Really need to install Photoshop and tablet driver thing.

In discussion about welcoming graduates, Baruna (Architecture 2012) was choosing concept from 3 alternatives:
A. traditional game;
B. local heroes fighting evil;
C. Ibu Pertiwi chasing away bad effect of globalization
A was scratched by vote, B was sacrificed in discussion, and C was sacrificed too not long after. So the winner is…?
“Local heroes saving Ibu Pertiwi from bad effect of globalization”
… just call it BC okay.

The next discussion is quite gruesome.
How are we going to carry out this theme?
“Can we just do theme BC with the fighting emphasis? We don’t need lot of symbolization in 5 minute show.”
“NO!” “Symbolization is what makes it different.”
Ah, they rejected my suggestion flatly… see? I’m not capable of this. 
Then suddenly theme D emerged!
“Searching Ibu Pertiwi in contest, how about that?”
“It’s not feasible,” “Too complex,” “We can’t insert dances there.”
 *tuned out discussion, thinking hard*

“…actually, we can do theme D.”
“How?”
*explaining with pace racing with memory deletion*
“Sorry, I don’t get it,” “Yeah, me too,”
“It needs spoken narration, we can’t have that.”
“We can tell the audience by gestures!”
“Are you sure it can be delivered?” “It’s still complex.”
“No,” I MEAN YES, I HATE YOU ANXIETY 
“…Never mind that, return to previous discussion please.” 
Then, I noticed that the discussion was hovering around the fighting theme.
DANGIT I am so done with discussion!

I felt someone poke my shoulder.
“Hey hey Nunu. I think there are too much people in this discussion. Maybe we should working on chants in procession?”
It led to most unexpected thing ever:
Ayya, Maya, Lina and I singing Minky Momo’s theme, to LoonyToon’s theme, to Wiro Sableng’s theme. For your information, this group was never found together before.

I guess become more talkative has its profit.

Have you ever been informed that I tend to ignore things that deemed troublesome?
In Penjenjangan, I was forced to meet and work with people 14 hours a day.
Talking to people became troublesome in such condition,
I tuned out conversations and focused on what can I do instead (in other words, became a ninja)
Of course, my seniors had to point out my “lack of concern” sometimes. (“It’s my self defense against insanity”)
They didn’t buy my quirk, they kept pressing on this matter (so I deemed them troublesome too)
“Do you know what the point of this event is?” (to brainwash us to be idealistic snob?)
“There won’t be inauguration till ’12 unify” (are you kidding me)
“Have you ever talked in forum?” (“Big forum no, internal forum yes”)
“Where’s your contribution?” (“I did idea-tweak here and there, morale support, made lot of properties and—“)
“We’ll be waiting for you to speak up in next forum.” (WE WERE HAVING ONE SIDED CONVERSATION WERENT WE)
To stop the preaching from become long winded, I kept my good-natured face. (forcefully)
“Yes I understand, Miss. I’ll do my best in next forum”, I politely replied.
And then, the next forum was an internal one. It was moderated by leaders of Penjenjangan. (all hail the big fiiiive)
We talked about how contribution is immeasurable. (pffft)
Apparently, Kak Steven thought that “Unity is BULLSHIT!”(sic) and “What matters are what you do for others” (HAHAHAHHAH)
We reached the conclusion that everyone has their potential and not everyone is suitable for talking.

^try to re-read this by overlooking words in bracket. That’s probably how people hear me when I tell them something.
