Torn

By -
Have your friends or family come to you for advice? Saying that they're torn between two choices? 


Let's say that the two choices are "yes" or "no". You're confused, you don't know which one is the better choice, because you think that both yes and no are good choices. So you turn to someone, to ask for their opinion.

If you come to me, I will mostly say either yes or no, firmly. Let's say I'd go with yes. I will tell all sorts of advantages that a yes has to offer. Although, all the positive comments will be stopped with a "but".

Yes has this-and-that advantages. But, that's for my situation, from my position, I can say that. And no has here-and-there disadvantages. But, for you it's a different matter. That disadvantages may be something with a profit for you. Well, honestly. If you come and ask me which is better I'll say yes. But to you, for your position would you say yes is the better choice entirely?
Confusing, I know. I do that a lot. But what I'm saying is, if you're torn in between choices, list up the advantages and disadvantages to both choices. Mark only those that are really significant to you, change the advantages « disadvantages according to your position, according to your need and want in life.

Because, those advantages and disadvantages differ according to people's lifestyle, according people's needs, wants and position in life. 




And you wonder why I don't talk about making choices to my friends or family. And I wonder why sometimes it is hard for me to choose between two choices myself.

Masscomm

Dua, tiga hari lepas, kat Twitter heboh orang kutuk budak masscomm. Macam-macam provoke aku jumpa, orang butthurt, orang tak kisah, orang yang pujuk orang butthurt cakap "masscomm awesome", macam-macam lagila. Orang lain maybe tak peduli pun pasal benda ni, tapi yela, kalau dah kena kutuk, mestilah nak bela diri sendiri balik, kan? Ijazah Sarjana Muda Komunikasi dan Pengajian Media dengan Kepujian (Kewartawanan). Tu course aku. Aku tak cakap aku budak masscomm dah, aku cakap aku budak Journalism. Sebab apa? Sebab fundamental masscomm dah belajar masa diploma. Masa diploma, yup, aku budak masscomm. (Sekarang pun masscomm, tapi dah ada major). Sebagai budak yang dulunya suka Fizik dan bercita-cita nak sambung belajar Fizik dan kerja dalam bidang Fizik (astronomi ye, tapi kata orang macam far-fetched sangat), aku boleh nampak beza susah senang Fizik (atau subjek Sains in general la) dengan masscomm ni. Memang betul pun belajar masscomm ni senang je, tak macam belaja...

Serabut.

By -
Kepala serabut. Bukannya kerana tugasan sudah mula menimbun. Bukan juga sudah mula berasa penat kerana terpaksa berulang dari rumah ke kampus. (Rumah-kampus: 28km. Baru teringat hendak kira kilometer tengahari tadi.) Bukan juga masalah dengan kawan, bukan juga masalah dengan manusia lain. Masalahnya dalam diri sendiri. Bila kepala terlalu banyak berfikir, bila kepala tidak faham bahasa dan berhenti berfikir, mulalah merungut kepala serabut. Payah jadi manusia yang tidak tahu bila hendak berhenti berfikir, tetapi tidak pernah berfikir sebelum bercakap. Bukan seorang dua pernah berpesan, tak perlulah fikir banyak sangat. Bukan tidak pernah cuba, tetapi setiap kali kepala hendak shut down , untuk tidur, ketika itu datang idea baru untuk perkara lama. Dan idea baru itu akan dibahaskan dalam kepala sendiri, sehinggalah mata benar-benar mengantuk dan otak terlalu penat dan akhirnya tertidur begitu sahaja.  Bila bangun pagi, badan automatik akan bersiap, ambil beg, salam tang...

In just another blink of an eye.

When I was at lowest point of my life, I'd like to think that everything is unfair. I'd like to think that fate cannot be changed. I'd like to think that I'm going to be in despair forever. How stupid. Wasn't I the one who said that no matter how unlucky my life is, there will always be someone who is worse than me but are still smiling? That the term unlucky is only for the pessimist. That the fact of whether how much luck we have depended on how we get through everything in life. True, I had my share of bad days. True, I've lost things along my life. True, some of them are because of myself. Only to find out that I can enjoy the next normal day because I had my share of bad days. Only to find out that in order to gain some, I have to lose some. Only to learn that making mistakes is how I make myself better. What are you afraid of? You think that the problems you've seen are something you can't handle? Why do you think you can't han...
