Top news of the year, I proudly present the news that I argued with the client *puas*
&%$##%%## The things already started since a few days ago but the exact heat started from yesterday evening, that bloody *ssh*l* has already tried to squeeze the price, but I just gave the lowest that I could...
Then finally she said the job went to my competitor, okaylah...no big deal, sometimes you lose, but most of the time have to win, rite? Suddenly yesterday evening she called said that the artwork had been ready to be collected, and tried to squeeze the price...I was quite surprise, coz I thought the competitor had won the job...but after a careful calculation, I reduced a bit, but then her superior called in said that the management really appreciates our company service very much, that's why even though we are a bit more expensive but they still want us to do the job, then she asked whether I could give her further discount, which after hearing what she'd said, so I did so lah....
When I took the artwork from that bloody *ssh*l*, she started spoke to me in Chinese which approximately like," I can't understand why my management want to give this job to you. Your price has already indeed higher than other, but yet, they still choose you. If for me, I will give tha job to the other party".
I heated up, but yet, customer is king, can't argue, I just smiled...then artwork got problem *again* some of the files couldn't be opened, so this morning went back to her office to get the new cd, then she started again,"Why my management want to giveyou this job ar? you're more expensive what?"
Me,"Well, I give you back the cd lah, you take and give it to the other party..."
She,"No it's not like that, I just can't understand loh.."
Me,"Well, that's show your management value our company service towards your company, that's why they want us to do that job".
She shut her bloody mouth up....and then suddenly jreng...my quotation and the artwork doesn't match, the artwork exceeded the number of pages that I quoted. And that bloody dog said," I have shown you the artwork before what, and you said that it's 16 pp plus 4, and I reconfirm with you and you said yes! And now you're telling me it's 20 pp plus 4?"
Bloody hell...I was really hot, felt like slapping her bloody face...luckily the quotation I put 16 pp plus 4...she's so bloody unproffessional....still have the cheat to tell me that she did show the artwork to me before, and even sent it thru email...bah....I have never deleted my business correspondent since the day I started this business, what is she trying to do huh? Become a bloody clown? I can't bloody understand that this type of conduct could be tolerated by the company, asking for quotation, like buying ikan bilis in the market *sigh*

Singing Test
As per expected, I didn't perform well for my last week test *sigh* Bloody idiotic me, everytime I heard the word "test" I will go haywire. So usually I try my best to take the course without test *wicked smile* Anyway, I still have some As, but have 1 part B minus as well *sad*.
She write in the report card,"
Even my teacher said, next time I'll tell you examination date, but I'll assess you on another date...So good huh?
She write in the report card,"
Flona is a very good student, but very shy (gila jo, gue? shy? *pingsan* wakakkakkakaka...eh iyaa gue itu orangnya shy loh, bener deh...tapi kalo lagi gila bisa shameless *blus*) and concious about her self, her skill has already improved a lot fro the first time she joins the class, her performace is good, but can be better, she just need to be confident in certain part, and try to "fine tune" herself."
Even my teacher said, next time I'll tell you examination date, but I'll assess you on another date...So good huh?

Japanese Class
I've been longing to join Japanese Class since a long time ago, but yet the strong urge only started about 2 years ago. I was recommended by my Japanese friend who;s working in the embassy here, in Singapore to only join that particular Japanese class.
My first enquiries, I was too late for the class, they only open for january intake, so have to wait for the following year, and at the end of that year I was very bloody lazy to register *grin* until end of last year, I told myself not waste my life by only doing stupid work, at least try to learn something new lah...so then I force my self to register, and here I am now with some new language confusion, after got mixed up betweeen Chinese and English (since I was in Sydney, everytime when I tried to speak Chinese, my brains is full of english *sigh* and when I tried to speak my Chinese Dialect, then my brain will be full of Mandarin *sigh*), losing my English speaking ability (now I speak very Singlish, sometime to the extend Inglish (=Indonesian English)*sigh*).
My language confusion is even deeper by the influence of my Japanese flatmate in Sydney, as she always try to be funny by speaking English with her Japanese Accent (She can speak English quite well for Japanese lah...She's been in Australia for about 3 years I guess...and 2 years in US before that), so some words like "Cat" in Japanese should be "Neko" but inside my mind is always "Kato" *blush* wakakkakakakka.....
Learning new language, in this case, Japanese, it's quite a frustating experience for me, because it's just simply totally new for me, not like Chinese, which is not so new, besides it's a quite easy to pick up language, there is no tenses, now plurals, and the structure is quite similar with Indonesian, the only problem is the right intonation when I pronounce a word...
On the other hand, Japanese, new vocabs *sigh* lots of particles (this one is really very tough), the sentence structure *sigh*, tenses problems *sigh* , it's really frustating when you're old, you're not as sharp as before when you learn something new...sometimes I feel lost...
Yesterday before class I was trying very hard to do my homewwork, but nothing come up in my mind, everything blanks...felt like crying and quitting, but I just told my self,"Try to go to class first lah...see how.." but it's a quite demoralising experience, learning new language, it's not about logic like when you learn computer, but everything has to be memorised *sigh*
So with all the confusions, I think I've become Confucious...

Irritabel Bowel Syndrome
That's the so called trendy name for difficulties to do your nature call (poopping). I have this problems since I was still a little kids, a lots of things I have tried, but IBS (what I called in short) loves me very much *blush*
I always envy people who can easily do their nature call, for example my Japanese flatmate in Sydney. Everytime we go to buffet restaurant, she can just simply said,"Flo, please wait a moment..." with that wicked smile...went to the toilet, to empty her stomach by doing nature call and came back to eat some more *sigh*
I've tried so many things, like Larutan cap Kaki5 3, Adem Sari, Drinking lotsa water, eats more veggies, or even to the extend taking a chinese herbal tea, whose people said there are 24 kinds of herbs inside to clean your colon, so after taking that tea, you'll get a light diarrhea, but when I took that one, not even once I go to the toilet *sigh*
Another one that quite costly is, there is this restaurant called Imperial Herbal Restaurant, it's a Chinese Restaurant, which hides in Metropole Hotel (not Hongkong one ya, that one is the source of SARS wakakakka....), Singapore. All the food in that restaurant is made from Chinese Herbal thingy, that said good for your health, tastes like normal food, no scary smells at all like the Chinese Herbs. One of the menu that said good for my problems, I forgot the name, but when you said,"Number 1, please", they will know what you mean, coz in the menu it's number 1 lah *grins* Also doesn't work for me *blush* But I still do like that restaurant though..they serve good food...and supposedly healthy lah...
So far the things that really works for me is only the menu in Crystal Jade Kitchen, number 100, so whenever I feel desperate, I just go to Crystal Jade Kitchen and order that one...and for sure if I went there woth no certain purpose, I'll definitely order number 100 as well, that's my faves *grin*
What trigger me to write this vulgar stories of me is just because, yesterday I went to have lunch in Macau Express (it was showed in the TV a few days ago, about this cafe, and Hongkong Cafe that failed me twice), and I was interested in the drinks that said can help people for this type of problems. When I ordered that drink inside my heart I said," If it's not working, I'll sue them".
True enough ladies and gentlemaen,, it's not working..*sigh* I think if I've tried since a long time ago to sue people for false ads, I'd become a multi billionaire *wicked smile*
Eh I've mentioned so many brands, above, I hope I could get any endorsement from some of them wakakkakakakaka
Before everybody ask me to post photos (again), here is my waffles photo *senyum manis*

