Surat buat Mbah (part1)

Mbah sayang, udah lama ya ga tulis surat.. Dita kangen berat, Mbah. Ini ya rasanya kalo ga bisa lagi ngobrol langsung.. Mau nulis surat, tapi bingung mau dikirim ke mana... Mau telpon, nomor yang mana... Dalam hati sih yakin Mbah sebenernya tau, aku gimana, ngapain aja, sebel sama siapa, pacaran sama siapa, suka jutekin siapa.. Mbah pasti tau. Tapi tetep aja, rasanya pengen cerita juga.

Si Ndutmu ini masih betah di Jerman, Mbah. Pindah kota tapi. Sekarang di utaraaaa banget. Jauh sama si Galih di Würzburg. Nama kotanya Oldenburg. Udah jadi anak kota nih aku, Mbah.. Kotanya gede, jauh lebih gede dari Jülich. Lebih rame, kejar bus juga lebih gampang. Sekarang aku masuk kuliah lagi, Mbah. Masih belum keterima master nih tapi.. Banyak bener syaratnya biar bisa masuk jurusan yang aku pingin itu.. Oya itu Mbah, aku udah ga ambil teknik biomedis lagi, tapi teknik pendengaran dan audiologi. Emang aneh-aneh aja cucumu yang satu ini.

Sebenernya kuliahnya menarik banget sih, Mbah. Cuma banyak bener tugasnya dibandingin di Jülich. Udah gitu apes bener, dapet satu temen kelompok yang rada oon. Cuma satu orang ini lho yang minta dibejek-bejek banget. Udah oon, terus sengak n sok tahu bener lagi. Haduh. Terus masa dia bilang kalo aku ga suka baca buku literatur harusnya ga usah kuliah aja. Banyak gaya banget tuh anak. Dapet S1 aja belom! Gara-gara dia, rasanya kuliahnya jadi super berat...

Bawaannya jadi cepet-cepet pengen balik ke Jülich lagi.. Ah. Mbah... Belum sempet aku ceritain kan pas aku semester 6 tahun lalu, aku diajakin main band pop jazz gitu sama orang labor aku. Mereka berempat, cowo semua. Yang dua aku udah kenal di labor, namanya Darius n Mattis. Yang dua lagi aku baru kenal, namanya Thomas n Christian. Awalnya aku cuma ikut2 aja, terus kita manggung pas akhir Oktober/awal November tahun lalu. Sambutannya cukup meriah. Semenjak itu aku resmi jadi bagian dari band, hahaha :)

Dari mereka berempat itu, aku deket sama Mattis, Darius n Christian. Abis kalo sama Thomas bingung mau ngomongin apaan. Pas aku lagi sibuk-sibuk cari kerja, si Thomas ini suka nawarin bantuan koreksi surat. Jadi kita email-emailan deh. Tapi tetep: kalo ketemu, ga ngobrol, hahaha. Bingung juga sih sebenernya, kenapa kalo ketemu langsung, orang ini kaya ga peduli gitu, aku ga diajak ngobrol sama sekali..

Terus akhirnya email-emailannya berlanjut. Dan tau ga, Mbah? Ini orang kalo di email bisa cerita panjang lebar. Di email itu juga dia mulai bilang kalo kita berdua harus ngabisin waktu lebih banyak berdua supaya bisa ngobrol banyak (dan supaya aku juga 'ngomong' sama dia, ga cuma dia doang yang ngoceh),mungkin bisa jalan bareng kalo dia udah libur semester lagi. Kita tiap hari saling nyemangatin. Kadang-kadang aku bingung, ini orang sebenernya emang cuma mau temenan apa gimana sih? Bilang sayang iya, tapi bukan cinta (itu dia bilang juga). Dia bilang kalo diSMSin gitu, jadi super semangat, tapi dia bilang juga "kita kan cuma temen. Jadi, gw ga ada kewajiban buat bales SMS lw ya, Dit". Lho, lho, lho...

Terus satu kali, dia ngilang dari SMS, ga taunya operasi usus buntu darurat. Untung ya rumah kita deket, jadi aku masih bisa jenguk dia malem itu juga di rumah sakit. Masa dia bilang, "gw tau, lw pasti dateng" (haha GR nian orang ini).Terus dia minta dipegang tangannya, minta dielus-elus (huahahaha, yaampun ini temen apa bukan), katanya gini "huh dari tadi kek. sekarang gw bisa tidur.." Astaga orang ini... Akhirnya aku jenguk dia tiap hari. Cepet juga sembuhnya. Kalo udah bisa protes, berarti udah sehatan ;) Tiap hari kita "training", jalan-jalan keliling rumah sakit biar lukanya cepet pulih. Oh karna operasi itu, akhirnya dia brenti ngerokok. Tau ga, Mbah? Sebulan setelah itu, dia baru cerita, katanya temen sekamarnya kira aku itu pacarnya karna jenguk tiap hari. Dan dia tidak mengelak, katanya orang cantik n pinter, kan bangga kalo punya pacar ky gitu.. (yaaah ngareeeep).

