Australia always has a special place in my heart.

27th June 2021

To the awasome nephew who came to our family bringing us so much joy for the past two years, Happy Birthday! - 27.06.19 -

To the beautiful niece who came to our family bringing us so much happiness for the past twelve months, Happy Birthday! - 25.06.20 -

Family. Not full squad but still grateful that we are healthy

So, just had a simple family lunch to celebrate these two duo cilik birthday. Celebrate it at Rasa Seafood, Cemara. It's kind like our family favourite place to have a lunch or dinner. Dulu, when i was in primary school, setiap sabtu kita bakalan had our dinner di Marco, Cemara. Banyak kenangan indah yang masih tersimpan walaupun hanya simple dinner on saturday night. and I'm so grateful, now, we still can have that routine although not as often as past. sekarang kita banyakan di Rasa Seafood. FYI, Rasa Seafood and Marco is actually the same one. Kakak beradik yang buka. and of course we always got a special discount at both Marco or Rasa :P The owners are my parent's old friend.

My nephew and niece have thought me a lot of things. I'm so grateful for them. Ada hari dimana i was so stressful with my work, but came home to them just simply rising up my mood. Ada hari dimana i was so anxiety and worrying about something, but just heard Darren calling me Xiao Yi and looked at him doing cutie things, never fail to make me laugh and lighten my burden. These two cutie pie yang buat mama and papa feel to be young parent again. Thank you for coming to our family my dearest nephew and niece. i love you both so muchhhhhh.

WHAT GOES AROUND, COMES BACK AROUND

We live happily now. To the fullest. Don't even bother of what she's done and how she treated us back then. She did such a horrible thing. But what matter the most is we are all good now. Eventually it's a past. But appearantly, karma has no deadline. Mr. Karma come to her family now. I'm not sure that is as hurt as we felt, but i'm okay. 

I'm not such a good human being. To be honest, I take a little pleasure.

Someone said 

Nothing's wrong being good to other. In fact, now i've seen being good to others mean being good to yourself. Karma does exist. What goes around, comes back around.

Well, couldn't be more agreeable than this.

PROMISE OF FOREVER

I know this kind of things can happen

Tapi ketika melihat bukti nyata orang yang mengalaminya, i am still amazed.

Foto di bagian kiri adalah orang" di masa kini. Kiri atas ada Adam Shulman dan kiri bawah adalah istrinya Anne Hathaway.

Foto di bagian kanan atas adalah William Shakespeare dan kanan bawah adalah istri William yg bernama Anne Hathaway.

Do you think that Adam Shulman look like William Shakespeare? I thought yes. And both their wife has the same name pada zamannya masing", i thought it's a sign.

Dan yang lebih membuat gue yakin kalo pasangan Adam Shulman dan Anne Hathway adalah reinkarnasi dari William and Anne adalah William shakespeare adalah pujangga pada zamannya dan dia pernah menulis ini buat istrinya...

 "Life is too short to love you in one. I promise to look for you in the next life"

"Hidup terlalu singkat untuk hanya mencintaimu pada satu kehidupan. Saya berjanji akan mencarimu pada kehidupan yang selanjutnya lagi"

A promise of forever ❤

Anton's Birthday

Sunday,  25th April 2021

Me and Sierra
Pic before i go

So, hari ini Anton treat us at Paradise Dynasty Centre Point. 

And we want to surprise him.  

Ud nitipin cake ke waitress buat nanti di keluarin pas kita makan

Butt,  sampe uda makan siap cake belum di keluarin

Bahkan tmn gue ud pura" ke toilet dan bilang sama waitressnya utk cpt keluarin

Dan belum keluarin jga

Sampe si Anton uda pgi bayar di kasir, gue cpt" manggil waitressnya utk siapin cake dan keluarin pas dia duduk balek sblum kita out

And we waited for 15-20 minutes i guess

Belum juga di keluarin

Sumpah... Pelayanan terparah yang pernah ada.... Kecewa sama paradise and won't celebrate birthday at there again. NEVER! 