S.O.S
Good morning Singapore....Yeah very bloody early though, just past midnite indeed, and I just came back from Cold Storage Holland Village, to buy baking powder. My godsista supposed to come to my place tomorrow, so I was preparing waffle for her breakfast tomorrow. Suddenly I realised, ooopsss..no baking powder, so I rushed to 24 hours supermarket to get that baking powder, with a short and t-shirt *cuek kabeh*
Interesting story nih, the reason why I have to die die make this waffle tonite, is because when I was in HK, I visited strawberry cafe, and ordered strawberry waffle, then I took photo, then sent it to my godsista. She's so crazy about strawberry, so I promised her to make her one when I come back....So I have already bought strawberry syrup for the waffle, and I tought I still have some fresh strawberry left inside the fridge (I haven't eaten at all since I bought, but yet every time I opened my fridge the strawberry getting lesser, so you know lah who did it, riteeeeee?) But then just now after I finished making the batter, I opened to fridge to keep my batter, I found that Jreeengggg......no more strawberry left.....weleh Nunik...nunik...old habits die hard yeeeeee.....*narik napas*
That's me, when basic instinct come, so no matter what time, I'll do it, besides, remember, I bake cakes for stress reliever....
Another SOS called on me, happened on Thursday nite, passing by my bar counter, I saw Bailey's was laying there try to tempt me *ngelirik Jimmy*, but it's a huge bottle that I just got from my trip last week, of course I didn't have a heart to open that big bottle.
Then my basic instinct came in *jail mode on*, I made milk from Anlene milk powder (I bought it tought that I need to drink milk for my calcium banking, but anyway I'm lactose intolerant, so I gave it up), then pour it over ice, plus Kahlua, hopla...there it goes new cocktail creation by me, taste likes Bailey's though *nyengir*
Meanwhile I need to go to sleep now lah...only left a few hours to sleep, need to get up early, lotsa work to do *sigh*
Happy week end everyone....

Half Alive
Yesterday was sooo frustating, doing 1 stupid job, that made me stressed the whole day, until I couldn't do anything else other than wait and stress, even though most of the time I was hanging out in Orchard *sigh*
I just can't understand, why all those stupid people outside, especially those in retail business, like to do things in last minutes. I know that their promotion is very bloody damn time sensitive, and they have a very tight schedule, but yet they want something much more than bloody perfect, can't make up their mind even though it's reaching the last stage *sigh*
At the end, I'm the one who suffer, because I hold a strong believe that service is all about commitment, I always try my best if I could, to deliver my service before schedule. That's why I always feel tired coz my life is always on the run *sounds like Esso convenient stores, huh? wkakakaka*
Anyway yesterday, my client called said the design is ready, but when I went to the film caster (they have to make positive film before proceed to print), they couldn't open the file *panick* Have to wait so long also for them to open the files, coz it's so bloody huge...then I called back my client, and they said, they need time, coz the design department is in Malaysia, and they have to FTP the file, which takes hours...so I hung out in Orchard yesterday, with an unpeaceful mind lah, can't sit down peacefully, no appetite to shop also, and can't call anybody down to accompany me sit in the cafe (before hand, my previous partner in crime always hung out in Orchard, coz she was a merchandiser and marketing for her company, but she'd gone back to Indonesia though, then after that I have a friend who's working as one of credit card manager which office is in Orchard, so whenever I'm in orchard, just called him, then he'd accompany me for coffee...but now I have nobody *cried*), doing my japanese homework.
Then the file was ready just after I finished my japanes class, then I collected then sent to the film caster, waited again whether this time all the files could be succesfully opened or not, my heart of course beat very fast..
Reached home, tired, but couldn't sleep, watched TV, American Next Top model, called friends. Then continued with playing game, when I'm in a very deep stress, I always play game until tired, but still don't want to give up...Finally gave up around 1.30, tried to sleep, but gastric pain, until I don't know what time *sigh*
Now I just came back from meeting with client and had lunch appointment with my cousin *sigh* What a life...

Tergoda
Posting in Indonesian language is sooo nice *sigh* So now I'm temtep to post in Indonesian instead of English, but then I've promised my self since the first time I started my blog that I'll write my blog in English.
The reason is just because I'm losing my pronounciation, and I don't want to lose my writing ability also *sigh* I'm in dillema, writing in Indo is so much easier for me to express all my feeling, especially those dangdut language *nyengir*
So how?

Story 1
I supposed to have singing test today, but I asked my teacher to postpone the test to next week, because my throat is a bit sore. So my teacher said,"Okay, let's practice for your test next week".
After my lesson finished, she said,"Flo, have you been practising lately?
Me,"Nope..."
My teacher,"So far this is your best performance, if you took you test today, I would have given you straight A for all the test".
Oh my God, what a waste *sigh* but I didn't ask her to just take today performance as a test, I'm a fair and square person lah...
Story 2
Waiting for delivery tonite, I decided to go to driving range to practice my swing. The one that occupied the space behind me, is quite cute though *sigh* but he was accompanied by another uncle *sigh again*, may be business partner or what, i'm not too sure...
Anyway I played quite bad today *sigh again*, but everytime I played beautifully, I heard somebody from my back said,"Wow, what a good shot..."
I didn't realise, until, I feel,"Eh is he talking to me or who?"
he couldn't be talking to his friend, because he always said that sentence when I had a good shot, and I tried to see whether he or his friend was hitting the ball or not, the fact is they were not...anyway...I'm always late lah as usual *telmi banget*...
I don't really care to response, I just gave him a glance of smile, then I faster finished my balls, then dissapeared...no mood tonite lah...besides he's not alone...
What a waste *sigh*

