What about a new hair style?

I think it's not considered as a new style since I always like 'long hair' style instead of short, but just want to make it shorter about 10 centimeters than before. I'm not sure the name of the model but will tell the salon to spruce my hair up. Today I'll get home few hours earlier, so have a chance to that salon. It's one of the best in town, but don't know if they can understand what I want for my hair style, just want to try. It's not gonna chance my entire 'look':) haha, don't have a courage to do that. My husband won't allow me either to do that, he said okay for cutting my hair just a bit..

So, next time I'll post my 'hairmophosis' here, hope you'll still recognized me with the new one. As my company make its advertisement on our new cigarette brand 'Changes is needed', i think I'll need that changes too.

So, get back here next week to keep updated:) see you all guys, have a nice weekend.
Get back to you on this new start of the month!!

I believe that you find no changes here, but trust me..I've cut my hour out about 10 centimeters or more...The good news is, my husband followed me on this 'hair cut' day:) Will post his photo with his new haircut if you want to:)..

Thanks to FB

For those who doesn't familiar with this, FB is abbreviation for Facebook. For me, I don't feel very familiar with it either. Just to stay in touch with couple old friends from school or college, which is nearly possible for us to meet each other since they live hundreds or thousands kilometers away. The other reason is, I can call them...some best friends of mine, that's more interesting to me.

Few days ago, one busy afternoon, one of my best friend told me that she had invitation from our friend to be added as his friend at FB. One reason why it sounds great for me is, he had never 'shown up' since his graduation. But the biggest reason is... he was my first boyfriend.

At that time after that, I was FB-walking just to see his profile there. As I thought before, he only put his son's photo as profile picture. It doesn't matter to me, everyone has their rights. From FB, I know that he have had 2 cute kids, 5 years old boy and 2 years old girl. He put some great pics of his family (without himself) there. Bali is a nice place to live I guess. So I gather all my courage to give him a comment on 1 picture of his kids, I said "Like father like son, but also like mother like daughter:)". I said that because his son looks exactly like him, and his daughter looks as cute as her mother. I don't need any reply on that since I was just happy to know that he had already add me as his friend.

Back to couple years ago, in 2002. That was the time when I graduated from university. As I remember, I was always become his 'recycle bin' (in a good meaning) for his relationship with another girl. But as time goes on, we have more than friend-friend feelings, you know what I mean..Short story, few months after that we have a remembrance story together. But that's it. After his return home to Bali, one day he sent me an sms telling that it'll never be the same again. Got no chance to ask for explanation, even after he returned back. Few times that we can see each other after that did not improve our relationship, friendship in this case..

As for now, what is important for me is...we're all have our own life, so what we can maintain is..friendship itself.So, friend...Lets make our friendship fun and meaningful at the same time.
Cheers.

Childhood of mine

People said that childhood is the happiest time of our life, since we don't have to worry about how to earn money, how we can eat and buy things, and how we spend our time. That's a good thinking I guess, but I don't really believe that, until I have a child!:) When I was in primary school, I've never been spoiled by my parents. Just given minimum daily pin money just to buy snacks or candy, so sometimes if I have an eye for a cute pencil case I have to wait for months.
I've always had a thought like this :
How happy we are if we can have our own money and can buy anything we want.

Even now when I can afford to buy things there's still a thought :
How happy we are if we can have enough time to spend that money.

Of course that's only a joke. It's not that I don't have 'time' but it's about having priority on how we spend money. That's just another things we should think as grown up people, not like a little kid.

Lets see...I think many kids out there have more happy times than me. Not much as I remember about my childhood. If I can say in 3 words about my childhood, I would mention this : energetic, sporty, and school minded.

People told me that I was an agile kid, can't stand not to move around.. (at least I know where my daughter got that nature from) haha. I think my mother had done a great job to prepare me breakfast every single day without a missed. You know something, I hate milk since I was a kid, but my mother force me to drink that at least twice a week. She always make decoction of greenpeal and ask me to drink it every morning after breakfast. Very much like tea but different smell. By nature my skin is dark, so I always wish to have fair skin, just a little girl inferiority I guess.

My father took me to the swimming pool almost every week since I was in elementary school, and of course as a kid I was so excited to play and learn how to swim. I was able to swim along the 50 meters distance and compete with my big brother for strength. Once I participated in a 3km sprint for celebrating my country anniversary, and although got no prize to win but I was quite pleased on it.

But all those sport I love to do is less exhausted compare to the school tasks I have to face everyday. In fact, I had achieved first rank on school grades since I was in second grade of elementary school, so it's been a burden for me to defend it. I took lessons on that to help me facing various kind of questions. I think it's not necessary to always achieve the highest rank, the important think is to enjoy our school period and make friends as many as possible. I realize that now...

---------You will be surprised to read my next story below---------
Just want to make sure that my parents have never...ever...read this one:) haha.My late grand father was a smoker, he bought tobacco and rolled his own cigar. Me and my brother were curious on that, so one day when no body at home we were sneaking around to taste it! Of course it makes me cough once I inhale it. But that's not the worst part. I remember few minutes after that someone is coming to our room, so without a thought I throw it away through my window. I don't realize that my bed was sun-dried below that window. Can you imagine what happen next? Because of that, we make stories to our parents that somebody else did it. So coward, isn't it? Viuuhh...We've never talked about that again...me and my brother:) Even he doesn't smoke either, well that's good for you...big brother.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

But there is something I can't talk here since that was too private and improper to mention. That thing I can't talk here is unforgetable bad experience to me. What I want you to know is, I will try my very best... to make my daughter...see only proper things for child to see.

I told you before that my mother had done a great job as a mother for us. I realize that I wish more than that now...I think it's better for moms being not only a mother but also a FRIEND. That was a thing that missed from our mother - daughter relationship. I was not able to tell lots of things (including my first love) to my mother since we were not so closed. This is the 2nd thing that I want my daughter not to experienced. Too much pain and hurt...I think I was still
grateful to have her as my mother. I need to take a deep breathe now, hurt enough just to remember it..

That's all I can 'dig' so far:)
time is to precious to forget..
it's easier to forget..
but forgive is sometimes a separate thing to do.
