Ke-3 Kali

Rela menunggu 5 jam duduk di karpet, ruangan dipenuhi ibu-ibu dan om-om (yang probably udah cinta kahitna sejak masa SMA mereka, tahun 1980s) untung ditemenin Jasmin. Berdasarkan jadwalnya, Kahitna mulai jam 7.00, tapi ternyata mereka mulai jam setengah 11. Biarlah. Semua rasa lelah, pegalnya betis kaki gue, dan stress mikirin besok UAS Sosiologi dan Geografi langsung terhapus, secepat sinar matahari pas Carlo, Heidi, & Mario muncul! Badan langsung penuh energi dan semangat, pikiran udah disiapin lirik-lirik lagu mereka, terus tenggorokan udah siap hilang suara karena nyanyi bareng mereka live itu heboh! Kesenangan gue bener-bener ga bisa dijelasin. Terima kasih ya Kahitna untuk semua cerita cintanya.

'dimana engkau berada, disana cintaku'

The 39th JGTC

A fine Sunday for me would be this, the sexy sound of saxophone into my earholes. Who's up for my jazz baby? Jazz goes to campus is the most celebrated jazz festival in Indonesia held by the University of Indonesia, located in Depok. My dad had bought the ticket for my sister and i weeks ago, as soon as we knew about this festival. and i still can't believe it's happening. today. My sister and i went to the train station at 11.30ish and we didn't sit at all because it was so crowded, and i had to give up for old people who need it more than i do so yeah. Unexpected thing happened, how shitty, it suddenly rained. Like really hard. We arrived at the UI train station and had to wait for a while (which is 10-15 minutes) until the rain eased. When we were heading there, walking, it suddenly it rained again and luckily there's a man who's selling raincoats so we bought one. The rain was really hard, my wakai shoes was all wet. What a funny experience is this, i didn't felt disappointed, i laughed a bit with my sister instead, just enjoying every minute of it because unexpected experience like this won't happen twice in your life. Through the struggles fighting the rain and we finally arrived.

The struggle, but it's okay because i'd do anything for a jazz festival

the tiredness bc of the struggle literally disappear
when we arrived

*excitement*

So happy i got to be in the front and he was so hyped! Literally, once you get
too see him live, your heart will melt bc he's just so good and he'll make
 you feel like you just always want to dance!

People don't really know his songs, i even find it hard to memorize the tune because it's pretty hard, his songs are so different than any other artists/musician and he combined his beautiful low voice with the sound of saxophone which i found incredibly sexy. Even though he's an Indonesian, he only wrote one song with our language on his album ("Satu Rasa"), and the reason is because he's not poetic. He also sang this mashup of Work and One Dance and i'm not lying but i felt like the craziest, literally dance and move my hip out of control that he even looked at me for 6-7 sec and my heart hurts because damn.

My favourite part was when he sang "Real Love".

We weren't that exhausted after watching Teza, but we were starving. Took a break by went to the food court, I ate Hokben and my sister ate her all time fav which is Mujigae. Sadly, i have to pee. The worst thing that i hate the most during festival is 'when i gotta pee' time. Because the toilet is small and t uncomfortable, the line is as long as an anaconda probably and i have to wait up in the line. Raisa is going to perform at 7.15pm. It's still 4.45 right now, after i pee, my sis and i are planning to watch Raisa, but it's already crowded, how crazy is this, the people are waiting for her, standing and waiting until their legs sore (probably). I really wanna fight the crowd, and i thought i could handle it, but not for long i find it hard to breathe, even move. So we went to eat snacks this time, my sister bought some french fries and i bought hotdog and we shared our some chatime hazelnut latte. After that we visited the Jazz History Museum. It's so pretty. The museums tells us how it begun, how did this taste of music spread out and who did it, also shows us the jazz events from time to time chronologically.

took this shot of a couple looking at some legendary jazz
musicians.

the festival night lights, walking through the crowd

Since the 28th of October, i''ve waited to see another Kahitna performance again, and they are going to perform here, on JGTC. Not that my mom doesn't allow me to watch it, but the bad news is that they're starting at 11pm until 12 past and the last train that goes to Cikini station from the UI station is 9.45pm. I am beyond sad. Like really sad. But that's okay i still can see my babies on the 8th of December, they're going to perform at Ritz-Carlton for free. It's on Thursday and i know it's during school final exams but who cares. wkwk. I even checked out the stage where Kahitna is going to perform and it's already crowded. It's not even 10 or 11 yet it's literally 8pm-ish and the fans are waiting for them 4-5 hours before! The crowd's insane.

make it hard to breathe. and move

but it was beautiful.

