黄山 a.k.a MOUNT YELLOW part 2

After stopping at Guang Ming Ding, me and ma continue walked the steps to the hotel, people said it is another 3km to go !! (WTF !)

So, we take our time, and walk our passage to the hotel.

Some flowers we saw during walking :

The flowers are so pretty, they helped to cheer up my mom, who obviously struggling when she climbed the stairs.

Finally after a long walk, we arrived in the hotel, immediately checked in, went to the restaurant to get lunch (mad expensive!), we got some left over and decided to bring it back to our hotel, so the others can eat it.

Our room is a 8 people bedroom, with 4 bunk beds. We're the first one who got in, so we choose the bottom bunk bed, near the bathroom, since its seems to be the cleanest one, and the one near the window has molds and we don't want to be in the top, because we don't want to climb more stairs !

We took a shower, then RESTING. We fall asleep immediately, and I didn't wake up till Bill called me, he has arrived.

Everyone checked in to their room, but only our room (mine and bill's) has bathroom, so they took turns to take a shower.

This is situation in our bedroom when our friends are waiting for their turns to take a shower

The girls, Tarcy and Xuying took shower in our bedroom, while the boys in Bill's bedroom

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Third day came, and it is time to go back to the cable car and go down.

The walk will took 2 hours !

But we have to do it anyways, so we walk our way, and it was sunny, so it's nice to walk

Below are some pictures :

 You can have people carried you on their shoulder with this cart. Costs quite a lot, but worth the money if you have a painful joints

Can you see people climbing up that crazy steep stairs ?? We have to climb them too later on.

View from the bottom of the crazy steep stairs.

Mom took the carriage when doing this one

View from the top. Mad crazy ! I didn't dare to go too far to take pictures, I'm scared I might fall down and then I'll become some puzzles for people to solved (or to scooped and throw to the garbage bin)

Some view of the steps we did

Down below you can see the city...Far away down...

Finally, we reached the cable car stop, and we're waiting for Jay, Allen, Xuying and Lloyd, who still have enough strength to see some scenic spots.

Ma, Bill, Tarcy.

Bill was having a major knee pain, as a result of crazy loop he did the day before.

Me and hairstyle of the day, Chun Li !

We took the bus back to Shanghai, arrived at around 6pm, then we ate at Da Marco, Italian Restaurant, head home, showered and passed out.

It was a nice trip !

I'm home...

I am back home
Current position: laying on my bed, with laptop

The past few days we meet up with friends,
Dinner with Marco, Ewa, Tarcy, Lloyd, Jay and Allen
follow by dinner with Michelle, Chase, Silvaria and Silvendiana

It was hard to say good bye to them.
Yesterday was the last day I saw Chase.
We hug tight and it was hard to let go.
Tears are building, and I hold it back.
No place for tears, because we will meet again someday.

Silva, Chase, Michelle and Silvendiana all come to my house, they help Silva to take some stuffs she still can use to live in Shanghai.
They left with tons of stuffs, they even need to taxi it home.
Chase got my little table and the microwave,
Silva got vacuum cleaner, lots of hanger and clothes clips, my bolster (I brought that all the way from Beijing), tons of spices, and clothes organizer.

I will miss them, in fact I already miss them !

As a good bye presents, Chase gave me a double sided embroidery, with a white cat on it, and Silva gave me a yellow La Pagayo wallet which I really wanted, and Michelle gave me a cute wall decoration, with couples on it.

 Me-Michelle-Chase-Silva

I highly appreciate the gifts :)
I love them.

So, yeah, I'm back home and this will be the last 2 months in my life as a single.
Soon I will be married and became Mrs Wynn.

Leaving China...

After 4 years living here, 2 years in Beijing for the whole happy language learning process, and 2 years in Shanghai for the whole experience torture, finally it is time to leave China.
I thought I will leave China easily, but somehow, I feel sad.

Sad to leave friends here.
It feels harder to leave friends here than those in Indo, Bill felt the same way too.

Reason is simple,Our friends here came from all sorts of Nationality, and we will never know when we will see them again.
While friends from home, we will always go back home, and will always be able to see them again.

I will miss Chase, Silva, Michelle, So, Tarcy, Lloyd, Marco, Ewa, John, SongShen, Jay, Allen, Xuying, Chen Ou, list can go on (even though not forever, cos I don't have that many friends here)

The journey in China is over.
We might come back here in a few years for a visit, and probably with our kids, to tell them how their parents met :)
It will be different, but when the time comes, I wish we could meet our friends here.

