I'm officially deg-degan. Bukan karena liat cowok cakep, biarpun emang bener ada 1 di depan mata, tapi deg-degan takut hasil kerjaan kita masih ada yang kurang. Udah berapa kali revisi, sampai melebihi jatah yang udah dijanjiin. Editor gue pada gak tidur seminggu. Gue hampir seminggu juga gak tidur. Untungnya masih sempet gaul juga siy semalem sama Menik dan Kucil. Hehee. Ini aja udah dimundurin 2 hari dari deadline, bukan karena kita yang sala, tapi karena kliennya yang nambah-nambah konten dengan cueknya tanpa mikirin bakal makan waktu sampe seberapa. Tapi demi sepiring nasi warteg dan sekarung berlian, kita jabanin aja deh. Hiks.

Semalem pulang jam 11an, trus tadi pagi jam 9 udah ditelpon Ryan nanyain gue bakal ketempat dia ato gak. Ya iyalah, masa mau langsung di-wrap tanpa gue lihat dulu hasilnya gimana... Kalo ada yang masih kurang, mampus aja kita. Hhhhhh... Akhirnya janjian dateng jam 12 dan gue didaulat untuk bawain makan siang. Anything deh asal kerjaan kita cepet kelar dan beres, guys. Bener aja, pas gue sampe, mereka masih ngedit, dan gue lihat masih ada yang kelewat sama mereka, belum diedit. Wuiiih... Nyariiisss...

Gue mantengin terus mereka pas ngedit, sambil facebookan juga siy, qiqiqiqiqi... Sambil bentar-bentar diganggu BB messages dari Boss Lady yang panikan kurang ini itu, padahal dia sendiri sebenernya juga gak paham dengan isi presentasi yang kita buat ini. Gue n Ryan udah bete abis mukanya asal ada bunyi telpon ato message. Sumpah, sore yang sangat stressful. Emang siy Boss Lady selalu gitu. Panik yang tidak perlu, gak perlu panik juga nanti semua beres. Dan yang gue gak nyangka, Ryan yang notabene orang luar pun bete dan protes ke gue tentang ibu bos yang satu itu. Wkwkwkwkwkwk... Semua orang siy protes sebenernya. Huahahahahaaa...

Thank Almighty, sekarang kita udah masuk tahap akhir. Tinggal rendering dan burning, then I have to bring these stuffs to our clint's home. OUR CLIENT'S HOME. WHICH IS IN WEST JAVA... HOW KAMPRET IS THAT????? Cita-cita pengen nonton di bioskop, ato at least duduk-duduk ngopi di Starbucks kembali hanya menjadi angan belaka. Shoot!! When this is finished, I'm gonna take some time for myself. I spent this whole weekend practically working. Only slipping in Menik and Kucil for a few hours yesterday. Oh well, I think I'm gonna swim for a whole day when it's all finished. :p

Special gratitude to my editors who haven't been home for a week. Mang enak, cuuy??? Qiqiqiqiqiqi... Tau deh lo sekarang gimana gue waktu event, gak pulang-pulang. Baru gini aja lo ngeluhnya udah kayak anak mama. Masa kalah sama cewek? :p Semangat! You guys are cool. 

Gonna wait for dinner while waiting for the rendering to be done. Tataa...

Again, at Starbucks. Menik is here, Kucil is still on the way. Listening to Menik telling about her feelings to Duypret. That asshole. I should kill him if he tries to get near her again! Prick! He hurts Menik so many times. He makes her cry over and over again. She knows it's an unhealthy relationship. But after last night, I really wish she would delete him from her life. No more anything about him. Turn a new leaf, cuy. Get better soon. And you, Duypret! You can just screw your own ass to the hell and don't come back!

Now the rant is over, let's talk about my days. On Thursday, there's an event. A big one in Ritz-Carlton, Pacific Place. It was crazy. There was no brief. We had to go by feeling. All were improvised. The rundown was revised all the time, even when the activity was going on. Nuts! And we didn't have any chance to sit. There were no seats in our booth! Damn! It's officially the shittiest event I was ever in. I can still feel my feet swollen. I need a reflexology badly.

