HAPPY
HALLOWEEN 
Each
working day is another scary day.

tomorrow
we're going to have party
in jimbaran  .
it was planned for lunch, but us, the fasting people
can't make it. so probably it'll be re-planned for
dinner...
*and there won't be fun 
without us, anyway*.
but can you imagine having lunch in jimbaran beach 
during the day? the heatstroke
will kill you
 and the
smoke from the barbeque thing will make you unable
to breathe
 .
jimbaran is romantically
beautiful
 in the
evening. it's a
bay,
so you can see the lights from the hilly four
seasons resort in the south and the take
off and landing airplanes
 at the
airport in the north.
my bro sms-ed me yesterday. he said it was raining
 and 17 degree
celcius in bandung! like autumn
in vienna
*bandung emang keren!*
this
guy told me it was raining
heavily
in
jakarta
too.
we haven't see rain in bali for ages. so we kinda forget
 how
does it looks like. then he tried to describe
me the rain. hujan
= air yg jatuh dari atas ke bawah  .

i
don't care if monday's blue
tuesday's grey and wednesday too
thursday I don't care about you
it's friday i'm in love
-- friday
i'm in love
- the
cure
i used to take this art/design
class.
and a girl in my class *i don't remember her name* always
played this song on and on for every
single day!!!
maybe this is one of the reasons why i
love friday
 so much...
-------------------------
i was kidnapped
during the office hours...
walking around
in kuta during the day was hot
but it was much much better than
working
in front of the computer in the office  .
and i found some stuff to be bought later  .
to office:
you're sucks!!!
you're even more
boring
 during the
fasting days  .

first
day of fasting wasn't
that bad
 .
actually it was really fine. i didn't feel hungry at
all, just bored
 .
i was sleepy 
too *thanks 
to you
who kept me awake at night by giving some homeworks
for my brain*
then i designed
a new lay out for next month
 .
a very simple one. just wait! 
it will be launched on nov 1st.
when
i was browsing around, i found an interesting
article about the history
of coffee in vienna:
it said, in 1683,
after the turkish was defeated in vienna, they
left a lot of coffee seeds. the viennese thought
it was camel
food
 .
until this guy, georg
kolschitzky,
knew how to treat the stuff. then
the first coffee house was opened somewhere near
stefansdom (st. stephen |
|
 |
cathedral) and it's still
there
until now. these days, vienna is one of the city which
is famous by its coffee houses. the viennese
drink coffee 
with
milk, rum, or honey
and always serve with a glass of water.
 |
|
talking
about turkish
drink,
a loooooooooong time ago, when i had trip to turkey,
they have this special
drink instead of coffee. it's apple
tea!
they're everywhere... they even give you when
you just do some shoppings.
and
it's always served with special
shape cup
*or glass?* and it tastes good!!

Let
us rise up and be thankful,
for if we didn't learn a lot today,
at least we learned a little,
and if we didn't learn a little,
at least we didn't get sick,
and if we got sick,
at least we didn't die;
so, let us all be thankful.

tadinya
gue mau posting tentang film, tapi kayaknya bosenin
banget deh. blognya
alaya = film.
gue mau tulis aja tentang temen
baru gue.
but i still will post something about movies later,
i know you guys love it! *ge er mode*
namanya meo.
gue juga baru
beberapa hari ini
kenalan sama dia. kalo gak salah pas gue posting tentang
betapa malesnya gue & garfield  .
dia bilang mau ikutan klub
males
gue. jadilah sekarang klub males ini anggotanya ada
3: gue,
garfield,
& meo
*but i'm sure no one still can't beat you,
we're not
lazy enough*.
mulailah tiap hari dia gangguin
gue kerja *sah... sejak kapan gue di
kantor kerja??
 *. manggil2
 gue
di ym, a mysterious
guy
 . gue
bilang nama dia itu sama dgn makanan
kucing  dlm
kaleng,
saingannya whiskas
*for those cat lover like you,
please check out whiskas's
site*. tapi dia baru tau.
udah ah.
back to the
movies...
watched
ju
dou, a movie made in 1991 *i'm sooo
yesterday
 *.
the director is zhang
yimou ( hero
(2003), the
road home (2001), not
one less (2000), raise
the red lantern (1991) ). about forbidden
love.
ju dou (gong
li) was the wife of the owner of a factory.
his husband was really cruel and had killed his
first and second wife because they couldn't give
him any child. so ju dou tried to get pregnant
with having affair
with
his husband's nephew to save her life. |
|
 |
i also watched some good
funny indonesian independece movies
like mayar, ubi & ubay, dear nina...,
and something about coke's can *can't remember the title*
from this
guy. but i'll write about it later .
|

