Speechless
Less than two weeks and I’m off to London for girl’s weekend trip. This would be an interesting meet-up because I only know Nikki who’s originally from here but now resides in Assen, and will be meeting others from Assen and one from Oman! So we could call it an international girl’s trip with jam-packed [...]
Fall From Grace (2)
Warning: the post contains large amount of vanity which could lead to migraine, nausea, or even diarrhea. You have been warned. =================================================================== Too much love will kill you, according to Queen. In my case, it didn’t kill me, but it’s enough to hurt me. Literally, mentally, and physically. Yesterday I had an appointment with other [...]
Wrong! It's Hard To Say I'm Sorry
Why is it difficult for some people to admit they are wrong, let alone apologise, even though they know they are wrong, or proven wrong? In my attempt of trying to understand this particular person who has caused a major headache for the past two days, because I couldn’t put myself in her shoes, I [...]
Let's Get This Party Started
Bigger is better. More glamorous is better. More people to attend is better. Longer train, heavier make-up, and higher hair, are better. The more expensive is better. The more famous people, from caterer, hairstylist, until the list of guests, are definitely better. Anything that screams ‘I’m rich, I’m fabulous‘, is typical Indonesian wedding. Even though [...]
When Things Gone Sour
This particular woman drove me mad almost two years ago. Her twisted mind and even more twisted words were really upsetting, and I had to remind myself that she is married to someone I care about, to calm myself down. That argument is never settled. I kept insisting that she was involved in a matter [...]
I'm Not An Indonesian, Not Yet A Scottish Lady
I think the combination of being in a holiday mood, having too many things to do/people to meet/parties to attend, and having crap internet connection at home, makes me abandoning my blog. It has been over a week and I haven’t been bothered to update it. So I arranged to meet up with Therry at [...]
Certain Friendships Don't Last Forever (2)
Sometimes when you’re sleep deprived, you start imagining things and seeing stars before your eyes. That’s what I thought the first time I saw them. On the way back to Indonesia I stopped over in Singapore to see my best friend from high school, who’s heavily pregnant and ready to explode any day now. I [...]
Spoiled Local-Expatriates
The Writer just wrote about spoiled expatriates, “those who come from developed country and get a job in developing country and live like a king/queen“. With salary which is unbelievably higher than a local standard – mostly due to ridiculous exchange rates and tax regulations – and lots of allowances, they soon embrace a lavish [...]
On Fitna, Bloggers vs. Hackers, and Computer Illiterate MPs
Fitna is a short film by Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders, which explores Qur’anic motivation for terrorism and Islam in the Netherlands (explanatory stolen from Wikipedia). On April 7, Indonesia has blocked access to YouTube and a couple of other websites such as MySpace and Multiply. The Minister of Information and Communications Muhammad Nuh has passed [...]
When Indonesian Goes Shopping
I have landed on a blog written by an Malaysian expat who now lives in Jakarta. Some of her articles tickled me and I just realized that is how people see us, Indonesians. One that makes me smile is to read her amazement to see the ladies who go to shopping malls with big hair [...]
