My first encounter with her was four five years ago. She smiled toward me when I visited her child. It was warm. Yes, it was warm when I shook her hand and she asked my name. We started talking. The topic was about my origin, where I lived and many things.
Then, we became even close. Visiting your home, not only meant visiting your child, but also meant seeing you. Simply to taste your hot tea or tried nice chocolate you brought from abroad.
Five years passed very fast. When I had to leave Jogja, and your child had to be in Australia for studying. Thus, we rarely met. I always tried to spare my time to pass by to your nice home when I went to Jogja. My last visit to your home was last month. I saw you sick. Lying weakly, trying to fight against the cancer. Though you talked hesitantly, you clearly delivered what’s in your mind. I knew that you survived, despite the sickness that took you to the lowest point of your life. Really, I knew it Tante.
Now you passed away. Tante, you’re not defeated by the cancer. It’s just your turn and our turn will arrive. Au revoir Tante…..

Today, February 12, two friends of mine and my aunt are celebrating their birth day. It’s formidable to have three special persons who were born in the same date.
Happy birth day for lovely Ajeng. Though it’s been so long we never meet each other, I’m sure you are as beautiful as the last time i saw you.
Mas Indra Kala. Wow…you’re older now dude!!!! I’m still on my workstation, waiting for your treatment in Pasir Putih. Mad guys will gather soon again!!! Any way, go ahead!!! Success is a certainty for you.
Mba Is..tanteku. Great mother of Shafa and Audry. Now, a chocolate expert who’s running home-made chocolate business. Well, I know your creativity won’t stop even you stay at home for your beloved daughters. Instead, your idea soar up beyond the domestic borders. They can’t confine you!!!
Happy birthday every one…..

Rabu 18 Oktober 2006
Rio to Thea: Thea ntar sore jadi?
Thea to Rio: Jadi Yo. Di Plangi ya.
Rabu 18 Oktober (17.45-till drop)
Akhirnya semua berkumpul. Aku, Rio, Abi, Kala ma Yuan. Minus Liza yang katanya bakal nyusul. Seperti biasa, Plangi selalu penuh di jam-jam segitu. Karena ga dapet tempat duduk, setelah menghabiskan air mineral dan teh kemasan, kita mutusin untuk magriban dulu. Berjejal dengan puluhan orang yang juga pengen salat di mushola yang kecil, kita akhirnya berhasil menunaikan shalat dengan selamat? Kenapa selamat? Saking kecilnya tuh mushola, dan banyaknya orang yang mau sholat, kondisinya mungkin bisa disamain kayak sholat di masjidil haram yang penuh dengan orang. Udah syukur ga keinjek apa kesikut.
Habis itu kita mengitari lantai 3A Plangi buat cari resto yang cozzy. It’s not about food but also bout the place. Resto yang cozy memungkinkan kita mingle dengan enak. Pilihan jatuh ke sebuah restoran Thailand yang chic. Sayangnya tempatnya masi penuh sehingga kami mesti nunggu sekitar 10 menitan. Sambil menunggu tempat, kami pun ngobrol. Topiknya beragam, tapi yang paling seru pas ngomongin gaji ma THR…hehehe.
Ga kerasa tempat buat kami dah available. Kami pun masuk dan mulai memesan menu. Merasa asing dengan menunya, tanpa ragu kami memanggil waitress untuk menjelaskan apa saja yang ada di menu itu( sori ya mas). Lha daripada pesen tapi ga taunya makanannya aneh. Kan rugiiiiii….
Setelah selesai memesan, kami lanjutkan acara ngobrolnya. abi mengeluarkan HP barunya yang 3G enabled. Kerennn. Yang lain cuma bisa bedoa semoga bulan depan perusahaan bisa ngasih HP kayak yang Abi punya. Amiennnnn
Tak lama, pesanan pun datang. Pesenanku Stirred seafood and tofu with rice terlihat enak. Ternyata emang bener. Rasanya enak. Sambil makan kita terus ngobrol sampe si Liza datang menyusul. Lalu dimulai lah photo session pake HP barunya Abi.
Udah lama banget kami ga ngumpul kayak kemaren. Three months ago seemed so long that we almost forgot to go home as it was near to nine o’clock. Time to get to home. Menyenangkan sekali bisa meluangkan waktu kayak gini. In between the hectic office activities, to have and enjoy such moment is precious. Kapan ya bisa ngumpul bareng lagi? Mungkin di penghujung tahun 2006. Seperti kata Abi, “Bagaimana kalo kita ke Sukabumi?”. Hhmm terbayang Salabintana trus rafting di Citarik. Ayo!!!! Siapa takut!!!!

What I thought wasn’t mine
In the light
Was one of a kind,
A precious pearl
When I wanted to cry
I couldn’t cause
I Wasn’t allowed
Gomennasai for everything
Gomennasai, I know I let you down
Gomennasai till the end
I never needed a friend
Like I do now
What I thought wasn’t all
So innocent
Was a delicate doll
Of porcelain
When I wanted to call you
And ask you for help I stopped myself
Gomennasai for everything
Gomennasai, I know I let you down
Gomennasai till the end
I never needed a friend
Like I do now
What I thought was a dream
A mirage
Was as real as it seemed
A privilege
When I wanted to tell you
I made a mistake
I walked away
Gomennasai, for everything
Gomennasai, Gomennasai,
I never needed a friend,Like I do now
Gomennasai, I let you down
Gomennasai, Gomennasai, Gomennasai,
Gomennasai till the endI never needed a friend
Like I do now
Gomennasai…I am sorry…
Friend indeed is a friend in need
Friendship is a sincere relationship where two or more human cretaures share their views, stories, experiences, cries, laughs, disappointements, and happiness. I recall a memory when i was in university. I had several close friends and we always shared our great moments. Sometimes, we admired a same handsome boy, cheatted, hanged out, and ate out together.What a memorable experience. Yet it broke…yes our at last our friendship couldn’t last. The reason behind it i thought was very silly. Anyhow, it could drive our ongoing relationship at that time ruined. Selfishness of us emerged prominently over bitterness or happines we made. Everybody claimed that herself was the right one. Tear poured…….
Nothing could be stronger than a friendship! That’s what i thought. Finally i know that self-centered point of view can mislead it.
