Letter to Khema (1)

Dear Khema, 

It was such a pleasure time to be able to meet you. It's been too long since our last endevours. Surprisingly, I miss you from time to time. I know we've never been that close, but turns out your presence is strongly impacting my life. 

It was so nice to be able to see your face. You look so ... peaceful? You just look so different. You looked happier and I AM happy for you. Although, to be honest, I was kinda envy that, too. 

Your words kinda stuck in my head for a while, you said that life is easier without money. Then you laughed .. and I know that you're so sincere with your words. For that, I was jealous. 

I wish my life was simpler. Not worrying about money, about carreer, about "what's next". 

Oh, Khema .. 

Life is such a battleship, now. 

I wish I could told you more about it. I really missed our long conversation. Remember those days, when I can suddenly come to your room and we'd go somewhere, just us two. I miss a friend like you. Who always listen and never (ever) judge me for being the loud me. I miss how I can easily vent. 

And now, sometimes I wish I could have the life you chose. 

Khema, would you mind if I'm writing to you from time to time? I just feel so lost and lonely. I don't know where should I go and talk to. 

You don't have to reply, Khema. I just need to talk. I just need someone to listen.


Yours, 

Gita

A new perspective

Someone once told me that there is nothing wrong with changes. He said that it would give me new perspective. He said, with me being away, it would makes me appreciate the thing that I had before. And yes, sure, Lately, I have been feeling it to be true. To be away with the things that I used to hold on - makes me realize that I have been spoiled. And now, I need to learn how to survive. To learn how to be brave again. And, sometimes, inevitably -- learning how to be OK with the sound of nothingness. Of course, once in a while, I envy those people who are still surrounded by luxury things. Obviously, I would constantly complain about the absence of my old routine. And, also sometimes, I would try to run away -- find the best escape route, just to get rid of the pain. How I hate changes. I wish some things were just stay the same -- forever. But then, I won't ever learn how to fly higher. I won't grow. But then, I also kind of asking my self, ... do I real...

Mimpi saya untuk mereka - penolong skripsi saya!

Beberapa hari belakangan ini, saya jadi teringat komentar teman-teman atau orang-orang yang bertanya tentang tugas akhir saya. Sebuah pertanyaan yang sebenarnya sangat klise dan bisa saya jawab apa adanya. Karena penelitian saya berhubungan dengan orang Tunarungu, dan ternyata pas nya lagi, di try out saya yang (Alhamdulilah) ke-tiga kalinya, saya diminta untuk ganti metode sama dosen pembimbing saya. Pada awalnya, cara saya mengambil data adalah dengan metode survei dengan mengisi skala/kuestioner, lalu, karena data saya tak kunjung valid, dosen pembimbing saya yang pantang menyerah dengan penelitian saya, mengusulkan saya untuk mengambil metode wawancara untuk mengambil data. http://maxcdn.fooyoh.com Pertanyaannya adalah: "Bagaimana cara mewawancara mereka?" Pertanyaan itu sering sekali ditanyakan oleh orang-orang yang tahu mengenai seluk-beluk skripsi saya. Ada yang keheranan, ada yang merasa itu cukup mustahil, ada yang merasa saya ini becanda, atau bahkan a...
