Left Behind

-
You know, one of those days, when you feel like being left behind as everyone seems to move on, move forward and having the best times of their lives?

It's only a matter of perspective, really. 
At least that's what I told myself repeatedly most of the time.

Durga Doesn't Have Laundry Problems, and We Shouldn't Either!

The first thing I did when I woke up at 8 am this morning was getting a glass of cold coke from the fridge and finish it. Hahah! No fasting today. This poster promotes that any girl who drink this soda beverage would look this awesome. Even the puppy has that dreamy grin on its face . I hadn't feel too fantastic throughout the day so house chores were done sparsely.The only highlight of the day was me discovering the wonder of human made technology inside a 500 rupiah plastic sachet. EUREKAAA!!! I am the kind of person that let her laundry piled up into a mountain, for not wanting to waste detergent suds and buckets of water just to wash three pieces of clothes everyday. Also, I don't really like doing laundry. I think washing machines are awesome and whoever invented them must be promoted and canonized into sainthood, or at least be given a Nobel prize . Seriously. The last week I had noticed that the small hill in the back porch that is my laundry pile was reaching a re...

Now I remember why I don't really like sahur at 3-4 am. Am too lazy to chew. Had nasi padang too early at 11 pm, the bread toast was shared between me and J. I was still up until half past three this morning, and there are still left over of the toast, so I finished it off. It was just one slice, but it took like five minutes for me to chew and swallow. Tonight I would probably had my sahur as late as 2 am. Later than that I would be too lazy to eat anything. Yeah, it doesn't sound right does it? Me, lazy to eat anything. Haha. I woke up at ten this morning. This is quite early by average. I did the house chores while updating news through plurknation. Internet connection is as slow as ever. And it's a hot hot day. So hot and dry, I resorted to the wonder of olive oil for my parched parched skin. I skipped my hair because I planned to chop it off today. Since I planned to write something about batik, after house chores I kept myself awake for another two hours or so, e-...

Minggu malam kemarin saya bawa bocah jalan karena bosan. Secara harfiah, kami berjalan kaki dari rumah sampai salah satu supermarket lalu pulang lagi. Jalan kakinya bawa termos dan mampir warung beli kopi sachet dan snack, seorang satu. Alun-alun Selatan tidak sepenuh malam Minggu kemarin, tapi masih terlampau ramai untuk kami duduk malas di trotoar sambil ngemil. Asep knalpotnya itu lho. Akhirnya kami berhenti di Plengkung Nirbaya. Duduk di dekat pot tanaman, lalu seruput kopi, minum susu, dan makan snack yang cuma segede jari telunjuk. Monster kecil pingin jalan kaki naik ke atas, tapi saya ogah. Saya malas berhadapan dengan aroma kencing manusia di bagian atas gerbang masuk Benteng Kraton sisi Selatan. Monster kicik bertanya, kenapa sih orang suka pipis sembarangan. Saya juga gak tahu sebabnya selain dari kepepet atau simply malash. Sepulang dari supermarket saya mendadak tersadar, era baru sudah dimulai. Sebuah era di mana saya harus kembali masak makan siang. Jejeeeng! Andala...