CCTV
Remember my nosy neighbour in the office? That auntie and uncle? Their unit actually located next to my unit, and also across that unit. And then sometimes before Chinese New Year they also took over the unit exactly across my unit (nah loh..banyak unit, bingung kan? pegangan..)
When they renovated the new unit, practically that bloody uncle had to supervise the renovation, and at that point of time also my office was bloody busy, so we had to open our door widely, which we rarely did. On one of those day just when I came back from the toilet that bloody uncle purposedly talked very loud to the renovation contractor in Chinese with a very proud tone, which in English will sounds like,"Sooner or later I'll take over the whole unit in second floor!"
Iiiihhhh...apa sihhhh.....norjik deh tuh orang...inside my heart,"Go ahead conquer the whole second floor, but you'll not be able to take over mine, unless I move to bigger place, that take my left over lah..." *sigh*
And then...they also installed CCTV, the most ridiculous things, the CCTV for the new unit was installed just right in front of my unit *apa sihhhhh....norjik berat deg si oom ituw*
After Chinese New Year Holiday, when my staff came back to work, he asked me,"Ma'am are we installing the CCTV?"
I said,"Oh no, that one belong to that bloody neighbour".
He said,"Wow, they're so style ar?"
I said,"Ya loh, I think the auntie, want to see what outfit that I wear every day, so that she can copy my style exactly. Eh by the way everytime you're entering our office, don't forget to turn your hear to the camera, smile, and SHOW YOUR MIDDLE FINGER ya!" Wakakakkakakakkakakkakaka......
About 2 weeks ago, something happened, they paste the photo printed from their CCTV recording, somebody reaching their pineapple (they're hanging something like pineapple lantern outside their office), and they write,"The person in the photo please report to our office by 3 pm to be responsible of what you do..."
Iiih....so kampong behaviour ya? Don't you think so? Never had a CCTV before meh?
When they renovated the new unit, practically that bloody uncle had to supervise the renovation, and at that point of time also my office was bloody busy, so we had to open our door widely, which we rarely did. On one of those day just when I came back from the toilet that bloody uncle purposedly talked very loud to the renovation contractor in Chinese with a very proud tone, which in English will sounds like,"Sooner or later I'll take over the whole unit in second floor!"
Iiiihhhh...apa sihhhh.....norjik deh tuh orang...inside my heart,"Go ahead conquer the whole second floor, but you'll not be able to take over mine, unless I move to bigger place, that take my left over lah..." *sigh*
And then...they also installed CCTV, the most ridiculous things, the CCTV for the new unit was installed just right in front of my unit *apa sihhhhh....norjik berat deg si oom ituw*
After Chinese New Year Holiday, when my staff came back to work, he asked me,"Ma'am are we installing the CCTV?"
I said,"Oh no, that one belong to that bloody neighbour".
He said,"Wow, they're so style ar?"
I said,"Ya loh, I think the auntie, want to see what outfit that I wear every day, so that she can copy my style exactly. Eh by the way everytime you're entering our office, don't forget to turn your hear to the camera, smile, and SHOW YOUR MIDDLE FINGER ya!" Wakakakkakakakkakakkakaka......

I don't know why, every time I have business lunch, I will do it in Crystal Jade...even if I went out with friends or family, when we felt like eating chinese food, the choice would fall to Crystal Jade as well *bingung* So Mr Crystal Jade, will I get endorsement or not? *senyum manis*
Anyway for these past 2 years or so, everytime I enter Crystal Jade, they always greet me in Cantonese,"Lei hou, Ji Wai?"
For this question I still can answer lah, even oredering drink still have survival kit in cantonese language, and even to the extend the normal food that I ordered still can lah...but further than that I'll switch to Chinese or English....
I was wondering, I look like cantonese meh? Or even Hongkongers? No doubt 3 of my cousins are Hongkongers (1 of them converted to Singaporean though), but it's still very clear in my mind in the first year of my stay in Singapore, every time I took taxi, the uncle always said,"You Filipino ah?" Just because my thick Australian accent...but now not so bad...coz I tend to speak Singlish, or sometime Inglish (Indonesian English), even worse I can't speak and pronounce a words properly sometimes...I'm losing my Oz accent *cry*
But still can't understand, they also always said I looks like Filipino, even when I was in Bangkok, they mistaken me as Thai, and started to speak Thai to me, alamak... So now I have transformed my look become Chinese look ah? *puzzled* Not even Chinese..Hongkongers some *sigh*
Talking about Hongkong, ahhhh..I miss Hongkong so much, the shoppings...the food...sitting along star avenue (especially during winter or spring like this), watching sunset *again*, actually not really sunset lah, I just like to see the changes of the sky, then the light started to turn on, so romantic, it's just like you sit at the end of the rocks watching North Sydney or reverse sitting in Milson Point and watching Sydney CBD, but of course Australia much more better than Hongkong lah ya...and in the same time imagining what if Jackie Chan or Andy Lau or even Jacky Cheung passed by in front of me and asked me out for dinner? *day dreaming* wakakkakakakkaka.....
Having dinner in Midlevel (something like Holland Village equivalent), then finish up with hanging out in the club at Lan Kwai Fong, washing eyes, watching handsome man, yeah they are indeed much more handsome and more gentleman compare to Singaporean man *sigh* and start practising my survival kit in cantonese, which I'm going to share with you..
Lei Hou = How are you?
Lei Kiu Mei-e Meng = What's your name?
And the most important thing is Lei Hou Leng Cai = You're so handsome
When somebody buy you drinks, don't forget to say Em Koi Lei = Thank you
wakakkakakakkakkakakaaa....now time to practice mate.....*winks*

And after that we'll try the steamboat again in my place *senyum manis*
I can't transfer the photo from my handphone (I forgot to bring the camera from the office, so I used my hp instead *blush*)thru infrared to the laptop *sigh* so can't upload any photo, please try to look at other blog lah ya *nyari alasan* Eh can already *nyengir* that the photo on top, enjoy and have a guess who is who ok? The winner will have a grand prize, staying in my house for week end *winks* Sounds tempting or not *maksa*
Now I'm started to miss all of you..sobs..sobs...I think this is the most crazy house warming party that I've ever hold....there will be sequel, mates, no worries....