Pas udah sembuh, dia jadi sering main ke rumah kalo weekend, sebelum latian band gitu deh. Satu kali aku minta dia bantuin aku buat latian wawancara kerja. Baru deh, dari situ aku yakin, kalo aku sebenernya juga jatuh cintong sama dia. Terus beberapa minggu kemudian, di satu senin, dia cium aku. Dia bilang, "ini udah ngejelasin semuanya kan?" Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Embah! Itu saat paling indah dalam tahun 2014 ini. Hihihihi!

Coba mbah masih di Radio Dalam... Aku pengen banget lho kenalin dia ke mbah. Pasti mbah seneng. Mami papi tampaknya jauh lebih sreg kali ini. Dari segi agama.. Umur yaaa, 7,5 tahun lebih tua pas lah.. Kalo ketemu Mbah, diajarin ngomong bahasa Jawa aja, Mbah. Pasti lucu. Hahaha. Terus nyobain masakan Mbah. Kalo dia pilih-pilih makanan, jewer aja, Mbah! Omelin. Bilangin kalo pilih-pilih makanan itu ga baik. Nanti ga bisa makan kalo lagi susah. Dia ini super baik, hampir selalu ngebelain aku n support aku. Tapi kadang-kadang suka ngambek juga dan super galak. Masa aku ga boleh peluk-peluk pas aku lagi sakit. Tega banget, padahal abis itu ga ketemu sebulan.. Huhu..

Doain aja Mbah lain kali dia mau diajak ke Indo.. Tau nih kok kayaknya sekarang agak resistent. Alasannya sih karena finansial. Bisa dimengerti kok kalo itu. Asal suatu hari dia mau ikut aja. Abis sekarang hobinya ngeledek aku anak hutan. Huu.. Enak aja.

Udah dulu Mbah ceritanya. Aku masih banyak deadline tugas ini. Dadah, Mbah! I miss you...

Bekasi: 1st week

Juhuu, I'm home for the next 3 weeks :) I miss my boyfriend though, too much...
My first week was totally fine, but tiring though. I arrived on Thursday and had to get prepared for the reception of my parents' silver wedding anniversary. I intended to make decoration surprise for them (I made photo booth) and prepared everything from Germany. Generally, the party and the mass went well, even though my whole fam blamed me for they being late to the church, because I locked my bedroom and took the key with me and my brother couldn't take his jacket. Sorry, but I resist to be blamed: 1. I've shown my brother that there is one jacket in my cupboard TWICE (don't ask why it was there, complicated) and he didn't want to take it out directly; 2. I told my fam that locking is not practical and they kept on forcing me to lock; 3. as long as I'm home, I have the right to decide whether to lock my own bedroom or not and where I shall put it.

Anyway. People seemed to enjoy me and Pap singing "The Prayer" and actually, the whole mass. It was glad to see my dad's and mom's friends and relatives there attending the mass and the party. Even I was stopped almost all the time by my parents' friends or relatives to talk for a while. I must say, it was really nice. Personally, I didn't really know what had happened on the stage, except of glasses clinking and "Do You Know Your Partner That Well"- Quiz. Feel better to sit on the back and talk to some people in person, make some photos. Eventhough, I couldn't finish one portion of Bakso, which consisted of 4 pieces of meatball, after more than an hour.  In the evening I went to "Rekoleksi Calon Misdinar" to the jurit malam part and afterwards hung out with the old friends from the altar boys/girls to McDonald from 2 til 3 in the morning. Dennis drove us with his "truck". Bimo, Frans, and I had the honor to sit on the back. I love the fresh air!!! :) No matter I got sick afterwards, hehe.

On Sunday, there was an open event in the church, organised by the youth, called "All You Can Eat Ice Cream". And yeah, I ate 4 scoops. Don't worry, not at once. I met my physics teacher from the junior high, some friends from KMKI, who have been back here for good and a not funny clown, who was so heated in the costume he got (dat tut mir aber leid). We need to do dangdut, no any clear instruction. Meh. Don't mind, we won prize (all of us, haha).

I have already "visited" my grandma on the cemetery. Oh, damn, I miss her so much. Why can't she just come in my dream.... :( And visited Christo as well! Get well soon, my lil brother!

