Do you believe in friendship? I did, but not so much now.
As I grow old (yeah finally I admit now not grow up anymore, but grow old instead *blush*) I become a pathetic person.
What's the sh*t about friendship? I always wonder where all the people whom I used to call "my best friend" go to?
Everybody seems too busy with their life, and they are afraid of getting involved with my life...they also have their own family to take care now...
And some of the people who I call friend even take the friendship for granted. Some of them thought since they're my friend, so they can do this or that to me.
There is another category of friends again, which "Okay, we are friend, just simply because I am XXXX, I have XXXXX, etc....
I even keep on reminding myself "Trust nobody, but my self, not even your parents, siblings, friends, etc...at the end of the day you still have to face the consequences by yourself, nobody can help you"
Now I could understand why all the famous people, started to use drugs, it's just simply the last category of my reason. They feel lonely, just because they feel some people are not sincere to get close to them...
Am I going to that direction?

Arini, Masih ada Kereta yang akan lewat

That's Garin Nugroho's movie title is very catchy....
The meaning is Arini (the name if a person), there would be another train arriving.
I didn't watch this movie, but from the title, may be it tries to say that if you miss something, there will be another time to make it.
But in my opinion, even though there would be another train arriving, it would certainly be a different experience if you took the other train instead.... Agree?

Indonesian Geto loh

Last nite, having dinner with my best friend from Jakarta, plus my partner in crime and her husband which just moved into Singapore (yay finally got new victim, welcome to the club).

We were talking about how far her husband has been adapting so far, whether he has started to speak Singlish, which replied by him" Touch wood lah yauuuuu..."

I said it took me 3 years to get Singlish flowing into my bloodstream, and let's see how long will he be able to resist, as for the wife, she more or less Singlish by the middle of her 1st year here *winks*

Then of course, as a good team mate, we always want to welcome a new comer to feel as comfortable as possible in Singapore *wicked smile* So we started to speak Singlish *blush*

After dinner, i sent everyone of them, and just on the way out from my carp park lot, suddenly the husband shouted,"Eh Flo, it's No Entry you know!"

I said,"Aiyah, Indonesian mah...."

His wife,"Yes...we do not understand English, if only they had written "Dilarang Masuk" then Flona won't go to that direction.

Morale of the story: For where two or three Indonesian come together, there would be a lots of histeria and fun ;P

Have a good week end everyone....

Gerimis Mengundang

This morning was raining, I was very reluctant to get out from my bed, remembering yesterday I'd raced around Singapore *sigh* But have no other choice, I have to go to the office *deep sigh*

Lazy to drive, brain jammed, I went down, realising that I didn't bring the umbrella with me. Being dumb from my tiredness, I just dialled a number to get a cab, and the other party,"Sorry this is not a cab company" *gubraks*

I felt bad and said,"oopss..I'm very sorry..." then hung up the phone.

I saw a lots of taxi outside, but rain, I walked to the bus stop and tried to flag a taxi. Got one, the driver quite cute *excited* but he spoke chinese to me, despite of I greeted him in English when I got in Good morning!".

FYI I greeted him is not because of he's cute okay...it's simply because I'm very polite *blush* anyway, cute guy...that's a rare things or could be says cute guys are going to extinct in Singapore, if could find, whether they're foreigner, or just simply womaniser or the one who is very narcistic (sorry if I offended anybody, but anyway that's the true fact). It's not like in Jakarta, where I could find cute guy every where, starting from the unpolished one (in Trisakti University), or the already polished with a very good finishing, everywhere in the mall *sigh*

Being challenged, I also answered him in Chinese. Then I began sms-ing my friends, and of course you can imagine what did I write in the sms *wink* So when got reply I smiled, then sent again etc...I supposed having the passenger smiling all the way at the back of taxi while sms-ing is quite common for taxi driver.

Nearest to my office he asked which part of the road my office is, and I told him the way, then he asked again (of course all the conversation were in Chinese, but I don't know how to write han yu pin yin, so i just wrote in English lah ya...) ,"You are not local, are you?"

I answered,"Nope"

He,"I thought so, because of your pronounciation.Are you from Hongkong?" *gubraks*

I said,"Nope, you guess?"

He gave up, I said,"I'm Indonesian".

Then arriving in the destination, I asked him to drop me on the side entrance, but he was very concern, he said,"But it's raining.."

I answered,"It's okay, only a bit..."

He said,"Ok then, please be carefull, it's slippery..."

Oh My God, so sweet huh?..too bad I didn't asked his number *sigh*

Morale of the story: When you see a good catch, please get the phone number immediately...

F1 Driver

This morning I had to wake up early as I had to pick up my best friend from Jakarta. Her flight arrived 8.55 *sigh*

But with a very high spirit, meeting her geto loh....I woke up early donk *smile sweetly* Actually she is on company duty, so last night she insisted not to be picked up from the airport. I couldn't wait to see her, so I picked her up *blush*

She came with her colleague, which happened to be our Junior back in Trisakti before. Even though at the end I shot all the way to Tuas, they had to submit their product sample to PSB in Tuas and after that dropped them at their hotel in town. I did it, in the name of friendship *caelah*

She commented something,"Eh Flo, elo di sini kok nyetirnya sangat patuh dan taat sesuai dengan tata tertib mengemudi ya?"

