terharu adalah ngirim draft skripsi jam 21:16 waktu Jakarta (yang berarti sekitar jam 11 di Jepang) terus dibales jam 21:30 waktu Jakarta. LIMA BELAS MENIT SAUDARA-SAUDARA! dan ini hari Minggu dan udah mau tengah malem.
waktu itu saya nanggepin temen saya yang nanya kenapa saya milih dosen ini jadi pembimbing skripsi dengan "nggak apa-apa yang penting gue diurusin," dan ternyata diurusinnya beyond imagination. kayak ancol gitu lah kira-kira.
terimakasih ya buuu. mulai sekarang janji nggak procrastinating lagi (meskipun dipanggil-panggil dramacrazy, meskipun dipanggil-panggil mangafox)

hello, this is my first week on my 8 semester. and yes, during my thesis semester, I plan to write things I learn throughout the months until this August.
FYI, in my uni, even though I'm majoring architecture which is a part of engineering faculty, we have to write a thesis, and not doing some kind of 'tugas akhir' like most of people doing in another uni.
one obstacle that you meet at the beginning of your thesis semester is to decide what to write about. It can be pretty time-consuming I should say. Yet exciting at the same time. I'm now in the week where I have to choose my topic (carefully) and my professor as well. And this is the week where the attack of 'not confident and insignificant' come.
At some point, I know that I have a low expectation on myself, and I'm not proud of it. When the first week's task is to decide on something, having that kind of view on yourself is not advantageous at all. And actually, it is never good.
So I think the time has come for me to realize that somehow, I gotta go through this. Got to have the determination to finish this in the next 3 months. Gotta defeat the 14 weeks ahead of me by conquering myself first. After all I will not going anywhere if I had not pass this stage, aren't I?
that is my first week on my (insya Allah) last semester. Have a good semester everyone! :D :D

do you remember that I have posted about a community project to rejuvenate a school library? Around the end of last year, some friends of mine had taken the course and they make a very awesome library that can be check here :
and another one here :
Both of the library are cool and the behind the scene parts are exciting. I'd like to participate in this kind of project again someday! hope you like it! Maybe some of the furniture would inspire you to make one in your own house. Since this is a (less than 2 months) job, most of them are hand made :)

the main event will be held in Candra Naya, Gajah Mada on January 27th. It's only 25 days to the big day! I am currently working on a project with my friends, Grace, Tria, and Edwin (all architecture batch 2009) and it will be on the exhibition!

the more I think about it, the more I realize that the majority of architecture student are in some kind of love/hate relationship. you said that it waste your time sometimes, that it makes you deal with some petty little things you never know exist before, it makes you stay up all night, it makes you addicted to coffee or any drink that helps you awake, it makes you do silly things like taking photo with a holed cardboard as if you are a game board (you know, the one with bunny appeared in a hole for you to hit), it makes your skin burnt after an endless survey, it makes you look terrible in the morning because you got no sleep and you have to present things early in the morning, and so on.
As bad as it would sound, it never really gets that bad. I mean, there is always pride in noticing details that some people may not even know, it always relieving to see your display printed on time after staying up all night, it is good to know a lot types of drinks and know exactly the effect to your body (does it make you stay awake and body-ache the day after, or it doesn't strong enough, or it makes you want more, or it doesn't taste good but it makes your eyes open), it is always fun to do silly things people won't do in their classroom, it is amazing how you can find things in a place that being taken for granted after being in that place almost a whole week, and it makes you proud.
really, I have never seen someone talks about architecture (no matter how bad it is for them) without such enthusiasm.
I guess we are all suffer from the love/hate relationship with this major

one thing about architecture is that it always takes you somewhere. My friends went to Mentawai this year and Alor last year. I went to walk along the Sudirman pedestrian this semester and along Wahid Hasyim earlier this year.
last monday, it takes me to kota tua. I went for a site visit regarding my project on afair 2013 and this is what I got

iseng buka-buka folder foto terus tiba-tiba inget kalo kira-kira setahun yang lalu, saya ikutan acara archicare.
Archicare itu salah satu prokernya anak sosma yang intinya adalah bikin workshop buat anak-anak kecil, workshopnya berkaitan dengan dunia arsitektur (semoga deskripsinya nggak ngaco) intinya kepedulian anak ars buat anak-anak yang kurang beruntung. Acaranya sih main-main, nonton film, bikin prakarya, dan ada materinya juga. Dan yang paling penting adalah gimana excitednya dan nggak bisa diaturnya anak-anak kecil itu. Disuruh kumpul kelompok tiba-tiba nggak mau, disuruh nyanyi eh jadi garing, hahaha. gitulah pokoknya, emang dasar nggak bisaeun kali ya ini sayanya.
(click to enlarge the photos)
anyway, archicare is coming to town! saya mau ikutan lagi ah,

