Dan berita lainnya salah satu kakaknya temen gue yang kerja di phuket dan kebetulan lagi liburan ke Krabi, ternyata terseret ombak di krabi, untung badannya cuma terhempas ke pohon, kalo batu karang..kebayang nggak sih? Jadi sekarang ceritanya kakaknya badannya biru lebam dan sakit2 di sekujur tubuhnya....

Gempa Bumi

Tadi pagi gue dikejutkan dengan berita gempa bumi yang terjadi di Aceh bagian utara itu. Dampaknya luas sekali, sampe ke Penang, Phuket, Bangladesh, India dan juga Srilanka. bener2 dahsyat itu gempa. Gue sampe sekarang masih gak abis pikir kok bisa dampaknya jauh buanget gitu ya....
Gue turut berduka tentunya dengan adanya gempa yang dahsyat itu, begitu tadi denger beritanya aja, gue langsung kebayang turis2 di Phuket, apalagi kalo ke sono kan wajib judulnya tuh buat island hopping, dan kapalnya kan kadang2 keciiiillll buanget.
Dah gitu kan sekarang lagi musim liburan, dan Phuket kan merupakan salah satu hot destinationnnya buat orang dari Singapore liburan...duhh serem banget sihhhh...
Tapi sih dari dulu bokap gue dah wanti2 ama gue bahwa kalo dari bulan september sampe april jangan deh pergi ke daerah2 yang judulnya laut2an kayak gitu, dan gue sih nurut2 aja so far...padahal kemaren baru kepikiran new year mau nge-cruise sama star cruise, eh tapi ternyata petuah bokap itu sakti bener, emang sih kalo bulan2 segitu kalo elo2 perhatiin laut kan biasanya agak2 choppy tuh ombaknye...
Duh...sedih.....tapi aniwe kata berita barusan 9.30 pm katanya di Singapore juga berasa, tapi atuh gue nggak berasa tuuu..padahal gue di clementi, duh gue ndak berperasaaan kali ye?

Pergeseran Nilai

Akhir2 ini, gue banyak nerima undangan lewat email, tepatnya itu undangan diseken dan disebar even melalui mail list, bukannya bener2 ditujukan kepada gue. Dan karena gue ada di s'pore yah ndak gitu naruh perhatian lah...palingan nelpon temen yang di jakarta, terus nitip ang pau lah ya.....kalo emang temen deket. Kebanyakan sih gue antepin ajeh itu undangan, gue cuma klik, baca, dalam hati ooh si anu merit toh...kalo ada photonya yah bisa mengagumi, eh laen loh ya dia kalo didandani...gitu doank...dan dalam hati sih kadang mikir ini orang kayanye nggak niat ngundang kali ya..cuma mau memberitakan kabar baik buat teme2 yang nyantol di luar negeri.
Tapi ternyata sekarang gue baru menyadari bahwa itu adalah hal yang lumrah untuk mengundang orang. Kali gue masih tergolong dalam species homo sapiens, yang masih mikir musti cetak undangan, trusan kirim ke alamat masing2 lewat kurir ato kantor pos.
Gue nggak menyadari bahwa nilai itu telah berubah sebegitu drastisnya....duh....padahal kalo nyetak undangan perasaan ada batas minimumnye deh.....dan kalo gitu juga, ngapain juga undangan dicetak kalo nggak untuk dikirim?

Capek Ati

Dohh belakangan ini gue kerjanya capek hati melulu, dan bawaannya mo marah terusss....mana kerjaan berjibun kayanya kok nggak selese2.
Trusan punya pembantu kayaknya kok nggak berasa kebantu...kali gue terlalu cincai....perasaan pembantu gue idupnye lebih asik dari gue....gue setengah mati bikin kue ato masak, die tinggal menikmati hasilnya...tapi ya salah gue juga sih...gue orangnye terlalu perfeksionis, kalo lagi bikin2 gue nggak suka kalo orang ikut campur tangan....tapi terus terang yah gue juga nggak percaya ama pembantu gue untuk ngelepas dia masak sendiri.
Lah wong gue pernah bikin soto, trusan dia bilang,"Loh mam, ngapain repot2 kan tinggal beli bumbu indofood trusan masukin daging." Nah loh kaget kaga lo kalo denger pembantu ngomong begitu *sigh*
Gue ngetes kalo bikin ayam goreng bumbunya apa, lah kok dia cuma bilang asam, garam dan micin, bikin gue tambah mabok lagi......
Trusan....yang bikin gue gondok adalah...sekarang CC bahasa Indonesianya makin yahud...gara2 si nuniek nggak mau ngomong inggris, tiap kali CC ngomong inggris, dia belaga nggak ngerti, padahal gue yakin bin yakun, bahwa dia ngerti apa yang CC ngomongin.
Tadi gue lagi ngomongin pembantu yang di tetangga gue itu udah balik for good ke Indo, gue bilang what a great loss lah si majikannya...CC juga mengiyakan omongan gue...CC bilang pembantu bawah itu hardworking dan pinter, sedangkan pembantu kita pinter tapi belaga dogol....walah...dan gue orangnye assertivenessnya rendah lagi, yah udah deh untung kalo punya majikan kaya gue....makin makan ati ajehhhhhh....

Apesss

Hari ini ceritanya gue lagi apes berat, dari pagi gue mau cancel kelas scrapbooking, ndak dikasih, terusan beli tiket buat nonton Bridget Jones Diary, udah yakin2 sampe Plaza Singapura jam 1 lewat dikit, taunya itu midnite show *blush*
Trusan acara belanja belanji ternyata barang yang gue beli banyak yang setelah gue beli ternyata ada di tempat laen dengan harga yang lebih murah *gondok*, beberapa di antaranya even though merknya kaga sama, tapi kan ini nggak penting2 amat, dan bukan buat gue pula *licix*
Satu yang gue pelajari ada Mustafa Center sekarang sudah tidak murah lagi, dari sekitar 1.5 tahun yang lalu benernya dah tau sih, cuma gue kan masih iseng, gara2nya mau nyari disposable camera, tapi gue bingunk kok tetep ajeh orang berbondong2 pergi ke sono *bingunk*
Pas siank2 gue ke Scotts Shopping centre eh ada string concert, pas dia orang lagi bingung mau maen ape, gue bilang ama CC," can I request Canon in D to them?" Eh tau2 dia orang maennin tuh lagu....aduhhhh gue jadi pengen nangisss....entah kenapa dari dulu gue waktu masih di Sydney suka nangkring di Pitt St Mall, depannye Grace Bros dengerin string quartet yang suka maenin tuh lagu, kalo pas winter duhhh rasanya pengen nangisssss........
Trusan gue tadi siank waktu lagi jalan di depan Mariott hotel, ngeliat orang lagi pake video kamera model yang semi prof punya, dan gue bilang ama CC, ehhh kita masuk tipi...gue pikir itu turis ato wartawan asing...eh ternyata pas malem gue dapet sms dari temen gue bilang bahwa kita muncul di telepisi *blush* Duhhhh ternyata itu wartawan channel i euy.....sayah jadi malu...temen gue bilang gini,"Eh I've already known you since you haven't been famous, ok? So don't forget me!" kuakakakkakakakak...gelo bener tuh orang...
Sekarang seperti biasa masih berkutat dengan cookies gue....padahal badan gue dah mo rontok, tapi CC bilang,"Everytime I open the fridge, I feel something is missing..." Dohhh nyindirrr euy....dalem kulkas gue banyak stock buat bikin cookies.....duh kasian deh jadinye ye sekarang gue berkutat dengan cookies, mudah2an jadinye sip ye.....

Tidak Bisa Menyenangkan Semua

Suatu hari, seorang ayah dan anaknya membawa seekor keledai ke pasar. Dalam perjalanan, beberapa orang melihat mereka dan berkata, "Lihat orang-orang tolol itu, kenapa mereka tidak menunggangi saja keledai mereka?" Sang ayah mendengar cemooh ini dan menyuruh anaknya menunggang keledainya, sedangkan dia sendiri berjalan di samping.

Seorang wanita tua yang melihat pemandangan ini berkata, "Apa jadinya dunia ini? Anak itu enak-enakan menaiki keledai sementara ayahnya yang sudah tua disuruh berjalan kaki!" Mendengar itu, si anak langsung turun dan meminta ayahnya saja yang menunggang keledainya.

Selanjutnya mereka berpapasan dengan seorang wanita muda yang mengatakan, "Kenapa kalian berdua tidak naiki saja keledainya?" Mereka mengikuti nasihat wanita muda itu dan bersama-sama mereka menunggangi keledai mereka.

Tak berapa lama, sekelompok orang mengecam mereka, "Oh, betapa malangnya keledai itu! Dia harus mengangkut kedua orang itu sekaligus. Betapa kejamnya mereka!"

