Wow 3rd post in a month..i'm surprised at myself haha.
Actually i'm supposed to be studying for mid terms now but ohwell..procrastinating away as always.

Last Saturday, i arranged a surprise party for the bf. All he wanted was to go out and have dinner with friends but i added a little more to that. Arranging a surprise party is HARD. geez....and the stress it brought me..omg, but everything was worth it in the end :) Tricking and lying to the bf was the hardest thing to do as he's smart. It's hard for him not to suspect anything.

So our friends came over to our apartment to play basketball and swim. Natalia and i went to meet Natalia's friend cause the bf's present was with her. Jazz festival tickets! After that we went to the mall to pick up cupcakes and get the bf's name stitched to a basketball shirt. With an excuse, we got the guys to leave to the dinner venue first while we decorated the apartment.




We made all the garlands ourselves as we could not find any shops selling them!!





Running late, we hurried to Kenny Rogers, the food and service was GREAT. After a well planned "let's go to UNO-cafe after dinner" we went there to "listen to live music". As the clock struck 12, the bf was called upon the stage and they sang happy birthday to him in Bahasa Indonesia. I was called upon the stage too =_= and was made to give him the cupcakes we ordered. At around 1 am we went home and got friends to stall for time. The decorated apartment was the other surprise!! After that, we just chilled.

I'm glad the bf had a happy birthday and the friends were there for me while planning the whole thing, even stressing together with me and stuff :) Satu Cintaaaa

Oh and did i mention i reaaaalllyyy realllllyyy miss cooking and baking?! :(

Surprise, surprise!




Ciaooooo
Hola, today has been a long but fun day. Had class from 8:00-12:00 this morning and then had to do ALOT, and by that i mean REALLY IRRITATING MAFAAN ALOT of admin stuff. People here work sooooo ineffectively omg. Seriously they enjoy seeing us run from building to building....as if the campus is not huge.

After doing all those shit, we went to the mall to have lunch. I had Pempek and Otak-otak. I looooovveee the otak-otak here! it is different from Singapore. The rest time zoned, for a little while ( I was too feeling too full to play..hehehe) and yeah we still play at arcades lol. After that, we went to Serpong for bowling and then somewhere near our condo for dinner and then cards at our place. damn tired today but that's good cause my mind is distracted. I haven't been able to sleep that well these past few days because i think too much and maybe i nap too much too.. hihihi

Anywayssss, i finally had a chance to Skype properly with my mum and sis yesterday. Told them about all the dramamama and family secrets from the funeral and stuff. My mum looked nice and slim in the jacket that my sis bought for her bday, but most of all, she looked happy apart from when i told her the stuff. i'll give her a belated b'day present cause i know what i wanna buy but have not found it yet. Actually, why am i explaining myself here?! silly.

I was reading my cousin's blog and discovered that we both now have this same attitude towards people and life and stuff in general since my grandpa passed away. We both have the "don't care" attitude. Seriously, i don't give a shit and i will not put up with any shit either. Why should i put myself through shit and make my own life miserable? Life is short peopleeeee, so treasure your own, have fun and be a little selfish sometimes cause it doesn't always pay to be good.

I was thinking about this the whole time and finally had the time to digest what some family members said to me the other day. Honestly, i don't care about the family feuds that happened when i was little. I don't know what happened and there are always 2 sides of a story. Asking me not to call my aunt, aunt just because they are divorced, doesn't that make you guys kinda childish? If you really don't care about her, then why bother about what i have to call her when i see her? I've called her so my whole life, even after the divorce and nobody said anything.

What about my innocent cousins who happen to be the few of whom i'm closest with? They have to see their mother being treated that way, for so many years. Think about how they feel. You guys told me that i was part of the LEE family. Well, tell you what, they are too. So why are they being treated as complete outsiders? Because of this older generation, this younger generation is suffering. Cousins that don't even know each others names.. how stupid is that? And why? because you guys had/have fights and forbade each others children to have contact and stuff. Geez... why the hate?

Oh yeah, and telling me to open my eyes to see cause i'm old enough to judge myself, but indirectly telling me whose side to choose. Who are you to judge and who are you to say that she is evil? What do you know of her after all these years of minimum contact? Well, my eyes are wide open and i see who treats me well and who does not. FYI, nobody does not, not treat me well. I see my aunt, yeah my SAMSAM and cousins rushing down to the airport with public transport to see me off, even though it is for a mere 10minutes and even though i would be in sg for a half year in June and will have plenty of time to meet up then. I see my aunt trying to get to know my bf and trying to make him feel comfortable, I see my aunt turn up everyday for grandpa's wake to stay overnight, even though people are avoiding her. This aunt, is the aunt that calls me to tell me she loves me and misses me AND my bf.

