian peoples who can study at university/institute. Most people say that we are so intelligent that studying at Bandung Institute of Technology, then they say we are the best students in Indonesia. Then we accept - their opinion that we are the smartest students in Indonesia - directly without a deep thought.

This makes us suppose that intelligence is very important to us. Supported by a sharp and keen intellect, we are so rational that our mind is our primary weapon in analyzing everything. We tend to approach things with logic. We use our intellectuality to win in academic competitions for our own prestige. We use our sharp intellect to create new technological tools but seldom have much to say about the possible future effects on our ecosystems and make many researches but we do not know whether the researches are giving advantage to individuals or society. We seem to be programmed to repeat our days and do a pretty job without improving our circumstances, without deepening our awareness, without paying attention to our realities and without seeking knowledge among the signs of nature.

We always use our superhuman brainpower but seldom try listening to our own heart - where as heart sees anything that logic could never see. Heart sees love, friendship, meanings of life, other person's needs and other hidden messages - but logic does not. Heart will find the reason of doing something and the answer of the meaning of life. Without awareness about what it means to be human, intellectuality is nothing!

My Choice, Community of ITB

I have some simple dreams: working in Indonesia, working for developing Indonesia and employing unemployed Indonesian. Then I was looking for a community which has the same desire to develop and rebuild our country, Indonesia. I was also looking for an advanced academic community which can provide science, technology and art which are needed by the society and industry; a creative entrepreneurial community which is formed by information and communication technology; a community which always evolve their member's capability, intellectuality and leadership; a community which consists of persons who are calling out the right and preventing from badness (amar makruf nahi mungkar) to each other. Now I find that community - not at other universities/institutes - not at another country - but only at the best institute of technology in Indonesia, Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB). The community of ITB, a community which I will never find at other places. That is the reason why I chose Bandung Institute of Technology to continue my study and the answer of my passion for realising the better Indonesia.

I Like Discussing


I like discussing especially with people who are courteous, kind-hearted, open-minded, honest, smart, critical, not dogmatic and not insisting. In many informal/formal discussions, they are treating others as equal as he/she treat him/her self, sharing good things each other and being constructive each other. It's interesting to talk and discuss anything (except fashion) with this kind of people because it seems like studying different thing by the different way. It always makes me know more about hidden facts and makes me more critical and more mature at analysing something than before. It also helps me open up my eyes to see any problems from the other side and the solution of the problem. Although sometimes discussion becomes a debate until the end of it, its utility forces me to discuss anything with anybody at mentoring, instant messaging, or when my friend and I take a lunch.
