The Guest House

2010-07-19T12:04:00.005+02:00

This being human is a guest house...

Every morning a new arrival...

A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor...

Welcome and entertain them all !

Even if they are a crowd of sorrows,

who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture,

still, treat each guest honorably...

He may be clearing you out for some new delight... (red: Insya Allah!)

The dark thought, the shame, the malice...

Meet them at the door laughing and invite them in...

Be grateful for whatever comes..Because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.

(Jalaluddin Rumi)

PS: plus i got to do my long-postponed shopping..2 birds hit by one stone!

Quotation 14 January 2010

2010-01-14T00:09:00.003+01:00

Tell me..What's the meaning of life to you?

And I found an interesting answer..I just read it through one of the silly game in my iPhone..

"Life is what happens while you're busy making other plans."

John Lennon (1940 - 1980)

Mi Gelas

2009-10-29T21:54:00.004+01:00

Akhirnya balik lg deh ke Paris..ga kerasa, udah 3 minggu aja nih ninggalin Bandung..balik ke rutinitas semula, bermain2 dgn angka..pulang malem..dan homesick tentunya.. :(

Walo yg terakhir rada susah di atasin secara konkrit (yg murah dan bisa diselesaikan dlm waktu dekat), mari kita bahas tentang penanggulangan problema yg pertama; yaitu pulang malem karena maen ama angka..

Capek..ditambahin ama laper...ini dia solusinya...Mi Gelas!!
Untung aja ngangkut Mi Gelas pas liburan kmrn...
Ga disangka ga dinyana...terdapat berjuta kekuatan di dalamnya...hehehe..untung cup di vending machine msh cukup nampung sbg wadah..cm lupa bawa sendok nih, jd deh bungkus sambel ABC dijadiin pengaduk.. :D

Tapi beso2 ngaduknya hrs lbh semangat..soalnya td rada kaget, belakangan kok kaya lg sakaw ama serbuk Royco..hehehehe....

The two little rascals

2009-10-01T19:45:00.003+02:00

Yup..that's how I call my two little nephews..My sister and her husband might call them "Little Princes"..But I strongly disagree...

I just met them during this holiday (well, at least for the young one, I visited my sister when her first son was only few months old), but getting to know them was a crazy adventure..
My life lately was all about, running around, yelling, spanking (not even close to what you think!)...ouffff....

Yet, they look like little angels when they sleep... :)

Garfield

2009-09-05T12:18:00.004+02:00

Belakangan, dengan alasan pengen belajar bahasa Perancis yg lbh manusiawi dan sehari2 (lepas dr grammar dan teman2) jadilah mulai sering maen ke Bibliotheque kantor..Karena keinginan gw yg cukup lemah, jadilah cuma kuat ampe sebatas komik..Dan terpilihlah Garfield sebagai komik yang tadinya gw pikir ga bakal banyak ngomongnya..(hehe, curang)

Dari satu komik bisa selese seminggu, belakangan dah mulai jarang buka kamus dan bisa 4 komik seminggu..Bukan knapa2, tp ternyata masalah Garfield ya seputaran berat badan, makan dan tidur..jadi kosakatanya ga jauh2..buhuhuhu...

Ternyata Garfield ngegemesin yaaaa? Kaya ngeliatin karakter Pheobe di Friends..Karakter kuat, kadang ngelawan arus, ngegemesin, tp jg sering bikin dongkol.. :D

Trus hari ini saking bosennya krn hrs kekantor, yg ada malah browse websitenya Garfield..And guess what, first issue-nya Garfield itu 19 Juni 1978!!
Kakak gw aja belon lahir..ckckck...

Saatnya menikmati Garfield's 30 yrs of free comic strip..yiiihaaaaw!!!

My job and me

2009-08-06T00:23:00.003+02:00

It's another day..another night in Paris..after my working day..after the booring day.. :(

How could it be so ironic, when everybody say that I'm so lucky to be living in Paris, yet I've never really feel the ultimate joy??

I just hate my job..my current job..I really wish I could scream it out loud if it could make me feel better..but it can't..I wake up everyday, with no excitement of a promise of a beautiful day..I called myself being a zombie walking to that tall building to work..
I can not even enjoy the leisure time, because I know right after, I will have to go back to work in the same building, with all the stuck-up -nose people, with such boring job, and unpleasant co-worker...

How I miss Balikpapan and my old job...But is it really Balikpapan that I miss? If I were to sleep and wake up in Balikpapan the next morning, will I be happy again? When my bestfriends are not there anymore...My band crew is going their own way now..I already sold my cute 'mas anto'...
Will I be happy again in Balikpapan without them?

And then I checked my facebook (after long long time being ignored, cos I'm too busy -rather overwhelmed- in the office and may laptop starts to go crazy..), and my highschool friend posted our old class photo...I felt like I wanted to cry..And I really missed the easy and joyful life I had back then..I wasn't a social butterfly, indeed I wasn't...But, I can't recall such unhappy feeling I have now then..Yes, there were tests and boy problem..But I always remember it as happy time...

And then I watched a tv series tonite..Sex and the City..When Carrie Bradshaw just started her first few days as writer in Vogue..She thought about quitting, not only thought but she asked to her boss already..In the end she stayed and said:

"It's tempting to wish for the perfect boss or the perfect parents or the perfect outfit..But maybe the best any of us can do is not quit, and play the hands we've been given and accesorize the outfit we've got..."

Could I be as strong? Do I have to be so depressed and sad like this? It's a question I haven't been able to answer...

Starry night on my balcony

2009-07-27T00:23:00.004+02:00

That was really an inspiring 10 minutes alone on my balcony..perk on my parabole chaisse, enjoying Paris starry night..and guess what, this kinda my first time..after 10 month living in Paris..yeah..what a waste isn't it? :D

It's so inspiring that I posted 3 blogs right after..haha..

Well, got to go the bedfordshire now..Can't wait for the next ones.. :)

Hmmm..wait..another inspiration just emerged..Should I start to build mini garden there? Hm..why on earth not?!

