A Letter To My Compatriot

Dear My Compatriot Diana Sosrosaputro,
It's been 16 years we've known each other, but feels like yesterday.
I would like to say thanks for our beautiful friendship that we share, in good times or bad times, even though we were separated in different continents, but our friendship still survive.
You're my life line when I'm in trouble, and you always be there for me, no matter what time I called you, you always be there *touch*
You're my source of wisdom (besides God, of course), but yet I pray that one day you can imply your wisdom towards your life as well. Sometimes life is not about rules and regulation, but it's about cool head, cool heart and forgiveness.
You're a very clever person, and I hope you'll have a beautiful EQ as well.
I want to say thanks to Harry Setiawan to take you as a wife, I hope both of you will share a beautiful and happy life together, in bad times and good times.
I also hope both of you can close one eyes or even two eyes towards each other, I'll pray hard for both you for your future.
With lots of love
xoxo
badtzumaru your compatriot
Now my posting lah ya....hmmm my gigs, oh no....wismilak ya...
I'm going to Bali to attend my compatriot wedding...hope everything's gonna be allrite....*sigh*
Happy week end everyone *mwuach mwuach*

Anomali

Still remember that words? I don't think that one is English words though, it means Deviation in English. Yupe I think I was deviating a bit hmmm a lot when I was in Jakarta last week end.
I ate like nobody business, which never happened in my life before, even my dad was very surprised seeing my appetite increase *blush* We had a buffet breakfast provided by the service apartment, and by the time we went back to our unit, I started searching additional food *blush*. Usually after lunch, I'll have 2 tea breaks (not drinking tea but looking for something to eat lah...), and after dinner we still went for supper of course *sigh* What had gotten into me? *suspicious* May be Buto Ijo *jrengggg...* But luckily so far until now i haven't gained any weight, but on the contrary I lost weight a bit *relief*
Secondly, photography is my hobby, but I had never enjoyed to be taken as the photo object, but this time, I was very narciss *blush again* Especially in the party, I can't remember how many photos of my had been taken, and I got a few photos of myself taken with my friends inside my handphone *senyum manis* Luckily so far I only use those photos as my handphone wallpaper, it considers quite narciss though, but I won't put it up in my blog of course *evil smile*
Thirdly, I was very "cengeng" duh what's the English translation...mmm touchy feelings or easily cry, something like that lah...Which is not my cup of tea also, no matter how my friend or my mom cry when watching drama or whatever, I would be still cool lah. But then when I was attending my best-est friend church wedding ceremony, during the moment they pay respect for their parents, the choirs sang "Di Doa Ibuku" Oh My God, I looked at Rudy, he was trying his best to hold his tears, I was very touch, and by the time Sari hugged and kissed her parents, waaaaaa it made my feelings worse, I keep on telling my self,"No, Flona...you can not cry, you don't have tissue inside your bag, please don't cry..." *sigh* but then Sari also broke down to tears...yaelah...Rudy gave Sari tissue, do you think I should shout,"Eh Rud, pass me the tissue euyyy..." Wakakkakakka.....
I also could feel love is in the air *nyanyi* during the church ceremony, and I was very touch, and of course envy lah yauuuuuuu.....but I feel very happy for Sari dan Rudi, all the best for both of you *hug and kiss*
Last but not leasy at the airport, Sari and Rudi sent me down also, and Sari looked very touchy and I was infected also waaaaaaaaaaa....why I become like this leh? *singlish*

Pondok Cianjur

I've come back *grin* too many things happened in this very short period, both in Singapore and in Jakarta *sigh*
Anyway, let's forget about the problem, let me tell you this story, since my compatriot was still in Singapore, she'd been talking to me about having lunch in Pondok Cianjur on Saturday which I supposed to be in Jakarta.
It's quite the "in" place to eat, and has become to talk of the town, I mean, the place is normal, but the food is damn good, Sundanese Food. My other gank member said the place is very crowded most of the time, so she tried to make reservation but no reservation is allowed.
Being good hosts, all the gank decided to go ahead, so my compatriot picked me up, and we were the first to arrive among the rest of the gank member. The crowd was quite okay, but looked like the queue system is a bit messy, so my compatriot who's having a very short fuse, quite furious with the waiter (or we called it Mas) while trying to pester him in getting a space, until that "mas" gave up and replaced by the other "mas". Trying to avoid any inconvinient that might arise, I told my compatriot,"You step aside lah, let me handle him".
So I tried using my best performance to pester the "mas", but then that nite I was not in the mood, so my performance was very poor, and by the time the rest of the gank arrived, it was like i was in cross junction *sigh*
But luckily, finally we got a space, after that another problems arose *sigh* Most of the best dishes were out of stock, and everybody was complaining, except me and some of the man (some of my compatriots have got married, and luckyy enough to get a patient husband). The waitress, which we called "mbak", face started to black, being have the longest fuse among all of my gank, I tried to save the situation again by telling my gank," It's okay lah, if they don't have it, that means I have to come back to Jakarta again to get those dishes, doesn't it?" So they cooled down, and order something else.
On the other hand, I'm still trying my luck just in case we could get all those sold out things by telling the "mbak","Sorry yah mbak, actually I'm coming all the way from Singapore to eat these special dishes, coz I'm 1 month pregnant and I'm craving for all those food, if you don't mind, please help us to try your best to get those dishes that is not available now..." *tanduk mulai keluar*
And of course everybody was clapping, laughing and screaming (I mean in our table), which made all the people turned the head towards us *blush*, but anyway they din't know what's happening lah...*phew*
The "Mbak" melted down, and now have a red face, and I felt like the star in mentos advertisement, crazy or what? pregnant? craving? *evil face* wakakakkakakkaka.... but in the end we still couldn't those sold out dishes, but at least I'd tried.
Come back to that pregnancy and craving things, I'll make sure when I'm pregnant my craving will be having pastry in the cafe in front of Eiffel Tower, Eating bagels in front of the Liberty Statue, Eating hot dog in Woolloomoolloo, Eating Nandos in Bondi Beach, Eating Pizza in front of Pisa Tower, touch the Sphynx nose, and etc...good luck to my husband then wakkakakakakkaa....
After that I think the "mbak" felt guilty for not being able to fulfill my wish, so it's a different waiter again serving our table....
Well when we left, the "mas" who was in charge of assigning the table said,"Thank you Ibu Diana..." Nah loh....my compatriot had been marked by the "mas" wakkakakakka....
Remembering all of them having a short fuse, so I've started to worry, for my next stop, Bali, is it going to be a Boot Camp or Holiday? *sigh*
Moral of story it's okay to tell white lie to save the situation, so everybody is happy...

A Letter to My Best-est Friend

Dear my best-est friend Sari Yuliana,
It feels like yesterday when we knew each other during the Trisakti Orientation, looking for all those stupid stuffs that senior asked us to find, high and low, here, there and everywhere.
Studying together, sending song dedication to each other till the operator knows us very well *blush*
Coming early in the morning during exams so that we could revised together (hearing you reading the summary to be exact *blush*). Living together with 10 others during TLP time...
Running away from class whenever we wanted to, you're my best company, and most of all the trip to Lombok on year 2000, that's the most beautiful things that I've ever done in my life *sigh* I just wish I could turn back the time *sambil nyanyi* to that trip again *pray*
When the two of our family merged together, what a wonderful experience...anyway I.... you very much *hueeekkk...eh bener lohhh*, You're one in a million *nyanyi lagi* or may be the only one on earth that has a very beautiful heart and soul. I'm very lucky to get to know you...and you're my best-est friend ever
Remember what I told you that become our motto? Don't stop studying until you find your soulmate, and nowwwww...it's proven, isn't it? *wicked smile*
No matter how much I....you *hueekkk*, I know someday you'll be with somebody else *duh gatel gue nulisnya wkakakakakka* just like Rick Price say in the "Heaven Knows"

