Sleeping with A Superstar

I met Melly last Tuesday, the first time in weeks, after I’d been away for business trips to Hong Kong, Singapore and Bangkok, and Melly’ had been away to her hometown and her fiance’s. No one else turned up since everybody’s been busy (Ecky’s busy with her new boyfriend and everything else, Dinar’s busy’s with [...]

Open Up and Say…..Aah!!

No, it’s not an album from Poison, but it’s literally the “O” moment (in Indonesian, when somebody gets confused then finally understands, s/he would say “Oooo”), or “Aah” moment. Up to date, I never understand why some men choose to be with girls who are totally opposite from them. Not physically, I’m not a discriminative, [...]

Toilet Conversations

Other than in our own bedrooms, the place that we could reveal the truth and reality is in the toilet. Only by how people take lines and turns, I can see whether they’re polite or rude (I was once having an argument with a very high-class lookalike lady who insisted she could go in first [...]

Sloppy Second

A couple of weeks before end year, this girl told us that she’d have a new date: a guy who’s a friend of her friend, British, 37, banker, and lives in Singapore. The friend showed him her picture and he’s interested, asked to meet for a (blind) date in Jakarta in the following week. She [...]

Bila Aku Harus Sabar, Maka Itu Hanya Demi, Karena, dan Untuk Ibu

Paling sebal bila ada orang yang merasa ia tahu dan mengenal kita luar dalam, kadang-kadang lebih dari diri kita sendiri. Paling sebal bila ada orang yang merasa ia lebih suci dan sibuk menasehati kita, padahal di dunia ini mana ada orang yang sempurna, dan tentunya ia sendiri juga penuh dengan cela. Paling sebal bila ada [...]

Life is not that Bad

A friend came to me with a sad news: she just broke up with her boyfriend (again). In almost 5 years knowing her, this was the second time her love affair ended abruptly. Everything was smooth sailing for months…. and then… bam! He broke up with her. She was devastated, she cried a lot, kept [...]

To Wed or Not To Wed…. (deleted)

Only a day after I wrote this, I’ve got a “constructive perspective” from two important people in my life. They suggested that what I wrote here was too personal and it might hurt somebody, although that wasn’t my intention at all! So I decided to delete the article from public. Hopefully this isn’t too late……………………………….. [...]

Six Degrees of Separation

Six degrees of Separation: the theory that anyone on earth can be connected to any other person on the planet through a chain of acquaintances with no more than five intermediaries. If you click on search engines like Google or Yahoo!, you would find many websites discussing about this theory, which, to myself, is proven [...]

Fall From Grace (1)

We were in the finishing stage of this particular project, when the internal auditors came. There were 5 people: three guys and two girls. All blonde, tall, very young, extremely diligent, always look serious, very intimidating, and gorgeous. The people in the office were anxious because these 5 people came from the headquarters (some country [...]

Overdue 'We'jaculation

Yap yap, the term is taken from, where else!, The Between Boyfriends Book. I find the book constantly amuses me with its witty, cheeky, sensational terms. Originally it is called Premature ‘We’jaculation: “A common dating dysfunction occurring when one member of a couple starts using the ‘we’ before the other is ready.” But actually, this [...]
