At morning I was SMS-ing ppl here and there especially Leez-chan. But near midday, Lidya and Meme went out, I entried data for the library research. It was about the lecturers opinion on the library. Many things are funny, but because they're confidential, I couldn't spill it out here. But, I just found out that one of our lecturer is very young! (S)he (no identity rite?) can be an older sibling to all of us. But (s)he definitely couldn't teach at all! ^^;
After I finished bathing there's this SMS came from Linda, I think she's trying to send a pic message from a Nokia cell! ^^;
Anyways, when L&M went back, Meme ask me and Titin to go to Tunjungan Plaza with them. >_< Okay, I need some refreshment.
Before we went out, I saw Andy Lau's clip in MTV. It was weird to hear him singing in Mandarin. I'm used to hear him speaking/singing in Cantonese. I couldn't figure out why did most of my friends don't like Cantonese?
Lidya ask if we could go to Delta Plaza first, she wants to buy shoes =p and wallet and lots of other things. ^^; But, first we have to eat. As usual we ate at Dundee's. It's delicious, cheap, although the soap is sticky *_* and when I got up to clean myself a guy wash his hands using the overflow soap in the 'mangkok' @_@ *disgust* After dat we just circling around. At a CD/Game CD store I saw this pirated version of Fighting Girl and lots of stuff. Also I saw MG2 VCDs. It's so damned expensive! I rather wait for the pahe, although I'm not very keen on buying that 'cheap story'! But the scenes were great, bahasa gambarnya indah sekali, siapa sih yang bertanggung jawab untuk pengambilan gambar-gambar indah itu?
At TP, Lidya cuts her hair, while the rest of us went to Sogo's bookstore to find any Nakayoshi or others that's available. Unfortunately, there's none, except some adult manga mag (I assume it was an adult one, seeing the pics in d cover, but Meme said it was for young adult, whatever!) So we went straight back to the hair saloon (?) and Lidya had finished already. Then we went to Gunung Agung, Lidya agreed because she needs to find some European languages dictionary and stuff (remember, she's a football fanatic?). But she decided not to buy any. And sat in my lap ^^; Lid, don't embarass me here, we'll do the lovey-dovey at home XD *ditimpuk*
Next stop is Gramedia. Finally Lidya bought the stuff here. I was interested in a book called Stay Strong and ask Meme to buy it for me. =p
Then we ate ice-cream at Mon Cheri. >_< There was no choco! So I have to order Black Forest Ice cream. Lidya wants to order Banana Split but there was no banana @_@ and we ended up saw our bills 'dicoret di sana-sini' Meme bought Anima Genki (the fake Anima) for its calendar. Huge sweatdrops when we saw the pin-up at the back, it was MG2 with f4 and the girls smiling at the stars (?) >_< and when Meme saw the calendar and no bishie around, she went 'mencak-mencak' :D
There was also a period when all of us take the eye test. My minus is lower than the last one also my cylinder. Titin's was the same as before. Meme's rises a few minus because the glasses she had, had been with her for two years. While Lidya had the minus:0.50 for each eye and but her cylinder was pretty high compared to mine. I dunno anything about what is the cause or the effect of having cylinder when Lidya ask me, but Titin knows a bit so she answered her. Meme bought a new frame and lenses. First, we choose at the 'ibu-ibu' section and were told, 'Mbak, yang model anak muda sebelah sana!' XDDD (Miss, the frames for you are over there!) Lidya went very kampung over Meme's new frame. Hey, Ephi, don't I look a lot smarter with this on? *throw up*
Then came the clothes shopping ^^; (I don't like shopping things like this actually, but I have to bear with them!) At matahari, while we're attending a knitted shirt, a shopkeeper were yelling at her partner, 'Itu mah bukan Hua Zhe Lei tapi Rhoma Irama!' XDDD (That's not Hua Zhe Lei, but more like Rhoma Irama!) We went giggling for a few secs. Rhoma Irama is a senior dangdut artist, whose customes were *coughs* funky! He's a dangdut legend though! *glances at Shun* XDDD BTW, did u watch JingleDut, a Christmas show held by AnTeVe to celebrate Christmas? *collapsed laughing*
My feet hurts so much! I tried a shirt, but when I tried to buttoned it ....^^; it won't fit at the upper area! T-T ihik10x (© Leez) *stabbed everyone for thinking pervert*
Titin's pretty annoying by saying stuff. I know she meant well, but there are times when you don't want ppl to speak and they do, that's the situation. Like, you know you can ask for a bigger size...*death glare* Lidya's eye were trained to look for the word discount [he he heh!]
