recently my favorite: a prove that I'm not done being 17

Dear, here are the sites that recently I love to visit. I'm currently into bedroom decorating now, so I always find many kinds of references to gain inspirations =)

designdazzle.blogspot.com. I always found many cute ideas of room decorating.  have a visit!

fashiolista.com, the fashion stuffs are so tempting and gorgeous, I wanna have all of them --"

pbteen.com. PB stands for pottery barn. again, home decorating ideas. they look so chic.

teenagebedroom.tumblr.com. Many teenagers from different countries post the photos of their bedrooms on this site and somehow I am also inspired to see them...

seeing the sites I visit, it shows that I'm not done being 17. Wanna deny that I'm 21 going on 22. I have the same taste with those teens, haha..

and this one: emmm... it is not about decorating ideas, but a jokes site called..... 

9gag.com

Hahahahaa.... though I sometimes don't understand what is meant by those jokes, but 9gag is the first site I click everytime I access the Internet. sometimes the jokes are a little bit 'dirty', but I still love it, anyway :D

These spectacular days....

started on January 21st when I had my vacation with the legatoers on jatim park. this was the first time for me visiting this place...

here are some of the snapshots taken at jatim park:

warning: after playing on a ride that makes your body being shaken, e.g star chase, tornado, columbus, etc. PLEASE don't play on other ride unless your body is strong enough. I played on star chase, and continued to play on columbus, it made me vomit. it happened 3 times, and I got a terrible dizziness. For approximately an hour I couldn't continue having fun activities.

Overall, that was so much of fun. we went back home on dawn. after we arrived back on our campus, we gathered, made a circle, unite our hands in the middle and yelled LEGATO, FIGHT!!

and that was (perhaps) the last time for me to yell those words :(

the next day (I mean, today) is the day that I've been waiting for . Auntie's departure to Jakarta. She left at 7.00 with my mom and my other aunt. Mom will be in jakarta for 2 days.

Now, i wanna yell:

I HAVE MY BEDROOM NOW!!! yaaa haaa!!!

*dance*

*dance*

here are some rearrangement and make-overs of my bedroom.

As days are being counted

3 Days to go :)

my aunt starts packing her things, her clothes are already taken away from the cupboard and are now packed in boxes. her medicines are already cleaned up from the table.... 3 days to go and i'll (again) be the master of my holy pink sanctuary....

can't wait that day to come

can't wait to clean up my bedroom

can't wait to decorate my bedroom

can't wait to buy new accessories...

look at the table. it used to be full with medicines, but not now. they are already cleaned up.

my aunt's thingies. they're being packed right now, and will be sent to jakarta through expedition

another corner of my bedroom. these tables are used to be put many kinds of bandages. but now, they're empty already.

I have to be patient. to wait for sunday to come, to wait for my salary to be received, and decorate my room to make it cozier...

Damn! time is crawling..

Lord, thanks for blessing me, and granting what I wished for. Thanks for giving my privacy back. Thanks for giving me this bless along with a happy moment I will have with legato: A vacation to jatim park! it's going to be the first time for me visiting that amusement park. THE FIRST TIME? am I kidding? no!

I come from a family which hardly ever goes out to have vacation. Dad dislikes refreshing or visiting amusement parks or tourism sites. while mom, though she likes and badly needs a vacation, she can't drive by herself to go for a vacation, and her hectic schedule makes her unable to steal some time to go out. while me, I badly need a vacation. I always feel jealous and envious seeing my friends traveled to many beautiful places, and I am sitting alone at home, watching the photos of my friends having vacation posted in FB, no one asked me to go out with them. believe me, I feel badly, terribly, deadly, JEALOUS.
OK, you can say "IT'S WEIRD TO HAVE NEVER BEEN TO JATIM PARK!!" But it's INDEED a fact that my father dislikes vacation. Mom admits that. not only mom, but also everyone in his office admits dad's disliking in vacationing. they said that that's the way my dad is. Poor me :(

And this is going to be a precious time for me. To have fun in jatim park with legato. Dear legato, somehow I feel jealous to see your photos having vacation in beautiful places. this time, I wanna join you, so that I can show to my great-grandchildren that their grandma has experienced a vacation - which is very rare in my family. 

