why? because...

then, my question had been answered...

Should we give our money to beggar?

Have you ever give your money to beggar on the street? Do you believe if they're not lie? It's all up to you whether you give or no your money to beggar. Here is some of my opinion about that thing.

Nowadays, almost in every public place there are so many beggars. It is not a strange thing anymore. Even the beggars seems more and more each day. Sometime, their look is so miserable, so people will feel sympathy to them and give them money. More people who give money, more beggars will stay in every public place. That is what always happened. Giving money is one of philanthropy activity, but it will be bad if it is done to beggars. Giving money to beggar will not help them, not only making them lazy but also making it possible that the money would be given to wrong person. Then, it might result in increasing crime. 

In the first place, giving money to beggars will make them lazy. They are habitual to beg to people. They will not try to find another job for their better life. They think, just by begging, they can make a lot of money. They just stay in a public place and ask money to people who pass in front of them. How easy they got money. In some cases, there are some beggars who make begging as their job. What do you feel if beggars whom usually you give money have bigger income than yours? You must feel so regretful for giving them money. But, that what is happening now. Their income from begging is more than other people’s income who work in office. For example, in Jakarta, there is a beggar who comes from Madura. His name is Cahyo[1]. He can get money as much as two hundred thousand rupiah in a day. It means, in a month, he can get more or less six millions rupiah. That is of course not a little number. Whereas in Islam, earn money by begging, but still able to work is not allowed. Because it cause lazy and make beggars lazy to work even though they can. So that, if you give your money to beggars, you let them keep their laziness.

Second, giving money to beggars makes possible that the money would be given to wrong person. Nowadays, to differentiate which is real beggar or fake beggar is a difficult thing. Some beggars pretend to be very poor by wearing bad clothes and making their face, hair and hands as dirty as they can. Even there are beggars who make fake scar on their body or pretend to make their body stump to make people feel pity to them, so they can get more money. Some beggars also pretend to be blind, so people will think no more chance for them to take any job. Besides given to fake beggars, our money also may be given to beggars who spend their money for drugs. They spend all of their money for drugs because they addictive to it and for keeping themselves alive, they must buy drugs by more money. People who give money to them means let them continue their bad habit and harm themselves. Giving money to beggars is also making possible that the money would be given to person who contribute their money to crime. They may use the money for buy some alcohol then they do criminal thing under their consciousness.

The third effect from giving money to beggars is it will increase crime. Giving money to beggars will make a lot of deception. For example, beggars who pretend asking money for charity for orphans. They bring all of property such as pictures, proposal, or some letters to make people sure with what they have said. Giving money to beggars makes children exploitation increase. People will be more sympathetic to kid beggars than old beggars. Because of that, so many parents make their children become a beggar to earn more money. Sometimes, their baby also became their property to get more sympathy from people. So, people will give them more money. It is bad for their baby’s growing because their baby must sniff air pollution every single day. Moreover, nowadays so many babies are rented for begging like in Semarang[2]. Beggar who wants to bring baby for getting more money, just rent the baby from baby rent and pay the payment. Children violence also will increase. It happened because sometimes children, who do not want to beg like what their parents ask, get cruel traits from their parents. There is also children violence that caused by scramble area between fellow beggars. So indirectly, giving money to beggars can become a dangerous thing.

               In brief, giving money to people who down on their luck is not bad. But, you must think twice if you want to give your money to beggars. Because, by giving your money to beggars, you will not help them solve their poverty problem. It just makes them lazy to work. Even, begging can become a profession because of its big income. Your money also may be given to wrong person such as drugs addict, then it will increase crime. But all of that reason is not preclude for you to do this philanthropy activity. If you want to help beggars, you would better give them some useful things such as clothes, food, etc. If you want to give them money, you would better give it to a charity organization. So, by doing that you will not give contribution on their bad habits and help them to always try improving their life into better life.So, do you want to still give them money? It depends on you :)