And if you really love her
You gotta set her free

So know I let you go withRudi Sunarto. And Rudi, I would say, you're the most lucky man on earth, and I know you're a very good man as well, I trust you to take good care of my friend, wish you all the best to start your new chapter in your life...all thru your life you'll be by each other side till death due us (inclusive me lah ya pleaseeee...) apart *nyanyi lagi*
With a lotsa love
xoxo
Badtzumaru Your siamese twin
Moral of story....haven't got any boyfriend or girlfriend, continue your study, see that living example above? *winks*
Now...Ke Jakarta aku kan kembaliiiiiiiii.... *nyanyi lagi*
Sorry I don't think I could do Kopi Darat this trip but may be next time yaaaaa...
Have a nice week end everyone *hugs*

Bloody B*ST*RD

Sorry for the foul title, anyway b*st*rd is the one that people always use on Hotdog, isn't it? *plesetan* Ooops that one is mustard lah *grin*
Anyway...I tought dealing with a man should be easier than dealing with woman who most of the time is having unreasonable behaviour ,driven with emotion and brainless...(sorry woman, even though I'm a woman I agree there are a lots of woman like that, but there are a little amount of woman who have good quality, for example me lah *pe de abies* and of course like you woman who read my blog *try to save myself*)
But then I'm wrong ladies and gentleman, this guy who I'm dealing with is more poisonous than the snake *sigh* Have a face like an angel, with a sneaky eyes, but I've never expected that he would be that poisonous *sigh*
Well, my company comitted a mistakes, I've forgiven the person who made mistakes, and I don't even care about it...and I'm a fair and square person, a mistake is indeed a mistake, I face it like a man...(oopsss...I'm a woman dink *nyengir*), I took on the responsibilities that I have to bear, but then sometime people like to use a chance upon mistakes...it's okay..come on play with me...face me...I'm not scared lah....
Then I found out that beforehands, the mistakes made by his poisonous staff also, my company became an escape goat *boiling*, it's okay....come on and play...I'll play whatever game you wanna play, b*st*rd...Come play with me...*wicked smile*
It's a real and cruel world, where justice has already dissapeared don't know where, may be go shopping, that's why can't find justice *grin*

Surprise Surprise...

Surprise 1
I've forgotten that I used to have diarrhea before my exam, til yesterday I started to go back and forth to the toilet *sigh* Old habit never dies *sigh*
Surprise 2
When I arrived at the school, there was my other class mate in front of me, but by the time I appeared inside the class, some of my classmates kan cheong (=eager, napsu) -ly shouted out,"Flonaaaa, sit here..."
Jreng...my face turned red, coz first my classmates in front of me is going to take my seat *pai seh* then because of that incident she had to go somewhere else to sit. secondly, the teacher also surprised why suddenly I became very famous *blush*
Yupe, I don't know why I suddenly became famous instantly, inside the class I'm not a very good student, most of the time I got lost in answering the question as well though *confused* anyway the new star has born *pe de abies*
Anyway don't ask me how was the exam, now I don't want to think whether I could pass or not, still have 2 more days to go *sigh*
Lemme go toilet first yakkkkk *nyengir*

Restless Week End

What you expect when your compatriot is in town with her husband to be? Of course you'll have to accompany them regardless what your condition is, won't you? Hints: Compatriot though *wink*
So the whole week end I become an official liason officer for my compatriot of course *bangga* well, the test for her hubby to be was not done by me though, remember I'm not a badgirl *wink* It was done by her friend when she was in Canada, Singaporean army and his wife, and of course I just added up to make it worse *tanduknya mulai keluar*
It was a very crazy week end, until I lost my voice *sigh* staying up till morning, shopped *teteup*, chatted, poked fun on them *sigh* Can't wait for Bali trip ...

Ritual

Thanks for all your concern friends *hugs* I hope I'll be recovering soon...
Ritual 1
Being grounded doesn't mean I'll stay at home whole day though *grin* For sure I will not be able to sleep during the day, and I can't sit still at home as well of course *bangga* As per what my mom always says,"I can't remember I crave for crabs during my pregnancy, but why you can't stay still?" *blush*
Remembering yesterday was the first day of PC show, so after lunch I decided to check on it as based on my yearly ritual which go there on 1st day to collect brochures and aiming on what to buy, and buy on the last day as they will slice the price especially at the end of the day. But this last fews computer show, I always buy on the 1st day also, coz the crowds is so unbelieveable *nyanyi*
Even though I felt very giddy all the way, but I believe if I fainted, surely a lot of people would help me *pe de abies* This year, quite weird, no camera exhibitor, they do sell camera but under retailer. They even have a big electronic company like Best Denki and Courts putting up the stall. And the most annoying of all of course the stupid insurance company that trying to sell their product by bluffing people to join sure win lucky dip (of course they can't bluff me lah), and they kept on saying,"Excuse me can I have your time for 5 minutes, please?" *gondok*
As I've spent too much at Great Singapore Sale already, so I don't have much money left to spend for the computer show *sad* Anyway my saliva was drolling over these 4 products, the in focus projector (this one has been my dream over the years to have the projector tv) *sigh*
Next one is Nokia N-93, wow very cool, huh? Luckily hasn't been launched *phew* But then that XDA Atom is soooo tempting *sad* but I kept on telling my self,"not this time flona, not this time, unless you strike lottery, then you can buy lah.." In fact, I seldom buy lottery *nyengir*
Lastly, of course the Xbox 360, the graphic is sooo damn clear *sigh* but then I still have Play Station and Xbox at home...
Eh I've written down so many brand, so will I get endorsement huh? *as usual*
Ritual 2
Among most of school my friends, I'm the eldest, even though only by month *blush* but still old is old lah *sebel*, unless from my UNSW time, most of them are older than me *happy* Anyway out of plans, suddenly the 2 of my best friend who are going to get married next week and the following week, the husband to be come to Singapore *happy* as though they have to pay respect to me as the elderly *sigh*, the first one was here last week, sent by the company for training...so I spent some time to accompany him around Singapore lah, I've known him quite sometime, coz he and my best friend always accompany me around when I'm in Jakarta.
The second one, will come this Saturday, with my best friend, nah this one need to be "Plonco" nih.....I haven't met him so far, so you know how is my capability in doing such work huh? I wish it's going to be a good week end for me, but then my japanese exam how? *teteup*
Happy week end everyone....

Finally....

Ladies and gentlemen, girls and boys, I'm proudly announce that finally....I'm grounded Booooo......*yay* ooopsss..has to be *sad* isn't it?
Yupe I'm sick, after seeing a doctor yesterday with all kinds of complaints which link one and another, final conclusion, because of stress, my body resistance is low, so I catch a flu which develop now *smile*
Now I feel,very tired, dizzy, sneezing all the time, running nose (which make me looks like kampong kids *devil smile*). Even in this pigeon hole (that's how I called HDB flat though *smile*), walking from living room to my bed room, I feel very longggg and winding roaddddd... *nyanyi padahal got sore throat*
I think better fall sick lah, other than I have to suffer all the time, at least by being sick, I'll be clearing the virus and toxin after I recovered, isn't it? Hopefully will not be suffering from all those draggy things, like the Indonesian saying," Habis Gelap Terbitlah Terang" *ngelirik Bunda Shafiya*
And suddenly I miss that long drive, from city to Parramatta, taking Anzac Bridge, and drive all the way....eh..protest it's not allowed, yeah I know it's a stupid way to reach Parramatta by taking that way, but I swear by the moon and the star in the sky *nyanyi lagi* all those scenic drive, is wroth to drive for *copy cat Robinson sale ads*
park the car in Parramatta mall, then walk towards city hall, buy Hungry Jack (in here is Burger King lah..yeah junk food, but don't care), sitting in the city hall square, had lunch and people watching, then continue to walk inside Parramatta Park, day dreaming all the way, it's soooo perfect and romantic in Sydney weather now....ehhh Agnes you can do it what, I suspect Agnes will do this after work *nuduh* hehehhehehheh....eh today late night shopping yah...so Agnes will walk in Parramatta Mall instead for sure lah *yakin*
Good news last nite, there were a mock up listening test for the Japanese class, so far I'm doing good lah, can pass...and my pray for this exam is not very high, I realised as I'm getting old, there are a lot of things has changed, so pass can already lah *smile*

Jrenggg....

