Pinnacles Desert

Had a long trip with my man to Pinnacles Desert yesterday. It took about 4 hours driving from Perth. I couldn't remember exactly why we both chose this place to go. Perhaps my man mentioned that before hehehe. A night before we went, I checked online the directions to drive there. Mr Google (Maps) helped me a lot till I found the detail ways to go.

Yesterday, we just relied our trip on a route-paper that we got from Google. Thank God, we arrived SAFELY at Pinnacles without getting any lost on our way there. Yes! It was about 1PM. And, the Mr. Sun was shining brightly. It was so damn hot then I got sunburnt all over my face, hands, and feet. We thought that it would be such a wonderful and attracting place to enjoy but in fact we don't quite enjoy that place as well due to the HEAT of summer sunshine. But, I gotta admit that the pinnacles were really awesome. I can't believe that those are real. Before going back home, we tried the Pinnacles Drive which allows us who bring our own car driving around the desert. What a cool experience ever we've tried!

Tik Tok - Glee

This 14th episode of Glee season 2 is really cool. The conclusion we can get of this movie is just drink responsibly or it would be better if we never get drunk at all hehehee. Being an alcoholic does never make you look cooler than you are. And yeh, you can go wild without hanging over.

Watch this video and you'll realize how great Brittany is. Go Kesha! Go Brittany!

Yahooooooo :)

BB P A Y A H !

Tadi pagi waktu bangun, utak-atik hape pacar. Aku pake BB, dia pake ipon. Tiba-tiba tangan gatel banget aja gitu pengen utak-atik camera app di iponnya pacar hehehehe. Eh seriusan ya pake instagram dan pudding camera yang notabene was recommended oleh Wendy beneran asik banget. Sekali nge-click tinggal diatur mau warna kayak gimana langsung okeh deh.

Nah ini, malah hape kesayangan sendiri gak bisa diapa-apain. Payahnya pake BB. Camera apaan kalo cuman standar gini. Haiyaahhh!!

Weekend minggu kedua di sini

Seneng sih di sini bisa ketemuan terus tiap hari sama pacar. Yah walopun ketemuan cuman beberapa jam doang, selebihnya dia kerja ato gak tidur, oh dua lagi, nonton bola PLUS maen PS3. Sembunyi di balik alasan mesti kerja buat cari duit & cari hiburan sendiri hahahaha. Ohmaigottt, ini 2 minggu aja aku di sini *merinding*. Bentar lagi ane pulangggggg.

Oh ya, weekend kemarin (paket : Sabtu & Minggu) agak garing, yah tapi gpp lah dari pada plonga-plongo kan. Sabtu pagi jam set8 berangkat capcirrr ke Canning Market deket rumah. Yang dibeli sih cuman mangga sama semangka hahaha. Trus mampir ke toko Asia gitu beli astor, hello panda, pokka green tea, sama sambel ayam goreng nya ABC. Kangen cemilan indo bok hehehe. Trus mampir juga sih beli spare ribs sama pink snapper. Pulang dari market langsung balik rumah, taruh barang belanjaan atur-atur di kulkas, eh tancap lagi ke Fremantle. Siang-siang jam11 lah sampe sana langsung ke tempat tujuan , makan ramen di Dosuki Japanese Noodle. Si pacar bilang itu ramen paling enak di sini. Nunggu hampir 15mt an langsung duduk makan Prawn Tempura Udon sama Tako Ball. Si pacar makan Prawn Dumpling Ramen.

Prawn Tempura Udon

Japanese Tako Ball

Enak kok emang ramen di sini, yang punya ternyata orang Jepang asli ya, sampe bungkuk-bungkuk gitu kadang-kadang. Habis makan ramen, pulang rumah bntar trus si pacar langsung kerja lagi. Jam2 an berangkat soalnya mesti kerja dari jam3 sampe jam10 malem. Nah kan ya kerja gila lagi. Malem jam set11an gitu kita berdua bikin Snapper Curry, what a big supper! Resepnya pacar sih hehehee, jadi dia yang masak , saya hanya back-up saja bersihin snapper, kasih lemon + garam + merica, potong tomat, that's it! hahahaha. Boleh percaya boleh enggak, enak looo. Sriusan! :)

