Sony Bloggie pm5k - TEST

never say thanks.

This is a short story that I have been practicing for my ALW227 Scriptwriting Class. Although it has to be fiction...let's say I have a bit of fact meaning in this story. Here it goes.


She woke up in the morning, yawning. She glanced at her clock. 11.24. Damn!, she thought. She rushed towards the bathroom. God, she did not even take a shower (Hey, at least my face feel fresh and my hair smells nice...). Then, she put on her jeans, followed by the white-tee, grabbed a jacket, and ate the cereal straight from the box, without the milk.

After 2 minutes trying to quickly swallow the cornflakes, she swooped to her room, only to find that her boyfriend still asleep like a baby on her bed. She kissed him on the forehead, and muttered, 'I love you,', and she left.

Adele was not the kind of person who often get overslept during the weekdays. The only reason she ignored her alarm this morning was because she stayed up all night at her campus. Why? It was that because she loved her boyfriend. Dave had tons of assignments last night and had tried to finish them all. Adele knew that, of course, he did not want to be alone at the campus so she accompanied him. Until 2 o'clock in the morning. It was fun for Adele, though, so she did not even complain to her boyfriend.

At the campus, Adele met her friend, Emma. She was wearing a Rapunzel costume.

'Okay, I don't even wanna ask...'
'It's for my art class,'

The two of them chatted for about an hour, until Adele's phone rang. It was Dave.

'Hey, honey, where you at?'
'In my class, what's up?'
'Nothing, it's just I think I have to go the campus...', he said slowly.
'Um, okay, I'll just wait here, then,'
'Yeah 'cause I have an assignment that is due today...'
'WHAT?!', she shocked.
'Yeah, no, it's fine...it's easy, haha,'
'Well, okay, just call me when you're here, alright?'
'Sure thing. Bye, love,'
'Bye.'

When she put the phone in her bag, Emma asked,'What was it about?'
'Nahh, he just forgot that there's an assignment that is due today,'
'WHAT?!'
'Yeah, that was my reaction, too,', said Adele, smiling. And the two of them walked away.

******

'Adele!'

Dave has just arrived and he spotted Adele, reading in the library.

'Hey, I thought Emma's with you?', he said, looking for Emma.
'Nope, she went home earlier,', said Adele, while returning her book to it shelf. 'So, where do you wanna finish your assignment?'
'Uh, I need a computer...let's go to the computer lab,'

At the computer lab, it was packed with students who, Adele guessed, have also not done their assignment yet. Lucky for them, there were two computers left.

While Dave started working on his work, Adele, who did not have any assignments, started to Google-ed up piece of information. At first she Google-ed Jurassic Park, then she Google-ed Harry Potter, and finally when she got bored, she turned her head to Dave.

'Hey, do you need any help?'
'Nahh, I'm cool,', said Dave, still looking at his computer.

Adele saw what Dave had created. It was about a cartoonized video. Adele was already getting bored. So she made a decision to help him, whether he liked it or not. And besides, she studied this once. Of course, she could help him.

'You know, I think if you add a tree beside the character, it will look much better...'
'Huh?', responded Dave, with a judging look.
'Yeah, I mean..-' , at this point Adele started to lose her confidence. She forgot what she was about to say. What was more is that, after seeing the judging look of her beloved boyfriend, she started to feel annoyed. AND upset.
'I don't understand what you mean,', said Dave, still did not notice her girlfriend's feelings.
'Okay,'

Due to her annoyance, Adele cleaned up her table, packed her bag, and stood up.

'I'm going for a walk,', she said, avoiding Dave's eyes.
'What? Where?'
'I don't know, it's kinda stuffed here.'

So she left him. She walked away from Dave, who probably knew why she was acting like that all of a sudden. The looks of a regret.

meniti karir.

Cielah marshaaaaaaaa...sudah besar kamu ya nak! Dulu padahal hobinya cuma ngerjain orang, makan lolipop, sama minum kuah mie, sekarang udh bisa kerjaaaaa! Dan gue baru tau klo ternyata ngelamar kerja itu susahnya pol2an.

