Chocolate High

I think this song is simply beautiful. Got to have this as my wedding song :)


Yeah yeah yeah yeahhhh
Ooooh, Ooooh
If we make each other happy, then we just can't lose

I don't mean to be decadent
I might sound like a hedonist
But the simplest way I can put it
You become a habit
The more I consume, the more I gotta have it

Ain't no such thing as too much
If you gave me everything it'd never be enough
My black coffee with sugar no cream in the morning
You're my super double caffeine dream yeah

Your precious darkness got me so strung out
Aand lovin' the way that you got me so wide open, my babydoll
Jonesin' and fienin' under my skin
My nerves are screamin' when you're not here
See baby I need ya sugar, you're so delicious

Chorus
There is somethin' about your love
That makes me just want to open up
Your flavor is the sweetest thing in life
I'm addicted to your chocolate high
Cause I want you, and I know that you want me
So let's stay close like we supposed to be
And just get high off our own supply
I'm addicted to your chocolate high


I be trippin' in so many ways if I
Go a single day without a taste of your love
The finest cuisine of today's world
Five stars, oh you're so gourmet girl

I crave you, I want you
Every cell in my body needs you
Tasty like Hershey's and Nestle
You're rich like Godiva boy you just so sexy

(Repeat Chorus)

Your flavor is the sweetest thing in life
And I don't ever want to come down
I'm addicted to your chocolate high
Oh yeahhhhhh

Talking to myself

Why in the world it's just too hard for me to keep these in mind:
Don't use high heels to an outdoor party. Aside from hurting your legs (cos it's unbelievably difficult to walk with heels on a ground), you're also gonna risk your heels to ruin.
And don't use something warm if the party were held in the middle of the day. Sure because it's hot, silly!
Moreover, bear in mind to wear lotion anti-nyamuk. Especially when the party was held next to a small river complete with bunch of trees and tall grass.

Kucing Hilaaaang..


Few days ago, that little creature successfully made all my family members got panic. Chester'd been gone since the night before. Even Mba di rumah pun ikutan panik, nyari2 tu kucing sampe ke gang belakang rumah. She came with disappointment. Chester wasn't around.

As my Dad and I arrived at home, Chester hadn't coming back home. While we're speculating about any chances that Chester might be coming home, there's a blurred sound from the outside, blurred meow.. And there it goes. Tiba2 muncul out of nowhere. Not as usual, tho. Not asking for food with pitchy meow, just sit and meow-ing slowly.

The funny thing about this, was my family's assumption regarding where's Chester had been leaving. My Dad assumed Chester went to play with his girl (if you think cats do not have girl or boy, you got it all wrong mate). Mom thought that someone kidnapped Chester (this, I disagree, I don't think no one would want to keep that silly dirty cat). My sister thought Chester got accident and died (really really relieving, *sighed*). While me, thought Chester forgot his way back home, mengingat how silly he is.

Gosh, my family, a bit weird aren't we? Hahaaa..

Thanks God, until now Chester's still safe at home. Smoga ngga aneh-aneh lagi tu kucing.

Korban Iklan

Berburu the famous, most wanted ice cream nowadays. MAGNUM-WALLS. Temen-temen kantor pada ngidam, while me? Super kepo about it. Setelah jalan kaki ke Riau Junction with zero result, then something popped in my mind. Sepertinya ada pabrik (ato officenya, dunno) somewhere near my office. So off we went to that place, with full of hopes and dreams (ini mau kemanaaa siiih??). Then I saw Walls sign not far from Taman Flexi Dago. Believe it or not, cuma ada satu freezernya walls di depan sebuah WARTEG. Yup, warteg (which is good, coz I finally found another place to go for lunch), kecil pula freezernya, dan isinya hanya ada tu eskrim. ;D

the famous ice cream

Nyamnyamnyam. Waiting for terompet bunyi. Few minutes. Nope. Gak ada. Apalagi terusannya yah, lebih gak ada. No super huge poster. No super special treat. Just.. an ice cream. So far, I can only say, that the MAGNUM was just like many Wall's ice cream. The secret recipe is on its Belgium Chocolate. The vanilla ice cream was so-so.

mouthwatering? no? reallyyy??? ;p

abis deh.. me still want that belgium choco!!

Hello December!


Gosh, time flew too fast, I supposed. The past two weeks I'd been drowning in a so-called busy season at the office. Added to that, some job interview I must attend (which unfortunately another failure I must faced), and a family gathering. The last one, surely is my favorite among those that absorbing my energy.

By the way, in the time I wrote this, I'm a bit upset of something. Nah, not because I didn't get another job that I pursued, -somehow I get used to failures-, but due to something else. Something I rather not to write it down here.

Oh, well, to cut the time, I better start writing.