It's 30th May *sigh*
Japanese Class exam next week, my mind is bloody blank *fainted*
My gigs 2 more week (I suspect next week will be a gigs also *parno*), no confidence to sing in front of lotsa people, coz usually I sing facing the wall *smile*
Started to have nightmare everynight, sleep quite early, but couldn't wake up, by the time I wake up, feel very tired, every day *sigh*
Migraine is my best friend now *smile*
Oh My God, scream to the top of my lung, what's going on? *Nyanyi*

Yogya

My deep condolescence for my country for the earthquakes that happened on Saturday.
I read from the newspaper some of the "candi" are badly damage. What a disaster *shocked*, I still haven't completed all my list in Yogya during my previous stay *regret*
Actually I was planning to go Yogya to see "Ramayana Epic Dance" these next few months *sigh*, now Prambanan even suffers a damage *sigh*
Hopefully, everything is gonna be allright in Yogya lah ya...

Lost In Translation (Part 2)

See the photo above? 2 girls wearing traditional clothes of Northern Thailand. The story happened when I was in Chiang Rai. I got down from the car, and the 2 girls approached me and saying something sounds like a rhyme in their language.
of course I couldn't understand what they were saying, but I assumed, they were quoting a poet for getting some money from me. But then when the tour guide spoke to me in English, the girls changed her rhyme to English as well.

Two person, take photo
Five Bahts only, Ok?

So actually they wanted us to pay them 5 bahts for taking photo with them or just take their photo...hmmm quite innovative...Sadly speaking I didn't try to maximise my 5 bahts when I took their photo *regret* coz I know that they have a lot of opportunity around, as a lot of tourists down there, I just felt unfair if I took a long time just only for 5 baths *it's very me*
So if on week end you saw me and my partner in crime, wearing sarong and kebaya (which is so called Singapore's traditional clothes), hanging around Merlion or Esplanade, and saying the same rhyme, you know who's my inspiration, huh?
Have a nice week end everyone...

New Staff

Finally my receptionist girl has gone away, she quit the job last week *lega*
I couldn't find out the exact reason, coz one time she said that it's too tired for her to travel back and forth to Johor everyday, but another day she said that she will try to help the younger sister to find a job in Singapore *bingunk*
Anyway, just imagine the last frustation that i got from her when I was in Japan. I needed her to access my email account and print something out, but she even couldn't access my email account *fainted* Luckily my delivery driver was around, so I asked my delivery driver to do instead *pasrah*
So now, meanwhile the position vacuum, I get my cousin (I have Singaporean cousin though..) to replace her, so far so good, at least with my cousin around, I speak Chinese better now, and I'm happier when I'm in the office, coz you know, how young people like to fool around, but I don't mind, as longas she do her job well.
The jokes is, she was afraid to be alone inside the office, so she asked my permission to get her sister to accompany her in the office *sigh*, I don't mind though, so they're sharing the salary....
I feel like it's great singapore sale in my office, buy 1 get 1 free ...waakkakakakka....

Someday I'll Fly Away

When I was young, I thought that I'll be immortal, people die, because they're old, but when I grew older I learn that everybody will die one day...inclusive me...
These past few years, lotsa deaths of people that I know, if the people who passed away is about my grandma levels it's still okay, but then my dad started to lose some of his siblings *sigh* the latest shocking news is one of my dad's distance cousin, which quite close to our family, die suddenly in his sleep...well..someday we all will fly way

Tired

Since I came back from the last trip, I've been feeling tired day in day out, is it holiday blues? lazy? too much holiday? *gak mungkin*
or my body has telling me it's time to move out from Singapore? *grinned*

Lost In Translation

I believe most of you ever receive jokes about Japanese English through emails. I didn't really observe all those grammar mistakes when I was in Tokyo though, but this one is the only one that is quite obvious to me, see the photo above, rinse? weleh...do they mean conditioner instead of rinse? *smile*
As you know I'm taking Japanese class, and I can ask questions, but by the time they provided me with the answer, I really lost in translation. so if I asked for direction or place I tried to point the map as I was afraid I would mispronounce the wrods, I also have to observe their body language when they answered. But then, when I called one of my friend who's married to Japanese and stayed there for ages *ngelirik ci kim*, I was so confidently spoke Japanese to her son, as I was expecting she was at home at that time, and the answer should had been,"Hai, cioto mate kudasai". (=yes, please wait a moment)
To my surprise, her sons blabbering a lots of Japanese sentences, which I believed the meaning is about the mother is not available to answer my phone...but with a very high fighting spirits, I just tried my luck to speak English..luckily they can speak English very well, yupe, the mother is not around *sigh*
Really lost in translation....
Have a good week end everyone

Kiasu

Last nite I was at GG<5 (1 of the fashion shop in here), Wisma Atria, quite a lot of people there. When I was browsin thru all the clothing, suddenly 1 girl, holding a stack of clothings approached the staff, and said," Excuse me, Are these clothings going to be on sale during the Great Singapore Sale next week?"
Jreng.....so kiasu and shameless or not? Why don't she just wait until next week and see whether those clothes will be on sale or not? *sigh*

Competitive Edge

Still remember my office's neighbour, the one who always feels they are the eldest brother and the richest in the world? That couple, auntie and uncle, where the uncle is very stack up meanwhile the auntie is very chatty but busy body and proud of her self (you know that type of look lah, friendly but proud of her self)?
Nah....after that camera outside my door, of course, I tried my best to pose in front of it, pretending I were trying hard to open my door, but actually I just wanna let the uncle or the wife has a good look of how do I dress my self up *muka jail*
According to trustworthy source, now the auntie, dressed up exactly like me, remember before hand I was so into street wears, and she also copied me, a few months back I changed my dressing again and she imitated me again *rolled eyes* I just don't understand how could she get the size from mango and zara...and now I'm more into polo shirt and khaki pants, I wanna seee how fast can she pick it up *evil smile*
Then last week, I just bought 1 set of golf club, and I purposedly brought it down to my office (actually I don't intend to keep it at home lah, take too much space), just in time the uncle was outside and kept on staring at my golf bag *happy*
The latest news is, they changed their car to mercedes benz *jreng* just because I changed my car a few months back (they had changed their car twice before I got my current car), which at that time I was pretty sure they will change the car pretty soon, now my expectation came true...wakakakkakakak....
Should I buy another flashy week end car then? *wicked smile*
It's very competitive down here, isn't it? wakakakakaka....
Ohhh how I looooveeeee this game *NBA action*

The Navigator

Hi all, I'm back. Sorry for the delay for Chiang Mai photo, based on my schedule, I should have been uploaded them in the last posting before my trip, but due to heavy work load *cailah...* I couldn't make it on time. I just landed early this morning about 1.30 a.m. from Tokyo, I departed on time, but yet, the traffic in Narita Airport was bloody busy last nite, and there were an aeroplane massive traffic jam. When my flight took off, I was counting, there were 10 planes behind mine *shocked* It's realy a massive traffic jam, isn't it?
Now here I am, back to my sweet office *muntah darah* facing all the things again with a very bad migraine...it's just like a dream *sigh*
I bought free and easy (just ticket and hotel), and as usual I travel like Amazing Race *nyengir*. I was leaving Singapore on Wednesday around midnite, and arriving in Tokyo very early in the morning, checked in to the hotel and started to explore around after that with the phone kept on ringing all day long, talking about works *sigh*

