</div><div style="text-align: center;">Today I woke up with an earnest to finish all my unfinished business.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Indeed it's been more than three hours and I have finished but very little.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Despite my under-accomplishments, I felt elated.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">With dawn came the soft drizzle of raindrops,</div><div style="text-align: center;">and when my father opened our front door, the smell of the rain wafted and seeped through the screen door.</div><div style="text-align: center;">It felt refreshing standing at the foot of the stairs, facing the doorway.</div><div style="text-align: center;">I have always loved the rain.</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I waved my dad and baby sister goodbye.</div><div style="text-align: center;">They got on the family car, my dad to his office and my sister to school.</div><div style="text-align: center;">I retreated upstairs and set myself upon my task.</div><div style="text-align: center;">After some time I looked out my window.</div><div style="text-align: center;">I held my breath.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Have you ever seen the world outside a rain-beaten window?</div><div style="text-align: center;">The clouds so violently gray, streaked with lightning</div><div style="text-align: center;">and thunder-rolls rumbling down accompanying the pitter-patter of rain on the asphalt, on the ground, on my mother's garden.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

they thought would be suitable to them,<br />
mine would find his.<br />
Or so I'd thought.<br />
And for some time we zoned in on each other's,<br />
tweaking in and tweaking high,<br />
never out and never low.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Only zoning in and tweaking high,<br />
absorbing each other's buzzes,<br />
sharing music and stories and news,<br />
and likes and dislikes,<br />
and more often than not just listening,<br />
tuning in on each other's frequencies,<br />
content in a private, outsider way.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

At times our frequencies found each other.<br />
At times I had so fervently hoped,<br />

we'd finally broadcast in a singular, unified occurence,<br />
that was ours.<br />
Our frequency.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

And came and went again.<br />
And the last time it came, it went out the door.<br />
My radio-heart was tired.<br />
Of tuning in to an irresponsive air,<br />
which would not blow its way.<br />
And so it honed in on another,<br />
a different transmission this time,<br />
it was content in its own way,<br />
a different type of comfort,<br />
a luxurious pleasure<br />
eradicating the anguish of such wait.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

My radio-heart at ease at last<br />
as his frequency faded to the background<br />
til it could not be heard again.<br />
For some time it went on like this,<br />
my new-found frequency, in beat with another,<br />
was at full blast diffusing our melodies,<br />
as one.<br />
And at the height of our refrain,<br />
one of which I was experiencing with another,<br />
through our very special bond,<br />

