blah.blah.

Tahun ini Wendy udah buat janji sama diri sendiri. Janji tahan engga pulang ke indo sampe TR keluar. Sekarang udah hampir setaun sih ga pulang, 3 January 2009 nanti bakal setaun ga pulang. Ini waktu terlama aku ga pulang indo. Lumayan bisa tahan sih sampe sekarang tapi klo disuruh kaya 2 thn ga pulang rasa-rasanya sangat ga mungkin deh. Kalo TR udah keluar sih mungkin pas bulan2 pesawat murah mau pulang aja, 2 minggu gitu juga ga papa.

Tadi pagi anterin adeknya Odri ke erport, liat banyak student n orang2 yg aku kenal pada mudik juga. Jujur sih dalem ati kecil pengen banget balik indo. Ga harus sekarang sih, Febuari-an gitu juga boleh sih. Gimana ya no matter what Indonesia tetep my home country, I have my own sentimental values sama Surabaya apalagi rumah. No matter how bad my home country is, no matter how such a mess Indonesia is, no matter how I hate the air,the people and the situation; I will always love it, deep down in my heart.

Ah, let me go home.

I welcomed you, summer :(

The very first thing you will notice when it's summer is your day will be so long, the sun will shine brightly at your room at 5am and your day will be dark at *the soonest* 8.30pm. Somehow, I don't like it, the first few weeks you will definitely feel very strange having your dinner while the sun is still up. It's just strange. I'm so hungry rite now and guess what I still don't feel like having dinner because the sun still shines out there. Weirdo me.

sabtu ini

Saya dan Jojon merantau ke jepang. hahahaha. hush. engga lah. Kita ke opening toko Japon (yang dulu di Subiaco), sekarang pindah ke North Freo, deketnya post office jojon, deket banget. Sampe disana ya muter2 biasalah, si Jon terkagum2 dan bangga sama Jepang2an gitu sambil megang2 tiap barang yang ada. Wendy? serem liat barang antik2 gitu mana byk patung2 gitu hiiiy. Karna hari ini openingnya, disediain gitu sake, Asahi beer, sushi, wine, champagne jadi ya lumayan menarik lah hahahaha. Yang bisa aku komen-in: Asahi beer? biasa aja enakan Heineken malah. Sake? hueeek kaya minum aer rebusan nasi yang udah basi. sumpah.

Perjalanan dilanjutkan dgn makan siang di Flip Side, di satu jalan juga di North Freo kalo ga salah di Stirling hwy. Ini cafe? restaurant? depot? cuman jualan burger sapi dan ayam dan vegie tok. Lumayan lucu sih cafe ini konsepnya, bener2 minimalist bule gitu dan lumayan rame lho, bule semua sih yg makan. Price rangenya: $9-$13 gitu dan kids sizenya $6.5. Kita sih perut Asia, cuman bisa makan kids size doank itu aja aku cuman makan 3/4 sisanya ke jojon hahahaha. Oh ya, disini yang mantep sih thick cut chipsnya. Enak bangeeeed trus bisa milih dippingsnya gitu. Trus hebatnya lagi, tadi chipsnya sisa trus di take away gitu dan setelah beberapa jam masi crunchy dan enak. chips yang hebat.



Abis itu kita ke Claremont, cuman liat2 aja secara disitu semua harga ga terjangkau buat kasta kita. Pas baru sampe disana hujan deres lebat dingin ampun. Jadi pas kita liat ada kayak gang gitu, kita masukin aja buat berteduh. Di dalemnya gang itu banyak toko2 lucu gitu, salah satunya itu foto diatas. Toko ini jual barang2 super duper lucu tapi ya itu sayang harganya lumayan mahal2 *ukuran kita* kayak sempet spent waktu lamaaa banget, satu2 dipegan2 dan diliatin ga mau di lepas hahaha tapi ya sudah apa boleh buat, dana tak terkecukupi. Di Claremont, bener2 cuman masuk satu toko, keluar lagi. Si jon sih cuman bisa bilang gini, " Ngapaen sih masuk Mimco lagi, percuma ga beli apa2 diliat doank, ngomel2 harga mahal tapi pengen trus udah keluar" hauhuahuahauahuahhahauhauha. Tapi situ suka khaaan pura2 bilang, " Woow, this is so cheap only $450, buy some now !" hahahahaha. Abis ujannya reda dan panas lagi, kita pulanglah. Tapi sempet mampir bentar sih ke Cottesloe Center yang sumpah isinya cuman woolies dan Harvey Norman dan beberapa toko kecil *kok bisa sih di sebut Centre, dr depan sih menipu*.

Heheehehehehehe

Entah kenapa pikiranku dipenuhi oleh tindakan tindakan radikal akhir2 ini.

Yang barusan terjadi adalah membeli tiket return ke MELBOURNE sodara2. Ini benar2 dipikirin less than 12 hours.
Emang sih pengen banget liburan gitu, tapi kemana??

Engga Boleh KELUAR NEGERI sama regulations bridging visa. Ya udah harus domestic donk.
Sydney? Kayaknya udah eneg, masak 3x setaun kesana mana yg trakir hampir sebulan tinggal disono.
Melbourne? Pilihan paling tepat, tapi ya ituu kapan hayo. Setelah dipikir2 ya, kalo desember udah sangat pasti ga bisa karna kerja full. Januari rada ga enak ambil libur, khan baru dipindahin ke department baru.

Ya udah sekarang aja lho. mumpung belom byk kerjaan dan tiket murah. hahaha dangkal ga sih?

Eniweiiii ya begitu tuh. hehehehehehe.