The picture above is the Tokyo's Train Map, confusing, isn't it? Looks like all strangled together *grinned* But being voted as the living yellow pages (now already retired from this job due to insufficient memory because of ageing*blush*), the loyalIndonesian Ambassador in every country I am in, next in line of Director Singapore Tourism Board and the best ever GPS live system by all my friends. Of course that map is not a big problem at all, only on second day, I'm having a bit of brain error, so about 2 times, I went to the wrong platform *blush*
When I visited Taipei last year, I was saying,"OMG they have a lotsa of lines and it's quite troublesome when you have to change train, also the walking distance from the exit quite far".
But then when I was in Shanghai last year as well, the distance is even further than Taipei, and now in Japan, with strangled train lines, and the distance is really a killer, no wonder Japanese have a sexy leg *sigh*
Anyway, even though I'm still in my Japanese classes, my Japanese speaking ability still not far from about 15 years ago, when my dad importing goods from Japan, and that Japanese uncle was staying in Jakarta for 6 months (3 months in the hotel and he decided to moved in to my house for the rest of his stay). But of course better lah, I could ask some complete questions, but when they started to talk to me in Japanese, I was lost in translation *kayak pelem* wakakakaka.....
So mostly I was communicating with my limited Japanese survival ability, helped by sign language and some Japanese style English *nyengir*
Allrighty...I guess I sign off now, and wait for another update about Japan...

Ill Feel

Starting from from the flight back to Singapore from Chiang Mai last trip, I feel very ill of coming back to Singapore. Especially when I came back to do my daily activities *sigh* I don't have an ill feel towards my clients luckily, but towards other people,especially those who acted kiasu-ly, even to the extend when I go to the toilet and I heard a group of girls or aunties, speaking Singlish (even though I also speak singlish fluently *nyengir*), I'll start to have this feelings *sigh*
Anyway last week, when I was having lunch @ Dome, Paragon, it was full of bling - bling tai tai, which wore branded from top to toe, and the ring is oh so huge, until I thought is that real diamond or glass...but then as I watched their behaviours, OMG very minus. One table, she was about to pay, and she's holding a Dome card, which you could redeem for something, but then because of some promotion or what, she couldn't use the card, ans she started to lose her temper at the waitress *jibang* come on lah, she's so bloody rich, it's only over how many dollars only, might be less then 50 dollars, but she insisted about it *sigh*
There is another table, auntie and the son, they didn't seem ordering food, their table were quite clean except the drinks during my stay there, and they walked out for quite sometimes, the table had been cleaned, then somebody else seated on their table, then that auntie came back, and told the person,"Sorry, this table is mine..."
OMG *again* there are plenty of empty table around there, why she should insisted of having that table *puzzled* May be if you were rich, you gotta behave that way?
And then yesterday I was in the embassy, just stepped out my foot out of the car, and then suddenly saw that uncle running after parking his motorbike, just to have a number 1 ahead of me? *shocked* OMG, is Singapore so competitive until 1 queue number also become so bloody important? *sigh*
Well, that's life in here, so after feeling ill for about a week or so, let me have another joyfull moment ya....I'll be dissapeared again to Timbuktu, It's a plaaaaaayyyyyy time *like NBA*
Well, have a nice long week end everyone, happy Vesak day for you who celebrate, I'll be back next week *hugs*
Sorry though haven't blogwalk to all of you....

Wadoh Udah Bulan Mei Cink

Finally, I land and glue back to my beloved office chair...it's not because of long holiday though, but just lotsa things that I have to do outside the office as well (of course inclusive hanging out in the cafe and window shopping during office hours) *grin*
Anyway back to my work, I was quite surprise it's May...wow ime flies...1 more month to go for my gigs in Bali *sigh* and I haven't made up my mind of which song should I sing...I'm trying my best to escape from my duty, but everybody (I mean my gank...) already reminding me from email, and the bride to be had talked to me directly over the phone *sigh*
Could you imagine, it's the private party, where all my gank's member would be there (all of them are very wilds and louds, except me, yes, my face always turn red when I'm out with them, because of their noise) cheering me during my performance, and it's also a private party, which would be attended by the family (I'm very famous amongs the brides family member though, the whole extended family knows me quite well, from grandma to aunties *sigh*) and of course her father and her business relations which will fly from Jakarta, Singapore and may be France...
Some more it will be a 4 pieces string orchestra *jiper* With the string orchestra, nothing could help your voice, it's easier sing with the band, so your voice would not be exposed directly, duh what choice do I have then?
Oh my God, it will be a Dead or Alive event, I might be thrown away from the cliff if I sung badly (the party would be in Uluwatu, it's a very scary cliff man....), or I might be offered a contract to produce the album *pe de abies* if I sung well...
Anybody wanna replace me puhleaseeeee??? Or should I do lipsync? weleh kayak millie vanilli donks...wakakkakakkaka...gak mutu amat seehhhh..hare geneeehh? lipsync?
Oh ya don't forget to watch Singapore Idol on 22 May yaa... (will I get endorsement or not ar?)

Alice in Wonderland

Well, that's Alice, but too bad my name is not Alice, but Flona.
Since a long time ago I have started to wish that some days I'd woken up to find that it's only a nightmare *sigh*
But right up to now every day I wake up, the reality is geting worse *sigh*
Anyway.. have a nice week end everyone...

The Sign

I'm not talking about the movie though *nyengir*
I've been wondering for these past few weeks, every monday and wednesday, the sky is always dark...as though the world feel sad for me...
Yupe my Japanese class, getting harder and out of controls...
I've never expected there are so many particle inside depends on the verb *sigh* and as getting older the brain not really working that well *sigh again*
So should I say,"I saw the sign..." *nyanyi*

Tuk Tuk

Weleh udah pada nagih poto *takut*
When I was in Bangkok, I was also afraid to take Tuk Tuk, just like Shierly *grin* There are 2 things that I consider:
1. Tuk Tuk driver in Bangkok drives crazily with a full speed (just like the Visa advertisement, may be because of that kali ya...that's why Tuk tuk is used for the ads *grin*)
2. Bangkok is quite similar with Jakarta, I just imagined, what if when the traffic light turned red and the Tuk tuk had to stop a the traffic junction, suddenlt the robber came and robbed me, just like Jakarta? *parno*
But anyway when I was in Bangkok I felt that the safety level is much more better than Jakarta, but still, I don't like to take Tuk Tuk in Bangkok, the speed itu loh...even though I love to speed but I'm the one who take control, but with Tuk tuk, the steering is on the "abang" hand lah yauuuu....*seyem*
In Chiang Mai, there are 2 oopps... later on I found out there 3 public transport, Tuk Tuk, and red car, I forgot what the name, it like combination of bemo and mikrolet in jakarta, so the seating arrangement is facing each other, but the door is at the back...ahh like "oplet" (nah loh if you don't know oplet, that's means either you're not Indonesian or you are Indonesian but not enough age to reach my blog *wicked smile*), but the car is a covered utes type (if you don't know utes...I also don't know what to explain...*sigh* itu loh tipenya mobil box bangsanya Chevrolet, Datsun, tapi pake cover kaya bemo turun di belakang deh *pasrah*)
Anyway when I arrived at the airport, waiting for the car that supposed to pick me up, I was amazed, seeing, some people even take tuk tuk to the airport, and also that red car (first i tought may be the family member of thw owner wanna go to the airport, but actually no)
So I ended up taking Tuk Tuk when I went around the Chiang Mai city, and then 1 nite, I found the handsome, intelligent, educated, speak very good english and very kind tuk tuk driver *mata ijo* He asked me where had I been so far, so I told him and he asked when I'm going to leave...but so far almost everything covered, so I couldn't have any excuse to book him, even though he put his handphone number in his tuk tuk *nyesel* wakakkkaka...He asked me how was Chiang Mai. I said,"It's a very beautiful city with a warm and kind people.
He answered,"Basically every where is the same, there are 2 types of people, the good one and the bad one, just happened in Chiang Mai has more good people than bad people."
Wow...so philosophical huh? weleh, cakep, macho, baik, bijaksana, pinter ... very perfect, huh? *mata ijo lagi* It's just too good to be true *nyanyi* May be he's a gay? *suspicious* wakakkakaka....
Want to move to Singapore or not Bang? *nyengir* Or should I move to Chiang Mai huh? *evil smile*
PS: Warning, don't rush to go to Chiang Mai just simply because of my story of Tuk Tuk driver ya...that one is only one in million Tuk Tuk driver lah ya (eh ada 1 million Tuk tuk driver gag ya? *muka polos*) Ntar gue disalahin lagi...mending kalo gue dapet endorsement dari Thai tourism authority..kalo kaga kan rugi bandar wakakakkaka....

I'm back *sad*

Here I am back to Singapore again *sad*
I don't know why, this time, when the aeroplane touched down at Changi Airport, I feel terribly sad...
Anyway I went to Chiang Mai, based on my opinion, it's a bit messy but the temples are beautiful, I even went to Chiang Rai to see Long Neck Village and Golden Triangle (border of Thailand with Laos and Myanmar).
The people are very friendly, warm and polite in Chiang Mai, better than those in Bangkok (big city lah..), or Phuket (contaminated with money from tourist already I guess).
The girls are quite pretty and the boys are quite handsome, now I do understand if people said Thai people are pretty and handsome *mata ijo*
I don't know why during my stay there, every where I went, everybody speak to me in Thai Language, but when I was in Bangkok, not so much incident like this...or may be I'm as pretty as northern Thailand people yak? *pe de abies* wakakkakaka.....
The food was very fantastic and cheap, till I got gastric problems (what you expect when everyday had to eat spicy and sour food) which of course lead to panick attack *innocent face*
Now I just landed, and went straight to the office Joooo *sedih*
Back to life back to reality....*nyanyi*

Transition

Mandi pagi tidak biasa
Mandi sore tidak biasa
Tidak mandi sudah biasa
Badan Bau luar biasa

Remember Yoan Tanamal? *jadul banged* Sing that song with the melody of her song, if not mistaken the title is "Mandi Pagi". If you don't know who Yoan Tanamal is, means that you haven't been reaching enough age to read my blog, please ask your parents consent *devil smile* wakakaka becanda dinks...Please don't ask me where did I do my kindergarten, if my teacher found out about that song, they would kill me for bringing shame to my almamater *wicked smile*, for sure it's one of Christian school in Jakarta..keep on guessing mate ...wakakkakaka...and for you who are not Indonesian, too bad lah ya...so convert to become Indonesian lah *encourage* (will I get endorsement from Indonesian Foreign Ministry or not? wakakakka...)
Anyway, fast rewind, 6 years and about 4 months ago, I was travelling in a tour group Java, Bali and Lombok by lands, and I had to share room with my partner in crime in Jakarta and her sister for about 2 weeks, so 3 of us in a room, share a bathroom, no problem at all...at that time take a bath is a basic needs, habits....I still didn't know what the importance of applying moisturiser every day, I only bring my sun block with me, that's all...
Fast forward, 6 years and 4 months later, last week end to be exact, I have to share a hotel room with my new recruit of partner in crime, only 1 nite, and I found problem of sharing bathroom, as both of us see bath is not a basic need anymore, bt more to luxurious need, a ritual. We need to spend longer hours in the bathroom...and moisturise properly, and I know the body and face moisturiser is different, so the amount of things that I have to bring when I stay outside my house is increased tremendously...*blush*
Anyway...long week end here in Singapore...so I would like to inform you that I'm going to Timbuktu Island again *innocent smile*.....It's play time...don't miss me, I'll be back next week...and have a nice week end *hugs*

Nasib orang siapa tau?

Before I start, let me tell you I've changed the song in my blog, the title is "Mas Que Nada" it was an old song by sergio mendes, but this one is remix version by Sergio Mendes still featuring Blak Eyed Peas..I always like this songs since the old version, sounds quite sexy though...
I received a shocking email from my friend. Let me introduce his background first, I met him in Junior High School, he held the top student position every year without failed during Junior high school meanwhile me, in top 15 enough lah ya...*nyengir*
We were in the same class on year 3 junior high school, where I got to know him closer, simply because every algebra and geometry class, we always spent time together outside the class, grounded by the teacher. The first 4 weeks of the class, the teacher held evaluation test for the class, the result came out 3 of us, me, him and another friend, always scored high, so the teacher said to us,"You're too good to be inside the class, please stay outside when I'm teaching the class.."
Yupe, not fair, but we were happy enough to be outside....We went to the same Senior high school, I mean he and me, but the other guy I didn't know where he is...during the senior high school, he also performed well, always in top 3, but me of course quite far behind lah ya....
He always be sent for representing school for all those magic competition (math, chemistry, physics olympic), even could reach up to world competition. When we were graduated, not being able to go to Japan by scholarship, he tried to struggle his own, and I knew finally he got scholarship from japan university, and lately I met him, he is doing his PhD on scholarship also, and still in Japan *ngelap keringet*
I still remember freshly all the silly jokes we share outside the class when we were grounded, on first year of senior high school, we were team mates in Biology lab, and when we had to cut all those animal (lizard, frog, pigeon and rabbit), he just stay away from the table and held his handkerchief tightly to his mouth and looking very pale, with watery eyes, so I just simply told him,"Stay away, let me do the dirty job..." Yupe I was cold blooded at that time...*blush*
Suddenly I received an email from him saying,"Hey, I'm moving to Singapore next June to become assistant Proff at NTU.." *gubraks*
I replied his email still in a shock state of mind,"Is it hard to get a job in Japan? Why do you have to move to Singapore..."
He replied,"I've got a few offers down here, but still Singapore is offering the best, besides, my family all are in Singapore.."
Still speechless until now, I replied,"Okay...see you in June..."
Gilaaaaa... that cute little Henry? Assistant Proffessor? *pingsan*
I knew that he will be in academic sector, but assistant proffesor? my own friend? and now? waduh...masih shock *pingsan lagi*
I wonder how's the other guy doing, Shintooooo where are you mate? Don't tell me if you become Proffessor that Henry has to assist? *siap2 pingsan*
Can't be lah yaa.....but who knows what tomorrow will hold? rite mate?

Rontok

Being forced to exercise thru the whole week end, yesterday morning I felt my body disintegrated...like every parts has been fallen apart, piece bu piece *sigh*
Actually not forces my self lah, just tried my best to use the facilities that I had during week end. I swam on Saturday afternoon, and Sunday morning (which includes sun tanning session of course, remembering my new recruit of partner in crime is in the mission to get more tan *sigh*)
Still felt strong, Sunday nite, I went to the driving range to practice, even though arriving there then I realised that I'd forgotten that I left my gloves in the office for washing, I just tought,"One time play without gloves won't do any harm.."
As usual, I bought 45 balls, being excited with my best performance (in Singapore) so far, but I could reach further when I was in Sydney though, I bought another 45 balls *blush*
But after Ball number 60, I felt very tired, partly because the weather so humid after the afternoon rain, my shirt was drenched with sweat, felt like taking off my shirt, considering there was nobody behind me and only 1 uncle quite far in front of me *nyengir* but considering the uncle might have a break anytime, I tried not doing that lah, later on if he fainted, I don't know what to do wakakakka...may be I hav to make a break thru in golf costume, by wearing bikini ya? wakakkakakka....
So I tried my best to finish all the balls, by taking break every now and then, reaching ball no 80, I couldn't even stand straight any more, when I finished, I had to use the golf club to support my self *sigh*
As a result my skin is very dry and red no because of the swimming and sun tanning, meanwhile my palm also sore because of not wearing the gloves on Sunday *sigh* and of course still feel my whole body ache...Rontok Jooooo

My God Sister Bday Party

Remember my story about my god sista had been spending her holiday mostly with me and my partner in crime? So after considering that she's not up to our standard of being a teenager, I decided to throw a birthday party for her last Saturday. She has turned 18 on last Thursday (I sent sms on Wed though *blush* and nearly forgotten on Thursday *blush again*).
I'd been asking her since a few months back, which club she wants to go for her 18th birthday, as this age is the legal age to go clubbing, so for in here, they celebrate more on 18 or I think 21 is taken more seriously compared with us, Indonesian, 17th...anyway she could't make a choice, luckily, because, even though she asked for going to Ibiza, Spain, I would fulfilled her wish though *nyengir jahat* wakakkaka...hey sista, if you read this posting you must be having a second regret wakkakakkakakkakak....
Anyway, as I found a new recruit for partner in crime, so the party supposed to be 4 of us, and I'd booked a hotel stay as well....unfortunately on Saturday morning I received sms from my sista,"Jie jie, I think I can't come to stay over in your place, coz next week I have a lot of exams, so sorry leh, can postpone the party to next week, instead?"
OMG PDA, after so many co-ordination that I did, she couldn't make it, so I consult my original partner in crime, firstly she said no fun if the birthday gal is not around, but as usual, I know her weaknesspoint, then I shot her by offering to have martini party instead, so she agreed *evil face*
So the party must go on lah, with or without birthday girl, so we hang out in Chijmes on Saturday nite, 3 of us, the first round table convention *wicked smile* gossiped over tapas, martinis, and sangria they drink, but I only tasted a bit of drink, they forbid me to drink, as they scared I got panick attack, besides I also drove...
As a naughty by nature person, of course, I called my god sista from the bar, and we shouted Happy Birthday to her, and told her that we were celebrating her birthday *alasan* and not forgetting to tell her about the hotel stay as well, of course she felt very regret, she asked me why I didn't tell her earlier that I'd booked the hotel, I said,"It's a surprise mah...."
she said,"Can you book the hotel again for my next year birthday?"
My partner incrime shouted,"Yeah, sure for your 28th birthday party..."
God sista,"why have to wait so long?"
I said,"8 is a symbol of prosperity mah, so we have to wait for another 8 lor.." wakakkakakaka....
She said sadly,"Ow okay..."
Doh kasian deh elo....well, we talked till midnite, scared that my car would turned into pumpkin (like cinderella story), we left the tapas bar..no lah...we felt pai seh (=gak enak hati)lah..imagine, when 2 or 3 Indonesian together, what noise that we could produce (eh not me lah ya..I only acted as cheers girl only lah *blush*) and I don't know how many people has already changed from our surrounding table, and they'd asked for last order for food already...
But...when we passed Insomnia (one of the club inside Chijmes), my partner in crime, was tempted to go in, so we went in lah...weleh that place full of hungry men, and chickens, the quality of the singer is the best so far from all the club that I've been to (in Singapore lah of course...), but can't stand those stare from hungry man. We settled down in one corner and dance, suddenly got 2 ang moh (=bule) staring at us with that type of hungry looks, so we did our usual ritual, dance passionately towards each other, so people might tought we are lesbian wakkakkakkaka....and it always work beautifully...
Well, having so much fun on Saturday, but now oh no..it's monday again, I am wondering I didn't get hang over on Sunday, but today instead *sigh*

PMS

Before I start, just wanna talk a bit first about my previous posting, is that mean I have a "Sepa" face now? Just like Singaporean? *pingsan* I always wander about people who has a "Sepa" face before, I can't stop thinking why people have to show their "Sepa-ness", now I think I know, if you live under stress for quite sometimes, then you'll have a "Sepa" face and "Sepa" attitude (for this one touch wood lah ya...don't wanna get this one *amit2*). No wonder, nowadays if go everywhere, people tend to speak Chinese to me *gubraks*
Okay, back to today posting, PMS, another controversial title *nyengir* Since young (when I've started my puberty to be exact), I'd never believed in PMS, just simply because I'd never had it before... I mean that type of moody kinda things lah..so while most of my friends have it, I always wonder, why they can behave such a way during PMS *blush* I always wonder, why I didn't behave such ways, everything was just simply normal for me, no mood change, etc...
Until these pas few years, even these past one year is getting worse, I've started to have PMS Syndrome *gubraks* It's very bloody annoying, because I don't only get mood swing, but the stomach cramps, the body ache, and even my panick attack is getting more frequent *sebel*
Unfortunately, because of stress, it makes my cycles go haywire, which results my PMS is prolonged until only God knows when it will come then stop *sedih* So I suffer worse *sigh*
It's not only me, my partner in crime, she also experience the same, so almost every month, I always received her sms,"Waduh, koq gue gak dapet2 ya, apa gue udah menopouse ape?" *gubrak* wakakkakakka
And almost every month also, she will treat me for celebrating (=syukuran) the postpone of her menopouse, coz finally her got her monthly things wakakakakkaka.....
Anyway, this month, my list has gone to:
* Mood swing --> tick
* migraine --> tick
* abdominal pain --> tick
* hips going to fall down --> tick
* Irregular heart beat --> tick
* Panick attack --> a few time a day
* Wanna kill somebody --> tick (but so far I haven't klled anybody yet *nyengir*)
And till now I'm still waiting to get over this sufferings *sigh*
Latest update, why these blood clients suddenly bombard me with a lot of jobs without earlier notice (even though seldom had any early job schedule from client), but then everybody want their job to be finished as soon as possible, is it going to be another nightmare week end again for me? *sedih*
Happy week end every one *hugs*

Hmmmmm.....

Yesterday I checked some problems that I'd encountered regarding the works with my staff over the phone, to my surprise, she sounded very scared of me, and didn't know how to explain, and tried to defend herself. But actually I just wanted to know what actually happened, and I just tried to find the root of the problem, so that I could give the solution to her *sigh*
Hmmm...I was quite surprised though, so far, in my life, I've never known there is somebody that can be scared of me....I've used to be used by other people instead...and now her? scared of me? Alamak....Or may be now I have some aura of strong charisma *confused*
And then....just right now, my receptionist was asked by me to print something, but she was looking for something, but instead of asking me who seat just right to her room, she asked somebody else? *gubraks*
So she scared of me also, I supposed *bingung* What's happened to me ya? *sambil ngambil kaca ngecek apa gue udah jenggotan dan kumisan*

Unusual Week End

Last Sunday, I went for swimming with my friend, normally I'd never gone swimming with friend, coz my swimming is not that good...and I normally swim to the width not to the length *blush*
But anyway I warned my friend that I'm not a morning person, but she still insisted it's okay, coz she wanted to get tan...so nothing to argue anymore, we arrived at swimming pool at 12.30, not too many people there *phew*
To my surprise she started to apply sun tan lotion on her body *alamak* I only apply the sun block lah....now I've repent from my old days, I want to get fairer skin lah..*grinned*
During my swimming, there were 2 kids under training...I over heard what the coach spoke to them, suddenly I felt sad....I think if I were those kids, I would not come for next week lesson...no encouragement at all....then I realised this is the way Asian people are trained...but then I recalled when I took tennis lesson back in Jakarta, even my coach didn't speak that way...*sigh* Or may be this is Singaporean way, that's why they don't have any good athlete *grinned* wakkakakakka....
As a kay poh (=busy body - hokkian) person, I looked around, wow, I even found hunky boys, only went to swimming pool to sun tan, without swimming at all *surprise*
Weleh people, any kind also have one hor *singlish* That's why I do enjoy people watching wakakkakaka.....
Oh yah..back to the story line lah ya....the result of swimming session um sun tanning...now my skin is very red (my skin will be red first for 3 days, and after that then turned tan *blush*), and I have a rosy cheek, just right below my eyes and only small area...so I look like forever friend now *blush*

