‡ 3rd Decade of Life ‡

(This post is one-week-late but, oh well, I still want to post something here)

Hello, people!
This is my first blog post in 2021. I hope we all are doing well despite how the pandemic still exists with us (14 months and counting). Goods news: the vaccines are currently distributed but, of course, it does not give you a 100% guarantee that you're virus-free so, still, stay safe!

Before I explained the reason behind my post title, I'd like to recommend (a lot of) stuffs to you that entertain me during the past months. I share some on my Instagram @erlia91 frequently and I also keep them on my IG story highlight.

Let's start the list. Feel free to contact me if you think you and I have a similar genre of favorite stuff!

Ongoing read (Manga & Webtoon)
I don't really spend time reading novels lately; probably because I usually absorb myself reading the words nonstop so I usually read manga or webtoons which don't require a lot of time.

  • Vincenzo (20 episodes, K-drama, Netflix)
  • Wandavision (9 episodes, TV Series, Disney+)



Now, to my post title.

So, on 24 May 2021, I just celebrated my 30th birthday, and, despite the current pandemic situation, this year I received lots of blessings from people around me. I might not be able to travel somewhere or going to new places like how I prefer myself to be but I'm really grateful for how I am today.

I have a really good job, I can spend time with my family, I can buy stuff that I need, I can play games that I want, I can talk with my friends (virtually), I can read and watch my favorite choices. Of course, I expect more for myself but, well, that's one of the ways for us to strive for better, no?

I'm really thankful for my family and friends, for all the wishes and blessings. May only good things await us, may the pandemic quickly disappears, and -- hopefully -- on next year's birthday, I can share even better news for everyone (this year I share my favorite stuff, you know?).

Once again, thank you!

Oh, there are things that must be called the resolution of the year and, surprise but not surprise, it's almost half-year of 2021 now so... yeah, I still have another 7 months. What's the resolution?

It's called being healthy. I literally just laze around almost every day; I even work on my bed, lol.

And there's another big news that I will greet on 4 June. I will definitely include that day in my end-of-year recap. And... I think I will post something else next week. It's something that I really have wanted to share since, probably, 2-3 years ago, but I haven't managed to pour it into words.

Well, see you on the next post, people!

‡ A Quarter of Century ‡

So, it's 24 May once again.

This year, my age hits the same number of a quarter of century. Oh yes, people, I'm officially 25.

Quick recap of what happened in the past few years on my birthday:

2013: you can read the detail here.

2014: got a new family member named Luna, a lovely Shihtzu -- can also be considered as a birthday present from Matthew. I bought two books for myself as my own birthday presents.



2015: finally received a proper birthday surprise from my friends at Central Park and, yes, at HKC, one of my most favorite restaurants there. A day before 24 May, I traveled alone to Kebun Binatang Ragunan, Jakarta Cathedral, and Es Krim Ragusa.



And, this year, I spent my birthday at Cikarang -- I'm currently working on a project here with my team. Possibly until July. (And, oh, my partners here have been very kind to me on my birthday!)

Anyway, two days ago, on 22 May 2016 to be exact, I decided to have a little change on myself. Actually I had been considering it for at least a year but I always had reasons to procrastinate... until this year.

As you have read above, I often bought books for myself. Last year I did something different by traveling alone, enjoying my solitude. This year, it's a little bit different.

Ever heard of ombre hair? No? Yes?

Well, I have a green ombre hair color now!



Yes, that's my real hair. I have a maroon ombre hair clip but, no, that picture above is me and my real hair. Yes, green-haired girl here. HA!

It should be blue, in case you're wondering if my favorite color is green or not. As some of you probably have known, to color your hair, you should go through a process called "bleaching", which means you need to 'wash' your original hair color -- in my case: black.

The lighter hair color you want, the more bleaching you (probably) need to do so your hair can live up the color. As for my case, the blackness of my hair is somewhat too strong and I have turquoise color as my hair color.

Not that I complaint though because, I think, as a starter of such a change for myself, this color is perfect!

A bunch of love and thanks to Jessica Faith (IG: @jfhairstudio) for the magic! I spent half of my Sunday with her and it's such a lovely visit! I can make sure that I will definitely return there again in the future!

I'm not going to write a long post but here we go.

Thanks God for all the blessings You've been generously given to me.
Thanks to all my friends for the birthday wishes; may only the best be with you too.
Thanks to my family and my best friends -- for all the special birthday greetings you've sent to me (text messages, voice messages, phone calls).

