End of Lebaran Holidays

Yupe, it s over now, the longest Lebaran Holiday i ever have.
In 10 years, that numbers reflects how long i have been working after my graduation, this Lebaran Holiday takes too long.

Well, maybe the phrase "longest" holiday is not valid for everyone because during the economic crisis some companies also offered their employee to take all of their leave days during Lebaran Holiday (i think it was 1999 or 2000, gosh i cannt remember).
The reason was, there were companies that "almost" dying or the business at that time was not really hot during that time.
I knew it since the office where my best friend used to work also closed for almost 3 weeks during Lebaran (they can choose a combination of one week before and two weeks after Lebaran or the other way around).

Now, we think economy are already normal but we still got this long holidays for Lebaran. Why? Goverment mentions once that this is necessary to help tourism businnes to recover, since it was damaged by all the terrorism actions in this country lately.
I dont know how effective it was and i dont think there will be study to review it.

i spend these holidays, most of the time with my girlfriend. we had great time, enjoying Jakarta's traffic which we wish to be that easy in the future.
we went to malls, bars, cinema and visit gym several times (the last time was really new for me).
Now, everybody is already back in town. I havent seen the traffic yet, coz we go to the office really early today.

I know that the Lebaran Holidays has reached its end, but i am still not 100% on my speed.
Maybe i am too lazy, maybe i am enjoying being spoiled by my girlfriend during those holidays, maybe because i know within 4 weeks we will have another long holidays and i am not assigned to a project ...and there are still a lot more maybe's that i can write it down, but it s about lunch time, so i'd better stop and have a break!!

Domus

Domus Italian Restaurant @ Jl.Veteran 30

Me and my boyfriend went to this Italian restaurant called Domus, it's located at Jl. Veteran, it was my boyfriend idea that we had dinner there. The place was so cozy, it has a warm colour wall and furnished with old furniture, with a high ceiling above, lightning in there was not so bright, it almost a dim. The food was beautiful though, i had salmon with angel hair pasta and my boyfriend had raviolli with duck meat. We order some house's wine, i don't know what it called, but my guess was some sort of Shiraz. The amazing thing about the place, that the toilet was so so cold, when I entered i almost felt like a different weather, the weather in the ladies toilet felt like Winter. Well, the night went perfect, or is it because I'm with him which made it perfect? (",)

Drama Queen

Recently, I have been a bit of “drama queen”, on Sunday evening when I was being sluggish at home, I have found out that my residency in Australia which my parents bought and which I’ve lived during my study has been rented to my little brother’s friend. I was so annoyed that no one bothered to tell me about it. I couldn’t believe that I might be coming back to Perth to get my passport stamp as first entry, and have to stay at the hotel, when my own place will be occupied by someone else, how ridicules that’s sounds. It took me nearly an hour to calm myself down. I had a cold shower then told myself that everything’s going to be just fine. Is it really?

“Good thing happen to good people”, does this expression always accurate? Or it is just a presumption made by people whom fortunate enough to experience the good thing in life?

First of all, is this phrase means that good thing can’t be happening to not so good people? How can one judge another whether they are good or bad? What is the intensity of being a “Good People”? How can one fall into “Good People” category? Why can’t we just said, if you being good to others – others can do the same to you.

Second of all, what happen if “bad things happen to good people”? Let just say what if one of our dearest friend whom we know is a “good people” had misfortune and lost their car, then will the phrase be re-phrase as “not all good things happen to good people”. Or we simply said it was just one of those days, where one should just accept being mobbed or being robed. We often find ourselves asking why ordinary people, nice friendly neighbors, neither extraordinarily good nor extraordinarily bad, should suddenly have to face the agony of pain and tragedy. It is sad, how the suffering of other can be the happiness of another.

Sometimes there is no reason…

Wicker Park

I watch Wicker Park on Saturday afternoon on DVD, and I was so impressed by Josh Harnett performance. He is such a hottiest! He is tall, dark hair and had a face of “next door neighbor” with a cute dimple. Though, I think the movie was so much like the old “copy cat” movie. It has the same reflection upon envy, love and jealousy. Josh also starring in quiets a view movie, such as Black Hawk Down and Pearl Harbor.
