Tambang minyak
Karena ati gw udah sedikit tenang akibat CNY gathering, marah2nya gw tunda dulu deh soal 6.9MM penduduk.... sambil ngarep2 pemerintah bikin MRT 3 layer kl sampe itu kejadian...
Anyway : tambang minyak !!
Kl gw punya satu....gw udah ga kerja kali sekarang !! hehehehe :) Pasti kerjanya gw jadi producer musical aje deh sepanjang taon !! Cari story, cari talent, cari venue ...en segala embel embelnya.....
Sayangnya, tambang minyak yg gw punya cuman minyak di wajah gw :P hehehehe :) Jadi postingan gw kali ini mungkin ga penting pada bagi khalayak ramai. Masalah minyak di wajah en perawatan wajah :)
Sah ..... kayak jagoan ajah gw :P muka gw sendiri asli kagak mulus2 bener !! Buat yg kenal gw dari zaman sedikit jebot, pasti pernah inget fase muka gw yg WOW !! Kayak kawah gunung meletush yak !!
Sampe kelas 5 SD (sebelon puber), kulit gw termasuk salah sembilan atau salah sepuluh dari anak2 angkatan gw yg mulush bersih putih. Sampe datenglah kedewasaan, menjemput pergi kemulusan wajah gw... saat itu saya masih berusia 12 tahun (nostalgila mode)
Sejak saat itu, goodbye fair and smooth skin !! Though emang ga separah dede gw, muka gw udah ngalemin fase pergi ke dokter di jakarta, facial sampe berdarah darah, tidur kayak dracula alias muka super putih karena sekujur muka pake Clearasil full terus ditumpuk bedak herocyn (masih inget ga clearasil ? Obat jerawat paling tenar bin kesohor buat anak2 yg seangkatan gw, bukan babe gw, simply gara2 iklan dia di tepe cukup uwaw uwaw geto). Some other days, gw udah pake ramuan alcohol campul purol campur herocyn taro di muka.
Eh masihhhhh aja...kemulusan tak kunjung datang, jerawat tak kunjung pergi.
Sampe, di taon 2008 waktu gw balik dari China trip yg bikin muka gw busyett dahhhhh .... parah pol jerawatnya, gw decide buat end this agony !! Ayoh cari dokter pro di Singapore yg bagusan en udah terbukti hasilnya. Mahal dikit, tahanin ajah !! Kencengen ikat tali pinggang !!
So pergilah gw ke dokter tenar di Toa Payoh, yg gw dah liat hasilnya di muka temen gw yg literally glowing !! Bersinar gitu (ga lebay !! ) Hasil dari si dokter itu bukan instant abrakadabra tring tring keluar muka baru dalam 2 minggu tapi yah ......
Dia kasih gw 2 option. Jalan mahal 2 minggu (400 - 500 dollar) en jalan murahan dikit (200-300 an for couple of months). So I took cheaper 6 months, painful steps, dimana ini muka ngalemin fase uler alias peeling nnnnnoooooonnnnn stop, yg kl gw pake kaos item lap muka gw, langsung itu kaos jadi kayak abis lap kepala yg full ketombe !!
Kadang kl iseng, gw ambil anduk yg cukup kasar buat skalian ngamplas muka gw pas lagi mandi !! Puash rasanya copot semua tuh kulit !! In between 6 bulan itu juga, muka gw jadi semerah kepiting, en pernah pori2 gw sempet jadi gede bener, leibh gede dari jeruk :P
Setelah 6 bulan sakit2....akhirnya muka gw ngalemin pencerahan !! It started to be mulush-er and it started to glow.... dan sejak mid 2008 muka gw udah ngalemin fase "Thank you Jesus!!" Sometimes berasa kayak abish pake SKII (lebay.net.sunrisegarden.id)
Ngalor ngidul ngomong gini banyak, gw cuman mo bilang gini seh benernya :
1> Masih ada harapan buat siapapun jg yg mukanya kagak mulus seperti gw !! Yg penting, find good doctors !! If you wish to find out mine, I will gladly tell you. Dia ga terlalu mahal jg banding beli SKII atau perawatan lainnya.Dulu gw sempet berpikir there's no hope for my face. Sampe gw dapet pencerahan en terima kenyataan, ada harga ada barang !! hehehe
2> Muka gw ini....OILY !! Dot!! Dari kecil, ini muka kayak tambang minyak. Tau keisengan gw wkt kecil apa ? Pagi2 waktu bangun tidur, gw suka banget cuci penggaris busur, terus pelan2 gw serot itu penggaris busur di T-Zone gw. Ngumpulin minyak. Terus gw lap si penggaris pake tissue, cuci lagi si penggaris busur.
Nah, muka oily ini turunan dari babe en nyak yg emang jerawat mereka berdua sempet gone to serious case juga dimana mereka perlu ke dokter berkali kali. Gw pasrah terima nasib minyak ini dengan senang hati now, not necessarily then.
Why ? Karena benernya, minyak di muka ini yg bikin kita jadi lebih lama keriputan.
Nah, gw yg ga ngerti ini dulu, demen banget kan basmi minyak sama oil blotter. Padahal ini benernya malah nambah produksi minyak di muka kita, which in the end malah tambah jerawat. So buat yg sering nge blot, dikurangin dikit yah dari sekarang ? Pake blotter secukupnya, jangan terlalu sering. Karena naturally body kita punya system buat adjust humidity di muka kita. Kl kita sering2 wipe, it reads the fact that muka kita kurang moist, in which dia malah produce more oil to humidify the face.
3> Cara pake oil blotter yg bener itu ditempel di daerah minyak, terus dorong2 dikit sampe minyaknya keserep. Selesai satu area, angkat blot papernya, pindahin ke daerha lain. Yg ga bener, ditempelin terus di bawa puter2 satu muka kayak pake anduk lap muka (yg sering gw lakukan benernya, karena gw yg model males do the the first step). Gw jg masih belajar sabar buat lakuin langkah blot oil yg benar :)
4> Kl ada choice, en kl mukanya ga terlalu oily, coba angkat oilnya pake clean white tissue, instead of oil blot. At least dia ga take out all the necessary moist on the face.
5> Last, but not least, as I say above, a necessary amount of oil in our face is totally necessary buat jaga kita against wrinkle. Jadi, don't hate the oily face. Yg mukanya berminyak kayak gw and you are much younger than me, sabar2 yah. As we grow older, our oil production jg adjust to much lesser. At one point, jerawat jg bakalan ga seganas zaman aktif2nya kita as teens. In fact, by then kita bakalan wish for our face to be slightly a little bit more active, coz as the oil goes away, the wrinkles come in.
6> Final note : no matter how smooth and fair your skin is now, treat your face skin right from young age. Do the necessary treatment !! Do !! Gw jg orang yg malesh do all that kl emang ini muka ga jerawatan. But no denying, we need it ! So do the most basic from young: use SUN BLOCK !!! Super penting !! And when the age come, moisturize moisturize moisturize !!
In the end, mari kita embrace tambang minyak di muka kita :) Sambil dirawat sepenuh dan seperlunya :) Spt kata pepatah, ga ada cewek jelek !! Cuman ada cewek malesh :P
Hidup minyak !! Huat ah !!
Anyway : tambang minyak !!
Kl gw punya satu....gw udah ga kerja kali sekarang !! hehehehe :) Pasti kerjanya gw jadi producer musical aje deh sepanjang taon !! Cari story, cari talent, cari venue ...en segala embel embelnya.....

ok deh..... saatnya buat angkat suara
On my way pulang indo buat CNY en pesawat ayee delay 40 menit.
