One Night in Jakarta

It's going to be long posting, so I divide into several parts, just in case if you would like to do installment on reading *senyum manis*
Konser 3 Diva
Image hosting by PhotobucketIt was a really bloody damn good concert, I can't describe how good they are in singing all the songs, talked to the audience, etc..etc...but yet what I can say is Mama Ruth (that's how KD called her) is still as sweet as before, Ibu Titi (that's how KD called her also)is still funky and energetic, the voice become more solid, and Mbak Kridayanti is still vain and pretty...wow keren ajah deh...till now I'm still in the state of half believed that I've gone to their concert *ngelamun*
If only I knew the concert was so bloody great, I'd should have bought ticket for that 2 concert, I wouldn't mind though *nyengir*
They also featuring 3 young singer, Audi, Andhin and Shanti..which of course you can't compare the quality with those 3 divas lah ya.....
The music was conducted by Erwin Gutawa and all crews, he is still as cool, and also Jay Subiakto, still gondrong....
Oustide the Concert Hall
When I arrived, it was a little bit traffic jam, but not so bad, a long side Jalan Asia Afrika a lot of calo (=middle man) offering concert's ticket, which I don't know real or fake. The queue to go in was suprisingly very long, luckily the VIP door not so bad. A lot of calo (=middle man) asking me if I had spare ticket to sell, then they will sell again to other desperate people who doesn't have ticket *sigh*
Hard Rock Cafe
My compatriots picked me up from the concert hall to have dinner, we decided to go to Hard Rock Cafe, considering I was staying in Grand Hyatt and I have something to pass to them, while on the other hand I need life music (in Singapore nobody can sing as good as our own singer, even the band in Plaza Ex is still much more better than the club singer in Singapore *sigh*), also my compatriots might be tired from work and had to go to work the next day....Actually my partner in crime (no she didn't come to Jakarta) suggested to go to F Bar, just next to Hard Rock Cafe, but considering my Uni best friend would join us afterwards, and her husband to be doesn't like "Dugem", so decided Hard Rock lah...
One of my compatriot was having a birthday last week, as a funds manager, I decided to give her a birthday surprise, I told the Hard Rock Cafe staffs that my friend having a birthday, so she was dragged to the stage, and dipped her face into the ice cream...wow...cruel huh? wakakakkaka.....
Seeing that, I think those 2 brides to be, getting worried about what they're going to get for their hen party, when I'm in charge *devil smile* wakakkaka...Especially my uni's best friend's husband to be (wow so long ya? wkakakak), I don't think he would allow me to bring my friend for hen party holiday *yakin*
Now that I realised something, birthday prank always associated with Hard Rock Cafe ya? *ngelirik Agnes* wakakkak...so next time, if I asked you to go to Hard Rock Cafe, you'd better watch out...eh anyway will i get endorsement from Hard Rock or not ya? *again*
Torn Between 2 Lovers
It's always hard for me to decide who to meet during my visit to Jakarta, as my compatriots and my best friend are not really compatible, so some of the time I tried my best to arrange my time between 2 of them, or sometimes to the extend I only informing one of them *blush*
But yesterday time was so precious and I have to meet all of them, so no choice put them together in Hard Rock Cafe, meanwhile I tried very hard to switch myself between them, while the music was so loud *sigh*
