Kenapa ya.. semestinya gua harus bersyukur for what I've got di hidup gua: ortu gua yg suportif, adek gua yang rese but I reckon life won't be the same without him, temen2 gua yang selalu bisa bikin gua ngelupain berbagai macam hal yg bikin gua worried (just by hanging out with them), studi gua yg udah lulus, kerjaan gua yg alhamdulillah bagus dan menjamin, the fact that gua udah bisa menghidupi diri sendiri tanpa bantuan finansial dari ortu, de el el.

Tapi, tetep aja kok kayaknya gua selalu ngerasa "kosong".. numb.. pokoknya ada yg kurang deh! Mungkin karena gua homesick, atau karena udah lama gak take a long vacation (I seriously need one!), atau jangan2 gua udah bosen sama Wellington? (Tapi gk juga si, saking udah kelamaan disini rasanya udah "kebal" dgn rasa bosen).

Au ah gelap, gua nulis ginian emang lagi di kondisi yg gak jelas kok. One thing for sure, 1 bulan & 3 minggu lagi gua insyallah nyampe di Bali.. n then ke Jakarta for 4 weeks deh! Yipppiiee! Gak sabaraaaan! Gua bakalan reunian ama anak2 3.1 (SMP) 'n possibly anak2 1.1 (SMA), ngumpul2 ma anak2 ex-Wellington, shopping tas ama Ayu, shopping baju2 ama nyokap, traktir2, ketawa-ketiwi ama sodara2 (duuh mudah2an Uni Meuthia bakal ke Jakarta, cos I haven't seen her in ages and she's like the best cousin I could ever have!), maen2 ke Dufan, etc etc.

Udah ah.. makin lama makin ngelantur ni gua..

I can NOT wait for my new toy!! It should arrive some time next week. But aaarrrgghhh next week is so far awaaaayy!! Oh well, at least I have something to look forward to.


Anyway, how fortunate was I to have the presentation/training cancelled? Apparently my manager was flat out with his work that it just wasn't possible for us to prepare a presentation (i.e. an internal training session for the tax team).

I've just found out today that my performance appraisal will be held next week on Tuesday, 11 AM. I totally have no idea what performance appraisals are like. One thing for sure, I'll be in a room with Richard (one of the directors) and Keith (my direct manager).

Aaaarrrgghhh ma new tooooyy! Ma new tooooyyy!! Come to mama dahliiiinnn!! In case you're curious what my new toy is, here are some clues:

• It's white
• It slides
• It plays music

Despite my past blogging addiction, it seems that since the past few weeks I don't even have the urge to blog anymore; nor do I blogwalk or bloghop as I used to, and I've figured out why. In the past, I blogged as a form of procrastination (e.g. from assignments and studying). But now that I've graduated from uni, I don't do assignments or write essays anymore; hence no reason to procrastinate by blogging anymore (although sometimes I do have tons of interesting and blog-worthy stories to tell!). And now that I work from 8:30am to 5:00pm and spend most of my days in front of the computer, when I get home I'd rather not be in front of the computer, so there's no time to blog (obviously I can't blog at work!). As for blogging in the weekend, naah I'd rather do something else :)

So now I'd like to officially declare: "Hiatus mode: ON!!"

Situasi 1:

Tante2 KBRI: "Des, pacar kamu mana?"
Me: "Gk ada Tante "
Tante2 KBRI: "Ah gk mungkin! Yg mana sih orangnya??"
Me: "Gk ada kok, beneran Tante"
Tante2 KBRI: "Ooo pasti diem2 yaaa.. "
duuh gk percayaan banget sih ni tante!

Situasi 2:

Tante2 KBRI: "Dessy pacarnya siapa sih?"
Me: "Ummm.. "
Tante2 KBRI: "Hayoo gk usah malu2 sama Tante"
Me: "Dia lagi di-transfer ke London.."
Tante2 laen yg tadinya nguping: "Oh ya??? Siapa tuh Des??"
Me: "Hehe.. ada deehh!"
case closed & diriku langsung kabur dari pandangan mereka.

