Spill of tears: Karma

Back to 2009, i started to listened to a new genre of music. Korean pop, best known as K-pop. At that time, not many idol groups debuted. Not as much as now. Super Junior suddenly came with “Sorry sorry”. The do-do-do song (DO DO DO note until the whole chorus) surely attract me. The youngest member Kyuhyun shining the most. But it doesn’t last too long. I am back to my western music taste and K-pop was like “Okay, i know them but not a fan of them”

2011, Same thing happened like 3 years ago. I laid in my bed, bored, keep switching TV channel and then my eyes are looking straight to those 5 boys. They look so young, typical koreans.  Their song is different from the other K-Pop song. It was “Replay”. It has some kind of RnB feel, The dance moves is just DOPE and the music is so catchy. They’re just different. When the song ends, i read the description and a word “SHINee” was written there. My brain is like rolling something “ SHINee, SHINee, SHINee.. ah, Minho! And Lucifer! The pretty guy in red pants!” Which later on i finally knew that his name is Taemin.

I knew SHINee at the time i still a fan of Super Junior, yeah.. since they came from same company. At that time, SHINee was just a rookie group. I first saw them with “Juliette” but i didn’t really notice the other member. Only Minho because he’s good looking and often came as a guest on variety shows. Onew, i heard his name a lot , yet  didn’t really know what he looks like. But neither Onew nor Minho, i was captured by that guy with thick eyebrows. He looks like a little kitty, so cute! His name is Key. He chooses the stage name Key because his real name is same as his sunbae “Super junior’s Kim Kibum”. Later on i also new that the fans gave him nickname “Kitty”. Yeah, he looks exactly like a little kitty!


This is my very first time being madly in love with Korean boyband. Maybe it was all karma. I used to talk a lot behind one of my friends who dedicated her life for Korea and K-Pop. Her acts kinda annoying and that’s the truth. I didn’t want to listen to K-Pop because she likes it and yeah.. i said to myself that i will never ever getting back together listen to any kind of K-Pop songs. KARMA!!

I become more and more obsessed with K-Pop. I started to know many groups, you name it i know it. My playlist used to be all kill western songs, but right now it turns to home of K-pop songs. I started to build my dreams. I learn Korean a lot, K-pop songs, K-pop dance even joining so many contests just to meet them. You can say that right now i dedicated my life to Korea.

Maybe it sounds exaggerated, but this is the reality and this is my life now. I always say that i can do all the things i wanted, but not all the time i feel like it. I'm just running from the truth and i admit it. Sometimes i feel broken and i just want to stop. Having a feel like this, do you think i like it? No. But i just can't stop. I didn't blame my idols of course, because i just try to take the positives from them like how they work hard to reach their dream. I want to be like that too! But in the end, i just feel pity for myself. I'm weird.

Friends? haha.. they just make fun of me..
not all of them i know, but i don't think telling something to them works for me..

Family? they don't even care..

Even myself? I was just like a turtle who lose its shell.

My dreams, i've built it high enough but could it be higher or maybe crashed away.
I never know..

To be continued..

Moving In.

This past couple months had been really hectic. I just moved into a new rented house and i'm not living in my boarding house any longer. There are many things to pack, many things to throw at garbage. As it goes, when i packed some old stuffs it kinda bring back some old memories which give happy and sad feel at the same time..

There are some memories that i want to keep. Some things make me smile just by seeing them. I just re-arranged my file holder when i found my old drawing. It was reallybad. LOL. Then i found another drawings, my design. Yes, i used to have a dream as a fashion designer. I draw a lot but it was bad. It was really bad.

I found my test and exam paper when i was in Junior High. Looking at those marks now seems like it was so easy to achieve. Nowadays everything just getting harder in college *for sure*

Sweet Seventeen Invitation. Since i kept all of them because most of them are really nice, while re-arranging i kinda miss the atmosphere of it. The games, polonaise, photobooth, dinner, dresscode, suprises, doorprize, disco time. Too bad, i'm getting older now.. Hahaha.

But i can't keep everything forever. There are a lot of things i need to throw. Those memories. It's the same like in this live, you only want to keep the good ones and leave the bad ones unless you want to keep the garbage.

My room is like a mess now. Sometimes i get slightly mad at my Mom, she's the one who ask me to keep my room neat yet she put a lot of stuffs in my room. Mom please let my room at least only filled with my stuffs, not anyone's stuffs! It's irritating. I also want a clean and neat room though..