Now, dalam waktu 12 menit gw perlu selesai-in this posting.
Dan karena udah di-endorse, maka gw ga ragu2 lagi buat angkat suara buat topik lg hot bener di FB gw, esp temen2 gw yg Singaporean.
Yup : si white paper, rencana pemerintah buat nambahin mahluk di bumi Singapura jadi 6.9MM (baca 6.9 juta) jiwa.
Okay, gw ga akan jadi anak durhaka yg lupa kulit ataupun akar. Gw ngerti gw dateng Singapore because the lovely government (then) sangat welcome foreigner2 spt gw disini. Dan : tentunya gw bersyukur.
Hari berjalan, dari yg awalnya susah bener gw masuk ke lingkungan Singapore, susah temenan sama orang Singapore, sampe akhirnya gw masuk dunia kerja en temenan sama ...makin banyak Singaporeans, some are definitely will be my friends for life (Kiyoko).....tentunya kecintaaan gw terhadap negara ini dikit2 makin dipupuk...
Ga dipungkiri, with the added years and fact that I know, buat gw pulang Indo seh itu butuh muzizat punya, chance dan will gw buat ganti warna passport udah makin deket ke 80 :20
HOWEVER, news 6.9MM yg marak bener dari 2 minggu lalu bikin gw....take a step back... abit.
Gw bukan Singaporean, tp kebayang ga Jakartee kite yg punya masalah nyang sama (failing birth rate). Terus datengin foreigners2 dari negeri tetangga. Dan coba bayangin kita kerja di jakarta dalam kondisi gitu. Terus jalan2 di mall kanan kiri dengernya bahasa tetangge selain English en Belandee... dimane mane...
Bayangin sedikit itu aja, gw cukup miris. Ga malu2 gw akan declare kl gw cukup simpati sama orang2 SG yg kl naek MRT, bahasa yg rame sometimes bukan Singlish. Apalagi holiday season....yah tau sendiri lah yah kl negare kite demen banget jalan2 wisata kesini
Nah mungkin emang kita bukan SG-an. Tp pake akal sehat mikir aja lah yah, en imagine you are parents gimana anak2 SG ke depannya belajar their core values, personality and culture kl geto ?
Dan ember leh, kl tempat kerja di invade terus terus and terusan sama additional orang, kasian ga seh competitionnya mereka di kedepannya ????
Wah ini makin lama ngomong gw makin sounded like SG-an ini... hahah makanya gw bilang 80:20 gw chance gw lunturin passport.
Now balik ke topik utama si 6.9MM. Waktu dengeri 6.9MM itu, langsung ratio gw mo ganti passport juga ikutan luntur jadi 50:50 lagi. Kenapa ?
Karena gw (en loe2 pada juga) adalah korban yg ngerasain panasnya, demeknya, ga enaknya dempet2an di MRT, Bus, or susah dapet Cab, plush mobil yg harganya makin ajee gilee !! Gw dateng kesini mencoba cari sedikit tempat buat nafas di luar seseknya kota Jakarta. Kl negara singa tercinta ini punya orientasi buat jadi Hongkong di masa depan, lah apa yah ga mendingan gw ke HK sekalian, denger2 gaji juga mendingan ?
En...reaksi dari Singapore pplnya juga, kl dibaca baik2....marak bener euy!! Coba cari Mr. Inderjit Singh punya speech di parliament. Gw akuin dia mungkin sounded agak sedikit (buat yg sensitive pasti berasa banyak) menyudutkan foreigners. Kl dah gini, pasti dong ga ada temen2 Indo kita yg ngelike this review di FB, betul ??
Kenyataanya ga demikian. Gw like the page and I can find some Indo friends who like the page too. Dia speak from valid points. Yg namanya bikin orang jadi tertanam rasa patriotisme en kecintaan di suatu negara itu doesn't take 2-3 years or even 5 years. Gw udah idup disini selama 12 taon, en liat chance gw buat lunturin passport, masih cuman 80:20. 12 Taon !!
12 Taon gw disini, dan lidah en hati gw....once in a while, masih berpulang ke Indo.
Terus coba liat chartnya 6.9MM. Singaporean nya cuman 4 juta (itu udah di added foreigners yg take citizenship). All in all, SG-an jadi cuman sekitar 3.5MM. 50% dari 6.9MM. Kasian ga seh ??
Yah... ini napa gw ranting soal beginian pas mo pulang Indo buat CNY coba. HAHAHA :p
Yah .... gw ngomong segini dulu deh. Bakal gw tambahin lagi sepatah dua patah kata soal ini hot topic. Gw juga hots, se hots hot topic ini.
Now, dalam waktu 12 menit gw perlu selesai-in this posting.

January yang takkan kembali
Padahal February baru lewat 5 hari ....Tapi somehow gw kangen last January .... mungkin coz last January feels SO DIFFERENT than any other January I've ever had :)
Pertama tama.. well ini berita basi...tapi sorry bener buat yg bln gw kasih tau :P Ceritanya neh...aye promosi teman temin *ahoyyyy ... Setelah 4.5 taon gersang ga denger kata P, akhirnya jawaban doa gw tiba juga *drama.com
Buat yg dah pernah di promosi, pasti ngerti pai seh nya kl di selamatin buat promosi itu gimana. Soalnya benernya kl di grafikkin seh ati gw dah kayak lampu disco neon kedap kedip alongside Black eye pea song ala kutu loncat kerasukan ... seneng tiada tara gitu loh !!
Yah gimana ga seneng seh 4.5 taon cuyyyyyyyy !!! lama ajeeeeehhh... kl punya anak udah K1 ituh !! Pertama kali promo after gw lewat 2.5 taon kerja, terus naek ke second levelnya cepet bener !! 2 years only !! Nah..abis itu donk....gersangggg bener!! Sampe2 aer mata udah netes 10 ember kali #lebay
Nah karena itulah, kl diselamatin pas promosi jadi bingung getoh mo kasih expresi yg gimana....karena yah loe tau lah, ga semuanya yg nyelamatin loe itu tulus nyelamatin (hehehehehe....kerja dan politiknya)....tp tetep jg ada suporter sejati loe yg bener2 tulus selamatin loe...yg loe bisa tear up kl liat expresi mereka jg... en juga karena emang loe bingung gitu mo reaksi gimana....kayak banyak orang think that a big thing while di gw mungkin see that not so big thing karena halloooo....udah 4.5 taon dari terakhir gw di promosi cuy ?? kl masih ga dpt mah mending gw mikir ulang ini kerjaan buat gw apa bukan ...... but at the same time this not so small thing too actually.....heh...jelasinnya aja bingung :P ehhehehh
Cuman yah gitu, ga mungkin donk loe mesem ga jelas kasih liat muka loe yg kayak lagi jatoh cintrong geto kejatohan bulan getho.... yah pokoknya susah deh jaga ekspresi yg bener
Karena itulah hari itu gw cuman tulis di FB kl gw bener bener SENENG AMAT SANGAT LUAR BIASA !!!! yg disangka sama Lydia and Dachan urusan Israel... ehheehh :P maap ye kl gw ga correct loe orang :P
Anyway kl boleh ngomong jujur gw benernya udah ngarep banget dipromosiin awal taon lalu en cukup kecewa (read : nangis) wkt gw ga dapet last year !! But you know what ? God's know the best timing !! Have I learned alot more in 2012, things that I have never learnt for 8 years in the bank before ? Oh yes definitely !! So, do I think that I deserve the promo more now in 2013 than then in 2012 ?