Ketika mendengar hal itu, ayah-anak itu sudah sangat jemu mendengar kritikan demi kritikan. Mereka memutuskan untuk turun dan menggendong keledai mereka saja untuk membungkam omongan orang-orang. Kejadian ini membuat orang-orang menertawakan mereka, "Lihat, manusia keledai menggendong keledai…"

Ketika Anda berusaha menyenangkan semua orang, pada akhirnya Anda tidak akan menyenangkan siapa pun, malahan bisa-bisa Anda hanya menyusahkan diri Anda sendiri. Sepanjang apa yang Anda perbuat tidak merugikan pihak lain dan didasarkan pada etika moral, tidak ada yang salah dengan Anda.

Tentu boleh-boleh saja Anda mendengarkan berbagai pendapat dan masukan, tetapi pada akhirnya, Anda harus mendengarkan suara hati Anda sendiri dan mengambil keputusan yang terbaik bagi diri Anda sendiri. Tak seorang pun yang mengetahui diri Anda lebih daripada diri Anda sendiri.

Be Happy!

Renungan ini saya peroleh dari email yang diforward2 oleh teman2 saya...
Saya merasakan bahwa renungan ini benar2 terjadi dalam kehidupan saya, saya selalu berusaha menyenangkan semua pihak, even to the extend I have to sacrifice my own feeling and happiness, tapi ternyata itu nggak bisa terwujud.
Hasil yang saya dapatkan adalah semua orang meminta lebih dari saya karena mereka merasa tidak puas, dan saya sendiri mengalami kelelahan rohani yang lebih parah to meet their demand, jadi saya sedang berusaha untuk merubah kebiasaan saya itu

Gaswat euy

Gaswat berat gue tambah ndut *hiks* Di masa2 yang semestinye gue ngurangin berat, eh berat gue malah nambah *sobs*
Semua ini adalah buah dari bertumpuknya kerjaan gue, sehingga gue nggak sempet berolahraga (ngemil buat gue adalah tabu, jadi gue walopun stress berat tetep ajeh nggak doyan ngemil...*sigh*), dan juga berjibunnya bisnis lunch dan invitation2 lainnya...
Sekarang gue mengerti kenapa Oom2 bisnismen itu bisa berkolestrol tinggi dan bahkan berpenyakit jantung, lah wong dari bisnis lunch yg terakhir yang gue jalani, waduh itu makanannye beneran berkolestrol tinggi (untungnye kolestrol gue masih rendah banget), bayangin ajah kita mesen Shanghai Hairy Crab (gue nggak gitu doyan sih, abis rasanya rich buanget), trusan ada apa yah Fish maw yang masih segar, dimasak dengan ceker bebek, walah yang itu juga kolestrolnye lumayan tinggi.
Dan yang namanye bisnis lunch di restoran chinese gituan kan biasanya diserve satu2 orang per piring, mana mungkin gue bisa skip, duh beneran....tatuttttttt.......hiks....

Kiasu-ism

Gara2 kelamaan tinggal di Singapore gue jadi ketularan orang asli *nyari alasan*
Udah beberapa minggu belakangan ini pompa bensin pelit ngasih diskon, cuma 5% doank. Nah kemaren jumat pas lewat pom bensin gue liat eh diskonnye 10%, dan menurut pengalaman terakhir gue males ngisi, eh taunye besoknye diskonnye jadi 5%, jadi gue buru2 maksa CC buat beli bensin, walopun bensinnye masih 1/2. Kiasu nggak sih gue? ernyata sampe hari ini diskonnye toh masih 10%. Astaga...gue ini....
Kiasu kedua nih...benernye sih mustine ini yang pertama, hari minggu yang lalu, gue dapet email dari Singapore Zoo bahwa Ben and Jerry (ice cream yang uenak buanget itu lohh) buka outlet di sono, dan hari minggu itu mereka bagi2 ice cream gratis buat orang2 yang dateng ke zoo. Nah gue nih kan nggak doyan ice cream, kecuali merk yang satu ini, so gue bilang ama CC dari hari Jumat, ntar minggu kita ke zoo yah...dan kebetulan bo-nyok gue juga ada di sini.
So hari minggu lalu gue ke zoo, walopun langit mendung, tengah jalan gue bilang pokoke ujan ato tidak, kita harus tetep ke zoo *kiasu abiez* Dan tengah jalan hujan deres, tapi kita tetep nekat...dan gue lagi bilang ama CC, kalo ternyata outletnye ada di dalem zoo gimana yahhhhh....atuh masa kita bayar masuk ke zoo cuma gara2 ice cream gratisan?
Tapi akal sehat gue jalan...mana mungkin sih mereka buka outlet di dalem zoonye atuh bisnis sense mereka kaga jalan donk....
Eh sesampenye di zoo, beneran akal sehat gue, outletnye di depan cink....so kita dapet ice cream gratis deh, gue malah bilang ama bonyok dan CC, kalo masih mau ngatri lagi gihhhhh...kuakakakkakak *ketawa licix*
Oh yah acara di zoo kemaren..lumayan lah...ndak over dress ndak juga under dress, anyway gara2 gue beli celana panjang hitam dan gue pendekin, dan dipasinnye sama sepatu hak tinggi yang runcing itu (gue pikir pasti kita disetirin pake boogie car sampe ke tempat resepsi deh), pas gue mau pake sepatu boots instead of hak tinggi itu, celananye kepanjangan...so mau ndak mau pake sepatu hak tinggi itu.....ternyata firasat buruk gue terbukti, emang sih kita disetirin sampe ke tempat, tapi ternyata kita harus jalan lumayan lagi, karena tempat resepsinye di atraksi "Elephant of Asia" Alhasil gue jalan dengan susah payah.....dan untungnye ada tempat duduk....dan bukan formal dinner, melainkan buffet, yipeeee.....
Sekarang gue lagi ngebake cookies, ini kayanye resepnye ada yang sakah, padahal ini resep gue ngikutin tumplek plek sama majalah loh...majalahnye bule sih....sebel dan gondok deh....biskuit gue kaga garink.....mau maraahhhhhhh....
buat semuanye met wiken

Menarik Napas

Perasaan makin hari kerjaan daku makin yahud buanyaknye *sobs* Sekarang even though kadang2 abis ketemuan client ato pas makan siank bisa nyuri2 waktu buat ke mall, hati gue juga dah nggak "tune in" buat belanja ato sekedar cuci mata *hix*
Ini badai ndak bakal reda sampe abis Chinese New Year deh, dan makin tahun kayanye kerjaan gue makin membludak *narik napas panjang*
Aniwe...bokap ama nyokap gue lagi di sini nih, , sejak kemaren malem sih. Tapi mereka ndak tinggal di tempat gue karena kamarnye dah di-occupy ama si nuniek, so mereka tinggal di tempat tantenye bokap gue. Tadi seharian dicuekin gara2nye gue sibuk kerja, dan dengan perasaan bersalah tadi gue beliin dinner buat mereka, dan akhirnya gue ajak drive thru liat2 lampu di orchar road sih...pan light up...oh ye gue dah sempet poto2an (maksude moto2 light upnye, bukan moto diri gue dengan background light up) sih beberapa minggu yg lalu cuma ndak sempet aplot *alasan*

Doh tambah stress deh gue...yang pasti yah tamunye pada naek mobil "CD" atuh...mana mungkin pula bisa smart casual....dah gue ndak punya gaun malam lagi (Agnes pasti ngakak2 baca-nye), bukannye ndak punya sih, cuma bingung ajeh masa ke zoo pake gaun malam *garuk2 kepala* even though ruangannye bakalan ber-ac..tapi kan lucu ajeh....
Walah emank susah jadi cewe....bingung nih gue pake baju ape...trusan duh males ajeh yah isinye orang2 gedean gitu...musti ngomong apaan yah ama mereka? Pusing beneran deh...ayo donk kasi ide...beneran deh gue kan orangnye informal banget....dosa ape ye sampe kena musti hadir ke acara ginian *ketok2 kepala*

Starbucks

Seeing my last posting I feel very pathetic, sad about my self. Actually If I don't feel like writing, better don't do so.
Okay now going into our topic fo today, Starbucks. For those who knows me well, I love coffee very much. I think I've mentioned in the previous posting before about my love of coffee. It's actually started from my final thesis in Trisakti, as I had to stay until very late at night, with reason that I couldn't get inspiration during the day *blush* then coffee become my best friend.
Continued with my stay in Sydney, I found that coffee, is becoming more than my best friend, moreover after I met Megumi (my Japanese flatmate), who taught me to drink coffee without sugar to enjoy the aroma and the taste of the coffee better.
Finally I joined Australian Starbuck as the first batch, where I was heavily trained about coffee, as the shop hadn't been ready to be opened. I don't know whether you'll still be trained as what i had in previous time when you joined Starbucks crew or not. But let me tell you those experiences are very precious. (eh tau2 banyak yg daftar starbucks lagi gara2 baca postingan gue *ge er*).
But now with all my depression and panick attack thingy, I can't take caffeine at all, so you can imagine how suffering I am now, from the coffee addict to a coffee clean sheet. As I believe if you wanna take coffee, then take real coffee lah...don't take decaf.
I've tried a few times before, as I thought my condition is getting better, but I got knocked out again because of coffee. The the doctor told me,'Why don't you try decaf?" Then I tried to buy decaf, but yet it's tasteless....
As times goes by, now I make a come back to Starbucks, but everytime, I always order the same thing "Decaf grande Ice Mocha with Low Fat Milk and No whipped cream" please. I don't know whether I pronounce it right, because there are certain convention how you pronounce the drink @ starbuck as a crew, I forgotten those already.
Then everytime i ordered my drink the person around me always give me strange look, which the crew sometime does the same, may be they though why don't I just ordered ice choc instead, my defence is, I need a coffee injection, but in order to camouflage the taste of decaf I use choc, and I'm lactose intolerrant, so I can only order low fat (I used to order soy bean milk instead when I was still in Sydney, but yet in here no soy milk available *sobs*).
Well, the moral of the story are:
1. There are many ways to Rome
2. No rattan, the root is still okay lah..(Tak ada rotan, akarpun jadi *grinned*)
3. If you went to Starbucks and heard a woman ordering "Decaf Ice Mocha with low fat milk and no whipped cream, please" with a "cute voice" that must be me......

