...oy.

-- woke up panicking about mishap on fabric measurements

-- visit to tailor was postponed to tomorrow (better be)

-- goddamn JNE had the nerve to charge me for re-shipping. 

   i did admit that i didn't insert the destined home number (which, i also did explain that

   the last time i sent it there, the receiver got it no problem, on time. but whatever, was

   still at fault.) but they didn't call me the minute they found out that they couldn't find

   the house--then  what's the use if we enclose our own phone number as the sender if it

   isn't for any form of confirmation??? tolol.-- and the damn package was sent a month

   ago. OY. 

   But as a 'diplomatic' sign of good faith, i offered to pay half-price for the re-shipment.

   of course, i still reminded them that they still share the other 1/2 of fault. enak aja.

   (seriously fuckin' pissed.obviously.pff-)

-- re-organized junk compartments in room. finally made the final arrangements.

-- got ready to leave to elementary school reunion, until...

-- ...yeah yeah, just like every other Jakarta people moving about today, i (and the rest

   of them) had to cancel said plan because of the flood everywhere. but that wasn't

   before i tried to reach our meeting point, PIM, first...

• got 1st angkot w/o trouble. oh, except that the jackass tried to rip off the usual fee. bitch, seriously?
• 2nd also. met high school religion teacher who most of us hate but was actually quite civil there. her child, though, i wanted to strangle. going all ''kakak! kakak! [insert some shitty sule joke]! HAHAHAHA!!" cutting her mom's convo with me all through al-izar - rs fatmawati.
• stopped for Express taxi at fatmawati who refused me. as it was starting to pour hellish rain. why turn on your vacancy light then you TWAT???
• took angkot to lebak bulus terminal instead (contemplating busway to PIM or taxi home? home won.). ngetem nyaris 30 menit, ibu2 sebelah udh protes2 si mas blaga budeg. seriously considered jabbing my umbrella into his ear.
• bought gorengan otw down from terminal to get taxi
• ...still no taxi. bought ginger milk. walked further down.
• ...still no taxi. bought jamu kunyit asem. walked further down.
• ...still no taxi. walked further down to point square
• TAXI!!! (so a total of nearly 45 mins)

-- home sweet home. got hot bowl of soup from mba minah and made the coffee i just

    bought at the warung~
-- watched leverage 5 ep 3 & 4
-- dinner
-- drew a little
-- called ayah
-- helped out my friend's letter of approval translation
-- yeah ok i really need some sleep now. must make 'rounds tomorrow *blargh*

over the left shoulder.

it was raining.
not pouring, drizzling. with evened out grey clouds.
favorite black light baggy t-shirt with its yellow sketchy palm tree.
white high school softball pants.
left knee stained with grass and dirt, a little ripped.
a practice session.
cold bat heavy over left shoulder.
reversed position, hitting inward the diamond.
first hit.
a satisfying thwack noise.
some of the guys on my left turned their heads.
and then the coach said, "move further back guys, we have a power hitter!"
and they all moved back simultaneously.

one of the best moments in my life. 

trip and plunge

being an observer is awesome.
but ending up as a bystander, with only binoculars as your best friend, sucks balls.

do remember that too much of a good thing is never good.
it's a definite guarantee for overload head problems.
and you hate pointless overload head problems. yes you do.

and please please try not to expect anything if you can't handle the letdown when, unfortunately, you end up unlucky and it fucks you in the face. 
remember, you hate pointless overload head problems. yes you do.

-- from a walk through recent non-memory lane.
hey look, progress! at least most of the times you can already feel genuine happiness while watching through your binoculars.

supermarkets are always pretty

The Avengers

-again, NOT a public movie review, so sorry if anyone ends up here by accident-
just realized that Iron Man was put up front when Captain America is the leader. guess Iron Man's more popular the the Cap'n. meh, marketing strategy.

moving on.
everyone got awesome moments--the one when you can't decide which character is the coolest because the next character's scene keeps on outshining the first and so on--but a bit weird that Thor was out-shined, being a god and all.

the fight scenes were fight scenes.
meaning thank god they didn't feel that they had to slow-mo every single fight scene.
so the blow-by-blow impact was sweet.

I didn't think Thor had some humor
Captain America still delivered
Iron Man too
Hulk.was beyond awesome.
Hawkeye too.i want his arrow pack and i'm even an arrow person.
Black Widow wasn't just a piece of ass.i want her blades and the Chitauri blade-slash-laser staff she used at the final battle.
Maria Hill was too nice.
And Mr. Stan Lee at the end cracked the heck out of me (*scoffs* "There's no such thing as Super Heroes!").