Food
Image hosting by Photobucket Image hosting by PhotobucketI had my lunch on Thursday @ Bakerz Inn Plaza Ex, as everybody told me the oxtail soup is very delicious, so I had that one. Too excited with the food, I forgot to take photo first before I ate, so the result, you could see the rice had been eaten a bit *blush*
While for Friday lunch which I had with full set of compatriots (it's friday, they could have a reason to eat out), first they offered me whether I wanted to eat Thai, Japanese or Chinese, then I said,"Indonesian please"
So we ate @ Plangi, Wroeng Podjok, wow....very bloody yummy, I also had Jamu Kunyit Asem, but the taste of course different lah from the Jamu Bakul..but tak ada rotan akarpun jadi kannnn
My New Look
Most of you in Singapore have seen my transgression from long hair to short hair, but it's a new look for my friends in Jakarta, the last time they saw me, I was still with long hair.
But I used to have a short hair when I was still in Jakarta, anyway actually I'm trying to keep my hair long again, but all of them said I look much more better with short hair, so I think I'll keep my hair short lah ya....gimane penonton? *buru2 pake helm*
Jakarta
I'm impressed with all the building progress in Jakarta, it was only around middle of last year I went back, but the difference is a lot *shocked* I've never expected the expansion of the Hotel Indonesia is going to be that huge *surprised* and next to Aston, Kebon Kacang, they're building a tall building again, then a lot lah here and everywhere...I was deeply surprised...but yet happy...finally we're moving forward again, even though the busway made the traffic became worse *sigh*
The other positive things that I saw, that all the shopping malls that I'd visited, all dress up for Chinese New Year, even the information counter staff wearing the chinese outfit, the things that I'd never seen when I was still staying in Jakarta a few years back, I feel very happy about it. Even when I was in Sogo Supermarket, they were playing chinese songs *surprised* So I was confused, I thought I was in Singapore but why all the staff can speak Indonesian ya? *dongo* Then I realised I was not day dreaming lah, I was really in Jakarta *blush*
Last but not Least
2 days 1 nite in Jakarta would never be enough, so many things to do, so many people to meet, so many things to eat, so many celebrity gossips program to watch....but over all I'm very satisfied with my trip, but felt not enough (nah...loh...bingung kan? wakkakakak), I was telling my friends, it was just like eating 3 piece of kuaci (=melon seeds) *sakauwwww boooo*
Actually I've made a very well planned schedule before I left Singapore, but anyway, it was all messed up, even I didn't have time to go to the hotel gym or swim, no need to say whether I have time to go to the spa some more *sad*
So for those who celebrates Chinese New YearI would like to wish you
A very Happy Chinese New Year,
Xing Nien Guai Le
Gong Xi Fa Cai, and
Hong Bao Na I Ge Lai *wakakakkakakkaka*
It will be to much if I asked you to send Hong Bao money, but let me ask you to tax you for your Hong Bao money lah ya...at least more polite *senyum manis*
For those who doesn't have a nice week end ajah deh....I know that it's going to be super duper long holiday in Indonesia, with Harpitnas on Monday...and if you would like to send me some Hong Bao also, I'll be very happy to receive wakakkakkakaka......

