Kunti's Love Life
Kita suka kabur rame2 naik mobil Kunti untuk makan siang di daerah Santa, di salah satu warung soto favorit deh. Gue kangen banget pengen makan soto itu lagi. Hiks... Saat2 awal kita jalan, Kunti masih pacaran sama Govinda. Mereka bener2 kliatan sebagai pasangan serasi abis deh. Kunti kan cantik, tinggi, modis, dandannya pol, baik hati, dan cinta banget ma si Govinda. Trus si Govinda itu kan klimis, kliatan mapan, kerja di agency iklan terkenal, udah kayak yuppies gaul lah. Kalo lagi pergi berdua, gue kayak lagi ngeliat halaman mode di majalah tentang socialite dah. Cakeeep...
Kunti udah tunangan sama Govinda. Dan sedang mempersiapkan pernikahan. Gue dan anak2 cewek 1 departemen dapet bahan kebaya buat seragam acara resepsi dia. Segala macem udah diurus bla bla bla. Ehhh... Ternyata Govinda sebenernya entah gak siap ato udah gak mau sama Kunti, trus dia mutusin pertunangan dan mereka pun pisah. Hati Kunti hancur banget. Mana mutusinnya pas Kunti lagi diopname di rumah sakit pula. Sadis banget deh. Dan gak lama kemudian Kunti mergokin dia jalan sama cewek lain. Jadi keliatannya sebenernya dia selingkuh sejak masih jalan sama Kunti. The whole time, gue dampingin dan nemenin Kunti. Dengerin semua curhat dia. Nemenin dia nangis. But that was something she needed to get through. I couldn't do anything but staying at her side then. Thank God she recovers enough to get on with life.
Then she got another boyfriend named Cory. It wasn't a love thing, but she always needed a man by her side. So she took his offer to go out with him. At first, everything seemed fine. But later she told me what an asshole he actually was. Either he had a lack of confidence or just plain psycho. Anak mami manja seanjing-anjing lah. Selalu cerita tentang mantan2 ceweknya yang dia bilang lebih cantik, kaya, dan dia selalu dibeliin macem2. Eh, maksudnya tuh lo cowok matre ya? Dan gimana Kunti udah membuka diri ke keluarga Cory, kalo dateng kerumah Cory selalu ikut bantu2 seperti layaknya pacar ato mungkin malah calon istri. Gak seperti orang lain lah. Ternyata menurut nyokap si cowok gila itu Kunti cuma cari muka doang. Gila! Gue tau mang banyak nyokap2 yang overprotektif ke anak lakinya, tapi ini mah udah beberapa bulan gak ada tanda mencair, malah semakin sadis. Ditambah juga si Cory minta dibeliin sepatu mahal, jam, dll, bilangnya siy mau diganti. Tapi sampe sekarang gak diganti juga tuh. Cory emang bisa mainin pikiran Kunti, jadi Kunti selalu maafin dia. Mind games gitu deh. *Kalo gue ma Alv super mind games dong ya?*
Thank God mereka akhirnya putus juga, dan Kunti langsung dikenalin ke cowok yang sekarang jadi suaminya. Prosesnya cepet banget. Ketemu, suka, cocok, jalan, nikah. Lancar banget. Emang udah jalannya kali ya. And they love each other so much. I'm happy for you, cuy. May you live happily ever after.

