Welcoming my EOS (A Dream Come True)

noreply@blogger.com (erfelinda noorkhaista) — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 15:47:00 +0000

I've dreamed of having a DSLR camera for years and 6 Februari 2012, at last I can make my dream come true. Keep on dreaming, praying and of course trying, one day, your dream will come true too. Don't be afraid to dream, anything, even to travel around the world and find love, values and happiness.

And these are my first photos taken from my Canon EOS.

So Many Things To Share

noreply@blogger.com (erfelinda noorkhaista) — Sun, 26 Jun 2011 12:29:00 +0000

I don't know where to start
I'll just start from what just runs in my mind, hihi..

Well, it's been a while since I post my last post, hehe,it's not because there's nothing to write, but it's because there are plenty and I haven't got the chance to write it down, padahal dah pengeeeeeen banget. So it's been about a month since my last post and there are so many things to tell.

24 February 2011 - I GRADUATED

Alhamdulillah, aku wisuda :D it was a great moment, dari mulai persiapan sampe hari-H. hihi, padahal udah ngerasa paling santai dari persiapan temen-temen yang lain, tapi tetep aja ngerasa heboh. hehe.
Ayah, mama, Dhimas, Uval came. and it was our first official photo shoot on a photo studio, seriously, it was our first time, hihi, daaaaaan hasilnya, tadaaaa

hari itu juga, kita rame2 ngerayain ultahnya Tiksa, Maya, Ramon, Umi, Tisna, what a day :) ada gathering Rangers Family, seneng deh, semua jadi akrab, jadi saling kenal :) thanks to everyone, temen-temen SP2MP, mba kos, hihi mba karin sama emak sampe kruling-kruling nyariin aku karna handphoneku ketinggalan di mobil bundo, anak-anak IMAK, semua deh, heboh banget, seru, seneng :D

24 Maret 2011 - I SIGN THE CONTRACT
Inget banget waktu itu, tanggal 26 Februari 2011, aku Ayah, Mama, Dhimas, Uval lagi jalan-jalan ke Bringharjo, tiba-tiba ada telfon dari TAM, Toyota Astra Motor, ngasih kabar kalo aku lolos ke tahap seleksi berikutnya, interview users dan harus ke Jakarta. Wah galau waktu itu, galau dan bimbang. Hehe, how can't I, at that time I really want to continue my study but at the other side I've achieve that far. Alhamdulillahnya masih ada ayah mama yang ngebimbing dan bantu untuk memutuskan. Ayah sampe nghangusin tiket pulang, mama sama uval pulang tanpa Ayah.
So, I stay in Jakarta for about two weeks with daddy, dan alhamdulillah setelah ngelewatin semua tahap seleksi, akhirnya tanda tangan kontrak tanggal 24 Maret 2011, a month after I graduate, alhamdulillah. Daaaan, setelah masuk, I didn't regret it at all, doing all the recruitment steps, bergalau-galau ria,,ternyata justru ngasih aku banyak jalan menuju apa yang aku cita-citakan :D Allah Maha Penyayang memang, and yes, sekarang aku belajar dan bekerja di PT. Toyota Astra Motor :D Alhamdulillah. Jadi, kalo dihitung-hitung udah 3 bulanan aku di TAM, dan ini beberapa foto bareng orang-orang kantor (haha, ternyata pada doyan foto juga)

on our TAM- SAT Theme

29 Mei 2011 - IT'S MY 21 BIRTHDAY
And yes, now I'm 21 :D and I feel even more grateful

A letter for Ayah and Mama

noreply@blogger.com (erfelinda noorkhaista) — Wed, 16 Feb 2011 08:44:00 +0000

Dear ayah dan mama terhebat,

I've been missing you so much lately

I really miss these faces

Sebenernya ista selalu kangen, yah, ma, tapi ngga tau kenapa akhir-akhir ini ista kangen banget, kangeeeeen banget, kayak tiba-tiba semua perasaan meluap, tumpah.
Walaupun ista tau kabar ayah, mama dan dek uval baik, tapi akhir-akhir ini ista jadi semakin kangen, semakin rindu doing things together, missing all the great times at home, doing silly and fun things with uval, laughing and telling stories about what happened each day, watching movies till fast asleep and have great meals every breakfast, lunch and dinner together with my beloved ones at home.
Ista tahu sebentar lagi kita ketemu, bahkan dalam hitungan hari, insyaAllah kita ketemu lagi, tapi ngga tahu kenapa perasaan ini sebegitu dalemnya, setiap habis wudhu, habis sholat, yang kebayang wajah ayah, mama, uval sama dhimas.

