Si 'Ganti Hati"

Yahh batal.......... *kecewa sangat

Kaki ini sudah terlanjur melangkah ke lantai 4 Gedung Graha Pena, tempat janjian kami via sms. Ditemani wepe, lewatin traffic jam yang benar-benar menguras tenaga rasanya sia-sia. Tahu sendiri, jam makan siang di jalur-jalur jalan protokol Surabaya sangat-sangat menggila. Bikin stress dan emosi naik turun.
Tapi mau gimana lagi, orang yang saya temui memang punya “hak” untuk melakukan penundaan yang tidak sesuai harapan saya. Padahal saya sudah dikejar deadline dan tidak tidur mulai jam 23.00 – sampai 11.siang lebih ini....membuat mata saya rasanya juga susah diajak kompromi. Hanya mandi keramas yang buat badan saya sedikit segar dan mata tak terpejam, dan punya kekuatan untuk menemui 'nya'.

Pak Dahlan..nama yang biasa saja bagi saya. Tapi penegasan nama belakangnya Iskan, membuat banyak orang pasti langsung ngeh, atas sosok pimpinan perusahaan media Cetak yang terbesar di Jatim dan mulai merajai tanah air. Dua kata digabung menjadi DAHLAN ISKAN, seseorang yang juga pernah mempertaruhkan nyawanya untuk ganti hati. ya, ganti hati dalam arti sebenarnya. Ohya saya baru tahu ada blog beliau disini. Lengkap ceritanya soal ganti hati, seperti di versi vetak JawaPos yang berantai itu.

Nah, sebagai produser yang baik dan benar * wekk saya sangat paham kesibukan beliau sebagai pimpinan, yang pasti jamnya tidak se-nganggur saya. Dan saya semakin paham ketidaktepatan janji beliau, karena alasan mengantarkan 'nyonya' ke rumah sakit. Apalah daya dan kuasa saya untuk menolaknya, jelas tidak. Akhirnya pertemuan diundur petang pukul 18.00, dan beliau malah 'berjanji' akan meluangkan waktu SATU JAM BERSAMA SAYA. Halah, kaya talkshow ajah..
Petang, 18.15 menit (kembali karena alasan macet jam pulang kantor) terlambat sedikit, aya kembali memencet tombol lift langsung ke lantai 4. Begitu pintu lift terbuka, ternyata pak Dahlan sudah menunggu saya di kursi lobby, ngobrol bersama tamunya, yang akhirnya memutuskan untuk beranjak karena melihat kedatangan saya.
Pak Dahlan, meskipun seringnya hanya ngobrol by phone, tapi rasanya pertemuan itu sudah sangat sering terjadi karena rasa akrab itu muncul pada raut mukanya. Nampak tetap semangat, meskipun mengaku baru bisa istirahat waktu menemui saya, dan masih diunggu jadwal pertemuan dengan tamu lainnya..yang ternyata seorang calon Gubernur Jatim, yang ternyata harus menunggu jadwal pertemuan saya dengan pak Dahlan beres dulu. Hehe, antri ya pak calon gubernur... Rasanya pertemuan itu sungguh berkesan bagi saya. Jujur, ‘materi’ yang beliau sampaikan dalam rekaman saya, sangat-sangat memberi pencerahan. Next time saya bakal posting 'petuah-petuah'nya itu. Terimakasih pak Dahlan..

Biography

Britney Jean Spears was born on December 2, 1981, in Kentwood, Louisiana. She always knew she wanted to pursue a musical career, so she took her talents to her local church, where she sang with the choir. She even sang on national television as a Star Search contestant.

At the age of 8, Britney auditioned for the popular children's variety show The New Mickey Mouse Club, but she was refused because of her young age. Luckily for Britney Spears, one of the show's producers saw the young singer's talent and helped her find an agent in New York City.

Britney Spears spent the next three summers in New York, where she studied at the famous Off Broadway Dance Center and at the Professional Performing Arts School. She also appeared in commercials and off-Broadway shows, one of which showcased Britney as an innocent 10-year-old with a "bad girl" edge.

Britney spears as a mouseketeer

At the age of 11, three years after her first Mickey Mouse Club rejection, Britney Spears finally landed a spot as a "Mouseketeer." Joining a cast of talented teens, Britney showed off her acting, dancing and singing talents on the show that also spawned the careers of fellow celebrities Keri Russell, Christina Aguilera and Justin Timberlake.

After two years of living in Orlando while doing the show, Britney Spears moved back home to Kentwood and returned to high school. Her one year as a 14-year-old high-school student would be the last bit of normalcy in her life. With dreams of pursuing a career as a singer and a desire to leave her small hometown, Britney set off to New York City. Britney then signed with Jive Records after impressing an executive with her demo tape.