I am not typing any of this to defend her. I am just saying that i am close to her, i always have been and i will not distance myself from her without having any reason to do so. Both parties are at fault cause it takes 2 hands to clap. As i said, There are always 2 sides to a story and this story happens to have motherlots of sides. Those who are not involved should not be a busybody and get involved. I am neutral and will not choose sides cause i wasn't there. If someone is nice to me, i will be nice back. Ganging up to bully and talk bad about 1 person, is mean. Don't say its not bullying cause deep down you know it is. Think about what you said about her to me the other day.

Actually, i was super sad that everything turned out the way it did. You know what? All of you should really reflect on the things that happened recently, or maybe years back. I truly think that because of all these stupid things, that ah gong could not go in peace and I'm really sad about that. He should not have been worrying about ANYTHING, given his age. My heart truly aches for him. Anyway, the one that held the family together has passed on so i don't really care about anything else anymore. I don't care if one of the adults read this post, i don't care if you judge me and i don't care about hanging out the dirty laundry for all to read. If you have done nothing wrong there is nothing to be afraid about isn't it? Why care about waggling tongues?

The best thing would be gathering everyone together and dish out the stuff you are not satisfied with or want clarification of but i guess thats impossssiiibiirruu as you guys are not mature enough to sit and talk like adults but have to scream and accuse each other which would probably result to someone fainting or getting hospitalized lol. One last thing, the younger generation is now more mature than you guys are and even the young ones know how to let bygones be bygones, live and let live. Shame on you.


Ugh this turned out to be a longer post than i expected -__- Anyway, i am thankful for the non negative people i have around me and for the friends i have made that are closer to me, more than my own family. Plus i am thankful of my mum and sis for being around, accepting me for the way i am and last but not least, my bf, for making me a better person. HAHAHAHAHA omg, this sounds like a thank you speech for accepting awards! Oh, and thank you brain, for making me see the funny things in life no matter how serious something is. Goodnight!





I think of blogging everytime i am showering or in the toilet or something. It’s almost my third month here in Indonesia and I’ve settled quite fine. I know right.. time flies! School here is..uhm..early. I’ve got classes that start at 7:15AM. CRAAAAZZZYYYYY! Wednesdays are the worst.. class from 8:10- 17:00.

During these 2 months, I’ve been to Singapore for 3 times and all 3 were to visit my sick grandfather. Happy that I have seen him with CNY and happy that he has met bubs and that bubs is ‘approved’ by him :D The last time I was there, was a week ago, when he passed away.

Actually, today is the day he passed away exactly 2 weeks ago. Some freaky things occurred during the wake though… like my youngest uncle getting possessed by my grandfather, as he was worried about some stuff. My aunt filmed it and really, seeing is believing man. I’m happy that I was the first one my grandfather looked for in dreams.

I dreamt of him the first night and the night he went into my uncle’s body and all the dreams were specific messages. With two of my favourite men in the world gone, the only one left is bubs.

OHHHHHH and apparently, if you've been a good and helpful person the colour of your bones will have patches of pink and green on it!! MY grandfathers bones were beauuuutiful pink and green!

Ohwell, enough of this.

OHHH today is my mum’s bday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM!! Even though I know you don’t read my blog. Hell, even I don't read my blog anymore cause it’s kinda dead haha.

The weather is great! While people in Holland were freezing away with temperatures like -20 degrees, it was hot and sunny here and at least 30 degrees everyday! Wow, that's like 50 degrees difference!

Ohhhh by the way, internet and phone connection at the apartment where I live sucks big time! Internet was fine until the weather got stormy and internet got disconnected. It’s not working properly since a week ago. Gonna buy a new router today and hope it solves the problem! I live on the 25th storey and phone connection is sooooo bad that we can’t even call MacD to order food lol.
Oh and I’ve made some local friends too and that's nice ☺ Funny that literally EVERYBODY uses a Blackberry here. Shopping is not that good here and I’d rather save up all my money and shop in SG. Food here is quite good though! Ok, so this was indo in a nutshell. This post is long enough! Byebye!
