if you still remember me...

OMG!! It’s been centuries and centuries since my last post! I’ve been through thousands of things in the last 3 months. Well, actually almost 4 months. So many great times and bad ones too, that I really don’t know where to start. I guess I’ll just have to start blogging all over again.

Here’s the story, from A to Z…

November 2006 : I was so busy with my final project at school. Working really hard on it was the only way that could help me graduate in time and release me from the long and (sometimes) boring hours of evening classes I’ve been taking the whole 2006. So I have to sweat my butt off, working at the club at day and doing the project at night. We supposed to spend the whole semester working on our projects. But with all the delays, and for one and too many reasons we started on November. And unfortunately for us, it was due early January 2007. It means we only had less than 3 months to finish the project.

December 2006 : It was the busiest month of 2006 for me. We were facing “the payment month” at the club, the month when all of our club members have to pay their membership fee and their other bills. And you know those nagging and bad attitude from the members didn’t do us any good at all. As we all know, December is the month of Christmas. Lots of things to prepare too for the Christmas day at the church. I did some dance choreography and performed on the D day. And since it was December, I was one step closer to the deadline while I almost had no time to work on the project. And FYI, I broke up with Adit just a day before the New Year’s Eve. If it’s not terrible enough, I had to cancel all the plans I’ve made for the New Year’s Eve party with my friends. I ended up having BBQ dinner with my family. It was okay though.

January 2007 : The month of my project's deadline. Though I wasn’t ready to submit the project (in fact I think I would never be ready to submit it), on the 10th I went to Karawaci to submit my final paper. Meanwhile, the disaster at the club wasn’t over yet. On 29th Simon drove me to perform my final presentation and unfortunately I only got B for the whole project. It’s not satisfying actually, but looking back at the effort I had been given on it, I really deserved the grade. If you think these school thing was over, you’re wrong! I still have to make some major and minor changes to my final paper before the final submission, due 16th February. But at least I graduated and got the Bachelor degree. From now on you can call me

February 2007 : I lost exactly a week of my time before the final submission. YES! The flood!! This year’s flood was really terrible. The water reached more than 60 cm inside of my house. The electricity went out. I should post the pictures and show you guys the mess. We spent two whole days to clean all the mud and bad odors left.

Earlier today, I heared a voice said : "Start writing again or forever hold your peace…". I decided to write.


p.s. I really can’t wait spending fantastic times with my friends…  So please guys... TAKE ME OUT!!!