And then I strolled around, checked a new fragrance from L'Occitane, then crossed the bridge to PIM 1. I went to Gramedia and bought Raditya Dika's Kambing Jantan. I started reading it this morning, and it was hilarious!! Haha... I digress... From Gramedia, I went to Body Shop and there's BIG SALE!! Yippeee... I bought my favorite Body Mist for my stock. And believe it or not, I left my shopping there at the counter and I'd only came to realize it this morning. Idiot!! I've been calling them today and not once did they answer it. Huh!!
I met Psycho and his wife and kid in front of Levi's shop. We chatted and caught up some news, meanwhile I also played with their daughter. She was cute. But not nearly as cute as my Li'l Bangbag. :)
I moved on to Starbucks. I had a decaf dripped black, and enjoying it on the couch. Not long after that, my brother pinged my BB Messenger and told me that he was at BK. So I went there and finish his french fries. :p He bought a book of Learning Piano because we just acquired a new piano at home. And no one could play it, hahahh... But it's a good investment. I'm going to push Bangbag to learn it when she's old enough to learn it. Go, Bangbag!! Soon to be the new Maksim. I think I'm going to be her manager and give her a stage name: Lady Maksima. Tweww...
Before going home, I and my brother dropped by at Famous Amos and bought an ounce each of their cookies assortment. Overall we bought 7 ounces. Imagine all the fat and sugar swimming on my thighs. Not trimming at all. *Sigh*
When I got home, Batman texted me saying that he's on his way to the ER because his condition got worse instead of getting better. Dammit!! I don't know what to do or say. No doctors could diagnose his illness so far. Where else should he go?

