Valentine's Day

I know how people gets lovey dovey when this day come. This day is not necessary for couple only. You may celebrate with friends, family, or, in my case, my personal trainer.

I decided to spend my Valentine, shaping up. Not because I don't have a boyfriend, no. I have Lennie as my Valentine but we couldn't make it at the end. So I was training as usual, spent my day as normal as any other day when I saw 4 missed calls from Lennie and an unread email. I called Lennie and guess what she had to tell me? She went for interview and the lady asks if Lennie happened to know anybody who's currently looking for a job. She thought of me and mentioned me to her. She got me an interview with the lady :)

And I got an email from my sister-in-law's friend. I don't think I should mention the name of the company. So I'm gonna call it "G Company". In the email she said that she tried to call me but couldn't reach through so she wanted me to reply her email or simply call her back. I called and got myself another interview on Wednesday 4PM. I couldn't be happier! It's the best Valentine ever! :D :D :D

I really hope I could get this right. I hope I could land myself a job in one of the companies *fingers-crossed*

New Year New Idea

It's the first day of chinese new year and our house has been the headquarters all along. Families were coming from all over Jakarta. Babies. Kids. Adults. It feels nice to have them around when you are comfortable with him. When you're not... one minute feels like ten (but I really don't want to talk about negative stuff today).

I went upstairs to cool down since it had been a hectic day and chatted with my sister. She told me that my Dad wants to give me my own room. So when the baby's born, he/she could have a place in its mom's bedroom, together with its mommy. I am so excited when I heard about that. My own room. It has been forever since I can sleep in my own room. I have my own room in Pontianak. I have my own room in Kuching and hell yea I want my own room in Jakarta too.

My sister has told me some furniture items that she likes and I agree with her. They are stylish and efficient.  This topic is totally dominating my mind right now. I am super excited. Here are some of my ideas of what I will do with the room (if my Dad will let me).

Red
I want one side of the walls to be RED in color. Yea, you read that right. RED. Well, it's my color. It used to be my name. I like it.


I think it will be very chic. I haven't really decide which side of the walls is it gonna be but I think it should be like the head board for my bed or something. But I want it to be really red. Ferrari Red kinda red.


Bed with storage drawer
It is such a fabulous idea to have bed with storage below it. Especially for someone like me who has bunch of stuff: cosmetics, daily essentials, books, clothes, undies, lappie and more. So I always need huge storage and storage drawer under the bed is a perfect idea.




Closet
is something that I've always wanted (like the one Carrie from 'Sex and the City' has) but there is no way I can have a closet in that tiny room.

Carrie's Closet

Dream Closet

So I will have a clothes cabinet instead. Some of the designs does look like a mini closet.


And there is one in Indonesia which my sister recommend. But the price is just... way out of my budget. It's Albatros Clothes Cabinet which is 2.4 meter tall (the same height as my wall). I love it but... Well, yea...

Bed Lamp
I bought a bed lamp when I was in Thailand but never really got to use it. And I think now is the best time to use it :) I have one which look almost like this.


Body Length Mirror
Owh yes. A body length mirror is a must. I think me, Yola and Lennie always love the mirror. I will definitely put it where I wouldn't be able to see it from my bed or I'll freak out with my own reflection in the middle of the night... and it's just not funny.


Anyway, there are so many other things to worry about but the idea of having my own room made me excited :)

Good night xx

Welcoming the year of Bunny

The year of the rabbit (or I prefer to call it bunny) according to Lunar calendar. This is a pretty special year for all of us. My sister is pregnant and we are expecting a baby born this year (baby bunny) and we are also expecting another person to be pregnant (my sister-in-law). Is she does get pregnant soon, then we're gonna have another baby bunny or else, we're gonna have a baby dragon (same as me). 

Metal gives Rabbits a more resilient demeanor than the other more quiet Rabbit. These Rabbits are very ambitious and can be quite crafty in their dealings with others. They throw themselves and their emotions into everything they do, making them intense lovers, but not outwardly affectionate lovers. Their determination can affect their work as well, whether through personal relationships with colleagues or with the work itself, a Rabbit can be known to immerse himself in his projects…business and personal.