Sunday

"Kopi Darat" was cancelled yesterday, as lots of people couldn't make it.
So we went to see "Shark Tale". It's quite good and funny but yet I still prefer "Finding Nemo".
Actually I had written such a long story, but yet suddenly it all gone without me saving it, so now I'm not in the mood of writing.

Morning @ Orchard Rd

Sorry for not updating my blog for so long, I know all of you miss me very much *ge er*
Anyway this morning I followed CC to the dentist, but I went shopping instead accompanying CC @ the dentist *senyum licix*
I did people watching also, then I realised the crowd are Tai-tai who goes shopping to kill time (bearti gue juga ya? kuakakkakka), salesmen who escape from work and don't know where to go which can be recognised from their face (belagu dan senga banget), and their clothing (rapih banget sangat business like deh, padahal cuma salesman).
Later in the day about lunch time, then i could find students who are released early from school, as now either they are ahving exams or had finished their exam, so it's time for joying around @ Orchard.
Annoyingly, in front of Isetan Scott, starting to have those time sharing sales who looking for their target. Quite surprise though they are still around *sigh*
Finally I got what I want...it's a Mango Privilege Card *blush* yeah actually I'm not a fan of Mango, as I prefer Zara than mango, but anyway I am just a normal card collector.....

Salah Semua

Dimulai dari hari Selasa atau Rabu gitu, gue sms-in temen2 gue buat ngumpul2 di rumah gue hari Sabtu kemaren...ndakk tau ape, yah maen sabet ajeh bilank acara buka puasa bersama..*blush* pan bulan puasa...ndak salah donk kalo gue bilank buka puasa, lagipula salah satu teman yang gue undang toh memang menjalankan ibadah puasa...so sah2 ajah donk...
Trusan gue tungguin kok ndak ada yg reply, gue sampe bingung, akhirnya lumayan lama, ada yg reply ke gue, dan nanya gue, sejak kapan gue puasa...nah loh....gue bilank yah..kan lagi bulan puasa so ndak salah donk kalo judule buka puasa barenk....dan orang itu menjawab tidak bisa (yang gue yakin bukannye tidak bisa tapi tidak mau....) ya sudah...itu udah membuat gue merasa terpukul banget....apalagi akhir2 ini gue lagi emotional banget.....Ya sudahlah....
Kedua ceritanye kan gue dapet undangan dari Mont Blanc, mereka ada photography exhibiton, dan gue diundang ke grand opening ceremony-nya, gue inget2 kayanye Jumat, eh pas Jumat, pulank kantor, dah kucel dan kusut, dan udah nggak niat banget, akhirnya diseret CC pulank ke rumah suruh dress up dan berdandan rapih2 ria....sampe di Paragon, gue lait dari depan kok sepi yah...pas gue deketin ke toko Mont Blanc-nya juga sepi banget....pas gue lait invitation cardnye..ya ampun...ternyata tgl 21..itu kan kamis....dohhhhh.....
Ketiga, masih seputar acara pesta, diundang Lancome ke Christmas Party-nye di Mandarin Orchard untuk hari Sabtu, dan hari itu jadwal gue hectic banget...pagi2 mau berburu Eu Yan Sang ceritanya ada pembukaan jadi mereka diskon besar2an di West Mall, Bukit Batok, dan ada dari jam 11-12 special price buat Ling Tze (obat deh pokonya...) diskon 50%, tapi ternyata pas sampe ke sono, katanya yg 50% musti antri di atas, gondok banget nggak sih...akhirnya kita puas dengan diskon 20% ajah yang ngantrinya ndak panjang2 amat...
Abis itu jam 11.45 ada lunch sama tamu bisnis yang lagi dateng ke Singapore, doh..ngebut2 si CC dari Bukit Batok ke Tanjong Pagar buat ngejemput itu tamu, dan makannya buru2 pula, kekenyangan lagi....terusan buru2 ngabur ke pestanya Lancome, parkiran amit2 penuhnya...sampe di pesta..kata receptionistnya," Sorry, the party is very overwhelming, so we let go your place to another person". Ya sudahlah gue sih nggak gondok2 amat..emank gue nggak gitu niat dateng kok....trus digirink ke ruang salenya....ndak ada yang menarik, so kita kabur....jalan2 bentar di orchard, abis itu musti pulank kan nyiapin buat acara buka puasa malemnya....
Sebelum pulang kita mampir di Haagen Daz Holland Village, mau beli ice cream cake, managernya belagu abis kayanya kuenya baru dateng, seenak jidat dia bilank," could you wait for 15 mins?" Padahal di depan dah mendung berat...mau marah nggak sih? akhirnye gue bilank,"I can't wait, just tell me what flavour do you have." Dia kaya mau2 nggak2 gitu, pengen ditabok nggak si? akhirnye gue tunjuk yag itu flavournye ape, setelah nujuk2 kira2 3 kali, dia sewot dia bilank," You want to choose the design or the flavour?" Wadoh ini ornag nggak sopan kok bisa jadi manager ya...gue lagi nggak niat ebrantem gue cuek ajah nanya2 lagi, ternyata ada yg desainnya lumayan bagus rasanya macadamia nut, yah udah gue pilih yang itu...dalam hati gue ntar lohhh hari senen gue complaint......
Waduh masaknya panik abis....menunya buanyak...nasi uduk, tempe kering, sate sapi manis, ayam goreng, sambel, soto ayam dan ayam gorenk mentega.....yang jadi tukang sate yah CC, pake bbq-an electric, tapi ternyata dia manggangnya terlalu napsu, sampe terlalu kerink...yah ndak apa2 deh....*pasrah*
Akhirnye total jendral yang dateng ada 7 orang toal ama gue, CC dan nunik...yang ngak dateng ada 3 orang, yah sudahlah...udah ndak emosional lagi kok....

Tired

Lotsa things to do, one after another.
The queue never stop, everything just come at the same time.
I wish I could split my body into 2 or 3 *arghhhhhhh*
My life feels like on the run, something is chasing after me, tired.....
But if got nothing to do, then I feel empty, so how?

Cooking

After seeing, all my blogger friends cooks this and that everyday, finally, I felt challenged to go back to my cooking soul.
I've been cooking for the past 2 days, starting with Ayam Cola that I got from Ika dan Astri Blog, but...I'm not trying to complaint about this recipe. Anyway I just confused with this recipe, as the result, I don't feel the Coke really served any purpose in here. So far that I know the chicken is cooked by Coke first before it process further, which Coke will help the chicken meat become more tender *dohhh engineering banget nggak sih? cooking ajeh pake logika...kuakakkaka...* But th result of course nice lah....only still can't understand...that's all...no hard feeling loh ya.....The recipe, really help to enrich my cooking skill kok :)
And today I cooked Beef Cah Tauco and Honey Chicken (like the one you find in Australian Chinese Resto...yummmm). Don't ask me about the recipe, coz usually I cook by feeling...you can verify with Agnes about this. I only can tell you the ingredients, but not for measurement :(
Anyway everytime I cook, even though I cheat from the recipe, I've never followed exactly to the recipe, I tend to modify with my own feeling *grinned*
But now I don't know what to cook for tomorrow, let's wait until tonite, what I'll have in my mind. Usually I prepare the thing at nite, and cook in the morning before work, then bring food to work, till CC said hey we look like student, bring our own food container kuakakkakakakka.....