My radio-heart was happy and was sad,<br />
was worried and was tired.<br />
At last its frequency broke free,<br />
in the form of a little, microscopic strand,<br />
and tuned in to the wave of<br />
the one which it had departed,<br />
at last.<br />
It was curiosity, it was anxiety,<br />
a whole lot of apprehension,<br />
and concern, and discomfort.<br />
<br />
My little, microscopic strand,<br />
fidgety in its unease,<br />
did what little fidgety things do,<br />
and turned care into fret,<br />
and sympathy to exasperation.<br />
And in its aggravation,<br />
my little, microscopic strand<br />
caused interference on their transmission<br />
and I was shut off.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Our programs went on.<br />
My radio-heart is still<br />
with the half that makes me whole,<br />
broadcasting our melodies,<br />
in a singular wave that was ours,<br />
fused, cohesive, united.<br />
One frequency.<br />
A unification, an integration,<br />
an incorporation of all things odd and contradictory,<br />
that was nevertheless ours.<br />
We had never broadcasted in the same zone,<br />
in a likewise wave,<br />
yet we stayed true to each other.<br />
As one.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Time passed.<br />
Lately I've been honing in on his signal,<br />
the one whose signal mimics mine,<br />
but was a thousand wave-leagues away<br />
on the air.<br />
Our frequencies passed and our radio-hearts smiled.<br />
Hello, we both said.<br />
A new beginning.<br />
But this time,<br />
even when they passed,<br />
even when they entertwined,<br />
our frequencies would not get entangled,<br />
nor entwined.<br />
We knew better than that.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I'm still broadcasting in unison with my half.<br />
And maybe he with his.<br />
We're released in an unbound wave<br />
of broadcasts and signals<br />
and programs and songs.<br />
The air is limitless.<br />
And so am I.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I've been pretty much VERY busy this week.<br />
And not because of visa applications, which some of my friends have been led to believe,<br />
which also is very far from the truth since I haven't really gotten anywhere near done in doing it :p,<br />
but because I have been employed<br />
as the family personal chaffeur.<br />
<br />
My recently retired driver had a contract which specified he would be employed until June,<br />
but he'd already found a new job which started this May and asked for an early lay-off.<br />
My housekeeper offered her uncle as the new driver, but my Mom declined since he didn't really know his way around the city.<br />
And I thought I'd save the day by saying that I'll instead drive the family around,<br />
a decision that I soon-no, not regret-wished I'd put more thoughts into.<br />
<br />
I never knew being a driver would be so tiring.<br />
I drive an average of more than 100 km per day.<br />
And that's just from home-Tamara's school-Farrah's uni-Papi's office-and back home again.<br />
Not counting the going to and from Tamara's hopefully future highschool (she's a ninth grader currently), SMA 70 Jakarta, for entrance exams and results and whatnot.<br />
<br />
And speaking about results, Tamara graduated from junior high with flying colors!!!<br />
Do pay her a visit <a href="http://tamaraalasdair.blogspot.com/"><big><b>here</b></big></a> guys!<br />
She's a fashion blogger and got some pretty impressive pics at her page.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgT4cSHEL2YWTvt-LQXhmx0TDZXDuDqie5Z3tNageKSLN0dAPPgih4Ut1ro2SfynFUkw9-BX65U9ZLett2Rx9kpacshaqnf-0VSQKDSKGhlSmO8KMQw04CQBSUDLVK5VJ4yugZ07Gp2wzxe/s1600/DSCN7719.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgT4cSHEL2YWTvt-LQXhmx0TDZXDuDqie5Z3tNageKSLN0dAPPgih4Ut1ro2SfynFUkw9-BX65U9ZLett2Rx9kpacshaqnf-0VSQKDSKGhlSmO8KMQw04CQBSUDLVK5VJ4yugZ07Gp2wzxe/s320/DSCN7719.JPG" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

<br />
During the date Hasbi very casually told me that I look chubbier than ever.<br />
"And not that it's a bad thing," he said, "because it's actually very good."<br />
For him, the chubby, cherubic, cutesy chick look/thing is a definite turn on.<br />
But for me, and I believe girls in general, I don't want to be told that I'm chubbier.<br />
Girls want to hear from people-and especially from our boyfriends-that we've actually lost some pounds and that we look rather ravishing in our new bods,<br />
<small>which is why I've been slaving away at the gym during my free time recently.</small><br />
<br />
<small>I'm sure you'd have thought that with regular workout at the gym plus all the exhaustion from being a personal chaffeur, one would lose a couple of pounds.<br />
Quite the contrary as yours truly have actually gained some.</small><br />
<br />
H asked me a couple days back on the phone, "What are you gonna do then, when you've reached your ideal weight?"<br />
to which I promptly replied, "Buy new clothes for the new bod!" with one of those duh-rolling-eyes thing that I do so well.<br />
His response was a mere scoff.<br />
<br />
People told me I should be grateful that I have a boyfriend who'd probably like you more when you put on some weight than when you lose some.<br />
But H is one person compared to the 1.6 billion other people in the world who'd prefer skinny chicks than chubby ones.<br />
And let's face it we grew up in a world and time that very much prefers the former than the latter.<br />
<br />
Having typed this I realize that maybe I would better be off living in Ancient Greece where the people had so much appreciation for chubby women like I am. :p<br />
I'm sure I'd be quite a catch. :p<br />
LOL.<br />
<br />
Anyways,<br />
I've got two more occasions lined up in my scheduled this week!<br />
First up is meeting up with my girls to visit Saura's newly born nephew tomorrow!!!<br />

HI! <br />
Did I scare you? <br />
<br />
On 6:55 AM 4/20/2010 I wrote in my diary,<br />
"I woke up feeling like downloading e-books even though I just bought 5 new ones this week alone and it's only been 2 days. </div><div style="text-align: center;">And now my internet's flaked and the time left to finish the download shows 23:59:59+ so I'm naturally pissed."<br />
<br />
The 5 new books, which I bought on Mon, plus the 6 e-books I've downloaded on Tues and Wed, I've already devoured by Thurs.<br />
<br />
Hasbi said I was the perfect embodiment of <a href="http://www.worldbookdayindonesia.org/">World Book Day</a> <span style="font-size: large;">every</span> day.<br />
I take that as a compliment naturally.<br />
<br />
He also often said that I go crazy over pieces of paper and ink,<br />
which I countered by saying that he goes crazy over plastic and rubber splashed with paint<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">(he collects action figures).</span><br />
<br />
He often made me out saying I have my nose in a book all day.<br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;">Anyways,</span><br />
on a totally unrelated note, but which should be the point of this post,<br />
I've been absent for so long and I'm not gonna make excuses as to why and what had happened and would like to just get right back to blogging again.<br />
Hopefully.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
As is the nature of things, a lot has happened during my absence.<br />
I'll just list the two major ones: <br />
<br />
1.