12 - 14 July, Portugal

2009-07-26T23:39:00.006+02:00

Well it's quite unfair for Morocco and Greece since I didn't post any blog about both countries..Though I can tell that staying there is also exceptional, but let me share the good time I spent in Portugal..

Once again, I didn't prepare myself for any big eurotour on my own..Don't know why, but I'm not really that excited to cruise Europe anymore...Maybe I expect to do it with him later when everything's settled? (amiiiin..)..Or maybe, deep down I'm sort of expecting (or prejudiced??) that probably they all would look kinda typical..with almost identical structure and architecture..with the same year (or era) of glorious days which most of the time is around the year of colonialism.. (haha..bittersweet, isn't it?)..So, I was kinda "hitch-hiking" on my friend's trip to Portugal.. :D

Going to Portugal is quite entertaining..We spent the first and third day in Lisbon..Apart from the fact that it falls in the same category as above, Lisbon is a big city yet humble in my opinion..old but proper (imagine, they still got the antique trem running through the city..hah!), nice people and tasty food (this..is a good change from Paris...)

The second day, we took one day trip out of Lisbon..First to a castle up on the hill in a small town called Sintra..One of British poets called it "Heaven on Earth"..Make sense..with its beautiful views, greenery on the left side and Europe west coast on the right side..perfect..who wouldn't be reminded of God in this kind of beauty? :)

We stopped in many interesting spots along the coast before returning to Lisbon..But I do..still do remember how I fell in love with the coast in Cascais..It is said to be the most western coast of Europe..Gosh, this one..in my opinion is another place that u can call heaven on earth..the reason is not because of any human creation..but the view to the endless sea, just really breath taking..it reminds me of how much I love it..

If any of you is in a reasonable distance from this places, you really should try the trip!

8 July, Seal in Paris

2009-07-26T23:19:00.004+02:00

I wasn't really on the top of my toes for his concert actually and I don't consider myself as his big fan..Apart from the fact that I'm crazy about the drugging "Kiss from a Rose", which is imho is the best soundtrack of Batman's movies..Both in terms of musicality and also I think KFAR shares the same sense of mystery and darkness as of for Batman.. (:D )

But turned out I had really good time..He's a good performer, and I can tell you that he's loved in Paris..Bercy arena was crowded! (well, the first time I arrived I thought those empty seats will remain unoccupied..guess what, i'm overruled..!)
In fact, 1/3 of Seal's last album's selling worldwide is in France alone..wow! So, I suppose this information will help the imagination..:D

Yup, of course I have "ma petite decouverte".. :)
Love..love..love so much the song "Waiting for You"...

There has been no one brighter than you
I can't deny these things that I do
Feels like the world's at stake cos
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you...

The Accidental Husband - 2008

my birth day

2009-04-22T20:59:00.001+02:00

exactly this moment..29 yrs ago...

a note about someone passing by..

2009-03-11T22:11:00.000+01:00

What is the hardest part of being apart with someone that coincidentally meet you in the crossroad of your life?

It is very simple question really..What's so hard about it..? It shouldn't be..This person is just someone passing by..One would think...
They don't stay long enough to plant any root of memory..

It shouldn't be so hard on the day we say goodbye to each other..
It shouldn't be so hard on the last minute before we say goodbye..
It hadn't been, I suppose...

But I guess..the hardest part is when somewhere along the road, you realize that this someone meant more than you'd know and won't come back again to your life..

The Name of the Game

2009-03-08T21:45:00.000+01:00

Belakangan ini tiba2 jadi heboh nonton dvd..Pas lagi nyari2 dvd selanjutnya buat diputer (keabisan dvd nih critanya), tiba2 ngeliatin dvd ABBA hadiah dr temen lama yg belon pernah keputer..hmm kayanya dah lama jg ga dengerin lagu kakek nenek yg okeh banget ini.. ;)

Setelah melewati beberapa lagu, yang berkali2 membuat gw pengen ngutip..akhirnya stuck di lagu ini..cucok banget buat yg lagi timid-timid chat ama kecengan..menunggu progress selanjutnya..hehehe...enjoooyyy....:)

I've seen you twice, in a short time
Only a week since we started
It seems to me, for every time
I'm getting more open-hearted

I was an impossible case
No-one ever could reach me
But I think I can see in your face
There's a lot you can teach me
So I wanna know

What's the name of the game
Does it mean anything to you
What's the name of the game
Can you feel it the way I do

Tell me please, 'cause I have to know
I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow

And you make me talk
And you make me feel
And you make me show
What I'm trying to conceal

If I trust in you, would you let me down
Would you laugh at me
If I said I care for you
Could you feel the same way too
I wanna know..The name of the game

......

Your smile, and the sound of your voice
And the way you see through me
Got a feeling, you give me no choice
But it means a lot to me
So I wanna know

What's the name of the game

......

Welcome to the world, little Pilar..

2009-03-01T22:54:00.000+01:00

I'm so happy and relieved today..One of my bestfriends just delivered a baby boy..Despite the situation before her caesar operation (God, that was heartweaking situation), alhamdulillah everything seemed to have gone smoothly and the little prince that seemed so impatient to say hello to the world finally born.. :)

Though she gave an impression that she was a bit lost in the choises of babies' names, I got to say she has chosen a very strong and handsome name for her son. Pilar..gosh..I like the sounds already.. ;)

Felicitation Mama Mia and Papa Senna..May he be a sholeh son ya..Amiin...

When I feel like practicing Mom' recipes

2009-02-22T21:31:00.002+01:00

This weekend is my turn to prepare a home-cooked dinner for mes camarades, Pipit and Rangga..:)..Last dinner we had was in Pipit's appartment..But we were with Made that time..But this time, Made's place was taken by Cedric, a French friend I met in Balikpapan..And last time, we had a crazy karaoke nite..but tonite, it's card game blast.. :D

So this time's theme is Padang food which is known for its high demands and traps..Wrong timing, leads to disaster..Wrong amount of spices, leads to catastrophe..haha..I got to sms my Mom so many times for tips and tricks..haha..Poor her..I know she didn't enjoy texting with the mobile's tiny keypads..:D

Ben..voila..my home made Dendeng Balado (Chilli Fried Beef), Gulai Ayam (Chicken Curry), Samba Uok jo tari (Steamed chilli with baby-fish), and Soto Ayam (Chicken Soto)..But I got to admit, I used instant puree for Soto..But for the others, I prepare them from zero.. ;)

Dendeng Balado...Fuh, local imported chilli is so hot..

