2011

2012-01-01T00:05:00.002+08:00

Has been a great year for me.

It has brought me a new car, a fiancee, and a new house. I was kinda letting my life flowing this year and of course, 2011 has been treating me so well :) and am looking forward to another great year ahead.

I'm spending NYE at home, sitting alone now in front of the TV. I had a NYE party but then went home exactly 1 hour before the countdown, I am too tired today with all the errands but somehow am happy and blessed to be at my home on NYE counting my blessings that God gave to me this year.

Have a blessed Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year.

Did I just say I love shoes?

2011-12-14T01:23:00.003+08:00

I'm a big sucker in resisting gorgeous shoes, I already bought my wedding shoes, two pairs to be exact with different colours and models.

Mom was a bit annoyed with the fact that I'm gonna wear blue shoes on my wedding day, well, you can't really see them, can you? they're hiding under the dress anyway, right? so I bought a pair of off-white cutie from ebay (I won't reveal it until the D-day, but a hint is, it's a UK & USA edition only aaaand it's not your usual white wedding shoes with diamantes) and a pair of blue (I love BLUE that much). So there you go, it's a win win situation for her and me :) It's still my wedding after all, is it?

Will update with more gorgeous wedding shoes if I found more of them online :) wouldn't it be awesome if I could change my shoes every hour on my wedding day? Just to let everyone know that I love my shoes beside my husband? *big grin*

A princess has to wear the perfect shoes, doesn't she?

What I'm best at.

2011-12-14T00:17:00.002+08:00

Gosh, how long i've been neglecting this blog and how long ive been longing to write? sigh ... I blame .... err .. err my daily routine aka work, go home, cleaning, more cleaning, ironing, choir, meetings, and sleep.

I don't even know what I've been doing so far, what I remember was these past 2 months just happened too fast for me. I even managed to go back to my lovely hometown, to J town and Singapore in just 4 days and managed to assemble all furniture in just a couple of weeks, moving in just a week and so on and so on.

Okay, maybe I need to sum up what happened in October and November.

What I clearly remember is purchasing and assembling furniture is absolutely not as easy as flipping your hand. As first time furniture buyers, it took us numerous visits to Ikea and other furniture shops and electronic shops as well ! To make things worse is, shops in Australia close at 5.30 - 6 pm daily except on Thursday nite when they have late night shopping until 9pm, which is not suitable for our situation because we work full time hours. Big SIGH. Tell me about last minute furniture shopping rush and furniture confusion, been there done that.

And what happened after purchasing those lovely furnitures? Of course in here, you have to assemble them by yourself. Now, don't even think we bought a huge ass house, nope, it's small lovely 3 bedroom unit, pretty small for an Australian house. We don't have a theatre room, a separate living and dining room, just a simple 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, a single living room house after all but it took us weeks to assemble a couch, 2 bed frames, a tv unit, a dining table, and don't even mention the cleaning part which involved washing the new dishes, cutleries, mopping and vacuuming.

I seriously thought I lost 10 kgs just by doing that every night, straight after work for 4-5 hours without dinner. But, no I didn't lose any kilos. another big SIGH.

Then I managed to have a quick weekend gateway to hometown, the capital city and Singapore, for a total of 4 cities in 5 days. With 5 flights, 2 delays, lack of sleeps, 40 kgs baggage, I am somehow amazed by my immunity system. Good thing was, Mum was with me :) for 17 days to help me moving in, also to fill in my kitchen cabinets full of cooking gadgets and homemade meals every single day prepared with love. Oh how I missed my mom's delicacies.

Starting from that month, cleaning and furniture shopping has never really ended. Plus the "unpacking from my previous house" part which also never ends. Lucky him, as he hasn't moved in yet, he has plenty of time to move his stuff one by one and he doesnt any due date to pack his stuff as twas his parents house.

So yeah, that's what life's been treating me for last 2 months, plus the ICYO's events, meetings, friends birthday dinners, farewells, and this month is the work's busiest month so I think there are too many things happening around me.

Summary in 4 words: I'm broke & I'm tired. Broke from buying those endless house-related stuff plus the bills and tired from my daily routine.

I wish 2012 would give me a chance to do what I am best at. BEING A PRINCESS. those beauty sleeps and shoe shopping.

terobsesi

2011-09-26T22:29:00.003+08:00

merampingkan badan.

Rasanya kok angka timbangan badan lama2 semakin ke kanan yak, ini harus harus kurus at least 1 kg setiap minggu. Dengan cara, makan makanan rumah siang malem (iyap!), setelah pindah kerja baru ini jadi males makan malem dirumah dengan alasan yang valid yaitu pulangnya lebih malem bok secara perjalanannya aja stg jam (ngook) sampe rumah udah males tingkat dewa buat masak dan ujung2nya makan di luar yang tentunya bikin saya gendot.

Ke toko furniture.

Sampe udah hafal sama harga sofa di semua toko (ehmm lebay), sampe tau daerah mana yang paling banyak jual furniture (alias deket rumah saya, duh! dodol emang). Ngeliat harga bed frame yang di diskon rasanya lebih seneng daripada liat Salvatore Ferragamo sale 80%. Freaky moments yaitu bisa aja loh ke toko 15 menit sebelom dia tutup dan bisa memilih 1 sofa, 1 tv unit and 2 bed frame yang disuka tpi ga sempet bli sih. tapi tapi tapi 15 menit bok, juara effortnya.

Style me pretty website.

Been my very good bff so far. Banyak banget terinspirasi dari sana. Asiknya perayaan tanpa tante tante mulut tajam hati beku, nyemplung aje ke laut kalian hehehe.

Sepatu nude itu.

Yang pas banget sama kaki saya. Cantik manis simple. DISKON PULA !!!! mestinya ga usah bilang yaaak sama si abang, langsung aja bungkus. sekarang kepikiran siang malem sampe gelisah tidurnya (lebay lagi).

Why it is so hard

2011-09-05T20:32:00.002+08:00

To find the perfect wedding dress?? *arrrrrgh pake daster bali aja apa*

To find the perfect souvenir???

To find the perfect decoration ??

To find the perfect husband *looh*??

aku tak tau aku mau apaaaa *sudahhampirgila*

you know who you are.

2011-09-05T20:04:00.002+08:00

Happy father's day to you.

Thank you for your hard work, for being a good husband and for your love to us.

Tuhan, sampaikan sejuta sayangku untuknya.

Dari Cindy Monica.

Jadi, award ini ada rulesnya juga ternyata, dapat dilihat sebagai berikut:

Setiap orang yang ditag harus juga mem-posting tentang 10 hal mengenai diri mereka masing-masing;

Harus memilih 5 orang yang akan ditag;

Kunjungi blog mereka dan beritahu mereka kalau mereka sudah ditag oleh kita;

Jangan tag balik atau jangan tag orang yang sudah memberikan postingan ini sebelumnya kepada kamu

Hihihihihi norak ga pernah dapet beginian.

Baeklah mari saya kerjakan:

10. Phobia bawang. Takut bawang. Ga suka bawang. whatever it is, pokoknya engga mau deket2 bawang. titik. saya engga pernah pegang bawang apapun itu merah, putih, bombay lah. ANTI BAWANG. jangankan makan, berdiri di sebelahnya aja ogah, makanya pasar sayur basah dan dapur basah indo adalah musuh utama saya.

9. Dua hal yang paling menyenangkan di dalam hidup wendy adalah tidur dan belanja. Andaikan hidup ini cuman dibagi 2, tidur 12 jam dan belanja 12 jam pasti semua orang akan bahagia. Btw, rekor tidur paling lama adalah 14 jam ! dan rekor engga tidur paling lama (bener2 melek ga pake tidur blas) adalah 36 jam gara2 bikin 3 assignments yang duenya di hari yang sama dan baru start itu assignments dalam 36 jam itu jugak.

8. Baru nyadar kalo saya ini brand loyalty nya sangat tinggi, contohnya pake body shop dari smp ya udah sampe skrg itu sabun cuci muka masi tetep pake body shop dan embel2nya pake body shop juga ato sepatu and tas paling suka sama charles and keith, tiap kali pulang indo ato singapore selalu bli barangnya, kalo ga beli ga afdol dan tentunya masih banyak merek2 yang laen.

7. Di dalam hati yang paling dalam tersembunyi engga keliatan, saya amat sangat parah punya passion jadi event organiser.

6. Dan masih di dalam hati yang dalam tersembunyi itu juga, saya juga punya passion tentang sejarah. Dulu hampir banget mo jadi antropologi ato jadi ahli sejarah, sumpah dulu kalo ulangan sejarah paling niat belajarnya. Karna tanpa sejarah, kita engga mungkin ada di dalam situasi kayak gini jadi kita harus menghargai sejarah (ciyeeh). Cuman mimpi itu punah hancur berantakan gara2 takut sendiri di kejar mummi kalo kerja gara2 nonton movie the mummy.

5. Panikan dan emosional. Kata Mr J, orangnya keliatan kalo lagi stres, seneng, sedih, banyak pikiran. Langsung berubah auranya dalam sepersekian detik.

6. Pekerjaan rumah tangga yang paling di gemari adalah nyetrika, waktu kecil sempet punya pikiran buka usaha setrika baju orang (dengan charge Rp 5000 per baju). Karna setiap habis setrika itu feelingnya tenang dan damai, bajunya licin rapi wangi. Tidurpun jadi nyenyak aman tentram *loh*

5.Engga suka make-up'an tapi suka beli alat make up. Ya udah dibeli aja gitu. haha. eh ga lucu yak. maksudnya disimpen aja gitu, dipake paling juga setaun 4-5 kali kalo ada kondangan.

