bingung mau kasih title apa

wah ga kerasa udah hampir 1 taun gw di melbourne, hidup di kota baru dengan orang-orang yang baru tanpa keluarga satu pun. menurut gw, milih kuliah disini instead of di indo aja or other country adalah keputusan paling berani yang pernah gw buat selama gw hidup sampe sekarang. wow.


sering gw mikir kenapa ya gw pilih kuliah disini. kenapa ga di indo aja? kenapa ga di swiss? kenapa ga di sg? kenapa ga di korea aja biar bisa ketemu lee min ho?

dalam waktu hampir 1 tahun ini gw merasakan ada banyak sekali perubahan yang terjadi di dalam diri gw. ceileh. yang pasti tambah mandiri, skill masak gw juga jadi mendingan karna disini masak sendiri ga ada orang lain yg masakin, lebih berani, bahasa inggris jadi lebih lancar dan msh banyak yang lainnya.

hidup sendiri kayak gini banyak suka dan dukanya. senengnya sih bebas mau ngapain, kemana dan kapan aja. mau jungkir balik di kamar sampe puas silahkan. ga mau makan seharian juga silahkan.

beberapa hari belakangan ini gw merasa lagi dikasih ujian sama Yang Diatas. tau sendiri kan kebiasaannya kalo masalah itu seringnya dateng bertubi-tubi. nah itu dia apa yang lagi terjadi sekarang. dan kalo lagi stress macem kayak gini nih pasti ingetnya lee min ho. ya gak lah.

ngomong-ngomong soal si ganteng lee min ho, awal bulan april nanti ada seri drama korea terbaru loh yang bintang utama cowonya dia. judulnya personal preference. gw sudah sangat amat tidak sabar menanti. gw cari-cari di youtube trailer or apanya kek gitu ga ada sama sekali T.T menyedihkan sekali sih.


ya sudahlah. peace love and gaul semuanya bye

pengen tendang2 kursi
pengen gebuk2in guling sama bantal
pengen makan bakso di indo (loh)
pengen liat lee min ho in person (lohhh)

impossible is nothing

tadi pas di tengah-tengah kelas temen gw tiba-tiba tanya sebuah pertanyaan yang sangat amat mengagetkan kayak gini (well sebenernya ga terlalu extreme mengagetkan sih. pertanyaannya udah sering orang tanya)

"hey monica, if you could make 3 wishes on anything you like, what are your wishes?"

dan karna tadi gw jawabnya ga pake istilah mikir jadinya jawab asal-asalan yang ada di otak aja.
1. get my bachelor
2. have lots of money
3. have a wonderful family

dan sekarang setelah gw pikir-pikir, yang nomor 3 kok kayaknya agak lumayan serius ya. gw jadi merinding sendiri pantesan aja tadi si temen gw itu kaget pas gw ngomong have a wonderful family. sekarang gw tau kenapa dia kaget karna gw sendiri juga kaget. sebenernya 3 itu kurang menurut gw. maruk sih tapi normal kan. namanya juga manusia, ga pernah puas dan selalu menuntut ini dan itu. ok let's make it 7 wishes then cause 3 is not enough, really.

1. kedamaian di dunia. bosen gw denger berita pembunuhan, demo di jalan, perang, penculikan dan lain sebagainya
2. punya banyak duit tanpa harus kerja keras. lol
3. get my bachelor
4. keliling dunia tanpa harus bayar tiket pesawat bersama orang-orang yang gw sayangi *ceileh*
5. nonton konser band apapun yang gw mau dan dimanapun, vip class
6. bisa makan sepuasnya tapi ga gendut-gendut
7. happily ever after


kan katanya impossible is nothing jadi bisa aja loh suatu saat apapun yang diimpikan jadi kenyataan.

gajelas

posting kali ini ga akan jauh-jauh dari topik postingan yang sebelum2nya.

dari kemarin, tepatnya gara-gara selese nonton boys before flower dan kepincut setengah mati sama lee min ho gw jadi terpacu buat makan masakan korea. akhirnya gw ajak housemate gw buat makan korea.

tadi sore gw, housemate plus 1 temen gw makan di han guk kuan
trus begitu masuk,

si waiter orang korea: brepbrerperberereprerpep *ga ngerti*
gw dan temen2 gw: haa? *cengok*
si waiter orang korea: *tersenyum*
gw: *bales senyum plus tepar* (ganteng bok soalnya)
si waiter orang korea: how many person?
gw: three
si waiter orang korea: ok.. *jalan sambil tunjukkin meja*



kesimpulannya adalah, yes. gw dikira orang korea. WAHAHAHAH

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!!

today, is the very first day i celebrate chinese new year WITHOUT my family.
no swear words of course, it's new year. it's kinda different this year for me.. my family and i always celebrate together and had a dinner the day just before chinese new year. babi hong, shark fin, mie goreng, capcay, etc. but i've had that one tough yesterday with my friends. i was working from 4 to 8 pm and then after i finish i go to my friends's apartment and had dinner there. the babi hong, mie goreng, nasi hainam and others were fantabolous. superrr. i had fun last night and luckily my housemate was also there so we could take train back home together.

