Festival Puisi Internasional


Festival Puisi Internasional
Karya sastra adalah salah satu prodak dari kreatifitas manusia yang sangatlah patut dihargai. Butuh ide-ide cemerlang, perasaan, dan kreativitas yang tinggi untuk bisa menciptakan suatu karya yang disebut dengan karya sastra tersebut. Salah satu karya sastra yang begitu indah, penuh makna, dan patut untuk dilestarikan adalah puisi. Dengan puisi semua orang bisa menyalurkan berbagai macam aspirasi  baik tentang perasaan pribadi, keadaan social, politik, agama dsb dan tentunya dengan cara yang indah karna puisi itu dihasikan dengan adanya kreativitas dan perasaan. Oleh karena itu UIN Maliki Malang mengadakan  sebuah acara festival puisi internasional yang bertemakan “What’s Poetry?”   yang diselenggarakan pada tanggal 7 april 2012 sampai dengan 9 april 2012 sebagai tanda apresiasi terhadap karya-karya sastra khususnya disini adalah puisi. Dalam acara tersebut dihadirkan 28 penyair yang datang dari dalam maupun luar negeri yang mana masing-masing penyair memiliki keunikan tersendiri.
Acara pembukaan festival puisi internasional yang berlangsung pada sabtu malam tanggal 7 April 2012 tersebut bisa di bilang sangatlah luar biasa bahkan sampai ada salah satu dari poet luar negri yang mengatakan bahwasannya Pembukaan Festifal Puisi Internasional pada hari sabtu malam tersebut bisa menjadi pelajaran buat Negara-negara lain, yang mana pembukaan festifal dengan penyambutan-penyambutan yang begitu hebat tersebut bisa menunjukkan rasa hormat dan menghargai para undangan atau tamu-tamu yang hadir dimalam tersebut baik orang dalam negeri maupun orang-orang dari manca negara.
Acara pembukaan yang memukau tersebut dimulai dengan penyambutan para tamu dan juga penyair-penyair dengan nyanyian islami yang mana sebagai suatu identitas karena tempat berlangsungnya festival tersebut adalah di sebuah Universitas Islam. Kemudian acara dipermeriah dengan adanya tarian tradisional malangan yaitu “tari topeng”. Dan saya kira penyambutan seperti ini sangatlah bagus karna disini “orang Indonesia” sebagai tuan rumah bisa menampilkan kebudayaannya yang sangatlah unik dan indah kepada orang-orang manca Negara khususnya.
Yang semakin membuat acara malam hari itu begitu memukau yaitu suasana tradisional yang begitu kental yang ditunjukkan. Para panitia maupun tamu atau partisipan yang hadir tak terkecuali para penyair luar negeripun terlihat antusias dan terlihat menarik dengan pakaian batik yang mereka kenakan. Alunan music tradisional yang dilantunkan disela-sela acara pun menambah indah suasana. Ditambah dengan tempat acara yang dipoles dengan sedemikian kreatif bisa menambah kemewahan acara festival tersebut. Tak ketinggalan juga ada satu pemutaran film documenter yang berkaitan dengan puisi tersebut yang partisipannya adalah rector dan Mahasiswa UIN Malang.
Yang paling membuat saya tertarik adalah pada saat pembacaan puisi oleh para penyair. Saya bisa melihat bahwa setiap penyair memiliki gaya yang berbeda-beda dalam hal pemilihan diksi atau gaya bahasa dalam puisi mereka dan cara pembacaannyapun sangatlah bermacam-macam. Dan bisa dikatakan bahwa “every poets has their own ways in creating and performing their own poems”.
Secara ringkas bisa disimpulkan bahwasannya acara festifal puisi semacam ini sangatlah menarik untuk diadakan. Apalagi dengan menghadirkan beberapa poets (penyair) dari berbagai macam Negara didunia yang mana akan semakin memperkaya ilmu dan pemahaman tentang puisi. Bisa melihat berbagai macam puisi dan berbagai macam pembacaannya dari setiap penyair yang begitu unik bisa memberikan gambaran bahwasannya puisi adalah hasil dari suatu kreativitas yang begitu menarik dan indah.