Anehnya tante2 jaman sekarang. Dikasih tau yg sebenernya malah gk percaya. Dikibulin malah percaya banget. Hilarious.

Moral of this story: give 'em all they wanna hear and both parties will be delighted.

Mom's finally here!! Yaaayy!! Her presence is not the only thing that excites me, but she also got me 5 new pairs of shoes and several blazers/office attires!! Luv 'em all! Merci maman! ^_^ Oh yeah, my aunt also made some kastengel and kue nastar for me and my bro. She's an expert in making these, so I'm definitely delighted to find out that she made them for us!

Oh by the way, my graduation ceremony's in EXACTLY a week from today! CAN'T WAIT!! ^_^

It's been a long time since I last checked out the message board on my Soundlick profile. Much to my amazement, there's this internet radio DJ from Scrub Radio who was interested in broadcasting my songs on her show. Whoaa..!! I'm surprised a DJ would be that much interested in my songs and MY voice! Yeah, me and my crappy voice. Haha! I don't believe it!

Anyway, I only have 3 songs up on Soundclick at the moment:

• a cover version of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody
• a cover version of Bonnie Raitt's I Can't Make You Love Me, and
  
• a hilarious hip hop song that Sammy (aka eSZe) and I recorded together last year.

Some time last week I was in the mood of doing my cover version of Whitney Houston's Run To You.. but then my brother just luuuuuved to interrupt me by yelling "BERISIIIIIIIKKK!!!"

Then a few days later I was thinking of recording my version of Evanescence's Lithium by playing it on the piano and singing it simulatenously.. but then my "screeching" mode was on at that time so I couldn't sing properly.

Then.. a few hours ago I listened to my draft version of an original music that I composed out of a personal poem called Undying Love. I sang and played the guitar in this one, but the guitar wasn't in tune here so I was thinking of recording a polished version of it. But then again.. I was interrupted half-way through, and whenever I get interrupted the "diva mode" in me would shut itself down. *sigh*..

As usual I go to work by bus, but this morning something unusual happened. I was waiting in the bus shelter and there was a very old man on the far end of the bench. I was minding my own business when suddenly he started to have a conversation with me about my... PERFUME!

Him: What perfume are you using?
Me: (in my head) Huh? Me?
Him: It smells very nice, very unique and different
Me: Oh, it's Gucci Envy Me
Him: Goo-Chee A-B Me?
Me: Yes, Gucci Envy Me, it has a pink bottle
Him: Did you get it imported from somewhere else?
Me: Yeah, sort of, but they also sell it here at Farmers or even at the chemists
Him: Hmm.. can I get you to write it down for me? I'd like to buy one for my wife
Me: Yeah sure, so it's a Christmas present for her isn't it?
Him: Yes, I'm sure she'll love it
Me: I guarantee she will [although I do believe the scent suits younger women better]

A while later after writing down the perfume's name on a piece of paper, the bus came so we had to say goodbye. Well well well, what a nice event it was to start the day !!


Anyway, today I surveyed a male customer with the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen. His eyes were these very astonishing, crystal-clear (literally), marine-blue eyes!! I'm telling you, his eyes really do look like a pair of blue crystal balls! They were very shiny and twinkling, and it was like I could see the insides of his iris!! I don't think he was using contact lenses, cos they looked truly natural. I consider myself lucky to have ever seen a pair of such beautiful eyes like that! [Especially on a guy!]

