Being Pregnant is Weird

One experience exclusive to pregnant women is the feeling and sight of involuntary movements across the surface of my belly.


People've been telling me that later I'll see the distinct outline of an elbow jutting out from the side, and then probably discuss with Andi whether it was an elbow, or a knee... or maybe head?

A friend from Malaysia told me that when she got pregnant with her firstborn, after spending about 15 minutes napping on her right, she woke up with a lopsided belly, where the right side of her waist was bigger than the left.


Her baby probably slid to the right, and stayed there for a bit even after she woke up.
She said, 'why are you there?' and then she felt some shuffling INSIDE of her — voila! A perfectly symmetrical belly all over again.

Being pregnant is strange.
.... but Im loving it a whole lot! :)

And no, I still haven't gotten over that bursting belly button fear.
Udah makin ceper nih udelkuuh! hiks!


Anyway, strangest thing happen today.

I was happily typing and (pretend to be) working really hard when I felt a sudden rush of tears streaming down.
I thought, what the heck is so wrong with me??


And as if that weren't enough, I suddenly felt the urge to meet Andi.
I missed him a whole lot!
Now, THAT never ever happen before.
I miss him sooo much that I literally shed tears.... in the office????


Buset daah!!
I think it's hormones.

Next thing I knew, I bought a cup of coffee thinking "Im gonna drink coffee so that I can stay awake a little longer tonight and spend more time with him"


After a 1/4 cup of coffee later, Im typing this right now.
Feeling all silly and smiling at what just happened.


Conclusion:
Being pregnant is weird and strange.... in a good way :)

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...
