Ass Back Home

Chinatown CTA track


Helloo there!

It is finally winter break for us who have worked our heart and soul this semester and therefore, it is official that having fun is a legal thing. No more feeling guilty of enjoying ourselves at home or partying so hard every night cos it's HOLIDAY! weeheee~

So three days ago my friends and I took a trip down to Chicago and stayed there for a night before we took off on Monday. It was the most relaxing day I had in Chicago. There was no pressure as to visit as many places as we could like we used to, because we had all the time in the world. There was no car to bring us to places so we took the train. We headed to Chinatown for lunch and it took us a mere hour to get there when usually it takes at most 30 minutes by car. But it was a hell lot of fun! It was all worth it.

The night was well spent in the hotel with deep dish pizza and poker games. My most beloved people were around and there was nothing more I could ask for. It was just that night, the thought of getting on a plane for a straight 21 hours just seem too much. There will be an uncomfortable airplane seat in replacement of the fluffy hotel bed, there will be no space to run about when I had a spacious hotel room. It was dreadful. Why couldn't they make planes more comfortable? Hmm.. I shall get my own jet one day :P 

So it was finally the morning when everyone had to get ready. getting ready together was just so fun! It was like, you weren't the only one who's gonna embark on this never-ending flight and you were not alone going through the hassle of checking-in and security checks. And that if, IF, something bad happened (like how I was left by a plane last year), I knew I was not alone. That was ridiculous, I know, but it was comforting. So then everyone left to the airport. We all thought it was all fine until... ONE OF US WAS NOT ALLOWED TO FLY! 

Panicked. 

It was a frantic moment when everyone was twisting their brains to find the best solution for her and get her home with us. We finally did and she flew home safely! It was all such a relieve. Ha! Reason why travelling together is always the best option. In there, I bid goodbye to bf who was on the other flight to NY while the rest of us were heading to Japan first. See you in 2 weeks!

The whole journey was pretty enjoyable considering sis and I got an upgrade to business class this time round and we pretty much slept the whole journey. And after awhile, the plane finally touched down in Changi International Airport. It's home! Home! Home!
It feels so good to be back home.

I hope everyone is enjoying their break, wherever you might be at right now! Happy Holidays!

Tattoo

So a friend of mine is adding a tattoo on his rib cage. I have always wanted getting a small tattoo myself but my family is against it. And after thinking for years, I guess if I really wanted to, I could wait until I am married and that my future husband approves it. Anyway, back on his tattoo. this kid is a carefree young soul despite him being older than me! And reckless as it sounds, he still has no clue what to be drawn on him while it's just gonna be another 2 weeks more before he is gonna get one. He asked me to help him pick one, something that I think describes him, and that he would follow my advise and won't go on if I don't approve. Little did he know, I am such a fickle minded person! but it's so fun, looking thru pictures, finding ideas. I even feel nervous for him because that thing is going to be permanent. I used to have a friend who had a few tats. Every tattoo was drawn when he got out from a near-death experience. It's a memor

A Cup of Coffee

It is finally winter. The chill from winter wind is unbearable, hands are getting frozen and skin got too dry. Winter. What do you think of when Winter comes? My first thought would be White Christmas. But at this point, white Xmas seems just so far away with the amount of work that serves as the hurdles we have to get past before that Golden Medal of White X'mas can be ours. Winter just marks the end of another year, a time to do another reflection of a zillion things we have done in yet another 365 days. I have done a lot of wrongs, I wasted my time and wonderful things did happen too. It is always a cycle each year that just going to be another memory etched in our minds at the end of the day. At the final run, we'd look back and asked ourselves: is there any regret? A cup of coffee has always been a good companion to do some reflection, to take a break from the hustling buzzing busy-ness of school life. This morning I bought another cup of Hazelnut latte from what

DJAKARTA WAREHOUSE PROJECT 2016

Garuda Stage (Main) Djakarta Warehouse Project 2016 Since it's a lazy midweek and the rain isn't helping me being productive,  let's do a short recap on last week's Asia's major EDM Event: Ismaya Live's DWP. This event is held every year, bringing in top international artists such as Martin Garrix, Alan Walker, DJ Snake and on and on and on.  The Lineup change every year, of course.  This year is my first DWP since I have only been back to Indo for over a year now. A few friends decided to go and they went before so I was like, why not?  DWP sounds like a good idea to spend the long weekend with friends  and let loose!  The stress from adulthood is really building up recently ;( So as someone who has never been to DWP before,  I was honestly pretty worried with the security at first. I mean, this is Indonesia! I been to rave party in the USA, I am naaaht worried with drunkards whatnots, I am worried I might get bombed! D;