Politics
Hmmm too many stories to tell, but can't tell all, later on I'll be running out of posting soon *innocent face* Well let me think...Ok lah..I'd written down the title already..
As I told you Monday I started to be based in my client's office, but only for half day, then Tuesday I was sick, Wednesday was in a process of recovery (actually quite recover lah, but laziness speak louder than anything *blush*), so I decided not to go to that hell...
As per my evaluation of the schedule, I'll be going to 2 offices, morning to hell (my client's office) and after lunch will be back to my beloved office *sigh* What a relieve....
Then yesterday, after 2 days absent from hell, I went back there, to see Oh my God, my new staff which is based there, lost weight in 2 days *surprised* but after I sit down and calm myself down, it's not a surprised lah, even me only half day on Monday, could fall sick..but she was there for 3 full days only lost her weight, fair enough lah....So it's a good place to lose weight huh? *evil face* wakakakkaka..
Anyway... luckily during my stint there, that bitch was bloody busy..doing month end closing, so I didn't really have chance to interact with her *relieves*, only verify some thing that I found unfair for my staff but I also lost to her *sigh* FYI nobody could win talking or debating with her (I'd rather not to debate than doin so but still lose)...
Yesterday there is an incident, between the bitch and the new marketinng executive, even though by right the marketing exec position is higher than her, but seeing that new girl face and behaviour, of course the bitch can do anything she likes on her. As what I expected, the new girl was going to cry, just simple the bitch didn't want to spare time to help her going thru the system with her...which I couldn't help either, coz I only familiar with membership thingy, meanwhile that new girl needed more than that...so poor thing...
I met the advertising and promotion assistant manager, and she said to me,"Eh seeing you working here, hen nan qan leh" (=not nice to see)
I said,"Huh? wo se ma nan qan meh?" (=Am I that bad))
She,"Bu se lah (=no lah)...what I mean is every time seeing you here, as a boss discussing something with us mah...but now you have to work here every day with us..."
I said,"Huh? I look like a boss meh? So good ar? I also need to work for a living leh..."
Then both of us laugh....gokil ahhh...if only everybody in that company like her, wah..it's going to be fun to be based there..*deep sigh*
Just wish you all have a good week end, and for Singapore bloggers hope that we will hev a good time tomorrow yaaa....

I miss You
Last week, I was tidying up my desk (*blush* my desk quite messy though), suddenly I found a few cards with the same sender from Malang. I didn't know why I could miss out these 3 cards, coz I know very well he will send me a card at least 3 per year, one for Christmas, one for Chinese New Year and one more for birthday, sometimes even Valentine's day card...but yet last year I didn't received any...then finally I know that actually I'd received but not realised, coz I've not been checking my mailbox by myself nowadays....
Anyway one of the card is really touched my heart, it's a simple card, but with a lots of memories inside, he wrote,"Happy Birthday Flona (eh don't congratulate me ya..my birthday is in October...), I wish you'll be more beautiful (caelah...sweet talk or what?), more cute (hmmm not enough cute meh? wakkakak), and more sexy (wah I need this one very much, mate..wakakak), I miss you so muchh... all those time we shared in Sydney and a few months back when I visited Singapore...by the way, please over turn this card now...I bought this card from your favourite hang out, MCA Sydney, I purposedly went there to buy this card, because I know that you like to go to this museum so much...all the best for you..."
So touchy? I miss you too Rob, I miss you sooooo muchhhhhh....all those times that we've spent together, either happy or frustating moment..can't be describe by words....
You're my everything (too much sih...), my vocal coach, my karaoke buddy (if you couldn't get any room for karaoke in Sydney, Robby is the right man to approach, every time we went to karaoke, he always has special privileged, just because he's the karaoke champion winner for I don't know how many years), my dance instructor (I'm a very bad dancer though till now *blush*), my personal shopper, my fashion consultant, my shopping buddy, my photo hunting khaki (=buddy - hokkian), even though at the end I became the your victim to become your models(he likes to take people, meanwhile I more into landscape photography), my eating buddy (even though everytime we ordered so much food, I ate a little bit and you have to finish the rest *blush*), those countless yum cha and dinner in Chinatown *sigh*, my cafe companion...pokoke you're my everything deh...
Now that you move back to Sydney, I would like to wish you all the best for your life, I know you can mate...
Meanwhile let me promote you to all the readers, he's a bloody good proffesional photographer with a midas touch...so if you need photo shooting services, just contact me, I'll forward you to him *ngelirik Agnes dan Astri*
Once again, Robby my man, I miss you a lot and I wish you all the best for your future...

I'm Back (for the day lah ya...)
Hola...I'm back *nyengir*
This morning I supposed to wake up at 7 am, but I don't know how...by the time I really walked out of the bed it's 8 am *blush* I wondered how did I manage to wake up 5 am with out fail every day when I was still at school in Jakarta *mikir* Hayo piyeee? Somebody explain please....
Anyway, I sms-ed the girl that supposed to deal with me, informing I'd arrive around 9.30 instead of 8.30 *blush* so far out ya? wakakakakkaka...I arrived there about 9.20, found out that the girl said she supposed to meet me at 10 am, aiyoh...but her assistant is very good, she said," let's not waste your time, start now lah.." which I agreed
By default I have to be under that girl til lunch, meanwhile after lunch I'll be under that poisonous bitch *sigh* but that nice girl finished quite early, as she said she doesn't want to bombard us with so many things in a day, so I thought I could back to my office til lunch finish though. But checking with the bitch, she said it's better to start with her that time....so ok lah I agreed.
Oh my God, bloody bitch, knowing the new contract with my company, she purposedly let all the job piled over there, waiting for the staff from my company to handle her bloody don't know how many months loads of worked has she been collected til now *sigh*
She really tries to make the full use of the contract, I really pity my new staff, but I have no power to help, hopefully my new staff can survive there lah...the job sounds quite easy but tedious, I don't think I could be able to handle that type of job...anyway coz there is no more training going on, so I left their office early for today...*lega*
Now trying to cope with my sleepiness, even though had grabbed coffee from Starbucks (excuse me, will you endorse me pleasee Mr Starbucks?), of course decaf and low fat lah, if not may be now I'm not in the office, but landed in hospital lah..
But tomorrow, gotta be there again, but probably not as early as today lah ya...

Sunday nite, hanging out in the office, just because I left my hp in the office friday nite, as I left in a hurry coz I had to attend stupid boring function that nite *regret*
Some more I'm having diarrhea now, which I suspected from the lunch today *sigh* Rushing back to the office to get my hp, back side itchy, turned on my PC, and check my office e-mail (which I try to refrain doing so from home), at the end, here I am, glued on to my chair doing some work *workaholic mode on*
What to do? My responsibility is very high though, coz tomorrow I will not be in the office as I said, probably by doing some works tonite, so tomorrow nite after my japanese class, I will not need to go back to the office again? *doubtfull*
Quite spooky in the office, just imagine lah, I think the whole building only me, but what the heck lah ya....just now suddenly the fax received something, I was shock bit lah ya...but used to it already...
Okay mo minta doa restu lagi nih buat besok *sungkem* Over there I won't be able to have access to the internet, I only can access their intranet *sick* So I don't know whether I can update my blog from home for the next only God knows how long lah ya....Hopefully I can survive ya...
Have a nice week ahead....

