Bisvit Selimut - 17

"Suka betul kau dengar lagu-lagu macam ni." Adi mencabut earfon dari telinga, melihat Rin yang sedang seronok layan Metal Gear Rising Revengeance.

"We're different tho." ujar Rin pendek. Adi mengangguk. People, different taste.

"Tapi kadang-kadang, ada juga yang pertikaikan minat aku." sambung Rin, Adi mengangkat kening sebelah.

"Pertikaikan? Apsal?" mereka berdua memandang laptop Rin, dengan penuh aksi Rin mencantas dan memotong musuhnya dalam game tersebut.

"Entah. Dorang kata lagu aku ni peliklah, mengarutlah, takde feeling langsung nak dengar." Adi berfikir dalam, Rin pula menekan tetikus dan keyboard.

"For me, I listen to music bukan sebab nak nyanyi semata-mata. People, dorang fikir muzik itu hanya untuk nyanyi, not for art." Rin menekan butang 'ESC', mengambil bisvit selimut di meja lalu memakannya.

"Aku hairanlah, kenapa orang nak judge minat aku, terutamanya muzik. Aku memang layan banyak lagu - English mostly, Indon, Malay, Hindi, Jepun, Korea. Tapi kalau dari segi minat, memang epic muzik sentiasa di telinga. Immediate Music, Two Steps From Hell, Audiomachine, E.S Posthumus, Blue Stahli, Celldweller, banyak lagi. Lagu metal pun aku layan, System of a Down, KORN, Nirvana. Aku tak pernah pun nak judge minat orang, sebab Allah ciptakan kita berbeza kan?" Rin memandang ke arah Adi, menghabiskan bisvit selimut sebelum duduk di sebelahnya.

"Well, manusia. Memang selalu nak cakap-cakap pasal yang dorang tak rasa sesuai di mata dorang." Adi sekadar mengiakan.

"Bukan aku layan lagu yang heavy, gila atau yang gila-gila. Bukan aku layan lagu kerohanian non-muslim, bukan aku layan lagu iluminati, bukan aku layan lagu atheist, bukan aku layan lagu yang tak bagus. Aku layan lagu yang aku rasa best jer pun. Entahlah. Aku boleh terima orang layan lagu Korea, tapi dorang pula mengata minat aku terhadap epic muzik ni sesuatu yang pelik dan mengarut." Rin berbaring di katil, Adi masih lagi jadi pendengar setia.

"It's their mindset Rin. Biasalah tu. People tak kenal sangat kita. Kalau tak kenal, maka dorang rasa apa yang kita minat lain daripada yang lain itu pelik. Jadi di situ dorang terus anggap kita ni pelik."

Rin mengangguk. Betul apa yang Adi kata. Minat benda pelik, terus dicop bukan-bukan. Tak payah pergi jauh, dia sendiri jadi contoh dan mangsa kepada perspektif orang lain. Perempuan, tapi gamer tahap giga macam lelaki - Dota 2, Assassin Creed, Battlefield, Medal of Honor - terus dicop bukan-bukan.

"Biarlah dorang Rin, kau jangan fikir sangat. Manusia memang macam tu, ada saja yang tak kena di mata dorang. Kita pun kadangkala buat begitu, jadi kena banyak muhasabah diri. Muzik is okay dalam Islam, as long kau tak lalai atau layan lagu yang buat kau jadi bukan-bukan." Adi cuba untuk menjernihkan kekusutan yang melanda Rin.

"Thanks Adi. Now aku rasa okay sikit. Memang sakit jugalah ada orang pertikaikan benda macam tu. Macamlah aku layan lagu sampai tak ingat akhirat."

"Sabar jerr. Dah. Jom kita dengar lagu aku pula."

Adi menyambungkan speaker Rin dengan handphonenya, ditekan-tekan keypad untuk mencari lagu.

"Hritik Roshan! Awww."

Ek Paal Ka Jeena berkumandang di bilik. Mereka berdua spontaneously menari ikut lagu.

