Jadi, Lebaran pending juga ?

Hari ini Kemenag sukses bikin gue cenat-cenut,galau dan makin cantik. Gimana enggak ? biasanya kan kalo sidang itsbat dilaksanakan pasti besoknya lebaran. Eh ini kagak. Padahal, ketupat bersama sayurnya dan rendang dan sambal goreng ati sudah tersedia di atas meja makan.

Setelah mendengarkan sidang itsbat yang panjang itu. Akhirnya keluar lah hasilnya..

JENG JENG JENG JENG *Drum rolls*

LEBARAN JATUH PADA TANGGAL 31 AGUSTUS 2011

Walhasil ketupat dan kawan kawan tidak bisa disantap besok. Karena takut ga ngerasain ketupat yang keburu basi. Akhirnya gue sekeluarga makan ketupat sekarang. Ya Malam ini.

Cheers

Posma (Posisi Lima)

Disini gue akan menjelaskan apa itu POSMA (Posisi Lima) mungkin sebagian dari kalian udah tau. tapi gue bakal jelasin sedikit tentang POSMA.

Posisi Lima itu adalah hukuman yang diberikan Senior kampret kepada Junior. Hukuman ini cukup populer saat masa-masa MOS (Masa Orientasi Siswa). Bagi siswa yang lain POSMA hanya dirasakan ketika MOS.
Tetapi.....

Bagi siswa yang memilih eskul kelas atas seperti PASKIBRA B) *narsis dikit* hukuman ini sering dilakukan dan merupakan hukuman yang PALING RINGAN Kenapa ringan ? karena masih ada Push-up regular , Push-Up tobat dan Push-Up Berantai. Nahloh! tapi disini gue bakal bahas POSMA di masa-masa MOS. sebagai siswa baru, hal lumrah jika dibentak atau diberi hukuman. Nah POSMA diberikan jika siswa lelet,makan gak abis, songong (sekalipun lo ga songong tapi kalo muka lo nyolotin tetep dihukum), telat dateng, etc. Dan gue termasuk sering merasakan hukuman yang satu ini.

Kesalahan gue ga banyak kok. Gue cuma Telat dateng,songong (kata Senior),makan lelet (maklum master table manner :p ) trus jadinya gue ngerasain POSMA. Dan walaupun lo ga salah, kalo ada temen lo yang salah terus kena hukuman lo WAJIB ikutan ngerasain hukuman karena KORSA (KOMANDO SATU RASA) jadi yaa nangis bareng-bareng,makan bareng-bareng, gitu gitu deh. Jadi ya gue sih seneng-seneng aja kalo temen-temen satu gugus gue mau ikutan. HAHAHA tapi gue MURKA kalo ada temen gue yang salah. Jadi aja gue kena hukuman lagi (Lah!) tapi selain keburukan dan kemurkaan tentang POSMA ada kebaikannya juga looh. Ya meskipun gue baru tau ini pas jadi Senior Cantik :p

APA KEBAIKAN POSMA ?

Kebaikannya adalah memperkuat kaki kita. kalo di Paskibra, bikin gebrakan kaki lebih mantap. kan nahan gitu tuh nah paha kita jadi kenceng gitu deh.

Eh gue punya satu puisi yang gue buat pas lagi menderita karena POSMA pas junior..
Ini Dia....

Keringat bercucuran karena POSMA
Rasa kesal selalu muncul saat POSMA
Pegal dan lelah… itu yang kurasa
Menggerutu dalam hati setiap POSMA

Aku berteriak dalam hati..
Aaaaaaa… kenapa POSMA ?
Salah sedikit POSMA…
Telat sedikit POSMA…
POSMA-POSMA kenapa harus POSMA ?

Sekian kesan dan pesan gue mengenai POSMA. Sebenarnya hukuman ini biasa aja. Cuma sebagai Junior kadang suka mengutuk sedangkan sebagai Senior selain mendidik juga bales dendam Namanya juga Hukuman. Kalo enak, ya bukan hukuman dongss :D


Cheers

Two and Half Cents

I really don't like TV shows that focus on low-income families and treat these families as somewhat entertainment-commodities. One of said shows would be "Jika Aku Menjadi". In this show, a guest star (usually a female) is required to live and work with a low-income family for a couple of days, and in between, she would cry and tell the viewers how sad she is to see how much this family "suffer" and struggle on a daily basis, and that she should be more thankful to God for having a better life than them. That boils me.

You see, doing such is no different than walking down the street and approach a random hawker and say, "oh my, your life is so tough. Thank God I have a better life". No matter how "poor" someone is or some people are, we should never belittle their status. I mean, seriously, you cry in front of someone you consider poor, because you're sad that he or she is so poor? Imagine how the poor person would feel. He/she will feel poorer, because someone is making it clearer for him/her that he/she is extremely poor.

I remember a guest star of the TV show giving her comments which more or less sounded like this: "I'm so sad, (cries), because he works so hard (cries), and it's so lonely here (cries). This man works every day picking up tree sticks and gets only Rp.10.000 a day, while I can spend so much for a single lunch (cries). There's no entertainment here, no shops, nothing. I always complain back in the city, while in fact there's so much entertainment there. We have cinemas, malls (cries). I can't imagine living his life".

And how does saying such a thing make that man feel any good?

Wouldn't it be much nicer if we actually made him feel better instead of poorer? Why do we need to emphasize on things he (currently) doesn't have and point out in front of his face that his life is "so poor"? Instead, we should appreciate his hard work whatever his "job" is, no matter how much he earns. We should remind him of how lucky he is, because he is given such good health and strength. We should tell him how much we envy his simple, humble life in the village, because life in the city is full of complexities. We should provide him the faith that he can make a betterment in life if he works harder. We should support him to never feel disheartened, for life, no matter what, works in many different ways. And we guide him with whatever knowledge or information we have, so he can be inspired. If this is done, then providing him (and his family) some cash at the end of the show as a capital for him to start a (better) job would be more relevant.

Helping people is not supposed to be done only by (giving) money. But by (giving) moral support. And respect

The Real Gryffindor

Multi-awarded actress Maggie Smith was halfway through her cancer treatment when she made Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince, starring as Professor Minerva McGonagall.

“I was hairless. I had no problem getting the wig on. I was like a boiled egg,”

she said.
The chemotherapy was, she said, “something that makes you feel much worse than the cancer itself”.

“You feel horribly sick. I was holding on to railings, thinking ‘I can’t do this’,” she said

.
But she insisted she will “stagger through” the final Harry Potter film, The Deathly Hallows.

Let’s just pause and ponder on how awesome this woman is, a true Gryffindor. She truly is an inspiration, both on and off the camera