Britney releases hit me baby one more time

Her debut album ...Baby One More Time (1999) held the No. 1 spot on the Billboard charts, was certified RIAA 14 times platinum (it has gone on to sell more than 20 million copies) and won Britney awards such as the 1999 MTV Europe Awards for Best Female Artist, Best Pop Artist and Best Breakthrough Artist.

With the hype nowhere near being over, she returned to the music scene in 2000 with her follow-up album, entitled Oops!... I Did It Again. With a hit video accompanying the hit title track (in which Spears definitely did it again, this time in a red latex cat suit), a second worldwide tour in support of her album and millions of fans, Britney Spears accomplished what few artists ever accomplish -- and she was only 18 years old.
2001 was a banner year for the pop star, as she cohosted the American Music Awards with LL Cool J, sang with Aerosmith, 'N Sync, Nelly, and Mary J. Blige at the Super Bowl, appeared on a spoken-word CD of the Pope's prayers (irony?), and signed a multimillion-dollar endorsement deal with Pepsi. Her third, self-titled album was released, which spawned hits like "Overprotected," "I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman" and "Slave 4 U."

A year later she starred in the less-than-talked-about movie Crossroads. That same year, she also appeared as host and performer on Saturday Night Live and had a cameo in Austin Powers in Goldmember.

Britney spears and justin timberlake

After her public breakup with Justin Timberlake in 2002 the once-chaste Spears began showing up in tabloids and entertainment news shows due to her heavy partying and rebellious lifestyle.

She even appeared at a movie premiere with bad boy Colin Farrell, and her many tattoos and the confirmation that she did indeed have sex with Justin only added fuel to the fire. Throw in a nearly naked performance at the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards, a performance with caged animals and a snake at the following year's VMAs and a very erotic video for "Slave 4 U," and Britney's good-girl image was down the drain.

Britney spears releases in the zone

A few months before the release of her fourth album, In The Zone, Britney Spears shocked audiences yet again at the VMAs, this time during a remixed rendition of Madonna's "Like A Virgin." Along with Christina Aguilera, Britney kissed Madonna in one of the most memorable -- and scandalous -- moments of the year. In The Zone was released in November 2003, and debuted at No. 1 with more than 609,000 copies sold in its first week of release. That same month, Britney received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Britney spears marries kevin federline

Britney married her former backup dancer, Kevin Federline, on September 18, 2004, and after months of weight-gain rumors, Britney announced that she was pregnant with a baby boy, to whom she gave birth in 2005. The young husband and wife would go on to have another child, a baby boy named Jayden, in 2006, but the couple ended up in court when Britney Spears filed for divorce on November 7, 2006.

Soon after her breakup with Federline, Spears began hitting the dance-club circuit with Paris Hilton, and her privates were photographed with no underwear by a number of paparazzi.

On February 16, 2007, after months of wild partying, Britney Spears entered a drug rehab facility, but she left the very next day. That night, Britney entered a closed hair salon, and to everyone’s dismay, she shaved her head completely bald. After leaving the salon, Spears visited a tattoo parlor and got several new tattoos.

In October of the same year, Spears lost custody of her two boys to Kevin Federline.

Britney spears on how i met your mother
In early 2008, police were called to the home of Britney Spears. She was hospitalized briefly, and after that, she started taking strides to clean up her act. She stayed out of the spotlight as much as possible and took on projects that would help improve her image, like making guest appearances on the hit TV sitcom How I Met Your Mother. Surprisingly, viewers were quite impressed with her acting skills.

Lost in what...

Apalah aku...,
Terjebak dalam bentangan waktu
Merudung dalam kekangan tak terbuang melepas rindu
Menenggelamkan bara dan lamunan-lamunan palsu


Apalah aku...,
Terjebak dalam ruang kosong keadaan
Menghentak dalam kesunyian dan pengharapan
Membayangkan senyap dan raungan-raungan kesunyian

Women in another planet (out of Indonesia..I Mean)

Mendengar ibu yang satu ini berceloteh medok aksen East Java-an, (atau Suruboyoan tepatnya) membuat pikiran alam liar Saya membayangkan sosok yang...;
Independent woman
 Cablak, blak-blak an dan supel
 Ramah dan nice welcome person dah..
 Ohya satu lagi, dalam bayangan saya..rambutnya model laki, manol dan tomboi. Preman habis ah..hehehe
Sosok itu bernama Emi, atau lebih senang dipanggil Mbokk Emi supaya lebih 'persaudaraan' katanya. Tinggal di Texas Amerika Serikat, dengan suami bule bernama Jeffri and
she called him hubby.. seperti kata Ibu Kartini, Hubby gelap terbilat terang (*gubrakkk). si Mbok malah asyik panggil kang Jupri (wakakakakakk) dan sudah menghasilkan 2 jagoan bernamakan Dimas dan Noah.

