#23 Apa Kabar Cemi?


This week has been extremely dreadful!
I’ve spent too much time working…working…working….
My cellphone rang rang and rang with some calls I would like to avoid (so badly annoying, made me have to turn it off before I go insane)
I was sleepless.
I missed my weekend.
I can feel my muscle twisted.
I’m exhausted.
I’m in terrible mood.
Please do not disturb!


Singing Sound of Music’s soundtrack “My Favorite Things” inspired me to memorize few my favorite things that probably could calm me off. And the words resembled in my head are just “Cemi,Cemi and Cemi”.

Cemi has always been ‘my shoulder to cry on’ when I was in Bandung. Well not literally of course, recalling her shoulder is not wide enough for my head. But hold her tight and feeling her purr used to give extra comfort anytime I was crabby. And the world will be just fine, the entire burden vanished.

When I had to stay up late to do extra task, she used to come to my room, jump to my keyboard, prevented me to do what I was doing, and I bet no one could stand it to see her funny body language. Few minutes spent playing with her was enough to burst up my energy to the next morning.

Cemi was the best friend I need when my human fellows were not available. Undoubtedly, pets are very sincere friends (except when they’re hungry I think ^__^).

*sigh*Apa kabar, Cemi? Missing you much, Girlfriend…

Anyway, having hug from a husband is comforting as well..love you too,Husby..

#21 From 1981 To 2006

New dawn is rising
Marks up a new day
Its light brings a new hope
It’s the same sun that I’ve seen for the last 25 years


There was a time when I had changes to mesmerize that nature phenomenon with a clear panoramic view
I waited it came out day by day
I notice that the hue always change
One day it was yellow and pinkish
At the next day it was silver and blue

I am grateful that God still gives me time to enjoy his work of art
Through the sun, the light, the sea, the people, the land, the air breeze and many more
But I know I have to aware that the world changes
I have to be ready for the changes
When one day the light go dimmer
When the sunrise no longer blue, pink, yellow or silver
….but dark cold black
When the people I love all die

So God please hear me praying
Gratitude for all your bless
Acceptance for all Your will
That are all I asked…

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!
Thank you body, you are the best vehicle I've ever had
Thank you mind, you always courage me to moving forward
Thank you soul, for keep me connected to Allah
Thank you spirit, you always remind me to keep myself sane

#19 Teh Inong - An Obituary

I’ve never met her
I didn’t know her
I don’t even know her face

Coincidently, yesterday I found link that guide me to her blog
Unfortunately she had passed away
Just a few days ago, on September 2nd

Reading her blog breaks my heart
She was a wife
She was a mother of two
A boy and a girl
She was a friend of many people
Not to hard to find out why

Reading her blog makes me feel sorry
How come I didn’t know her before?
While she was alive
While she was able to communicate with us
While she was doing her routine, sharing her thought

Reading her blog makes me happy
Knowing that many people love her, then, now and always
Knowing that she was blessed with wonderful husband, kids and friends
Knowing that she filled her life with precious things

Teh Inong, you left all of us. Yet with your absence you still inspire others.
So I’m thanking you.

Farewell, hope you’re doing well up there.

Allahumma firlaha,warhamha,wa’afiha,wafuanha
Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi roji’uun

#18 Still Learning To Be A Human

Meet Mocca.
He is my Boss’ golden retriever. I’m not a dog lover, but I have to admit that Mocca is one of the most beautiful and the most well-behave dogs I’ve ever met.


Okay, I would not tell you much about Mocca, it’s about my Boss funny habit that I couldn’t understand: He always compare person with Mocca.

I repeat : compare PERSON (homo sapiens) with MOCCA (Canis lupus familiaris)

Not knowing how, he always find any resemblances between his species with dog. I was one of his victims.

He’re the stories..

ONE
During my first week in Bali made a comment about how I dress up.

(For your information, as Moslem women we have an obligation to cover our body throughout head to toe-not include face and palms-).

Boss : "You know, every time I look at you, you always remind me to Mocca? "
Me : "And how come is that? (Feeling annoy to be compare with a dog)
Boss : "Well..you see, Mocca is a retriever with very thick hair, yet he lives in tropical
island Bali..Bet he always feel sweltering.
While you, you also stay in Bali and you always wear long sleeves and
cover your head..
Get the point?"
Me : *rolling my eyes-speechless*

TWO

Boss met a woman who was sharing story about her child.

Woman : "I cannot understand my two-years-old daughter. She always seems frightened
every time she meets new people…."
Boss : "O really? Well Mocca used to be afraid every time he met new people when he was
child as well...."
Woman : (I don’t know what happened next but if I was her I’ll shouted this popular
Indonesian slank phrase..)" Maksud lo??!!"

Boss, with all my respect: YOU’RE ODD!
