..membezuk zus beb..

yesterday, me, chika & merry went to bandung to visit my dearest friend, jeng beb which has to do a minor surgery. Ini sebenernya dadakan, karena all of us got da news from bebta 1 day before her surgery. This idea just came up gegara ym conference with da Co7 and I was so excited to go, but really couldn't promise my gals that I could come since I'm in the middle of preparing the September report. Luckily, at the end of the day, my part is done & I called pak Jeff & asking him if I could take 1 day leave. Thankfully, without asking too much details from me, he said ok to me.

Jam 6:20, ay cabs ke rumah Cq and 1 hour later, I showed up at her house. Ternyata miss peyn dah ada disana & lagi Kirana-sitting. Tanpa perlu basa basi (maklum, her house is like a 2nd house to all of us), jadi langsung ke meja makan utk brekkie. Selesai brekkie, miss peyn pake acara pupita dulu, padahal we were all so ready to go. Untung pupitanya gak lama, jadi sekitar jam 8:30, kita cabs ke Bandung.

As usual, I was the driver for this trip. Jalanan cikampek gak gitu macet, mungkin krn week days. Di KM 59, kita mampir bentar untuk beli donat & minum. Ya ya ya, I knew I just had my b'fast, but I need to chew and Dunkin's billboard is so tempting, heheheheeeeee... And in this place, I bumped into one gorgeous French tall guy wearing a pink polo shirt whom made me jaw-dropping and losing my concentration of what Chika & Merry's talking about. Really, he was just drop dead gorgeous and it's been way too long I didn't see cute guys *BIG devilish grin* So it's a pretty nice entertainment & refreshment for me at 9 in the morning (THANK YOU LORD !!!)

We didn't stop for long, so after we bought everything we need, we continue the trip to Bandung. We got to Bandung at 10:30 and went straight to the hospital. After asking the receptionist, they directed us to O.D.S and we had to ask the security guard about the procedure to pay a visit. He told us that we have to wait and he'll come to us whenever he got the green light from the nurse at O.D.S. So we wait lah..

45 mins later, we all got messages from Bebta that she just finished her surgery. Up to this moment, she didn't have any clue that the 3 of us were already at the hospital. Well, we meant it to be a surprise anyway. Trus kita ke guard-nya lagi, telling him that we got messages from her which we assume that she's ok to be visited. After checking with the nurse inside, he allowed us to go in, but with one condition, the baby should not come along. So Chika & Merry went first while I baby-sit Kirana.

Perhaps 10 mins later, Chika came out and it's my turn to go to her room. When I came, she shed a bit of tears.. Yes, she was touched by us coming to Bandung to give her the support. Well darling, if you were one of us, you'd do the same thing pastinya laaaaaah.. Tapi emang such a friend yah, secara dia abis did the minor surgery, tapi malah dibecandain and teuteuuuuuppp, poto2x and membuat keramean :))

Sekitar jam 12, berhubung pada lapar & tokh we'll be back to hospital to pick Bebta, so we decided to go find our lunch in Rumah Mode. Heheheheeeeee, we couldn't figure out something else where we could shop & eat. Rumah Mode di waktu weekend & weekdays is totally different, mulai dari nyari tempat parkir, keramaian, cari2x baju di dalam, ampe nyoba bajunya, sangat menyenangkanlah pokoknya..

Bebta menilpun jam 1, and she said that she's all set up and waiting at the lobby, but she said that we just take our time for lunch. So after lunch, we went inside for a little shopping. Turns out, it's not that little for me, as I bought 2 items, a stuffed animal (finally, I have a camel) and a black knee-high short. Bebta called again at 2, and ternyata, there has been a misunderstanding. I thought she needs to go see her doc again, and that's what I told chika & merry, so we just took our time to look around. Yet apparently, she didn't need to go to her doc again. Thankfully, we all are ready to go, so we rushed back to the car and heading to the hospital to pick her.