Konser 3 Diva

Finally, after a long decision making, and struggle, I proudly announce that I'm going to do the craziest thing in my live ever...
I'll be going to Jakarta only to see "Konser 3 Diva" which become the talk of the town. I'll be spending only 1 nite in Jakarta for the concert, what a waste of my free fiscal ya? But still have 3 more to go...no worries...don't be so kiasu lah *nyengir*
The long and winding process after I checked my schedule, that I can go to Jakarta, then I found out that the online ticket had been sold out, panicked, consulted my friend, and she said, try Ibu Dibyo. So I made IDD called they said still have, so I checked the ticket, yupe Sin-Jkt no problem, but Jkt-Sin no more seat available..
Every day I tried to check the website, until yesterday finally everything settled *lega*
Then the konser 3 Diva wanted to change to konser 4 diva, coz I'm going mah...but I said," I can't sing, coz I'll be too tired to perform 2 shows for tomorrow wakakakakka....besides, later on if I sing, then they become no longer famous how? wakakakkakakakkaka....

Renungan

A few days ago I read an article about Sharon Au (one of Singaporean actress, who decided to leave for studying in Japan on scholarship sponsored by TV station) life's story.
The article said, Sharon works very hard and always tries her best to make other people happy, because her childhood were so tough, and most of her friends pity her coz these things are not easy and not fair for her.
That article reminds me of my counsellor statement to me,"Flona, I see that in your life, you always try very hard to make other people happy, even though you have to sacrifice your own happiness in order to achieve that. Have you ever tought of making your self happy instead?"
Second question is,"You hide your feelings very well, you hardly show your anger to other people, and you swallow everything yourself, don't you feel it's very hard for you?"
It's a very difficult questions, I've never thought about it. I think what I do is normal, until she woke me up and I've just realised that I've grown up to learn that a lot of things can not be accepted by my parents, the only things that I can do is trying to be accepted by them, by doing things that they can accept. I can't show any negative feelings towards them, they only want to see in a very good condition both physically and emotionally. I know they love me and proud of me so much, but they only care to provide me with material than emotional well being. They work very hard which I know because they concern about my future. They only monitor me by physically being around them but don't ever know what's inside my heart and mind. They don't really guide me, but they apply "banana law" (remember ospek?), which:
Rule no one parents are always right.
Rule no two if parents do wrong, please refer to rule no one.

It's not an easy environment to grow up and not an easy things to do as well. Thanks God I grew up became like me now, didn't go to the wrong path, but then the impact is, I don't know what actually that I really want and a lot of bitterness inside me. I can't show my anger...I can't express negative feelings towards other people...I can't say "No" just simply because when I reject something then I'll hurt their feelings...When I make decision I will put a lot of consideration of other people around me, not only my parents but everybody (now you know, why Nunik still live happily inside my house *grinned*).
Lately I learned that my behaviour is not normal, no matter how much efforts you put to make other people happy, it will never be enough, and I have to try even harder to keep them happy. Worse still, some of the irresponsibble and heartless people try to use this opportunity towards me. I'm very exhausted now, but there's no way out...I play the game too deep to go out....
Still I don't blame my parents , but I have to thank them for providing me, for all the things that they've done made me become stronger and down to earth person. If I try to see the positive side, it's because of my weak heart, that make me in my position now, I always go extramiles for my clients, just because I can't say "No". The other positive is when I see the wall in front of me (especially when dealing with clients), I have to think of solution that make them happy instead of showing my anger towards them for their ridiculous requests.
Then on tuesday evening, while I was driving, I listened to 1 of the radio channel, which I forgot which one, they were discussing about happiness, and they asked 1 question that really made me think very hard,"Are you happy with your life? have you done something that you really want in your life?"
Again, that question really ring my bell, but the problem is "what do I really want in my life?"
I've forgotten about my self, especially my feelings so long time ago, I'm very numb now... until I don't even care (can't think of to be exact) what I do really want to be and to get for my life *sigh*

Eeeekkkkk (again)