Dad, mom, vacation is expensive in this family. So, may I trust my friends instead of both of you for having a qualified vacation? thank you.

the number "22"

what's on the number 22?
My age this year? yeah, I will be 22 next may. but, 22 for me is more than just an age.
it's because... there will be something happened on January 22nd...

insya Allah, on that day, I will....

GET MY BEDROOM BACK!!!

alhamdulillah, a certainty has come, that my Aunt has finally recovered (but not totally, for sure...) 
She will go back home to Jakarta on January 22nd, exactly 1 week after I start the brand new semester. YAYAAAAAAAAY!

January 22nd, please come to me NOW NOW NOOOOOOOOWWW!!!

OK, so, several weeks ago, Dad hired a carpenter and he made some new cupboards and bookshelves. and I am given a new big bookshelf. waw! it smells bad, and I haven't thought about what am I going to do with this new bookshelf. Recently I put my dolls in the top part of that shelf, and my parachute praying dress that I usually bring everyday at campus. well, I'm still thinking about what are going to be put on that new bookshelf.

all after all, the day when I will get my privacy back is now can be counted. ONE WEEK TO GO =)

lalalaalalaaaa =D

thank God I have my most precious privacy back.
after I receive my salary of tutoring my student, I will spend it to buy a pink plastic curtain =)

so glad to have my own castle. LET'S COUNT THE DAYS DOWN!

the same daydream

dear, long  time not talking about my days.
first, I wanna share something, that the last 2 days were such an unforgettable moment for me. I attended the student conference for the committee of Ormawa Sastra. I finally can know the rules of conducting a court. I know how it feels to learn the AD/ART of our organization. Also, we, the senators finally arranged the committee of the student legislative board. it is very nice to befriend with you guys, the senators....

FERY, WILDAN, NURIL, ALFU, BITA, YOGI, GHANY, FENTI, IRMA, NIZAR, ANDRI, ZAIN

Hopefully we can make a great improvement for our faculty, our Ormawa, our Legislative Board. Viva La Vida  Legislativa!

and this is the second. in this 25th of december, my aunt finally finishes her foot treatment. all the rotten wounds on her foot finally dried. soon she will go back to jakarta. Alhamdulillah...
everything I think is all about a plan to redecorate my bedroom. can't wait to be brought back to the place I am supposed to belong to. well, next semester I start to think about my thesis, I need a huge amount of concentration, and it only can be gained in my bedroom. Please Allah grant my wishes... amin ya robbal alamin =)

The redecorating plan is currently making me thinking about the same daydream, everytime I drown myself in my mom's bed before sleeping: To stop the time for several hours. those several hours will be used to go to the mall, and take eeeeeeeeeeeeverything I want especially those pink things from teenage accessories station to decorate my room. to take a pink recorder flute in musical instruments store. to take pink spiral note book. to take many kinds of L-sized dresses. to take cute drinking bottles. pink computer mouse. happy house doormat. hello kitty bedroom slippers.transparent umbrellas. colorful teenager backpacks. watches. wallets. spectacles. EEEEEEEEEVERYTHING I WANT. but no one recognize the things I take. ahahaaa, criminal mind. but this is only a daydream. it is only an imagination and I believe it can't made into a reality, I don't wanna do it for real. I know it's a crime, dude.

well, somehow, several days ago I have relieved myself from the stressful final week with buying a new pink gift wrapping paper (hah! I always buy gift wrapping papers and I don't use them at all!), some cute pink stationaries, and a pink hand fan. bismillah, hopefully it can boost up my spirit to start a new semester next year.

anyway, merry christmas for you all who celebrate :) GBU and happy enjoying a quality time with your whole family with fruitcakes and cookies :)

