NIDJIHOLIK

Gw lagi sebel banged nih ama EO yang gelar konsernya NIDJI and the ganK! Konser itu semula bakal diadain dua hari, which is falls on Saturday and Sunday. Konser hari Pertama, Repvblik and Rebecca. Konser Hari Pertama berjalan lancar. Nah konser hari kedua ini nih yg buat Nidjiholik kuciwa (satu tingkat di atas kecewa) banged Boo... Hari itu juga, BAM (read: Badan Anti Maksiat) mengeluarkan "larangan" untuk konser Nidji. According to BAM, konser Nidji ga ada faedahnya dan cenderung akan menyebabkan terjadinya pelanggaran-pelanggaran hukum Syariah.

Yang buat gw gedeg banged, kok pembatalannya dilakukan di hari H! Kan yang rugi gw dan nidjiholik lainnya, well, pihak sponsor juga rugi sich, artisnya juga rugi, dari yang gw liat di infotainment, mereka nombokin karena EO tidak membayar hotel dan tiket pulangnya *gubrakz* TERLALUU.........

Yang buat gw gedeg lagi, tau ga loe (ya belon tau lah, secara gw belon cerita apapun), malam sebelumnya, A-mild ngadain acara From Aceh with Love, salah satu Guest Star nya Joe the Flizzow of Too Phat yang mengusung musik Hip Hop, btw, kenapa BAM mengijinkan konser ini diadain ya, padahal music Hip Hop kan punya tendensi dengan kehidupan glamour dan hura2...dunia azep..azep apalah gitu yang cenderung menimbulkan pelanggaran hukum Syariah, tapi kok BAM nya anteng aja... terus tau ga loe (ya ga taulah....), di konser a-mild ini, ada satu grup band dari luar Aceh, yang belum terkenal, ngebawain lagu-lagunya Marilyn Manson, gila ga tuch.. mana lagu terakhirnya "This is the new SHIT". Kemana tuh para anggota dewan BAM??

HERAN deeehh.. anyway, gw penggemar beberapa lagunya Marilyn Manson sich, tapi gw cukup kaget aja kenapa lagu-lagu seperti ini malah kagak diprotes sama sekali...

Sorry ya Oom Marilyn kalo tersinggung ama postingan saya, bukan bermaksud sih, secara saya juga fans nya oom :-)

Anyway, moga-moga di kemudian hari, hal seperti ini kagak terulang kembali di Tanah Rencong "Atjeh Loen Sayang", kan kacian nidjiholik or fans-fans yang lain....

Silly ADMIRER

What a HECTIC Friday [as ussual] but thank's God it's over now *fiuhhh*

I tried to relax my mind for a while, I open my account at ASC site and what I found there? I got simply beautiful E-Card from my SECRET ADMIRER [read: silly admirer].

Why I said SILLY ADMIRER? Coz he sent me Valentine's Card, six (6) months in advance.

Anyway, it feels good to have a SECRET ADMIRER? Dun ya think so?

Btw, today one of my "ember-curhat" [read: sharing partner] departs to Jakarta before leaving this country forever [read: for sometime uncleared].

He is such a good man [read: smart, wise, funny, generous, good listener and so humble].

If only his status was single [read: unmarried or divorced] maybe I will put him on my PBF [Potential Boy Friend] list.

Back to the story, when he wanted to say goodbye with me, I can see his face is getting red [read: almost crying]. And so do I [actually]. When he hugged and kissed [on cheeks of course] me, that's the moment I realize that maybe this is the last hug & kiss from him and I'm starting to miss him already [Oh My.....]

I wonder why time move so fast. It just felt like yesterday when the first time I met him but now he's gone....

I'm gonna miss ya a lot, Mr. Bhu....

NEW TATTOOES

I've been so lazy to write these few days not b'coz I'm too busy with my job or social life but I feel so sleepy lately. I rushed to home after office hour so I could go to sleep earlier.

