"The men we marry have great gifts and great flaws, but yhey are the men we chose"

- Rose Kennedy, the Kennedys series

Marriage means you will learn about being ikhlas,about consequence. Also that this earth has been men's earth for millions of years and it will continue to be; but that's another story.

I got married to a wonderful man last April, Yose Moriza Iskandar. The same man i fell in love with 4 years ago. Since then, "what a marriage is like?" is an FAQ to me. I will try addressing to that in this blog. I'm no counselor just a girl sharing her thoughts.

sweet surprise

Bumped into an unexpected certain someone a while ago, made me miss my old blogging ways..

:)


How are you folks?

hiya there!

Me just got back from Bali! for the national Sales conference.. not holiday, sadly.. but it was enjoyable nevertheless!



The conference was held in intercontinental but we stayed at Melia nusaDua. we were supposed to stay at intercon too but the f-ing bombing made us delay this conference, we were supposed to go 2 weeks ago, and now there were no room for the date. anyways, intercon was gorgeous! as always.. we get to hang out by the pool and beach between meetings. we also had an awesome dinner by the beach and.. at GWK! no, not at the restaurant but inside the park, between those cliffs in front of the huge bird statue! We had a stage and fireworks, sexy dancers, great food, and a bit if stuntshow.


also one of the perks of working at a multinat'l beauty company is that you get to get drunk for free once a year at the company's expense. Especially with a boss like mine who thinks martini isn't so much different with a glass of juice. well, you get the picture. :D


Yesterday morning my friends and I went to this little bit of beach called Bluepoint near Dreamland and it was pretty. We had to go down a cliff to get there and we were practically the only ppl in the beach because everyone else were surfers and went straight to the ocean.


* i tried uploading the pics but failed. oh well.

God bless us

It's been a while since my parents started asking about me & abang's plan of settling down together. The level of curiosity had elevated from curiosity to persuasion and recently, terrorism.

I wanted to give him a head's up about this but before i got the chance to do so this afternoon my parents asked straight forwardly to him. LOL.

Our responses was COMPLETELY different. I could only sat there, head bowed down, embarrassed to the core and restraining myself from crawling under the table.

Whilst, Abang handled it verry well. Gracefully, even. He explained to them where our relationship is now, his concerns, our priorities, the plans we've discussed, and they all make sense.

Ah, thank God I'm not dating guys my own age..

posesif.

I am one of those girls who frankly hates anything their boyfriend is doing with someone else but them.
I am one of those girls.
those girls I used to sneer at when i was single and have not comprehend the true meaning of the word : "dependent"

I am naturally possessive of my belongings, things that belong to me, but never a person, until these last years.

I used to be jealous when he goes to work and i had to stay home
I still am jealous when he goes out with his friends without me.
and I am ever more jealous now when he had to work on weekends.

Weekends are supposed to be MY time. MINE dammit!!

The only person he should be answering to is ME. the only person he should be wasting his time with is ME. the only person whose phone call and text he has to answer is ME.

Me. Me. Me. Me.
ME!

and NO EXCUSES!!!





** and so Crazy had spoken. Actually, i just OK'd him to work all day this weekend, with a smile no less, knowing full well i'd sulk all day that saturday. :,(

simple

We went nowhere far, stayed nowhere fancy, did nothing glamorous or over the top. Just the usual weekend regime, spoiling our tastebuds and leaning on each other in cozy cafes and corners.

Switching each others iPod along the road, his metal songs which i find too noisy and my bossa jazz songs which he finds too slow even more so with the rain and misty weather surrounding us.

Stayed up late watching TV until we fell asleep in each other's arm and as cheesy as it is, love.

halo apa kabar?

huaaaah

it's been more than a month since i last posted ya? (picnic dresses not included)

since then i have started working in L'oreal! this is my second month..
have shopped my first salary through and through.. the first item i bough was a very pretty black zara 10cm paltform heels! which i love sooo much.. my legs look gorgeous in them, a certain guy told me i looked really sexy in them but sadly i still havent recovered the toe numbing effect (!!).

I also
just got through the worst break down ever and by worst i mean NORAKest ever..

you see, i live in the southern part of jakarta, a.k.a ciganjur.. i always go to schools in south jakarta, and when i started college di UI it's only like 30 minutes from home. and even on weekends the furthest place i go is plaza senayan which takes an hour tops and i never drive there. So, needless to say i hardly ever got stuck in a traffic jam, and even if so either : I'm not the one driving and/or i'm with my friends.

Since i started working i had to commute ciganjur-kuningan, every day, and it takes me like 1.5 hours, and alone. ALONE. alone i had to take on all those wretched buses, angkots, and goddamn motorcycles. so last friday, i litterally cried in the car. I CRIED. NANGIS. malu sih..

tapi tau ngga? bukan cuma gue yang pernah (pernah lho bukan suka) nangis kalo kena macet! my friends too. ditambah PMS.. makin snsitif gila. I felt like screaming! kenapa siih semua bus itu ngalangin jalan gue! kenapa sih motornya jahat semua??? kenapa sih pada ga mau ngasi jalan?? I just want to get to work! fuckers!!!

yeaa it's true when they say traffic's a bitch..

tapi gue udah survey.. it's better berangkat jam 8.30 dari pada jam 8 APALAGI jam 7.30. that's the worst time, bisa 2 jam baru sampe. And it's better lewat mampang on friday because the street's e.m.p.t.y!

next week i'll be surveying the transjakarta.. save on money and energy.. i might convert soon.. bawa mobil kalo mau pergi pergi aja lah..

ya ngga? ;)