I've been a very lucky girl, born in a great family who always gives great love and support.
I have a great dad, yang selalu menginspirasi hidup ista, yang jadi pedoman dan pengayom setiap langkah dan keputusan yang ista ambil, yang selalu bijak dan mesra dalam membimbing kami semua, mama, ista, dhimas dan uval. Yang selalu ada dan selalu bangga, selalu bisa membesarkan hati anak-anaknya. Ayah, ista kangen, walaupun beberapa hari yang lalu kita ngobrol lamaaa, dari hal-hal konyol sampe hal-hal penting buat masa depan ista, ista kangen ngeliat muka dan ekspresi ayah.
I am very lucky having a loving caring mom, the greatest mom in the whole world. Mama yang ngga pernah berhenti ngasih kasih sayang, super peduli sampe hal detail dan remeh temeh anak-anak dan suaminya. Mama yang kuat, yang menginspirasi ista buat jadi wanita sabar, kuat, smart dan hebat tapi tetep low profile, caring dan lovable. Mama yang selalu tulus ngingetin hal-hal yang sering ista lupa, yang ngga pernah capek dengerin setiap cerita anaknya. I Love you so much Ma.

Ayah Mamaku yang ngga pernah bosen nanya, Apa kabar, gimana harinya dan pertanyaan-pertanyaan biasa lainnya, yang bukan sekedar basa basi, but it's because you really wanna know how is me and all stuff and things that I've had and done.

Ayah Mama made me tough, made me wiser, made me appreciate what family and love means in life.
Ayah Mama teaches me love and loving others, teaches me tolerance, teaches me to have an open mind, teaches me to be better each day.

Alhamdulillah Ista Dhimas disini baik, yah, ma.

I know that every day you are worried about us, I know it's hard, letting your son and daughter leaving home, going miles away from home to reach what they want. We always try not to let you down, always try our best to reach whats the best for us.

Thank you for helping us struggle life

even life is hard, terjal, penuh lika-liku

Thank you for guiding us to find the best way to reach our dreams

to guide us when we are lost

help us find solutions from every problems.

Thank you for believing us

Alhamdulillah, banyak yang menjaga Ista dan Dhimas disini, ada mbak-mbak kos yang selalu bisa di andalkan, mereka udah kayak kakak Ista sendiri, yah ma. Mbak Karin, Mbak Laras, Mbak Andin, Mbak Devi, teman-teman Ista di Kampus, Rangers, Amel, Tiksa, Fafa, Wenny, Three Masketeers, Dony, Andri, Ramon, temen-temen di organisasi, Dayat, Pritta, Fajar, Ruli, Septian, Tika, Vika, Maya, Shifa, Dila, Kao, Tya, Devi, semua temen-temen ista, we take care of each others, this is our family to Yah, Ma, mereka bahkan ikut ngbantu Dhimas, jadi temen maen Dhimas juga. We do have great times together here, but it will be greater if we can spend time together, again. We will soon, right?

Ayah Mama Uval take care of each other, Ista tahu, doa selalu di panjatkan untuk kami semua disini :) kamipun begitu Yah Ma. We Love you so much. I miss you so much.

For our beloved ones,

Love

Erfelinda Noorkhaista, your daughter who misses you so much

Is it that hard being someone helpful?

noreply@blogger.com (erfelinda noorkhaista) — Fri, 11 Feb 2011 02:02:00 +0000

Bekerja dengan banyak orang memang berat. Kita bertemu dengan orang-orang baru, pikiran-pikiran yang berbeda, dengan sifat dan sikap yang berbeda. Perbedaan ini bisa jadi kekuatan tim bisa jadi yang malah ngbuat tim cerai berai. Beberapa orang yang pernah sharing tentang cases kayak gini bilang, biasanya semakin lama kita bekerja sama sama mereka, makin bisa klop. Dulu aku juga berfikiran yang sama, karena memang biasanya gitu, makin lama kita ketemu, makin banyak kegiatan yang kita handel bareng-bareng, justru ngbuat kita makin deket, makin paham satu sama lain, dan berujung persahabatan yang erat. But it doesn't always ends like that ternyata.