Dari RS, kita mampir dulu ke Putri Snack utk beli Keripik Tempe buat Ibunda & keripik kentang buat kakakku si gondut. Abis itu langsung ke Up Town krn Bebta wanna have a glass of strawberry juice. Sampe di Up Town, Bebta & Merry langsung jajan, tapi gue malah nyebrang ke Kartika Sari utk beli brownies (buat ibunda juga) & roti cream isi keju buat para krucil di rumah. Abis dari Kartika Sari, back to Up Town utk naro belanjaan di mobil then I headed to Edward Forrer utk browsing in case ada sepatu yang baru. It was one my lucky day. I finally found a black hi-heels shoes, tali2x gitu and nyaman banget dipakenya. Mau tau berapa tinggi haknya ? 7 cm ajah. Jadi kalo gue pake, tinggi gue jadi 179 cm, hihihihiiiiiiii, senangnyah !!

Setelah Edward Forrer, balik lagi ke Up Town. Niatan hati gak mau belanja lagi yaaaaa, eh, gue malah nemu atasan yang luncang. Mending kalo 1, tapi it's 2 cute top, kekekekeeeeekkk... After Up Town, it's already 5ish, so we thought of having a cup of coffee in a cozy place. Bebta suggests us to go to Arisan and it was indeed a comfy place with a very reasonable price. The decor inside is soooooo beautiful. I love the bathroom though, so retro.

Round 7, Ade Rita & Ryan Bayem came by. Ade is 4-mths old pregnant and she looks beautiful. Dia lagi ada kerjaan di Bandung, and since she's pregnant, jadilah Ryan yang menjadi supirnya, hihihihiiii.. Dah lama banget gak ketemu ama mereka berdua, walo masih tetep berhubungan. Gak berapa lama, my NSN's friends, Boy & om Jack stopped by. They were in Bandung since Wednesday, and they stopped by cause they miss me (hiks, jadi terharu deeeeeh...). Tapi berhubung mereka mau makan di tempat lain, so they were there around 5-10 mins. Senangnya denger kabar kalo both guys stop smoking. Kalo Boy udah stop dari 3 bulan yang lalu, while om Jack dah dari 5 bulan yang lalu. Hayo, laksanakan hidup sehat !!!

Sudah mau jam 8, and we needed to head back to Jakarta. Rencananya, kita mau nganter Bebta pulang ke rumahnya, tapi berhubung zus beb belum mau pulang, jadilah dia pindah mobil, ikut bersama Ryan & Ade. Precisely at 8:08 kita cabs dari Bandung and the road in Cikampek was bad, although not so jamming, but still, it was bad.. So many big trucks that stays in the right lane in a slow speed. Aaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrgggggggggghhhhhhhh !!!!! Finally, we got to Chika's house at 10:15 and I didn't stay for chit chat (nor Merry) as it's too late already, so we split there and went back to our home, well, our folk's home :))

Lagi mbaca2x postingan blog Tobi, trus nemu link ini. Jadilah ay coba2x masukkeun nama ay, and inilah hasilnya :

Your number is: 1

The characteristics of #1 are: Initiating action, pioneering, leading, independent, attaining, individual.

The expression or destiny for #1:
A number 1 Expression denotes the skilled executive with keen administrative capabilities. You must develop the capacity to be a fine leader, sales executive, or promoter. You have the tools to become an original person with a creative approach to problem solving, and a penchant for initiating action. Someone may have to follow behind you to handle the details, but you know how to get things going and make things happen. You have a good mind and the ability to use it for your advancement. Because of these factors, you have much potential for achievement and financial rewards. Frequently, this expression belongs to one running a business or striving to achieve a level of accomplishment on ones talents and efforts. You have little need for much supervision, preferring to act on your own with little restraint. You are both ambitious and determined. Self-confident and self-reliant must be yours, as you develop a strong unyielding will and the courage of your convictions.

Although you fear loneliness, you want to be left alone. You fear routine and being in a rut. You often jump the gun because you are afraid of being left behind.

The negative attributes of the 1 Expression are egotism and a self-centered approach to life. This is an aggressive number and if it is over-emphasized it is very hard to live with. You do not have to be overly aggressive to fulfill your destiny. The 1 has a natural instinct to dominate and to be the boss; adhering to the concept of being number One. Again, you do not have to dominate and destroy in order to lead and manage.