4. Engga sabaran. Grasak grusuk. Harus on time. Engga tau harus bangga ato harus sedih sama yang satu ini.

3. Selalu senang kalo diajak kesini: Ikea, Singapur, airports, toko make up, department store dan kafe lucu seperti the imp ato kafe di nedlands yang lupa namanya apa. Hmm, sekarang ngebayangin aja bisa senyum2 sendiri. hihihi.

2. If I had to choose where I live. London is the absolute answer.

1. I love babies and toddlers. I can't stand their cuteness and tiny figures.

--Lah soal nge tag, silahkan menge'tag diri anda sendiri-- haha

sumpah serapah.

Wendy apa kabar?

Baik baik aja kok.

BOONG abis !

kabar saya? sumpek, butek, abu-abu, banyak pikiran.

Kalo ada yang nyenggol saya di shopping mall nih, bisa langsung disemprot pake marah.

Inget khan sama kerjaan saya yang kaya sampahnya India, lah bayangin sekarang itu sampah dicampur tai sama muntahan dari semua negara slums. Yaak begitu, ancur khan ? pengen muntah ga sekarang? ya begitu saya kalo mau kerja tiap hari, pengen muntah darah.

Intinya nih, sekarang kerja cuman gara2 teamnya asik. udah.

Pertama, itu management gonta ganti terus. dan yang terakhir ini, masak mereka mau bikin new agreement yang dimana setiap hari kamis kita harus kerja 12 jam dan setiap hari sabtu. Liburnya hari senin dan selasa tapi kerja dari rabu - sabtu. NON NEGOTIABLE. TAIK khan? dengan iming2 gaji naek, yang notabene nya boong abis secara kalo diatas jam 6 dan weekend loading itu emang ada penalty ratenya yang bikin kita digaji lebih tinggi. GOBLOK ABIS KHAN YANG PERCAYA GITU ?? Dia pikir kita kagak punya social life ya? kagak punya temen? kagak punya kepentingan laen selaen kerja?

Terus lagi, ini state ngasih base rate nya yang paling rendah di seluruh australi. DOBEL SIAL. kenapa sik kenapa pake di beda2in?? curang abis kalo kerja di eastern state secara otomatis langsung tinggi itu rate. NAJIS. DOBEL NAJIS. Pengen tabok2 itu state government.

Eits masik ada lagi, itu target dinaekin jadi 20 connections per staff tiap minggu. TAIK nenek moyang lu ya? kali'in aja tuh team kita ada 3 nih, jadi mesti bikin 60 connex tiap minggu? bisa bikin 20 connex per minggu aja sembah sujud syukur ama Tuhan tauk lah ini bikin 60 connex? MAKAN AJA TUH TAIK.

Trus kita satu state marah dong, enak aje lu pikir kita buruh apa. Sampe telpon ombudsman segala, buka2 fair work australia dll lah. Lah itu bosnya kagak suka, gara2 reaksi kita ga seperti yang dia mau, aneh khan ya? Trus mulai lah dia cari2 alesan aneh buat kita tanda tangan itu new agreement, hasilnya 2 orang udah dipecat aja loh dengan alesan mereka ga sesuai standart kerja perusahaan ini. Dan 2 orang ini yang telpon ombudsman dll.

Saya sih? engga takut, kerjaan baru? udah dapet kok, udah tanda tangan kontrak. Pokoknya nanti hari terakhir saya disini, semua password bakal saya bawa hapus, semua prosedur bakal saya bakal pulang, semua form saya sobek2 trus buang di tong sampah yang jauh. Secara yang tau semua prosedur n password adalah saya. Stock bakal saya pindah pindah, semua folder bakal saya pindah pindah tempatnya. Dan yang paling penting, itu folder password dan semua bookmark sistem di komputer akan hilang as I leave. Sweet revenge.

Tapi kenapa masi sebel?

Masalah klasik, no appreciation at all dan rasisnya bukan maen. Saya benci banget sama itu area manager semoga dipecat aja. Kerja disitu makan ati dari semua faktor, management nya dan customernya. Yang bikin bertahan cuman teamnya yang asik. Udah. sisanya TAIK semua.

Jadi mikir ga sih, fair work situation itu kayak apaan sih?

HAPPY 22ND BIRTHDAY !!!!

2011-06-26T21:52:00.004+08:00

MY NOT SO LITTLE SISTER.

Can't wait to uyeluyel you when you are here.

For the joy of electric blanket and hot water.

2011-06-24T23:43:00.002+08:00

Let us take a silent moment for whoever invented those 2 most important things in winter.

Salute.

And it ends with.

2011-06-21T15:33:00.003+08:00

It all started with me being upset with the service of a bank in a shopping centre, then I got thirsty and decided to get bubble tea in the other wing of that shopping centre.

Which was a bad decision, because *drumrolls*

SALE are everywhere, End of Financial Year Sale, End of Season sale, Winter sale, ARGHK !

My brain cells seemed like popping out from my head screaming it's 50% off GO THERE!, No, go to Myer, 70% off and kept going on like that. As you all know, brain is the part of human body that controls every single thing. So, there I was, checking every store that I passed by.

Who can resist this cutie pie flat for only $10 ? and the pyjamas short for $5? and the list goes on and on.

but at the end, I'm a happy girl again, $65 for 5 items, so proud of myself that I wasn't going nuts for more shopping.

Not yet

2011-06-21T15:26:00.004+08:00

It's a big relief knowing that your most expensive shoes ever is still hanging on the non sale items at that shoe store. I know for sure that I will be heart broken once they put up the sale sign, it will obviously blow my mind.

ps: no, it's not a pair of louboutin or manolo's or any branded shoes. My shoes are not even half the price of those branded shoes.

I'm not that rich. yet.

Note to self.

2011-06-20T23:25:00.006+08:00

Pre-approval home loan.

Rubber car mats.

Getting thai massage.

New jeans.

Home open.

A dress.

and the matching shoes.

and the matching clutch.

Pre-approval home loan.

Home open.

Ikea magazine.

Getting mature.

And suddenly all my top priorities are totally changed, then note to self that it is time for the next step of life.

do'h.

The notion of my world

2011-06-17T15:47:00.001+08:00

Depends on my coffee that week.

I *just* realised that I have been a very bad tempered this couple weeks, with no valid reasons. My workmates all said they've never seen me this mad, I yelled back at customers if they yelled at me, I told customers off if they were rude, I sent a complaint letter to my car dealer, I called up automotive ombudsman, I just was UPSET about something.

I was like, wow, something's really eating my soul.

Then, I realised something,I have been drinking instant coffee in the morning, in a stereofoam cup.

The reasons behind that, my good barista had left a nearby cafe where I work and the new barista just messed up my usual coffee and it's always been raining last couple weeks so I couldn't walk to the coffee strip where I can get my other good coffee.

Yes, you can imagine the mighty power of coffee.

dear motherfucker,

2011-06-15T23:10:00.001+08:00

mind your own shit.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Me.

becoming me.

2011-06-13T22:18:00.002+08:00

So, tomorrow is the day. No, nope, not that day, yet.

It's the day to trade my old car with a new one.

Getzy is my first "own" car, dad bought her second hand 3,5 years ago just right before I graduated from my uni and I'm totally getting sentimental over letting her go tomorrow. I grew up on her, learned how to park with her, got my Australian license with her, proudly took most of friends around with her, and the list keeps going on and on.

Then I sat back and had a really deep thought how 3,5 years just gone that fast.

I am now pondering on where my life is going. I've arrived in an empty road in my life where I have to realise that I haven't really accomplished most what I once set out to do. I will officially be in the mid twenties club next year and just to tell you the truth I am not making six figures in my current job and I am not working in a big multinational corporation. I must be mindful how I spend my money and figure out how to survive if I actually take home loan one day. I often ask myself when will my dream come true. Sometimes I get a little depressed then a little wave of sadness washes over me, I mean, I'm not completed soaked over but also not letting me fully dry out. Sometimes I feel like I have failed while fighting back the tears because I am afraid that my train had left a long time ago and won't be coming back for me.

But, I refuse to feel sorry for myself. I refuse to live in regret because even though I feel like having to take a detour in my life, I have met so many amazing people in my life who taught me so much and those memories will never disappear. I know I feel a little bit sad now but I am hoping so much that the best is yet to come in my life.

For now, I am still working on becoming who I am.

Warning: DO NOT LAUGH

2011-06-06T00:30:00.002+08:00

Ehm.Ehm.

Remember this post?

Was posted by a 21 old me. Waktu masik ababil. dunia masih terang, semua masih indah, hidup masi dibawah ketek bokap.

Gara2 terlalu banyak ngurusin wedding, sekarang jadi tau semua tetek bengek ngurusin wedding, yang sumpah, duit udah kaya aer keran bocor.

Daaan, saya merasa list yang udah saya tulis itu terlalu princess. Berasa royal wedding aja, sok banyak duit.

Sekarang? Maunya sih kalo married nanti, masih nanti kok, masih di angan angan awan sono,

yang simple aja, ga pake ribet, kasian EO nya nanti.

Yang kata si abang, kalo Mcd ada wedding package, merit disitu aja (yang untung buanget mereka ga punya). haha.

Becanda kok (sebelum di timpuk mami)

Yang di undang udahlah max 100 orang aja, ga pake tante-tante om-om, temen2 aja yang sering ngobrol dan kenal. maap yak tapinya mereka tiap kali ada di kawinan temen2 saya, annoying buanget, yang satu lagi speech yang mereka ngobrol cekikikan, yang makanan keluar lama ngomel aja dibuat gosip. duh.

Terus saya mau pas di gereja harus sakral, itu yang paling penting, pesta mah cuman 5 jam abis itu selesai, lah nikah khan seumur hidup, jadi pas janji di depan Tuhan harus sakral dong dan doa dari yang dateng itu yang paling menyuport pernikahan.