Dalam Rangka HUT Jakarta
Memori kehidupan gue pastinya semua seputar Jakarta. Dan sedihnya, gak ada yang seru dan lucu kayak yang di acara si Bolang. Hehee... Tapi waktu kecil, gue inget sekolah di playgroup yang ada kolam renangnya, trus masuk TK di daerah Pondok Indah. Pulang pergi sekolah naik becak. Sekarang bisa nemu becak aja udah syukur. Trus kalo sore kan pasti banyak banget tuh tukang jualan yang lewat depan rumah. Naaah, suatu hari, ada tukang rambut nenek. Gue pengen banget, dan gue cuman punya duit 25 perak. Gue pikir cukup. Jadi gue bilang sama abangnya bahwa gue mau beli satu. Udah siap, gue terima tu rambut nenek, trus gue kasih duitnya. Eeeeeh, dia bilang kurang, mustinya cepek. Huh... Gue nawar dong, niru nyokap kalo pergi ke pasar. Cuma masalahnya tu barang udah gue pegang kan, udah gue mulai makan pula. Dia tetep gak mau nurunin harga. Gue marahlah, gue bilang, 'Abang pelit!! Jualan kok mahal amat!!' sambil gue tinggal. Kelar main, sorenya gue pulang, nyokap langsung marah besar ke gue. "Mama gak pernah ngajarin kamu ngompas orang gitu!! Bla bla bla...' Sialaaan... masa iya siy gue umur 5 tahun dibilang udah bisa ngompas orang. Gak mungkin deh. Orang itu aja yang kalo jualan kemahalan. Huh!! Dasar tukang ngadu tu abang2...
Entah kenapa gue punya banyak flashback kamar hotel. Dan nama Hotel Mandarin sangat melekat di otak gut kalo pas lagi inget2 masa kecil. Ternyata ya, gue diceritain sama kakak gue kalo waktu gue masih pitik dulu, nyokap suka impulsively decided mau nginep di hotel. Cuma untuk iseng aja. Halah, mak. Iseng aja bisa mpe nginep di hotel. Sayang gue cuma dapet flashback kamar hotel doang, gak inget ngapain aja dulu. Hiks... Sama suka dibangunin jam 2an malem gitu trus sekeluarga pergi makan bubur ayam di coffee shopnya Hotel Indonesia. Sekarang udah gak ada lagi, padahal enak bangeeet... Sumpah tu bubur enak!
Dulu kalo mau makan Kwetiau paling enak di daerah Mangga Besar. Kalo sekarang mah yang namanya Kwetiau Pontianak udah ada dimana2. Tapi kenapa ya sambelnya udah gak ada yang seenak dulu? Kalo mau makan sea food perginya ke Pecenongan. Kangkung hot platenya gue gak lupa mpe sekarang. KFC cuma ada di lantai 2-nya Supermarket Gelael di Blok M. Kalo Burger King ada di sebelahnya. Gue dulu jadi member kiddies clubnya BK loh. Hahaaa... Eh ampir lupa. Di Gelael ada hotdog paling enak sedunia. At least itu menurut gue dan bokap gue. Secara dulu rumah kita gak jauh dari Blok M, kalo pulang sekolah ato sore2 gitu suka beli hotdognya. Practically everyday tuh. Hiks, kangen sama hotdog itu. Sampe hari ini belum ada yang nyamain. *BTW, kenapa jadinya malah nulis tentang memori makanan siy?*
Biarpun Monas jadi icon Jakarta, gue cuma pernah beberapa kali aja masuk kesitu. Sebenernya siy 2 kali doang. Sekali pas karyawisata sekolah, yang sekali lagi sama bokap gue. Pokoknya gue udah pernah berada di puncak Monaaas!! Tapi kalo pas Jakarta Fair mah pasti dateng duunks... Makan kerak telor, makan gulali sampe mules, digendong bokap di bahu, minta dibeliin balon, sama nangis kalo liat badut. Believe it or not, waktu kecil gue takut banget sama yang namanya badut. Kalo sekarang siy gue tendang2in aja pantatnya. :p Kalo perlu gue tarik wignya. Hihihi.Sejak Jakarta Fair dipindahin ke Kemayoran, gue jadi males kesana. Cuman sekali doang dulu waktu masih baru2 pindah. Dan baru sekarang lagi gue kesana, itu juga gara2 kerjaan. Jauh amat yak? Trus susah pula kendaraannya. Modalnya gede banget tu, kalo pulang malem kan terpaksa naik taxi. Gila, dari Kemayoran mpe Sudirman aja udah berapa, apalagi sampe rumah gue. Tweww...
Waktu SD gue ikut klub renang, latihannya 2x seminggu di Senayan. Kakak gue dengan setia dan galak anter jemput gue latihan. Emang beliau yang maksa dan ngebet gue masuk klub renang gitu kayaknya. Ditungguin pula. Hiiii... Kalo berani nolak, eh gak pernah berani gue deng... Gue sempet jadi juara 3 se-Jakarta loh. *Cih, gitu aja bangga!* Trus waktu SMP kan musti ada nilai olahraga dan kalo berenang di kolam renang Pondok Indah aja dong. Gak ada deh yang bisa ngalahin gue, termasuk cowok2nya. Kalo disuruh lomba sama gue, pada gak mau. That's how good I was at the time. Kalo sekarang mah bisa ngambang aja udah bagus. *Halahh* Pernah sekali gue musti berenang di kolam renang Bulungan. Cukup sekali2nya itu aja deh gue kesitu. Pengalaman buruk yang bener2 made me scarred for life. Jeez... Pas udah ganti pake baju renang, gue sama temen gue jalan ke ujung kolam, siap2 nyemplung. Alhamdulillah gue udah terbiasa untuk stretching dulu. Sementara temen gue main langsung nyemplung aja. Pas lagi stretching itu, gue ngeliat ke dalem kolam, penasaran kok kayaknya ada sampah ato apa di dasar kolam gitu. Kirain apaan, tapi ternyata oh ternyata, itu adalah BOKER sodara2!! Sekali lagi, itu adalah BOKER MANUSIA yang berwarna coklat berbentuk seperti lontong dan berwarna coklat menjijikkan. Ohmaigat!! Untuuung aja gue ngikutin pakem olahraga untuk stretching, jadi sempet buying time to observe the warzone. *Halahh, lebay!* Gue cuma bisa nyengir jijik sambil manggil temen gue dan menunjuk ke arah benda tertuduh di dasar kolam itu. Apes lo, cuy!! Wakakakakakakak!!!
Dia langsung naik dan mandi sambil jerit2 jijik sendiri. Gue ganti baju lagi dan nunggu dia sambil duduk di deretan kursi penonton yang ngelilingin kolam. Di belakang gue adalah pagar kawat yang menghadap jalan. Gue gak inget apa yang membuat gue menoleh ke belakang, tapi gue noleh. Damn!! There was this bapak2 lagi ganti baju di rerumputan depan pagar itu dan gue melihat BURUNGnyaaah!!! I saw 2 inappropriate lontongs in one shitty day! *Hueeek!!!* Gue yang jelas kaget dan sempet terpaku menatap benda aneh itu, dan si bapak itu tau gue lagi ngeliat dia, cuek aja loh. Malah ketawa mesum ke gue. *ANJIIING!!!* Gue langsung lari ke kamar mandi dan nyuruh temen gue untuk buru2 kelar. Gak lagi2 deh gue ke kolam renang Bulungan. Najis!! Cuma di Jakarta gak ya yang kayak gitu?
Yah, ini cuma beberapa pengalaman gue di ibukota tercinta. Kapan-kapan bikin sequelnya deh. Haha. Udah gak konsen, soalnya banyak yang musti dikerjain. Cya, peeps...
Met Ultah Ye, Jakarte!!!