I said,"Lo mao dapet surat cintah dari Traffic Police ape? kalo ganteng sih kaga ape2"

And FYI, everytime I drive here in Singapore I have to keep on reminding my self,"Flona, remember this is Singapore, please drive carefully..."

Liposuction

I did liposuction on Saturday nite *wicked smile* I performed a liposuction (on the pork belly *pardon me*) to be exact.

Of course lah..if I did liposuction, then I became famous, how? *nyengir* Even though wothout liposuction I've been famous already *pe de*

By the way, back o liposuction..when I performed it on the pork belly, I started ot think whether that poor pig was died of animal slaughter or heart attack ya? Remembering so much fat that I retrieved from it *sigh*

Anyway I supposed to buy pork loin to make roast pork, but I bought the belly instead, as it looked quite similar, and the loin had not been available for th elast 3 days *sigh* I've taken the photo of the result, not too bad though...but I don't know how to post the recipes, because when I cooked, I just need to know the basic ingredients, and I tend to leave the measurement based on my feelings....

Morale of the story: poor piggy :P

Umbrella - Rihanna

I don't have any bad feelings or whatever towards her. But I just feel weird suddenly she become famous by singing the songs by the title of Umbrella.
Don't tell me dulu dia bekas ojek payung jangan-jangan? *cemas*

Ngitung Kancing

Phrase itu sangat familiar di kuping kan? Terutama kalo lagi ulangan yang tipenya multiple choice ato yes or No questions.

Tapi gak hanya sebatas ulangan saja kata sakti itu bisa diimplikasikan *caelah bahasa guwe cuit cuit..* Kadang dalam menghadapi pilihan yang sulit, temen2 gokil kita suka memakai kata sakti itu,"Halah...udah itung kancing ajah.."

Apakah dalam mengambil sebuah keputusan itu bener2 as simple as ngitung kancing? Coba bayangin, berapapun kancingnya, kalo kita mulai dengan iya, nggak, iya, nggak, ...dst....trus setelah dapat hasil akhir, kita balik itungannya mulai dengan nggak, iya, nggak, iya...dst Toh hasilnya tetep aja nihil.

Jadi gimane donks? baju yang gue pake sekarang ajah gak ada kancingnya....sementara masalah yang nunggu pemecahan dari gue makin lama makin bertumpuk.

Alangkah bahagianya gue kalo gue masih senekat dulu.....ternyata usia membuat tingkat kenekatan menurun *sigh*

Moral of the story: kalo pake baju yang ada kancingnya, jangan lupa ngancing yak *gak nyambung* hihihiihihi....

Weird

I am down with the flu for the past 1 week. I saw my GP on Monday, and she've never tired of asking me whether I could take MC, regardless she knows my boss is me, and I would never ever take any MC at all *kekeuh*

I told her not too worry, I wouldn't force my self to work hard in the office *cross finger*, and she said ok, and gave me a few types of medicines, a powerful antibiotics, steroid for my runny nose (he he he...doping yak...), and 1 type of flu medicine for morning, it won't cause drowsiness, and another type taken in the night, as it will cause drowsiness, and of course cough syrups.

Well...yesterday nite, I was having early dinner around 7, and I took the medicine straight away. Weirdly, I was still clicking my mouse, playing online game till 1 am in the morning without feeling sleepy at all...

So...where is the faulty?

Morale of the story: kerusakan bukan pada pesawat televisi anda booo...have a nice week end every one *hugs*

Memory

When I was driving and listening to the radio on the way to the office, they are playing all those cheery themes of songs, which would charge you up in the morning and make you feel better and have a bright day.

It made my memory suddenly played back the old good times, during my teenage years, when I stayed over in my grandma's house on week days, and I had to go to school. I used to stay in my grandma's room, on my auntie's bed, to be exact, meanwhile my auntie forced to sleep in the next room with another auntie *grins*

By the time the alarm sounds, I would be still lazy to open my eyes, and my grandma would wake me up with full of love, meanwhile I took my own sweet time to be awake. But still Grandma was very patient and lovings towards me.

By the time I open my eyes, I would reach out my hand to the top of my head to switch on the radio on my grandma's desk (read as "tangan gue mulai grepe2 ke atas kepala gue nyari tombol buat nyalain radio), and the channel, of course 102.3 FM (yes that time Prambors was still in this frequency).

During that time from 5am to 6 am they will play the continuous energising music, that will make you fully wake up. So I tuned in to that radio, turned the volume up and dancing passed my grandma all the way to the bathroom, singing, and moving to the rhythm of the music even when I was munching my breakfast.

FYI all these precious moment couldn't be done at my home, let alone playing msic in the very early morning, even talk with my normal tone in the morning is also forbid my mom, she said,"Hush..you father still sleeping, don't make noise!!!!!!"

Then during the journey to school I would fight over the radio channel with my beloved driver, which of course most of the time I won, but sometime I just let my driver to tune into his channel, once in a blue moon la.....

With all those sweet memories playing in my minds, without knowing suddenly the tears had started to flow down from my eyes...Ooopss..and my make up damage *teteup*

Even though Grandma had passed away quite sometimes back but she is the best grandma in the world. And for uncle driver, where ever you are, I miss you too...