Plus, saya ga percaya harus cari tanggal baik jam baik. Semua hari dan jam diciptakan untuk jadi yang terbaik oleh Tuhan, ga usah repot2 cari jam sama hari. Ada salah satu temen yang ribetnya bukan maen terikat sama jam. Ga boleh ketemu sebelum jam segini, misa harus mulai jam segini, merit harus tanggal segini. Ribet beribet ampun deh.

Gampang dan simple khan. hehehe. Mending duitnya di buat jalanjalan soalnya saya mo honeymoon 3x. hahaha. Ke jepang 2 minggu, ke eropa 4 minggu dan ke USA 2 minggu. hahahahahahaha.

ps: si kecil tetep harus main dan wedding saya boleh simple tapi harus unik dan berbau biru.

Ehm.

2011-06-05T23:57:00.003+08:00

Sunday (Long weekend day 3)

2011-05-11T23:41:00.000+08:00

Another Easter Sunday mass at usual place and we got KFC for our lunch. It was one massive order, 10 pieces chicks, 2 large chips and 1 "the famous" double burger ( it's a burger but instead of using buns, the used 2 breast chicken for buns).

See, how greedy we were? I could only eat 1 piece of chicken, lots of chips and half of the burger and I could also hear my tummy kept screaming for more chicken esp its skins but then my brain told me it was just my lust for the chicken. So I stopped my hands digging for more chicken on the box but instead, I licked my oily finger and be satisfied. It was one of the best feelings in the world.

And the story continued for our dinner. I had a farewell dinner appointment with my dearly friend, who returned to Indonesia the day after. Since it was public holiday and dearly Perth, as you know, is a dullsville so all good restaurants were (of course) closed, but then I remember about Grill'd, my favourite burger bar in Mt. Lawley and magically, they opened! She's never been there before, so it was all perfectly planned by God.

Because me and Mr J were still feeling full (damn you chickens !) we decided to order one burger and share it (but we of course still ordered large chips)

Oh, that night, me and best buddies planned to surprise Cindy, my dearly housemate and it was a big success. She was shocked, as we planned (: and I had a half piece of choc-strawberry cake, one small midnight munch.

Indulged myself with those oily junk food chicken and the beef burger with a pale ale.

one big happy tummy.

Saturday Vigil ( Long weekend day 2)

2011-05-11T23:30:00.003+08:00

I spent the day with working ! sigh, retail sucked, but the good thing was the system was down that day haha so I closed up early hehehe. Rushing to get home, showered, got ready for 6pm mass at North Fremantle parish (from Bentley) but managed to get there just before 6pm.

Indulged myself with Chinese food feast. appetite level - normal.

The very long weekend

2011-05-11T22:55:00.002+08:00

Oh well, that was ages ago, Australia had a very long weekend from Good Friday till the next Tuesday.

What did I do for the long weekend? Indulging myself in good food haha.

Oh, Hi blog !

2011-04-14T00:12:00.002+08:00

Hamper lupak kalo punya blog ! haha.

Gimana liburan ? seneng ga? seneeeng kook hehe.

SIngapore. Menyenangkan as usual dan murah, mana disaat kita kesana A$ lumayan tinggi jadi lumayan berasa "agak" jadi orang kaya. Makanan cuman less than s$6 per meal, jadi kalo makan mahal menurut orang Singapore kayak s$20an gitu menurut kita muraah banget secara disini makan A$10 aja udah murah hahaha. Tapi tapi tapi ga berapa belanja sih, abisan udah napsu menggebu pokoknya mo belanja di sono. Lah kok sampe sana, puter2 kiri kanan ga ada yang menarik yak, menarik sih menarik kalo di pake di Indo/ Spore tapi dibawa pulang sini kok nanti jadinya norak trus abis gni winter rugi juga bli baju summer. jadinya bener2 loh cuman bli beberapa brg tok itupun ada yg bli di Cotton On karna udah ngincer dari sini ( secara harga nya sama tapi disono pake dollar Sing, ya wes pasti lbh murah yah to yah to?)

Surabaya. As usual jugak, makanannya surga, dirumah kayak ratu, bangun tidur ada makanan, pergi kemanapun nyemil jalan terus. Plus lebih murah lagi lah kursnya di Indonesia. Asik yah makanan di Indo, gurame goreng, bakar, asem manis, dll dll dll. Hasilnya naek beberapa kilo dalam waktu satu minggu. Ngoook. tapi langsung turun lagi sih begitu balik sini. kasian perutku dikasi makan enak2 eh sampe sini balik lagi kurang gizi dah.

Habis liburan, langsung tancep non stop kerjaan dari icyo lah, kerja juga bagaikan tsunami menghadang hidupku ga pake napas.

yeay

2011-02-20T00:42:00.002+08:00

weekly wrap

2011-02-20T00:09:00.004+08:00

Saya merasa blog ini tambah suram, maka dari itu saya berjanji tidak akan menyuramkan kehidupan anda lagi dgn suramnya blog ini.

Dimulai dari minggu ini, yang notabene ada minggu valentine.

Kita? engga ngapa2en intinya.

Hari senin yang disebut-sebut orang sebagai Valentine's day, Mr J kerja dong tetep, saya day off tapi jalan2 sendiri sama temen yg dateng dr indo. Malemnya choir tetep jalan, just another day for us.

Sisa hari2 berikutnya seperti biasa saja.

Eh, Rabu sempet dating sih, niatnya mau nyobain spaghi restaurant tapi antrenya panjang jadinya pindah ke sebastian's deh di victoria park (huhuhu bolak balik bentley - applex - vic park), makanannya average banget deh mahal pulak. Abis itu nonton No string's attached, dan film ini jugak rada ga di recommend abisan standard banget bahkan Mr J tidur ditengah2 filem haha.

Okeh, makanan di bawah ini adalah menu hari Jumat kemarin yang dihabiskan saja di rumah. Yeah homemade chicken cordon bleu with vegies and chips and cheese sauce, turned out to be superb ! (YEAY !)

Lalu hari ini, kita nge date lagi dong, ga perlu valentine kita udah pasti ngedate terus hahaha. So, dinner kali ini we tried The Quarter on Hay, got a $50 coupon from Scoopon for 3 course dinner for 2 with tasting plate as entree, main with side, dessert and wine. I know, what a bargain. We quite liked the ambience here, thats why we decided to try it.

Turned out the food was really bad and poor service. Firstly, the tasting plate was cucumber puree and smoked salmon soup, beetroot with goat cheese and candied walnuts and crab balls ( 2 out of 10 ). The main menu was served 1 hour later, but they gave our mains for a couple sitting next to us and just gave the plates straight to us without any apologies (the couple already messed up the food, fyi) and same thing happened with our side dish and our mains tasted way below average, I mean, I can cook better than that. The dessert were also average ( I mean, supermarket quality). Oh well, at least we tried it so we know we wont return there again.

After all, togetherness is what matters to us.

Happy weekend all !

Terima kasih Tuhan

Semua akan indah pada waktunya.

Belum, dunia saya belum seindah yang kalian bayangkan, tapi at least satu halangan besar di hidup saya sudah hilang.

Manajer saya yang engga bisa apa apa itu (baca: maen fesbuk all the time, leyeh-leyeh di sofa dan telponan sama temennya) sudah pergi, lebih tepatnya lagi I sacked my manager. Karna saya sudah ga tahan sama kelakuan dia, curhatlah saya sama director company ini (baca: bos gede yang punya company ini seluruh aussie) kayak sok deket aja hehehe emang deket kok sama bos ini. Eh trus, besokannya state manager dateng sambil ngepalin tangannya, dia bilang, KOK BARU BILANG SEKARANG ! trus yah saya bales, lah khan situ yang nge hire dia, harusnya dia qualify dong buat jadi manager and I thought you liked him. Dia jawab khan selama ini beres2 aja, langsung saya sambet YAH IYALAH WONG AKU YANG KERJA SEMUA sambil ngasi bukti2 yang ada dan ngasi sales report dia yang cuman SATU ! Masi inget waktu dia pertama kerja disini, dia sempet liat state sales report terus bilang, wah jadi selama ini kamu no 1 ya di state ini, tapi itu ga bakal lama sih, I"LL BEAT YOUR SALES ! hahahahaha wong dia cuman satu selama ini, saya yah begitu2 aja.

Besokannya di pecat deh dia.

Ya udah lah, too bad, siapa suruh dia begitu.

Baru inget juga selama ini saya pernah menyaksikan 3x orang dipecat langsung, yang pertama manajer lama di cafe tempat aku kerja dulu, karna ya tipe2nya sama males gitu. Yang kedua, sales consultant di company yang dulu, dia ngakunya experience udah banyak tapi malesnya bukan maen. Yang ketiga ya manajer dudul tong kosong nyaring bunyinya itu.

Si bapak akhirnya terbuka juga matanya siapa yang paling beres diantara staff2nya, ya kita ini orang asia. Kerjain semuanya tanpa komplen, langsung beres tanpa ba bi bu, ga banyak minta macem-macem tapi one shot semua jadi.

Wokeeh

Salam sibuk ! *lanjut kerjain paperwork yang sejibun*

Time slips

2011-01-06T16:29:00.002+08:00

When one dream dies, dream another dream

2011-01-01T23:44:00.003+08:00

2010 was full of ups and downs for me, there are lots of love-hate relationships and bittersweet experiences with my job. I've seen many good-byes and welcomes to old and new friends in my life. It was a mixed experience for me, lots of questions and uncertainty but I realise that the most important things for me now are, I am surrounded by friends and family whom I love all the time and I have things that I need. I thank God for taking care of me that much.