My sis and I strolling around, watched some gigs and artist that we don't even know but just enjoying the sound of jazz and saxophone into our ear holes, literally. It's nice to enjoy, it's nice to have parents who let their kids goes to this kind of stuff, it's nice that jazz actually exist, the point is that, i'm so blessed. My sis and i sat down watched Grace Sahertian and Renata Tobing. When they were finished, which means 15 minutes before Dikta Project about to start, the girls were in a rush to move forward near the stage because every girl is crazyy about him. Luckily, i felt like i got the best spot, i'm sure i was as close as one meter to him. Pradikta Wicaksono you are crushing my heart.

The night ends by seeing him,
playing the blues with so much love.

My sister and i left 10 minutes before Dikta Project was about to end, ran to the train station, because we went out of the Univ pretty late and scared if we couldn't catch the train, So we ran and when we went inside the train, we realized that our body was full of sweat and we stink, like really stinks. Stand, holding the hanger, because the seat was full, after standing through 5 stops we finally took a seat. Arrived at the Cikini station at 10ish (as far as i remembered) and my dad picked us up there. When we arrived home, i took a shower and before i go to sleep i posted this shot of Teza on my instagram and 5 minutes later i realized that he actually liked the pic, and it made me scream. Sigh, today was good, full of bless, until next time, love. 

Another Unexpected

Udah mati rasa, kaki semutan, kelopak mata tambah lama tambah berat dengerin Bu Rina presentasi Biologi dan kata-kata biologis yang bikin saya sangat pusing, yang bakal ada di UAS dan jujur selama dia presentasi yang ada di kepala gue cuman suara saxophone kemarin dari JGTC, berasa di fantasi dan sekarang dengerin jenis-jenis virus dan bakteri Padahal kemarin baru JGTC rasanya ada di fantasi dan sekarang *sigh. Tiba-tiba pas bel istirahat ke-2, gue liat Jasmin dan mba gue di depan jendela kelas dan mereka bawa makanan sumpah kaget buset. Yaudah ujung-ujungnya so it was a birthday party (like jaman alay2 SD rayain di kelas gitu wkwk). Nyokap juga bawain speaker, balon, dekorasi, literally everything. Ini dikirim malaikat atau gimana sih. Couldn't get anymore blessed!

dear cowo x iis 4, maaf gue suka marah-marah dan jutek ke kalian (yaiyalah
kalian berisik banget main coc doang kan bikin gue pusing pala barbie)

and i'm glad to have these gals, thanks for keeping up with me 

and sigh Bu Cantik maaf selama ibu presentasi aku jadi
ngantuk parah gangerti, tapi aku sayang ibu.

*mind my face emagod to my mom and sister, a big thank you for throwing out
 this very unexpected party, and for literally everything in life you make me
feel like the most special!

16 and blessed.

Tambah tua. Okay so there's this Rafliansyah guy yang bilang "gue bakal ngucapin jam 00.00" tapi dia orang ter-omdo se-dunia dan palingan dia juga udah ngorok tidur nyenyak abis main coc jam segitu. But anyway pas bangun jam 11 pagi (menjelang siang banget). Didn't expect my line was full of birthday wishes. And those long writes especially from my close friend, Alisya Praktiko, Amanda Thedrica, and Dita Ueda. Si Rafliansyah omdo ini juga ngucapin, Amel, Alyssa, Gaby, Belinda, Ale, Marsha, banyak. sighs. terharu aja. Merasa dicintai jadinya, no offense.

