Ohow…
What should I say today?
Uhm…
I’m actually very tired, but I have important and nice news for you all!!!

Related with “VOTE ME VOTE ME” post, I passed the semifinal qualification and I can proceed to the Grand Final, which is held on today, January 15, 2010 in Theatrette room, Australia Embassy Jakarta at 14.30 – 16.00 p.m. (Open here to see the poster)

I need to explain the judges about my t-shirt design and make them sure that I am eligible to be the winner (the 1st and the 2nd winner will go study tour in Australia for 5 weeks!). To go until this far I have to go on facebook with my teacher. Since the announcement was on holiday, so I just mailed them and begged them so much to allow me to proceed to the grand final (because they were asking if 1 teacher could come to accompany).

Finally on 14th I got the permission and I will go there with my class advisor, Mister Carrot. Eh Uhm… I’m sorry, I mean Mister H.
I was asking my close friends at school too, Melisa and Zahrah. (Check who is Zahrah by click this!)

My friends are crazy! (and even the security guard at school!) We mocked our teacher along the way to the embassy, until we went back again to school.

PART I
Start from the car, the security guard asked us what we were going to do.
Security : “Who’s accompanying you? Your class advisor, right?”
Me : “Yes, Mr. H.”
Security : “Why does he look like a carrot?” (FYI, my CA’s name is Harold, sounds similar, right?)
Zahrah : “WHAT?! CARROT???”
Security : “Eits, don’t tell him okay!”
Zahrah : “All right, Sir, I absolutely WILL TELL him right away.” (looking at the security’s name)
Security : “Don’t tell him that it was me!”
Zahrah : “Okay, Sir INDRA!”

PART II
On the way to the embassy, Mr. H was so quiet. He seems in a silent mode and we were talking about him RIGHT BEHIND him, but using Bahasa Indonesia, of course. He couldn’t speak Bahasa Indonesia anyway. Actually we were hoping the one who accompany us is Mr. Okama #2. (Check Mr. Okama #2 video here)
Mr. Okama is funnier and cheerful, exactly the opposite of Mr. H. Unfortunately he’s an economic teacher, so there is no reason for him to accompany us. Since the competition is all about art and Mr. H is our class advisor.

PART III
At the embassy it was exactly like A JAIL!!! In the front gate there are some security guards. They checked every single thing on Mr. H’s body. We? No, of course. Just need to wipe our hands with yellow things (Dunno what is it) then went through the scanning room. It was like moving from one jail to another jail. At the end, there was the real embassy I guess, and we just need to follow the arrow.

PART IV
The room for the Grand Final was awesome. I was sitting beside Mr. H, and still he didn’t say any single things, except asking for a help on translating. So there were 3 judges, and immediately after they open the Grand Final they announced the TOP 10 Finalists. I was the 2nd finalists, and unfortunately my powerpoint presentation wasn’t allowed to be used. So I was panicked all of a sudden and spontaneously talked like a coward. I have tried to explain my purpose on designing the t-shirt. I told them how good my t-shirt was. UNFORTUNATELY, while I was trying to explain how good my t-shirt was, the other finalists exactly tried to explain HOW THEY REALLY WANTED TO GO TO AUSTRALIA. A lil bit kampretto… Because I didn’t even mention that I want to go to Australia. Well in fact I wasn’t that interest to go to Australia, but it’s free after all, so why not? I was shocked a bit. Really.

PART V
When the judges were doing their best to decide, we have a little snack across the room there. Finally Mr. H smiled right after I told him that we were going to eat. I laughed a lot there along with Melisa and Zahrah. We didn’t wanna be ungrateful with the food so we ate quite a lot, except Melisa and her promise: GBM (GA BOLEH MAKAN) means she couldn’t eat, she’s on a diet. I took 2 unknown cakes, it’s tasted good. Zahrah took 3 risoles and 2 unknown cakes. Mr. H took 1 unknown cake and a cup of coffee. We were very very alay~

PART VI
Then the announcement came. どきどきするんだよ。Luckily I got the 5th place (not bad, huh?). I was hoping to get 1st or 2nd actually, I didn’t need LOMO camera. I wanted to go to Australia too…


Well, nevermind. Keep fighting, myself!