After class last nite, I was waiting for my dinner to come, felt quite hungry, may be because the quiz was over, so my appetite came back.
Suddenly my phone ring, it was from my mom, she said,"Lu masih ada gitar gak di Jakarta"
I smelled something fishy going on here,"Kayanya sih ada, kenapa Ma?"
My mom,"Oh itu si Silvy (my cousin) mau minta gitar lu. Itu yang di rumah gitar dari Jakarta bukan?"
Me,"Bukan mah, itu bawa dari Sydney kok."
Mom,"Oh kalo gitu mah mustinya di Jakarta masih ada ya?"
Me,"Mustinya sih iya, loh bukannya Silvy waktu itu bilang dia mau les biola? Kok tiba2 jadi ganti les gitar?"
Mom,"Oh gak kayanya sekolahan mau pake".
I'm very bloody sure my mom lied to me saying the school required her to have guitar, just because I told her that I thought she wanted to take violin lesson.
Yupe, I have a bad blood with my cousins from my mom sides, especially those in Jakarta, all of them are much younger than me, coz my Aunts and Uncle married quite late.
It's not me who started all of this, you know better what kind of human being I am as a friend, rite? So I will not treat somebody, especially my very own cousin badly.
Well, a lot of factors that can trigger this bad blood things:
1. My Grandma used to dot me very much, coz I'm the only grandchild until quite sometime, but even though my cousin came along afterwards, but it had never changed the amount of love and attention that my Grannie gave to me, I'm still the one.
2. As the eldest person around, I think their parents always use me as an example,"Why can't you do something like Cici? and Cici this....Cici that..bla..bla..bla..." (I feel very sorry for them for this one lah ya, especially seems that my life performance is quite good superficially, and I don't agree with this comparison for children, you have to know the yardstick for your own children, don't you?) But what can I do? I'm very well behave since young. I'm not naughty, even though after I grown up then tanduk gue mulai keluar dan buntut gue baru mulai numbuh *blush*
Okay come back to this Silvy, before hand I didn't have any suspicion towards her, my conscience always clear towards everybody, but I can't remember much how I interact with her when I was still in Jakarta, because our age gap is very far, she's still in her 3rd year of Junior High.
I only remember when she was still a very small girl, everytime she came to my house she always sticked to the baby sitter, I tried to create conversation, she didn't want to answer, so I tought she was shy towards me, I gave her my stuff toys, she didn't even want to touch, so most of the time (but she seldom came lah) I just left her with her baby sitter.
Then I moved to Sydney, everytime I went back for holiday, she always like to drag the mother to meet me, I tought it's just teenager, you know they like to be close to someone old than them, and make me her idol.
My auntie told me also, she doesn't have friends in school, so I assumed may be she's not exposed to what teenager should do, I bought her some Indonesian teen magazine (Gadis) for her to be updated, then I talked to her like I talk to my own friend.
But everytime I asked her question she always answered by I don't know. Then in return she asked me moron question like,"Ci, kenapa sih cici sekolah di Australia?"
I don't know what to answer,"Mmm soalnya Australia kan deket, lagian papa bilang jangan pergi jauh2".
She,"Kenapa cici gak ke UK ajah?"
Me,"Hah? UK kan mahal, lagian jauh."
She,"Loh kan Poundsterling itu mata uang paling mahal di dunia, mustinya sekolah di UK juga paling bagus di dunia donk?"
Wah gue mulai gondok nih..."Cici gak gitu familiar sama Uni di UK, lagian gag tau mana yang bagus, lagia mahal ajah."
She,"Kan udah dibilang poundsterling paling mahal, pasti semua sekolah bagus dong?"
I started to vomit blood,"Ahh mahal, gak mampu bayarnya nanti".
She still try to force her way,"Loh kan papa cici kaya, papanya cici bisa bayarin deh..."
I vomit blood until running out of blood,"Yang kaya kan papa cici, bukan cici...jadi cici gak punya hak buat menghamburkan duitnya papa buat hal2 yang gak penting donk."
Still she said,"Kalo Silvy sih, kalo gak ke UK, Silvy gak mau sekolah di luar negeri". *gubraksss*
Oh ... My ...God, is it really there is moral degradation for younger generation or it's only her that misbehave? *gubraks*
The stories continues, she really have desire that she has to perform much better than me...which fine for me, good for her future, but please do it in the positive way.
She takes English tuition, but for the NEM (PSLE result), her English is only 6, then the parents questioned her, why she only got 6 while she's having additional English lesson, she simply answered,"Abis di tempat les banyakan mainnya sih". *gubraksss*
Which I countred,"Main itu kan belajar juga, either vocabulary or grammar."
She knew that I joined LIA before, she kept on pestering me what level were I in when I started join LIA, which I couldn't remember, but she's still not satisfied with my answer....but now LIA open a program for secondary student, so she die die have to register, but when doing placement test, I heard that she only got low result, so she was on strike didn't want to join LIA.
In returns she forced her way to join EF instead, which in my opinion it's only waste of money, and I heard she even took TOEFL test, I don't understand what's she's trying to prove, as the results is only 200 *gubraks lagi*
she asked me why I take guitar lessson, not piano? Which I answered with I couldn't afford to buy piano, and be realistic, it's quite hard to learn piano when you've grown up. Then suddenly she started to say she wanted to learn violin, just simply because not many people don't know how to play violin, plus violin is expensive *gubraks lagi*
The last question that I asked her since she's very eager to outperform me,"Syl, kamu kan dah kelas 3 nih, ntar sma mo masuk mana?"
She,"K Yusuf lagi lah.."
I'm very itchy,"Gak mau masuk SMAK 1 ajah kaya cici?"
She,"Wah mana bisa....kayanya hasil sekolah saya gak bakalan bisa buat masuk SMAK 1 deh.."
At least this one her answer is still realistic enough..wakakakkaka...
Then after last nite phone conversation with my mom suddenly I lost my appetite *sigh*

