Page 289: Rolling in the Muck is Not the Best Way of Getting Clean

In the room filled with things labeled as memento, it’s impossible not to remember moments. It’s inevitable not to reviewing what you've been through to be in the place you’re at right now. No matter how distorted memories can be – because feelings sometimes unwind the facts and turn it into something that are more edible for your heart – you can still get the glimpse of what have happened.

And it affects you, sometimes, in the oddest way that you could imagine. Although you have moved on, memories of strong emotion like sadness or guilt – especially guilt, sometimes revolt. When you've made mistakes, there are certain things that can’t be fixed and somehow, you’re responsible – although not fully – for things you achieved. But what else can you do except trying to grab the lesson for your own goodness?

As Aldous Huxley wrote in the prelude of Brave New Word,

Chronic remorse, as all the moralists are agreed, is a most undesirable sentiment. If you have behaved badly, repent, make what amends you can and address yourself to the task of behaving better next time. On no account brood over your wrongdoing. Rolling in the muck is not the best way of getting clean.

No, it’s not.
Note to self: it's not.

Page 288: Film London Microschool

I normally don't post work stuff on my blog, but this is a good program so i thought, "hey, why not?"

So..i've been working on this programme since a few months ago. This programme, Film London Microschool is a collaborative project between British Council Indonesia and Film London. The ambition for Microschool is to stimulate entrepreneurial filmmaking, and to support film-makers to develop a clear vision of the audience and market for their films. The British Council is commited to contributing to the exchange of expertise and best practice between Indonesia and UK. Film London’s Microschool responds to discussions with key professionals in the Indonesian film sectors to further support the continuous growth of the Indonesian film productions.

So this is some kind of scholarship, people!

Pardon me for putting to many "So"s.
