This is the way you should do your writing in Mrs. Mamoto’s class. Times New Roman, 12pt, left indent, without justify, just 1 space needed. She said that’s the way intellectual write their essays. For me, it’s a sign of plainness. Tradition sets itself as being plain, living in a standard way. I see it as a boring routine. Thank God our life doesn’t have to be that way. Thank God for Gutenberg, who inspire other typographers out there, to create their own set of new typography.
Because of them, we can all use Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, Trebuchet, and other sorts of fonts. Thank God we can all now write in different sets of points. I can use 10pt if I want to, as long as I think that’s comfortable enough to be read. I feel blessed to know that my life doesn’t have to be as plain as Mamoto’s writing rules, or other academic standards.
Today I met my friends; we hang out at Citos on our usual place, Brew &Co. That is the one true place where we feel guilty if we didn’t go there at Citos. It’s quite intriguing for me to realize that I can actually felt that way about one particular place. Does that place give me some kind of intimidation in a way that this guilty feeling develop? Or is it merely because it’s already feels like home?
Hmmm so now the point is: not going to a place that gives you a homey feeling, can cause you to have a sort of guilty feeling… that’s it? Hahahaha it just doesn’t make any sense, or is it? People nowadays become more and more individualistic, they become more independent towards their own basic needs. They create different ‘home’ for themselves. Home is no longer a certain place where you grew up, where your family is, where you have a living room, a bed room, fire place, a back yard for barbecue, or a your own bed to wonder. Home has become a more expandable term. Your home is where your heart is.
Well, then, let’s move on to relationships. Does your current relationship with your surroundings, with your loved ones really made you feel like home? Or is it the other way around. Does it give you a feeling of secure ness? Does it help you to forget things, forget your stress? Does it give you any relief? Does it let you be who ever you wanna be?
I haven’t met ficky for 3 weeks now, and on the early days, I was kinda frustrated with it. We’re in a relationship where we can’t even build one in an intense frequency. Week after week, I go stronger in facing this issue; I become more content in being with my friends rather than feeling sorry for myself. I become independent in my own way. But then again, I almost lost interest towards my own boyfriend. What can I really say about it now? Nothing really.
Tahiti 80 with Get Yourself Together … it talks to me and to what I’m facing right now. I don’t know what I can save myself from. At some point, I think I just lost it…