Udah beberapa bulan, hmm, hampir satu tahun, aku ketemu orang-orang yang menjadi timku di sebuah kegiatan. Awalnya justru kita sangat klop karena berbekal pemikiran dan keinginan yang sama. Walaupun banyak persamaan, tetap aja ada perbedaan, perbedaan sifat dan sikap, prinsip dan hal-hal detail lainnya. Sibuklah, cuek, ngga peka, males, ngga helpful dan hal-hal detail lainnya. Mungkin memang kecil dan sepele, tapi justru ini yang buat gemes, bikin jengkel kadang-kadang, memang belajar sabar kata salah seorang kakak yang pernah masuk ke dalam kelompok kegiatan yang mirip sama yang aku jalanin.

Dulu, kegiatan yang pernah kita buat juga sempet mentok, ngga ada semangatnya. Tapi akhirnya jalan dengan baik karena masih ada beberapa orang yang helpful dan terpaksa peduli karena udah disemprot sana sini. Sebel kadang-kadang, sesuatu yang mestinya gampang, malah jadi susah plus ribet cuma gara-gara ngga helpful, males, pengennya dikerjain sama yang lain, dan kebiasaan ngandelin bakal dikerjain sama yang lain. Sebel kadang rasanya, is it that hard being helpful?Mungkin soal sifat, sikap, prinsip dan hal-hal detail lainnya susah untuk disamakan, tapi paling ngga, being helpful will help, jangan ngbuat jadi ribet, itu aja, kalo ngga bisa ngerjain, ya bilang, kalo males, ya sadar diri, jangan malah ngbuat yang udah percaya ngasih amanah nunggu-nunggu, ujung-ujungnya nyalahin di belakang ke orang-orang yang sebenernya ngga tahu duduk permasalahannya apa, ya kalo emang ngga bisa atau males, bilang, biar amanahnya bisa di kerjakan sama yg ngasih amanah atau minta tolong ke yang lain, simple right, tinggal bilang, jangan malah di bikin muter-muter, di bikin super ribet, is it that hard being someone helpful?

Padahal being helpful itu kan bisa ngbantu apa yang kita pengen cepet tercapai, bikin orang-orang disekitar kita juga seneng dan respect. Lebih banyak manfaatnya jadi orang yang helpful ketimbang nyusahin dan ngbuat hal-hal simple jadi ribet. Tinggal bilang kalo ngga bisa, tinggal ngomong. So again, is it that hard?is it that hard being someone helpful?

ketika udah ketemu Mr. Right-nya, udah bukan saatnya lagi bilang

Jadikan aku pacarmu

Kan kubingkai slalu indahmu

Jadikanlah aku pacarmu

Iringilah kisahku

:: Sheila On 7 - J.A.P ::

apalagi minta

:: Astrid - Jadikan Aku yang Kedua ::

Would you really loose someone that you might share your life and share your future with?
I guess no is the answer, ya kan, but the thing is, kita ngga pernah tau, siapa yang bakal jadi temen hidup kita, Jodoh di tangan yang Maha Kuasa, tapi

When you love someone
Just be brave to say
That you want him to be with you
When you hold your love
Don't ever let it go
Or you will loose your chance
To make you dream come true
:: Endah n Rhesa - When You Love Someone ::

I guess that is right, but anyway, everyone has their own choices, and life is full of choices, so choose everything whats the best for your life and your happiness, now and afterlife :D

Cheers everyone

MASTERCHEF

noreply@blogger.com (erfelinda noorkhaista) — Sun, 23 Jan 2011 18:38:00 +0000

Well, sodara-sodara sepertinya udah jadi rahasia umum kalo aku itu SUKA MAKAN dan SUKA NONTON :D food, movies, concert, anything. Nah, kebetulan di kosku, bisa nonton pake TV kabel, jadi bisa nonton STAR World, HBO, NatGeo, TLC dan temen-temen genknya yang lain (wlaupun bukan di kamar sendiri, hihi, berhubung rugi juga kalo ada di kamarku, TVku sunyi, gak ada suaranya, kadang kalo lagi baik hati, keluar suaranya, tapi lebih banyak nggaknya *curhaaat, I'll fix you as soon as possible dear TV). Dari sekian banyak channel yang di offer sama si TV kabel, STAR World jadi salah satu channel kesukaanku, paling sering ditunggu, paling sering di tonton. Di STAR World, kebanyakan tayangannya berupa reality show (tapi lebih seru, looks more real) dan serial. Dari mulai American Idol sampai American's Next Top Model, dari How I Met Your Mother sampai GLEE. Hampir semua tayangannya seru, they really entertain me. These past few weeks, aku lagi seneng banget nongkrongin reality show, namanya :

