yoan (admin)Dear Internet,
Long time no see. The blog, I meant. Offcourse I have been online. I have cyberpets on my facebook page, and I need to bitch-slap rivals that have been attacking me on sorority life. It only makes sense to go online so often.
oh, and I have been tweeting pretty much lately. not because the site fascinates me, and surely not because I have given into the mass -as I have had my own twitter account long before all the ho-ha, even before I have finished that constipating final paper I whined oh so much about last year. I tweet simply because I, now, can. to quote shitmydadsays, “no one gives a shit about what your cellphone can do. you didn’t invent it. you just bought it. anybody can do that”.
I am now blogging from Semarang, city of Lumpia. Have been here since Sunday, and I’ll be here for around two weeks. Work related, that’s prolly why I should be getting back to work now because the dude sitting in front of me, across the hallway, has been giving me those “werk, peasant, werk!” eye.
Before I go back to reality, where analysis on foreign trade awaits, let’s journey back to time where I dislike things a lot. Wait, that’ll just be what Americans refer to as “present”. I find this city quite..pleasant. I haven’t found anything to dislike, so far. I even liked the church here! or the sentence should be: I even went to church here. It was an old church, which would be a lovely photo-object, and I like the ambience there as well. and the music, wow, the music is enchanting. it sounds like Disney’s in a way that it makes me want to get up and use those dancing-legs of mine. clearly I wasn’t talking about myself.
The food here is not that challenging in price also. Wait, that would be an understatement, the food here is CHEAP. I had Soto Ayam for lunch, and it only cost me 3000 rupiahs, which is like $ 33 cents! I took a cab from the mall back to my hotel, it started at 4.500 rupiahs and stoped at friggin 4.750 rupiahs when we’ve reached the hotel! how can you not love Indonesia, Internet?
But somehow, I feel like the nights here goes by so slowly, even when I’m asleep! it’s like Einstein’s theory of relativity doesn’t apply shit here after 8 pm. I say 8 pm because I was in the office until 8 pm the other night, it didn’t feel that long oddly, I know, I myself am pretty amazed that I have somehow lost the acute awareness I usually have towards all the misery surrounding me.
The nights here goes by too slowly that I woke up in the middle of the night, feeling like I’m already late for work, only to find that it was only 1 am. so I went back to sleep and woke up feeling very fresh…at 3 am. That time I almost shrieked at my cellphone that displayed 3 am like it was mocking me. But then I realized I’d rather use the energy to struggle myself back to sleep again.
And now I feel the need to struggle to stay awake.
But I should get back to preparing next week’s presentation, so yawn yawn, blog to your later.
PS. I think Boyfran & I should spend some quality time together, distant form other interest. This whole LDR and being a grown up drama is boring. shit, it’s making ME boring.