 I hate being old. Masa-masa harus menerima kenyataan terus harus apa-apa sendiri dan waktu itu cepet banget, rasanya gue baru lahir kemarin. My mom was in the hospital today, dia dirawat sejak hari Kamis, sakitnya ga parah, cuman akibat stress dan capek (yaiyalah punya 4 anak wkwk). Pas gue bangun, dad, si kembar dan Jasmin udah pada di RS kecuali gue. Later on, took a shower terus surprisingly dibikin breakfast set cantik gitu sama my aunt wkwk. Soto. My favourite, tiba-tiba my other aunt, the closest one to my mom, dateng ke rumah and ucapin "Happy Birthday Kaka! Mau apa?" gue jawab "Sushi Tei" and she literally langsung "Kuy, sekarang". Allhamdulilah ngerasa jadi Kilgrave dari Jessica Jones, punya kekuatan untuk nyuruh orang untuk memenuhi kemauan (mentang-mentang tahun baru sendiri). I'm not going anywhere tanpa my uni kesayangan, jadi kita jemput Jasmin di RS Omni dulu, my aunt juga turun untuk look after my mom and dia baik-baik aja, kelar nanti sorean katanya and she let me go. Nyampe di  Kelapa Gading, i literally ate so much, kayak udah hamil susah gerak abisnya kenyang banget-banget. Sudah lama tak berjumpa dengan Sushi Tei.

Sudah makan kenyang dan ngopi cantik di sbux, gercep pulang terus acara ke-2, kondangan di Mulia dari auntie (anak pertama my grandma wkwk). So excited. Ibu juga udah pulang, terus ibu beliin kue (yawoh feel so blessed) *suara terompet* surprise!

My life without these beloved siblings of mine would be the definition
of the night sky without the moon and stars.

Makan kuenya nanti karena mau makan di Mulia dulu. The wedding was so PRETTYY semuanya full of white flowers and the chandeliers. The bride cantik parah kayak artis korea gitu, groomnya juga tipe-tipe oppa di drama korea ga boong. There's also this moment where the groom gave him a surprise, and he played the piano for her, mainnya "a thousand years" lagi gue jadi mau nangis *lebay. So beautiful :'( Tapi saya males salam2 sama mereka, lagian kesini tujuannya juga biar gendutan kok. Ada salmon, tuna, black pepper beef, mashed potato. Ah makanan sama dengan cinta pokoknya. So happy.

'hati tak pernah mencari, ia jatuh sendiri'
maaf alay, bunga-bunganya lucu. makasih jasmin fotonya.

 After all that i went home and prayed, thankful for life, and blessed. Bersyukur karena masih punya keluarga, teman, sahabat. Itu semua udah cukup. Itu semua cinta, sayang. (#gaharuspacar). and most of all i felt grateful for being loved.

Reunited

This Sat morning, ngelukis jam 9-11an (as always) terus ternyata plan hari ini adalah diajak kaka gue untuk jalan-jalan sama her bestfriend which is my friends too. Okaay, jadi gue akrab banget sama sahabat kaka gue, namanya ka Kerin and ka Ruth but i called them ka Cung and ka Ute (memang nama panggilannya begitu sih). Anyway, glad that i can get along with them well since i was in the 8th grade and they're on the 11th. Sekarang semua pada udah jadi anak kuliahan sedangkan gue baru jadi anak SMA, and gladly kita pada free semua this Saturday, especially Ka Ute pulang ke J-town dari Bandung. So when we arrived at home dari artclass di kompleks perumahan di Kelapa Gading, langsung ada mobilnya ka Ute (because she have arrived at our house, dia akan menjadi supir kita hari ini wkwk) and brmm mulai jalan untuk jemput ka Cung di Kemang, dia lagi ada acara lamaran gitu katanya. Before that, kita mau liat Ruci ArtSpace di Senopati and i fell asleep on the backseat  while we're on the way there, capek banget, sementara Jasmin sama Ka Ute ngomongin about they're college life, keliatan banget mereka kangen berat satu sama lain. Sialnya ketika sudah sampai di Ruci, ternyata art gallery nya lagi tutup jadi kita duduk sebentar di Cafe nya, ngeliat menu nya rasanya langsung mau cabut karena makanan cemilan harganya 50-60k. like bitch what. so not worth it mendingan nagombing (nasi goreng kambing) pinggir jalan. Change plan, Ka Cung nyusul kita di Ruci and the four of us got in the car. Pas di jalan, pada bawel (especially me) saking banyaknya pilihan tempat makan/ ngopi/ art gallery di J-town yang cantik ini kita jadi bingung mau kemana and guess where we ended up at? Makan sate padang di Kemang.