These days I don't feel like blogging, but here's what happened yesterday:

1. Went to work. Gosh it was sooo boring, but I reckon it wasn't so bad after all. Besides, there was a bit of "playtime" with the boyz when no customers were in the store. Thank God they're all nice to me, especially Jon who's such a really friendly guy from the start. Fred's real fun too and he has a great sense of humour, but unfortunately this week's his last week of work at Sony.. which means that starting from next week there probably won't be as much laughter as the past few days of work.
2. At night, my bro and Nina and I went to KBRI for the new ambassador's welcoming party. He seems like a friendly person, and rumours have it that his wife is a film producer (my friends said that Ca-Bau-Kan and Arisan were two movies that she produced). Not only that, but she also produced some of Peter Pan's video clips, and it looks like she was about to bring the famous Indonesian band to Wellington for the New Year's Eve party, but she cancelled it due to the band's split. BOO HOO!!
3. My God, there's these three new KBRI girls and they can all sing!! Especially Lia the oldest one. She has a really nice voice when she sang last night.
4. I'm glad to say that I do NOT hate my ex. I used to think that since he's about to get married, I didn't want him in my life anymore --not even as friends-- and because of that a few months ago I deliberately "deleted" him from my life (eg. from my friendster, MSN, cellphone, etc). Moreover, I dunno know why but I always get the feeling that he hates me for ignoring him and not being friendly to him. But last night when I was sitting alone (my friends were minding their own business) he suddenly sat right behind me and we talked and talked then he went off to get me a drink (haha padahal gua gk minta Oh, he even drew a cute flower on the styrofoam cup and tried to scare me off by saying that it was someone else's cup). Then we watched Lia sing and he commented on how good her voice is but then he noticed from her voice that she probably doesn't have a musical background like I do, then he complimented me and told me that he still finds my voice way better than hers , and then we talked and talked and talked again within such proximity that made several people stare at us (sheesh!!). Anyway, last night I really felt okay with him u know. It's like I've finally come to realise that I don't feel "that way" about him anymore, and that I'm finally okay with the fact that he's getting married soon. Furthermore, it's good to know that the thoughts of him hating me were mere nonsense. But most of all, last night made me feel that I do NOT want him out of my life -- I still want him to be my friend. So yeah, although he used to be the biggest jerk I've ever met, I reckon he does make a good friend.
   
5. Oh, but there IS a person that I do hate. It's not that I "hate" him, but I dislike him in such a way that makes me wanna kick his ass every time he talks to me. Last night I thought he wasn't present, but then Koko (my ex) pointed him out and said "tuh dia!" and I thought aaarrghh! See, every time there's an event at KBRI, this weird man would always ask me things like "Des, Koko mana?" (>> emang gua pikirin) or "Des, Koko kenapa gk dateng?" (>> mana gua tau!!) or "kok kamu sama Koko datengnya gk barengan?" (>> emang kenapa??). Man, I'm so sick of him asking those questions, especially when I've told him a thousand times that we're not together anymore!! It's like he doesn't wanna believe it u know?? Which is why every time I see this person, I'd always try to get as far away from him as possible, cos he'd always try to get me to talk to him about my relationship with Koko. Anyhoo, last night he asked "kok gk sama Koko? Lagi marahan ya?" (>> aduuuh ni orang, gua getok deh lama2!!). Buat yg penasaran ni orang kyk apa, dia tuh udah bapak2, tapi aneh gitu deh, trus suka ikut campur urusan gua gitu. Damn, I miss the times when Yani and I used to make fun of him 'til our stomach hurt like hell! It's mean, I know, but it's amusing!

So here's what happened today:

1. Went to work again, but this time the day flew quite fast.. and I was faced with a mean customer. He bought a handycam, but maann! He was sooo rude! He pissed me off and I could've shouted "GO AWAY AND NEVER COME BACK!!!" to him.
   
