Percakapan suami istri di suatu Senin pagi yang galau karena super iri liat Aidil masih pake kaos dan celana tidur while nganterin gw kerja dalam cuaca yang sungguh wueenakk buat golar goler di kasuuur.
"Aidil, aku capek kerja.. Mau di rumah aja boleh gak?"
"Terus mau jadi ibu rumah tangga aja?"
"Iya tapi yg produktif. Jadi makeup artist, freelancer atau jualan makanan lagi ajah.."
"Yaudah, nanti kita gantian aja yah. Aku kantoran kamu freelance lagi aja.."
"Beneran?"
"Iyah, makanya doain aku cepet dapet kerja.."
Ah suami aku manish banget sih bikin pengen puter balik pulang gak jadi ngantor :p
Sekarang lagi masuk fase super males kerja (lagi). Sebenernya emang pada dasarnya gw gak cocok kerja kantoran. Gak suka disuruh ngelakuin hal yang gw gak suka (macem competitor review yg udah seminggu gak kelar-kelaar :p), gak suka punya bos, gak suka duduk di kantor berjam-jam, gak suka rutinitas, gak suka ini itu banyak syekali. Hahah. Kedengerannya ndoro banget gak sih? Tapi bukan gitu kok sungguhh.. Gw tuh dibesarkan di tengah keluarga yg bukan pegawai. Bokap gw pernah kerja di perusahaan sih, tapi gak lama beliau cabut dan bikin usaha sendiri sama temennya. Kalau nyokap, dari lulus kuliah emang gak pernah nyicipin jadi pegawai. Langsung dipersunting bapake dan diboyong ke Jogja soalnya, dan pas kita balik ke Jakarta di umur gw 5 taun, nyokap diajak temennya ikutan MLM yang bertahan sampai.......sekarang. 20 TAHUUN! *ala ibune Kiki Fatmala* Hahaha. Jadilaaah anaknya ini terbiasa liat ibune siang-siang nge-mall tapi penghasilan ngalir terooosss. Beberapa kali diracunin sih untuk masuk MLM aja kaya doi. Nehi! Gak bakat bok!
Tapi Alhamdulillah suami manish super pengertian itu gak nuntut gw untuk kerja. Dengan catatan, lifestyle harus disesuaikan! Nahhh itu diaaaaaa yang bikin dilema dijeeehh. Apakah aku shanggup freelance lagi setelah terlena dengan gaji selama hampir 2 taun ini? Nanti masih bisa beli makeup tiap bulan gak yaaah? Masih bisa makan enak tiap weekend gak? Masih bisa nabung 50% dari penghasilan sebulaaan gaakk? Akkkk aku galaaauuuu :((

Bertukar selera
Sebenernya gw dan suami itu punya banyaaak banget persamaan. Mungkin karena zodiak (Leo.red) dan daerah asal kami yg sama (Makassar.red) yang bikin pola pikir, watak, hubungan dengan keluarga dan gaya hidup kita bisa plek ketiplek sama. Sama-sama berasal dari keluarga besaar, sama-sama gak doyan party doyannya ngonser atau ngegig, sama-sama gengsi setinggi langit, sama-sama gak suka ngobrol sm orang dominan, sama-sama suka gak PD cenderung minder, insecure dan pencemburu kelas kakap, de el el.
Sampai ke hal-hal aneh yang kita anggep ajaib selama ini pun ternyata samak! Contohnya. Gw tuh dari dulu setiap ketemu sm orang trus ngerasa obrolan nya kurang lancar atau ngerasa ada kata-kata yg seharusnya gak diomongin atau prilaku yg menurut gw aneh tuh pulangnya suka uring-uringan super. Padahal gak penting dan bukan sesuatu yg offended gitu sih. Mungkin orang itu aja malah gak mikir ada sesuatu yang aneh tapi kayanya tuh pengen ngulang waktu dan revisi pertemuan tadi biar jadi lebih mulus. Nah, trus yah gw tuh sering banget lagi diem gitu tiba-tiba langsung teriak "ah!" atau "ck!" atau "adoohh!" kalau tetiba keinget momen-momen yg pingin direvisi itu. Sampe orang sekitar biasanya kaget dan langsung nanya "ada apaaa?". Kalau udah gitu gw biasanya cuma cengengesan "enggak kok lagi keinget sesuatu aja" yg selalu bikin mereka keki. Hahaha. Aneh kaaan? Tapi pas ngobrol sm Aidil soal ini, ternyata dia jugakk! Percis cis cis. Jadi setiap gw atau dia ketemu orang dan pulangnya uring-uringan pasti udah saling ngerti dan nanya "kenapa? pengen direvisi yah ketemuan sm si "x" tadi?" abis itu bisa langsung jadi pembahasan panjaang. "Iyaa! Tadi masa aku ngomong bla bla bla aneh banget kan?". Hahahah! .....dan masih banyak persamaan lainnya.
Tapi di luar persamaan itu, kita punya banyaaaak banget perbedaan selera. Kalau selera musik sih sebenernya mirip-mirip lah yah. Sama-sama sok anti mainstream. Hahah. Tapi bedanya dia bisa nerima musik gw macem swedish pop, folks atau noise pop yg walaupun berisik tapi masih ada nada buat dinyanyiin gitu, sedangkan gw gak bisa masuk sm semua musik doi. Apalagi musik band doi yg super noise dengan efek-efek yg bikin gw setiap abis nonton mereka live langsung budeg!
Nah, kalau selera film juga gitu. Aidil masih bisa masuk lah sm film-film gw. Gw tuh sukaaaaa bgt film psychological thriller. Film-film twist yg bikin nebak endingnya. Kalau film indonesia tuh, film-film nya Joko Anwar lah. Drama juga suka sih tapi bukan yg terlalu menye-menye cem twilight gicu. Drama nya lebih ke "Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind", "Just Like Heaven", "Her", "About Time" gitu lah. Trus gw juga sukaa bgt film horror. Paranormal Activity series, Insidious, The Conjuring, you named it! Semuanya udah gw libasss! Nah, sebenernya sebelum pacaran sm akiks, Aidil gak terlalu doyan nonton horor, tapi karna gw ajak cenderung maksa lama-lama doi ketagihan. Malah sering ngajak nonton film horror duluan. Sebaliknya, gw tuh susahhhh banget bisa menikmati film-film doi. Aidil tuh yah suka banget hero movies macem Batman, Spiderman, Harry Potter, Lord of The Ring, Transformer, dan film-film action box office lainnya. Gw suruh nonton gituan? NEHI! Mending suruh nontonin kucing kawin deh! Gak selera. Pernah maksain nemenin Aidil nonton Transformer dan Harry Potter hasilnya? TIDOORRR! Hahaha. Jadilah Aidil nyerah dan males ngajak gw nonton film-film itu lagi. "Ntar download aja deh!" katanya. *ups gak boleh dicontoh yah kegiatan bajak membajak ini dikadik :p
Perbedaan selera yg mendasar antara gw dan suamik itu adalah... selera makan! Aslih dulu jaman pacaran sering beneur berantem perkara makanan. Sebenernya yg ribet soal makanan sih gw. Doi mah tipe apapun makanannya hajarr asaaaaaal gak pedes. Menurut Aidil, rasa pedes itu merusak rasa makanan itu sendiri. Beda banget sm gw yg apaa juga kudu dipakein sambel. Bikin pasta aja gw pakein cabe rawit 10 bijik. Hahah. Trus bedanya lagi Aidil tuh sukaaa bgt makanan manis-manis kaya coklat cake-cake an gitu lah. Sedangkan gueh? Makan manis dikit bisa langsung pusing. Boro-boro coklat. Aku anaknya savory banget gitu kakak!
Eh entah kenapa yah bok,mungkin karna udah sering bertukar cairan sekarang kita jadi bertukar selera. Belakangan ini gw lagi suka banget bikin cake atau snack yg manismanis. Komentar Aidil selalu "kemanisan ah" pdahal menurut gw biasa ajah tuh masih manisan akyuu *dilempar jumroh rame-rame*. Trus gw malah jadi sering kepingin makan manis macem kek kek an atau hot chocolate walaupun teteup doyannya dipakein sea salt sih..
Vice versa!
Beberapa hari lalu bokap gw bawa setoples sambel roa super puedes oleh-oleh dari temen kantornya. Eh si suami makan nasi pake sambel roa lahaapp banget kaya gak pernah dikasih makan sm istri. Hahah. Sambelnya bersendok-sendok pulak! Trus pagi ini juga gitu. Doi makan mie instant pake sambel kuning Makassar yg pedesnya bikin pengen ngomong jorok! 1 sendok ajaa udah bikin bibir jontor, lah ini dia ngambil bersendok-sendok dan masih ngerasa kurang pedes. Ajaib memang!
Next apalagi nih yg bisa bertukar? Bertukar skill bisa gak sih? Gw yg gak punya skill apapun ini kadang suka iri sm doi yang diberkahi skill banyak beneurr sm Allah. Skill ngedit video kek gitu biar gw juga gak perlu kerja kantoran. Hihi :p