Then after a full-tummy makan pedes cantik, we went strolling di Kemang, sesat lebih tepatnya, dilema mau ke mana lagi and acting kayak anak-anak norak kaget ngeliat tempat-tempat lucu because how cute they're building is and the design interiornya juga. Tiba-tiba kita bikin keputusan untuk nonton this Ben Affleck movie (aka buff daddeh. sweet) called The Accountant. Keren banget because it's like drama and action at the same time, tapi endingnya ngegantung banget. After that, we decide to go to Menteng, ke tempat ter-pewe dan ter-ga-pernah-bikin-bosen which is Anomali. While we're on the way to go there, kita sempet carpool karaoke nyanyi Starving, Toothbrush, Untukku, Cerita Cinta, You Are My Everything, and Controlla by the one and only champagnepapi aka Drake. So fun it's never dull when i'm with them. Yay sampai! The night with some caffeine, full of love, stories and laughter! Reunions are always good, let's bless this Sat night, cheers.

'the night is still young'

Bazaar

Tidur 3 jam abis nonton om-om kesayang aka Kahitna (kalau ga tau, check out my last post saja). Tidur jam 2 kurang, dibangunin jam 5, betis kaki gue kram, pegel, butuh koyo pokoknya. Nyampe sekolah jalannya sudah kayak orang mabok, nyampe kelas baru bobo 10 menitan langsung dikagetin sama suara dari speaker disuruh ke bawah untuk upacara Sumpah Pemuda. Tapi seriusan pada ngomong 'andrea jalannya kayak orang mabok?' memang gaada bedanya ya cara orang jalan kalau lagi ngantuk dan lagi mabok. like dude. Terus eyebags segede bakpao, juga masih ada hitam-hitamnya dikit bekas maskara tadi malam. Pas upacara, berdiri menjaga keseimbangan tubuh saja sudah susah banget, kaki gue ga tahan, ga bisa. saya butuh koyo.

Sesudah upacara, acara bazar dimulai, cewe-cewe pada ganti baju sesuai dresscode kelas masing-masing. Kelas gue cewenya pakai baju hitam sama kain serut (also brought my wakai shoes bc no way im gon' wear sneakers in kain serut). Gatau kenapa perlahan-lahan jadi lebih semangat, capeknya ga begitu terasa lagi. Let the bazar begins! 'Kami dari X IIS 4 (stand 9) jualan nasi bakar, es buah, salad buah, keripik singkong, etc'. Jadwal hari ini juga ada pembagian rapor, dari jam 9-11. Rapor gue ga jelek-jelek amat lahya, thank god. Acara kayak gini biasanya band SMAN 30 ini memberikan hiburan begitu, katanya yang mau nyanyi juga boleh. I wanted to! Sudah bilang ke kakak kelasnya mau nyanyi 'Biarlah (hapuslah cinta)' by Soulvibe tapi kayaknya dia kesulitan main chordnya, jadinya ga jadi deh. Too bad that it's the only song i wanted to sing, karena nadanya gampang, ga rendah, ga tinggi. Tiba-tiba gue malah dipilih jadi mc sama kakak kelas ini (orangnya genit, modus, mamous gue) gue takut banget kan karena ini bener-bener dadakan jadi mc tapi ternyata juga ga buruk-buruk amat, lumayan bisa. Anyway, let's bless this Friday, bangun diawali eyebags kayak panda tapi ujung-ujungnya juga bisa have fun with my class.