LEONINE DRAGON 
The Lion is King of the Western zodiac and the Dragon is the sign of the Emperor. Leo Dragons have an innate sense of royalty; thus they are born leaders. They are flashy and like to show-off, but their kindness and zest for life make them fascinating.
(I'm kinda agree with this)

I was watching the fireworks with my family and somehow it made me feel like five years old all over again. Easily awed and happy and energetic and just simple. My wish for the coming year is: so I can feel like that every single day. Feel exactly that: five-years-old-who's-easily-awed-happy-energetic-and-simple. Our brain is powerful. If we truly think that we are happy, then we are. I wish everyone the same for the coming year.

Happy Chinese New Year :D

Resolution 2011

I figure it's not too late to actually decide on my new year resolution, ey? Or maybe I am late but hey, it's better late than never.

1. New Body
Hell yeah! I lost 10 kgs before and I can do it again. But I gotta maintain it this time around. It's all about commitment, whether or no. And maybe I'm a novice in commitment and all but when I say I'm committed, that means I am. So I've been training with a personal trainer who happened to be so huge! Somehow I kinda like it when someone is forcing me to do stuff (positive ones of course).
Trainer : "So, what did you eat yesterday?"
Me : "Well, hmmm... *cough*"
Trainer : "So?"
Me : "Rendang, fish, chocolate cake, cheese, cookies"
Trainer : "Owh wow... Good job!"
Me : "Huh?"
Trainer : "Btw, prepare yourself because there will be NO mercy for next training session."
Me : "owh... oo...kkk?"

Judge by how devoted (and huge) he is, I will get my new body ;)

2. New Job
Owh definitely a new job is in my list because when I get a new job, I can see myself put "checked-mark" one by one in my wish-list. It's just so crucial at the moment. And I'm not talking just normal job. I wanted a job which I like to do. It has to make me fall in love with it. And somehow everything fit into its place.

3. More time with family
It sounds so drama like but seriously it's what I really want. And I know it's contrary to what I wrote on number 2 but I am sure I can still spend time with them :)

4. Wake up earlier
I've always been the sleepyhead. I love to sleep. That's my third fav thing to do (after kissing and sex). However I do think that I sleep a lil too much lately and I need to reduce that and wake up earlier. So I can be more productive :)

5. Be more patient and see the positive (and funny) in everything.
Guess it's clear enough...

6. Be in love again
I think one and half year is more than enough to drag about Ian all along. Now it's time for me to be in love with someone else. Someone who can make me open myself to him. Someone who can stand me. Someone who really love me :)

Work is not fun

You know how it was when you were kid, you always wish to grow up; to be independent or so-called free from all the rules from your parents. Well, that didn't actually happen to me. I grew up being daddy's little girl. Spoiled. I got the best life of all my siblings. When my sister and brother were young, they had to survive with 'enough' money. And I? I normally get what I want.

When I was in my university life, I was really afraid of what I were to face in the working world. But I wanted to work in the same time! How crazy is that? In short, I was lost. Unfortunately I still am.

But now I have this urge to have income on my own. I want to be able to move out from this house and be on my own. My own apartment. My own car. My own money. I know at some point I would miss people telling me what to do but I can always come back to my house for a week or so. However, if you ask me now, I want to be on my own.

As much as I hate to work, I want to live on my own. And in order to do that I have to have money. And to have money, I need to earn it.
It is so hard to figure what I really want to do. I have a degree on my hand but I suck at it. How pathetic?  I feel like marrying Hugh Hefner and never have to work and still be fabulous. But then again, I don't want to fuck him *sigh*

Keeping my finger crossed... xx

Loner part 2

I could never really finish my blog post because everytime I feel like doing it, my sister or someone would talk to me. And when they done with the talking, I just don't feel like writing anything anymore. Am I weird? I think so. How can I not want to talk to anybody?

Loner

I remember when I was in high school or during my university life, I used to be the joker of the group. I did stupid stuff. I was really cheerful. It was like as if I never ran out of energy.

But I do realize that nowadays it's different. I have had become a loner. I prefer to be on my own. I don't even listen when my sister is talking to me (which is bad). Sister don't do that to each other. I find it hard to focus on those conversation we had. I was not interested in listening. It's just not a good sign.

Well, truly I think I'm gonna blame this on him again. Ever since that incident happened, I buried myself from the social life. I prefer to be on my own, really. I'm tired of talking and relating with anybody at all. And just now I realized that I don't even want to be in a relationship. Lately I've been thinking that I need somebody by my side. A boyfriend. But hell no. I totally changed my mind now. I don't want to be with anybody. I just wanna be on my own.

Seriously. I want to be busy. So I don't have to think about all these and be miserable.

Good night xx