Talking about rsponsible
Udah sebulan terakhir ini cuaca ibu kota tercinca sungguh cuddlingable, tidurlagiable dan gakkerjaable. Di kantor rasa-rasanya tiap hari adaaaaa aja yang gak masuk. Terutama team sendiri. Mulai dari team AE sm team creative. Ya sakit lah kebanjiran lah stuck di jalan gara-gara banjir lah endebrayendebrey.
Gue? Gak ada alasan buat absent jadi... YA MASUK TERUS DOOONGG :"))
Pertama, alhamdulillah sejak pindah ke kawasan Cilandak 6 tahun lalu udah gak pernah ngerasain banjir. Gak bermaksud jumawa loh yah mentemen yang kena musibah banjir. Tapi.. belasan tahun tinggal di Grogol yang tiap tahun banjir (iya tiap tahun bukan 5 taun sekali) boleh bersyukur dikit kan akhirnya bebas?
Kedua, alhamdulillahnya lagi.. ini badan sistem imun nya lagi bekerja dengan amat baik. Jadi walau badai ujan deres menghadang serta virus bertebaran di mana-mana ini badan segar bugar aja. Masuk angin gak diitung yah secara itu penyakit sehari-hari ujan gak ujan :))
Ketiga, banyak kerjaan kakaaakk. Pas banget lagi banjir di mana-mana eh kok ya client juga lagi ada campaign besar. Berhubung satu team cuma 2 bos gw dan gw jadilaaahh kerjaan tiada ujung.
Keempat.. nah sebenernya point ini yang pengen gw bahas. Entah kenapa yah.. gw tuh bukan tipe yang bisa gampang bolos kerja gitu lohhh *ngarep dibaca HRD biar naik gaji*. Hahaha. Tapi beneran.. sungguh ini nyata adanya. Setiap udah diniatin nih yah "ah besok bolos ah males ngantor" tapi pasti ujung-ujungnya ngantor maning ngantor maning. PASTI. Rasanya mau bolos tuh pertimbangannya banyak banget.. "Kalau gw gak masuk nanti ini gimana yah.. itu ada yang urus gak yah? eh salah deh kayanya kalau bolos" begituuuu terus setiap niat bolos. Padahal gw tuh bukan tipe yg workaholic gitu loh. Gw hanya karyawan biasa yang kalau weekend rasanya hidup ini indah penuh bunga, selalu galau tiap menyambut Senin, selalu girang kalau bisa pulang saat langit masih terang, ngeluh kalau lembur, pokoknya di luar masalah bolos membolos ini gw karyawan pada umumnya banget deh!
Anyway, sebenarnya gw gak pernah sadar hal ini sampe akhirnya bos gw di kantor lama bilang gini pas gw resign karna mau kewong "gila yah selama 9 bulan lo kerja di sini, gw gak pernah liat lo gak masuk sekali pun. 9 bulan loh!". Pas dibilangin gitu gw malah gak percaya "masaaaa sikkkkk gak pernah absent sekali puun?" Dan setelah diinget-inget.. emang gak pernah pemirsa! Okay, now you can call me freak. Haha!
Sampai pernah nih yaah suatu hari ujan deres banget dan liat di socmed di mana-mana udah banjir. Akhirnya niat bilang ke suami "aku gak masuk aja deh hari ini. mending kruntelan aja sama kamu" *ahem maklum pengantin baru kak*. Tapi terus dia yang tau banget tabiat gw ini nanya "yakin gak masuk?". Hihh gimana sih suamik udah tau istrinya anaknya susah bolos sekalinya niat malah ditanya gini. Akhirnya memutuskan "Yaudah gini aja, kalau nanti jalanan ke kantor macet, kita puter balik aja aku gak masuk!". Dalam hati mikir "ya pasti macet lahh orang ujan deres gini". Eh jalanannyaaa lancaaar aja lohhhh. Why universe whyyy? Kok kayanya aku gak diijinin amat bolos kantor? Aidil sampe nyesel pake nanya "yakin?" segala. Pokoknya semua salahnyaa Aidiiiillll! :)))
Padahal yah kalau dipikir-pikir hari itu bisa banget pake sejuta alasan buat bolos. Tapi kok yaaa hati ini kaya gak tenang gicuuuu. Eh sampe kantor ternyata kantor sepiii bingits. Bos pun tak adaa. Semua alesannya template.. banjir di mana-mana. Hihh! Kalau udah gini suka super nyeseeel masuk kantor*cubit gemes hati sendiri* Lah bos-bos aja bisa tuh santai gak masuk di saat load kerjaan lagi menggila, kok gueh yg cuma kacung kampret gini sok-sokan resah. Cih!
Puncaknya sih hari ini. Setelah beberapa minggu ini cuaca mulai cerah dan banjir-banjir pun mulai surut, hari ini blarrrr dari tengah malem gak sante amaat ujannya cing! Seperti biasa bangun dengan pikiran "gak mau kerjaaaaaa" tapi ujung-ujungnya berangkat jugak walaupun agak siang. Di jalan si bos sms "kalau sampai kantor kabarin aku yah, I need your help". Duh, perasaan mulai gak enak.
Sampe kantor..... SEPI AMAAAT!
Jadi yah bos gw ini membawahi client services untuk 3 brand. Nah hari ini doi pleus seluruh ani ani koci nya gak ada yg masuk dong. Gw doang yg masuk malihhh. Sesuai perintah akhirnya gw tilpun lah doi. Dan benar sajaaa.. doi minta bantuan gw untuk nyiapin file pitching yang mega penting dari salah satu brand yg doi pegang dan tolong digaris bawahi, bukan brand gueh. Dan yg bikin extra kesyeul doi gak masuk karna stuck di jalan 1 jam. Kok bisaaa sihhhh ninggalin kerjaan mega penting giniiii dengan alasan cengceremet macam stuck di jalan. Gw pernah stuck 3 jam di jalan tapi sampe aja tuhh ke kantor. Bukannya gak mau direpotin sih tapi kaaan gw jadi repooot #loh. Hahaha.
Yastralaahh! Kayanya emang gw gak bakat bolos dari jaman sekolah. Ambil aja sisi positifnya. At least berarti gw anaknya bertanggungjawab kan yah? *boleh ditaro CV atau profile linked in gak sih nih? :p
Atau.. mungkin gw ke brainwashed lagu ini waktu kecil.
Who knows?