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR! HAVE FUN!

sang pemimpi

Sang Pemimpi by Gigi, OST Sang Pemimpi


sambut hari baru di depanmu
sang pemimpi siap untuk melangkah
beri tanganku jika kau ragu
bila terjatuh ku kan menjaga
kita telah berjanji bersama
taklukkan dunia ini
menghadapi segala tantangan bersama
mengejar mimpi-mimpi

berteriaklah hai sang pemimpi
kita takkan berhenti di sini

kita telah berjanji bersama
taklukkan dunia ini
menghadapi segala tantangan bersama

reff:
bersyukurlah pada yang maha kuasa
hargailah orang-orang yang menyayangimu
yang selalu ada setia di sisimu

siapapun jangan kau pernah sakiti
dalam pencarian jati dirimu
dan semua yang kau impikan
tegarlah sang pemimpi

berteriaklah hai sang pemimpi
kita takkan berhenti di sini

kita telah berjanji bersama
taklukkan dunia ini
menghadapi segala tantangan bersama

i heart United Kingdom.

I LOVE ENGLAND.
ohmygod. everytime i hear UNITED KINGDOM, i feel like want to eat (lho). No. i feel like really, really, extremely, positively, definetely, surely and gladly want to visit that whole country. i am your biggest fan, UK!

i've been currently liking UK since maybe 1 year ago. not a really long time ago but yeah i am falling in love with it. it's not because of harry potter. i'm not sort of a big fan of that. i usually watched the movie after it's been gone from the cinema maybe several months later. but for the last movie, it was different. i watched it with my friends in the premiere at 10 pm until 1 in the morning. i was under influence of united kingdom.

i love the accent. i love the culture. i love the fashion. i love everything.
when i was watching harry potter and the half of blood prince, i really was paying attention to the conversation and how they talked. sometimes, when i got spare times, i often went to youtube and search how to spell words in english accent. how i adore the accent. i've never been like this to any other language or accent, just british accent.

i quite like one of gigi's song called sang pemimpi because it makes me never stop dreaming to go to london one day to have a visit or maybe stay there for a while. look at the lyric, so motivating.

in the city where i am living, here in melbourne, some of the building and the culture are based on united kingdom. that is because a long time ago, Down Under was under British civilization. but now, there are many building that is in modern design which is uh not good. i've ever been to a city called Ballarat and went to Sovereign Hill. i made a post about that place few months ago and i still adore it until now. it is so british.

I LOVE UNITED KINGDOM. yeahhh that's all

la la la

tadi pagi menuju siang, sekitaran jam 9an gw ada break kelas gitu 2 jam lebih. nah kalo udah urusan break gw paling puyeng. kenapa? simply cause bingung mau ngapain. pulang ke rumah, waktunya abis buat di jalan doang. ke mall, tapi toko-toko blom buka. mau makan, tapi terlalu pagi. ke library, bosen. kerjaannya cuma buka facebook gitu-gitu doang. mabok.

pertamanya, gw dan 3 temen gw pergi ke melbourne central. itu kayak mall gitu. tapi sayangnya kita kepagian jadi blom ada toko-toko yang buka. oke, kenyataan pahitnya adalah kita harus segera hengkang dari tempat itu. kita ga memutuskan buat balik ke tempat kuliah karna breaknya masih lama. jadi salah satu dari temen gw ngusulin buat ke QV, kayak mall gitu tapi bukan mall juga sih sebenernya hmm plaza gitu kali ya nyebutnya. so off we. sialnya, disana cuma ada toko-toko baju yang harganya gileee bok. beli 1 baju, kerja 1 tahun. ga juga sih.

akhirnya, kita nyerah juga ada disana lama-lama. kita keluar, jalan sedikit, ke tempat tram, nunggu tram dateng, lalu kita ke...

*drumroll*

yak, kita ke garden wawaawwahahahah.
dan apa yang kita lakukan disana?
2 temen gw, dan gw sendiri tiduran di rumput.
well, itu bukan pertama kalinya sih gw tiduran di rumput. tapi kali ini rasanya beda aja. awannya yang biru lagi bergerak, pohon-pohon yang masih ijo dan rimbun, liat orang-orang yang lagi tiduran di rumput juga. wow. gw berasa lagi ga di sebuah pusat kota suatu big city. serasa di kampung or somewhere.

bisa rileks sambil tiduran. day-dreaming. menggantungkan harapan-harapan setinggi langit yang biru itu.

suatu scene yang sangat jarang gw temuin di jakarta.

jamie vs gordon

current obsession:

1. FIFTEEN RESTAURANT by Jamie Oliver. uh, love him. would love to try his loveable restaurant here in melbourne. but the price is pretty expensive. geez. maybe i could spent around $70 up to 100 for only a dinner or lunch. i feel a bit lucky because he just opened fifteen in london, amsterdam and melbourne if i'm not mistaken. so i'm here why not trying his menu. yeah.

