No Internet, No Life

ASSKFJDJFLHSJDKLFJSL WHERE IS MY INTERNET!?

Ehm. Apologize for being so... Whatever. It's unimportant.

Hello again, minna-san. It's been such a long time since we meet each other. About two months, isn't it? How was your day?

'No Internet, No Life,' as what they say. And yes, it is true. I didn't feel like I alive without internet. All I did is just checking my Twitter. Nothing else than that. I couldn't print my works, I couldn't search for my works, and many more. Even one of my friends thought that I died. How terrifying...

Eh, maybe I really died in a different way.

The next topic is about 'Go Back To School'. New class, new friends, new teachers, new surroundings. I don't think 'go back' really suit the present time. I mean like, 'go back' means you're going back to the place you started while now, you're going to a same place with new surroundings. It is just... not fits. I think it's better if 'Go To School Again'. Well, it is obvious. You go to your school again, you study with your friends and teachers again and doing your usual routines again. Ah, I'm being a little 'philosoph-ey' here.

Oh, talking about new friends, in our class, we got one new student from other school. She's a really fun person, very diligent and always want to learn something carefully. And guess what, she's an otaku too! Not really an otaku but kind of. She has also learned Japanese in her old school! Oh, God. I'm so envious... 

I have much improvements also in this new year of school. More active, often ask about something I haven't understand, somehow want to read the books carefully and many more. I don't even understand why there is a big slight change in myself but I'm really glad that change comes from my own self. I don't want to be forced to change, I really want to change myself from my own will. And not to forget, I thank God for what he has done for me until now.

God, thank you for giving me chances to fix my own mistakes, to have the strength you've given, to strengthen my bonds with you. Thank you very much for what you have done.


TO-DO LIST:
I AM FREE. :3


Yours sincerely,

Final Tests! Cheater Detected!?

Mood: tired, unsatisfied
Listening to: SHIVER - the GazettE
Watching: -

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Konnichiwa, minna-san. How are you today?

I am truly sorry for the late update. I'm kind of busy recently and I'm in the middle of final tests right now. So... yes. Actually, today is the fourth day of the final tests week. One day more and I will gain my freedommmmm!

Ehm. Sorry about that. 

Very well, let's get to the point now. As the title says, it seems that a cheater is detected. And how shocking it is, to know that the cheater is one of my friends - one of the best five students with high score in her class. People who hear this news keep giving comments such as: "Everyone knows she's smart. But it's proved now that she gets high score by cheating. What a disappointment."

This is truly an unpleasant incident. I shocked and I couldn't say anything while people told me about this. It's like "Yeah, what a disappointment." I don't quite understand what thing that made her cheated during the final test nor the incident itself. I heard this news not so long ago, about a day before. Well, rumors spread fast, aren't they?

I haven't verified this incident though, and tomorrow is the last day of the final tests, so I think I still have much time to verify it. There is also one more thing that sounds odd in my ear, and that is: the first person who started the rumors and how did she/he know that my friend cheated. This information can be helpful if I obtain it because the students' seats is arranged to prevent the students from cheating. How mysterious...


TO-DO LIST:
  1. Refresh the brain by surfing the net.
  2. Re-refresh the brain by re-surfing the net.
  3. Make an entry about the cheating incident.
  4. Sleep.


Yours sincerely,

Rest In Piece

Mood: feel pity, stressed
Listening to: Date A Live - Sweet ARMS
Watching: -

--------------------------------------------------------------------

It's such a long time since I don't update my notebook. Well then, konnichiwa, minna-san. How is your day? I hope it's good and better than before. *smiles*

Very well, let's start the story.


Ding, dong. The bell of break time finally rang. All students went outside of the English classroom.

What? Happily? No. We went outside UNHAPPILY and STRESSED out. This is all because of the tests. A week full of tests. Each day has about two tests. No wonder people got stressed out...

About the time I reached my classroom, I heard someone saying something. And it was the speaker of our classroom. A teacher in the teacher room announced something important using the microphone. "Attention please, all students in *censored* Junior High School. Not a long time ago, we received a news that Priest Heri died, at yesterday night. So please donate and put the donations in the envelope OSIS have prepared. Thank you."

That is so... sudden.

I mean, seriously. That surprised me. I think in this week, there are so many people who are in bad conditions, such as sick or something. But that isn't the only one thing that surprised me.