2. Ever since I work at Sony, there's a guy that I really get along with.. and just before I left today, he asked me out. Aww maaann! I hope this won't be a date. I mean, he's a really nice person.. but I dunno, he's not my type and I don't see him in "that" way.. and besides, he's not Muslim.. but I reckon we can still go out as friends .
3. I felt tired after work, yet I walked to Manners to visit The Rock Shop and had a browse on their piano sheetmusic collection. I didn't buy any of them, so I wanted to go home and went to the bus stop at James Smith corner. The Island Bay bus was there! But I didn't have cash with me so I walked to the ATM at Courtenay Place. I was about to walk to the furthest bus stop near Embassy Theatre afterwards, but then I realised that the bus stop in front of Nandos was a lot closer. So I went back and accidentally saw Fahmi outside Starbucks -- he was holding a frappuccino. He was looking for a seat, so I thought kagetin aaah.. and yup, I scared him from behind, haha!! Then I asked him what was he doing there, and he said he was meeting Koko so I thought oooooo-kaaayy.. is this bad timing or what? then Koko suddenly came up behind me with a cup of coffee and the three of us sat down. As much as I was surprised to see him, he probably least expected me to be there. At first I felt like I shouldn't have been there, but then they urged me to get a drink so I bought some bubble tea. After a while, Koko asked me to join them for a movie and although I didn't know what the movie was about, I said yes. Besides, it would be much more fun than staying at home. We turned out to watch Flags of Our Fathers, which is a war movie based on a true story. I don't normally like war movies, but thank God this one's got Ryan Philippe and Paul Walker in it (they're two of my favourite actors). Anyway, if I could sum up the movie in one sentence, it would be: cool at first, but boring after a while. It has a depressing ending, and strangely none of the audience made a move from their seat when the movie was over!! The three of us were like oookaaayy.. kok gak ada yg keluar?? Then I realised that most of them were oldies (kakek2 and nenek2).. hmm perhaps they're really paying tribute to the dead men in the movie.. and maybe the movie really made them feel so depressed. After hesitating for a while, we finally made a quite impolite move, which was walking out of the cinema room when everyone else wasn't moving. Afterwards, Koko and Fahmi drove me home. Man, we should've seen Borat instead! I wonder who insisted on watching Flags of Our Fathers..
4. I got a MySpace message from Deborah, my Ivory Coastern best friend whom I've known since 7th grade in Jordan who's now in the States. She's facing her finals right now, and she promised me that she'll call me once her exams are over. Man, I CANNOT wait!!

1. I started working part time at Sony to undertake surveys of clients. It was cool! The staff were friendly, and I was paired up with a French girl called Lydie. She's awesome, and it was nice having someone to converse in French with . Oh yeah, one time there were these two ladies who literally spent a few hours inside the store talking with one of our sales consultants and looking at Sony TVs, compact digicams, SLR digicams, MP3 players, etc. Later after they left, I found out that these ladies had won a $100000 prize and that they were spending the money on Sony products!! I wouldn't even mention the $$$ figure if I were them!
2. I finally bought a new digital camera! Yaay!! After doing a bit of research on digicams that have the technical features that I wanted and suited my budget, I ultimately decided on the cute little pink Fuji Finepix Z3. I even visited several photography and electronic stores to find the cheapest one available! I haven't tried taking pics with my new digicam yet, cos it has to be charged overnight before doing so.
   
3. I checked my student records again to see whether my FREN123 result is out already. To my disappointment: Nope, it ain't out yet.
4. A few minutes ago I went for a pee, and I noticed that my pee smelt like cat urine. Weird.

• So it's true.. my beloved digital camera broke down. A few days ago I brought it to a Fujifilm store and they said it's damaged on the inside. There's no way they could manually fix it themselves. They said that the camera has to be sent to the Fuji manufacturer in Auckland, and with that kind of internal damage it would cost around NZ$300-NZ$400, and I instantly thought oh goodie goodie goodie.. what will I tell daddy?? (cos he was the one who bought the cam and he expected me to take good care of it). Oh well, the camera's pretty old anyway (my dad bought it in 2003), and with that much cost of repairing it I might as well purchase a new one (with my own money of course -- since the damage was partly my fault).
• Mom's gonna come here for my graduation ceremony this December. Yay!! Aah, I miss eating lotsa delicious food everyday, tee hee hee. But the excitement's here already!! I can't wait to see my mommy, elle me manque tellement!
  

• I'm gonna start working part-time in Sony on Monday. Luckily the pay's pretty decent too!