No. Hehe....Gw tetep ngerasa, technically and knowledge wise, I had had what it takes back then in 2012. BUT...there's a but off course. God gives me 1 year, a year of seasoning & maturing ! It's not the growth of what can learned over text book or training that I got in the last one year! It's the growth of intangible knowledge that only age and seasons, can bring :)
And for that, saya senang telah dibuat Tuhan untuk menunggu:) Gw yakin ga ada yg aminin ini sentence karena kita manusia paling ga suka nunggu..hehe.. bener apa bener ??
Dan lanjut dari soal nunggu, Ko Harun kemaren itu khotbah di salah satu kebaktian 3 in January speaking about Jesus word di wedding at Canna yg bilang "What do you want me to do woman? My time is not right (not here) yet"
So di minggu itu, ceritanya gw harus deal sama satu client. Sang Mr ini cukup low profile accountnya. Cuman aja dia bukan org yg low profile dalam idupnya. Sebut saja beliau pernah menjabat jadi yg plg tinggi dari satu jawatan di indo yg kl di singapore equivalent to PUB. Nah, tebak sendiri aja yah instansinya apa :P So gw udah coba contact Mr ini dengan berbagai daya cara dan upaya. Ada deadline yg harus gw penuhin buat account dia.
Since dia cukup merupakan orang penting dalam kehidupannya sehari hari, wajar kl beliau sibuk. Upaya gw buat hubungin sang Mr hanya berhasil sekali sajah titik. Selanjutnya, mulailah my drying effort buat contact sang Mr, karena memang gw juga ga mo ganggu dia terus terusan since gw inget beliau adalah orang sibuk en penting. So akhirnya sampelah kita ke deket hari deadlinenya, gw pun ngirik bendera putih setengah tiang alias berduka atas kegagalan gw !!
Tgl deadlinenya gw ga bakal lupa, well siapa yg bakal lupa coba. Hari banjir sejakarte : 17 Jan 2013. So tanggal 16 Jan malem gw sampe sedikit OT muter pala buat siapin memo akibat kegagalan gw dapetin tanda tangan Mr tenar ini.
Tgl 17 Januari pagi, memo yg dah gw siapin perlu ditanda tanganin banyak atasan! So gw baca sekali lagi, print out, en kasih atasan #1 tanda tangan.
Guess what dong ? Jam 12.30 siang, Mr. Tenar X TELEPON gw, bilang gw dgn happynya kl dia udah merespond apa yg gw request, dan semuanya udah siap di email gw !!..TADAAAAA !!!
Selesai telpon tutup, memo yg dah gw siapin dengan sedikit tetes keringet malam sebelomnya dan tentunya mubazir sekarang, balik ke tangan gw !!
Langsung gw inget khotbah Ko Harun :) Woman, what do you want me to do ? Well I want You to enable me to contact Mr. Popular X Lord. But woman, My time is not here yet, and My ways are not your ways. Truly, manusia bisa berusaha tp emang bener "You hold my world in Your Hands" Tepat 17 Januari..... pas dunia lagi pusing sama banjir, Mr Tenar X bisa inget buat contact gw !! Kl bukan Tuhan, siapa ??
Yup !! cuman Tuhan yang bisa kerjain semua itu, dan cuman Tuhan juga yg udah keluarin Papa gw dari rumah sakit setelah check up kemaren, with a VERY GOOD notes, free of cancer ataupun tumour... Jadi masuklah kita ke topic ke 3 yaitu my babe !!
Tepat di saat kantor gw masuk ke historical breaking moment dimana kita break deals record achievement yg berakibat kita harus draw a new system approach to work under very tight deadline di tanggal 31 January, di minggu yg sama bokap gw decide buat biopsi buat cari tau benjolan di bodynya yg mungkin bikin pipisnya berdarah itu, apah benernya : tumor/ kanker/ bukan apa2 ?
Caranya : biopsi !! Denger kata biopsi seh gw jiper, palagi denger penjelasannya dari dede gw yg belajar medical. Bokap seh jiper sampe ga bisa tidur jam 4 pagi katanya. Di sisi gw seh yah spt biasa. Worry gw ga keliatan kl diliat pake mata biasa, tp dibalik muka gw, pikiran gw focus terus ke this biopsi thingy. One side gw takut on the outcome, but another side gw berasa "Who knows if God has His own way to deal with my Dad !! " Off course gw maunya all clean, tp kl sampe ga ?
Jadi bokap masuk rumah sakitnya selasa kemaren, rabu malemnya itu operasi biopsinya. Hari itu gw temenin El ke Savour (thank you El btw ngajak gw makan enak). Seblon pergi gw titip doa panjang lebar ke Jenita en Icha yg bakalan FA hari itu.
Malemnya Dede gw telepon laporan....en puji Tuhan : my dad is clean of any of those what we feared off. Pffffhhhh. Gw got the news in MRT. Gw sampe pull oneside dulu to breathe, praise, and Thank God !! Phew.....That feeling of freedom is so liberating !!
Dan kalo mo tambahin cerita manis2nya January, akan gw summarize in these following points :
1> I thank God for re-burning my passion for Him, for being & serving in TLG, for serving in TLG Danz, and believe it or not : FA Blessed and ....Royal yg sering gw crash malam sabtu dinnernya !
2> Buat Depots, buat Gill, buat El, buat Xilin, Kiyoko dan for all da girlfriends in my life
3> Buat bonus #hehehehehe en buat increment
4> For family and relatives in SG :)
Oh my friend : God is good, all the time and all the time God is good !! Betul ??
With that I end this posting, Thanking God It's (was) January !!
and now, hellow February !!!
bombie {=^o^=}

Cuman yah gitu, ga mungkin donk loe mesem ga jelas kasih liat muka loe yg kayak lagi jatoh cintrong geto kejatohan bulan getho.... yah pokoknya susah deh jaga ekspresi yg bener
Karena itulah hari itu gw cuman tulis di FB kl gw bener bener SENENG AMAT SANGAT LUAR BIASA !!!! yg disangka sama Lydia and Dachan urusan Israel... ehheehh :P maap ye kl gw ga correct loe orang :P
Anyway kl boleh ngomong jujur gw benernya udah ngarep banget dipromosiin awal taon lalu en cukup kecewa (read : nangis) wkt gw ga dapet last year !! But you know what ? God's know the best timing !! Have I learned alot more in 2012, things that I have never learnt for 8 years in the bank before ? Oh yes definitely !! So, do I think that I deserve the promo more now in 2013 than then in 2012 ?
No. Hehe....Gw tetep ngerasa, technically and knowledge wise, I had had what it takes back then in 2012. BUT...there's a but off course. God gives me 1 year, a year of seasoning & maturing ! It's not the growth of what can learned over text book or training that I got in the last one year! It's the growth of intangible knowledge that only age and seasons, can bring :)
And for that, saya senang telah dibuat Tuhan untuk menunggu:) Gw yakin ga ada yg aminin ini sentence karena kita manusia paling ga suka nunggu..hehe.. bener apa bener ??
Dan lanjut dari soal nunggu, Ko Harun kemaren itu khotbah di salah satu kebaktian 3 in January speaking about Jesus word di wedding at Canna yg bilang "What do you want me to do woman? My time is not right (not here) yet"
So di minggu itu, ceritanya gw harus deal sama satu client. Sang Mr ini cukup low profile accountnya. Cuman aja dia bukan org yg low profile dalam idupnya. Sebut saja beliau pernah menjabat jadi yg plg tinggi dari satu jawatan di indo yg kl di singapore equivalent to PUB. Nah, tebak sendiri aja yah instansinya apa :P So gw udah coba contact Mr ini dengan berbagai daya cara dan upaya. Ada deadline yg harus gw penuhin buat account dia.