Wish Me Luck
Update on my sickness first lah ya....I think it shouldn't be any problems, just because of the work and the stress, so my body goes crazy, all things came out in the same time, migraine, gastric, panick attack, spasm, muscle constraction...but as the doctor wanna play safe here, he insisted on doing ECG on me that nite, and then refers me to cardiologist lah...
Anyway, starting from Monday I will be put in the dungeon *cry* I have to be based in one of my client's office for only God knows *sigh* I only hope between 2 to 4 weeks lah...if could be shorter, I'll be the happy enough *sigh*
You remember that 2 head snake? *sobs* nah...I'll be working with her from Monday onwards, in her office *panick* Doh I have to play politics, and I hate politic, I can't play this game well *sigh* You know me lah...I'm a very easy to read person...how ah? *singlish* but I don't have any other choice leh...die die must go there one *more singlish* alamak...gawat gag siy?
Only 1 consolation, let me tell you ar...the manager is oh quite cute...wakakkaka...but then have to be proffesional, rite? Don't mix business with pleasures *grin*
Then come again the bad news...when first I met him, I tought,"Hmm quite cute ya..."
On subsequent meeting, then I feel,"Eh this guy look familiar..."
On one of the event that I have to attend, I brought my partner in crime along, suddenly she said,"Eh Flon, tuh orang koq mirip...." then she stopped, then I looked at her with a horror look...and we scream together," aarrrghhhhh......"a lot of people turned their face to us *blush*
By then I realised he looks like doh...hard to write...hmm somebody that had left a lot of memories in my life and I'd tried very hard to forget...that's the bad news...
Luckily (still try to get something positive lah..) my cubicle will be right at the back...wish me luck ya...I have to survive nih...and I will survive *sing*
Have a nice week end all....

Bagaikan Kacang Lupa Kulitnya
Touch Wood dulu ahhhhhh....
Have you ever met some experiences like somebody has already been succeeded, then he will become arrogant or snobbish? Or some companies (especially retail) when they succeed then they become lose in quality of service?
First Hongkong Cafe, which is located in East Coast Road, the first time I visited there, I felt the food was fabulous, ambiance good, everything good lah, secnd visit also still the same, then suddenly the third visit, the food qualities was bad, drinks to sweet, and their opening hours has changed, before hand they open for sunday lunch, now not anymore *sigh* I knew they had succeeded, but success doesn't mean you can change your attitude towards work commitment and quality of works, agree?
Second, last nite I was having a chest cramp so I decided to go to Gleneagles Hospital. I found that the service quality there now is quite bad. When I saw the doctor, and he asked me about my medical history, to my surprise I found out that now they gave the doctor a new clean card *sigh* weird, huh? I think I was still there a few months back, not really that long though to throw my history card away...besides the doctor in charge is no longer that cute doctor anymore *nyengir* Next time I won't go there anymore....
Last but not least after seeing all those incidents I hope that whatever I have achieved in my life until this moment, I'll make sure I will not slackened towards my works and I'll try to do better than what I am now, and always be humble...seperti padi..semakin berisi semakin merunduk....

First Hongkong Cafe, which is located in East Coast Road, the first time I visited there, I felt the food was fabulous, ambiance good, everything good lah, secnd visit also still the same, then suddenly the third visit, the food qualities was bad, drinks to sweet, and their opening hours has changed, before hand they open for sunday lunch, now not anymore *sigh* I knew they had succeeded, but success doesn't mean you can change your attitude towards work commitment and quality of works, agree?
Second, last nite I was having a chest cramp so I decided to go to Gleneagles Hospital. I found that the service quality there now is quite bad. When I saw the doctor, and he asked me about my medical history, to my surprise I found out that now they gave the doctor a new clean card *sigh* weird, huh? I think I was still there a few months back, not really that long though to throw my history card away...besides the doctor in charge is no longer that cute doctor anymore *nyengir* Next time I won't go there anymore....
Last but not least after seeing all those incidents I hope that whatever I have achieved in my life until this moment, I'll make sure I will not slackened towards my works and I'll try to do better than what I am now, and always be humble...seperti padi..semakin berisi semakin merunduk....

Clash
First of all, I saw a doctor yesterday, when I said I have a bone ache, she asked the same question as what I was thinking when I started to feel my bone is aching,"Had you by any chance bitten by mosquitos?" hehhhe...yupe after that bloody denqueue fever, everytime I have fever, that's the first question that is going into my mind. But anyway I only have viral infection lah, but now, my voice is oh so sexy, more sexy than banci who always sing in warung in front of my place in Jakarta *blush* (it remind me of Jangan Ganggu Banci song, which made me laugh by my self when I first heard that song, inside the car, driving alone *blush*)
Secondly..Ooopss I'm caught by Yuli *blush* hehehhe..she knows me well now...if I'm in troubles usually I'll have a lot of activities...the more activities mean more trouble *blush* I know everybody that heard I'm taking Japanese lesson always said,"What? Are you crazy? 24 hours in a day is not enough for your work but yet you still take another class". *nyengir*
Anyway...my partner in crime is going to Bangkok this week for training, and during week end, she'll go Koh Samui with her colleague for holiday. I've already tried my best to dig information from her about what time is her flight from Bangkok going to be, and which resort she's goin to stay. All the info has already completed, and I was planning to give her surprise by going there and staying in the same resort and appear to her suddenly *devil smile*, like what I did to Agnes *nyengir*, but this time I don't have any accomplice though, I don't know her colleague *sigh*
Well I'm thinking wait until Monday to book air ticket and hotel, and suddenly my client called me,"Hey Flo, we're having an event this week end, you have to come, promise?" Arrrghhhhhh...all my plants broke down into pieces *sobs* Some more then I realised that I have another event to attend as well on that day, around same time...
Alamak..now I'm in trouble, 2 events in the same time, if only I were an amoeba, can split my self into two, or may be I had twin sister *sigh*
May be I should hold a contest looking for somebody looks like me, but actually I have one...but I don't feel she looks like me though...but almost everybody ask whether she's my sister or what...but very far lah...bloody far....I'm more pretty *pe de* wakakkakakak....

