Aduh, serius deh, udah tiga tahun gue gak nulis sama sekali. Tiga tahun! Bisa bayangin? Rasanya kayak baru kemarin masih rajin buka HIVE tiap hari terus posting beberapa artikel membosankan. Tapi ternyata... poof... hilang begitu aja dari radar.
Oh man, seriously, it's been three whole years since I last wrote anything. Three years! Can you even imagine? It feels like just yesterday I was diligently logging into HIVE every day, posting a bunch of boring articles. But then... poof... I vanished completely from the radar.
Nah, hari ini—tepat tanggal 1 September 2025—gue coba balik lagi. Kayak comeback artis yang udah lama hiatus, tapi versi low budget dan tanpa teaser. Sekarang? Daripada nyesel terus, mending sekarang gue mulai lagi dari nol. Nggak usah muluk-muluk. Yang penting mulai. Dan kali ini, gue bawa sedikit perubahan. Dulu sih gue cuma nulis pakai bahasa Indonesia doang. Sekarang, gue putusin buat nambahin terjemahan bahasa Inggris juga. Kenapa? Biar ide-ide gue—meskipun mungkin sepele atau ngaco—bisa nyampe ke orang-orang di luar sana juga. Siapa tau ada yang baca, ketawa, terinspirasi, atau malah mikir, “Ini orang nulis buat nyari uang atau buat seneng-seneng sih?” Ya, terserah mereka lah.
Well, today—exactly September 1st, 2025—I'm giving it another shot. Kind of like a comeback artist after a long hiatus, but low-budget and without any teasers. Now? Instead of endlessly regretting my absence, I've decided to start fresh from zero. No grand ambitions. The important thing is just to begin. And this time, I'm bringing a small change. Back then, I only wrote in Indonesian. Now, I've decided to add English translations too. Why? So my ideas—however trivial or absurd they might be—can also reach people out there. Maybe someone will read them, laugh, get inspired, or even wonder, "Is this person writing for money or just for fun?" Well, that's up to them.
Nah, pas lagi mikir soal bahasa, tiba-tiba gue inget kejadian bulan lalu yang sempat heboh: film Merah Putih: One For All. Judulnya nasionalis banget, tapi kok pake bahasa Inggris di belakangnya? Banyak yang protes, katanya “Film nasionalis kok judulnya pake bahasa asing?” Tapi pas ditanya ke produsernya, eh dia malah bilang, “Bahasa Inggris itu bukan bahasa asing.”
While thinking about language, I suddenly remembered that viral incident last month about the movie Merah Putih: One For All. The title sounds super nationalistic, but why does it have English at the end? Many people complained, saying, "A nationalistic film, yet the title uses a foreign language?" But when asked, the producer casually replied, "English isn't a foreign language."
Gue langsung ketawa sendiri denger jawabannya. Wait, what? Tapi jujur, secara logika... dia juga punya alasan. Bahasa Inggris emang udah jadi semacam bahasa global. Di mana-mana dipake. Jadi ya, kalau kata dia “bukan bahasa asing”, mungkin maksudnya bukan “asing” dalam arti gak relevan lagi. Dan karena menurut produser film aja bahasa Inggris bukan bahasa asing, gue pun akhirnya mantapin hati buat cantumin terjemahan Inggris di tiap postingan gue ke depannya. Biar konsisten. Biar kalau ada yang baca dari luar negeri, bisa ngerti juga.
I burst out laughing when I heard that. Wait, what? But honestly, logically speaking... he kind of has a point. English has indeed become a sort of global language, used everywhere. So when he says it's "not foreign," maybe he means it's no longer irrelevant or alien. And if even a film producer claims English isn't a foreign language, then I've finally got the confidence to consistently include English translations in all my future posts. That way, readers from abroad can understand too.
Oh iya, gue sempat cek juga aset-aset gue di HIVE. Ternyata, kekuatan HIVE-nya masih minim banget. Kaya baterai 1% yang hampir mati. Tapi gue nggak mau nyerah. Gue putusin mulai sekarang, setiap tulisan yang gue post, gue jadikan alat buat nge-boost kekuatan HIVE. Target gue: tiap tulisan bisa nambah 100% kekuatan. Ya, ambisius sih. Tapi kan boleh bermimpi? Semoga aja ini bisa bikin gue cepat bangkit lagi di dunia HIVE.
By the way, I also checked my assets on HIVE. Turns out, my HIVE Power is super low—like a 1% battery about to die. But I'm not giving up. From now on, I’ve decided to use every piece I write as a tool to boost my HIVE Power. My goal? Each post should increase my power by 100%. Yeah, it's ambitious. But hey, isn't it okay to dream? Hopefully, this will help me bounce back quickly in the HIVE world.
Sekian dulu curhatan gue kali ini. Maaf ya kalau tulisannya masih belepotan, kaya orang baru belajar ngetik. Iya, soalnya emang baru mulai nulis lagi setelah tiga tahun hiatus. Nanti gue juga bakal pake mesin penerjemah buat versi Inggrisnya, soalnya kemampuan bahasa Inggris gue masih tahap “belajar pelan-pelan sambil nonton Netflix pakai subtitle”.Tapi ya, nikmati aja. Toh, nulis itu juga soal proses. Bukan soal sempurna atau nggak. Jadi, sampai ketemu di postingan berikutnya. Semoga gue masih rajin. Semoga kalian masih mau baca. Dan semoga HIVE-ku cepat kuat lagi.
That's all for my little rant this time. Sorry if this post still feels messy, like someone just learning to type. Well, that's because I literally just started writing again after a three-year break. I’ll probably use a translation tool for the English version too, since my English skills are still at the "slowly learning while watching Netflix with subtitles" stage. But hey, enjoy it anyway. After all, writing is about the process, not about being perfect.So, see you in the next post. Hopefully, I'll stay consistent. Hopefully, you'll still want to read. And hopefully, my HIVE Power recovers fast.