All in, plus flower..haha..

And tonite, after having this whole Sunday relaxing, I still feel pain on my shoulders..Apart from the fact that I have to juggle between getting the appartment clean and cooking, I grind the chilli and the spices the traditional way..Oaahh...I don't know how my Mom does it everyday and not complaining??

I love you more and more, Mom..You're such a hero in my heart..

ada 3

2009-02-20T22:39:00.000+01:00

ada 3 hal hari ini yang membuat gw in such good mood:

satu gara2 senior gw yang pikasebeleun rada jinak minggu ini..despite acidic welcome on monday he gave..huh..(after my weekend getaway to london..sirik loe ye?)
entah karena dia lagi jatuh cinta..entah karena dia br aja ketemu ama bos besar jd berasa penting..entah karena dia lg sibuk ama project laen makanya udah ga menarik lagi bt bikin gw bete..entah karena br dapet lotto..yang pasti senangnya bisa bernapas lega..;o)

kedua gara2 dapet pujian nih dr seseorang..(ganjen mode on)
doi bilang, gw keliatan oke banget dengan penampilan gw hari ini, dan gw harus lbh sering pake outfit yang sama..weis..ini bukan pujian sembarang pujian..datengnya dr orang yg pelit pisan muji2..
so, i value it..(sambil push-up cuping idung)..:D

ketiga gara2 abis aja nonton film bagus ama Pipit n Rangga mes camarades (hehe..), judulnya "Slumdog Millionaire"..emang keren beneuuur ini film..
one comment for the director: "Good job, man..!"
and one comment for the storyline: "What a life for such a young age..."

sekarang waktunya bobo nih..soalnya beso mo kerja rodi siapin makanan..belom shopping bahan2nya jg..bonne nuit everybody...:)

Quick trip to the past

2009-02-18T01:07:00.000+01:00

Baru aja selese beberes kamar dan ruang tamu nih..Udah malem sih, tp harus mulai dicicil, soalnya wiken ini giliran gw ngundang anak2 buat nyicip masakan padang a la jeci..Moga2 aja ga ancur yaa....hehehe...

Yang berkesan banget tuh, tadi pas lagi nyikat karpet ama sikat titipan mama yg dibawain ama mbak nenny..ternyata itu sikat ngeluarin aroma yg..hmm...manis kalo gw boleh mendeskripsikan dengan baik..Yang lucunya, wanginya mirip banget (ato seengganya mengingatkan gw) ama diary pertama yg pernah gw punya..huhuhu...flashback bok...ke jaman2 abg..haha..

It wasn't always nice then, but surely it had less complication than now..

Malam ini moga-moga aja bisa istirahat dengan tenang..Pengen rasanya bangun pagi dengan sedikiiit aja rasa semangat..Kaya dulu..

enough is enough

2009-02-16T10:48:00.000+01:00

All I want to do right now is just to scream..
To tear this building with the power of my voice..
(it would be a hell of an alter ego, isn't it?)
To say to you that enough is enough..

I don't want to hate you..but do you have to make me feel like an idiot all the time?
(plus hey, you're not that smart after all!!!)
Uuuurgh..I really want to go back to my life 2 yrs ago..
Where everything was just fine..and I still had my easy life in Tunu..

But then again, she wouldn't be the same jc as I am now.......

NKOTB in Paris

2009-02-05T01:38:00.000+01:00

Too good to be true..I was standing so close to my childhood #1 boys..Indeed, they're not young anymore, but hey, it's been 15 years..even us as their fans are no longer the cute little girls..hahaha..but one thing for sure, we still rock the concert arena, girls..! (and boys, the ones Donny said either a gentleman to take his woman or a guy with guts to admit they're NKOTB fans :D )

As Rangga said..they're so special because their stage performance is so magnificent..Even the audience in the sitting area are standing..unlike the previous concert we went to, he said..I guess you're right, Ngga..They still got the catch..:0)

They're creating an alive stage by changing images on different themes..Beat, romantic, sporty, even breakdance era..haha..we do have to remember that NKOTB covers the 80's as well...;)
And they still got beautiful voices too..

But one thing I noticed, my shy guy is still the same demure teenage boy tonight..I still remember how he blushed when everybody cheer on him to ask him to dance..aaawww..."Love you Jon!"..hahaha..there, I said it..hahaha...

Let's get this...!!!

Won't miss it this time..

2009-02-03T00:25:00.000+01:00

This morning, all of a sudden snow fell in Paris again..Hellooo, Paris meteo was fooled by nature another round..:-)
I walked to the office with a grin on my face..haha..Thinking that it wasn't such a shame that I didn't take the photos last time..I'm being given another chance..Yes!
Unfortunately, rain fell at the end of the day and it swept away the snow..Can't believe I missed it again..:(..Hopefully tomorrow will snow..Got to peek through my window before going out and get my camera ready..Won't miss it this time..

back on track...

2009-01-29T00:07:00.000+01:00

duh, dah lama banget ya ternyata ga nulis blog..semoga fans gw diluar sana ga kesepian selama vakumnya diri ini dari menarikan tarian jemari...(aseli narsis berat..:)..)

banyak..banyak banget yg bisa diceritain..but, what can i say..i think i should blame the "writer's block"..rasanya semua cerita ketelen lagi..kayanya energi abis utk yang lain..untuk fokus aja udah susah payah..hehe..hiperbola banget ya?

but hey, here i am..(hopefully) back on track..to confide you my stories again..