Trust

Reading Astrid posting on Sunday 10 October 2004 about trust, and listening to this Audi's Song, "Dibalas Dengan Dusta" made me want to write down the issue about trust.
If you trust somebody with all your heart and soul, then that person misused the trust that had been given, then it should be very hurting. May be sometimes because of love, some of us might be able to give it another try, but for how many times?
This one is quite tacky and tricky to talk about this issue. But if we something that can bring us back to forgive someone for the things he/she had done is remembering about God's Love. God love is very unconditional at all. I can't imagine, if we felt hurt for the nasty things that people did to us for a few times, but yet God always welcome us anytime we want to get back to Him, He will never ever says "No" at all.
It's a hard things to do, but as a human being, we just tried our best to be God like, as we are created based on God's image.

Finally I'm going to cook....

After reading newspaper a few days ago about the chollera that was caused from eating hawker food in Bedok Area, I decided I want to avoid eating @ hawker. But now can not "tahan" (read:stand) anymore, so I decided to cook.
Finally my cooking soul come back. I wanna try Ayam Cola from Ika and Astri Blog, after reading Yuliana also tried this one *sigh* I always hear different version of Ayam Cola, but let me try our blogger recipe first.
But I don't feel quite satisfied with my cooking as I asked Nuniek to fry the chicken tomorrow morning first (you know lah...who not lazy to fry, huh?). Well I'm a perfectionist though, my best friend should know me best.

KFC

Today lunch menu was KFC, it was caused by yesterday inside the cinema, the girl who sat next to me was eating KFC during the movie (doohh jadi inget Agnes ama gue menyelundupkan chinese food ke George St cinema, dan pas kita buka, semua orang pada melotot ke kita *blush*).
KFC is having a new promotion, called Tom Yum Chicken, so out of curiousity, I wanna try it out, but nothing spectacular, not even taste Tom Yum *grinned* But now my stomach feel quite hot *gulp*
My head is quite pain *cekot cekot*, anybody wanna lend me your head? *nyengir*
I'm doing my work, accomponied by this song Dibalas Dengan Dusta by Audi, that I got it from my friend.
During the first few time, I don't really like it, as it's ummm quite how to say it in English,..."mendayu2" But when I tried to enjoy the lyric, then I find out it's quite interesting. The title means "Paid by Lies" and it's about somebody is always hurt by the same mistake over and over again, while she had given him full of love, but yet she doesn't regret, as she is the one that choose the guy....
Well, quite cheesy, huh? Hmmm but I always feel this is the fact that often happened in our daily life, well, I dunno about yours though....but I see quite some happenings around me....
I guess, it because love is blind?

Hmm...Sunday....

Today is the last day for Robby in Singapore, I woke up quite late, and didn't go to church, as we wanted to bring Robby lunch before his flight, and he had to have 3.45 pm flight.
So we picked him up from the hotel around 12 past, then we drove to East Coast Seafood Centre as per his request to have another crabs. But out of expectation, everything wwas closed for lunch *surprised* only Gold Coast restaurant opens for lunch *sigh* We have no choice but having lunch at Gold Coast, the food is not comparable with Jumbo or Red House of course, but anyway, better than nothing though.
After lunch we went to the airport, and what a surprise me and CC received another beatiful gift from Him, which made me very touch *sobs* After he left, I feel something missing from my heart, well...it's such a beautiful weeks that I had so far in here, with Robby presence here in Singapore....*hiks...srottttt*
Anyway remembering we still had 1 left over movie ticket from last time, and it will be expired on 19, so we decided to go for a show at Lido. We intended to see the New Police Story by Jackie Chan. Unfortunately it was almost full house, then the next things that came to my mind is Yesterday Once More, the movie by Andy Lau and Sammy Cheng. But after I got the ticket, suddenly I regretted why I didn't choose Wimbledon instead *sigh*, coz Yesterday Once More is still on Sneak Preview, so still have plenty of time to watch it.
Well, it's not too bad at all lah, quite refreshing, besides Sammy Cheng also so cute and adorable in that movie (anyway it's my first Sammy Cheng movie *blush*). But the finale a bit bland (baca:ngegantung).

Patch Test

The last 2 times I coloured my hair, I got irritation on my skin, so I decided to go to National Skin Centre to get it checked. The dostor said I had to do patch test, that supposed to be done on Tue, and I delayed untill thursday *blush*
So now, I have this tiny2 little plates, total 47 pieces contained of different chemical stuck to my back, due to be opened today by myself. The nurse told me if it itch I have to asked somebody to "sayang2" (read:pat2) my back. Unfortunately, it never itch during day, only in the middle of the nite, then itchy (mo nyuruh sape coba? bangunin si nunik masa?)
Then I'll see the doctor on Monday to see the result of which chemical I'm allergic to. Let's see
Last nite I went to Karaoke @Kbox, as Robby, my friend from oz, liek to sing very much, and we used to go karaoke together back in Sydney. I didn't realized that we'd been there for 3 hours (we book all you can sing session plus buffet dinner, but we only ate once, what a waste) till I ran out of voice. It was really crazy, I didn't care to lower or higher the note, I just sang and adjust my voice, which of course made my throat suffer so much. And I found out that probably it's true, the older you get, your voice will become lower, as I'm struggling to sing Tata Young, I Believe *sigh* Aging...*haizzzz*
Then now I'm furious with my blog template, I just change a few weeks, then now you can see the star on the top goes missing *arrrghhhh* Wait till I have time to change lay out again *cemberut*
Till then Happy week end everyone....

Taking MRT

After so long been absent from taking MRT, yesterday I did it *yay* (norak banget ndak sih? *blush*)
I went from Plaza Singapura to Tanjong Pagar. Started with I didn't bring my Ezlink card *sigh* coz I lent it to my Roby who's here for this week. Then I opened my wallet only found $50 note *sigh again*
For you who stay in Singapore, must know very well how "teruk" (read:troublesome, Singlish) is the position of the entrance gate, the station control and the ticket machine. So I saw there is an UOB atm machine there, I withdrew $10 then went to the ticket machine next to it, and found out that the machine does not accept $10 notes, then I had to walk all the way to station control and changed my money to smaller amount, then bought ticket, and proceed all the way to North South Line MRT *sigh*
On the escalator down, I met 2 girls that are inconsiderate enough to block my way, so I missed the train *gondok* and I had to wait for another 7 mins. I heard the alarm sounded, and just curious why it was so. Then I took a seat then sudddenly I felt the construction work underneath the station, and made me stunned, reminded me of Nicoll Highway. So I assume the alarm sound because of this construction work lah...
Then not long after that 1 auntie approach my sit, then said," The train had just left ah?"
"Ya loh..,"I answered.
Auntie,"Why the alarm keep on ringing ah?"
I said,"Probably because of the sontruction underneath."
Auntie,"Wah so scary leh..."
I answered,"I feel the same way to, and the train still long some more.."
Auntie,"Anyway it's fate lah.."
So I smiled smiled loh....
Finally the train came, I feel "shiok" (read=comfortable, Singlish) inside the train, I don't know why, I always have this feeling everytime I take MRT in Singapore, some kinda feeling touristy or something which I can't explain, seeing the students with the uniform reading The New Paper and plug the walkman in their ears....
I had to change train at Raffles Place interchange, when my MRT door opened, then the train on the other side left me out just like that *sebel*
I was just wondering why they can't make both the train arriving and leaving at the same time, so it's easier for people to change train, just like Bangkok BTS *think very hard*
Luckily I didn't need to wait so long to get the next train arriving. When eraching Tanjong Pagar I still had to figure out which exit should I take to go to Peck Seah St, lucky, the sign is very straight forward *phew*

The Story Continue

On Friday, Takashimaya having a redemption program, if you spent $500 in 5 combine receipt of the day or if you're a member you only need to spend $400 instead, then you can redeem this collectible Rose Chan.
Just happened that we had to donate door prize for 1 of our clients, so we went to buy Takashimaya voucher, then I realised that the customer service had already prepared lots of stacks of invoices for people buying the gift voucher. So now I know the trick, usually for this type of redemption, people will buy gift voucher, while they don't need to spend the money for unnecessary thing straight away, on the other hand, they could get this collectibles.
Before hand I used to think, may be just buy gucci or LV or Tiffany or something that is very expensive then it would be settled, but yet have another brilliant way to get there *amazed*
The redemption went quite fast I guessed as I was there about lunch time, and more than half (from 1000 available) had been redeemed.
On Sunday, I didn't go to church as I had a throbbing headache, but yet I had to have lunch with my friend, and continued with picking one of my friend arriving from Sydney on the way back to Malang. The flight arrived 30 minutes earlier than scheduled, so i was panicked as I arrived there about 10 minutes late from the original scheduled *sigh*
But finally I still found him browsing at DFS inside *phew* I was quite histerical seeing him, as he's my shopping buddy, karaoke buddy, cafe buddy, loittering buddy, photography buddy when I was in Sydney. Then I was more histerical when I saw his mineral water bottle, Mount Franklin, it made my heart throbbed (so dramatic huh?)
He gave me Cosmo magazines. wow Cosmo, a very rare goods that you could find here in Singapore. Even though the censorship law has already been loosened, but yet till now it's still a hard thing to get. So far I only found Cosmo UK Edition or Indian Edition, but yet nothing better compared with Australian edition though...
So that day we ended the nite by having dinner at East Coast Seafood Centre, Jumbo of course...
That nite when I arrived at home, I was reading the newspaper (basi banget ndak sih? dah malem baru baca koran *blush*) suddenly I felt my nose very funny, then I touched with my finger, oalah...blood mannn....blood....I became panicked of course, grabbed tissue, plugged to my nose, then asked CC to get for a wet tissue (by water of course) to be plugged to my nose...wow....I've never been like this when I was a kid, but after grow up so long then I got this type of thing *sigh*

