Ikat rambut

Last Friday.. just like usual when i came to the office i've always had this ritual, went to the rest room for a make up.. yes, a make up. just like any other morning-after-a-long-walk, i usually wiped my sweat, this time with a toilet tissue. then i stood under the hand dryer, to dry my 'wet' clothes and hair. then i really did this stupid thing.. i started to untie my hair and continued to dry it. i held my ikat rambut on my left hand, and tissue on my right. there's a trash can next to my left. then here it goes, i threw my ikat rambut to the trash can! well because i thought it's the tissue (that i actually held on the other hand). i still remember how my face looked a second after throwing it. priceless lol! i was gonna take it, but the feel of disgust beaten me.

so for the rest of the day, since no one had an ikat rambut that i could use, i did all my activity with my hair left untied. not that i dont have a rubber band, i do have but it's just 'not my level'. custom rubber band always hurt me especially when i use it on my hair. during my sweaty day, just right in time when i've finished all my works and tidied up my desk, a miracle, i've found an ikat rambut. it was there since forever, i know. but i just dont know who it belongs to. i know i wasnt supposed to take it (since it's not mine), but i wear it anyway.

suddenly i realized something. this is what God wants. it's God's will that i accidentally thrown my ikat rambut. it's God's will that there's another ikat rambut at my desk. the other ikat rambut was prepared there long before i knew i would threw my ikat rambut. it was prepared long before i even asked for it. so this thought relates me to other topic.. a soul mate. i believe He's already prepared my soul mate, long before i even ask for it!!

And with Him are the keys of the unseen; none knows them except Him. And He knows what is on the land and in the sea. Not a leaf falls but that He knows it. And no grain is there within the darknesses of the earth and no moist or dry [thing] but that it is [written] in a clear record. (QS Al-An'am 6:59)

From Sarden, with Love..

Good Morniiiiinnnggggg.... let's see what do we have today..? aaaah new menu! Nuggets ^o^ yesterday i spent a night with my uncles' family. and one of my aunts bought a pack of chicken nuggets (500 gr), and it cost only Rp15000. just then i had in mind, let's say it contains 20 pcs, then it will cost 1500 per 2 pcs. well, it's actually more than 20 pcs though (around 30 or 40 i guess). ok, that's cheap enough. now let's cook some.

i take you back to my first months here in Jakarta.. at the very first few months, i've been a very very accountable person (let's say.. saving). i've always counted every detail outcomes. every day i bought perkedel for lunch, which only cost Rp1000 :D lol.. as the days gone by.. when everything became more expensive, the size of perkedel is getting smaller but still with the same price. then i changed to another menu, telur dadar (omelet) which cost Rp2000 :D lol.. can you imagine, the same meals for daily routines? ok then the price of telur dadar was increased become Rp2500 and got smaller size. i then found another dish that exactly has the same price with telur dadar. a sarden (sardine). i thought that it contains more protein (but i dunno). every day i brought sarden for lunch, and my colleagues was like called me "Fafa Sarden" or something -_-' when i thought that the price of sarden is getting more irrational, i switched to vegetables (thats one of my reason to become a vegetarian only at lunch). sayur only cost Rp2000 but after a week i was getting bored. could be because of the taste or less variation. i just cant understand how can a person survived in becoming a vegetarian for 30 years and goes on!?!?!?!

and today it seems like i've found another menu :D so, welcome nuggets hehehe.. cooked only in a rice cooker (i called it my multi functional rice cooker) cos i'm too lazy to go down to the kitchen. at first i have no idea on how i will cook this nuggets, whether i 'fried' it with butter or oil, or i chopped into small pieces.. then here's what i do.. just cooked it in a rice cooker, without oil. good smell though.. and i think i smell something's burnt now!

First time after sooooome time..

3 January 2011, first working day in 2011, will be my witness cos i'm gonna wear a skirt to office :D i cant remember when was the last time i wear a skirt. let's hope that i'm not gonna mess it up.

I'm pregnant?!

since past few months i've been thinking of wearing skirt.. well, actually this idea came up from a friend's suggestion. he said that i should be more feminine. yesterday i went to PGC (Pusat Grosir Cililitan) with my aunt, to look for some skirts. been through so many stores, been seen so many motives but nothings fit me! frustated, then i went to maternity store. they got some pregnant skirts made of jeans. i tried one. surprisingly, it fitted me. then the storekeeper showed me the left side of the skirt. she said, "if your pregnancy is getting bigger, u can loosen this string. it's made of rubber" i was like "fuck! now she must be thinking i'm pregnant!" then she loosen the rubber and the front of the skirt was also loose a bit.. then i left after she said that.

it's hard to look for some outfit when you're size is FAFA size. :( i think i need to start diet or fasting or working out. i wish i were 25 kgs slimmer.. well actually i'm not that fat! big only on certain parts of my body like thigh, butt,... oh, once Miranti told me when i asked her if my stomach is big, "your boobs are bigger than your belly" and she still considered that as an OK hehehe :D

so after a veryyyy looooong search... finally got this two skirts that fit me. not the best cut or motives, but like i first said, they're the only skirts that fit me! lol.. at first they cost Rp135,000 each (from a different store). after some bargaining i got Rp80,000 for the grey one and Rp85,000 for the purple one. *but hell i still consider it as EXPENSIVE!!*

thing that becomes my question is, "will i have guts to wear them?" :s
