kemarin pagi saat bear bersiap2 berangkat bekerja pasha terbangun dr tidurnya.. melihat papa dan bertanya…
pasha: “papa.. kemana??”
papa: ” mau kerja nak.. ”
pasha: “kenapa kerja..??”
sejenak kami berdua terpaku pada pertanyaan kritis pertamanya..
papa: “supaya papa dapat uang jadi bisa belikan milo untuk pasha..”
pasha:”ooo..”
dlm hati tak tau mesti merasa takjub apa girang.. anakku sudah besar.. sdh mulai mempertanyakan perbuatan yg diambil oleh ayah dan ibunya..
kalau sudah begini.. terbersit sebuah pertanyaan dalam hati kecil.. sanggupkah aku meninggalkan anak kesayangan ku dalam asuhan orang lain?? sanggupkah diriku untuk tidak lagi mendapatkan “privillages” yg pertama melihat kemajuan dalam perkembangannya..
aku jd bimbang… pertanyaan2 itu kembali menggugah niat awal ku yg sudah bulat sebulan yg lalu untuk kembali bekerja setelah lebaran nanti..
seandainya aku tetap dirumah mengasuh anakku dengan tangan ku sendiri mampukah aku menunaikan kewajiban finansialku pada sebuah instansi yg bernama bank??
Berikan aku petunjukmu ya Allah.. sungguh aku tak mampu memilih…

Words
Last weekend I learned to differentiate between tactile and tactful. In short, tactile is referring to sense of touch or good with the hands while tactful is about being considerate and discreet.
To make it easier for me to remember, I use thumbtacks. If you give a box of thumbtacks to a tacktile person, he or she could make an art out of them. However, if you are not tactful with that same person, you might get some thumbtacks stuck on your b-u-t-t… That is the easiest way for me to remember…
Memories
Thumbtacks bring back memories during my junior high years. My friends and I were in a class where our brains were more dominant than our muscles. We had a huge problem during the lunch break at the school cafeteria as the other boys from the other classes somehow had their muscles developed much faster than their brains.
We were taught to queue for our food and they were taught the same but somehow, due to some unexplained events, those teaching about being civilized such as, taking turns by queuing up, failed to stick in their head. I guess brains and muscles have different ways of learning stuffs…
As a results, those students would dash to the food counter like bulls on a stampede. Before we knew it, we were pushed to the sides and everywhere else except anywhere near the food…

Bert & Ernie
While bugs are drawn to lights, I was drawn back to this blog when I saw that picture on Google. While the bug phenomenon can be explained scientifically, I do not think that I can explain what that picture has got to do with my blogging… Nevertheless, here I am and Bert & Ernie still remain as puppets I love to watch and Happy 40th Anniversary to Sesame Street!
Addicted
Smokers find it hard to quit. Bloggers are no different. There are times when I felt like not wanting to put these alphabets into words on this space ever again but when other things faded away, the craving was just too much to bear and the words start to form again and one more story enters the blogosphere…
The Other Things
What dragged me out? At first it was just work. A new job, a new place, new people, new this and new that. It took time to settle down. Apart from that, I was just plain lazy as plain as a vanilla ice-cream can be… Plain but tasty… If you like vanilla like I do…
Then Came the Dragons
