Good Bye Ama Belitung

My grandmother, i called her Ama Belitung, died this morning, i was very sad, my mother sadder. I had a plan to visit her this Lebaran or Christmas time and bring her great grand daughter, Jocelyn, and introduce her for the first time, already to late ... oh ... sigh :'( . I never seen her again since i was on high school. She died at age of 85. I pray to the Almighty for her soul, grant her peace forever and ever and grant us his solace.

*I even don't have her photograph....sighh...[really sad mode on] *

A day with Mrs Emot

Last Monday i went hang out with Mrs.Emot, my cousin. It has been a very long time i never spent my time nor her together. So she visited me, we went swimming together, went sauna after, and we tried to catch up shuttle bus to Artha Gading (escape from husband ... hehehe) but failed so we took taxi instead of waiting the shuttle bus.

I was grateful of a fact that she already married, so both of us are wife. We talk about many "tabu" things together and for us is not "tabu" anymore ... hahaha, before she married i have to keep any household problems by my self, and that was suck ! Thanx God now i have a friend to share with. I still wait mo other friend to get married soon, so i can share it with her to .... hehehehe.

We just got some dinner there, we ate at Satay Senayan, one of my fave dine place. After, we catch Daiso, we spent almost 30 min inside just to laugh and guess the purpose of things sale there... ahahaha.

That's her from right side

Ooooppss blurrred

After dine, we went to Daiso, I just dont belive i bought this :

It's a bag, Cute isn't it ?

Kartika Spa - Mediterania Palace Residences

Sampe lupa nih mau cerita satu tempat yang lagi hot - hotnya (buat gue ... hehehe). Secara i love spa very much, ini tempat yang kudu gue datengin, specially hari senen, karena disini semua perawatan diskon 50% ... sik asikkk... sayangnya sampe sekarang, gue blom sempet lagi mengecap perawatan disono gara - gara tiap senen pasti ada aja tamu ... hehehhe.

Pertama berkunjung, i cukup confuse mau pilih perawatan apa, bolak - balik buku katalog, akhirnya mata gue nancep di Slimming spa, alias perawatan untuk ngurusin badan. Pas banget buat gue yang lagi ndut - ndutnya.

Naik ke lantai 3, tempat untuk massage, ada 3 bilik, lalu ada steam sauna, dan ada kamar mandi. I disuruh mandi dulu supaya pori - pori kebuka dan ramuan pijatnya bisa menyerap. Sehabis mandi daku disuguhi minuman kesehatan kencur yang mengandung gula aren, yang katanya bagus buat kesehatan dan ga bikin gemuk karena gula arennya itu, sekaligus dikasih cake cemilan kecil - kecilan. Habis kenyang, mbak - mbak tukang pijetnya dateng, dan gue disuruh sauna dulu 30 menit, bener - bener alat steam yang muanteebb (gue jadi pengen beli ... hehehhee). Saunanya bener - bener hot sampe gue keringetan abis, lanjoot pijet selama 60 menit ... biarpun sebentar tapi hasilnya muantebbb ... percaya ga percaya gue turun sekilo setelah perawatan (pulang langsung nimbang).

Setelah perawatan slimming, gue cobain facial tradisional (bukan biokos), dia pakai perawatan yang ingredientsnya khusus buatan dia ... katanya alami, dan gue coba pakai black tea .... bener - bener bikin gue ketagihan sama wanginya, secara gue emang suka banget wangi teh.

Tempatnya cozy banget, lain sama tempat - tempat spa kompetitornya yang ada di sekitar Mediterania Palace. Mbak - mbaknya juga professional banget, ga suka ngegosip, kerja ya kerja, ga seperti di beberapa tempat spa yang pernah gue datengin.

Harga lumayan terjangkau berkisar antara 100rb - 300rb, apalagi kalo senen ... jangan lupa tuh senen !!

Totally all out deh, for me, i rate this place 8 of 10 !!

For detail alamatnya nyusul ya, secara gue lupa. Yang pasti : salah satu ruko di Apartment Meditrania Palace Residences, Kemayoran.

Some of the pictures (diambilnya pake camera hape ... jadi maklum rada burem):

Bali ... all of my beautiful memories

My bff miss.P just went to Bali last week and she just posted her last Bali experience in her blog, i just so envy of her ... huhuhu. I wish i can escape my routine and go there. Three times i went there and still miss that island and i would like to go there for 1000 more times .. huehehehe specially i always go there for free.