Eeeeeekkkkkkkk

I'd just finished my bath this morning, suddenly my mobile phone rang.
I'd never expected that call was from that 2 head snake.....eeeekkkkk....I tot from somebody else in that company, regarding some other jobs.
Once I hear her voice, I could smell trouble *oh no*
True enough, she asked me a question regarding that idiot project, that I have no power to reject, because some internal reason which link one to another....
I've finished part 1 of the project, which I'd asked so many time before I started doing it, to double confirm what result that she wants me to deliver...
I've never been so loh-so (=long winded) in my life before, but dealing with 2 head snake, made me realised I need to do so in order to cover my butt...
But yet, the call this morning, she still asking me why I gave her those 2 bloody files, which she asked me what's those 2 files all about...then when I tried to explain she still asked me," I can't understand what you're talking about, just answer me what is the 2 files you sent to me for?"
Wah lau eh....she pretended to be stupid or she's worse than a moron? I've already tried to explain with a very simple, plain and easy to understand answer, but yet she still asking me that idiot question *sigh*
I have no choice but told her,"You remember before we started I've already asked you so many times about what the result that you want? You told me that just gave you 2 files that consist of X and Y? Then I don't know how many time I double confirm with you regarding your answer? Nah these are the 2 files (wanted to say these are the 2 bloody files) that you told me to do!"
After hearing my statement, she kept quite, coz she knew she had nothing else to say... $@@%^&^$%$#%^&
Then she said,"Then how am I supposed to do with these 2 files?"
I answered,"I don't know, I only delivered what you asked me to do"
She answered with a weak voice,"Ok lor, I'll try to see what I can do about it.."
Inside my heart,"What the f*ck? It's your problem, not mine, pay peanut, get monkey lah! Besides who do you think you are? Please go and stand in front of the mirror and put another mirror behind you as well, don't you think your face and your b*acks*d* looks very similar?"
I don't want to offer her for extra miles, just as simple as because she is 2 head snake, if it's other people I'll be happily said,"Oklah, no worries let me help you to do magic.."
She even simply didn't want to discuss the whole project and asked my opinion about the result that she needs, and I know very well, dealing with her no need to be so nice, giving an advice without being asked, she will not appreaciate the things that you do extra for her, so what for I do that for her?
Bloody snake, make my blood boil, even until now, I still look like "cacing kepanasan" walking up and down, going around, in and out of the office.
I've never been so angry and agitated in my life before, I can feel the heat from whole of my body, the worse is my head *sigh*
Just now I felt like taking taxi to the office, because I would speed when I'm angry, but I tried to calm my self down before I started the engine, putting my fave cd, and singing along together, deep breathing, but still couldn't work *sigh*
I only tried to remind my self,"C'mon flo, this is Singapore, Speeding is an offence, don't let you appear in the newspaper because of speeding...it's not going to be funny..."
Thinking of doing detour to Tuas then cool off in Raffles Marina, but cancelled, remembering as long as I'm still on the steering wheel, the chance of speeding still there *blush*
And tonite I'm going to have an exam, if I did bad , you know lah the cause *nyari kambing hitam*

