They said, the modern working days and needs have changed the way everything works out. The term ‘working hard’ has evolves to ‘working smart’.

Oh, working hard is just decades away.

But, I am the kid of the 90s and I consider myself a little old fashioned for certain things. And yeah, all my favorite songs come from the year 1990s. So, I don’t mind to work hard. It’s the only thing I can do best for the whole 23 years of my life. Besides, smart is never going to be by surname anyway.

While being happy is easier to achieve, being satisfied is rather a classified issue. But I do believe satisfaction is a shortcut to find real happiness.

acceptance.

I have fallen deeper to become a self hated person lately. You know, the time when you feel inferior to other people, the dark force. I thought everybody is way better, way smarter and luckier than me, and I am the only one who will be left behind. In many case, yes, they do. But I know I must have something that other people don’t have. To be honest, I realized that is not the time we should compare ourselves with others anymore. We’re not learning on the same book anymore. The world success in my dictionary should be different with yours, because our path to the future has different route. We should be proud about what we believe in and any path we chose to be walk on.

This is more likely to resemble mine by the way :P (via workisnotajob)

I have friend continuing their study, dreaming to become a lecturer. They don’t care whether their classmate already making millions of money and grabbing the latest gadget, while they’re getting bored with Plaza Widya and still stuck in campus laboratory. Going back and forth to find scholarship, to fill the gap because higher study means higher funds.

I have friend bearing the title unemployed for almost a year, waiting to have the right career. Getting annoyed with people assumption and question about what they have been doing all this time, getting bored with rejection.

I have friend, who just got married. They graduated and became a housewife. Taking care of the house and preparing breakfast and dinner. Getting the same routine each and every day. Meeting the same people and doesn’t get socialized very much.

The thing is, all of them are proud to wear the shirt.

I should have to. And for all the good and bad in life, I should thank You.

PS: The newest episode of Glee (Born This Way, 2×18) somehow has brought back the old forgotten lesson. No, it’s not just about visual appearance (I mean, nose, four eyes, can’t sing, can’t dance, no weave, ough I just have all of that and it doesn’t matter that much :P). It is also the way you treat yourself for the rest of the life.

We should wave to April and say welcome to May. Here’s your son. Celebrating the joy, and remembering the sorrow of life. Taking chances, and racing against time. May this May be blessed.

Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worst kind of suffering.

To find one and fulfilled the journey isn’t one of the easiest. It is rather hard and sometimes annoying. But in case you find it, don’t ever think to let it go.

PS: And this week, we really say goodbye to Casey Abrams. Yeah, the most talented one is never going to win anyway.

It was quite some weeks, and I knew sooner or later my body would tire up itself. And yeah, it all came down to yesterday. Started with a little cough and ended up here, a fever. Alone, trying to type some words. So, in order to be a little bit productive, I listed some of my current favorite things and what I’ve been doing lately:

You know how I love flats. So flatsforjade offers you a collection of cool chick simple flats shoes, which I adore so much. My sisters and I browsed their collections a while ago and getting confused which one to choose from.

Since quite a while, I’ve been having a blog crush on ked’s, OmaAnna’s, and Dreamesh’s (oh, do check their own daily blogs here, here, and here, the image is courtesy of their respective websites). The fact that they’re started their own homemade lines has made me inspired to create one someday. Oh, with lots of polka, vertical lines, and batik pattern :P

Last Saturday was some of my best friends’ graduation day. I made some postcards and a little greeting card to make the day merrier. Hope you all having a blast and such a wonderful flight after this. Here some of the picture that I took from Ayu’s FB.

The big guy Lukman, our future president :P

The talented and lucky bastard Bravo, our next influential people in oil and gas industry.

Here’s what I made for all my classmates and some bestfriends (including Vita and Rizki Narindra). I attached them to the flowers I bought with a gold ribbon. I wrote several abstract lines inside a bubble on the blank space. Too bad I didn’t take the picture of the finished goods.

Here’s special postcard I made for Bravo and Lukman, two of the greatest man alive. I know someday the two of them will make history. The back side is filled with some greeting lines that each of my Fungsionaris wrote for them.

VersaEmerge’s Fixed to Zero and The Strokes’ Angles just went to the rack. Will listen it later today.

So, April is still half a glass away. Let’s pour some dancing and a little bit of rock to the ground. Have a nice weekend :D
