..menara mulia lt 6..
YUP !!! Gue sekarang lagi ada di nokia, lagi pake laptop radja, sementara dia lagi meeting barengan ryan & ade. Gue disini dari jam 7, ternyata masih banyak orang pas gue dateng. Kebiasaan kalo dateng kesini pas udah jam 9 malem, jadi ya agak2x gak enak juga pas liat masih rame, heheheheeeee...
Sempet ngobrol2x ama pak Yadi, pak Joko, pak Surya, Icha, Villa and pastinya, ke tangga ama Agus & Ikhwan gokil. Dua orang pasangan homo (selain Radja & Ryan) yg gokil banget, gak ada matinya deh..
I kinda miss this office, actually.. Apa iya gue balik lagi kesini ? Secara Sandy udah gak ada disini, and Kelly mau cabut, now I'm thinking about the offer to rejoin Nokia. I know what the work would be, but I really have to think about the travel time of home-office-home. Gak tau lah, ini mungkin pemikiran sesaat ajah.
Enivei, sekian aja deh tulisan gue malem ini. Gue pengen pulang aja, secara mawar pupita niy, kekekekekeeeekkk...
..nokia's moments..
..ym status..
Tadi siang ada satu orang temen gue yg punya status ym kayak begini: "A man with a knowledge is a man whose not only love his enemy but also hate his friend." I didn't know where he quote this though, perhaps from the book he read or the Internet he browsed or sumwhere else, didn't wanna know anyway.
Well, I really against that quote. I mean, love your enemy is still making sense to me, as it's in order to know what actually in their thought. But hate your friend ?? How could you hate your friend if they're being nice to you, be there when you're down, giving you their shoulder to cry on, lending you the ears so you could tell them stories, laugh at you when you're happy and cry with you when you're sad ? How on earth you could hate your friend without any reason ? To me, friends are an important aspect in life, and if I have no friend, I shouldn't be considered as a human being. Cause as you all know, human being is a perfect social creature that God ever made, which means, we should be socializing with other people, and someday those people can turn to be our long-time friend.
So, reading that quote made me think that whoever wrote it must be a loner, and whoever agree with it must be one too. I mean, if you really wanna hate your friends, then why you bother spending your time to ever be friend with them from the beginning ?
I don't know, some people really think in a different way.. A way that nobody else could ever comprehend, sigh...
..me by guts..
Donald in nutshell
..Chika's baby gal..
..kangen..
He called me last nite.. Gosh, I think it's been a week or so I didn't see him. I missed him so much. Usually, at a time like this, he'd show up in my dream, but he didn't, I wonder why.. Although we still keep in touch, call each other at least once in a week and never miss any single day for sending sms, yet it still is different.
I used to go see him everytime I wanna, and most of the nites, I spent it with him. Nooooo, it's not that we had sex or whatever, but we just talked, talked about something stupid, something about our life, past, present and the future. He's the one that I feel so comfy with and the only person who I could open myself up. Yeah, I might be like an open book to most people, being so talkative, but there are few secrets which I only share it with him, nobody else know it, not even my family or my long-time best friends, especially people whom I know in the surface.
I love him in my own way, and he feels the same way too. In my whole life, I think he's the only guy that I could be friend with, feeling so close with, feeling dependent on, and never have any single moment where I want him more than just a friend. Nooooo, he's not a gay guy. He's married with two beautiful daughters and I often hang out with him & his wife and I love seeing them together.
I could call him in the middle of the nite when my legs got cramped, or got so tipsy and couldn't walk myself out to the car, and he would call me at 2 a.m. to remind me for shalat Tahajjud or call me just to say that some girls flirt with him. Altho we sometimes raised our tone for some simple stuffs, but in the end, I listen to him and obey his every words.
Now I miss him even more.. Aaaaaarrrrggghhh, I gotta see him tonite, see him and perhaps eating out in Edy Al Azhar.
Ledger's Death: Sleeping Pills, Anti-Anxiety Drugs Found at Scene
At 3:31 p.m., a masseuse arrived at the apartment in Manhattan's downtown SoHo neighborhood for an appointment with Ledger, police sources said. The masseuse was let in by a housekeeper, who then knocked on the door of Ledger's bedroom.
