Married & Expecting

Hi there, It's been awhile since the last time I wrote. I am now finally a Mrs. Never thought that after getting married, life gets even better. I never thought I could be this happy. It's like a dream :) Waking up everyday feeling grateful. Also, we are pregnant!!! With a little, acrobatic, baby boy (the last time we checked). I am currently learning new things day by day. The new kind of happiness The first time we got that two stripes, it was indescribable. Also the happy tears every time we peek our little swimmer through USG :') The dramatic change with my body My oh my, I never thought I could constantly feel like a balloon that is about to burst. The magical world of weird food I drink boiled water of  mung bean daily... (And I was so surprised how essential it is to pregnancy, beyond its common belief to encourage beautiful, thick hair growth for the baby) The surprising pain              and the nausea ... :'( ...

After all this time.. Still

We have been together for 4 years But I am still surprised to discover new versions of him each day.. Today he had shown how bad he could express his anger. I was honestly really scared, but at the same time I felt like I wanted to protect him. He was so strong, but so hurt at the same time. I had never felt the sudden urge to hold & to comfort. "I am sorry.. All is well. We are alright.." Yet today he had also shown me how deeply he could love. I admit I have this problem sometimes to blur out... Feeling like people would understand my complicated stories; feeling like my brain is running faster than my ability to restructure words. Rangga tho' very patiently tried to untangle my words, defining it into correct, understandable sentences. I called him rude out of my defense. Then he said, "I want to teach you how to communicate correctly, clearly.. Because I spend my days with you. And after that (after the wedding), I will be with you every...

The Stressed & Disencouraged

Feeling the urge to jot this down.. Dear fellow bride-to-be, What could be more worrisome than wedding planning is to actually see how you & your partner could collaborate as a team. Because it may not be as what you expected. There might be a lot of monologue; You may feel so alone. It may make you feel frustrated and dis-encouraged. But hang in there & keep wishing for miracle. :) Whatever it may turn out; It would be for the best. It would clarify things. Whether strengthen the bond or make you grow patience.

Project FINALLY

Hi there! It's been a while  :) Just want to pour my thoughts & feelings for a while. Rangga and I are having this Project FINALLY. Yes, we are preparing for our big day! After 4 years of laughter, happiness, tears & quarrels..  FINALLY!  Anyway, it is still in Jul 2017 But I am so excited! Decided not to get help from WO, we are planning it ourselves. Every weekend, starting next week, will be filled with surveying vendors, taking photos, buying stuffs. Sounds exciting, tho' I know it would be exhausting as well. When did he pop the question? As far as I can remember, we have been talking about getting married since we entered our 2nd year of relationship. Never in serious manners tho'. Alhamdulillah this year we finally  had family meet up (last Jul 2016).. We talked about it for real . So, I would honestly admit that there was no 'will you marry me' on bended knee (in fact, he never asked me t...

One of The Most Important Decision

So many things happened in life recently. I have just lost a grandpa.. A person whose stories I will forever miss. A person who could make people feel so much. I am so lucky to be able to be beside him through his last moments. How can I describe it? My grandpa passed away peacefully. He was healthy, just went to doctor for a check up, when he found out that his heart was running only with 40% function. He then got hospitalized for a week. His heart was weak, which inevitably impacted his lungs; But he was still able to talk & do things normally. Just needed to stay in bed. I spent my weekend with him. I scooped him some mashed banana, so it would be easier for him to swallow medicine. I helped him with his cough.. I have never imagined I would see him not-energized.. My grandpa, a war hero... He was a very active man. Even after turning 88 yo, he still spent the weekend visiting his children/grandchildren. What really touched me was that: even in his last m...

Yesterday & Today

This is a story about how easily you can make someone feel differently about you... Yesterday. I went to the zoo with my colleagues. Revisiting the joy of my childhood, giggling while feeding the deers. I was so happy and anxious at the same time. One part of me wanted to spend longer time; Another wanted to go home. It was his day. The day he turned 28. I had not met and greeted him in person. I planned to go back at 5pm, but it was hard to find cab. Ending up reaching office at 8pm and cancelling our dinner. But he was kind enough to wait. Fortunately, he had some works to get done. We spent the rest of the evening together; eating at our fav humble place, sharing hugs and laughter. I was so grateful of the simplest, purest love we had. He said he was happy that he could spend his birthday with me. Little did he know, I was the happiest human to hear that. Today. We started the day awfully. He asked me whether he could have his gift exchanged. The new be...

Time Flies

Hi ya! It's been 5 years since the last time I wrote. My last post were all about working my ass up during internship. Good news that I have graduated & found a job that I love! I have been working in a media agency as a connection planner. Currently trying to graduate once again (this time master's degree). I will take a one-month-unpaid-leave to finish my senior thesis. Starting 28th of Mar... *fingers-crossed* To sum up: Life has been different I spend most of my time at the office, most of my nights at the campus & most of the weekend overwhelmed by so many things to catch up. I have been committed in a very happy relationship.. I think this time is for real (read: I can see him as my future husband & we plan to get married next year. Amin). My mum & dad are healthy.. But, I meet my little sister couple of times a year. She stays in Jogja to finish her study. I earn fine.. Allowing me to travel to new places, at least once a year. An...