Wah, gambaran saya semakin salah besar, waktu tahu keahlian utamanya; M-E-M-A-S-A-K.
Bahkan dirumah online -nya, secara terperinci – urut dan detil semua dijelaskannya. Pokoknya para Chef hotel-hotel berbintang harus hati-hati atas kelihaiannya memanfaatkan kemampuan tangan dalam memasak dan kemampuan tangan mengetik keyboard QWERTY untuk upload info-info seputar 'uji coba' dapur terkini dan juga cerita soal keluarganya. So sweet ;) Bukan hanya pekerjaan yang girly aja. Tapi kerjaan bengkel pun juga sanggup ditangani, seperti membenarkan remote, betulin lampu, sampai vacuum cleaner-pun semua beres oleh tangan cekatannya. Kata mbokk EMI, ditengah keterbatasan dan kepepet (karena gak bisa terus-terusan nunggu suami) semua bisa dihadapi. Weissss....dahsyattt

Ibu Emi menurut kacamata saya, sosok perempuan era Millenium ini. Benar-benar mampu berjuang di negeri orang, dan memberikan banyak cinta kasih untuk keluarganya. Mengalahkan besarnya rasa rindu kampung halamannya di Surabaya, demi mengemban tugas menjadi seorang sosok Istri yang mengikuti kemanapun langkah suami, dan sosok Ibu yang bersahaja bagi kedua putranya. Setiap hari mengaku selalu on-line di radio saya, demi mendengarkan kabar dan sedikit menghapus rasa rindu aroma 'Suroboyoan'. Dan Mbokk EMI tetap selalu rendah diri dan humble, menutup pembicaraan di telpon dengan ucapan “Minta maaf kalau ada salah dan kekurangan”, satu hal yang tidak terlintas dalam benak saya....

Posting-an ini didedikasikan buat bu EMI, yang sedang ulang tahun 19 Juni lalu. Congrats..
salam kekeluargaan..dari Surabaya – Indonesia ..untuk semua yang di Texas America

Love Inside

Love bring us the joy with it's own destiny

Memanfaatkan waktu yang singkat-sempit-pendek, penting bagi kami untuk menjaga harmoni dan sinergi (halah) as a passion for love. Pertemuan yang kadang singkat karena terbentur tema pekerjaan, menjadi hal yang butuh pemahaman dan kewajaran tinggi bagi kami berdua. Jujur, konsentrasi tema CARI DUIT masih menjadi bahasan utama kami sehari-hari, coz we never know what tomorrow is..Karena masih sama-sama muda, kami benar-benar ingin semuanya kami jalani dengan sepenuh kemampuan dan tenaga kami.

Di usia perkawinan kami 2 tahun yang masih seumur jagung ini, saya benar-benar ingin dan berharap bahwa kenangan dan perjuangan yang kami lakukan akan berakhir sesuai mimpi dan kemauan kami. Syukur-syukur melebihi ekspektasi itu ..Ngeri juga lihat infotainment atau acara gosip-gosip yang banyak menceritakan perpisahan melulu. Sampai tadi juga berhayal, bagaimana masa tua nanti. Dan kami sepakat tidak mau repotin Deeva, cukup berdua saja menghabiskan masa tua..hehe (halah)

Kalau saya kurang bersyukur, pasti karena rasa 'manusia' saya terlalu mendominasi. Tidak terlalu sering melongok ke bawah. Sebentar melihat banyak hal lain yang ternyata lebih kurang dan jauh diatas 'rasa kurang kita'. Hari ini saya masih terus belajar dan belajar banyak, bahwa hal-hal sederhana bisa menumbuhkan rasa cinta. Meski tanpa dibalut arti kemewahan, ternyata memasak berdua membuat kami juga belajar menjadi 'tim' yang dituntut untuk membingkai kebersamaan. Simple sih, tapi kesederhanaan itu yang nantinya membuat suatu hal akan terasa istimewa. Seperti kata Mama saya....

Hari inipun saya paham, ternyata kesetiaan itu penting untuk dicamkan. Tapi alangkah indahnya kalau unsur kesetiaan itu muncul, disaat pasangan kita dalam ketidakberdayaan. Lenyap sudah rasa egois yang kadang membakar nurani, dan keangkuhan yang membelenggu pikiran ini. Semuanya luluh, melihat kebahagiaan yang bisa dijalani dalam kesempurnaan kebersamaan.
Terimakasih Tuhan, atas segala-Mu
Pemberian, Ujian, Cobaan, dan Ampunan Mu
Kemarin adalah sejarah..
Besok adalah masa depan dan mimpi
dan sekarang adalah perjuangan

Selamat makan..

*Melahap bebek goreng + sayur lalapan + sambal pedas top bini Saya
Ditutup desert melon dan pepaya segar...alhamdullilah
