| Dear Akram, |
| 09.28.06 (1:36 pm) [edit] |
Assalaamu'alaikum...
Dear my brother in deen, Akram,
I don't know what in my mind. I was just lying on my bed, thinking about what blog's next post would be. Then suddenly I got your figure in my mind. I think I need to write some to you here to tell you how I am here, miles away apart from you.
Just like writing diary, I need you to know how I am now: 'miserable'. Hehehe... I mean I am very exhausted too, like you are :I. I've got my job as an English teacher in a reputable English course. I teach teenagers and private business conversation class. My boss gives me a co-teacher, she is a native from Hungary :) . About my Boss, this person is very kind, open, and friendly to me. A good listener, and Boss able to speak Japanese besides English. I just do not want to dissapoint you, Boss :) (I put uppercase to respect :). I'll keep improving myself.
I have to work there six hours a week, with salary per hour. This is an excellent job, but it actually tiring because I have my office quite far from my place (it needs about 45' to reach there by public transportation and sometimes I get home late at night, I'm burnt out ). Not great salary I receive, but I am proud of it because finally I can make money by my own (though I had no experience at all inEnglish teaching before) and I can get experience in doing this.
And my life is just getting... bit complicated because now I have to face some 'problem' with my bestfriends. About misunderstanding, future plan, and also sense of belonging and sense of loosing because one by one has to leave from my sight. I shouldn't tell you more, because it is complex and beyond control... I'm on the crossroad. I dunno... Just wish me luck to deal them.
Akram, are you still in touch with my friend via e-mail? What did you talk about?? C'mon... hide nothing from me. Well, hmmm, sometimes when I see your picture I saved on my own server, I just think that you are obviously 'angel sent from above', hehehe... you know what I mean, huh? Hehehe... Are you going to send me another pic? Hehehe... My mom&dad and some friends have seen you picture, hehehe. They do adore you by performance, a lot, hehehehe. Btw, thanks for your comments you left on my blogs. And sorry that there is someone who wrote something in Arabic words to 'offense' you a little, hehehe. I even do not understand what he wrote... Just ignore it
How's your fasting? I hope you keep busy with reading the Quran, praying, doing tarawih, curbing your emotion&anger, making zakat, qiyamul lail, etc.
How about your holiday plan? Are you going to visit your family in Tunis or keeping yourself in Paris? Waiting for your stories. Tunisia must be an exotic country... I wish someday I can go there too...hehehe, daydreamer :P...
I think I will go back to Jakarta to visit my family about a week before the Mubarak Ied. We will also visit other families in towns as usual.
OK, thanks for your time...
Deep ukhuwah,
Dita
PS: I would like to reply your poetry with poetry too, :DD. From Boyzone, it is "Shooting Star"
No one seems to think too much of me here,
and they're glad to tell it to my face,
And they're right I'm not supposed to be here,
I'm completely out of place.
Somehow there has got to be a reason,
evenings as I try to think it through,
There's a bolt from the blue,
And I see a shooting star
Set apart from all the rest
While the other stars are standing still
He's on a quest
Every night this shooting star
Dancing across the twilight sky
Cause he knows he doesn't quite fit in
and he's longing to know why, why
I feel so much better when it's night-time
That's when I can sort of disappear
When the sun is setting it's the right time
for pretending I'm not here
Sometimes I just stare into the heavens
Wondering if the answer is inside
That's when I see the light
Of my sent that shooting star
On his way to who knows where
He's the one like all the stars
But he outshines up there
And the solitary star
Is an awful lot like me
On an endless search through time and space
For a place that won't seem wrong
If we both hang on for long enough
we both somehow are strong enough
We'll find out were we belong

| my (side) job now |
| 09.18.06 (11:13 am) [edit] |
(Sambil mendengarkan lagu The Scientist-nya
Coldplay, mungkin atas permintaan
seseorang...)
Kemaren2 gue SMS Intan yang baru nyampe
Bandung, kalo gue juga pingin nitip salam buat
Sheva. Dengan segera, Intan membalas SMS itu
dengan:
"Jangan nitip salam buat dia! Cowok itu
sudah membelot dengan cara menyakitkan :-[!"
Hwaaa, huhuhuhu hehehehehehe, Intan lagi
cekcok ama Shevaaaaa... Tan, gue bisa bantu apa dong?! Tan, lu ga cerita kenapa. Gara2 dia pindah ke
Chelsea n membuat Milanisti mencak2 kemaren?
