Tindakan-tindakan dan pikiran-pikiran radikal

Hayo gimana kalo saya :

1. pindah jurusan jadi Master of Biochemical engineering BY RESEARCH next semester karna marketing uda ga ada gregetnya.

2. dipinang sama bule alaska gara2 saya ga suka summer.

3. ternyata adalah putri kerajaan cina yang nyamar jadi orang biasa.

4. ternyata miliuner yang cuman pura2 kerja jadi rakyat jelata biar tau orang mana yang baek dan jahat di dunia nyata.

5. Saking terlalu muaknya sama current manager saya, saya beli starbucks trus semua kafe di perth saya beli dan diganti sama starbucks biar itu manager tau rasa.

6. secara random terpilih jadi the next CEO nya Singapore airlines karna saya cinta mati sama airline itu.

7. secara tiba2 di refer sama lecturer saya jadi chief marketing nya tourism UK trus pindah ke London, nyetir Lexus yang bisa parkir pararel sendiri, pake Coldplay jadi spokeperson nya tourism UK, punya rumah di sebelah Beckingham - rumahnya vicbec - trus tuker2an Hermes sama dia.

Indahnya berkhayal.

the fear

There are 2 things that scared the hell out of me. First is onion, any kind of onions, the smell of it, the skin of onions and even the onion flavour. I don't touch, smell and eat onion. Call me freak and I don't care. Second one is going back to my hometown, no no no, not that I'm scared with my parents whatsoever, I love them VERY MUCH. It's just the people around them and me that annoyed me so much and guess one topic they chose to talk about when they met me.
.
.
.
.
MY WEIGHT.
.
.
.
.
Yes, I do HATE people commenting about my weight. I know I did gain weight, a lot and people LOVED to tease me about it. Everybody, every single person I know in my hometown loved to share their comments about MY -damn it's not ur business- WEIGHT. The newspaper kiosk girl next to my house COMMENTED on my weight, my dad's work colleagues COMMENTED on my weight, my highschool friends teased me, my junior highschool friends teased me, my ex-teacher in junior highschool commented on how fat i was, my neighbours told me to diet, my extended family told me to diet and told my parents to stop sending me money so that I could not eat *well yeah it was that sarcastic* . Well, the positive thing is I was that popular *gagagaga* but I don't need everybody's talking about my weight as if there were no other interesting topics to talk about. I'm sick of them and that was my main reason for not going back to my hometown for almost 2 years ( there WERE other million reasons but that was my main consideration).

I guess being SKINNY is an essential for girls back in my hometown and my mom, apparently, is a natural skinny woman, and was really afraid of the reality of my weight. All mums are genius as well as mine, so she hired a PRIVATE aerobic instructor esp for me coming to my house three times a week so (hopefully at that time) I would lose some fat and it worked ...... for several months because I didnt bring my private instructor along with me back to Perth:p. It always happened every time I went back to my hometown, lost weight in Indo, gained another kilos in Perth.

Almost all Indonesians who went abroad for studying will gain weight, because of (might be) the culture shock, the food varieties, the weather or (mostly) the happiness of living independently :p. However, one thing for sure, these bodies will be back to its normal weight after couple years living in wherever they live ( this is what they call the process of adapting). Based on that theory, I supposed not to do anything to lose weight, but I tried some diet methods, cut my carbs, didnt eat this, didnt eat that,
My prayers were almost all about losing weight and I just realised how stupid I was, but the thing is I didn't enjoy my life ! I love carbs ( I can only eat rice with any crackers, mum, u know this habit!), I love milk and dairy products. So, starting from last year I ignored those stupid comments and start enjoying life, having carbs for my dinner, drinking milk everyday.

That is why I didnt go back indo last year, I prefer to enjoy my holiday with my sister in sydney and still eating big meals 3x a day without any complaints hahaha but not gaining weight ( the theory worked !). But this year, I will go home for less than 2 weeks and that fear started to crawl into my brain, in short, i can say that I'm a bit traumatic going home, or sort of and that sounds stupid.

wish me luck this time and wait for my next post about my holiday this year !

NB:
my weight when I was first coming to Perth: 43 kg
my current weight: 47 kg --> working + uni = losing ur weight

Selama hampir 4 tahun tinggal disini, ada donk namanya perubahan apalagi perubahan di dalam dapur alias memasak. Dulu pas di sby, wuih jangan bilang masak, masuk dapur aja emoh emoh jijay berbawang gitu trus gimana gittuuuu iyeek lah pokoknya. Sampe sini, setaun pertama juga engga nyentuh dapur khan ada cece kos yg masakin enak dah pokoknya. Trus sejak pindah rumah sendiri, terpaksa harus masak.