As I always do, there will be a list of highlights of my life for 2010:

1. Went to Sydney twice this year. My weekend gateways.
2. Changed to 2 new work places, err I moved to a completely different occupation on April 2010, then moved to another company in July but still doing the same shit.
3. I live by my own financially, I've been through times where I only had steamed rice and fried eggs or dried anchovies for days to save up. Utility bills and insurance payments are my best enemies.
4. I bought an iPhone 4. I never turn back to any other brands.
5. I moved to a new house and got break in on the first night. A nice way to say hello to neighborhood.
6. I had my first business trip, the first time in my life staying in a hotel ALONE and got all my expenses paid by the company. I mean, all expenses.
7. ICYO. self explanation.
8. I play tennis.
9. I got my Master degree, fast track, and on time :) ~~ geez time flies.
(I still remember 2 years ago, arguing with Curtin student adviser to fast track my study because my visa will expire in 18 months and I didnt want to apply for another student visa, thank God it was a good decision)
10. I only bought 1 handbag and 2 new shoes (for work purposes) this year. I need to buy more next year ;p
11. I have a foster child, one small thing that I always want to do before I die.

I can say that I don't have any new year resolutions, I'm bad at doing it so I better just to let my life flow like it always has been. Though I have some things that I wanna get or do in 2011:

1. First thing is get a new and better job and career this year!
2. Be more thankful and be more closer to God. Though it sounds so subjective, but the point is I need to promise myself not to complain about my life and be less selfish. Think of others whose life is less fortunate than myself.
3. Buy a macbook. if I get a new job.

Happy 2011 all !

kaya ? sedih ?

2010-12-30T00:06:00.002+08:00

weetttss engga, saya belom kaya kok.

Cuman engga tau mesti prihatin ato engga ini dolar aussie naek terus, malah parity terus sama US$ hehehhee (tertawa di atas penderitaan orang indo) secara kalo pulang indo sekarang, saya berasa miliuner (super hiperbola) bayangin dong bawa duit $200 ke indo bisa jadi hampir 2 juta. hihihihi berasa jutawan khan?

Christmas edition, part 3

2010-12-27T23:13:00.004+08:00

Boxing day - Sunday 26th December 2010

Boxing day is a day after Christmas day, where all stores, esp big department stores like Myer and David Jones are having big sales on the day.

Mr J woke me up at 4.30 am, cos we wanted to queue up to get David Jones' shopping vouchers (they're giving away $100 something gift cards for the first 50 ppl), 7 of us reached city by 5am and found around 10+ ppl were there already (!). It was pretty chilled and windy before 8am and only 2 of us were jackets, the boys even had to take turns to wear jackets haha !

As we predicted, there were some ppl that cut the queue and we had to argue with the management and some chinese ppl who cant speak english at all that cut the queue (lucky, mr J took photos so we got evidences and an Aussie backed us up). There were so many Chinese ppl queued up and didn't speak english, we even joked that they came here with David Jones visa thats only valid on boxing day hahaha and for seconds, we're confused where we are exactly cos no one speaks english.

After 5 hrs queuing, we got the vouchers but we were so tired and sleepy (some of us didnt sleep at all) and it was full of people, humid and I didn't know what to buy, we even had to queue for the elevator ! Mr J was the only one that shopped yesterday, me? nothing at all, I wasn't in the mood for shopping, I was sleepy, the weather was freaking hot (another 40 deg day), billions of people in 1 small shop, let alone the changing room and cashier. I gave up by 2pm, almost fainted with dehydration and got nothing at all.

Back home at around 3.30 pm, had a quick nap, we and another 2 friends went to church for the sunday mass at 6pm. Me and Mr J decided to have our own xmas dinner in Adelphi house, Hilton but we called up since the afternoon to book a table but turned out that they closed :( and we ended up having dinner in Sizzler haha, we were that hungry and craving for steak but didnt wanna risk if we went to Mt. Lawley or city areas, some restaurants were still closed. We behaved quite well that nite, both of us only had 1 plate of salad before our steak came and 1 plate of dessert each :)

~ And that's the end of my Christmas holiday, unlike others, had to start my work from today O_O ~

Christmas edition, part 2

2010-12-27T22:28:00.004+08:00

Christmas day - Saturday 25th December 2010

Woke up at 8am (blaming the summer sun for waking up too early), called mom and pop, and when I got out from room I stunned for a while looking at the present on my doormat and I knew it for seconds it was from my man :) he just never fails to surprise me esp with his "voucher" for a 60 stress massage at a proper spa place in a high class Perth suburban (he later told me that he pities me, working like a dog n that's his treat) and a perfume gift pack.

I finally "realised" that I was going to church for 11.30 am mass but (again) had to be there 10.45 for choir rehearsal n it was 9.30am, I had to make tiramisu for christmas dinner with friends and was that ready for making breakfast but turned out that I ran out of rice, bread or instant noodle and egg :( well I used the eggs for my tiramisu and that's it !

Oh, everyone say hi to Gwyneth, our former's conductor's baby, who was the star of the day. She is the most quiet baby I've ever met, spent most of her time looking at the choir quietly for the whole mass and "choo chooing" with us, her temporary baby sitters.
Cutest baby alive !

The weather was just worse than yesterday,highest point recorded was 42 deg!
Me and Mr J went home, ready for cooking tonite's festive dinner with Dodo and Panda, it was so hot that even the centralised cooler for my house didn't do much for that evening.

Getting ready for Xmas dinner with ICYO fellas in bongki's house, and we cooked more food there with more sweat haha ! in total, we had 5 huge main dishes and all gone quickly *big grin* continued with 5 different desserts haha ! but twas a good gathering, we all had fun there and I'm so grateful to have ICYO here :)

Christmas edition, part 1

2010-12-27T21:49:00.003+08:00

Christmas Eve - Friday 24th December 2010

Was working the whole day, rushing to get home on time for the Indonesian mass at 7.30pm in Northbridge but we had to be there earlier because another youth group that WAS SUPPOSED to sing that night, canceled their choir few weeks earlier, predictable huh?
and again, ICYO had to take over the responsibility but we (obviously) sang better than their choir haha.

Had also a quick supper after mass with Jon's family in a Vietnamese restaurant nearby and the weather was still as hot as an oven, contradicting European's extreme snowing weather.
Merry Christmas from both of us !

Disclaimer for my previous photo!

2010-12-26T15:07:00.001+08:00

Just realised that I look so fat on that photo, I had to hold my iphone on an angle where everyone captured perfectly in a pretty small space and of course except me that looked like i gained few kilos!

Ps: for my fans out there (hehehehe) i did lose few kilos actually so dont be tricked by that photo :p

So here we are

2010-12-26T07:54:00.000+08:00

Queueing up since 5 am in front of david jones city and arguing with chinese ppl who cant speak english to get the $100 something boxing day voucher.

Have a very wonderful Christmas!

2010-12-24T17:51:00.001+08:00

Happy birthday Jesus!

May us be filled with your love and your mercy and peace throughout the year. May all the people in this world also realise that Christmas is not always about gifts and parties but about the born of our life's saviour.

Bless us again with your love, forgiveness and peace.

I love you Jesus and Mother Mary,

Your sinful child.

all I want for Christmas is a better job.

2010-12-18T19:28:00.001+08:00

Ya Tuhan, maafkan aku yang suka komplen ini tapi besok udah minggu lagi. Masak dari minggu ke sabtu lama banget tp dr sabtu ke minggu cuman napas bentar udah ganti hari.

Nightmare before Christmas

2010-12-16T01:28:00.004+08:00

Biasanya kalo menjelang Christmas gini, hati dan pikiran secara otomatis langsung mengaktifkan alarm liburan dan perasaan senang luar biasa. Baru kali ini, menjelang Christmas yang ada nelangsa, la wong ga libur cuman pas tanggal 25 tok yang libur bahkan tanggal 26 aja harus kerja :( plus kerjanya sampe malem2 terus.

Ya sudahlah, 10 minggu lagi liburan juga kok :) sekarang memang waktunya harus menabung banyak tapi kok pengeluaran ya banyak terus, ya bayar bill lah, mesti ganti cd player mobil, mesti service mobil, trus bentar lagi bayar rego mobil (yang angkanya bikin jleb jleb tabungan).

Hiburan disini adalah choir ICYO dan facetime'an sama Mr J soalnya jarang pacaran, satu pulang malem terus, satunya kalo sabtu bantuin bisnis bonyok, belum lagi kerja hari minggu, untung ada teknologi iphone 4.

Piye tho, kok nasibku nelangsa gini disini.

Sedih dan nelangsa.

Yang lebih tetot lagi

2010-12-11T02:27:00.002+08:00

2010-12-11T02:20:00.002+08:00

My uni friend, my closest uni friend I should say, will tie the knot next year. She excitedly asked me to help her organising her wedding.

I've got another friend who also is also getting married on the same day as her! and the thing is I am also the event organiser for her wedding and it's a big, full day wedding, from dawn to dawn lavish asian wedding.

TETOT ga seh. kenapa kalian berdua merit di tanggal yang sama, kayak engga ada hari laen aja.
awak jadi pusing khan ini.

intinya hidup saya lagi pusing ini, semua aspek lagi ribet bahkan dateng ke pesta kawinan aja ribet.

mari nyemplung swan river aja.

jeritan hati

2010-12-07T19:20:00.002+08:00

I never thought that i would hate my job this much as much as i hate onion.
i thought this would last at least a year but this is not even 6 mths and i truly hate it, physically and mentally and it feels like eating my brain and my soul slowly.

I love the old management that it's breaking 2 asian hearts with the new racist management. I'm an asian, so what?