Snapper Curry Ala Chef D

Trus hari minggu nya, si pacar kerja jam7 pagi sampe jam set3 siang. Mestinya minggu siang kemarin mau rencana pergi lihat Good Vibration Festival 2011 pulangnya dia kerja. Si pacar harusnya book ticket minggu pagi online, eh tapi ternyata setelah chatting-chatting sambil dia kerja, final decision nya jadi : CANCELLED. Alesan si pacar : line up gak bagus. Yak elahhh tau gitu aku pergi sama temen aja, padahal udah diajakin dari hari Jumat lo mau ke Joondalup. Naseb naseb. Nganggur maning nganggur maning. Si pacar pulang jam 3 sore trus late lunch bareng di rumah makan curry sisa td malem pake krupuk udang. Tuh krupuk uda expired bln 04-2010 tapi si pacar tetep maksa goreng aja. Bayangkannnn! Expirednya uda hampir setahun lalu. Pas dimakan enak juga kok tapi hahahahhaa. Rakus rakus. Trus tidur sore bentar, jam set7 pergi ke gereja Christ Church di Fremantle. Sempet mampir bentar sebelum balik rumah ke Southlands beli Utopia sama Nando's take away sih. Jam9 malem sampe rumah langsung makan kelaperan sambil nonton documentary movie tentang BP di SBS. Trus poto dulu dehhh sebelum dia browsing-browsing mau beli lens.

Udah gitu doang sih kilas balik tentang weekend kita berdua. Sekian dan terima kasih :)

Ciao.

Loneliness

I hate being alone actually. I'm having no idea at all of what I have to or should do right now. It's 4:39PM, so there's still about 5 hours left to meet my man after his work. Gosh! It's so very quiet here. All house mates here haven't been home since they left this morning for work.

Agak bete pagi-pagi

Yah gimana gak bete coba, hari ini si pacar kerja dr jam9 pagi sampe jam10 malam. Bayangkannnn! Gimana bs kerja gila-gilaan kayak gini. Ini bntr lg dia uda mau berangkat, trs ntar baru ketemu jam set11 malem. Iya klo bs langsung ngobrol-ngobrol pas dia pulang, kayak td malem aja baru pulang kerja langsung maen PS trus langsung tidur.

Sabar sabar sabar sabar sabar sabar.

Jadi agak bete bete gimana gitu lo. :(

Ciao Italia

I had a dinner with my man last night at Ciao Italia. My man said that there was his favorite Italian restaurant ever. When we arrived, there were a lot of families and couples queuing for having dinner. While my man was parking his car, I ran to the restaurant then ask a table to one of the waiter. Here some short conversation we had last night:

Me (M) : "Hello. Can I have a table for two?"

The waiter (W) : "One sec, please!"

M : "Ok, thank you"

He went inside the restaurant, checking the table for me, and then came back to me again

W : "Would you wait? 8.30, approximately, you'll have the table."

M : "Oh, it's okay. Thanks"

W : "So, what's your name?"

M : "My name is Ria, R - I - A"

W : "Alright then. And, where's the other one?"

M : "Still parking. I think in a minute, he'll be here"

W : "Ah, so you're here with your boyfriend, aren't you? I thought you were here with your kid"

M : "Hah? Sorry, I'm not married yet. Whose kid?"

W : "That one, right beside you"

I looked at my right, and there was a little 3 year old boy standing next to me.

M : "Oh My God, he's not my kid. Do I look like a mother?"

W : "Hahahahaa" (laughing)

Oh, actually I'd like to show some photos I took last night, but it seems like my camera doesn't work properly to connect to my laptop. Ahhhh.. We ate Siciliana Pizza, Cozze Pestacora (mussels in a tomato sauce), and Tiramisu cake. Wuahhhh. We were so full, hahahha.

Last but not least, I loveeeee the tiramisu cake one there. So HEAVEN! :)

One in a million

This has been my favorite song since I heard this song couple of months ago

Jet setter
Go getter
Nothing better
Call me Mr. been there done that
Top model chick to your every day hood rat
Less than all but more than a few
But I've never met one like you

Been all over the world
Done a little bit of everything
Little bit of everywhere
With a little bit of everyone
All the girls I've been with
Things I've seen it takes much to impress
But sure enough you go it makes your soul stand up from all the rest

I can be in love
But I just don't know
Baby one thing is for certain
Whatever you do it's working
All the girls don't matter
In your presence can't do what you do
There's a million girls around but I don't see no one but you

Girl you're so one in a million
You are
Baby you're the best I ever had
Best I ever had
And I'm certain that
There ain't nothing better
No there ain't nothing better than this

You're not a regular girl
You don't give a damn about your look
Talking about I can't do it for you
But you can do it for yourself
Even though that ain't so
Baby cause my dough don't know how to end
But that independent thing I'm with it
All we do is win baby

I could be in love
But I just don't know
Baby one thing is for certain
Whatever you do it's working
All the girls don't matter
In your presence can't do what you do
There's a million girls around but I don't see no one but you

Timing girl
Only one in the world
Just one of a kind
She mine

Ooh all that I can think about is what this thing could be
A future baby
Baby you're one of a kind
That means that you're the only one for me
Only one for me

2nd and 3rd day in here

Astaga ini masih di negara orang ya ternyata. Ini masih hari ketiga di sini. Yah masih agak malu-malu aku malu sama negara ini. Malu buat coba naik bis lagi ke city, malu buat coba naik train juga. Gak jelas nih kenapa kok gak ada nyali, padahal tahun lalu waktu ke sini, heboh banget tiap hari bawaannya pengen jalan-jalan terus. Mungkin karena tahun lalu ada mbak riris juga sama om tante. Kalo sekarang kan sendiri.

