make ur TUESDAY so TASTE-day

yap, kali saya mau cerita tentang hari selasa yang saya alami. hmm.. kalo diitung-itung selama 20th saya udah mengalami sekitar 960 hari selasa (20thX12bln=240bln, 240blnX4minggu=960minggu, dalam 1 minggu ada 1 hari selasa, jadi 960 hari selasa). dan yah yang hari selasa tanggal 8 Februari 2011 ini beda banget..

awalnya saya udah rencana mau ikut Family Day BEMJ Fisika angkatan 2008 di Kota Tua, tapi sya masih ragu juga sih karna saya uda terlanjur janji mau bayar Telkom Speedy dan Air di kantor POS. selain itu, sya tiba2 ada rncana mau ke Dufan sama temen2 (dapet info Dufan diskon kalo beli coc*c*la), nah berdasrkan perhitungan dana sya bisa lebih nabung kalo sya gak ikut FD ini... maklum, sya termaksud orang yg doyan jajan, kemanapun sya pergi pasti ada yang dijajanin..hehehee..

dan ye tiba2 sya sakit perut, aneh sakitnya, jadi sya SMS temen saya dwl, kalo saya gak jadi ikut.. lalu ada SMS dari seseorng yg nomornya tidak trcntum di kontak HP sya, nomor opertor 3, sebuah Tausiyah. isinya:
"sahabat yang baik adalah orang yang dapat berkata benar kepada anda, bukan orang yang membenarkan kata-kata anda. Jaga sahabatmu dalam doa dan kejujuran. :D Make ur tuesday so taste-day "

saya langsung berfikir mengenai kata kata diatas. satu, sahabat. apakah benar hari ini saya gak jadi ikut FD, saya gak ikut ngumpul2, jalan2 terkahir sama anak BEMJ 2008. dua, mengenai katakata make ur tuesdat so taste-day. saya bener2 ragu sama hal ini. saya uda berasa ini bakal jadi selasa yg biasa2 aja. saya bakal ke kantor pos, lalu gosok baju, nyapu, ngepel, online, dll... lalu saya biarkan saja itu sms

tiba2 temen saya sms ngasih ngajar buat kelas 3 SD. well, anak SD. klo uda pada baca pos sebelumnya, sya punya pengalaman buruk ngajar SD. tapi daripada saya bengong yah saya terima, dan sya bener2 nyiapin daari mulai games dan soal2 supaya mereka gak bosen. lalu sekitar jam 9 sya mau mandi dan ke kantor pos buat bayar speedy, eh ternyata di kamar mandi adek saya lgi mandi (akhir2 ini adek sya kalo mandi suk angabisn aer, dan nyebelinnya dia suka males buat ngisi aer lagi), saya bilang aja jangn lupa diisi airnya. dan yah skitar 10 mnt stlah dia kluar dari kamar mandi, saya uda siap2 dengan anduk, eh ternyata di agak nyalain aer, jadi tuh bak isinya cuma 2 cm air.. gw bener2 langsung murka, marah banget. gw treak manggil dia, gw suruh isi tuh aer ampe penuh. eh dia malah lenje2 males2 di kamarnya. malah nyuruh gw ngisi aer sendiri. sumpah gw pengen nymperin dia trus gw gampol pake talenan.. kesel bnget. tapi brhubng gw inget sesuatu usaha yang keras, dan tiba2 (tdk konstan) mrpakan salah satu pemicu srangan jantung. gw gak jadi marah dan gw nyalain aer dan brbaring di kamar nykap untk mnnangkan hati.. ya, kalo itu cuma nyakitin elu doang ngapain elo melakukan perbuatan itu, biar aja ntar juga ada yg bales..

dari sini gw malah akan brfikir klo ini selasa akan benar2 menyebalkan. gw pengen nagis aja.. dan akhirnya gw pegi ke kntor pos dan bayar semua2nya. pulang dari kntr pos saya mampir ke alfam*rt, jajan sekailan nanya tntng promo yg beli coc*col* dapet tiket dufan. dan trnyata, bukan gratis tiket Dufan, tapi grtis tiket masuk ancol doang..waaaakkkk.. kagak jadi deh gw ke Dufan, klo tau gw tadi gausah hemat2 dan ikut FD ke kota tua. wew..