My first trip was sponsored by my office, at 2006 , it was my IT department trip, only IT guys who went there, and it means only six of us, umm actually we became 7 there becoz one of our office secretary joined us, lucky me since i was the only girl in my department! It was sooo budget trip, every of us just budgeted for 1.200.000 per person, include airplane ticket. Lucky for us we could get cheap ticket at that time, we rent a car and went wherever we like, no matter how long and how far the place. It was so fun at that time, first time i did parasailing at Bedugul and met famous Malaysian singer Siti Nurhaliza. It was my first experience to that so called island of Gods, the first time i felt so grateful to be Indonesian ... hehehehe, no need passport and high cost to get into that beautiful island.

Gile ye ... dulu i was so skinny .... oo em jii !!

First lunch, Jimbaran

Parasailing ... it was me loh !

met Siti Nurhaliza

My second trip was sponsored by Yamaha Motor, at 2007, it was my first experience won the lottery. The detail is i bought my first motorbike Yamaha Mio, actually i didn't know that time Yamaha held a lottery, the winner will meet and dinner with miss Universe (that time was Ryo Mori from Japan) and putri Indonesia (i can't remember her name ... hehehe), then suddenly i got call from the dealer and they told that i am one of the 1000 winner. I never belief such kind of luck till i faced it by my self ... haha ! That was a fabulous trip ever, slept in a very fabulous hotel, met some new fabulous friends there (we never know each other before but we just like bro and sis). We went crazy together, went clubbing, went swimming, and we did some crazy actions like dragged one to another into the sea in the middle of the night...ahahaha, but unfortunately i had that fun time just only for 3 days, after we went home, we lost contact one and another.

At Ngurah Rai airport with the others

Photo with miss U session


My lovely hotel ...

Ini suasana dinnernya, my only photo at the event ... bener - bener blur ya ... hehehehe!

Still on the same year, my third trip was sponsored, again from the office. This time also department trip but i went together with other operational department team ... so it was a large tour, and more fun than the first time.

Ready to snork !


always love Uluwatu

I wish i will go back there again this year .... huhuhuhu, but if i look at my baby's face, it seems that i have to postpone it until ... at least three more years ... uhuhuhuhu, that's why im so excited to read my bff story about her trip to Bali, i feel pity for your alergic honey ... huehehehe.

"Pertama kali"-nya gue, "pertama kali"-nya lo apa ?

Ntah sadar atau nggak sadar bahwa kehidupan gue udah jauh berubah, prosesnya seperti analogi bahwa diri lo adalah sebuah kentang dan tiba - tiba ketika lo sadar lo udah menjadi potato chips. Hal itu lah yang akhirnya gue sadari, kayaknya baru aja kemaren gue lulus S1, masih cengengesan, masih hahahihi, tau - tau sekarang kok gue jadi gendong anak, masak, mikirin kerjaan and duit, dan sebagainya dan sebagainya, kalo gue tarik lagi kebelakang ... kok gue kayak lupa ingetan hehehe.

Banyak "pertama kali" things terjadi pada semua orang : pertama kali bisa jalan, pertama kali masuk sekolah, pertama kali nyontek, pertama kali pacaran, pertama kali diospek, pertama kali dapet kerjaan, dan soun dan soun lainnya.

Ada tiga "pertama kali" yang ga bakal gue lupain seumur hidup gue.

1. Pertama kali nyontek, kejadiannya kelas 3 SD, ada 10 pertanyaan ulangan seni musik dan gue cuma bisa 9 ... sebenernya gue udah liat jawaban temen sebelah gue tapi gue bener - bener nggak enak untuk nulisnya ... felt guilty gitu, angel and demon fought, akhirnya gue jadi dapet 100 X( . Gue bener - bener merasa bersalah, dan gue mau bilang ke ibu guru gue kalo gue nyontek, .... angel and demon fought again ... and Demon still won, pikiran gue saat itu ... hmmm sekaliiii aja besok - besok ga lagi ..... akhirnya gue lulus kuliah gara - gara nyontek juga .... wakakakakaa ... sape sih yang nggak !!!