Sorry job, at least i tried to love you.
lets see what these asians can do to fuck you bastard bosses.

my awesome life :)

2010-12-05T15:00:00.003+08:00

I need to tell you all that I have an awesome life.
I don't know how to measure the awesome-ness of a life, so everything would be based on my experiences and it may be biased :)
I know and experience how the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit and Saint Mary work in my whole entire life. If someone took away my Catholic-ism in my life, I wouldn't be myself.
Because of it, my life is extremely blessed.
I have my family that brought my life to a wonderful world and my parents who took me to different places in this world to experience it.
My life is obviously as beautiful as the world is.
I have a very understanding boyfriend who always acts as my guardian here, you must be angel that God sent to me, did u know that?
Thank you for perfecting my life.
I have friends here that always makes me laugh and shapes my life to be better. Friends in good and bad times.
You guys are my chocolate chips in my cookies.
but I have a terrible job and I truly hate what i'm doing now. and I'm sure God will take me out here as soon as He could.

then my life would turn to a very awesome better life !

Happy Sunday all :)

2010-11-25T00:46:00.002+08:00

I'm confused,
even with myself.
I don't even know whether I need some time with myself first or talk through it with others.
I don't even understand myself.
I just don't get it.

err, I don't know. I'm confused.

I think I need to reboot my brain and my life.

kiri kanan salah

2010-11-24T00:39:00.000+08:00

Engga dijawab salah, dijawab juga tambah salah. Diem2 aja katanya engga punya tanggung jawab yah padahal yang punya tanggung jawab siapa juga.

Disaat2 kayak gini bener2 pengen jadi salah satu orang terkaya didunia yang bisa ngebeli apapun.

dan memecat orang itu.
rasanya pasti menyenangkan.

2010-11-19T00:01:00.003+08:00

is my best Aussie workmate ever !

Hard worker, the best team player u've wish for, reliable, funny, motivating, and always bringing positive attitude to me. I might not have the best job in the world, I'd probably have the worst job ever but I have the best person to work with.

And he won't be there next week and the week after and the week after that and like for good :(

This is heartbreaking for me, it's like breaking up with ur boyfriend, not that I love him it's just weird not seeing him at work and no one that I can rely on, at work I mean.

Hiks.

Ga ada lagi yang sms tiap ari:
coffee?
haha just arrived, waiting for you.
bubble tea? c'mon u want it
anything from coles?
ordering catchoftheday, want any?

hiks.

Ga ada lagi yang bilang:
I'll pick up the phone.
Im bored kill me now
hey check this cool games
that's ok I'll sort these out
so what's for lunch? feel like hans and utopia?
Don't worry wendy, I dont leave u alone, I leave si ganteng with you.

Huwaaaaaaaaaaa T.T

I guess I will cry tomorrow.

Best of luck in the States, lucu, oh and I will miss you. much.

ps: can I keep you on fridge and defrost you when I miss you?

So, just saying

2010-11-18T23:37:00.005+08:00

My dell lappie seems like getting the end of her life, its wifi connection is like having an on-off relationships with my router :( and that's why I prefer using my iphone for browsing esp I mostly browse internet using my work pc during working. I still love ya della it's just please hang in there until I get my Macbook ;p

Booking a hotel in Singapore for my next vacation is just like hell, errr for me at least, I wanna stay in a 3/4 star hotel but cheap rates and close to all amenities O_O and i feel like planning for the USA trip 2012 already! *fingers clicking SQ websites* - poking Dita, Adi, Mr J and Mendi.

It's almost the end of the year and another Christmas and new year celebrations here with the summer heat and working *oh yeah*

Bye-bye Perth ! again

2010-10-27T23:36:00.002+08:00

Only for the weekend though !

e.x.c.i.t.e.d

momski and popski are on their way to Sydney now (read: transiting at Changi airport and eating good food and shopping spree) !

my little baby sister is now an official bachelor of classical music. I must tell my mind that she is NOT that little anymore and arrgh that is a difficult thing to do actually.

Kesengsem

2010-10-27T23:17:00.003+08:00

Tau khan rasanya lagi jatuh cinta sama seseorang, senyum-senyum terus, cekikikan malu2 kalo lagi inget si dia, kalo mau tidur isi doanya semoga dia juga suka aku, kalo mau ketemu deg-degan tiada tara.

LAH itu dia yang wendy rasakan sekarang.

Tiap hari senyum2 liat fotonya, kalo bisa malah dicium2 itu fotonya, jantung berdetak lebih cepat tentunya kalo mau ketemu si dia. Kalo ngelamun eh pasti jatuh2nya mikirin dia lagi.

HAYO siapa dia? Yang bisa menggeser Mr J di hati Wendy *halah* ? Dan bikin Mr J mengalah mundur selangkah dari pikiran saya?

APALAGI kalo bukan *justekjustekjustek* a NEW MACBOOK AIR !!

Nangis mupeng tapi kata Mr J mending Macbook pro aja soalnya kalah hard drive dan lebih mahal $100. Tapi tapi tapiiiii aku sukaaaaaak tipisnya kaya ga kerasa gitu kalo make *loh kayak softex hahaha*

Haduh rasanya kayak lagi mau dipinang 2 lelaki, bingung mau pilih yang mana !

a million of stories

2010-10-21T13:49:00.002+08:00

I miss writing. a proper public relations writing. no grammatical or spelling errors. Oh, I'm not drunk by the way, but I really miss the insanity of writing a proper paper.
Well oh well, I have a million of stories, billions probably to be written but they *obviously* are stuck in my brain waiting to be bombarded into several posts.

Let's just talk about my after uni life although it's kinda plain but I love the fact that I don't need to do any assignments at all ! *clapping*. Another good thing about my plain life is I'm able to plan anything again if you know me or have read my previous posts, you will understand how important it is for me to plan !

I'm a plan person, I plan every single thing and I can't stand an -unplanned- day, that would just drive me absolutely crazy and gregetan. So, here I am, starting to collecting the pieces of my life and yeah I'm ready for my big plan ahead *-_________-* -> it's a wide big smile for your info

Oh another interesting fact of me, I just rejected an employer. Yes, I did reject them. For the first time in my life, even tough it's a good opportunity for me and the money will be good someday but I'm pretty sure I won't be happy doing that. I know I might regret it sometime in the future but my mind kept saying don't take it wendy so for now, no thank you, no matter how much I hate my current job but I'm happy doing it and I know I'm pretty good at it ;p

Well well well see ya on the next posts !

letoy

2010-10-19T22:31:00.002+08:00

Beneran deh, akhir2 ini berasa letoy dan ga ber-immune sama sekali, gampang banget sorethroat dan meriang. Plus weather yang engga konsisten ini, kalo siang panas menyengat kalo malem dingin begitu aja tiap hari sampe bingung kalo pake baju.

apa kabar dunia?

2010-10-16T11:58:00.001+08:00

Apa kabar saya? Capek tapi seneng

Seneng di kelilingi temen2 tiap hari, dengan segala up and down kita yang bareng2 selalu ada kasih di dalemnya.

Kenapa capek?

Tiap hari kerja, pulang langsung lanjut meeting ato choir. Tapi seneng juga retreat ICYO 2010 bisa membuat peserta dan komiti tercengang dan merasa jleb jleb jleb

dan tentunya saya lebih jleb jleb jleb lagi soalnya cuman ikut malam pertama dan hari terakhir karna kerja !! *maunya bolos tapi ntar dipecat gimana donk*

Mundur 2 minggu yang lalu

Saya juga capek banget tapi seneng soalnya ada keluarga disini walaupun lebih sering ditinggal kerja daripada ketemunya dan ngerasa dalem ati Oh gini toh kerja rasanya, engga bisa kaya dulu pas uni kalo ada family dateng yah langsung aja bolos ga pake mikir lagi. Sedih tapi mo gimana lagi, sudah nyemplung ke reality ini ga bisa mundurin waktu khan?

2 minggu yang lalu juga adalah convocation buat my master degree ! yang ternyata saya tidur the whole ceremony hehehhee abisan capek banget khan itu abis kerja trus karna duduk di first 2 rows dan tentunya maju pertama tuh abis itu tancep tidur sampe akhir acara, agak memalukan sih sama kiri kanan tapi bodo amat lah ya udah ngantuk. Foto2 akan meluncur di next post (soalnya ini nulis pake imel)

To be honest, saya bencay kalo lagi day off kerja. Kenapa? Karna day off = hari cuci baju, setrika baju, bersiin kamar, masak2, dan bersih2 yang laen2. dan itu tentu saja menghabiskan waktu 1 hari full yang dimana akhirnya saya bakal kecapekan trus tidur siangnya udah jadi tidur sore yang ga bisa lama2 karna hari senen adalah hari choir jadi jam 7 malem teng udah harus siap berangkat choir.

Itupun belum termasuk masak juga. hayoooh kenapa sih harus makan di kehidupan ini? kenapa ga pake napas aja cukup, secara aku bukan ahli masak yang otaknya langsung tokcer kalo urusan masak. Nyetrika masih jauh leeeeebiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiih enak daripada masak kemana-mana, kalo orang laen benci setrika, cita cita pas aku kecil malah jadi tukang setrika *rendah bener yak*.

Pengen banget pas day off gitu ya jalan jalan, belanja, duduk baca novel ngafe sendirian (beeeh pengen ini udah lama bener dah) ga pake mikirin itu cucian udah beres belum itu kamar udah di vacuum belum. Belum siap neh lahir batin disuru kawin secara cuci baju aja ga beres hahaha ngomel mulu kerjaan.