A quarter of century. I'm ready to live it to the fullest. :)



Quoted from Muhammad Ali, it's said that friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It's not something you learn in school but, if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.

So here's my (short) story about a guy who celebrates his birthday on 2 September every year. This year he turns 23 and, therefore, I dedicate this blog post especially for him.



We met for the first time during August 2008 -- yes, 5 years ago. Time did fly, right? We were in the same class for new college students, spending a week to get used with new environment, knowing a little better about Information Systems as our major. However we barely even talked to each other during the week.

Our class wanted to join an audition to perform on new students' inauguration day and fate led us to be in a group. There we became friends, going to karaoke, having fun with ice skating, and fate didn't leave just like that. We met again in the same class for our first semester.

Together with Brenda, three of us were well known as 'one package', came in three everywhere, combined in a study group, going every place (almost) together. To make it even more better, three of us joined HIMSISFO altogether though each of us selected different commissions. It didn't matter, really, since it excited us even more to share different experiences.



Honestly speaking, our friendship story is not a fully happy one. I argued a lot with him, thanks to both of us for being stubborn. This became even more obvious -- and worse -- during our fourth to sixth semester. We argued a lot and, by that, I  mean it. A lot. I even came to the point of talking about his worst trait with anger and all.

He also scolded me, for being so childish and inconsiderate, for not being a good friend by not telling him what his mistakes were. We're the same when it came to stubborn trait but, other than that, we're actually so different that it's like two different worlds apart.

Going on and on, now that both of us have worked at different places, in case you're wondering how our friendship is at the moment, in my point of view, it's perfectly great. Actually I just had a good talk with him and other friends yesterday since it's been a while since the last time we talked so much about random topics.

I changed a lot since 2008. He changed a lot as well. We changed a lot and, for me, it's a good change.



I'm thankful for having him as my best friend, for living the great moments in my life, through the joy and sadness, through the good and bad, through the laughter and arguments. I know both of us are not perfect but, the fact that we're living our best with the imperfection, it always reminds me that no one needs to be perfect.

So, thank you, for being a best friend who would listen to me when I need the ears to listen, who would tell me news of your life when I ask. Although both of us have different friends cycle to live with most of the days, I'm glad that both of us still can talk so comfortably whenever we meet each other.



We don't need to keep in touch every week or every month but, knowing that we remember each other as a friend, it's more than enough for me. Your happiness, health, and goodness are the blessings I wish to be with you for the rest of your life -- and I pray for them to be your best companion this year as well.

For teasing me like a kid, making me laugh, scolding my mistakes, believing in me, listening to me, talking to me, being my best friend, and everything I can't express with words... A zillion thanks.



Happy birthday, Shandy. :)

Sincerely,
Erlia

‡ 22 ‡



Talking about birthday, some would always have their own choices to spend their special days.
Ones would love to spend their time with families and friends, or perhaps lovers if they already have.
Ones would just spend the day in ordinary way, pretending it's just another good day.
Ones would wait for people to greet them with birthday wishes, simply because it's their days -- the days to have the attention without asking for it.

Me?
I was used to be the one who was eager to have more and more birthday greetings from friends. It was the moment when I felt so special for just one day.
Then, I don't really remember when, I turned my principle to hide my birthday as unnoticed as possible -- hiding it from the social network possible, replying privately to the birthday wishes I received, and all.
The reason is quite childish. I was just hoping people would remember my birthday without notification from social network or someone else. Oh, I even once asked my close friends to not publish my birthday anywhere.

Now?
Oh, I'm just a combination of both. I'm trying to have my birthday as ordinary as it can be. I still hide my birthday here and there but, when people greet me at Twitter or other SNS, I would gladly reply to them even though it means people would notice.
I take all of them as blessings and I am grateful for them.

The different things I notice from my 22nd birthday today?

No more text message.
I used to receive text message as the form of birthday greetings until last year. Since smartphones and social networking services are worldwide now, people barely use the text messaging function -- I guess. Yep, my phone doesn't vibrate at all this whole day for a new text message.
I still kept some birthday text messages I received last year though.

No more post on Facebook wall.
Last year, people used to mention the birthday boy/girl on their Facebook status. Today I have a really peaceful Facebook notification. In fact, I have none. All the birthday wishes came from BBM, Twitter, and Whatsapp, followed by Instagram.