Last Week Update
First of all...thanks for all your encouragement for my last posting, well..I think that's really what friend are for, friends keep everybody life goes on...That's something I've been missing after I landed in Singapore, if you saw my posting for my valentine's day below, all those photos, all those friends, I used to have lotsa friends everywhere, even when I was in Jakarta...but suddenly after I came to Singapore *sigh*, I only have a handfull of physical friends, but thanks God I still have a lot of virtual friends which is you all...
Last week was not a really good week for me, there are a lot of battle and frustation inside me, but anyway here I am still surviving though *nyengir* I can't sleep as per normal (which is even though my normal sleep has already been abnormal for the normal people *nah loh bingung kan*) especially Friday, can't sleep, till about 2 am (uupss it's Saturday already ya...) then woke up at 6 am, gasping for my breath, I thought, this is it, good by world...but here I am still here writing my blog *nyengir lagi*
So after I managed to control my breathing, I decided to go out for a walk and have brekkie outside, suddenly jreng...I missed Sydney, when I'd moved to Kingsford, my Saturday morning routine is walking from my place in Anzac Parade, all the way down to Coogee beach, if I could walk early then I'll be able to see the full perfect sunrise ceremony (it's not a cultural ceremony though, that's how I called it *nyengir*), but if not, then I only enjoy the last half of it, then after that I would have brekkie in one of those cafe by the beach, yupe...all by my self, what a perfect life....
I always dream to have a flat or condominium or even a house by the beach, because I just love beach so much better than mountain. One day I have to make sure that I'll be able to realise my dream, but don't know where...
Allrighty back to the story line. Because there is no such thing as Coogee beach in Singapore, so I decided to drive to West Coast Beach, that's the way they called it even though there is no beach there *sigh* there is a sea, and a park, and they're building the promenade now... Before proceeding to West Coast Beach, I decided to buy newspaper first, one thing, in Singapore the newspaper man quite lazy, 6 am my newspaper hasn't arrived, I think they arrived around 8 am, ridiculous, isn't it? back in Jakarta I could read my newspaper as early as 5 am *sigh*, went to 7 eleven, they newspaper hasn't arrived either *arrrghhh* so I drove to Holland V, looked like they'd just finished unloading the stock *sigh*
I was tempted to have brekkie in Holland V instead, but I checked BK, Starbucks, Coffee Beans hadn't opened, lazy to check the other side, what the heck, I tought, West Coast Beach will always be there 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, yupe..it's Mc D *sigh* they got Mc Cafe, but I'm not sure what time do they open...
Arrived there, I order big breakfast, even though I couldn't finished *blush* sitting under the sun...reading my newspaper, had a brisk walk (I can't jog, it will make my thigh very ichy, but if I played basketball and tennis, I run like nothing, surprise huh? Me too still wondering very hard..why is that so..)
Afternoon meeting up with friends, did some shopping *sigh* Actually I'd promised my self not to spend on clothing this month, but...suddenly I have something come up, I have to be stationed in my client's place, so I have to update my wardrobe donks *nyari alasan*, so here I go shopping time....as usual lah...over spent (hmm like real huh? I'd never set the budget though, but just feel, wow...I spent so much hehehhe...reminds me of that book Shopaholics.. heheheh)
Then I started something wrong with my body, I'm sick *horayyy* till now, losing my lovely voice *sigh*, going to see the doctor in the afternoon, and rest at home till evening, then I'll go to Japanese Class (I still owe you this story, don't I?)
Have a good week ahead yaaa.....

Week end Reflection
I was talking over the phone to my friend on Wednesday nite, and I didn't know how it was started, suddenly the "gokil" topic changed to life...Suddenly she said,"Waduh Flon, gue salut ama elo, selama ini gue tuh pikir elo orang yang paling trouble free banget, soalnya elo gokil abis sih...tapi gua gak nyangka di balik ke-gokil-an lo itu ternyata elo tuh mengalami banyak banget hal, tapi elo masih bisa tetep ceria dan gokil, gue gak kebayang deh kalo gue yang musti ngadepin masalah ginian sebagai elo, kayanya gue bakalan dah give up dari kapan-kapan kali ya..."
After I hung up the phone, suddenly I recalled these verse:
Then I started to think,"Is it because God knows that I still can bear with all of these series of things?"
I just hope I will still be able to bear with all the things though, but until how far?
Have a great week end everyone *hugs*
After I hung up the phone, suddenly I recalled these verse:
No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it. (1 Cor 10:13)
Then I started to think,"Is it because God knows that I still can bear with all of these series of things?"
I just hope I will still be able to bear with all the things though, but until how far?
Have a great week end everyone *hugs*

On Diet
Trying to go on diet, not for losing weight purposes, but because of I'm going to have an exam at the end of this month.
Wondering what's the connection between exam and diet huh? *evil smile*
It's my singing class exam lah (eh not Singapore Idol lah, oh ya I supposed to join ya...there still be opening this Sunday, will you vote for me ar? *senyum manis*)...coz on Tuesday I had fried food plus sambal belachan for my lunch, and my voice was broken down *sigh* Stupid me, when the teacher asked me to choose 3 songs to sing, which comprised of 2 Indonesian songs (yeah I sing Indonesian song most of the time, remember I'm the Duta Indonesia *grin*) and 1 English songs, then I choosed Kaulah Segalanya-Uthe, Bukan Cinta Biasa-Siti Nurhaliza, and Can You Feel The Love Tonight-Lion King.
Idiotic, right? Especially for Siti Nurhaliza, wow, she has a very high voice, she sings with head voice, and you know my voice is quite low...yeah that's me, loves challenges...
Anyway I have to eat something soupy (eh not soapy ya...), like instant noodle *grinned* wakakkaka...for the next 2 weeks, and go to Kbox more often *ngelirik Yuli* (like real huh? so far I've been once only, and it's because my Karaoke buddy came from Sydney)...but karaoke alone? so sad huh? not fun also..Going to karaoke is not about the singing, but it's about fun and togetherness...
Oh no... now I'm started to miss Sydney again, I mean, I miss my friends inside those photos below, especially Megumi and Robby, my faihtful karaoke buddy...

