Padma Hotel-Bandung

Been a long time, eh? Not that I'm busy or something. The link of this blog suggested that it was about books that I've written or read.  However, writing a review or even mere opinion about a book is not as easy as one might think. So, because I believe that it takes time and practice to be fluent at something, I started to write about anything that catches my attention.  Lately, my days have been absolutely monotonic and boring and as...

I Need to Explain

Hi,People accused me of being arrogant. Said that I got angry and sad easily.  My friends at junior high school deliberately called me a whore because of my so called "relationship" with an old man. My high school teacher said that I was stupid and manipulative.  I never bothered to explain until one of my friends labelled me "unstable" today because I often deactivated-reactivated my Facebook. And...at this moment, I am very offended because...

They

There are these two friends of mine. I met them for the first time like two months ago.  Both are singles. The man was highly unstable, he has high standards (but low in self confidence even though he seemed sure about himself), perfectionist (though I think it bears the same meaning as coward), and attractive in a damaged-goods way. I think he has some kind of syndrome. I actually read about that, but I forgot the term. I'll tell you as soon...

Elathuria and Numa Child

"Numa Child told Elathuria instantly. 'Lady,' he said. 'I will never love anyone the way I love you.' And much to his surprise, Elathuria invited him to kiss her." 'Quickly,' she said. 'Because the sun is hot and the hour is passing.'"Numa didn't think very much about the significance of this. He was simply happy to be invited to kiss his beloved. And as they kissed and talked and kissed again, the hour of the Nonce ticked away...""This isn't...

Chicken!

The biggest coward of a man is to awaken the love of a woman without the intention of loving her (Bob Marley).I could not agree more.It was like teasing a thirsty man with a glass of clear water without an intention to give it to him for real.  Wait, it was a wrong analogy I guess...because it was more of a cruelty than cowardice. You are smart, right? you know what I meant.  I'm going to tag this with "My Life" because somehow, out of the blue, when I read the quote, I wanted to say,"What kind of man is that? I hate him so much. Even...

What?

I just finished meeting with my colleagues and talked about our annual seminar.  I feel that I have no assigned responsibilities since the beginning.  As a secretary, I should've made meeting invitations and minutes,but...the first secretary, Dini CS, is...what should I call her? very capable for doing it, so...I did not get much to do. As a member of website team, I should've helped my friends with our website,but the thing is...the coordinator never gave me any instructions! (though one of my friends in the team asked me to do some...