Fortunate - Maxwell
Verse 1:
Never seen a sun shine like this
Never seen the moon glow like this
Never seen the waterfalls like this
Never seen the lights off like this
Never dug anyone like this
Never had tasty lips to kiss
Never had someone to miss
Never wrote a song quite like this
Chorus:
Fortunate to have you girl,
I'm so glad you're in my world,
Just as sure as the sky is blue,
I bless the day that I found you.
Verse 2:
Never had room service all night
Never took a trip first class flight
Never had a love affair so tight
I've never felt a feeling so right
Never seen a winter so white
Never had words to recite
Never had a flame to ignite
And I never sang a song with all my might.
Chorus 2x
Silence child hope you hear
I'm callin out to your body
Baby you know just what to do
Close the door no interlude
chorus 2x
Getting Sweeter
I’m in love. Or infatuated. Who cares? What matters is I’m with him now. There are still complications about his past, but he never did bad things to me, nor did he do bad things in front of me. And I can see that he cares for me too. So that’s it. Can’t say for sure if we’re really a couple now, but this relationship is mutually exclusive.
On the surface, he says the most endearing words to me. He wishes good things for me. He holds my hand, kisses my cheek, rests his head on my shoulder, smiles lovingly, and looks at me as if I’m the prettiest girl in the world. He puts me on a pedestal. It gives me the high. But on the other hand, it makes me worried too. I don’t want him to be disappointed in me. And I’m a little scared to get hurt again. But I’m going to enjoy it while it lasts. And wishing there would be no more problems.
Bengal and Batman, what a weird couple…

Batman was still treated at the hospital. The guys planned to visit him and see how he was. But at the last minute they changed their minds and all went home. I have thought that I would see him and spend the night there. I knew he was alone. So I went alone by ojek to the God-knows-where hospital. He was so happy that I was there. And so was I.
I kissed his forehead the instant I saw him, and he wouldn’t let go of my hand. We just looked at each other and smiled stupidly. Hahah… He didn’t look so good, mainly because he had headaches and high temperature. Later, his fever spiked and I called the nurse. He was shivering and sweating and looked in pain. He was feeling so cold, and the stupid hospital didn’t even have an extra blanket. So I took off my jacket and wrap his feet in it. I also had brought a ‘kain bali’ to keep me warm at night, and I put it around his upper body. Then I climbed on the bed and held him close to me until his fever subsided. The nurses checked on him occasionally, and seemed fine with the fact that I’m in bed with him, so I continued until he’s feeling better. Than I tried to sleep on the hard chair while he slept. Couldn’t find a comfortable position, so I just watch him slept while dozing every other minute.
Morning came, I washed my face and then waited for him to wake up. When he did, it was so cute. He seemed stunned that I was still there, and a bit overwhelmed too. It was so sweet. Hahaa… We spent the morning chatting and being happy, just the two of us. So sweet… :D
At 7 am, I left him and went to Menik’s place and spend the day with her. Couldn’t have anyone from his circle see me yet. Hehee… Get well soon, dear. Muaach…

The crowd was better than the day before. Our performance on stage were by a Top 40 band, a newcomer in the industry, and a reggae one. As a rule of thumb, there would always be fights or clashes when watching reggae, and yesterday was no exception. I counted at least 6 fights, and about 3 chases of thugs by the police. There was even a beating. Wow. Were they all smoking pots? The jerks. Peace, yo!!
We finished a moment before dark, and started dismantling our properties. I ran away for a bit and had my hair washed and dried in a salon in the mall. Heheheee... I didn't have anything to do anyway. :p I was already home at midnight. Cool.
And today is lazying time. Going to catch on my lost sleep, and maybe going to the mall later. I miss my girl pals. Wish to see you all later. I hope.