Doctor's Orders

2008-12-21T14:10:00.000+01:00

Hello? Hi honey..It's me...
I went to see the doctor today
Cos ever since you've been gone, I've had a pain deep down inside
He said there's nothing really wrong with me..I'm just missing my man
So honey..Please come on home as soon as you can

Doctor's orders say there's only one thing for me
Nothing he can do 'cos only you can cure me
Says in my condition love's the best physician
He's prescribed a potion full of warm emotion

Every day..a lovin' spoonful to be taken
It's the only way to stop this empty heart of mine from breakin'

Won't get better till you're back again he told me
Doctor's orders need your loving arms to hold me
Darling now I know there ain't no doubt about it
I'm so hooked on your love I can't live without it

You're away..but please don't treat me like a stranger
Doctor's orders say one kiss from you and I am out of danger

Please say you understand how I feel, honey
I know you've got a lot of things on your mind
Oh but I'm missing you so bad
Please oh please come on home

Doctor's orders say there's only one thing for me
Nothing he can do 'cos only you can cure me
Says in my condition love's the best physician
He prescribed a potion full of warm emotion

A Bientot, Made...

2008-12-14T23:30:00.000+01:00

Too many words circling around inside my brain..But somehow I couldn't find the catchy start for this blog..But I shan't give up on it..Because that night (as other nights before) was too fun in an overwhelming way not to be "inscribed".. :)

Maybe because of the good food, movie and weather as Rangga mentioned, maybe because the release needs from stressful week -at least for me- or maybe because the coffee just kicked in that made us keep on prolonging the night..Remember the starbucks excuse guys? Even starbucks knows when to call it a night.. :o)

It was indeed good food we had..
It was indeed good coffee and chocolate chaud in a cozy cafe..
It was indeed good shooping..(feel like winning..haha..)
It was indeed hilarious movie we watched..
It was indeed agreeable temperature that night..(it was just 2 degC..:D..) with a spectacular photo session at Grande Arche..

But I guess the fact that we're amongst good friends and it was the last night in Paris for our ADJ that made the four of us standing between Grande Arche and Marche de Noel, torn between going home and prolonging the night..And I even was pretty sure that someone was close to shedding a tear.. ;)

A bientot, Made..Wish you'll come back soon to Paris and we'll celebrate our group "re-unite" and perform a Gala Karaoke (who knows we've the gadget up and running by the time you return)...;)

This blog is dedicated to Pipit, Rangga dan Made..my bandmate..haha..kita namain apa ya band-nya?? :D

Trip to Geneva

2008-12-10T23:55:00.000+01:00

Today I flew to Geneva to sign my assignment contract. Another day..another adventure..

But not so soon, I almost cancelled the whole thing. Guess what, I forgot where I kept my passport. My oh my, old silly jeci..So unfocus lately (almost each day of my life, but got worse and worse these days..haha..)
I really got to stop spinning around..or at least I have to keep my eyes on something still, so I won't lose my balance.. ;)
Caiyoo..Aca-aca fighting..!!

The HR manager there is nice..I think, so far, she's the nicest person I met in the office..for female that is.. ;)
She got me a box of chocolate in the end of our session..maybe it's her habit..or do I have the face of "femme de chocolat"? or could it be all chocolate ladies will recognize each other no matter where..hahaha...

PS: It was snowing in Geneva..I even finally got to touch it..but the sensation was different with the one in Paris. Maybe mbak Shinta is right when she said: "jangan terlalu memimpikan duren..kalo nanti tiba2 kejatuhan duren rasanya bakal lbh istimewa..". I guess I get to the sense of your saying, mbak.. :)

Ditulis sambil compile CD album buat nina bobo..harus berani tidur dikamar malam ini..semangaat!

It's snowing in Paris...

2008-12-09T12:35:00.000+01:00

Right at this moment when I type this blog..finally I see the beautiful snow of Paris through my office window..Its not my official first snow experience, but the first snow I saw was too thin to be even real..
But this one is very beautiful..and very unexpected..because it comes when even those Parisiens said that, "don't expect to see snow in Paris thanks to all the polution.."

Does it mean we can expect something beautiful out of all the bad things in life??

I'd like to believe so...

Karaokean pertama di Paris

2008-12-07T09:29:00.000+01:00

Lemes..capek..ngantuk..pengennya bergelung seharian dibawah selimut yg anget dan dengerin CD Keane & Anggun yg br dibeli kmrn..tp masih harus nyetrika..huhuhu...:(
I blame pipit, made n rangga for this..:D..Becanda guys, sebaliknya gw malah mo bilang "thank you" banget buat tadi malem..akhirnya bisa bleed off karaokean jg (secara disini ga ada hepup dan partner in crime bt karaokean)..walopun mic yg kita pegang masing2 bener2 ajaib, mulai dr lampu kecil, bolpen, ampe telepon..hahaha...

Dimulai dari boysband yg menciptakan suasana 90's..(plus dengan label "nah yg ini nih homo nih" dr rangga..haha)..we travel in time ke lagu2 "jaman2 ama mantan gw" or "nah ini pas gw ngeceng si anu niiiih" (kecuali rangga, wazzup ngga? masih ama pacar pertama? hehehe...)

Pipit dengan "Always"-nya Bon Jovi, Made dengan "I Can Wait Forever"-nya Air Supply, dan gw...gw dengan lagu ini:

..........
It's the Way You Make Me Feel
(The way that you make me feel)
Spinning my world around
Tell me how can I walk away
I don't care what they say
I'm loving you anyway
It's the way you make me feel

When I look into your eyes
Everytime you smile at me
Oh I go weak inside
Baby I just can't hide my love
..........

(The way you make me feel by STEPS)

PS: Ayoo pit, beli perlengkapan karaokeannya..hohoho..:D

2, rue de Colmar

Yup..that's where I live..starting tonight..
My own "home sweet home"...in Paris...
With some things new..some things used..some things with memories..to accompany me..
Can't wait to write new histories in this space..
Will there be interesting ones?? Is the best yet to come...?

Lingua à la Paris..

2008-11-28T23:54:00.000+01:00

Uah..capeknya..ngambil cuti tapi kok lebih heboh drpd pas lg dikantor..haha..
Tapi seneng deh..un jour très efficace et joli...:)

1. Install tv decoder, telepon, dan internet..-- ampe pake diajak dinner pula ama teknisinya..waduh waduh..sorry monsieur, but you're not my type..

2. Nunggu delivery FNAC yg nganterin tv guedhe, LCD pula..kesannya keren banget padahal mah emang seluruh toko isinya either LCD ato plasma...

