Tuesday Questions: What My Biggest Dream is (Part I) | Our Life Journey

Dear Good Readers and semua Weirdos,

Maaf ya semua, mulai posting kali ini akan saya tambah salamnya.. Jadi bukan cuma untuk good readers semua tapi juga untuk para weirdos yang merasa as weird as me or even weirdest. #Smile

Rasanya sudah puluhan Selasa yang saya lewati tanpa menjawab ratusan pertanyaan yang datang ke meja saya. Pertanyaanya bermacam-macam, tapi jelas harus saya saring dan saya pilah-pilah mana yang harus saya jawab dan tidak.

Ada beberapa pertanyaan yang benar-benar menggelitik diri saya, menggelitik karena untuk bisa bikin saya menghabiskan beberapa paragraf untuk menjawabnya. Awalnya saya pikir, enggak ah.. Gak akan saya jawab di blog ini, cukup di buku pribadi saya aja.. Takut pada bosen dan gak suka membacanya, tapi saya pikir-pikir lagi sejujurnya saya lebih suka pertanyaan semacam itu. Pertanyaan yang benar-benar membuat saya berhenti sejenak untuk berfikir, mengingat, merefleksi diri dan sejenisnya untuk menjawab satu pertanyaan saja.

Jadi saya putuskan untuk kali ini saya hanya akan menjawab satu pertanyaan, biarin dulu pertanyaan-pertanyaan lain menumpuk kita kasih makan dulu karakteristik INFJ saya satu ini. Biar lega.. :D

Pertanyaannya adalah..

"WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST DREAM?"

Kurang dalam gimana coba pertanyaan ini, baiklah akan saya jawab.. Semoga jawaban saya bisa dipahami dan dimengerti. Oh iya, tulisan ini sepertinya akan benar-benar panjang.. Jadi buat yang gak suka baca panjang-panjang tetap boleh kok baca postingan ini, tapi hati-hati mata bisa tiba-tiba rabun.. :p

Kembali ke topik.. Jujur ini pertanyaan sulit buat saya tapi saya merasa tertantang untuk kembali mengingat mimpi-mimpi, impian-impian yang pernah saya punya dulu. Kalaupun boleh menambah satu huruf di belakang Dream akan saya rubah menjadi Dreams dan akan saya bagi dalam beberapa posting.. Haha.. Bisa jadi bahan buat memperbanyak tulisan.

Kalau dibilang IMPIAN sudah pasti dari kecil masing-masing kita punya impian, punya mimpi. Kalau saya boleh bilang mimpi adalah cita-cita.

-Sekali lagi maafin saya kalau penjelasan saya bakal panjang dan mungkin membosankan-

WHAT ARE YOUR DREAMS?

This is one of my dreams..

Saya mulai sadar  saya punya impian saat saya duduk di bangku SMP, saat itu seingat saya di sekolah baru mulai ada yang namanya guru BK, Bimbingan Konseling. Saya suka sekali mendengar penjelasan beliau tentang kepribadian, kebiasaan, kehidupan dan lain sebagainya. Dari situ saya kenal tentang psikologi dan psikolog tapi tentu hanya sebatas pengetahuan anak SMP. Enggak detail, enggak dalam.

Yang saya tahu rasanya menyenangkan bisa mendengar cerita orang-orang yang berbeda setiap harinya, tentang masalah mereka, tentang hal yang membahagiakan buat mereka, tentang kesedihan dan kekecewaan mereka, menjadi penyimpan rahasia mereka, juga mencoba merasakan apa yang dirasakan orang tersebut. Buat saya ini semacam belajar dari orang lain, tanpa harus benar-benar mengalami hal serupa. Jadi ketika kelak kita mengalami hal serupa kita punya banyak referensi jalan keluar dan akan lebih siap menghadapinya.