Happy Valentine's Day everyone, I love you all....
Happy Valentine's Day everyone, I love you all....
Oma
Phew....finally Chinese New Year is over (officially it's 2 weeks), so yesterday was the last day...with my parents here, I had a very long visiting lists *sigh* which usually when my parents are not here, I try to cut short by only visited the core family member only.
Have you noticed that Grandma always dote the first grandchild available?
It works on me, while I'm practically the first grandchild for grandma from my mom' side, where 3 of my mom's elder sister are in Hongkong, and they hadn't been back for so long, which made my position as 1st grandchild even stronger. She doted me a lots, even when later on a few cousins came in, I'm still number one *grin* but too bad when I left for Sydney she felt sick, and passed away after a few years *sigh*
On the other hand, from my dad's side, I don't know I'm in what rank, and I know that I was not in the 1st rank, but later I learned that even though I didn't feel her love, and I was really scared of her, she also loved me, my cousins who were staying with her, told me, every Sunday, she used to sit in front of TV, saying that I might be appeared in the children show (Aneka Ria Anak - Anak *jadul banged*) one day...and without failed she did that until I grew up become a teenager, but too bad, she didn't have a chance to see me on TV when I was representing my school for Cepat Tepat *jadul lagi*, she passed away long before that *sigh*
So now, here I am, grandma-less, but my best friend's grandma is staying in Singapore, ever since I moved to Singapore, every year, my best friend asks me to become a flower courier for her grandma, which I happily do. And by any chance, my best friend is also the first grandchild from Oma *sigh*
Everytime my best friend comes to Singapore, she'll stay in Oma place, and of course I'll go to Oma place to pick her up, or only to hang around there with her, gossiping, flipping TV programmes etc..etc...
Anyway Oma is getting old, but she's still strong and fresh, the last time my best friend came was on October for her sister wedding, and I don't know why, suddenly Oma said to me,"Kamu jadi cucu oma aja deh...sering-sering dateng ke sini dong nengokin Oma".
Well I guess Oma is very lonely...and on week end I visited Oma for Chinese New Year, everything she does, exactly representing my grandma from my mom side, and suddenly made me missed her a lot *hiks*
When I asked permission to leave, suddenly Oma hugged me and cry...Oh my God, I don't know what to do *sigh* I only said," Happy New Year yah Oma, biar Oma sehat selalu dan panjang umur..."
I'll continue to visit Oma....

If only
Remember the choose your own adventure book? *jadul banget yak* The book that let you choose your own destiny during the reading.
That book made me start to wonder if I hadn't left Jakarta a few years back, what will my life be? Will it be better? Or worse?

Andaikan Kau Datang
Terlalu indah dilupakan
Terlalu sedih dikenangkan
Setelah aku jauh berjalan
Dan kau...kutinggalkan
Betapa hatiku bersedih
Mengenang kasih dan sayangmu
Setulus pesanmu kepadaku
Engkau'kan menunggu
Andaikan kau datang kembali
Jawaban apa yang kan kuberi
Adakah jalan yang kau temui
Untuk kita kembali lagi
Bersinarlah bulan purnama
Seindah serta tulus cintanya
Bersinarlah terus sampai nanti
Lagu ini kuakhiri
That Koes Plus' song, that is re-sung by Ruth Sahanaya in Salute to Koes Plus album, like Yoan said, really wonderful, and touches my heart quite deep...
I used to ask the same question also, and one of my best friend said the answer is most likely "No", because people change through out times, so you might find he'd changed as well...
When my turn came, after a very long and deep thought, my answer was "No" (surprise huh I could say No? *nyengir*, the scar is too deep, that's why...), I think that's the best answer ....I just don't want to be hurt anymore..

Beautiful Moment
This morning I woke up finding a silence moment, nobody at home, only Nunik busy cleaning the kitchen *horray* I like to be home alone...freeeeeeee
Made my breakfast consist of Sosro Jasmine Tea plus a bit of sugar and one slice of toast, put Sheila on 7 inside CD player...
It was quite windy and cool this morning, wow...so enjoyable... that tea emank kaga ada matinye cink... (eh I got endorsement or not yaa? wakakakka...but anyway I'm Miss Indonesia lah...everything I speak, I always proud of my country lah yaa...)
Felt like a very perfect holiday, until I turned my head to the window and saw another row of blocks across my block *gubraks*
All the beatiful moment turned into nightmare again *sigh*

Brain Error
I've never been this error before, yesterday, the whole day I kept on doing stupid mistakes, luckily (Indonesian always use luckily ya *blush*) my workloads was not much, so I didn't do something fatal, but only bloody stupid.
I couldn't remember exactly what were stupid things that I'd done. It started during my morning shower, I was about to wash my face, then I was wondering, why my face wash smelt and felt different *bingunk* I opened my eyes and found out that I pour the bath gel instead of face wash *gubraks* Gila gag siy? the bottle are very different in shape, face wash is tube meanwhile bath gel is bottle *mokal abis* Still I couldn't learned from experience, after the shower, I was applying the eye cream, I felt eh...why the eye cream so watery ya? To my suprised when I turned my head to see my hand, it was my moisturiser *pingsan*
In the office I tried to print out something then the printer didn't work, I was wondering why, then finally I found out that I hadn't plugged in the USB cable to my CPU *blush*
I was in the middle of writing, then suddenly somebody called me, I tried to rise up from my chair, meanwhile my handphone charger's cable is strangled into my chair, luckily the handphone was only dangling in the air, hadn't knocked anything at all *lega*
After that I went back to my table, found out I lost my pen, I was searching high and low, went out of my room, went to next rooms, under the table, and everywhere, still couldn't find out, I gave up my writing (I only like to write with that particular pen though *blush*)..then went I went to buy for another pen, I found that pen was inside my wallet *gondok* I realised that I did some internet transaction before hand, so it might be slipped inside after I put back my credit card *sigh*
The craziest thing among all was I supposed to go for my Japanese Class in Bugis (yupe I take up Japanese class, I'll tell the story someday ya....*mbok ya sing sabar*) then I was inside Bugis Junction shopping centre to buy the bloody pen, then instead of walking toward my school, then I went to the gym direction *gubraks*
Gila gag sih guwe ini? Error pisan abis2an kayak gini *jedotin kepala ke tembok* Scary or not? I also keep on forgetting things, is it early sign of amnesia? But yet the bloody problems that I really want to forget are still stuck and fresh inside my mind...Do I need to reinstall my brain?

Kisah Sedih Di Hari Minggu
That's the title of sinetron that I saw when I was in Jakarta a few weeks back, and they use Koes Plus song as a soundtrack as well.
I don't know why, suddenly it made me wanna hear their songs again, even though when I was still a small kid, everytime my driver put their songs, I always complained *grinned* May be age has something to do with these kinda sentimental feeling *sigh*
Anyway, on that Friday after the TV session in the hotel, I did my final shopping, bought some cds, which I didn't have time to try, just grabbed as many as I could, as long as I saw "the best of somebody that I knew" then I just took...My actions caught a curious looks of the buyer and the cd shop's staffs as well, of course lah..who is crazy enough to buy so many Indonesian cds, without trying at all *grinned*
So now I have quite some of Indonesian songs collection *bangga* but the Koes Plus songs, it's not by them, but retouched and re-sung by current famous singer. And that song "Kisah Sedih di Hari Minggu" is only sung by "aaaaaaaaa" and only a bit *gondok*
By the way, I found 1 clip from that Tribute to Koes Plus, by Riff, you can click on the play sign above though, but the singer looks scary, luckily the model is quite cute, who's the name ar...mmm duh..amnesia nih guwe...*sedih* For those who doesn't know Koes Plus, the original songs of course not Rock like this, but anyway rock with the whole orchestra, quite funky though *surprised*
Last but not least, of course my Sunday was quite sad yesterday too lah, if not, why should I use this title...
I don't know why, suddenly it made me wanna hear their songs again, even though when I was still a small kid, everytime my driver put their songs, I always complained *grinned* May be age has something to do with these kinda sentimental feeling *sigh*