After dat, we went to Food Court to bought our dinner. Then, we went home. Watch Grease 2. Who's that Michael? He looks so adorable.
After bathing, I saw two SMS from Shun's sis cell and Kyo-kun (no sukebei~~~~ *ditimpuk*). I answer them but only that perverted Kyo-kun answered, the other pervert had slept apparently *gets bricked and stabbed by both boys* Kyo-kun, latihan raungan serigalanya di mana? Awas batuk loh! XDDD Kalo ketemu ama kamu, gw bawa bodyguard deh!

I overslept until 10 AM, so no one went to Christmas morning service XDDD. Rain poured heavily, also lots of thunderstorms. So I went back to bed. Lidya fried some fish. *drool* Lately she's been making fried salt water fish and colo-colo. (read: cholo-cholo, not kolo-kolo like a shop keeper here!) Back in Ambon, this is a common food. Colo-colo is made of vinegar, slices of red onion, slices of chili (just a little). My mum use lime water as a substitute for vinegar that was used by real Ambonese, because it'll damaged our tooth. You can add tomatoes slices, more chili, smashed white onion, or soya bean sauce with it. OMG, I'm drooling on the keyboard *sweatdrops* The fish is usually this mackarel or most common is skipjack tuna (ikan cakalang) *slurp*
I wasn't aware that it has already afternoon and I haven't even bathed! So at 3, I took a bath and 2 hours after dat I went to the warnet with Meme. Uhm, I felt terrible!
At night, I exchange SMS with Aya-san like crazy. He's using his sis' cell# *getok Aya-san, kasian adek km!* We were watching TV. He's watching MG2 while I'm watching MTV EMAs. It was totally censored! Although, I think MTV is way too much on the s3x exposure. Pamela Lee and Christina. Christina's dress was uhm open in places dat should be closed. Pssst, Aya missed it *diabolical laughter* *gets bricked*
Get hystericall looking at Alex from the Calling. Uhm, I don't like his girlfriend >_< She's too typical! Blonde, Kylie Minogue like. When the Calling went on stage for the New Act award....they looked really nervous (and psst, Alex looking really uke here! Mwa ha ha *ducks avoid any bricks throwned*). Anyway, when they presented an award, er....wasn't that a bottle in Alex's hand? Man! There was Nick Carter. And Anastacia, looking really....seme! XDDD Help me, I'm falling too deep in this world XDDD
Whaddaya mean by he's your simpanan? You Playboy! Poor Aya, first Ito, then Leo, then Alex Tian, now Alex from the Calling? It's a poligon love now! XDDD
Er...I was asking for Leez's pic and she replied, want my ecchi pics? >_< But it was taken when I was a b-a-b-y! *bricks Leez* Yes, yes, but it's better if it's the present you. She got mad and why dontcha ask for Aya's ecchi pic. What @_@ then he'll think I'm a maniac. Aren't you a maniac already? XDDDD Then she keep calling me P-chan ^^; *tied Leez on the chair and force her to watch yaoi anime*. She replied it's okay to be tied (really? *senyum mesum* :D) but no yaoi except..... @_@ What, those two, really? OMG, you're more perverted than I am. *massive sweatdrops*
Shun's was pissed off with the "Oh, you look like Vaness!" :DDD expression on his acquintances. It's your fault-lah! Don't cut it lah, it'll look beautiful on....*gets massive stones throwned at her* ;DDD
Pak James emailed his Christmas wish, and told me that his wife is going to gave birth to a baby boy in April. ( ^^)/ *cheers* Congrats, sir! He still got one year to go in Australia. OMG, *tepuk jidat* I forgot to email Pak Rudy T_T and Bu Yulia. Those three are my favourite lecturers.

