Another One of Those Times...... Again.

Berasa balik lagi ke taun 2005.
Saat belon merit.
Saat nyari rumah.
Saat begitu banyaaak pertimbangan dan perhitungan.

Again, it's about finding the right house.
House we can call home.
A place to raise Onya up.

Disaat2 kaya gini, perasaan dan harapan itu berasa kaya lagi dimaenin. Mumet loh. Mentok loh.

Sebenernya kriteria rumah gw ga ribet2 (amat) kok.

Satu.
I do NOT want old house. Apalagi di Wellington itu yg namanya rumah tua ya ga nanggung2 tuanya. Mereka dgn bangganya bilang "built in early 1920s". Bah!! Ga tau berapa bangke yg kekubur disana. Hiiiyy...

Dua.
3 kamar yah. Karena kalo 2 kamar ga bakal cukup eventually. I'm hoping 2 yrs from now Onya udah mau bobo in her own room. Nah kalo kita cuma beli yg 2 kamar, means kalo ada tamu berati Onya kudu digusur sementara.
Waktu gw kecil, gw SELALU kebagian yg digusur kalo pas si Dimitris or om bubun or tante kiki dateng... And I hate that! Ga ngerti juga kenapa ucok ga pernah kena gusur. So I dont wanna do the same to Onya.
Digusur itu ga enak. It's a violation of privacy!

Tiga.
Musti masuk school zone yg decile 10.
Coz I think for primary Onya will go into state school, which means we have to live within that particular school zone.

Yg syarat mutlak itu ya cuma those 3 above. Kalo beli yaa itu. Kalo rent dulu sih mau 1 kamar jg gpp.

I'm losing sleep over this matter.
It's another wave of stressfull nights.
Time is not something we have as we're leaving Jkt in less than 2 months!
-------------------------------

On a lighter note, I'll be seeing Andi in 3 days.
Pretty sure we'll talk a WHOLE LOT, and I got a feeling that apart from kangen2an melepas rindu, kayanya bakal ada brantem2nya juga deh ahahahaha.
As I said, too many un-done and unprepared things di NZ.

Getting out of comfort zones are never easy, eh?

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?...
