SUNDAY

I was not in the mood for any blogging yesterday
I was too excited after watching Transformers 2.
Seriously, it was sick.
And I mean in a positive way.

I love Josh Duhamel. He was sizzling.
























I think I'm developing some kind of a girl-crush on Megan Fox. She is flawless.











And Shia was outstandingly zany, it was comical. Heart him huge.






Oh and John Turturro (who play Agent Simmons), love him. Of course he was vexatious as usual, if you watched previous Transformers, but he saved the day so all was forgiven.



Ramon Rodriguez (who play Leo) was also hilarious. He is a perfect addition for the cast. Fresh and noticable (not too mention kind of cute), but didn't outshined the main cast.
















As for the tin-men, who doesn't worship Optimus Prime and just adore BumbleBee.
The Twins never failed to make me smile and even burst out laughing evrytime they appear on the screen.
But Jetfire caught my attention. I was attracted to that oldschool vintage grumpy Decepticon. And the very end, it was his body parts that saved the day. Well, Optimus Prime saved all the human, but he did it with the help of Jetfire's body parts.
The 150 minutes just flew by with full throttle action from beginning to the end.
Super cool movie.

I already forgotten what activities I did yesterday.
I remember I went to church.
Then got my make up done. Never really liked to put any make up on, I feel like I'm wearing a mask, tho I love the end result.
Attended a wedding.
Got on my way back to Karawaci.
Watched Transformers 2. It wasn't planned at all. My sister suddenly suggested it. And I was like 'okaayy..' Cause I was tired and I was feeling like crap and I wasn't sure we will get any ticket and the I'm not sure if we gonna make it back to the mall in time since we had to put our luggages at our townhouse first. But I'm glad I didn't say no. The movie was exceptional.
Went back to our townhouse.
Transferred pictures to my PC.
Didn't get a chance to read any New Moon.
Let's go way back to one of my so many quotes from the book.
"I was like a lost moon--my planet destroyed in some catalysmic, disaster-movie scenario of desolation--that continued, nevertheless, to circle in a tight little orbit around the mpty space left behind, ignoring the laws of gravity."
New Moon page 201 paragraph 2.

SATURDAY

Another cancellation.

Another failure to watch Transformers 2.

I was actually pissed. And got all bitchy but only for a few hours.



It has been a peculiar day. I had a strange urge to make money. How bizarre is that?

First, I was discussing my possible future career with my dad. Willingly and happily and excitedly.

Next, I was determined to make a garage sale. It's just so not me.

I have never been the one who crazy about making money.

Perhaps because I never had any trouble with my allowance. But now, the urge just getting more and more emerge.



Woke up around 8.30

Got out of the house around 10.45

Went to pick up my sis from dentist, off to BTC, then lunch at PVJ

Grocery shopping at setiabudi supermarket

Went back home.

Watched Zodiac. I hate movies with endings that left us hanging and with sentences explanation. It's just simply irritating.

Went to dinner at Duck King. Yummy. What a lunatic weekend. Redemption would not be pretty.

Ending my day with another chapter of New Moon

" 'You look like hell, Bella.'

'I drowned today,' I reminded her.

'It goes deeper than that. You're a mess.'

I flinched. 'Look, I'm doing my best.'

'What do you mean?'

'It hasn't been easy. I'm working on it.'

She frowned. 'I told him,' she said to herself.

'Alice,' I sighed. 'What did you think you were going to find? I mean, besides me dead? Did you expect to find me skipping around and whistling show tunes? You know me better than that.' "

FRIDAY

I had so much fun today.
No.
That would be an understatement.
I had a huge enormous one ton bucket of fun today.

I literally just got home. And strangely, I'm not tired at all. In fact, I feel fully energized right now. And it's pass 11. Usually this is the time when my power start to giving out.

I hung out with my high school friends this afternoon. We didn't do much of nostalging. Just catching up. Mostly goofing around. And it felt good. It felt right. This is my friend. My own friends. Not my sister's friend. (Not that I don't love them. I love all my friends!!)
But still, it's a different atmosphere.
I supposed I've been breathing with my sis friends atmosphere for so long. And now, just then, I was breathing a whole different air. It's ... Refreshing.
I feel refreshed.

