This Sunday ::: Getaway and Thinking
Yup! Hari ini kan ga ada oikos, jadi tadi siang aku maen ke rumah Momon (temen komsel), makan nasgor bikinan dia trus jalan-jalan naek motor hihihihi...
Pertama kita ke Carrefour PanjangJiwo coz dia cuman mau ngecek ATM doang, trus ke Bilka bentar, trus ke Zanggrandi (termasuk salah satu kuliner khas di Surabaya), trus ke Mirota (toko 4 lantai jual semua barang-barang khas Indonesia, di sana berasa lagi pergi ke Jogja hehehe...), trus ke Elizabeth (one of bags famous brand). Mirota ama Elizabeth itu sama-sama di jalan Gubeng. Then ke Carrefour PanjangJiwo lagi terakhir sebelon nganterin Momon balik ke rumahnya. Asik banget hihihi... Baru nyampe kos jam 19:30.
Tadi di Elizabeth beli celana jeans selutut buat ntar dipake ke Bali pas Desember ke sana ama Kezia, mumpung nemu celana jeans pendek yang pas banget, bahannya juga rada lentur ga kaku, harganya 80 rebu, jadi langsung deh hehehe.... secara kalo lagi butuh beli celana jeans jarang bisa langsung nemu yang pas kayak gitu.
Di Zanggrandi asli aku memuaskan hasrat hahaha... makan noodle ice cream ama milkshake coklat hihihihi.... secara jarang-jarang banget bisa ke sana, udah lama juga ga makan ice cream, enak banget soalnya Surabaya lagi panas hawanya, sumuk abiez... Nongkrong di Zanggrandi sambil ngobrol-ngobrol ama Momon... dikuatkan lagi untuk teteup percaya bahwa future mate itu masih akan datang... Kah Ming Soon hihihihi... Ya ga cuman ngobrol soal itu doang siy, banyak yang laen juga...
Udah lama banget ga nemu temen jalan yang enak kayak dulu pas kuliah hehehe... Kita dah planning ntar kalo bisa jalan-jalan lagi bakal ke mana aja hehehehe... Asik asik... ^o^ Soalnya asli belakangan dah beberapa bulan ini aku boring banget... pengen ngelakuin banyak hal yang fresh, yang baru... Pengen kerjaan baru juga siy hehehe...
Trus... barusan nemu pas googling les vokal... bener-bener pas kayak yang aku pengen 'n yang cocok ama kondisiku... Aku kan kerja kantor... jadi pengennya les vokal yang fleksibel soalnya aku pernah tanya ke tempat les vokal Purwacaraka kalo ga salah, mereka jam lesnya tuh siang, jadi kan aku ga bisa. So yang aku pikir bisa pas ama aku tuh:
- jam les vokal bisa di atas jam 5 sore
- gurunya cewek (ni karna aku pikir bakal lebih nyaman aja)
- kalo bisa seh dateng ke kos, privat gitu, biar praktis plus bisa fokus ke aku ;p
Nah yang aku temuin tu memenuhin semuanya. Sekarang jadi lagi mikir nih jadi beneran les vokal apa ga hihihihi... Papaku siy udah acc, dia bilang kalo mau les vokal gapapa, mumpung masih bisa belajar belajar apa aja yang aku pengen...
Thinking thinking deh...

Sweetest Memory
When I thought about what is the sweetest memory in my childhood, I instantly remember about my grandpa (in memoriam)... It's not that the others (my mom, dad and grandma) didn't love me well, it's just that my grandpa left such a sweet and unforgettable memory in this little girl's mind.
He is the one who picked me up from school when I was in first grades of primary school.
He is the one who read me English fairy tale books and translated them, lately I realized maybe it has triggered my interest in English :)
He is the one who accompanied me singing songs from my Sunday school (literally, he sang together with me), sometimes he mimicked me singing :).
Sometimes he accompany me when I have to stay late at night to study for tomorrow's exam.
I saw him treated my grandma so good... I have once wished I wanted to have a husband like him in the future...
Sometimes I wish he is still here on earth... I miss him...
At least he had become a right man figure to me
Guess I will have a husband with good traits like him :)

