Just A Note About Myself

Gambar
It's been a long while since the last time I wrote something here. Things happened but not much has changed in my life. People still asking me, why do I hate commitment? Why do I stay where I am right now? Why don't I take risk and go out of the box, leave my comfort zone, stay where I am. Honestly, I am scared. Scared of what might happen if I step out from my comfort zone. life has been so hard on me and despite all that, I am grateful that I made out of it alive. There are times when I thought I might kill myself, living in a 7 floors building with an easy access to the emergency staircase and leaped off from the top of this building.

Budaya Alay dan Pembodohan Generasi Muda

Akhir – akhir ini, ada budaya baru melanda generasi muda kita. Barisan huruf dan angka yang mereka bilang sebagai kata dan kemudian dikenal sebagai tulisan alay. Tidak ada yang tahu kapan tulisan aneh ini muncul, tetapi kemungkinan, setelah sebuah kontes menulis pesan singkat sangat pendek yang dibuat oleh salah satu profider yang menjadi pemicunya. Awalnya mungkin bertujuan sebagai promosi dan penyaluran kreativitas, budaya baru ini berubah jadi pembodohan masal generasi muda. Hampir semua remaja di seluruh Indonesia, tidak peduli di kota – kota besar maupun kecil, mengenal bahasa alay dan inilah yang membuat saya beranggapan bahasa ini adalah bahasa pembodohan generasi muda Indonesia. Kenapa saya bilang sebagai bahasa pembodohan? Kata – kata pada tulisan yang berputar antar para alayers, yang menyalah gunakan huruf vokal, diftong diganti dengan gabungan huruf vokal atau bahkan huruf vokal diganti dengan angka ('a' jadi 4, 'i' jadi 1, 'e' jadi angka 3 dst).