To my 1st love...
Pagi ini seperti biasa gw keluar kamar jam 8 kurang setelah selesai mandi dan beres-beres.
Bedanya, kali ini gak pake dibombardir Papa ala militer. Biasanya yah bok, dari jam 7 pagi doi udah heboh gedor-gedor pintu kamar suruh gw siap-siap dengan pesan yang template setiap harinya soal nanti dia telat yada yada yada kalau lama ditinggal yada yada yada... yang selalu gw abaikan karena yakin selama apapun gw siap-siap toh dia selalu nungguin (even pake ngedumel pleus misuh misuh :p).
Keluar kamar biasanya gw disambut Papa yang udah rapi dengan muka kusyut. Pagi ini tumbenan keluar kamar liat Papa masih pake kaos dan celana pendek rumah dan masih sibuk oles-oles roti pake selai.
Huhuu. Manish amat bapak gw nyiapin sarapan while anaknya yg kurang ajyar ini malah nyuruh buru-buru. Merasa bersalah :( *mata ngembeng*
Dalam hati pun bilang yastralah jam 8.30 aja berangkatnya kasian kalo Papa buru-buru.
Tapi nama pun bapake yakaaan, tak disangka tak dinyana jam 8 doi udah rapih buru-buru pake sepatu sambil teteup ngomel bilang "ayo berangkat katanya kamu ada kerjaan?!" lah kok jadi galakan deseu . Hahahah.
Selama perjalanan pun mikir. Setiap gw harus berangkat pagi, Papa selalu yang lebih heboh buru-buru dan ngusahain banget biar anaknya gak telat. Tapi giliran Papa yang minta gw buru-buru, gw santai-santai aja gitu. Dalam pikiran gw selalu "ah pasti ditungguin tidur lagi ah 10 menit". Padahal, mungkin doi beneran ada meeting atau keperluan lain yg bikin dia harus buru-buru, tapi gak mau ninggalin gw jadi terpaksa nunggu sebentar walaupun dengan marah-marah. Sering banget di jalan Papa nelfon orang kantor dan bilang dateng agak telat gara-gara gw. Huhuu.. *liat Papa yg lagi nyetir* *mata ngembeng lagi*
Sadar gak sadar sih sebagai anak kita emang lebih banyak mentingin kepentingan pribadi even itu hal simple *kita? lo aja kaleee Nda!* sedangkan mereka, para orang tua selalu nduluin kepentingan anaknya di atas kepentingan mereka bahkan sejak anaknya belum mbrojol.
Maaf yah Pah sering bikin senewen pagi-pagi. Makasih karna Papa selalu nungguin aku selama apapun aku siap-siap walaupun lagi ada meeting. Mungkin aku baru bener-bener bisa ngerti kalau udah jadi orang tua juga kali yah, Pah. but at least, kejadian pagi ini bikin aku sadar untuk lebih menghargai kepentingan orang lain. Sehat-sehat yah, Pah. Biar anak-anak aku nanti bisa ketemu laki-laki terhebat yang pernah aku punya.

Me: Loh, kok belum mandi Pah? Emang gak kerja?
Him: Kerja kok. Bentar.. lagi bikin roti.
Me: Oh, soalnya aku mau berangkat jam 8 nih ada kerjaan.
Him: *liat jam* ini udah kok rotinya tinggal di bakar.
Me: Yaudah sekalian aku juga mau bikin roti.
Him: Gak usah, itu kan roti buat kamu *sambil buru-buru ngeloyor mandi*
Huhuu. Manish amat bapak gw nyiapin sarapan while anaknya yg kurang ajyar ini malah nyuruh buru-buru. Merasa bersalah :( *mata ngembeng*

