#9: Happiness

 Day 9 of 30 days writing challenge.

Happiness

I am everything but happy right now, I'm sorry. Not really in the mood to talk about happiness so today we'll be off topic.

Not happy now.

Just heard a heartbreaking news about work-related stuff, and the feel of rejection is similar with the one that I felt during my apprenticeship year, when I heard that my Studio Coordinator gave me an E so I have to do another year again (8 hours credits do it another year, he hated me gut and my window shape, so yeah I'm screwed). Always thought that drawing buildings isn't my thing, but I stuck there nonetheless. Come to think of it, my undergrad years were full of sh*t and sadness, there's always this lecturer that hated your design. And you felt like crap). I cried back then, on the rooftop of RRI building where my project management took place. I'm not always bright, I've been through hell. And it's not sweet.

Anyways, I'm not unfamiliar with this kind of feelings. But the feel of rejection still gets me every time. The worst feeling ever is when I knew I was cheated on (this is an old story, maybe you'll get tired hearing this), but I can still feel the heartache, same old thing, rejection. 




Useless

I know, it's no use to complain about your pain, there's noone to hear me out. I'm screaming inside my head. Just now I'm really stressed out I can't even cry. The sad thing is, you've been working for more than a decade, but a bunch of know-it-all people suddenly assessed you, and deemed you as unworthy.

So what's with us doing all our work, even until now?
So what's with us spending years studying?
So what's with us not having any dignity left?
So what's wrong with you? Look down on people that much, as if you lots got what it takes to even know about our work, let alone assess us as qualified or not. 

You lots don't even do your job, our whole system is a mess. I'm more than fed up, but I've gotta pay my bills.

I am so sad, this is actually my lowest point in my working life. I've spent most of it feeling out of place and all, but what I feel right now is downright shame. If only God can listen, He'll know what I feel. I've been keeping a low profile since day 1, and have been told as stupid repeatedly by people that actually have no brains whatsoever, and this guy don't even have the right qualifications, but he got like high score, I mean, wtf???  But this kind of situation I'm in is like, man, I.can't.breath.

Happiness

Just yesterday, I can tell happy stuff. But not today, I'm sorry.

Ikhtiar

Ingin sekedar berbagi cerita tentang perjalanan hidup sampai mendapatkan yang dinanti-nanti.  Alhamdulillah dua tahun slowdown karena pandemi membawa berkah. Setahun setelah menikah, kami dianugerahi seorang putri yang sangat kami sayangi. Perjalanan  mendapatkannya bisa dibilang tidak mudah. Akumulasi semua pengalaman sebelumnya, banyak rintangan yang dihadapi. Namun syukurlah Allah memberikan amanah kepada kami sekeluarga.  Berkah Habatussaudah Ternyata hadits Rasulullah tentang keutamaan Habatussaudah atau jinten hitam sebagai obat segala penyakit* benar adanya. Jinten hitam ini adalah faktor pembeda utama, selain suami yang sangat sabar dan waktu di rumah yang lebih panjang karena work from home (wfh) . Setelah menikah dengan suami yang penyabar ini, saya disarankan oleh adik saya untuk berikhtiar dengan cara mengkonsumsi 7 (tujuh) butir Habatussaudah/jinten hitam yang sudah disangrai dan madu setiap hari. Cukup tujuh butir, tidak perlu banyak-banyak karena Habatuss...

Mama Drama (yang tercinta)

Selain MLM dan rokok, ada satu hal lagi yang saya bener-bener ga tahan: Mama Drama.  ------- (Warning: postingan ini bikin emak-emak hardchore kejang-kejang. Use it wisely. 😂  Move along at your own risk. ) ------- Semua ibu-ibu baru ini (seumuran sama saya) kelakuannya sangat tipikal di media sosial macam facebook dan path. Terlalu banyak membagi informasi mengenai anak-anaknya dan sangat sangat sangat emosional jika diingatkan ( mama bear will bite you to death! ). Saya sampai pada satu titik dimana saya sangat yakin bahwa mungkin dulu saya tidak benar-benar berteman dengan mereka, karena jelas sekali saya di luar lingkaran mereka (dari segi bahasa, kehidupan, dan persepsi) (Semua ilustrasi saya hapus karena yang punya drama emosi..) Panggilan tipikal: si anu mamanya anu Yang bikin saya paling sadar kalo saya bukan temannya lagi itu adalah saat saya lihat statusnya dan komen-komen di statusnya, semua orang adalah mama/papa/ayah/bunda/kakek/nenek dari nama si...

The Revelation of the Infamous Hags

Well, well, well. What d'you know? At first you were their friends, but right there at the moment they don't need you anymore or despise you with hatred and envy you with all their might--you just turn into the object of their cruelty! Disguise in their keen elegance, never did they actually revealed their truer form infront of promising 'customers'. They even can agitate people into hating each other--and some people really take it personally and even put grudge to people they don't even know! Sick isn't it? Well, they DO dressed nice, covering all that evil devilish thoughts behind their artificial skins. But once you see them, they're nothing but ol' malicious hags, lurking around for prey. Their smiles aren't genuine. Their acts always for the sake of themselves and themselves only--whether to bossing around, getting ETERNAL youth (?), or just bullying others that potentially harmful for their mighty being. I wonder why some people still can'...