Since dia cukup merupakan orang penting dalam kehidupannya sehari hari, wajar kl beliau sibuk. Upaya gw buat hubungin sang Mr hanya berhasil sekali sajah titik. Selanjutnya, mulailah my drying effort buat contact sang Mr, karena memang gw juga ga mo ganggu dia terus terusan since gw inget beliau adalah orang sibuk en penting. So akhirnya sampelah kita ke deket hari deadlinenya, gw pun ngirik bendera putih setengah tiang alias berduka atas kegagalan gw !!
Tgl deadlinenya gw ga bakal lupa, well siapa yg bakal lupa coba. Hari banjir sejakarte : 17 Jan 2013. So tanggal 16 Jan malem gw sampe sedikit OT muter pala buat siapin memo akibat kegagalan gw dapetin tanda tangan Mr tenar ini.
Tgl 17 Januari pagi, memo yg dah gw siapin perlu ditanda tanganin banyak atasan! So gw baca sekali lagi, print out, en kasih atasan #1 tanda tangan.
Guess what dong ? Jam 12.30 siang, Mr. Tenar X TELEPON gw, bilang gw dgn happynya kl dia udah merespond apa yg gw request, dan semuanya udah siap di email gw !!..TADAAAAA !!!
Selesai telpon tutup, memo yg dah gw siapin dengan sedikit tetes keringet malam sebelomnya dan tentunya mubazir sekarang, balik ke tangan gw !!
Langsung gw inget khotbah Ko Harun :) Woman, what do you want me to do ? Well I want You to enable me to contact Mr. Popular X Lord. But woman, My time is not here yet, and My ways are not your ways. Truly, manusia bisa berusaha tp emang bener "You hold my world in Your Hands" Tepat 17 Januari..... pas dunia lagi pusing sama banjir, Mr Tenar X bisa inget buat contact gw !! Kl bukan Tuhan, siapa ??
Yup !! cuman Tuhan yang bisa kerjain semua itu, dan cuman Tuhan juga yg udah keluarin Papa gw dari rumah sakit setelah check up kemaren, with a VERY GOOD notes, free of cancer ataupun tumour... Jadi masuklah kita ke topic ke 3 yaitu my babe !!
Tepat di saat kantor gw masuk ke historical breaking moment dimana kita break deals record achievement yg berakibat kita harus draw a new system approach to work under very tight deadline di tanggal 31 January, di minggu yg sama bokap gw decide buat biopsi buat cari tau benjolan di bodynya yg mungkin bikin pipisnya berdarah itu, apah benernya : tumor/ kanker/ bukan apa2 ?
Caranya : biopsi !! Denger kata biopsi seh gw jiper, palagi denger penjelasannya dari dede gw yg belajar medical. Bokap seh jiper sampe ga bisa tidur jam 4 pagi katanya. Di sisi gw seh yah spt biasa. Worry gw ga keliatan kl diliat pake mata biasa, tp dibalik muka gw, pikiran gw focus terus ke this biopsi thingy. One side gw takut on the outcome, but another side gw berasa "Who knows if God has His own way to deal with my Dad !! " Off course gw maunya all clean, tp kl sampe ga ?
Jadi bokap masuk rumah sakitnya selasa kemaren, rabu malemnya itu operasi biopsinya. Hari itu gw temenin El ke Savour (thank you El btw ngajak gw makan enak). Seblon pergi gw titip doa panjang lebar ke Jenita en Icha yg bakalan FA hari itu.
Malemnya Dede gw telepon laporan....en puji Tuhan : my dad is clean of any of those what we feared off. Pffffhhhh. Gw got the news in MRT. Gw sampe pull oneside dulu to breathe, praise, and Thank God !! Phew.....That feeling of freedom is so liberating !!
Dan kalo mo tambahin cerita manis2nya January, akan gw summarize in these following points :
1> I thank God for re-burning my passion for Him, for being & serving in TLG, for serving in TLG Danz, and believe it or not : FA Blessed and ....Royal yg sering gw crash malam sabtu dinnernya !
2> Buat Depots, buat Gill, buat El, buat Xilin, Kiyoko dan for all da girlfriends in my life
3> Buat bonus #hehehehehe en buat increment
4> For family and relatives in SG :)
Oh my friend : God is good, all the time and all the time God is good !! Betul ??
With that I end this posting, Thanking God It's (was) January !!
and now, hellow February !!!

#31Dec2012
A year ago, the Dragon Ball minus their Chief Rimbo, are at hongkong !! We ate Dim Sum, then proceed to eat tsui wah (Chan brothers da bao ing yung kee)...before proceeding to walk near the harbor to watch fireworks !! By 2 AM...we're back at Regal I Club, praying for the new 2012. Any good guess would have said that I will not survive 2012 if not for that prayer that evening :) Thank you Tanto Su.... *a year of Hongkong in remembrance*
Yup, by the time I'm writing this, it's Monday December 31' 2012. Waktu menunjukkan pukul 15.03PM Jakarta Time WIB. Bertempat di kediaman babe dan nyak aye, aye tutup blog aye di 2012 yang asli dikit bener postingannya....ibarat rupiah yang agak2 jatoh taon ini.....begitu pula jumlah postingan aye di taon 2012.
(gaya bahasa berita presenter)
Jadi pemirsa, telah sekian lama semenjak saya menulis postingan saya yang terakhir, yaitu di bulan lalu di November 2012. Sejak dari itu, beberapa hal (tepatnya banyak sekali hal) telah berlangsung, di antaranya sebagai berikut :
1> Acara thanksgiving dadakan yang berlangsung di kediaman saya di Singapura bersama para personil gokil dari keluarga Royals dan bintang tamu Bern Yeremia
2> Dinner and dance kantor saya yang bertepat tanggal 29 November 2012 lalu di Novotel Clarke Quay, dimana saya sekali lagi ditarik di menit terakhir untuk ikut berpartisipasi menjadi penari latar dan tentunya group kami hanya berhasil mendapat posisi ketiga karena ketidaksiapan kami
3> berlanjut dengan acara Natal dan YRC service yang terakhir dari TLG ministry yang berlangsung pada tanggal 1 Desember lalu, yang dapat saya katakan berlangsung dengan luar biasa mulus dan lancar berkat anugrah yang luar biasa dari Yesus Kristus yang maha mulia. Sungguh sebuah kerjasama yang sangat baik dari the 2 homeboy Yohanes Wijaya dan Glenn Chua beserta para panitia yang ada !! Great job guys !!
4> Dan tentunya kita tidak dapat melupakan pernikahan yang telah ditunggu tunggu banyak pihak selama 6 tahun terakhir ini, yaitu di tanggal 8 Desember yang lalu, bertempat di CHIJMES Singapore, saudara Willy Kurniawan mempersunting belahan jiwanya : saudari Yoanalita Sulaiman Lai dalam acara pernikahan yang luar biasa kudus, suci, hangat dan sangat berkesan bagi semua undangan yang hadir. Berkat yang melimpah dan luar biasa kita doakan untuk pasangan rumah tangga yang baru ini.