And as anticipated,<br />
I'm <span style="font-size: large;">super</span> excited to start the school year in 3 months time!<br />
<br />
Anyways with that said, I really have no more major things to tell you. :p<br />
<br />
So now, some words from our sponsors...<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Well there's no sponsors really, so it's actually just yours truly and some cool images I found on the net that I feel would be a shame to go to waste. :p</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-NH7Pp5ZeA_JHu0P5NuI_51Gl8U-mEDk0jG8L3WOogXkpmm627CX16I5sTi3_lD8KWm-NWg2Z1t5fdA9TCwLvlZk2kzW0jlAyhpy32HzIi-xWbBm3W0wQsYzzJXbDyXUxvi_aGmucCOuo/s1600/tumblr_l0ajefEUgF1qzwaddo1_500_large.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-NH7Pp5ZeA_JHu0P5NuI_51Gl8U-mEDk0jG8L3WOogXkpmm627CX16I5sTi3_lD8KWm-NWg2Z1t5fdA9TCwLvlZk2kzW0jlAyhpy32HzIi-xWbBm3W0wQsYzzJXbDyXUxvi_aGmucCOuo/s320/tumblr_l0ajefEUgF1qzwaddo1_500_large.jpg" /></a><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">It seems like it's been so long<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">(indeed it's been one whole week[!!!])<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">since I last posted. :)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">For those who have visited my blog before,<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">you might have known that I've been busy with the so-called Trial<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">(this gruesome Thesis Defense Hearing)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">every undergraduate student must go through<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>and pass, </i>mind you,<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">in order to graduate. :)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">To make a long story short...<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I've GRADUATEDD!!! :D :D :D<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Indeed I can now call myself a Bachelor of Economics! ;)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Sounds fancy, doesn't it?<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">HEHEH. :p<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I've been pronounced a BE since Jan 12th,<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">which was also the Trial date btw,<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">and yet I've been soo busy with graduation<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">(read: picking out a pretty kebaya and choosing a flattering updo ;))<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">as well as getting the Thesis published in the Uni Library. :D<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">And though I know any excuse is not good enough to fill in on the blog absence but I do hope you'd understand. :) <br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">My Mami accompanied me on that fateful day<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">she brings good luck ;)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">and she absolutely did!<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I graduated with a wonderful, wonderful grade on top of the pure bliss of graduating at all! :D<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Though I couldn't have done it without the support of my dearest ALLAH SWT, my family, my friends, my thesis counselor, as well as YOU!<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Yes you reading this, you!<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">So thank you! :)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Good luck and godspeed for all your future endeavors.<br />

I've Got Me.<div style="text-align: center;">It was just yesterday I told a good friend of mine, D, on an intense girl-to-girl, heart-to-heart session<br />
that there was no point in wallowing in sadness and disappointment.<br />
And if she keeps on doing that it will only end up in the destruction of her self-confidence, her self-esteem,<br />
and in all the very essence that makes her who she is;<br />
the great person and the good friend that we know and love.<br />
<br />
I also told her that no matter what happens nothing can take away the wonderful person that is her<br />
and that GOD wouldn't put his Servant through trials and tribulations if they can't overpower these afflictions.<br />
<br />
I then quoted Dolly Parton by saying, "The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain."<br />
"And if you do, D, put up with the rain that is, GOD will have in store for you a great reward and there is no greater reward than His," I told her.<br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I said to D that rather than be immersed in the mishaps that had befallen her, it would be better that she get back up on her feet and took brave steps forward.<br />
"Sure you can cry your eyes out, punch your pillows til you tire yourself out," I told her. "But what would you get out of that except nothing. "I understand you completely and have been in numerous similar situations," I continued.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">"I understand why we get angry when things don't go our way, but being angry itself won't ever get us out of our situation.</span><br />
"Blow off your steam, D. Turn all that negative energy into positive ones. What just happened was not your fault and you will not a single person get in the way of your dreams.<br />
"It's not worth it to be agitated because you're better than that."<br />
<br />
As Sharon Salzberg said, "If we fall, we don't need self-recrimination or blame or anger - we need a reawakening of our intention and a willingness to re-commit, to be whole-hearted once again."<br />
<br />
Now I am going to follow my own advice.<br />