I have this tendency to remember one or two memorable birthday greetings I received from year to year.
Last year, Riki Rikmen sent me a text message (which I still keep in my phone inbox):

"Happy bday bu er, smoga sukses di perjalanan hidup,karir,jodoh . Tetap menjadi bu er , jangan brubah" . Bless you :)"

It might sound really simple. Well, it is really simple but it's more than memorable for me. How could I put it in words? I definitely like the words 'keep being yourself, don't change'. It makes me feel I'm good as myself -- and I'm happy.

This year's best memorable birthday greeting came from Monica Dewi Putri. She is currently at Shanghai now. Yes, different country. A really far one indeed. But she managed to give me the birthday greetings through Whatsapp.

She recorded her own voice just to wish me a birthday greeting! I was on my way back to home when I heard her voice, making me smile with unexpected expression. She made quite a surprise for me this year.

Well, in the very end of the day, I'm grateful for today. I got the chance to attend an event at Pacific Place, watched Fast and Furious 6 for free, walking around the mall with my partner at work, Stella Winata, who celebrated her birthday yesterday.



Thanks God for being so good and all for me. I'm so blessed to be loved by You.
Thanks for my family, for being the place where I grow older as time passes and be better -- I hope.
Thanks for my friends, for all the wishes and blessings you send to me. Appreciate them so much.



I also gave myself a birthday present. Pathetic, eh? But it's somehow a tradition I made for myself. LOL.
I hope I will enjoy the books. ;)



Since it's my 22nd birthday, hereby I also post the lyrics of "22", a song by Taylor Swift, one of my favorite artists.
Thank you for reading! ^^

It feels like a perfect night to dress up like hipsters
And make fun of our exes
It feels like a perfect night for breakfast at midnight
To fall in love with strangers

Yeah,
We're happy, free, confused, and lonely at the same time
It's miserable and magical, oh yeah
Tonight's the night when we forget about the deadlines
It's time

Oh oh!
I don't know about you but I'm feeling 22
Everything will be alright if you keep me next to you
You don't know about me but I'll bet you want to
Everything will be alright if we just keep dancing like we're 22
22

It seems like one of those nights, this place is too crowded
Too many cool kids
(who's Taylor Swift anyway? ugh)
It seems like one of those nights, we ditch the whole scene and end up dreaming
Instead of sleeping

Yeah,
We're happy, free, confused, and lonely in the best way
It's miserable and magical, oh yeah
Tonight's the night when we forget about the heartbreaks
It's time

Oh oh!
I don't know about you but I'm feeling 22
Everything will be alright if you keep me next to you
You don't know about me but I'll bet you want to
Everything will be alright if we just keep dancing like we're 22
22
I don't know about you
22
22

It feels like one of those nights,
We ditch the whole scene
It feels like one of those nights,
We won't be sleeping
It feels like one of those nights,
You look like bad news
I gotta have you
I gotta have you

Today is the last day of February 2013.
It feels like I just wrote my first blog post a week ago but, actually, two months have passed. Ah, time flies, doesn't it?

So, New Year is long gone, January has closed the curtain, the Chinese New Year on February 10 has passed, and Valentine's Day has kissed its goodbye.
We're going to face March pretty soon and, I believe, many surprises are awaiting for us.

What's up with my title?
It's just random topic in mind but I'll try to write it my best to entertain you. I hope so. It's about my opinion and what famous quotations stated.

On March 2, probably I will attend a wedding party of my colleague with my partner.
I'm currently twenty-one years old now; gonna be twenty-two in less than three months though.
Most of my friends already have lovers or, if I might say, their possible partners-in-life.
This fact actually leads question from some old acquaintances here and there, implying that I'm on a state where I should have a candidate as well.

Some quotes stated that love would come when the time was right, but I guess when you just sat still and waited, you had no right to complaint if your expectation didn't fulfill your wishes.
The thing here is I don't have the urge to dive in lovey dovey stuff.
No, it's not a bad thing. It's not that I have trauma or else. It's just that I don't feel it's the right time. Yet.

Sure, I will be attacked by the words 'you'll never know if you don't try' or 'if you don't have the right time, then make it'. I agree with those sentences but I also think that there are times when you're not supposed to force yourself in doing what you don't believe in.
I'm not a kid anymore but I'm still young enough to think carefully about my future. I don't want to rush myself; I'll take my time but, of course, I'm not supposed to waste my time either.



On March 9, I will go to attend Music Bank in Jakarta with one of my best friends.
Some would probably say I just waste my money for temporary entertainment like the popular K-Pop wave around nowadays.