When no one answered, the housekeeper and the masseuse opened the bedroom and found the actor unconscious at the foot of the bed, naked and face-down. Police told ABC News they found bottles of Diazepam and Alprazolam, two anti-anxiety drugs, prescribed in Ledger's name.
The housekeeper and masseuse shook Ledger, but he did not respond. They then called the authorities, according to police.
Police added that they did not suspect foul play. Initial reports claimed actress Mary-Kate Olsen owned the apartment Ledger was found in, but police denied that the residence was Olsen's. A police source later said the maid or the housekeeper called Olsen and her security team responded to the apartment on Broome Street.
They said it was not clear who owned the apartment, but Ledger appeared to be a resident.
The superintendent of the building, Tamba Mossa, told ABCNEWS.com that Ledger had "been renting the apartment for about four months" but he didn't know who owned the residence. Mossa added that he was surprised to learn about Ledger's death, saying the actor had always been "very nice" and would often go on walks with his young daughter.
"We are all deeply saddened and shocked by this accident," Ledger's publicity agent said in a statement. "This is an extremely difficult time for his loved ones and we are asking the media to please respect the family's privacy and avoid speculation until the facts are known."
Ledger's family read a statement outside their home in Perth, Australia, Wednesday.
"We, Heath's family, can confirm the very tragic, untimely and accidental passing of our dearly loved son, brother and doting father of Matilda," his father Kim said.
Police said an autopsy will be performed on Wednesday.
Hollywood Reacts
News of Ledger's death hit Hollywood fast.
Two hours after his death was first reported, Nicole Kidman, who hails from Ledger's home country of Australia, released a statement to reporters saying, "What a tragedy. My heart goes out to his family."
"I had such great hope for him," Mel Gibson said in a statement to reporters. Gibson and Ledger worked together in 2000's "The Patriot."
"He was just taking off and to lose his life at such a young age is a tragic loss," he continued. "My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family."
Promising Career Cut Short
The Australian-born Ledger is probably best known for starring in 2005's "Brokeback Mountain," about two cowboys who fall in love. He earned Oscar, Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild nominations for that role.
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone's film critic, believes "Brokeback" will likely be the movie for which Ledger is remembered.
"He wanted to be an actor, not just a movie star," Travers said. "'Brokeback' was one of the greatest performances of an actor from his generation."
Ledger also met actress Michelle Williams while filming the movie. The couple had a very public romance, and a daughter, Matilda Rose, in October 2005.
In September 2007, Ledger and Williams separated. Ledger was rumored to be dating Australian model Gemma Ward shortly before his death.
Later this year, Ledger is slated to appear as the Joker in "The Dark Knight," the latest film in the Batman franchise. In a November interview with The New York Times, he revealed how he'd thrown himself into the role, saying, "Last week, I probably slept an average of two hours a night. … I couldn't stop thinking. My body was exhausted, and my mind was still going.''
According to the newspaper, he was taking the sleep medication Ambien to get rest, but to no avail. Ledger may be the second young actor to die from drug-related causes in 2008. On Jan. 15, actor Brad Renfro, 25, was found dead in his Los Angeles home. Though his cause of death has yet to be determined, he had a history of drug and alcohol abuse and had been arrested multiple times for drug possession.

..kantor kok mati lampu ??..
Dari 15 menit yang lalu, kantor gue mati lampu. Sempet panik, karena gue pikir LAN Network-nya juga mati. Untungnya gak.. Awal-awal siy gak berasa, tapi sekarang baru deh berasa panasnya plus layar yang menyilaukan buat kepala pusing. Gue jadi pengen ke PIM, menghabiskan waktu disana aja sembari nunggu PLN-nya on lagi.
Duh, namanya aja keren, tapi bayar listrik aja kok gak bisa (ato ini pemadaman dari PLN ?)
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh...
..tertipu ??..
