hundreds cell in our brain; introduction

about;
'hundreds cell in our brain' is a mini-series of my writing, about how one thought affecting another, or we can say it produces another one and that ended with us having gazillion thoughts in our mind.

warning:
you'll get bored, highly recommend to ignore the posts.

kronologis

she's in a hospital,
they don't know what is wrong,
it is a chance that she's blind all along,

she's in the hospital at 3 in the morning,
feeling pain in her chest, or was it her heart stop pumping blood.
she's dry,
she can't breath.

she had been brought to the hospital at 2 am,
she couldn't move.
not even to lift her arms or lips.
she felt overwhelmed.

she was on her chair at 1 am,
her eyes was staring, waiting.
she knew it was happening,
she has the intuition for some reason.

at 1.30
it exploded.
in her mind: "i knew it"

and if

if by hurting other people it can gives you benefit,
if being manipulative can get you to your success
if by speaking louder, people could own trust from others
and by speaking louder, would eliminate the chance of being wrong,
if silence couldn't give any help,
if people would stupidly enough believe everything on screen and print,
and if people begin to be media for them self,
and if by doing that it gives them a great life, and taste the greatness of the world,
if honest people are just truly fooling them self,
if by being honest would get you nowhere in life,
and honest people ended up working with monsters,

PLEASE
don't tell me about heaven and hell,
don't tell me about the balance in life,
and please
stop telling me about god and how i have to believe or pray.

tell me to accept

human never be satisfied

i've read so many books,
i've played so many songs
i've listen to gazillion of music.
i've wrote so many poem
i've been to half of the world
i know so many people
i've paint on too much canvas
i've shook hundreds of hands

and i still want more,

no go

it's missing the melody,
it's missing to create,
it's missing to touch the shutter button,
it's missing to write,

the brain knows,
but choose to ignore it.

safe in square

that ash tray is over used,
25 per day.
that room is foggy,
and that lung is barely breathing.

that holly mind is blocked for weeks,
that body is falling apart, every bones are in pain,
MASSIVE headache is an ogre knocking off the trees.
the blood cloth.

nothing outside is interesting enough anymore,
this square is safe,
somehow people are a bore,
that ears wont listen anymore.

that door wont open,
that legs wont move,
this brain working like factory's machines,
someone has lost interest in communicating.

those cameras has hanging so long in the closet,
that pen tablet is dusty.
those papers are piling up.
those instruments has been hiding under the bed.

someone has lost it.

and she has been praying to god ever since..
hope for a come back.



acceptance

A : i have nothing againts gayness.
i have lots of gay friends, even bi.
i don't think it's something that has to be 'cured'.
i'm pretty open minded about that. i don't mind it at all.
nowadays gay people are everywhere, and they not afraid of
showing it anymore.
that's good, cause nothing wrong about it or them.

B: hmm, so then you'll be fine if your kids turns out to be gay ?

A: ............................................ (went TOTALLY silent)

tersumbat

sesak, jalan sempit.
susah untuk melihat ujungnya.
susah.. susaaah.
semua strategi sudah dicoba, habis sudah.

beban ini tak kunjung reda,
hey!!
otakku tidak bekerja,
menjadi pengangguran selama 105 hari.
hasilnya nihil.

sesak, jalan sempit.

aku tidak berkreasi.

i look for you too long
i've looked for you everywhere
you're no where to find

where?
i've been looking forever
i've looked in the closet, every drawers, mu pockets, the washing machine, the toy box
i've looked under my bed, your bed, the sink, the car, the chair
i've looked for you behind the tv, tables, walls, doors, the fridge
you're nowhere to find

where?

it's just a tip of an iceberg

you're on top, then it makes you are higher than us, people.
average people.
you're on top now, you're smelling the air, you're touching the sky, you feel the heavinly grass on your bear feet, you feel the breeze goes through your cheeks, it's fresh, it's new.
you're on top now, which makes you very high.
you're lying on the ground, closing your eyes, covering up your ears, the grass are slightly running through your fingers, you're leaving at the moment, you're fresh, you're new.
you're not aware what is happening down there, below you. you're blinded, not seeing what is really going on outside, you've built a shield.
that shield makes you float, yet cannot be touched. you're there on top, higher than us, floating.
you're on top, and you're screaming loudly at my ears and or maybe to the world.
yes, i get it. you're on it now, higher than me, higher than any of us.
i do get it, you're on top now, and i do understand how and why. you dont need to scream more and louder, cause i do get it.
you're unusuall, you're screaming and i wont waste my energy to talk, so it makes me a listener.
i do my job, i listened to every scream.
im your audience,
and you're making a huge cookie that couldnt even fit in your own mouth.
now,
you hand me a rope, just to tied my tounge,
so i tied it. with your help.
then you run towards the light, feeling the joy, feeling the pleasure, feeling secure.
and down there is just the opposite, but you wont come down yet.
im starting to choke,
you've been feeding me the giant cookie you've made,
it makes me feel sick.
but you couldnt careless.