When you move, there must be something to erase, to leave. Like in this reality, when you try to move on, there must be something to erase, something to leave..

Bucket full of dreams.

I have a bucket full of dreams..

I dream to dance "Replay" together with SHINee..
The song that makes me fell for them.
But this is just ridiculous and no one would believe in me.
"You fool, they're just another human being"
I put a lot of effort to get that chance, but i gain nothing.

I dream to sing a duet with David Archuleta, any kind of songs he wants..
Because of him i know what is my passion, Singing.
I want to sing like everyday.
I want to sing even if i can't sing anymore.

I dream to have my own stage..
But once again i laughed, because i'm lack of confidence.
And i just become a clown for some of them,
because of its absurdity.

I dream to show the world
That there's nothing wrong to have a dream
That there's nothing wrong to cry and act like a fool
Just because you want it so bad
Just because you want this short life become meaningful.

I dream to have my parents hug me tight and say "You make me proud"
Because i didn't know how far i made them worry
Because i feel useless as the only duaghter

I dream to make it all come true..
Though i don't know when, how, and what is my destiny
Though i don't know how much did i supposed to put my efforts into it
Though i don't know until when i have to keep my faith
Though i don't know how to keep my jealousy over them
Though i don't know how to achieve..

I do keep my faith,
It is just "How long do i have to wait?"
I do believe that everything is possible for me,
because God is good. He is.

They say when you say you can't then you really can't.
But when you believe you can, then you can.

I have a bucket full of dreams..
I'll rise it up high and won't wake up before it's over.

Merry Late Christmas and Stuffs.

First of all, Merry Christmas for all the people in the universe. It must be heartwarming watching all those red-green stuffs everywhere with big-fat-white beard man wearing red suit, Santa Claus. Do you have a great one?

I was excited about this Christmas. The same feeling every year. I was wondering if Santa come in the midnight, creeping into my living room to put some gift under the Christmas tree. HELLO PEOPLE! THIS IS MY FIRST TIME, AFTER 8 YEARS CELEBRATING CHRISTMAS WITHOUT CHRISTMAS TREE! I know i'm almost 19 years old, yet i still believe those stuffs. 

Anyway, there's nothing special happen this Christmas. I actually felt quite guilty since *I ADMIT IT GOD, I'M SO SORRY* I didn't go to church for almost a month? more? I didn't join the 4 weeks of advents, and i just came right away on Christmas Mass. Such a sinner..


Maybe i lost the meaning of Christmas. It didn't happen to be the time where we supposed to gather around with our family. Both my parents are off to work, well they have no day-offs. Me? i spent this Christmas by watching Running Man. In my room. Alone. Like a lonely kitty watching the gleams of Christmas light outside, inside i'm quite empty.. Miaow!


But it's good then if you had a great Christmas back then!

***

28th December! *drum rolls*

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THIS GUY BELOW!


It's been 4 years. LIKE WOW. How do you do? I do miss your blog and your vlog. Your goofy-ness and dorky-ness? You still the same guy who captured my heart just by listening to your voice. I never forget the day you sang "Stand by Me" and "Love Me Tender" on American Idol Top 4 performance, and i just melted right away.

I also can't forget every competition i took just to win you autographed photo, books, or any kind of stuffs about you. The most unforgettable one was the day you finally came to Indonesia and i was spending my time home crying since i let my chance gone away to see you. If i were there back to that day, maybe i've already took a picture with you, telling you how much you meant to me, show my support to you, AND I BUY EVERY SINGLE ALBUM YOU LAUNCHED. ALL ORIGINAL! You have to know that this is my very first time collecting such a huge number of album from the same singer.

Yet i won't regret it, because i know i have a better chance to meet you soon enough. Soon enough after you're back. 2014? I'll wait. Whenever it is, as long as i could meet you. As long as i could tell you that i've never ever been such a fan like this before and as long as you know how you are means a lot to my dreams and hopes.

Happy birthday David, I can't say much but i love you!

Still 29th December..

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY SUPER DUPER MEGA KPOP BESTIES "STEFANA KARENILA" and her twin Stefani Karenita! Stay awesome and fantastic baby!


Let's go to Seoul together soon enough! Let's finish our ASP Project! Let's watch KPOP concert live soon enough! Let's meet our bias (You go to TOP and BigBang, I go to Key and SHINee) 
우리 둘이 같이 가자! 서울!! 우릴 위해 기다려주세요 :D

12:04 AM here, but i'm still awake since one more assignment awaits. 