Ada sms masuk ke hp gue, dari nomer: +6281330466667, isinya:
Selamat! Anda mend-dpt uang tunai sbsr Rp. 15jt dr undian TELKOMSEL POIN. Hub Call Center: 085230260188, 085230260177 Pengirim +777
Mau tau gak, apa yg gue jawab ke orang ini ? Gue bilang gini:
Klo mo nipu, maen yg cantik ya. 777 itu no hotline Indosat, bukan Tsel. Gue ini kerja di Tsel, ntar gue lacak loh :))
Gila ya, hari gini masih ada aja orang2x yang niat nipu lewat sms. Dan yang mengherankannya lagi, masi ada aja orang2x yg tertipu sama penipuan mereka. Salah satu korbannya ya ibu gue sendiri, 1 tahun kemarin. Padahal, dia udah sering banget denger cerita2x tentang penipuan ini, baik di TV, koran atopun dari cerita2x gue & kakak gue. Mungkin krn dia gak pernah curigaan ama orang (dia pikir, semua orang di dunia ini malaikat, sementara banyakan setannya daripada malaikat bukan ???), jadilah dia gampang percaya. Short story is, dia rugi 400ribu utk beliin si penipu itu voucher telp. Gue kasian, tapi mudah2xan ini jadi pelajaran berharga buat dia supaya tidak gampang percaya ama orang and tertipu lagi.
Jadi siapapun juga yang diluar sana, jangan percaya deh sama sms2x menipu kayak begini.

..gue hamil..
Bayangkan, kalo elo adalah seorang cowok, punya cewek yang udah lama jadi pacar lo dan bakal nikah ama dia dalam hitungan waktu, trus tiba-tiba ada cewek yang ngomong begini ke elo yang notabene she's just your fling. The case is, you slept with her once, just that once.. Nah, what would your reaction be ? Apakah elo akan freak out dan langsung ninggalin dia tanpa pernah mau tau apa yang terjadi sama cewek ini ? Apakah elo akan meragukan omongannya karena elo beranggapan she's fooling around with many guys ? Atau elo akan ajak ngomong dia dengan kepala dingin dan mempercayai semua omongannya ? Apakah elo akan menyarankannya untuk menggugurkan kandungannya yg baru beberapa minggu itu ? Apakah elo akan jujur ke pacar & keluarga loe bahwa elo telah menghamili anak orang dengan konsekwensi elo harus menikahi your fling dan mengabaikan emotional feeling you have built with your long-time girlfriend plus merusak hubungan keluarga antara lo dan pacar lo ? Atau elo tetep nikah dengan pacar elo trus menikahi cewek ini secara siri ?
Trus, bayangkan juga, kalo elo adalah ceweknya.. What would you do ? Apakah elo akan datang ke cowok itu dan meminta pertanggungjawabannya ? Iya kalo dia mau nikahin elo, tapi kalo gak ? What would you do next ? Would you still keep the baby or have an abortion ? Apakah elo akan cerita ke keluarga elo dimana elo tau elo akan mengecewakan seluruh anggota keluarga elo and konsekwensi terburuknya adalah diungsikan ke lain tempat, ataukah elo akan keep it as a secret ? Apakah elo akan keluar dari kerjaan elo karena elo gak sanggup melihat cibiran temen2x kantor elo karena elo hamil diluar nikah ato elo akan tetap bekerja seperti biasanya dan gak peduli dengan omongan orang lain ? Apakah elo akan menarik diri dari lingkungan pertemanan elo karena elo malu banget dengan yang terjadi dengan elo dan elo takut temen2x elo akan mentertawakan elo, atau elo akan bilang ke mereka secara jujur bahwa elo hamil diluar nikah dan disitulah elo akan tau mana temen sejati elo ?
Begitu banyak perandai-andaian lainnya dari masalah yang cukup kompleks ini, terutama karena kita tinggal di Indonesia, yg menganut & menjunjung tinggi budaya ketimuran. Semua ini, sampai sekarang, masih dianggap hal yang tabu. Andai saja society & her family giving their best support untuk si cewek yang hamil diluar nikah ini, mungkin aja pertanyaan2x yang ada di atas akan jarang terlontar.
Tapi I need to know, if you're the guy or the girl (I refuse to use the word "victim" karena tidak ada keterpaksaaan when they're having sex), what would you do ?

..dalam diam..