KISMIS. Kisah Misterius!
Kisah misterius ini bermula di hari Senin tanggal 4 February 2013.
Begini ceritanya... Auuuuum! *kemudian di santet Caroline Zachrie*
Pagi itu seperti biasa gw dateng lebih awal dari bos a.k.a partner se-cubicle gw, Mba Dyah. Kebetulan gw lagi ada masalah dan lagi drama-dramaan via telfon sama nyokap. Lalu datanglah Mba Dyah dengan cheerful nya yang khas menyapa gw. Karena lagi telfonan, gw cuma bales sekenanya. Tiba-tiba beberapa menit kemudian deseu mulai grasak grusuk. Gw yang saat itu lagi serius ngomong sama nyokap pun gak ter-distract. Abis gw tutup telepon nyokap, gw mulai bingung ini orang-orang kenapa pada ngeriung di cubicle gw? Dan dengan polosnya gw nanya "Ada apose sih nih heboh banget?". "Mac gw ilaaaangggggg Gyy! Gw udah heboh sana sini jugak. Tadi gw tanyain berkali-kali lo nyuekin gw" loh loh deseu langsung merepet panjang sementara akiks masih bengong. Masa sih seheboh itu dan gw gak sadar? *yak, another bukti kalau gw anaknya gak multitasking!*. Begitu sadar langsung lah gw ikutan heboh geledah laci-laci, kolong meja, dll yang ternyata udah digeledah dari tadi selama gw telfonan. Deuh.. Basi deh yeiy! *toyor diri sendiri*
Eh anyway, Mac yang dimaksud ini laptop yah bok bukan make up. Kalau make up mungkin akan lebih heboh dari ini secara kita beduaan hobby dendong *loh*. Hahahah! Oke lanjuts. Setelah semua laci udah digeledah, Mba Dyah minta tolong dianterin pulang ke rumah. Walaupun dia inget banget kalau tuh laptop ditinggal di kantor tapi yaa siapa tau aja dia ngelindur malem-malem jalan sendiri ke kantor bawa laptop kan? Kita pun langsung cus berangkat ke rumah Mba Dyah.. Untung rumahnya di Kebagusan yang gak jauh dari kantor. Kalau rumahnya di Priok atau Bekasi sih mending relain aja deh itu laptop *lalu dikeplak Mba boss*.
Sampai di rumahnya, Mba Dyah langsung ngacir grasak grusuk bongkar rumah nyari seonggok laptop yang entah di mana keberadaannya. Eh, udah ditungguin lama keluar dari rumah deseu cuma bawa semangkok jelly chocolate ajah instead of bawa si laptop buronan itu. Lah Mba, laptop-nya piyeh? Ternyata setelah ngubek seisi rumah gak nemu juga.. Yang nemu malah jelly-jelly iku di dapur. Hahaha sempet aja loh. Jadilah kita pulang ke kantor dengan tangan hampa dan perut yang juga hampa karena belum makan siang. Akhirnya kita mampir makan dulu sambil mikir langkah selanjutnya *tsaelah*. Berhentilah kita di Soto Ayam Barokah Buncit yang konon katanya enak banget dan pada kenyataannya.... biasa aja! Bezzz.. Mungkin karena makannya sambil panik bin tegang jadi kalau kita makan hati angsa yang harganya bisa buat beli laptop baru pun akan berasa sendal jepit :p
Setelah perut kenyang barulah kita bisa mikir dengan jernih harus berbuat apa. Ditengah kepanikan dan keseriusan kita mikir, tetiba si Mba Dyah nyeletuk dengan muka super serius "Apa gw ke dukunnya Nazar sm Muzdalifah aja yah? Anak ilang aja bisa ketemu apalagi laptop doang!" Huahahhahah. Here comes the korban infotainment -_-"
Sampai di kantor, Mba Dyah langsung email resmi ke pihak HRD perkara laptop-nya yang ilang dan minta tolong untuk tracking CCTV. Dan namanya juga kantor ahensi yang orangnya seiprit doang, tersebarlah berita itu ke seluruh penjuru kantor dan lumayan bikin heboh. Kenapa heboh? Karena kehilangan kayak gini baru kejadian sekali. Selama bertahun-tahun orang geletakin laptop di kantor gak pernah ilang. Si Mba Dyah pun selama ini suka selebor ninggal laptop tapi ya aman-aman aja sampai hari ini. Sebenernya doi gak mau bikin heboh juga karena kasian sama para OB yang pasti bakal di interogasi duluan. Kita berdua sih yakin banget bukan salah satu OB yang ngambil secara mereka udah puluhan tahun kerja di sini. Bahkan, believe it or not, ada salah satu OB yang megang rekening buat kirim gaji kita SEKANTOR saking udah dipercayanya sama owner. Lah, wong owner aja percaya moso kita yang masih kacung kampret gini mau curiga sama mereka :") *peluk Pak Pardjan, Mas Isak, Kang Enon*
Yak, lanjut!
Jadi, selama CCTV itu diproses yang katanya prosesnya semalem suntuk, gw dan Mbak Dyah gak sabar dan jadi musryik nanya-nanya sama temen yang "sakti" ( bukaan, bukan dukunnya Nazar Muzdalifah kok :p) Sang temen sakti bilang laptopnya masih ada di sekitar kita. Nahloh tambah bingung! Akhirnya dari pada bingung kita memutuskan untuk killing time nontonin make up tutorial di youtube *kerja kalee woooyy!*. Hahah. Eh tapi percaya deh di akhir cerita akan ada hikmah dari nonton youtube ini. Just keep reading.. Hahah! Jadii.. gw tuh kalau nonton video atau dengerin lagu di komputer kantor pake headphone. Nah, berhubung kita mau nonton bareng jadi kita nyari keberadaan earphone biar bisa dengerin berdua. Dan, disinilah puncak kehebohan hari itu..
JENG JENG JENG!
Pas lagi nyari si earphone di dalam laci, tetiba gw ngeliat seonggok benda yang tidak asing. Dan yak benar! LAPTOP NYA ADA DONGG tergeletak manis tak berdaya. Padahal ini laci udah kita geledah bareng-bareng tadi dan gak ada apa-apa. Aselih. Kenapa sekarang dia nangkring di sini secara misterius? MAGIC!! Ternyata di kantor ini ada bakat pesulap yang terpendam *prok prok prok*. Gw dan Mba Dyah sontak freeze liat-liatan beberapa detik saking shocknya ala-ala sinetron stripping gicu deh. Abis itu Mba Dyah langsung lari ke ruang HRD dan lapor kalau laptopnya tetiba datang tanpa dijemput. Orang-orang HRD pun pada dateng ke meja kita. Asyemnya, kita balik diintrogasi dipikir lagi becanda cari sensasi. BOK! Cukup Jupe sama Depe aja deh yang hobby cari sensasi. Kita mah gak mau ikutan bersaing, udah pasti kalah pamor, cyin! Kalau bikin sensasi di kantor bisa bikin naik gaji 10 kali lipat mah, sekalian aja harga diri nih yang diilangin bukan sekedar laptop *deuh.. emang stock harga diri situ masih banyak, Sist? :p*
Well, walaupun kita sempet dituduh becanda yang super LUCU ini, geng HRD tetap ngelanjutkeun kasak kusuk investigasi kok sampai sekarang. Soalnya, yang kaya gini harus dikasih warning berat. Entah apapun tujuannya yah.. Ada yang bilang mungkin awalnya becanda tapi gak nyangka dampaknya jadi gede, ada yang bilang mungkin udah sempet dibawa ke penadah tapi karena itu laptop kantor yang di lock jadi gak laku, ada yang bilang dia belum sempet jual tapi karena tau lagi diusut trus takut trus dibalikin deh, and so on and so on.. Gw pun sampai sekarang masih wondering siapa orang dibalik kehebohan hari ini..
Pencuri? Pesulap? Atau jangan-jangan.... bukan manusia?
Kita tunggu kelanjutannya.. *zoom in - zoom out*
Begini ceritanya... Auuuuum! *kemudian di santet Caroline Zachrie*
Pagi itu seperti biasa gw dateng lebih awal dari bos a.k.a partner se-cubicle gw, Mba Dyah. Kebetulan gw lagi ada masalah dan lagi drama-dramaan via telfon sama nyokap. Lalu datanglah Mba Dyah dengan cheerful nya yang khas menyapa gw. Karena lagi telfonan, gw cuma bales sekenanya. Tiba-tiba beberapa menit kemudian deseu mulai grasak grusuk. Gw yang saat itu lagi serius ngomong sama nyokap pun gak ter-distract. Abis gw tutup telepon nyokap, gw mulai bingung ini orang-orang kenapa pada ngeriung di cubicle gw? Dan dengan polosnya gw nanya "Ada apose sih nih heboh banget?". "Mac gw ilaaaangggggg Gyy! Gw udah heboh sana sini jugak. Tadi gw tanyain berkali-kali lo nyuekin gw" loh loh deseu langsung merepet panjang sementara akiks masih bengong. Masa sih seheboh itu dan gw gak sadar? *yak, another bukti kalau gw anaknya gak multitasking!*. Begitu sadar langsung lah gw ikutan heboh geledah laci-laci, kolong meja, dll yang ternyata udah digeledah dari tadi selama gw telfonan. Deuh.. Basi deh yeiy! *toyor diri sendiri*
Eh anyway, Mac yang dimaksud ini laptop yah bok bukan make up. Kalau make up mungkin akan lebih heboh dari ini secara kita beduaan hobby dendong *loh*. Hahahah! Oke lanjuts. Setelah semua laci udah digeledah, Mba Dyah minta tolong dianterin pulang ke rumah. Walaupun dia inget banget kalau tuh laptop ditinggal di kantor tapi yaa siapa tau aja dia ngelindur malem-malem jalan sendiri ke kantor bawa laptop kan? Kita pun langsung cus berangkat ke rumah Mba Dyah.. Untung rumahnya di Kebagusan yang gak jauh dari kantor. Kalau rumahnya di Priok atau Bekasi sih mending relain aja deh itu laptop *lalu dikeplak Mba boss*.
Sampai di rumahnya, Mba Dyah langsung ngacir grasak grusuk bongkar rumah nyari seonggok laptop yang entah di mana keberadaannya. Eh, udah ditungguin lama keluar dari rumah deseu cuma bawa semangkok jelly chocolate ajah instead of bawa si laptop buronan itu. Lah Mba, laptop-nya piyeh? Ternyata setelah ngubek seisi rumah gak nemu juga.. Yang nemu malah jelly-jelly iku di dapur. Hahaha sempet aja loh. Jadilah kita pulang ke kantor dengan tangan hampa dan perut yang juga hampa karena belum makan siang. Akhirnya kita mampir makan dulu sambil mikir langkah selanjutnya *tsaelah*. Berhentilah kita di Soto Ayam Barokah Buncit yang konon katanya enak banget dan pada kenyataannya.... biasa aja! Bezzz.. Mungkin karena makannya sambil panik bin tegang jadi kalau kita makan hati angsa yang harganya bisa buat beli laptop baru pun akan berasa sendal jepit :p
Setelah perut kenyang barulah kita bisa mikir dengan jernih harus berbuat apa. Ditengah kepanikan dan keseriusan kita mikir, tetiba si Mba Dyah nyeletuk dengan muka super serius "Apa gw ke dukunnya Nazar sm Muzdalifah aja yah? Anak ilang aja bisa ketemu apalagi laptop doang!" Huahahhahah. Here comes the korban infotainment -_-"
Sampai di kantor, Mba Dyah langsung email resmi ke pihak HRD perkara laptop-nya yang ilang dan minta tolong untuk tracking CCTV. Dan namanya juga kantor ahensi yang orangnya seiprit doang, tersebarlah berita itu ke seluruh penjuru kantor dan lumayan bikin heboh. Kenapa heboh? Karena kehilangan kayak gini baru kejadian sekali.