"Buang tabiat ke!" teriak Ain yang memasuki bilik mereka. Rin dan Adi sekadar senyum kambing.

Last-last.. tiga-tiga juga menari.

Busy-ness Situation

"Sikit oo kan. Tiada senior, terus jadi sikit ni."

"Senang sikitlah, sebab sikit. Tidak ramai."

"Beginilah situasi nanti time Kejohanan Trek dan Balapan, don't expect yang mantap. Expect the worse."

Kedua-dua mereka mengangguk. Don't expect everything will be okay.

* * * * *

"Apa yang saya nak cakap, pengurusan untuk Cross Country kali ini smooth saja. Memang ada mistakes, biasalah. God saja yang perfect, tapi feedback from lecturers, semua berjalan dengan lancar. Lepas ni, we have one more event. The biggest event. Jadi, lepas ni, rehat, clear your mind, hari isnin baru fikir balik."

Kata-kata seorang lecturer.

Motivation.

* * * * *

"One more hectic week. You, I feel like I want to quit. I'm afraid I can't do my tasks very well."

"I believe you can do it, don't worry sangat awak."

Kata-kata seseorang, another motivation.

* * * * *

"Busy hari ni? Kita buat props (for drama assignment)."

"Okay jerr."

* * * * *

"Baguslah terisi dengan kesibukan, dapat elak buat maksiat."

"Inilah semester 5, memang padat, belum masuk praktikum."

Komen-komen seniors.

* * * * *

"Bila kita mau set up tempat tu?"

"Petang, pukul 4. Ramai-ramai."

"Ada sudah tali? Bendera bila kita buat?"

"Ada. Bendera malam kita buat, kain dah ada. Tali pun dah ada."

Perbincangan dengan rakan.

* * * * *

One more, one more event.

Busy-ness

Epic.

I like that word.

Why?

Epic is something that amazes you.

What?

Anything.

Well in this entry, there's no Bisvit Selimut.

I just want to write something.. about my life at IPG.

So far so good, I like to be busy. I like to involve in these events - though I feel like I don't help as much as I could.

Why I like busy? Most people dislike being busy.

Well, it helps me to forget the pain, sadness or whatever things that make me feel depressed, though sometimes I stress because of the busy-ness. Hehh.

Well, at least it is much better than whining something - what the hell that I don't know.

Actually I like this semester compare to last semester. Last semester I didn't active too much except for my weight loss.

This semester, it's double active - Track and Field, Cross Country, daily activities, well, triple. Haha.

But I like it, it's okay though, it's okay. Why? This is the time you will learn many things, knowledge, practically and even improving yourself.

But of course, it's one of the ways to forget what I felt that haunted me before, that killed me before, that made me lost myself before - I wish that I won't do the same thing anymore.

Of course, people will come and go. I think I just wasting too much time to someone that never appreciates me before.

But I should realize that not everyone will appreciate you, not everyone will care as much as you do. They may be your best friends, but you may not be their best friend.

So, why bother? That's why I'm involving myself to own this busy-ness (not business), alhamdulillah Allah gives me strength to cope with it.

Sometimes I feel like I want to quit, but after listening to epic songs, I realized that 'quit' is only for stopping from doing bad things or habits.

Someone asked me why I still have time for that person, for games, for everything though I still busy?

I don't know. Maybe because that's how I work. I'm not multitasking, just divide time to do things.

Of course not easy. Imagine, my life from the morning - Lectures, go to department to ask things, lectures, eat, rest for a while, involve in Track and Field activities, playing football, meeting and at night, I am just resting. Not that I'm boasting that I can cope with this, but I feel like there are someone who are very busy compare to me, but still they have time to do something that can release stress. Even Rasulullah - a busy man, leader, father, grandfather, da'ie, still have time to help his wives at home.

So, conclusion?

Enjoy your life!

Simple.

Epic Music, search at YouTube. I guarantee you will love it.
