getting back

how long has it been? more than 1 week, i think..
just got back from my "short" 1-week trip to surabaya.. it's fun being there. i mean it's been like more than a year or so since i've been there.. it's way better now, with more mals and i was kind of surprised to see an international expo building near the airport. i mean "wowww". we passed by lumpur lapindo, but didn't see the mud coz we're on the way to Trawas and our view to the mud was blocked by the dam that they built to prevent the mud from spreading to other areas..
 
gosh, i want to go there again, i mean, i miss my auntie and grandma T.T how sad huhuhu
so there i met my youngest cousin, he's like 1.5 years-old (born on the 4th september if i'm not mistaken) and the only word he's pronouncing is "ma". so if we ask "who's that?" he always answer "ma" and if we ask "what's ur name" "ma" hahahah sooo cuttee *Mr C's style*
then if we sing the song "row, row, row your boat....." he always does this "rowing" action, as if he's really rowing a boatt.. ohhh darnnn!! i want to see him again *yes, a "he" *
if we ask something like "you want more milk?", if he really really wants it, he'll nod his head real hard and rock his body upward and downwards like he really want it..
well he isn't that cute if he shows no expression.. but if he smiles or laughs,, oh my gosshh, he's soo cute, like i wish he was older.. he's eyes are so attractive in a way..
 
so then i went to galaxy mall (now they have galaxy mall 2, and 3 if i'm not mistaken) then i went to TP (tunjungan plaza) accompanying my auntie there.. then hmmm.. what else.. i guess that's it coz i spent 2 nights in Trawas and i didn't do anything on the second last day of my trip to surabaya.. i mean i was so tired and my auntie needed to go to pasar atom (soo hot there) so we didn't bother going with her and she didn't allow us to go with her so that settles it..
 
i was back wednesday coz it's my sister's bday.. my parents were the one to force me to go back to jakarta on wednesday coz it's her bday.. i wasn't in the mood of going back to jakarta, but rather than my parents being angry, i better obey them.. soo yesterday i worked again in my dad's office, doing taxes (again).. i'm supposed to go to the office today but my head was "swinging back and forth" hahaha so i didn't go.. i was better when i woke up, which was about 9.30 i think..
 
okay then.. i'll continue it maybe tonight or tomorrow..

tax.taxes.taxation

tax.taxes.taxation haha it's a bit complicated why i name this blog "tax.taxes.taxation"
it's actually about what i'm doing lately in my dad's office, filling out tax forms and it turns out that i'm not that careful with the "numbers". sometimes i got mixed up with the 0s like 75000 becomes 75200, mistype..
 
soo i learned that i must be really careful and/or double check my work. and it's not only during exams, i mean i gotta double check every single work because one mistake may cause one to do all over again, and that does not even help. it wastes time!
 
enough with those stuff.
soo i was finally in contact with teachers who taught me in SPH, Miss Connie who taught me in Grade 2, then Ibu Evie who taught my Grade 4.. I'm actually still waiting for a few other teachers who I sent emails to.. many of my teachers have resign from SPH, such as David Skelton is now head of junior school in Cita Hati, Surabaya, Mr Andy is now a principal in a school 3 hours from Toronto, Miss Connie is now teaching in Teacher's College PH..
 
i'm still hoping that they would email me back, but not expecting them to remember me.. i mean i've changed! who does not change!? everyone change.. their appearance, character.. all this changes from time to time..
 
got to thank facebook for meeting me with my old friends from SPH, those who have resigned, those who are now far away, out there, in US, UK, and the world.. i mean i was kind of surprised when i found them in facebook. i was like "is that really him/her?!" hahaha the world is so small, with the internet around..

tralalalala

I'm not exactly happy, but I'm also not sad.. just feeling, as i used to be hahaha -what does that suppose to mean?!-
 
soo am helping in my dad's office -yes, for one full week this week- doing the "taxes forms" right not.. i wasn't able to get connected to the internet these few days in the office, but now, i can finally get the connection. i think something went wrong with the ADSL modem -yess, that's it!-  soo i don't know what happened exactly, but my dad bought wireless router for the office, so i think they're setting the internet along with the router.. i guess that's what happened..
 