i
met this
guy when i was sixteen or seventeen and fell
in love
 with
it...
being about
the same age,
i felt what holden
felt, but i didn't live in 50's and didn't
hate school that much
*i didn't do as bad as him either at school *.
If you really want to hear about it, the first thing
you'll probably want to know is where I was born and
what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents
were occupied and all before they had me, and all that
David Copperfield kind of crap, but I don't feel like
going into it, if you want to know the truth. In the
first place, that stuff bores me, and in the second
place, my parents would have about two hemorrhages apiece
if I told anything pretty personal about them.
it was a must-read book in school, but not
in my class.
we only read books like lord
of the flies or pygmalion
 . so i bought
& read
it by myself. kinda sad  ,
because i like reading books in
class better,
especially the part when people gave some kick-ass innocent
opinions, or the teacher told some secret
informations
which wasn't in the book. but the best part was when
someone didn't read the part he was told to read .
you know, people start to be creative when they were
under pressure...

my
guestbook was kaput...
were you too
tired
getting too many guests these days?
or was it just monday
curse?
 |
|
dissapointed
after
watching dancer
in the dark.
come on, this movie got the
best movie
and the
best female performance
in cannes
film festival. or maybe just because i
expected
too much?
set
in 1964
in rural america, it's about selma
(bjork)
a single mother of a son, gene,
and an immigrant from czechoslovakia. one day
she was fired from her job in a factory because
she |
lost
her eyesight
 .
she also lost her part as maria
in musical the
sound of music. but this is not all, someone
stole all of her money that she saved for her son's
eye surgery, so she killed that guy .
police found it out and she was sentenced
to death.
the movie is a bit musical, but i
never can like and understand
bjork's
music .
but i think she's cute
 . really
cute
.

thing always happen when you use someone

to

i've been using your card for months, but never
know your birthday.
i'm sorry  ,
what kind of friend i am. but the worst part was i
didn't know your full name
either, so when they told me to sign the birthday bill,
i just made up a name.

...Hidup mempertemukan kita dengan seseorang, lantas
memisahkannya lagi. Tidak selalu kita bisa berpisah
dengan lambaian tangan. Tidak selalu kita bisa berdiri
di tepi dermaga, melambaikan tangan kepada seseorang
diatas kapal yang juga melambaikan tangan kepada kita
sambil berseru, "Jangan lupakan aku!" Tidak selalu.
Kadang-kadang kita bertemu begitu saja dengan seseorang
yang tidak pernah kita kenal, menjadi lengket seperti
ketan, lantas mendadak berpisah begitu saja tanpa penjelasan
apa-apa.

yesterday,
one of my blog reader asked me why
do i hate monday so much.
well after having a
fun weekend,
i have to go back to work because
of monday
 , rotten
on my chair, waiting for the next weekend .
so if george
orwell in animal
farm said: all animals are equal, but
some of them are more equal than the others,
my version is: all days
are equal but some of them are more equal than the others
.
since he (the blog reader) is a doctor, he gave me a
medical advice
not to hate monday so much  .
ok, then. i will hate monday a
little less
by now....

