Peranan Pendamping Peacekeepers
Well, edisi yang satu ini kalau mau diurai mungkin baru akan habis 4 hari 5 malam, kok nanggung?. Kenapa nggak sekalian aja 7 hari 7 malam?. Jangan dong.. nanti nggak tidur lantas hari Senin-nya nggak bisa bangun untuk kerja. Anyhow, merujuk judul artikel kali ini, saya ingin mengulas sedikit akan peranan sang pendamping. Biasanya jarang dalam artikel ini dan sajian bacaan di warung sebelah saya mengulas perihal si Idung Pesek ini. Ya, “Idung Pesek” itulah sebutan romantis sang pendamping saya. Mungkin bagi rekans yang selama ini sempat mengikuti rentetan panjang sajian cerita di warung sebelah akan faham seperti apa wujud, kelakar dan personality traits si pendamping peacekeepers ini.