so..
youre on the very top now,
you feel like you're watching everything below you, knowing everything down there..
you feel..
the fact is that you're not..
not everything, you missed some, not everyone, you missed some.
then, you're still holding the ground, you're still on top of everything,
so let say, you're watching some, knowing some..
you're playing god in that little scheme.
that little scheme, is a little freakshow. you're playing god...
and oh im overwhelmed.
you're playing god, you think you're listening to everything, you're being fair, and give a good balance of justice..
you think..
no, you missed some.
you're way up there, forgetting the solid ground, forgetting that at some point you have to come down, back here.

and what it is for me is there, watching you being overjoyed by the bliss of being that far high, you smell it all, you're touching everything, grabbing, feels everything running againts your skin.

ive dived deep, into the water, climbed from the very bottom of it.
and yes,
you're on top of an iceberg, without knowing what is there at the bottom,
down deep, there is me, watching you go higher.
i should warn you, you might end up here..
but i wont,
because you're on top in a shield covered everything, and playing god.

dont scream, i get it.
dont scream, i'll already know.

aquarium

beraktifitas biasa,
berkomunikasi, berjalan, mengisi perut, dan menjalakan kewajiban.

melakukan kegiatan seperti biasa..
tidak ada beda..

dengar kabar gembira diluar sana,
tersenyum,
dibalik lapisan kaca,
kaca yang membendung, memisahkan dunia.

laluu..

kabar itu datang,
sesak dan gemuruh..
berkabung..
lama..

namun nasib,
hidup didunia berbeda, dibatasi oleh lapisan kaca.
mana ada yang dengar, mana ada yang lihat..

tidak bisa berekpresi, tidak dapat berbuat apa-apa.
aku ingin peluk! ingin ada disana, temani yang sedang berduka.
perih!

gerakkan dan suaraku terbatasi oleh lapisan kaca.
didalam aquarium bervolume besar.
hanya dapat menerima dan melihat.
tidak bisa berbuat.

karena aku tidak sampai melompat.
aku berkabung didalam.

(semoga Dwi Siti Aisyah dan keluarga diberikan ketabahan dan kesabaran)

borgol

kini semua kena tilang karena uang,
diborgol lah tangan tangan itu kedalam penjara yang memberi mereka makan.
diperas lah mereka hingga larut malam.
komunikasi pun ditiadakan.

kini semua kena tilang karena uang,
ditahan lah mereka oleh mereka yang ingin beriklan,
diharuskan lah mereka mencari kata-kata hingga si bos senang
komunikasi pun hilang

kini semua kena tilang karena uang,
demi reputasi dan jabatan,
disodorkan lah keinginan-keinginan yang harus divisualkan,
komunikasi pun melebur

kini semua kena tilang karena uang,
dijebloskanlah mereka ke dalam ruangan,
berembuklah mereka mencari ide cemerlang,
hingga hari ini tidak lagi ada kata pulang,

kini sudah pukul dua dini hari,
mereka masih ditahan untuk memperkaya diri mereka dan yang memberi mereka makan.

kini semua kena tilang demi uang,
harus begitu..

sebelum mereka yang menilang orang untuk memberi mereka makan

choke

i choked on remembering the memories,
every second of it.
im not being ungratefull, but this is..
hollow.
just that.

i choked so hard when i realized it's been so long..
i trapped my self in those 3 years.

i blame my self, not everyone.

i choked on dust and cigarettes.
i choked when i drank a fine wine.

hollow.

i dont know who could i leaned to,
and then i choked again.

i choked when everyone wasnt there and was there.
and then i stop.

and i begun to choked again when i breath the same air as you.
since then i never stop.

jobbery

job..is a particular thing that needed.
and in nowadays it become some kind of trend in my lifting.

we aggresively looking for one, and seduced the "senior" with our cv and portfolios.
AND ITS GREAT, when you get the chance to do something that you really love,
and you can feel in your heart "im gna do great" or "this is what ive been born to".

several friends of mine really got that chance,
in this point theyre starting they career trip.
And they are all so generous, they told me how its been, how they felt,
and even some of them told me how they got in.

when i saw the smile on my friends faces while they talked about their jobs i can feel the energy burst out of their body.
its a clear vision for me they are all gonna be GREAT on their jobs, and somehow i believe that they're all gna be a VIP in no time.

well. from some people this is a jobbery, its a short for Job Robbery. HAHAHA.
but i wouldnt called it that because im not desperate to get a job yet.
but,
maybe someday i will, ehm but i'd rather be the one who rob the job though.

this jobbery phenomenon is always happend evry year.
HELL YEAH.
but this will only effecting most on the people who called themself as a "fresh graduate".
they would feel the symptoms; anxiety, panic, bored of doing nothing,etc.
and im not throught that yet.
HAHAHHA.
but i believe my time will come.

so..

its the way im saying congratulations to all my dear friends who got a job.
and keep robbing a job!!

and for they who havent, as i said.
YOUR TIME WILL COME.
but dont just sit there and wait..you know, you gotta make an effort.

For up coming "fresh graduate", come and feel the jobbery phenomenon.
and ENJOY.

one thing: job isnt something that you have to get. but its something that you have to do.so maybe you could try CREATING it instead of GETTING it. then that way, you find yourself something to do, and if you have something to do and to be done, it means you have a job.

lets not get to worried about jobbery lets be a jobator!!
and wht jobator is??