2. Pertama kali gue punya anak, waktu di rumah sakit gue cuma ketemu anak gue jam 8 pagi sama jam 2 sore dan itu pun cuma 1 jam doank. Selama satu jam itu gue happy banget, gue peluk - peluk, main sama dia, dan saat satu jam berakhir gue sedih bener. Udah 5 hari di RS dokter masih blom bolehin gue pulang karena gue blom bisa pipis, hidup gue tergantung pada suster - suster yang bakal masangin gue selang kalo gue mau pipis. Tapi sangking gue udah kuessel cuma ketemu anak gue 2 kali sehari, akhirnya gue nekat pulang tanpa selang yang nyantol dibadan gue!!! tapi di tangan gue ada anak gue yang lucu itu .... tapi tiba - tiba gue kayak baru dibangunin dari tidur .... finally i realized this child isn't a doll !! emang seneng di RS, ketemu cuma mainn aja sama dia karena dia udah dikasih makan duluan dia ga pernah rewel.... tapi gimana MAINTENANCE-nya !!!! Gue ga punya botol susu karena gue pede banget bakal kasih ASI, ga tau kapan ngasih makannya, ga tau berapa banyak harus kasih makannya, gimana cara cuci botolnya, ga tau gimana cara mandiinnya, ga tau gimana kalo dia ee / pipis, dan gue juga blon punya baby sitter atau orang yang bisa ngajarin gue ! Parah banget ! udah gue musti makan ayam arak tiap hari .... X( kacau meracau banget !!! gue inget itu bener - bener saat hectic dalam hidup gue.

Saat akhirnya keadaan sudah lebih terkendali sama baby... gue akhirnya sadar lagi kalo gue blon pipis dari pulang rs (udah sekitar 6 jam)! parahhh ...padahal gue dah berusaha batesin minum, tapi tetep aja kebelet pipis ! Gimana pipisnya kalo ga ada suster - suster yang masangin gue selang ???? HAAA, akhirnya gue suruh laki gue cari dan beli itu selang kateter yang dipake buat ngeluarin pipis. Laki gue sampe linglung sendiri pake acara nanya "buat apaan ?" dan setelah gue jelaskan dengan hormat bahwa gue bakal pakein sendiri itu selang supaya gue bisa mengeluarkan itu yang namanya urine ... dia shock gitu, dan hampir aja ga kasih .... tapi dia kaga punya pilihan laen .... mati aja kalo ga ngasih. Kateternya akhirnya dapet, dan dengan segala kesusahan yang ada akhirnya gue bisa make itu kateter sendiri !!! (mo gue jelasin detail kejadiannya ??? huehehehe). Setelah keadan mulai terkendali (gue dah lumayan ahli pasang kateter sendiri), besoknya gue ke dokter ... dan dokternya juga ikut shock bahwa gue bisa masang kateter sendiri, dia bilang kalo dia punya banyak pasien yang penyakitnya kayak gue tapi ga ada yang se-nekat (atau dalam hatinya se-tolol) gue, dan gue juga akhirnya ikut shock kalo gue bisa lakukan hal senekat itu!!! Bener - bener seorang anak bayi bisa buat seorang ibu jadi nekat !

3. Pertama kali move out untuk membentuk keluarga gue sendiri, selama ini gue masih tinggal sama nyokap gue biarpun udah merit, jadinya enak, pulang kerja tinggal makan, baju ada yang cuciin, cape tinggal tidur. Setelah gue pisah dari dia gue bener - bener nggak bisa handle apa - apa ... nyokap gue emang orang paling hebat sedunia !!! Thanx mom ! Harus beli perabotan ini beli perabotan itu, mo makan apa (padahal gue kaga bisa masak!), bayar listrik bayar aer bayar iuran, mo belanja apa buat suami ama anak, ah kacauuu meracauuu dah!!!!

Seperjalanan hidup gue yang jelas blon berakhir ini pasti ada pertama kali yang lainnya, semoga aja gue, yang udah mendeclare diri sebagai mature person ... hehehehe, bisa berpikir panjang di situasi dan kondisi "pertama kali" mendatang.

Belajar makeover

Lagi iseng nih, so gue mo cobain aja ah trik - trik dari buku make-up yang kemaren gue beli.


1. Gue coba trik yang buat supaya muka gue tuh ga tembebembembem gitu, kira - kira berhasil ga ya ? kalo kata emak gue sih berhasil, idungnya jadi mengecil juga ... bener ga sih ...hihihihi ... *mokal mode on*
2. Sekarang gue mau coba main di mata ... gabungin warna purple dan pink, jadinya :

Alat - alat yang gue pake :

Halah .... lupa sama foundationnya, sebenernya harus ada foundation yang warnanya lebih gelap untuk nutupin bagian pipi, tapi karena gue ga ada, so gue pake NYX blushon - kafe aja deh.