Arrghh Monday

Due to my busy schedule, today posting is about my last week end activity *sok formal*

Friday, finally I dued to see the show that has been talk of the town for these pas few weeks, Mamma Mia @ Esplanade. The story line is based in small island in Greece, where a young lady is preparing for her marriage. As she was raised up by a single mother, so she is longing to see her real father on her wedding day. From her mother's diary, she found out that there are 3 candidates, so she invited those 3 men whose one of them might be her daddy.
The show is fantastic, and at the end of the show, the cast sing some of the ABBA hits song, and some of the audiences starting to stand up, clapped and dance....wow... it's really a fantastic performance.
Eventhough I regretted that I bought the circle 3 seats, and I just realized that it's not so comfortable, and felt a bit afraid of the height *kampung bener yak gue*
2 rows in front of my seats was totally empty, but quite surprising no body tried to move their seats *shocked* Remembering this is Singapore man....but anyway I was quite annoyed by the whole group that seated at the back of me, as they kept on talking at the beginning of the show, until the whole audience shhhhh them...aiyoh.....

Saturday, it was a very hectic day actually, started with working in the morning, and had to go to Biotherm X'mas party (which finally I skipped). Got scrapbooking class at 2.30pm (I tought it was 3 pm class, and I was having my lunch when they called me asking me where were me), then I rushed down to that class. It was a very exciting class, this time we learn how to do beads and photomat. Talking about beading...wow...it took a lots of effort and patience to do it, until one of my classmate said,"I have to put somebody photo that i love most in this paper.." Then I replied," As I love my self the most, so I would put my own photo in this paper..." *grinned* The class supposed to finished at 5.30, lots of them hadn't finished their work and just "ta pao" all the beads to do at home, while me and the other friend still stucked there until it finished....phew...what a determined people we are *proud*
Actually as I mentioned in my posting a few days ago, I have to attend the Tiger beer B'day Bash concert, after the class i felt very tired and decided not to go *sobs* So I have to find a nother crazy event to do, before I turn old....*sigh*
to be continued...

Real life drama

Last Tuesday I was at 1 of the well known beauty centre to do treatment, then in the middle of treatment suddenly 1 of the counter staff went into my room, then said," Hey flona, I would like to see your progress after the treatment so far, as you're due to treatment check also. So can you meet me after the treatment later?"
So I said,"Yes, I will..."
I was wondering, hmm it was quite funny because my record is not under this girl, but with another one, which is my checked also had to be done by the usual one...
After the treatment, I went to see this girl (Ms.J). Ms.J said," How's the treatment so far?"
I answered,"So far so good lah...okay. "
By The way where is Ms.W(the one that in charge of my program)?", I asked again
Ms.J,"Oh, she's on leave today."
Then she tried to offer me some more other treatment program, which I denied by saying that I needed to discuss with my parents first. but then she said,"If you could confirm now, I can arrange for the program to start next week."
I still insisted I had to discussed with my family...then she gave up...
Wow...what a real life drama is happening here, how could she try to back stabbed her own coleague by trying to persuade me to sign up something when Ms. W not around, so that she could earn the comission, that actually by right should be earned by ms. W...
Moral of the story are:
1. welcome to the real work life in Singapore mate!
2. Friends, don't try this @work, but if you didn't do this, then you'll "kena" this!

Showering Max

This morning during breakfast after I took a bath, suddenly CC said," You go later lah...let me go first..."
Luckily I hadn't changed my clothing yet. So I decided to bath Max...then I regret. Now I smell Max' shampoo....*blush* Don't know whether it could be covered with perfurmed or not *anxious*.
Max after shower photo will be uploaded soon...
Anyway..as I said for those blogger who stays in Singapore we would like to invite you for "Kopi Darat", as those who stays in Europe can meet each ohter, why can't we?
The time and place that I've thought of is:
* Saturday 17 Oct '04, dinner at Marche ---> easier to pay the bill
* Sunday 18 Oct '04 picnic at Botanical Garden ---> pot luck
You have to choose either one, but so far, Jo can't make it, so I make another choices:
*Saturday 22 Oct'04 or Sunday 23 Oct '04, place, the same as above...
Feel free to contact me at my email flona@yahoo.com lah ya.....

Monday, October 04, 2004

Oh no it's Monday

I would like to say thanks a zillion for those whose been concerned about my hand...It's okay now...Thanks a lot for your care....
Last week was a very busy week for me, and it will be increasing day by day up to Chinese New Year *arrrrrgggghhhhhhhhhhh*. I read from the newspaper we can redeem the tiger birthday bash party with 300 hereen points started on Friday 10 am @ hereen. I've never been to a concert like this before, I mean pop or rock concert lah...coz I don't like pay money for crazy crowds, but yet now I can get it for 300 hereen points which means I don't need to come out any money at all....but i was busy the whole day...
So on Saturday afternoon I was around Orchard, then I wanted to try my luck, not really put high hope on it, coz you know...thi kinda things in S'pore sure snapped out within minutes one lah...but to my surprise they still have the ticket *yayyyy*
But my points not enough *sobs* so I browsed HMV, and ate my dinner @ Marche, and finally got the ticket *yippeeee*
Frankly speaking I don't really looking forward to it untill now, even when I got my points enough, @ the customer service counter I still asked CC," are you sure we're going to redeem for this ticket?"
Well....this the things that I thought may be I should do before I'm getting old lah...even though I feel I'm old enough to be in the crowds *blush*
Anyway there will be Michael (still) learn(ing how) to rock, then Palmy, then some of Chinese singers, surely lotsa youngster (ah beng and ah lian), especially this ticket not for sale I believe. You have to redeeem with certain numbers of tiger beer's bottle caps...so let's see lah yah....
My first pop rock concert......

Cultural Erosion

This evening I did a bit of self assessment, then suddenly I realised how impolite I am now. Today we had guests from Malaysia, and he is much more older than me, CC calls him by his name, and usually I've never referred to his name when I was talking to him. But yet today as we brought them around, so I had to comment on the place that we were passing thru, and I also called him by name.....*blush*
Then now I feel very uneasy remembering about that tragedy...well...may be next time I will call him with Mr followed by his name lah..probably he will feel weird....
Remember my story last week about that cute doctor as well? Nah...that one also I didn't call him by doctor, but called his name instead, oh no...what kind of human I am? *sigh*

View from Menara Kuala Lumpur

Mine is Blue

HASH(0x88adc8c)
You're the color blue. You have the three c's in
life--you're cool, caring and confident.
Trustworthy and honest, people are naturally
attracted to you. You're unusually optimistic,
but that makes life all the better. You're an
imaginative person who loves sleeping and
dreaming. Hard-working and determined, you
excell in school. You're everybody's favorite,
and this is because you have this undefined
richness in your personality and attitude.
Mild-tempered and stable. Not to mention very
intelligent. Along with the fact that you're
conservative, you're worried about the
environment. So basically, you're a generous,
dependable and devoted--just the kind of person
everybody needs. Wouldn't it be great if
everybody in the world were like you?

What color are you? (Amazingly detailed & accurate--with pics!) brought to you by

What a day

Around mid day today, the rain started to fall, then I tried to open up my umbrella, but it couldn't be opened. I gave up, used my half open umbrella, when suddenly I realised my finger covered with a lot of blood, and the blood still bursting out from my finger.
I didn't feel pain at all during that time, then I ran to the car, to get a bottle of water to wash my hand, then quickly dried my hand with tissue. Then when I turn my head, I saw a splash of blood on the side of the door *sigh* I got stunned and terrified with the amount of blood that bursting through my finger....
Luckily not far away from that place there is a gas station, so we quickly drove away and bought the band aid, and forgot to buy Betadine though...
After I put the band aid, I started to feel pain on my finger, then CC said to me to just wait and see whether the blood would stop or not, before we proceed to the hospital...Luckily the blood stop *sigh*
We supposed to have business lunch, but yet the other party forgotten about the appointment and also been busy for these 2 days, so lunch delayed until next week.
After work, we went to Takashimaya S.C. the traffic was quite bad...but yet when we arrived, the Takashimaya itself closed from this evening and tomorrow thourgh out the whole day, and will be back for business on Friday...But all the remaining shop still open for business.
So it felt rather weird, like Chinese New Year period, quiet and weird...not in the sense of quiet no people, but there still quite a number of people, but yet like something missing...
Anyway my purpose is not going to Takashimaya, as we decided to handmade our company Christmas card for this year, how artistic we are, huh?
Hopefully I can manage to finish this project......