Karna gue lagi summer holiday selama 4 bulan (ya, silakan kaget) jadi bete dong klo gue ga ngapa2in. Apalagi skarang gue udh ampir 19 taun, udh punya cowo juga, masa gue ongkang2 kaki dirumah? Ditambah lagi pas di melb gue ngerasa bener2 butuh duit, dan bakal lebih oke klo duit yg gue pake itu berasal dari hasil kerja keras gue sendiri. Jadi gue berencana tema liburan gue kali ini adalah: meniti karir.

Cari kerja itu ga gampang lho. Okelah bikin cv cuma takes about 5 minutes, ditambah lagi lo bisa seenak jidat ngemeng2 sgala hal biar lo diterima. Tapi kadang ada juga orang yg males baca! Kampret. Dan ada lagi yg udh baca tp kita nya ga di inform apa2. Diterima engga, ditolak juga engga. Aneh dah.

Itu kyk pas gue ngelamar kerja di Blackcat. Itu kayak jazz club gtu. Gue kan seneng nyanyi, jd gue pengen part-time disana. Udh kirim cv, sampe skrng ga ada kabar. Ampun deh. Jadi gue cuma sering (oke, ga sering juga sih. baru sekali. tp gue planning buat sering kesana) nyanyi disana tiap Senen doang, soalnya ada Open Mic.

Trus setelah ditolak (aka. ga dikabarin) dari Blackcat, gue beralih ke jurusan gue: acting. Karna gue suka anak kecil, gue jadi pengen jadi guru acting buat anak2 kecil gtu kan. Plus, gue dulu pernah maen di Sanggar Sangrila, jd gue bertekad buat ngelamar disana. DAN GUE DITERIMA! Rada aneh. Ga pake cv, ga di interview, cuma bilang klo dulu gue lulusan sana. Eh langsung diterima. Yaudalah daripada ga ngapain2 mending gue lanjutin aja. Cuma gue takutnya ga ada sertifikat ni, tp bodo, nanti akan gue paksa.

Menjelang Januari, kan gue pasti ada liburan dong, jadi gue libur ngajar juga. Tapi pas balik2 mau masuk di sanggar itu lagi, tempat gue udh keisi orang lain!! Yahh jadi gue jobless lagi deh, tp udh gue minta si sertifikatnya (tp blom ada balesan, jd deg2an ni gue).

Alhasil, gue mentok2nya kerja di kantor nyokap HAHAHAHA. Dan sekarang ini gue lg ngetik dari meja bos *ciehehehe* soalnya nyokap gue lg di Singapore. Yasud gue balik kerja deh. Paling engga gue udh punya mini karir :p

a guy called DDPU.

Okay first of all, i wanna thank God for giving me a guy that is as weird as i am, as talkative as i am, and as freaky as i am. And to thank my Dad for not letting me to go to Singapore, instead i went to MIBT where i met this guy :))

Dimas Dwika Putra, yg lahir tgl 16 Juni 1990, adalah anak ke-2 dari pasangan Tante Tetie dan Om Budi yang skarang ini berkediaman di BSD (buat yg belom tau, itu Bumi Serpong Daya. Eh Damai deng). Oiya ampe lupa, dy sedang menjalin hubungan cinta *cielah* dengan Marsha Julyan. Itu gue nyet. Dan selama ini gue bahagia bgt sama dy, klo gue bete pun dy bisa cheer me up. He is everything that i could ever dreamed of. He is someone who truly understands me, no matter seberapa egois dan cerobohnya gue. Dan gue bener2 seneng sama ni bocah satu.

Dan entah knp semalem otak gue mendadak bego, gue bener2 ngebetein bgt. GUE nya yg ngebetein. Oke awalnya memang salah dy gara2 ketiduran blah blah blah (ya pokoknya ada de alesan kita brantem)...tapi stelah dipikir2, ga seharusnya juga gue marah. Udah gtu, bagi org yg udh kenal sama gue *dan pernah gue marahin* pasti tau klo gue udh kesel sel sel itu gue bisa ampe nyindir. But klo cuma ini masalahnya, menurut gue ya gue salah juga pake marah sgala.