MASTERCHEF US

dan

Junior MASTERCHEF Australia

MASTERCHEF ini adalah reality show tentang kompetisi untuk menjadi the best Amateur Chef in US and Junior Amateur Chef in Australia. Name that, AMATEUR; kegiatan yang dilakukan atas dasar kesenangan dan bukan untuk memperoleh nafkah (artikata.com). Yap, mereka amateur, they aren't real chef (before they participate the MASTERCHEF), with chef backgrounds, they were all ordinary people, with different jobs that have no relations with cooking and stuff. Isn't that amazing?!They have no chef backgrounds but they could cook extraordinary fabulous stunning foods. Kalo udah nonton acara ini, sekamar yang nonton bisa berdecak-decak kagum, bisa heboh sama hasil masakan para pesertanya, bisa gemes dan mupeng pengen ikut nyobain masakannya. The great things about MASTERCHEF ini :

1. Jadi tahu kalo di luar sana, terutama US sama Aussie yang acaranya aku tonton, being a chef is something huge, you love cooking so do it. Mereka bener-bener nghargain bakat apapun yang dimiliki, ngga cuma pinter ngitung rumus dan hafal pelajaran, but they appreciate everything, even cooking. AWESOME!

2. Bisa geleng-geleng dan salut, karena para pesertanya, bener-bener ngga punya latar belakang sekolah masak apalagi sekolah chef, tapi bener-bener pinter masak dan hasil masakannya bener-bener kayak masakan hasil chef profesional. Bayangin aja, ada yang financial advisor, software engineer sampai construction worker. Walaupun pekerjaan mereka ngga ada hubungannya sama sekali sama dunia masak memasak, tapi kalo liat mereka masak, voila, kereeen, and they create fantastics food. For sure.

3. Kebayang ngga yang masak anak umur 8-12 tahun, dan hasil masakannya kayak masakan sekelas restoran-restoran mahal?

Look how cute they are

Bayangin aja adik kita yang masih SD atau adiknya temen kita yang masih SD de kalo ngga punya adek yang masih SD masak masakan sekelas farah Quin. FANTASTIC! They cooked and bake stunning foods.

Pokoknya, nonton acara ini bikin aku terkagum-kagum, these people drives me crazy. They loved cooking so much dan they can inspire people from what they love. Salut! Mungkin udah saatnya kita nghargain apapun asal baik dan bermanfaat buat kita dan orang banyak, mau itu masak, nari, nulis cerita, nyanyi, apapun itu. Jadi ngga ada lagi de cerita ada orang tua yang bilang "Ngapain kamu jadi koki, jadi (apapun keinginan orang tuanya) aja" :)