SP2 again

My life is still revolving around Windows SP2 issues...as a hectic days that I have to face, then too many files to be backed up, so I have to bear my self to deal with the stupidity of my PC which I found very annoying *sigh*
I couldn't afford to re-install my PC as well, time is so precious to me these days....
Moral of the story Bill Gate is very aiyoh....

Still about Computer, these days I feels tired easily, especially when I work in front of computer,
I think partly also because my computer is not placed properly, so I have to twist my body and head.
Anyway I've ever read from the article, which suggested to use mouse with left hand, but I always fail to do so, may be because of my left side also full of things as well...I don't know....

Starbucks

For those who knows me well, you'll be surprised that I've quit drinking coffee for ages (even though started about end of last year, but for me it's very long).
But today, we were having our breakfast at Starbucks (sorry Jim, not Mc Don Don), and I saw coffee of the day is "Anniversary Blend". As an avid coffee drinker, and a true blue starbucks' fans, of course I was very tempted to try this special flavour. So I asked CC," Will I be okay if I took coffee today?"
He said," Yeah, sure, why not?"
So I was happily ordered one short coffee of the day. As I enjoyed my breakfast nothing happened, and It made me very happy, but in the middle of the church service, suddenly i felt very ill, started with very bad stomach ache, followed by panick attack I guessed, which made me wanted to black out.
As soon as the preach finished, I rushed out, and went to hospital. Then that doctor was on duty *ngelaba* then we talked and I found out that He was Indonesian....wow what a small world..He is Australian now, and working here to avoid the huge tax cut back in Oz...hmmmm what a coincident...anyway not bad lah...even though I'm still ill now, but a bit happy.....*licix*
Anyway I still attended my scrapbooking class in the afternoon, and feel ill again now, don't know whether I'll be well enough for tomorrow or not...I just hope so....
About last posting....I forgot to write down, that one is the twelve apostle in Melbourne. Reading all the confusedness of the comments, made me laugh, anyway I just feel sad because I miss those good old days when I was still in Oz though, surrounded by awesome and fabulous friends...haizzzzzzz.....
Last but not least, forgot to mention credit for Jimmy, who's very kind to teach me how to upload the music to my blog. Thanx a zillion hor Jim! *Singlish*
The song title is I will fly, sung by mm who ar...I forgot, let me check tomorrow then I write down *blush*

Ngajarin Max

Hari ini ceritanya aku lagi mau mulai ngajari si Max, kasian juga udah 2 hari ditinggal ke kantor dan pulank malam.
Tadi aku ke pet shop nyariin semacem kaus kaki atau sepatu buat si Max, soalnya aku pernah liat ada orang lain yang anjingnya punya kaus kaki, tapi ternyata tidak ada tuh, udah nyari ke 2 pet shop...kali itu orang bikin...walah...musti belajar merajut donk kalo gituh *sedih*
Waktu di pet shop aku lagi nge browse2 gituh, eh aku liat walaah snacknya doggie ternyata buanyak buanget....lebih beraneka macam daripada snacknye manusia di Singapore....tapi kalo di oz sih snack manusia banyak juga kok...he he he...
Aniwe tadi malahan di salah satu pet shop ketemu biskuit yang modelnya potato ape yah namanya jaman dulu gopek sebungkus yang biskuitnya bulet2 kecil...dulu doggie yang di Jakarta doyan tuh sama biskuit itu...ternyata ada juga yg khusus buat doggie, tadi jadi sedih waktu ngeliat itu..inget si bleki yang doyan biskuit itu huaaaaaaaaaaa *nangis*
Trusan tadi akhirnya aku beli salah satu snack buat ngajar si Max, merknya pedigree. Tadi sempet takut juga sih, soalnya merk pedigree waktu itu pernah product faulty yang nyebabin anjing mati...tapi ndak tau itu product fault apa doggie fault...kuakakakak....
Hari ini pelajaran pertama ngajarin si Max buat duduk, lumayan berhasil....snacknya 1 guwe cuil2 sampe kecil2 (ndak kecil2 amat lah, aku kan ndak pelit)...sekarang Max sudah bisa duduk. Ndak tau besok masih inget apa kaga denk tentang pelajaran hari ini...
Hmm...gue sekarang ceritanya penganut aliran Kaypang nih...inget gak sih jaman nonton pilem silat gituan? (duh ketahuan uzurnye guwe..) guwe sekarang bawa2 gulungan koran buat ngajarin si Max..alias tongkat pemukul anjing...walah ketua Kaypang donk guwe? kuakakakak.....
BTW tadi waktu lagi ngajarin si Max, aku ngeliatin itu snack kok kayak bumbu gado2 yak? baunya juga agak kacang2an gitu dan gula jawa....huaaaaaa jadi pengen gado2....

Second Chance

Today I got a very shocking news from 1 of my clients, which said our company will not have other chance to participate in their tender ever more.
It's just because we made 1 mistake, and that's all. There will be no more chance for us to prove our credibility at all.
I felt very terribly sad, hurt, and perhaps angry because of that. But when I tried to think more about it, I feel that it won't be so bad, we've tried to do our best, but yet mistakes still do happen.
Then it also makes me thing of lots of happenings in my life, where I feel I'm still lucky enough I can have not even second chance, but many chance to make my self better. Especially when it come to think about our relationship with God. God is very forgivefull, He always wait for us, even though we always make mistakes, and the same mistakes over and over again, but yet God is still willing to accept us when we come back to Him, doesn't he?

Ujian lagi

Udah lama ndak update blog euy, banyak kerjaan dan malesnya kumat soalnya *blush*...he he he...
Masih inget kan dulu yang aku ndak lulus ujian buat driving licensenya s'pore? nah tadi aku pergi ujian lagi....dapet yang jam 7.30, tapi CC saking napsunya sampe di sono jam 6.50..weleh be te abis euy nunggunya....
Nah ujian kali ini, bukunya baru euy...sampulnya sih tetep jelek...he he he...tapi kertas di dalemnya bersih ndak kayak yang waktu itu banyak coretan dan tambal sulam di buku ujiannya...
Trus ujiannya kan pake kertas scanner tuh, nah aku buletinnya males, tapi yang jaga ujiannye bilang,"Wah you should filled it thoroughly, you're one ah..just like buying toto like that, later on the OMR machine can not read leh..." Duh orang2 pada ketawa.....
Yah udah akhirnya aku mbuletin lagi yang depan2..eh bukan bulet2 dink yang ini kotak2 *grinned* pegel juga euy, mana pake pen yang 0.3 lagi....kan lama tuh mbuletinnya *sigh*
Padahal sebelumnya aku dah mau mbolos ujian loh, soalnya tadi di kantor agak sorean gitu agak nggak enak badan, tapi akhirnya aku pulang dulu jam 4.45 gitu, tidur-tiduran sambil nge-review buku driving theory....akhirnya agak membaik juga...
Nah abis ujian kita mamam di Holland Village, ke pet shop dulu, eh ada beagle juga, ada 2, yang 1 segede yang aku liat minggu kemaren, dan yang 1 lagi masih kecilan lagi wara wiri di luar...jadine yah aku main2 sama yang lagi nangkring di luar itu....
Lah aku lagi bingung kenapa yah..orang2 di sini (tukang pet shop maksude) pada bilang beagle itu anjingnya sangat hyper active, lebih gila dari jack Russel, padahal selama ini menurut pengertianku kayanya beagle anteng2 ajeh....ya ndak sih? Jadi bingunk....
Ada pesen2 bagaimana cara melatih puppy yang baik sehingga puppynya bisa tumbuh jadi anjing yang berguna bagi nusa dan bangsa ndak? Kayanya kharisma aku ndak begitu kuat terhadap anjing, soale dulu anjingku di Indo cuma takut sama bokap dan nyokap....aku sih ndak dianggep ama anjingku dulu *sedih*

