Last night (Thursday, 15 December 2011) I watched a play held in my campus. The event in which this play was available is known as English Nite 2011. The title of this play was My Name is Sinderella and I Hate My Stepsisters. Considering the name Sinderella, we can directly point to the story of Cinderella. They have the same pronunciation anyway :) . Indeed, the play I saw was adapted from Charles Perrault’s Cinderella.

I was really excited with the drama performance last night since everything looked well-prepared and also well-performed. The stage, the properties, the lightings, and the sounds were well-set. Furthermore, the facial expressiveness of each character, the way each character plays his/her voice’s intonation, and the gesture they made looked so awesome. Alhamdulillah, there was no regret I spent my time to watch it.

The concept of this new version of Cinderella (who became Sinderella) does deconstruct  the original Cinderella in some ways. As suggested by the title “…I Hate My Stepsisters”, it is inevitable that it is not like the Cinderella that we commonly heard. Sinderella, as the main character in the play, has qualities that are considered as bad by people such as wicked, materialism, and arrogant. Sinderella, even, kills her stepsister. On the other hand, the one who can please the prince is Sinderella’s stepsister. Even Sinderella is the one who begs for the prince’s love.

Well, it was such a brilliant deconstruction of the story! Let’s say this play is a feminist version of Cinderella. In this play, the main character is no longer a good girl, but continue reading…..

Senin (5 Desember 2011), saya dan teman-teman saya membagi tugas untuk mengerjakan homework mata kuliah Semiotics. karena pada saat itu masih siang dan mata kuliah berikutnya baru jam 5 sore, we decided to spend some of our time. Kebetulan voucher gratisan J.Co yang baru saya dapatkan masih belum terpakai, jadi kami memutuskan ke J.Co. Disana kita beli selusin donat karena kami bertiga belum makan siang. :D :D :D  Of course we paid it using the voucher thus it was free!!!

Karena tidak mungkin cuman makan saja tanpa minum, kami memutuskan untuk beli minuman disana juga :)

Sesudah membayar untuk donatnya, dan kami masih di kasir untuk memesan minuman. Di kasir kan ada gambar minuman apa saja yang ditawarkan disana, tapi tidak ada label harganya. Label harganya ada di atas, dan pada saat itu saya tidak mengenakan kacamata, jadi like I care lah. Kami bertiga memesan minuman yang berbeda. Saya coklat, Faul jeruk, Rika cappuccino. Keadaan yang ceria, tiba-tiba turned to flat, lonely empty place ketika mbak kasirnya tiba-tiba bilang continue reading…..

Sandal, entah kenapa, dianggap sebagai sesuatu yang tidak akademis :)

However, it is about my experience in previous months

Akhir-akhir ini cuaca di Surabaya sering berubah drastis. Tentu saja salah satunya adalah hujan, sepatu saya pun jadi basah dan saya pun juga tidak mau sepatu saya basah lagi. Lah wong mataharinya sekarang juga agak jarang bersinar gara-gara mendung. Jamuran la’an ngkok!!! Alhasil pada beberapa bulan terakhir saya lebih memilih menggunakan sandal clog saya. Modelnya yang bolong-bolong itu loh :D :D :D

Beberapa penduduk di rumah saya berkali-kali bertanya tentang penggunaan sandal itu akhir-akhir ini dan pertanyaan itu cukup intensif ;) .
Awakmu oleh ta nang kampus nggawe iku?” –> “Oleh
Kon kape nang kampus ta, kok nggawe sandal iku?” –> “Iyo, knopo? Wong gak popo kok”
Kon libur ta? Ngkok gak onok kuliah ta? Kok nggawe sandal ngono?” –> “Yo kuliah lo. Gak popo kok nggawe sandal, pokoke gak sandal jepit ae lo”
Oleh ta ambek dosenmu nggawe sandal ngono iku?” –> “Gak popo kok”

Lah wong saya loh bolak-balik ke kampus pake sandal begituan juga gak apa-apa, masuk perpus juga gak papa. Dan ini sudah continue reading…..
