National Examination: Over!

Oke, Blog, gua seneng banget Ujian Nasional (UN) akhirnya kelar...ya Allah surga bener ya, bayangin aja gue udah hampir 2 minggu nggak ngelaptop, anjrit bisa dibayangin nggak tuh hahaha. Terus hari-hari gue diisi dengan apa? Ya belajar dong, ampe kenyang gua ama aneka macam rumus, aneka macam vocab, aneka macam kata, blahblahblah.

Day 1: Bahasa Indonesia
Pas di rumah gue ok-ok aja, pas nyampe sekolah juga awalnya ok, tapi begitu ketemu temen-temen...jderrrrrrrr, langsung berasa nelen es batu gua, tegang Coooy. Terus kan pagi-pagi shalat dhuha (gue lagi ga shalat tapi), baca Al - Ma'tsurat, berdo'a, terus dikasih roti pisang sama guru-guru. Gue masuk ke ruangan gua, dibagiin lembar jawaban, dan gue isi kan. Dan gobloknya yang harusnya gue ngisi tanggal lahir hampir aja gue ngisi tanggal hari itu...hufff untung Tuhan nyadarin gua. Terus gue kerjain deh tuh soal bahasa Indonesia...rada-rada sih, tapi ya alhamdulillah lah.

Day 2: Bahasa Inggris
Semalem sebelum ujian gue ngerjain aneka modul, aneka soal, aneka soal-soal latihan, de el-el. Gue expect banget dah sama pelajaran yang satu ini, dan pada hari H, ya alhamdulillah gue juga ga ada masalah lah, cuma kan gue ngejawab ada yang ragu-ragu gitu, gue mikir lamaaaaa banget, ampe akhirnya jawabannya gue ganti...abis bel. Rempong? Banget. Tapi ternyata jawaban awal gue salah, dan gue ganti jadi bener! Seneng banget guaaaa...terus gue ga langsung pulang, tapi ikut pesantren UN dulu. Pesantren UN tuh semacam program sekolah gua buat anak-anak yang rada-rada di pelajaran tertentu--kebetulan gue rada-rada di matematika. Makmur ternyata ikut pesantren UN, gimana enggak, sekolah ga ada bosen-bosennya ngasih makanan :9. Gue belajar sama Bu Mirna. Kelasnya gimana? RIBUT ABIS, tapi kocak gila hahaha. Tapi gue berdua-duaan terus sama Hanny, soalnya dia cewek sendiri di kelas sama gua ahahaha.

Day 3: Matematika
Jengjengjeng...ini yang paling menegangkan. Anak-anak lain? Biasa aja tuh. Gue? Panik to the max. Masalahnya selama try out tuh nilai matematika gue ngepas mulu: 5 - 6 - 7. Ya Allah dahsyat bener kan? Jadinya gue sempet gila sendiri ngerjainnya. Dan soalnya...subhanallah, susye! Kan biasanya kalo TO seenggaknya 15 menit sebelum bel gue udah selesai meriksa lah, lha ini? 5 menit sebelum bel aja masih ada soal yang belum gue kerjain...akhirnya gue nemu rumusnya, gue kerjain. Dan entah kenapa selama gue ngerjain tuh gue--dalam hati--ngomong ke gue sendiri. Misalnya? Kalo rumus ga ketemu terus akhirnya gue nemu, dalam hati gue bilang, "Bego lu Ta!". Atau nggak gue perintah-perintah diri gue sendiri gitu...ya sarap sih tapi ya gimanaaaa...aduh deh ya dan lo harus tau, Gitta Azalia, anak terpintar di seantero JP, banting tas saking keselnya sama soal. Gitta banting tas? Enta banting Menteri Pendidikan deh.

Day 4: IPA
Hari terakhir Coy, asyik kan? Gue udah nyantri sehari sebelumnya. Alhamdulillah gue enak deh ngerjainnya, ga menemui kesulitan berarti lah. Ngitung lancar, ngerjain persilangan yang biasanya gue ngasal juga tadi bisa, asik lah. Oh ya, hari ini Angga, Faya, Yuqdha ultah lo, terus gue sama yang lain diajak Angga makan di Pizza Hut Kalimalang...happy birthday semua, wish you all the best ya. :D

Ok, enough for today. Adios!

Born in the USA

Bruce Springsteen
Born in the USA

Born down in a dead man's town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
End up like a dog that's been beat too much
'Til you spend half your life just covering up now

Born in the USA...I was born in the USA
I was born in the USA...born in the USA...now

Got in a little hometown jam
So they put a rifle in my hand
Sent me off to a foreign land
To go and kill the yellow men

Born in the USA...I was born in the USA
Born in the USA...I was born in the USA

Comeback home to the refinery
Hiring man said, "Son, if it was up to me."
Went down to see my VA man
He said, "Son, don't you understand?"

I had a brother at Khe Sahn
Fighting off the Vietcong
They're still here...he's all gone

He had a woman he loved in Saigon
I had a picture of him in her arms now

Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
I'm 10 years burning down the road
Nowhere to run ain't got nowhere to go

Born in the USA...I was born in the USA...now
Born in the USA...I'm a long gone daddy in the USA now
Born in the USA...born in the USA
Born in the USA...I'm a cool rockin' daddy in the USA now

All I Know

Five for Fighting
Ost. Chicken Little

I bruise you...you bruise me
We both bruise so easily
Too easily...to let it show
I love you...and that's all I know

And all my plans keep falling through
All my plans...they depend on you
Depend on you to help them grow
I love you...and that's all I know

When the singer's gone...let the song go on
It's a fine line between the darkness and the dawn
They say in the darkest night...there's a light beyond

And the endings always come at last
Endings always come too fast
They come too fast and they pass too slow
I love you and that's all...

It's really all I know
It's all I know
It's all I know

Hmm ya...gue mau cerita aja, Henin kalah kemaren di final Australian Open lawan Serena, kalahnya 4 - 6, 6 - 3, 2 - 6. Dan lo harus tau gue nangis setengah jam nonstop...ya gue tau sih untuk ukuran pemain comeback kayak gitu udah hebat banget, ya tapi gimana mau seneng sih kalo pemain favorit kalah sama pemain yang dibenci? Udah gitu wasit garisnya brgsk banget lagi...ya gitu lah gue ga mau cerita nanti gue naik darah. Ampe gue bangun pagi masih gelisah gara-gara itu...koran aja gue remes-remes kok tadi.

Ya udah...untuk Henin, good luck in the next tournament. Allez!

Adios!

Superman (It's Not Easy)

Five for Fighting
America Town

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird...I'm more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside the train
And it's not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I'll never see

It may sound absurd...but don't be naive
Even heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed...but won't you concede
Even heroes have the right to dream

And it's not easy to be me

Up...up...ahead...away...away from me
Well...it's alright
You can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazy or anything

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Diggin' from Kryptonite on this one-way street
I'm only a man in a funny red sheet
Lookin' for special things inside of me

Inside of me...inside of me
Yeah...inside of me...
Inside of me

I'm only a man in a funny red sheet
Only a man lookin' for a dream
I'm only a man in a funny red sheet
And it's not easy...

It's not easy to be me