Dancing in the rain on this december

In this rainy december, while waiting for a certainty of my aunt to leave my home, I have made some preparation to welcome myself back in my bedroom.
My parents bought 2 packs of puzzle mats, they are pink and blue, oh how gorgeous --"
they use 6 pieces of it to be put under the praying mat, and the rest are to be put inside my room.
but, after my aunt leaves my home, for sure.
I also have bought several new pink giftpapers to be attached on my wall.
WHOAAA.... CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE MY ROOM BACK

The point is, when my aunt leaves, I will clean my bedroom totally. throw away the waterproof mat laid in my bed during the time my aunt stays in my room. THIS IS ALREADY DECEMBER! AUNT WILL LEAVE SOON! FREAK YEAAAAAAAH!!

this december, I will have my freakin' final week, the CCU gathering that perhaps costs much, the Legato committee dismission (yeah we finally finish our year officially, for the next head of legato has been elected. Meet BAYU ILHAM PRIBADI, the next head of legato. and all hail to the next head of Student Executive board, GEBBY MAULANSYAH). I will also have some fun activities with the Legatoers. Also, I have made up my mind and finally decided to continue my career in student organizations of Faculty of letters, in the Student LEGISLATIVE board a.k.a DMF (not executive! hahah). I'm a senator-to-be (whuuuuiiiikkk..... what a hyperbolic language... senator? err, yeah, that's the way we are called)

well, it's kinda weird for me after being accustomed for 2 and a half years having a headquarter as a place to go home to, a place to take a nap and is dominating my daily life.... that's one of maaany reasons for me to continue my career in ormawa. well, after thinking very long, the activities that BEM have is somehow similar with legato's activities. But the pressure is higher. yeah, I have experienced it. twice working for CSR Magazine and also karnaval sastra. well, kinda too complicated for me.

hell yeah! also, I'm planning to take a DOUBLE DEGREE program next semester!
emmm, the first time I heard this phrase, I feel that - yeah, I have to add one more year ahead to finish my study. more subjects to take. more responsibility. One more title.

Pritha Anggiarima, S.S, S.Pd! 


I'm taking English Linguistics and Education! I have a legalization to teach!! mukya gyaboooo~
the most important thing is that I want to be placed in SMANAWA on my teaching internship.
kinda wanna kiss the pain away as what Hollywood nobody said,,, errrr yeah!

hey, is it december 8th? so january ninth is only one month left?
Ah, hell! I haven't prepared anything! January 9th is still being the day I've been waiting for since the last 5 years. What am I going to give? a scrapbook again? but, oh! I don't have a place to work on it!
A stop motion video? well, my laptop is being uncooperative.
A dress? I don't know her size. hei, is she as plump as me? No. also, she's way shorter than I am, for sure.
And I don't know for sure what her style exactly is.

Emmm, I forgot one thing. that Smanawa is going to - again - hold a BUNKASAI! yeah, this is the 4th bunkasai held.

Yeah, finally got a chance to explore my style on the way of dressing up! can't waitttt!!!

Being thankful, a certainty, and my plans.

"Why do we never know what we've got till it's gone, How could I carry on, the day you went away?" (M2M: The day you went away)

Yes, I admit it.

What M2M said was right. I never realize how worthwhile they were, until I lose them :( Dear, may I once again post about my disappointment about my bedroom? yes, this problem is really dominating this semester. It started on August 14th when Auntie W occupied my bedroom and took over my privacy. Dear, during I own that bedroom, I used to leave it in a mess. My books are spread everywhere in the floor along with my praying dress. but, no matter how messy it is, this is my private territory where I love to do anything I can't do under other people's watching. I love to write about my secrets in my bed, staring on his photo for so long, making lypsinc video, scrapbooking.... all done in my bedroom. I used to neglect the tidiness, the most important thing is I am having fun on my bedroom, I don't care whether it is messy or not. But now, it's all gone. Now my bedroom is not different with a hospital room. Auntie W laid on my bed, hissing hurtfully due to her left foot which is 'rotten' (how do I call it?) by her Diabetes. Medicines, ointments, sanitary gloves, alcohol bottles, bandage rolls, are all around the corner. Everytime I enter that room, I always feel that my room is now farther than its owner. It seems to keep a distance and doesn't want to be involved with me again :( Dear bedroom, I'm still your owner. My Aunt does a coup d'etat. and it is almost 2 months. You can imagine, you can feel, how depressed I am! dear bedroom, now I realized how worthwhile you are, because you are my one and only palace to do my things and you are my most essential privacy ever. I admit that I was wrong on underestimating you. now I have to take nap on the sofa, and sleep with my mom - well, since I was very young I've liked to sleep alone. It causes me to wake up in the morning with a depressed feeling, and it has happened for almost 2 months. Oh my God --" I have bought some gift papers to be used as a decoration, and now I'm planning to buy a rotating night lamp and a plastic pink curtain. It shows my enthusiasm on waiting that very beautiful day. Yesterday I listened to my mom talking with her sister in pasuruan, about this sick Auntie W. she said that Auntie W plans to fly back to Jakarta on December.