Dari Hati

Haloooo ngomong-ngomong itu judulnya lebay juga ya, yaudah sih biarin. Lama banget ga posting, ga ada waktu (libur 2 bulan, ga ada waktu?? oh maaaan). Oke kembali ke topik. Jadi, hari ini tuh konser perdana aku (ciye). Hari ini ada konser angklung, bukan konser sih ya tampil biasa lah gitu di acaranya JMKI(Jaringan Mahasiswa Kesehatan Indonesia) di farmasi unpad. Ga sia-sia latihan selama 2 bulan, hasilnya bagus buat aku yang perdana main angklung hehe. Kenapa angklung? Entah, aku selalu tertarik sama alat musik bambu yang satu ini. Sayangnya waktu SMA ga ada ekskul angklung siih, yg ada juga cewenya malah disuruh jadi penarinya :|
Latihan 2 bulan itu ga kerasa. Dari pertama kali megang angklung, belajar cara-cara maininnya, sampe bisa dimainin bareng-bareng, semuanya berjalan begitu cepat. Sama sekali ga ada rasa bosan, jenuh, cape. Entah kenapa yang ada malah semangat terus kalo ada latihan. Ya mungkin memang begitulah kalo ngejalanin hal yang kita suka, semuanya dijalanin dari hati, ga ada paksaan, ga ada keraguan, semuanya dijalanin dengan sukacita.

2011 :')

Several hours left to 2012. As usual, I will write the kaleidoscopes during 2011 and a little bit of my resolution in 2012. So many sweet and bitter things, happy and sad moments passed during 2011. Perhaps this year is the most unexpected year. Maybe 2011 is my year. Because in this year I had to fight for my national exam and test to college.

In January 2011, I went to kebun Raya Cibodas, Bogor with my beloved schoolmates. That place is sooooo wonderful! If I could, I wanna stay there longer.  Unluckily, the weather wasn’t support us for doing some refreshing. But, it wasn’t inhibit us to do some happiness things and took many pictures haha

In March 2011, I followed a scholarship test in ITT Telkom for my alternative but I couldn’t pass it. I didn’t too mind it. Since the first time I felt pessimist because the test including my enemy: physics!

In March also, I went to my dream college with my bestfriend. Yap we had the same dream university but different major. We took many pictures in our own dream faculty and we dreamed how if this place could be our college, our place for study. Hmm dream, that’s just dream :’)

In April 2011, all of third grade senior high school students followed national exam. This is the last time I gathered with my schoolmates in formal time, completely. How I truly miss my senior high school’s time. If people said that senior high school’s time is the greatest time, the most beautiful time, the most wonderful time, that’s true! :’)

In May 2011, announcement national exam’s result! Can you guess? Yeah of course al of third grade student in my school passed it. But in May, there’s the bitterest thing I ever felt. The bitterest thing is when I didn’t pass snmptn undangan and any other test for pmdk. Yeah at that time I had to fight harder for getting my dream college. I also had to change my dream college which is ITB with another college in the same major. Hmm that’s the hardest thing to do, I think. Because that’s my dream since I was in junior high school.

Last day in May, I followed snmptn tulis. That’s the first day. I felt pessimist because the questions is out of my expectation. So many mistakes were found on my answer. Argh, that’s really a black day ever. Gosh!

in May also there's the last moment with my schoolmates, pawidya :')

in may, after try out me and my course friends took some photos

June 2011. snmptn, my birthday and the red letter day. In the first day, that’s the second day of snmptn tulis. I just could pray more at that time. 10^th is my birthday! \^^/ my prayer was come true in the last day of June :’)

Last day in June, the best moment I ever felt! The sweetest moment is when I passed snmptn tulis. You must believe that in every cloud has a silver lining! It happened to me. I failed in snmptn undangan but God has another best plan, I passed snmptn tulis in a college I want. My mother burst into tears at that time. Thanks God, finally I saw the best smiles from my parents :’)

July 2011, i got this from my parents as a snmptn present :D

August 2011, first time to college, mabim, and other exhausting activities. Pfffft. Wait waiiiit, thanks God I found them :’)

September-October 2011, the final report of practicum and mabim’s task made me busy and forgot the time. Imagine, three months felt like 1 week. Oh my God.. they really diverted my life o.0 but in this month, all of pharmacy student passed mabim, yaaaay! 