Woke up around 8.20. Nothing screams weekend better than waking up after the sun rise without the rush of getting up and getting ready for the day. I spent half an hour just laying in bed after I opened my eyes.
Breakfast, then took a plunge into the pool with my lil sis. Did 30 laps. Felt super pleased with myself tho I got another attack of headcahes afterwards.
Spent the rest of the morning laying in bed until lunch time.
Watched Speed Racer. Go speed racer, go speed racer, go speed racer gooo. You have to admit, it's a catchy tune.
Went to d Ranch with my frenz. Took bunch of pictures. (I will upload it to fb soon!). I could never be a farm girl. I love cleanliness to the max.
Went to dinner at Nanny's Pavillion. We took a scary dangerous (I'm talking steep sharp turn with cliff on both sides) dark bumpy way to our dinner place. It was pitch-dark and our 3 cars were the only one at sight. Thankfully, we all got there in one piece.
Went back home.
Ending my wonderful day with another chapter of New Moon.
"If Romeo was really gone, never coming back, would it have mattered whether or not Juliet had taken Paris up on his offer? Maybe she would have tried to settle into the leftovers scraps of life that were left behind. Maybe that would have been as close to happiness as she could get."

THURSDAY

The only bad thing about home is all the food that never out of stock.

I need to redeem myself after the weekend.



Why is online shopping so appealing to me??

I found weird satisfaction evrytime I just put an order.

And worse, I got all excited like a kid on Christmas morning when the package came.

It's a diabolical cycle I need to break.



I learned something today. About my friends, people on whom I depend on for some sanity.

Nothing bother me more than unhappiness of my friends. I don't have a lot of friends. I mean, I know a lot of people. But only a handful I would called as friend. And even less as bestfriend. (I don't really believe in BFF tho).

I hate to see my friend hurting. I really wished I could have done more for my troubled friend.

Like Nicole Richie said, True friends are like diamonds – bright, beautiful, valuable, and always in style.

She's right. You don't get diamonds from the street, you have to earned them. It's only for the priviliged one.



This diamond is for my peepz (I'll get the real one when I have 10numbers salary)



Woke up around 5.20 with new hope. The holiday week is only a couple hours away.

Endure through magic class. I'm just going to quote my tweet. "Do u know bitchy not just for the bitches? Appearantly it also apply for the male canine. True story on my magic class this morning."

Went home. Went back to campus to picked up my sis.

Got on our way to Bandung.

Got home.

Got pissed off cause my tv was gone. Felt totally empowered for successfully plugged in tv on my own.

Rest rest rest.

Watched Bones, Criminal Minds, and now Blade. Super dose of hot guys for today. Kudos.

I didn't get a chance to read more of New Moon.

"I thought about what Jacob had said earlier this morning, about hypocrisy. I thought about that for a long time. I didn't like to think that I was a hypocrite, only what was the point of lying to myself?"

WEDNESDAY

I loathe today.

Okay that's not a fair statement.
Unfortunate events started out just tonight.
Things appeared to be good and fun until before I took a shower.

I knocked over a door,
almost tripped in the bathroom,
bit my lip so hard I ended up in tears,
scared myself out when I caught a glimpse of myself on the kitchen door's glass across the room (I looked like Sadako and ended up tied my hair up tho it was still wet),
my dad hung up the phone line before I said anything (I hate when people do that),
my nose begun and still leaking,
my printer broke down (now I have ink all over my fingers),
I seemed to be donating blood to the mosquitoes more than I was willing to,
and tho I know I am one of the lucky person who don't have to worry about what to eat tomorrow or where to sleep tonight, still, right now, all I have in my shallow mind is :
MY LIFE STINK

Ugh. I need music and some PowerPuffGirls ambiance.

Woke up around 5.30. Off to campus as usual.
Study study study until 10. Back to work for Magic presentation until 12.30.
Back home.
Chilling out.
Picked up my sis at campus.
Watched The Tale of Desperaux. I would love to read the book. And.. For the storyline, for me, it was a little too . . . quirky. I mean.. No soup = No rain. Soup = Rain = Happiness.
Got jealous to every people who watched Transformers2 today.
My day started to get irritating.

Stumbled upon this really cool pics



















































Underwater photography is seriously magnificent for sure. If only I could ever overcome my fear of sharks, which would never happen.

I'm just going to end the day.
With another chapter of New Moon definetly
"This was worse than any romantic movie; this was so real that it sang out loud with joy and life and true love. I put my muffin down and folded my arms across my empty chest. I stared at the flowers, trying to ignore the utter peace of their moment, and the wretched throbbing of my wounds."
New Moon pg. 333 paragraph 9

TUESDAY

Just got home from watching Garuda Di Dadaku.
It was a good movie.
Finally some Indonesian decent movie that doesn't involve overvaganza sex theme or religion or mysterious creatures that haunted your nightmares. NORMAL MOVIE.