Before that, lemme greet you a Happy December. Lots of you going on vacation this month, aren't you? Happy vacation for you. And to my friends who gonna tie the knot this month. Hope everything runs well. The D-day and life after that. And to those who still single, guess it's a good start to get mingled. :D

Kampung Melayu ≠ Kampung Rambutan

So here's a story of a sok-ingetan bagus-padahal-pelupa girl. One thing led me to Pondok Kopi on a bright Saturday morning (with lots of moaning and yawning, surely). Decided to go there with a cab, since I have zero clue about the place I intended to visit. Singkatnya, I've made it to Pondok Kopi after tanya sana-sini. Things were wrapped, and it 2 o'clock already. I decided to go home by bus (simply karna takut duitnya ga cukup kalo naek taksi lagi, secara hampir pasti maceeet bukaan sabtu sore di jakarta). Setelah tanya2 sama orang2 how to get to Blok M, I sighed. Haruus ke Kampung Melayu dulu, then ask someone there. Double sighed.

Ah yaa, before I moved on, there's a drama behind I-decided-to-go-home-by-bus thing. Heavy rain was pouring as my business was done, I was having my 1st day period so I was dying to lay my back on the bed, and the perfect part was, my boyfriend texted me that he's gonna sleep for a while. Hmmmppff. I was in the middle of nowhere dan menderitaah, and he's asleep. *to-ta-lly-up-set* Okay, he's sick, I know. Gatau daerah pondok kopi, that, I know it too, his car just got fixed, I know that too. Tapi yaah, namanya lagi es-mo-si. In between pengen marah2 and I've no choice other than haruuus menjelajah sisi lain Jakarta yang sebelumnya belum pernah terjamah sama sekali. Hell yeah, it was no fun at all. Pengen nangis iya banget.

Moving on.. I made it to Kampung Melayu after all. Bersama dua orang teman di tempat yang tadi yang sama-sama pulangnya ke arah Kampung Melayu. Satu orang turun di deket Halim, satu lagi bareng turun di Kampung Melayu. As I get there, a bit confused. "Perasaan dulu pas kesini ga kaya gini deh".

Dan jiwa sok tau gw pun kambuh. Instead of asking which bus is going to Blok M, I told my friend that I changed my mind, and wanted to take a bus which directly goes to Lebak Bulus by toll road. Teman gw yg baru gw kenal itu dengan sabarnya bilang kalo dari Kampung Melayu nggak ada yg langsung ke Lebak Bulus. While me, keep persisting, kalo jurusan itu ada, dulu gw juga pernah naik jurusan itu. "Biar gw cepet sampe" That's all I could think about. Si temen gw ini masih dengan sabar ngadepin gw, "kita liat aja deh ada apa nggak bus nya. Gw temenin cari dulu deh, kalo gw sih angkotnya banyak, santai. Yuk." How sweet she was, wasn't she? Then she pointed her finger to one bus, jurusan Kampung Melayu-Blok M. "Lo mending ke blok m aja deh." Berhubung bus udah depan mata, then I nodded. Last thing she said was, " Eh, lo hati-hati yah." Hehehehe.. Thankies temaan..

As I sit on the bus, still struggling to remember, which bus I took few months ago. And still confused, the terminal was different as I remembered it. Then, voila. I remembered something. Waktu itu gw dari Cikampek mau ke Jakarta dan berenti di.......KAMPUNG RAMBUTAN. Not Kampung Melayu. *toyor kepala sendiri for being super duper silly.

One huge conclusion for me that day. Kampung Melayu is waaaaaaay different from Kampung Rambutan. Noted.

Super-spicy-food-that-makes-you-sweaty

The only thing that made me excited to work today was my team mates and I had a plan to taste a new (for us)eating place near our client's office. Actually I wanted to come to that place since my first assignment few days ago, cause of its eye-catchy name and poster which put on its window (signed by Pak Bondan-Wisata Kuliner). But some said that place is quite expensive, so we're waiting until our payday.

And today's the day :)


The three of us came to this place. Oh, forget to tell you, the restaurant's name is "Ayam Seuhah"(1). It's not a fancy restaurant, using a part of an old building, in the center of Bandung (it's located at Jalan Asia Afrika, not far from zero km), makes me even eager to eat at that place again.
We ordered Ayam Seuhah, and tumis genjer(2).

(see? that poster really does a good ad)

The chicken (I think it's a broiler since it's big) was 'covered' with spicy (I mean, really spicy) sauce and then grilled. And it tasted yummmmmyyyy... I mean, if you're a spicy food lover, then you'll know the feeling as you taste a really hot spicy food, you just can't stop eating though you can feel your tongue almost burn.
Honestly I can be too much objective giving review on tumis genjer, for me it always tastes good. :)

(sorry for blurry pic, I'm too hungry to take a good pic)

Here's my menu:
One piece of breast/leg of ayam seuhah costs IDR 14k
One portion of tumis genjer costs IDR 6k
One portion of rice costs IDR 4k
A glass of hot tea for free
A glass of sweet ice tea for IDR 3k
A small cup of sarikaya costs IDR 3k
*To spend that much on weekdays, is just too much for me :(

Oh, for dessert, you should try its sarikaya. Tastes soft and sweet. Lovely. Quite similar to my mom's made.

But I'll certainly eat there again, to taste the restaurant's fried chicken with sambel terasi. Well, my mouth's watering as I thinking that ayam. Hahaa..



(1) Seuhah is Sundanese, it means an expression of someone upon something he/she ate which was totally hot and spicy (I hope I explain it properly ;p)
(2) Genjer is one of kind of green veggies. My mom said it's good for our digestion.
