Without Him

I was chatting with my Sonsaengnim via Blackberry Messenger back then, I found a quite shocking realization that I never recognized before.

Ssm: 백화점 가요? (Go to the mal?)

Me: 안가, 아빠 없어! (Not go, Daddy isn't around!) 

Ssm: 슬퍼하지마,그냥 백화점 동생이랑 가, Strabucks 가보자! (Don't be sad, just go with your siblings, try to go to Starbucks too!)

Me: 아빠 없으면, 어딜가든,행복수없어! (If there's no Daddy, wherever I go, I can't be happy!) 

That's true, what I said in the last line, I wasn't really think if I could answered her with that kind of reply. You know, I just found it was so right. Every week I go to the mal with Daddy, I always think I'm happy cause of the outings, cause he allows me to buy bunch of new books, cause he takes me to the cinema, cause he buys me treats that I like. But today, without him besides me and I did exactly the same outing rituals, I felt totally hubbub. And with what I said to my Sonsaengnim before, I realized, it's not about the outing that we do every week that make me happy, but it's because of his existence around me. It's because of him, his smiles, his warmth, his affection that really matter for me all of this time, yet I never realize until this day came. Ha! How fool of me :'( I really wanna hug him tight when he come home next Monday and show how much I love him.

Okay now, it has been while since my last post, how're you doing? I was quite busy with school stuffs and I've been a total slacker, so I didn't touch either my notebook nor computer throughout this week. Instead, I always lied down lazily with bunch of books during my spare-times. Anyway, after a hard time coaxing myself to update this blog today, I finally here to tell about my outing last week.

  

We went to Grand Indonesia

 

    

Pic of my Mum and Dad, do you realize my Mum's new hair?

 

The first place I stepped in was, Kinokuniya Bookstore :P

The books, I bought with my CNY money :)

Dad bought Crocs, a pair for each of his girls :)

 

We also visited Blitz-Megaplex to watch movie

Views of Blitz-Megaplex, which happened to be the biggest cinema in Indonesia

We actually planned to see this movie

 

Until this baby crying in horror, but still Dad already bought the tickets -_-

 

So, we Daddy and Mommy met at Marche Swiss Market, hence Chelsea didn't go with us to watch the movie, she was shopping with Mum instead :)

I took a chance to pick Swiss food, I chose Rosti (kind of potato dish)

The movie ended around 6.30 PM, we went to The Coffee Bean after that :)

 

 My evening beverage before back to home :)

I miss my Daddy so much now, but you all enjoy your weekend! God bless you ^_^

Gram's Birthday and Few Updates

So, I supposed to post this subject since last week, but due to my business I should regretfully postponed this post. My Gram's (my Mum's Mum) birthday was celebrated last Sunday with whole family at Coca Suki Steamboat Restaurant. My Gram is a talkative one, just like another Grams, but I love the way she expresses her affection to me and I like to be cuddled embarrassing. I'm her first grandchild, I spent many days of my childhood at her house, and before I born she really hoped for a safe arrival of me (I should have an elder brother but my Mum was miscarried). Thus, I constantly happy to be around her (I even wanted to move to her house, if only I can). My Gram's birthday date always confusing me, she follows Chinese calendar which I have no idea about :-/ But Happy Belated Birthday, Gram!

Entrance of the restaurant

 

My Mum's elder brother already booked a VIP room

The room with 15 people capacity, my family arrived first

 

Never forget to take a pic :-/

 

And finally the room became so crowded after everybody arrived

 

My Gram with her children, my Mum is the only daughter and also middle child, my Gong-gong already died since my Mum was only a kid

Me, Gram, and Mum ;)

 

Waiting for the steamboats

Sergio with Fay, do you notice that Fay had half Chinese half Indonesian face? That's because my Mum's elder brother married an Indonesian (Sundanese) woman 

Yeriel, my Mum's younger brother's son

 

Antics? :P

*Picture not mine* Borrowed this book at Library, about Chinese who moved to NYC

9.) Watched The Way Back movie, alone.

10.) Dad always cough lately, I'm afraid, it's because of his bad smoking habit :'(

Baby Brother Turned Seven

Sergio turned 7 last Sunday! Though he's the only son, but he either is the only one who never have a big celebration for his birthday party (Chelsea and me experienced a big celebration of our birthday party for a few times). Usually we just have a small family event for Sergio's birthday. But he got a really oh-made-sisters-jealous present. As he wished before, my Dad bought him a new game console, latest edition of Wii. Oh well, I tried to play it a few times every-time he's sleeping. He tends to have no amiable behavior toward his sisters, he wouldn't share his latest precious treasure with us anyway. Boys! :S

We have too many game consoles at our home, welcome to our family, Wii

Had a wonderful luncheon at XO Suki

 

Birthday guy :)

 

Waiting for our meals

 

Shabu-shabu, I don't like seafood as everybody knew, so I only ate tofu with chicken broth

A tasty dessert, Cocktail Pudding with peaches. I LOVE peach like crazy!

Sergio with his ice-cream cake :)

With Mama :)

 

With his beloved Aunty, Sergio admires Aunty Carenina so much :D~

Left to right, Alfredo, Sergio, and Chelsea :)

 

And me? I was busy, babysitting Justin who visited us to join Sergio's birthday

Justin didn't want to drink his milk, he was so sleepy

Baby Justin is Aunty Carenina's nephew. He's lovable :)

Only out from bedroom to eat the cake muahaha

My baby brother is no longer a baby. Me and him have a quite age gap, 8 years difference. I don't know why, maybe because of that, he respects me more than anyone at our home. He tries to impress my eyes a lot, I don't merely like kids, I'm a loner, so he often get a little difficulties towards me. But I'm the only one who capable to cope with his tantrum, my parents couldn't quite understand his manners. He's a complicated little guy. Even sometimes he's annoying, but that's why we called them kids. They can be nice and annoying at the same time. Though Sergio had complicated personality to handle, but he's a genius (I don't say this because he's my brother). He often easily achieves extraordinary scores in his school without any hard work, he's lazy and play a lot folks! I'm so proud of him, aside from his annoying manners, I love him :) Happy birthday, Sergio! Jie-jie wishes all the best for you.

Oh well, do you remember Irene's blog giveaway? I won folks xD

And do you remember this crystal? I don't know why it turned out so 'short' :S

Anyway, my school started on last Monday. Back to routine! Holiday was over, sobbing :'( I got a slight headache for the first day of school. I was quite sick. But now I'm okay. And I'm still thinking about my story deadline, do I ever tell you that I'm an online author since I was 13?