Viva Vina
Yesterday morning, I woke up with a sms saying,"Zhao sang Hao Hunny Bunny, there will be Viva Vina concert this month, r u going 2 come again?" with the devil animation inside...
Gubraks...Aje gilee...she tought I'm a conglomerate or what ya? I know 1 nite would never be enough to be with me *pe de abies* but this is not the polite way to invite me back home lah ya...wakakkakakakkak....
Remembering I only left with 3 more free fiscal, and I still have to attend her wedding and the other best friend wedding, hen parties, and my travel list that haven't been fullfilled till now, which consist of:
1. Fishing in Pulau Seribu
2. Catching sunrise and sunset in Bali
3. Still curious about staying in Novus Resort, Puncak
4. Fishing and Trekking trip to Tanjung Lesung
5. Lombok revisited
6. Catching sunrise again in Borobudur
7. Bandung, lautan makanan dan FO
8. Catching sunrise in Bromo
9. etc..etc...
Weleh, have to work triple hard to fullfill all of those meanwhile the list still continues, and all of the above is still in Indonesia, how about other countries destination?*sigh*
By the way, last nite, meeting with my partner in crime, she sounded so desperate because of her boss and crazy workloads, meanwhile I need a few rounds of drinks, so we went to Long Bar to have couples of drinks. We ended up with shooting peanut to each other (in Long Bar they provide peanuts and we can just throw the skin anywhere, like Lone Star Steak House in Perth itu loh...but the difference in Long Bar, they will sweep the floor after they close, so not so many peanuts around). From her I found out that Viva Vina, will be conducted by Addie MS...weleh...should I consider going back again to catch the concert yak? *deep tought sambil ngitung kancing*

Momentum
On the day before Chinese New Year, I had a lots of work to do in the office, and still had to rush to buy last minutes shopping list from my mom, before supermarket closed at 5 pm. Arrived at home, hearing my mom said that Nunik's father is very sick.
I smelt a fish, there are 2 possibilities:
1. Nuniek can not tahan under my mom regimes.
2. Nuniek want to use that excuse to extend her contract with me, by saying she doesn't have enough money to cover her dad's expenses.
And then.....this morning, I was about to leave the house and wanted to talk to Nunik about something, I saw her crying...I said,"Loh, Nik, kamu kenapa?"
She said,"Anu ma'am, saya udah gak tahan lagi kerja di sini bla..bla..bla.."
I didn't really get what she said after that and suddenly she stopped coz my mom went into the house....
I supposed to shout,"Horrayyyy...."
Instead, my heart melted seeing her condition, I felt sorry for her *sigh* So I called back home from the office,"Nik, mbok ya sing sabar....sayang kan tinggal 6 bulan lagi kamu kerja di sini...paling ibu saya masih sekitar 2 minggu atau 1 bulan lagi di sini, yah kamu sabar ajah..."
Like real huh? I don't even know when will my parents go back to Jakarta, but out of pity, I just made up some stories for her wakakakkakaka....
But let me clarify one thing, I don't regret for the decision I've made, to let her stay, anyway we're all human, no matter how many mistakes she has made (inclusive she damaged my new Arsenal's jersey *sigh*), my motto that was taught by my partner in crime "Mbok ya sing sabar, sing Kuoso sing mbales...."

Chinese New Year
I asked my parents to invite my partner in crime for the reunion dinner, and of course my parents were very happy to have additional guest, as we always hold the principle "the more the merrier". Even my mom still asked me whether I have any other friend to invite some more *weleh*
A few days before that, I'd informed her about the reunion dinner, and she was so excited...every day she sms-ed me counting down the day *sigh* and I passed her the voucher from Lee Hwa, as my point expiring, and they converted my points to voucher, meanwhile, I'm not a jewellery person (yupe, you must be asking I'm not jewellery person, but yet I had points inside my membership, rite? Coz usually I bought jewelleries for a gift to my mom, or relatives lah...want to receive a gift also? be my relatives lah ...wakakkakaka...*promote*), so she alos sms-ed me saying that she bought some jewelleries for Chinese New Year, she couldn't wait to wear them *sigh*
I'm the one who celebrates CNY but not as excited as her....
Anyway, that nite she came, and we ate, turned on Channel U, they were showing Super Star Live, and she was surprised why those superstar sang out of tune, as we ate, everytime they sang out of tune, we saw each other and burtst into laughter...*jail*
After dinner, we enjoy a few drinks, as usual Choya lah...actually wanted to open wine, but my parents don't drink, I didn't want to get drunk as well, coz we were planning to see fireworks in Chinatown...
Finished dinner, dragged my mom and my dad to play UNO, but only my mom willing to join, and she lost, after that she went on strike she said that we cheated on her *sigh* So we just did channel surfing as usual, waited till 11.20 pm to go to China town.
Supposedly we went with my parents, but my dad didn't want to go, so....we still went ahead...the fireworks was so dissapointing, and it was so anti klimax, there were no spirit of Chinese New Year at all, like everybody didn't wish each other happy new year, like what people did in Sydney, so dissapointing...even my partner in crime said,"Huh? Cuma kaya gini nih?"
I said,"Well, what you expect, it's Singapore...wakakkaka...at least you still have me by your side *mulai ngegombal*"
So I sent her home, and realised that there were a bigger firework at River Hongbao, which I'd forgotten about it *regret*
Anyway after the count down, suddenly I felt very sad, empty and lonely....Another year passed by, getting older, and have to face more challenges all by my self, nobody can help, and this time I can't run away anymore....
Back to life...back to reality... *nyanyi*

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
It 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
I 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......

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*
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....

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...

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*
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..

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?"
Jreng...die nyuci pake tangan? bearti..... *gubraks*
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..."
Gue,"Gak mungkin lah.."
Her,"Emang yang mana ma'am?"
Weleh udah mulai ngelunjak nih.."Yang model kaya sekarang saya taruh di tempat cucian.."
Her,"bener loh ma'am saya cuci pake tangan..."
Nah sodara sodari...die pake acara sumpah segala euy....serius banged gak siy?
Apa gue cut short ajah yah by hmmm 6 months masa kerjanya? Gue dah capek deh ama yang model ginian....gue gak pernah nuduh orang sampe segini seriusnya seumur hidup gue...kan gue orangnya gak enak ati-an kalo soal nuduh menuduh mah, walopun tuh orang salah...
Seberapa panjangnya sabar gue sih pasti ada batasnya dehhhhh....

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..
