Try to Catch the Deluge in a Paper Cup

Today,
Work was such a dread,
Baski was such a jerk as always,
wedding plan was too much to bear,
new house created so much tantrums between me and Andi,
Ester's dad passed away, which somehow made me feel down in a way I can't even explained,
and the list goes on.

All in all, I had a long, shitty day today.
=====================
Wedding...... less then 3 months lagi.
Somehow gw maleees banget kalo ngebayangin sincia taon depan.
Musti ngumpul2 ama Andi's big family.

I grew up in a small-family circle.
Kita ampir ga pernah yg namanya ngumpul sama Om, tante n cousins.
Almost never.
From scale 1 to 10, frekuensi kita ngumpul2 palingan juga 0.3 (yes, zero point three)
There's always been me, dad, mom, bro, selly, andi n oma.
Ga pernah tuh yg namanya ngumpul satu keluarga besar....

My dad has 4 other siblings.
Om Jijin di Jambi,
Om Wawan di Cicurug,
Om Bubun di Jerman,
Om Bebeng di Yunani.

Jadi emang secara geografi, kita emang ga mungkin sering2 ngumpul.
Sedangkan dari mom's side...... hmm, I practically know almost no one!!
Paling Alung n Ci momo.

N kita never ngumpul bareng2.
Paling sesekali Om Jijin dateng n we had dinner di bakmi GM.
Itu juga belon tentu setaon sekali.
I dont even know what most of my cousins look like!

N you know wat???
Im happy with that. Really I am.

Gw ga suka basa basi just for the sake of being nice n polite.
Too much drama!!!
Yg ada malah jadi ajang gosip. Males banget daaah!
==============

Ga usah deket2 gw dulu deh,
Im sooo not in a good mood.

Gw pusing mikirin kawinan,
males ngomong soal rumah juga,
ga niat basa basi soal kerjaan,
bete denger si piko gonggong mulu minta kue, rakus!!!
keki liat si kakah cemberut mulu,
najong liat infotainment yg ngurusin hal2 ga penting,
ribet ngedengerin suara si oma,
gemes ama Andi yg maen pesen keramik 5 dus,
pokonya nothing seems right!!

And I guess that pretty much sums up everything.
I've learned that expectations and happiness are sort of inextricably linked.
Sometimes high expectations only bring disappointment, if not outright unhappiness.

Kesel dikasih harapan2 kosong mulu.
Emang enak??!?!?!!!

Ga usa ngomong de!!
Dieeemm! ngerti ga? DIYEM LUH!
Bau! Cacing! Jelek! Daki-an! Gonggo! Iiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!
@#^%##?>%@%&*!!!?!?!

*baru inget, apprentice hari ini apa besok yee?*

Au ah! Gua seeebbbeeeelll!!

Bucket List

Yep. Been hearing a lot about people dropped dead suddenly. Mulai dari si Adjie Masaid, babenya si Joshua, then just now Emma's friend juga Dadaism died of heart attack. She was 29 years old, just got ,arrayed last October. Life is so fragile. That's why I really hate Andi each time I have to remind him over and over again about healthy lifestyle. Anyway, decided to make a bucket list for myself. 1. Back to NZ 2. Sky dive 3. Vacation to Russia 4. Having more than enough funds for Onya to pursue her degree in England, Oxford University preferably :) 5. Ngeliat Andi punya bodi keren 6. Buying a house for my parents 7. Karet tengsin dijual Hmmm....... Belon kepikiran yg lawn. Nanti di update lg deh

Lavender and Butterfly

My very first (and probably my last) tattoo. Why lavender ?  Because I love the smell.  I love the colour.  Lavender is pretty much the only plant that stays alive in my garden. It thrives in pretty much any weather with very little care. It lives with a big bunch of other lavenders but it can also lives on its own little bundle. It shows strength, and grace. Butterfly means beauty. Not just superficial beauty... but beauty after a storm. Beauty that was earned.  Like, after it went through struggles from a cocoon. Plus, you see butterfly (normally) in a great weather. Adds the beauty to the surroundings, like a balance in the universe.  Psalm 23:6 , is what I really resonate in my life.  That no matter what, no matter where, no matter how many bad decisions I’ve made.... God’s goodness and mercy is always with me. That I’m okay. That the God who made the universe loves me still.  That regardless how fucked up I am, His goodness and mercy is always wi...

A Wife's Heart

Postingan kali ini buat Andi. Feel so blessed beyond words punya suami kaya beliau. Walo banyak rese n nyebelinnya juga. He works really hard. I mean REALLY hard. I know I've complained about him being too busy, but lately he changed. Yes, dia masih sibuk banget di kantor. Yes, dia masih suka 'nyetrap' gw di mobil suru tunggu. Tapi I know that family is his top priority. The house is almost done. Andi spent hours last Sat and Sun buat bebersih rumah. Gw ga boleh ikut. "masih debuan banget" - gitu katanya. He knows Im allergic to dust and frankly, what can a pregnant woman possibly do? Ga mungkin juga kan gw ngangkat2 furniture. Naek tangga aja suka engap. Dapet laporan dari Otoy, Andi ngangkat2 barang ampe mukanya merah, ampe kringetan ngeces2... Gw tau dia pasti cape banget. Tapi begitu pulang he brought nothing but his big, warm smile. "Udah. Nanti gw sekali lagi kesana, finalize bersih2 - then you can come. Tuh gw beliin kelapa, mau diminum sekarang ga?...