Saya memang pendengar yang baik, setidaknya itu yang dibilang orang-orang tentang saya. Pendengar yang diam tapi bisa menunjukkan empati yang dalam dari tatapan mata saya, ketika dibutuhkan saran saya akan dengan tulus memberikan saran, seolah-olah saya mengalaminya. Mungkin karena itu sejak dulu saya memang jadi langganan tempat curhat buat teman-teman dan sahabat. Banyak dari mereka yang mempercayakan rahasianya pada saya, sampai saya lupa rahasia apa saja itu. Beberapa masih ada yang tersimpan tapi beberapa hilang terbawa waktu. :D

Ada yang berminat menyimpan rahasianya ke saya? Guarantee.. Your secret's safe with me.. Hahaha.. Terkadang mereka-mereka ini yang jadi inspirasi nulis bagi saya. Entah berupa puisi, tulisan pendek, cerpen, quote, apa saja pokoknya tulisan. Saya memang cuma bisa nulis, gak bisa nulis lagu karena memang gak bisa main alat musik. Tapi cerita tentang bikin lagu saya ada pengalaman bikin lagu untuk pertama dan terakhir kalinya. Penasaran? Pasti nanti saya ceritakan.. :D

Kembali ke impian masa SMP saya. Mengingat menurut saya waktu itu dunia psikologi sangat menarik dan menyenangkan maka saya bercita-cita untuk menjadi psikolog atau apa saja lah yang ada hubungannya dengan psikologi. Tapi karena memang menurut Allah dunia psikologi profesional bukan takdir saya, maka disinilah saya sekarang. Masih meraba-raba tentang dunia psikologi secara teori dan ilmu.

Well, saya masih berharap suatu saat bisa belajar psikologi secara formal sehingga saya jadi bisa figure out yang selama ini hanya saya raba-raba dan saya kira-kira saja. Tapi kalau memang tak ada kesempatan untuk belajar formal setidaknya saya mulai belajar saat ini dari teman-teman di group INFJ dan sejenisnya. Saya banyak belajar dari mereka, terima kasih semua.

Saya rasa segitu dulu tulisan tentang impian saya masa SMP. Cuma segitu? Woooo tenang.. Ini baru part I masih ada part II dan part seterusnya.. Tunggu part selanjutnya ya, Good Readers & Weirdos..

Love,

Tuesday Questions: More Various Questions #Shocking

Morning all :D

Do you know why I really love Tuesday? Because there will be at least 10 questions come to me that I have to answer based on me and I find it very interesting doing so.. ^_^ Here are the questions and my answers:

What would you do if you had million dollars?

I would build a school, the best school with complete facilities. Anyone especially the poor can join here FREE. Of course I must be so selective in choosing the best students. Not the smart ones but ones who have passion and willingness to learn and study about anything. I would build an orphan house. I would build a craft supplies super market, that is one of my dream I want to make it real. I hope I can make one, the most complete on.

Are you a spender or a saver?

Sometimes I am a spender, sometimes a saver. It depends on my mood.. :P

How much money do you save on a regular basis? (As a peecentage of your income?)

I am not really sure, maybe it's about 15% - 20% Really, I am not sure..

Do you have a personal budget?

Sometimes yes and sometimes no.

When you are on a date, do you think the man should pay or not?

I don't think so, not always man who takes responsibility in paying the bill. In my experience with my hubby before he become my husband, anyone who have money was the one who pay. If I had money I paid, if he had money he paid. That flexible.

What's the most expensive gift you've ever given someone?

I have never given expensive gift. :P

What's the most expesive gift you've ever received from someone?

It is LOVE from my Hubby.. That is the most expensive gift I've ever received.

If someone offered you a million dollars for a night out, would you do it?

What kind of question is it?? Don't you know I am married?? So only my hubby can ask me for a night out..

Do you invest in the stock market? What kind of investing strategy do you use if you do?

I do not do that, so no strategy at all..

Hhhmmmm.. Various questions asked, but kinda interesting.. Shocking.. Tiring..

I think that's all for now, Fellas..

See ya soon,

Actually it's not because I threw them away.. I love saving all the old memory but I am kind of forgetful one and are not to good in putting things in the right place so I mostly lost all of them.. Poor me..

