Bulan Kesembilan

 

Saat bulan sabit pertama menampakkan dirinya

Saat semua mata tertuju ke layar kaca, bergembira

Bersyukur karena bulan yang lama dinanti telah tiba

Di depan mata, menunggu kita untuk masuk di dalamnya

Ah, mendengar kabarnya saja sudah bisa membuatku bernostalgia

Akan riuhnya pinggir jalan yang dipenuhi para pencari rupiah dadakan

Tentang bau-bau sedap masakan yang kucium dari setiap rumah menjelang berbuka

Bapak Takmir pun memukul bedugnya,

disusul suara azan yang memecah penantian panjang

Ah, akhirnya.

Manisnya air teh yang diberi satu sendok teh kehangatan cinta Ibu bisa kuteguk

Renyah dan gurihnya gorengan yang dibalut kerja keras Ayah bisa kusantap

Meskipun pandemi melanda negeri,

Meskipun adik belum bisa bergabung dengan kami sampai saat ini,

hal itu sepatutnya tidak menjadi penghalang bagiku untuk tetap menikmati saat-saat seperti ini

Sambil selalu mendoakan negeri agar selalu bisa lekas pulih dari pandemi

Sambil kembali menyeruput teh hangat dan menyantap gorengan,

pasangan yang meskipun sederhana tapi nikmatnya luar biasa

Dan terkhusus untuknya, yang masih menyelesaikan penilaian akhir di lembaga pendidikan islami

Semoga tetap kuat, tetap semangat, dan tetaa

Tahun Kembar

     Okay.      Kembali lagi kita ke dalam suatu masa, dimana orang-orang akan berselebrasi mengenai akhirnya masa revolusi bumi.      It's gonna be a whole new day tomorrow.       And I think it would be wise to look back a little, revisit what I've experienced, and by that, what I've learned during this extremely special "Twin Year" of 2020.      This year started when I was on the second semester of XII grade. I was busy preparing myself for the countless examinations that any XII graders would have to do, Pra UN I, Pra UN II, Pra UN III, Try Out I, Try Out II, and Ujian Sekolah. Aside from that, I also have to prepare myself for college, I got SNMPTN, with all its documents, requirements, etc, and since I didn't pass on that selection, it means I also got the SBMPTN test as well.     It all went fun and games, life as usual, haha-hihi, hang out here and there, life was good.   ...

Choices

          If there's one thing that is abundant in life, from the moment we know that we are responsible with our lives, up until our death, for me, that is choices. It's basically infinite. And what's strange and unique about choices are: 1) It impacts us, 2) One choice that we made will impact us on deciding which choice that we're gonna make the next time around.          For example, imagine yourself back in high school. It is 15 minutes before the first subject starts. The morning sun shines brightly over the class' rooftops, also to each and every single person that just arrived at school, including you. You walk peacefully to your class, you say hi to a couple of teachers and friends, also not forgetting that warm smile that said to be able to give your crush a diabetes. But then, as you walk slowly into the class, you put your bag next to your desk-mate, he calmly said, "Bro, tugasmu Mantan (Matematika Peminatan) uwis r...
