Politisi Kecil

Berita di Metro TV menayangkan si pencuri pisang yang dihukum bertahun-tahun. Gw yang saat itu lagi berdua adek gw yang masih kelas 5 SD cuma bisa mendesah sedih. I'm living in a very cruel world.

Adek gw yang ga bisa menahan kegondokannya, langsung memaki dengan serius. I mean, VERY SERIOUS.

Nenek-nenek nyuri Kakao masuk penjara, nyuri pisang dihukum bertahun-tahun, ekstasi kebawa dikurung 4 tahun.. Anggoro+Anggodo malah berkeliaran! Nasabah Bank Century ga dibalikin duitnya! Negara macam apa sih?!

I am so amazed with her.

PS: by the time I wrote this, my -now living in Auckland- Brother is calling to ask my favor to sms him our home address. buset alamat rumah sendiri lupa.

Success!!

The first time I cook successfully, I wasn't taking a picture at all :(

:hammer:

Sekolah dan Menikah

Mama :

Investasi Papa yang paling besar itu di anak-anaknya. Kecuali kamu, kamu SD sampai SMA, negeri yang bayarannya ga pernah diatas Rp 50.000. Kuliah cuma bayar taun pertama, didiskon lagi. Ampe wisuda malah ga bayar apa-apa...

Diantara adek-adek kamu kan kamu yang sekolah paling murah.. Makanya kawinan kamu gede-gedean.

Me :

Hah?

In A Rush

-deciding menus

-appointing committee

-start buying 'seserahan'

-start buying uniforms

-contacting make up artist

-prewedding

-start listing names for invitation

what to do next:

-invitation's payment term 1

-drawing map to the house for holy matrimony

-check colour

-print invitation

-hook up committees with the coordinator

-KUA

-technical meeting with Manggala

-check entertainment

-Rheino's down payment

-crosscheck invitation lists with Abang

rr.. okey, i'll think about the other later. :P

Prewedding Pictures

Last Sunday my soulmate and I were taking prewedding pictures. Very sorry I can't upload it now. BIG SURPRISE hahaha... (i know, the title cheated you hahaha)

Anyway, our pictures were taken by Andi Sufyandi (+628122050551). During photo session, this guy -without realizing at all- had his wallet accidentally opened by my Sis (because she thought it was my fiancee's wallet) and accidentally taken to the office by my Dad (because he thought it was his wallet) hahaha

Our make up were done by Dyah Margiastuti (+628129459142). Tante Dyah is now enjoying her 51st years of living, having 1 grand daughter, yet still productive and stunning!

Here are some peek of their work (but not for my prewed pictures)

Tante Dyah's magic tricks:

Andi's magic clicks:

do contact them soon, they won't disappoint you :)

Venedig

Tadi siang, untuk menyenangkan hati adek gw yang kecil karena emak gw pergi melulu, emak gw nyuruh gw ngajak adek gw itu ke salah satu kafe di deket rumah (tempatnya di Golden Boulevard BSD), namanya Venedig :)

Sebenernya coba-coba sih, cuma tertarik sama tulisan "eat and play" di depan kafenya, tapi ga nyesel juga kesana. Untuk interior biasa banget, tapi dia punya satu pojokan berisi beberapa majalah dan selemari maenan! Bukan robot2an dsb, tp kaya permainan macam uno, monopoli atau permainan strategi. COCOK! gw suka banget maenan begitu :D

Untuk harganya standar ala kafe-kafe begitu deh. Nasgor 19rb-an, steak 30-40rb-an. Tapi yang ngagetin, dia nawarin Sirloin WAGYU 200gr dengan harga 60rb! (kalo di Tamani, gw mikir dua kali deh buat beli... harganya juga ampir 3x lipat juga T_T) Karena penasaran ya wes lah gw coba.. Dan adek gw sukses makan sop buntut sama steaknya. Eh gw bantu comot2 deng (comotnya banyak) hehe. Minum kopi, Aqua, sop buntut + Wagyu steak dan games gratis semuanya dibuah 100rb. Masih cukup mahal sih buat gw yang lagi nabung. tp anggep aja sodakoh deh hehe :)

Cukup gw rekomendasikan lah buat yang pengen makan dengan variasi lain. Gw mulai memikirkan makan malem berdua Abang disini sambil maen UNO :P

ps: gw tadi maen "guillotine" selama nunggu makanan. Mejanya kecil gamesnya harus jejerin kartu, jadi gw harus makan di meja lain. Saran gw kalo mau enak sih, meja dua aja dijejerin biar bisa maen sambil makan/makan sambil maen.. ^^

pss: gw lg males nulis pake bahasa Inggris hahaha

Pampering Myself: A Big Wish

Within these hectic moments and activities, a nice pedicure + manicure, soothing lulur, relaxing reflexy (whether @ the beauty salon/ @ home) or even a simple moments like reading and watching movies together would be something considered grace.

I think I should have some moments that way, just so I stay sane :)

PS: Does shopping for seserahan/pulangan considered pampering myself too? It's kinda fun to pick and choose stuffs :) shop is considered as girl's heaven right? but seeing seserahan list was somewhat shocking. Maybe I'm not the type of a person who ask for something so much. Dad's teaching: giving is better than asking. You give people something, God will give you more. And etc :P

Actually I like to shop, especially shopping for books! But I need to save money and such for the pre and post wedding, so probably I need to hide my credit card, atm card and money somewhere else :P

Scatters from Lebaran 2009

I just love these pictures! Taken by me and my sister with her Canon EOS 400d in the front yard of my granny's house in Bandung.

Super fun moments!

of course, my favorite is below!

My sister captured my cousin's expression in a very perfect moment!
