[ EVENT ] : "2016 READING CHALLENGE"

Goodbye 2015 and Welcome 2016 !!

Setahun berlalu dan bagi teman-teman yang mendapati diriku turut ‘hiatus’ dalam kancah pertarungan atau event-event yang bertebaran di sana-sini, well – jujur perlu kulakukan demi mengembalikan ‘mood’ untuk bisa enjoy dalam ‘membaca buku’ ...

Dan hasilnya cukup terasa, karena tanpa beban ternyata bisa juga kulakukan upaya ‘babat-timbunan’ dalam rangka beres-beres lemari. Beberapa kenalan menanyakan, mengapa lama sekali diriku membutuhkan waktu untuk sekedar ‘beres-beres isi lemari’ – nah, ini sesuatu yang agak memalukan untuk dijelaskan.

Singkat cerita, diriku telah melakukan yang disebut ‘beli sedikit tapi rutin’ semenjak masa kuliah hingga bekerja. Karena (dulu) pekerjaanku banyak travelling antar kota dan pulau, alhasil sebagian besar waktu senggang yang biasa digunakan jalan-jalan keliling, buntutnya pasti belanja di tobuk setempat.

Jadi sudah berapa banyak timbunanku, errr – jumlah aslinya tidak bisa kuhitung, tapi dari daftar yang sudah kubaca di GR, itu masih belum seperempat dari yang keseluruhan yang belum kubaca #duh #tutupmukamerahpadam.

Karena itu untuk tahun 2016 ini, diriku (memberanikan diri) mulai lagi menentukan target agar bisa membantu pemantauan timbunan serta menjaga agar tidak tergoda untuk menambah timbunan baru sebelum ada timbunan lama yang diselesaikan.

Beberapa event RC 2016 juga telah bertebaran semenjak bulan lalu, dan setelah melihat dan menyeleksi mayoritas timbunan yang belum sempat terjamah, akhirnya inilah beberapa tantangan yang akan kulakukan selama setahun ke depan – semoga bisa tercapai dan benar-benar mengurangi timbunanku (^_^)

Again, I’m feeling awful by neglecting my classic project for over a year (only reading 4 books in 2015), so now I’m eager to catch-up my pace within this event, althought is not quite a reading challenge, still this event gave me another goals for personal reading project. Are you interesting to joining with me ?

That’s it \(^0^)/ so many this year hahahaha, hopefully I will finished all of them by the end of this year #fingercrossed