I was waiting for my car to pick me up, since school already finished. Fortunately, there was Jenni, one of my friends who also waited. But not for her car or so, she was waiting for her friend, Ferren. Thank God I still have a friend who also waited with me.

And then my car came. I waved to Jenni as I walked to the car. About the time I reached it, a friend of mine (who usually goes home by the same car with me) and his friend (who doesn't usually go home by the same car with me, but she recently goes to the boy's home by this car also) came up. The girl waved to me as I waved back to her. Then I thought, "Why don't they get in the car? Or are they have something to do?" When I reached the car, firstly I observed it. Not to check if it's safe or not, but to see if there are people in the car or not. It's kind of dumb and awkward to do that, especially when there ARE people in the car. And unfortunately, there WERE people in the car. Oh, I think I'm using too much "in the car".

The people who were sitting in the backseat waved to me and ordered me to get in the car (again). Surprised to see the owner of this pick-up-car-services and her mother, I threw a glance at the two friends of mine who already walked away. Then the owner lady suddenly said, "The girl wants to ride this car again. Mother scolded her, saying if she wants to ride this car, she must also pay it monthly like the boy. Or at least, pay it when she wants to ride. Tch, kids these days..." "Yes, and even if she really needs to ride today with the boy, there aren't any space more. The trunk is full with our bags and things," said the mother.

I blinked when I heard "the trunk is full with our bags and things". It's rare to see them preparing things like that. "Eh, do you want to go to somewhere else?" I asked. "Yes, yesterday night, Roni's dad died. We'll go to Medan to see them," said the owner lady. Roni is the name of our real driver. Up until now, he's still in Medan. 

That surprised me, second time. Two people, no, THREE people! I remember my friend's grandmother also died not a long time ago. Just what the heck is with this week!?

I really hope everything will be better tomorrow and in the next day... And Rest In Piece, Priest Heri; Mr. Roni's dad; and my friend's grandmother. God bless you there, may God always be with you.


TO-DO LIST:
  1. Pray for the three people who died. May God always be with you.
  2. Make an entry.
  3. Stressed out because of the tests. Try to commit suicide. FAILED AND WILL ALWAYS FAIL
  4. Wait for my beloved homemade made-by-mom steak. *drools*


Yours sincerely,

You Are Deserved

Mood: Tired, confused, happy
Listening to: Heart Attack - Demi Lovato
Watching: -

--------------------------------------------------------------------

"What did your right hand do, never let your left hand knows."

That is a very good quote from my English teacher (originally from Jesus in the bible.) It means whatever you did to people, don't ever let other people know. Keep it a secret between you, the people, and God.

My teacher said that over and over again to remind us to help people who need our help. And then, the problem comes...

"Students who haven't presented their groups' movie may prepare their own presentation and practice with their groups," said my teacher. "And students who already presented their groups' movie, please don't be noisy and don't disturb other groups. If you are noisy, your group's score will be zero. This also applies for the groups who haven't presented the movie."

Now I would like to ask you, what did my teacher mean by "don't be noisy and don't disturb other groups"? Yes, it meant that we (who already presented our group's movie) are allowed to have some chit-chat, but we shouldn't be noisy. Then, three students, including me, was ordered to write down any students' name who are noisy. 

One of the two students and me had some chit-chat with our friends, and we didn't write down any students' name because we thought that they are allowed to talk, to practice. But the other one (let's call him A) wrote down almost EVERY students' name in that room, including me. I mean, what the heck? Didn't he hear what our teacher said? Besides, he also had some chit-chat with his friends!

Break time came, every students in the class did whatever they want to do. Suddenly, one of our friends (let's call him B) came to A's desk and snapped him. We then realized that B knew about A wrote down every students' name, and he didn't like it. He doesn't want to end up having zero score. After that, the situation became worse. B almost kicked a chair and a table, almost had a fight with A. Fortunately, our friends, especially boys, tried to stop him and took him out from the class. A just shut up and couldn't do anything but kept silent. I thought, he deserved that. He's the one who is wrong, so he deserved those snaps. But he kept behaving like he's the one who is right. 

I felt sorry for B. I understand that he wants to have a good score, but A just messed it up. I decided to help him. I want to help those who are right, I want to find the justice. Then, with two friends of mine, I looked for my English teacher and when we met him, we explained about what happened directly. Fortunately, the teacher said, "Ah, I know A always like that. Tell the others they definitely won't have zero." So we went back to our class and told our friends to not worry about it anymore. Our friends reacted happily and relieved, also thanked us for what we did.