It was about 10:45 PM last night. I was feeling absolutely elated about my new blog friends - <smallest>I do hope we'll be friends</smallest>! So I decided to check my blog through my phone before I went to sleep.<br />
What met my eyes was not something I had quite expected at all.<br />
<br />
"maaff yaaa muka anda ga enak utk diliat" 2010-01-07 2:47 PM<br />
"jangan sok cantik" 2010-01-07 2:48 PM<br />
<br />
"Sorry your face is not a pleasant thing to see"<br />
"Stop acting like you're pretty"<br />
were what both the messages said.<br />
<br />
I couldn't sleep.<br />
Not anymore.<br />

My phone vibrated.<br />
It was a text from H.<br />
<br />
"Pick up your phone."<br />
<br />
I looked at the screen and saw 5 missed calls.<br />
All from him.<br />
<br />
"You can call me now," I texted back. Soon enough he called, and I told him about my trial and tribulation.<br />
<br />
He said, "Car, why should you bother with what other people think about you!?"<br />
<br />
Of course I was not expecting to hear this kind of answer. I started to open my mouth in reply but he continued anywyas.<br />
"Car, you're fighting a losing battle! <span style="font-size: large;">You CAN'T make everybody like you! You CAN'T make people happy all the time!</span><br />
"It is not worth your time dealing with people like them! Life is too short and you do not have to waste it on such spiteful, hateful people!"<br />

<br />
I understood what he had said and I know that somehow it was true<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">but I couldn't get past it to accept it.<br />
"No Hasbi, don't you get it? I CANNOT be in any fight or confrontation right now. And what better way to win over an enemy than by gaining them as a friend?"<br />
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><br />
I was referring to the Abraham Lincoln quote which stated, "The best way to destroy an enemy is to make him a friend."</span><br />
<br />
H let out a sarcsatic laugh. "Car, what you do is <i>exactly</i> confronting them."<br />
I made a sound of protest but H shut me up.<br />
"Just <i>how</i> do you expect you befriend them?!<br />
"Don't you see? Confrontation just gives them more pleasure - you're giving them what they want!<br />
"You're better than them. You don't need people like them in your life!<br />
"Why should you listen to what they say anyway? It's your life.<br />
"Their opinions don't matter! So why stress yourself out by listening to their pitiful comments? It's ridiculous!"<br />
<br />
I was speechless.<br />
<br />
H continued, "You don't need to put up with their crap, Car. And you especially don't need to make friends with them."<br />
I hmm-ed in reply, defeated.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">There was a silence.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
"Listen," H said. "I have 10 friends, 100 friends, or even 10,000 friends...they don't matter to me!"<br />
<br />
"Because you'd rather have one friend that's true to you than 10,000 that would leave your side the minute a misfortune befalls you?" I interrupted.<br />
<br />
"Yes but no," I could imagine him shaking his head on the other side of the phone line, a little smile playing on his lips.<br />
"I don't know about you Car, but I got my family and most importantly I got you!!!<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">"I don't <i>need</i> friends!<br />
"Not as long as I have you by my side."<br />
<br />
We hung up shortly afterwards. Hasbi was right.<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This is <i>my life.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I own it and I steer it in whichever direction I want to take.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And whatever path I'm taking they won't be there; the ill-natured, malicious people.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I can earn nothing from them.</span><br />
So I'm severing my ties with them even before any tie is formed.<br />

