A R U M

Are you really post this more than a month later?

Hi ...

It's been a month after part 1 of this post ... like seriously, I forgot ... I forgot I have part 2 of thissssss!! I am failed, I failed ... I almost can't remember clearly what happen that day. But, alright ... I'll settle myself.

Like in the last time, we had a sleepover at Rendy's house. We came to Warung Sombar first before heading to Rendy's to have dinner and say goodbye to friends who'll not staying in that sleepover.



So, after that, we're heading to Rendy's. As I said in last post, that we had a challenge which is in Rendy's youtube channel, obviously so you can check it out, if you want ... After that, we just chilling and fall asleep ...

We woke up kinda early, at 6 am I guess ... and we are craving food ... and ice cream ... You know, there's a new ice cream brand from Singapore called Aice and it's pretty cheap and has interesting flavour. We just can find gado-gado and batagor that morning, so we bought it.



You know what, early morning is just the best time ever!! No traffic! Rendy's house is in a road that got busy every weekend. The traffic is really mad, like it can goes for 12 hours or so, in front of his house! That's crayyyyyyzeeeeh ... Fresh air ... I love fresh air ... relieved me from deppresion ... the sunlight is just awesome and we just walk to that shop, where we bought gado-gado and batagor. I love it! 



So we ate in Rendy's backyard near his swimming pool and just chilling, chatting, playing with his bunnies, and whatever we want. So, we decided to eat seblak at our usual place and get home after seblak. No, just me who gone home first ... 

Bye ...

Hi ...

I am writing again, in this blog, trying to make an interesting post ... mmm ... yeah ... I always have a big interest in a country called Japan (well, ya, you can see a bunch of manga that I have). In Japan right now is already spring which is mean cherry blossom trees are blooming, sakura leaves everywhere, and obviously picnic under sakura tree is a thing from time to time. So, we, Power Ranger squad, fly to Kyoto, Japan!!

No, this is just my friend Fajar, doing some stories in his insta. This is kinda hillarious so I put it, without permission, I'm sorry. Clearly, it's fake, we still in Bandung. (Sadly ... I want to go to Japan really bad ... can someone from travel agencies sponsored me and my friends? *puppy's eyes) There's an opening event at Landmark Residences in Bandung with theme 'Hanami' and it' looks so beautiful in their pamflet, so we decided to go there. 

I went there after I finished my work, so I take an uber and I smack my fingers into car's door ... it is hurt ... remember my pinched fingers ... yes ... that finger ... again ... and the driver's very talkactive, but I can't answer it so much because my attention is for my frikkin' fingers ... I'm sorry uber driver, not really paid attention to what you've said ...

Entry fee ... Rp 10.000 ... 

Because it's not JFest, so there's no anime thingy things, but they have a lot of food. We bought the most annoying food ever. Kakogori ...




We can't finish it even after five people ate that ... why the hell we bought it though ... it should be for ten people to eat, not five ... 



Decorations of that place is so incredibly pretty. After I post a photo of that sakura tree, my friend asks me 'is that a real sakura?' because it is really looks like a real sakura leaves. they also have a mini stage for guest stars that came from university nearby. And, one of my acquitance won a doorprize for hotel voucher, but what she really wants is the first prize, Instax Camera, so she just gave her hotel voucher to my other friend.
Something that lack in that event is, the place is so small and looks cramped because a lot people really coming and become a sea of people. But overall it's incredibly a great event. It'll better if the comittee makes this kind of event again in a better space.



And we are hungry ... so we fly to Korea to get dinner.




Bye ...

Hi ...

It is 25th of March ... yeah, it is like nearly 2 weeks ago ... Rino invited us, well we called our group, Power Ranger (well, it's consist 2 girls and 3 boys, that's why ...) to attend his 'not really look alike' brother performance. His university's unit have an event called Bunka no Hi, it is a Japanese culture day in ITB, so all the student members of that unit will perform anything related to Japan, like dance cover, drama, band, etc. Rino's brother, Toni, will perform ... dance cover I guess with his friends, and Rino, as you may know, invited us.