Tadaaa!! (The airplane below can move across the countries. LOL)

Some says that soon this will crashed into a junk, our frontline only mark the artwork and they would say "Imagine if your dream CRASH like this," while they crashing our artwork. No, i won't let it happen to mine uh oh big NO NO!!

Make our parents proud is everyone's dream, either do i. Beside that i also really want to visit Korea and USA, meet the idols (SHINee, David Archuleta, Lee HyunWoo) and of course, who doesn't like to fly around the countries? Well, it might just hanging in my head as a dream now but i try to believe that sooner or later it'll all come true because life is a miracle and you don't know what you'll gonna get! What about your dreams? :)

MIMPI

Jesus looked at them and said, With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with #Mark 10:27
Mimpi. Dimulai dari kata itu aku jadi pingin nulis lagi. Akhirnya berhasil juga kembali ke sini sesudah tidur panjang dan pencarian topik menarik tapi tak kunjung kutemukan. Mimpi memang ngasih inspirasi, tapi juga nyeret-nyeret perasaan saya jadi galau begini. *muter lagu-lagu SHINee terus nangis. hiks hiks #alay*

Yah okelah, mana ada di dunia ini orang yang nggak pernah punya mimpi, harapan, cita-cita? Nggak mungkin ada! Sekalipun orang yang udah bosen idup juga tetep nggak mungkin. Masalahnya apa mimpi itu salah?

Mungkin iya, tapi tidak.

Akhir-akhir ini emang gara-gara memikirkan masalah perkuliahan yang bikin hidup kelas 12 ini makin pusing dan runyam, aku jadi banyak menghayal, mimpi. Mungkin emang pikiranku mulai "diajak" lebih terbuka buat mikir, mau jadi apa aku nanti? gimana cari tambahan biaya buat ngeringanin beban ortu *secara guweh udah merasa cukup umur untuk bisa bantu-bantu*? apa harapan-harapanku bisa tercapai? apa AKU BISA BIKIN ORANG TUAKU BAHAGIA dengan pilihanku? atau aku mungkin salah pilih?

Dream is beautiful and easy to see yet so hard to reach. #Me.
Aku punya banyak mimpi! Aku pingin bisa nabung banyak, yang untuk sekarang emang sulit bisa terealisasikan karena entah mengapa selalu ada pengeluaran meskipun sudah HAMPIR setiap hari saya berhemat. Sebisa mungkin nggak jajan di sekolah, biarpun tiap hari dikasih Mama uang jajan. 
Aku pingin bisa keliling dunia! Aku pingin bisa ketemu Archie dan SHINee, yang aku bilang ke semua orang, kalo aku nggak bakal mau mati dulu sebelum ketemu mereka. Hahaha.
Aku pingin bisa sukses dan bisa bantu orang tua! Anak baek mana hayo yang nggak pingin kayak gini juga? Ingin ini ingin itu banyak sekali♫ #nyanyithemesongdoraemon. Hahaha.

Tapi pada intinya dari semua mimpi-mimpi itu, aku terlalu gampang putus asa buat mewujudkan semuanya. Mungkin aku punya ide, tapi aku nggak tau cara mewujudkannya. Aku lebih sering ngeratap daripada usaha, nggak tau gimana caranya buat bangkit, nggak tau harus mulai dari mana. Kadang, aku cuma bisa nangis *yang menurut semua orang-orang wasting time, tapi always make me feel better* mengasihani diri saya sendiri. Menyedihkan bukan? Ya, menyedihkan! Nggak jarang aku mikir, kenapa kok kayak gini? kenapa aku nggak bisa? kenapa aku beda?

Meski gitu, masih ada secuil keyakinan sih di dalem diriku. Aku yakin kalo semua mimpi itu bisa terwujud. Akhir-akhir ini juga saya mulai menambah semangat dan motivasi saya dari baca-baca cerita-cerita inspiratif. Beberapa bilang kalo hidup kita ini semua juga berasal dari mimpi, jadi aku masih ada sedikit keyakinan kalo semua ini bisa jadi kenyataan. Aku juga pernah ngalami beberapa kali, kalo boleh jujur. Hmm.. itu kayak Tuhan bener-bener jawab permohonan kamu, tanpa sadar bahwa kamu sudah melakukan usaha terbaik dan Tuhan ngeliat itu semua. Yah.. sampai detik jari-jari saya nyentuh keyboard ini saya masih meyakinkan diri kalo emang semua mimpi itu MUNGKIN. That's why aku ngutip quote inspiratif *Ehm. Jadi alim* dari injil Markus diatas.