PART VII
Mr. H told me that perhaps I lost in the presentation. My English was so bad and I wasn’t looked very confident. He laughs then! HE LAUGHS! Omaigad…
So by walking out from the room we talked about why and how things. We talked in English and some participants looked us like, wow they talked in foreign language! (Somehow I feel arrogant here.) Then he said, even if I win, I only have 4 weeks off, so I will miss 1 week school, plus there will be a lot of tests by next month and about 4 months later. Geez…

PART VIII
We arrived at school again and he didn’t say anything, he went on tapping out then leaving us without any greetings if I didn’t say thank you and goodbye. But well, thanks to him for accompanying us. Australia’s cool!

Check my next post to see about the prize I got!

Well uh... I've just woken up at 10 a.m.
And I have a very great dream last night, so I think I should write it down here because it's very IMPORTANT!

The cause of my dream is exactly because of my chat with my best friends last night.
I was having a conference chat with X and Y. So we were talking about Y's boyfriend, then talk about X's boyfriend, and I was very shock to know that X was also taken as well!!! (Sebenernya udah dicritain dari dulu, tapi baru ngeh sekarang...)

Of course I was shock! I don't have a boyfriend yet!!! And I never think to get someone who is very older than me!!! (Both of them got men.)
So then I promised to them that I will get a man too soon!

On that night (exactly it's already in the morning) I sleep.
Then I dream I have a boyfriend who is very older than me. He loves me very much, but his mother is very fierce (hah???). No, I mean, very mean, no mercy. My family looks like the poor one, and we beg him so much. Then they invite us to come to a party, and that is the end of my dream. (Kok kayak sinetron yang gue tonton minggu lalu???)

Yeah, actually the dream wasn't that short. I just suddenly forget it. But can you guess who's my boyfriend in my dream???

In truth, he is really handsome in my dream! He's cool, he's caring and I'm just so in love with him! What a crazy dream I have...

But really, I ain't interested to fall in love with someone who is really older than me...
Sorry to dream about you, Mister...

WAHOY!!!
こんにちはみなさん！！！　お久しぶりだね！

Last month, I had suffered with A LOT of crazy projects and semester exam. It was a painful month…
I even got Gastroenteritis and had to recover for about 5 days.

So then I missed the Team Building Activities (which I had paid and got nothing!). But, my disappointment was cured by seeing my report card. It wasn’t bad, at least no F… よかったです。

That’s all the reason why I was too lazy to make a new post.
But, here I am~

Today, I have a reunion.

It was lame, just forget it.

Here are some of my EL friends from Sang Timur

(DOC: Priska's)
I got a “12 Colors Crayon” with Doraemon as the cover!!!

It’s from William. So we got to exchange gifts. Even the gift was actually my choice - I helped him choose the gift, and I get it as my gift at the end – I love it! What a luck…

Before we went eating, we took photos! Xp

Cindy - Me - Audrey


Then some friends still gathered and we decided to have a chat at J.co.



And when there were only me and Cindy left, we go on pumping!!!
There was a nice accident but actually not VERY NICE though!!! I’ll tell you some in Bahasa Indonesia.

Me : (Stress nge-pump. Asal pencet.)
Cindy : (Stay on focus. The song wasn’t really hard for her.)

Suddenly…

Stranger Man : (Nyolek-nyolek bahu gue) “HP-nya jatuh…” (Sambil nunjuk ke bawah.)
Me : (Kalap. Sambil ngos-ngosan mungut HP malang yg hidup untuk dibanting. Si stranger pergi.)
Mesin PUMP IT UP : “GAME OVER! Why don’t you just stop dancing, Man!”
Me : “Loh, Cind?” (Noleh ke Cindy sambil ngakak.)
Cindy : (Ternyata dia kalap juga. Pas noleh ke layar, kita udah kalah.)
Me : “Loh?! Gue kira lo tetep main, makanya gue santai (mungut HP)…”
Cindy : “GILA, RIN! COWOK TADI GANTENG BANGET!”
Me : “HAH?! MASA’?!” (Mata langsung mencari Stranger)

Unfortunately, he’d already gone with his friends. I didn’t remember his face, since I only saw his pointing hand. But I was hoping we would meet again someday~

But unfortunately, he did make us failed for such a song!!! Really, it wasn't a difficult one, and we got failed!
