"kamu tuh flat juga ya ternyata."

"Omar W Kusuma I may never find all the answers. I may never understand why. I may never prove what I know to be true. But I know that I still have to try. If I die tomorrow. I'd be alright because I believe. That after we're gone. The spirit carries on. (Dream theater)

today, no, yesterday around 8ish, I received a phone call from Tendon.
it was goes like this:

tendon: popy, kamu di mana
me: di bangka, kenapa ndon?
tendon: udah denger Omar meninggal?
me: hah? Omar? Omar mana?
tendon: Omar's Coffee
me: hah? hah? apaaaa? kenapa? booong ah.. apaan sih?
tendon: beneran, coba telvon maycle, atau bayu, katanya kecelakaan motor....

I was shocked. Lutut rasanya lemas. Diam. Tak percaya. Trying to deny. Berharap hanya April Mop belaka. Tapi tidak. Berita itu benar adanya. Menyesal kemarin malam tidak mampir ke tempat kamu. But maybe, that's the way it should be.

I just know Omar for quite a while, but we were like clicking in every conversation.
He was a nice host of his place. Always giving me his new drink, apparently I was his guinea pig. But for sure, the double shot espresso plus his special syrup succeed keeping me awake all night long. This past month he always text me and yelled "Pagiiiiiiii," around 7AM, and I used to reply around 10AM or 11AM and said,"Pagiii kakaaaaaaaaaaaa...", lalu dia ngomel-ngomel kalau jam 10-11 itu udah siang. Then starting his preach about "rejeki datangnya pagi-pagi tauuuk.."
Then I started giving him my reasons. He always laugh when I wrote "kakaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa."

We discuss a lot mostly about everything. About coffee, life and why I'm still single.
This I always remember. He said this to me once,"kamu itu terlalu pintar. dan terlihat sangat pintar. laki-laki itu pasti minder. temen kamu di mana-mana. tapi ini asumsi aku ya."

And yes, he made jokes. Kadang-kadang garing juga. The last one, when I was standing, and he was standing next to me, he looked at me and said,"ternyata kamu flat juga ya..." Lantas aku bilang,"kamu pikir aku tivi, flat." But that was hilarious. I keep telling everyone about your joke.

Ah, too many little things I can remember about our conversations. I still can't believe you're really gone. You told me your dreams. And I promise you, next time in Europe, I'll go to Berlin and find the coffee shop you've told me.

I'll miss you. Already.
RIP, kakaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....

Nyaman Villa: The Comfortable One

Do you think you will ever not find your favorite place ever again? Where you always stay at one place every time you visit Bali? A place where every body knows your name? A place where you always have the same breakfast, lunch or dinner? It might be nice to a certain point where you think you need a break. I used to have one villa that keeps me coming back and forth, before I finally find Nyaman Villa. Located in Seminyak, in a secluded small road, you will never think you will find a convinced comfort with an excellent service. Entitled butler will accompany you during check in and show you everything existing in the villa. Trust me, you will fall in love at the first sight.  We were staying at a two bedrooms villa, completed with a private pool that you can jump in at anytime, a living room, a dining table with a fully equipped kitchen and a wonderful bathroom with a bathtub to sooth your tiring day of sightseeing. Oh, not to mention the ipod deck wher...

Nyaman. Itu Saja. Bukan Apa-Apa.

Nyaman. Itu Saja. Bukan lain yang dicari.  Nyaman. Itu Saja. Bukan berlebih yang diminta.  Bahagia saya tidak sama dengan bahagiamu. Bahagia saya adalah rasa nyaman. Saat saya merasa nyaman di suatu tempat, pada suatu hal, dengan seseorang, saya akan bahagia. Nyaman itu mutlak bagi saya. Sama halnya saat kita merasa lebih nyaman saat naik taxi dibandingkan berada di dalam sebuah bis kota. Tapi, apakah nyaman itu bisa dikondisikan? If I say everything is relative, we will never end this discussion. But yeah, let's just agree to disagree.  Nyaman di tempat kerja itu hal yang penting untuk saya. Kalau rasa nyaman itu sudah hilang, sebaiknya tinggalkan. If you feel like staying but you don't feel comfortable, what for? The money? Trust me, it leads you to no where. Show some respect for yourself. Nyaman bersama teman, itu juga penting untuk saya. Why would you bother making friends with plastics if you are not one. Why would dress up to impress if you don...

My girls were blew me away with a day I will never forget!!! I know they are very creative people, but I don’t expect them to be “TOO CREATIVE”, and they all keep saying that they are busy. At first I was a bit devastated that none of my bridesmaid was seemed planning something, but they did it behind my back. (Ladies, I type this with my middle finger). (they added me after the hen party) I wasn’t sure what was going on, but Jaqueline insisted to meet her today at the Senayan City Mall. No clue, no sign, I was just being a good friend cause she said she wanted to tell me something. We ordered drinks, starts chatting…  suddenly I saw my crazy girls Nita, Cumi, Otty, Pitong, Cinta & Lina entering the coffee shop. I was pretty shock and smell something fishy. I can tell from their eyes. (that's me smelling something fishy) Then they pull out 2 big plastic bags and start the magic.  HERE ARE THE FUN ATTIRE ...