Still, I don't understand what all the whiz and all the sold-out tickets in elite theaters.
For me, it was inspirational for sure, but not as good as Laskar Pelangi. And it was funny. Definitely funny. You should try watch this movie sitting one row behind a bunch of 7 years old.
There was this one scene after the grandpa got heartattack and a kid in the front said "10 tahun kemudian". Me and my friend burst out laughing.
Oh. And just so you know, there was some horror in it too. I mean, soccer practice in the middle of a graveyard?? Formidable. Talk about determination.
























I particulary moved by the grandpa. The things you do for your grandchildren. I have to admit, he was being a partystopper in a couple scenes. Maybe because I don't have grandfather anymore? I must say, I miss my Engkong.


















Woke up around 6. Off to campus. Watched Bill Gates sort-of-semi-biography. (What an inspirational day I have).

Went back home. And when I was taking off my soft lens, I realized my hands were shaking. When driving home, I admit my hands felt a little weird, like a little off or something. Limp. Then it was shaking. I try to shook it off and it resulted nothing. It got worse. My hands felt sluggish. But it stopped after lunch. I speculate my body was in need for some energy. Strangely, I wasn't feeling hungry at all when I was all quivering.

Got my online shopping package.
Drop my sis off at campus and totallly missed PowerPuffGirls. Well, I watched one episode.
Did nothing productive.
Watched Garuda Di Dadaku.
Went back home.

Ending my day with another chapter of New Moon.
"I'd cried myself to sleep over this boy. His harsh rejection had punched a painful new hole in what was left of my chest. He'd left a new nightmare behind him, like an infection in a sore--the insult after the injury."
New Moon pg.280 paragraph 9

MONDAY

I had the worst headache ever.
It was so bad I needed to take a nap. I don't normally do naps.
Honestly, I'm not capable of doing naps. It's just not in my system to sleep during the day.
Well, I didn't exactly took a nap. I was lying in bed for 2 hours to be precise.
I took sleeping pill, the action gave me nothing but a faster fluttering heartbeat beyond normal I was convinced I was having a heartattack.
Well, this happens a lot so it wasn't as dire as it sounded. But, still, it was excruciating.

I'm feeling all better now. The headache is still there but managable enough for me to function.

Woke up around 5.30 with the headache. Off to campus. Class until 11. Headache got worse.
Random : I got invitation for SD reunion. At first, I had no clue on the 2 people that invited me. I had no memory of them. But then I realized one of the names that was listed. Not sure if I'm coming.
Working on magic presentation until 1.
Went back home with even worser headache. I had no idea how I got I home. I remember I was paying the parking tickets and after that the stabbing pain took control.
All I know I was lying in bed wandering off to la la land until I heard my sister came home.
I guess that was when the sting finally tuned down a knotch.

Watched PowerPuffGirls after so long. It was a full 3 days since the last time I enjoy the company off Blossom, Buttercup, and Bubbles.











































I'm not sure what is it that keep me coming back to check on them. I always feel happier and lighter after.I suppose it has something to do with childhood memory? I feel like I was a child all over again. No crazy lecturers, no boys drama, no assignments, no paying the bills, no headaches, what a great life.

Watched GossipGirl season 2 finale. Chair (Chuck and Blair) ended up together. At last.

Ending my day with another chapter of New Moon for sure.
"The place wasn't nearly so stunning without the sunlight but it was still very beautiful and serene. It was the wrong season for wildflowers; the ground was thick with tall grass that swayed in the light breeze like ripples across a lake.
It was the same place . . . but it didn't hold what I had been searching for."

SUNDAY

Happy Father's Day!
At least, in the other side of the world.

Since we are celebrating Father's Day, I'd like to tell some fun facts about my dada.
1. He doesn't like too sweet candies
2. He hates the smell of hand sanitizer
3. He's good at basically everything
4. He can't sleep if the bed's too soft (I'm telling you, his bed is rock solid)
5. The thing I really like? His smell. He has this unparallel smell when I'm snuggling in his embrace. Sort of i-just-woke-up smell I guess. All I know, that smell always makes me feel save. Weird, huh? Maybe I should extract his smell. So everytime I'm scared, I just sprayed them and boom, I'm okay. Good idea.