Bye bye China !
Thanx for the experience and memory I had here !

bitter-sweet

its a bitter sweet memory.
feels the pain and smile at the same time, when remembering.

all things happened for a reason, and this is just for the best.

when I smile more than the bitterness when I remember about it,
then I know that its all right,
and I'm being graceful,
and I don't want to change anything about it.

let the memory live as a resemblance of living.

everything is ok.

 life must go on....

My life is Great !

I have 9 piercings and a tattoo,
what's next ?

I miss beach.
The sun on my head,
sand on my feet.
Warm salt water hugs me tight

I miss the excitement I feel when I read a good book.
One that I can't get to put my book down

I love good conversation either face to face, or through IM's

I love to remember the excitement that I feel whenever I fall in love.
And cherish those calm but mature feel of love when the excitement is no longer lingers.

I love when Muffin being so bitty,
his sharp teeth on my finger is just so cute.

I miss the time when my girlfriends stay over at my house,
we talk and laugh all night long.


I miss the time where I hang out with my best friends, Jojoba and The Blast,
I watch them grow, and they grew up with me.


I miss those times with Britney,
when she was the only dog.

I miss going out with my family,
when it was only the four of us.

I love Christmas, Chinese New Year and birthdays,
if we celebrate at Oma's house, with all the family members coming.

 I am happy that I am able to love, and to be loved.

I am very grateful for what I have.

My life is just so GREAT !!

2009 a Recap

Private Life
I started 2009 by having a party with So, Rossy and Stefan at Luna, Xintiandi Area Shanghai.
With hundreds of text messages, and some phone calls, and glasses of drinks, it was FUN.
I end up drunk and threw up at Luna's toilet, stand in the queue waiting for taxi for 2 hours with So, Stefan, Rossy and Lidia.

Here's some pictures :

So-Me-Rossy

Working Life

SUCKS ! It made me drop more tears than ever before.

So much more responsibility, more things to do, and more scolded.

But in the other part, my relationship with our partner's is getting better.

I made friends with Danilo and Matteo,

I called the export department more, and they get to know my voice now! :D

In the end of the year I made a mistake which drive me crazy and I almost lost my sanity.

Everything settled now and I will just do better.

I went to Beijing to take care of the exhibition, and got some fun time with Matteo and Danilo when we're covered in the dust to see the booth progressing, and plus Alberto when we went to the electronic market !

So, what have u done in ur life ?! :D

ngantuk kronis

hari ini ngantuk kronis
kepala pusing
mata ngga bersahabat
hati degdegan

sminggu lagi
tepat sminggu
pegimana ini ??

degdegan berat nih

ngantukkkkk
pengen tidur... (--")

mau apa sih ??

ga nyangka, waktu jalannya cepet banget. kurang dari 2 minggu, dia bakalan balik lagi kesini.
ke shanghai.
ketika gw uda susah payah menyesuaikan diri sama kehidupan gw yang serba sendiri dan mandiri, tau2 dia balik lagi kesini.
selama 3 bulan.

rasanya aneh, kl dia bakalan ada disini lagi, kita bakalan sama2 lagi, wiken barengan, makan, shopping, maen barengan.
aneh
gw harus membiasakan diri lagi, dan nantinya, ketika gw mulai terbiasa, tau2 dia pergi. woosh, balik lagi kesana.
dan gw sendirian lagi dsini. setengah mati untuk kembali terbiasa sama kesendirian.

gw takut, gw worry.
gmana caranya ? kenapa kok kayanya enak banget keluar-masuk idup gw. datang dan meninggalkan...kasar kedengarannya.tapi siapa bilang perlu diperhalus ??

penasaran, sama cara gw akan menyesuaikan diri kali ini.
berapa lama waktu yang dibutuhkan ?

well, sejujurnya, membiasakan diri sama kehadiran dia akan lebih mudah dan akan membutuhkan waktu yang lebih singkat ketimbang ketika gw harus membiasakan diri ketika dia pergi (lagi)

sebenernya gw mau apa sih ??

bingung

reality strikes like a lightning

tahun ini papa akan berusia 55 tahun.
dan biasanya kalau orang kerja kantoran, ini waktunya untuk pensiun.
jadi, tahun ini papa akan pensiun

DANG !!!
kenyataan seakan-akan menampar muka gw.

selama ini gw selalu berpikir bahwa orang tua gw masih muda, masih akan bekerja, mereka ga akan pernah bertambah tua.
well, sepertinya selama ini gw uda terlalu pintar bahkan sudah terhanyut dalam ilusi yang gw ciptakan.
sebuah image bahwa orang tua gw immortal.

gw :
takut
panik
sedih
bingung

gw takut banget ditinggalin, takut sama yang namanya ditinggalkan, apalagi kalau yang memisahkan itu adalah kematian.

dan selama ini gw dengan suksesnya membangun khayalan bahwa orang tua gw tidak akan pernah meninggalkan gw.

gw gila

kalau orang sudah pensiun, artinya ga ada kerjaan.
artinya mereka harus hidup dari tabungan, or cari kerjaan lain yang gw rasa, uangnya ga mungkin seberapa.
investasi dalam bentuk saham bukanlah tindakan yang bijak, resiko untuk kehilangan uang terlalu besar.