The morning went out as usual. I did a major clean-up to my room. Everything was mopped and moved. Now my bed is nearer to the windows. Although, I did find a lizard near the window and it won't go out of my room. ^^; While Lidya watch Gravitation in Meme's computer. Lidya told us that she called the church and the Christmas Eve service is going to be held at 6 PM. My feet is aching and I'm kinda hesitate to go but finally I can force myself to go.
It was raining a lil bit so I have to bring an umbrella. Before we go, we took some pics. OMG, I forgot to buttoned my shirt!! Let's see later if the pic was not too vulgar I'll posted here XDDD
We went to church taking another becak. The driver look was so scary but when he started to speak the tone was actually very nice....^^; and it's only 6000 so we don't have to bargain with the driver. And instead when he took us home dat nite we gave him some extra money.
At the church many funny things happen. First, there's a boy in front of us who keep staring at us and try to draw our attention. Later he made me (and Meme) think of one word, shota! XDDDD Only the word guys, not the rest *death glances to fellow IYF-ers*
I got a lil panicked when we enter the church. They gave us candles *sweatdrops* that means we have to light it up, rite? OMG! Fire!
Second, I told Lidya and Meme, "How about me giving that kiddo a nice evil grin?" XDDD I have this vampire smile if I try to be meanie XDDD They all nodded.
And later (third) we heard there's food for the congregation *clap hands* ( ^^)/ *cheers* Totally went to church for the wrong reason. XDDD When we got out, 2003 calendar was handed. Lidya embarassed us by asking, is this free? Then the lady told us yes, but one per a family. Yes, yes, we're a family, nod Lidya ^^; You liar!
There's nasi kuning (but because we sat in the front, we got to the table late, and the food was almost dissapearing!), fruits, jajanan pasar, and puddings.
When we got home, we took some pic again, this time, I wear Santa's hat, that Conie bought for me. Then, I really wanted to make a Christmas Layout, so I made it until half past 12 in Meme's. At around 11 Pierre called, gomen ne Pierre, I yelled at you. It's that I don't like to be bothered when I'm concentrating on something! I worked on the table version in the Dreamweaver first, then I tried to do the tableless version. It worked fine in Opera and Mozilla, but in IE, it don't. Meme's IE was 5.5, so I'm positive, it'll look fine in IE 6.0 *thumbs down for IE*
Till later that night, SMS came from everyone, including Delin *hugs* sankyu dear! but k4r-kun's was the first to arrive =p Most of them send Nokia type SMS T_T so basically I can only read the words.
Let's nostalgic a bit about my Christmas back home. Home visits are rare during Christmas, it was the New Year that we got guests. But the shops, stores, and plaza usually decorated at Christmas time. My mum started decorating the Christmas tree at November ^^; Once she even wrapped some Christmas gifts for us. We don't have any gift tradition so that was kinda surprise. When we're small, santa use to come to our house but I was always scared of Santa ^^;
No tradition on going to the church too. The one that always went to the church is my Mum. Dad, me, and Angki picks her up ^^; Feeling like an atheist back home. I started to go to church regularly in Surabaya.
There's also this endless Christmas services we have to attend to. From the school, neighboorhood, and everything else. Fortunately, I stop dancing in Elementary School so I don't have to attend some (saw no connection? Well, I danced at some of the services, so I have to attend services that includes me and my group show). At Christmas, we usually sat at home watching TV like always, but I really like Christmas TV shows.
It's not until those last Christmases that my friends started the new tradition coming to my place at Christmas. They're awfully tired at the last one and quite bored drinking sodas so they went, "Ephi, water pls!" XDDD
We have to have new clothes too. Usually mum bought it along with our New Year clothes. Before Ambon Plaza was established we usually went to Citra Department Store, it was so comfy there. But after AmPlaz arrive, we shopped there, because most of the clothes there are nicer, although it's not really comfy. Or we went to Lidya's uncle shop (I don't know they're Lidya's family until I got here) it's like a boutique. Expensive stuff but it lasts long. Once I saw this really nice shoe there but I hang on and went to someplace else. When I went back there, it was gone T_T I shopped with my dad and bro. XDDD My dad never looses his patience while with us. But mum always do, especially when Angki comes along. Angki usually bought lots of items and shopped longer ^^;
What else? Nothing in mind. New Year's is better to tell.