Yah posting ini sekedar sharing aja sih, when i write everything feels better. Feel free to leave comment atau sekedar support apalah. Saya merasa masih butuh banyak keyakinan lebih buat bisa lebih optimis *sigh*

Terimakasih yang sudah baca. Kisah galau lain saya sepertinya akan berlanjut di post berikutnya. Haha :D

'End' of the journey (?)

Yak yak yak, saya pending dulu kisah menyedihkan saya tentang kang David yang seharusnya saya tulis beberapa hari lalu, yang terbengkalai gara-gara kesibukan saya di DBL *belagak artis*. Hahaha.

* * *

The competition hasn't finished yet, tapi untuk Clique, mungkin taon ini belum punya kami. Jujur, kalo boleh bilang, big 5 sama sekali bukan sesuatu yang bisa dibanggakan *well, manusia nggak pernah puas!* meskipun mestinya itu adalah suatu hal yang sangat patut dibanggakan, soalnya jadi 5 besar dari ratusan sekolah itu SANGAT NGGAK GAMPANG.

Kecewa? Oh ya pasti! Tapi bukan kecewa karena nggak lolos ke best 3. Okelah, sedikit. Tapi lebih-lebih gara-gara ngerasa menghancurkan mimpi banyak orang. Terlalu banyak yang terlibat dan ekspektasi udah bener-bener tinggi. Terutama dengan si abang, yang paling banyak *dan terlalu banyak* berkorban. Devastated. Bener-bener kacau waktu kemaren nggak bisa ngapa-ngapain waktu semua down. Yeah, i'm down too. Bener-bener minta maaf , Chem buat semuanya. Maybe sorry is never enough :(

Anyway, nahan emosi dan ngempet sesuatu itu terbukti sangat tidak baik bagi pikiran, jiwa dan raga. Sewaktu tengah pertandingan final cowok kemaren, dan tau kami gak lolos, saya berusaha sabar sementara yang lain mulai nangis. Entah kenapa rasanya terlalu berat buat nangis sementara kemenangan tim cowok udah di depan mata. Yang disesali, saya ngerasa bikin banyak orang kecewa. Waktu perform big 5 kemarin, kain box saya gak kebuka dengan sempurna dan kain selendang saya juga lepas-lepas, that makes me even worse. Selain itu juga malu! 2500 orang lebih menyaksikan itu dan gagal gitu aja. What a shame. Ini taon pertama dan terakhir ikut DBL dan saya bahkan nggak bisa bikin itu jadi momen yang berharga. Saya relain konser David Archuleta yang saya tunggu 3 taon dan udah di depan mata demi ini dan dapet banyak harapan besar dari temen-temen, itu yang semakin bikin sakit hati. Apalagi mengingat, well.. omongan-omongan kurang enak dari beberapa sekolah lain ditambah si Mama *oh my God* yang kurang mengerti betapa berharganya ini *meski akhirnya ngerti juga* dan bilang saya kayak anak kecil. Okeh, aku tau maksudnya baik, tapi please Mom kemaren maleeeeeem aja biarin aku nangis sepuasnya. Hidup memang berat saudara! akhirnya air mata nggak tertahan juga.

Hasilnya, pagi ini saya bangun dengan wajah super suram. Mata bengkak dan pusing setengah mati. Bangun siang sekali dan nggak nafsu makan. Terharu baca timeline-timeline di twitter tentang support dari semua temen-temen dan alumni. Thank you everybody, saya gak akan pernah nyesel sekolah di Sinlui dan kenal kalian semua.

At least, dibalik tiap kesedihan pasti ada kemenangan. 
CONGRATULATION FOR BOYS BASKETBALL TEAM! 
YOU'RE THE CHAMPION! 
Masih ada tanggal 23, you better show your best! Semangat, Mario, Lauren, Ricky, Chandra, Patrick, Juan, Bayu, Gio, Stanley, Vialy, Adit, James! Kalian pasti bisa! dan tentunya buat OSIS dan tutor yang sudah mati-matian mengelola 2500++ supporter dan yeah, we deserve that BEST SUPPORTER AWARD! Proud of you all! Gara-gara kalian semua juga hari ini Romo Alex berbaik hati meliburkan kita *yeahyeahyeah! \m/* Ramaikan lagi DBL arena sabtu besok :*

