etc – banyak euy ga inget

a picture paint of thousands word

even best friend would tell a lie

in this cruel cruel world, a braver heart will be needed.

before i became a – proud stay at home:) – mother

i was able to go to the movie and sleep in or stay up as late as i wanted

i was able to read an entire book without interruption.

i had an impeccably clean house. i never stumbled over toys or found chocolate or jam smudges on my furniture and floor.

i never had difficulty finding an outfit that was void of any spit-up or food.

i never suffered from “zoning out” from a lack of sleep. coz when I did sleep – it was all night.

i never cared about the content on television or how many graphic images were shown. i never counted how many inappropriate words were used during a TV program.

i never read the labels on food boxes and cans.

i never cut up someone else’s meat and vegetables for them.

i was able to eat an entire meal without having to share it or have it go cold.

i never had to train someone else to use the bathroom.

i never worried about getting immunization shots or regular check ups.

i never had to hold the hand of a terrified child at the doctors, while they received a needle. i never looked into crying eyes and cried myself.

i never felt so completely helpless when i couldn’t stop the hurt, and wished the hurt on me instead.

i never experienced such joy and happiness over the simple smile of a child.

i never broke down in tears at hearing a baby’s first word or watching the first step that a child took.

i never held a baby throughout an entire day – or night, for the simple reason that i wanted to be close to them.

i never knew a baby could smell so good.

i never knew i could sing or actually remembered words to childhood songs and stories.

i never knew all the “Barney’s gank”

i never realized how fast time really goes.

i never knew that I would want to change the entire path of my life to accommodate a child.

i never knew that something so small could make my life seem so much larger and important.

i never knew that one child would make me so happy that I would want to have another.

i never knew motherhood would mean so much.

her first day school

tuesday, 08.30. gue siapin mental dia ga mau di tinggal di sekolah hari pertama. bibismillahan sepanjang perjalanan ke sekolah segitunya emg, dia blm pernah pisahan even for an hour ma emaknya. khawatir.

ketemu sekolah, hepi weh…, good morning class my name is rara selanjutnya asik, ga nyadar kali gue tengak tengok jendela bisi nyariin.

10.30. bdoa mo pulang, n i see my curly girl running to me, meluk erat banget…

“sama nduk, ibu juga kangen”.

hot chocolate n me

hot chocolate homemade ala gue :
2 sdt cocoa powder van houten + 2 sdt gula pasir + 200 ml fresh milk yang dipanasin :p

kl mo sembari nongkrong, hot chocolatenya dunkin donuts, wedeuh, the best on earth lah. ngemilnya cheese croissant.. hehehe gimana mo langsing ye

liburan

Liburan 5 hari ke singapura.
ini pertama kali gue ngalamin overseas trip, sayang juga kl ga gue tulis, mayan buat temen bacaaan anak2 gue nanti he3.*narsis yeuh

Selasa 27/11/07,
brangkat setelah subuh dari mangga besar ke bandara padahal flight jam 10, coz kita cari jalan yang agak muter ke daerah tangerang krn tol ke bandara lumpuh kebanjiran. Jam 10 brangkat, nyampe jam 12.30 waktu SG. first thing first gue nyari free map, small trip ini tanpa guide, so gue mesti cari jalan2 sendiri ntinya. dapet map judulnya the essential map of singapore – buku kecil ini bener2 essential

Lanjut, cari hotel supreme di kramat lane trs jalan cari makan. Di hotel gue ngalamin hal yang ga asik, nikmatin aja, liburan ko ga di nikmatin, iya kan? lagian terobati lah dari mulai turun pesawat, airport changi kan dinobatin best airport worldwide versinya majalah business traveller uk/europe, jadi bagus bener deh yah ga usah gue gambarin :p. trs kartu gue XL aktip walo cuman bisa sms-an, seneng? jelas, kemungkinan gue kesasar aga kecil krn gue bisa sms-an ma reri yang dah hapal jalannya
Di sono mayoritas non muslim, gue aga susah cari makanan yang halal, ada makanan india, nasi padang, fast food kek mc d, burger king, kfc. tapi yang deket hotel ga banyak pilihan halal selain nasi lemak (kek nasi uduk + macem2 lauk) n makanan india, gue ga doyan makanan india, aneh dan ga enak kl kt gue mah . tapi tehnya mayan, teh manis pk krim. per meal S$6-an, sekitar 36rb.
dari makan kita jalan, nanya2 lah sama orang sana, transportnya pk apa, kmn etc. agak2 katro juga seh, maklum ndeso hehe. Tapi hebatnya SG, sangking teraturnya gue ga butuh waktu banyak buat bingung. semuanya serba tepat, rapi, ngagumin, cool. Selanjutnya ya jalan2 deh.

hari pertama : Raffles place, marina bay, merlion park liat patung singa buntutan ikan tea.

hari kedua : farrel park, mustafa center, trs long but happy trip ke sentosa island.

hari ketiga : bugis road, mustafa center

hari keempat : little india, times bookstore & mag di plaza singapura, borders bookstore di wheelock building

hari kelima : again ke mustafa center, jurong bird park, mlmnya nongkrong di starbuck orchard road nyari sinyal buat internetan.

hari keenam : going home.

Mall favorit gue, mustafa center lengkap kap kap, 24 jam bukanya. secara gue ga begitu doyan jalan2 mall ke mall, apalagi bawa2 si teteh jadi cuman 1 mall itu yang gue kubek. borders di wheelock cool, ngacai liat buku2 sebanyak itu, sayangnya dompet gue ga banyak bawa dollar ), so ngayal aja dulu, lagian keknya lebih murah beli di Amazon ko. info laen tentang singapura liat aja di sini.
dari semuanya hal yang sangat2 gue nikmatin tuh naik MRT, kereta canggih pertama gue, stasiun keren pertama gue, dimana gue banyak ketemu dengan singaporean yang ktnya talk faster, walk faster.

tips.
jalan2 – by foot  – lebih banyak dilakukan di SG daripada naek kendaraan umum, so girls, don’t bring high heels, don’t.
Trs buat Ferdi , gue ga rekomendasiin SG buat honeymoon februari nanti ) gosiiiiiiip ah – hormon belanja lu keknya lebih melonjak dari pada hormon yang ntu )
