Korban Gagal Move On

Sudah lebih dari 1 bulan semenjak saya mengunggah tulisan saya lagi di Facebook dan blog, atas dukungan Ega. Dan sudah lebih dari 1 bulan juga saya absen nulis. Well, janji tinggallah janji.

Tapi lebih baik terlambat daripada tidak sama sekali, right? Daripada kita off topic, mendingan saya ceritakan alasan saya tiba-tiba menghilang dr dunia socmed. Well, bukan menghilang, tp lay low. Tp ada temen yang sampek nyangka saya deactivate account gara-gara jarang eksis.

Sejak sebelum lebaran, saya diminta boss untuk bantuin mengecek budget marketing untuk tahun depan. Well, how hard can it be? Boss bilang saya disuruh ngecek semua angka match up dan itung2annya bener. Ok sip!

Ternyata job description 'membantu' itu sangat ambigu, sodara-sodara. Yang ada, saya ikut mengerjakan budget itu dan semua teori akuntansi yang pernah saya pelajari dalam hidup, harus dikeluarkan.

Sayangnya, saya hampir tidak pernah belajar akuntansi. Waktu SMA, saya selalu bolos atau bahasa kerennya dulu 'escape' pas kelas akuntansi! Entah alasan sakit, latihan paduan suara, meeting OSIS, atau apapun! Kalau ulangan, well saya hanya mengandalkan teman sebangku :p yes, guilty!

Waktu kuliah, saya sudah yakin benar bahwa di jurusan pilihan saya tidak ada pelajaran akuntansi. Yeah right, memang ngga ada akuntansi, tapi ada Business Economics, yang sama aja isinya. Tapi pas kuliah ada teman yang sangat baik yang ngebantuin saya ngerjain tugas Business Economics menganalisa 3 annual reports. I passed dengan nilai pas-pasan.

Lega. Dan saya berjanji tidak akan bertemu akuntansi lagi. Sampai bulan lalu. Seperti mantan yang gagal move on, akuntansi ini muncul lagi dalam hidupku. Sudah 1 bulan ini saya tidak tidur nyenyak, makan juga tak enak, dan kadang bisa stress. Gejalanya kayak orang jatuh cinta, but trust me, I am not falling in love with Accounting just yet.

So, what did I learn from this lesson?
1. Bila diminta untuk membantu, minta penjelasan detail apa job des Anda sebagai seorang 'pembantu'.
2. Buat yg masih kuliah/sekolah, bolos itu sangat tidak terpuji, apalagi kalo bolosnya ngga cuma sekali. Make sure kalo bolos jangan bareng-bareng 10 temen sekelas yang duduknya berdekatan (this will be discussed in another story)
3. Mencontek dan menyuruh orang lain mengerjakan tugas itu juga tidak terpuji, apalagi memanfaatkan cowok yg lagi PDKT untuk membantu mengerjakan tugas. Yeah I know, guilty!

The morale of this story adalah masalah sulit janganlah dihindari, tapi dihadapi. Jangan move on dari masalah sulit. Move on-nya dari mantan aja yah!

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