Akhirnya kita ambe balek cakenya and you know what yg paling parahnya... Waitressnya gak bilang sorry or anything. Ud itu mau ambil cake balik pun hrus tunggu. Seriously, paradise dynasty yang lumayan terkenal di Medan punya pelayanan segitu buruknya. Gk nyangka sih... Lumayan sering makan di sana dan overall sbnrnya makanan enak tpi gk prnh nyangka bakalan ngalamin ini pas mau ngerayain birthday..  Sebel and kesell bangettttt 

Terakhir kita jalan ke Manhattan Time Square

Akhirnya kita rayainnya di Nelayan.  Not surprise anymore, but at least we still got to celebrate it

And pelayanan Nelayan gk pernah mengecewakan.

Just a little story to share and some pictures to show below

 

FAIRY TALE

Look at them

If u are still wonder true love does exist or not

Salute to Prince Phillip. You have my respect Sir. 

May u rest in peace

 

I WISH I CAN UNDERSTAND THAI

I am officially become a big fan of Thai Movie, Thai drama or whatever. 

Am very interested in thai couple this lately. 

The first is Nadech and Urassaya. They are so lovely 😍. Had been friends since 2009. And we don't know when they are official courting but i thought they are finally publish their relationship around 2017? I don't believe Nadech need this long time to start a relationship with Yaya.  I hope he does not PHP-in Yaya for too long. But it's ok since they are so open about their realationship now and both of them seems madly in love with each other Hahaha. 

Btw,  Nadech did a very spectacular thing on this last valentine's day. He rented some billboards to say Happy Valentine's day to Yaya. . Omgg..  He make other guys seems so small hahahaha. Lucky Yaya.  

The second is mik thongraya and bow maylada. Not really a big fan of them. but seems i like mik a lot like he is very handsome wkwkwk. The first time i saw him was when i watched unwilling bride and ulalala, is this called like at first sight? hahahaha. He is really kinda my type. Then, this pic showed up on my instagram explore. Apparently, that is his girlfriend. Handsome and Beautiful = perfect.

The third is Nine and Baifern. Well, they are not a couple actually. But their chemistry is daebakk. Have you watched their movie "Friendzone". Watch it and you'll know why i say their chemistry is very very veryy goooodd. Maybe one day, they can be a couple since they are both single now. Who knows? I hope so and i know there are maybe thousands people hoping the same as me. :P

 

TO YOU A DREAMER

To you,  a dreamer out there. Here is some words for you.  It always help me to feel better. To keep believing. That someday, is gonna happen soon. 

Just because it's taking time,  doesn't mean it's not happening. 

As much as there is uncertainty on your path, there is also hope in your heart guiding you as you walk. 

Please believe,  there is still time for you to be all that you want to be

You are brave for choosing to keep going... 

Keep going even though it's taking longer than expected. 

What if everything you are going through,  is preparing you for what you asked for

Maybe, just maybe. My someday is almost here. 

UPDATE OF MYSELF

 - lagi berusaha ngumpulin niat buat belajar skripsi -

My sempro schedule is up and it will be on saturday 27th March 2021.

It's easy to memorise all the chapter 1 to 3. Tapi yang susah itu ngumpulin niat buat pelajari bab 1 - 3 nya.  Really not in mood of studying recently. 

Deep Thought

Karena seperti Ann, kita pun akan di hadapkan pada pilihan :

Menunggu kepastian dari orang yang kita cintai atau menerima orang yang telah memberikan kita kepastian. 

The Architecture of Love

Cinta terlalu penting untuk di serahkan pada takdir

It means,  you should pursue your happiness.  Kejar orang yang u suka and sayang.  Jangan hanya tungguin dia buat ngungkapin perasaannya ke you. It's ok for you to tell him what you feel although you are a girl. Kalau suka ya bilang aja.  Dari pada pendam sendiri. Lebih baik ngungkapin perasaan kita dan tau feedbacknya.  Jadi setidaknya kita tau tetap harus berharap pada orang itu atau membuka hati untuk orang lain. I'm so damn agree with this.  Karena selama kita masih punya rasa sama this man, kita gak akan bisa membuka hati kita for another man. But sometimes, melakukan hal tsb tidak semudah menyarankan orang lain utk melakukannya. Wkwkwk.. Dan karena itu,  let's us just read another statement below

Cinta memang terlalu penting untuk di serahkan pada takdir,  tapi segigih apapun kita memperjuangkannya,  tidak ada yang bisa melawan takdir

Another things that Ika write and make me think

Di sayang itu menyenangkan loh. Dan hari ini River tahu,  diingat oleh seseorang yang disayangi itu juga menyenangkan.  