i
was working
on my desk when a friend asked me to go out with him
to visit a villa  .
actually i got a pile of things to do, but working in
a room, in front of a computer too long is not good
for health, right?
so i decided to skip
the office.
setelah meng-endap2 & pinjem helm *kali ini gue
gak pake helm gue yg
warnanya bikin orang pengen bunuh diri*,
gue cabut sama temen gue itu naek motor *hi nonot ,
isn't it a big coincidence,
this morning you e-mailed 
me, asking about this villa, and a few minutes later
i was on my way there!*.
gue gak nyangka temen gue ini naek motornya ugal2an.
gue sempet beberapa kali ngerasa kalo ini adalah akhir
dari hidup gue
. trus mikir2
apa
aja yg blm sempet gue kerjain dlm hidup gue. ternyata
masih banyaaak....
 |
|
baru
nyadar kalo tempatnya rada2
jauh
.
udah deket
sama tanah lot.
tapi masuk2 desa gitu. yg bagus waktu kita ngelewatin
desa yg namanya seseh.
sepanjang sisi jalan ada pohon2
kelapa
(seseh artinya pohon kelapa dlm bahasa bali).
yg parah ternyata dia gak tau jalan. apalagi gue!
padahal dulu perasaan gue yg bikin petanya, tapi
gue gak inget sama sekali  .
setelah keluar masuk desa, tanya2 orang, nelfon
sana sini, nyasar ke villa orang, & dikejer
anjing *ih, anjingnya galak2 nyebelin gitu*, sampailah
kita. |
sampe sana gue sempet ditanya
org,
"mbak yg punya villa ini ya?" *yeah, i wish!*
gue rada2 terharu  ,
paling enggak tampang gue udah adalah sbg pemilik villa.
disana ngurusin urusan temen gue, trus balik lagi.
now here
i am,
back in front of my computer, writing my blog, meleleh
kepanasan  ,
& bau asap!

gue: kenapa?
temen gue: soalnya warna helm kita gak
matching...

me up by giving me some cute chocolates.

Lisa's Brain: They're only pretending
to be your friends because of the pool.
Lisa: Shut up, brain! I don't need
you any more, I'm popular now!

fair. If I win, I'll get a brand new protractor.

Lucy: You're different.
Sam: Yeah, but what do you mean?
Lucy: You're not like other daddies.
Sam: I'm sorry.
Lucy: No, daddy it's ok. It's ok.
Nobody else's daddy ever comes to the park.

Tyler
Durden: Man, I see in fight club the strongest
and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all
this potential, and I see squandering. God damn
it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting
tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising
has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs
we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're
the middle children of history, man. No purpose
or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression.
Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression
is our lives. We've all been raised on television
to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires,
and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't.
And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're
very, very pissed off.

hari kemaren beberapa jalan di bali ditutup
karena ktt asean.
rencananya tanggal 7-8 itu seluruh kantor mau

*asiiiiiik  *
tapi gubernur bali menolak
*yaaaaaah *

|
|
temen

ada
temen gue yg laen sempet stuck
setengah jam
di jalan soalnya jalan di depan yg mau dia lewatin
ditutup gara2 para delegasi mau lewat. |
|

pesawat
bos gue di-delay. |
|

waktu
wiken kemaren gue ke nusa dua, ada pemeriksaan
yg super duper ketat.
mobil gue diperiksa pake detektor, tas gue dibongkar
*padahal tas baru, apaaa coba?*. tapi yg meriksa

kemaren
siang gue lewat jalan legian macet. ternyata ada
delegasi yg mau belanja
.
yg belanja cuman satu mobil, tapi yg ngawal ada
polisi, pm, bodyguard yg dibawa dari negaranya
sendiri, dll (tapi pecalang ga ada ).
kalo kayak gini teroris seperti gue
bener2 susah bergerak. |
|
|
dikabarkan

menurut temen gue, para delegasi itu dugem malemnya
*padahal sih hard rock lagi ulang taun, jadi masuknya