All in all there were veeeerry little things to protest about; i was all sparkles and squeals, smacking and punching my friend (and vice versa) all the while when the best parts were up; but wished i got a more active crowd--instead of the mba2 next to me whose legs kept vibrating the seats and didn't stop even when i kicked her chair several times, also the annoying girls next to my friend who did the classic nonstop''ohmygod whatsgoingtohappentoironman??? *annoyingsqueal/laughs*" noisy comments and BBing-- so i could 'respond' my ass off while watching (got out a "HULK SMASH!!!!!" tho :}).

I am so watching for the second time.and considering a third time if i snap and have enough budget to spare.hoho

of course, looking for the poster leads to an all-things-related browsing frenzy, so, yeah my eyes are tired now.can't resist premiere night.

the empty lot next door

there are two ways for me to get out from my compound:
1. through the ally next to the mosque, 3 houses down, short walk along Jl. Venus, and wait for the angkot at the main street.
2. through the empty lot right next 'door' to my house to get to the main road that seems, i have no idea how, closer then the first route, naturally becoming my favorite route.

now for the past 2 months of so, a wall was built so i couldn't pass anymore. but because my neighbor told me that the wall's temporary, i decided to take a peak today.
and voila! someone placed a makeshift ladder in front of the wall
now, i wasn't the brave little tomboy kid who used to climb trees as a kid--i did barbies like the little generic byul i was.shut up.--but i was feeling rather lazy to go through the first route (lots of people, wasn't in the mood) so i climbed over, expecting to have to jump a little across the other side, but hey, found another little gem instead
i've never been more happy to see my peoples definite feel of self-righteousness put to play the land belongs to someone else--obviously--but hasn't been developed since i moved here for more then a year ago, thus, resulting in trespassing from their side...and mine. but i'll stop when it's officially in development kok :p!

i mean come on, this road has the best feel to boost up my hey-it's-morning-lighten-up enthusiasm.i call it therapy.ahaha

the extra pack

met up with tendy today at gandaria city after a (brief) trip to Inacraft. 

briefcases, lamps, and catching up left me exhausted but relieved (thanks again, man). 

took tendy to the taxi stop then went off to meet up with my mom at ace hardware while trying to find something to eat, with little to no options left (it was around 9pm, closing time).

tried my luck at lotte mart, went to the sushi booth to find....a "buy 1 get 1" sign. 

grabbed two packs, gave it to the guy, and then he said "here, since it's closing time i'll give you one more" and even offered to give me another two more if i buy one more pack. 

said ''no, thanks'', still grinning my ass off (even shrugged off the fact that it was supermarket quality sushi--thick ass slabs of rice--and that it was mostly there the whole day). 

thank you super market guy for giving me an extra slab of happiness after all that :j

found this in my inbox

thanks man, made (the rest of) my day :D

Happy Birthday Bunda!

Mother's Cook BBQ Burger & The Works.

my midnight comfort food has taken on a more dangerous level.

ahahah again, looks nasty but tastes awesome especially given the current circumstances.
sorry it ended up you giving me a treat instead, but i'll make it up to you Bun:D

bali beach sun

coincidence or not, today fit so well with the Nyepi celebration preparation (for tomorrow) i saw at the Pura on the way to work. a really good way to start the day, and thank goodness the whole day went arguably well on my terms :]

kosan food template

unintentional lunch & dinner combo

the kebaya matter & nostalgia

had to go to mayestik to make my kebaya fitting for my graduation ceremony and a friends' wedding, and turns out my route passes by my old elementary school sat Barito so me and Mba Minah decided to stop by and get our beloved es doger. good to know it still tasted the same and the owners are still the elderly couple from when i was still going to school there :)!

the best part of the es doger is that it's not too sweet and their special bread is homemade, not the usual slices of bread loaf people usually use. and they always give me extra!hohoho

then we got to mayestik to find out that the new building has progressed this much:

whoaa..hope it turns out good and that the prices won't end up skyrocketing because they're moving indoor.hahaha

win some, lose some.

my kosan is always full of surprises every time i come back from Jakarta. (yesterday)

pro: more privacy.
contra: no more healthy bright morning sun.
(the right picture is the condition at 8 am. i have to turn on the light now since morning.meh)
pro: no more boiling water noisily for coffee at 2am *terharu*.
contra: NONE.

like i said, you win some you loose some :j.