Tapi abis bangun tidur tadi berasa ya udah lah ya namanya juga lagi sibuk, ntar ga ada kerjaan apa2 ngomel juga ga ngapa2en. Ya udah lah ya cuci baju buanyak khan masi pake mesin cuci belon juga pake tangan lagian itu baju kerja mesti dicuci eniwei khan, ya udahlah ya kalo ga bisa masak masih bisa beli makanan ya ga? ya sudah lah semua di syukuri saja ke Tuhan udah dikasi kesibukan yang bener. hehehehe. Tapi minggu depan boleh belanja ya Tuhan ya? ya ?

as I promised.

After Yosi's final recital, we (mum and I) did her make up and hair in less than 15 mins, massive hair spray and bobby pins involved ;p and tarraaa she turned to a lady like as she's always been a tomboy

This is the railway on Blue Mountain and apparently it's the steepest railway in the world. It was fun riding it thou it only took less than 3 mins to go down and up again. teehee

The whole family with Three Sisters scenery :)

After Yosi's final recital, all were smiling and relieved that it was over.

. About the job .
I love my new job, not new really, i just moved to another company, still on telco industry same job same shit but better people, better commission and closer to home. It just feels better when I wake up on the morning knowing that i am actually loving my work environment and all my workmates. I moved last July, with the help from God knowing that me didnt fit in that corporate environment. He works in a very misterious way, i tell ya. but without working in that company i wouldnt be working where i am now. God knows me too well :)

. About ICYO .
I happen to be the treasurer of icyo now and I was selected to be one of the president candidates ! I was surprised as I thought I didnt have the "Qualifications " to be the leader of the young catholics here but again, God works in a very misterious way, I was sent to Melbourne for work training on the election day and Yeah Carissa is now the president of ICYO. i love all the new members of ICYO, all the fun we have all of these times that reminds me a lot how this organisation took a very important part of my life 4 years ago and how hard it is for me to live without them :)
I love how God is still "choosing" me to work for Him no matter how tired i am everyday or how grumpy i was when it comes to endless ICYO events. Everytime I feel "mad" of how busy i am, i always sit down alone in a cafe and remembering all the good times i had because of serving Him and so far it still works. iloveyouICYO.

. About the family .
I finally met my aunt from dad's side after six years !! bcos she lives in Holland and our holiday schedules just never got matched. I thank God a lot for Yosi's final recital qnd her degree as a classical violist with distinction ! I know exactly how proud i was when she texted me about that and i am sure as well that my parents are really proud of her talent :)
I also thank God a lot bcos my parents support us so much that they come to Aussie 3 times this year once every month just to see me and Yosi graduating. I do really know now how hard it is it earn money and I am really thankful that my parents are still able to afford travelling back and forth from Indonesia.

. About my man .
Yeah , we are still together as usual :) and again when i dig in the old days it is amazing how God works misteriously in introducing him to my life and after these years, i can proudly say that it feels good to have someone that also walks heading to the same pathway and someone that holds your hand all the time. And yes, we are getting more serious for the future *fingercrossed+matakedipkedip*

and yuup that sums up my life these days.

Si Vonni.

2010-09-12T21:46:00.003+08:00

Yup, sebelum cerita di kepala saya berjamur maka marilah saya nulis semua yang sudah pernah saya janjikan.

First story: Meet Vonni, the iphone 4.

Seperti yang dulu sudah diceritakan ttg perjuangan keras mendapatkan si dia (bolak balik ke Apple Store pulang kerja nembus macet dan rebutan parkir plus niat tinggi naek bis menghadang ujan pas day off), plus tragedi si LG udah koma. Semangat nyari Vonni sempet mundur gara2 ya itu susah bener, mo plan ga ada stock, mo bli outright juga ga ada stock.
Sempet sebel banget itu lalu si Jon pas 17 agustusan abis dr nyanyi di konsulat tiba2 udah antre aja di Apple store city sambil telp saya yg lagi kerja. 10 menit kemudian, ada telp lagi dari Jon yang mana itu Vonni udah di tangan ! wohoo 2 thumbs up for my man !

Dan walaupun belinya outright dan sempet nyesek ngeliat nominal tabungan kok tambah ngenes gini. It is worth all the pain and the best $859 I have ever spent.

piye

2010-09-06T23:16:00.002+08:00

Sibuknya. Sudah baca khan last posting ttg sibuk ajubileh itu, ternyata berlanjut sampe detik ini. Ibarat ini lomba lari, garis finishnya masi minggu depan tuh.

Dilanjutken dari itu yak, senen malem pas mo ke sydney ternyata pesawatku di delay mak, satu jam sih tapi perlawanan hebat sama ngantuk itu lho tiada duanya mana udah di tinggal jon soalnya kita pikir bakal on time.The last 3/4 pesawat itu tinggal ke Sydney semua lagi jadinya itu ya udah setengah tidur eh ada halo2 pesawat ke sydney jadi kaget2 gitu yang mana neh pesawat saya. Yak akhirnya setelah pegel2 tidur di pswt (yang bujet yang ga dikasi apa2 jadi kepalanya radak nge gantung gitu pas tidur), saya mendarat juga di erport mana papah tercinta surpres menjemput di sydney airport dan tentunya saya diantara kebelet boker dan ngantuk parah masi setengah ga sadar siapa ini orang panggil2 nama saya.

Yang pasti di sydney terjamin makan pagi siang malam morning tea afternoon tea tapi yah begitu2 aja disono ga ada yg particularly interesting sama aja kaya perth (tokonya bukan buka sampe malemnya). Ya khan, ini tujuannya menyupport Yosi yang mo final recital (yang dimana dia maennya sangat banget bagus ! Yosi you rock !! ) dan nemenin Yosi final ensemble (yang juga dimana dia kepilih recording best of aim students ato apalah itu ga ngerti dan juga dimana saya ga tau ternyata dia udah kepilih tiap trimester dr taun lalu, kakak macam apa aku ini *plak)

Hari terakhir di Sydney kita semua ke Blue Mountain yang bagus ! dan di rekomen kalo turis ke NSW ! Trus ya sudah besokannya balik lagi ke Perth sampe sini juga langsung ke gereja misa sore langsung lagi juga ke acara ultah temen sampe jam 10 malem ! tepar parah.

Minggu lalu juga khan masi ada tante yang jauh2 dateng dari Holland buat ngunjungi Yosi dan saya jadinya ya seminggu juga masi nemenin dia jalan dan makan hehehe. Intinya jadi turis lagi minggu lalu.

Hari ini yang saya kira jadi hari libur !! ternyata bapak bos nyuru kerja >.< sebel ga seeee?? setelah nego nego minta kerja siang saja hahhahahahaa.

Foto2 menyusul di next post ya !

ciaoo dan good nite !

aku kangen Indonesia dan segala hingar bingar pada hari kemerdekaan.

Ok, here's the story

2010-08-13T19:14:00.003+08:00

Khan emang udah lama banget pengen Iphone tuh, tapi nunggu plan yang ini abis. Disaat udah bisa upgrade ke iphone 3gs nih (kira2 bulan Mei akhir), di hari dimana aku mo ke toko 3 buat upgrade eh paginya ada news bahwa bakal ada Iphone 4 release bulan Juli di US dan akhir Juli buat Australia. Ya udahlah aku di suggest kiri kanan buat nunggu yang baru. Di tahan2in tuh pake hape butut kacrut itu. Lah skrg dihari dimana Iphone 4 kluar di Australi ini, aku kerja dan 3 dealer stores engga dapet stock sama sekali yang dapet cuman 3 stores di city n carousel dan selebihnya di apple store. Ya udah, nunggu aja siapa tau ntar yg second batch stock kita pada dapet. Eh ternyata baru bakal dapet kira2 4-6 weeks from this week (!)

Ya udah ditahan2in lagi pake hp kacrut itu, sampe minggu lalu ke apple store (mampir doank 5 menit) eh kok rasanya lebih cepet kalo beli outright aja (unlocked Iphone) walopun rada mencret bayarnya tapi ini butuh hape. Minggu ini dibelain2 ke apple store ujan badai di lewatin eh stocknya habis. sebel banget dah. mana orang2 bilangnya niat banget sih bli iphone, kenapa ga upgrade hape yang laen aja, kenapa ga bb aja. KENAPA SIH ??? emang aku butuh iphone, karna udah pengen itu dari taun lalu dan skrg hape LG ini udah mati beneran, ini aja pake hape pinjeman temen. Duit juga duit sendiri, yang kerja keras juga bukan elo gitu. Intinya pengen nangis nih kalo iphone minggu depan belon ada, ini udah ngidam Iphone setaun lebih !

ps: di aussie ini pake sistem plan hape, jadi kontrak sama providernya 2 tahun dan itu termasuk hapenya. Jadi gimana ya jelasinnya? kayak bayar $49/month itu dapet pulsa yang buanyak + hapenya juga. intinya bayar pulsa aja tiap bulan bonus hape hehehe. Tapi kalo mau bli hape sendiri juga gak papa sih tapi diitung2 lebih mahal, kalo ga mau kontrak sama provider tertentu mending bli hape sendiri trus pake prepaid connection.

woemji

2010-08-11T23:19:00.002+08:00

capek buanget 2 hari ini. Kerja rodi bok, bener2 dah CEO bukan padahal tapi banyak buanget yg mesti dikerjain, kemaren sampe baru pulang kerja jam 6an hiks pdhl kmrn kerja yg di warwick yg 40 menit dari rumah. Capek ati sih kerjaannya dimarahin customer, pdhl udah 2 jam kiri kanan pegang telpon tapi engga dijawab sama sales support, telp other stores juga engga membantu. Sales juga kagak dapet itu 2 jam, pagi2nya juga udah banyak kerjaan, numpuk banget lah. Pulang2 maunya bersantai sama jon mo bli iphone 4 trus ngafe gitu, eh ternyata mesti meeting buat leadership camp mana ngomongin AD/ART pulak berat bok sampe jam 11 malem lebih. Tambah teparlah diriku.