8. Ayam goreng sweet chilli - makanan sukaanya jon, di ajarin jon juga hahahhahaha
9. jus tomat - biarin week hahahaha
10. Sup ayam - isinya cuman swirilan ayam, wortel, erten dan kuah dari chicken stock hehehehe

12. Spageti versi mama - cuman bisa makan spageti versi mama hehehe fussy eater saya.
13. Krupuk - ini tinggal di goreng sih tapi butuh skill lho nggoreng dan angkat krupuk biar ga gosong hehehhe satu rumah cuman aku yg punya skill goreng krupuk *bangga parah* tapi ga penting sih tapi aku paling doyan lho makan nasi sama krupuk tok. parah jadi pengen sekarang
14. Terang bulan ato martabak manis. Ini penemuan paling hebat wendy !

Weeetss 12 lho hahahaha tapi aduuh ampun deh kalo soal bikin2 makanan mending bikin media release aja *eits ga juga ding*, paling ga napsu kalo liat dapur dan masak ! indomi masih enak kok. Semua ini berkat mama saya yang sabar melihat saya memasak dengan kaco. Semoga list ini nambah jadi banyak setelah beberapa taun lagi waa aku mau suami koki ajaa

oh well, i'm not complaining but it's gonna be 4 degr. tomorrow

I know, I should not be complaining when the weather is really cold *referring to all my complaints when it's summer*

but it's really really cold eventhough you wear like 2 cardies, 1 coat and boots on your feet. Maybe it's too much but it is freezing and it's gonna be 4 degrees minimum for tomorrow and another 3 days.

I still love you winter no matter how cold you are.

hari malas sedunia

Setelah 12 minggu belajar dan bekerja terus, udah ga pernah tidur siang, dikejar2 deadline assignments, tests, group meeting dan kerja dobel minggu ini karna bu manajer sakit, akhirnya tadi bisa tidur siang ! Terima kasih Tuhan.

Kronologi kemalesan:

Sat/ 10-11pm: udah ga inget, nonton Bruce Almighty di TV trus ketiduran hahaha.

Sun/ 9am: bangun *terpaksa*, dipaksa Jon ke gereja Joachim misa 9.30 - maunya 11am mass (Jon mo maen tennis jam 3 sore, karna kita mo jalan2 ke Freo mesti brkt pagian takutnya keramean ngantre ramennya)

9.30-10.30 am: Sunday mass di St. Joachim bersama Jon, Audrey, Andre, Evan *buluyung*.

10.32 am: Udah di rumah *hahaha secara gereja tetanggaan*, langsung manasin 2 pizza left over kmrn malem, si Jon langsung tancep makan 1 dingin2 gitu parah. Si Odri bikin cheese platter, ambil 3 *ga tanggung2*.

11.00 am: Jalan ke Freo

11.20ish am: Sambil kedinginan jalan ke Freo market, ngantre ramen - nunggu stg jam, ketemu tante temen papa, muter2 ngabisin waktu, bli kripik kentang dicemilin sambil muter2 freo market. Laper berat + kedinginan situasi dan kondisinya.

12.00 pm: Teng! di sms sama mba2 ramen, asiik udah dpt tempat. Enak dingin2 makan crispy chicken ramen gitu tapi seperti biasa porsi jumbonya ga pernah abis kalo makan sendirian, akhirnya di serah pindahkan jabatan mangkok itu ke Jon tapi dia juga cuman bisa abis chickennya doank. Oh ya, aku pernah ngepost juga ttg freo market. bisa dibaca disini

12.30ish - 1.30is pm: bingung mo kemana,rencana awal Jon bli donak menggiurkan di marketn trus lanjut makan San Churro *parah ga kita* tapi kita udah kekenyangan parah dan aku berasa ngantuk banget. Akhirnya muter2 doank masuk keluar toko trus ke bookshop yg vintage itu di High St dan sangat enak sofanya buat tidur. Bisa lho aku tidur 5 menitan di situ hahahaha. Ternyata oh ternyata Jon juga berasa ngantuk banget dan di putuskan buat pulang aja, ke rumah Jon dulu ganti baju dia.

3.00 pm: Dianterin Jon pulang rumah, langsung cuci kaki blah blah tancep tidur.

6.15ish pm: Di telpon Jon ! gara2 itu aku bangun hiks hiks pdhl masih pengen tidur *maruk*

7.oo pm: Makan 2 pizza terakhir sambil nunggu odri pake dapur *gantian*

8.00 pm: Goreng SPAM, siapin bekal buat besok kerja. Makan nasi sama SPAM yg td digoreng.
oh ya, bekalnya nasi sama semur daging masakan stock mama hahaha.

8.15 pm: mandi

8.35 pm: at this point of time. Saya sudah ngantuuuk lagi. begimana ini kalo gendut - nyalahin winter jadi pengen makan terus.
