miskin prestasi
Thursday, October 27th, 2005"miskin prestasi!"
hmm, that could be the appropriate term to describe my condition in recent years. lack of achievement. having no award, failing in competition, being in the-just-average level or even lower than that…well, that’s true..
looking at an old picture of me holding a trophy, i remember the first time having an award. i won the third place of junior high art drawing competition. i was in second year. and soon after that, i won several trophies also in art drawing competitions. not too many, only it’s enough to make me proud and happy. mom dad bro and sis smile looking at trophies in the family room. being in top 3 students was also something that always makes my parents smile on the end of each semester/cawu.. (hey, do you still remember caturwulan,raport,etc? )…
well, it was until i came to senior high. i started drowning to the lowest five. ha-ha.. although it was under a competition in a top class. luckily, i still won some drawing competitions when i was in senior high. still, i started to come to an era of achievement-shortage from then..
as a college student? don’t ask me about that. i was just an average one. i didnt catch any award. i struggled to pass with average scores..
i did try to jump in some competitions. let’s say, writing competition, design competition, visual art, concept award, and so on..all came in vain..
what happened? is it me who lost ‘the self-achieved mind’? or the world just getting tougher to beat? once i concluded that i might come into higher level communities where i turn out to be the ordinary one..and also lose some capabilities (i mean: lack of higher skill)..
i miss the achievements..i still try hard to get some recently..i do..
achievement could be nothing. while it also could be everything for me. it could be one of parameter for what i’ve been doing. it could be one that motivates me to achieve more (this could be the most important one indeed)..
well, i am not giving up! i want to achieve more. i want to take myself to reach higher..(gloria estefan taught me so…haha..)
yup..i did run and yell "i wanna go i wanna fight i wanna win! arsitektur…" haha.. it still remains in my mind.. dont make it to no avail…
yeah, i am pursuing my own personal legend… it’s my life, it’s now or never!…. santiago and bon jovi taught me this time..haha.. :p
well, what about you my friends?
