Saturday, 20 March
At 12:30 p.m. arrived at Red Pepper PI, for my 2nd IJ gath , Vq, Juju, Endah n Dianne were already there. Later more friends coming till we had to move to other bigger tables , I met Moccy-nochi , wished that Sley was there.

Later then some of us moved to MI , and really make some noise there .. Githa dan Moccy picked up their V6’s official calendars. It’s really really a very worthed calendar, right now I am still thinking to order it or not, since I’m a little bit tight for these couple of months. Yes , I still have those credit cards to use .. but I’m still the one who had to pay for it !! Dunno just couldn’t make up my mind .. buy it or not !!
But I ended up buy a last J-Friends package , one CD with 52 remi cards inside. These 13 guys looked so gorgeous in white. I always love this Love Me All Over song !!

Leaving Tre, Ade dan Ira at MI , I had to go home earlier , but too bad , on my home, my friend called , she cancelled the plan to visit my other friend’s place. Then I changed my mind to go straight home , then headed to the supermarket.

At nite another re-run of JSD 2003 , big thanks to Juju !!

Sunday , 21 March
Sunday morning , while listening to “Puzzle”’s intro in V6 A Jack in the Box album , the sweet music at the very beginning of the song , suddenly made me searched my long forgotton classical rows and found Andre Rieu’s “La vie est belle” . let’s think about a light orchrestra for Sunday morning and Jim Brickman’s sweet and warm love in Valentine. Hmmm my Sunday morning with good music …. Then what I need is a good book to read to complete this perfect cozy time .
Opened my bookself , looking for something I haven’t read. Found ‘A Bend in The Road” a Nicholas Sparks’ novel. Seemed I had missed two of his new novels now. Reading only few pages , this is too melancholic, Nicholas Sparks always melancholic .. but now I’m not in the mood for this. Put it down and look for another , and found my Bridget Jones’ Edge of Reason … think about another re-read. Bridget will always lightened up your heart.

I am preparing myself for Pepey’s wedding reception. Who’s next ?? just only me and Ria left now. Hope that we will soon join the club. But I just don’t wanna think about it. Now, I knew why I choose Bridget Jones instead of Nicholas Sparks novel .. coz I’m in Bridget Jones’ mode.
The reason why I love Bridget was , she’s like a mirror to me , only that I don’t have to do the diet. Bridget used to mentioned those self help books she used as a reference in her relationship .. I have and read half of those books she ever mentioned.

Monday , 22 March
Nothing special today , waken up very early by mom , had to take her to the traditional market near to our old house. I just like it , coz I could find all my favorite food I used to eat long long time ago and meet with our old neighbours there. Later taking my parents to my brother’s place … I’m glad it ‘s just only for a couple hours .. then we headed back home and I have more quality times just for myself with REPLAY on my player and reading Bridget Jones .

I was waiting for my REPLAY limited version, not a V6 calendar !!! And they said the limited still not yet released … is it true ?? not yet released ???

Been very very busy in these couple of days, tons of works were stuffed on my desk.
Hmm… since my mind still concentrating in my work .. think that I just write down last weekend’s journal.

Last Saturday, it’s my first time taking busway !! After asking Vq and Juju how to take it, and which halte to stop to get to Vicky’s place. Juju ngirimin by imel “Petunjuk Naek Busway” yang kalo perlu di print out. So , that satudary noon, berangkatlah seorang cewe turis jepang jalan2 ke Benhill naek busway , tapi tidak sampe bawa2 print out “Petunjuk Naek Busway” nya .
The baka me, waktu abis beli ticket nya, kan harus tinggal di masukkan aja kartu ticket itu . Tapi krn dikira spt kartu atm harus ada arahnya , dibolak balik lah kartu itu , padahal sih asal di masukin aja . Lalu harus menekan something untuk membuka pintu nya dan sempat bingung. Baka !!