hal paling sulit saat mau mulai ngerjain persiapan presentasi adalah niat. There's a lot in mind already, but the will hasn't come yet. Cliche, dan sebenernya dibuat-buat. Tapi entah kenapa selalu terjadi empat kali setahun, dua kali tiap semester. tiap mau uas dan uts.
kalo liat portfolio orang-orang di internet itu suka sedih sendiri kalo liat folder tugas di komputer. mereka kalo ngerjain itu penuh passion dan keliatannya emang kayak lagi seneng-seneng bukan menuhin deadline. seringnya tanya-tanya sendiri, kapaaaan ya kerjaan gue keliatannya bisa kayak gitu. salahnya adalah, yang gue lakukan cuma nanya-nanya sendiri aja, bukannya bergerak. hehehehehe. ini masalah se obvious ini kok nggak ilang-ilang juga, ya?
jadi yaudahlah, ini post tentang refleksi diri doang. soalnya lagi butek, minggu depan presentasi tapi mood ngerjain ga dateng-dateng, ngetok pintu di kepala aja nggak. huah. what am I going to do with myself? but anyway, harusnya quote-nya Edmud Bacon bener, ya : "It's in the doing that the idea come,"
happy (almost) holiday

Somehow I realized that I rarely write about my life as an architecture student.
Sebagai anak arsitektur, gue merasa hidup dalam asumsi orang banyak. Begitu ada orang yang denger kalo gue adalah anak arsitektur, secepat itu juga mereka menyebutkan meja gambar. I can't say it was wrong, though it is not entirely right. Menjelaskan pada orang-orang mengenai apa yang sebetulnya gue kerjakan menurut gue sulit. Gue menggunakan meja gambar di kampus, tapi gue tidak melakukan seperti apa yang mereka bayangkan; gambar teknik for almost 24/7, in my school, we are not doing that kind of thing.
Biasanya gue menjawab; 'nggak kok, sekarang udah pake komputer,' yang sebenarnya nggak sepenuhnya benar. gue menjawab seperti itu setelah menyesuaikan diri dengan apa yang ada di bayangan sebagian besar orang yang bertanya, bahwa kerjaan gue adalah menggambar dan menggambar.
Seriously, kalau ditanya tentang gimana kuliah di arsitektur, I believe that I will never be able to explain it in a short time. Tadi sore, secara random temen gue bilang kalo gue bisa menulis tentang anak ars, that would be interesting. Karena suruhan random itulah gue jadi kepikiran, but I'm not really sure where to start and what to tell. And that makes me come up with this idea. What about asking people what is it that they're want to know about architecture school and architecture student. Tentu saja semua yang gue tulis akan penuh dengan pengalaman pribadi gue yang mungkin tidak ditemui di sekolah lain, but anyway, if you want to know anything, just leave your feedback. thank you :)

it's kinda late since the exhibition is already over (earlier this month). But I should say this is one of the best exhibition I've ever attended. Enjoy some of my favorite works here :
 |
| entrance gate. it should have shaped heart. well, it is. I accidentally bump into one of the column (gara2 heboh temen gue mau nulis alias V3 di sebelah nama gue gara2 gue nulis jakarta pusat deket GI di deket namanya >.< maaf yaaaaaaaaa!) |
 |
| by syifa. one of my mentee waktu baru-baru maba (CIEEEEE SENIOR #gapenting) ini tekonya ngeluarin air loh. cool ya. nyala-nyala pula (weird addiction of something nyala-nyala. tau sepatu nyala-nyala, kan? gue punya!) |
 |
| ini nggak tau punya siapa. I don't really into paintings or something like that but this work is definitely ROCKS |
 |
| ini nggak tau juga punya siapa. but I love this one :3 |
 |
| this one is interesting. it made of capsule! |
 |
| and this last one caught me most. I just love it. by Ryfa (padahal gakenal) |
 |
| WHAT I LOVE THE MOST. FREE GIVEAWAY! stickers! sayangnya satu orang cuma boleh dapet 1 dari 5 stiker jadi akhirnya gue nyegat-nyegatin temen cowok gue yang lewat, nyuruh mereka nulis nama di buku tamu dannnn ngambil stikernya:3 (jadi sekarang punya TIGA!) |
If you happened to come to the exhibition,went to the board where you can write your comment and see a pictures come from 9gag with my name written not far from the picture, that's not me. definitely not me.