Woke up around 7.30 (went bed around 11, finally I have some decent sleeptime)
Spending all morning working on PEST presentation. Then went to sunday service.
Lunch at supermall. I'm telling you, eating kebab and still able to look sharp and tidy is a hard work including a pack of tissue.
Went crazy with sis at CCC. got the bez deal ever. satin pants for 85thousand. Unbelievable.
Google-ing and yahoo-ing for another magic presentation. Thankfully, some1 really kind in msn world lend me a hand. The kindness of stranger.
Watched Coraline. Reminded me a lot of NightmareB4Christmas. I wasn't too impressed tho.
Checking out vintage photos of my big fam. I mean, literally. It was mostly in the 50's. This one def my fav. It was my parent's wedding day. Heart it huge.

























Ending my day with another chapter of New Moon.
"He whistled cheerfully, an unfamiliar tune, swinging his arms and moving easily through the rough undergrowth. The shadows didn't seem as dark as usual. Not with my personal sun along."

SATURDAY

Ended up having a super tiring day.
That's why I just blogged today.

Slept at my aunt's house. Finally met our siblings from OZ.
Got the qtest necklace from them. Went mall to mall.
Had a really yummy dinner at Duck King tho.
My other aunt dropped me n my sis home.

While otw home, my other aunt and my another aunt (there were two aunts in the car) exchange stories on how an independent woman (that is my other aunt, I have tons of aunt) married a poor husband. They kept repeating on how it was such a waste to married a poor husband. When you are already have money, and house, and great kids whom you can depend on, why need a man who would only add extra cost?
I happened to disagree with them. I mean, I don't know if the hurts, the wounds, the pains--yes they had their fair share of life's agony--that made them bitter, but I wouldn't want a life without love.

Allow me to quote James Collins :
"Life without love isn't living and living without loving you haven't yet truthfully been alive!"

Maybe it's that I'm a raw and foolish youth, but even when later, when I'd be an adult with mature thoughts and financial stability and great kids, I'd still want my match, my soulmate, my pair. Whom I can loved and being loved. Cause everyone deserves to be loved. And as cynical as I am, I do believe in true love.



























And it's a different thing. A children's love for their parent and love from your Romeo. Your kids wouldn't be able to stand you 24/7 (you'd be as lucky as a girl found a diamond in a fish mouth if they still want to live in the same house with you after they're married) and still not be annoyed by your endless weird requests, but I know my Edward will.

I really hope 20 years from now, when I read this post, I'd have the same feeling as I have now.

FRIDAY

I have a major crush on CNN anchor Anderson Cooper. I woke up at 8.45 and stumble upon him. It's kismet.

I mean, who else in this entire universe can pull off a white hair without reminding me of my grandfather and still look that good?
That would be Anderson Cooper.
Saw him on Ellen Degeneres Show a few days ago. Though he was being funny, he still managed to look profesional.
HEART HIM.









My mom just arrived. And she already being a mom. Cleaning everything and has her comments on everything.
So we're going to stay a night at my aunt's house. I'm not a big fan on sleepovers. Okay, I hate sleepovers. I try to avoid it evrytime it allows me to. There's just something strange waking up in someone else's house. I feel like I have to be presentable all the time while sometimes all I want is just to wear my long old t-shirts and lazzying around in front of TV. You can't do that unless in the privacy of your own house. But I'm making an exception for this one. And praise all the grace, it's only for one night. I can live throught that.

In the spirit of summer (though it's still raining evry now and then) , I'm ditching my long jeans and worshiping my shorts. These legs needs air.

THURSDAY

I am currently reading New Moon. So now my world divided by my real world and of course, the imaginary world of briliant Stephenie Meyer.
Really, I am fascinated by this specific world. Something about selfless mind of Bella intrigues me.

























Woke up at 5.45 then off to campus.
Got tons of assignments for next week from my magical lecturer that obviously stressed me out. I really have no idea or any driven will on how to do this.
Lunch with my friends. And they have a really hard time to decide on where to eat. I managed to have time to feel a twinge of pain on my abdomen and my back. I'm not sure if it's the combination of stress and caffeine and the fact I was famished or I'm just easily get sick or I'm a hypochondriac.
Went with my big sis to find her a dentist. Mission was not accomplished. She just have to get by with those painkillers until our mom take her to dentist tomorrow. Be strong, ca!
Watched The Clique. It's very.. clique-y. Though I can't help to adore all those high-couture blazer and jackets. (totally craving for blazer right now)
Totally lured my big sis to join my newest fad : online shopping. She ended up chose 3 extra cute tops. Heart it huge.
Ending my day with another chapter of new moon.
My favourite quotes so far :
"It was loud and sometimes confusing as everyone talked over everyone else, and the laughter from one joke interrupted the telling of another. I didn't have to speak often, but I smiled a lot, and only because I felt like it.
I didn't want to leave." New Moon, page 150, paragraph 2.