I'm not going to defend myself with words like 'you don't know me', 'it's my hobby, so what?', or 'it's my life so screw you'.
As my alibi, here's one. People have their own choices to make themselves happy.
You may spend your time with books, catch up with movies, shop with friends, enjoy fancy dinner with lovers, go out of the country with family, or else.
It's a necessary that you need to make yourself enjoy your life in a way you can and I choose one of these hobbies of mine as the choice: supporting my idols by attending their concert.

People will not believe if I say the idols have changed my life but it's true and I know it is.
I got to know many new friends, I learned life lessons, and I understood what I should never understood before.
But, well, I guess I just want to have fun?

On March 26, it will mark one year since I started to work in my current company.
It is true that I'm one of lucky persons out there to have a permanent job with good friends around. The office is near from my house and the salary is good as well.

However I'm not going to lie by saying I really love my job or it's the best thing I experience. Because it's not.
I don't fall in love with it. Not even for the slightest.

Please note that it doesn't mean I don't do my job sincerely. I do my best with whatever I can because it's my job.
It's not that the job is bad but I guess my passion is just not in this place.

I read somewhere before that it's not impossible to make 'what you love - your passion' as your job. However I also read the opposite topic that 'do what you love' is a really bad advice career.
I actually must agree with both articles.

When you don't love your job, there is this part of you which doesn't feel satisfied with everything. Something is missing and you have no idea how to fill the emptiness.
Oh, yes, I am suffering it as well.

However it is also true that 'passion is not something you follow'. One said 'passion is something that will follow you as you put in the hard work to become valuable to the world'. And it makes sense, right?
Future is a really important thing and so does your passion but, well, career passions are rare.
Just because you love it, doesn't really mean you can live with it as your root of life. It's possible but there's no kind of scientific formula for the result.

What I'm trying to say here is I don't regret this job I have now. I'm very grateful despite the fact I'm not having my dream job.
Why?
Simply because I know there are so many things I still don't understand and I must know them in times. Teamwork, interpersonal skill, communication, leadership, and so many to mention.

How could I think like that?
Because Information System is also not my favorite choice to have as a major during college days but, if I didn't go on with it, I would never met all people in HIMSISFO, people who had changed my life so much.
That's why I know these moments are moments I need to treasure.

One day I will look back and be thankful for having this job.

Hopefully when I have my dream job...?

;)

How about you?




Anyway, I want to give a very happy birthday greeting to Valentcia Trifonia who celebrates her twenty-third birthday today!
Thanks for being a really good friend for me.
I wish you all the best in life and may happiness be your best companion.
God bless you.

‡ May Almost End ‡


Banyak banget hal yang pengen gw tumpahkan dalam tulisan,

tapi gw bingung harus mulai dari mana,
jadi apa yang gw tulis di bawah ini sedikit berantakan dan tidak beraturan,
mohon dimaklumi. Haha.


#Happy Couple
Salah seorang sahabat gw, Shandy, akhirnya sudah resmi IN A RELATIONSHIP dengan salah seorang pengurus HIMTI yang dia temui pas LKMM lalu.

Congratulations for Shandy and Vivi.
Have a blessed relationship. :)

dari pihak HIMTI maupun HIMSISFO. Haha.
Langgeng ya nak~ :p


#Skripsi & KRS
Proposal skripsi untuk jurusan besok dikumpul.
Dibikin sih udah, tapi ada sesuatu yang janggal,
yang membuat sesuatu terasa kurang.

Tau dah apaan, semoga hanya perasaan gw.
Yang penting kelarin dulu proposal soalnya perusahaannya dah OK sih. Haha.

KRS juga sudah beres diisi tanggal 23 Mei lalu walaupun udah sempat keq perebutan entah apa itu,
di mana-mana warnet rame ama anak jurusan SI dan dalam 1 menit kelas bisa penuh! *horor*

Tapi kelas gw terpenuhi dengan baik sih. Haha.


#Happy Birthday, Monica
Salah seorang sahabat gw, Monica Dewi Putri,
baru saja merayakan ultah ke-21 nya tanggal 26 Mei 2011 lalu.

Maaf ga sempat posting pas ultahmu juga.
Maaf kasi surprise nya sehari setelahnya, wkwk.