soo, now i'm actually looking for a laptop -like i've been doing it for like how many months haha and i haven't bought one since then- it was kinda confusing for me, coz i never bought one myself.. i mean my dad bought one for the family like years and years ago and the laptop is now starting to annoy us -often crashes- i'm thinking of lenovo.. yes, i'm looking for a not-that-expensive laptop.. i mean i'm only gonna use it for like -how many months, is it?!- until august.. soo 4 to 5 months..
so, i've got the deal with my mom.. coz she's also looking for a laptop of her own.. soo i'm gonna pay it first then she'll pay me aroud 50% or 70% or so of the price coz i'm gonna use it too.. then by august, she'll probably gonna pay me the rest of the money coz i'm not going to use it anymore -gonna got a laptop from UPH!-
 
i was actually thinking of toshiba satellite or porstege but i'm not sure about the price, i mean it's kinda too expensive for me.. probably lenovo or acer has the best deal for me.. but i'm not gonna choose acer coz i heard it's not that good -somehow, i think the service or something like that- sooo lenovo it is, but not sure which series it's gonna be..
 
i'm also thinking of sony vaio, but again, the price haha
alrite.. getting back to work now.. tha2

another day

in my dad's office, helping out, and am waiting for the computer to install the driver for nokia modem.. kinda complicated but it'll manage..
friends kept on asking me "where is the yearbook?" "where is the yearbook" and all i can say is that "it's done,  it'll be sent soon to your home" and again "can you send it here,  to me?" i was like "i've given the addresses to which the yearbook will be sent, the address you wrote on the data sheet"
some asked "is it good?", all i can say is that "well i'm satisfied with the result, i mean the graphic is really good" then they'll say "okay then, sure it's good then.."
it kinda annoys me sometimes, but then i'm the yearbook committee, what do you expect!?
every time i log in to my msn, there is always one or two people asking me about yearbook.
 
at least i will not be fussed anymore about the yearbook when it's released, like in the next few days or so, hopefully..
i can't wait to start university, i mean rather than spending about half a year -is it?- doing something -work- in my dad's office.. i mean not really my interest. i'd rather work in a hospital, to know the system..
alrite.. gotta get back to work haha

just so-so

Okay, so now I've made a products site, dykawcollection.multiply.com. You might see there that it's kind of like a catalogue of products that you can order. So it's a compilation of self-ordered bags, mugs, t-shirts, pins, keychains (pictures are coming up) and emm CD labels.

The prices are affordable, for sure, because I'm a student myself. I hope that you might try to buy one or two items and try to use it or do something with it then buy again. You can probably refer me to someone else, who knows..?!

In case my art bio friends read this, I just want to say that it's still an idea -of a reunion in 2012-. It might happen if you all agree, or it might not. I don't know why, but I kept on saying this on and on and on. Maybe it's the excitement haha.

Anyways, yesterday, I watched Trans TV if I'm not mistaken and they had this news of this ENTEROBACTER virus (I think that was the name), which it was believed to have infected many infants and children. I was kind of shocked because this virus came from milk powder sold in many stores -or supermarkets- in Indonesia. The reporter actually said that it came from many local milk powder products and -might be- in some imported milk powder as well. Woww, I just couldn't believe it. I mean now, infants and children are in danger since they are very young. Especially the fact that -as you all know- Indonesia's economy is not that good, proven by many unemployments and those living under USD 1 a day. It's like hellooo, does anyone care about them?! I feel sorry for them, especially their babies or kids, because it's not their choice to experience the nature they live in and the truth that they might be infected with this dangerous virus -or maybe other diseases and viruses-.

I just hope that someone -or some organization or associations- will someday help these kids into a better life. I know that even though the world is in chaos, each and every one of us has the heart to help, the heart to give, the heart to serve them.

May the Lord be with you all..

i miss..

everyone. my friends especially arts and bios..
almost every night before I can actually sleep, I always thought about where each of us are, what they are probably doing and how they are doing.. I know it's kind of exaggerating but it is.
the fun, the laughter, the sadness, the excitement, the "hope that a teacher may be absent", and all that.
to all who came to my bday dinner, thank you very much for the night.

you all made me happy when i actually have problems with my sisters or parents. all of you are actually one of the reasons why i have the enthusiasm to go to school because i had fun with all of you.

well now we aren't in school anymore and the fact that we have graduated high school.

i will -definitely- ponder the moments, can't help laughing at the incident when we fooled mr terry with the "hidden door" hahaha goshh.. i had a great time..

Christy - the "eley"
In Hye - Korean girl
Marsha - (i will always remember you're allergic to coffee and fishes..?)
Natasha - "anime"
Verni - "bio dux"..?

Shalvynne - now a celeb?
Mira - yearbook partner
Johanna - "art & drama dux" and cameraman
