What's been happening for the last 3 weeks?
On the happy, jittery side....
I think Bali is the only part that Indonesia can be proud of.
People are nice, and they mind their own business there.
I can wear my cropped pants and sandals (or sneakers) and cute t shirts
..... and not have to worry about people saying that Im going to play soccer! *winks*

I mean, in Bali, you're practically allowed to wear ANYTHING you want.
You can even wear green shirts and red shoes!
Or go topless. Or whatever.
Nobody really cares 'cause most of us wear sunnies so everything looks.... well, pretty monochromatic, I think.

On the crappy side.... apparently Pluto is not a planet (anymore).
They'd been discussing it for the past few weeks and came to a conclusion that it's not a planet.

It really blows all my childhood concepts about the solar system out of the water.
I mean, we've been taught that Pluto was a planet, right?

I guess we'll all have to take a marker and some liquid paper to that space-poster on the wall! Pluto gets dwarfed:
Really makes me wonder how many planets there'll be in the solar system in a century.

On the more serious stuff,
I finally quit work. Yesterday was my last day...
surprisingly, I felk kinda.... sad.
My female boss is a great boss. She can be annoying from time to time, but she's indeed a great boss.

One of the expats gave me this email, which i tot was so sweet..

Dear Candice,

It is really great to know a warm person like you, may god bring all the good luck to you. Wish you and your small and cute family a very happy n prosperous life ahead.

With not much time passed, all the people who had some role in bringing us (me n ashish) to Busana have already left. P'Manish, P'Arjun and you (you were the company's face) when we were in India.

But this is life, nice people come and go leaving their pleasant memories, and life goes on. Thanks a lot for everything you have done for us.

All the best once again and keep in touch.

B.Rgds
Pranav

Aaawww....

Had a farewell lunch with Abo n Ijen yesterday.
That was one of the best moments in my life.
We had nice lunch, and some whacky-out-of-the world conversation. *poor Cat being the object of our jokes*
We laughed our head off eh!! I had a blast!

It's great to spend time with really really good friends.
I treasure them. Im so blessed to have friends like Bo n Jen.

Now on the more mellow side..

You know those moments?
Where your brain reaches a certain saturation and nothing’s absorbing no matter how hard you try to stuff it in?
The more you try to stuff it in, the more you stressed yourself out.

You know, sometimes it's easy to tell to a lie.
It doesn't hurt to tell a lie.
... but it does hurt (big time!) knowing that it was only a lie.
I wish I dont have to lie.

A song from Highschool Musical sums up my feeling :

It's funny when you find yourself looking from the outside.
Im standing here, but all I want is to be over there.

.... now even I can tell, that I confuse my feeling.......

I need to remind myself over and over again that things will turn out find.
My poor brain... i've used it too much these couple of weeks.
It's gotta be hard on those neurones! *sorry brain... blame the heart!*

I need to stop and breathe. Stop and breathe. Stop and breathe. Stop and breathe.

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

Pippy

We have a new addition in the family. We adopted a Jack Russell from SPCA.  Kenapa anjing? Karena seumur idup gua, for as long as I can remember, gua selalu punya anjing. Bukan cuma sekedar "miara" loh, tapi yg bener2 part of the family.  Yg paling membekas itu tentu aja Piko ama Picca my last two dogs.  Kakah died when I was about 5 months pregnant with Onya. Jadi Onya sama sekali ga sempet ketemu my dogs.  Makin kesini gw makin yakin, kalo animals play an important role in kids life (at least di idup gw lah). They learn about responsibility, caring and most importantly compassion. I wanna give a chance buat Onya ngerasain apa yg gw rasain ke Piko n Kakah. The gift of unconditional friendship they gave... And how u learn to love them too.  Kenapa adopt? Karena saya ini agak2 idealis tapi realistis. I love animals. Dogs especially.  Idealis karena gw mau do the right thing YG GW BISA. Realistis karena, as much I want to.... Gw ga akan sanggup kl disuru jadi...

Another Random Post

It is perhaps a monumental probability that I've simply forgotten what has kept me here. Or evidently, what I have fought so hard for. What wind could be so strong, it banishes hundreds of acres of oaks, yet still ever so gentle enough to persuade even the most delicate of buds to move with, barely, an inch-long effort. My God, seeing kunyuk with that robe triggered something inside. I miss her. I know she'd worked soooo hard to be where she is now. I miss those moments. Though I must admit, maybe, just maybe... Im not running for the same dream anymore. The passion still there, ... it's just become a smaller part of me. Could I have waited this long, and demolished five full years of emotional barricade? Nah. I've walked too far to even think of steeping back. What faith could have, so morbidly, left my judgement impaired? The first scar may be the deepest, but a scar is a scar. ... and one left to bleed without stitches is bound to come undone. Tapi guess what? Im hea...
