Ahhhh...still feel a lil bit sleepy and lazy to write. Had to drag my hand to start typing for this particular entry. My birthday this year was great..ermm....perhaps better than last year. Started right after midnite, some text messages came. Read them in the morning, and found out that mom already bought a cake...then went to client site..didn't have much to do except that we'd be having project dinner that evening. After lunch I found some receipts scattered near my laptop, got curious and read them. They were receipts for a cake and some gadgets, I knew instantly that those were for me....but I still kept cool.
Then at around 4 PM, well since I already knew the drill, Mbak Tutut came and gathered us in the room. The cake was for me and Aristo who had his birthday in January but was totally forgotten. We blew out the candles then cut it, then ate it. Then we got our present. Mine was a Sennheiser earphone. Yipppiieeee...something that I wanted all along.... *Thanks guys ;) I tried it on and it was satisfying. Sennheiser rocked!
At around 5.30 PM we went to J.W. Marriot, the dinner was held at Syailendra. I heard that the food there was deliciousssss. Went there with the girls, got caught in the traffic jam near Semanggi. We had to use Sultan Hotel parking to get through to Sudirman. Short story, we arrived there at around 6.30 PM. Our managers with some other colleagues were already there. We ordered drink and started the feast. My appetizer was beef and pork in a combination of black pepper and BBQ sauce ;p Hmmm...yummyyy.....then I tried some fried rice, sambals, fish, and pak choy on a plate. After that, noodles with lots of vegetables, shrimp, fish meatball in oxtail soup.....hmmmm...yummy. The food was really good. My fourth plate was fettuccine with some broccoli covered in tomato sauce. But the pasta wasn't as good as the other food. I already felt a bit full so I canceled my second plate of fried rice. Next was chicken and beef satay...which was also delicious...and for dessert I had chocolate cake and two scoops of chocolate ice cream.... *I still drooled a bit if I remembered those foods... lolzzz

To my surprise, I had my second birthday cake that evening. After we finished our war with the foods, two waiters came. One playing a guitar, the other brought a cake in heart shape. They sing Happy Birthday and suddenly I was becoming the center of attention. Not for long luckily....I blew out the candle (again), cut the cake in pieces and gave them to my managers and colleague. It was such a blast.
Went home with a full stomach and slept tight that nite. Went to work the next day using Karen. It was a lot more comfortable, I didn't have to worry about rain and the parking fee was not too expensive. Had a lunch with univ friends that I hadn't met in a longgggg time. Not exactly a lunch, since we only ate ice cream. It was the very first time I went to Grand Indonesia *norak mode on... lolzzz. I met another friend there who worked at the same company with the girls I had lunch with. Grand Indonesia was big and offered a different (though relatively the same) ambience...the food court had lot of windows with good view. The Gramedia there used touch screen and had two floors space. Too bad the book I was looking for was already out of stock. Went back to the office after took a quick wandering time. Had a monthly project dinner that evening. A senior executive was joining us so it's quite special. We ate at Grand Duck King, Grand Indonesia....Wow...I went there two times in one day,quite a record for first visit(s)...;p. The food was great as well. I like the shrimp very much. Hmmmmm yummmyy...We were so full that we couldn't finish the last main course...a big crab covered in I-don't-know-what-but-delicious sauce. Some leftover were taken back home.
Yesterday...again nothing much to do. I was just waiting for the evening since we'd be going to Strawberry cafe. Went there at 7 sth PM, the road was clear and when I was at Tomang, Ronald called and told me that they're waiting for Vonny. So I drove to their place and waited for Vonny there. Vonny came at around 8 PM, we went to Strawberry cafe and had dinner. The main attraction at Strawberry cafe was the games it provided. Lots of games can be played there. We tried the balancing game and the person who lost would get a punishment from all of the other players. The others would user baby powder to leave a mark on that person. It was very fun and I managed to get my face clean....;p Yeahhhhh... lolzz
Today was also good, though I felt sleepy. Can't wait for the weekend to arrive, luckily it'd be only in a couple of hours....ermm..minutes to be exact (from normal working hours) for the weekend to enter the stage. Hope this weekend will close a great (birthday) week with amazing things... :D As for this moment, I've been listening to Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - Your Guardian Angel over and over again. Thanks to particular someone whom I often chat with lately. She introduced me to this song and I liked it instantly. The guitar, mellow melody and soft voice really caught my attention. *not to mention that it's also my kind of genre... ;p
Well to close this post, here's it...
Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - Your Guardian Angel
When I see your smile
Tears roll down my face I can't replace
And now that I'm strong I have figured out
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul
And I know I'll find deep inside me I can be the one
I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven
It's ok, it's ok, it's okaayyy.
And Seasons are changing
And waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you I'll be the one
I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven
Cuz you're my, you're my, my-ay-ay,
My true love, my whole heart
Please don't throw that away
Cuz I'm here for you
Please don't walk away and,
Please tell me you'll stay, woah stay woah
Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know I'll be ok
Though my skies are turning gray
I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven
I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven
