Praktikum Anatomi, 2.0

Hola amigos! wawuu, udah lama yang gue nggak nge-post ; ) sorry for the lack of updates, been busy with college stuff, even reading Sobotta while writing this

anyways,
Hari Jum'at kemaren adalah kali kedua gue Praktikum Anatomi, and we were working with cadavers! oh wee. Quite excited, and can't wait to enter the lab. Diluar kita foto-foto gitu terus diliatin sama senior, hehehe, maaf ya kak, gini nih kalo mahasiswa tahun pertama, masih norak!
; P

Terus kita masuk deh ke lab, dan ternyata cuma ada beberapa cadaver gitu, dan kelompok gue bukan termasuk kelompok yang beruntung bisa langsung dapet, jadi yaudah deh kita kerja sama preparat basah dulu (organ-organnya udah dikeluarin dari cadavernya) seperti biasa Pryta jadi gurunya. Woo-wee, susah bangeeeettt! Dasar gue goblok abis belom baca Sobotta (atlas anatomi) jadi gue dengerin dan nyatetin disitu.
Oh iyaaaa, ada kejadian goblok. Jadi ceritanya temen gue penasaran gitu mau kedapetan cadaver, jadi pas mas-mas petugas lab dateng dorong cadaver dia narik-narik mas-mas itu sambil bilang. "Mas-mas, sini aja mas, sini aja mas." Terus yaudah, sama mas-nya kita dikasih cadaver itu. Pas cadaver udah di depan mata, satu kelompok diem, bingung mau ngapain. Sampe salah satu temen gue bilang. "Oke, ayo kita mulai..." hahaha baru deh kita mulai ngambil petunjuk praktikum. Terus temen gue bilang lagi. "Ayo mana gasternya coba?" (gaster itu lambung) pas kita buka perut cadavernya..... loh kok nggak bisa kebuka? "Lah, ini masih ada omentum major-nya?" (omentum major itu kayak lemak di perut gitu) kita semua bingung kan. "Ini cara ngeliatnya gimana ya?" yaelaaaahhh, ternyata cadaver kita belom kebuka!
Ah sial, lagi-lagi kita akhirnya harus belajar pake preparat basah dulu -____-

Terus kita latihan pake model, diajarin senior. Gilaaaaa susah susah susah susah abis abis abis gila gila gila. I'm doomed, people!

Hmmm, habis gitu belajar lagi diajarin sama kakak senior pake cadaver. Seniornya baik banget deh, seneng gue : )))

Overall, seneng aja akhirnya praktikum juga, walaupun gue tersendat-sendat banget belajarnya. Harus nyemangatin diri sendiri deh biar belajaaarrrrrm, grrrrr!

wish me luck, peeps

after 5 days of college, seminar on friday, going to the dentist after the seminar, after all the craziness

yesterday was Saturday, cos it's Sunday and 7PM already. Saturday was great. Mom's staying at my grandmother's house because she has appointment close to grandma's house on Saturday morning, and Dad's making me noodle for breakfast, after that I told him that I wanna go to Regina's house, she was my best mate in high school and I miss her like hell. So at around 900AM Dad took me to Regina's and we did what we love the most, hiding under her blanket, with the AC turned on, and watching HBO. We watched 'Made of Honor' thank God Patrick Dempsey accompany us that morning.
Going to Regina's house was always like this. The two of us, doing nothing but watching television and eating. We're ordering KFC and eating it while watching Mr. Dempsey doing silly things to steal the bride.
At 4PM, after 2 hrs of sleeping, and the rest doing nothing, Regina told me that she has to go selling flowers and she want me to help her. I always liked to help a friend so I said 'Yes'.
Time flies and now my lazy friend Regina is driving! woo-wee. In high school her driver always drove her everywhere but now, he's sitting beside her and she's the one behind the wheel. To be honest, I am praying from the second the turned the car's machine on.
She picked her friend, Ruhut, and she's a friend of my friend so we kinda talk a lot. I told Regina that I want to go to Ace Hardware if possible, so we went to Pondok Indah Mall. I used to hate PIM on saturday night, but turned out it was nice cos we get to meet our friend.
Regina asked, 'who else in there? i wanna sell my flowers.' so I told her that I saw Ama's updating her twitter said she's at PIM. Oookay, so we went to PIM and it was a very windy afternoon. And I'm being a total moron cos once again I forgot to bring my jacket.
I don't get the wallpaper, so we go straight to where Ama is, Sushi Tei. God I misssss Ama! She's a kind, talkative, funny, yet very good listener. All she can do is laughing when I'm talking. I don't know I'm that funny : )
Ama introduced us to her friends from high school and I asked them if they know my friends who went to school with them and they said 'YES!' and the last thing I knew we were gossiping, laughing, and talking like old friends.
It is always nice to meet new friends, but nicer to meet the old one. Last time I saw Regina was..... I can't even remember, it was months ago I think. And Ama? weee, it has been years! So Saturday was reunion day for me as my Dad went to his high school reunion too.
Btw I bought this book called 'The Mysterious Benedict Society' by Trenton Lee Stewart for only 88000 rupiahs. I can't pay it with my credit card so I pay it with my supposed-to-be-wallpaper-money. And to be honest it has been weeks since I'm using cash to pay for something other than food, hehe.
The 5 days of studying, seminar, group work, hecticness, was worth it.

Back To Reality

I'm going back to my Grandmother's house where I'm staying during my college days. Not that I hate it but, home sweet home right. I'll miss my bedroom and everything inside it. I'll miss by dog, Iker. See you on the weekend. cheers

Paris

Is where the magic happens to me. I am so amazed by the beautifulness of this city, I cannot talk during the sightseeing, I spent hours wandering alone Musee d'Orsay. I love the weather, even though it's colder than London, in the summer. Along the Seine river I saw many beautiful buildings and sculptures, by the river, Parisian teenagers are sitting with their friends, laughing, smoking, eating. I'd love to take a walk in Paris during the night, it must be fun watching a bunch of girls and boys drunk and singing. Chill runs down my veins but that didn't stop me from imagining myself living here. Maybe I'll spent months just to visit museums. Paris makes me love to go to museums, something I cannot get in my hometown. If love exist, I guess this is love. From me, to Paris. God, take me there again ♥

Reasons

to celebrate my 100th post, reasons why should/shouldn't I have my own flat (bahasa Indonesianya: ngekos. ini englishnya agak agak maksa haha)

Why shouldn't I?
1. I'll miss my home, my bed, my dogs, not to mention tons of books and dolls.
2. I can ask my Dad for money when I need some
3. I won't have this high speed connection internet anymore.
4. I can't watch DVD
5. I'll miss my Mom's cooking.
6. Akan kehabisan kue-kue sisa lebaran.
7. I cannot spend much time with Mom&Dad.
8. I won't see Iker everyday : (
9. I can't go to Senen after college
10. and that means bye bye to Atrium too
11. Simply, because home sweet home

Why should I?
1. Learning to stand on my own feet.
2. Learning not to "mbak this mbak that" whenever I need something.
3. Learning to control my money.
4. Get to know my friends
5. and seniors
6. I can study more, dirumah setiap mau belajar pasti adaaaa aja disuruh ini itu.
7. Focus!
8. Because of this high speed internet all I can do is tweeting!
9. It's close to my college.
10. TIDAK CAPEK! Kalau dirumah sampe rumah bawaannya super ngantuk dan capek, pengennya tidur, belajar juga ga bisa soalnya ngantuk. Kalo di kos jalan juga ga sampe 10 menit, masih bisa belajar belajar dikit pulang kuliah.
11. With tons of assignments and exams sometimes I need my friends to study together.
12. Dirumah=berisik!
13. Dirumah=ada-ada saja gangguannya
14. Dirumah=bawaannya pengen tidur
15. Di kos nggak ada TV, seenggaknya gangguan berkurang satu.
16. Di kos=bisa mandiri, no that's not mandi sendiri.
17. Di kos=beresin kamar sendiri.
18. Did I mention, di kos=nggak tergantung sama mbak? I did? okay then
19. Banyak makanan enak!
20. Kebersamaan sama temen-temen sesama anak kos, kemaren makan bareng aja udah seneng banget : )
21. Kompak sama temen-temen, karena sesama anak kos jadi derita lu (kadang-kadang) derita gue juga.
22. Bahu-membahu sama teman-teman
23. Simply, because I am tired of all this busway ride thingy, you have to try that by yourself otherwise you won't know what it feels like. Try to study from 0800 till 1500 then stand all the way to harmoni central, then to Senen (with Jakarta's famous traffic jam!) and from Senen to Kampung Melayu, after that, hop on to the nearest bajaj, and after 8-10 minutes you'll get home. It takes 2 hours or more (on busy hours) to get home from college, however, it's only 2 minutes from college to kos-kosan.


so, please re-think your decision. thank you.

Where do you want us to go?

Hello fellas. How r ya? I've been away too long since I went back from Jogja and my Dad forget to pay the speedy thingy. so here I am, updating since 10000 BC lol.
I have so much to tell actually. Mostly is my Jogja trip with my other 12 friends. I have so many beautiful pictures and funny stories, I'm gonna write it as soon as I can (and have the mood. blah.)
Btw, tomorrow is the election day!Will you vote? Vote! If you don't, than I think that you don't have the right to blame our government if something bothers you. you didn't vte for god's sake. So, VOTE people. Hihihi. Tomorrow will be my first, so I'm very excited. I'm thinkig about sticking my own picture ke kertas suaranya dan dicontreng sendiri. tee-hee.
oh yeah,

R.I.P Michael Jackson
I was in Jogja and opened my twitter, and people was like, "RIP MJ" and "RIP the king of pop" and I can't believe that he died. I mean, I'm not a big fan, i don't even know all of his songs, but hearing his music this past 11 days, I always said to myself."Oh, ini lagu Michael Jackson juga toh" so I know a lot of his songs (and love it!) but didn't know it was his. sorry.
And I felt sad. He was a good musician. oh no. BRILLIANT. such a genius. has a very very good music that lasts forever.
Rest in peace Michael Jackson, may God gives you the best place.



peace.

Here comes the prom!

So this is it, the day some of us been waiting for 3 years, but for me, prom is just another party I spend with my school mates, celebrating our last meal and drink and dance as high school students.
As the prom begins, my brain actually thinking about the days after today. On 25th, as I said before I'll go to Jogja with my friends. I hope it'll be a nice yet satisfying trip since I canceled my trip with Rissa to London : (
by the way, if you're thinking: Good gosh, what will she wear to prom? well I didn't get the picture of my prom dress, but it kinda look like Emma watson's Chanel navy blue dress but mine's tailor made.

I wanna say THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH to Marisa Harfiana for her drawing. See, my friend Marisa is good at fashion drawing and she draw my prom dress. The other day she went to the textile shop to choose the textile for my dress. So when I arrived, all I have to do is just pay for the textile. Also, a great big hug to my buddy Aregina Pernong for her kindness taking me to Dian Pelangi Kemang since the Bintaro one didn't take order anymore.

I literally crossing my fingers right now, hoping my prom will be fun, great, my dress fits me prfectly, the after party will be fun as hell

any tip for me?
well as the Americans say: Break a leg!

Hello again!

Sorry to say, but I'm not saying hello to you, but to my friend Cindy who arrived this evening from Kuwait . Wow, it's been 1,5 years since she left and I miss her! she used to be my classmate in X-4 and we did lots of crazy things together, but my favorite was 'kejar-kejaran sehabis ulangan bahasa inggris' which is a bit cruel for certain girl but it's a great memory I think ; )

after that, we acted like total strangers in Jakarta (me, buli, adiz and silmi) and took photos at the airport, it was fu-u-u-nnn! I just knew that there're vending machines there at the airport. you only have to pay 5000rupiah and you get what you want hihi norak sekali ya?

While we're waiting for Cindy, I remember that hey, I'm in arrival gate, am I? so I remember this quote -I don't remember everything, just "whenever I get gloomy with the stage of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at the Heathrow airport......" so I kept saying it until my friend said, "stop!" but a few seconds later, i'm saying it again : D

here's the complete line:

Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the
world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's
starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't
see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often, it's not particularly
dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and
daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the
planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know, none of the phone calls from the
people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of
love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaking suspicion... love actually is all
around

updates

here's some updates from me ; )

1. I cut my hair today! bye bye long messy damage hair, I've been thinking about cutting my hair for soo long but when it happens, I actually closed my eyes when the stylish did his action, but to-daaa! it's awesome, thankyou : D

my new shoulder length haircut

2. On top of my wishlist is polaroid camera! but people said that they wont produce the camera nor film starting this year, but I still want it! i'm thinking about fuji instax, tho, it's more expensive but the film is cheaper and easy to find here in Jakarta.

with my messed-up hair, I'm writing

Why is everything has to be freakin' stupid tonight?

Is it friday the 13th or something that brings me bad luck?! Oh dear God, what did I do that cause all the electronics around me suddenly acting like they were created in 10.000 BC?!

My big hair dryer melted my hair brush, and when Mom finds out, she wont let me use that hair dryer anymore, so she gave me hers. Hers was blue and sounds reaaaally slow, and it's not as hot and fast as mine, but I use it instead because I was washing my hair and needed to dry it.

I was drying my hair and all was okay, when that stupid blue hair dryer suddenly stooped! IT SUDDENLY STOPPED! wth?! i tried everything, believe me, I shook it, blow the dryer, pull the plug, everything. And it's on again. And a few moments later, that freakin' hair dryer was STOPPED, it stopped! IT DOESN'T WANT TO DRY MY HAIR! WHAT IN THE WORLD?!

And right now my hair is half dry half wet which is very disturbing.

And I cannot sign in to my Windows Live, God knows why. Oh dear God

Oh God

Please let me be a normal person, who doesn't have to go yelling at her gadgets, please? I'm sick and tired of all these technologies but I admit it I need it, I f-in really need it. for my own good, for writing in this blog and keeps myself as sane as I can

Good gosh, Giuseppe, baby you're drivng me KKKRRRRRAAAAZZZEEEEEEYYYYYY!!!

this memory keeps me alive : )

Hari terakhir di London, kita semua berkumpul lagi di Bar The White Bear (kalo nggak salah) untuk pisah. Ada dua kelompok, yang akan pulang ke Jakarta dan yang lanjut keliling Eropa. Disitu suasananya sediiiihhhhh sekali, kita peluk-pelukan, nangis-nangisan, ketawa-ketawa bareng untuk yang terakhir kalinya sampe supir busnya jutek.

Bus kelompok yang akan berangkat ke Eropa sampai duluan, jadi kita juga yang duluan pergi. Sedihnyaaaaa, dua minggu bareng-bareng di negeri orang bener-bener bikin kita jadi deket lho, I even thought that I've found some of my best friends during that trip. Karena walaupun cuma 2 minggu susah seneng kita rasain bareng-bareng, kesasar bareng, ngerasain seneng deg-degannya ke tempat baru bareng, foto-foto bareng. : )

Disaat-saat seperti ini, ketika kita jauh dari rumah, adalah saat-saat dimana kamu bisa menemukan orang-orang yang membantu kamu untuk mandiri, istilahnya, helps you stand on your own feet.

So I really thank you, for you people who helps me there, in our beautiful playground ; ) I will never ever forget you guys, because I loooooooovvvvveeeeeeeee you you you soooooo freakin' much, and I miss you.

Just like we promised ya, suatu hari nanti, kita akan kembali menjajah Inggris! yeeeaaaahhhhh ; )))))

This time, three years ago

Tiga tahun yang lalu, tepat dua minggu setelah UAN, gue dan Toshi dijemput ibunya Toshi, Tante Kia untuk pergi ke Singapura menjenguk Om Totok yang dirawat di Mt. Elizabeth Hospital karena kecelakaan. Nyokap gue pergi dua hari sebelum gue UAN, jadi di Jakarta gue cuma sama nenek dan bokap. As soon as the UAN ended, daddy flew to Singapore to be with my Mom and Om Totok and Tante Kia. That was a very hectic situation for me.

Hari Jum'at itu, pas rombongan pergi ke SIngapur, nyokap minta tolong sama gue untuk nginep di rumah Toshi, she said, "Mama yakin kamu bisa UANnya. Please take care of him," karena saat itu sepupu kecil gue itu terlihat begitu fragile dan sedih, maka tugas gue dan 2 sepupu lainnya adalah untuk membuat dia seneng lagi. and it works! gue dan sepupu gue yang emang pasangan silly berhasil membuat Toshi terbahak-bahak ; D

Selesai UAN, kerjaan gue adalah jemput sodara gue itu, nginep di rumahnya, ngajakin jalan-jalan, sambil menunggu Tante Kia menjemput kita ke Singapura.
And I still remember that day. That morning, Tante Kia came from Singapore, she called my Grandma (whose stayed at my home) "Bu, saya udah di Jakarta, Ratih udah siap?" and I freaked out! Oh dear God, I miss my Mom&Dad, and I'm worried about Om Totok too!
Sekitar jam setengah empat sore, I packed my bags and I'm reaaady! Tadinya gue bilang ke Ibu/nenek, bahwa dia nggak usah ikut, takut capek. But she insisted, so off we go.
Kita sampai di Bandara Soekarno-Hatta sekitar jam lima sore, don't now why but I'm excited, actually, I'm always really excited if I'm going abroad, okay, I'm excited if I'm going to ride a plane. Funny huh? Since I known as NRANP with her acrophobia.
Anywaaaaaayyyy, Tante Kia agak terlambat karena masih harus bayar ini-itu, jadi gue dan Ibu makan dulu di McD (standar makanan di cengkareng, hehe). Nggak lama Tante Kia dan rombongan datang (beserta Om dan Tante dan dua sepupu gue) terus kita langsung belingsatan ngumpulin barang dan lariiiiii ke gate-nya.
Setelah dadah-dadah dan lots of kiss byes and everything, gue tante dan toshi masuk ke gate. Tugas gue sudah jelas, disana gue harus bisa mandiri karena nyokap dan bokap dan tante kia pasti sibuk di rumah sakit. Sukur-sukur keahlian memasak gue udah bertambah jadi bisa bikin makanan. But poor us, gue belum bisa masak waktu itu, jadi tugas gue cuma satu: gue harus menemani sepupu gue, well not actually menemani, karena saat gue bersama dia malah jadinya dia yang suka ngikutin gue kemana-mana hehehe.

Selama di Singapore ini nyokap gue ngajak belanja-belanja di Singapore great sale karena keadaan om gue stabil jadi bisa ditinggal. Gue tinggak di sebelah rumah sakit, di sebuah rumah tingkat tiga yag disewa-sewain buat keluarga yang mau jenguk. "Puas-puasin belanja," kata nyokap, "sapa tau habis ini kamu harus dirumah sakit terus." oh nggak harus diperintah dua kali, ibunda!

Dua minggu di Singapur, setelah itu gue balik ke Jakarta selama beberapa hari untuk wisuda, dan kemudian...... balik lagi ke Singapura! Kali ini dengan persiapan yang lebih matang: sebuah kaset X-box dengan permainan yang nggak mungkin bosen (gue lupa namanya) untuk gue dan sodara gue, karena denger-denger sepupu gue udah beli TV buat di rumah sakit untuk mencolokkan X-boxnya.

Kali ini gue lama bgt di Singapur, sampe enek gue sama rumah sakitnya. Pagi-pagi gue bangun, mandi, terus ke rumah sakit nganter makanan karena nyokap gue masih masak dan siap-siap. Siang biasanya kalo bisa gue dan nyokap dan Toshi ke takashimaya atau sekedar Pentagon yang letaknya di depan Mt. E untuk jalan-jalan atau beli es krim. Sore, gue dan sodara gue ke food court takashimaya beli Tako Pachi, terus sore sampe malem main x-box di rumah sakit.
Sampai suatu hari, Tante Kia yang kasian ngeliat kita akhirnya ngajakin jalan-jalan ke tempat yang 'jauhan'. Sehari sebelumnya tante bilang, "Ratih, besok kita ke Jurong sama Snow city ya." and I was like, oh thank God finally.... a holiday! dan besoknya gue dan tante dan Toshi ke Jurong deh!
Dari Mt. E kita cegat taksi dan dengan kerennya bilang, "Jurong birdpark, please." dan kira-kira empat puluh menit kemudian kita sampai di Jurong birdpark.
Jurong birdpark adalah exhibit standar bagi turis yang datang ke Singapura. Kita sampe sana pas masih pagi, jadi masih agak sepi. Pas ngeliat dalemnya, ada semacam amphiteater atau apapun namanya yang bentuknya seperti Colosseum. Ditengahnya ada panggung dan badut-badut burung yang bernyanyi. Toshi pengen liat sementara tante males nontonin badut, jadilah gue dan sepupu nonton pertunjukan.
Pas selesai, ada acara foto-foto sama burung kakatua (yang dulu dirumah nenek gue juga ada) dan burung beo. Karena iseng gue suruh aja sepupu gue foto sama burung yang diiket itu, setelah itu mbak-mbaknya bilang, "Donate and you'll get postcard." terus sepupu gue nyuruh gue nyumbang, gue buka dompet dan dia main pengen ngambil aja 10 dollar gue, "eeeeh jangan," bisik gue, "recehan aja!" dan gue kasih dia recehan 10 sen terus dia masukin. Mbak-mbaknya senyum terus ngasih postcard untuk sepupu gue dan gue. Hahaha! Jurong birdpark, next time I'll give you my 10 dollar ; ))
Setelah itu kita pergi ke Snow city, naik bus, yang nunggunya lamaaaaaaa banget! DI snow city gue tidak terlalu menikmati. Gue salah banget pake celana ngatung jeans jadinya gue kedinginan, setelah meluncur sekali, foto-foto, tante Kia ternyata udah nggak tahan mau keluar, gue ikutan, sementara sepupu gue sudah menemukan teman baru dari Solo untuk main luncuran bareng.
Diluar, gue main internet yang bayar pake koin itu, main friendster hehehe.
Pulangnya kita naik taksi sampai tempat MRT. Ternyata itu adalah ujungnya MRT, jadi MRTnya masih kayak monorail gitu.
Karena pada saat itu gue baru lulus SMP and you know, saat gue baru lulus SMP gue masih belum tau apa-apa tentang dunia. Kita bertiga sukses tersesat. Kita keluar di sebuah stasiun yang begitu ramainya sampai-sampai ada poster Frank Lampard gede banget (saat itu gue masih suka Chelsea dan MU, how could I?) dan Tante Kia takut banget kehilangan kita berdua kita sampe gandengan menentang arus manusia yang kayaknya semuanya in a rush.

Besoknya? Gue dan tante Kia flu. Hahaha. PIlek-pilek dan batuk.

Dua minggu kemudia gue pulang karena mau ikut semacam dance class selama 5 hari dari Namarina. Kemudian operasi dan treatment Om Totok berhasil, om gue sekarang udah jadi kayak dulu lagi tidak lumpuh sama sekali. : )

and you know what? I miss those times. Tako pachi, es krim pinggir jalan, auntie anne's, dan rumah kos-kosan.
kira-kira mbak-mbak Tako pachi masih ingat pesenan standar gue nggak ya?

helllooooo? goodbye.

I hate those times, including right now, when I wanted to write something but nothing comes in my mind. So basically, I'll just gonna go talking about nothing that maybe only myself can understand. But hey, something comes in my mind! ahem ahem

gribbet.
gribbet.
oh sorry, i'm just writing frog's sound am I?


where are we right now? me? my cave of course, hehe. If you ever went to my house, saw my room, you would understand. See, i have this coffe table beside my not-so-worth-it study table which I use for my laptop/giuseppe. Mom recently bought me a very comfy rattan chair, um waddya call it? it's basically not a chair since it doesn't have legs and all, I just sit on the floor, yeah i sit on the floor with my carpet. Around this coffe table, there are few... okay, a lot of things. For example, now, there are: iPod, AC remote, a pack of tissue, my watch, my Mr. Potato head toy, digicam, House season 1 DVD, more tissue, my sling bag, newspaper (i read the newspaper everyday!), Dan Brown's Angels&Demons, a pack of wet tissue, a pack of Cadbury chocolate, my phone, and chips.
Now this is what I call my cave! ; )
I don't have to get up and walk to reach things I need. I always put my important stuff close with me because I'm always too lazy to get up.

stop me before I go kkkkkrrrraaaazeeeeeyyyy!

now it's time to think about some important stuff,

dont cha think, crunchies?

Last Sunday

Last Sunday was family day for me. Me and Dad went to The Ritz-Carlton Pacific Place because Om Totok and family stayed there for the weekend. When we arrived there, Tante Kia offered breakfast and I ordered Caesar salad, yummy!

tres bien!

After that we went to Pacific Place because my cousin and his friends want to watch Night at The Museum 2 while I watch Angels and Demons. A very beautiful movie! I love art and history and little bit of science wont kill me and finally found three things I love in one movie. I watched it alone, btw.

We went to Om Totok's house afterwards, watch TV and infotainment and Termehek-mehek hahaha, hilarious! Tante Kia once said, "Why people did this?" Is termehek-mehek true? Why people share their problems with others, by others I mean Indonesians who watched termehek-mehek? But it's still fun to watch

For dinner we went to Sakura, a really nice Japanese restaurant, with real Japanese atmosphere because the guests are Japanese people ; )

Toshi and his appetizer, baby octopus

it's raw, but yummmmm ; )

My appetizer, a very delicious Agedashi Tofu ; 9

Chicken Katsu curry

Japanese Mochi with caramel sauce

Una cena muy agradable si se me permite decirlo, y un hecho muy bonito día! Me encanta la familia día ;)

have a good day, crunchies

Adventure

I went to Pasar Senen today, with Gigi and Rissa

Kita naik busway, naik dari Ragunan turun di Dukuh atas 2, sambung ke Harmoni, terus ke Senen. Seruuu lho, dengan uang 3.500 udah bisa ke ujung Jakarta tanpa macet. Overall, dari Ragunan ke Senen kira2 makan waktu 45 menit, yang nggak mungkin banget kalo naik mobil 45 menit udah nyampe Senen.
Dari Ragunan-Dukuh atas, buswaynya lumayan rame, tapi kita dapat duduk karena naik dari pemberhentian awal. Yang rame banget itu dari Harmoni-Senen, mungkin karena tengah kota ya? Sebenernya menurut gue, halte busway itu kecil bangeeettt! hehehe, dan orang yang naik busway banyak, terus ada beberapa jurusan gitu kan di satu halte, jadi ngantre mau masuk buswaynya harus nafsu ; )

Di Senen, pertama nyampe kita naik ke atas, ke tempat yang bagusan tapi sepi, terus Gigi (yang sering kesini) ngajak kita ke bawah, ke tepat penjual-penjual yang dulu kebanjiran pada pindah ke dalam pasar. Begitu masuk, ada satu kios yang rame banget ternyata jual baju 5000/2pasang! Gileee, baru sekali ini nemu baju semurah itu. Ngobrak-ngabrik, akhirnya gue nemu sekitar 4 pasang kalo nggak salah, habis itu lanjut lagi.
Kios favorit gue adalah kios yang jual dress, yang punya ibu-ibu berkerudung yang sangat ramah sekali, dan letak kiosnya harus diingat banget. Gue beli satu dress denim selutut seharga 10.000, yummy! Dan jualannya itu rapih, semuanya digantung jadi enak milihnya.
Badan udah keringetan tapi masih lanjut doong, pindah ke kios jual rok-rok 10.000/3psg tapi gue kecewaaaa! Soalnya banyak banget rok lucu-lucu tapi lingkar pinggangnya seperti nyindir gue, alias kecil banget. Setan.
Terus kita keliling-keliling sampe ujung, tiba-tiba ada meja dengan setumpuk pakaian yang sepertinya menarik. Pas gue tanya, ternyata harganya.............. 1000 rupiah saja, mbak! Woooaaaah, langsung kalap doong. Gue aduk-aduk aja itu tumpukan, karena biasanya yang bagus-bagus ada di paling bawah. Ps udah nemu lima baju dan udah bayar, gue masih berdiri di sebelah Rissa karena dia baru nemu empat, tiba-tiba gue narik baju ternyata itu jaket jeans tapi bahannya adem enak gitu bagus deh. Langsung gue kasih Rissa, eeehhhh tapi ternyata sampe jalan gue kebayang-bayang jaket itu terus, jadi gue beli lagi deh dari Rissa hehehe.
Dari Senen-Harmoni buswaynya rame bangeeeeetttt! Udah berdiri, desek-desekan pula, bawa belanjaan banyak banget lagi! Tapi untungnya dari Harmoni-Dukuh atas kita bisa berdiri dengan leluasa, dan dari Dukuh atas-Ragunan yang paling enak. Mungkin karena udah masuk Jakarta bagian ujung, jadi yang naik busway juga sedikit. Bisa duduk, barang bawaan taruh di samping............ tidur. hehehe.

Naik busway juga berguna banget buat kamu-kamu yang keseimbangan badannya kurang. Contohnya waktu dari Dukuh atas 2-Harmoni, kita harus berdiri tapi untungnya nggak desek-desekan. Si Rissa, males megang handle yang diatas kepala itu, eeehhh tiba-tiba busnya ngerem dan dia refleks nyender ke gue, gue megang handle tapi miring 45 derajat ke samping. Posisi ini bertahan selama sekita 10 detik paling panjang dalam hidup gue, karena dalam posisi seperti ini juga gue udah nahan ketawa ; D

Oh yeah, one more thingy, sepertinya di busway harus dikasih pengharum berbentuk pohon cemara yang untuk mobil itu deh ; )

loco amigos

i love you, guys ; )

Today was bad.

It's me and my Mom plus my weight that caused a fight at home. First she got mad because I spent the whole day at my room, while she's gone. Okay Mom, I don't understand you in this part. You were gone okay? You were going to the hospital to check on your friend and you got mad because I spent the whole day doing nothing at my room? Now that's weird.
That's okay, actually. I heard her yelling like, eveyday and get used to it.
Tapi tiba-tiba kok ya nyerempet ke weight problem? My weight problem!
Good gosh, I was eating, hello! And you told me that I ate too many food!

Don't Moms supposed to tell their teenage daughter to believe in their self?

To be confident no matter how ugly or fat or short you are?

What happened with self confidence?

Don't you ever heard of it?

I'm mad because she never accept my 175 cm and 70 kg body. She always said that I am too fat while others think I am fine. I'm not fat, they say, but only have big bones. Well mother, you can't change big bones, don't you?
Suddenly, I want to tell her that I was okay, I mean with my 70 kg weight (I even say my weight twice!) I never feel fat. Well, sometimes I think I am fat, but then I just let it go.
I worked out at the gym to get healthier, if I'm lucky I'll thinier.
If it comes to love, a guy should love me no matter how fat I am, besides I never had a relationship not because I'm fat, that's just because I don't want it yet. I still want to have fun, enjoying my teenage life, especially in high school and I have enough problems I don't want to add another relationship problems some of my friends had with their boyfriends.

They say home is where your heart is.

But my heart is where people can accept who I really am. They don't care about my weight, my face, my money, they only care about me because I am me, they love the good side of me and they correct me when I'm wrong. They tell me which is good or bad, they teach me how to stand on my own feet.

I feel empty, knowing things she said to me earlier today. What should I do? She's my Mom, and she supposed to be the one who said, "Kamu cantik, segendut apapun kamu, kamu tetep anak Mama yang paling cantik." Dan tidak pernah membuat gue tidak pede dengan badan gue.

If I lost my self confidence, I know who to blame!