DANG !

itu artinya gw bener2 harus mandiri di atas kaki gw.
ga bisa minta or mengharapkan bahwa orang tua gw akan membantu gw secara finansial, karena mereka butuh uang yang mereka punya, untuk hari tua mereka.

gila kan.
dan disini gw berdiri, mikirin mau merrit ?
hah !
gw ga akan merrit sampai gw yakin kalau uang gw + suami uda cukup buat menghidupi diri kita berdua.
gw ga akan mau bikin orang tua gw kuatir bahwa gw kelaparan or kedinginan, or ga punya tiket untuk pulang ke Indo.
gw berharap, gw ga akan perlu minta uang mereka.

gila...

Reality strikes like a lightning.

Keputusan

gw lagi bingung and menimbang-nimbang.
apakah keputusan yang gw buat ini uda betul atau tidak.
gw masi sering ragu, sering bingung, seringkali pengen berbalik arah.
dan bukannya gw ngga bisa berbalik arah, tapi konsekuensinya pun besar, walaupun tidak sebesar kalau gw tetap stay sama keputusan gw ini.
sering gw berpikir, apa ini yang terbaik ?
apa ada yang lebih baik ?
kalo gw stay, apa nanti gw akan menyesal ?
kalo gw berbalik arah, apa gw juga akan menyesal ?

bener-bener ngebingungin and ngeselin kan.

tapi ya udalah, jalanin dulu, langkah demi langkah, dan analisa setiap langkah.
gw harus berpikir mateng-mateng.

mudah-mudahan, gw ngga akan pernah menyesal akan keputusan yang gw buat ini.

Gw bersyukur

Gw bersyukur akan hidup gw.

bersyukur buat nyokap gw yang baeknya bukan maen, biarpun waktu gw kecil dia bawel and suka ngomel2, tapi pas uda gede dia jadi best friend gw, dari kecil sampe gede gw selalu dimasakin, dibikinin baju, kalo sakit diurusin, diajarin ngerawat badan, masak, dandan, ngejahit, etc. Dari nyokap pula tumbuh kecintaan gw terhadap dunia ajaib yang bernama buku.

bersyukur buat bokap gw yang selalu sayang gw, my HERO tepatnya, yang ngajarin gw nyetir, ngajarin gw nukang, yang setia nganterin gw kemana2, yang ga marah kalo mobilnya kebaret gara2 gw, yang bantu gw dapet kerjaan yang sekarang, yang uda ngasi gw kepercayaan buat skul k cina, yang selalu bangga sama gw no matter what.

bersyukur buat kakak gw yang biarpun suka galak, tapi dari kecil sampe gede selalu sayang sama gw, ngajakin gw main, kalo gw sakit dia yang hibur gw n bikin gw ketawa-tawa hepi. terus karena dia juga gw diajarin buat jadi cewe yang kuat, bisa berantem secara fisik (kan dia rival gw) and ngga cengeng, terus gw banyak dilindungin juga sama dia.

bersyukur buat temen2 yang pada hadir dalam idup gw, dari gw kecil sampe gede, gw beruntung ktemu temennya bener semua, ngga sampe gw terjerumus ke pergaulan yang aneh2 karena temen2, soalnya temen gw biasanya sealiran sama gw, anak2 alim deh...hahaha....bersyukur karena di saat senang dan susah gw selalu ada temen. anak2 blast, jojoba, temen2 di beijing, temen2 di shanghai, yang sekarang ada di seluruh penjuru dunia, di jepang, korea, malay, inggris, etc, kangen sama mereka semua !

bersyukur buat para mantan gebetan, ttm dan pacar. dari mereka semua gw belajar banyak hal, suka duka yang namanya jatuh cinta, sakitnya, paitnya, senangnya, lucunya...kalo ngga ada mereka semua, gw bukan gw yang sekarang.