Singaporean Family

I was having a late lunch at one of the small restaurant that sells Chinese Herbal Soups. It was quite crowded, so I had to seat in the long table together with 1 Singaporean Family....
While I was enjoying my lunch quietly, suddenly, one of the boys said,"Koko, 7000 divided by 3 how much ar?"
Koko said,"Will have the remainder...can not finish.."
The boy,"Ya hor, I also think so..."
Walau eh...crazy or what? Hareee geneeehh? Asking for 7000 divided by 3? During Saturday lunch on a very long week end holiday? *panick* Didn't they have any other topic to talk about meh? *singlish*
Then one of the mother (I was quite confused, there are 2 young mother but only 1 father, so? wakkakakka... I also thought is it polygamy or what? wkkakakakka...) kept on saying,"Eh traffic police come already.."
But I was wonering how come neither of them run out of the restaurant to go to their car (in Singapore we park use a coupon parking, so usually people doesn't put any coupon, but when somebody shout policeman come, then everybody will run to their car to put coupon parking *sigh*)...then I realised the mother only scared the daughter to finish her food *blush* wakakkakakak...
Come to the end of the stories, the father asked for the bill, then the auntie said about 50 over dollar, I didn't hear exactly how much...then they didn't look happy, they started to count how much the food was, and called the auntie again to explain how could it be 50 over dollars....aiyoh....this type of restaurant, usually the maths is very good one, they can do mental calculation very fast and accurate, coz it's their everyday job...how can they make mistake? *sigh*
Ah...typical Singaporean Family deh ahhh....

Women

Story 1
A few months back, I was accompanying my mom, meeting her friend in Singapore, which daughter also happened to be my schoolmate...actually when I was in Senior High School, then my mom was telling me that girl is actually her friend's daughter, so we become friend, based on her mom and my mom friendship.
In actual fact, I don't really like her, but just because she had to take the bus from outside my place, so every day we walked home together *sigh*
Anyway...during the meeting, which happened in Starbucks, we arrived first, so I bought coffees for us while waiting for them to arrive. I only brought my wallet with me, which size too big to be put inside the pocket, so i just held on to it during conversation, then I realised, eh...why that girl kept on staring on my wallet during conversation, sometime she looked at me, but later on her eye would go to my wallet again *confused*.
I started to observe what's wrong with my wallet, but nothing wrong, tried to observed myself, especially the one near to my wallet but found nothing *sigh* I was quite agitated, inside my heart, I said,"OMG what's happening with her ya?" Finally I switched my eyes to her, and found out...she was carrying Prada bag..
So I tought...oh may be that's why she kept on staring on my wallet...may be she even tought whether my wallet is genuine or fake one wakakakka....then suddenly it just stroke into my mind, by the way her Prada bag is genuine or not ya...given the fact that it's dark puprle in colour, so far I've never seen dark purple, only light purple...ahh...women...eh but I'm not the one who started loh... wakakkkakakak....
Story 2
I was in URS shop in Takashimaya, bought shoes, then when I was queueing in the cashier holding my wallet also *again*, then the customer in front of me are 2 Indonesian, one is young about my age, and the other one about my mom age...
Nah the young one, acted as though she's the richest and the most beautiful girl in the world, you know lah what I mean, that type of style, while in fact she's quite fat *rolling eyes* Then this girl also kept on staring at my wallet, I felt agitated of course, what the hell she thinks she is...
Anyway she also pulled pout her wallet, and it's the same model as me, but then I saw the leather is peeled off in some of the areas...then I started to examine mine, whether got peeled off also or not wakakkakakakka....
Then suddenly stroke to my mind some sentences from the magazine article, the genuine goods doesn't suppose to peel off, or easily damages....so meaning hers is...wakakkakakakkakka.......Women.....eh this time is not started by me lohh.....
I just feel uneasy with women who likes to envy people and try to compare with other people..so what geto loh...lah wong gue gak numpang makan sama dia koq bisa sirik abies kayak gitu...besides...I don't feel the necessity to have branded goods just because it's branded...but in the interaction with my clients, which forces me to at least try to be presentable...I'm much more into t-shirt and jeans type of person lah...
Anyway Happy Easter for you who celebrates, but if you don't then have a nice long week end...

About Me

Wakkakaka lotsa people said,"Lo kayak kebanyakan waktu ajah Flo, dah kerjaan bejibun gitu, masih sempet ajah les ini itu.."
Let me clarify...I'm a very easy distracted person.....not really ya, I have to distract my self in order to do my job properly, to be exact *blush*, so when I'm doing my work, I could open 4 different jobs in the same time, plus turn up radio or what so ever lah, plus updating blog, blog walking, play Neopets, read emails, read Kompas, look at Singapore maps, receive/make call (inclusive ngedagel lewat telpon ke temen2 gokil gue *blush*), etc lah...
Basically I'm a multitask person, if you ask me to just concentrate in 1 thing, weleh that 1 thing can go haywire for sure....even doing my job, I have to have constant break every 30 mins, my concentration can not last long *sigh*
So in order to keep my brain working, I have to engange so much activity...*blush*
Demikianlah acara press conference saya, untuk mengklarifikasi nama baik saya *senyum manies*

Golf Lessons

I've changed my golf lesson to Tuesday morning, starting from today, even though I'm hardly wake up in the morning *blush*
So this morning struggling to wake up, managed to wake up 8.45 *blush*, it was raining and heavy winds, made me even more lazy to go *sighed* showered then rushed to golf lesson, of course I was late lah *pe de*
Weleh... arrived in the driving range, found out that morning crowds mostly are tai tai (=tante tajir), everybody were properly dressed with golf attire (gue juga gak ngerti ceritanya asih belajar tapi udah pada heboh2 attire-nya), only me of course, as usual long sleeve t-shirt (pan ujan *nyengir*) plus jeans, and crocs...yupe crocs..not golf shoes *blush* (eh tukang crocs mo ngendorse gue gag ya? heheheh)...
Eh ternyata guru gue lagi ngelaba....dia lagi ngajarin mbak2 yang ada di sono, I tought I was too late (I took individual class) that's why the other class had started...later I found out si bapak lagi ngelaba *sigh*
Oh iye...my golf teacher, reminds me of Lupus..inget Lupus? duh jadul banged yaaa...ho'oh..gue kan Gen X...*ngaku* Bapaknya gak gondrong siy...but he always wears shirt with eric cantona's style plus munching gums...sun glasses..so cool...so I associate him with Lupus lah yaooo....wakakakka

Messy

Hi All, I've been very bloody busy these pas few weeks, and now even worse, as we messed up one of the job with a big client...
Deeply depressed, tired and helpless...scared of losing that client *pray very hard*
Have a nice week ahead everyone....miss you always lah...
Sudden;ly this morning I feel the urge of coming back to Jakarta, may be too tired with everything ya...but mana mungkin...update blog ajeh gak sempet *hiks*

Chocolate Class

Just finished chocolate making class, hmmm the chocolate is so cute, it's the form of fusion Easter Bunny, yupe Easter is coming mah...
Then there was this 1 annoying aunyie, I know lah she's from USA, and just happened from the same city, Philadelphia, as the chef, but then so what geto loh *sewot*.
Everything damn thing, she always asked,"Where do I get this ingredient? Is in Philadelphia also available? Alamak....want to punch her in the face....
But anyway, here is the result, cute isn't it? And the Chef also oh so damn cute *nyengir*