Bisa dilihat dari sini gue sayang banget sama Milo ;)

Cewe X IIS 4

Kahitna 30th Anniversary

I have been so busy at school lately, and this Friday which is on the 28th of October, my school will hold a bazar where each class sell drinks and snacks like dent beans, cassava, fruit ice, iced mango, etc with low price. We also have to tidy up our class because it's a huge mess, and i've been chosen as the chief to decorate this cupboard which is going to be turn into a mini library in our class. I have to make the writings, dividing up each type of books or novels, and the worst part is that no one really give a shit about it. I've already assigned few people who don't have any work to do to come and help but they literally don't care at all and that makes me stressed out. There's only (at least) 3 girls who actually help me decorate our mini library and the class as well. I am tired of dealing with this, where you became the chief but it's just so hard to make people listen to you, no matter how loud you shout at them, so what more could i do?

After school, i rushed to come home, getting ready because my sister, my mom and a friend which i called Bu Pipit (my little brother's young teacher actually), yeah she's cool. The four of us are going to attend Kahitna 30th Anniversary Super Show at Empirica Club, SCBD. I am beyond excited because it's my 2nd time seeing them Live and i don't think i'll ever get sick of it. marks my words. I left my school at 3 past something, arrived home at 3.15pm and quickly took a shower and my mom, sister and I went to SCBD by Uber. One thing i forgot to do is that, i forgot to eat. I only ate noodle at 12pm at school and that wasn't enough. We're in such a rush because there'll be traffic jam during 4-6pm. It's Jakarta! Okay it took one and a half hour to get to SCBD through the traffic jam and the rain! And we've finally arrived ;))

our kind of happiness

I felt like i'm the youngest spectator here, the rest of it was moms aged 30 until 50ish, including my mom, she have known this band when she was in high school in the 80/90s. Bu Pipit came late but the show haven't start yet. I was so hungry and i wanted to pee. I haven't eat anything since i ate a cup of noodle at school at noon. I couldn't go anywhere because once i get out of the crowd it's gonna be hard to come in again, and i'm on the front row. I felt tired, hungry, holding my pee while waiting for the moment that i've been waiting for. I only ate one candy Bu Pipit gave me, no drinks. Waited for 3 hours and when the show's about to start, i lost my exhausted feelings and i felt energetic, my body turns out to be full of excitement.

it's just so unexplainable i am 118/10 happy. They made songs which made people never get bored of when they listen to it. I feel so blessed being in the front row, the starve and the tire feelings, it's all gone. They're in front of me and i just want the time to stop for a while because i don't mind watching them live forever literally. *kok jadi ngmg kayak fangirl

Anyway i was so hyped towards Mario because he's so buff and goodlooking and very very tempting!!! My heart stopped when j reached for his hand and he actually hold mine, twice. There's also the moment when i recorded a video of him being in front of me and he actually took my ipod and kiss the camera while it's recording! 

Trying to reach out one another bc we're in love, right peeps?

that sweet (damn fine) smile which turns out to be my weakness

Let's appreciate the look peeps, if he's not attractive then you're la-la-lying. 

The shows ended at 10ish, felt like it goes on for 10 minutes. Couldn't be any more blessed.

Guru PPL

Belakangan ini hari di sekolah sialan banget gue kepalanya udah pusing (dan tidak ada cowo secret yang nyalain bel pagar, dateng dengan sushi tei/ nasi goreng kambing/ puyo) #ehsalah
Masalahnya adalah gurunya. Guru PPL. Ngapain sih mereka di sekolah? Ok, kerja mereka adalah untuk menggantikan guru yang permanen karena sudah tua/ mau pensiun dan cara mereka menjelaskan materi pelajaran membuat semua murid ngiler dan ingusan mabok tidur. Guru PPL yang menggantikan guru permanen di sekolah gue adalah guru yang mengajarkan ilmu ekonomi, sosiologi, geografi dan sejarah peminatan. Hal pertama yang gue gasuka adalah bagaimana murid memperlakukan guru ppl seperti
"udah deh bro selo saja dia baik"
"gue belom ngerjain pr bodo ah, lagian juga gabakal dimarahin"
"makan kuy di kantin, bilang aja mau ke toilet"