HEYHO 2013!
"Hastagah udah 2013 aja nih? Buru-buru amat sikk? Aku aja belum dilamar-lamar :("
Begitulah sekiranya hal pertama yang melintas di otak gw dan mungkin.. mungkin loh yah.. perempuan-yang-memasuki-umur-ngebet-nikah lainnya di hari pertama 2013. Who's with me? *ngebet kawin aja kok ya nyari massa sih Nda :p*
Anddd... speaking about umur ngebet nikah, this year tepatnya bulan Agustus insyaAllah I'll turn 25. Which is umur target nikah bagi sebagian besar perempuan Indonesah. Bahkan yah dari jaman gw piyik masih pake miniset kalau ditanya mau nikah umur berapa sama temen sekolah dengan lantang gw jawab DUA LIMA! Padahal pas ditanya cita-cita mau jadi apa aja masih garuk-garuk kepala a.k.a bingung. Hahahah. Bakat genit ternyata sudah terpupuk sejak dini yah bok. Eh, sekarang giliran udah mau 25 malah panik. Tapi alhamdulillah-nya sih udah bukan panik nyari pacar. Karena pacar-manis-baik-hati-yang-insyaAllah-jodoh nya udah tersedia depan mata. Nah, trus nunggu apa lagi donggg? Hhhhhhh.. kalo dijawab gak akan cukup dalam satu blog post deh! *lebeh*. Mohon doanya aja yah pemirsahhh biar cita-cita sejak kecil terwujud.. *teriak AMIN super kenceng*
Anyway, kemana aja si neng Gyanda dari bulan April 2012 baru nge-post lagi? Well.. blog ini kan emang sengaja dibuat sebagai yearly journal bukan monthly apalagi weekly. Hahaha ngeles! Tapi aselih, aku kagum banget sama kalian para blogger yang bisa konsisten rajin update blog. Apa sih rahasianyaaa? Gw kok baru beberapa bulan rajin update terusss dua minggu, sebulan, dua bulan, setahun kemudian lupaa kalau masih punya blog. Mihihi. Padahal sering banget loh nemuin moment dan mikir "Mau gw tulis di blog ah nanti!" tapi sampe rumah....LUPA! Bezzzz. Malah si Path lah yang sering jadi tempat cerita-cerita kejadian unik, sedih, dan lucu. Walaupun gak sepuas cerita di blog sih yah. Nah, gegara hal itu juga lah akhirnya gw membuka kembali blog usang tak terurus ini. Kalau diibaratkan rumah, blog ini udah banyak debu dan sarang laba-laba nya kali yeee :))
Eh, sampe mana tadi? Ohiyah.. beberapa hari yang lalu gw nge-post di Path cerita panjang soal moment banjir di Grogol (my old house), lalu salah satu sahabat kesayangan yang juga blogger, Sellyana comment "ceritain di blog dong Nda.." then muncul lah kembali hasrat nulisdi blog ini yang mudah-mudahan gak angot-angotan lagi yah :p
Long story short, sekarang si wanita yang (dulu) sangat menikmati hidupnya sebagai freelancer/entrepreneur ini sudah murtad jadi pegawai kantoran. Yes, things I used to hate back then. Being an employee, under company, having bosses, office hours, office bureaucracy and whatnot. And now I have to deal with that stuffs. Whattt? Kok isooo? Yah, kembali lagi.. realita cyin! Bukan karena income yang gw dapet dari hasil freelance gak cukup, tapi ada hal lain semacam insurance, credit card (ngajuin berkali-kali gak pernah di approve dengan alasan tidak punya pekerjaan tetap. Hiks!), dan steady income. Well, sebenernya yang terakhir adalah alasan utama sih. Berhubung Aidil, sang pacar juga entrepreneur/freelancer dan ehem.. kita punya niat serius, jadi salah satu harus ada yg ngalah dong! Nanti kalau insyaAllah jodoh dan berkeluarga trus punya anak (tsaahhh) kan butuh asuransi dan steady income pastinya. Jadi lah gw memutuskan untuk kerja kantoran di sebuah Advertising Ahensi multinasional di Pejaten (iya, salah satu alasan utama gw apply juga karena deket rumah! :p). Tapi kenapa gw? Kenapa bukan Aidil? Karena dia lagi merintis usaha yang notabene passion dia banget (videography.red) and he seems really happy :)
Anyway, setelah dijalankan ternyata gak seburuk yang gw kira kok. I do really enjoy it! Seruuu.. Bisa belajar banyak, adaptasi sama lingkungan baru, adaptasi sama birokrasi kantor yang ternyata naujubilah ribetnya yah bok, adaptasi sama nama panggilan baru "Gigie" dari Gyanda (Iyah gigi as in "untu" dalam bahasa Sunda) gegara mantan temen se-tim yang namanya "Anda" jugak *sigh*, ketemu orang baru, ketemu bos yang super asik yang udah kaya Ibu.. eh Kakak sendiri maksudnya *ditoyor Mba Dyah* and so on and so on..
Intinya..
I'm so happy with my current life! And hope you all feel the same way. So, 2013.. BRING IT ON!
Loves,
Andaw

First post in 2012 :)
Hello again!
Can't believe that it will be my first post in 2012. What month is it again? January? What? APRIL?
So, this blog never been updated for approx 4 months? Am I that busy? Busy my arse! Haha!
So here we go..
Well, I'm still a freelancer. No steady job yet and still happy this way anyway. So, I was not that busy. And where was I these whole 4 months? Stayed at the cave and did nothing? Absofuckinlutely no! It's vice versa! I feel so productive instead. Why? Because finally one of my biggest dream came true, running a little business of my own. Culinary business to be exact. Mamiri - The Indonesian Authentic Dessert specialized at Es Pisang Ijo. It's a home made and yes it's made by me with alittle lots of help from my partner Mbak Siti. Haha! I feel like I found my passion now. Never been working on something and felt this happy before. This is my dream.Working on my own. You know the feeling when people gave good responses and appreciations to Mamiri? I tell you, it's beyond happy! I feel the tingle in my tummy. Alhamdulillaaah :)
Anyway, Mamiri serves one of the finest Es Pisang Ijo in town *narsis dikit*. Taste it first and compare it to any other Es Pisang Ijo that you ever taste. Then you'll get what I meant :p
And beside running this little business what else did I do? Still the same.. Being a freelancer media relation/publicist. The new thing is I'm currently being a personal manager of Aryo Witjaksonoo, the Indonesia version of John Mayer. Oh, you can hear his upcoming single here *promo dikit :p* and a publicist of Darryl Wezy another local talented musician. Productive enough? Haha. I love my job anyway :)
That's a little update of the-long-lost me. Haha! It's good to be back :)

Welcome home Mom an Dad!
This post has been in my draft box since like 2 weeks ago. How come I didn't realize that I haven't even click the "publish post" button? KYAAAA! Basi luar biasah! Haha! Pardon this clumsy girl.. So here the expired story goes..
I can't even explained how excited I was when I got a text from my dearly Dad said that he'll be home on Friday. Hoaaaa! I just can't barely waitt! Aslik. Heran, dulu sering banget denger cerita temen yang girang serta bebas merdeka waktu ditinggal orang tua mereka naik haji. Yah, gak salah juga sih. The thing is, IT WASN'T HAPPENED TO ME! Entah gw yang berlebihan atau terlalu parno, tapi serius deh, how could you be that heartless to celebrate your freedom with party and stuffs while your parents are struggle and praying for you there? I don't know bout you, but I just can't! Setiap mau melakukan hal-hal yang gw tau mereka gak akan suka (yang bahkan disaat mereka di Jakarta sering gw lalukan), gw selalu kepikiran mereka lalu enggan melakukannya. In every single thing. Setiap gw mau melakukan sesuatu lantas terbesit di otak gw "kalau gw melakukan ini akan ada imbas nya untuk mereka di sana kah?". Mungkin karena gw terlalu sering mendengar cerita tentang Haji yang cenderung serem-serem kali yah? Sebelum mereka berangkat, ex asisten rumah tangga gw pernah cerita kalau temennya pernah bikin "party" besar-besaran waktu kedua orang tuanya naik Haji (Well, I don't know what kind of party it was. But I can't think of anything other than Dangdutan party. Slap me please!), dan akhirnya kedua orang tuanya kembali ke tanah air dalam keadaan kaki ter-amputasi. Naudzubillahimindzalik amit amit cabang baby. Serem kan, bok? Cerita-cerita kayak gini lah yang membebani gw dan serta merta bikin gw parno berlebihan. I love my parents to the bones and I don't wanna bad things happen to them while they're having their quality time with the Almighty Allah. More over if I'm the one who responsible for it. So for those who celebrate it as a freedom, I tell you, freedom my azz! Gw bahkan lebih terkekang dari pada saat mereka ada di Jakarta. Terkekang sama bathin gw sendiri. Terkekang sama boundaries yang gw ciptakan sendiri. Selama ini gw mungkin sering menganggap lalu omongan Nyokap "jangan takut sama Mama, takut sama Allah". Baru di saat beliau berjarak ribuan mil, gw bener-bener merasakan ini. I know my Mom and Dad would never see what I did here, but Allah did!
Akhirnya tibalah hari di mana orang tua gw dijadwaklan untuk pulang. Dari pagi bangun tidur udah super excited. Di SMS bokap bilang kalau mereka akan tiba jam 21.30 dengan pesawat Emirates di terminal 2D. Gw sengaja gak ke ruangrupa hari itu.. padahal kalau dipikir datengnya juga malem deh. Hahah. But as I told you, I was just too excited! Sang pacar baik hati pun udah siap di rumah dari jam 4 sore. Nenek juga udah sibuk masak-masak buat nyambut kedatangan mereka. Sayangnya, adik gw lagi sibuk magang dan gak bisa ikut jemput bokap nyokap. Sehabis Maghrib dan makan malam, gw, pacar dan nenek pun berangkat ke bandara secara itu hari Jumat dan jalanan pasti.. ah ya sudahlah gak usah diomongin. Dan benar sajaahh.. kita sampai di bandara paaaas banget jam 21.30. Gak salah si pacar bawel mau berangkat lebih awal. Sampai di sana gw langsung lari ke information board nge-cek apakah pesawat yang ditumpangi bokap nyokap sudah mendarat atau belum. Ternyata pesawat Emirates dari Dubai belum ada tanda-tanda mendarat dan yang bikin gw heran, gak ada info kalo itu delay juga. Huahhh, hati kembali cemas dan gelisah. Komat-kamit baca doa semoga pesawat nya baik-baik saja. Gw dan pacar gonta-ganti celingak celinguk liat apakah udah ada tanda-tanda kedatangan mereka. Dan akhirnya tepat di jam 10 malam, Mom and Dad landed safe and sound at Jakarta International Airport, Soekarno Hatta. Begitu melihat penampakan mereka keluar dari terminal kedatangan muka gw langsung sumringah diiringi ucapan syukur dalam hati.. Alhamdulillaah :D
Seperti orang pulang Haji pada umumnya, sepanjang perjalanan pulang bokap dan nyokap sibuk berbagi kisah-kisah mereka selama di sana. Kami (gw, pacar dan nenek) pun mendengarkan dengan excited. Dari semua kisah yang mereka ceritakan, yang bikin gw mau nangis adalah kisah tentang kecelakaan mereka.. Jadi di perjalanan mereka dari Mina - Mekkah (if I'm not mistaken), supir bis yang mereka tumpangi ngantuk dan bis pun menabrak beton pembatas jalan. Sisi kanan bis hancur. Bukan cuma itu, penumpang yang duduk di sisi kiri depan menjadi korban luka parah. Kaki nya hancur dan harus di operasi. Tangki bensin bis bocor dan kemungkinan bis meledak sangat besar. Alhamdulillah penumpang yang lain sempat di evakuasi. Hal yang bikin gw merinding adalah, nyokap dan bokap duduk di sisi kanan depan which is sangat dekat dengan korban. Bahkan darah korban masih menempel di tas nyokap. Lord, It could be happened to my parents. It was a near-to-death experience for them. But thank God, they're save and sound.. And I couldn't stop thanking God by saying Alahmdulillah silently :')
Dear The Almighty Allah, terima kasih karena Engkau telah mengabulkan doa-doa ku di setiap sholat ku untuk melindungi dan menjaga orang tua hamba selama di sana :')

