Friday Five#3

Ehm...

Setelah berminggu-minggu nggak ngisi blog, saya berhutang 5 posting Friday five. Entah kenapa, pasca liburan saya malah lebih rajin nulis di blog puisi dan blog satu lagi. Glek. Yak mari, 4 jum'at sudah terlewati, berarti 4 posting friday five yang masih ngutang (+ 1 posting untuk jum'at ini) akan di recap dan dirangkum dalam 1 posting friday five ini. (Pusing gak sih bacanya? Berasa inception gitu, 1 posting friday five tentang five fridays. Pusing deh.) So, here's my Friday five list!

1. Fiday, Dec 2nd, 2011. Jum'at ini adalah salah satu jum'at super riweuh. Selain kerjaan saya (dan kerjaan patjar) yang sedang menggunung -> nasib dikerjar deadline sebelum vacation, ada beberapa hal yang nggak  sesuai rencana. Misalnya, Patjar supposed to do his final fitting for the tailored suite on this friday, but due to some reason, the tailor delay the fitting til saturday/sunday. Okay, saya mulai panik, takut jas si patjar gak akan beres sebelum kita liburan ke xinjiapo. Baydewey dress saya yang ditambahin lengan juga baru akan selesai hari minggu nya. Yah sutralah... Anyway we were pretty excited since we're about to have our year-end holiday in few days. Yuhuuu!

2. Friday, Dec 9th 2011. The wedding friday! This friday is the day when me, patjar and my HYLI friends follow the procession of Vincent and Sereen's wedding. From the gate crashing (with marvellous superheroes and Superman as our chauffeur) , tea ceremony in both groom and bride's place, first visit to the newly wed apartment - with all white and chic interior - (which looks like just popped out of an interior design magazine. Swear to god it was THAT chic), to the wedding solemnization and reception dinner (Oh how I looove chinese wedding dinner. Food was coming out like crazy :p) . It was a tiring, but a very fun and memorable day! And the best part is that patjar got to meet my HYLI friends and got HYLI approved stamp :p. Oh btw patjar wore his new tailored suit and he looks awesome. I was figuratively drooling over him :p Di hari Jum'at ini, saya dan patjar sudah di xinjiapo semenjak hari rabu, dan baru akan pulang selasa minggu depannya. We had a wonderful time! Kayaknya soal liburan ini perlu posting tersendiri deh, hihi

3. Friday, Dec 16th 2011. Yak, Jum'at yang aneh, imbas efek capek habis liburan dan masuk di tengah minggu dimana di kantor sepi karena pada ikutan training M/LWD di SLB Manggar (in which saya gak bole ikut, karena selain jaga kandang, saya yang notabene mantan M/LWD dianggep sudah khatam dan gak perlu ikut training. nyeh, padahal kan pengen ke base dan curi curi pandang ama patjar yang lagi kerja --> ketauan buruk niatnya:p) . Jum'at ini ada 2 farewell di kantor. Satu acaranya temen baik saya yang resign karena pengen kerja di p****m*na jakarta (dimana saya lupa bawa parting card yang udah di bikin dari rumah, jadi siangnya mesti ke tempat mbak ika untuk numpang bikin parting card :p) , satu lagi adalah acara farewell sekretaris departemen saya yang juga bakal pindah ke Jakarta (ada apa sih dengan Jakarta?? pada pindah kesana semua nampaknya?!) tapi tetep di comapny yg sama. Habis dua acara ini, saya ngibrit untuk ujuan oral di Alliance Francaise (dan belum belajar T_T) J'ai de la chance, I got quite a good total score :p

4. Friday, Dec 23rd 2011. Jum'at dimana kantor nampak seperti kuburan, saking sepinya. (Hampir) semua orang sudah pergi cuti natal/tahun baru dan tinggalah saya dan beberapa orang jaga kandang.  Jum'at ini saya berencana pulang cepet karena si Patjar mau manggung (dan sudah latihan nyanyi dari malemnya) buat acara Jum'at Dahsyat a.k.a JuDas (ampun deh namanya) di SLB Manggar. Si patjar ini aslinya drummer, tapi karena dia sadar drummer kurang dapet jatah difoto, beralihlah dia ke vokalis. Sayangnya, kerjaan saya lagi banyak-banyaknya, jadi saya baru sampai jam 5 dan.....penonton sudah pada bubar. T__T Jum'at ini pun saya pacaran sama kasur, bedcover dan bantal guling karena sehabis nyanyi-nyanyi (dan menang lomba band nya kayaknya), si patjar mesti lembur. Oh, akhirnya saya bisa bermesraan lebih lama sama si kasur empuk...I love my bed (and sleeping), seriously.

