Nasib



"It's not fate versus freewill, it's fate AND freewill"
                                         Flash Forward, S01E11



Gue lagi demen deh nonton serial tv yang namanya Flash Forward. Ceritanya tuh pada suatu hari tiba2 semua orang di seluruh dunia hilang kesadaran pada waktu yang bersamaan selama 2 menit 17 detik. Nah pas hilang kesadaran itu masing2 orang ngeliat apa yang bakal terjadi 6 bulan dari sekarang. Seru kan? Untuk cerita lebih lengkapnya......... nonton aja sendiri! (lu kira gue dibayar buat promosi? :P)

Nah kemaren pas lagi nonton, eh ada kalimat itu tuh yang di atas, dan gua langsung keinget ama salah satu kata2 mutiara dari ortu gue (hmmm coba kalo ortu gue beneran pabrik mutiara.... kaya raya kali ye hihihi). Anyway ortu gue tuh sering bilang begini : "Lu boleh berdoa minta apa yang lu mau sama Tuhan, tapi kalo lu sendiri gak usaha ya mana bisa?"

Kalo dipikir2 ya bener juga loh..... kayak misalnya complain kerjaan gak enak, pengen kerjaan baru. Kalo cuma complain ke temen dan berdoa minta kerjaan sama Tuhan, ya paling2 Tuhan nyuruh lu jadi pastor :P
Selain giat berdoa sama yang di atas, kita juga musti usaha buat cari kerjaan. Browsing2 lowongan kerja di koran dan internet; networking sama temen2; pergi ke job fair dll dll.

Begitu pula dengan cari jodoh. Kalo lu cuma berdoa doang, ya kemungkinan ketemu pasangan kan kecil. Jadi harus usaha dengan cara pergi bareng, kenalan sama orang baru. Jangan kuper gitu loh....

Makanya gua tuh gak pernah percaya sama yang namanya fortune teller. Gua lebih percaya bahwa we are in control of our own future. Yah kecuali kalo yang namanya natural disaster ya apa boleh buat. 

Coba kalo flash forward itu bener2 terjadi...... seru kali ye? ^_^

Girlfriend / Boyfriend

I have a confession to make. Ever since I ended my last relationship, I have been feeling rather lonely sometimes. I have been introduced to many new friends and searched through many places in hope of finding a perfect companion that suits me. Finally I have narrowed the list down to 2 potential suitors, but I'm gonna have to make a choice soon.

Their profile is quite the opposite. In fact, one is a girl and the other one is a man. I know it's a bit unconventional, but you'll see why I'm falling head over heels for them.

* She's Japanese, while he comes from France.
* She likes to stay at home (TV is her best friend), while he enjoys showing off while walking down Orchard Road. Actually she does have younger sisters who enjoys the outdoors too, but they are just not as smart nor as pretty as this one.
* She is very smart, while he is hollow on the inside.
* She is cool to the touch, while his skin is as soft as a baby. But they both enjoy being touched a lot :)
* She is slim (thanks to the operation she had last year to get rid of all the excess fat), and his body is sturdy and nicely shaped.
* Just like all the girls in the world, you have to keep buying her accessories or soon the relationship will drift apart up to the point where you don't feel like touching her anymore (trust me, this is based on personal experience with her elder sister). But if you push the right buttons, she will shake and quiver to your touch.
* He, on the other hand, requires minimal maintenance. You only need to maintain good hygiene and you will have a long lasting relationship with him. This has been proven by his brothers and sisters.
* The only similarity I can find is they both come from big and rich family. Her family is a bunch of geeks, while his family is considered royalty in France (and many parts of the world).

So, which one should I choose?
Oh btw here is a picture of them with their names..... ^_^
