A Best Friend of Mine - A Very Wise Person

"There are some memories with your best friend you can never forget. But, no matter what. You have to keep moving forward. Either you can or not. But, you have to."

"Ada saat dimana seorang pria tetap berkelahi meski ia tau ia akan kalah, dan ada saat dimana seorang pelawak tetap melawak meski ia tau lawakannya tidak menghibur".

Assalamu'alaikum.
Actually, the second wisdom words above doesn't make sense with this writing. But, I remember that so much. 'Cause The one who told me about those wisdom words is my best friend in junior high school. If I wrote my another best friend who always support me before. Now, I'm writing about someone who is very wise. He is young enough. He was born on 6th April 1998. But, even it's so, he is the wisest friend I've ever had.

When we were on junior high school. Sometimes, in the night we chatted on facebook and share our story. And also share some videos or musics that we like to hear. Until we got to senior high school. We still have a good communication. But, when we got 2nd grade we started to rarely chat. Business is the main problem we have. Now, we have business in different world. He is in student council in his high school. And I'm in my high school. Because of that we just met in the real world just once in this year. It happened because we were invited in our friend's birthday party.

When I have a story to tell, about my school, my problem, or even my love-life. I send a message to him. But, lately he is kinda busy of his business and I hear from my friend that he has a problem. So, he rarely to chat me. I thought that my message would disturb him. Because I quite often send him a message ._.

Last Sunday, I went to his high school to accompany my friend. Frankly, I wanna see him. But I was afraid I will disturb his business. And I will be such a troublemaker ._. So I just wait my friend in parking lot. And I hope that he would meet me in parking lot. But, He didn't. So I went to my another friend's house.

Dho Ridho, I wanna share you some of kinda-good (I guess) video. Below is the link. Just to let you know, it has been a while since we had our last chat and our last met. I remember when we talk about a good link of joke, song, video, or our story. I won't forget any of our time to share our experience, thanks for that sort of thing. Thanks for those great memories, now enjoy these video.

A Best Friend of Mine

"We all have that one or more friends who always be in our heart."

I don't know exactly what the meaning of friendship is, till' I got a friend in my junior high school. I got many friends and some of them are my best friend. And that one person, I got in touch with her when we were on 9th grade. Frankly, we already had been close friend from 7th grade. But, it is just "close" friend. Just it.


 When we were in 9th grade. I don't know just an accident that we were in same position. She was my desk mate. From that on, we started to study together, share each other's story, and do something together. We even got course together in my other friend's home.

That time, I loved a girl. and She loved a boy. Not so lucky. The girl who I loved, love the boy who she loved. Hahaha. That's true!! It's a real story. We had a same story.

And at last, when we got different high school. I said that we had to still keep in touch. And So did her.

But, turns out business in senior high school have made us can't communicate well. And now, when I realize that she is my best friend who always be there for me, I started to chat and get in touch with her again. But, I don't know. Lately, she is little bit different. She doesn't talk too much as before. I don't know why. Just hope that we will get a nice conversation again and everything's gonna be alright. Aamiin.

It's about A Friend of Mine Who Didn't Know How to Copy and Paste.

SMPN 1 Singosari 1 - My Beloved Junior High School

"High school is the best place for you to make some amazing memories."

Penyebab aku menulis cerita bersambung ini adalah karena munculnya rasa kangen terhadap masa-masa smp. Sejenak, sebelum menlanjutkan cerita bersambung "basketball life". Aku ingin kembali menyelami masa-masa indah bersekolah di SMPN 1 Singosari dengan cerita bersambung juga.

---

Ketika pertama kali aku ingin mendaftar di SMPN 1 Singosari program RSBI. Aku mendapat masalah. Karena ternyata baru saja pendaftaran ditutup satu minggu yang lalu. Aku kecewa dengan hal itu. Karena dari awal aku sudah bercita-cita untuk masuk SMPN 1 Singosari terutama program RSBI-nya. 

Saat itu mamaku mencoba untuk melakukan negoisasi dengan salah satu staf kurikulum di sekolah kami. Mamaku menceritakan prestasi ku selama di SD, mulai dari yang akademik seperti juara 2 lomba mapel matematika, juara 2 lomba siswa berprestasi, dan selalu mendapat peringkat 1 sejak kelas 1. Sampai yang non-akademik seperti juara 3 lomba puisi, juara 1 lomba presenter, juara 1 turnamen ssb se-malang raya, dll. Memang tidak ada cara lain untuk membujuk staf kurikulum selain cara itu. Akhirnya, beliau memintaku dan mamaku untuk mengumpulkan piagam dan fotocopy rapot hari itu juga. Akhirnya selesai. Beliau tidak berjanji aku bisa mengikuti seleksi program RSBI. Beliau mencoba membantu untuk me-lobby kepada kepala sekolah saat rapat nanti. Beliau juga menyatakan jika ternyata tidak bisa, aku masih bisa masuk program RSBI melalui jalur reguler terlebih dahulu.

Setelah itu, kami pulang dan menunggu hasil keputusan rapat Senin nanti.

Saat hari Senin tiba, kami melakukan cek kesehatan di puskesmas Singosari sebagai salah satu syarat masuk SMPN 1 Singosari. Setelah melakukan tes kesehatan itu. Kami meluncur ke SMPN 1 Singosari. Masalah tak khayal datang lagi. Staf kurikulum tersebut mengatakan bahwa hasil rapat tidak memperbolehkan aku yang terlambat mendaftar mengikuti seleksi. Mamaku mencoba melakukan nego lagi. Staf kurikulum tidak banyak berbicara. Beliau hanya mengatakan akan membantu sebisa mungkin. Kemudian, beliau menyuruhku untuk datang melihat pengumuman hasil seleksi administrasi saja Sabtu nanti.

Sabtunya, aku datang ke SMPN 1 Singosari dan melihat bahwa ada namaku!

Akhirnya, setelah melakukan rangkain seleksi. Aku dinyatakan di terima di SMPN 1 Singosari berada di urutan ke-2 dari 96 siswa yang diterima.

The only way to beat the best is to be better than the rest. 

Be unique and harness your creativity and talent in your own terms, not to defy the originality of others around you.
