Having two jobs, running a restaurant, having a social life, a family life and a love life is starting to seem next to impossible.
Capeekk...

Whenever I'm weary from the battles that rage in my head
You make sense of madness when my sanity hangs by a thread
I lose my way but still you seem to understand
Thank you :*

It's a SMALL world after all.
Jadi gw punya satu orang teman yang kronologi cerita cintanya interestingly mirip berat sama gw.
Dulu pertama kali kita kenalan itu Januari 2005 pas kita lagi sama-sama magang di salah satu perusahaan asuransi di Jakarta. Pas baru kenal aja kita connect banget, the chemistry is there. Kita super nyambung dan ngobrol sama dia itu asik banget. Terus karena waktu itu kita sama-sama masih kuliah di Oz, walau beda kota, selesai program magang itu ya baliklah kita ke "kampung" masing-masing. Tapi dari saat itu kita selalu keep in contact, walau boleh dibilang lumayan jarang berkomunikasi.
Lucunya, saat itu kita baru sama-sama putus dari pacar kita saat itu. Then about a year later, pas gw lagi main ke Jakarta dan lagi jalan sama pacar gw [yang notabene ceritanya waktu itu gw balikan sama sang mantan] gw ketemu sama teman gw itu yang juga lagi jalan sama pacarnya. Dan ternyata teman gw itu balikan juga sama mantannya! What a coincidence right? Then ngga lama gw putus dan dia juga at around the same time. Hmm... coincidence lagi..
Terus Februari 2006 dia udah for good ke Jakarta dan mulai kerja di salah satu perkantoran di Kuningan, pas di belakangnya Setiabudi One. Kebetulan gw lagi magang di perkantoran di sebelah Setiabudi One. Jadilah kita beberapa kali janjian ketemuan kalau pulang kantor.
Tahun 2007 pas gw lagi deket lagi sama mantan gw, dia juga deket lagi sama mantannya. Ada apa dengan kita ya? Haha.
Naaah... Februari 2008 gw for good juga ke Jakarta jadi kita tetapkan untuk ketemuan at least seminggu sekali. Dan pada saat yang bersamaan [again] kita lagi deket sama pria baru. Lalu jadianlah gw sama teman pria gw itu. Dan sebulan kemudian, dia jadian juga sama teman pria dia.
Semalam ceritanya kita mau double date, biar bisa saling memperkenalkan/memamerkan pacar masing-masing. Bertemulah kita. DAN TERNYATA... pacar gw dan pacar dia satu smp DAN satu sma walau beda angkatan dan apparently pas sma mereka beberapa kali nongkrong bareng di sekolah walau mereka ngga deket. DAN TERNYATA [lagi]... pacar gw dan teman gw itu satu smp.. Jadilah kita berempat super heboh dengan coincidence ini. Gw sama teman gw sih cuma bisa speechless dan geleng-geleng kalau ingat kesamaan cerita cinta kita berdua.
I'm telling you.. It's a damn small world!
Quick update:
Starting Kamis lalu gw ngajar inggris di Institut Musik Indonesia. Seru!
Hari pertama ngajar kenalan sama Badai-nya Kerispatih dan ketemu Deva-nya Pilot :P Hari ini gw datang wisudaan terus di depan gw duduklah Anton Kerispatih. Woo hoo. Seru! Haha.

Sesungguhnya gw lagi amatsangat happy. Happpyyyy banget.
Tapiii... [damn, kenapa kalimat yang begitu indahnya dimulai dengan "gw lagi amatsangat happy" harus ditambahin "tapiii..."??]
I can't deny it because sometimes it does cross my mind.. What would happen if he ever left me? I've been through a break-up before and it's not pretty. It took manymany bruises, litres of tears resulting in panda eyes, thousands of swear words, hundreds of sleepless nights, living on the brink of depression and TWO years to get over.
This guy makes me so happy that I can't help but wonder what would happen if anything bad did happen. Then it makes me want to pull back a little bit, just in case. Is that stupid? Is it stupid to think like that?
I think I'm afraid to be happy because whenever I get too happy,
something bad always happens.

I am sick. Again. For the.. what? Fifth time this year?
Perasaan dulu-dulu I only get the flu once a year deeehh.. And that's not even the full version of the flu. It's more like a cold. Now I get the works? The coughing, the sore throat, watery eyes, nasal voice...
A few hypotheses as to why:
1. Lack of exercise.
2. Lack of quality sleep!
3. Lack of outdoorsy activities.
They say people don't get the flu from staying outdoors, but from staying indoors too much.
At least when I was still in Perth I spent time outdoors. I walked around at uni, I walked around in the city, the occassional sitting around in parks... And I was getting exercise! The walking, occassional trips to the gym... Damn, this is not good for me! Haha.
Anyway... maybe I'm also taking on too much.. Got too much going on in my head!
Gotta go and think some more! :P