<br />
I believe that you are who you make out you are.<br />
You are who you believe you are.<br />
And I certainly do not make myself out as someone who is remotely ugly.<br />
Sure you can make a list of my "atrocities" and shove it under my nose and say "Intan, you're ugly."<br />
In fact I'll make the list for you!<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">1. Your nose is crooked<br />
2. You weight more than 50 kg<br />
3. You wear glasses<br />
4. You wear braces<br />
5. Your shoulders are too broad<br />
6. You have no ass<br />
7. Your scrawny legs don't match your heavy upper body<br />
8. You dye your hair black to hide your already graying hair<br />
9. You have acne scars on your face<br />
10. You're a geek</span><br />
And the list goes on and on.<br />
<br />
And yet <span style="font-size: large;">no</span> I won't even feel even an atomic speck in my heart of hearts that I'm ugly.<br />
I'll adamantly and vehemently reject such a notion.<br />
I am who I make out I am and I am who I believe I am.<br />
And I make myself out as a charming, friendly and intelligent woman. And I believe I am so.<br />
People, even the ones that don't know you, can say a lot of things about you.<br />
And the internet has given these hatemongers a powerful, anonymous, and dangerous medium for them to disseminate such hateful messages as I have received.<br />
We bloggers acknowledge and agree that freedom of expression is a fundamental right.<br />
But so too is the right to be treated with equality, dignity and respect, and to be protected from the harm that can be caused by such expressions.<br />
At this time and age how to provide such protection is a great debate in every country.<br />
In the meantime all we can do is to protect ourselves.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">As I said, people, even the ones that don't know you, can say a lot of things about you.<br />
But you can always ignore them as they're not worth your time.<br />
You know yourself more than anybody, so why take their words for what you know isn't true.<br />
Remember it is not in anybody's best interests to interact with such a venomous bunch.</span><br />

"Everything is material for the seed of happiness, if you look into it with inquisitiveness and curiosity. The future is completely open, and we are writing it moment to moment. There always is the potential to create an environment of blame -- or one that is conducive to loving-kindness."<br />
- Pema Chödrön<br />
<br />
Surround yourself with people who love you. :)<br />
<br />
“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.”<br />
- Dr. Seuss<br />
<br />
“If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”<br />
- Dr. Wayne Dyer<br />
<br />
“If you’re going through hell, keep going.”<br />
- Winston Churchill<br />
<br />
What D experienced and what I experienced were strictly different things.<br />
And yet I will follow my own advice.<br />
I have fallen and now I am picking myself up.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">There was some <span style="font-size: large;"><b>SERIOUS FOOD PORN</b></span> going on!<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Our NYE menu:</b><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>1.</b> Fettucini<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>2.</b> Roasted Beef<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>3.</b> BBQ Chicken<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>4.</b> BBQ Fish<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>5.</b> Roasted Beef Sausages<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>6.</b> Soft Drinks<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>7.</b> Veggie Ice Cream<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">And from our NYE we also incurred that it must have been women who found fire in prehistoric times<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">as Tania was soo~ goodd at keeping the fire going over our BBQ.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">It was either that or she's a secret pyromaniac or something. :)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Especially as it was she and Dida who fired off the fireworks.<br />

And as we were on the roof, the neighbors' fireworks literally went off RIGHT above our heads and we (read: especially me) had to duck and take cover a couple of times (read: a LOT.)<br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Apart from sounding our trumpets and firing off the fireworks<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">- it was soo hard to capture those fireworks in the sky :( - </span><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">we also played UNO where I was undisputed champion.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">I know sooo many ways in which to trick people to say Uno. ;)<br />
</span><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">And we also watched a movie,<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1186370/">SPREAD.</a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">We picked it because Ashton Kutcher's playing but we...<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">well <span style="font-size: large;"><b>I</b></span> ended up watching with my eyes closed.<br />

<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">On Christmas Eve we decided that we should go on a date and catch a movie, Avatar.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">My family were actually watching the same movie at that moment but at a different mall.</span><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcRG7YjRSlCunTqn7QkLu_aZmQxti11r7dc7uAVcj-HF4SfRmLEqTwqCo5rJDM3LF3n7O6qiFqvurIwHGE6JpQPQ5tidAWZG4iwFNc9GEruSlMegWHxg0P-0thortkvZ-Y7g7ia87zsuSn/s1600-h/DSCN9525.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"> </a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Before we watched the movie though, we made a few stops along the way:<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><b>1.</b> Lunch with H's dad at this restaurant</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><b>2.</b> Hunting for new Wii and PS2 games. H also bought me Cardcaptor Sakura DVDs!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">But the 1st DVD turned out to be corrupted and so I plan to return them soon. :(</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><b>3.</b> Going to H's house for more food because H was hungry.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">H's mom gave us money to buy ourselves ice creams, or so she said, but he spent it all on fuel. Grr. >:p</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><b>4.</b> We checked out the XBox 360 and stuff.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Then</span><br />
we got to the mall <span style="font-size: large;">at last</span> to watch the movie.<br />
<br />
Only we didn't.<br />
<br />
Because we met this little guy right here:<br />