Hari ini ga kurang juga dramanya, systemnya down ! buset i lost 3-4 customers! radak anjing sih itu bos2 udah tau system fallback, masi dimarain customer gara2 bisa bkin kontrak, sales support juga fallback ga bisa manual juga, si bos gede juga cuman bilang ya mintak aja lho kontaknya trus di telp kalo udah balik. yeee emang gampang ya begituan. Ini kontrak2 an sampe aku bawa plg ya, bleeeh sampe males liat tas isinya kontrak semua soalnya hahha.

Ini mata udah kayak panda, capek banget, exhausted tepatnya. jelek banget dah tampang saya, rambut udah kacak kadut, mata panda, kulit kering, bibir pecah2. haduh perlu perawatan muka ini.

beef rendang, cheese and wine

2010-08-09T21:10:00.003+08:00

Hi all, I've been pretty busy with the choir practices and those sort of church events these couple of weeks, leaving me craved for homemade dinners and just sitting around my lazy chair in front of TV. Another thing that I've been craving this whole time other than an Iphone 4 is BEEF RENDANG, the one that one of the aunties at church once cooked for us. But then, too lazy to search around for the recipe and taadaaa my sister suddenly called me that she cooked rendang and yes at that time I promised my stomach to eat rendang ASAP. So, yeah I cooked it yesterday turned out to be really good and cook it again this afternoon and maybe tomorrow and the day after maybe ;p

Well oh well it also turned out that I put too much water on the pot so I made quite a lot of beef broth and I thought I had to make something out of it as well so I made the beef ball soup as well tonite :) While waiting for the soup to be cooked, I sat down and started munching the brie cheese and crackers and thinking of this could be better with the sparkling wine, so there I was having my favourite brie cheese and corn crackers with that superb sparking wine and I even had beef rendang for my dinner. It's a really nice chill out after not being able to relax at all after work for couple weeks.

2010-08-03T00:10:00.002+08:00

ga punya waktu, mo masak lho ya kapan masak? tiap malem ada ajaaaa, yang choir yang meeting yang kerja yang misa pertama harus choir. Udah ga sekolah kok tambah sibuk ? jadi pusing sendiri ini. Mana kerjaku khan harinya RADAK awkward ya jadinya jarang pergi dan pacaran huhuhuhu. Gimana mau kurus dan irit ini? seminggu makan di rumah maksimal 4-5 kali tok. Kayaknya it's the time of the year again, when all the big events clash with my comfortable time *nyeeeh*

silly me

2010-08-03T00:05:00.002+08:00

Nyeiyeheyeheyeheyehey

Life is getting much better now, I just feel the burden is a little bit lighter these days. So, in short, I got my uni results last week and yeah, I passed all units which means I'm no longer a student ! wohoo and and and the great news is I got 7 for each band for my ielts test which also means I can apply for my permanent residency here !! double wohoooo. I personally thank everyone who prayed for my permanent residency, I thank God for not letting me down (because come on, common sense ->I work here as a SALES person who talks talks everyday with millions customers, I graduated from an -english speaking- university, then how come I can't pass my ielts test, I can prove myself I can do this ! ) --> nah I'm lying, the night before, I cried the whole nite listing down all my things on what needs to be shipped to Indonesia, what should I do my clothes and bags and shoes, should I donate them or should I send them to Indonesia, preparing myself to do a long distance relationship with Jon and those sort of stupid thoughts. So when I opened that ielts results folder, I jumped over joy and I had pork for my dinner (pork is my happy food btw). So yeah, Jon was also that happy.

Talking about my work, eerrr nothing special it's just a job. Found more and more stupid customers everyday, I mean, I'm a sales person not a technician but I got so many customers expecting us to fix their problems. or famous ones are "Oh, when is the Iphone 4G coming?", "Do you know what Iphone 4 plans are?" and "Huh, how come you don't know when Iphone 4 is coming? you're working here!" come on morons... first of all, I'm not working for Steve Jobs, secondly, If I knew it I won't be lying to you, thirdly, READ THE NEWS !!! then you will know when it would be coming to aussie, and lastly, I'm not the CEO of this company, I'm just the slave so I have no fuckin idea on iphone plans !
Oh and they're doing this stupid merger thingy with vodafone, so this week I'm working more than 40 hrs to set up the whole thing. Good money thou, but 6 days a week freaking yeah what a life.

Now I'm craving for .... a long holiday ! hiks hiks hiks and the Paul&Joe cosmetics, they are cute esp. the alice in wonderland products ooh where can I buy those lipsticks ?? I firstly found them in Diana-Ang's blog , then (as usual) searched them online but couldn't find any >.<

My papa

2010-07-14T21:48:00.003+08:00

is the first man I love in my life and I always will.

He is not a rich dude, in fact he works really hard for us but we never suffer, not even once.
He is a good husband, taking care of mum that much. I mean like, calling her almost every hour, being the romantic guy on their anniversary, being supportive of everything we (me and my sister) are doing.
He is the "educative" daddy. Saving every pennies he had for our education, like sending us overseas, letting us chose whatever degree we liked and never mind paying for our private tutors.
He never whinged about spending too much for his kids, but he barely spent anything for himself.
He has never ever beaten me or my sister or my mum. Not even once. He is a true gentleman.
He is my true legend. He graduated with cumlaude or with distinction (if you're more familiar with this). He can speak 4 languages. In short, he has a really really good brain, it can literary absorb anything.
He likes traveling and even though we are not rich, we have the privilege to travel in almost every year.
He is afraid of God and he prays a lot. A faith that strengthens his love to us.
He is my man. I will get myself a husband like him.

My master degree is for you, papa. for everything you have done in my life.

It's official now :)

menanti sabar waktu Tuhan

2010-07-13T16:38:00.002+08:00

Di dalam hidup ini, semua ada waktunya.
Ada waktunya kita menabur,
ada juga waktu menuai.

Mungkin dalam hidupmu bagai datang menyerbu,
mungkin doamu bagai tak terjawab !
Namun yakinlah tetap.

Tuhan tak'kan terlambat
juga tak akan lebih cepat
Semuanya Dia jadikan indah tepat pada waktuNya.

Tuhan selalu dengar doamu.
Tuhan tak pernah tinggalkanmu.
PertolonganNya pasti kan tiba tepat pada waktuNya.

Bagaikan kuncup mawar pada waktunya mekar
Percayalah ...
Tuhan jadikan semua indah pada waktunya.

Hendaklah kita slalu hidup dalam firmanNya.
Percayalah kepada Tuhan!
Nantikan Dia bekerja pada waktuNya.

Tuhan takkan terlambat
Juga takkan lebih cepat
Ajarilah kami setia slalu menanti waktuMu Tuhan.

Liat blush on tangan gatel pengen beli, pdhl blush on ada 2 dan ga ada tanda2 mo abis; ngeliat eye shadow udah punya seabrek2 segala warna n jarang di pake; liat lipstick juga punya banyak n ga dipake2; liat mascara pengen jugak pdhl udah ada banyak; paling ga tahan liat apa coba?? bedak n eyeliner !! oemji sih itu bedak ada 4 macem bok, loose powder, compact powder ada 2, mineral powder, liquid foundie, eyeliner jangan tanyak deh.

Later or sooner. He knows what is best for me. Faith is the word.

hidup warna warni

2010-06-15T23:40:00.002+08:00

Hidup akhir2 ini penuh warna lho, ada senengnya tapi banyakan ngomel2nya hihihihi. ga pernah deh sewarna warni ini seumur2 yang rasanya pengen tenggelem aja di dalem tanah trus lari pindah benua laen. Rasanya kok ngenes liat kehidupan karir saya ini, tapi ditahan2in demi nambahnya nominal tabungan, rasanya kok ya kerjaan sama gaji ga sama toh, yang namanya bos2 gede itu enak bener suruh sana sini seenaknya ga pernah kerja in real working situation tapi gajinya gede bener. Lah kita2 yang "rebutan" sales aja masih disalah2in, gaji ga seberapa, kerja rodi, dimarain customer iya di marain manajer iya. haish. susah ya jadi rakyat jelata gini.

Soal permanent resident juga masik ribet. engga ngerti ya kenapa government aussie itu nerima asylum2 beribu2 gitu dengan enaknya, dikasih fasilitas mewah lagi. Lah kita yang overseas student mintak permanent resident aja susah setengah mati peraturan berubah terus, application fee nambah terus tiap tahun, nilai ielts ditambah terus tiap tahun. Pak menteri migration, liat donk kita bayar uang sekolah yang 5x lbh mahal drpd local students on time selalu lho, kita ga pernah lupa bayar tax2an itu, apalagi income tax yang 15% dr gaji kita yg kecil, kita ga pernah lho mintak2 uang ke centrelink lho kalo ga punya kerjaan, kita pake private insurance yang sebulan feenya mahal banget, kita ga minta free insurance ke medicare. Kita juga suka belanja2 disini walopun semuanya made in china dengan harga dollar aussie.
Kenapa to pak, kita kok dibikin susah minta residency disini? kenapa? kenapa? kenapa asylum seekers itu dengan gampangnya dimasukin kesini pdhl mereka ga ngasi benefit apapun ke negeri ini? dengerin donk suara2 kita ini. Kita benci banget lho sama government kalian itu, benciiii banget sampe udah point ga peduli lagi, disuruh pulang ya udah biar kita serahin aja ke Tuhan yang Mahatahu (sok jawaban artis)

Yang bikin seneng selama ini ya cuman temen2 di Perth dan Jon tentunya. Rasa2nya lagi mating season ya ini, banyak banget temen2 yg merit taun ini dan dilamar taun ini, buanyaaak banged sampe kebal kalo ada berita2 gitu. Hihihih si Jon katanya sampe bingung cara2 ngelamar udah dipake semua hahhaha dari naek gondola by the swan udah, naek hot air balloon udah, surprised brekkie with the ring udah, proposing on the highest building in CBD juga udah, di pante ah movie banget. Ah aku sih gampang jon, ga usah dilamar gpp, dibliin rumah aja hihihi. *halah kayak udah punya duit aja mo kawin*

Ya didoaken saja ya semoga semua yang di komplen diatas dapat berjalan dengan lancar selancar2nya terlebih2 bagian apply PR dan dapet kerjaan yang lbh manusiawi. Amin.

kisah sedih di hari minggu

2010-06-13T23:53:00.002+08:00

adalah ketika ngeliat detik2 terakhir minggu menjelang senen. seperti sekarang ini, ugh i hate monday dikarenakan besok udah kerja lagi ! ya apalagi nasib kerja di retail yg sabtu juga kerja jadi weekend terpaksa cuman minggu tok.