DECEMBER?



IS IT ALREADY A CERTAINTY?





CRAP.



I have been becoming a victim of Auntie W's coup d'etat since this 5th semester hasn't started yet and it will be ended on my final week. So, let's call this 5th semester as a whole semester without sleeping in my bedroom at all. how crap it is, huh? and it will be remembered for my whole life. So that, from now on, I learned a thing. No matter how messy my bedroom is, I have to be thankful for owning a bedroom. Now I know how it feels for not having a bedroom at all. Even I put my books on the living room table, I always study for my courses there, and have no privacy to write about secret things or any stuffs about 'him'. Everything I can do is only praying for my aunt. again. praying. that's all. And keep on being patient on facing my aunt's behavior. Dear bedroom, I love you anyway. Sorry to post about you again, but this problem is dominating me.


BTW, I am having a hectic week. Bunch of assignments in a row. Research Methods in Linguistics, Cross-Cultural Understanding, Drama I, DISCOurse analysis, journalism, sociolinguistics, and studying for statiSH*T!!! ahahaaii.

HOPELESS

Hi dear, I hope that you’re not bored reading my posts which are mostly complain about my house. Well, FYI, I’m a kind of a girl who feels better at campus rather than at home. Somehow, there are times that my campus is incomparable with my home. As what I said before, there are many fun things I had at campus but I can’t find it at home.

Dear, it is officially one month for me being expelled from my bedroom.
I know that I usually left my bedroom in a mess, but there I can get my precious privacy, I can type anything on my laptop without being watched by anyone else.
I can write anything in my notebook without worrying of my notes will be read.
I can enjoy the decoration of my bedroom. Its pink walls, the photo board, and the gift papers I attach on my wall, the rejection letter I got from AMINEF which is somehow motivating though it is frustrating at first.
I have a wishing box in my room. I put all my wishes there and I believe that someday those dreams will come true.

Lord, I don’t know for how long my Auntie will occupy my bedroom. I keep on praying for her, to get better soon….
If she gets better then she can fly back to Jakarta, and have her normal life as a happy grandma.
Lord, I hate seeing my parents spending so much money to take care of her. I don’t know how much they have spent for my aunt, and I don’t want to find out.
All I can do is just praying for her to be better and to be recovered very soon.

(Everyone who reads this, please pray for my aunt! I’m so desperate)

Maybe some of you judge that I’m not ikhlas – or something, but – believe me that it DOES happen to all girls who love their bedroom very much. Moreover if the bedroom has been arranged and decorated as well to make the owner convenient.

Hi dear, I event have bought some new giftpapers to be attached in my wall. It shows how enthusiastic I am to welcome the day when I am sent back to my room. Can’t wait to wash the bed sheets and arrange the tables again, can’t wait to arrange the necklaces I hang on the window bars, can’t wait to clean out my cupboard, can’t wait to rearrange my books, can’t wait to arrange my accessories in a neater place, can’t wait to put my make up kits in my dresser (well, since I’m expelled from my bedroom, I always do the make-up in the mirror of dining room’s sink!).
Can’t wait to write freely on my notebook, to stare at the cute photos, to write on the wishing box…..

I WANNA HAVE MY PRIVACY BACK.
Please recover my aunt and grant her a better life.