Yesterday, I spent almost all day at Ryan's again. Revision, revision. Oh why don't you guys just accept it as it is? The presentation was already more than good. The flow was already correct. Why did you have to change it?? Aaaaarrrrrgh!!! Boss Lady was in such a state of panic that she wanted me to be at Ryan's until this thing is finished. I had too earn my keep, so I went. And let him did his work unsupervised while I caught my long lost sleep. He's good, didn't need me there. But thank God he understood how Boss Lady was like. He and the guys just laughed when I told them that I was only there to sleep. :p

The appointment was at 5 pm and we had to bring the presentation to be previewed by the client and my boss. At 4.30, we had just started rendering. At 5.30 we decided to burn it into the disk in the taxi. At 6.15 the client said that they were still in North Jakarta area. THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US EARLIER SO WE DIDN'T NEED TO RUSH LIKE THAT, KIND FREAKIN SIRS??? Dan mereka tiba jam 8.30 aja loh! Baek banget yak? Pengertian yang luar biasa... Ckckckk... And the meeting lasted at about 11 pm. Cantik dah. Pada ngerjain gue aja lo semua!

Today, again, I went to Ryan's. No more comments from him seeing me there. I know, bro. I know how it feels to crave holiday. So I just give them the rest of the data and told them I was going. They were kinda surprised at first. "It's raining, Bengal. You can leave later." Aaww. How sweet. But I just wanted to go somewhere quiet and forget about works. Ryan gave a parting shot, " Bagus, Ngal. Get a life. Don't work all the time." Hello, speak for yourself, bro! I know you're even busier than me. Hahahaaa. Welcome to real life.

So now, here I am. At Starbucks, Menik is pouring her heart out, waiting for Kucil, jazzy melody in the background, and snacking on Quiches. This is my favorite moment, when I don't have to work, and just be with my best friends. Doing nothing, sometimes even not talking. But it's a comfortable silence. We're here for each other, yet still have our own life. I'm cherishing it. Life is beautiful indeed. Thank you for small blessings. Thank you, God. Alhamdulillah.

Ngendon seharian di kantor Ryan. Dari tadi pagi sampe sekarang jam 9 malem, dan kayaknya masih lanjut terus niy. Kesian editornya. Mangap yak... Abis udah diuber deadline siy. Belum lagi kalo ntar ada revisi, kacau deh.

Makan siang sama Ryan dan Menik di resto Makassar gitu. Tadinya gue pengen pesen ribsnya, tapi pas sampe sana, mendadak ngerubah pesenan jadi coto. Udah lama gak makan coto plus buras. Trus Menik yang sampe duluan disana udah duluan pesen es isang ijo. Sadeeess... Gue kenalin Ryan ke Menik. Gak tau niy, si Menik gak terlihat berminat, padahal Ryan tu keren loh. Ganteng! *Ajiiib, tu bahasanya...* Cuman ya emang mungkin masalahnya karena baru kenal. Dan kayaknya Menik langsung veto karena dia udah jelas berondong. Wkwkwkwkwk...

Anyways, Menik uda ngajuin surat resign ke kantornya. Dia dapet tawaran dari Wendy, temen kita dulu di NtarTV. Dan dia ingin Menik langsung mulai. Gila aja kan. Lebih kurang seperti waktu gue cabut dari NtarTV dulu untuk pindah ke salah satu research company. Gue dateng interview hari ini, dia langsung nyuruh gue resign dan mulai minggu depannya. Dimana-mana juga rata-rata perusahaan minta 1 bulan setelah ngajuin resign baru kita bener-bener keluar. Hahahaaa... Well, selamat menempuh pekerjaan baru, cuy. :)

Sekarang udah jam 9 leat. Udah laper banget. Mau makan dulu ah. Baru kerja lagi. Begadang siy kayaknya, jadi butuh energi ekstra. Msti makan 2 porsi deh. Twew...