Kemarin seharian kan ditinggal sama pacar dari pagi jam6 sampe baru ketemu lagi jam11 malem. Udah mau mati kebosanan kemarin. Nonton dvd, browsing, chatting, makan, tidur-tiduran kerjaannya. Oh di sini, juga sekalian bersih-bersih sendiri lah. Nyapu, ngepel, nyeterika, nyuci piring, ngelipetin baju, sampe bersihin kasur harus sndiri. Nih badan mau rontok rasanya. Jadi pengen manggil Mbak Wati di Dieva Opak Surabaya buat minta tolong body spa aja rasanya. Kalo di rumah mah pokoknya tau beres, kan ada si Mbak Mi yang bersihin rumah. Ini nih bedanya Indo sama negara orang ini hahaha. Trus-trus lanjut soal kemarin malem, jam8an gitu si Wendy dateng ke rumah pacar jemput aku maen ke rumahnya trus ngajak minum Utopia. Nah ngobrol-ngobrol lama, gak nyadar kalo si pacar udah sms buat nanya kunci rumah. Amsyong ternyata kunci rumah kebawa sama aku. Begokkkk! Untung waktu sampe rumah, si pacar gak marah. Yah nggondok nggondok dikit lah trs aku nya langsung dimaafin kok hehehee. Thanks buat Wendy & pacar yang uda ngajakin keluar + nganterin pulang lagi hehee.

Eum, sekarang lagi tungguin pacar pulang kerja, katanya sampe sore. Rencananya mau jalan-jalan pulang nya dia kerja, tapi kok agak kesian gimana gitu. Tadi malem, dia baru tidur jam2 pagi gara-gara utak atik camera EOS nya gitu. Kita sharing lah teknik fotografi, diskusiin hasil jepretannya dia ma jepretanku. Udah tidurnya pagi banget, eh mesti bangun jam5 gara-gara mesti brangkat kerja jam6. Yah let's see lah ntar gimana. Kalo mis capek, ya uda gak usah jalan sih juga gpp.

Huahh, lanjut nonton Glee lagi aja deh.

i'm somewhere

Oh hai Februari! Uda lama gak ngepost lagi.

Aku baik-baik saja. Semoga di Bulan Februari ini aku akan tetap baik-baik saja.

Eum, randomly ya, I was so shocked to hear that Adjie Massaid, one of the most popular artist in Indonesia, died suddenly at the his young age due to heart attack. Yak ampunnn, kesian banget ya. Kita emang gak akan pernah tau hidup mati kita gimana. Orang yang seger bugar aja bisa meninggal dadakan gitu. Yah mulai sekarang, harus lebih baik lagi dalam bersikap, berkata, dan berpikir selama kita masih hidup.

Oh ya, aku sekarang di Perth. Dalam rangka apa sih gak jelas, ya liburan, ya jalan-jalan, ketemu pacar, ketemu temen juga hehehe. Baru aja pagi ini sampek jam4 subuh td. Agak deg-degan juga td malem sampe sama sekali gak tidur di pesawat. Untungnya, smua berjalan lancar. Pas di custom pun gak ditanyain macem-macem. :) Oh tapi agak bete juga waktu di Ngurah Rai Airport. Berhubung aku perginya naik AirAsia supaya irit cost, beneran ternyata mereka juga irit informasi. Di boarding pass ku, tulisannya aku masuk di "GATE 6". Nah, uda ditungguin lama di depan gate, ternyata gate nya dipindahin sakarep udel nya sendiri. Gitu gak pake kasi announcement jugak. Kebangetan banget banget kan!! Untung, aku ketemu sama 1 keluarga yang juga mau berangkat ke Perth dari Semarang. Mereka pada ribut pindah tempat alias gate soalnya td si tante nya itu sempet jalan sampe Gate 9, trus dia kok liat bule-bule pada masuk rame. Dia jg denger petugas nya teriak, "DARWIN BOARDING!, KALO YANG PERTH NANTI DULU". Curiga dipindahin gatenya, dia balik ke Gate 6 trus ajakin semua keluarganya pindah ke Gate 9. Untungggg banget aku duduk deket sama keluarga mereka di depan Gate 6, kalo enggak kan panjang urusannya. T*i banget emang AirAsia. Begh!

Sekarang si pacar lagi kerja. Tiap hari kerja terus dia. DASAR! Uda jauh-jauh dateng ke sini, ya tetep aja ninggal kerja. Ahh semoga aja liburan kali ini menyenangkan. Aminnn.