Clique, saya cintah kalian semua cemans-cemans. Cemungudh! Trio macan (elma,okta,nanda) taon depan harus lebih semangat lagi. Bakal rindu es tebu, papa americano, dunia lain, masterchef margorejo, gak gak kuat, Yovan the gorilla dan upil magnet!! *ngelap ingus kayak Lingke* masih ada hari Sabtu! mari gila-gilaan!!! Dan untuk si abang :

Taken this morning. CEMUNGUDH BANG BOLAY! :p
Sorry for not making it trough, for making you down and disappointed and not cheering you up. Sorry.

*Sudah ya sedih-sedihnya. Masih ada hari esok yang lebih baik*

The real winner doesn't have to win all the time. That's just a game plan.

Sweet escapades

My blog world without 30 days challenge was very dead. I've been keepin' busy with my school stuffs and i guess i didn't have something to post right here.


Last 27, 28 and 30 April i was having fun with hospitality world. Me and my friends Candy, Aynie and Ghe were joining Hospitality Rally Games 3 which organized by Petra Christian University, Hospitality Management Program. It was surprisingly unexpected games, unexpected team *yeah, made our team in a sudden* and unexpected registration because my team registered in last minute. It was a big relief when the committee put us in the participants list.

The Blue Lagoon Cocktail
They put us in a team named Blue Lagoon, taken from a kind of cocktail. It was a very beautiful cocktail i could say. Umm.. and during the race, we got a new team member from PCU itself, she is ce Lusi, a 2nd semester college student. She also joining the race and we fight together.

I'm really glad i got tons of experience there. Since i was a big fan of culinary business tho i didn't have enough  bravery to cook, i'm excited to got the whole package from fun to experience and a chance to try something i never try.

The most proud moment i had, probably on the first day of the race. In the second round, we were asked to decorate 3 layers of pancake with fruits. They gave us a slice of watermelon, melon and pineapple, a whole apple, and a mini banana plus 2 shared condensed milk *chocolate and full cream* and shared sprinkles. My team made a creation named 'Treasure Delight' *photo will be uploaded soon* but we had a major problem with the apple. We really didn't know what to do with that, then ce Lusi gave an advice "How if we turn those apple into a rabbit?". I remember watching a TV show on AFC showing those apple rabbit and i try to make one. IT WORKS! even it is really far from good and correctly trimmed, yet i'm really glad cuz the committee seems to appreciate my work and my teams to. No offense, i feel pretty good at that time :)

If you wanna know how does apple rabbit looks like :
Apple rabbit, made by a pro, not me.
The most fun part of the race was the 2nd day. Actually, our team didn't expect at all that we would go trough the next round, but Thank God He had another plan for us.

We went to Ciputra Waterpark and that was my very first time there. Even the sun was very hot and the race was very tiring, i guess this round was the best round between day 1 and final. The most interesting post was called 'Golden Summer'. We were asked to made a cocktail but the layer must be clear. All the members of my team didn't know how, even ce Lusi. We try as hard as we can but ended up fail again and again. Then the post keeper told us how. The secret so that the layer is clear enough to see is to put the mixture slowly with a glass in titled position. Once again, i got something to learn today and oh! about glass, i remembered on the first day, we were asked to memorized kind of glasses. Now i know which one is tumbler, shot glass, Irish coffee glass, wine glass, etc. Hihi.

Here's the recipe of our lychee and orange simple cocktail:
  • a shot of framboise
  • 2 shot of simple syrup (made by a melted sugar and water)
  • a shot of orange syrup *it is optional, you could replace that with lychee and any other kind of syrup*
  • ice cubes
  • soda




How to make:
  1. Put the ice cubes in the glass and let it cold. After it is cold enough, set aside the ice cubes and the melted water inside.
  2. In titled glass position, slowly pour a shot of framboise, 2 shot of simple syrup and a shot of orange syrup sequentially.
  3. Still in the titled glass position, pour the soda until the glass is full. Ready to serve :)
And it brings us to the final. Yeah!

The final day, we were asked to decorate 'nasi kuning' a traditional dish from Indonesia. We thought that if we made a kind of tumpeng*), it would be really common and we believe that most of the other competitor did the same thing. So we decided to made something different. We made a concept 'one bite surprising snacks' so we made those nasi kuning into dozens of onigiri shaped, filled with various nasi kuning filling. One bite surprising snacks is one bite size nasi kuning with surprising filling, because we didn't know what kind of filling inside each rice cuz we put it randomly.