Dalam diam,
Aku berpikir
Akan makna hidup ini
Perjalanan yang kulalui
Pengalaman yang kudapati
Semuanya nyata
Tapi apa..??
Aku masih tak mengerti
Begitu tololnyakah aku ?
Atau buta ?
Ataaauuu…??
Aaaaaaah… Persetan dengan semua ini !!

..S.O.S..
Two doors
Which to choose?
Alone
Nobody to ask for help
Dark, and I’m clueless
There, the way out
Frozen mind instead
Clueless
Wish of goin back
Yet I've bound with a vow
Anyone there ?
GOD ??
Heee...llp ???

..40th Anniversary..
Setelah liat tanggalan, baru ngeh kalo hari ini tgl 14 Januari. If only my dad still alive, I bet that tonite, we're gonna have a big dinner celebrating 40th wedding anniversary of my parents.. Jadi inget, waktu dulu setiap mau tgl 14 Januari, pasti gue & kedua kakak gue yang sibuk mikir mau ngasih kado apa ke mereka. Mungkin krn gue yg paling kecil, jadi kadang ide gue gak dipertimbangkan (hmmm, tapi kayaknya gue juga gak pernah ngasih ide ke mereka, hehehehee...)
Kita selalu ngasih di malam hari, pas udah ngumpul semua di rumah. Paling seneng kalo liat ibu bapakkyu ngebuka kadonya. Muka mereka pasti yang seneeeeeeeng banget, sekaligus terharu. Kita pernah ngasih gelas Mama - Papa yang dulu kayaknya in the mode banget, trus lampu keramik kecil lambang unicorn (baru nyadar sekarang, kenapa juga kakak gue ngasih yg lambangnya unicorn ??), patung sejenis mannekin pis di brussel utk ditaro di meja rias emak gue, trus gue lupa apaan lagi.
Yg jelas, selain kado2x itu, kita juga pasti nyari kartu yang lucu2x untuk mereka and dirayain pake dinner di luar. Dinnernya gak tentu pas malem anniversary, umumnya siy pas malem minggunya, jadi sekeluarga rame2x keluar, makan malem sama2x.
Hmmmm, udah lama banget gue gak ngerasain masa2x kayak gitu. Udah mau 9 taun gak ada lagi yg namanya perayaan ulang taun perkawinan, walopun nyokap gue sempat ngerayain sendiri pada taun pertama ia ditinggal bokap. Jadi ngebayangin, gimana kalo bapak gue masih ada ya ? Gue & kakak2x gue akan ngasih apa ke mereka ? Hmmm, secara gue sekarang udah bisa ngasih ide, mungkin selain kartu, bunga & cake dari Harvest (yg blueberry enak banget, pasti bapak gue seneng banget..), kita akan ngajak mereka ke Pure Restaurant yg bekas Empire Grill (my dad love steak so much..) trus disana, kita bakal ngasih kadonya, sembari diiringi lagu2x melankolis. Oya, kadonya sendiri itu karikatur foto pernikahan mereka ditambah dengan gambar anak & cucu-nya..
Sudah sudah sudah, gue gak mau nangis di kantor ah.. I love you mom & dad, and I really wish that you still alive, Dad, so I could give you what I wrote here.. I really really miss your presence (dan akyu pun tak kuasa menitikkan air mata..)
..an eye opening..
Kemaren pagi, gue nonton Oprah di Metro TV yang mengulas buku The Secret, and berbagai hal tentang kehidupan. That moment, gue hanya melihat, tidak mencerna malah cenderung skeptis. Selesai nonton, gak ada sama sekali yg nempel, padahal kata orang2x, buku The Secret itu bagus.
Trus sorenya, gue janjian ketemu ama Chika di Adorama Kemang. Berhubung laper, jadilah kita makan di Tamnak Thai, sementara Yoki konsen berkutat dengan PC-nya di Gloria Jeans.
Pembicaraan kita bedua itu tadinya yg simple2x aja, secara gue udah 1 bulan lebih gak ketemu dia. Dari mulai ngobrolin kehamilan dia yang prediksinya sekitar 1 minggu lagi dari mulai cari nama, hypno birthing, obat2xan, tanggung jawab sbg orang tua, flash back ke kehidupan usia 20-30 th and so on and so on, jadinya berkembang and melebar ke topik2x yang sebenernya dibahas ama Oprah tadi pagi.