#Random
Gw lagi kangen ama High School Musical.
Gw lagi ga galau sama sekali soal masalah cinta,
padahal semua anggota tim DPI/Koord. gw sudah resmi punya pasangan,
kecuali gw dan Carola, Koordinator Komisi 2.
Semoga dia juga cepat berpasangan lah. Haha. :D


Sekian dulu x yah~

May almost end;
have blessed days. :)

+Lyrics of the day+
Golden haze, another morning feels like yesterday.
End of may, a year is gone and I still feel this way,
When we meet again I'll ask you how you're doing
And you'll say fine and ask me how I'm doing

‡ Happy 20th Birthday, Brenda ‡


November 26th, 2010

Last exam with Character Building III was done this morning.
I left to Lime Light Family Karaoke & Cafe at Tanjung Duren,
arrived there at 1 P.M.,
along with Brenda, Dewi, Wien, and Valentcia.

We're going to have fun before suddenly I took off after 15 minutes in the room.
They asked me what happened and I told them I need to do something urgent with my friend.
I ran downstairs to meet Shandy.

Before 30 minutes,
both of me and Shandy back to the room with a cake from Dapur Cokelat and candle of "20" number.
We sang "Happy Birthday" for Brenda.

Today is her 20th birthday.
I planned this surprise just in a moment,
and thankfully, she didn't notice.
Hope you the best ever, Bren.
Be better,
God bless. :)



Unfortunately, Monica and Jeanette didn't make it for on-the-spot surprise,
but they sent their best regards for Brenda. :D
You're blessed by us, Bren. :p

The most remembered moment of today?
The eating-birthday-cake moment.
It's chocolate and cheese cake.
I don't like cheese.
Wien doesn't like chocolate.
But both of us ate the cake for Brenda's sake.
*Again*, you're so blessed by us, Bren. :p

Oh, and the moment Brenda gave the 'first cake' for both of me and Shandy.
Nope, she didn't choose one of us for the 'first cake';
she chose both of us as her 'one-packet'.
Thanks. :D



Once again, Joyeux Anniversaire, Brenda~ :)



+Lyrics of the day+
Its your birthday (we could spend time together)
We gon' celebrate (you and me)
It's your birthday (so baby blow out the candles)
We gon' celebrate (you know)
It's your birthday

‡ 05.11.10 ‡


Kenapa di judul postingan tertulis tanggal 5 November padahal sekarang tanggal 6 November?
Karena yang mau gw ceritakan adalah hal yang terjadi kemarin.
Kemarin ada apa sih?

Jadi ceritanya kemarin terjadi serangkaian acara yang membuat gw sibukbukbuk hingga ga bisa nulis blog langsung di hari itu.
Saat sudah selesai, malam sudah tiba dan hari ini gw kuliah pagi untuk Minor.
Alhasil baru sekarang gw bakal menuturkan semuanya. :D


Jumat, 5 November 2010
Kuliah PSSI jam 7.20 hingga jam 11.00 menurut jadwal kuliah,
dilanjutkan dengan Rapat Jumat seperti biasa di Balkon Lt 7.
Bedanya rapat hari ini dipimpin oleh Alex si Wakil Ketua yang lagi heboh banget di antara kita karena sempet maju untuk nyanyi di Bukan Empat Mata *walaupun off air sih* haha.

Shandy kebetulan mengikuti Latihan Keterampilan dan Manajemen Mahasiswa (LKMM) bersama dengan Regi dari Komisi 2 dan Ester dari Komisi 4.
Mereka berangkat dari tanggal 3 dan baru akan pulang hari ini. :)


Nah setelah Rapat Jumat selesai dan ada kue surprise untuk Setia si Koord Komisi 3 dan Vira Komisi 4,
harusnya Stefanie Komisi 2 juga sih ulang tahun hari itu tapi berhalangan hadir,
gw langsung bergegas pergi ke Indocomtech di JCC Senayan.

Tujuan gw di sana sudah jelas yaitu beli laptop.
Ditemani oleh Brenda, Dewi, Very, dan Rufina di mobil yang dibawa oleh Tante Rita, temen tante gw,
kami melaju ke Indocomtech dipandu oleh GPS Manual alias si Dewi ama Brenda.
*ingat gw ini buta jalan walaupun gw dah pernah ke sana sekitar setengah tahun lalu*


Sesampainya di sana, gw langsung melihat merk laptop yang memang gw incar di pintu masuk: HP (Hewlett-Packard).
Walau selama perjalanan di dalam kurang lebih satu setengah jam gw menjelimet dengan DELL dan TOSHIBA,
pada akhirnya gw *dan teman-teman penasehat gw* memilih HP untuk pendamping gw. *blush*

Thanks udah jadi penasehat gw yang baik hati hingga gw akhirnya beli HP Pavilion dv3 Series di Bhineka.Com.
Dengan segala kelibetan di dalam yang rame gila dan proses ini itu,
akhirnya gw ditemani laptop berwarna hitam dengan desain menarik ini sekarang. :D



Pastinya thanks to my Mom for letting me bought this Notebook PC. :)
I will use it wisely and for the good. :D
Bakalan gw sayang2 dah ini laptop yang uda dilapisin Skin Protector, Keyboard Protector, ama Screen Protector dari Blink! Haha.