Us vs Sea Games 2011: Part II
Promised to give you another story of Us vs Sea Games 2011 but it seems soo hard to find the mood to write. Pardon my swinging mood. But since the euphoria of Sea Games 2011 will end any soon, finally I write this following stories..
#1 Badminton Semifinal:
After the-super-failed-day on our first try to watch Sea Games live at GBK, we (me and boyfie) didn't give up and planned to watch Badminton semifinal at Istora Senayan. The first game started at 2.30pm. Plans: Aidil picks me up at my casa around 2pm and will arrived at GBK by 2.30pm or worst case 3pm. Fact: My slowlyloly Aidil arrived at mine at 3.30pm and due to the effing crazy traffic we arrived at 5.30pm. Classic. It was FRIDAY anyway. No need any explanation for this ya kaaan? Krr. As we get there, we went to the ticket box right away. The guys we met on our way to the tix box told us that Taufik Hidayat was the closing game of the semifinal that day. We asked them,
"So who's the one who currently play?".
"Taufik Hidayat", they replied.
Ngeh? "So do you mean that it's the last game today?"
"Yup. You better go back here tomorrow. Tomorrow is the final"
KYAAAA. Gagal maning gagal maning, son! Well, this time is our own fault anyway.
I asked Aidil, "Have you give up?". He said, "NO WAY! I have to watch the final tomorrow!" Haha. The boy was unyielding! :))
#2 Badminton Final:
As Aidil promised the day before, He planned to watch the final game at Istora and come earlier so that he could get the tix. Since I need to attend my regular discussion with my peer group called Dimensi Talk (will post about it later) that day, I couldn't be there with him. Plans that day: He buy me ticket at Istora, I'll be attending Dimensi Talk first and go to Istora afterwards, then we both go to TMII to attend my bestfriend's wedding. All arranged in such a way.. Suddenly, in the middle of my discussion, Aidil text me said that it didn't necessary for me to go there cause he couldn't get the ticket. ALL SOLD OUT. Geez. AGAIN? We failed again?? Seriously, what's wrong with youu Sea Games 2011? Why it seemed like we never destined to watch you live at GBK? Why? Why? Why? Aidil was sooooo upset. He wanted to watch it badly. Huhu. There was only one chance left, the football final: Indonesia vs Malaysia. I asked boyfie whether he still wanted to watch it at GBK or not? And surprisingly he said "I don't know. I feel like giving up". Hahah. The boy finally gave up!
We end up watched the game separately. Me with some mates at ruangrupa while Aidil watched it at his own room all alone. Turned out it was a lot more fun! Seriously! We watched it peacefully without the overcrowding thingy and worried about or own safety. Anyway, the game went really tight. Both team played great! But unfortunately, the football champion was given to Malaysia. I'm still thinking that it was just the luck considered that we lost by the penalty. And Garuda Muda still got my pride. They all another version of heroes, don't you think?
Anyway, I heard the sad news about Indonesia's supporters who passed away. They get trampled by thousands people at GBK. One of them is Reno Alvino the additional drummer of D.O.T band. My deep condolences goes out to the family. From this case, I realized that maybe we weren't destined to watch it live at GBK for our own sake. It could've be me or my boyfriend who get trampled by thousands of peoples there. I'm thanking you dear Almighty. Your plan is such a mystery.

Us vs Sea Games 2011: Part #1
If Sea Games 2011 and Us (me and boyfie) are analogous as a relationship, then we would never meant to be! I have no idea, what's with Sea Games and Us? What did we do wrong? Why the hell did you seem like hate us a looooot?
So, these past few days, Me and boyfie were really excited with this whole Sea Games thingies. I mean, it's a huge annual sports event involving 11 countries from ASEAN that held once in two years, did we have enough reasons to be THAT excited with this? Oh, and don't you think that this kinda event could lifted up people's nationality, instantly? I mean 150ish gold medals? 1st position beyond another 10 countries by far? What could you ask more to be a proud Indonesian? Me and boyfie were really proud to be the witness to the history. Oh well, don't you all feel the same way? And after these whole time been fairly satisfied to just watch it on TV, we planned to watch it live at GBK Senayan. You never know when will Indonesia get a turn to be an official host of Sea Games again, ayte? So, this is the time, this is our chance. Well, I used to watched it live when I was kid with my family but my poor boyfie never *puk puk*. Frankly, me and boyfie were just excited to watch badminton and football. Who's not anyway? :p
It was Thursday, 17th November when our national football team competed against our all-time-rival Malaysia. Boyfie got a ticket to watch it on GBK but unfortunately He just got one.. Then He planned to buy another tix for Me as we got there. We met at our campus after I've done my work at ruangrupa then went to GBK right away. It was a bit late actually and I was doubtful that I'd get the ticket. I knew how packed GBK was from the TV news I watched before. But boyfie said that it wasn't as bad as it seemed. Turned out it was THAT bad. GBK was really packed with people wearing red and white tees who were ready to give their huge supports to Indonesia as much as we did. I told him to get in since he got the ticket already and I knew how bad he wants to watch it. But he strongly refused to. He said that he wants to get in as long as I'm with him. Oh, how sweet my man :')
After a long search, finally boyfie got a ticket for me but too bad we didn't allowed to get in cause the gatekeeper said that the stadium was shaking due to the overload people. We were like WHATT? This giant stadium could shake? Then why did you sell those tickets if you can't accommodate as many as it sold? Oh, so Indonesian! I knew boyfie was deeply upset but he didn't show it to me yet made a fun video with his iPod instead. We acted as if we were live reporting from the venue. Hahahah. Stupid! I'll post the video soon.. Oh, and we ended up watch the match at FX's atrium.
There was a giant screen with loads of people sat in the floor wore read and white tees as if they watched it inside the stadium. I bet these people had similar experience with us. Haha. Unfortunately, the game ended with frustrating score. Malaysia beat Indonesia with 1 goal! Booooo! At that time we were thankful that we didn't watch it inside the stadium since we knew how chaos and riot it would be.
Anyway, there was an exhibition of Sea Games Lego. They were sooooo cute like uberrrr cute! Lalalalove it! At least the disappointment of the losing a bit healed by this :)
It was getting late then we decided to leave and found something to eat. Me and boyfie were walking hand by hand made stupid jokes and laugh hard, act like we've forgotten the disappointment. All went well until we got into the parking area and found that boyfie's helmet weren't there. Someone stole it and the security parking acted like it's none of his problem. Crap! How come it's none of your problem? You were the one who responsible for all this. That's why it's called "Secure Park" isn't it? Boyfie was soo upset on the way home. Poor honeybee :(
Though we failed at our first try, we didn't gave up. We did the second try to watch Badminton semifinal live at Istora Senayan. I'll post the next story! Xx