Hehehehe, relakanlah Tan, lagian kalo ke
Chelsea, mungkin B. Inggris dia bisa jadi
lebih baik... Ayolah, demi kebaikan kita juga kan, heeeeeeehehehehe... Btw, I'll be missing you so
much, Sis...karna lu harus balik ke kampung
selama semingguan...Eh, gue tetap menunggu oleh2
dari Mesir! Lu ga ada pulsa ya? Kesiaaaan de lu...
Intaaan, tadi gue udah typing ttg F & A di mari, tp karena masukan someone, jadinya ga jadiii deeeeh '_', bolak balik nih...
Alright, sekarang gue dah punya (side) job
juga: ngajar bahasa Inggris di salah satu
tempat kursus di Buah Batu. Hmmm, dah sukur2
gue diterima, eh... malah ada yang jadi
sewot... entahlah... Waktu gue cerita ke Intan
mulai dari tes tertulis, TOEFL, ngajar,
writing, ampe interview n dibilang gue
diterima, gue ngerasa gak percaya aja. N
biasa, gelagat Intan: ngomel2 kalo gue ga
boleh minder n kudu PD. Kasusnya kaya waktu
soft launching novel gue kali yaaa, hehehe...
itu mah failure to launch kali, hihihi...
Eeee, iya, kemaren2 juga ketemu Putri di sebuah cybercafe, dia
nanyain apakah ada sekuel buat novel
gue?
P: Teh, ada rencana buat TCR kedua nggak?
D: (nyengir, celingukan ke orang2 yang
memperhatikan kami, dan akhirnya menjawab)
nampaknya lagi mau nyari maisyah dulu nih,
heheheh
Sebenernya, banyak sekali yang mau gue jelasin
ke Putri, tapi karena situasi yang kemaren
ketemuan begitu, jadi sulit untuk
bicara lebih dalem. Ok, buat yang ingin
menanyakan kelanjutan TCR, ini jawaban
gue:
tentang TCR2, well, dengan amat berat hati
saya juga gak bisa memastikan apakah akan ada
atau tidak. Gagasan untuk TCR2 itu selalu ada
semenjak TCR edar. Saya dan tim manajemen,
tapi lebih banyak saya pribadi, selalu
memikirkan hal ini. TCR sudah edar pun saya
masih dimarah-marahi sama PR karena masalah
hak cipta&distribusi :)...Memang amat terbuka
kemungkinan TCR secara substansi mengalami
pelanjutan, bahkan di otak saya udah ada
frame2 skenarionya, mungkin di sini saya tidak
perlu bercerita terlalu banyak, soalnya nanti
malah jadi nulis cerita :) . Namun, karena
banyak hal, terutama karena alasan pribadi
saya sendiri dikarenakan faktor situasi dan
kondisi yang tidak menunjang, yang namanya
"TCR2" kelihatannya tidak bakal terealisasi...
Hingga saat ini, dari saya pribadi pun belum
melakukan riset maupun penulisan untuk TCR2.
Saya mengerti bagaimana kawan2 masih curious
sama kisah berikutnya, tapi, percayalah, kisah
TCR sudah berakhir hitam di atas putih seperti
itu, dan saya harap teman2 nggak perlu terlalu
kecewa karena ending yang sudah ada saya pikir
menjadi penutup yang membahagiakan dan
mencerdaskan buat kita semua. Thank you
:)"
Sementara, jika ada yang nanya tentang novel
lain yang mungkin bakal tayang:
"Sejujurnya ini adalah pertanyaan yang amat
berat buat saya pribadi. 4 hingga 5 ide novel
memang sudah ada di kepala saya dan pernah
saya utarakan ke orang2 terdekat, sampai2 saya
juga kewalahan menanggapi berbagai masukan.
Trus, bingung juga karena pinginnya kesemua
ide itu bisa rampung semua dalam waktu yang
gak berjauhan-yang artinya harus 4-5x ekstra kerja rodi :), walopun manajemen cuma minta 1. Tapi, lagi2 terbentur sama kondisi yang tidak memungkinkan yaitu keterbatasan waktu dan kesempatan riset, berhubung saat itu dan juga saat ini saya sedang fokus ke hal di luar novel. Ditambah manajemen belum bisa ngurusin saya lagi, walopun ada yang ingin TCR ini di-link ke Universal Studios atau New Line-gila saya pikir. Jadinya, ide2 yang banyak tadi mental lagi, nguap lagi, menunggu kejelasan... Jadi, tentang novel selanjutnya setelah TCR ini, ... just wait and see :)"