dan gw lanjut ngajar anak SD di Pesakih.. dengan berbekal games2 dan soal2, ngajarnya lumayan sukses. anaknya gak mnta pulang(walaupun mnta jajan), dan yah mereka cukup aktif dalam tanya-jawab.. eh, pas pulang gw dikasih gaji..yeaaahhh gajiann.. awalnya gw kira, cuman dapet 6orb, taunya 110rb..ahaa.. gw seneng banget.. gw lngsng pulang dan naek getek,,ehhe.. gw pehatiin sumpah aer kalinya kayak limbah racun berbahaya dan sprti mmiliki kekuatan destruksi yg tinggi, sampe ada gelembung2 gt, udah kayak asam lambung aktif..ngerii..

saya pulang naek busway dari halte pesakih, saat saya nunggu, teman saya dwl sms, kalo PKM kelompok gw lolos, dan di danai DIKTI..aaawwwwww..... gak percaya, gw cuman bales sms dia "hah?".. dia bales sms dan myakinkan klo tim gw bener2 lolos. dan gw pun prcya slnjutnya saya cuma mikir 'nah lo, mau dibawa kemana ini slnjutnya'.. ga akhirnya nelpon erni dan acem, temen klmpok gw yg lain, dan kita sama2 treak2an di tlpon..yg bener, yg bener, yg bener..and yes, that's what makes my tuesday so tasty..

saya seneng banget, ga percaya, ga nyangka. kalo pada tau cerita di balik pembuatan proposalnya, aahhh pokoknya kita bener2 ga nyangka kalo bisa lolos dan di danai..ehmm ehmm.. saking senengnya, sepulang dari ngajar, saya mampir alf*mart, saya beli 3 es krim magnum. buat ibu, bapak, dan adek saya. yah, buat adek saya, saking snengny saya sampai melupakan kkeselan saya sama adek saya pagi tadi..weww..

doain saya ya, semoga PKM saya bener2 bisa sukses ses ses.. amin..

hmmm..hmm..daa.daaaa.daaa

currently listening to :

Sondre Lerche

one of my favorite:

"Two Way Monologues"

Mum
All the other options that you had in mind starve me
`Cause I'm optionless and turkey-free and blind

Pa
Won't you listen and I'll let you in on this
Blind me!
As you listen I'll reduce advice to dust
Oh no!
I shouldn't have to spell my name

Ma!
If it's worth the made up smiles, the quiet fights
Oh mother!
It is hard not to look in the mirror's eye
I have come to this while you have come along
So it's alright if you change your mind the other way around again
I shouldn't have to spell my name

So start the two way monologues that speak your mind
We're talking two way monologues with words that rhyme

We
can't reclaim the shirts we threw away last twirl
Uncurl the note-in-pocket, personal brochures that dust
Machine-washed, that's how paper rusts

Days you spend wanting some of Michael Landon's grace
strike back, now they shape your life as stony as his face
Oh no! I shouldn't have to spell his name

So start the two way monologues that speak your mind
Start the two way monologues with words that rhyme
Start the two way monologues that speak your mind
We're talking two way monologues

We were chasing rabbits on the hill
And that prairie-life was great, but never real
`Cause we never saw no rabbits out there, ever, no, not once
All we did was put a fire up and watch it burn for months
And I miss the sound of stairs and walls and maladjusted doors
and too little space for holding all the soldiers and the war


hmm..hmm.. He is so genius. his music is really awesome. and guess what, he'll come to Indonesia for JavaJazzFestival..aaa.... hehehehe

i'm actually confused about the meaning of this Two Way Monologue lyrics. i'm guessing that this lyrics about mind-conflict. is it right? tell me please..pleasee..

fun facts.

heeheee.. just found out many silly facts recently..

first, this Densha Otoko (Train Man) comic i bought for only Rp 5000,- at the bookfair


is actually has been made into a movie and a drama series.
wow. and guess what it's all based on true story.. wow.

this tells us a story about an otoko (someone who is a maniac of something. such as game, internet, anime) who fall in love at the first sight with a girl he saves on the train. as an otoko, he is so shy and has no confident. he just tells his story and love to his virtual friends on chatting. but then, all his friends support him and tell him not to give up and chase the girl. with all the help, the train man struggling so hard to win the girl's heart.

i love the comic, it's a very easy-understand story. and also the movie. it's a nice light romance movie. apparently, there's a different between the movie and the comic. but still, i like the funny expression of the chat virtual friends, and their daily life as an otoko. i actually don't expect the train man is too shy and nervous. he is so stutter when he talks to the girl.. yeah, it's a recommended movie for u to watch at your spare time.

