the adventures of padre & madre!

ok, starting now, these will be in no particular historical order, as i once again remind you : i am extremely forgetful, so these will of COURSE be under the 'finally remembered' label :E.
here goes!

#1. my mom was the one who 'officially' proposed to my dad. ngaco banget lagi ngajaknya.hahaha

#2. they got married at a (i forgot, will fill in when remembered) wearing t-shirts and jeans and borrowed wedding rings that were actually too small for them.

#3. fun fact: as a joke (or while accompanying her friend) she went to a tarot card reader, and the lady said, " you will find you soulmate across the continent, and he will have red hair"
across the continent = new york
red hair = 'red' hair. rambut babeh merah hasil kerja lapangan seumur hidup.hahaha
so yes, it was me dad :D.

on style :
#4. bun2 was embarassingly a hardcore celana brai-brai and nurellah wearer in her era.
aplikasi gaul paling salah sedunia.

#5.....while ayah created his own version of the brai-brai pants : he brought his old brown pants to the family's tailor, and requested from the poor old man to install yellow suede fabric in a triangle shape on the 'brai-brai''s sides.

the action caused the poor old man to get ambushed by his 3 very bawel sisters for embarassing them with my father's pants.
the pants only lasted 3 days before he ripped off the yellow fabric.

more to come later!
next stop : college life, lifestyle, social life, struggles, idiocy

randomism

WOW, now THAT'S babbling (that last post).hahaha
see how bad my memory is? that and combined with my drive to note everything down.gah.

so what i was aiming to write about is :
1. how fun me and litya's topic was : masa muda ayah bunda masing2 :D!
o yeah, speaking of that, i finally remembered that i've always wanted to sum up all of my parents interesting life stories and how much i love every each and one of them, no matter how much they keep repeating it (aw shucks, now i'm getting all misty eyed :') ). bet everyone has their share of fun stories too :). ayo kumpulkan dan dokumentasikan!

2. how ridiculous the whole eco-movement by all those high and mighty people, who only think of it as a trend. if they REALLY wanna help and all, they should cut down their spending habits on trivial stuff.
like that weekly trip to the salon.
ladies, COME ON. every wash can be used for at least 2-3 quick showers.not to mention those with long hair. and they wash twice. imagine that.
o yeah, other helpful eco movements that hasn't been too widely published(? ya itulah) :
- wear less make up.
make up = artificial stuff+manufacturing process+chemicals from the make up remover+cotton to apply make up remover+final face washing+more water and face soap wasted.
- crap i forgot AGAIN. ok next time then.

current status

1. these days my knack of compulsive lying has increased.
i can't help it, even when i haven't opened my mouth, or met the person i'm about to face, first thing that comes into my mind is :

'what am i supposed to tell them this time??? ok, how about (insert lie here) ?'

then i waste about a precious 15-20 mins to debate my own mind, trying to not end up lying.
if i do end up lying, i'd spend another wasted time trying to apologise and explain my answer all over again (the real answer this time).
then feel guilty.
then my head hurts.again.

2. though my actual condition is :beyond 'depressed', that i don't even know what the hell does that word MEAN - slash - borderline panic about my KP condition (oh look,i wrote condition twice), every time my friend states that she's "udah pasrah"/"im desperate"/(insert negative condition here), for some reason i always answer something i didnt actually feel, and it's usually somethign positive, when it's actually so negative, i have really really REALLY bad urges to beat something/someone with a blunt object.
thing is, i don't even know WHY i'm doing this.
what, to get attention?
to be able to pity my own self?
to help people be positive?
to make people pity me?
to take my mind off my own 'problems' (which i think are minor, but mr.d told me it ain't.damn him)?

how can i stop this, when i dont even know the root of the reasons i'm doing all this lying bullshit?

oh dear lord

after looking at a friend's picture (the uncropped one.the full body one.no, it is not a pervy picture, good god people.), i have realized how SHALLOW i've become, in terms of thinking and judging.
wow, who knew that guilty pleasures can actually teach you to reflect on ourselves?
this is gonna sound weird, but : thanks bitch.

i MUST change this dammit!

tembok retak dan hantu air

why can't people stop being so self-centered and egoistic and start thinking about others and all things concerning ALL of us? i mean, it does benefit your own selves if that's what you're so worried about.
goddamn you all.

inglourious basterds

gila.ya.ini.film. i love it.LOVE it.LOVE it.

suka SEMUA, especially si...si...AH SUKA SEMUA!HAHAHHAHAHA, but if i must pick favorites, then it has to be:
Shoshanna--one of the coolest chicks i've seen in a long time, and..
Hans Landa--being the ultimate basterd.(gila ini orang pantes menderita ampe mati)

ngakak ngakak tolol nonstop ampe bego gara2 tarantino-isme yang super kental..hahaha LOVE.IT.

yah.kan.

i've realized that i'm not a really confident person, and even if i was, the process will be veeeery very slow, but i've accepted it thoroughly as a part of my 'process' and whatshit. buuuut, these days that single topic tends to bug me.

for instance, just a while ago when i was out after watching the amazingly super Inglourious Basterds (i'll get to that next :D) with my friends, one of them decided to go to a bag store,and finally bought a bag (tas 'cewe' beneran.haha).
actually i've been interested in getting one myself for sometime, but masih blom bernyali buat make (haha), jadi selama ini menunda2 terus.nah, on the other hand, even though we tend to get that same mentality, she tends to usually get over it first, then after a long long long while, I would finally get my own share of mentality boost.
and i've excepted that, heck, sometimes i even joke about it casually.

but turns out there are just some things that i cant get off my mind for quite sometime..stupidly useless and a waste of brain space stuff, which makes it even worst:
- i love wearing bracelets, and for a while i've been interested in all the tumpuk2 style, especially those ethnic bangles that are all woodsy, or ones that have nice-colored stones.
and suddenly one of my friend actually made that part of her style, and because i haven't done it and my stupid gengsi problem, i refuse to have the same style as her even though i really really want to.