I never been in trouble, I think.. I am kinda shy person, who love to be in a small group of friends. That's me.. :D

When was the last time you had an amazing meal?

Weeks ago I have anchovy fried rice. I really love anchovy fried rice, it taste so delicious and smells like "petai". It is in front of the "internet cafe manager's" a.k.a my brother's new cafe named Jowo Online. Usually my husband refuses taking me to that place, the reason is that the service is so slow. It takes about a half hour to cook one fried rice. But that evening he said yes and I was so happy.

What's the best/worst gift you've ever given/received?

We in our family seldom give or receive gift because we do not have that as tradition. Well I got some gift from friends and for me all of them are good.

This one I remember, when I had to pay the bill but the money was not sufficient. So I borrowed money from Jowo Online's Manager.. :D He's so nice and so good.. Sometimes.. :P

What is something you learned in the last week?

I learned how to make clay and characlay, I joined a gathering of Indonesian Crafter Reg. Malang in Crea's Pavillion and made my first characlay. I am thinking of making specific label for CharaClay, I think so.. Ehm.. Wait.. I have ever made characlay, I remember.. When I worked in an English course for kids activity.. Yeah, I remember.. I made one, but forgot how it looked like.. What I remember is that characlay's broken.. ~,~"

What story does your family always tell about you?

At what age did you become an adult?

Believe it or not I got mature earlier than my age, I mean my thought was older than my age when I was teenager.. I had some e-pals, we talked to each other and they didn't believe that I was just 16, they thought I was 20 something.. ~,~"

Yeah, that's me answering those questions.. See ya next Tuesday, Friends..

Love,

Tuesday Questions: 5 Personal Questions and 5 Personal History Questions

Hi everyone, how's life?

Here come another Tuesday for answering questions. As you can read from the title this time I am going to answer 5 personal questions and another 5 is personal history questions.

Here they are:

Which celebrity do you get mistaken for?

None

What do you want to be when you grow up?

Wrong question I think, it should be ..when you grow old? Haha..  I want to be one of super cool MOM and GRANDMA

When you have 30 minutes of free-time, how do you pass the time?

What would you name the autobiography of your life?

What songs are included on the soundtrack to your life?

I wanna grow old with you by Westlife.. Yeah yeah.. You might say always westlife.. But for sure I grew up with their songs..

Have you ever had something happen to you that you thought was bad but it turned out to be for the best?

Wow, such a deep question.. Hhmm.. Okay, it is my sensitivity.. At first I thought it would bring me no where and will be so bad for me and my life.. As you know sensitive person always stereotype as a negative one, easily get hurt, it could bring you to long term madness about all the people around you, and other stereotype but... Luckily in me it doesn't bring me to negative things, it doesn't mean I am always right and have no negative sides but.. This sensitivity brings me to emphaty which in my opinion it is good. You can directly feel how others might feel, you can really catch the responds others might do if you do this or that.. So it always forces me to think before I do which is good for me and people around me.. :D #WhatALongAnswer

What was one of the best parties you've ever been to?

It was a wedding party of my hubby's relative last two weeks.

What was the last movie, TV show or book that made you cry or tear up?

Wow, I really cannot remember.. If I remember I will directly answer this question so let me skip it.. :P

What's the harderst thing you've ever done?

Oh, it was when I had to eat raw yam when I was in college as the agenda of freshman in a nature lover organization.. That was the hardest thing ever, so disgusting.. The smell, the taste.. Felt like throwing up but had to ate all up.. That is hard thing to do, isn't it?

What was the last experience that made you a stronger person?

It was not so long ago, someone got a problem with me and saying things he/she shouldn't say and said that he/she was hurt by me.. It quite a contrary, he/she is the one who said the thing he/she shouldn't to me but he/she said I hurt him/her.. Let me make a long story short, the point is that she misunderstood me.. That make me learn a lot, which ones are friends and which ones are not.. Who are besides me when I am down and who left me.. I learn a lot.. And I know I am a stronger person right now..

Yes I am a stronger person now.. I have done answering these questions.. See you on next questions..

Love,
