reach my dream step by step

i was sitting all alone in my room
thinking about how to love communication science
thinking about what should i do in my future
thinking about this blog.

i do love this blog
i love what i've wrote even if my writing is stupid and my english is bad
for sure,
i love the way i named it melukis pelangi
there was no philosophy why i named it melukis pelangi,
perhaps, it just because i really really love red, orange, yellow, green, blue, nila, and violet
it just because I DO love RAINBOW
btw,
i have a blocknotes, with this blog's header as the cover
i always write all the things i wanna write there


anyway,
i really enjoy creating a BLOCK NOTES
after i created a blocknotes for my self and somefriends for free,
there was another friends, asked me to created the same.
and now, i'm absolutely fall in love with this job
creating a blocknotes.
my blocknotes.

little thing that i miss

i miss my n70
it was a reward from my mother because i was listed as a science student in my Senior High School

my N70

where i saved and showed to everybody my -so-last-year-ugly photo design
where i photoraphed my self, in the day I and Namec having our first date
where there's a lot of "Happy Sweet Seventeen" greating message from all of my friends

where i photographed all of my Senior High School story
and finally followed me to Jogjakarta

i miss you dear. Where are you now? :(

Pray For Indonesia

Jogjakarta menangis.
Aku juga.
Yang kuat ya teman-teman!

dear Benji...

i made you a book

a book where you can share everything


i know you are a good writer..
so i hope you want to write everything there..
i know you are a good painter
so i hope you want to draw something there, too..
i know it's ugly
but believe me i made it with a lot of love by my self, all in one power


happy birthday Satria Dewi Anjaswari!
God bless you you youuuu!


(kok aku (sok) romantis banget yah nulisnya. Kantong plastiiik dooong :p)

ternyata, bergantung pada jenis musik yang dimainkan, musisi punya cara berdiri masing-masing.


aku suka bagian ini.

Saat mas Rere (komunikasi 2008) dan mbak Ocha (komunikasi 2008) melebur menjadi satu dalam permainan keyboard disalah satu lagu.

Rasanya bagaimana begitu melihatnya.
Romantis.. Iya.
Seru.. Iya.
Asik.. Iya.
well yang terakhir.. Aku sirik.. Iya.

Wah wah lihaaat apa yang aku temukan.
Si empunya amazing brain ternyata bermain musik juga.. :D

letter to you #3

"Sudah!
Cukup, Tuhan..
Seperti longan apabila kau sejajaran dengan labu Cinderella.
Aku terlalu lemah dibanding kuasamu meski kau anggap aku mampu"

Sent!

"Tuhan..
Apa kau sendirian dirumah seperti aku disana?
Apa kau harus menelepon dan mengirim pesan pada semua teman untuk meminjam laptop agar dapat mengerjakan tugas?
Apa kau dituduh perebut pacar orang?
Apa kau merusak jam tangan dan laptop pemberian ibu?
Apa kau merusak modem pemberian ayah?
Apa kau butuh kulkas dan pagar rumah?
Apa kau butuh AC?
Ngomong-ngomong Tuhan, lelakiku yang direbut dan bukannya aku merebut"

sent!

lama aku memandang layar handphone.
Tak juga berbunyi, tak juga berdering.
Tuhan tidak membalas dua pesanku.
Dia hanya diam.
Walau aku yakin Dia tersenyum. Bersiap mengangkatku.
Entah untuk dinaikkan lebih tinggi..
atau malah kembali dijatuhkan.
Lebih jauh lagi.
Entah.

A new "home" for ANO

Waaaaaw.
Ano looks so handsome with his new home.
Unfortunatelly God doesn't let he lives happilly ever after with other fish in his beautifull home. :( Poor Ano.


But don't worry Ano, i'll be with you forever <3

happy lebaran!

Wohoooo.
Baju baru alhamdulillah
tuk dipakai dihari raya
Tak barupun tak apa-apa
Masih ada baju yang lama

(Yang penting hatinya yang baru!) :D
Happy Lebaraaaan, all!

55+ (finally)

halo!

everybody know, how stress i am before (finally)..
55+
a photo exhibition by UFO’s 17th generation
(but no one know, how proud i am being one of them)


held on 27th August-1st September 2010
at cafebale Jogjakarta
opened by a very famous painter; Ki Joko Pekik
visited by at least 400 lucky people (including my father :D)

i don't ever think,
there's an amazing, beautifull, antique, and unforgetable art gallery like CAFEBALE before.
Although it spent too much time for the curator to think about the display, but hey..
looook how cozy this place..


Oke, lets check this out
this is one of my photo(s), titled "Ditinggal Untuk Merdeka"

I photographed Kiki Mella Clara's super grandmom -Ms. Marijam- (read:Maryam)
with her husband -Mr. Barnas- photo in her hand.
Mr. Barnas was an Indonesia freedom fighter, died because stroke a few years ago.
hmm to be honest i felt disappointed because
Bang Didi (one of the curator) rejected my writing for this photo's caption. :(
But this is my page, i can write all of what i want here. So sorry Bang Didi hihi :p

"Ditinggal Untuk Merdeka"

Tangan tak dapat lagi digenggam
Pipi tak dapat lagi dikecup
Bahkan sehelai rambutpun tak dapat lagi dibelai
Kenangan memang tak pernah salah untuk selalu diingat
Tapi apa mau dikata kalau Tuhan yang bertahta
Simpan! Simpan kenangan itu..
Seperti suamimu selalu menyimpan merah di darahnya
dan putih ditulangnya.


-Astrini-



And the other photo was..

"Layang Kangen"

Sepine ing wengi iki. Atiku mung tansyah iling karo kowe. Angin parama ribut mung tansyah ngelengake. Aku ora bakal lali karo kowe. Aku kangen kowe. Isuk, awan, wengi, sore.
Aku kangen kowe! -Mi-

Sunyinya malam ini. Hatiku hanya teringat padamu. Angin parama ribut turut mengingatkan. Aku tak akan melupakanmu. aku merindukanmu. pagi, siang, malam, sore. Aku merindukanmu! -Mi-*

*Surat ini tak pernah tersampaikan. Beberapa tahun yang lalu, suaminya berpulang.

-Astrini-

Mbah Mi (the talent) is a food seller behind my father's office. She is a widow. Her husband died a few years ago. She tried to write down her everlasting longing to her husband (in heaven) by this letter. She said to me that the letter was a Java's song lyric by Didi Kempot.

I and 24 other photographers work hard to organize
and make our passion comes true; making a good photos exhibition.
and i feel so satisfied with all of our work hard. God bless us! :D
