My Laptop Is Broken!!!


I think this is the hardest moment ever in my life.

I just got back from Jogjakarta. I had applied for Gadjah Mada University right there and really wish I could pass the test on the following week. I also had fun to hang out with my friend Ogi, Putri and AFSers chapter Jogja. I spent my time by visiting Kraton, Candi Prambanan, Taman Sari and Malioboro. I had exquisite moment with my favorite little cousin, Ikra Preswara. Although getting wet by rain on the last day after AFSers dinner, I still enjoyed the happiness atmosphere there.

Then I came back to Makassar.
The story is so simple. I got a little fight with my oldest sister because of the internet using in our house. But then she suddenly exaggerated her stupid madness into wild and barbarian act by throwing my laptop to the floor. I was so shocked. On that time I hope my lovely laptop that have been accompanied me from USA will be fine. But when I tried to start it on again, it won't work. I realized a horrible nightmare has come.

So, a computer expert came over to our place and tried to fix it. Unfortunately he said that the hard disk was broken and I'll lose all data I have. I can't belief this!!! Oh My God.

My pictures during exchange year in USA!
My memory with all of my friends there!
My video with my host-family!
My school folders!
My writings! My essays! My stories!
My music! My jazz!
My life, my everything!
And the newest pictures on Jogja!

Shit. What can I say to her? Get rotten in the hell? Be buried in the dark pit of sharp-tooth worms?

I can't even cry anymore. I lose all of my feelings like a walking zombie.
Gosh, my precious experience that'd been captured on pictures are gone. I pray to God he'll get me a better situation after all of this nasty crap.

Lord have Mercy on me...

I MISS OZZIE (KORTLAND) FLICKINGER SO MUCH!!!


Ozzie (Kortland) Flickinger was my best buddy ever during my exchange year in USA. I met him for the first time in World Of Food Class by Mrs. Murray. Together with Rachel C, Ani, and JB we made a really good friendship. He loves hardcore music so much and adore The Beatles! I wish I could meet him again someday.

I MISS KARAK KALIANG SO BAD!!!

Sunday, 8:28 PM



Habis pulang dari Unhas. Ikut lomba B. Inggris di HI, this is my farewell debate!!!

Alhamdulillah, dapat juara 2 umum, juara 2 debat, juara 2 storytelling, and Best Speaker. But I think I could still do better though :D

Capek.
Ntah mengapa aku teringat karak kaliang.
Ooh... karak kaliang...
8 tahun sudah kutinggalkan Ranah Minang. Namun tetap saja, tempat dimana kuhabiskan 'early childhood' itu menyisakan serpihan2 tradisi yang tak bisa hilang.
Sampai hari ini saya masih mencintai makanan minang dengan sepenuh hati!
Rendang, ayam kalio, sate kumpulan, dendeng batokok, waduuuuh... can't be described by words!!!
Terakhir kali makan snack kuning mungil nan keras itu justru pas di Athens. Di Amerika!!!
Ceritanya, Bang Sandra Nahdar yang abis pulang kampuang bawa buah tangan makanan khas dari Padang. Nah, si jagoan kuning itu salah satunya.


Ingat, dulu waktu kecil dalam perjalanan pulang dari rumahnya Opa Dinar (almarhum) di Padang, sepanjang jalan di Bukittinggi banyak kedai-kedai yang menggantung berbungkus-bungkus karak kaliang.

Aduuuh,,, nggak tahan!!!!
Dulu di Denpasar nggak ada karak kaliang.
Sekarang ke Makassar juga nggak ada.
Hiks... Karak kaliang, engkau sungguh tiada duanya!!!

TANHANA DHARMA MANGRWA!!!