We also worn cute outfit for the final, not like any other competitor who wore traditional outfit, we went into something more modern but still maintain the culture. Candy is the one who gave this idea for the costumes. *Any photos will be uploaded soon*

Cinta kahalang poster made by me :)
Finally for the innovation product, we made a fresh cold drink from something looks like yam, called bengkuang. We called our product 'Cinta Kahalang' which mean Forbidden Love in Sundanese. Why Sunda? because we got the theme 'Sangkuriang' which is Indonesian folktale from West Java. So we try to connect and relate one to another and there it is. Cinta Kahalang. Made from sliced bengkuang covered with sago flour with blue color *but ended up in green cuz some mistakes during the competition* with fresh pineapple and mixture of milk, cinnamon and pandan leaf *ended up only with milk because of another mistakes -.-*. Fortunately Beloved Social Class 4 attended the competition to support us. I'm glad we had a super supportive and caring friends like that. They help us to got a profit for our product and it lead us as the 3rd Winner! WOOHOO! Omg, i'm shocked and stoked at the same time.

It was a joy knowing that we won because everything seems to happen accidentally and everything works, even there's a lot of problems and barriers, we could go trough it and show our best.

I would like to thank everybody especially Mumsy Popsy Thomas, Abang cechemmarichem, Social Class 4, Ida Nordiana for being there to support us. Also ce Lusi, Candy, Ghe and Aynie for being a very supportive and nice team mates, for the transportation, tools and ingredients too! :D

I'm planning to join this race again next year, and my target? be better than this year. 
Yes, we can! :D

Many things happen last January which i didn't have enough time to post here because i was keepin' busy with school's stuff. I just want to say happy birthday to the greatest people i've known like Betet, My big brother: William eka putra, Jesica Harianto, Jenica Susanto, Ade Indra and his brother Andry. Yeah i'm sorry you all guys, i didn't have enough time to made a post about your special day and create you a birthday pics, but trust me, i do pray for you all.

I made this for Jesica, for her sweet seventeenth present
January 28th, i got a chance to attend Jesica's sweet 17th birthday party with my very own abang patrianata :p and thanks to jes who ask me to do polonaise dance with him. It was such a memorable *and awkward* moment.

* * *

Okay, so.. i just don't know why but i do feeling really unwell now. Mentally. People was like having fun with their big family in this chinese new year, but i'm not. Weird? yes, i do feel the same. I feel like nothing special today and for me right now, being gathered with all my big family today is just makes my day getting really awkward and should i say weird?

Seventeen and Me: The Evening, Night and Next Day

Kisah berlanjut sepulang sekolah..

Saya super mengantuk dan capek di mobil, tapi mengingat saya masih harus menghabiskan waktu sepulang sekolah dengan kawan-kawan saya tercinta saya jadi super senang, biarpun masih tetep ketiduran di mobil. Tiba-tiba waktu sudah sampe di penghujung pintu masuk Sutorejo Primadonna, Sang ii menelpon "Lin, wes sampe mana? (Lin, udah sampe di mana?)", Saya jawab saja "Wes nde depan kok (Udah di depan kok)" dan si ii tiba-tiba berkata "Ya wes, ada Chemmy di rumah (Ya udah, ada Chemmy di rumah)" And i was like.. Whuat???? berbunga-bunga :&

Begitu saya sampe di rumah, semua jadi kerasa beda. Sambil menunggu para cewek-cewek itu datang, saya menemani si pangeran tampan :& Dia bela-belain dateng sebelum ngelatih di Tresor. Once again, thanks for sparing your time :)

Jam sudah menunjukkan pukul 3 lewat, tapi anak-anak tak kunjung datang juga. Saya jadi super heran, padahal mereka pulang duluan daripada saya, tapi saya nyampe rumah duluan. Kesasar? Nggak mungkin. Jojo dan Clara tau rumah saya, jadi kesasar adalah alasan yang sungguh tidak mungkin. Ternyata si abang bilang kalo mereka lagi on the way dan masih macet. Tiba-tiba koko sepupu saya dateng dengan *ehem* pacarnya. Hohoho. Nice to see you brother! Lama tak berjumpa :D Dia juga kenalan dengan si abang which i don't know but i think that's kinda.. funny? haha :p