Gue akui, Chika diantara kita ber-7 itu yang paling sabar & paling dewasa pemikirannya. Ayu memang sabar juga, tapi dia yang suka kurang bersuara. Dewi itu lebih banyak bicara, kalo denger ceritanya, hidupnya sangat sangat dinamis, kadang kayak kehidupan sinetron2x indonesia saking banyak ceritanya. Bebta itu moody-an. Pane itu cuek banget, tapi anaknya straight forward banget. Iting itu tukang nyolot, gak mau kalah, gak sabaran and gue, ya mungkin bisa dikategorikan seperti Iting. Makanya, gue paling sering berantem ama Iting, dimana Chikalah yang jadi penengah.
Enivei, back to last nite.. Ternyata menyenangkan and cukup seru perbincangan kita berdua. Bener2x eye opening banget. Ada beberapa yang dibahas yang sebenernya udah gue lakuin, tapi masih setengah2x. It's all about keep on believing, have faith that it'll happen in anytime soon. Jujur, I don't like having hope, in fact, I hate having hope cause I don't like failing. Tapi, dari pembicaraan semalem itu, sedikit banyak merubah pola pikir gue. Ada dua hal yang diajarin ama dia (well, sebenernya gak diajarin kayak guru, tapi disarankan untuk dicoba). Yang pertama, belajar menahan ego dalam waktu 7 hari. Tapi, once kita mulai berpikiran negatif, kita harus jujur dg diri sendiri and mulai lagi dari Day 1, walopun kita udah berada di Day 6. Yang kedua, make a list of what your wishes are and percaya kalo yang ditulis itu akan kejadian. Walopun gue suka berbicara dg diri sendiri sebelum tidur, just being grateful to God for whatever happen in my life & ask myself what I need in this life, tapi menurut dia, gue masih perlu buat daftar itu for my reminder.
Dua hal itu bener2x kena di gue and pengen banget gue lakuin. Gue harus percaya that everything can happen and gue harus bisa mengendalikan ego & emosi gue. Gue selesai ngobrol ama Chika sekitar jam 9.30an, and balik dari Kemang, sepanjang perjalanan ke rumah I'm convincing myself that I could do this and I can grow my faith back. And gue gak boleh menganggap semua ini susah.
Tadi pagi, gue bangun dengan perasaan yang lebih ringan, krn gue punya niatan, gue harus bisa meredam emosi gue.. Somehow gue merasa cerah ceria banget :)) Tapi, tadi siang otw ke rumah, gue secara tidak sengaja meng-holy crap-pin mobil lain, jadilah gue harus mengulang Day 1 gue besok.
Seru juga kalo gue bisa meredam ego & emosi gue, yang jelas mungkin perasaan & hidup gue akan lebih ringan. Karena kadang at the end of the day, gue suka pusing karena kebanyakan cursing, terutama di kantor.
Intinya adalah, I love you, Chika for last nite.. Hari Minggu kita lanjutin lagi yaaaaaa...
..maen badminton di siang bolong..
Tadi siang pas lunch break, gue balik ke rumah. Jalanan lancar seperti biasa, mungkin krn gue keluarnya bertepatan sama orang2x yang lagi siap2x mau soljum, only took me 20 mins.
Nyampe rumah, ngeliat Nadia lagi mukul2x kok badminton ndirian di teras rumah. Karena kesyan gak ada yang nemenin dia maen, jadilah gue maxain diri untuk nemenin dia. Mau tau kenapa gue bilang maxain diri ? Soalnya, seumur2x, gue belum pernah maen yang namanya badminton. Waktu beberapa taun yang lalu siy pernah nyoba maen ma Mbak Dest, tapi pas mau nge-serve itu, gak pernah kena, padahal itu kok udah nempel di depan raket, siap dipukul, tapi yang ada gue selalu mukul angin. Yang ada gue nyerah, gak mau maen lagi, padahal mbak Desy udah menyemangati gue..