• Since last Monday, I've already known that some of my final grades have come up on my online student records, yet it was only last afternoon that I had the courage to access my records. Two of my marks were there (SPAN112 and COML303), and considering the circumstances that I'd been through (eg. lecture timetable clashes) I'm pretty satisfied with them although they weren't straight A's. I won't tell you what I got -- at least for now. I'll do so when I have obtained all four grades, so in the mean time.. wish me luck!

Finalement, I got my brand new contact lenses. This is the very first time I've every tried wearing them, and oh God I was struggling on trying to put them in my eyes! But then it was even harder when I tried to take them off that I almost gave up. Whew!

Yesterday I finished reading Love on the Dotted Line by David E Talbert. I don't normally like chick lits as the plot usually bores me, but I have to admit that I enjoyed reading this one. I'd give it 4 stars out of 5. It's about a broken-hearted woman who got sick of men who luv to play games on women. Anyway, this woman's a lawyer, and she became frustrated up to the point where she decided to create a "pre-prenuptial" contract that would secure her relationships with men. So she started dating a new man, and a few weeks later when things got "hot", she made him sign the contract under duress. A few months passed, and she found out that he cheated on her, so she took him to court, and that's where the excitement begins. If you want a more detailed review about this book just google it! I can't be bothered to type a lot right now.

Anyway, I'm sick of manja girls who are sooo dependent on others! It's like they'd rather not go out unless someone picks them up. Sheesh! Unlike them, I'd catch the bus, take the train, and walk through rain, thunder, and storm if I really have to!

Dah ah, lagi males blogging nih sebenernya.

Labels: Books, Daily Ramblings

In no particular order:

1. Design and implement a new blog layout
2. Look for a full-time job (I've been trying since months ago.. but no job offers until now)
   
3. Clean up my bedroom and the livingroom, they're a complete mess
4. Discipline myself and must make an attempt to master Fantaisie Impromptu and Ballade no.1 in G# Minor on the piano
5. Have fun! It'll be summer in no time!
6. Get some info from NZICA
7. If only I had a full license, I'd go on a road trip with friends
   
8. Annoy my brother even more
9. err.. what else??
10. Oh yeaahh!! GRADUATE from my BCA and GradDipProfAcc! (Note: I'd already completed my BCA with 2 majors last February)

Anyway, I checked my VUW student email this morning and I was soooo relieved that my Auditing lecturer had changed my workshop participation mark from 0% to 5% (you could either get 0% or 5% for this, and for a hard subject like Auditing, a 5% can make a huge difference between a pass and a fail!) Thank God he said there were some admin mistakes and that my mark should've been 5% in the first place anyway. I hope he changed Kenny's too, cos Kenny told me that he wouldn't change his mark.

I also checked MySpace a few minutes ago and Adam has sent me a pic of me and the girls in 7th grade. How embarrassing. I told him to send it to my email instead!

Dear blog,

I hereby declare my vow to never have my hair cut by Asian hairdressers, ever again.

Signed,
The Lioness


Yesterday I went to the Korean salon to get my hair cut into the style in the pic above. I was certain that they could cut my hair like that, despite the fringe that I already have.
Nonetheless...

Damn you Asian hairdressers!! You're all the same. Regardless of whether I go to Adrian's or the Korean salon, you thin down my hair --either with clippers or razors-- until I look like a lost Chinese girl. You cut my thick and coarse hair the same way that you'd cut those typical-poker-straight-Chinese-and-Japanese-girls' hair.

I find, however, that my last haircut at Adrian's was a gazillion times better than the haircut that I had yesterday afternoon at the Korean salon. Despite having my hair thinned too much until I entered the oh-lookie-Dessy's-become-a-victim-of-Adrian's-again state, at least my hair at Adrian's was cut into a particular style, and that it actually looked nice when I straightened my hair. Yesterday's haircut at the Korean salon, however, was plain odd and weird and ugly! My hair has no style or shape at all now.

