Another Post

Im on blogging frenzy these few days.
Mumpung lagi ada mood nya and I think it's good for the future-me to look back. 

Masi ga jau2 dari issue health deh. 
Kemaren ahirnya ketemu Shona, dah lost fokus banget deh gw abisan. 

I haven't been sleeping udah sekitar 2 minggu. I'm lucky enough if I get 2 hours sleep a day.

Awalnya si gara2 I was still in so much pain due to the ulcers ya. Jd kebangun2 mulu. Tapi lama2 pain nya makin bearable, tapi somehow my brain just doesn't switch off.

Sebenernya dikata stress mikir juga ngga si. Gw ga mikir yg berat2 gimana. Kadang emang cuma ga ngantuk aja. Ngerti ga si? 

Ternyata tidur itu penting. Karena tobput it bluntly, makin lama gw ga tidur - makin begolah gw. It comes to a point sampe kayanya mikir ini hari apa aja tuh lammaaaa. 

Ngomong juga loncat2 ga jelas.

Yg bikin parahnya, im really really good at masking things. If I dont tell you, u wont notice there's something yg not right with  me. Frankly, Andi aja ga nyadar kok kalo gw ga bilangin. 

Cuma medical professional aja rasanya yg "engeh". 
Kemaren pas ketemu Shona, kalimatbpembuka gw "I need ur help".
Yg dijawab dengan "you haven't been sleeping have u?"

Yg udah kayak dam meledak, tiba2 gw nyerocos dah. Mendadakan extrovert akut.

Ngoceh2 about nothing seems to be working! how I was anticipating constipation from the codeine - instead i got diarrhea. About how the codeine didn't even help with the pain. About how it didn't make me sleep.

About I kinda lost it. About how frustrating it is. About the drama at work. 
And about how I wish I could sleep and never have to wake up again. 

Shona stopped me right there, immediately. 
She said those words aren't helping. That she understands how frustrating it is. That I've gone through so much (in terms of my health) in such a short time.

Dia bilang all those overwhelming frustration will likely to ease if I can get some sleep. Sleep is crucial, even in a healthy 100% people kalo kurang tidur efeknya bakal gede. Apalagi di gw yg belon 100% - my body is still trying to heal the ulcers, still having tachycardia, still having unexplained pain on the RUQ - so the feeling is very normal and understandable. 

Try not to sleep for 2 week-ish and tell me if that doesn't mess your brain up! 

Thought of something like "doooh, mati aja deh" or "tiduuurr! Ga usa banguun lagi" or "taiiiii!!" or "fuck i just wanna sleep!" Then balik lagi ke "death would be good" - GAK mikir suicide sama sekali (gw masi punya, percaya dan takut Tuhan) - gw cuma capppeee. Keseeelll. Frustrassiiii.

I can understand org2 yg depresi. This small thing can really lead to depression if Im not careful. Especially if you're an introvert. 

Intinya gw dikasi sleeping pills. Zopiclone.
Took it last night. PAIT!!!! Beneran obat paling pait yg pernah gw makan. 

Guess what?
I slept for like an hour dari jam 8-9... Kebangun gara2 denger suara garasi, Andi pulang abis badminton.  Then gw melek dooong sampe jem 5 pagi! Kampret banget ga si. 

Gw selalu bilang, gw ini Claire Bennett. A character from Heroes. 
I just dont get sick. I heal up fast. 
And beneran deeeh, metabolisme n organ gw tuh kuat beneeerr. Kayanya apa2 musti high dose baru mempan di gue. Kesel!!

Gila banget deh. Obat tidur ga efek di gueee. Keselnya da mo makan batu rasanya!!

Twist of the event:
Jam 5 gw tidur ahirnya. 630 weker bunyi, bangun mandi. 

Trus 4,5 jam ilang aja gitu dari otak gw. Begitu "sadar" gw bingung. Ko gw udah di kantor. 
Gw kan ga bole ngantor ama Shona sampe Senen. Panik dooong.
I had NO recollection at all about how I get to work!!
The last thing I remember itu gw mandi. 

Fuck, bahaya banget ga sik!!!
I was sleep driving! Gw did EVERYTHING right. I was functioning 100%. Bahkan gw bales text andi, wasapan sama andi. I did my job di kantor, ngobrol sama colleague gw. Nothing out of the ordinary!!!!

The only thing different is: gw ga inget sama sekali all those!!!!!

Freaked me out!! 
Gw google - ternyata emang salah satu rare efeknya ya itu. Karena sleep gw "keputus". With that pills, I NEED to sleep 7-8 hours. Tapi karena sleep gw keputus, gw cuma tidur sejam pas abis makan obatnya (yg gw bangun jam 9) jadi emang ini side effect nya. Macam "sleep-walking" 

My brain is exhausted from everything that's been going on. My body is tired. Makanya all those kejadian deh. 

Serem banget ga siikkk!!! 

Gw pulang tadi sama andi ahirnya jam 1130. Dirumah ngedadak ngantuk. Dapet tidur sejaman. 

Stopping the pills immediately. 

Oh, I have to do a HIDA scan next Tuesday to see the liver and gall bladder. It's a MRI based scan. They're gonna put an IV line (again) and inject some radioactive tracker into the vein. Sounds very technologically advance. 

Mustinya dpt jadwal tgl 7 Oct di public. Tapi kemaren sama Shona disuru majuin asap. Go private lagi aja, toh gw punya insurance n Selasa depan deh jadinya. 

Daannn sekarang gw ga ngantuk doong.

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?...
