Apathy

Talking about that word, first thing crossed my mind is Wang Yue. He is the 2 years old child that hit by two cars while eleven near passerby-s just apathetically walk away without even helping her. Very ironic yes.

Is apathy a result of modernization of this world? Has our people lost the humanity more day by day or it's just Chinese moral like many said?
I'm not a racist and i completely disagree with the last one.

Apathy, is not reasonless. Let me tell you a story from my day.

We studied in dentistry faculty which, everyone know, a lot of money will be spent. There's a work using the gyps. A friend of mine had just brought a plastic bag of gyps. Another friend ask her if she had any gyps left instead of buying a plastic by herself, the she gave some. And then another friend who knew it asked too, and another and another and another until when she was going to use it again, she found that the plastic had emptied.

That's not happened once or twice. Moreover, it's a common situation in my faculty. Another friend of mine even ever said,"When you bought a materials and brought it to the laboratory class, you have to ready to loose it all, though the instruction said you just need to use a little."

Well then, some student (including me) sometimes decide to "not saying out loud" (or 'hide' =D) when we have material stock during the class. Even if we knew someone need it. Apathy. But if you don't do that, yeah you has a pure gold heart, and you will run out your monthly transfered money before half of the month.

What am i saying here is, human is born as social creature. And every human does. So, how the apathy come? You probably have guess the answer : society.
Uncared environment, autocratic rules and policy, hardness of economic, how we treated by them, that will build our character. Our apathy rate.

The question comes always the same. If i were one of the passerby in Wang Yue accident, will i help her? Easy to answer by words. But when the real situation comes, will we be the good Samaritan?

The Royal Wedding

Yogyakarta also has its Royal Wedding...














Yogyakarta's Palace, Keraton Kasultanan, had just held a wedding of the Sultan's (the King) younger daughter, Gusti Kanjeng Ratu Bendara with Kanjeng Pangeran Haryo Yudanegara. The ceremony started from 16 till 18 October 2011, but what's special was at the 18.

It called "Pesta Rakyat", literally means Party for the Citizen in Yogyakarta. And there were about 200 FREE food stand (we call it "angkringan") along the Malioboro street for us to enjoy while the bride and groom did the parade in the street.
At first i thought the Sultan reserved and paid all the food stand owner for the citizen to enjoy. But later i knew that it was the sellers own willingness to give the food for free as an offering for the wedding celebration.

And that gave me an impression like,"Whoooaaa, people in Yogyakarta are unbelievably kind-hearted!!"
Suddenly, i felt very lucky having a chance to live among them.

The garland made from young coconut leaves means 
there's a wedding being held

Then, the second special thing is The Rain.
I'm not a believer, but it's not weird when almost all the city around Yogya had started to rain and Yogya still as hot as ever (my temperature often get 40 degree of Celcius at noonday). I ensured my friend, who isn't a believer either, if the rain was falling down a day after the wedding, they really declined the rain for the parade.

And IT WAS. Sudden strange rain in the middle of day at 19 October. 
What a superpower...


There it is, a little story from Yogyakarta's Royal Wedding, what might not happen in another royal wedding... Congratulation for the couple and Happy Raining day for all the citizen in Yogya!! :)

Dear Mr.Adam

This is what i had been doing last several days :



They might looks like curly rubbish wire, but in the right hand, they could become a much much money.
They called :
ADAM CLASPS
Adam' clasp is a clasp designed by C. Philip Adams to stabilize removable appliances by engaging the mesiobuccal and distobuccal surfaces of buccal teeth. It's modified arrowhead design and using the buccomesial and distoproximal undercuts of a tooth for retention.

Dear Mister Adam,
I am not blaming you by creating something such complicated and hand-hurting as that. But in some case, making those things could be very frustrating and sometimes i just hope that you was created something simpler...

am must be very frustrated ...

When Need Boyfriend???

That's question come to me after some dicussion with my friends...
When the girls gathered, two things that will come up to the conversation are (1)gossip and (2)boys.

So, this is a story of my friend that finally trying to get close with someone after being single (read : jomblo) for about twenty years (yea man, TWENTY YEARS). And tell you the truth, maybe a high school student will handle it very much better...
She's jumping around when she got text from him.
She's acting hysterically just seeing him passing by in the campus.
She's screaming to us when he tagging her in facebook status.
etc, etc...
Isn't it to much?

Maybe you find that funny, but for a girl that never had a realtionship before, it's...not really, but yeah, normal. Even if you are 20 or above.

If you remember your first relationship again, maybe it's about like that, it's just happened in younger age so it's perfectly normal.
But, if that was happening in university age, you can say it's kinda silly because it's already an era where you spoke love directly in front of the person that you like and making serious commitment for the real future.

So, we do need boyfriend at least in high school. That's my assumptions (for some people).
Then we won't be in too much euphoria when someone told that he loves you (finger crossed) and won't be too desperate if it doesn't work like the fairy tale that we always dreamt
because..., you've been through this once before, haven't you? So, it's always become eeeeasier for the next.

And the bad news is, i also haven't had one...