At Vq’s place , just like last weekend , our little gath , with Juju, Jenn, Ira and Chicha, still full of fun , laughter, histeria, and heavy rain !! This time we watched some Joniz boys and Shinhwa vcds. While, we had our late lunch at Wendy’s , saw Juju’s gantungan HP . It’s so cute. I was thinking to make one like that but off course with different initial.
On Sunday afternoon , after taking my parents home from my brother’s place, I planned to go to Mega Mall. But it was rained. I was worried goin’ to Pluit in such heavy rain like that. But half an hour later , rain stopped then I decided to go. My mom sampai heran, what’s wrong with me, sebegitu niatnya bikin gantungan HP. I made a cute one , initialed M love M. Stands for what ?? my name , off course, it’s initialed with double M. But still, it can be Ming loves Marsa !! oh no , karena yang lebih dulu huruf M yang warna biru daripada yang M yang pink , so harusnya dibaca Marsa loves Ming ^_^

an update
This just crossed my mind lately , watching the conflict here in my office, why is that someone has to be trying so hard showing off to be the one, the numero uno, to be always under the spotlight … if he or she was really has something to be proud of , it’s fine , OK !!! But mostly this kind of people really don’t have anything and to cover up their big nothing , they just blowing and showing off to be the most important person in the world.
I’m just trying to understand , walau bete juga. Biasanya sih memang orang2 yang suka membanggakan diri, justru sebenarnya orang itu tidak punya apa-apa yang bisa dibanggakan. But we live in the world where everyone are unique , so harus banyak banyak ber-toleransi lah. Sometimes people like this , tidak perduli , siapapun yang menghalangi jalan mereka to be numero uno , pasti dilibas. I just asked myself , why ? kenapa semua ingin berada under the spotlight, ditempat utama, yang sebenarnya tidak menjamin will give you happiness . Sementara di pinggir-pinggir masih ada banyak tempat yang luas dan nyaman , you don’t have to be under the spotlight to be SOMEONE . Just being yourself , no need to show off , just do your own good , make people happy and be grateful to what you have now, then you are already someone , and plus you will find happiness within.

when you wish upon a star
make no difference who you are
anything your heart desires
will come to you…

It’s from Ken Hirai’s song in Ken’s Bar album track 11. One of my faves. First, when I bought the CD , I didn’t even realize , till I heard it. “oohh, man this is the song !!” I’ve been looking for this song for years.
For most people ‘wishing upon a star’ is a fairy tale isn’t it ?? Gepetto wished upon a star for a son and he had Pinocchio , that’s one of the most popular. Me, myself , eventhough I was brought up with those Disney’s fairy tales as my first reading . I’m not a kind of believing it. But I’m just a little bit curious .. is that really true , when you had a wish then a star will help you to make it true. I had tried once or twice when I was a kid .. ha..ha.. but nothing happened.

Till one day , years ago.
I was crushing on someone, he is my friend. We used to hang out together for years. But he didn’t seem to know about my feeling. Those days, he’s been away for weeks. His work required him to travel a lot. And I missed him so much. One nite , while sitting alone in my home’s upstairs terrace , the nite was so clear , so many stars could be seen . I was longing for him. When seeing one big star , this just crossing my mind. I made my wish .. I want to see him , I want to be him !! He’s been away too long !! By keep on looking to the big shining star, I repeated my wish.

The day after , was weekend. Me and my friend had a complimentary voucher from a 5 stars hotel. We had one deluxe room for free. Staying in the hotel was very boring. What could you do ? Swim ?? after swimming you got back to your room, doing nothing just watched the mtv and chit chat .. ooohh, we’re so bored.
When having dinner. I called him asking how is he. Do you believe ?? He’s back !! He came back earlier from his schedules , he just arrived home and he didn’t know where to go, he was waiting for friends to call , asking him out. My friend then asked him to pick us up at the hotel and we went for a movie or something .. just get us out from this boring hotel. I was so happy, finally I could meet him !! (^_^)
While we waited for him in the lobby where a quartet was playing live music , and the lady sang this line “when you wish upon a star and your dreams come true.” @_@ My wish fulfilled and at the same time , I listened to the song that really really determined me that wishing upon a star things isn’t just only a fairy tale .. it really happen !! how come for not believing it now !!!

Since then , I kept looking for that song !! so glad that finally I found it in Ken’s Bar CD.

Should I do another try on ‘wishing upon a star’ … so I could meet Marsa … (^_*)