bersyukur buat semua PRT yang pernah kerja d rumah gw. kebanyakan semuanya baik2 dan sayang sama gw, mba mut, mba siti, mba sri, enje, itu yang berkesan buat gw. yang pada baik2 dan selalu setia bersihin and beresin kamar gw n kasur gw yang senantiasa berantakan. yang waktu kecil gw ajakin main, rambutnya gw acak2, terus ngajarin gw kepang anyam, yang gw ajarin bahasa inggris, yang gw becandain pas lagi sholat, yang cerita sebelum gw tidur.

bersyukur karena gw uda bikin keputusan yang tepat dengan pergi ke beijing dan belajar bahasa mandarin. membuka wawasan, ngasi gw pengalaman baru, bikin gw dapet kerjaan, bikin gw ktemu banyak temen dari berbagai negara, dan bikin gw ktemu sama tunangan gw sekarang ini. terima kasih papa yang uda memberi gw kesempatan emas ini.

beryukur buat kerjaan gw yang walaupun suka bikin stress and down abis-abisan, tapi ngajarin gw banyak hal, bikin gw makin banyak pengalaman, terus bikin gw berkembang. boss gw yang galak2 tapi sebenernya baik hati, colleague gw yang biarpun suka nyebelin, tapi juga lucu-lucu. bersyukur karena ketika banyak orang di PHK karena krisis ekonomi, gw masih punya kerjaan yang bikin gw hidup layak dan nyaman, gaji pun cukup bisa dipake buat nabung.

bersyukur karena gw uda ngga ngebet merrit lagi. malahan ada keinginan untuk puas-puasin idup sendiri dulu, keliling kesana kemari, kerja di negara yang berbeda, baru merrit. tapi uda terikat, jadinya kita liat aja deh ke depannya gimana. tapi gw bersyukur karena ketika temen2 gw pada sibuk ngurus keluarga and anak, gw masi bisa bebas and nikmatin idup gw and duit gw buat diri gw sendiri. toh nantinya gw akan ngalamin ngurus keluarga and anak, sementara apa yang gw alamin sekarang lebih sulit untuk dialami oleh mereka yang uda berkeluarga. gw bersyukur banget akan jalan hidup gw yang satu ini.

masi banyak banget yang bisa gw syukuri dalam hidup gw yang bahagia ini. dan setiap hari gw berterimakasih akan kesempatan yang gw punya.

bisa dibilang, hidup gw sempurna, contented.

terima kasih, Tuhan... n___n

GIGIT !

Gw suka gigit pundak or gigit punggung.
Tanya Bill deh, dia korbannya...
Kalo lagi jalan-jalan, terus liat pundak dia, gw gemes pengen gigit.Jadi gw gigit aja deh...hihihi...kayanya gw ada bakat kanibal deh ! :D

tindik menindik

tindikan gw ada 9 !

pertama kalinya sampe bisa demen itu, gara2 liat temennya temen gw punya tindikan d kuping lebih dari satu. terus gw merasa kok keren ya...

kelas 1 sma tuh, dan gw pun pergi ke TA, dan tindiklah di tempat yang bernama Teratai (ada di TA lantai 4). pertama kali tindik masi di kuping bawah (alias bagian ngga bertulang), sukses, tindikan gw total ada 3 deh ! :D

terus berkelanjutan sampe tindikan gw waktu itu ada 7 (kelas 2 sma).
3 di telinga kiri (2 dibawah, 1 diatas), dan
4 di telinga kanan (2 dibawah, 2 diatas)

Kelas 2 SMA itu, gw ketua kelas, terus tindikan gw yang gonjreng ini, yang uda gw dapet dengan susah payah (ada aja yang ngga jadi, jadinya dicopot dulu, terus ditindik lagi kan...sakit + keluar duit pula !), ketauan sama guru agama. Namanya Bu Sum.
Sama dia tindikan gw ini diaduin ke wali kelas (Pak Heru), dan Pak Heru entah terhasut entah terjepit sikon,akhirnya manggil gw ke ruang guru.
Gw disuruh copotin tindikan yang serenteng itu.Gw tentu aja menolak. Apasih hubungannya anting di kuping sama otak pelajar (walaupun waktu itu gw bukanlah pelajar cemerlang :p)

Karena gw ngotot ngga mau copotin tu anting, akhirnya nyokap gw pun telpon ke wali kelas gw itu, and jelasin ini-itu, bla bla bla. Tapi ga mempan. Pilihannya cuma :
copot anting or di skors.
Kalo uda begini, jelas donk.
Copot anting.

