Jadi, baru-baru ini gua meluncurkan (ceile) channel Youtube baru yang ditujukan untuk membantu temen-temen yang kesulitan dalam mempersiapkan diri mengikuti ujian, khususnya di bagian soal matematika, penalaran, dan sejenisnya. Channel tersebut gua namai TheBoardMath So, far udah ada 4 video pembahasan yang meliputi soal-soal matematika yang muncul di TPA, SIMAK-UI, dan UTBK SBMPTN. Ke depan rencananya akan ditambah lagi dengan tipe-tipe soal ujian yang lainnya. Sekarang beberapa video pembahasannya udah gw cluster dalam bentuk playlist . Harapannya temen-temen yang nonton pembahasannya akan punya semacam bank soal yang dikelompokkan dalam playlist  tematik berdasarkan tipe ujian di mana soal tersebut muncul. Konsepnya simpel. Kita bahas soal-soal matematika yang muncul di beberapa ujian. Pembahasannya dilakukan seintuitif mungkin di atas whiteboard , So you get the feel of tackling the problems yourself, on a plain whiteboard—just like our teachers usually do . Channelnya baru aja...

Some Thoughts Lately

Oleh -
For some time now, I'm feeling drained. I lost any sort of appetite for recognition — something I eagerly sought throughout the years. Partly due to the feeling of being left behind and the inability to keep up with all the trends and advancements. Or it's just because I am slowly aging and gradually losing more energy to polish my LinkedIn profile. I will turn 37 this August (insha Allah). I've been quite lazy recently to utilise my brain up to its optimal level. I just completed my reading of Kahneman's Noise ( which took me almost 2 years to complete ) and now am reluctantly reading more serious books — something that's not very typical of me. I've been developing a fascination towards more story-like books: novels, short stories, and other artistic literature . In particular, I have started reading Indonesian novels with marginal themes such as Orang-Orang Proyek . I found myself enjoying Animal Farm too. I don't know. Perhaps I need to try to...

8 Years and Counting

Oleh -
 Yangg, It feels like just yesterday, When our eyes met for the first time. Nope. Kidding. This 8 years have been a roller-coaster. This 8 years might not be what we pictured at the beginning, but they gave us so much more than we ever imagined. From that first sundae cup I gave it to you, to the tongue-dancing fried rice you made last night. Every breath we take, every fight we've fought Every eye-roll you gave me,  Every sigh I let out when looking your clothes cluttered about. It all just pulls us even closer. I can't imagine a single day without you. The Carpenters said: "I won't last a day without you". That might actually be true. Through all the headaches, debates and politics I endure at the office, you grace me with your smile. That lovely smile Through all our fights, however hard they get, a slick kiss always lands on my cheek, melting all the angers away. Now, with two sons joining us on this journey. I love you even more effortlessly, day by day. I co...

Contemplation at My Cubicle

Oleh -
They say life runs in a mysterious way. I guess it's true. Unfortunately, for me, at the moment, it's all going south. And it remains a mystery why every time I get a fresh money, world apparently wants to squeeze the hell out of it. So, at the end of the day, I remain broke.  But, that's the way it works I guess. It cannot go forever like this, can it? Sorry for troubling you guys with this post. I just have no clue right now about what I'm going to do and to whom I need to talk to. Trying to stay alive, I guess. Because too many people rely on me, I cannot die now. I want to live for the next 100 years. I want to live. Cheer up, big boy! Later on, you will come back with a wider smile.

Untitled Project: Towards Ending

 Jafar terkesiap. "Kau akan ke mana? Apakah Dia akan membuatmu senang? Sadarlah, X. Takkah Kau terpikir bahwa Dia hanya menginginkan hal lain saja darimu? Tubuhmu, uangmu, atau apalah?", Jafar bertanya dengan nafas memburu.  Ia tahu Ia cemburu. Ia tahu ini adalah kiamat kecil baginya. Sekilas tampak dalam kepalanya bahwa besok Ia mungkin tidak akan bertemu lagi dengan X. Bayangan yang dipenuhi dengan gantungan awan yang lusuh ketika pagi membuka halaman baru baginya di keesokan hari. Tidak akan ada lagi X yang tersenyum dengan senyumannya yang paling manis menurut dirinya. "Aku hanya kehilangan rasa cintaku untuk dirimu, Jafar. Aku tidak menghilang. Aku hanya jatuh cinta. Tetapi bukan kepadamu" Jafar berupaya kuat agar air mata tidak jatuh dari kelopak matanya yang kapalan. "Aku kira perasaanku Kau sambut, X. Kita pergi bersama ke mana-mana. Kita menghabiskan sebagian waktu kita berdua. Aku yang meminjamkan telinga bagi setiap ceritamu" X menghela napas. D...

Untitled Project: Ending

Jafri memutar tuas gas di tangan kanannya dalam-dalam sembari menghirup lembaran oksigen yang terselip di tengah kumpulan asap karbon yang keluar dari berbagai macam knalpot kendaraan lainnya. Tetapi bukan panasnya asap karbon tersebut yang membuat hatinya hangat. Pendaran sinar matahari yang jatuh dari langit yang benar-benar biru di pagi itulah yang menguapkan segala keharuannya. Matanya menatap lurus ke arah kendaraan yang berlari di depannya. Sesekali ia menoleh ke atas, memutarkan pandangannya pada pohon-pohon yang tumbuh di sisi jalanan Pondok Indah. Dan Ketika sepeda motornya meraung berlari memasuki underpass , bibirnya bergerak lirih menyuarakan bunyi yang damai. "Terima kasih."