3. Nunggu teknisi listrik-nya Total sambil kedinginan ampe ketiduran yg akhirnya dateng juga dan janji buat dateng lagi minggu depan gara2 neon dan socket listrik nya jg harus diganti...duh, kok ga dibawa aja langsung sih pak, backupnya? kan deskripsinya udah cukup lengkap di formulir? Apa nanti2 saya foto aja? bapak..bapak..ada2 aja deh...

4. Ke Auchan..buat beli semua keperluan hari2an dlm ukuran maxi...uf, tp ternyata masih kelupaan gula..gini nih kalo jarang ngopi..ga otomatis mikirnya..

5. Cuci2 mata di "Marche de Noel" La Defense bareng ama Made n Rangga..rame banget karena kita btiga sibuk dengan komentar2 ga penting dan udik banget..:D..
Dan kios2nya dr berbagai negara gitu..secara lg ngebangun sarang, banyak banget yg dikecengin..uh..uh..uh...harus mulai dikira2 nih..
Yang ini, buat disudut ruang tamu..yang itu buat di meja makan..yang disitu buat kamar tidur, nah yg satunya lg buat kamar mandi..tapi, kok pada mahal yaaaa?

6. Ternyata jd menggila, ga puas ama Marche de Noel yg mulai pada tutup jam 8 malam, lingua a la Paris memutuskan untuk meneruskan soirée ini ke Champs Elysée..keputusan yg tepat banget, karena malam ini cerah..walopun tulisan 1 degC bisa terbaca diindikator temperatur..
Tapi niatan makan sehat terpaksa batal karena perut udah ga tahan lg melawan hawa dingin..soo, mcd lagi mcd lagi..hahaha...
Ternyata kita sama2 penggemar berat Champs Elysee dan lampu2nya..hmm, it seems like it's gonna be a regular thing to do...

7. Obok2 Virgin store, dan dengerin satu2 lagu dialbum baru Keane "Perfect Symmetry" dan akhirnya memutuskan kalo album ini masuk dalam "must have list"... ;-)
Oiya, nemuin satu lagu lagi yg bikin mellow, Lucky by Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat..kayanya lagu ini cocok buat neng mia and hubby..I really wish I can sing this song too in the near future, buk...ngareppp...:D

8. Dan akhirnya malam ini ditutup dengan Starbuck dan Chocolate Viennois Classic-nya (maaf, daku ga minum kopi..hehe) dan chocolate cookies (c'est evident que je suis une femme de chocolat, n'est-ce pas?hahaha..)

Tonight is a very good distraction for this busy little head of mine.....

amburadul..

2008-11-26T14:09:00.000+01:00

Can not think..all I do is just staring at the still screen...
Can not focus..all I do is just being very active with my clicking sound...
Miss my friends back home..but at this time they're probably preparing for bed...
Miss my ex who used to be my bestfriend, who I can talk to about almost anything..but prefer not..eventhough we're still friends and we're "neutral"...
Miss my mom and dad but as complicated as a family can be, I need her secret signal first before I can call...
Miss...

I feel amburadul today...

Keane in Paris.. Awesome...!

2008-11-21T00:25:00.000+01:00

I only knew one song from Keane..Everybody's Changing..only one song, but enough to make me come to their concert..Don't ask why..:-)..I love that song..I called it "drugging", a song that make me "high"..hahaha...

Concert is always a good break..hang out with friends, share a good mood and ambience..but never expected this one was gonna be so awesome..I got the chance to be "introduced" more of their songs, close and personal by the band..hmm..and very nicely performed too..

They're definitely a group of multitalented musicians..! And supported by professional backstage crews.. The lighting, the backdrop..excellent.. The music, the vocal..flawless.. Feels like listening to a record, spiced up a little bit by the passion of a concert.. And Tom..! With the new haircut and new image..hm, stunning...:-)

As the effect of the euphoria, now I'm writing this blog while listening to their songs that I'd come to enjoy during the show..Some of the songs from their previous albums (got to buy the latest one!)..Spiralling, We Might As Well Be Strangers, Crytal Ball, Bedshapped, Bend and Break, Is it Any Wonder..

But..I fell in love with this song..A Bad Dream...

I wake up, it's a bad dream
No one on my side, I was fighting
But I just feel too tired to be fighting
Guess I'm not the fighting kind
Wouldn't mind it if you were by my side
But you're long gone..yeah you're long gone now......

Where do we go?
I don't even know
My strange old face
And I'm thinking about those days
And I'm thinking about those days.....

PS: Thanks to Yasmin, Made and Rangga for the good time and laugh..So guys, "Muse" is for our next agenda?

Anti flu vaccination

2008-11-18T23:20:00.000+01:00

Jadi critanya di kantor tour coupole dapet 2 hari jatah buat suntik anti flu..yang pertama senen minggu lalu, dan yg kedua dan terakhir itu hari ini..Hampir aja kelupaan (gw banget deh!), kalo aja temen seruangan gw ga dengan tergopoh2 dateng kekantor (doi selalu dateng dgn tergopoh2 dengan mantel raksasanya..haha..) dan mulai ngomong2 ga jelas tentang vaksinasi ini, dan betapa pentingnya mengingat kita bakal menghadapi "the toughest period of winter"...dst dst..

So, gw cuma bisa membeo..dia print kuestioner sblm divaksin, gw juga ikutan...dia sekali lg dengan tergopoh2 jalan menuju lift untuk pergi kelantai dasar dimana klinik berada, gw jg cuma bisa ngekor...

Tapi dong..begitu nyampe pintu klinik, dia mempersilakan gw masuk duluan..."wah, standar banget nih lady's first", gw pikir...

Tp ternyata bukan itu yg dia bilang, malah : "Allez, jc..Tu es devant moi..J'ai peur de l'injection.."
WHAAT?! Daripada gw ngakak didepan dia dan nantinya jadi menghancurkan keharmonisan dalam ruangan kita, mendingan langsung masuk kedalem dan disuntik...hahaha...

Making promises vs keeping them..

