Cukupkah hanya cinta?

Bahagiakah pasangan yg menikah hanya krn cinta?

Barangkali kisah ini bisa menjadi renungan bagi kita, utamanya yang ingin berumah tangga :

Alkisah, seorang pemuda miskin bernama Yogi Prasetyo, berasal dari Purwokerto, Jawa Tengah. Keluarganya hanyalah keluarga sederhana, kalau tidak bisa disebut miskin. Ayahnya sehari-hari bekerja sebagai tukang jahit di desanya.

Karena kegigihannya, Yogi berhasil kuliah di FE UGM walaupun dengan biaya seadanya. Semasa semester 4 di kampus, Yogi jatuh hati pada seorang gadis bernama Ayu Wulaningrum, juga sama-sama kuliah di fakultas yang sama.

Ayu adalah putri seorang bupati ternama di daerah Yogyakarta dan juga masih keturunan keraton. Walaupun secara ekonomi mereka jauh berbeda, namun tidak menghalangi keduanya untuk saling mencintai.

Ayah Ayu yang mengetahui putrinya begitu mencintai pemuda dari keturunan biasa, tak mampu mencegah gelora cinta putrinya. Maka begitu keduanya telah lulus, pernikahan keduanyapun diselenggarakan dengan megah. Pesta besar-besaran digelar untuk mengiringi pernikahan putrinya.

Ayah Yogi yang tak punya banyak harta, hanya bisa memberikan bantuan sumbangan pakaian, sprei, sarung bantal, yang semuanya ia buat dan ia jahit sendiri khusus untuk pernikahan putranya.

Bahagiakah Ayu bersanding dengan Yogi ? Ternyata kebahagiaan mereka tidak berlangsung lama.

Tibalah saatnya malam pengantin tiba. Mereka berduapun memasuki peraduan dengan bahagia. Namun, ketika Yogi membuka pakaiannya dan tinggal memakai celana kolor, berteriaklah Ayu dengan keras, sebelum akhirnya pingsan tak sadarkan diri. Semua penghuni rumah dari kerabat dan keluarga Ayu pun berdatangan melihat kejadian itu.

Yogi masih dalam kebingungan dan mencari tahu kenapa istrinya histeris dan pingsan. Dilihatnya celana kolor yang ia pakai. Aduh, Yogi lupa kalau celana kolor itu jahitan ayahnya, dibuat dari kain bekas wadah tepung terigu. Di tengah celana kolor itu masih terpampang jelas tulisan, "BERAT BERSIH 25 KG".

Tentu saja Ayu langsung pingsan melihatnya. Ayu tidak bisa membayangkan seberapa besar isinya dengan berat segitu.

wekekke *nia iseng*

What would you do if you could live another life

What would you do if you could live another life just for one day? This line is quoted from "Last Chance Harvey" . I have watched this film twice and still feel so touched everytime I watch it. Kate Walker, the main character in this film, uttered this question to Harvey Shine. In this story, both of them lived a life that is not very happy-chappy. Kate lived in a pathetic, boring life; Harvey in a screwed one. When Kate asked this question, both of them seem to ponder: what if I could live a different life, just for one day, just to try out. This question makes me ponder, too: what would I do if I was given a chance to live any kind of life I want, just for one day? Where would I be? What would I do? Who would I be? Lately I have been thinking about the life I am living right now. Everything is so well-planned. I graduated from high school, went abroad to study, came back home to work, went abroad again to do my master, working in a reasonably good organisation, and going ho

Cold Feet

One of my closest friends is getting married tomorrow another one in May another one in November. and an ex-classmate is also getting married in April/May. and, I dreamed about getting married last night. I remember some months ago I was so enthusiastic with the idea of getting married. Although I knew that our relationship was not yet ready for that stage, I was so pushy to Stefy. I had asked him when exactly we would get married. Ah well, it was all the flashy things that I longed for. Right now, what I want is to avoid it! I am just not brave enough to throw myself into this new status. Don't get me wrong, I am probably just like any other girls out there who like the beautiful wedding gown, like to be made up, like to be the queen of the night. But, have you ever considered what would happen after you wave off the guests and head to your own home, starting your new chapter of life? or what would happen after the happy chappy honeymoon? Would we then live

WSAD? (What Should Ariel Do?)

As a communication expert, we always need to be prepared for crisis communication or disaster management. If a company suffered a bad publication, or when bad things happened, like with BP’s oil spill or Toyota’s cars, the communication people need to work very hard to communicate the right message (while some other people work on to make things right) and to win the public favour again. In theory, companies need to be prepared for crisis way in advance; however not many companies did that. I believe, Ariel had also never thought that such drama would happen, but yeah, here it is, and he has to face it! So, here is my humble opinion regarding what he needs to do to clear the air: Scenario 1: Launch a single/album Celebrities, especially musicians, usually would create a drama or scandal to increase their popularity in order to promote the next movie, single, or album that would be launched. What Ariel could do is to write a song (or an album) as soon as possible and launch it! And thee