I believe that that day will come…
Cause I know that everyone isn’t dare to see me sleeping on the couch every night.

This is how it feels, when your most private zone is taken over

Hi dear, long time no post :))

I’ve started my classes and am about to have holidays again. Lebaran holiday! So, I only have classes for approximately 2 weeks and then I will be thrown back to my home then cursed by hell houseworks. (Believe me!)

Dear, since August 13^th, 2011 I spent my night sleeping either in the living room’s couch or in an unemployed boarding house room. Yes, dear. My pinky bedroom is occupied by my sick aunt. My aunt from Jakarta, she’s my mom’s eldest sister. Sick? Yeah. She is suffering from diabetes and a big scar in her left foot makes her foot to be ‘rotten’ (how do I call it?), and it is always covered with bandages.

Dear, my aunt was hospitalized even since months ago and it takes a big amount of money, and she – who is no longer working because of her sickness – can’t deal with the hospital bills. So that my parents and my aunt who is my mom’s youngest sister have to pay her hospital bills. I don’t know the exact amount, but for sure it must be millions. So, from now on, I have to stop dreaming about having my lunch in the newly-opened McD’s branch. I have to be stingy to myself. Ergh! Well, my parents decided to take care of my aunt in my house since we have a bedroom located next to a bathroom – which is MY bedroom. ARGH! I am expelled from my most private zone! It’s kinda hard for me to access my belongings very often since my aunt mostly sleeps and she is easily wakened up.

Please, dear, everyone who reads this post, please pray for my aunt, hope that she will get better soon, so that she can be active again in her daily activities back in Jakarta….and, emmm, of course.. I wanna have my bedroom back. (ERGH!!)

Please Lord, give my parents a whole lot of your rizkis and blessing, regarding their sacrifice on taking care of my aunt.

(hey, this is Ramadhan. The best time for prayers to be granted)

Argh! Talking about being expelled from my room makes me wanna get mad, while this is ramadhan…

Ok, now is 08:00 am and one of my lecturer asked me to go to her office to take some documents in her locker. Yeah, dear! I’m the captain of CCU class! *tap dancing* Why do I always appointed as the captain of the class if the lecturer is that-very-woman?

Yeah, gotta go to lecturer’s office after this…

Hmpft, I hate having off-hours between each subject. Today I have a class on the 1^st and 2^nd period, then another class on 9^th and 10^th period. Huahahahahahahaaaa. What the hell am I going to do on the 3^rd up to 8^th period? I don’t wanna go home! I hate being at home and being cursed by hell houseworks. Everytime I enter my house, I always breath on an atmosphere of hatred and the air seems to be black. What the hell! That’s why, spending my time in my campus is kinda enjoyment for me, to meet my crazy friends, drowning myself in Wi-Fi zone, and having a class with interesting lecturers like…. Pak Arif Subiyanto :))

Ahahai, please, if I can redesign the faculty’s schedule, I don’t wanna have a day off… but for sure I will be the public enemy and will be boycotted. They will raise their MIDDLE fingers upon my face, for sure, heheh

I hate spending my time at home!

Oh yeah, I just received my THR and will dedicate that money to buy…. TEXT BOOKS. Taking 11 subjects this semester requires more books to buy, ain’t it?

Hmm, seems that I have to forget my plan to buy underscarves, socks, or a bagful of Cilok SMA 8. (Lord, there are many cilok sellers, but why do SMA 8’s cilok and Cilok setan are the most-wanted ones?)

ergh, no no no, this is ramadhan, stop talking about foods, OK?

CILOOOOOOOOOOOKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Almost Robbed

Hi dear, I posted about my brother in my previous post and - unpredictably - the following day, my brother was hospitalized. It took 4 days for him to stay there and now he's back home. He got Dengue fever and typhoid.

Now, the main thing that I wanna share is: I was almost robbed last night.

It happened at 00.45 am when I was asleep. In my sleep, I dreamed about going to Ar rohmah putri with wearing trousers, and the senior teacher looked at me. Her look made me suddenly waken up. I woke up and heard something. I looked at my window.
Well, there's some trouble in the window lock and it causes my window unable to be locked perfectly. So, the window is still a little bit opened.
I always sleep with my lamp turned on and I can't sleep in the dark.