Tak lama kemudian datanglah anak-anak yang ditunggu. Ada Jojo (Yang membohongi saya katanya dia nggak bisa dateng gara-gara sepupunya dateng dari Jakarta!), Vero, NatNat, Cella, Catrul, dan.. CELINE! Oh my God, ada Celine! dan yang lebih bikin shock, dia bela-belain ijin pulang awal di sekolahnya demi bertemu dengan saya. I'm so touched! Saya benar-benar rindu sekali dengan dirinya. Hik hik. Thank you fiancee

Anak-anak yang lainnya masih belum dateng waktu itu, jadi yang sudah ada di rumah makan-makan duluan. Akhirnya, datanglah Clara, Jesica, Nikita ! I was really happy!

Setelah makan selesai, saya berkesempatan untuk meniup lilin ulang tahun which really rare to happen, karena jarang sekali saya merayakan ulang tahun saya. Selama 17 tahun hidup, saya cuma pernah tiup lilin 5 kali. Hahaha :P

Ini dia kuenya. By: Timothy Cake :)
Setelah make a wish, dan meniup lilin. Si Mama, ii dan anak-anak masih sempat menggoda saya dengan si abang! Oh darn, saya sungguh malu. I guess i'm blushing really bad at that time :$ Hahaha. But everybody seems happy with it and i'm really glad to see big smile on their face :)

What's happened next? Satpam depan rumah tiba-tiba dateng, nyari anak-anak pake seragam SMA, katanya mereka titip barang di pos satpam. Kapan mau diambil? soalnya si bapak satpam ini mau pulang. Wah.. firasat saya sudah memburuk ini. Tiba-tiba Niki pamit pulang. Saya nggak curiga soalnya saya tau dia OSIS dan besok ada acara OSIS di sekolah, jadi pasti dia super sibuk. After say good bye sama Niki dan Jesica yang katanya pulang bareng Niki, saya masuk ke dalem rumah lagi. Namun apa yang terjadi? Vero tiba-tiba menyergap saya keluar. O ow! Mimpi buruk nampaknya benar-benar akan terjadi! Karena saya pake seragam waktu itu, Jojo akhirnya menyuruh saya ganti baju. Bahkan sampe ganti baju pun saya diikuti si Vero di depan kamar supaya nggak kabur.

Saya diikat di pohon depan rumah bagaikan buronan. Dan tepat waktu itu si abang pamit, soalnya dia harus ngajar di Tresor. Bagus bang! Lebih baik anda tidak di sini, sebelum anda jatuh pingsan karena bau campuran aneh nan ajaib yang akan disiram pada saya yang tak lain tak bukan adalah campuran tauco, saos tomat, kopi, bumbu kare, soto, rawon, gule, tahu, kecap, dan.. TERASI UDANG. Nyamnyamnyam :& dan ternyata Niki dan Jesica belum pulang, mereka cuma ngambil ramuan itu di pos satpam. Oh my god, andai kalian semua tau baunya seperti apa! Saya yang dikerjai saja sampe ingin muntah rasanya! Belum lagi lemparan tahu-tahu dan siraman-siraman maut! Pake acara pura-pura ada bangkai cicak mati lagi di ramuan ajaib itu! Saya sampe teriak-teriak dan diliatin tukang-tukang yang kerja rumah di seberang dan orang-orang yang lewat depan rumah saya, bahkan tetangga saya juga.

Untung saya bisa melepaskan diri dan berbaik hati karena saya tidak menyerang balik anak-anak itu semua, soalnya mereka langsung menyodorkan kue ulang tahun lagi ke saya. Wow. After once again making wish dan meniup lilin, kami semua foto-foto tapi dengan jarak yang "agak" jauh, soalnya saya bener-bener bau. Akhirnya sebelum masuk rumah, saya membersihkan diri di teras. Baunya.. ya Tuhan.. Sungguh mematikan! Padahal, malamnya saya harus ke sweetnya si Cezia, kalo dengan badan bau nggak bisa hilang kayak gini gimana nasib saya?

Setelah mandi-mandi dan keramas kurang lebih 9 kali. Saya merasa bau saya sedikit memudar. Tapi, setelah rambut saya agak kering, bau-bau terasi kok sepertinya masih kuat sekali ya? Waktu Mama saya membau rambut sebelah kiri, memang masih sangat bau terasi! Akhirnya saya keramas lagi 6 kali! Jadi total saya keramas 15 kali! Sungguh menghabiskan shampoo! Finally, setelah benar-benar merasa bersih dan anak-anak sudah pulang satu per satu dan koko sepupu saya beserta ii saya juga pulang, rumah saya jadi sepi kembali.

