Cinta dan Pernikahan dalam Islam

www.lutfiprayogi.co.cc

Dulu ketika kelas X SMA, ketika Virus Merah Jambu sedang menjangkiti angkatan dan menghasilkan ‘pasangan-pasangan’ baru, Rohis bergerak dan mempropagandakan gerakan anti-pacaran. Berbagai argumen diangkat saat itu: tidak adanya status pacaran dalam Islam, pacaran menjerumuskan pada perzinaan, dalam Islam cinta dengan lawan jenis hanya boleh ada pada pasangan yang telah menikah, dll. Dengan didukung oleh sifat pribadi saya yang cenderung mandiri, argumen yang bisa saya terima dan pahami serta saya jadikan alasan bagi saya untuk tidak berpacaran hingga beberapa waktu yang lalu adalah: seperti apapun itu halusnya, pacaran akan mendekatkan dua orang pada perzinaan di antaranya.

My high school’s performances are always outstanding! :)

2011

www.lutfiprayogi.co.cc

Inspired by Facebook Timeline, I would like to create a flashback album of my life in 2011. My friend and colleague Vera said that 2011 is a special year for us (Architecture UI 2007 students), since lot of big things happened fast in it. Those events also do have significant impacts on our life. I do agree with her. Let’s have a glimpse on my life in 2011. :)

January 6, 2011. The external review of Architecture Design 5. For me and maybe some other Architecture UI 2007 students, this is the end of the ‘studio suffrage era’. :D

It also marked the start of the final phase of our undergraduate study, the undergraduate thesis phase. \(-_-)/

Read the caption. One of the most humanistic picture I’ve ever seen on Kompas.

Avatar: The Last Airbender

www.lutfiprayogi.co.cc

Avatar: The Last Airbender in my opinion uses the same technique as Star Wars, which is creating complex yet beautiful storyline and deliver it in high quality. Avatar is somewhat simpler and softer than Star Wars, and sometimes simple and soft thing is easier to watch, isn’t it? :)

Beyond the simple, soft, and easy-to-watch side of Avatar, in this post I’d like to show some socio-cultural-political phenomena in our contemporary life, which are exercised and incorporated into Avatar’s storyline. Whether those phenomena are good or bad, I hope we remember and understand that some of them are still taking place in our life.

Star Wars Episode I-VI

www.lutfiprayogi.co.cc

I do appreciate Star Wars movies (Episode IV, V, VI, I, II, and III, excluding the animated version) as some best movies ever, masterpiece of its time, honorable record in human history. :)

I used to assess movie quality on two main points: the storyline and the delivery of the story. Star Wars’ storyline is undoubtedly complex, yet beautiful. Its about politics, and also about personal life. Its adrenaline raising, yet romantic. Its harsh, yet touching. Its masculine, yet feminine. And of course everything are harmoniously in place. 9,5 out of 10 for the storyline! The storyline is also delivered wonderfully: convincing acting, powerful visual effects, fantastic soundtrack and sound effects, remarkably detailed visual properties, etc. 9,5 out of 10 for the delivery of the story! :)

Balada Pembayaran PKB

Ini adalah pengalaman kesekian kalinya saya membayar Pajak Kendaraan Bermotor (PKB) tahunan di Satuan Administrasi Manunggal Satu Atap (Samsat) Dinas Pendapatan Provinsi Jawa Barat. Selama ini saya selalu membayar PKB di Samsat Depok 2. Di tempat tersebut seluruh proses pembayaran memakan waktu paling cepat 1 jam 30 menit perorang, walaupun orang tersebut datang pada pukul 07.00, 30 menit sebelum kantor tersebut buka di pukul 07.30. -__-

There You’ll Be

Faith Hill – There You’ll Be

When I think back on these times
And the dreams we left behind
I’ll be glad ’cause I was blessed to get
To have you in my life
When I look back on these days
I’ll look and see your face
You were right there for me

In my dreams
I’ll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There always be a place
For you for all my life
I’ll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you’ll be
And everywhere I am
There you’ll be

Well you showed me how it feels
To feel the sky within my reach
And I always will remember all
The strength you gave to me
Your love made me make it through
Oh, I owe so much to you
You were right there for me

In my dreams
I’ll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There always be a place
For you for all my life
I’ll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you’ll be

‘Cause I always saw in you
My light, my strength
And I want to thank you
Now for all the ways
You were right there for me (You were right there for me)
You were right there for me
For always

In my dreams
I’ll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There always be a place
For you for all my life
I’ll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you’ll be
And everywhere I am
There you’ll be

There you’ll be

Bangsa individualis? Bangsa mana?

www.lutfiprayogi.co.cc

Malam ini saya terlibat perbincangan menarik dengan Fajrie Nuary dan Nur Hasan mengenai “Bangsa manakah yang individualis?”. Mereka berkata bahwa bangsa barat lah yang individualis, dan bangsa Indonesia tidak lebih individualis dibanding bangsa barat. Sebagian besar dari kita mungkin akan berpendapat demikian juga.

Saya ingin menyampaikan sudut pandang yang berbeda tentang pengertian ‘individualis’. Saya berpendapat sifat individualis bangsa Indonesia dan bangsa barat berbeda. Menurut saya, sifat individualis bangsa Indonesia adalah ‘yang penting urusan saya selesai (tidak peduli urusan orang lain)’, sedangkan sifat indidivudalis bangsa barat adalah ‘setiap orang punya hak dan urusannya masing-masing’.