Arr!<br />
<br />
Hasbi is a big fan of Kamen Rider and he collects their action figures.<br />
But he said that he needed more bad guys in his collection<br />
so that when he played with them, it would be more fun or something.<br />
<br />
Boys, right..?<br />
<br />
Anyways Toys City Indonesia is having this huge holiday season sale since the end of October I believe and this little guy was on sale.<br />
So naturally H bought it because we thought he looked evil enough to be KR's enemy.<br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><i>See, even H has to hold him down or he'd smash your computer screens.</i></span><br />
<br />
We don't actually know whether he's actually a bad guy or not in the show (Something Sanzer I believe) though.<br />
<br />
And the rest are pics we took that day fooling around the mall.<br />
<br />
H was extremely snappy happy that day and told me to get into "the pit."<br />
I ended up destroying some poor girl's photo shoot for her blog I presume.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Sorry!!!</span><br />

But I had to hang up.<br />
My baby sister entered my room, looking for her marker or some sort.<br />
She found it and exited.<br />
<br />
09:42:12<br />
I rang him up again.<br />
His sleepy voice answered my cheery greeting.<br />
<br />
"Assalamualaikum!" I said.<br />
A drowsy "Wa alaikum salam" was his answer.<br />
I smiled.<br />
He was asleep.<br />
It was Saturday after all.<br />
And he was not an early waker even during the school days.<br />
<br />
"I have something to confess," I told him,<br />
a smile playing on my lips though he couldn't see.<br />
"Hmm" was his reply.<br />
<br />
I continued, "I have a crush on somebody else."<br />
And he grunted in his half-sleep.<br />
"You're supposed to be jealous," I reminded him<br />
and he grunted again.<br />
<br />
"Which character in a book now that you're crushing in?"<br />
he managed to say, half-yawning.<br />
I smiled.<br />
I had an urge to kiss him at that moment and instead launched into a story depicting my current crush to which he grunted and hmmed in all the most adorable manner.<br />
I pictured him laying in his bed, half asleep, with his eyes still closed,<br />
his phone laid beside him just close enough to his ear to hear me talk.<br />
And I smiled.<br />
I wanted to kiss him again and hold him in my arms.<br />
<br />
"What do you want to do now?" I asked him,<br />
to which he promptly replied "Sleep."<br />
And I said to him half pouting,<br />
though he couldn't see it,<br />
"Don't you miss me?"<br />
to which he replied "I miss you too."<br />
<br />
I left him to sleep then.<br />
And I ended the call.<br />
"Okay then," I said.<br />
Again a grunt was all he could muster.<br />
"I love you."<br />
"I love you too."<br />
"Assalamualaikum.<br />
"Wa alaikum salam."<br />
<br />
A brief silence.<br />
He had drifted back to sleep I assumed.<br />
I smiled and looked at my book.<br />
I hang up the phone.<br />
<br />
"Nobody Owens," I said outloud to myself<br />
and flicked through the pages of the book<br />
its characters running around in my head<br />
future possibilities and what-might-happens of<br />
Silas,<br />
Miss Lupescu,<br />
Liza and Scarlett<br />
the Kiss-on-the-Cheek,<br />
his Passport,<br />
Jacks of All Trades,<br />
the Owens, the Dorians,<br />
and all and Nobody Owens.<br />
<br />
I smiled.<br />
And for a good quarter of an hour I laid on my bed,<br />
that good unshakable, fuzzy electric feeling<br />
of a good well-written well-read--<br />
of its characters and stories imprinted on one's head--<br />
book.<br />
<br />
I smiled for the hundredth times today.<br />
And typed this up on my laptop.<br />