Edannnnn

Last week or the week bafore last week, I was flipping thru the TV channel (yeah this is my hobby, channel surfing *grinned*, unless my dad is sitting next to me, I'll not dare to do that *takut*, otherwise I like to channel surf *muka jail*), then I was stuck on channel 8, 9 pm week days (eh will I get endorsement or not by promoting them? wakkakakkka..), Love Concierge..
In that episode they are on their wedding day, doing photo shoot, but then when it was time to take 1 last photograph, then the husband fleed back to the office, coz he said,"Job is more important than anything..." then left everybody stunned...
Remember about 2 of my best friends are goin' to get married, while I was worrying about the timing might clash to each other, as both are equally important to me, one is best friend from uni, going to get married in Jakarta while the other one is high school best friend, going to get married in Bali? At the end the wedding date is only 1 week apart *lega*
Nah yesterday afternoon suddenly I received sms from my high school best friend, saying,"S wedding is on what date?"
Being quite sometime haven't got chance to talk to her live (she becomes bloody workaholic now, much worse than me *nyengir*), so I grabbed the phone and dial her number, and we talked.
I found out that she has to attend a sales conference in France on 11 to 17 of June *shocked*, while her wedding is on the 18. She said this conference is very important for her, can't be missed, die die she has to attend *gubraks*
I said,"Lo gila, everything has already been fixed,now here you are with a bloody sales conference?"
She said,"If i missed this, it's going to be a chaotic for my company.."
I nearly fainted hearing that news....I tought such thing only happened in th drama, like the love concierge above, and only done by a man, but this is very real..done by my own best friend? My very own friend who you walked back from school with, every day for 3 years? The friend that you share most of your life's stories with even though she was in Canada and I was in Jakarta, and later moved to Sydney but still continued called each other?
She's crazy or what? But 1 thing that really touches me a lot is she asked me first before she make any changes on her wedding date, coz she knew that my other best friend is going to get married somewhere near her wedding date *terharu*
But....did she consult her husband to be and her dad before she called me? *worry*
Anyway she is unstoppable girl, nothing can stop her from doing the thing she wants....
Lastly, middle of the nite I received her sms,"Suk, please don't make any reservation for your Bali flight, I'm still trying very hard to get other date".
Gubrakssss........

Nunik...The Story Continues...

On Saturday evening, I arrived at home to find Nunik is doing her chores, handwashing my clothes in the bathroom *apa siyyy..*
what was she trying to prove huh? Cari muka? In her working history, she always does the washing in the morning, so it really makes me more disgusted towards her..
Some more she still dare to talk to me,"Mmm anu ma'am, jadi bhnya ma'am semuanya kekecilan?"
Duh...apa sihhh....udah deh gag usah dibahas.., inside my heart,"Kalo kekecilan semua, sekarang gue pake apa donk? mangkok dipakein tali rafia apeeee?" *sebel*
I just lazily said,"Ho'oh"
From then onwards I just tried to erase her existence in my house lah, I turned her to invisible mode, even though she's around *sigh*
Oh ya, yesterday suddenly my mom told me,"Eh koq si nunik 2 hari belakangan ini kerjanya jadi tambah rapi dan rajin ya?"
Owwwww...she scared to be sent back home ar....
If only my mom knew what was happening, it's going to be bigger than nuclear war, but Nunik still lucky having me as the employer, I'm not that type of person who can easily blurted out all her misbehaviours though, coz I still don't know what is my heart made from..*urut dada*
Then suddenly I have a bright idea, remember my posting a few days ago about the "3 diva Concerts"?
It's going to be killing 2 birds in 1 stone, just tell my parents I need to send her back to Indonesia for good, meanwhile I go for my concert on flight X, and I bought her a one way ticket by flight Y *muka jail*

Hmmmm

I've been struggling whether to post this story or not, soalnya agak2 vulgar...sampe kejadian tadi pagi, weleh..gue dah gak tahan deh..jadi gue post..sori yaks agak vulgar...
Beberapa minggu belakangan gue berasa koq bh gue makin kecil yah? *gubraks*
Dan gue berpikir," Masa sih....." *isi sendiri deh yaa...*
Tapi mana mungkin...lah wong berat badan turun koq...trus gue curiga donk, jangan2 Nunik nyuci pake mesin cuci, trus minggu lalu gue nanya,"Nik, kamu nyuci bh saya pake mesin cuci?"
Nunik,"Gak ma'am, saya cuci pake tangan, emang kenapa?"