1. Guru sosio: Tipe "yang penting gue ngerjain kerjaan gue , bodo amat muridnya perhatiin atau engga". Setiap pelajaran dia gue sering merhatiin kelas, pada sibuk sendiri dengan aktivitas mereka. Ada yang gossip, ada yang nge-stalk instagram orang, ada yang menggambar, ada yang nyanyi diam-diam lagi pakai earphones, ada yang ngeline sama teman/pacar dari kelas lain, ada yang baca wattpad/novel. Biasanya kalau guru sosio ini udah selesai presentasi (lebih tepat keliatan lagi dia ngomong sendiri karena semua orang literally don't give a shit), dia lempar main quiz gitu. Dalam hati gue mau ngomong "Bu, how can you expect us to answers  the questions correctly when you didn't even care about us if we were paying attention to your presentation just now?"

2. Guru ekonomi dan geografi: Tipe "baiknya 12/10". Known as "guru yang ga bakal marahin lo, palingan cuman bilangin baik-baik doang/ nasehatin". Sebanyak-banyaknya murid yang ga peduli dengan guru ppl, gue yakin masih ada orang (walaupun sedikit) yang memperlakukan guru ppl seperti guru yang sebenarnya (setidaknya) right? Well i am one of them. Tapi gimana kalau gue mau beneran belajar sama konsentrasi kalau yang lain pada bacot berisik kayak monyet harambe gitu kan jadi terganggu dan gurunya gamungkin bisa marahin mereka. Gurunya aja gabisa buat mereka diem, apalagi gue, yang ga punya kuasa. Kasian gue sama guru PPL ini.

3. Guru sejarah peminatan: Tipe "kalian berisik deh, eh ngomongin apa sih" Jadi bapak satu ini ter genit, ter gajelas, dan ter jb2an. Bahkan setiap pelajaran dia, gue ga anggap 'belajar', karena dia sendiri juga terpengaruh sama kita yang ngobrol dan yang lagi bercanda. Gue inget waktu itu deretan meja gue paling berisik, lagi ngobrol-ngobrol sama temen gue terus tiba-tiba bapaknya nyamperin kita "kalian ngomongin apa sih" like bitch, no. Dia keliatan terlalu baik sama sabar juga, jadi gabisa bikin kelas diem, tapi kadang kalau dia lagi presentasi/ ngejelasin materi, dia juga yang mulai bercanda dan satu kelas jadi ga serius dia yang ngajar.

Jadi yang lo baru baca di atas adalah alasan kenapa gue lebih suka guru galak, karena guru galak membuat kita menjadi lebih disiplin dan tanggung jawab,  takut untuk melanggar peraturan, takut kalau ga ngumpulin tugas tepat waktu dan ga berani untuk tidur selama dia menjelaskan materi, tapi tujuannya untuk kebaikan kita sendiri dan kalau dia marahin itu artinya dia peduli sama kita, untuk membenarkan kita. right? Jadi i am, literally, have been through so hard at school towards Guru PPL and surviving my ass off. There's nothing that i can do but accept it.

10/9/2016

This Saturday morning as i woke up about 9am, i was surprised that my mother didn't wake me up because she usually does, to got to ArtClass early before it gets a little crowd. When i came to her room, she was chilling on her bed watching TV. Before i was gonna go downstairs for breakfast, i checked my line first on my ipod. My best friend, Rafa was spamming me and i completely forgot that today, i promise i'd come to attend at her school which is Santa Ursula, because there's this exhibition where lots of university come to her school to offer their program. I left home at 10 past 15ish and i was in a rush that i forget to have breakfast. I was on my way by grabcar and i texted Rafa to come up to her school gate to pick me up. We both run and hug each other so tight, i miss her lots. It's hard to run days without her because i was always with her on the 8th and the 9th grade. I told her i hadn't had breakfast so she showed me the way to go to the food section and i bought chicken teriyaki with rice, sort of like a Korean style kinda food and we went to this spot where it's less crowded. She told me literally everything about this school which is very different from mine. It sounds so strict that made me feel sorry for her and how hard she had been through, but i guess it's for the good. This school's very strict that it changes student to have discipline.