I saw there are hands trying to get into my room through the window, yes, I saw it behind my curtain. I was extremely surprised and shout, "WOY, OPO IKU WOEY!!! OPO IKU!!!!" (Hey, what's that?!!) then he/she ran away.

I conclude that he/she is a robber trying to get into my room.

I ran to the living room and turned on the light, and trying to go out to check whether he/she was still around my house. but my mom was waken up by the light. I told mom that there was almost a robbery.
We were quite panic and mom tried to call my neighbor, Mr. Sudjono, who is a police officer. Unfortunately, mom only has his wife's number.

Then I ensured everything to be safe. I tighten the window lock, turned all the lamps that make burglars suspicious towards what's inside my house. I checked everything and Thank God that it's all safe.
It was already 01.00 am and mom asked me to turn off my room's lamp and lock the door from outside, with previously saving my luxurious things (camera, laptop and wallet) inside my mom's room. then I continued sleeping in my brother's room (well he was hospitalized at that time)

I keep on reciting Al Ikhlas, Al falaq and An Nas while updating this status:

and also this:



Now I'm still a little bit traumatic with this accident. I ensure my window to be locked, but I still trust the window bars, so that burglars can't get into my room.

Lord, please protect me and my family from criminality. Amin.

Gotta go to sleep now. tomorrow there will be a shooting for making testimonial video with Swinging Friends Malang. hopefully the video will be displayed on mocca's last show. amin...

Good night, all. Get well soon, brother. Can't wait to see you wearing your grey uniform.

Bedroom cleaning (and a little makeover)

Whoa! just did a bedroom-cleaning which took approximately 2 hours!! (thank God I start the class at noon today) well, my bedroom is used to be extremely messy. Yeah, I'm a scrapbooker-wannabe, I looooooove to cut out cute pictures from the magazine, collecting many colorful gift papers, and to cut it as the base or background of a scrapbook or to be a cover of my books. Also, I made some crafts from flannel clothes, like lollypop brooch or flower necklaces. You know.... the craps are scattered everywhere on the floor, together with my fallen hairs (I have a trouble with my hair, recently).

Well, this bedroom cleaning produced a big bagful of paper trashes.

see? that's the trashes from my bedroom! a bagful of trashes!

I also changed my bedsheet, and rearrange some furnitures. I took out my electone from my room, cz it depletes the space beside my bed. I left some spaces beside my bed as a place for me to pray. Besides that, my lil bro likes to use my electone without returning the adaptor, the bookstand, and the cover after finished playing it.
I also roll up my gift papers collection to make it more neat, and also put in all my scrapbooking stuffs inside a box.

Well, somehow I also confused where to put my bags. I usually let it lie down anywhere on my room, on my bed, and what's worse- on my electone.

Seems that I've been abusing my electone with putting many things on it. my books, my bag, my shawl, or to put my phone on the electone when I'm charging it. that's one consideration of putting out my electone.

well, my room seems to be larger now. but this is the most exciting new part of my room:

These korean style gift papers!! These are two of my gift paper collections. I feel that it's too good to be cut into scrapbook, to be given to someone else, or to be used as book covers. so that I decided to put it on my wall to make it not plain.
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa it's soooooo damn cute!

well, I'm thinking of adding more wall decorations to my room...


(considering one more photo board besides this one)


my photo board


how about buying glow-in-the-dark wall decorations that can be bought in Na*ghty or str*beri?
hehe.

Well, I'm sure that this neatness will not last long. sooner, it will be messed up again. Somehow I'm just trying to be organized.

phew,, it's such a tiring job to clean my bedroom, and it will be messed up again very soon. Oh, please! do I need something to put my unorganized stuffs?
However, I should make my room as comfortable as possible.

but, hey? what time is it now? Lord, dhuhur time. gotta fly to campus immediately. haven't worked on critical reading final project which deadline is on the next two days! Oh shame...