Hari minggu selalu kerasa sangat sangat sangat cepet, waktu udah kejar2an sama kitanya. Ke gereja misa Indo jam 11.30 *itu udah siang banget yak*, kelar misa plus blah blahnya jam 1an, cari lunch dan argumen mo makan dimana 1.15, selesai makan siang jam 2.30 biasanya. Ya udah intinya udah abis waktunya belon lagi kalo minggu wajib tidur siang ! bangun tidur udah jam 6an, masak dinner blah blah blah eh udah jam 8an. Maen internet bentar eh udah mo jam 12. apa2an ini.

Ya udah sekarang off to bed, doaken besok mencapai target demi mengumpulkan pundi2 bonus yg menjadi pundi2 uang di bank untuk mencapai masa depan cerah beli rumah.

Life is a full of shit

sometimes.

oh well most of times.

His cute notes.

2010-05-30T22:58:00.002+08:00

So this is his notes, reminding me what to bring on my first business trip ever. He's too cute to even mention eyeliner and make-up remover, and insisting me to bring my make up remover pads as well.

for this moment, i just don't see my social life is that important.

2010-05-14T22:19:00.007+08:00

It's kinda an irony to me, I hate writing so much rite now. I just have too many reports and assignments to do that required me to write at least 1500 words for every single assessment. But i have so many things in my mind that is needed to be written ASAP otherwise my brain wouldn't have the capability to hold them anymore. I need a brain upgrade. Ok, now let's see I start writing non-sense, unstructured words. Blame assessments.

In like 2 weeks, I'll be smelling my freedom and you will see this blog be full of posts.
For now, let me live in my academic journals world. ciao.

take it for granted

2010-04-24T22:21:00.002+08:00

Setelah dipikir2 yah there are so many things that I have taken them for granted, misalnya pas dulu masih di Surabaya, selalu ada makanan udah siap di meja makan dan took it for granted, sekarang baru kerasa pas masak sendiri, dan begitu pula hal2 kecil yang laen. Yang baru2 kerasa ini, minum kopi. Hal kecil seumprit yang ga penting tapi has a big impact on my personal life (ciyeeeeh). Pas dulu kerja jadi barista, enak banget mau minum 10000ml coffee shot sehari juga gak papa, bikin kopi campur sana sini seenaknya sendiri, disuruh ngafe ogah bener orang bisa minum gratisan gitu. Skrg kerasa banget yang dulunya minum kopi every single day bisa 4 cups, sekarang seminggu aja belom tentu minum kopi abisan sayang bener $4 buat kopi.

Trus another thing is ngafe-ing, ini tipikal banget yang duduk, sante2, ngobrol2 lama banget dan itu sangat enjoyable banget. Dari yang bad mood bisa lho jadi happy gara2 ngafe hehehehe, bener2 boost up my mood kalo ngafe tapi sekarang sibuk banget, pulang kerja ya choir, ya bikin assignment, kalo day off ya bikin assignment, sibuk urusan ICYO lah, ini lah itulah jarang banget ngafe dan minum kopi ENAK !
Dulu sih asik bener, kalo lagi bete ke South Perth aja beli kopi dimana gitu trus duduk2 di jettynya ngadep city parah enaknya. Sekarang yaah nyampe rumah rata2 udah diatas jam 9 malem, mandi, buka2 imel, nyiapin bekel besok, tidur, pagi kerja lagi gitu aja terus. Pengen banget tiba2 ke Leederville buat ngafe sejam aja tapi yang santai abis dan udah dandan centil2an gitu heheheh abisan seringnya kalo keluar masih pake baju kerja, udah kucel gitu blm mandi sih.

Perth Hail Storm

2010-03-24T13:31:00.002+08:00

There is only one word: SCARY.

Hail stormnya cuman less than one hour, damage cost more than A$100,000. Untung waktu itu aku lagi kerja sampe jam stg 6 mlm, jam 4an gitu lampu shopping centre sempet mati trus nyala langsung abis itu orang2 yang masuk pada basah kuyup trus semua bilang diluar ada storm. Abis itu mulai kedengeran lightenings, thunders, hujan deres banget, trus bunyi krotok krotok di atep ternyata itu hailnya serem abis segede2 bola golf gitu. Jam stg 6 pas keluar, banjir aja lho parkiran park centre, banjir sepintu mobil, mau keluar ke albany hwy banyak mobil kelelep dan mogok. JRENG JRENG JRENG. mobilku khan kecil lemah manual tak berdaya gitu udah serem aja kalo mogok gimana mana jaringan telpon juga kaco putus2 gitu n ga nyambung gitu. serem banget dah. Sepanjang jalan traffic light mati semua, banjir2, macet total sampe yg biasanya less than 10 mins udah sampe rumah ini stg jam lebih. dan dan dan lampu mati sepanjang jalan, shopping centre juga mati, mcd juga mati, semua deh.

Sampe dirumah langsung lemes lho, udah basah kuyup gitu pengen mandi aer anget khan. LAMPU MATI AJAAAA di dalem rumah gelap abis gitu sampe akhirnya jongkok di dpn rumah sambil telp jon nyuru dia nemenin hehehehe loser abis. ternyata oh ternyata dimana2 jalanan macet total ga gerak jadinya ya udah ga jadi kesini deh jon. Di rumah pun mandi gelap2, makan gelap untung beli makanan tadi siangnya cuman ya itu manasinnya manual pake kompor hehehe. Jam 8 malem udah manis ditmpt tidur, kedip2 doank mau belajar ga bisa, bikin assignment ga bisa pdhl ada yg due besoknya, nyalain laptop cuman tahan bentar, batre ipod abis. Khan ga pernah ya lampu mati jadinya kita ga siap apa2 donk mana lilin cuman ada 3 itu aja bekas retret hehehhe. Ya bengong2 aja dalam kegelapan sambil sesengukan di bawah selimut. Papa mama pasti tau lah kalo anaknya yg satu ini benci banget sama lampu mati, kalo di indo aja lampu mati pasti tangan udah nyamber telp, telpon ke pln tiap 5 mnt. Disini? yah udah dibilangin se Perth pada mati semua mo gimana coba.

Besok paginya masih tetep mati lampu lho, ternyata parah banget bangetan itu storm. Kings park sampe mudslide, apartemen2 mountsbay yg bagus2 itu kena lumpur aja lho hehehe. Mobil2 pada bolong2 ancur2 kena hails, Curtin uni sampe mulangin student2nya lho gara2 fire alarm nyala, pintu2 automatic ga bisa kebuka, atap library roboh, banjir dimana2. Yah yah yah sampe detik ini masih ada 16rb rumah di perth yg blm dapet power back.

Since this is Lent season and me, as a Catholic, have to give up something that I like. So, I decided to give up meat for this year, it's just something that I haven't done before, being a vegetarian for 45 days. You must know that eating vegetarian menu or cooking different vegetarian menus is absolutely killing my -already dying- cooking brain. I only know couple menus to cook that always contains tofu and tofu and mushroom and if someone opens my stomach it will be just tofus and some chinese vegies. I finished class at 8pm, got home STARVING like havent eaten for 2 days, looking at my frigde and AH HA i found fresh spinach and ricotta pasta and that's when brain suddenly awakes from the dead. I made this fresh homemade yummy pasta. I think this is my second best vegetarian food after agedashi tofu.

disclaimer: this photo doesn't look appealing but the TASTE is HEAVEN.

Ingredients:

Spinach & Ricotta agnolotti (dumplings) - mine was Remo pasta
Tomato paste - mine was Remo Tomato pasta and red wine
Oregano - cant live without it or Basil leaves
Fresh mushroom, cut into smaller pieces - I was using fresh white mushroom
A bit of feta cheese, crumbled

A bit of black pepper
A bit of sugar

How to cook:

1. Boil pasta until cooked and drain.

2. Use a saucepan, put the tomato paste first, sprinkle with oregano or basil leaves and black pepper and sugar. Wait until hot, put a little bit of water to difuse the paste and then the pasta, stir it well.

3. Put in the mushroom and feta cheese together, stir it well until cooked.

4. Then, ready to serve.

Finishing:

Sprinkle with oregano, parmesan cheese and in my case, the sweet chilly cream cheese. Teehee I'm a cheese person.

Trust me, I couldn't make pasta before, they always tasted so bad that I gave up cooking them. But this time, it is realllllllllllllllllllllyyyyyyyy gooooooooood like the one you have in an Italian restaurant. Next time you make pasta, use tomato sauce and herbs.

My agedashi tofu and agedashi mushroom isn't that bad as well. trust me, I'm getting better. Ask Jon. teeheee