Kemaren

Begitu nulis ini judul gue jadi inget ada lagunye Potret yah yang dimulai dengan kata kemarin...
Duh jadi ngaco, kemarin pagi dimulai dengan kepanikan di kamar mandi lagi, karena setelah gue beli sabun cuci muka gue, trusan gue lupa naruh di kamar mandi, alhasil kemarin pagi minjem punyanya CC yang baunya macho itu lagi, so the whole day felt macho....
On the way to office, suddenly CC shouted,"Wahhh terrible accident, did you see?" Gue celangak celinguk ndak keliatan ape2 pas sampe junction gue baru ngeliat ada uncle2 naek sepeda ditabrak ama mobil, dan CC bilang it uncle sebelum jatuh sempet terbang dan mendarat di kaca depan mobilnya dan jatuh di aspal...
Pas gue liat waduh mak beneran kaca depannya rengat dan bonyok ke dalam, tapi unclenya masih sadar lo, masih bisa maki2 itu cewe...dan yang gebleknye itu cewe kaga mau keluar dari mobil, akhirnya ada tukang taksi yg nolongin itu uncle, baru cewenya keluar dari mobil, tapi dengan nggak kalah galaknye tuh cewe nunjuk2 lampu penyebrangan, maksudnye si uncle itu lewat pas lampu penyebrangan udah merah...
Wah kalo dah kayak gini sih gue ndak tau salah siapa, sebenernye itu cewe musti ngebrake donk kalo liat unclenya nyebrang even though lampu penyebrangan merah, tapi sapa tau juga dasar cewekan biasanya gugup, bukanya nginjek rem kali nginjek gas..but aniwe...itulah Singaporean...
Karena selama pengalaman gue di sini, mereka tuh beneran short sighted deh, ndak hanya makna implist tapi juga eksplisit, pake kacamata kan..kauakka...serius nih..bentar...kalo yang gue liat pengemudi di sini pada umumnya mereka cuma ngeliat mobil di depan mereka, dan mereka selalu assume bahwa semua orang pasti patuh pada peraturan yang berlaku, padahal di lain sisi mereka juga mau break the law...tapi karena asumsi yang salah jadinye sering terjadi kecelakaan...
Trusan orang Singapore kalo nyetir juga kiasu banget, bisa keliatan kalo lagi ngantr di lampu merah, even though lane sebelah mereka cuma kosong satu mobil, pasti deh mereka pindah, hayoooyg di singapore kalo naek bus coba perhatiin orang2 yang nyetirrr....
Kalo orang Indo kan biasanya kalo nyetir pandangannya jauh ke samping kanan, kiri, depan dan belakang....jadi udah tau kalo di depan 5 mobil ada mobil mogok, dan semua orng prepare kalo tiba2 mobil di samping kita tau2 motong jalur tempat kita....coba hayo mikir lagi.....
Kemarin itu bener2hari yang super sibuk buat gue musti keluar2 buanyak, kayanya lama2 gue bisa sakit jantung dan tua di jalan...haizzz....*sigh*
Ada kejadian lucu banget....kan kita ke salah satu cllient nih....ceritanya dia mau ngeprint sesuatu, dan isinya adalah customer mereka kalo beli berapa duit gitu dari mereka bakalan dapet hadiah berupa Davidoff Cool Water....nah si CC ini polos (gue yakin ini bakalan kejadiannya sama kalo yang ke situ si jimmy...kuakakakka....) ..dia nanya ama tuh orang,"Eh why your company so stingy? Only give people water only?"
Dan tuh orang innocentnya jawab,"Ya lor...economy is bad mah...so we can't afford to give out expensive things, so we just give water lor...."
Trus CC balik ke mobil dan bilang ke gue,"What sort of water ya Davidoff Coool Water? How come I've never seen in supermarket before?" dengan muka polosnya....
Yah kontan ajah gue ngakak.....,"That one is a perfume for women lah...."
Dia jawab,"Eh serious..you read Davidoff Cool Water, Davidoff only makes man perfume mah...."
Gila ajeh jelas gue tambah ngakak, dan dia masih bilang,"Wah poor that guy ya...whether he knows or not ar... this one is not a water, but perfume, later on he drinks how?"
Beneran deh gue ngakak,"I bet you're the who's fooled by him lah, he will not as clueless as you..."
Dan terbukti kann hari ini tuh orang bilang just joking with you that one is a perfume...untung kemaren si CC ndak polos2 banget kuaakkakakakkaka...
Aniwe kemaren kita ke pet shop, ada beagle aduh lutjuuuuunyaaaaa, ndak kuat guwe, CC dah nawar2.....tapi karena pembantunya belom dateng ke tempat kita makanya kita ndak jadi beli dulu, tapi setelah pulang gue mikir2 lagi beli jangan yak...hiks....ntar furniture di rumah rusak...mana rumah sewaan lagi, kalo rumah gue sendiri sih ndak ape2...dah gitu kalo di abwa ke kantor, ruangan gue carpeted lagi, ntar kalo pipis sembarangan gimana....dan gitu delivery man gue takut anjing lagi...duh pusink.....so any komen beli ndak ya? duhh lucuuu bangettttttt....apa ada yang mau beliin gue? kaukkakakakka
Trusan semalem last destination of supplier, film maker (itu loh film buat printing, bukan film video), doh mak nangkring di situ lama banget, karena ternyata film yg udah dicast out salah, karena asumsi printernye bakalan 8 halaman seperti contoh, tapi real thingsnya 12 halaman, di jepret di tengah....jadi semuanya ngacooo hiks...ini lah kali makanye elo musti belajar math yang namana ilmu ukur ruang (nama tempoe doeloe), dan nama kerennya geometri kalli ye...tapi kayanye geometri ndak seserem ilmu ukur ruang itu..yang gue dapet di SMAK 1, dengan guru killer pula Mr Tjoe Hong, duh tuh orang masih ndak yah? jangan2 ntar dia baca blog gue lagi kuakakkakaka....dia tuh tampangnye kayak hmmm...Jendral twang di salah satu pilem Mcgyver (doh ketahuan deh gue udah uzur nontonnya pelem mcgyver) kuakakkaka... updates..kata Abi dah berenti..iye gue inget die berenti dari SMAK 1, duh gue kok jadi pelupa gini sih *sigh*
Nah intinya dari ilmu ukur ruang itu elo harus bisa membayangkan hal2 yang tidak nyata....kata si Tjoe Hong, jangan ngelamun jorok terus, pake buat menghayal di pelajaran ilmu ukur ruang itu....dan ini berguna buat bikin pilem yang ngeprintnye dijepret di tengah.....
Trusan setelah dari tukang pilem ceritanye pulan nih, di jalanan CC masih bilang," Wah I need to do thousands and one thing, like preparing the film, and do the mock up for the printing.."
Then gue jawab,"Yeah just treat it as you're making scrap book lah..."
Eh ternyata sampe di rumah, dia dengan senyum manis menghampiri gue," Eh, you don't mind helping me doing the mock up of the catalogue." waaaaaaaaaaa curanggg lah wong dia bilang dia mau bikin sendiri kok, tentu ajeh gue mencak2...tapi dia kasih alasan yang ndak bisa gue tolak, katanye dia takut salah mock up.....doh give up deh gue...sebel....

Trusan CC bilang," What jorok? Who's jorok?"
Gue bilang,"That car washer is very jorok, they used the clothes for hiping the car to whipe their face.." (di Singapore biasanya kalo di tempat parkir gedung gituh pasti ada tukang cuci mobil langganan, bayar bulanan, dan biasanya orang India)
Jadi akhirnya CC juga ikutan teriak," Waaaaaaa jorok donk." (CC bisalah bahasa Indo dikit2)
Trsan gue jadi mikir kayanya kita wrong frekuensi nih, dan ternyata kecurigaan gue itu terbukti...gue nanya ama CC,"Are you concernng the car cleanliness or what?"

Gue bilang,"Walah dodol, I more concern about his face lah..."

Tough Life

Sorry I didn't post anything at all yesterday. On saturday lunch before came back to the office to work again, we ate at Ayer Rajah food centre (Sizzler sebrang sekolah, kalo kata Ipone)...we ate Malay food...
We bought from the usual stall, my fave of course, which since the first time I saw that stall I've already been suspicious that one of the owner or whoever is Indonesian. It was proven on Saturday, the owner is from Semarang.
She also complains the life in Singapore is very hard, but there is nothing that she can do. If she stayed in Semarang meaning she has to work very hard but still got nothing. But working in Singapore, she has to work triple hard, but can get something...well life is tough she said...that's why the mental hospital in Singapore is crowded....I wanted to laugh hearing her saying that...
Because..long long time ago, when me and CC still free like a birds, have a ll the time in world to roam every corner of Singapore, we ever been curious enough to drive thru the mental hospital in Hougang, it's called Woodbridge Hospital.
To my surprise. the wards, can be said 80% full, as we drove at night, so we could see all the lights are on...my reaction is,"Oh my god, why so many people have mental problem here in Singapore until has to be locked up?"
CC said," well life in Singapore is so bloody tough, that's why all of them are there.."which I couldn't understand until now.
Now, my self, need help from psychiatrist as well, life is so tough here. Even when I went to to Woodbridge Hospidal day clinic, I can see lots of people from all kinds walk of life is there, but most of them are just like us, a normal working executives, look very young and healthy...surprise surprise.....
And I suspect that girl from Semarang also seeing psychiatrist her self....
Moral of the stories: for those who lives in Singapore, please try to balance your work and play, and don't be offended if you got scolding from uncle taxi or auntie ahwker, because life is very competitive and stressfull here....