Mungkin berhubung gue lg dapet juga kali ya. Oke gue tau itu ga bisa dijadiin alesan buat ini, tapi ga biasanya gue ampe se-nyebelin ini. Suwer dah. I know i can be a bitch sometimes, tapi a GOOD one!! Cuma semalem ini gue bner2 bikin dy sedih. Ih klo gue punya temen kayak gue-yg-semalem juga udh gue musuhin 3 taon.

Walopun gue udh minta maaf ke dy, dan dy nya juga udh bilang "it's okay", tp besoknya bener2 keliatan klo something's different. Contoh:

1. Dy ga bales wall2 gue di fb nya dy. Pdahal dy udh liat profile gue, tp no comment at all.

2. Tadi sore dy kerumah gue, dan dy ga seaneh yg biasanya *justru klo dy normal, malah ga biasa buat gue*

3. Dy jarang bilang I love you duluan ke gue, pdahal biasanya dy duluan. Oke yg ini rada ga penting sih...

4. Dan dy jarang sms gue. But maybe dy sibuk, secara dy sibuk kerja dan ga enak jugalah masa dy smsan mulu di kantornya.

Ngomong2 ttg kerja, si DDPU ini kayaknya workaholic gtu de. Ya alesannya si katanya memang buat gue juga, which i think it's the sweetest thing any guy could ever said to me. Jarang2 lho skrng kita punya cowo yg bisa mikirin sampe sejauh ini. Dan ini emang bener, klo dy mau serius sama gue dy harus mikirin ke depannya gmn. TAPIIIIIIIIIIIII...(ini rada egois) gue juga lama2 ga demen klo dy ngomongin kerja, kerja, kerja, kerja, kerjaaaaa mulu. Helloooo, kita lagi summer holiday. HOLIDAY. H-O-L-I-D-A-Y. I dont blame him though, cause cara pemikirin dia emang 100% right. Which is why i love that boy :)

Oke balik ke permasalahan. Karna gue merasakan ada hawa2 yg beda dari dy, gue jadi parnoan. Gue cuma takut 1: dy bosen sama gue. Dan gue bener2 ngerasa bersalah bgt, karna klo dy bosen sama gue itupun gara2 guenya yg emang bukan a typical good girlfriend. Ya Allah kita baru 4 bulan, sabtu ini pun baru 5 bulan, masa gara2 gue nya yg annoying dan suka marah tiba2 kita udahan??! Oke oke gue lebih milih kita udahan drpd masih jadian tp dy nya beda ke gue. Ga lucu banget sumpah.

Ampun deh. Marsha ngebosenin. Rasanya klo laen kali dy ada salah yg cuma secuprit gue harus diemin aja kali ya, jangan marah2. Daripada gue jadi ngebosenin. Plus galak. Sha, sha...sabar sha...you love him, and he loves you back. Chill :p

mba gue hobi mimpiin dodol.

Hadoooohh siang2 begini paling ga enak klo ga ada kerjaan. Apalagi gue, dirumah cuma berdua sama mba. Nyokap ke singapore, bokap ke kantor, pacar juga kerja. Harusnya gue juga kerja, tp mumpung perut lg ga bener gara2 lg dpt jadi gue bolos sehari.

Jam 12 siang noh, harusnya lg panas2nya kan tuh ye. Cuma karna tadi abis ujan, jadi jam sgtu masih mendung banyak angin gtu. Enak sih anginnya, jadi gue buka pintu balkon. Trus tiba2 ada suara tukang makanan lewat kan, nah gue pikir bakwan malang. Taunya pas diliat bukan. Karna td di otak gue udh tersimpan kata "bakwan malang", gue jadi ngidam tu makanan dah. Mana jam 12 kan lagi laper2nya. Mendung2 makan bakwan malang anget2, pedes2 pula. BEDEEEUUHHH !!! Mantap tu.