Ah ya, in this month also i joined as staff for PRAMA

November 2011, OOTRAD at unpad dipati ukur \^^/

December 2011, I followed final exam. It left panda’s eyes on me since I had to study until dawn. I wish I can get the best result from my first final exam in college. Aamiin >.<
and I met again my schoolmaaates












yaa must more grateful, this year better than 2010 :') hope next year will much better than this year

Kisah Seorang Kakek dan Dagangannya

Salah satu temanku posting mengenai hal ini di group facebook. Di kampusku tercinta, di Jatinangor, ada seorang kakek tua yang sering berjualan keliling kampus. Aku pun sering melihatnya di fakultasku. Kasihan memang, melihat seorang kakek yang sudah tua dan renta menyodorkan barang dagangannya ke mahasiswa di sana. Setiap ada kumpul angkatan, pasti ada kakek itu menawarkan barang dagangannya dengan suara yang pelan dan nyaris tak terdengar. Terkadang aku tak tega melihatnya berjualan keliling kampus yang super luas hemm inilah kerasnya hidup.

Sebuah Cerita Tentang Kuliah

Lama nih ga nulis, sibuk kuliah dan tugas, belum lagi waktu pas masa-masa ospek dulu *derita mahasiswa tingkat awal*
setelah kurang lebih 5 bulan menggeluti carut marut kehidupan kampus, aku merasa semuanya jauh sangat berbeda dengan kehidupan putih-abu. salah, jika anda mengira kuliah itu sesantai yang ditayangkan di ftv-ftv stasiun tv swasta. bisa haha-hihi kapan aja, bisa pulang kapan aja, bisa nongkrong kapan aja, banyak waktu kosong dan sebagainya. *kalau jadwal kuliah nyantei apa engga sih itu gimana fakultasnya*. Berhubung aku berada di fakultas yang tingkat kesibukan dan kepadatan jadwalnya tinggi jadi ya ga ngerasain hal itu.

Kuliah. hm kuliah..

ekspektasinya sih ya itu tadi yg kaya di ftv-ftv. Tapi....

kuliah itu ga sempet belajar di rumah

kuliah itu ga sempet main

kuliah itu bikin jurnal terus

kuliah itu bikin lapak terus

kuliah itu bikin ngebatin terus

kuliah itu ga tidur

kuliah itu tidur waktu dosen nerangin

kuliah itu deg-degan takut sebelumnya ada kuis

kuliah itu utsnya suram

kuliah itu bikin jajan terus
kuliah itu ngecengin senior

Belum lagi waktu masuk ke masa-masa jenuh. Rasanya males ngerjain apa-apa. Bawaannya pengen tidur mulu lah, main lah, dsb. Dan.. yang lebih saya rasakan adalah individualisme. Setiap orang berlomba-lomba untuk mendapatkan apa yang mereka mau dengan caranya sendiri. Mau ada temen yang ketinggalan kek, apa kek, ini kek, itu kek, ga peduli yang penting tercapai. Tapi hal itu ga terlalu mencolok sih di fakultas saya karena waktu mabim diajarkan untuk peduli *walaupun hanya terasa pada masa itu*

Ada lagi, berjam-jam di lab menjadi hal yang biasa sekarang. Bahkan nanti mungkin ada yang nyampe seharian. Jadi, ini belum seberapa. Masih banyak hal yang lebih berat di depan sana yang mau tak mau harus dihadapi.

Tapi, di lain sisi aku punya pewarna baru yang bikin semangat waktu lagi males, bikin senyum waktu lagi sedih, dan siap membantu kalau ada kesulitan,

Agak aneh memang tulisan kali ini, tidak terstruktur. Ya ini efek nulis di tengah mengerjakan tugas #alibi. *lanjut mengerjakan tugas*
