gua masih inget suatu sore waktu gua masih sekitar umur 10-12 tahun, di tempat les inggris. gua sama temen2 duduk2 sambil minum fanta dingin yang dibeli di kantor mr.Rustam, principal tempat les inggris itu.
waktu itu gua dan temen2 ngobrol tentang tahun 2000, sebuah tahun yang di bayangan kita saat itu masih jauh bukan kepalang.. pada tahun 2000, gua bakal berumur 22 tahun, pikir gua saat itu, tua banget!!
tahun 2000 gua bakal jadi pilot pesawat tempur (anak laki-laki mana yang gak pernah berfantasi jadi pilot? :D) gua bakal nyetir ferrari merah yang melayang kayak landspeedernya star wars ke pangkalan pesawat tempur yang bisa take-off vertikal kayak harrier.
dalam bayangan gua saat itu, di tahun 2000 semua bangunan bakal berwarna putih dan chrom. gak ada jalan macet, mobil2 beterbangan dimana-mana. becak pun bakalan terbang.
sekarang tahun 2004, umur gua 26. mobil masih punya empat roda, gedung2 masih berwarna-warni, banyak juga yang lusuh, jalanan macet makin parah, dan gua ngga jadi pilot pesawat tempur. becak malah udah tamat riwayatnya di jakarta.
kalau disuruh milih, gua masih lebih suka tahun 2000 di pikiran gua waktu itu

"for once in my life"
(Michael Buble)
For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once unafraid
I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch
What my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Could make my dream come true
For once in my life
I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I've got someone
I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say
This is mine, you can't take it
As long as I've got love
I know I can make it
For once in my life
I've got someone who needs me
For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once unafraid
I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch
What my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Could make my dream come true
For once in my life
I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I've got someone
I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once I can say
This is mine, you can't take it
As long as I've got love
I know I can make it
For once in my life
I've got someone who needs me
"Thats All"
(Michael Buble)
I can only give you love that lasts forever,
And a promise to be near each time you call.
And the only heart I own
For you and you alone
That's all,
That's all...
I can only give you country walks in springtime
And a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall;
And a love whose burning light
Will warm the winter's night
That's all,
That's all.
There are those I am sure who have told you,
They would give you the world for a toy.
All I have are these arms to enfold you,
And a love even time can't destroy.
If you're wondering what I'm asking in return, dear,
You'll be glad to know that my demands are small.
Say it's me that you'll adore,
For now and evermore
That's all,
That's all.

Mr. Tan Tjiang Ay... one of the most celebrated indonesian architect... and deservedly so. karya-karya pak Tan ini selalu punya ciri khas dan konsistensi dan sepertinya nyaman ditinggali. gak heran banyak orang (termasuk saya) respek sama beliau dan karyanya. anyway... foto ini diambil minggu lalu di acara seminar yang diselenggarakan IAI yang membahas fenomena "minimalisme" pada karya arsitektur indonesia. gua sendiri ikut seminar tersebut karena diajak esti, tapi ternyata gua ngerasa banyak juga ikut seminar ini, paling gak, refreshing ilmu arsitektur yang pernah gua pelajari... bekal untuk ngedesain rumah gua nih.. hehehe...