Yong Too Foo

For you who stay in Singapore or quite frequently travelling to Singapore, Yong Too Foo (they have different spelling lah, but you should know what I mean) will be quite familiar to you.
Yong Too Foo that I'm going to talk about is the standard one, you get a bowl, then you choose minimum 6 pcs, add mee or mee hoon or kway tiao, or rice, then you choose whether dry or soup...Nah I've been eating the same things for the past few weeks for my lunch in the office.
One day I was very lazy to go down my self, so I asked my receptionist to help me to buy lunch down stair, she asked in Chinese," Ni yao Yong Too Foo ar?"
I said,"No, can you help me to buy chicken rice..."
She asked in shocked,"Not yong too foo ar?
I said," No, chicken rice please.."
When she came back with my chicken rice, then I tried to see what she was eating....Alamak it's yong too foo *gubraks* probably she was still in shock I was not buying yong too foo, so she bought it for herself...wakakakkakaka

Tergoda

Been absent for this week Japanese class ( 2 x 2 hours), now I'm tempted to quit my Japanese class...
I don't know whether I could cope for that 2 x 2 hours lost or not...the class is quite difficult, even before I missed that 2 lessons, I did tempt to quit *sobs*
But if quit, it will be a waste, I've spent half way thru the lesson...
Arrrghhh....godaan emank selalu terasa berat...*hiks*
met wiken everyone..sorry for not blogwalking....bloody busy nih this week *hiks*

Singapore Fashion Festival

It's the hottest talk in town, Singapore Fashion Festival 2006. Every magazines, and Newspaper on certain days are writing about it. Even to the extend when I was inside the lift at Paragon, the tai tai (read as: thai thai, means: rich housewife), was busy talking about it as well *sigh* I was wondering So what a great deal for us, working class people, who will never ever get the invitation for this events...
But suddenly the star felt from the sky, I got invitation...but I was in doubt to come, coz I thought,"How to dress up? I couldn't afford to wear designer labels from top to toe, as all those socialites do..." On the other hand, I was very curious to find out how it is like to attend such a glamorours event....*grinned*
To ease my doubt, on Monday I hung around The Tent, that's what the place is called at Ngee Ann City, to observe, how the invitees dressed up...when I was in Paragon *again* I saw a few ladies, dressed up very elegantly, I became somewhat discourage...but then when the show finished I saw a mix of variety of people dressing up, coz some of them are the fashion design students...so I decided to come on Wednesday, which is last nite...
It's an okay event lah...I gotta see some of the Singapore's celebrities in person, which is some quite different from what I see from TV, and also some Indonesian rich Tai tai, that always appears in magazine every months, and according to my friend who's working in the watch industries, those rich tai tai, always be invited for almost every event....I can't imagine, if I were in their position, I'll feel very tired...may be that's why I haven't become a Tai tai yet *nyengir*
I met 1 of the girl who was working part time for me last year, she is doing her degree in fashin design in NAFA, and she is one of the usher for the event, she called me,"Flona, you still remember me?"
I said," Yes, of course how can I forget you? How are you?"
She,"I'm fine, thanks, enjoying the course..by the way you still look as cute as before leh..."
Oh my God, me? cute? *gubraks*
As usual, this type of event only providing finger food, and lotsa of wine and champagne...,"Yes, horraay...free expensive drinks..." but I only drink a bit, as I feel dizzy, and ugly..I realised that I can't drink in the public, my pores wil be opened very fast because of the alcohol, but hey..I have to drink, to warm my self up from the nasty aircon *sigh*
I always feel it's very unfair for a woman, to attend an event, we have to dress up very well, strapless or backless gown, high heel, make up, and have to suffer from the air con, but for guys, just grap t-shirt and wear a coat on top of it, very simple,but yet look very presentable and most of all they don't need to suffer from the nasty air cond *sebel*...but my friend always says,"No pain no gain, in order to look beautiful, you have to suffer..." *sigh*

Hongkong Photos

Trying to repay my debt to all of you, besides it's not nice if I suddenly dissappeared again to another Timbuktu trip before I upload my photos *nyengir*
Hereby I proudly present my Hongkong trip's Photos, don't chase me anymore ya. have a nice week end...

News Flash

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,"

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 Kaki 5 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...

Photos

Hmmm everybody asking for photos *horror* I will, don't worry, but please bear with me, coz uploading photo still have to touch up a bit here and there, at least have to resize the photos, rite?
Meanwhile I'm bloody damn busy with work, hit and run meeting *sigh*, still have to squeeze time to sit down in the office to rush the job out *deep sigh*, meanwhile have to nurse my holiday blues as well (this is the worst)....
Somebody help me pleaseeeee.....
Okay, gotta rush for another meeting...ciaooo

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?

I'm Back *smile*

Yo mates, I'm back...Kangen ora? *maksa*
Btw...I'm bloody damn sleepy, lah wong landed tengah malem, trusan sampe rumah jam 1 lewat, trus catch up sama newspaper yang udah berapa hari gak gue baca, alhasil kayanya gue baru tidur jam 2 lewat ato jam 3 gitu deh *nyesel*
Gue beneran ke Timbuktu loh....alias Disneyland *bangga* Yo'i Jo, gue ke Hongkong Disneyland. Gue berangkat kamis pagi gitu lah, trus sampe Honkong sorean gitu, tentu aja langsung shopping *semangat 45*
Oh iya...ini posting prelude ajah yak tentang schedule gue di HK, tapiiiii let me emphasis something, hasil dari holiday gue adalah, it's not only my brain that's clean, but my eyes also clean *seneng* wakakkaka....Gila Joooooo masnya di sono ganteng2 kabeh *centil*
Pas mendarat mulai dari petugas imigrasinya ajah udah guanteng, walpoun he threw back my pasport after he chopped, but he was forgiven deh....just becoz he's cute *alamak* and I still said,"Thank you, bye..." wakakkakakak....
Trus gue dah bikin jadwal pokoke hari Jumat MUSTI ke Disneyland, soale takut kalo pergi hari Sabtu, apalagi Minggu bakalan berjubel banged...mengingat, maaf..bukannya saya rasis, tapi emank begini adanya, sejak Hongkong dibalikin ke China, kalo week end, orang mainland China, berbondong2 tumpah ruah ke Hongkong *horor*
Jadi saya Jumat ke Disneyland, Sabtu shopping lagi, malemnya makan di Jumbo floating restoran itu loh...Minggu shopping lagi sampe waktunya balik ke Singapore lagi *sigh*
Dan sekarang here I am stuck in the office after holiday, still feel holidays blue *sigh* Ngantuk berat....mane entar ada les Jepang euy...bloman bikin PR, weleh gaswat

Brain Tune Up

Mateys, I need a brain tune up, so tomorrow I'm leaving to Timbuktu...
Having an early week end, and tuning up my brain...
Will be back next week...Sorry for not being able to blog walk these days..
Have a nice week end...

Mubazir

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?

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*

Kopdar....

Am I the first one who posted? *ngelirik kiri kanan* Weleh betapa napsunya guwe ya *blush* Anyway hopefully everybody is allrite after eating my food *worry* I think the amount of food not sufficient enough for all of us, but the drinks is more than enough though *nyengir*
The first time all of them arrive, they were so eager to see Nunik *sigh* not eager to see me huh? *dissapointed* wakakkakka...anyway I don't really know who managed to take Nunik photo, I think Jimmy did, didn't you Jim? *winks* But I did feel like celebrities, just like I'm holding the press conference, just because I asked to be photo with the foods *grin*
I would like to say thank you to all of you, Singapore Bloggers, especially Jo and Sony (eh is it Sonny or Sanny ar?) who came all the way down from KL, thank you very much *cupika cupiki*, thanks for the gift, thanks for effort to do conference thru the messenger to discuss what to buy for me, so touching *sobs* Thanks for coming as well, I was really having a good time with you all in my place, so the next one will be Jimmy house, huh? 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...