- ...the same goes for those damn stockings. have loved it for some time, but never had the guts to wear 'em, n got 'beaten' (well not really) by my friend AND the whole damn fashion world. and because of that, my gengsi-ness has refused to wear them (tho i'm already starting with leggings.hahaha)

- my other friend made this really cool beanbag out of used plastic bags.
thing is, for a long time i've been on this 'i-want-to-make-things-out-of-wastes' streak for a long time and combined with no ideas at all for quite some time, i actually got pissed at it. heck, i even when and told her to my face that i was actually kinda jealous (haha ack xp) that she could think of a way to develop waste. and it just (fuckfuckfuck) occurred to me that ironically, i was interested in this topic way before her AND i actually apply this sort of lifestyle more then she does (and we have both been on this topic before,and agreed on it).i guess that's why i was so pissed.
until now i've been trying to get rid of this damn envious feeling, and THANK GOD it's actually working :)

- my other friend has already got a tattoo.
we both have wanted it for a long time--separately-- and when we found out that we have the same yearning, we decided to get one,entah kapan( tapi untungnya ga janjian sih).
but because of my allergies, and my forgetful-ness, i keep forgetting to get an allergy test. padahal udah bisa punya dari kapan tau :/
* i fully blame myself for my incompetence, so im sorry if it sounded accusing, and if it does, that means i didn't express myself clearly :p

SEE????? all pointless simple trivial things! i cant believe THOSE kinds of shits are the ones that bothers me.
seriously, it's really embarrasing and i am embarrassed for myself.


i really really really hate my guts.

viva la leftovers!

i just LOVE leftover-scrap-out-just-about-anything-you-find-and-work-with-it days!

Leftover Days :

" food that you end up having when you don't have anything to eat/don't know what to eat, and then 'answers' just pops in front
of your face when you open the fridge and find those
blessed 1-3 days leftover foods to reheat:D"

-diandra canti hadiawanHAHAHA

aaaaanyhow, this time i found my *cough1weekoldcough* fried rice bumbu.good thing i put it in the freezer,and so far no stomach 'complications'. SO FAR.
and then i saw the *cough1weekoldagaincough* pasta we made last week..and i re-heated it and shared with nenek and devi. so far no complaints yet..YEEEEETT.

but overall at LEAST it looked ok :

leftover nasi goreng merah tersohor si mba minah with srambled eggs (yang ngutang dulu ma entah siapa :p),
creamy seafood and pea fettuchini, and cinnamon coffee

looooovee X3~~

to do today

okay, so later today i'm going to finally watch Inglorious Bastards, but while waiting i'm gonna list the stuff i plan to write about because i KEEP FORGETTING TO UPLOAD THE PICTURES DAMMIT. padahal udah mau coba komitmen buat 'therapy' melakukan rutinitas yang ga ditunda2 biar ga lupa2 ( i am really really REALLY forgetful).
jadi :
1. matchy-matchy yg stok se-oktober
2. movie reviews (objectively and subjectively over the whole hollywood bonanza..no ideas--dr buku semua--VAMPIRES(anjing,RUSAK)--sex super sells,etc)
3. FOOD
4. sampah dan mentalitas anak itb
5. random interesting stuffs

thats it for now-lah :/

5 ultimate things i MUST have, if not i shall perish

This realization was triggered by the #1 item on the list, which is :

#1. Teh Tarik

yes, i DO love my teh tarik.
ooh, and look! me mum got me a new kind of brand and it's GOOD. do give it a try :D




#2. beloved Ipod Mini.
yes.
ipod MINI.
yang eranya udah kelewat jebot.
but i love it so much and apparently it loves me too, hence, it's life force
that still exists till this day: 4 years already,and that's NOT counting the time it was in my friends' mum's and ex's hand.
these days i am a slave to it fo shizzo.haha :)


#3. Notepad of any form and an assortment of Writing Tools
yes, i am a list-aholic (if such a thing exists). just ask my friends who are sick of it.hahaha


#4. my Lifesaver Pouch
balsem and panadol merah for my daily headache, a roll of thread,
eyeliner, bobby pins, and safety pins.


#5. my blood red and ultramarine blue nail polish and my handmade thread bracelets.
just realized it when my friend mentioned one day :
"eh lo ga pake kutex? tumben.aneh soalnya ngeliat lo tanpa kutex.."
and since then it has become a sort of trademark i have :p.
these days i always find it oddly refreshing when i see those colors on me~


SWEET~

one more thing

i wish to have my old enthusiasm to DRAW again.
i miss the scratching of a wooden pencil on soft textured paper....

turns out that i

love writing.
typing,handwriting,whichever.
i hope to never stop no matter what the form is.
i hope it so much, that without realizing it, a couple of days ago (sunday?) i ended up blurting that i want to be a journalist. and at the time i said it, i really really really felt that i meant it.
well at least to be something that has the 'palette' to rant on, but in an objective manner.
so i can stop bugging other people with my blunt and constant rants about anything i think is worth ranting about.hahaha
to tell you the truth, i'm actually kind of sick of it myself.
i just need some media pelampiasan to barf all my thoughts on.

sadly these days, no matter how many types of thoughts run thru my head, i just cant seem to catch up on it all to actually put it down on paper.
cant believe im a slave of my own mind. how pathetic.