Gue masih gak puas ,"Kok jadi sempit sih?
Nunik,"Loh gak tau yah ma'am, saya cuci pake tangan koq.."
Mustinye die jawab gini kali ye,"Ma'am tambah gede kali?" wakakkakaka.....
Trus tadi pagi nih, gue berasa eh koq tambah sempit lagi sih...trusan gue ngeliat permukaannya agak2 rusak geto...dan kayak ada partikel2 kecil nempel, yang gue yakin itu dari celana pendek guwe, trus gue penasaran gue nanya lagi deh,"Nik, kamu nyuci bh saya pake mesin cuci ya?"
Her,"Gak, ma'am saya cuci pake tangan kok..emang kenapa?"
Gue,"Koq jadi tambah kecil sih? Lagian koq jadi bersemot, trus ada kaya bintik2 dari celana pendek saya?"
Her,"Gak ma'am saya cuci pake tangan...sumpah deh..."

War of the Century (Nunik vs My Mom)

I think tis is the most wanted stories from my blog *pe de*
I've never told my mom about all Nunik minus attitude that I've encoutered so far, because of:
1. I want to compare my judgement and other people judgement about her
2. I don't want to create negative impression from my mom towards Nunik, before everything get started.
Now I got a headache from war of the century, Nunik try to play politic by using my words against my mom command, she always quote,"Ma'am yang nyuruh saya begitu kok" and sometimes when my mom told her to use the household equipment because it's very expensive, then the next day nunik will check with me,"Ma'am anu itu harganya berapa ya?" when I told her the price, she will said,"Kata ibu ma'am kok bla..bla..bla.."
Yeah my mom inflate the price to high..wakakkakakkaa....
Arrrrghhhhhhh..... stupid maid, doesn't she understand, when my mom come over, means that she has to listen to my mom? Or should I tell her direct," Eh dengerin kata ibu, jangan membantah?"
Or she can't wait to go home till August that's why she acts like that *sigh*
No need to tell the detail of everything lah ya...but in conclusion, what I do feel about Nunik match with my mom's list, but I dare not tell my mom,"Kok sama yah ma?". YEah, she's the great pretender....(Elvis Presley donks? wakkakakakka...), agak kurang ajar (she dares to ask other maid," Kamu dari Indonesia ya?" while accompanying my mom to the market, and asks unnecessary things that a maid shouldn't ask to the employer)...dan lihai....
Just because I've already learned to accept her as what she is, and love her with my heart and soul *hoeekkkk*, and not to complaint about her behaviours anymore, coz I don't have a heart to fire her anyway...
Udah kayak telenovela dehhhh ......duhhh pusinggggg....
Happy week end yah everyone....

Kaderisasi

Last school holiday, my god sista, was helping me in the office...
How she became my god sista? it was started by working part time in my place during school holiday, and from so many part timers that I have, she's the one with a very good attitude, quite kiasi (read = perfectionist) towards work , just like me...*smile*
So I decided to make her my little sista, she's quite cute though...
Go back to the original story...as now I play with my partner in crime most of the time, so my little sista also play with her...so you can imagine 17 years old innocent girl, play with 2 trisakti graduates and one of the is me *blush*, meanwhile the other one is more hips...wakakakkakakkaka....
She startsto end her sentences with "ya" as what usually indonesian does..wakakakka...and talks with Indonesian English tone, learn all the slangs...*sigh*
And now she's back to school, hopefully she doesn't have problems with her English..wakakkakaka....
Eh this morning I received sms from my friend, saying,"Eh ada konser 3 diva loh tgl 26 Jan, TT Dj, Kridayanti dan Ruth"
Jreng....suddenly I really want to go back and watch, but then it's on Thursday, and I only can spend 1 nite there as it's going to be Chinese New Year....rugi atuhh...*kiasu*
If I went back, means I only have 3 more free fiscals to spend, where I still have 2 weddings to attend and 2 hen parties to arrange *sigh*
I also don't know how to tell my parents...they're going to slaughter me for sure if they know I go back only to watch the concert *sigh*
Any ideas?
Meanwhile...the thinking process still continues...