EMAIL

noreply@blogger.com (erfelinda noorkhaista) — Sat, 22 Jan 2011 08:59:00 +0000

Dulu, jaman-jamannya jadi anak SMA, SMP apalagi SD, kayaknya jaraaaang banget buka email, bahkan belum punya waktu SD. Sekarang, semenjak aku jadi mahasiswa terlebih karena terpilih jadi salah satu angkatan SP2MP (Sahabat Percepatan Peningkatan Mutu Pendidikan) bareng temen-temen di SP2MP 2010 email jadi salah satu alamat yang musti aku kunjungi tiap kali online, jadi something important to be opened and checked. Dulu jaman-jamannya pertama punya email, namanya yang aneh-aneh, lucu-lucu ngga jelas, dan isinya cuma notification friendster, hehe, sekarang isinya mostly hal-hal penting yang harus segera di bales, atau info-info penting yang kita harus update, bahkan sampe kirim-kirim tugas, LPJ bahkan sampai nyari sponsor. Karena sekarang banyak group, forum, social network, blog, bahkan e-newspaper yang kalo mau daftar, minta alamat email kita buat verifikasi.
Sebenernya aku ngga punya banyak email, tapi tetep ikut ngrasain perkembangannya. Sekarang email penting banget buatku, jadi secara otomatis ada keinginan buat buka tiap hari, entah cuma ng-check email baru yang isinya comment di blog, info baru di milis sampai balasan dari Universitas yang jadi partner Study Visit.
Nah, cerita-cerita soal email ni, kebanyak media advertaising, group, forum, social network, e-newspaper selalu kilat bales emailnya, karena butuh verifikasi kita, tapi menurut pengalamanku, banyak institusi-institusi negeri atau bahkan perusahaan negara yang kalo kita kirimin email lama balesnya, ampe jamuran kali kita ngarep-ngarepnya.
Kejadian kayak gini beda banget kalo ngirim email ke konsultan-konsultan luar negeri bahkan Universitas di luar negeri. mereke kalo bales email super kilat. Bahkan, pernah ni, ngirim email, eh beberapa menit ngga pake hitungan jam , langsung mereka bales. Menyenangkan!
Pernah juga punya pengalaman, mereka bener-bener minta maaf karena lama balas email (padahal cuma ngga di bales 1 hari) karena disana lagi libur, dan belum bisa ngasih keputusan langsung, tapi tetep seneng banget karena langsung dapet jawaban dan tahu musti ngmbil keputusan apa dan nglanjutin langkah kemana, ngga musti nunggu ngga jelas tanpa jawaban apa-apa.Padahal kadang isi emailnya cuma pertanyaan-pertanyaan simple, tapi mereka bener-bener niat buat bales, nyoba ngbantu dan ngjawab apa yang kita butuhin. Pelayanannya bener-bener menyenangkan, kita juga jadi respect karena dapet respon, kan sebel juga kalo email penting yang kirim ngga dapet balesan, padahal dah ngarep-ngarep.
But anyway, ini jadi pelajaran buat kita semua, karena email sekarang fungsinya udah jauh lebih penting, kenapa ngga nyontoh negara-negara dan instistusi-institusi sebelah yang kalo bales cepet, seneng buat semua kan, dan yang terpenting, jelas, jadi, ngga ngarep-ngarep dan bisa mutusin langkah selanjutnya :)

cheers :D

keep on struggling, praying and asking

noreply@blogger.com (erfelinda noorkhaista) — Tue, 11 Jan 2011 14:46:00 +0000

ku tulis impian-impian itu dengan semangat dan penuh harap
bahwa
suatu hari semua itu bisa terwujud
suatu hari aku bisa menceritakan bagaimana rasanya impian-impian itu terwujud
suatu hari aku bisa mencoret satu demi satu impian yang aku tulis dengan semangat dan penuh harap itu dan berkata pada diri sendiri "Alhamdulillah ya Allah, berhasil, aku bisa"

ketika suatu hari impian yang aku tulis tidak tercapai
sedih memang, tapi
aku tau
Allah memintaku lebih sabar, lebih tekun, lebih tangguh
untuk terus mencapai impian-impian itu

bukan Allah tidak mengabulkan
tapi Allah sedang menunjukkan jalan terbaikNya untukku
Allah want me to think brighter, work harder, run faster
karna Allah sudah menyiapkan kekuatan ekstra itu
tinggal ku gunakan dan bersyukur atasNya

ketika suatu hari impian yang aku tulis tak kunjung tercapai
capek mungkin rasanya, berhari-berhari, berminggu-minggu, bahkan butuh bertahun-tahun untuk terus mempertahankan semangat dan kesabaran
aku tahu
ini bentuk rasa cintaNya padaku
memintaku meningkatkan dan mengoptimalkan diri dan ibadahku
memintaku untuk semakin dekat denganNya

kata Ayah,
keep on struggling, keep on praying, keep on asking
Allah akan dengar semua doamu
Allah akan baca semua impian yang kamu tulis dengan semangat dan harapan itu
apapun bahasamu
apapun caramu

ketika jalan untuk bisa mencapainya lebih panjang, lebih sulit, lebih lama
Allah minta kita belajar dari itu
Allah minta kita menjadi lebih sabar dan kuat

percayalah,
meski kadang tanpa sadar kita rasakan dan alami
impian-impian itu akan datang mendekati kita
impian terbaik untuk kita
dunia akhirat

so keep on struggling
keep on praying
keep on asking
for all your dreams :)

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

be tough Ista, for you and people around you

Ruang Cafe :) With mba Laras, mba Karin, mba Andin

*mba Karin was hiding behind her laptop, and mba Andin was busy with her I-pod, hihi :D

it's the last *official class of 2008

noreply@blogger.com (erfelinda noorkhaista) — Fri, 24 Dec 2010 18:40:00 +0000

Yesterday was last day of official class.