Oh, hey, we got a new president and vice president: Joko Widodo and Jusuf Kalla!! Congratulations!! FYI, their concurrent, Prabowo Subianto, couldn't accept his lose and walked out during the recapitulation of the election comittee. So, on the next days, we were not sure, whether it's safe enough to go out of the house. In the other hand, there are also some jokes related to his fanatic and pathetic fans, who promised to CUT HIS PENIS (Ahmad Dhani, the most idiot indonesian musician) or run around our national monument NACKED (2 girls) or go from Jogjakarta to Jakarta ON FOOT (another stupid politician), etc. Wait, NO! They weren't jokes, they are true! Those people said that on public media. Now, Joko Widodo's supporter marched on the street, to push these people fulfill their promises. Mampus lo! I hope that soon the situation could be calmed down.

Hey, yesterday my boyfriend called me!! :) Lalala... Miss him.. I don't like long distance :(

So enough for this week. See you next week in Bali!

Pfingsten!

Hmm, wieder allein zuhause zu sein und Facebook wieder gucken... Bleuh, nicht gut. Mein Freund und ich wollten ja eigentlich dieses Wochenende nach Brugge fahren. War wohl aufgrund Gesundheitsgründen nichts geworden. Ich bereue mich eigentlich auch nix, da ich sowieso ein schönes Wochenende mit ihm hatte. Aber die Fotos auf FB von Leuten, die dieses lange Wochenende nach Belgien fuhren irgendwie................. Meh, ich sollte sie nicht sehen. Die Fahrt ist ja nur verschoben :)

Wie gesagt, mein Wochenende war schön. Probe war total failed, aber hat richtig Spaß gemacht! Hab bei meinem Freund übernachtet. Eins will ich euch sagen: hab HEIMWEH :( Sometimes the warmth in the family of others might remind you of your own family and suddenly you miss them. Uuuh.. :( :(

Ohja. Lass ich euch nochmal meine Band vorstellen: LOUNGE PAD!! Eine Jülicher Band mit fünfköpfige Formation von Gitarre, Bass, Ukulele, Bass und Gesang mit augenzwinkernder Lounge-Musik, die wir lieber als "Experimentelle Popularmusik mit augmentierter Akkorddichte" nennen ;)

Lounge Pad

Wir haben eh kein normales Foto. (hehe, wollte eigentlich was anderes posten, aber lass es mal lieber für Privat ;)) Also Leute, wenn ihr gute Musik für Veranstaltungen braucht, sprecht uns gern an! :)

So I called it Christmas

I never expected that I would celebrate christmas and new year at home in 2013. Pap suddenly missed us and so yeah, we were home. I was in Bekasi for about 10 days. I arrived on Monday 23rd Dec and flew back on Jan 2nd. Almost everyday was visiting appointment. So, hmm, eat all the time. No wonder that I gained 4,5 kg in 10 days (OH NO!!). However, I also did  (again) movie marathon with Fliska (Sendy was out of town). We saw: Tenggelamnya Kapal Van Der Wijck and The Hobbit. I met Mbak Lala (we ate together at Tawan n went to photo box, haha). Ohja, I attended the new year's eve youth mass and at the end we took pict together (Jes, Boedi, me, Galih). I even sang in the choir in the mass on Dec 24th and in duty as ministrantin on Dec 29th. Overall, my christmas and new year was awesome :)

4 Months in NRW

just 4 months. I miss already my mom, my dad n my li'l genious brother.
I miss HOME HOME HOME :'( *pgn cpt2 ngicipin kmr baru*

tapi sayangnya gw pulang masih lama. masih staun lebih nih nunggunya.
gimana dong dong dong. gw sebal..

I don't wanna talk more about feeling. Kyna itu deh yg bikin gw kangen bgt sm rumah.
Kl di rumah, gw bisa cerita apa aja yg gw seneng, yg gw rasain, yg gw keselin/ sebelin sm nyokap. Tapi di sini udah 4 bulan, gw ngrasa ga ada yg bisa bener2 diajak ngobrol.

Skalinya berasa di rumah itu ya,di rumahnya Ka Astrid. Kenapa ya? gw juga ga tau. Kondisi tmpt tinggal ga mirip, makanan jg ga sama kok sm di rumah. Mungkin krn berasa diterima aja kali ya. Gw sekarang tau betapa pentingnya perasaan diterima itu.

Wanna get out from here :( Gw sadarlah mungkin gw bukan orang yg gampang gaul dan gw bisa terima itu kok. Cari sahabat itu susah. Tapi cari temen yg bener2 baik juga sama susahnya.