When I got home, I analysed my hair in front of the mirror: It looked alright from the front. From the sides, I thought "what the hell did she do to my hair???" cos the sides were quite feathery and hideous; it didn't resemble the above pic at all! From the back, I thought "OMG!! Why in the world would she layer my hair like that??" I almost cried and became very moody seeing my hair like this, cos it still looked odd and shapeless even after I straightened it last night!! Oh well, at least I can still tie my hair.. *sobs*

Aaarrgh! GO n ROT in HELL you Asian hairdressers!! You must educate yourselves more, GODDAMMIT!!

P.S: sorry for being rude in this posting, but I'm not fasting today so it doesn't matter. Moreover, this is MY blog so I have the right to write mean things here here :)

I hate myself! I hate myself! I truly hate myself!! How could I be so stupid?? Aaarrgghh!! I've blown my chances away!! Aaarrgh! I hate Spanish! (lho kok jadi Spanish??) Well, speaking of Spanish (SPAN112), I screwed up in my oral exam today. The exam (it's more of a test actually) consisted of two parts: reading and conversation. I excelled in the reading bits, but then when the lecturers asked me questions, I kinda froze cos the questions that they asked me were completely different to what I'd expected! I couldn't even speak fluently at all; it's like it was so hard to get the correct Spanish words out of my mouth! Moreover, I was supposed to have the exam at 3pm, but then at 2:50pm they already called my name! I hadn't got the chance to get myself together when they did, cos I just came out of the toilet beforehand! I was planning to do a bit of revision for 10 minutes before going to the oral exam room, but thanks to the early call I didn't even have the chance to do so!

Anyway, on Friday I have another oral exam, but this time it's for French (FREN123). Even though the French and Spanish courses that I'm doing are both at an elementary level (the one that you need to do before going to the 200-level courses), FREN123 is like 10 times harder than SPAN112!! In spite of that, I still love French a million times better than Spanish, he he

Oh by the way, on my way back home I saw Rosita (last year's NZ Idol winner) on the same bus as me!! At first when I saw her I thought "I think I've seen her before.. but who is she??" then I realised that it's Rosita!! I wonder what she's doing these days. NZ Idol's not a huge phenomenon at all here, unlike in Indonesia and America. There's no more news about Ben Lummis (NZ Idol's first season winner) after he released his 2nd single. Worse than that, I've never even seen or heard Rosita's single on TV and on the radio right after she won! So I reckon that you can't really become a recording artist if you just win NZ Idol. Now I'm thinking that NZ Idol's merely a sham. To put it more positively: a one-off popularity contest.

• My Spanish final test today turned out to be harder than I expected! I hope I did well.
• I finally bought the Supre skirt that I wanted, regardless of the fact that I didn't succeed in getting the job offer from IRD :p
• I finally got the sheetmusic of Christina Aguilera's latest single titled "Hurt" from Pianofiles. Unsurprisingly, the piano bits are easy to play. Surprisingly though, this song suits my vocal range! Yay!! A Christina song that I can finally sing! I might record myself singing it one day (narcissism rules!)
  
• When I left my house this morning, I saw a DEAD bird in front of my doorsteps. I was so disgusted by it! Who the hell had the guts to do that?! It must be one of my neighbours, but which one?? When I returned home, it was still there! My brother was actually stupid enough to not see that there was a dead bird there. I just hope he hadn't stepped on it. Anyway, I didn't know what to do about it cos I didn't wanna touch it! Ew! A few seconds later, I guiltily swept the poor dead birdie away with an old broom. If anybody ever repeats this kinda thing, I'll place the dead creature in one of my neighbour's mailbox. How's that?
• Last but not least, il en a decouvri.. finalement. Je suis vraiment desolee, mais je n'ai aucun choix.