Partner in Crime

Finally...she's back *yipeeee*
Last nite met up with her, spent a few hours with her, made my world become colourful again....With her I laugh until I got stomach ache, even till now my stomach still sore because of the laugh
Hopefully she'll stay long in Singapore *pray*
She looks more pretty and glowing *envy*
So I also need a break to Jakarta I guess *nyengir*
I need to arrange 2 hen parties before June though *nyari alesan*
So I must be back at least once or twice *alesannya tambah kuat*

Can Not Tahan

It's been quite sometime I haven't been disappeared from Singapore *sad*, let me count, my last dissapearance was on August last year, 5 months in Singapore wow...*sigh*
I think I can not tahan already, meanwhile this Harpitnas and Chinese New Year doesn't seems to be able to go anywhere as well, I've tried hinting to my parents though to go holiday together, but they said they don't want to go anywhere *sigh*
Meanwhile, my partner in crime (read:khaki) is in Jakarta, visiting her husband, since 3 weeks ago, made me become more bored *sigh*...but at least we still keep in touch whether by phone or sms....just reading her sms, could make me burst into laughter...so you should be able to imagine if you meet her in person *grinned*
But she should be back today *horaaayy*
Anyway, I've told my self, please persevere lah for a few more months, but when I check the calendar, the next public holiday after Chinese New Year will be on April *gulps*
Alamak, can I tahan until so long? All works no play made me a dull girl *worried*
Happy Idul Adha yah for youe who celebrates....mbok ya kirim2 daging kambingnya (eh dimasak loh ya, bukan mentah...kalo mentah mah di sini juga buanyak...) ke sini...

Tough Friday

Most people would say TGIF, but yet yesterday was a tough day for me *sigh*
Started with morning meeting with that two face snake, my day became very dark.
It's hard to deal with small fly who just got a bit of power...it made her become very demanding and bossy *deep sigh*
During the meeting I kept on telling my self to cool down, just see her as a stack of money who's talking to me (remember the Disney cartoon? Nah I tried to imagine that). Anyway I only do this in the name of money lah....
Then I tried to cool down by going to Yoga Class, to find ut that the usual Yoga instructor had been replaced with another instructor, that made the class became a military training instead of Yoga *sigh*
Until now my whole body still in pain, especially when I move around...
Afternoon still had to deal with new supplier, that always said can be done, but when the actual things came, then he said can not....
What a tough day...
Anyway Happy week end everyone, hope you'll enjoy your week end lah ya *muachhhhh*

School

A few days ago I had a meeting with 1 of the polytechnic in Singapore, talking about some projects.
When I was there, I saw a lot of student scattered around the campus, then I felt so peaceful, and I really longed for becoming a student again.
But afer seeing them seating on the bench, and doing their homework, suddenly a bell rang inside my mind, and I changed my thought," become a student again? thanks lah ya, but not thanks.."
And I'd been wondering how could I spend so much time for going to school before, let me count:
- play group 1 year,
- kindergarden 2 years,
- primary school 6 years,
- secondary 3 years,
- senior high 3 years,
- university 4 years,
- postgrad 2 years.
Total 21 years in school? oh my God... not again.....
I supposed to become an Industrial Engineer or a fund manager, as I was specialised in funds management study for my master degree, but yet, look at me now, I'm a fun manager, yupe I manage fun *grin*
The moral of story, the longer time you spent your life in school, the more fun you;re going to be *gak nyambung*
Doesn't it sound pretty encouraging for those who are lazy to study? *wicked smile*

In Memoriam

Today I would like to dedicate this posting to my friend, whom I only communicated with smile, without words, but often went to the movies together.
It's been 2 years since we'd received the shocked news of your death.
Still clear in my mind, watching you practising your skill in flaring together with Cumi, so much noise that both you made till your neighbour went crazy.
Bought the Ferrero Rocher together and wrote a sorry card, put at her door.
Waiting for her to pick up the card and chocolates, but yet after 3 days it was still there, so we decided to eat the chocolates ourselves....
I've already forgotten what's the taste of midori after you're gone, but yet you'll always live in our heart....
Mike where ever you are now, we miss you very much....
Rest in peace my friend..