You are the cheese on my Macaroni!
No matter how hard we fought at night, no matter how hard I cried at night, we always ended up laughed, made a sweet goodnight call then sleep peacefully. I love how we couldn't mad at each other for hours. I love the way we couldn't stand the silence between us for hours. I love the way it is. Please stay this way.. Thank you for all your patience, Aidil Akbar.
Goodnight. You are the cheese on my Macaroni ! Xx

OK VIDEO FLESH: Music video screening and Music Concert
Have you ever went to an interesting place or event, planned to post it on your blog then suddenly it ruined by a stupid thing like forgot to charge your camera? I JUST DID IT!
This is how the story goes.. Today ruangrupa was having a video screening and music concert which is still in conjunction of OK. VIDEO FLESH 2011. There were 25 inspiring music videos and great performers such as Whiteshoes and The Couples Company, Bangkutaman, The Upstairs, Hightime Rebellion and Sir Dandy. A friend of mine, Thema was asked me for a help. She asked me to be LO (Liaison Officer) for the bands who performed today. I was really excited when I heard about this event and took the offer without any hesitate. Well to be frank, I was always excited with any projects held by ruangrupa and yes.. I was really proud been a part of their biggest event last year..
It was 2 pm when I leaved home, grabbed my Nicky (Nikon), planned to take some piccies in the middle of my duty and post it here. Then, I went to Cikini by train. Been a while.. Kinda miss the situation inside the women-only carriages. Didn't changed a lot. I could still enjoyed it as much as I did. The annoying kiddos, college girls gossiping their mates, Hijabers reading Quran, sleeping ladies and everything. It just took about 30 mins to reach Cikini train station. As I arrived at GBB, I was told that I'll be an LO for Hightime Rebellion and Sir Dandy. Wohooo! I've heard their songs but never watch 'em live. Today I finally watched them and even more, being their LO! Anyway, Hightime Rebellion members are really nice. Especially the female vocalist, Miena. She's sooo humble yet soo talented and not to mention the pretty face. I fell in love with her voice and her singing stance. I bet you will as well! Sir Dandy was really nice either. Oh, and surprisingly Ade Paloh the vocalist of my all time favorite band "Sore" was one of the band player. What could I ask more? Hahah. The gig was start at 6-ish. The venue was packed even before the gate opened. My boyfriend was coming either. The stage was well decorated. The crowds were great. Everything went well until I turned my Nicky on to take Hightime Rebellion photos when they were on stage. And as I mentioned before, the battery runs out ladies and gentleman! Fark! Tried to take some pictures with my mobile phone but all I got was blurry and crappy photos. Totally not a blog-material. Arghhh! I effing hate when everything went out of my plans! Huhuh. It was supposed to be a post with lottts of cool pictures instead of this boring post.. I hate posting without photos. Don't you?
Lesson learned: NEVER LEAVE HOME WITHOUT CHECKING YOU CAMERA'S BATTERY! Unless you'll be in a big regret like I currently feel.
Anyway, I had a great day. It was always nice working with ruangrupa. Another project awaits. Can't wait to share it with you.. Goodnight! Xx

Your social media is your self branding!
Siapa yang setuju sama pernyataan di atas? Gw personally, setuju banget!
Sebenarnya gw bukan Tiffatul Sembiring atau Roy Suryo yang "katanya" ahlinya soal beginian. Gw juga bukan orang yang ngerti banget sejak kapan social media memiliki peran yang begitu besar nya bagi pencitraan seseorang. But since my very first social media was Friendster, let's start from there.
Masih inget kan gimana kolom "testimonial" di Friendster benar-benar digunakan dalam fungsi sebenarnya? Masa-masa di mana elo berbalas "testi" dengan teman menggunakan mantra "isi testi gw dong, yang bagus-bagus yah! Ntar gw bales deh!". Well, I did. And I know most of you did. Ya kaaan? *nyari temen se-per ababilan*. Hahah! Testimonial dari teman-teman yang biasanya dimulai dengan "si anu itu orangnya..." dan mostly sudah melalui proses brief dan sortir terlebih dahulu itu pun bagian dari self branding. Dan tentu saja, profile picture menentukan segalanya! Semakin cantik atau ganteng fotonya, semakin banyak orang yang nge-add dan semakin banyak juga seri account nya. "Si Anu 1, 2, 3, 4, ....257". Kalau sudah lebih dari 10, itulah barometer "gaul" nya Friendster. Gw sih cuma sampe 4. Ahem. Hahah!
Bosan dengan Friendster orang-orang pun pelan-pelan mulai berpindah hati ke Facebook. Kalau dulu Friendster fenomenal dengan berbalas "Testi" nya, Facebook pun sempat fenomenal dengan berbalas "badge" nya. Dari mulai Lomo, Sushi, Fashion items, etc. Kalau FS punya "testimonial" FB punya "wall". Gak jauh berbeda sih yah sebenarnya. Mungkin sebagian orang mulai gerah dengan FS yang mulai terjangkit virus alay mengingat pada saat awal kemunculannya, FB masih berkesan eksklusif. Di sini, photo album lah yang memegang peranan penting bagi self branding. Semakin banyak album dengan title "Partayyy", "Blowfish" or "Sundazzee" maka semakin eksis lah seseorang itu dalam pergaulan (no offense asli! :p). Semakin banyak album dengan tittle "Me, Myself, and I" or "Self potrait" maka semakin narsis lah seseorang itu. Semakin banyak album dengan title "NEW ARRIVAL PO NOVEMBER" or "LATEST COLLECTION NIH SIST" maka waspadalah dengan random tag foto barang baru mereka. Dari baju, sepatu, tas, laptop sampai obat pelangsing. Pfft! This one is really annoying! Facebook was really fun until I saw Mangga Dua on my news feed, Sist! Oh, and when Facebook users are no longer using their real name and replaced it with theseee...Wait. Atau emang ini nama asli merekaaah? *kemplang orang tuanya satu-satu :))
Then we have Twitter. Twitter is SUPPOSED to be micro blog of 140 characters that turns out being an instant messenger for some or most of it's users. Gw sendiri join twitter sejak menggunakan BlackBerry which is approx 3 years ago. Seperti kebanyakan pemula, gw pun bingung mau post apa. Gak ada photo album nya nih? Apa asiknya sih baca-baca in status orang doang? Pikir gw saat itu. Namun setelah nemu asik nya, update twitter pun menjadi rutinitas wajib yang menyenangkan dengan frekuensi 5 menit sekali. Bahkan perpindahan tangan dari kiri ke kanan pun kalau bisa di update di twitter. Hahah. Sampai beberapa teman pun mulai protes karena timeline isi nya gueh semuaa :)) Nah, kalau social-social media sebelumnya menggunakan foto sebagai alat self branding utama, di twitter tulisan lo lah yang akan menjadi penentu pencitraan diri. Banyak orang yang menyebut nya dengan ungkapan "tweet mu harimau mu".
Kalau dipikir, how come your personality could be defined only by 140 characters? Tapi coba, berapa sering kalian menilai seseorang dari apa yang mereka tweet. Sering kan mendengar pernyataan macam "cantik sih, tapi tweet nya alay ah" or "lucu sih.. tapi masa cowo tweet galau terus sih?" dan sebagainya. Semakin banyak seseorang mention-mentionan sama orang "penting" maka dia pun juga akan dianggap penting. Semakin banyak followers, maka semakin "penting" juga dia. Orang dengan timeline yang penuh dengan RT-an tidak penting dianggap annoying, orang yang timeline nya penuh dengan keluhan dan sumpah serapah dianggap nyebelin dan pemarah, orang yang timeline nya penuh dengan kegalauan dianggap lemah, orang yang timeline nya penuh dengan check-in 4square di tempat gaul yang ia datangi dianggap norak. Serba salah yah? Twitter pun bisa membuat orang yang tidak kita kenal secara personal mendadak berasa kenal akrab karena follow twitternya. Hal ini berlaku pada public figure atau SelebTweet yang kita follow. Waktu mereka galau, kita tau. Waktu mereka lagi makan siang, kita tau. Waktu mereka mau tidur pun, pamitan dulu sama kita. Akrab kan? :))
Pasti kalian juga pernah dengar beberapa artis yang masuk Infotainment hanya karena tweet yang dia post? Sebut saja Luna Maya yang sempat bermasalah dengan wartawan karena tweet doi yang gak enak or yang masih hangat Anji-dan-calon-istrinya-yang-gak-jadi-kawin-itu *doh, ketauan deh update infotainment nya :p* See? How 140 characters could affect what people think of you. Hebatnya, "self branding" dari Twitter ini pun dimanfaatkan oleh beberapa produk/brand sebagai alat branding mereka. Muncul lah fenomena tweet berbayar yang nyatanya malah di rasa lebih efektif sekarang. Gw pun pernah kena korban iklan lewat tweet berbayar loh! :p
Gw personally pun sering kali tanpa sengaja melakukan pencitraan diri di twitter. That's why sebelum bener-bener posting, gw baca dulu berkali-kali memastikan gak ada yg typo dan mengandung SARA yang sensitif. Gak mau dianggap annoying or nyebelin :p But for me, twitter is no longer fun since perkara follow/unfollow jadi begitu sensitif. Oh, dan setelah wabah "folbek eaaaa kakak" mulai menyebar. Hahah.
Sekali lagi gw bukan bermaksud menyinggung, menggurui or sok tau. It's purely my random thoughts. Anyway, folbek eaaaaa kakaaakkk! :))