Tak disangka, koko sepupu saya satu lagi datang dengan temannya! Yay! I'm so happy, tapi saya harus buru-buru meninggalkan dirinya soalnya harus siap-siap pergi ke Cezia. Singkat cerita, setelah saya siap untuk berangkat, koko sepupu saya itu juga pulang.

Sekitar jam setengah 7 malam, BYC a.k.a Bethlehem Youth Community *Biar berasa lebih keren daripada Laskar Supri a.k.a Laskar Sutorejo Prima! Hahaha* menjemput saya di rumah dan kami berangkat ke New Royal Restaurant buat ngerayain sweet 17 Cezia, yang bertepatan dengan ulang tahun saya juga. Di sana, saya juga dapet kado dari Cezia, gara-gara ulang tahun saya sama kayak dia, hahaha. So i thank you, Cez for that and happy sweet seventeen too to you!

Sebelumnya, saya ngajak juga beberapa anak HBS dateng ke rumah saya buat makan bareng, tapi kan mereka kebanyakan harus latihan WARS dulu, jadi saya sudah memperhitungkan waktunya juga, kalo nanti waktu saya pulang sweet, mereka sudah di rumah.

Waktu itu, saya udah sampe di ITS dan si abang tiba-tiba menelpon dan bilang kalo anak-anak sudah di rumah semuanya. Woot! Saya sungguh bersemangat sekali! Sesampainya di rumah dan berpisah dengan BYC, saya melanjutkan hari itu dengan HBS sampai tengah malam. Alangkah terkejutnya saya begitu ada Ai Melly Bertopi juga datang, I'm really excited! Sayangnya si Mario Ipin tak ikutan, hmm. Mungkin sibuk dengan latihan basketnya. Tapi tak apa lah yang penting banyak sekali yang datang dan rumah saya jadi super rame! I'm super duper excited! It's really really nice to spend my time with them! Saya senang sekali juga karena mereka juga senang bisa merayakan ulang tahun sederhana ini di rumah saya! Yay! I'm really enjoying that time, and if i can turn back time, i really want to passed it once again :)

Thank you HBS! :D *minus Opel dan Ce Elaine karena sudah pulang duluan. Hohoho*

That's it? NO! Hahaha.

January 8, 2011.

Saya lagi bosan-bosannya di sekolah nunggu acara tukar kado yang nggak mulai-mulai dan kegiatan-kegiatan nggak jelas lainnya waktu HP saya getar dan tertera sebuah nama di sana "X Ka We Es" dan alangkah kagetnya saya begitu saya baca SMSnya dan dia bilang kalo dia ada di sekolah, tapi nggak boleh masuk sama satpam dan terpaksa nunggu di CafeSera. Oh My God! Saya sudah lama sekali nggak ketemu WS, sejak awal masuk kelas 11 and i do miss her so much! FYI, WS ini adalah teman baik saya di XK sejak awal-awal masuk, biarpun pada akhirnya WS lebih deket dengan Natisa dan Saya dengan Jencong, tapi saya sangat sayang dengannya :)

Singkat cerita, acara sekolah sudah selesai dan sudah boleh pulang, saya SMS WS. Tak lama, dari CafeSera menyeberanglah dua orang cewek. Ada Natisa juga! dan WS! oh my, saya sungguh kangen padanya! Aw aw aw, WS cerita kalo tanggal 7 kemarin, mestinya dia mau mampir ke Sinlui, tapi dia nggak bisa bikin surat ijin, akhirnya nggak jadi. But i'm really glad that she came that day! Setelah melepas rindu dengan WS + Natisa dan berfoto-foto lagi bersama anak XK. WS dan Natisa pun pulang. I'm thankful to have someone who still remember me even we had known each other only for one year. Love ya WS and Bule :D

January 10, 2011.

Waktu itu pulang sekolah dan saya super kecapekan, akhirnya saya ketiduran hingga pulas. Namun sesuatu membangunkan saya. That's my big brother! "Ini kadomu" sambil dia menyodorkan sebuah kresek putih kepada saya. Begitu saya lihat. WOW! FULL COLOR MARKER! I'm so happy with that! Thank you so much my bro♥ I'm glad that you've change a lot lately and turn to a better person. I might never told you but i love you :)
