All I wanted

If I have any opportunity ...

Aku pengen ketemu kamu lagi ...ketawa bareng kayak dulu ...
Aku pengen cela2an lagi sama kamu, menertawakan beda tipis antara yang percaya diri dan gak tau diri ...

I want to give you my smile !!

Aku pengen makan mie bareng kamu lagi ...
Aku pengen nemenin kamu makan hartz chicken kesukaan kamu ...

Aku pengen melihat kamu ada di teras kost ku lagi ... nungguin aku keluar ...
Aku pengen kamu ngejemput aku lagi untuk makan malam ...
Aku pengen kita ngobrol lagi sampai larut malam dan ibu kost mengusirmu dengan halus ...

Aku pengen kita pergi ke TIM lagi kayak dulu ...
Nemenin kamu main games tembak2an yang aku gak ngerti asyiknya di mana ...
Lalu makan pop corn ...
Ya, kamu selalu minta extra butter ...

Lalu kita ngebahas semua topic of day di sepanjang makan malam kita ...
Sebelum kamu lalu mencela2 aku, ketawa, dan tersenyum ...
Kita tertawa bersama2 ...

Tapi semua lewat ...
Aku berusaha berdamai dengan mu dan dengan diriku sendiri ...
Toh aku harus merelakan mu pergi dengan dia yang akhirnya kamu pilih ...

Andai aku bisa menghilangkan rasa sakit ini ...
Dan mengalahkan segala egoku ...
Andai aku bisa bersikap 'normal' dan 'enggak ekstrim' ...
"Kamu selalu ekstrim", itu kata sahabatku kepadaku

Aku ingin ketemu kamu lagi ...
Aku ingin ketawa bareng kamu lagi ...
Menganggap kamu sebagai seorang sahabat ...
Tertawa bersama seorang sahabat ...

Dan bila umur kita bertambah, hari2 kita telah berlalu ...
Kita bisa terus saling mengenang persahabatan kita ...

Andai aku bisa ...

Thanksgiving 2020

What a crazy ride we have been riding in 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic has pretty much put our life on hold, if not going on a slower pace. I feel that we are running a marathon, and it's not over yet. The emotional toll that we have been experiencing since March is real. Everything that we used to take for granted, like meeting up with friends, birthday parties, kids activities, traveling, the convenience of doing grocery shopping anytime we want, a lot of them have been taken away from us, from my family. No more parties, no more lunch or dinner with friends, no more invitation for birthday parties, no more traveling. Perhaps my life had become too easy before the pandemic. We had to switch Nathaniel from a brick and mortar school to a cyber school. I tried to plan my grocery trips ahead of time to avoid crowds. We had to wear masks everywhere. But at least we are healthy. At least I am facing this together with my husband and kids as a family. At least I am at home that is fu...

What would they decide ?

When I was a little girl, I heard a lot of stories about far-away lands from my mother. She told me stories that she got from my father's letters when he was away. Our family was apart for four years. My father went to school to Montpelier, France while my Mom raised my brother and me in Yogyakarta. Every other year Dad visited us, brought a lot of books and pictures home. Pictures of Versailles, Lourdes, Marseilles, Spain, and a lot more. He told us many stories, brought me from our little home to those countries, although only in imagination. Since that day, I convinced myself that someday, when I grow up, I will see those places with my own eyes :) About twenty some years later, my turn came. I stand here, a few thousand miles away from home. About once a week I call home, talked to my parents about this place. About the harsh winter in Pittsburgh, about my new town near Philadelphia, about my new job. I might not be here if my father never brought me those pictures, told me st...

Turned out alright

Last week everything turned out alright :) Jumat siang, dengan restu teman2 kantor :p gw cabut dari kantor, walaupun area leader gw ngajakin meeting buat next recipe, tapi dia bilang "Go ahead and don't worry about the meeting, you better get your license today :p" . Jam 12.30an, gw dijemput sama orang dari driving school, dan ngebutlah kita ke DMV Norristown ngejar ujian jam 2 siang. Gw deg2an banget, apalagi karena udah gagal 1x. Kalau gw fail lagi, means that I screw everything up. Karena in the next four weeks para tebengan bakalan cabut ke site di Oregon (gak mungkin kan gw jalan 2 mile ke kantor), kontrak apartment gw habis akhir September dan gw harus cari apartment baru, dan ada chance gw bakalan dikirim ke Oregon juga (walaupun bukan shift pertama). Tapi above it all, hidup tergantung sama orang lain itu sucks. Gw gak bisa bebas ke mana-mana, gak bisa cari kegiatan dan temen2 sendiri (temennya ya cuman temen dari temen gw), gak ada social life sama sekali. Nyampe...