the hallways decoration

Later on, she became my tour guide to her school because i would love to see more of it, it's actually very religious (christen and catholic) that there's so many statues of Santa Maria and Jesus on every corner in every class or being hanged by the hallway. Every class is full of different university,  private or public, they offer the courses that stands out the most. I went to hear some offer in NABA (Nuova Accademia di Bella arti Milano/ International Academy Arts and Design), they're offering courses held by highly skilled educators who are also practicing art and design. I can't describe my love for art and i want to be an interior designer when i grow up ps they also gave me the brochure which i would love to show it to my parents. Then i accompanied my bestfriend who wanted to hear a presentation from IPMI (International Business School) which starts at 1pm and held at one of the classes. It was so interesting and i didn't know that it would be this fun being serious talking about the future and why do we choose it.

hard not to laugh when i'm with her, my best friend

After that i went starving, so does Rafa, i wasn't planning to go buy some food from the food section because i know it's quite expensive, not worth it and i know i will go hungry again so Rafa took me to this food street outlet literally next to her school, where's there heavy food with low price. During this lunch with her, it was my turn to tell her the stories how and what i have been through at my school which i don't really like but what else could i do? i have to accept reality whether i like it or not. Then she comfort me by making me laugh. Lunch with her ended and we walked, having a little adventure bound (like we always do during junior high school after school which i really miss), we went to Katedral Church which i admire so much because of the interior. Took pictures there and realized there was a wedding car but we didn't see the bride and the groom. I wanted to go inside but she doesn't want to company me because she thought it would be a sin (for us muslims) and i was like "No, why would it be, i only wanted to go inside because i'm interested with building" but she still didn't want to company me and i was to scared to go alone. Her mom called and told her to go home, so i walked her to the train station (her was was located in Depok). I wish she can stay longer because we were not finish talking, but, still, i felt beyond happy that i can spent half of this day with her, my bestfriend. Until next time.

it's pretty

Sudah terlalu lama

Gak kerasa kalau waktu itu cepet banget, ngeliat blog yang terakhir gue post tahun 2014. Waktu itu kejam, tidak terasa. Okay peeps, ini lembaran baru, gue udah kelas 1 SMA. Gue mulai nulis lagi karena dibujuk salah satu temen gue he was like "go for it" so yaudah gue lakuin sekarang. Ngomongin SMA, ada cerita menyedihkan. Jadi sejak kelas 8, kaka gue, Jasmin, selalu bilang ke gue "andrea, nanti lo SMA di 77 ya". Mulai sejak itu gue dengerin cerita-cerita dia yang seru di sekolah itu, temen-temennya juga. Jadi intinya gue pengen masuk SMAN77 dan punya pengalaman seru disana kayak kaka gue.

Kelas 9, masa-masa stres dimana gaboleh main lagi, hp disita, les setiap hari dan konsultasi di Inten untuk menjelang UN. Dan hasilnya...kurang memuaskan. Memang bener, kalau ada soal-soal UN yang salah, contohnya pas UN Bahasa Inggris diumumin "nanti kalian akan dikasih kertas untuk tulis soal yang kurang jelas". Rasanya jadi mau protes ke guru. Katanya juga ada pilihan ganda yang salah. Lalu, daftar online di SMAN 77. Ketendang. Masuk SMAN 30. Gue kecewa. Tapi ada ayah yang nenangin gue. "Kakak, kamu mau di SMA Negeri mana pun ga penting, yang penting cara kamu belajar. Lagian, kalau di sekolah itu banyak murid yang malas, artinya kamu saingannya berkurang dan siapa tahu kalau kamu nilainya bagus terus, kamu bisa dapat undangan". Itu hal yang gue suka tentang ayah gue, saat semuanya jadi gelap, dia tetap mencari cahaya. Maksudnya dia masih bisa melihat sisi baik dalam segala situasi. I'm grateful for that. Sekarang udah lumayan betah di SMAN 30. Here's a pic of 17 Agusutus, dimana setiap kelas harus ada pasangan yang memakai baju daerah dan gue salah satunya.