Well, I have to work in Saturday, right? And Toni said to Rino that he will perform at 4pm and 8pm, so I should leave my office at 3pm because it's Saturday, Bandung is hella crowded at the weekend and the traffic will go really crazy, so I leave an hour earlier to get there.

Yes, the traffic was mad ...

I meet Rino at registration table, we go in, and we meet Chacha, our friend from my collage days. She comes alone and she said that her friend asked Chaha to watch her group performance. We, of course decided to watch all the performance with her and not long, Fajar and Nurul come to watch together.

We missed it!

We missed Toni's performance which supposed to be at 4pm and suddenly the rundown went to fast and he already perform at 3-something ....

Great ... 

Now, we should wait until 8pm to watch him ...

But, hey, at least we enjoyed all of their performance. Bands ... so many bands. From the very amateur band which is all the members still learn to play and formed not long ago until very professional band that all the members really pro at it. 

Dances. Both traditional and modern are in! Chacha's friend doing some kinda traditional dance.

Chacha's friend performance. She's in very left with red clothes.

The unique one is when there's a voiced manga (?) so, they only show from a screen, a manga with voice and music.

And here it is, Toni and friends' performance. But, Chacha didn't watch Toni and Friends performance, she's gone home with her friend.






And we go home after take a photo with him (just him, not with his entire group).

Bye ...










PS : Hey, if you have line app in Android or iPhone, Chacha make and sell Line Sticker which is SOOOOOOOOOOO CUTEEEEE!! Go check it out! She already makes 2 stickers here and here! Just Rp. 12.000 or less than $1!

PPS : Thanks Fajar for the photos. Help me a lot!

PPPS : I post in random days right know, because I don't know when I'll go busy. Keeping a promise in a random schedules is so hard ... 

PPPPS : One of Toni's friend really look a like Anies Baswedan, former ministry of education and Mayor Candidate of Jakarta, fusion with Ruhut Sitompul, a lawyer. (and I will not share the photo of Toni's friend)

PPPPPS : Too many PS, just ... bye~

Hi ...

This week really full with so many exciting things! I love it! (but, when I posted this, it'll a month later after it really happened ...)

Hello, welcome back, for you who new here and don't know me, pleasure, my name is Arum, formely knows as temporary jobless person while doing part-time unpaid blogging, I write random things with kind of terrible grammar, I hope you find this blog interestin and I hope this blog can cheer you up. SO, let's go!

11 March 2017, it's my friend graduation ceremony! Finally, they're graduating from collage after 4.5 years. Last year, well, 6 months ago, I have my graduation ceremony, and they made me something, so this year, I make this for them.



See that? Yes, a parcel! 

I love food, I love eating, and I love sharing my food with my friends (except when I really hungry or don't have much money, I won't share my food even when they're asking) and the immportant part is, graduation ceremony really makes me hungry, when I had that. So, I give them food!

"Food, the love of every people in the world"


I bought all the supplies a week before the day and I just get the discounted one (I'm sorry, I leaked this, just for your information, I'm not rich yet). Together with my mother, we arrange it, so it'll become beautiful ... I made 7 of them ... I have 7 friends that graduated that day.

I failed to make them beautiful! But, meh, it's alright ...

Brought 7 parcels is hard though. So heavy! But, my friend Albin still have my old unit room's key, so I, at least have a place to stay for a while and in my old unit, I have 3 friends graduated so I can entursted 3 parcels to Albin until I get back from my major building.


Chris come from Jakarta for this day and we meet in my unit room because he has to make flower using baloons and none of us are pro enough to make that baloon thing, so we failed ... sadly ... but he brings another baloons which hasn't blown up yet. Nah, we'll managed!

My major's theme for graduation ceremony is The Great Wall of China!! They have dragon! SO COOL! 