2008-11-16T21:29:00.000+01:00

I'm best known as someone that is very difficult (or reluctant) to make a promise, rendez-vous etc..I tend to make promise when I'm almost 100% sure I can go, or at least really..really..wanna go..

Maybe some will say I have problems with commitment..probably I do..
But I always believe I'm afraid of commitment that is made half-heartedly..
I did made promises and commitments in my past before..and as long as I can remember, I tried to keep them..And even by the due time I realised I couldn't make it, I would inform the other person (or people) that I have to take a rain check..not too good, but at least I didn't stand them up..

And tonight, I got stood up by an old friend..I knew him..he couldn't care less of things like this..
I knew him..he's not at all an elephant that always remembers..He even once forgot wether he drove or rode his motor bike to the campus..

I couldn't care less if someone cancel an appointment..I wouldn't let something trivial ruin the rest of my day..I'd always found a way to entertain myself for a change..

But being stood up is just something I hate..yes..hate..
Because, after all the vexations slowly dissapearing, they transform to worries..which is worst..
Horrible pictures flash around my head, "did he get an accident?", "did he get robbed?", or worse.."did somebody murder him?"...it's a bit paranoia..I know..but I couldn't help it..anything is possible in this world and this time around..

So please..please..cancel all you like with me..but don't stand me up...

Vichy..

2008-11-10T21:15:00.000+01:00

Nah..sesuai janji..ini dia foto-foto yang berhasil gw capture selama tinggal di Vichy..

Not as detail and beautiful as those my mental camera has taken, but they're quite representative..;-)

Ini bebek yang miriiiip banget ama serutan kesayangan gw waktu SD di Minas..nyerutnya ga oke, tp serutan itu cakeeep banget..

Ini Maire's office..keren ya?

Pont de Bellerive di sore hari..hmm..sejuk..:-)

Pemandangan dari Pont de Bellerive..keliatan ga mercusuarnya? Everyday..I say again, everyday I look onto this lighthouse and think too myself.."what is she doing there in vanity..?"

The boulevard with Allier River on the left side and city park on the right side.

Can you imagine the sensation when I walk down it??

Udah lama banget pengen nonton film ini. Orang-orang bilang filmnya bagus, terbukti sih dengan 4 oscar yg didapet. Tapi barusan aja nih selese nontonnya...Idih, jc telat banget sih baru nonton sekarang..Bukannya dah lama banget tuh film..Hehe..Iya sih..kayanya dl tuh pergerakan massa buat nonton film ini, pemberitaan atas kesuksesannya bener-bener heboh..Tapi bukan jc namanya kalo langsung nurut ama yang namanya external drive. Entah kenapa, waktu itu emang ga pengen nonton aja..:-)

There's always perfect time for everything..Maybe not now..probably later..everything will happen in it's due time..if it's meant to happen :-)
Mungkin kalo sendainya gw maksain nonton waktu itu, ga bakal enjoy dan meresapi seperti hari ini..Ya ampyuun jc, berat banget sih mikirnya..Sebenernya ngga banget..ngga berat sama sekali. Prinsip ini applicable untuk semua aspek kehidupan..:-)..hihi..lagaknya..

Nah, sekarang mari kita bahas film ini yaa...

Pada dasarnya gw emang demen banget ama pemain utamanya..Ga ada pilihan artis yang lebih baik daripada Chow Yun Fat dan Michelle Yeoh. They're just a real life pro. Luv 'em..
The martial arts, the view, the plot of the movie..Astounding..

Dan sampai detik-detik terakhir film ini gw masih aja terkagum-kagum dengan cara Li Mu Bai (Fat) dan Yu Shu Lien (Yeoh) saling mencintai..So soft like a feather..So steady like a flow of a river..Yet it lasts..

I feel loved...

2008-10-28T23:53:00.000+01:00

Sampai saat ini gw masih ga ngerti..kenapa ada aja orang yang takut mengakui, bahwa sesekali kita ingin dicintai..sekuat apapun kita..setegar apapun kita..semandiri apapun kita..sepragmatis apapun kita..

Gw..gw ga takut untuk mengakui..gw kepingin banget dicintai..

Dan beberapa hari belakangan ini..gw bener2 merasa dicintai..

Gw merasa dicintai ketika diakhir email ato chat, temen2 gw nulis: "you'll be fine..take care there.."

*I guess I will..*

Gw merasa dicintai ketika ngeliat status YM my lil' bro: "Mba Jeci OL ga yah?"

*I'm right here, bro!*

Gw merasa dicintai ketika ngebaca email "my ex-lover" di perusahan deterjen: "I've been busy with my hubby and the bébé..but I miss you, bu..keep me updated on your news.."

*You don't know how much I miss you too, mi!*

Gw merasa dicintai ketika temen kursus di Vichy ngirim email yg isinya: "Jessie, sans toi dans la class, je suis triste!!"

*Tu me manque aussi, ah jin!*

Gw jg merasa dicintai ketika mama kirim sms: "Ci, bisa telepon mama ngga?"

*Ma, can't you fly here and hug me please..!*

I feel loved and blessed to have you all in my life...

The day I lost you...

2008-10-19T22:36:00.000+02:00

I still remember the days..when you were there, sitting in the corner..
waiting for me in silence..patiently
I still remember the days..when you were singing the songs I loved..
to cheer me up..willingly
I still remember the days..when you were playing the funky music..
to keep the groove alive..joyfully
I still remember the days..when we were so happy together

I ignored you every now and then..not because I don't need you
I ignored you every now and then..not because I have the new one
I neglected you every now and then..not because he's better than you
I neglected you every now and then..my mistake

And where are you now when I need you, mp3 player-ku...?

PS: I don't like that iPod anyway..so would you please come back to me...

Love stories are like journeys by train...

2008-10-10T23:19:00.000+02:00

Tadi pagi, guru pagi (soalnya gw punya 4 guru disini) yang namanya Régine Lallement, yg suka banget ama antropologi dan art, ngenalin kita semua dengan "slam poetry". Ini nih definisi berdasarkan mas wiki: "A poetry slam is a competition at which poets read or recite original work (or, more rarely, that of others). These performances are then judged on a numeric scale by previously selected members of the audience."

