Selamat siang. Hari ini saya berkantor di kantor pusat yang jaraknya ga nyampe sekilo dari kantor saya biasanya, tapi karena macet dari kantor ke kantor pusat bisa satu jam! Bahkan lebih! Terima kasih loh pembangunan jalan layang casablanca T___T Mumpung lagi ga makan siang, mari kita bikin selasa lima: 1. Senang karena bisa trawih di rumah bareng2 tim di rumah. Yang jadi imam biasanya Kang Uung, yang baca doa Kang Ali, yang baca niat keras2 kang Alwan. Suami, saya, teteh dan mbak jadi makmum. Oya, ada makmum cilik ikutan traweh, tapi 2 rakaat dia udah bosen dan mulai gangguin deh :P 2. Belanja buat oleh2 lebaran asisten sudah lengkap kap kap, tinggal dibagiin seminggu sebelum mereka mudik, jadi mereka sempet cari2 dulu di jakarta kalo ada yang kurang buat keluarga mereka. 3. Begitu pula dengan pengaturan mudik mereka, insya Allah sudah firmed. Semoga mereka selamat di perjalanan, bisa berkumpul dengan keluarga, dan kembali ke Jakarta dengan selamat pula. Amin. Rata2 cuti mereka 9-10 hari di kampung. 4. Eh, belum cerita ya kalo Kang Ali, alhamdulillah, kembali bekerja dengan kita :) Jadi Pilar ada yang anter ke sekolah, selain sama teteh tentunya. Pengen nyoba, bisa ga ya anaknya dianter kang Ali aja ga usah sama tetehnya. 5. Kerjaan? Siap2 acting boss mulai jumat ini sampai lebaran. Masih deg2an karena ga pernah ditinggal selama ini untuk ngurusin hal yang serumit ini T__T Bisa mia, bisa! Sekian dan terima kasih.

Salut jeune homme, Qu’est-ce qu’on a éclaté ce matin, n’est-ce pas ? la rentrée a l’école n’est jamais si cool avec toi. Tu es un peu timide mais reste charmant. Ca me fait beaucoup penser a ton papa tu sais. Mon Pilar, je ne peux être pas la tous les jours a l’école comme les autres maman. J’étais la ce matin et mon Dieu que ca m’a fait du bonheur de te voir de lointain, de te voir grandir ayant les plus forts de nos talents, d’aller jusqu'au bout dans tous les actions. Je t’avais pas dit que je suis vachement fière de toi ? Alors, je te prie de m’excuser si je devais partir ce midi pour revenir au bureau, si je ne t’amène pas a l’école tous les lundis, mercredis, et vendredis car l’horaire au bureau me permet pas ce faire, si je viens que lors de la rentrée, la revue parents-profs, et l’assemblée annuelle. Je t’avais pas dit que je t’aime, malgré tout ? Ton sourire me manque chaque second. A ce soir, Pilar.

i "regained" my french the past 6 months, simply because my boss is now a french and he refuses to speak in english, don't even ask his bahasa :P it's a good and bad thing. good thing i could grab back some old phrases and expressions and speak french naturally. bad thing i'm losing my english :( i guess i should keep the balance between these 2 languanges. i'm no language saint who can switch modes in seconds :D

sunday five, in the middle of the year 2012

1. blogspot has been a mess, that's one of the reason i couldn't post anything the past one month. 2. we had so much fun in jogja for 4 days last month. the top spot in our list would be: mesastila - coffee plantation, merapi, and prambanan temple. i'll get back with some pictures :) 3. we had a small reunion-weekend in bandung with bestfriends and family. stayed at the valley hotel, 2 villas, 3 families, 4 toddie boys (unfortunately one girl was missing due to her on-call weekend job, maybe next time Na!). The huge playground, warmed water swimming pool, jacuzzi, nice food + view was so perfect for the occasion...and off-course we (the girls) got to chat up to...hmmm 2 o'oclock in the morning while the husbands were taking care of the kids (i'd say, sleeping with them). had another round reunion at my place 2 weeks after before one of us had to go back to houston. sniff sniff, see you soon aniw :') 4. parents' house next to ours is soon to be finished. finally we have ourselves a neighbour :) the environment's got pimped-up a bit so little pilar can have his bike ride on better paved-road, we could have a badminton or football session outside, great thing indeed. this whole effort to make our home a better place to live is truly something, something to strive for :) 5. and finally, after 10 months of thinking, re-thinking, going to i don't recall how many showrooms and sales persons, i decided to buy a small car for myself, and to take the boy to the school on school-days. she's supposed to be ready in two weeks, so i better renew my 4 years old due driving license :D it's second half of 2012 already, ramadan very soon, then lebaran where i'll be getting my 2 weeks off. til' next post and take care!
