Saat lukamu terlalu sakit untuk kau rasakan ketika kau terjaga, maka tidurlah.

Saat kakimu terlalu lelah untuk kau gunakan untuk melangkah, sejenak berhentilah.

Saat pintu hatimu dibanting dan ditutup keras oleh orang-orang yang kau kasihi, biarkanlah pintu itu tertutup sebentar.

Sampai lukamu sembuh, sampai kakimu kembali kuat, sampai hatimu dibukakan oleh kasih yang lain.

Seharian ini sejak pagi asyik merusuhi website yang membuka ajang menulis yang namanya NANOWRIMO. Apa, tuh, NANOWRIMO? Hear here.. NANOWRIMO itu singkatan dari National Novel Writing Month di mana alurnya kita memiliki jadwal menulis dari tanggal 1 November sampai 30 November (if I'm not mistaken) dan ada goal yang sebaiknya dicapai yaitu: 50.000 kata. Di mana setiap tanggal 25 November, tulisan kita yang sudah kita mulai dari tanggal 1 November itu akan dihitung jumlah katanya oleh robot yang dipekerjakan oleh situs itu. Kalau sudah mencapai 50.000 kata, maka kita menang dan disebut 'the winner'. Tenang saja, kita bisa menulis di dalam bahasa apapun, bahasa Indonesia juga boleh. Jangankan begitu, bahasa Esperanto saja bisa digunakan. Karena yang terpenting di sini adalah jumlah kata dan niat kesungguhan seorang penulis mengerahkan seluruh idenya untuk menjadi sebuah NOVEL.

Awal sejarahnya sendiri, sih, lucu. Ajang ini dimulai sejak tahun 1999 di mana yang ikut berpartisipasi hanya 21 orang dan yang menang (mampu menulis 50.000 kata selama 1-25 November) hanya enam orang keseluruhan. Tapi setelah dibandingkan dengan hasil terakhir yakni tahun 2008 kemarin, perkembangannya kelihatan sekali cukup signifikan. 119.301 orang berpartisipasi dengan 21.683 orang mampu mengisi kursi pemenang. Beberapa dari novel yang ditulis dalam kurun waktu itu juga berhasil mencetak New York Times #1 Best Seller! (wow?)

Nampaknya bagus untuk membakar semangat supaya bisa niat menulis novel dalam sebulan. Teman-teman sudah buat draft dari plot dan karakternya, sepertinya. Dan aku belum membuat apa-apa. Awal yang malas dari seorang pemalas.

Tapi tak apa... kalau aku mau iseng, sih, mungking aku bisa saja mengambil plot-plotku yang terbengkalai kemarin. Sepertinya aku tidak akan menulis topik-topik yang terlalu berat karena ini ajang uji nyali. Sesuatu yang dimulai dengan hal-hal rumit, ke depannya pasti akan jadi rumit juga, kan? Dan sepertinya aku akan mengikutsertakan hasil tulisan di sini ke lomba cerber Femina. Sekali dayung, dua tiga pulau terlampaui.

NANOWRIMO ini lumayan menarik karena setelah bergabung di dalamnya, ada semacam forum penulis yang membahas tentang situs-situs bagus buat penulis, mungkin juga ada semacam brainstorming ide dari beberapa penulis di sana di beberapa thread tertentu: Fantasi, Adventur, Romans, dan lainnya. Kalau aku sendiri, sih, sepertinya akan mencampuradukkan genre ceritaku, seperti biasa.

Kebanyakan dari yang gabung di NANOWRIMO adalah orang-orang yang cukup ambisius untuk kita amati sehingga kita bisa mengambil sedikit manfaat dari niat kuat mereka itu. Akhir kata, Let's write for Nanowrimo!

Go go Nanowrimo Indonesia, go!

The first, nickname as D, commonly people in my forum society knew him as a very enthusiastic person. He mastered at making computer programs and he’s using Linux well, he’s cooperated with some list names as like GNU, FDL, anything I don’t know well. His writings also not so bad, he wrote good stories, even he wrote unique theme which not every amateur writer in Indonesia able to write in the theme. He wrote stories in fantasy theme even though he ever confessed that he didn’t even ever read Harry Potter, yet. Anyone see that at where you took your study isn’t the main point to get literate your mind?

Another, called him J, he’s my best brother I’ve ever had. He taught me all things about writings. Just tell one of good writer names to him, he may able to explain more than just the book titles of the writers. And his writings are really good, he did make a research for all of his writings so that you can’t imagine he did even like making a real story for under 1945 eras or in a colonial situation in Indonesia even though the writings weren’t taking from the real life. I can say that that’s great.

But why those two great men chose to go to have their study online without facing up with anyone else in a real condition?

The reason why people choose studying online can be because universities had becoming very expensive high rate, some of smart people who don’t deserve their mind get drying only because of that will just trying to take around their environment; searching for an affordable better place to study, and they would find it from internet since educated-well people are gathering on here.

Some of them maybe don’t have much time. They could study over the internet while they’re working so that they chose to take this.

For you who have much money and want to study abroad, this site also give more information about it, you can get your health insurance and you’ll get some like student credit cards and prepaid cards to be used abroad to make easier you sent money to your children who studied far away from you or make it easier your parents sent you money from your home country.

Anyway, this site offered everything about how to get a better study in many ways. Here’s the more information if you want get more.

It’s the song is really soft playing. I made a walk there. But I didn’t realize that that’s my mom in front of me, walking with someone I don’t know. I lost that time to meet her earlier. Till at the end of my dream, suddenly, I hug her. I don’t know why I don’t even realize that that’s my mom I hug that moment.

And the dream was over. After that, I realized, hell, that’s my mom who came to my dream. And the time is just too fast moving.

Yes, precisely, I still miss that hug till now. Till the other hoax dream of her was coming. It’s such a nightmare. Sigh.

Yet, I’m here now. In my class I always suddenly found myself thought like why I was here, what did I do here, what did I write for, even sometimes like.. HEY, IT’S TOO EASY FOR ME. I didn’t literate here, my mind wasn’t growing up. What kind of class is it I come for everyday and must have attendances for 75 percents in whole semester? It was boring. The lectures were stubborn-headed, too-much-talking-blank-nude-words. And yeah, not all of the lectures did that, but some have HIS big yes for this.

In home, sometimes I want crying. Sometimes I’m just happy. Sometimes I can’t forget. Sometimes I even like forget everything, till can’t remember every little thing.

My aunt told me that maybe it happened because I’ve earned too much bad times either too long road to be throught. My mind’s still shocked. Sometimes I think yes, yet, it is. I know I’m still too young to prove that I’ve been mature enough yet I’m not.

Now I’m still studying for it my dream. And sure it is, it’s tiring. I wish I’m not lost for trice. I wish even I can get better future than I hoped for almost the time.