Dan slam poet yg lg jadi hot babe di seluruh penjuru negeri Perancis itu namanya Grand Corps Malade (Big Sick Body) ato GCM. Doi nambahin musik ke dalam slam poetry yang rada kaku, dan menghasilkan musik dengan genre slam (kaya a cappella ato rap gitu). Nama aseli doi Fabien Marsaud, kemudian memilih nama komersil GCM yg menggambarkan kondisi fisik doi yg sempet divonis ga akan pernah bisa jalan lagi..Thanks God he's a battante, meaning a fighter, he's still standing strong and high..Jadinya kita masih bisa nikmatin karyanya...;)

I love his work..maybe others will too...

Gw kutip sepenggal lirik dari lagunya "Les voyages en train" ato "Journeys by train", soalnya witty banget....

C'est vrai que les histoires d'amour c'est comme les voyages en train
Et quand je vois tous ces voyageurs, parfois j'aimerais en être un
Pourquoi tu crois que tant de gens attendent sur le quai de la gare?
Pourquoi tu crois qu'on flippe autant d'arriver en retard ?

Pour beaucoup la vie se résume à essayer de monter dans le train
A connaitre ce qu'est l'amour et se découvrir plein d'entrain
Pour beaucoup l'objectif est d'arriver à la bonne heure
Pour réussir son voyage et avoir accès au bonheur

So you see that love stories are like journeys by train,
And sometimes when I see those travellers I’d like to be one again,
Why do you think so many people wait at the platform gate?
Why do you think we stress so much when we arrive a little late?

For some life is all about trying to catch a train,
To feel love and find their energy bubbling up like champagne,
For others the aim is to arrive with time to spare,
To have a safe trip and live life without care.

Weekend pertama di Vichy

2008-10-07T23:27:00.000+02:00

another crazy days yang bener-bener gw banget..diawali dengan kamar yang dilantai 5 ga bisa dipake internet-an karena sinyalnya terlalu lemah..dengan alasan tertentu, hotel ini cuma ada wi fi di lantai 4 dan 6. walhasil, dengan alasan gw butuh internet buat kerja (rada exaggerate..) gw minta pindah kelantai 4.

tapi ternyata gw ga bangun cukup pagi..jadi acara bebenah membuat gw telat ke kampus..idih, ngapain kekampus hari sabtu..? soalnyaaa, ada trip keliling-keliling Vichy dan sekitarnya, yg biayanya 40euro..so, i ran and ran and ran..tinggal 10m lagi nih dr bus..ah ciao jc..we're taking off...aaarrghh....bener-bener kaya salah satu scene "Ramadhan dan Ramona", kalo ada yang inget filmnya Lidya Kandou n Jamal Mirdad...:D

untung 40 euro dibayarin ama kumpeni..kalo aja...fiuh..that was close...close from losing some money..but you are so losing the trip, jc...aaarrgghhhhh.....

so, jadilah hari sabtu diabisin dengan bales dendam maen internet..hehe..berlanjut ampe minggu siang..shoot..peer belom dikerjain..padahal udah janji (ama temen-temen n diri sendiri) to have a little tour around this city and take some pictures...so...peer ato jalan-jalan dl ya..hmmm....

okeh..let's mix study with pleasure..dan ternyata manjur jg..kalimat-kalimat yg berhari-hari nyangkut dikepala ngalir begitu aja menjadi sebuah artikel waktu gw duduk manis dipinggir sungai Allier..dingin sih..tp rasanya seneng hari itu "rada" produktif..

but wait, gerimis..ah, shoot..jadi sia-sia deh bawa kamera..mana berat..gapapa, ayo kita jalan-jalan ke rue clemenceau, katanya disana pusat perbelanjaan..eh bener aja masih rame..tp ini kan rada ngelawan arus..? biasanya hampir diseluru penjuru negeri perancis, semua toko pada tutup di hari minggu..a day for family, so they say..setelah ditanyain ke guru-guru disini, ternyata emang Vichy punya pengecualian utk hal ini..ini salah satu tourist attraction, in fact..hmm..menarik..:-)...my little discovery..

this little adventure dilanjutin dengan rue de paris, nah yg ini isinya restoran melulu..french, chinese, thai, maroc, turki...hmmm...tempting..tp ga ada rm padang ya? :-(

yang antik tuh pas jalan di avenue des celestins..ada orang nanya arah..yah, dek..mbak ini jg pendatang baru..turis..kok nanya..yo wis ceriwis..gw kasiin aja deh peta yang ada ditangan..karena avenue des celestins bakal berakhir di kampus..ga bakal nyasar lah..

lho..tiba-tiba aja sibule jd cas cis cus ga jelas..hm...bentar..bentar..is he hitting on me...????

wuaduh..gazwat..dari gw ngomong perancis rada mending, gw pura-pura bego aja sambil bilang:"non, merci..au revoir..."

fiuh, gw berasa jd anak sekolahan yg hampir diangkut om-om...terhina...halaaaah..exaggerate lagi deh..:D

Ied Mubarak 1429 H

2008-10-02T13:56:00.000+02:00

Selamat Hari Raya Idul Fitri 1429 H

Mohon Maaf Lahir dan Bathin

Lebaran tahun ini agak berbeda dibandingin lebaran tahun-tahun sebelumnya. Bukan tahun pertama lebaran tanpa keluarga sih, karena udah pernah kejadian tahun 2003 di Balikpapan.

Lebaran kali ini, sendirian di Vichy. Kota kecil yang secara posisi bener-bener di tengah Perancis. Untungnya ada mesjid ngga jauh dari kampus. Jadi pagi-pagi disempet-sempetin buat sholat Ied.

Walo ceramahnya dalam bahasa Perancis, at least ada pesan moral yang ketangkep, dan rada kocak juga. "On doit recharger la batterie..Batterie de quoi? De voiture? Non, battery de coeur..". Ternyata cara ustadz-nya ceramah di Indo ama sini sama aja..hehe..cuma beda bahasa..

Dan komunitasnya cukup banyak, karena mesjid penuh banget. Dan dari beberapa negara berbeda. Touching!