To All Female in Singapore

If you received mailer on Thursday or Friday, then you could smell Mc Donald fume from the mailer or see the oil stain on the mail, it must be from me *blush*
Coz right now, I'm stuck in the office, printing the mail, eating McDonald for dinner sadly....
No Japanese class for today or next week, I cancelled it my self *sad* it becoz of my huge responsibility to my beloved works, or my beloved clients, to be exact.....
This afternoon after I went to see clients, I was still considering whether should or shouldn't I go to the Japanese course. I've tried all the methods, counting buttons, counting finger, etc.....until the last second, then I felt that I love my clients more than anything....
Still lotsa works to do, lotsa deadline to meet...sometimes I'm just wandering what's happening to me, till becoming so workaholics like this? Me is not the old me.....
All works no play made me a dull girl *sad*
Tell you story lah, I went to buy my dinner at West Coast Park Mc D, then I ordered mm...what I order ah? oh no forgot, something to do with chicken burger lah...but anyway CC ordered Big Mac, then suddenly I realised the Abang repeated my order as,"One Mbig Mac plis..." So I asked him,"Mas dari Indo yah?" si Mas answered with a shy smile,"Iyah, kok mbak tau?"
So boldly I told him,"Coz you pronounced big Mac as Mbig mac mah..."
weleh....the conversation ended with Matur nuwun....kuakkkakakakkakakka

Kemaren udah diwanti2 ama Agnes jangan lupa mengheningkan cipta buat hari ini, weleh tadi gue dalam perjalanan ke kantor baru nyadar udah mau jam 11 euy, tapi setelah gue pikir2 ahh kan kalo mengheningkan cipta musti disesuaikan dengan Waktu Indonesia bagian Barat (WIB) donk...so jadi gue mengheningkan cipta bareng si Jimmy di Yahoo Messenger kuakakkakakakka.....

The Revenge of Dim Sum Dolly

Latest Update:
Tadi pas abis ngudapte blog, CC ngajakin nonton fireworks, tapi tetep ajah nggak napsu, so gue bilang kita survey yuk orang2 yg nonton fireworks...walaaaweee *singlish* baru jam 6 lewat dah ruaaameee buanget, tempat yang waktu itu kita tongkrongin juga udah penuh dengan mobil, jauh lebih ruaamee dari yang 2 minggu yang lalu, di jembatan juga ruaaamueee deh...untung nggak mood nonton..weleh...
Kemudian gue pikir wah kalo orang2 semua tumplek di Marina dan sekitarnya, orchard pasti sepi nih, so gue memutuskan buat pergi ke Plaza Singapura yang biasanya kalo hari Minggu ramenya amit2 nggak bakalan dapet parkir, tapi kali ini dapet sih parkirnya tapi agak rame...
Di sana LG lagi ada pameran di atriumnye, MC-nye gelo abis, bagi2 hadiah, nantangin orang buat dance alone, atau bareng dia, sayang gue nggak liat, gue cuma liat kontestan 1 sedikit, dan kontestan terakhir sedikit, weleh kontestan terakhirnya itu orang India, pake sari, dan nari-nye bener2 kayak di pelem India, tapi sayang nggak ada tiang...tapi muter2nya seru loh...so tentu aja dia yang menang...
Oh ya besok ada temen gue nih yang ultah juga, tapi dah mikir dari beberapa hari yang lalu, nggak kepikiran juga musti diapain nih orang. Gawat mood jail gue udah nggak setajam dulu, udah beli kue sih, cuma prank-nya belom kepikiran, tadi abis diskusi sama temen yg laen katanya suruh aje suaminya yang bawa kuwenya ke sono sambil nyanyi, trusan gue pikir2 sekretarisnya kan galak tuh, bisa nggak yah diajak kerja sama buat ngerjain temen gue itu...so masih mikir2 juga sih....

Semalem akhirnya gue nonton Dim Sum Dolly *seneng* Dim Sum Dolly ini semacem play gitu, terdiri dari 3 aktris pemain utama, dan dibantu dengan 6 aktor pemain hiburan gitu....Bisa dibilang comedy play sih, they sing, they talk, they dance, and quite satirical, nyinggung2 politik, dan kehidupan singaporean sehari2 pada umumnya...
Lucu banget, gue ketawa sampe nggak bisa berhenti, sampe teriak2 juga (padahal lagi sakit leher, sekarang suara gue tambah husky gara2 Dim Sum Dolly)....hilarious, 6 thumbs up deh...nanti tahun depan bakalan ada sequelnya lagi, dan gue pasti nonton.
Dulu mereka pernah maen pertama di Jubilee Hall, Raffles Hotel, tapi karena pertunjukannya sukses banget, jadi kali ini maennya di Esplanade...pas selesai semua orang tepuk tangan, nggak berenti2, dan gue tepuk tangan ampe tangan dan leher gue sakit, kan sambil teriak2...beneran entertaining deh....nggak rugi banget...
3 aktris pemainnya itu bener2 talented, mereka bisa niru2 bahasa Inggrisnya orang Jepang (waktu adegan Princess Masako), niru aksennya orang Indo (waktu adegan Megawati, malah mereka plesetin jadi Megamati, weleh....), niru aksennya orang Filipina punya Inggris... niru Singlishnya Malay pula, perfect, absolutely perfect...
At the end mereka ada acara autograph session, gue ngantri donk tentunya..tapi guwe cuma beli cd doank, tadinye mau beli kaos juga tapi duit gue nggak cukup *sedih*
Mereka rencananya mau go International, tapi guwe lagi mikir, kayanya kalo mereka go International, orang nggak bakalan ngerti deh jalan ceritanya, unless mereka rubah ceritanya ke yang lebih global...
Tadi guwe bangun kesiangan buat ke gereja seperti biasa....dan harus ke tempat salah satu client gue yang anaknye ceritanya berumur 1 bulan, duh gue nggak suka sih tuh orang, tapi apa boleh buat yah diundang masa kaga dateng.
Pas guwe lagi nyetrika baju kesayangan gue, weleh baju gue kena bocoran setrikaan loh....doh gue ampir nangis...padahal sebelum gue nyetrika kan itu setrika abis dipake ama CC, trus dibersihin. Dan gue juga udah curiga kalo abis dibersihin biasanya suka leak steamernya, jadinye gue jajal di baju gue yang buat dipake bobo dulu, dan setelah gue liat aman hasilnya, nggak ada bocoran baru gue setrika baju gue....
Pas udah selesai nyetrika gue matiin setrikaannya kan, tapi nggak lama gue liat kok baju gue nggak licin2 banget, so gue nyalain setrika lagi, dan langsung gue setrika baju gue....dohhhh tau2 steamernya bocorrrrrr.....gondok, marah, sebel, pengen nangis seua nyampur jadi satu, gue teriak2 kaya orang kesetanan, CC sampe kaget..kuakakakakak...untung masih bisa dicuci pake stain remover, kalo nggak, doh.....gondok atuh...
Dalam perjalanan ke rumah itu orang, gue dah mulai gatel2....duh untungnye gue flu, dan suara guwe mendukung, jadi gue dah wanti2 ama CC,"Jangan lama2 yah, kasih angpao terus pergi, ntar kalo bayinye kenape2 gue lagi yg disalahin." (tentu aja gue ngomong bahasa Inggris, cuma ini gue pake bahasa Indo, just in case itu orang baca blog gue..kauakakakkaka).
Semuanya berjalan sesuai dengan rencana, gue cuma menclok di pintu rumahnya doank, malahan gue bilang eh gue nggak berani deket2 elo ntar elo ketepak lagi sama gue...kauakakkaka padahal mah....gue yang takut ketepak ama belagunye die kauakakkaka.....
Trusan ceritanya hari ini Aussino diskon up to 40%, CC bilang wah kita musti beli nih, stock up (kiasu kan..kauakakkakak). Tapi sampe Aussino kok jadinye gue nggak napsu beli ape2....bagus deh..duit gue utuh....
Ngomongin Aussino, gue pertama kali ngeliat Aussino gue bingung loh, kok Singaporean tuh crazy banget sama nih toko, perasaan sprenya biasa2 ajah, dan selama gue di sydney kok gue juga nggak tau ada toko merk Aussino, ternyata mereka cuma punya toko di Melben ato di perth gue lupa deh, pantesan gue kaga tau....Padahal kalo ngomongin spre, toh yang di David Jones, kualitasnya masih jaohhh lebih bagus dari Aussino, dan lebih terjangkau...weleh...dasar gue kuper....
Di luar sekarang lagi lumayan mendung, kayanye ntar bakalan hujan, so fireworks nggak bakalan sukses deh, ini hari pertunjukan terakhir nih ceritanya...dan gue udah nggak napsu ngeliat, tadi sih CC nawarin, tapi mengingat giginya CC masih bengkak, dan gue lemes banget gara2 flu, nggak mood deh gue buat moto....
Ngomong2 tentang CC gue jadi inget tadi siasng pas lunch, gue lagi liat2 kok CC pipinya masih bengkak gitu makannya lebih lahap dari gue ya....ini CC laper ape gue yang fussy ama makanan? kuakkakakakkaka....