5> Sejak hari itu jugalah, hadir adik saya berserta ipar saya di Singapura, dan dimulailah minggu kami yang dipenuhi dengan acara makan, makan dan makan lagi. Di hari minggu 9 Desember, kami makan malam di Spruce tanglin. Tak lupa saya menumpang berenang di hari minggu dan nge gym di hari senin, di MBS hotel yang mereka tinggali selama 2 hari tersebut. Dan puncaknya, di hari Jumat tanggal 14 Desember, pergilah kami untuk no bar (nonton bareng) Hobbit di IMAX 3D Lido, bersama dengan sepupu2 yang lain, sebelum kami makan di Bangkok Jam di Shaw building. Dan di hari Sabtu tanggal 15 Desember, kami menjalani program yang bernama "The ultimate garden experience", sebuah program yang di design khusus bagi adik dan ipar saya, oleh sepupu saya Margie dan suaminya. Program ini diawali dengan makan siang di Summer Pavilion Ritz Carlton hotel, lalu kami beralih ke garden by the Bay, berjalan sambil menikmati indahnya tanaman2 langka dan hiasan yang bertemakan Natal, sebelum akhirnya kami mengakhiri hari tersebut dengan makan malam yang sungguh nikmat di salah satu restoran jepang yang spi di daerah Robertson Quay yang bernama "Satchuma". Suatu hari, saya pasti akan kembali ke tempat ini dan tentunya, saya akan mengajak satu atau dua dari para pemirsa yang beruntung :) What an "Ultimate Garden Experience" !!
(sampai disini saja saya akan berbahasa presenter, karena sungguh sangat melelahkan berbicara sedemikian rupa)
So those are my December "adventures". Call it adventure so it can sound abit fun, when actually...really...surviving such an attack of events on every weekends with tough weekdays during end of the year period, added with all the commitments that one have which are:
1> writing appraisal for what I thought should be 5 people, which turns out to be 6 ppl #braindrainingexercise
2> writing MC script for the wedding
3> choreoing for TLG flash mob
4> supervising TLG Christmas preparation
5> that point where I was dragged to participate in DnD again...
6> And.....even.... the supposedly fun Christmas gift shopping that is......totally not fun at all to drain your brain thinking for gifts to 20-30 people)
These list of works are .....seriously my friend : it is TOTALLY OBVIOUSLY......BLEHHHH !!! YUCKS !! OWEEEEKKKKKK !!!
To reach December 22' 2012 when I finally about to fly home (and still burdened with some thoughts on whether I should stay for flash mob).... felt like I have conquered the challenge to win some gold medals to stay that long in Singapore !!
heh .... yup... I'm whining...whining for the last few horrible weeks of 2012 where I went home from office at 8-9 PM daily..... THANK GOD it is soon to be over !! Coz no no no no.... December is nightmare in Banking world !!
And in actual... if I may... I wish to whine, complain, and curcol some more on 2012. How has it been for you my friend ? Other than finding my love for running, the unexpected surprised holiday trip to London, the family trips, TLG Danz and all the sweeties of 2012 (not many honestly)...this year has been....hmph...
It has been a year when I'm forced to push the boundaries of my understanding and my behavior of being a mature adult!!
It has been a year when I'm fully agreeing with what Pak Niko says :
Kalau saudara mau dipromosikan oleh Tuhan, saudara harus mau di proses habis habisan !!
It has been a year when tears have served no particular purpose nor symbolize any meaningful message when they flow. It has been a year full of personal hardships that craft some deep imprints in my weak and fragile heart. It has been a year, where words spoken could no longer save one out from the agony of wandering living. It has been a year, when I finally take my stand against conformity and make my feelings known, with a big bang action that's called : walking away !!
It has been a year.....where I just raise my hands up....and eat in all demands thrown directly right to my direction...without a word....without a fight..and complete what were asked out of me !! It has been a year of surrendering !!
It has been a year....where I gave up on my own undertanding....and gave a good fight on my faith that "God works in all things to bring the goodness to the people He loves" to press on
Eventually : God wins !! Faith Wins !! Love wins !!
I do not walk out the same !!
I am healed, which mean to say that I was once hurt !! I'm saved, which says I was once lost !! I'm freed, yes I was imprisoned !
And in such a tough year, I found TLG Danz reaching it's new height, new calling, new purpose ! Found my boss finally giving me the high mark for my office work. Found friends that are worth keeping and fighting for...and found my way back to Blessed !
What a year of contrast !! And how contrasting it has been compared to the super sweeties best of the best 2011 !!
I'm glad you are over 2012 !! Thank you for all the lesson and hardships !! Thank you for forcing me to grow !! Thank you for making me sure that "He will be with me till the end of time. He shall never leave me nor forsake me in times of need"
For now..... Au revoir !! Adios !! GOODBYE 2012 !!!! You've been mostly bad...God has been always good :)
#home
Gillian Sastra pernah berkata : loe active yah kl nge blog di indo ?? Yet gw dah pulang dari tanggal 22 Desember kemaren en baru di tanggal 31 Desember ini gw blogging !!
Why ? Karena dari tanggal 22 Desember kemaren: hari bersejarah buat Mas Ceka yg udah umur sa chap sekarang, dan hari yg bakal memorable for many ppl soalnya muacet en buanjir dimana mana....sampe tanggal 29 Desember kemaren....gw tinggal di rumah DD gw.
Rumah DD gw ada internet jelas...wifi pun ada....PC jg ada... Tapi bener kata pepatah : There's no place like home. Inti cerita gw seharusnya dipulangin kampung sunrise di tanggal 26 Desember kemaren. Tp krn kehebatan mak gw yg decided to bongkar gudang di musim liburan ini....bokap dgn niat baek suruh gw netep di rumah dede gw ajah di Permata Buana.
Honestly rumah dede gw mah ....kayak resort bintang 10...banding rumah my mom. Dikarenakan kehebatan mom yg suka bener numpuk "harta" (rongsokan)...jadilah rumah gw makin hari makin sumpek !! Yah puji Tuhan gw ga tinggal lama di sini. Kl iyah mah udah kosong itu gudang gw loakin semua and ... my mom probably will be having heart attack with my action !
So yah.... rencana awal...gw ditelantarkan di rumah dd gw sampe gw pulang besok ke SG !! Dari pertama gw bete when I heard that, sampe gw terima the decision and get myself to the idea that I'll be at this beautiful home till I go back to Singapore, sampe akhirnya gw pun finally change my mind en decided to balik lagi ke rumah sendiri begitu chance arrive !!
Yup...rumah dede gw seh fantastic !! Rapih bersih baru nicely decorated, much food and the latest added Kinect games, kosong melompong luas buat gw jejogetan and nonton felem sampe pagi !! But it's not my home.... it's her home!!
So gitu gw pulang sampe rumah, rongsokan pun menyambut gw dengan karaokenya yang very high decibel !! I don't love them...but every single corner of this place is my home !! My home !! Dalam segala kebobrokannya, kegelapannya, keramean gang-nya taman ratu, and sempit berantakannya...this is the place where I grow up...and tidur makan selonjor joget2 karaoke ngakak nangis kentut boker seenak jidat :)
I love my sister's home...but my Mom and Dad are not there!! Some more gw jg ga enak lah gangguin dede gw and her hubby terus. Felt like their life have to stop because I'm there...and I don't want that to happen. Gw sendiri udah berasa so helpless waktu di rumah dede gw en kita ga ada transport keluar....felt like I've lost my independence and control...and I'm freaking out..