03.03.21

Just wanna say to him,  to her,  to everybody

Thank you for appreciating me this much.

I'm grateful beyond words. 

Bersyukur banget dimanapun gue kerja,  i think gue selalu di hargai banget. And i am really really really grateful. To people out there,  yang lagi kerja,  just do your best.  Selama kamu jujur, bekerja keras dan selalu melakukan yang terbaik yang kamu bisa.  Believe me,  people will know ur quality and appreciate ur effort. 

God bless me, u and us

STAYCATION

Saturday,  16th January 2021

Hari ini kita rencanain mau staycation

Because of covid yang buat kita gk bisa liburan ke negara orang,  so the idea of staycation come up

Kita book di Kama Hotel.  

Luckily,  It's in the city area with affordable price. Cuma IDR 480.000/Night

So,  Jenjen, Henhen and I berangkat jam 3 buat check in di hotel.  Teddy and Anton baru bisa nyusul jam 5 sore sehabis pulang kerja. 

So,  here is us.  Baru nyampe

Honestly,  hotelnya super duper comfortable.

only 450k, dapat hotel begitu,  we are really lucky. 

Kita pesan yang utk 4 orang.  Jdi ada 2 tempat tidur ukuran queen size,  kamar mndi dalam yg cukup luas, and showery tools. 

Pas nyampe, kita semua ud keburu lapar.  Jadinya pesan jinjja chicken and loklok

Kimbap and chicken 133k
Loklok 56k
And those food are really delicious

Finally,  Anyon and Teddy are arrived! 
Ini di ambe pas Henhen lgi di kamar mandi

Full Squad

Jadi semua lengkap. Kita rencana beli makan di luar trus bawa ke hotel utk makan

Foods

Telur gulung 20k

Spaghetti sushi 64k

Daizhu (2) 50k

Pemuda 30k

Perak 50k

Mpekmpek 38k

Aqua 7k

Night view from our hotel
Gk terlalu bagus sih,  secara hotelnya cuma ruko yg di jadiin hotel
Jdi view nya ya ruko" sebelah
Wkwkwkwk
But what important is it's comfortable place to stay

Sambil tunggu orang Jenjen yang di indomaret, 
I ask Teddy to take a pic of me
And it turns out very good
Looks like i'm travel somewhere
Well,  i am just being a tourist in my own city

Setelah makan" sampe kenyang bego

Sekitar jam 10 malam, kita keluar dri hotel

Pas di depan hotelnya tuh angkringan ( tmpt makan yg customerny semua duduk di lantai makan )

Kita gk makan sih,  cause most of the people there are muslims.  I bet we are the only chinese out there.  No offense,  i am not racism,  but it's uncomfortable since there are so many pleople like hundreds really. And all of them are not wearing mask. 

jadinya habis jalan" di sepanjang jalan,  kita balik ke hotel lagi buat tidur. 

Kita rencana besoknya bakalan lari pagi di Merdeka Walk

But hey,  ada kejadian lucu jam 3 pagi. 

So,  jam 3 gue bangun utk ke toilet

Pas keluar toilet,  gue liat Teddy juga bangun. 

Dia pindah tidur di lantai karena tmpt dia tidur dingin. ( AC langsung ke arah dia) 

Kalo Henhen emang kebangun terus.  Dia gk bisa tidur sepanjang malam

Trus gk lama kemudian Anton bangun Mau ke toilet,  Tapi pas jalan ke toilet dia jatuh..  Kedebukkkk

Alhasill semua kebangunn and bukannya malah nolongin kita malah ketawa gk berhenti

Someone says " i will help my bestfriend If he's falling down.  But after i finish laughing

Well,  i think it happens in real HAHAHA