People please put down your torches it's <i>me</i> Intan! :O<br />
<br />
Whew.<br />
<br />
I've been on a comatose in the blogosphere I guess with the almost three weeks absence<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">but yes I'm back.</span><br />
<br />
I know not updating in so long is probably the <span style="font-size: large;">WORST</span> thing that any blogger could do...<br />
So I'm just gonna cut all the excuses and do a quick catch up post as to what's been happening in my life. :)<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">1. JGTC</span></b><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.jazzgoestocampus.net/">JGTC</a> or Jazz Goes to Campus is the <span style="font-size: large;">2nd oldest jazz event in the world</span> and is hosted by the faculty of yours truly,<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">the Faculty of Economics and Business of Universitas Indonesia! :<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">This year's theme was to bring out a <span style="font-size: large;">Sense of Rejuvenation</span>, which is further defined by the committee as an attempt to capture the essence of revitalizing, refreshing, and restoring the true nature of jazz.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">This year's JGTC was quite amazing as there's a new addition to the whole package of events! :)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">It was the <a href="http://jazzgoestocampus.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=105&catid=42">JGTC Roadshow!</a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Sheer genius I'm telling you! :)<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">And on the D-day, the Jazz lineup was also excellent!<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Here are some of them:<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">¡Hola amigos!<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
Among my close friends, they know how much I hated my previous post about my current (and also everlasting) obsession with chunky jewelry and hats.<br />
I made that one just so I wouldn't be absent too long from the blogosphere...<br />
but then again with all these graduation deadlines how can one choose to be absent or not<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">really?</span><br />
<i><span style="font-size: xx-small;">In fact I am typing this as a short break from revising my report. :O</span></i><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Plus </span>I've only just learned that the gifs don't work in blogger dammit!!!<br />
So I do advise you to <a href="http://pinktentacle.com/2009/10/animated-stereoviews-of-old-japan/">check out Pink Tentacle's site</a> for the cool moving images.<br />
They really help you to visualize them in 3D, absolutely yes Sirree! ;)<br />
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">Especially the one of the Buddhist Ornament dealer--coolest, most 3D one EVER! :) w00t!<br />
</span><br />
<br />
Anywaaaayyss<br />

<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><i>I'm the one on the far right. :)</i></span><br />
<br />
A memorable quote from this year's Eid came from my friend <a href="http://www.facebook.com/annisa.riani?ref=mf">Annisa Riani</a> who said,<br />
<blockquote>"Belajar berkurban seperti Ibrahim, belajar ikhlas seperti Ismail."<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
The quote translates to roughly something like,<br />
<blockquote><span style="font-size: large;">"Learn of Abraham's selflessness, learn of Ishmael's <a href="http://www28.brinkster.com/mushrf/12506/KHLAS%20-%20SINCERITY.htm">sincerity,</a><a href="http://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=8306689982388515792&postID=2578549429988769551">"</a></span><br />
</blockquote>which is a whole new level of <a href="http://www.missionislam.com/knowledge/love.htm">Love</a> altogether for me, though one I hopefully will achieve. :)<br />
<br />
But enough about me!<br />
How was Eid for you? And the World AIDS Day?<br />
Or today? :) <br />
<br />
Anyways, I gotta go back to the report now!<br />
<br />
Wish me luck!<br />
<br />
With Love,<br />
Intan<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Oooh <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoviews">fancy word</a> ain't it?<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Got nothing much to say about,<br />
something that is worth posting that is.<br />
But I said that I was gonna<span style="font-size: large;"> repent,</span><br />
meaning I'd be a better blogger this time around.<br />
<br />
And a one-week absence does NOT translate into a good blogger, methinks.<br />
Unless you're like really really famous and got a fanbase<br />
+ huge following already.<br />
Which I have not. :p <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Anyways,</span><br />
I was never very fashionable--<br />

Hello! :)<br />
<br />
I'm typing this at the fitness center, leeching off of their free wi-fi. :p<br />
It's kinda sucky though, the connection, but as it's free so I can't really complain.<br />
Plus this is definitely better than at my place, where the modem's broken.<br />
<br />
Anyways, how are you guys? Did you have a good weekend?<br />
Well I hope so because <span style="font-size: 130%;">I certainly did. :)</span><br />
<br />
So a month and 4 days after H and I had our two-year anniversary<br />
<span style="font-size: 85%;">(read: this Sunday),</span><br />
we went out to celebrate!!!<br />
<span style="font-size: 78%;">YAY!</span><br />
<br />
And as we never planned anything beforehand,<br />
<span style="font-size: 85%;">which is why we always ended up at PIM,</span><br />
PIM was exactly where we went! :p<br />
<br />
Hasbi bought me a cute solar-powered Hello Kitty that shakes its head and body under the light.<br />