About Dreaming
Dreams: are they just a lust of our mind or are they really exist and need to be fulfilled?
I don't get it... (-_-")
Lately I'm dreaming of traveling abroad... This is a bit weird, considering that I have never wished that I would go abroad in the past, at all... I was just content with my city and my country, while some people I know really want to go abroad for vacation. But now I feel the same desire (-_-")
Sometimes I still don't understand, are certain dreams really need to be fulfilled (we must strive and try everything legal to pursue them) or they are just merely temporary lusts? Yes, lust... 'Cause they might be born in our mind out of a boredom, or just as an expression of our deepest wish to be "free"? Free from everyday routines and tasks... to refresh our mind and soul, to feel and experience the new environment, meet new people, learn new culture... even if it's just for a while...
I guess that maybe sometimes people need to add new vocabularies to the brain, fresh perspectives, to refresh our "human library"... to feed our thirst of new knowledge...
...at least that's the way I feel...
But unfortunately, not everyone can get their dreams to go traveling... They stumbled upon the costs, their family, their current job, all things that make their dreams harder to reach.
Then I think... if our life is not about us but about God (because we are His possession), I'm questioning are those kind of dreams worth to be pursued?
Certainly, if I think about the wholeness of life, like it is written in Ecclesiastes, everything is meaningless... it's true. 'Cause no matter how much we can get, no matter how great is our pride, no matter how many places we can visit and "conqueror", anything you name it... at the end, they will be all meaningless... because our true life is not meant for this temporary world, but later, in the eternity (Ecclesiastes 3:11)... That's why we can never be satisfied with the earthly things...
But another perspective, through all the process to achieve and experience our dreams, we can learn about His love, His almighty power, we can learn how to relate with God and also with other people the right way... Isn't that what God wants us to experience? Isn't that what God's goal for us to achieve? He wants us to be more alike with Him and also make every people His disciples. How we can fulfill God's goal in our life? By relating with God and others...
...and traveling is just one way among so many other ways...
Hmmm... I wish I can go travel to everywhere someday... not for the sake of traveling itself, but for a deeper purpose...
I don't get it... (-_-")

Free Sunday - Blog Update
Happy Sunday! For me it's lazy Sunday hahaha... Not really lazy siy, secara ntar juga mau pergi keluar buat belanja beli buah di Sinar terdekat ama juga sekalian ngelus-ngelus hamster 'n kelinci yang dijual di sana hehehe... They are so cute =p Ngegemesin hehehe...
This week I joined Interpals, recommended by my penpal from Thailand, just for searching another penpals =p Kayaknya enak aja email-email-an ama orang dari negara-negara laen, sekalian ngebiasain diri Inggris-an.
Btw, kayaknya aku dah ga produktif lagi jadi blogger yah hihihi... Secara postingan yang original udah tambah dikit 'n banyak postingan copy-paste. Nggak juga siy. Aku masih ngeblog, cuman terakhir kan aku sempet penasaran ama fitur baru di Wordpress.com, jadinya aku bikin blog baru 'n keterusan di sana hahaha...
Aku emang ga woro-woro alamat blog Wordpress yang baru, coz I think I need a little privacy, apa yah, sebenernya isinya juga ga rahasia-rahasia banget, cuman berasa lebih bebas aja nulisnya, mau cuman curhat ga penting atau apapun bisa aku tumpahin smua di sana. It's available on the internet, orang laen juga masih bisa baca, cuman aku setting ga termasuk di hasil pencarian Google. Jadi otomatis yang bisa nyampe sana ya cuman orang yang udah tau alamat blogku =p
Tapi kalo misalnya aku mau ngebagiin something yang bisa ngasih inspirasi atau copy paste artikel-artikel yang memberkati, bakal tetep aku posting ke sini kok.
Talking about blog's privacy, ada temenku yang dulu juga punya blog di Wordpress, orang-orang kantornya beberapa udah tau, sekarang di-private-in blognya jadi kalo mau baca kudu pake password. Ya otomatis yang bisa baca cuman yang udah dikasih password hehehe... Iya emang rada ga enak juga siy yah kalo orang kantor tau isi blog kita =p Orang-orang kantorku yang dulu banyak yang udah tau cuman aku cuek-cuek aja, apalagi sekarang kan dah ga sekantor ama mereka, lagian they are all my friends.
Ini karna aku dah lama sempet ga terbiasa nulis. Makanya aku butuh 1 blog yang bebas dari orang-orang laen, biar istilahnya bisa ngasih kesempatan yang seluas-luasnya ke aku buat ber-ekspresi (ceilah hahahaha...) Ga ber-ekspresi yang gimana juga siy, pokoknya pas nulis tu bisa bebas aja. Ga pake mikir "duh ntar kalo mereka / si ini / si itu baca blogku gimana yah?" so I choose to add "freedom in blogging" by making the new Wordpress blog hahaha...
Enak juga nih ngeblog panjang kayak gini... ditemani lagunya si Taylor Swift ama angin semilir... Kamar kosku kan di lantai 2, lumayan sejuk, kalo pagi masih bisa denger suara burung berkicau-kicau (tuh ada bunyinya hehehe)... Sedappp...
So, happy Sunday everyone!
...and happy blogging! ^.^