I also accompanied the MCs for the field sessions, and organized the door prizes. Easy, eh? Anyways, Batman was still sick, but he insisted on coming to the venue and worked. The idiot! Did he have a death wish or what?? *Grrrrhhh...*
I told him to just sleep in the tent and not do anything. Thank God he complied. Overall, this day wasn't a hard one. :D
06122009, 11:58 pm
So, good night, everyone. I need to wake up way earlier tomorrow. I'll be sleeping at the office until Sunday. Muach...

May and her English
Let's call her May. She's an innocent over thirty year old woman. A very diligent person. I remember when she was still in college, her GPA was almost 4.0. She was my neighbour back then. But even though her marks were high, she didn't even know what encyclopedia was. I couldn't forget that, not even til now. Huahahahaa...
Right, I dodn't mean anything by posting this. And I absolutely don't mean to insult her or anything. Gue cuma gemes buanget!!!!!!!! Mbak, masa cuma mo ngasih tau ke guru Englishnya kalo lo gak masuk karena gak enak badan musti nanya dulu ke gue, bahasa Inggrisnya gimana?
Gubraaaakk...
Vicky Cristina Barcelona

Hari yang gak begitu sibuk. Jadi gue bisa nonton DVD di kantor. Hehee... Nonton Vicky Cristina Barcelona, which is by Woody Allen. I watched few of his movies, and it all starred by Scarlett Johansson. All have unusual themes. And I could connect with the characters. But I especially can connect with Johansson's role in VCB. Sometime, I'd like to think that I'm kinda like her. Hehee...

I miss them. We met at Kucil's engagement party. But it's only for a short time as we all already had agendas. Menik was meeting her new closest guy friend, Kucil of course needed to be home with her family, Kunti was having mild fever, and I was tired. Anyways, what kind of agendas was that? Blo'on lo, Ngal!!
I wanted to write about Kucil's story again, but I simply not in the mood now. Maybe next time. *Promises, promises...* But to make it short, she finally made the decision to go on with her guy after all. And now they're engaged. I'm happy for her. Congratulations, Kucil.

I went to the reunion of my junior high class at a cafĂ© in South Jakarta. I’m sorry to say that I couldn’t recognize any of my old friends saved for a few persons. I even didn’t remember one of my quite close friends back then. Damn... They all looked so different. Many of the girls were wearing hijabs, and one ar two chicks were dressed like sluts. And the boys… Well, I mean guys, they also were so different. I knew Yoyo because I met him last year when I was with my brother, and he worked for a financial institution which had my brother’s office as its client. There were also DC and Baldy. I knew them instantly because we went to the same elementary school. And I gotta say because DC had been my first boyfriend. :p
I didn’t mingle much. I wasn’t really in the mood. I never like school reunions. It pisses me off when I couldn’t place someone’s face, then he/she would say, ‘Don’t you remember me? How could you?’ How should I react to that, dammit? I think we all should wear nametags to save the embarrassment of not remembering everyone’s names.
Right. I hadn’t been an outgoing person. So sue me… I didn’t talk much back in school days. At least in junior high. Reminiscing, junior high years were almost forgotten. I don’t have striking memories of it. I just breezed through those years. I couldn’t even be sure of who my best friends were back in those days. Crazy, huh? But what’s even weirder was that almost all of them remembered me! Did it mean that I didn’t change much, or that I have bad memory?
I didn’t have anything to talk about. I didn’t have any memories to share. I just listened to them, laughed at the right times, staring at some persons trying to remember them. All to no avail. It’s all hazy. I was like in another dimension. I guess I took the wrong decision to come to the reunion.And there’s gonna be another one next month. I hope it coincides with an event so I’ll have a legit reason not to come. :D