In the end.....Home is where the people you love gathers !! And now I'm happy to be back home..... di tengah my super humble (sumpek) home :) (kedengeran my mom voice : Jiee mo pepaya ga ??? Maoooooo *happy pepaya girl *)
I know Gillian Sastra yg seneng bener pulang indo (as written in her blog) will agree with me.hoho
I'm reminded too....that no matter how great our "temporary resort" we have in this world..... our home is in heaven !! We need to remind our self to go home to the right home :) Because home is where our loved one gathers ! Heaven...that is :)
#newyear2013catchphrase
It's new year tomorrow. Biasanya kl new year banyak orang yg demen bikin resolution. Didn't know why, gw ga sempet bikin serious resolution di taon 2012. And ini bukan taon petama I miss making such :P HAHAHAH:) Believe it or not, in those year where I didn't have any resolution..... I really achieve much less than those year where I made them
So...di sisa waktu yg terakhir ini..gw akan menyusun resolution yg rapih, realistis....dan biarlah resolution ini penuh urapan:) ahhaha :)
Sambil meng-quote 3 catch phrase from 3 random friends yg gw quote dari twitter fb atau dunia elektronik laennya (lupa dari mana euy)
Somewhere in Da Chan's blog/ twitter :
“Most people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in ten years.”-- Bill Gates
From Lily Ratnawati's FB: When you stop chasing the wrong thing, you give the right thing a chance to catch you.
* even though lagi agak alergi sama kata catch gara2 nonton running men... hahahahahahha ... I still love this phrases*
From Elliot's thumb:
"I'm bad and that's good. I will never be good and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me" Wreck it Ralph
These catchphrases will be my engine to start 2013.
Are you ready world of 2013 ? Here we come !!

Dari pertama gw bete when I heard that, sampe gw terima the decision and get myself to the idea that I'll be at this beautiful home till I go back to Singapore, sampe akhirnya gw pun finally change my mind en decided to balik lagi ke rumah sendiri begitu chance arrive !!
Yup...rumah dede gw seh fantastic !! Rapih bersih baru nicely decorated, much food and the latest added Kinect games, kosong melompong luas buat gw jejogetan and nonton felem sampe pagi !! But it's not my home.... it's her home!!
So gitu gw pulang sampe rumah, rongsokan pun menyambut gw dengan karaokenya yang very high decibel !! I don't love them...but every single corner of this place is my home !! My home !! Dalam segala kebobrokannya, kegelapannya, keramean gang-nya taman ratu, and sempit berantakannya...this is the place where I grow up...and tidur makan selonjor joget2 karaoke ngakak nangis kentut boker seenak jidat :)
I love my sister's home...but my Mom and Dad are not there!! Some more gw jg ga enak lah gangguin dede gw and her hubby terus. Felt like their life have to stop because I'm there...and I don't want that to happen. Gw sendiri udah berasa so helpless waktu di rumah dede gw en kita ga ada transport keluar....felt like I've lost my independence and control...and I'm freaking out..
In the end.....Home is where the people you love gathers !! And now I'm happy to be back home..... di tengah my super humble (sumpek) home :) (kedengeran my mom voice : Jiee mo pepaya ga ??? Maoooooo *happy pepaya girl *)
I know Gillian Sastra yg seneng bener pulang indo (as written in her blog) will agree with me.hoho
I'm reminded too....that no matter how great our "temporary resort" we have in this world..... our home is in heaven !! We need to remind our self to go home to the right home :) Because home is where our loved one gathers ! Heaven...that is :)
#newyear2013catchphrase
It's new year tomorrow. Biasanya kl new year banyak orang yg demen bikin resolution. Didn't know why, gw ga sempet bikin serious resolution di taon 2012. And ini bukan taon petama I miss making such :P HAHAHAH:) Believe it or not, in those year where I didn't have any resolution..... I really achieve much less than those year where I made them
So...di sisa waktu yg terakhir ini..gw akan menyusun resolution yg rapih, realistis....dan biarlah resolution ini penuh urapan:) ahhaha :)
Sambil meng-quote 3 catch phrase from 3 random friends yg gw quote dari twitter fb atau dunia elektronik laennya (lupa dari mana euy)
Somewhere in Da Chan's blog/ twitter :
“Most people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in ten years.”-- Bill Gates
From Lily Ratnawati's FB: When you stop chasing the wrong thing, you give the right thing a chance to catch you.
* even though lagi agak alergi sama kata catch gara2 nonton running men... hahahahahahha ... I still love this phrases*
From Elliot's thumb:
"I'm bad and that's good. I will never be good and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me" Wreck it Ralph
These catchphrases will be my engine to start 2013.
Are you ready world of 2013 ? Here we come !!

#sharing #OCD #holiday #sick
Hashtags is in... Right ?
So mari kita bahas per hastags
#holiday
gw baru aja balik dari 2 minggu holiday dengan rute sebagai berikut :
3 - 8 Nov JKT
9 Nov SG
10 - 14 Nov HK
15- 16 Nov SG
17- 18 Nov Malacca
dan mendarat balik di SG 18 Nov...back to work today, and feeling so lost sampe2 gw sempet mimpi kl boss gw suruh gw cari kerjaan baru coz bakalan ada orang baru yg bakalan jadi atasan kita, and coz of that gw ga bisa dipromosiin :P so must as well cari kerjaan baru kata boss gw dalem mimpi
that aside, gw udah jalan2 for the last 2 weeks and it has been a very good round about Asia holiday....except for the fact that.....
*masuk ke 2nd hashtags
#sick
gitu gw balik Indo tgl Nov 3, gw udah officially : sakit.
Jadi pas gw balik Indo, gw dapet....as seen in my previous posting bleeding. So kl udah dapet, cewek teh lemah.....lengkap sama capeknya gw after balik dari London en kejar office work and preparing buat the next round about trip....teparlah gw di Indo..
Biar kata foto instagram makanan indah semua, gw lost weight di Indo coz gw ga ngemil. Batuk parah, sampe tadinya mo ketemu Bayu jadi ga jadi juga...batuknya udah kayak kereta api. Parahnya lagi di Indo gw ga bisa belik obat gw yg ala Singapore so jadinya gw ga sembuh2. Tolak angin abisssh bisssh bissh ...sampe harus stock tolak angin yg baru.
gw udah kuatir aja gw ga bakal baek sampe di SG en lanjut HK....en betul sekali....walaupun puji Tuhan gw ga makin parah padahal super kurang tidur banget (jam 5 pagi gw dah sampe di Airport, on the day when we're flying to HK) plus all the nice food yg kita makan di hongkong itu definitely not throat friendly
and by the time gw selesai dari rolling around .... gw udah cukup recover dari sakit gw.....
tetep...kapok kl travel tapi sakit ah...
#sharing
as we all know, well gw udah live independently alone for the past 12.5 years. Basically since gw move to Singapore lah yah... and I took that independence further and further.
Sama lah dulu gw layaknya ABG taon 2K (gila berasa nenek2 bgt dah gw), pertama kali gw masuk NUS ...gw ga bakal kebayang gw sanggup nonton sendirian di Bioskop, boro2 mikirin bisa travel around out from SG alone....pelan2 gw makin more daring and so the story goes
Dan kesimpulannya adalah, karena gw sering ngelakuin apa2 sendiri, basically gw jarang sharing things. Esp : sharing makanan....and that is what so refreshing about this trip....becoz for this trip, me & my troop ALWAYS share food, with a side note. That side note being : me getting my own cutleries set and got the food / drink last as I'm coughing badly :P heheheh :P
and...must I say : I LOVE SHARING...esp food. Kenapa ? Karena jujur...there are MANY times dimana gw ga sanggup abisin one set of food, en gw terpaksa harus tetep makan soalnya udah bayar satu set....