Makdarit, sebelum maen, gue bilang ke Nadia dulu, "Nad, Tia belum pernah maen badminton, jadi kalo gak bisa, jangan diketawain yah.." Eh ternyataaaaaa, gue bisa maennya sekarang boooo. Trus, saking senengnya dg kenyataan bahwa gue akhirnya bisa juga maen badminton, selain emang panas banget, kita bedua pada keringetan and mesti break dulu, krn gue mau ganti baju and kita bedua yg kehausan gitu. Setelah orang-orang pada selesai soljum, kita bedua langsung nyelesain permainan, secara males banget kalo lagi maen trus ada banyak orang lewat depan pager and kalo ada yg kenal, mau gak mau kan harus senyum & bertegur sapa, heheheheeeee..
Gara2x abis maen kali ya, jadinya kita bedua tuh laper berats. Makan tuh ampe lahap banget, mana ibu masak sayur asem-asem buncis, segeeeeerrrrrrr.. Sekitar jam 1an, sebelum balik lagi ke kantor, gue maen bentar ama Ano. Karena gue harus balik ke kantor, jadilah Nadia ngegantiin gue. Padahal Nadia udah nyuruh gue bolos aja, bilangnya gini, "Tia, bolos aja. Bilang kalo Tia sakit.." Heheheheeeee, anak jaman sekarang 
Bakalan sering maen badminton ama Nadia niy, soalnya ternyata maen badminton itu gampang.. Btw, bisa ada efek samping dg badan jadi lebih kurus gak ya ? *gubrax*

..pagi ini..
This was taken less than an hour ago. I was soooooo sleepy. For 2 weeks already, I always slept after 2 am. Nope, it's not that I hang out and partying hard then come home late everyday (yet I only had it during weekend), but it's because I'm in progress translating the book. It's my first translation project (and hopefully more to come..). So last nite, I felt my head was gonna blow up real soon and so at 12:30, I stopped working and slept early.
This morning, I really didn't wanna wake up at all, still wanna be attached to bed. Yet, duty call and here I am.. I was trying to get back to sleep, at least for 15 mins, but 5 mins already did me good.
Anyway, gotta get back to work now..
..udah 17..
..which suits my face ??..
Tadi gue ke PIM, trus iseng2x aja ke Optik Seis. Pengen juga ganti kacamata, krn kacamata terakhir yg gue buat itu 2 taun yg lalu. Cuma, gue agak bingung dg model kacamata mana yang seharusnya gue ambil. Sebenernya gue gak gitu sreg dg model2x yang sekarang, karena rata2x pada kotak gitu, tapi ya mau gimana lagi, like it or not, there's no other model of frame. From A & B pix, which one do you think suits my face ? Pix A is a Jean Paul Gaultier's glasses with dark purple frame (i love the color). Pix B is a Fendi's glasses with red frame. I like B better though, but still need second, third or eleventh opinion 
Anyone can help me to decide ?
..BLAKE LEWIS !!..
The runner up for AI season 6, the most finest performer AI ever has. Well, Elliott Yamin does have a wonderful voice to sing any song, but Blake is great in his own way, BEAT BOXING !! I love this guy, the moment he auditioned for AI and singing Crazy by Seal.. I was thrilled knowing he got the golden ticket to Hollywood. And he was my favorite ever since.
Enivei, sesiangan tadi, gue nge-download lagu2x dia dari mp and gue seneng banget ama lagu what'cha got 2 lose, gots to get her, 1000 miles, and break anotha yang juga dijadiin first single-nya. Di what'cha got 2 lose sebenernya agak2x N'Sync, tapi musiknya siy Blake banget, secara dia juga beat boxing disana.
Hmmm, harusnya ini gue nulisnya di "..ulasan.." yah. Well, sutra lah, males juga copy-and-pastenyah. Well, semoga aja album dia akan ada disini, which I doubt it, secara Taylor Hicks aja gak keluar unless pesen dulu di Duta Suara. Untuk yg pengen ngedenger lagu2x yang gue sebut itu, cek aja ke bagian musik gue.
Gue pengen lagi ngedownload video-nya yg Bshorty grabs mic, you give love a bad name and yg dia audisi AI. Tapi berhubung vixy.net-nya lagi aneh, jadi mungkin besok2x baru gue upload.