Akhirnya gw copot deh tu anting. Dan gw ngga sabar buat nunggu sampe kenaikan kelas 3, supaya gw bisa tindik lagi :D

Kelas 3, gw tindik lagi, jumlah tindikan pas kelas 3 kayanya cuma 6 deh. Untung wali kelas gw, Pak Feli ngga rese. Jadinya ngga masalah.Padahal rambut gw waktu kelas 3 itu pendek, jadinya anting gw jelas terlihat kemana-mana, tapi dia cool aja. Wong pas gw potong rambut dari panjang ke pendek, gw tinggalin buntut sepunggung aja dia ngga ribet... Hehehehe....

Pas kuliah, kok jadi tertarik tindik udel gitu.
Taon 2003, gw tindik udel. Ditembak gitu, terus kok ngga lama malahan jadi merah & bengkak, jadinya gw copot deh. Tindik kuping aja dulu lah.

Taon 2006, jumlah tindikan di kuping gw uda ada 8. Total gw nindik kira2 uda 15 kalian deh (termasuk sama yang gagal, sama yang disuru guru untuk dicopot, sama tindik udel yang gagal itu...hix)
Gw memutuskan, kali ini mau tindik udel lagi, n harus SUKSES.

Jadi deh, setelah sincia 2006, gw tindik udel. Kali ini nindiknya pake jarum, dan SUKSES !!! sampe sekarang masi ada tu tindikan.

Total tindikan gw ada 9 :D

Kalopun gw niat, kemarin ini sempet mikir tindik lidah, cuma serem, dan ngga demen juga.
pengen tindik idung, cuma dilarang sama nyokap.

Lagian perjanjian gw sama nyokap, setelah tindikan udel gw yang terakhir, jumlah tindikan gw ngga bole nambah lagi.
Kalo mau tindik tempat lain, berarti harus ada tindikan yang dikorbankan, supaya jumlahnya tetep 9.

Nantilah, dipikir dulu....

Sekarang mendingan mikir, mau bikin tattoo dimana and gambar apa ya ????


GILA !

Kisah Vampir

akhir2 ini, setelah baca 1 bundel komplit kisah vampir, makin sering kepikiran tentang vampir.

sebenernya sebelum baca, dari taon lalu pun gw uda sering berpikir, berbicara dan berkhayal tentang vampir (wong gw baca tu buku aja baru januari lalu, marathon !)

Di khayalan gw, vampir itu pucet banget, terus GANTENG, dan rambutnya warna gelap, aga berombak gitu deh...Berantakan, tapi menawan. hehehe....

Adalah pembicaraan tentang vampir dan budaknya, bahwa sang vampir akan menggoda sang budak, dan pada akhirnya si budak akan di sedot darahnya. Tentu aja tokoh di khayalan ini adalah sang Vampir dan gw adalah budaknya.
Settingnya di kastil yang tua, di tengah2 padang rumput. Cih, klasik banget sih !

But however, pikiran gw jadi menyebar kemana-mana. Kulit vampir di bayangan gw lembut, dan bibirnya tentu berwarna kemerahan (menggoda !).
Lanjut terus ke khayalan dicium vampir, dipeluk vampir sampai akhirnya darah gw di sedot, dan kita akan jadi vampir couple. Romantis kan ??
Enaknya jadi vampir couple, kita ngga akan pernah mati. Tapi kalo uda bosen setenga mati, tetep aja ngga bisa pisah, kecuali mau cari pasangan vampir yang baru.

Saking seringnya mikirin n berkhayal kaya begini, lama-lama ide pacaran sama vampir ini mulai jadi nyata. *sigh*

Seandainya, bisa pacaran sama vampir...seru kali ya??
Bersama2 kita berburu untuk meminum darah....yummy... :)

kelahiran kembali !

ih, uda lama banget ngga ngetik disini...
lanjut ah...

Semalem pas tidur, mimpi tentang temen2 smp-sma. senang deh :)
jadi pengen reunian...
tapi sekarang lagi di shanghai bgini, reuniannya gmana ya??

bangun tidur eh, malah terinspirasi buat bikin puisi.
jadi deh tuh puisi berjudul "ketika bumi berselimutkan putih"

ah, akhir-akhir ini lagi banyak yang dipikirin.
kebanyakan ya hidup pribadi sih.
dari yang namanya merrit, vampir, masa depan.
pusing.

pengen kawin sama vampir, gimana caranya ya ??
kebayang ngga tuh, merrit sama vampir yang pucetttt terus suka minum darah ??
hix !
palagi kalo vampirnya mancung n rambutnya rada2 keriting-berombak gitu. hihihihi...
kebanyakan mimpi nih !
biarin deh, bermimpi selama mimpi itu belum dilarang...hehehe....

di kantor ga da kerjaan.
enaknya ngapain ya ??
bingung.