Sharing....esp food...is just such joy. Terutama karena my troops jg makan sebanyak gw saja....if not slightly lesser.....so kita ga over eat, and kita ga under eat. Yg mereka ga bisa abisin, gw yg makan buat kenyangin gw :P And that makes this trip is very memorable for me coz beneran takeran sharing gw, my cousin Kaoru & Margie and my sis.... is just nice !! Perfect !! And by sharing, we always manage to taste more variety of food than eating alone.....also : size food gw jadi pas...setengah2 instead of full plate.....jadi gw ga makin gendut kl geto :)
Dan dari situlah gw jadi ngerti kenapa Gill selalu harus janjian dulu sama Raimond kl ngomongin makanan (biar bisa nyolong makanan partner :P heheheeh biar bisa sharing lah..... aw so cute.... hp anniversary btw)
And I really hope gw bakal be surrounded by more ppl yg willing to share and sepikir en sehati sm perut gw :) haha
#OCD
and from this trip, we the cousins discover that we also share one same addition : OCD. Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Jadi kita cukup cleanliness freak...so kita make sure sepatu ga lewat dari certain line in the room. Then gw lanjut with wiping the floor with wet wipes in the evening. And all 4 of us, once we reach our room, park shoes, kita langsung cuci kaki en cuci tangan before going in to the room further. Then we use hotel slippers to move around the room.
Also, our normal daily routines remain : anything that has been used to go out of the Hotel room is not to be placed on the bed. So kl kita baru balik dari luar while nunggu bathing time, no one is to sit or touch the bed at all. Capek ? Sit on the floor !! I say this daily normal coz we practice this even in SG. Tiap kali pulang rumah, gw cuman slipin tas gw di kamar without even stepping into the room. Cuci kali dulu di kamar mandi, baru boleh masuk kamar. Same, nothing is to touch our bed, until we bathe.
haha :P en we were so happy to finally find girls/ people who understand this cleanliness level, only to find out that it's actually running around in our own family line all along :P HAHAHA :P en kita baru discover when we travel together
Then this OCD continue waktu kita ke Malacca. Tiap kali liat piring, sendok, garpu, kita wipe dulu sama tissue sampe bersih. Then tiap kali reach meja, first thing we do: take wet wipes and wipe wipe wipe all da way :P sampe2 Wing Kit, margie's hubby....was shocked when we have our first lunch. Sekali kita duduk, the next thing he saw is all 4 of us ambil tissue and lap lap lappppppp aja semua meja, piring ...en dia cuman duduk, shock, and stone...
and Margaret was so happy that Wing Kit got enlightened : this freakness run in the family....his wife is not the only freak around... haha
As for me : my signature cleanliness behavior, is whenever gw mo travel. What do you do before go travel ? Gw : gw make sure gw udah laundry semua baju en udah gw gantung di kamar, all setrikaan cleaned, and one day before I fly anywhere : gw harus make sure kl kamar gw di sapu & pel right before I fly off, so when I come back, ga bakal kotor2 banget en gw bisa do light cleaning pake wet wipes. Coz biasanya abis balik travel pasti capek....so i make sure i don't do anything extra...
That's exactly what I do before I went london kemaren. Pesawat gw jam 1 AM. Gw nyapu ngepel en do last round clean up from 9- 10 PM. Jam 10 gw istirahat bentar, en 10.15 baru mandi en siap2 ke airport :P and it's the same for all other trips...
and this ..... is the reason why gw suka kecapean before travel coz... on top of packing, I also got to do cleaning and laundrying....and the same goes when I touched down back in SG...
so for that gw conclude, much as I want to go for biz trip around the world, I don't think I can last...
or tepatnya....gw super jarang bolos ngepel kamar gw seminggu sekali (whenever I'm in SG) for the past 12.5 years gw di SG... it's less than itungan satu tangan alias 5 jari... karena gw bakalan so freak out kl kmr gw belon di pel / sapu seminggu sekali...jadi bete, mo marah, and felt like life is so not balanced :P
r u guys like that ? *Calling OCD friend out there
sekian.....laporan 4 hashtaghs saya malam ini
sorry for the jumping random topics
5 weeks to Xmas peeps !! JIA YOU !!

London III end.
Kl Allah Bapa adalah Allah Tritunggal
Pernikahan yg baik adalah pernikahan yg melibatkan suami, istri dan Roh Kudus (bukan mertua)
Dan kalo KeTuhanan adalah yg maha Esa (ga nyambung Jek)
Dan SMP en SMA hanya dihabiskan tiap 3 tahun saja.....
Dan Lord of the rings, Spiderman, Batman, all played in Trilogy
Dan Lord of the rings, Spiderman, Batman, all played in Trilogy
Maka posting soal London akan di akhiri di London III (epiloguenya panjang bener)
Becoz 3 is a good number....karena itu semboyan yg bener di Singapore seharusnya adalah "3 anak cukup, dan sangat baik"
heheheehheeh :)
Anyway : London last part (karena gw ngejar pesawat balik ke SG soon)
Day 6
Rabu October 17' 2012
Hari dimana gw accomplish more than my target jalan2 hari itu (sehingga ada waktu extra di hari lain but shopping lagi... HAHHAHAHAH)
Today's menu : Trafalgar square, buckingham palace, ST. James Park, Big Ben, Parliament house, Westminster Abbey, jalan balik through westminster bridge to London eye, done everything by 6 PM way earlier than what I thought so I surprisingly can go to Tower Bridge and Tower of London which is suppose to be Day 7 itinerary.
Yah karena hari ini jalan2 doang mah, gw kasih foto aja yah :) Nothing much to say except : soaking in the beauty of bright sunny day in a wintery cold london with a wonderful view and a very peaceful heart.
Gw pulang early on this day, coz in the evening, it was raining heavily. Which is good, so I rest early and enjoy time di Hotel (super holiday lazying mode)
Oh ini : King's cross station, tempat filming Harry Potter :)
So now Day 7 : St Paul, Borough market and then shopping began :)
Yah hari ini gw masuk ke St Paul cathedral, which is famous buat tempat marriednya Prince Charles and Lady Di. Pertamanya gw pikir gw ga mo bayar masuk sampe dalem ah soalnya kemarennya gw masuk ke westminster abbey, en udah bayar GBP 16.00 pound buat masuk, liat2 en dapet phone guide gitu.
Yah hari ini gw masuk ke St Paul cathedral, which is famous buat tempat marriednya Prince Charles and Lady Di. Pertamanya gw pikir gw ga mo bayar masuk sampe dalem ah soalnya kemarennya gw masuk ke westminster abbey, en udah bayar GBP 16.00 pound buat masuk, liat2 en dapet phone guide gitu.
Nah : Westminster Abbey itu tempat weddingnya yah sapa lagi kl bukan Prince Will and Kate, yg rame2 kita tontonini di hari ulang taon David Chandra yg ke sa-chap (dan gw bolos rayain ulang taon David demi nonton kawinan ini) Nah kesan waktu nonton kawinan Will and Kate itu kayak Abbeynya panjangggggg bener. Pas datengin, lah udah cuman segini ? Kok di TV puanjang bener ? ashtaga :P
Terus, kesan dari Westminster Abbey is : so dark !! En serem euy, gw ga ngerti gimana caranya suruh ibadah disana with banyak nyak nyak bener kuburan kelilingin ruangan ibadah. Saking banyaknya sampe katanya Abbey udah ga bisa dipake buat gali kuburan di bawah lagi (kl bodynya ditaroh di atas tanah en dibikin batu nisan yg cakep2 bener gitu rata2 yg nobleman : Kings, Queens, Lords), karena udah penuh bodynya di bawah, jadi ga bisa gali :P weuw.... sereemmm gw. Ada tuh 100 - 200 body orang terkenal disana ...