..bbbaa bbaack tooo wooorrr rrrr rrkkk.. (kenapa jadi kayak orang gagap instead of beat boxing ya ??)
..malem minggu..
Malem minggu kemaren, I ended up in Vino Embassy (again!!), padahal baru berselang 4 hari gue kesana. Sama sekali gak direncanain untuk hang out disana lagi.
Jadi malem minggu itu gue ke resepsi pak Gede di Clubhouse Pd. Indah Golf. Banyak banget anak2x project Nokia and I still felt that I belong with them, a part of them. Sampe anak2x bandung aja dateng. Too bad gue gak sempet foto2x ama mereka, krn gue sibuk bertegur sapa ama mereka and asli, rameeeeeee banget, jadi males juga ngeluarin kamera
Enivei, abis kawinan ituh, tadinya mau gaul ama Praba, Soren & Dave. Tapi berhubung mereka harus nemenin orang Tsel Bandung, jadilah cuma gue, Ge & Dheva yg available untuk lanjut. Sementara Ryan & Opy mesti ke rumah dulu balikin anak2xnya.
Kita bertiga menuju Kamasutra, tapi ternyata pas nyampe sana tempatnya tutup krn lagi under renovation. Aneh deh, padahal tempat itu baru buka loh. Trus, berhubung tujuan kita adalah menonton "musik hidup", and kita sudah ada di Crowne Plaza, jadi tempat yang terdekat adl Black Cat, Plaza Senayan. Ryan & Opy ternyata udah nyampe duluan, and dia bilang kalo tempatnya penuuuuuh banget. Kita ketemu mereka di pintu depan, lagi ngerokok. Dia siy udah masukin namanya di waiting list, tapi daripada nunggu di atas yang penuh banget, jadilah mereka nungguin kita di pintu depan ituh. Sembari ngerokok, kita perhatiin banyak banget orang-orang yang "non Indonesia". Weeeeeeeell, we truly ain't a racist, tapi ngeliat tempat gaul itu lebih banyak orang Cinere ato Timur Tengah, kita jadi merasa seperti kaum minoritas.
Akhirnya, setelah ke atas, ngecek black cat and ternyata kita masih di urutan yang ke-sekian, kita putuskan utk pindah tempat ke vino ajah. Nyampe vino sekitar jam 12an. Untung masih ada tempat duduk di dalem Vino. Ada yang ironis.. Pas kita duduk, tepat di meja deket pintu masuk Vino, ada satu grup, dimana salah satunya ada cewek berjilbab. Well, kita emang bukan a good religious person, tapi di mata kita, seharusnya cewek yang berjilbab itu bisa menjaga imejnya. Kalo emang pengen banget minum wine, kenapa juga dia gak buka jilbabnya dulu. Ato mungkin dibawa pulang aja itu wine, jadi pas selama di Vino, dia minum air putih aja. Ya suka-suka dia siy emang, tapi tetep aja, sangat bertentangan dengan apa yang dia kenakan..
Berhubung di dalem Vino sumpek & musiknya terlalu jedang jedung, jadilah kita pindah keluar, and bener2x duduk di area luar deket parkiran mobil. Kita pesen makan, karena masih pada laper and selama di resepsi gak makan banyak. Setelah pesen, makanan dateng, hmmm, agak2x kecewa dengan porsinya yang imut2x and sama sekali gak nendang untuk orang yang seharian belum makan apapun. Setelah fettuccine mushroom gue habis, gue pesen lagi tuna sandwich. Asli, lapeeeeeerrrr bangetttt.
Nah, sembari nunggu makanan dateng, kita pindah kursi lagi, kali ini ke bagian dalam, di depan wine shop-nya. And kita pun juga mesen botol yg kedua. Wine pilihan gue emang gak salah deh, Auslesse Qualiteitwessen. White wine yg manis, tapi cukup nendang..
