Been 2 years since my last business trip,
and I am back from one these few days.
This time, alone. First time, alone, luckily in a familiar city.
Felt a little lonely on the streets,
where there are so many things ringing in your head
from what you see on the streets but there's no one to share with.
I start to think if I will grow old this way.
Very scary.

How do you trust someone enough to spend your lives together?
People change, at a rate so fast that you cannot imagine.
Some people doesn't change, no matter how much chances you give.
I wish there will be no heart breakers.
I wish there will be no lies.
I wish for a sweet ending.
Many times, only a myth.
It's hurts more on an important date.

some days I forget why on earth
did I go and rebond my hair.

some days I wish I was born in a place with winter.
some days I wish I am perfect but there's only so much I can do.

maybe I really need to escape.
run away from responsibilities,
social norms, growing old,
being poor.
Being accountable makes me a devil
whom I can't even recognize.
I don't get married
because I don't believe in it.
i don't earn peanuts
but somehow what I earn doesn't get me
what I need and want and that's sad.

I miss my primary school.

where willows sway and an aged tree stays.

but nothing changed.
gone are the carefree days.

just to mark this date in history. (very duh)
1) I rebonded my hair for the first time in my life.
2) I found someone with the same name & surname as me. Considering that it is very uncommon. The best part of it, her sister's name is what some people will call me too.

decision making is simple. there are only 2 choices most of the time: to be happier? or to remain status quo?
I guess, the answer is clear.
all good things turn bad, whether you want it or not, and that's about how this world is made to be.
an apple will rot. a plant will wilt. a weekend can be spoilt. a moment can be lost.
it is important for everyone to find their own ways, because we only live once.

i want to blabber and just blabber away, about how my life has been good or bad.
mahjong is bad, been losing money. the same night i must have been cursed, i even dropped my instant camera somewhere that i don't even remember.
next morning i woke up grouchy, and didn't realised my camera was missing till mid-day. feeling very pissed i called the taxi to report the loss.
3 days later, as i sourced high and low for a replacement, i even dreamt that i found the camera, with my frog sticker on it, and me smiling away sharing the joy with p. i woke up to realised it's only a dream.
2 hours later, i started to look into the hp, and saw the cannot believe it's true sms, that my camera was found.
well, i almost wanted to kiss the floor, there and then.
1 week later, today. i drove to the taxi HQ to collect my camera, and now feeling very satisfied with myself.

Taking years to reach that makes me treasure the significance. The true significance is that I thought that could bring me closer to you and others.

How to quit bubble tea
1) Think of the long queue, very long queue. 2) Think of soggy pearls, lousy pearls 3) Think of the calories 4) Think of better, yummier options.
How to love Red Mango 1) No long queues! 2) Generous serving of fresh sweet mango topping 3) Ice Cold frozen yoghurt without the sourness 4) Healthier option

wanted to blog but tired, you know how it feels?
not much of roller coaster rides recently that makes me want to voice out anything. there are silly moments at work, personal life and such, but that's about it.
I still value Christmas alot, even though it doesn't fall within my religion. This year's Christmas was simple, simple gifts, meet ups.
It wasn't extravagant, as this is not a time to show off what you give/receive, but to share joy and love.
All I want for Christmas is to meet one of my 2010 resolutions, and I've got it, today.
You can say I'm over the moon, but for now, not yet, I am nursing a fever and cold.
life is great. (noticed how I say the same words when I was sick in Sept) -_-

bandung trip in 20 photos out of the 600+ i took.
the purpose of this visit is to attend mel's wedding, but I still love this place lots. wonderful weather, especially at night! 20 degrees only. i could hardly perspire there.
the trip there was more mafan, as we took a cheaper option of flying to jakarta then bandung.
the bus to bandung was bad, there were people smoking in the bus, choking 3.5 hours ride.
later, we realised we aren't as bad, than having the pilots smoking in our friend's plane -_- wo de tian.
they've very chio hotels there. the room of the wedding couple.
this is where they nicely put us up at, a villa of a relative where we stayed, as big as a community centre.
the wedding day, where we were jie meis for the day.
the garden party at night. very pretty.
weddings in Indonesia are mainly buffet style.
they even have sparks when they kiss on stage!
there's more to this wedding cake.
we discover that while we were hungry in the next morning, that these are kueh lapis in disguise! yum.
saturday was excursion day. mel's family brought us to strawberry farm.
to see the volcano crater
a hot spring resort
then dinner to end off the night with very good thai food.
Sunday morning, saying good bye to the room and villa.
the next day was just spent getting the brownies, having lunch at the mall, before we took at 4 hours bus journey back to Jakarta.
i like this yoghurt concept.
people here can smoke freely anywhere, and in malls as well, and their food courts, not used to it for awhile..
