my bad influence

our comfortable beds oaaa...... i've just finished having my dinner, and now just browsing the social media (facebook and friends, hahaa). these couple of weeks, if not month, me and my partner (working partner) always wake up very late. we're supposed to be in our office at 9 am. then come back home at 5 (though we usually go back later than that, don't know why, but every one seems to work very hard). now, we wake up at around 9 or so, and then arrive at work at 11 or so. this is a stupid habit i keep at home (waking up late). the craziest thing was we woke up at 9.30 and come at lunch time. (why so long to arrive at the office? because, we need to shower, have breakfast, and my partner usually cook something for her breakfast and lunch before going to work) fyi, my partner's habit at home is always sleep early and wake up early in the morning. but since she came to sydney, her habit changes. she sleeps midnight and wake up late. once when we had our d

today is my birthday!! i wish that this year i would have a silent birthday, just like a year ago when the people surrounds me did not know that i was having a birthday, until a few days later. hehehe............. i wish to be able to contemplate for what i've done the previous year, what i've achieved, and what's still becoming my passion and dream. this year, i was granted a very good opportunity, yet still i longed for more. i would really love to be a social researcher, or someone who's working in the field she likes. still, i haven't found the gap to fill in with my passion in my current job, though now i start to look for it more carefully.  as for postgrad, this year, i've applied for three scholarship: BGF, fulbright and ADS, all three i haven't heard from. yet, i still keep my optimism though keep trying to find other doors. and still, i don't want to be too 'pushy'.  there, my dream with my bestfriends still haven

i don't like tempe here!

penampakan tempe dan jamur goreng tepung selama dua bulan ini, saya puasa makan tempe. well, i won't be a drama queen. i guess, banyak org yg tinggal di luar negeri indonesia, pada ngerasain lebih parah. atau malah selera -nya sudah kompromi dengan rasa makanan impor di sini.... :) wktu minggu pertama, saya dan partner saya sempat makan di rumah mkan indonesia. partner saya pesen tempe dan tahu grg, she's a vegetarian. dia blg tmpenya rasanya aneh. dan saya jadi males beli tempe. meskipun di dua toko swalayan asia ada tempe.  here i am, counting the days of my last month in Sydney. dan kemarin saya tergoda untuk membeli tempe. kelihatannya meyakinkan.  hari ini, saya masak jamur tiram grg tepung (favorite food, dan sudah lama juga ga nemu). enak. tpung yg udah dicampur masih sisa, finally, i decided to put my tempe in. trus goreng lah. pas makan. yes, jamurnya enak banged. agak pedes krn emang pke tepung bumbu pedes. begitu ngerasain tempe. oh my God, bless peop

relationship is about negotiation

hence, when negotiation fails, relationships will fall apart. and when one party refuses to negotiate anymore, relationships will start to break apart.

long goodbye - India Arie

I say I love you You say that's kind You don't wanna get too close You loved me crazy I lost my mind  Listen... You're everything I never wanted And all the things I didn't need This ain't who I wanna be  You don't have to stay forever I'll take passion over pride Full moon, high tide Let's make it a long goodbye Tomorrow we'll pick up the pieces Try to mend our broken lives Soft kiss, sweet lies Let's make it a long goodbye Yeah... I cried in silence I lived through you I've given everything away And maybe I can learn to fall For someone who can give me all The things I"m not afraid to lose Whenever you see lonely faces that's where I'll be don't cry for me, no no no no don't cry for me, don't cry for me yeah yeahhhh Hey, don't cry for me, no no no I'm gonna be okay

"Lebaran sebentar lagi..." Hore sebentar lagi lebaran ... hehehe... wah senang ya, sebulan puasa akhirnya hari raya sudah mau tiba.......... Hore!!!!!!!!!!! Tapi gak kroso e di sini... Argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dua kali puasa dan lebaran nih, ga di rumah. Berturut-turut pula. Gak enak ya. Meski kalo di rumah, ga ada ritual yg begitu spesial, kaya masak lontong, ketupat, opor ayam, dsb. Tapi di rumah, ada ibukku. ada keluarga. hihihi. hiks. Di rumah, biasanya masak sambel goreng ati, atau daging giling ... Terus, g ada kue2, tapi adanya cemilan kering2. kaya ceker ayam. sm kue cina yg selalu diberi orang. Dlu waktu eyang putri masih ada, tiap lebaran pasti ngumpul. Cucu pd nginep di rumah eyang. Puasa bareng. Maen kembang api bareng. hiks. Tapi skrg, ngumpulnya paling pas lebaran aja, pas trah besar. oohhh, mengapa tak ada suara takbir bertalu2??? sebenernya sih, beberapa tahun yg lalu, pernah juga sekeluarga lebaran di Bali. engga kerasa apa2 juga. namanya ju