Setelah ngobrol tentang cerita horor, lovelife gue yg gak jelas, and tetek bengek lainnya, gak berasa udah jam 3 lewat. Wuidiiiih, kayak masih jam 7 malem ajah, masih rame.. Opy & Ryan pisah ama kita betiga. Untung banget Ge mau gue ajak nginep, soalnya di depan rumah gue, tepatnya di tiang listrik depan rumah itu, ada kunti yg lagi gendong bayi (anjrit! gue merinding niy sekarang). And nyokap gue itu cerita beberapa saat sebelum gue cabut ke resepsi pak gede. Sebeeeeeeeeelllll banget, kenapa juga ibu gue mesti cerita pas malem itu juga.
Enivei, setelah kita berdua ngedropin Dheva di Komdak utk cari taxi, we're heading home. Sampe rumah, pas banget ama nyokap gue yang mau berangkat ke mesjid. Udah subuh ternyata, pantesan udah ngantuk. Jadilah, nyampe kamar, ganti baju, beres2x, trus langsung tidur..
Hoaheeeeeemmmm..
..anomali..
Sekarang gue lagi di anomali, ama anto, risty, david, henny, michael, miun and didi. Sembari nungguin gue akses group folder kantor, jadilah gue blogging aja. Enivei, gue tadi abis ngantor langsung menuju Menara Mulia, nemuin anak2x nokia, my crazy people who balances my life. Those crazy guys who be there for me in my depress moment in Nokia..
Tadi pas gue nyampe nokia, seperti biasa langsung ke harum sari dunk. And disana udah ngumpul anak2x. Ada pak Estu, bos Agus, koko Daniel, pak Yudi, Ryan, Ismu, Ikhwan gokil. Asli, gue kangeeeeeeeen banget ama mereka. Udah lebih dari sebulan gue gak ketemu mereka. Ngobrol2x gokil ngalor ngidul ama mereka. Terus ketemu beberapa driver juga, ada pak Bujang, pak Yusnadi and pak Haryadi. Pak Haryadi yg ngobrol ama gue, and curhat mengenai keadaan driver sekarang. Well, gue kesian juga si dengernya, tapi what else I could do ?
Enivei, gue cabut dari sana sekitar jam 8, krn gue mesti kesini. Untung aja besok ada resepsi pak Gede, jadi gue bisa ketemuan ama mereka lagi.
Oya, this morning I got a sad news from Joel. His wife passed away last nite. Emang udah lama siy istrinya sakit, sekitar 5 tahunan. Sakit karena penyakit lupus, and sempet kena stroke juga. Yah, menurut gue, lebih baik begitu, karena kasian juga kalo hidup terlalu lama tapi gak bisa menikmati hidup karena sakit.
O well, segini aja cerita gue untuk hari ini.. Eitttts, belum deng. Tadi siang pas makan siang, gue balik ke rumah. Ternyata menyenangkan juga loh bisa pulang ke rumah pas lunch break. Kayaknya gue bakalan pulang ke rumah trus tiap lunch break hari jumat. Mumpung waktu istirahatnya lebih lama, heheheheeeee...
Owkay, gue back to the crowd and to my group folder lagih..

..release your stress..
..finally !!..
Yup !! Akhirnya gue bisa upload foto dan menampilkan display yg sesuai dg apa yg gue upload. Setelah gagal via JavaTool trus bisa upload via HTML tapi display-nya gak sesuai, akhirnya gue coba last option, yaitu posting photo via email. Untungnya yg terakhir ini kooperatif sekali, jadinya foto2x yg kemaren dulu dah gue upload, gue remove and gue ganti dg postingan foto yg dari imel.
Legaaaaaaaaa, banget. Akhirnya bisa terselesaikan juga issue ini. Now, I can get back to work :))

..ibukyu..
Gue lagi ngetes ngirim foto via imel. Naaaaah, jadilah gue ngirim foto ibu gue ajah, secara kan ini juga foto terbarunya and kecantikan ibu gue masih terpancar banget di foto ini. Kalo kata orang2x, ntar gue tuanya akan mirip dia. Hmmmm, gak usah orang2x itu bilang ke gue, gue sendiri pun udah membayangkan kalo ntar tuanya gue akan mirip dia (Insya Allah masih dikasih umur panjang ama Allah yah).
Btw, I'm still frustrating dengan upload foto..