Melbourne here I come, Lippe belahan jiwa here I come.

a thank you letter

Credits to someone who has brought me back to my old memories.

See, I'm smiling :)

The jokes and the bullies are still the same. I'm happy for that.
Thank you for bullying me and making me laugh.
You almost made my day :)
Almost. aha. Im bullying you :P

You can be my Santa Claus

*wink wink ke mama, khan udah ga pulang lho ntar Natal sendirian, sepi ky gurun di Perth ini :( *

I just did my first radical movement

and I was not shocked. I felt so relieved, indeed. The idea just came in seconds before I decided to do it, nah, I didn't even think about it twice. My mood has been swinging this whole day. Well, to start with, I had a bad one this morning and when I got the news, I had bright and smiling mood for the whole noon. But then, this radical thinking made me feel being trapped and yeah, I told that person about it. I might have been an arrogant young lady, insisting that person to do what I wanted to. I felt awful though, keeping that person wandering around getting what I wanted but what else could I do?

Sitting quietly in my desk and getting trapped for like, a year? Nah, this is my turn now. I told people what I wanted to be, not their opinions influencing my decisions. I can be on my feet, I don't need yours. Thank you for that, btw.
Thank God I have the best parents, they support me 100%, they believe in me.

I might have done my second radical movement in less than 3 months. In December probably. Nah, I won't do any harmful activities, it's just something that I haven't thought about it but I think I need it now.

Thank God for leading me this way. It's just, I know it's You who did it.

Ok lah kalo begichuuu

Sore ini lumayan ketawa ketiwi bareng dita. Dari gosip di sofa sampe gosip di kamar mandi bareng *yak emang bener kita buka2an pintu kamar mandi kalo di rumah hahahaha*.

Pas lagi baca blog random orang yah, ada postingan yang di tulis dalam basa inggris yg kaco. I mean bener2 kaco. Dan mnrt research kita berdua, itu blog mayan banyak lho yg baca. hahahahahaha. no offence ya tapi itu bener2 lucu banget kalo dibaca. Kita juga ga kepinteran nulis inggris tapi itu pwarwah. Dia lagi nulis ttg patah hati jd malah jadi lucu gitu, malah sempet kita parodi'in dalem bentuk opera ala harper. sumpah lucu abis.

because you killed my love again and again and again i bore with your unbearable pain that tried me. forgive is to be divine i'm not a God and i cannot forgive i am not human. nothing is not able to be killed.

gimana, lucu khan?

Trus lanjut lagi ketawa ketiwinya pas di tunjukin sama dita ttg video di utube yg lagunya berjudul Ok lah kalau begitu. Sumpah itu juga lucu banged dan bener2 corny dan cheesy dan bener2 beraksen Tegal. Seperti biasa tuh si Dia kalo lg nyantol sama satu lagu bakal di nyanyiin sebulan kali. Tapi ini dia nyantol itu lagu, tiap menit dia bisa nyanyi OK LAH KALO BEG BEG BEGITU ... gitu terus deh, tanya apa dijawab pake lagu itu. ga tau harus stres ato ketawa

Eh setelah di eksplorasi *bener ga sih?* beberapa hari ya, ini kantor mayan goib lho khan cuman ada 4 orang satu ruangan wendy, FnB manager, PAnya pak JiEM dan pak JiEMnya. Mereka jarang banged duduk manis di desknya gitu, karna wendy yg plg ga penting ya udah keluar kantor cuman buat lunching sama klo dipanggil front desk gitu jadi aku plg tau donk sapa aja yg di kantor. Laaah ituuu khan jrang ga ada orang nih, tapi sering ada bunyi2an ga jelas gitu lhoooooooo. Seperti contohnya, bunyi kursi digoyang2, trus bunyi printer cetek2 gitu tapi ga ada orang. Hayuuuuh.

When things are broken off

I wish things would be getting any better next year. I have to say that I need a break from all these things.
I don't know where would I be next year. It's not just me who's dealing with this current f**king situation. Just don't be surprised if I do something radical anytime soon.

I'm not sure yet

Whether this would suit me.

whether there would be enough points to get my PR

whether I can handle that

* stress effect *

when your office is exactly next to GM 's office and you will be by yourself on your fourth day working, answering all the inquiries which you have no idea at all and people might be thinking how can be this company hired a stupid person like me; you will feel like a big fat dump who can't speak English properly and has never been to school.

Wendy sedang:

1. Sangat berharap sesuatu yang sangat baik akan datang

2. Memohon di-doa-in supaya sesuatu yang baik akan datang

3. Ingin loncat ke minggu depan

4. berpikir bgm cara menghilangkan orang yang menyebalkan

5. berpikir untuk beli sepatu dan tas nine west

6. dilema mau beli sepatu dan tas ato beli rok di cotton on *yak jauh bener ya*

7. bener2 dilema

8. berpikir nanti aja di jawab minggu depan. semua jawaban ada di minggu depan.

9. berpikir that I always have a thing for Freo. I always do

So, what had happened last week?

My graduation day !

Akhirnya jadi lulus juga *hehehehehe*, so yeah my parents and grandmum dateng for a week trus si mama heboh masak nasi kuning *yang ga pake bumbu jadi apapun, smua bahan dasar tersedia disini dgn penuh perjuangan nyarinya tentu *, heboh makan2 sama tante2 dan om2 kenalan papa mama. Si yosi dateng for a week juga, tapi ntar malem dia bakal balik lg ke sidney. Seminggu bener2 ga kerasa ya, cepet banget gitu, a week feels like 2 seconds for me. Oh ya, hi papa dan mama yang ternyata juga pembaca blog ini *wadoooww* hahahuahauhauhauhauhauha.