Normally I don't remember my dreams as soon as I wake up, but last night's dream was so weird and hilarious that I can still remember it until now. I dreamt that we were all fish creatures who live under the sea, except for the fact that we had human head, as well as human arms and legs. Oh yeah, I remember we were walking on the sea bed instead of swimming like a real fish, yet we called ourselves a fish. Anyway, the weirdest part was that I dreamt about Edwin (the "guitarist" Edwin, not the KBRI one) and Rania (Hana's sister). I dreamt that Edwin had a huuuge crush on Rania, lol. He was chasing after her the whole time until she accepted him to be her boyfriend. Rania, however, didn't love Edwin as much as he did, and eventually she cheated on him with another guy whom she had a crush on for ages (but I didn't recognise who that guy was). Edwin was devastated when he heard about the rumour. He and the other guy almost found out about Rania's affair with one another, but luckily they didn't cos I worked hard in trying to hide her secret affairs and preventing the guys from bumping into one another. The dream didn't reach to a dramatic ending, cos suddenly my brother woke me up for "sahur". Oh yea, thanks to that dream, I couldn't even wake up although my bro said that my noisy alarm had been on for like an hour and a half before he finally decided to wake me up (uuh kebo banget ya gua! alarm apapun udah gk mempan deh pokoknya!)

Now I'm thinking why did I ever dream about those two? I'm not even that close with them. I don't think Edwin or Rania ever reads my blog, so Mich and Nar please don't tell them about this blog entry, lol

Anyway, I've just heard in the news that 16-year-old Oscar nominated Keisha Castle Hughes is pregnant! My God, she has a bright career in front of her and she's throwing it away by having her first child when she's only 16?! (Btw 16 is the legal age in NZ in which you can have consensual sex). Maaan, what was she thinking??

I have just come home from breaking the fast with Yessy, Harridz, Ardya, and Nara at Miyabi. As usual, I ordered my favourite Teriyaki Chicken Set, and right now I'm sooo stuffed! I'm feeling quite sleepy too, but noooo I CANNOT sleep! I have a Commercial Law assignment due on Wednesday. I also have a French essay writing test AND a Spanish listening test on the same day *sigh*.. I'm probably not gonna sleep again tonight (aaargh! It's only gonna worsen my skin condition, but I have no choice). I'll have to finish my assignment before "sahur" tomorrow, so that afterwards I'll be able to focus on studying for my tests.

• By the way, before going to class today, I bought a new pair of slouch boots as they were on sale. They're not designer brand or anything, but I love 'em cos they're really cheap and comfy!

• Hmm. I still haven't received any news from IRD. See? They've rejected me.
  

Labels: Daily Ramblings

I suck at interviews. I feel so pessimistic now. I'm not expecting any good news from IRD, but I still pray for God to give me a miracle..


At night Dianny, Nara, Ardya, and I went to KBRI to break the fast together. Unlike in the previous years, this time there were pretty much a lot of people there (but of course a lot of them left after dinner. What losers, maunya makan doang). De toute maniere, j'suis etonnee car mon ex etait la. Il a l'air mieux que jamais, mais n'importe quoi. Il ne m'interesse plus, et je ne le veux plus dans ma vie meme comme des amis, car il n'apporte que des mauvaises memoires. Toutefois, je ne le deteste pas. Bagaimanapun juga, jauh mendingan yang di England lah, hehehe..

BTW kemaren gua mo apply buat graduate position as an auditor in Deloitte London, tapi eeh ternyata udah tutup application-nya! Dulu gua niaaat banget kepengen apply buat itu, tapi anehnya kemaren pas tau kalo pendaftarannya udah tutup, gua cuma ngerasa gondok doang, bukannya kecewa ato apa gitu. Mungkin karena gua nyadar kalo motivasi utama gua untuk ke London adalah supaya gua bisa ketemu Adam instead of really wanting the opportunity to work there. Anyway, Adam itu temen kecil gua dari Jordan yang sekarang udah jadi co keren 'n baek banget lagi! Moreover, he's a very devoted Muslim, what more could I ask for? He lives 2 hours from London, tapi dia bilang dia bakalan visit gua seandainya gua bener2 pindah ke London. Aih aih sweet bangeeet!!
