Catatan Akhir Tahun

Image
Setelah me-review Catatan Akhir dua Tahun lalu, saya jadi bengong sekaligus semangat. I don't know what to write but thanks to Gregorian almanac for giving me a line to start; months. JANUARI New Year's in Scotland!!! Anyone must have been very very jealous of an international girl like me. I spent great time in Edinburgh and Glasgow with amazing Indonesian friends who studied with me in Leeds. Kami nyewa 7 seater car untuk 8 people, dan ended up struggling selama 3 hari di Skotlandia. God bless Reyhan yang hampir menjebak kami di speed camera waktu dia ngebut di jalan tol ; untung nggak ada apa-apa. Selebihnya, saya nggak banyak ngapa-ngapain bulan ini kecuali mulai semester dua Masters saya, dan tetep olahraga, main salju sama temen-temen Indonesia, dan mulai mencoba mewujudkan beberapa resolusi saya. FEBRUARI Bulan yang katanya penuh cinta ini nggak se-lovely itu, saya punya banyak tugas dan disertasi sudah siap menyergap saya di depan mata. Ini dia awal dari langka...

Surat Terbuka Untuk Afi.

Cecil meninggal hari ini karena kanker lidah, tapi justru my attention went to my dearest friend, Afi. Dear Afi, Pertama kali kita kenalan, di kampus A LSPR, Jane yang ngenalin kita. You were with your baju jawa and eccentric appearance, dari dulu gue tau kalo elo seniman. I was right, beberapa waktu kemudian, gue liat hasil karyalo baik visual maupun audio. You were attractive, considering how I define "attractive" guys. Kita nggak ngobrol banyak, nggak pernah sekelas, dan bahkan jarang banget ketemu. Waktu gue sapa lo sebelum lo perform gak-tau-apa-temanya tapi itu buat charity event LSPR di Ritz Carlton atau Sahid, gue lupa. You were fucking awesome with gue-lupa-nama-alat-musik-yang-lo-bawa waktu itu. Gue juga lupa gimana, tau-tau gue bawain alat musik itu di mobil gue, kayaknya gara-gara adimas minta tolong atau gimana. Semester sekian kuliah, kita baru sering ketemu di smoking area kampus B. I remember you were with your cigarettes and Bea all over you as a...

What Happened in Leeds, probably move along (part two)

Yep! less than 24 hours. Nicky Australiano Laksamana. He's the kid! He told me a lot about something, and I treasure living with him in that transition time, and I think he is smart too. He helped me once lifting the stupid drawer and it hurt him I guess, makasih ya dek Nicky! Keep playing sports and I hope the business (and the love story) go (es) well. Wahyu Tamtomo Adi. Rocket scientist, inspiring, patient and loving. Melankolis kesukaan gue ya bang Tama ini. He has this open mid about many things, but still on-hold of many strong principles. I think I wrote one or two about him in my tumblr, yet I don't think he cares. I don't care either whether he cares or not. I just adore him. He's smart and I don't have to wait for one day to be his fan. Boya Subhono. He is taken! He's one hell kind of an engineer who can be really really fun as if he's a social person! He is wise and he once told me what kind of guy to be loved and what kind of to be le...

What happened in Leeds, probably move along.

Silvia Caroline, is always, the only first name that I'd like to recall. A flatmate, housemate, cooking mate, and she's funny. Kalo ada yang bilang bahwa berteman itu ada jodoh ya, then gue percaya bahwa Tuhan menggariskan pertemanan kami dengan sangat indah -di Leeds padahal di S1 kami sekampus, tapi enggak pernah kenal dan ketemu. She's the one I'm gonna miss the most. Andina Rahmaniyah Syafruddin (gosh I hope I spell her last name correctly) was the only female that I'd like to marry if I live another life as a male. She cooks and persistence in what she's doing. It's like she's into anything fun and she means it. Kangen kue kue dan coto andin! Kangen begosiip sama Andin! Lintang Indah Juwita. She's the galau-est and the strongest lover I've ever met. Tau gitu dari dulu gue temenan sama dia waktu kami satu SMA, sayang dulu kakak kelas gue sih dia. She takes care of her friends very well and I like talking to her, abiut anyhing, any girl ...

Reds keep marching on.

I couldn't believe I watched the match again! This time together with Dad and boyfriend. I nearly couldn't feel the cold as the heat of the audiences was so warm. Manchester United has always been my favourite since I was in the 6th grade, and now I'm so blessed to have the chance to watch them play, LIVE, IN OLD TRAFFORD. Other reds might be so jealous of me now. It was just perfect that my Dad, who's been a little bit bored, got entertained and felt the England experience after London. PLUS, boyfriend was so kind and gentle with us. United won and the trip was so smooth until we got home. I totally look forward to another live match, soon. Later!

Desember, lagi.

I am so gonna write so much this month. Udah akhir tahun lagi, anoter Catatan Akhir Tahun pasti jadi most waited dan most wanted yaa sama reader dan stalker gue. Hehehe. Nope, not today, gue bia beberes barang dulu ya buat wisuda ke UK. What an achievement, beberapa minggu belakangan gue sibuk banget dan otak kayak drained serta hati kayak exhausted. Hahaha.