I couldn't sleep well last week coz my INSOMNIAC was back but since I took massage last Saturday, I can sleep well now.

THAT's GOOD!

This massage centre called FAKRIAH.

It's about 15minutes walk from my house.

I spent 3hours for treatment such as Massage, Body Scrub, Bekam ala Tiongkok and Steam and it costs me IDR 120,000 but it's WORTH it.

I feel so fresh after taking the whole treatment and I could sleep so well [read: tight].

But, what I found after I took shower and look at the mirror

There are so many brown circles on my back

It's about 13 circles

It must be the side effect of "BEKAM ala TIONGKOK"

How did I get it?

The massager putted the glass which had been warmed up with fire into my skins

The point is to draw the "air" from the body because I got "masuk angin" sickness

I hope the "new tattooes" will disapear within this one week

If not... I'm going to be crazy!@#$%^&*

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BANGSA-KU!!

Sudah lama keluarga saya sejak Bulang Buyut [baca: Kakek Buyut], Bulang-Tigan [baca: Kakek-Nenek], Bi Tua-Pak Tua[baca: Bibi-Oom], Mami-Mama [baca: Tante-Paman], Adik hingga Orang tua saya bahkan saya sendiri, hidup dan bernafas serta mencari makan di sini, di Indonesia.

Negara dengan keragaman kultur, budaya, ras, agama dan tentu satu yang tidak terlupakan Indonesia sangat kaya akan keragaman dan keaneka ragaman KORUPSI.

Selamat ulang tahun bangsaku, semoga di masa depan warga negara-mu benar-benar bisa MERDEKA. Karena di MERDEKA-mu yang ke 62 sekarang ini kata MERDEKA masih belum bisa di rasakan oleh seluruh warga negaramu.

I LOVE YOU, DAD....

Today is my beloved Dad's birthday. If he's still alive, then he will be 62 years old now.
Time is moving so fast, dun ya think so? It's felt like just yesterday when he feed me, putted-on the shoes, prepared my book to school, carried me on his shoulder, slept on his lap.

I was only 11 years old when he passed away and it's the worst NIGHTMARE ever for me.
Why YOU take him violently, Lord?

Akhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I shouldn't blame GOD on this [i'm sorry Lord].

I gotta be STRONG and TOUGH eventhough it's not EASY [not at all]

..................run away.....................

Sometimes I feel like the world is looking over my shoulder
I don't know why but I feel my patience getting shorter

The tension builds but I feel the walls are getting thicker
And then I still make believe that I am feeling better

I don't want to know
I don't want to feel
I don't want to be

I don't want to sound crazy
I don't want to sound insane

But I can't take the pressure no more
Have you ever felt the same?
Like you just need to run away
Away................

Is Chocolate better than Sex

Some people say that sex is the international language.
But I think it is chocolate.

In every country, there is a special chocolate dessert, a signature treat that people dream of even after they leave. Countries fight over whose chocolate is best.

Today when I opened my FS, I found very interesting posting from ex-prisoners #6. It's about twenty (20) top reasons why chocolate is better than sex.


Here they are :

1) You can GET chocolate.
2) "If you love me you'll swallow that" has real meaning with chocolate.
3) Chocolate satisfies even when it has gone soft.
4) You can safely have chocolate while you are driving.
5) You can make chocolate last as long as you want it to.
6) You can have chocolate even in front of your mother.
7) If you bite the nuts too hard the chocolate won't mind.
8) Two people of the same sex can have chocolate without being called nasty names.
9) The word "commitment" doesn't scare off chocolate.
10) You can have chocolate on top of your workbench/desk during working hours without upsetting your co-workers.
11) You can ask a stranger for chocolate without getting your face slapped.
12) You don't get hairs in your mouth with chocolate.
13) With chocolate there's no need to fake it.
14) Chocolate doesn't make you pregnant.
15) You can have chocolate at any time of the month.
16) Good chocolate is easy to find.
17) You can have as many kinds of chocolate as you can handle.
18) You are never too young or too old for chocolate.
19) When you have great chocolate it doesn't keep your neighbors awake.
20) With chocolate size doesn't matter. It's ALL good!