then, i also spent my holiday by reading novels that i haven't touch since the day bought.. hahaha.. some of them is novels from Diana Wynne Jones. i have 2 novels that written by her : charmed life and howl's moving castle. i read Charmed Life first, but i felt bored with the story. so i think that Howl's Moving Castle was as boring as Charmed Life, and i didn't read it until last week. and guess what, Howl's Moving Castle is awesome. i love the romance-fantasy atmosphere, funny and unique characters. and i fall in love with Howl.. aaaaa... i first thought that Howl will be an old, grumpy wizard. but then, he is actually a handsome (haa, this is only in my imagination), romantic, mysterious, loving wizard. i like it when he took care of michael and calcifer, and his gentle treatment of grandma sophie. and also when he gets depress and act pampered as sophie mess his hair..aaa..
then, i imagine if this novel made into a film. well, it will be a very great twist movie..hahha.. and i curious of Howl's look..aaaaa..
and then, i read another neglected novel : The Unfortune Miss Fortunes. and it stated on that novel that yes, there IS a movie of Howl's Moving Castle..waaaa...

i immediately search and download it on the forum.. and i just finished watching it. well, as usual there are many differences between the novel and movies.

i enjoy the first 30 minutes, but after that i confused cause the story in the novel is turn around. in the novel, Howl's faced the witch from the wastes in a battle, but in the movie the witch is become powerless because of Suliman king. and i disappoint that there isn't any twist ending that i expect to much. but still, it made me falling even more in love with Howl.. hahaha..

hey, my holiday just a week left. unfortunately some of my friends will have to finish the holiday earlier.

ready to teach?

just read an interesting article 'Top Ten Tips For Student Teachers' here.hahaha.. well, my years in UNJ was passed by so quickly. in glance, just a semester to go to PPL (being a student teacher in school).. haaaaahhh. hope these tips work on you..

1. Be On Time

Punctuality is very important in the 'real world'. If you are late, you will definitely NOT start out on the right foot with your cooperating teacher. Even worse, if you arrive after a class has begun which you are supposed to be teaching, you are placing that teacher and yourself in an awkward situation.

2. Dress Appropriately

As a teacher, you are a professional and you are supposed to dress accordingly. There is nothing wrong with over dressing during your student teaching assignments. The clothes do help lend you an air of authority, especially if you look awfully young. Further, your dress lets the coordinating teacher know of your professionalism and dedication to your assignment.

3. Be Flexible

Remember that the coordinating teacher has pressures placed upon them just as you have your own pressures to deal with. If you normally teach only 3 classes and the coordinating teacher asks that you take on extra classes one day because he has an important meeting to attend, look at this as your chance to get even further experience while impressing your dedication to your coordinating teacher.

4. Follow the School Rules

This might seem obvious to some but it is important that you do not break school rules. For example, if it is against the rules to chew gum in class, then do not chew it yourself. If the campus is 'smoke-free', do not light up during your lunch period. This is definitely not professional and would be a mark against you when it comes time for your coordinating teacher and school to report on your abilities and actions.

5. Plan Ahead

If you know you will need copies for a lesson, do not wait until the morning of the lesson to get them completed. Many schools have procedures that MUST be followed for copying to occur. If you fail to follow these procedures you will be stuck without copies and will probably look unprofessional at the same time.

6. Befriend the Office Staff

This is especially important if you believe that you will be staying in the area and possibly trying for a job at the school where you are teaching. These people's opinions of you will have an impact on whether or not you are hired. They can also make your time during student teaching much easier to handle. Don't underestimate their worth.

7. Maintain Confidentiality

Remember that if you are taking notes about students or classroom experiences to turn in for grades, you should either not use their names or change them to protect their identities. You never know who you are teaching or what their relationship might be to your instructors and coordinators.

8. Don't Gossip

It might be tempting to hang out in the teacher lounge and indulge in gossip about fellow teachers. However, as a student teacher this would be a very risky choice. You might say something you could regret later. You might find out information that is untrue and clouds your judgement. You might even offend someone without realizing it. Remember, these are teachers you could be working with again some day in the future.

9. Be Professional With Fellow Teachers

Do not interrupt other teachers' classes without an absolutely good reason. When you are speaking with your coordinating teacher or other teachers on campus, treat them with respect. You can learn a lot from these teachers, and they will be much more likely to share with you if they feel that you are genuinely interested in them and their experiences.

10. Don't Wait to the Last Minute to Call in Sick

You will probably get sick at some point during your student teaching and will need stay home for the day. You must remember that the regular teacher will have to take over the class during your absence. If you wait until the last minute to call in, this could leave them in an awkward bind making them look bad to the students. Call as soon as you believe you will not be able to make it to class.