5.Friday Dec 30th 2011. Jum'at hari ini, the last friday of the year! Looking back, I have awesome fridays this years. Well, I have an awesome years in a whole. The Big Guy has been so kind to me, my family and patjar and his family this year. Yes, I had my ups and downs, mais c'est la vie... Ujian di tahun ini banyak sekali, tapi pelajaran yang saya dapat lebih banyak lagi. Saya belajar menghadapi ketakutan dan kehawatiran - hantu yang saya ciptakan sendiri. Bahkan di tengah-akhir tahun ini saya belajar mengkonfrontasi masalah dan si penyebab masalah (Yes, you know who you are, and you are forgiven but never forgotten. I am just glad that I had faced you once, and for all). Saya hidup lebih sehat. Saya (mungkin) akan pindah dari log analyst tunu field menjadi petrophysicist data management (yang masih sesekali membantu operational tunu field). Saya punya keluarga yang baik dan patjar  yang membuat hidup saya luar biasa. Hallo 2012, Saya punya harapan yang saya gantungkan tinggi di tahunmu lho ;) Semoga semua lancar, amien. 


That's a five Fridays in Friday five, that's a wrap for this year! Btw saya sedang merencanakan acara tahun baru di balikpapan yang "menyenangkan" ini. Ada beberapa opsi, but definitely me and patjar will have bbq with D&M technicians and FEs, alongside with some friends of ours. Habis itu entah kemana. House of Masquerade, maybe? :p *ngarep*. Anyway, buat yang tinggal di balikpapan, ada 2 spot kembang api (yang sejauh ini saya tahu ya..), yaitu di Balcony city mall dan mall balikpapan baru. Eniwei, Selamat Tahun Baru 2012!  Be good, 2012, Insya Allah :)

Friday Five#2

My week, in recap:

1. Preparation for SG's holiday and Vincent's wedding: Got our IDR exchanged with quite a rate to SGD, Got our new schedule revision (the risk of taking low cost airline - they can change your schedule to a weird hours. Nyeh), Got our itinerary planned and such. The highlight is that Patjar got his new suite tailored and I got my old dress remade. I did accompany him from buying the textile (from an old shop in Pandansari - a good place to shop good stuff with reasonable price in Balikpapan) to choosing the style and details in the tailor. For the price we paid, I think we got ourselves quite a bargain :p. I just can't wait for the final fitting *grin*

2. Just found out that there's gonna be ZoukOut 2011 on Dec 10th. Wow. The wedding will be on 9th and since me+patjar bailed out from watching the wicked musical, then I was thinking...maybe....just maaaybe...we can go to ZoukOut. Gonna be fun! Update: All happy hour tickets are sould out. Our option now are the buying-in-advance ticket or on the spot ticket. Le sigh.

3. One of my closest friend in the office is....*drumroll*...resigning. Third person resigning this year. I am happy for her, though, since she's going to move to Jakarta, working as permanent employee in the national oil company. Well needless to say I'll definitely miss her. She's one of a few people that I can really have a nice, deep, and sometimes out-of-the-box-kind of conversation with. But hey, this means we can go out whenever I go back to Jkt :p. On the other side of the coins, this means more workloads for moi, since the two newbies are still on the training. Ngok.

4. 9GAG is Awesome. Period.

5. Remember the weekend trial for BeneFit Smokin eye palate? I nailed it. Totaly 100% poka-yoke*. So now I can safely bring this for my vacation without worrying that it'd be useless stuff that eats up my baggage space. Err, I'm a packing OCD. Even a small adding space for eye shadow set (that used to be predicted  as useless stuff) can worry me.

And to close this FF post, I present you, courtesy from 9gag that somehow is.. so me.
Exactly. 




*Poka-yoke is a Japanese term for fail-proofing, used in Lean. Guess how did I know this? Yes, my ME boyfriend gave me a Lean lecture (from the types of waste to the Poka-yoke) while I was doing my smoky eyes trial. Guess how geeky cool is that?