WHAT OPRAH HAD TO SAY ABOUT MEN

I'm not exactly a die-hard fan of Oprah (but I tried my best to never miss a single episode of her show), nor do I have anything against her. I also am not convinced that Oprah actually invented these "words of wisdom".

I confess I post this for personal cathartic purposes on the romance department... [Hey, even a tough chick like me deserves some moments of weaknesses... hwehwehwe].

I definitely won't be using this against my dearest male friends [FRIENDS, as in R-E-A-L F-R-I-E-N-D-S.. not jerks who claim to be but not act on it].

There are so many great male friends that have proven that they are MORE than dogs... wakakakakakak... Luv ya guyz!!!

============================================================

WHAT OPRAH HAD TO SAY ABOUT MEN

- If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.

- Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior.

- Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.

- Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to be.

- Slower is better. Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy.

- If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no, you can't "be friends". A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend.

- Don't settle. If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is.

- Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.

- The only person you can control in a relationship is you.

- Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women. He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, why would he treat you any differently?

- Always have your own set of friends separate from his.

- Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up.

- Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.

- You cannot change a man's behavior. Change comes from within.

- Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are... Even if he has more education or in a better job. Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less.

- Never let a man define who you are.

- Never borrow someone else's man. If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.

- A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.

- All men are NOT dogs.

- You should not be the one doing all the bending...compromise is two way street.

- You need time to heal between relationships. ..there is nothing cute about baggage... Deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship.

- You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you... A relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals. Look for someone complimentary, not supplementary.

- Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.

- Make him miss you sometimes... When a man always knows where you are, and you're always readily available to him - he takes it for granted.

- Never move into his mother's house. Never co-sign for a man. Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need.

- Keep him in your radar but get to know others.


Share this with other women and men (just so they know)... You'll make someone smile, another rethink her choices, and another woman prepare.

They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them and an entire lifetime to forget them.
[Naaahhh!!!! Don't think so!!!!]

the GREATEST journey

After being HIATUS for the past six months, here I am back again to pour all the thoughts that had been stucked on my mind and share some analysis behind my last tragic love life (sigh)


Do you know what....
Sometimes the greatest journey is the distance betwen two people...??????????????????
You may disagree with me,
but....

Have you ever loved someone and at the same time feel that the only thing you could do is to bring out the worse in him whenever the distance is covered only a step, if not half step?

You’re miffedly torn and washed away, almost out of descent air to breathe due to drowning, with the spate of love and guilt – over and over and over again.

You only wanted the best for him, but all things come out as if the only thing you could do to him is only the worse. The worse of the worse one can imagine or actually do.

Then you’re like dense, thick, clueless, stupid, unintelligent, dim, slow, brainless, dim-witted, obtuse, almost an idiot… Who’s fault was that? Mine? The brain, the heart and the soul said it’s my fault. Solely my fault.

You love him, but no matter whatever you do, you’re only hurting him, damaging him to a point of inhumane existence. Hatred silently grew in his heart and yours.

What to do?

What to do when anything you do – whether distancing away, staying away, getting closer, doing everything you could, making things better – results only in bitterness?

What to do when doing nothing and doing everything means shit?

You feel like crying, but you feel such patheticness is intolerable for you to know exactly (to a certain degree) who and/or what you are. You know how strong and powerful you are, but at the same time such obliviousness is unbearably present, realistically in attendance.

Five people, all in their own kind of ways and languages, said that I am CREDULOUS when it comes to the object of my affection. Bizarrely, I bumped into that particular term a while before all 5 friends made those comments.

credulous /"

krEdjUl@s/
· adj. having or showing too great a readiness to believe things.


What does it mean?

I wish I could fly – far up and away, alone but not lonely. My non-presence might be the best for everyone and everything.

I want to fly. Up and away.