Gue nunggu tukang bakwan malang itu sambil fesbukan, sama browsing2 di internet. Baru gue sadar, kok rumah sepi banget ya? Mba gue lagi ngapain yaaa...

Mba gue itu, namanya mba Amy (iya pake Y bukan I, keren kan), paling tau tukang2 apa aja yg bakal lewat jam segini. Jadi gue berniat nyari dy dan nanya ttg keberadaan si tukang bakwan malang *cielah*

Pas gue ke kamarnya, ternyata dy lg tidur. Trus gue bangunin kan. Oke gue akuin klo gue banguninnya ga selembut dan se-penuhkasihsayang sperti klo pacarnya yg ngelus2 dy. Ya gue bilang aja, "Eh, mba...", dan gue bahkan ga teriak, cuma nyebut gtu doang. Dy tiba2 bangun mendadak kyk kaget gtu (mba gue emang rada kagetan), rada terlalu di dramatisir klo menurut gue. Dan pas ngeliat gue, langsung aja dy nyerocos.

"Ih marshaaaaa gimana sih??!! Mba itu lagi mimpi enak banget niii!!"

Gue tanya dong mimpi apaan.

"Mba tadi lagi mimpi makan dodol enak banget!!"

Err...oke?

"Iyaaaa, tadi awalnya mba makan dodol warnanya ijo! Aduh itu enak banget, kenyel2 gtu. Trus mba baru aja mau nyobain yg warna coklat, eeehhh marsha dateng kan AAARRGGHH !!"

Sumpah dy kayak stress banget. Bahkan pas gue masih terbingung2 mencerna apa yg barusan dy omongin, dy masih aja terus ngoceh ttg kekenyalan si dodol ijo.

Pas dy udh mulai rada tenang, baru deh gue tanya ttg si tukang bakwan malang (yg daritadi merupakan tujuan utama gue bangunin dy). Eeehh dy bisa2nya langsung bilang, "Yaudah de, bakwan aja, dodolnya kapan2..."

.....WTF????

new life.

Ya ampun udh lama juga ya gue ga nulis blog. Klo diliat di Blog Archive, gue udh longkap 1 taun ga nulis blog! Secara gue lupa passwordnya. But thanks to hotmail and a bunch of IT people, gue bisa ganti password deh !! Dan sudah gue simpan di tempat yg aman, hehe...

First of all, HAPPY NEW YEAAARRR 2010 !!! Di taun 2010 ini, resolusi gue adalah menyelesaikan bachelor gue tanpa ada yg fail (lagi), trus insya Allah dapet part-time job di melb hehe. Kalo resolusi gue di taun 2009 kan punya baju barong dalam berbagai warna, ya jadi keliatan lah klo di taun 2010 ini gue bertambah dewasa dalam memilih tujuan masa depan...

Ngomong2 baju barong, gue udh menuntaskan resolusi taun 2009 tersebut loh! Thanks to a guy named Dimas Dwika Putra, yg baru aja pulang dr liburannya ke Bali. Baik sekali ya dy inget gue dengan membelikan oleh2 7 baju barong yg warna warni. Ya iyalaaaaahh, cowo gueee (newsflash!) :p

Truth be told, apparently my LDR with Stef ga working too good buat kita berdua, jadi stelah hampir 2 taun jadian kita putus jg. But yehh we still friends. With Dimas (16Aug09), on the other hand, karna kita sama2 tinggal di melbourne jadi lebih sering ketemu. Dan juga lebih sering ngobrol, secara kita tinggal serumah.

EITS! Jangan pada mikir yg aneh2 ya lo semua. Gue sama dy tinggal ber-6 di share house, ga berdua doang. Lagipula ga macem2 juga, cuma rumah jd rame klo ada dy haha.