2. ROCKPOOL BAR AND GRILL by Gordon Ramsay which just opened on december 2009. i may say he is the rudest chef i've ever known. his words are sooo pathetic. swear words are often heard from his mouth but i think he is a great chef tough. i was just looking at the menu and it sounds absolutely delicious. can't wait to have a go.

maaf wahai kulkas yang tidak berdosa

suatu kejadian naas telah terjadi dan karena gw orangnya jujur, baik hati, selalu senang dan riang *lho* jadi gw ngaku kalo subjek nya adalah gw sendiri. kali ini objek penderitanya bukan orang atau makhluk hidup (untungnya, kalo ga kasian) tapi...

jreng.. jreng.. jreng..

KULKAS.

YEAH... kulkas.

jadi begini cerita selengkapnya, kemarin sore sekitar jam 5an lewat, gw dan housemate gw, kita berdua sebelumnya emang udah punya komitmen *ceileh pake komitmen2 segala* kalo di hari minggu mau bersihin es-es batu yang udah ngegumpel di kulkas. ada yang mojok sendirian segede perutnya pemain sumo, ada yang nempel di langit-langit freezer dan ada juga yang nempel di dasar freezer. sayang, coba aja semut tahan dingin, mungkin mereka-mereka bisa main ski di freezer kulkas gw.

sekarang gw bisa ngebayangin kenapa kapal titanic bisa tenggelem abis nabrak gunung es. keras banget bok. jangankan ditabrak, dipegang sedetik aja dinginnya membekas di hati. kali ini gw ga bisa bayangin gimana dinginnya kutub-kutub. out of my mind.

oke back to the naas story, gw sempet mikir gimana ya caranya copotin es-es itu dengan cara yang paling efektif. housemate gw bilang, katanya mending pake hair dryer aja soalnya ntar lama-lama esnya jadi mencair kalo kena panas. ya, bener juga. so, kita ambil hair dryer masing-masing, colokin ke listrik dan nge-hair-dryer-in para es-es. satu orang di freezer trus satu oran di fridge biasa. cara itu efektif lho soalnya dalam itungan detik ga sampe menit, esnya mulai mencair dan air udah dimana-mana.

nah disinilah ke-keren-an kita beraksi.

di kulkas bawah, ada gumpelan es segede perut sumo persis di pojokan sebelah kiri. resenya, di dalem es raksasa itu ada kabel listrik yang ikutan beku. kita shock. wah, gimana nih ada kabel. mana bisa kita main kasar sama itu perut sumo. abis kira-kira satu jam an lebih, es yang ada di freezer udah bisa diangkat semua. kita pun jerit-jerit saking terlalu senengnya. untung ga guling-guling di meja makan kalo ga kan kasian, bisa roboh seketika.

masalah pun mulai berdatangan. si es perut sumo tuh ternyata susah banget dicairin saking terlalu gede. kalo itu dicincang-cincag dijadiin es batu mungkin bisa jadi 1 truk kali. lalu entah karena kita terlalu pintar atau justru malah terlalu bodoh, kita memutuskan untuk menggunakan pisau sebagai senjata kita melawan es raksasa itu. mau tau apa yang kita lakukan? yeahhh ini dia.

kita sodok-sodok itu es pake piso dapur. luar biasa kan? pertamanya housemate gw pake piso kecil, karna ga sabaran dan takut patah, gw kasih ide buat pake piso yang lebih gede. ga segede golok sih, cuma itu masih tergolong gede dan pastinya sakit kalo keiris. setelah sekian lama, akhirnya es perut sumo itu berhasil kita kalahkan. kali ini teriakan kita lebih kenceng daripada yang sebelomnya. untung hari minggu, tetangga-tetangga pada asik pacaran *sotoy* jadinya ga tau.

setelah gw pikir-pikir, kasian banget ya nasib es batu itu di tangan kita berdua. udah di sodok-sodok pake piso, di hair-dryer-in, di angkat paksa, digoyang ke kanan kiri, diguncang-guncang, ditusuk-tusuk pula. akibatnya, sekarang lampu kulkas bawahnya ga nyala alias rest in violent. ac nya masih tetep nyala sih tapi ga sedingin yang dulu. tadinya sih panik, lho kenapa ga nyala lampunya pas dibuka. tapi lama-kelamaan kalo dinget-inget kejahatan apa aja yang udah kita lakukan jadi pengen ketawa ngakak. dari yang awalnya kita ngomong aduh aduh mulu berakhir jadi "gw cape ketawa nih. stop". gw pun berenti ketawa dan raut muka kembali serius.