At that time, I was surprised. My eyes were tickling, just like there are tears which want to come out. 

My friends genuinely thanked. And I felt like, they need me. I felt so happy after that, for I just want to be needed by people. I just want to hear a genuine "thank you" from them... And I received it. I thought, "Is this a karma because I helped him?"

I didn't know how to react, so I just waved a hand, saying "you're welcome." Up until now, I still amazed by them. This is my first time receiving a genuine "thank you." I haven't received such as that before. What I've received before is just a slight "thank you" like how people always say.

I think this story ends here. I hope someday, I will receive a genuine "thank you" again.


TO-DO LIST:
  1. Make an entry.
  2. Finish homeworks.
  3. Sleep.

What Are They Even Thinking?

Mood: Irritated
Listening to: Cry Me A River - Justin Timberlake
Watching: 2013 horror games trailer for PC

--------------------------------------------------------------

*BGM: Kung Fu Fighting - Carlos Jean*

"Everyday is irritating...
Those tests were terrifying...
In fact it was really, really frightening...
And we died after we finished it..."

That lyrics expresses the most suitable feeling for today. Those tests were really difficult. We found it (also) difficult to finish the tests, especially that one.

I mean, seriously. What are they even thinking!? They haven't given us any explanations or practices, so how could we finish it!? Well, they gave us a homework though about copying programs or so. And the programs have sooooo long detailed information. Then you expected us to learn or memorize them all!?

This is crazy. The world is getting crazier as the time flows. I can't imagine about what will happen in the next 20 years.

We had an argument before we started finishing the test. Thank God for what happened next, they gave us some examples about how to do the test. You could say it's kind of cheating, but we didn't have any idea how to do it. Our mind went blank just like that. However, the examples are still examples. There were many people who found it difficult to do the test too. 

I hope this kind of thing won't happen again in the future.


TO-DO LIST:
  1. "Tests, tests everywhere..."
  2. Refresh the brain by surfing the net.
  3. Make an entry about what happened.
  4. Re-refresh the brain by playing games or have a rest.

Miracles... Do Happen

Mood: Amazed
Listening to: -
Watching: -

-----------------------------------------------------

Hello again.

I'm here (again) to update my precious notebook.

Today I felt a miracle happened to me. I can't even describe anything, I just like... amazed. Maybe miracles do happen. This thing feels odd, yet unpredictable and amazing. 

"Maybe the teacher will give me the permission to not join my extra curriculum class today..." I thought. At that time, I was having trouble between joining the extra curriculum class or finish my another work. The another work is truly irritating. In group of six, we had to make a symbol or a picture or anything by using any have-been-used things, so we used many toilet soaps. The problem was we didn't have much time to finish it. We weren't prepared.

Tomorrow I have a computer class, so I thought it's better to tell the teacher at that time. Then, we all worked hard... worked hard... covered by flour... worked hard... until our hands felt like a stone. Yes, a real stone. But the result is absolutely amazing. We called it "MAHAKARYA" in Indonesian. I think it's "SUPER-DUPER-EXCELLENT-AND-AMAZING WORK" in English. Although it was very messy.

Careful not to drop it, we brought that "MAHAKARYA" until it arrived in the Master's hand. The Master teacher observed it with a "Wow" look in his face. Probably amazed with our "MAHAKARYA." And he took a picture of it. 

WE'RE SO PROUD OF OURSELVES...

Relieved that our things were done, we cleaned the messy table we used. That was also a hard work because the table was very messy. Sticky pieces of toilet soaps everywhere. Spilled water everywhere. Flour everywhere. And our only cleaning tools: a 330ml of mineral water and a dust cloth. 

Oh, how diligent we are...

Everything's done. But I still felt uneasy because I haven't told my extra curriculum class teacher about this. "What should I do? What if the teacher gives me a bad score? What if the teacher-" My mind was going blank when I heard someone said, "Isn't the graphic design class being cancelled?"

Arrived at home on 3.30 p.m., I reached for my phone immediately. I typed to a friend, asking if it's true that the graphic design class was cancelled. And my friend replied, "Yes, it is true."

God, miracles do happen...

I-I mean, this is amazing! I even find myself hard to believe this. Maybe I've chosen the right choice. Thank you, God, for all this...


TO-DO LIST:
  1. Think again about the miracle that already happened.
  2. Make an entry about the miracle.
  3. Laugh like a crazy person while making the entry.
  4. Sleep.


Yours sincerely,