Our insitute graduation ceremony is kinda unique. All the graduates of course has an actual formal ceremony in a hall with rector and the other, but after that formal ceremony, all the graduates will be paraded to their own building with different theme. So each major will produced how to escort the graduates in their own fun way. (oh, I love my English ... terrible)

So, yeah, we're waiting in a 'kinda' hallway to see them get pareded.





Searching for them in a room full of people is really hard ... but, Chris already gave a shark baloon to Rendy (oh, yeah, I forgot to mention their name, it's Rendy and Ara) so, we can find him right away. But, Ara, we lost her ... we don't know where she is!
Nah, we find her, downstairs ... 

They look fabulous though. They make a very special outfit for graduation, although their outfit was covered by balck thingy cape the whole day. But, graduation is a thing, special occasion that should be celebrated. 

Those 2 aren't the only people that I should meet in this occasion. Remember? I made 7 parcels, 4 of them I already met, and I will meet the rest 3 in a different place. Because I we have appointment to take a photo in a studio at 4pm, so I can meet the other 3 a little longer.





Three of them are in different major, like Kakek (well, his name is Rian, but he is the oldest, so we call him Kakek which means 'grandpa'), the big man with glasses, is in Product Design Major, Acong, the little man with glasses, is in Visual Communication Design, and the only girl, Tika, is in Civil Engineering.

We are hungry, so we decided to have a meal at Sushi Tei in Trans Studio Mall, which where we going to take studio photo. There are 12 of us and the only people who order food are me, Chris, and Gema, the other ... just order the cheapest menu ... because they're already eat ...

What I and Chris Ate, we're sharing

Here it is, the studio photo

We have sleepover tonight at Rendy's house. We did a challenge for Rendy's youtube channel which you can see it here. Subscribe to him and write to you later.

Bye ...



PS : Big thanks to Chris and graduation comittee, for all these photo ... I just have my phone camera so ...  thanks ... I'll do saving ...

Hi ...

How's your life going recently? 

Well, I am have a quite busy week, last week, or two weeks before this post, I have an amazing deadline, which is now finished. Thank, God! Of course I have another deadline ... waiting ... from ... the outside ... 

Just stop saying you are busy! I know you're not!

And I pinched my fingers to car's door! My middle finger and my ring finger (?) turns black ... it is scary ... I slept with ice on my fingers the whole night ... I would love to put the picture of it in this post, but it'll be really disgusting (?) I guess. This isn't gore blog, yea knaaa ... and I would not turn this into a gore blog. 

I can't use my right hand properly for a week, ck ... but, you know what? I am a pro! I can use my left hand as my main hand like usual. Yea, kind of ... ups ... I'm not messing up everything, I promise!

My new hobby these past three weeks is listening to really 90's music on Spotify. Whoever made that playlist, four thumbs up for you! I was listening to Celine Dion's It's All Coming Back To Me Now, song while writing this post. Brings back memories ... What a 90's ...

This post is chitty chatty post, It's been awhile, or I think ... ever I made this before? After this post, I'll tell you about my friends graduation ceremony. It's like two or three weeks back by the way ... I really up to date for blog post. *crying in the corner

I really need to stick on my plan but keeping a plan is so hard ... Oh, and my work friend accidentally delete very important file that has no backup, and she asks me to recover that file. I tried and failed, of course, I am not a programmer. And my other work friend keeps telling me to not give up and keep trying. Well, I am trying but he can't do anything ... that's so useless ... my mood really go downhill that time (sigh), I would appreciate if you can do something rather than keep telling people to not give up. But in the end he asks his nephew or someone in his family to fix it. 

Life advice : Don't ever force people something they're not pro about but, you, yourself cannot do anything to it.

Get that?

Ow, ow, ow ...

I found these two ice creams, emmm ... no, I found one, and my aunty gave me one ... which one do you think the best? I haven't tried both of them, but oreo is one of my favourite snacks all the time, so I give it a go ...

The first one, the one which looks like cone is from Wall's ice cream, I believe ... 

And the second one is from Aice, a brand new Singaporean ice cream.

Which one should I try first?