Thanks juga bwt Wien yang dah rela minjemin laptop HP nya selama hampir 8 bulan lamanya~
Bener2 apresiasi besar karena tuh laptop dah membantu gw BANYAK banget.
Mau balas budi jg gw mungkin ga sanggup, huaha.
Thanks a lot, Wien~ :)


Lanjut punya lanjut, kesibukan gw ga berhenti di sana.
Menurut perkiraan gw, jam 4 harusnya gw sedang jalan balik ke Binus lagi tapi karena ini itu jadinya ngaret~! Huaha.
Ngapain gw balik lagi ke Binus?

Di hari yang sama alias 5 November 2010,
seorang teman gw yang bernama Adrianus Vicky berulang tahun yang ke-21.
Sahabat Shandy ini baru selesai kuliah jam 5 dan gw beserta anak2 lain mestinya kudu ke Kampus Anggrek dengan kue yang uda kami siapin,
taunya dia keluar lebih awal dan kami terjebak macet.
JRENG!

Alhasil gw segera merubah plan untuk ubah lokasi ke kontrakan dia dengan bantuan Lukman, temen satu jurusan IT si Vicky.
Pokoknya rencana punya rencana,
gw datang ke tempat dia tanpa dosa dan tujuan,
masuklah Brenda, Monica, Wien, Jeanette, Very, dan Rufina dengan kue yang sudah menyala lilinnya.

Ternyata si Vicky ga tau kalau bakal dikasih surprise
*soalnya dia itu orangnya cukup peka~*
jadilah tiup lilin, potong kue *anehnya itu gw yang potong*, dan segala macamnya.


Jam menunjukkan pukul setengah 7 sore tetapi gw ga bisa stay di sana lama-lama,
termasuk untuk nyicipin tuh kue Chocolate Devil dari THE HARVEST.
Semoga masih lo simpen baik2 tuh kue, Vic, bwt gw dan Dewi. hihi.


Happy birthday, Vicky.
Have a blessed life.
GBU always. :)



Oh iya, ke mana si Dewi?
Dia kuis jam 5 sore di Kampus Anggrek.
Jam setengah 7 dia keluar, gw pun menyusul dia ke sana.

Gw sudah janji untuk menemani dia ke Sari Kuring *deket Pacific Place* untuk memenuhi undangan gituh.
Karena dia sendirian dan sampai malam,
akhirnya kami makan gratis dan nikmatin acara yang dipandu oleh Edric Extravaganza.
*bahkan sempet foto bareng. hihi*



Hitung punya hitung, jam setengah 11 gw sampai di rumah dan ga sempet beresin kamar gw yang masih berantakan dengan lemari baru yang bau kayu abis,
lengkap dengan laptop baru yang terdampar.
Usut punya usut nih laptop dah gw urus seurus-urusnya dengan segala macam aplikasi,
sementara laptop Wien sudah gw bersihkan dari data-data gw yang menumpuk di sana. *devilish smile*


AH, 1 berita lagi!
Di rumah gw kedatangan 'anggota' keluarga baru~!


Namanya Choco *mungkin*.
Awalnya sih mau gw kasih nama Iris yang artinya Pelangi di bahasa Yunani,
tapi katanya kesusahan sih alhasil ga jadi.

Pas pertama datang sih masih takut-takut gimana,
tapi sudah hampir seminggu dia mulai lincah gimana gituh. XD
Oh iya, ini anjing betina dink. Hehe.

Kenapa gw mau namanya Choco?
Soalnya mirip ama anjing si Eunhyuk loh~ :D



Sekian laporan dari gw.
Kesibukan masih berjalan dengan Minor, HIMSISFO, dll,
lengkap dengan UTS yang akan segera dimulai 2 minggu lagi.


Have a wonderful moment, people. :)


+Lyrics of the day+
Only you
Can do make all this world seem right,
Only you
Can do make the darkness bright,
Only you, and you alone
Can feel me like you do
And do fill my heart with love for only you.

Only you
Can do make all this change in me,
For it's true
You are my destiny.
When you hold my hand, I understand
The magic that you do,
You're my dream come true,
My one and only you
(Only You by Elvis Presley)
