Life through half of 2017

Been a while.

I am on silent mode now.

Literally.

My mind is just flying around for what I have been through in the last one year. I might not remember the details, but still can feel those feelings when remembering the moment.

Instagram stories is taking over Snapgram audiences with those 24 hours moment keeping, face filters, fun rewind features, and still with the timeline full of audiences awesome holiday and fancy imageries.

Oh Go-Jekers, who is the truly hero with Go-Food feature and all the Go-Send, Go-Pay, and others Go that taking over usual abang-abang jobs. A one stop solution for the lazy generations like us. Oh, sharing to you an unfinished random thought related to this :

"Kita hidup di era semua sudah serba cepat dan mudah. One click away. Hanya dengan satu klik kita bisa dapat makanan yang kita suka, transportasi yang siap mengantar kemana saja, urusan travel jadi serba bisa, dsb.

Ini membuat kita kemudian merasa segala sesuatu harus serba instan dan harus ada di depan mata. Kita tidak lagi mau menunggu terlalu lama. Bahkan 10 atau 15 menit terasa seperti lama sekali, karena terbiasa dengan 3 menit, ojeknya sampai, satu menit, tiket kereta sudah terpesan, dan dalam waktu setengah jam perut sudah kenyang.

Mungkin sebagian orang dari kita mulai belajar menghargai waktu. Kita menjadi serba sigap, serba tepat waktu, which is great.

Tapi bagaimana dengan sebagian dari kita yang tidak, yang kemudian justru menjadi egois. Kita bertindak seolah konsumen adalah raja di atas segala raja?"

Then what about those new online raising stars whom people look up to? Yes, they are exist. They are all growing in the industries. For whatever they try to sell and convince, good things from my point of view is they are creators. They create something to be consumped by others. They are doing something! If they have more and more followers or subscribers, that's the plus points for them since they keep themselves to be creative as they can.

The past one year also a tough year for some religion and racism issues, no? Well yeah, if I am not saying anything about this, doesn't mean I don't care. I am just not that capable enough for saying anything. A line from Cin(t)a movie, if you can not make any peace there, the least you can do is not to make any war here.

Social media kills. Just be carefull with everything you say and share. Things you think are fine, might not fine for anyone else.

I met more and more people. I got more and more new knowledges and experiences. I have more and more things I want.

Be more adaptive to surroundings and you will be fine. At least, try it!

Expectation kills. But won't kill you anyway. I get to set a new plan for now. This year might not be my year as I expected, but this supposed to be fine, no? The backup plan is listed already. So, I just need to follow each plan one by one passing it.

This one blog post won't capture all things I passed this one year. But, happy enough, afterall I have time to write and think for correcting my life resolutions.