JOB CREATOR..


so GOOD LUCK living life evryone.

musictising

Beberapa bulan yang lalu saya menghadiri music talkshow di kampus saya.
Music talkshow ini membahas "music protest", dengan pembicara Wendy Putranto, Cholil'erk', dan Denny Skarie. SANGAT MENARIK!.

Sambil mendengarkan saya mencatat pokok-pokok yang saya anggap menarik.
daaaaannnnnnn *tiing
muncul dengan tiba-tiba"there's a similarity between music and advertising".
COOL.

Setelah menelaah note saya dengan lumayan hikmat, saya mendapatkan beberapa poin(gak poin juga ya..)yang ingin saya share kepada kalian semua.

hmm, here i go..
protest song adalah lagu yang dibuat untuk atau sebagai gerakan untuk perubahan sosial. Biasanya yang banyak di Indonesia menyindir pemerintah, maki-maki pemerintah, dll.
dan jarang banget ada band atau penyanyi yang mengangkat tema ini, karena sangat riskan, personil dan sensitif(mungkin takut masuk penjara kali).

Efek Rumah Kaca, adalah salah satu band Indonesia yang HARUS dibanggakan, karena mereka adalah contoh band yang musiknya kebanyakan membahas isu sosial namun SANGAT digemari oleh banyak anak-anak muda.

gimana cara mereka melakukannya?

Kalo kita dengar lagu mereka, nadanya biasa saja, notasi yang mereka pakai juga tidak aneh, dan kalo liriknya diganti dengan kata yang 'menyek-menyek' akan menjadi lagu yang biasa dinyanyikan band pop melayu yang juga luar biasa ngetopnya(hmhmhmhm). Namun mereka menggunakan POINT OF VIEW yang berbeda untuk melihat isu sosial ini, sehingga menghasilkan lirik yang berbeda pula. Mereka memilih TARGET AUDIENCE yang tepat dan menggunakan STRATEGI yang tepat untuk menyampaikan pesannya tersebut sehingga mendapakan IMPACT yang tepat juga.

so, to make a good protest song, kita harus mempunyai
1.point of view/ angle yang berbeda dan unik
2.kita harus milih target audience yang tepat dan spesifik
3.Strategi penyampain yang baik(lirik dan melodi yang passss)
then you'll have a good quality song.
sehabis itu
4. proses pendistribusiannya juga harus tepat, harus disesuaikan dengan target audience, agar mereka dapat menjangkaunya dengan mudah,
(gak mungkin kalo TA nya anak muda kita jual atau kita promosinya di pasar kan?)so it has to be right.
dan proses pendistribusian ini juga harus bekerja sama dengan media.
5.Proses pemilihan media juga harus sesuai dengan TA(marketing strategy).
And for the final result..
6. The Impact
Kalo udah semua semua dilakuin dengan benar dan baik MUDAH-MUDAHAN akan mendapatkan respon yang berkenan juga, paling tidak masyarakat menyukai lagu-lagu ini dan mengetahui isinya, dan menjadi aware atas isu tersebut.

Kalo di Indonesia masyarakat udah suka ama band yang menyanyikan dan menghasilkan protest song aja udah BAGUS!! jadi belum kali ya kalo muluk-muluk akan terjadi perubahan karena lagu..
well, i said NOT YET,.hihi.

kita masuk ke dalam dunia advertising sebeeentar aja.
Di dalam advertising ada yang namanya PSA,public service announcement, iklan yang tidak komersial. Iklan ini mengiklankan masalah sosial atau masalah yang sedang ada di masyarakat, dengan goal agar masyarakat aware atau bergerak untuk mengatasi masalah ini.

pokoknya gampangnya GAK mengiklankan suatu PRODUK.

agar sebuah PSA berhasil diperlukan;
1. point of view ttg masalah tersebut secara berbeda,
2.Target Audience yang spesifik
3. Cara penyampaian pesan yang tepat untuk target audience ini.
dan akan menghasilkan
a good quality of PSA.
teruuusss..
setelah iklan jadi,harus
4. memilih media yang tepat agar dapat dijangkau target audience(marketing strategy)
5. setelah di lempar ke media PSA nya, kita bisa melihat IMPACT apakah mencapai target atau gak.
Kalau iya, berarti PSA ini berhasil..

well, bisa liat sndiri kemiripan proses pembuat PSA DAN PROTEST SONG.
mereka sama-sama membahas tentang isu masyrakat, bisa juga dibilang 'dari kita untuk kita'.
Dan untuk membuat keduanya digunakan langkah-langkah yang serupa(hanya berbeda di beberapa poin, tergantung keperluan)

jadi intinyaaaaaaa............
para Creative Director advertising BISA jadi musisi
dan
para musisi juga bisa jadi Creative director di advertising

HAHAHAHAHAHHA...
kidding..

*langkah-langkah yang sudah saya tulis di atas, tidak persis dan tidak semua seperti itu(yang ditulis hanya yang mirip saja).
