Bachelor Awakening
This evening, I decided to take the challenge from Tony. He challenged me to start my own blog. At first, I was worried about my time, I’m not quite sure I have that much time to express myself.
Then again… after I think over and over again…
I DO have the time. Since my wife and that sweet little terrorist named Lala would have been away for the next two months. Bunda Lala is away for a short course, selected as a representative from DIY province. Lala, of course, has to be taken care by a specialist. I AM a specialist, but this month I’m quite occupied with ongoing projects (going home late, leave very early in the morning, etc…) in GMU. Bunda Lala can’t stand having me will be troubled day and night with the little terrorist. So, Lala is sent to Payakumbuh with my sister in law. Huzzah (quoted from Tony), even we never got the chance to go back to Payakumbuh…
Why we called Lala a “terrorist”. It was only a figure of speech, not reflecting any negative attitude or anything bad. It was inspired from the movie drama “Desperate Housewives” late at night (you should watch it sometimes, its addicting… hehehe). There was a couple who had a verrry troubled twins. The husband ALWAYS busy at the office, while his wife always babysitting the twins everyday. When the situation turned around (husband doing the babysitting), he said “honey, we grew up a terrorists…!”.
Okay, back to topic…
Tony and Fadel has the same idea. They recommended that I should write about my day-to-day activity as a “bachelor”. At first, I seems weird, knowing that what I do is known by others. Even horrifying, what if Bunda Lala sees this blog… Arrgh!
Well then…
I decided that I should take this challenge, and take advantage of the positive values. This blog would be a good media to practice my English. Fyi; I will take a TOEFL test somewhere in the late October. When Bunda Lala gets back, I would present her a TOEFL score of 650! (Insya Allah, may I be given the strength, patience and ability to be the best…).
That’s it. The challenge has begun. If you lucky, you will see my posts daily. If not, then I would probably been verry verry busy (or verry verry tired after spending my day at Novotel). Oh one other thing, this blog might only existed for the next 2 months. I cannot see myself in the future having the time to express this long writings, after life gets back to normal. But who knows… may all the good lasts forever, and let other vanished in time…
Oh, the other thing is: this blog will try to hinder my emptiness. So I will not write about Lala, Bunda Lala, or anything that will rise the feeling of loneliness. This blog is about “The Bachelor Returns”…
To get this blog started up and running, I’d like to summarize what happened during the last days…
Day 1 : Having a great Nasi Uduk with great friends! Every hour I spend the night, brings back the feeling of those good old days. Piece by piece, my memories recalled. I recalled how wonderful going out together with friends (male friends). Hmmm… It was a long-long time ago since I hang-out with friends. You should read what Tony wrote about what happened that night in his blog. It’s the first time he mentioned me :D thankyou.
I spend the night by working in the office until midnight, doing software testing :P Everyone in the office keep saying “Jadi bujang nih Pak?” or “Hidup bujang!” or “Besok masih bujang kan? Makan2 lagi dong!”. although completed my work, I was very very sleeeeepy (I’m not used to it. It was long ago when I waken till morning). So for the first time in the history of Gamatechno, I went home at midnight.
Day 2: Started my TOEFL lessons, and confused where to find dinner… Waken up at dawn, back again with TOEFL lessons… not forget to mention, I washed dishes and watered the garden.
Day 3: is tonight! Exercising myself, starts after Maghrib until 20.00, without dinner, only with Naturade GoldTM. After the exercise, I hardly walked or even I’m totally beat. Even in complete fatigue, I still have the strength to write this long, or is this the effect of Naturade Gold(TM) … huzzah! (TM)