La Solitude -- An Assignment for Advertising Creative Planning Class (character)

O Cory, O Tory I shall tell a story About a man who loves glory Glory he thinks comes from himself conclusory Remember the tale of Narcissus The  lad fell into the lake full of hocus pocus Staring at his own reflection as flawless as hibiscus Forever he may think he is a basilicus Perfect he thinks of his life The thought had become a pocketknife Which sent him quickly to the afterlife ----0000---- Sir Phil-O-Sophy is a honorable senior lecturer He spends his day teaching and walking from corridor to corridor Wearing shirt and trousers; leading his apprentices to the holly altar of science Books, scrolls, quills and spectacles every pupils must have Old documents to be read; Science within to be caught Sir Phil-O-Sophy has every apprentices' respect He is aware of it and he deserves it Until one day he stares at his reflection in the mirror "I am old and I am wise I know a lot of things people do not I have everything a man wish to have Apprentices who f...

Love is ...

Found this poem I wrote a long time ago Hmm not bad... "   Love is being warm in the middle of the rain   Love is smiling even when you're in pain   Love is hands holding like a chain Love is Love is dancing on the moonlight floor   Love is enough but you want more   Love is a heart burning in the core Love is   "   Sleep tight, Love

Goodbye, Barcelona!

One of my lecturer played this video in one of my class But I didn't really pay attention.. I was browsing through some videos when I found this again. I watched it and I realized that it's really beautiful. I'd love to share it to you. Precious! I love the song so much!!!!

Complain Complain Complain... and Get Better!

Hiyaa Long time not posting anything in this blog.. I tell you something. I find something precious this holiday... A CONSCIOUSNESS. Yes, I think I'm in the process of reaching self-actualization. I consume news and stuffs though they break my heart everyday. I have politics and social issues (sometimes environmental) for dinner. So grateful to be born in a family who care about life... I have this high-school teenager sister who is in her puberty age and it helps me becoming mature :) Here's the thing. I recently had this conversation with a friend in twitter.. Not really a conversation, actually, she kept saying contradicting things and she turned angry in the end. I wrote something about Mr. President and Mr. Minister of Communication & Information. "I wonder how can a president make an music album? And how can a minister reply tweets all the time? Don't they have lots of tasks to do?"  This friend of mine suddenly replied, "Everyo...

Inception

Last Tuesday I watched Inception with my boyfriend It's ubercool!!!! :) Just like any other Mr. Dicaprio's movie. Amazing plot, smart dialogue, mind-twisting... I couldn't even blink! And all the stars that play in the movie. I watched without guilt Cause while my boyfriend couldn't breathe staring at Miss Marion Cotillard  elle est une tres belle actrice I was drooling over Leonardo Dicaprio and Joshep Gordon-Levitt *hawt* They are gorgeous!!! My fave scene is when Cobb (Leo) take Ariadne (Ellen Page) for a walk and it's actually in a dream and Ariadne creates all the things... the buildings, the roads... Everything keeps appearing and disappearing. Amazing! The ending is just indescribable.. Just watch it, You won't regret!

It is plastic, it's fantastic!

Here's what I plan to own before I get 20.... I'll start making financial notes and plan and start saving l'argent !!! Still wishing someone would buy me,

"IHH ANAK PEREMPUAN KOK SEPATUNYA KOTOR GITU" *BAM* It hits me on the face! Daddy, you really care about me. You pay attention to every tiny things about your daughters. I love you!  I promise I'll wash up soon

To-Do List ... Before I Get 20 :)

Being 20 is something really special. An official grown-up.. To face all that I must get prepared. Living in a healthy and proper way is not easy.. It takes steps. So, Here are the things that must be done (regularly-ever-since) "Before I Get 20" 1. Pray (Shalat) 5 times a day     It's time for me to do what every Muslim must do. 2. Wash & Iron my own clothes     Mum refuses to hire a house-keeper or whatsoever     that she does all the housework stuffs together with daddy.     As the 1st born child, I think it's my time to help them.     At least, not bothering them with all the mess I've made. 3. Wake up early in the morning     Well, I'm a night runner.. and that should stop now.     I must not sleep late so I can wake up early. "Life is a race, if you don't run fast, someone will beat you and move faster than you"  - Dr. Viru Shastrabhuddi ( '3 Idiots'...

Greetings from Pulau Tidung - Day 2

*reading the earlier post is highly recommended http://jemappelleshasa.blogspot.com/2010/04/greetings-from-tidung-islands-day-1.html * Allo Here's my 2nd post of Pulau Tidung Trip. As I promised you... Enjoy! Day 2 was awesome! It was snorkeling day!!! Woo-yeah Well, the team woke up at 6 and we sailed at 7. We were about to visit 5 islands then headed back to Jakarta. It was behind schedule... So we skipped Tidung Kecil. We took pics first before checking out the homestay. The owner of this LOSMEN LIMA SAUDARA is Pak Haji Mid. He had been really mysterious before we met him. We talked about him a lot... and he turned out to be a nice wise old man. Arif even made him a song "Pak Mid makan sabun.. Pak mid makan sabun" :p We love you Pak Mid!!!  ♥ We sailed by a little rocking boat. It was windy so I did play with the wind. Yodsa took some pics of me... with my bushy hair And here's what we expected... Sea with shallow coral floor!!! Look at ...
