That’s how I called the fever which is spreading now in my house and my school. Andrea Hirata’s fever is very strong. One of the symptoms is you are going to be glued to the book. New facts have been proven. My mom and my brother are the living proof. She almost finished the book which she started to read on Sunday. Sang Pemimpi is the one she is reading right now. To our surprised she could read quite fast concerning she’s not having much time. Well, not only she is a house wife but she is also a dressmaker. So, in between her work, she took some times to read the book, I showed you the photo of her reading the book around 8 P.M. Before going to bed, she spared her time to read first. Cool Mom! She told me the book was interesting. Some of the stories felt the same as hers referring to the part when the three guy—Arai, Ikal and Jimron—had to wake up at 2 A.M. and worked as a labor before going to school. The different is in the workplace. My mom had to work at the hills in the moun...

Ini bukan cerita si Entong walaupun ada kata ajaibnya. Sudah nonton film Get Married? Lucu…aku suka awal-awalnya. Aku dan temenku ajaibku, Nur, pada hari Minggu baru saja nonton itu film. Rencana awalnya kita Cuma mau makan kwetiau seafood di Blend yang wuenak itu karena sudah lama kita tidak singgah lalu meet and greet sama salah satu pramuniaga yang kita kenal dengan sangat akrab. Sayangnya kwetiaunya walaupun ada dalam menu tapi tidak dalam kenyataannya. Jadilah kita memesan makanan yang lain tapi aku tetap kekeh sumeukeh harus ada seafoodnya makanya aku ganti dengan nasi seafood (ternyata kalau nasi seafood, hewan lautnya tidak sebanyak kalau kita pesan kwetiau seafood). Selesai makan tadinya kita berencana mengunjungi mas-mas yang lain, Mas satria bergunting (nama panggilan yang aku temukan karena di saku belakang celananya selalu dia selipkan sebuah gunting. Ya iyalah, karena dia salah satu pramuniaga di toko kain). Dia tinggal di salah satu toko kain di Pasar baru. Tapi tiba-...

Ga ada apa-apa sih kalo mau tau jawabannya. Hanya aja mereka Andra menulis lirik Sempurna yang bikin aku tiba2 terkapar dan terkulai lemas. Tepatnya bertekuk lutut, menyerah. Sebelumnya aku tak tau ada lagu judulnya Sempurna. Suatu hari aku sedang melakukan jalan-jalan di salah satu supermarket terbesar di daerahku. Maaf nama dan tempat kejadian tidak bisa disebutkan, terlalu iklan. Tiba2 kuping menangkap lirik dari lagu yang lagi diputar di supermarket itu. Aku mematung sesaat untuk menangkap lirik lagu. Dan akhirnya dapat. Keesokan harinya, seperti biasa aku datang pagi untuk cari lagu itu di internet. It’s my lucky day. Aku bisa mendapatkannya dengan gratis di internet. Sejak itu lagunya Mas Andra itu jadi lagu andalan di Komputer dan hapeku. Saking seringnya aku mendengarkan lagu itu I started to have a delusion and ambition. Rasanya bila pria itu ada (maksudnya pria yang bisa kunikahi. Aku pake kata bisa masalahnya pria yang aku ingin nikahi ada beberapa tapi unavailable. Rata2 s...

Dae Jang Geung Celebrating Idul Fitri In Every Idul Fitri our house always becomes the center of our neighborhood. Maybe it’s because we have stayed here longer than the rest. The guests will come in a very new and fresh outfit they have. We,… don’t ask. The ritual of wearing new clothes had gone for years. Even if we bought some fabrics, we couldn’t wear it since mom will never have enough time to sew them.    This is our rituals. Wake up lazily in the morning, pray, asking for forgiveness, and wait for the guests to come. Wait for a little while to make sure that all of our neighbors have visited us. Next, change the clothes to the very usual one because you are going to be busy in the kitchen making cookies. It’s been our habit to make cookies on Idul Fitri day.  New Trend So, this year we want to impress others with our look, new refreshing and odd look. The night before Idul Fitri, I suggested my sisters to...