How to be a good writer


How to be a good writer
Becoming a good writer is a choice. Many people think that be a good writer is a natural gift, so sometimes they feel that why they have to learn about writing. Even though they learn much about writing, they will not able to be a good writer. It is the worst thought. This opinion make someone ovoid writing and will never be a good writer. Becoming a good writer is a skill that can be learned and everyone can do it, but of course need to take much time and practice.
Read a lot is the main way to be a good writer. The more knowledge that you get from your reading will help you to get some inspiration and wishes to write well. Sometimes when we are writing we get difficulty of what we want to write or how to begin or end a paragraph, but with reading a lot we will accustom to find many kind of paragraphs and it can be our inspiration to write.
Regular writing practice will make you a better writer. You can sharpen your writing skill by practice writing everyday. If you do it regularly, you will get your confidence in writing. Try to write from a very little thing that you can do like writing diary. You can write everything in your diary. Maybe when you sad, happy, falling in love or tell about what is interesting thing or experience that you get everyday. Even though there will no one who read your writing, but you can feel how nice writing is. If you have accustomed to write a diary you may want to continue it with writing a short story, article and so on because you have begin to love writing.
Always to be sensitive with everything happen around you. It can be your inspiration to write. Sometimes many people can’t write because they don’t have any topics or inspirations that can make them write. So besides reading, knowing the condition around us will very help us to write.
Share your writing with other people so that you can get your feedback. It is one of the best ways for you to hone you writing skill. Ask someone to read your writing and give them chance to criticize, give opinion or correction of your writing.
            Don’t be shy or hesitate to show everyone your writing product. Let them know and enjoy that. Don’t worry if you make some mistakes in your writing because if you make mistakes you will learn from it and try to be better.
If you have got your confident in writing, you can start to publish your writing product. You can try from small media publisher such as in the wall of your room, in a wall magazine or in the internet. From this small media you will come to the next bigger media such as publish your writing to the magazine, newspaper until to a book publisher. Even though that is not as easy as invert our palm of hand, but we have to try.
In my last words I say, never think that writing is a gift that can not be learned. Becoming a good writer is the result of much learns, practice and hard work. This fact should encourage you. It means everyone can be a good writer.

I Want My Girl Back!
@Zaky

Hallo Mr…
My girl and I have been in a relationship since two years ago. When I had proposed her i assured that I would definitely understand her without she has to ask.
But the reality, I am not able to understand her at all.
And now I have a real terrible problem and it’s very difficult to be explained,I often have a quarrelI with her.i have tried to ask  for forgiveness I fell on her knees and begged her to forgive me… But she want me to go far away from her life. She is very angry with me.
I know that’s really hurt her a lot, even more I can imagine. She feel than I’m very guilty and she cannot accept me, as her boyfriend. It seems like nothing is left in our relationship.
I love her madly and want her back. Even she loves me very much but that guilt feeling is making her avoid me.. she said if I want she back,, She really wants me to do something by which we can get back our relationship.
Please help me out. Please tell me what to do.

@Mr.Solver
Always be calm even if the situation is difficult. Being calm enable you to see the problem from different side. You respond to it using your mind, not your emotions.
It is always good to resolve any problem patiently, than to start it with a quarrel. Love has no meaning if there is (quarrel) between two lovers every time.
Your girlfriend was very clear from the start. She wanted clear vision of understanding to live happy with you. If you began the quarrel every time, than it may be too much for hear your misunderstanding.
When you made it the last time and fell on your knees begging for forgiveness, you became very small in her vision and she felt sin because she made you small.
Girls in that culture want their men to be strong and they become proud of them because they are strong. That does not necessarily mean to be aggressive or to force her. However, strong characters are preferred in such relations.
Do not feel guilty, though. Now there is a reason here for you to start all over again. Ask her for a meeting to say goodbye if things are not OK between you both. This will alert her that you may disappear from her life and make her feel sorry, because she took the matter that way.
Choose a suitable time and a place that reminds her of good times with you. When she goes there, she will feel better and begins to realize that, you have a new look and feel about what had happened.

@Fanesa

      I have a problem and need your solution. I love a man and found that my friend loves him too... But I know that  the man loves me very much and so do me. But my friend don’t know about that. The man always show his care to my friend, but I know he just want to know more about me from her. And sometime I also want to know more about that man from my friend but I never say that I love him, I said to my friend that I just want to know he is a kind person for her or not. But know I’am very confuse the man have said love to me, But I don’t want make my friend sad if I accept his love, Give me a solution please….??

@Mr.Solver
    
     I also ever had the same problem with you when I was in High School, and I also confused in that time. I think the solution is you must prefer your friendship than your love story whatever it will make you hurt, but for the first time you must tell to your best friend that you and her friend loving the same person. And discuss about it, better if both of you stay away from that man or both of you say to that man that you want not your friendship broken so that man will understand you. Because friendship is number, one we can live without boyfriend but we can’t live without friend.
     But if that man force you to accept his love and you accept that and it make your best friend hurt. I can call you a traitor that make your best friend hurt and angry with you.
If you want to share and need a solution for your problem, just send a message and your problem to 08565556665