Your Soul Urge number is: 6

A Soul Urge number of 6 means:
With a number 6 Soul Urge, you would like to be appreciated for your ability to handle responsibility. Your home and family are likely to be a strong focus for you, perhaps the strongest focus of your life. Friendship, love, and affection are high on your list of priorities for a happy life. You have a lot of diplomatic tendencies in your makeup, as you a able to rectify and balance situations with an innate skill. You like working with people rather than by yourself. It is extremely important for you to have harmony in your environment at all times.

The positive side of the 6 Soul Urge produces a huge capacity for responsibility; you are always there and ready to assume more than your share of the load. If you possess positive 6 Soul Urges and express them, you are known for your generosity, understanding and deep sympathetic attitude. Strong 6 energy is very giving of love, affection, and emotional support. You may have the inclination to teach or serve your community in other idealistic ways. You have natural abilities to help people. You are also likely to have artistic and creative leanings.

If you have an over-supply of 6 energy in your makeup, you may express some of the negative traits common to this number. With such a strong sympathetic attitude, it is easy to become too emotional. Sometimes the desires to render help can be over done, and it can become interfering and an attitude that is too protective, rather than helpful. The person with too much 6 energy often finds that people tend to take advantage of this very giving spirit. You may tend to repress your own needs so that you can cater to the demands from others. At times, there may be a tendency in this, for becoming over-loaded with such demands, and as a result become resentful.

Your Inner Dream number is: 22

An Inner Dream number of 22 means:
You dream of being a master organizer and a builder of monumental projects; of guiding a truly huge endeavor. Your secret fantasy is to think big and imagine what could be done for the world. You may also dream of the huge rewards.

..belajar mbatik..

Actually, I almost forget about this event. Untung aja, pas jumat kemaren, gue iseng liat my calendar event and ternyata ada kegiatan belajar membatik di Museum Gajah. Untung aja ada link mp bu Indra di event-nya, jadi gue langsung meluncur ke mp beliau and siang itupun gue transfer ke bu Indra & saved a seat for me. Aman deh !!

Minggu jam 9 pagi, gue udah meluncur ke Museum Gajah. Eeeeeeh, ternyata jalanan lancar bangettttt, secara cuma butuh 30 menit aja dari rumah. Jadi gue sempet jalan2x di Museum Gajah gedung barunya, and sekitar jam 10 kurang, baru deh ke bawah utk ngikutin sesi mbatik inih. Ternyata peminatnya cukup banyak, and walo bisa ditebak, mayoritas yang ikut adalah cewek. Kalo gak salah, cowoknya cuma 1, and to my surprise, he's not a gay, heheheheeeee..

Sesi pertama adalah presentation by ibu Indra sendiri, yang ngasih tau basic info ttg batik. Presentasi kira2x took only 15 mins, abis itu, kita pindah tempat & ngambil posisi masing2x untuk mulai membatik. Setelah diajarin mengenai cari ngambil lilin dari cantingnya & gimana posisi tangan yang benar, barulah kita dipersilahkan untuk memulai membatik.

Sempet mblobor2x siy lilinnya, tapi kata mbak Sri (ini nama mbak2x yang ngawasin), turis2x Jepang itu kalo nyari batik, emang nyari yg mblobor, ketauan asli batik tulis katanyah. Hmmm, kira2x ada orang Jepang yang mau mbeli batik gue gak yah ? Kekekekeeeekk..

Gak berasa, ternyata hampir 1 jam gue membatik, padahal ukurannya gak gede2x amat, seukuran sapu tangan standar gitu deh. Makluuuuuum, kan masih amatir kitah, namanya juga masih belajar :)) Setelah itu, kaos yang sudah gue beri lilin itu gue kasih ke mas Slamet utk kemudian dia beritahu cara memberi warnanya. Hmmmm, dari jaman gue SD, gue sebenernya paling gak bisa pake kuas warna (kalo sekarang siy bisa make kuas hanya utk make up, heheheheee...). Jadi dengan susah payah, dengan kaki yang mulai kebas & keteguhan hati (maaf, mulai lebay), gue memberi warna ke batik gue ituh.

Akhirnya, kaos batik gue selesai juga and menurut ibu & para ponakan gue yang nungguin, hasilnya bagus. Well, gak tau mereka bo'ong ato gak, tapi yang pasti, I'm pretty satisfied with my result and kalo next time ada pelajaran mbatik lagi, mungkin gue akan ikut lagi.