Sekali lagi gw bukan bermaksud menyinggung, menggurui or sok tau. It's purely my random thoughts. Anyway, folbek eaaaaa kakaaakkk! :))

A day full of happiness #2: Juice In Case
Planned to post it right after I posted my #1 edition of "A day full of happiness" but I've been busy accompanied my family from Makassar during their stay here. So it's kinda late actually but better late that never, aight?
So here we go.. As we back from the Zoo, we planned to visit a new tiny coffee shop not far from my casa named "Ladang Coffee". Turns out it had not open yet. Krrr! So why the hell did you put your giant bored already, huh? Oh, and they told us to visit their branch shop at BSD. Ngehh? The main reason we came here was because it's nearby my house NOT because we're dying to taste your Coffee, Sir! Pffth.. Haha! Well since BSD is freakin far away and we didn't really curious to taste the so-called "Ladang Coffee", boyfie planned to look for another coffee shop that we haven't been visited. In the midst of our despair, we suddenly reminded by a tiny juice shop we once passed when we were going to Hero Kemang one day. A-ha! That was another great idea we made that day after the Zoo-date!
"Juice in Case" is located on the roadside of Kemang Timur nearby Hero Kemang. It was kinda hidden between those cafes, coffee shops and resto in Kemang area. Actually it's just like another warung-kaki-lima with plywood and all. But the owner succeed to decorate this tiny shop uniquely. They putted some hanging papers with cute writings about fruit an veggies. It easily attracts attentions of the passers-by. Well the name "Juice in Case" itself is soo unique yet catchy don't you think?
"Juice in Case" sells any kind of beverages such as milkshakes, yoghurt, mix fruits, tea and coffee. For foods they sell french fries, sandwich, instant noodle and udon. Despite it is one of a kind roadside-shops, the menus are all written in english. Anyway, I love the way they named their beverages differently like Milkyway for milkshakes. The price are quite affordable. 18k for milkshake and mix fruits, 19k for yoghurts, 10k for tea and coffee. I ordered mix strawberry and mango yoghurt while boyfie ordered ginger mint coffee. Mine was really tasty and fresssshh. Seriously, it's even better then yoghurt drink I've tasted in another big coffee shop. I didn't taste boyfie's coffee since I don't really like coffee but he said that it's good either..
While enjoying our yoghurt and coffee, there was abang-tukang-bakso passed by. Huaaaa I've been craving for Bakso since we were in the Zoo and suddenly this heavenly food showed up in front of us. Another universe-conspires, no? Then I asked the waiter if we can order any food outside, and he allowed us. Yippie yeayyy!
Alhamdulillaah we're full and happyyy! It's a recommended place! Will definitely go back here.. Oh, well if you interested to go here, you better be soon. Cause I had a little chit-chat with the friendly waiter and He said that it might be closed soon for some reason. Maybe it's because of the lack visitors considered that it's kinda hidden area.. Huuu.. Too bad :(
Anyway, my happiness of the day was completed by news from Mom and Dad saying that they're doing just fine there. Alhamdulillahh.. Dear God, thankyou for this full-of-happiness day :)

A day full of happiness #1: Zoo
It was a cloudy afternoon while Me and my Boyfie decided to visit our big family at the Ragunan Zoo. Hahah. It was truly spontaneous idea. I supposed to go to ruangrupa for a meeting, turns out it was cancelled. And instead of eating-sleeping-doing-nothing-increasing-belly-fat at home I asked my Boyfie to catch up today. Since none of us are having a steady job yet and considered that we've spent soo much time together lately, so we've reach the pathetic phase of life, BOKEK. Hahah. It was kinda hard to decide where-to-go with this limited budget we had. Then I came up with an idea "Why don't we go to the Zoo?" and boyfie liked the idea. Yippie yeay! So, Ragunan.. here we coomeee! :D
Fyi, my house is in Jagakarsa which is really nearby Ragunan. It just took about 5 mins to go there by car or motorcycle. But believe it or not, I haven't visited the zoo NOT even once since I lived here for approx 3 years. Hahah. I usually came to Ragunan just to take Transjakarta to go to my-used-to-be campus. Planned to get in there many times but it was never happened. And on this one random day, I'm finally here..
We arrived at the Zoo at 4ish. Yeah, I know it was a bit too late knowing that it will closed by 6. But since it was a totally spontaneous idea, so I thought 2 hours is enough.. Before we came to the locket, we saw the price list board and you know whatt? It's just cost 4.500 idr for one person? This is no joke, aite? Then I looked at my boyfie in the eyes and said "We made a good decision!". A-ha! The most surprisingly thing was when we came to the locket and we found no one there. Not even one.. All locket was closed but the gate was widely open. So we don't need to pay anything? Huaaaaaa.. It's even better! Woohoooo! You know the feeling when you're totally broke and suddenly the universe conspires? Hihih. Alhamdulillah :D
As we entered the zoo I planned to take some pics with Zebra and Deer for the fashion purpose. Silly eh? But I really love to see Zebra printed clothes and Deer shaped rings. Then Boyfie asked me, "so don't you want to see Leopard either?" Hahah. You know me so well dehh! Luckily I found a cute little deer but sadly I couldn't found the Zebra. So, I took some picts with it's statue instead :p
Shit happened in the middle of our journey. My shoe soles was broken. FUUUUU. My Sister has remain me that it's kinda fragile. I was supposed to listen to her :(
We also planned to see Leopard and White Tiger.. but unfortunately on our way there, we met the Zookeeper who said that most of the wild animals had been putted in the cage for the safety sake. Huhu too bad :( So, we decided to leave the Zoo since we've seen all the not-so-wild animals that left. But we planned to go back there a bit earlier at another time. Hopefully, soon!
Although we just spent a little time there but we had soo much fun. We proved that we don't always need to spend much for dating. Bored with movie date or dinner date at the Mall? This could be an alternative date for you and your boo! Till we meet again, animals! We'll catch you back soon (hopefully)!
