sudut lengkung

one hundred years of solitude is the best book yet. isn't it amazing how people can just like read a book and get lost in it? well i don't know about other people, but i feel that its like opening a diary you find on the street and reading it,.. minus the guilt that is. kenapa ya? its like we really like to be dissolved in another world, apalagi yang beda drastis dari idup kita. kayak ga pernah happy gitu loh, kayak we're hoping that there is always something out there. its like living off somebody else. kayak eating away their fervour and life. maybe its gotta something to do with the collective memory- collective knowledge thing. its the basic instinct of human -- we're so dependent on each other it is funny how we always try to deny it and individualize ourselves meskipun dari lahir we always run to someone else to solve our problems. even sometimes people try to make themselves feel better by trying to be someone else and be dissolved in another dimension : eg baca buku!, ato malahan by looking at other people and feel more superior than them. its like a justification that its okay that we have problems cos more ppl have more problems. why are we doing this? i mean i guess its normal, but the fact that its normal does not always mean that its right, you know..
by the way, its always great that life is so unpredictable and banyak sudut lengkung nga, malahan sudut kruel kruel daripada fair and square, soalnya kalo udah tau mau belook 90 derajat ngapain idup coba, ambil aja penggaris ama jangka.... kalo lengkung kan susah gak tau mau belok kiri ato kanan dll

i've got a question :

In heaven, theres an intersection of 2 paths : path of heaven and path of hell. at the intersection, stand 2 people, one always tells the truth and the other always tell lies. you can only ask both of them one and only one question to find out which one is the way to heaven. What are you going to ask?

mmm it took me quite a while to solve this one. but tonight i wanna ask them something even though its not gonna get me where i wanna go. My question is probably gonna be : am i a good person??

even though gonna get me a yes and a no, at least one of the 2 is answering a yes, which makes me a good person by 50%... not bad, better than nothing. this, therefore makes me a very bored and jayus person...

selamat malam dunia

Hmm.. mel as sad as it may seem, and although we don't want to admit that, we always needs others' opinion on what we do and who we are. We often need their assurance to know whether we are doing the right thing, or whether we are a good or a bad person. Coba deh, think about it.. If you this thing that you urself think as a good think, but everybody arounds you see it the other way around. Wouldn't you start thinking that they are right. That you're the one who's wrong.. and that eventually you will change your perspective and might start doing the opposite of what you're originally doing?

Sometimes, we always know ourselves whether we are good or bad.... But that's not necessarily how we act...