Rihanna - Russian Roulette



Russian Roulette - Rihanna

Take a Breathe, take a deal
Calm yourself, he says to me
If you play, you play for keeps
Take the gun and count to three
You're sweating now, moving slow
No time to think, my turn to go

And you can see my heart.. beating
You can see it through my chest
I'm terrified, but I'm not leaving
I know that I must pass this test
So just pull the trigger.....

Say a prayer to yourself
He says close your eyes, sometimes it helps
And then I get a scary thought
That he's here, means he's never lost

And you can see my heart.. beating
You can see it through my chest
I'm terrified, but I'm not leaving
I know that I must pass this test
So just pull the trigger.....

As my life flashes before my eyes
I'm wondering if I will ever see another sunrise
So many won't get the chance to say goodbye
But it's to late to think of the value of my life

And you can see my heart.. beating
You can see it through my chest
I'm terrified, but I'm not leaving
I know that I must pass this test
So just pull the trigger.....


Rihanna's new song. Cool beat. But the lyrics, well, sounds kinda like a fatalist, eh?

Duypret Tai!

Yesterday was the climax of Menik's heartbreak. At least I hope so. I don't want her to stoop lower than this. This should be her turning point. Delete him from your life, cuy. In this case, Kunti's strategy is an effective one. Hehee... He disappointed her again. And in a very not nice way. Laki gak tau diri!

She arrived, went to our table, and cried. only that is enough for making me crackling my knuckles and give my sweet fist to his face, hard. What an evening. That guy needs to be give a lesson for treating her like that. Inhumanly, unfeelingly, and kurangajarly. Mampus aja lo, laki pembawa sial!!

Back at the same spot as last night, this time I'm alone. Menik is on a meeting with her prospective boss who is also our friend back when we all still in NtarTipi. Kucil is on her way here. Long time no hangout all three of us. :)

Anyways, I read my previous posting and came out with the fact that the current guy is only good for sex, not wit. Before I'm with him, I never thought that it would be a problem. But oh well, let me just use him while I can. After all, it's a mutual symbiosm, right? We both get something out of this thing.

I searched for sex blogs and found Zoe Margolis' blog, and the controversy that surrounded her outed previously secret identity. Linked to other blogs and articles, then I found about NightJack and his also outed identity. As the result, his blog had been deleted. The culprit for both cases was The Times, a British paper. I just can't get it in my mind, why would those so called journalists do such things. Nothing got out of it but unnecessary troubles, wrecked lives of the bloggers, and so on. Did they think it's great journalism? I guess they had, and still have, illusions of being famous journalist, and in time would make them high profiled such as Christiane Ammanpour and Riz Khan. Teehee. No wisdoms, only trashy thinking. Shame on you, Brit papers!

Right, enough on that subject. A billion critics won't be able to change their misled way of thinking. Instead, let's enjoy coffee and some bloghopping. Wishing for Kucil and Menik to come soon. Gonna watch a movie, and who knows? Maybe steak for dinner?

Bengal and CrewCut in Early December

Mulai berasa garing lagi. Hidup datar gitu. Almost always swamped with work. Can't barely meet with the gals. And no sex. Tweuww...

Been stucked with CrewCut these past few months. The appeal has started to wear off. At least from my side. I'm not as attracted to him as before. So he's the most appealing guy in the office. But I don't know. He sounded stupid sometimes. And always makes me sort of disgusted by his written language, be it SMS or emails. Yaiks. I can't stand illiterate or intellectual people. At least, for a partner, even if it's for physical things, I still expect some witty remarks or enough knowledge on some worldly and popular stuff. Not being arrogant, stupid as I am, he's still not a match intellectually. Damn! 

Ah well, he's not totally useless. At least I can save my transport money. Hehee. I'm a bitch. Some kind of slut, even. But hey, a girl needs to survive, right? One way or another, I get some physical, and an extra saving on the side. *Wink*
