The most valuable lesson that I learn from my dad.

If you wanna give something to others,
Give the best that you can.

Papi selalu bilang kalo kita harus ngasih yg terbaik yg kita bisa kasih.
Daripada ngasih yg jelek, mending ga usah ngasih sekalian.
Yes, yes... I learn how to value people with my gifts.

As I think, and think, and think… and re-think,
I’ve got a lot in common with papi deh.
As much as I hate the way he lectured me,
I found myself lecturing others the way he did to me.
Aaarrgghh!!!

Si Abo aja kadang suka bilang cara ngomong gw sama ama bokap.

Not a bad thing juga sih, I just need to be (a lot) subtler than him.

I know I inherited some of his way of thinking, his ambitions, his way of giving,
…. Unfortunately, not his brain. Huehguheuga…
Im so not a logical type.
And definitely not his love for books! (my bro got this, but not me)

Yg bikin gw mikir ttg all these sebenernya gara2 tadi sih.
We had this memorial service for my late boss.
Had a short time of prayer and a very very short sermon.

The pastor talked about how people came into our lives and made us who we are today.
Iya juga sih, all the goods and bads.
All the joys and the pains,
made us who we are today.

I am what I am now, yaaa karena orang2 disekeliling kita juga toh?
Tingkah laku kita,
why we do what we do...
ga lepas dari pengalaman idup kita.

Begitulah.. just feel like crapping.

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?...