Ya itu doang sih update dari gue semenjak gue melupakan password blog gue sendiri *dodol lo sha*

Stressful Ramadhan.

Di bulan puasa ini, gue harus siap2 nurunin berat badan. Secara sekarang berat gue 48 kg, gue berharap pas lebaran jadi 46 kg. Cuma ya, setelah 3 hari puasa ini gue malah merasa perut gue rada gendutan dan berat naek jadi 48,5 kg. Ntah kenapa ya.....kata nyokap gara2 klo buka kebanyakan makan. Jadi pas bunyi bedug langsung menyerbu meja makan. Itu goblok bgt sumpah.

Selaen masalah berat badan, ditambah lagi bau mulut. Yang namanya puasa kan ga bole minum dong. Trus kmaren kan baru nge band sama yang Ano, Prayoo, Apay, Gio, yang puasa tu gue, Prayoo, ama Apay. Ano sih ikut2an doang tp jam 4 udh ribut laper. Gue, Gio, sama Apay kan nyanyi2 gtu di mikenya. BUSET DAH. Yang namanya mulut udh ga dicuci dari pagi jam 7 sehabis gosok gigi, sampe akhirnya nge band jam 5an......itu mike baunya udh super heboh. Rada jijik sih ngomongin beginian di blog, tp ya bosen lg kelas Journalism disuruh si Mick nyari artikel2 geje gtu.

Hmm, berat badan udah. Bau mulut juga udah. Oiya : EXAM IS COMING, PEOPLE !!! Gile. Exam nya nanti tu tanggal 22 Sept sampe 26 Sept, bete bgt. Itu masih puasa tu, yaelah.....laper2 disuruh mikir. Udh gtu, Ano balik ke fuckin Seattle tgl 23 jd ya sedih bgt sih gue.

Ditambah lagi, untuk saat2 ini gue udh dihantui oleh beberapa assignment yg super nyebelin. Journalism yg kmaren aja gue ngasal. 100%. Gue bilang aja interview nelayan namanya Nanang Mardianto. Gue yakin klo ampe Nanang bener2 ada, dy malu namanya jadi Mardianto gtu.

Yah pokoknya yang penting abis exam lgsg lebaran, minal aidin walfaidzin ya kawan2....Huhuhu, tp sumpah gue ga boong bete bgt Ano balik tgl 23, maunya sih ampe December tp itu rada gila.

Dilema USB Flashdisk.

Hati gue hancur berkeping2. Kpala gue pusing ga karuan. Mata gue sembab ga niat buat melek. Kaki gue rapuh ga kuat berdiri. Tangan gue kayak karet. Dada gue sesek ga bisa napas. Rasanya gue pengen jedotin kpala gue ke tembok beratus2 kali. Kenapa ya gue bisa goblok banget?! Udah 2 kali, masih aja teledor !! BODOH BGT GUE.

Rabu pagi, jam 6an gtu, gue kalang kabut nyari USB gue. Di tas ga ada, di meja ga ada, dimana2 ga ada. Gue langsung flashback kejadian kmaren : kan ke Grand Indo jalan2 sama Liza + Aii trus nonton Wall-E sama Ano. Selama disana (gara2 gue pake tas merah yg resletingnya susah bgt buat dibuka-tutup) gue ga pernah sibuk2 buka2 tas deh kecuali klo mau ambil dompet or hape. Dan lagipula klo jatoh pun, pasti kedengeran dan keliatan (secara USB gue warnanya pink norak gtu).

Jadinya gue kepikiran klo tu USB ketinggalan di MIBT computer lab. Udh gue nanya ama Mas Ferry, dy bilang ga ada. Temen2 gue yg Senennya bareng ma gue pun bilang ga liat. Gue udh mo nangis. Itu USB udh pernah ilang, dan ini yg kedua kalinya. Pdahal udh gue kasih nama MARSHA gede2. Ternyata di dunia ini udh ga ada yg namanya "orang baik".