So coming from there, gw mikir gw ga mo masuk en bayar St Paul deh ah. Eh tapi giliran udah sampe halaman depan, ngintip ngintip, tertarik jg gw masuk en bayar GBP 15.00 (murah 2 dollar SGD). Dan ternyata : St Paul jauuhhh uhhhh uhhhh lebih gede en lebih megah banding Abbey. Lebih wuah gitu !! Lebarrrr and puanjannggggg bener (pantasan Charles & Diana married disana). plus kuburannya semua di lantai basement :) ahhahah :) Jadi ga serem :) ahhahhaha :)
Terus pas di St Paul, kita bisa naek ke dome nya (kubahnya) yg rata2 ada total 560 ++ tangganya ke atas. Gw berenti di stop an ke dua : 389 anak tangga, kecapean, keringetan, en diketawain sama anak2 yg lagi study tour dari German kayaknya :) Some of them join me rest half way, bilang I company you. I'm tired too. Well thank you gw jawab. HAHHAHAH :)
Gw ga lanjut sampe paling atas pada dasarnya karena : ga sanggup en... seremh banget euy !! Itu gedung dari taon 1400an en gelap gitu :P mana tangganya sempit en kecil, mesti nunduk euy... kayak felem2 horror day !!! En gw liat udah ga ada manusia yg mo lanjut ke lantai paling atas itu :P HAHHAHHAH :p masa gw sendiri ? Ga mikir 3 kali... turun grak !!
So abis gw jalanin si St. Paul, lanjutlah gw to my next destination : Borough's market !! Ternyata ini market yg gw SUKA BANGET !! Coz what's inside is aaaaalllllll food :) aaaaarrrrgggghhhh..... I should have discovered this place from day 1. Gw ga pergi si borough ini dari awal2 soalnya on weekdays dia tutupnya cepet. Aih, this is the paradise of food I should have discovered earlier. So setelah beli hot dog, I make a promise that I will be back on Saturday before I fly back to SG ....ehuaheua :) karena gw mo makan English Pie and Paella :)
Finish Borough : gw lanjut with kejarin shopping list. Today's to do : oleh2 mode. Jadi gw lari ke Harrods, ke V&A, lalu ke Primark lagi :) heheheeh
Malemnya I finally manage to meet Boss Tanjaya Tan lah, mamanya, dedenya, en Lily. We had dinner at Gourmet Burger Kitchen.
Day 8 Friday : October 19' 12
Benernya this is shopping day. Tapi karena gw belon ke covent garden, gw sempetin ke Covent garden dulu. The name of Covent Garden is what made me decide to go London. Waktu Lily type the name Covent Garden, my heart melts langsung : let's go !!! ahhaha :)
And bener ajah. Sampe sana, it is not a garden, it's a shopping mall yg open space kayak Bugis junction geto. Ada street performer yg juggle gergaji listrik yg bikin gw merem ga mo liat. Then as usual banyak yg jualan antics.
But the best (and the craziest part) of this covent Garden is, ada satu group kwartet (Violin, Cello, Bass, en....apa yah ? mending tanya Jojo...harusnya 2 violin seh) 3 cowok and satu cewek. Mereka perform di one corner, and mostly are songs yg popular classics jd bukan yg susah deep2 classic geto. Mereka perform four seasons Vivaldi (bener ga Jo?) geto kl ga salah... en other songs as well... The good thing about them is, mereka perform sambil joget2 Irish gitu. So they are basically jumping around, gw kayak liat kurcaci2 and fairys2 dari negri dongeng nongol.
And I just spend 20 minutes looking and listening to them, soaking in the weather, the warmth, the english charm, and thanking God for a VERY GOOD RESTING period I've got from this holiday. Off course kasih duit jg. Ahhh, it just soothes my heart. The craziest part, is this. Ada satu waktu, 2 anak cewek kecil cute2 datengin mereka, mo ngasih duit. Mereka langsung berlutut dong di depan anak kecil itu. Terus gitu anak kecil itu balik ke mama dia orang, mereka ber 3 kejar anak kecilnya and they kneeled again and play in front of the children and the mom.
Percaya ga ? Gw nangis !!! Ah...gila, berasa bego di tengah Covent Garden liat Kwartet performance alone, nangis !!!
I cried : coz my heart says : Happiness, is this !! Happiness, is being able to breathe in the air, each moment we're alive, to experience one good warm Friday afternoon in Covent Garden, and be awed by small little kindness, naiveness, beautiful sceneries around. I'm happy ! And I cried because it doesn't take much to make me happy:) Just this, and I ... am ...truly ... happy (nah ini dah mo nangis lagi dunk)
Jujur : seumur umur gw travel ke US yg my dream land, I didn't get to cry the way I did in UK. Gw ga tau kesambet apa hari itu.... but that day make me think :
Selama ini kl ada temen pergi ke Europe, atau kl gw sendiri mo pergi kemana gitu, to my closest friends gw bakal nanya "do you want anything ?" Kl yg nanya closest friends yah, gw ga berasa itu beban buat find the stuffs and buy for them. Sometimes, gw malah feel cukup sedih kl mereka ga nitip. Contoh yg paling ga suka nitip is : Miss Gillian Sastra :P ahhaah :) Dia selalu, ga usah lah Bomb gapapa. Padahal gw tau dia suka banget Cath Kidston. El juga ga mo nitip apa2.
Gw so far nitip cuman ke Lydia sista waktu dia honeymoon ke Europe. Ampir nitip Shandy kemaren itu, tapi mikir resehnya, susahnya, ah kasian dah ga usah...
But from this trip, I learn to know the feeling of going there and buy it ourselves, which come with the experience of living in the land and breathe the air, eat their food, which seriously comes to nothing else, bahkan sampe kejadian sepet2 gw sama orang london pun, it's experience. Because there are still good people who smile at me, offer me to take pictures, offer the show me the road. The memory, is irreplaceable. Apapun yg kita beli pun jadi much more precious geto. Dan gw jadi ngerti napa Gill kl jalan2 ga belanja2, tp experience the land and the beauty. Which, mo di paparkan pake sejuta kata di blog pun, ga bisa dibandingin with the real experience :)
Dan karena itu udah hari Jumat, yg gw tutup dengan shopping lagi di Primark, kali ini gw udah punya strategi bener buat belanja di Primark (yg akan gw ceritakan laen kali).. dan Sabtunya gw jalan2 setengah hari sama Lily ke Borough market (makan Paella and English Pie), terus jalan2 ke Oxford Street, Fortnum and Mason en balik ke Covent Garden lagi before finally setting off to fly back .....
maka dari itu, postingan London gw jg kelar. Foto2 lengkap bisa diliat di Facebook :) Comment gw jg di facebook.
Terima kasih atas kesediaan sodara2 sekalian to bear with me with my London TRILOGY ;) next destination : Hongkong starting from 5 AM tmrw morning :P urrrgghhhh
footnote : catetan kaki
Gw ga tau napa, tiap malem di London gw kerjanya cuci underwear terus2. Sampe2 gw beli deterjen di London demi cuci2 :P AHHAHA :) padahal gw ga keabisan underwear.
Terus jg, Tune Hotel itu ruangannya emang ga gede2 banget. Tp in half an hour gw sampe, udah gw sulap ruangannya, sampe gw pindahin mejanya, biar jadi sesuai hati gw :P Jadi berasa kayak kamar sendiri geto :P HAHAHAH :)
Done :)
London : I WILL BE BACK and paint the town Red !!
This time around, I'm ready with your rudeness though :) hahaha