dengan perasaan bersalah, panik dan pengen dipijet abis jongkok berjam-jam *ga nyambung* akhirnya kita memutuskan buat telpon ibu kos dan kasih tau kondisi kulkas kita saat itu. dia bilang katanya sayur sama buah yang ga tahan lama harus dimasak kalo ga basi. yah mana siangnya baru beli sayur sama buah tadi di supermarket. banyak pula. akhirnya, kita masak semua sayur-sayur dan blender buah di tengah malam hari. jam 10an kita selese masukkin barang-barang ke kulkas and freezer dan kira-kira setengah jam kemudian kita udah siap-siap buat masak 1 bunch caisim sama 1 bunch kailan. ditambah harus buat nasi goreng karna kita udah stock banyak nasi. takutnya kalo itu kulkas beneran rusak, bisa busuk semua makanan-makanan kita jadi apa yang kira bisa dimasak, kita masak.

sekitar jam 12an, akhirnya selese juga acara masak-memasak dan blender-memblender. capenya ga ketolongan bok. coba aja ada doraemon, pasti gw minta dipijetin. ibu kos gw bilang kalo lain kali mau bersihin bebenah kulkas, cara cairin es nya bukan di tusuk-tusuk pake piso soalnya bisa aja kabelnya ada yang konslet ato kepotong. simple aja, tinggal matiin kulkas, keluarin semua isi-isi trus tunggu aja sampe esnya semua mencair. ga perlu cape-cape malahan.

pengalaman baru. jangan sampe kita melakukan kejahatan lagi pada kulkas di lain kesempatan pas mau bersihin es-es yang udah membeku. ya, semoga aja. cepet nyala ya lampu kulkas. tidak ada kamu, dunia serasa gelap. ahahahhay



THE END. cape ngetik. bye

wishes

it's been a week i am being here. for the first two days i felt really, really homesick. i was like want to go home straight away. i looked at the calender and counting how days left until i'll be back home. it was way too early. 10 months seemed like 10 centuries at that time.

but now, i'm enjoying melbourne pretty much again. yeay me.

last night, i did some digging up about fares to sydney and another city in australia. my spirit to travel across the city is raising. i was planning to go here, there, that and this. too much plans i may say.

unfortunately, i am going back to tafe at the moment and it is pretty impossible for me to go around australia at this kind of time. i should wait until easter holiday comes and it's like 1 or 2 months to go i don't know. i wish i could go somewhere on easter holiday like..


SYDNEYYYYY!!! OR QUEENSLANDDD!!! OR GOLD COASTTT!!!!

inhales..
exhales..
inhales..
exhales..

*too excited*

Thursday, February 4, 2010

wow.

i want to share a bit nasty story here. yeah, here we go.

i've been learning first aid course recently at my tafe and it is going to end by tomorrow.

actually i quite like the teacher. he's old already, around 60s i guess but he speaks cleary so i could understand what he has said pretty well. he uses powerpoint to present the module and when i saw the total number of slides, i was like, shocked. 105 slides. GAH.

and he always gives description for each slide.
EVERY SINGLE SLIDE. 105 slides.

so it could take up to 10 minutes per slide. sometimes 20 minutes or even more.
105 slides, man! it took 2 days to finish it from the very first slide until the very end.

GREAT.

okay, continue.

so, every single students received one plastic bag including a booklet, band aids, brochure, stuff like that. at the end of the lesson, we usually just leave the plastic bag in the class so we don't need to carry them back on the next day.

today, the teacher told us that we're gonna have test on friday. at the end of the lesson, i left the booklet and my book notes at class and forgot about the test. my friend and i went out from the classroom dengan nyantainya but all of sudden, i remembered that we're actually have test tomorrow and i told my friend. then, we decided to go to the class and hoping the teacher still there. so off we.

when my friend opened the classroom door...
something shiny, very very shiny attract our eyes.
i saw lots lots.. and lots of chest hairs.
yes, we saw one of the teacher half naked.
GEEZ.

luckily, he was wearing short at that time so not full naked. but it was a super tight short you know like biking short. i don't know what the name is but yeah something like that. very tight. after we entered the class, he directly wore a tshirt. fortunately, he taught the other class so we are pretty much don't know him even his name. but, i saw my teacher there. stand quite close to the next door teacher.

now, the question is, what was he doing at the classroom?
just two people there, all guys, in a silent room.

JRENG JRENG JRENG... *musiknya kayak sinetron indo kalo pemain jahatnya lagi mau ngebantai orang*