Yang lebih bikin terharu lagi tuh pas salam-salaman sesudah sholat..Hampir semua yang cipika-cipiki tau kalo gw ga tinggal disini tapi lagi belajar, mungkin karena ngeliat penampilan gw yang simple banget untuk hari raya. Dan ibu-ibu itu bilang "Bon chance..!" sambil ngelus-ngelus lengan gw...Huhuhu..jadi cedih...

But I love this Ied.. :-)

Antara Bellerive-sur-Ailler dan Vichy

2008-10-02T13:17:00.000+02:00

Kaya judul lagu ya?:-)..Tapi begitulah gambaran singkat tentang hari-hari gw di sini..Kursus di Vichy, tapi tinggal di studio yang letaknya di Bellerive-sur-Allier..Yup, mereka tuh dua kota kecil yang berbeda yang dipisahin ama sungai Allier ..Tapi yang menarik, perjalanan yang harus gw tempuh cuma 15-20 menit jalan kaki...

Dan tiap pagi dan sore, pas pergi ke dan pulang dari kampus, gw harus nyebrangin jembatan dengan view yang..yang..oke banget..Breathtaking I can say..Tamannya, pohon-pohonnya, bebek-bebeknya yang ngingetin gw ama serutan pensil waktu masih SD....:-)

Luv it here...

Lirih...

2008-10-01T17:59:00.000+02:00

Chrisye emang maestro Indonesia..
Kayanya lagu biasa bisa jadi luar biasa kalo dibawain ama om yang satu ini..
Luv him..luv him..luv him..
I sing this song for you, Om...

"Kini tlah kusadari..dirimu tlah jauh dari sisi
Kutau tak mungkin kembali kuraih
Semua hanya mimpi

Ingin ku coba lagi..mengulang yang telah terjadi
Tetapi semua sudah tak berarti
Kau telah pergi

Adakah kau mengerti kasih..rindu hati ini..tanpa kau disisi
Mungkinkah kau percaya kasih
Bahwa diri ini ingin memiliki lagi

Kusadari kembali..ternyata semua khayal diri
Kini kutau tak mungkin ada waktu
Untuk mencintaimu lagi

Mungkinkah kau percaya kasih
Bahwa diri ini ingin memiliki lagi
Mungkinkah kau percaya kasih
Bahwa diri ini ingin memiliki lagi…"

What's next..

2008-09-29T17:50:00.000+02:00

Few days ago..well, a week ago to be exact..a friend asked..
"what's the reason behind a girl named jc still single until today?"

Honestly, he's not the first to ask exactly the same question...
And getting better and better in answering the question, I said, "I haven't found what I'm looking for.."

But here comes other questions...
What's next? I said..Jatuh cinta lagi..

When? With which type?

Hm..never really thought of that before...So, the topic fade away to no importance..

But I found the answer when I played a song by Maliq n D’Essenstials...somehow it clicked..

When and with whom? When I can sing heartily this song..exactly this song...

" Dia seperti apa yang selalu kunantikan..aku inginkan
Dia melihatku apa adanya seakan kusempurna

Tanpa buah kata kau curi hatiku
Dia tunjukkan dengan tulus cintanya
Terasa berbeda saat bersamanya
Aku jatuh cinta..

Dia bukakan pintu hatiku yang lama tak bisa percayakan cinta
Hingga dia disini memberi cintaku harapan..."

Thanks to Maliq n D’Essenstials for a beautiful poet...

Stop..!

2008-09-24T17:17:00.000+02:00

You just walk in, I make you smile
It's cool but you don't even know it
You take an inch, I run a mile
Can't win you're always right behind me

And we know that you could go and find some other
Take or leave it or just don't even bother
Caught in a craze, it's just a phase
Or will this be around forever

Don't you know it's going too fast
Racing so hard you know it won't last
Don't you know, why can't you see

Slow it down, read the sign, so you know just where you are going
Stop right now
Thank you very much I need somebody with a human touch
Hey you always on the run
Gotta slow it down baby, gotta have some fun

And we know that you could go and find some other
Take or leave it cause we've always got each other
You know who you are and yes, you're gonna breakdown
You're crossed the line so you're gonna have to turn around

Don't you know it's going too fast
Racing so hard you know it won't last
Don't you know, why can't you see
Slow it down, read the sign, so you know just where you are going

Gotta keep it down honey lay your back on the line
Cause I don't care about the money, don't be wasting my time
You need less speed, get off my case
You gotta slow it down baby, just get out of my face

Stop right now, I wanna thank you, I wanna thank you
Stop right now, thank you very much, thank you very much

2008-09-19T21:31:00.000+02:00

sekarang gilirannya Pau yg harus dikomentarin...ini udah hari keenam, ga kerasa aja nih..
5 hari trening berbahasa perancis dengan temen2 dan instruktur yg kayanya ada masalah ama bahasa inggris..hehe...

walhasil: trening sambil manggut2 biar instruktur ga stres liat gw yg ngantuk dan oon berat...makan siang (sorry, girl's thing..) sambil ga ada yg ngajak ngomong...gw yakin karena bahasa inggris mereka pasti ancur banget...dan mereka ga mau ngajak ngomong bahasa perancis, karena mesti perancis gw yg ancur..hehehe...

yg lebih sedih lagi, ga dapet akses internet euuuuyyy...masa workstation dipake berdua, dah gitu loginnya pake yg punya partner gw...yah, jadi deh...tiap kali nongkrongin rumah temen2 indo yg lg ada di sini, satu hal yg harus dilakukan adalah ngecek email..hehehe...

à paris

2008-09-12T17:45:00.000+02:00

udah 3 hari nih di Paris..ternyata gitu2 aja..hehe..
ya iyalah ya..emang maunya gimana juga.. :P

tapi pernah ga sih ngalamin yg namanya deg-degan berat, bukan karena love attraction loh ya..
tp deg2an karena anticipation thdp sst yg pada akhirnya ternyata it's not even bigger or worse dr yg kita bayangkan..

tp bukan berarti anticipation yg kita lakukan sia2 juga..o ngga banget..
karena anticipation ini td yg ngebuat kita lbh siap ama apapun yg mungkin aja come our way...
