something has happened! =o

Debby declared today Anti-Chinese xD Don't know, I've gotten so used to Chinese... I might end up picking the chinese novel instead of the english one later.
I suppose Debby is now having a romantic anniversary with Leon =P

Hahaha, Chinese was frankly, easier than expected, though I'm sure I won't ace it anyway.
And Q27 of paper 2!!!!!!! Argh, that was the only killer question! Even Xiao Hui couldn't manage!

So, the day began beautifully with an sms from Bryant: "Good luck guys. Mother tongue o levels~ :D" Oh yes, he really knows how to spite us.
But I appreciate it despite the obvious message (*hint hint i'm not taking it hint hint*), because it means he spared a thought for his friends nevertheless.

Despite the joy of today, there are still things worth mourning over.


Last week, my 1st Aunt's husband died )':
I had felt incredibly sad upon hearing the news, even though I didn't know him. I did know my aunt though. There are no words to describe what a motherly figure she was, and what an impact she left in my life. I can tell she was very verry close to her husband even after nearly 40 years of marriage. He kept smsing her to return home when she was in Singapore.

Haiz, and now he is gone.
Just like that, overnight.
All of you out there don't know her, so you probably wouldn't feel the pain. I know I do.

How unfair that my aunt and her children didn't do anything to deserve his loss. Not fair I tell you, not fair.
They were faithful Catholics, especially my aunt, dedicating themselves to God.

I sort of prayed for him, and kinda asked God why. I guess it was his time, his calling (:



^ This is how a Norwegian Forest cat looks like, courtesy of those who've never seen one before. This one is cream-coloured (:
Anyway anyway, good news is, I met my grand-aunt and grand-uncle last Saturday as well! O.o They are staying in Singapore for a week, living with the grand-aunt's cousin, which is supposedly MY relative as well.
They were living in Germany before! They are here to tour!
I just realized I have an extremely incredibly long family line, and very often, I'm found facing people I never saw before but are kin.
There are scattered everywhere... most in Indonesia of course, a couple of college kids in America... few in Australia etc etc.
Back to the point, they are nice :D They kept saying we are a healthy family and how I looked so much like my mother, and how my mother looks really youthful etc.
My mother started praising that I'm dedicated to Chinese (*chokes*) and how I read Chinese books such that they had a worthy impression of meh. Uh, exams were two days away, if I'm not reading CHinese, there's somehting wrong with me? o.o

And they showed us the photo of some of their relatives (i suppose also my relatives that i never knew existed) in Germany. This lady from Indonesia married a German man, and their kids... their kids!! Two sons. So good-looking!
I love their hair, which was silky brown. The older brother is about 10, half-Asian half-German, obviously making him really dashing.
The whole family were filmed in a video.. they were singing a traditional Indonesian song and saying HI to us. So sweet x)
I'm serious about the older brother's hell good looks!
Plus plus, he plays the piano, which will make him a romantic person.

^ I think if I were to be a cat, I want to be this colour! A lighter gray though, and more of gray than white. And a slightly more mesmerizing tint of green! Also a Norwegian Forest cat.

We then took them out for dinner at Mayim in West Mall. My grand-aunt then took a video of all of us, and I didn't want to smile because I think i'd look ugly if I smiled or grinned.

And them being old folks, came to our house to see our photos! I was being a guai girl and 'studying' in my room, but I kept hearing my name associated with the word 'pretty' in indonesian language, which really disturbed me because I looked stupid in some of the photos we took in America. Haha.

Then we all took a photo together, and the old folks really made me laugh because they were pretty childish. They kept exclaiming how funny theylooked in the photo and asked my dad to erase all of them.
I am amazed that the message normally comes across much more funnily when spoken in Indonesian. And that happens very often when fellow Indonesians come together! Even in the America tour, I was faced with those I wasn't related to, but our families spoke as if we knew each other since forever. And that's why I feel so at home with many Indonesians (:

My grand-aunt and grand-uncle were such a loving couple ^^ Could see how much they cared about each other... you won't see one without the other.
I'm so glad most of my kin consist of loving couples. Meant that ther'es a higher possibility it'll happent o me as well.

News spread fast along our family line, despite our distance. My grand-aunt and grand-uncle knew about my uncle's death T_T They wrote letters of condolences already with less than a day.


This shall mark the end of my long boring ranting post, ahahaha:

1. What disappoints you most?
When I don't get what I anticipated..? and etc, too lazy to think =P

2. which are more important you? friends or boyfriends?
Friends (: The dictionary states that girls come before guys.

3. Who are the people you trust most?
The people I often talk to... the closest friends? I don't want to name lahhhhhh~

4. Do you think you have enough confidence?
Heck, NOOO.

5. what do you hate?
Nuts. Oh oh, and mushroom and banana by itself. I hate physics!! And I hate people who don't spare a thought for others and those who think the world's going to end just because something bad happened to them.

6.what kind of boys do you like?
LOL, kind understanding ones, the cliche. Must be sensitive and hopefully 'deep' so I can use the skill of hinting instead of outright telling them. Can't keep to themselves too much, in some way I have to know how they feel? xD Oh, must be strong because then they can protect girls. Someone who'll always make others feel secure (: Best if he plays the piano -grins- I am musically influenced due to the fact that my dad charmed my mother by bringing his guitar to her house to play for her.

7. what is your goal for this year?
Erm, pass the 'O' levels with flying colours and be a better person.

8. do you believe in eternity love?
I used to, now I still do but it's not as strong.

9. have you broken someone's heart till he/she wants to commit suicide?
Noo, I'm not that evil!! I am a kind person! At least, I think so O.o

10. what feeling do you love most?
The feeling of being loved and appreciated (: Yea, and happiness, RELIEF (when exams are over), anticipation for something good that's gonna happen (going back to Jakarta).

11. what are the requirements of the other half?
This is almost the same as question 6? Someone who can take me here:


^ I don't expect him to get us a flight there, I would much rather hike all the way to the North. I would freeze my toes off, and would most probably die on the way, but it's fine if I've seen a glimpse of the Northern Lights. A worthy place to die in!
And my other half should feed me to the wolves because I like the haunting beauty and nature of wolves.

Okay, that's a bit too much to expect xD Hmm, someone whom I can trust and who accepts me for who I am. And someone who'll be there for me all the time.
FYI: If I were a wolf, I want to have a tan, red, black, brown and cream-white coat because it's prettayyy. And brown eyes.

12. Do you love to make your friends happy?
Yes, haha, but in simple ways. Sometimes I don't succeed though.

13. do you cherish every single friendship of yours?
OF COURSE, DUHHHH.

14. What are the things you'd do if your days are numbered?
I shall go sky-diving!! And tell people all the things I never said before. I shall also eat mushrooms and try laughing my head off in the library. I shall also attempt to smash the computer (I've been wanting to do that), not to forget going diving, breaking my handphone etc.

15. what are the most important things in your life?
Oxygen, water, family, friends, God, love, the natural wonders, the joy of life.

16. do you love anime?
Yep, though I stopped watching a while back.

17. describe the person who tagged you in five words.
Generously compassionate, hyper and sophisticated

18. if you had one one wish, what would it be?
To live happily ever after!!

19. if you could rewind time, when would you go back to?
I don't exactly regret anything... don't want to go back to anything? Maybe to sec three, and stop myself from letting my marks be adversely affected?

20. do you love yourself?
More than anything else x)