Pas gue nanya ama cowo2 yang sekelas ma gue pas Senen (gue ga tau namanya siapa aja), mereka bilang, 'Jangan2 diambil si Viktor tu!'........Hmmm...sungguh mencurigakan. Siapa sebenarnya lelaki muda bernama Viktor ini? Perlu diselidiki. Jadi ini conversationnya :

Marsha (M) : 'Viktor? Siapa tu?'

Guys (G)    : 'Sekelas ma kita, pake kacamata. Dy tu suka mondar mandir. Dy emang udh dicurigain sering nyolong2 USB orang yg ketinggalan di computer lab buat dicontekin assignmentnya!'

M  : 'HAH? Mati gue! Seriusan lo?'

G : 'Serius! Ati2 deh lo mendingan, tar takutnya dy nyontek assignment lo trus tar dikira elo yang plagiarism lho...'

Sumpah, klo bneran dy si yg ngambil USB gue, gue tabok serius. Nyusahin. Si Cornell si pernah ngingetin klo jgn tinggalin USB di computer lab soalnya ada anak yg suka ngambil2. Trus si Liza cerita klo dulu si Adrian jg pernah dituduh plagiat essaynya dy sendiri gara2 si Viktor2 itu.

Yaudalah...Karna assignment gue due nya tu Jumat, jd gue buru2 bikin. Alhasil selese juga, tapi bagusan yang di USB gue. Sumpah tu anak nyusahin bgt. Sampe ketauan si, aaaaaahhh.....gue pelorotin celananya.

Brandon Baker as "Johnny Kapahala"

Hari Rabu tu hari yang paling ngebosenin dalem seminggu, selaen Senen. Malem2 bingung ga tau mo ngapain. Trus iseng2 ni buka Disney Channel, eeeehh ada filem Johnny Kapahala : Back On Board.

Gue emang sering ngeliat iklannya di DC, tapi ga pernah nonton. Jd ya daripada ga ada kerjaan, gue tontonin de. Bagus jg tu filem, seru. Kayak surfing2 sama maen skateboard2an gtu de. 

Yang gue tau sih pemaennya, yang jadi si Johnny, mayan ganteng. Namanya siapa gtu ya...umm...oiya...Brandon Baker.

He's not the type of guy that's perfect and handsome. He's not blonde. He doesn't have blue eyes. But he is cute. He's a surfing-type of guy. I like that.

Tapi ya kayaknya dy cuma ganteng di filem itu doang de, abisnya gue ga bs nemuin foto2 dy di Google di kategori filem laen. Udalah, Ano's the best. Haha :))

pengen ke taman safariiii !!!

Ntah knp ya tiba2 gue jd kepengen ke Taman Safari. Itu kyknya semenjak gue ke rumah Syka de, kan lewatin Taman Safari. Eh salah ding, itu Ragunan. Ah klo Ragunan mah camen, udh gtu cuacanya kan panas bgt. Seengganya klo Taman Safari kan di Puncak, jd lebih sejuk dikit. Apalagi gue belom pernah ikut Night Safari, kan seru tu malem2 dikejar sama singa. Dan sekarang ada paketnya gtu, 350rb sekaligus nginep sama makan. Pengen bgt gue.

Tapi gue pengen pergi kesananya sama Ano. Nah, cuma...klo kesana cuma bedua doang kan ga seru. Gue berniat bawa sodara2 gue tu, apalagi si Kevin & Kenny sama Rissa kan pasti seneng gtu2an. Gue sih pengennya nginep, td siang aja gue ampe ngecek harga bungalow nya. Tp kasian Ano mau tidur dimana, haha.

Jadinya klo siang2 juga gpp de, yg penting jadi pegi. Tadi gue research ya, ada macan, singa, uler, pinguin, monyet, sama binatang2 laen yg lucu2. Duh pengen 

banget.

Dan gara2 itu, gue jadi buka YouTube buat ngeliatin baby tiger, lion cub, ampe baby snakes pun gue tontonin. Gue jd suka yang baby2an....hahaha.