Most of us wore batik, which actually a day earlier than we used to wear (because we used to wear batik every Friday, and yesterday was Thursday). It was sad actually, knowing that, maybe, it was our last class together, collecting tasks, doing exercises, have lunch at the Kantin, and laugh to ourselves about what were up to. But, realizing that we've been trough such a great and wonderful time, I was supposed to feel grateful that I met these wonderful people who gave me wonderful experiences and mad me feel sad about ending it. So, after all, it's not an end, but a beginning for all of us to step a new path of life.

noreply@blogger.com (erfelinda noorkhaista) — Wed, 08 Dec 2010 14:04:00 +0000

I taught it would be hard loosing you
well, it wasn't that hard
I think it would be hard forgetting you
well, yeah, I'm not a person that could forget people easily
but, at least it wasn't that dramatic

but still I just don't feel right

...galau banget ya..hahahah...

Yes, It wasn't my luck after all

noreply@blogger.com (erfelinda noorkhaista) — Thu, 04 Nov 2010 05:24:00 +0000

I'm tired of asking
I'm tired of tracking
I'm tired of chasing

well yes, it wasn't my luck

But I believe moving on will be much better then stuck in this kind of situation all the time

Because life turns up and down, just like a wheel

There are times where we'll be on top and can feel free and happy, but we also need to be ready if we are in the bottom and must feel sorrow

Yes, these day lately wasn't my luck and I need to move on if I don't wanna be stuck

There will be time that I can get my luck back and feel free and happy to be on top of my wheel of life again one day

I lost something, but I didn't loose my family, my friends

so why do I need to feel sad, I have more reasons to be happy than to think about sad and bad things that had happen to me

Because sunshine still needs the rain to make a beautiful rainbow, right

Thank you for everyone who supports me and gave their precious love to me

Don't worry, I'll be fine soon, very soon, I even start feeling it :)

I LOVE YOU GUYS

A LOT

I feel Awful :'(

noreply@blogger.com (erfelinda noorkhaista) — Wed, 03 Nov 2010 14:24:00 +0000

I started this day with lots of joy and hopes, hoping today will be one of the day thatb I will feel very happy. Well, yes indeed, I woke with a fresh memories of my dreams, a nice one to remember. Then me and Amel (Bundo) went to Larissa to relax ourselves with a free facial, body and hair treatment with a easy listening and nice music at Larissa as one of the model for the training. I met lovely peoples there from all around east and central Java. Then I have lunch with my wonderful friends, Amel, Fafa and Wenny at a Japanese dining. I really had a good time till that time. But then, it turns to something that makes me feel bad, worried and full of rush for doing uncertain things. I was supposed to be hanging with my friends from the same action plan and have a great karaoke time at Happy Puppy, but instead of doing that fun activities, I have to deal with people, which I never know and met before to finish the whole thing from my online shopping. I spent my whole afternoon texting, calling, searching with everything that needs to be search and find to informations connecting with it. So I skip my karaoke time, I made my boarding house sisters, mba Karin and mba Andin stay in my room and help me finish the business, I delayed Fafa's plan to go home to Wates and other things that made me feel bad about my self. Well, I still feel 'okay' when they were still in my room and talk to each other about many things such as Merapi and the online shopping problems. They were really helpful. But when I went back to my room, alone, I really feel terrible, awful, and that feeling becomes even more stronger since I get a call from my mom, dad and my little brother also when I found out that one of the part time program that I really want to join had closed their open recruitment which I could actually join it, because I miss read it, because I miss read the requirements. Gosh, I feel awful :'(

...................

Yeah, but in the end I really understand that in life, there are good times and bad times, and maybe today wasn't my greatest one, wasn't my luck. Well, I feel much better since I could cry and I could express my feeling with writing it here. Thank you for all your support and help guys :)

TUNA MORNAY

noreply@blogger.com (erfelinda noorkhaista) — Tue, 02 Nov 2010 15:51:00 +0000

I love food, I love eating food, especially my mom's food.

I got a call from my little brother, uval, and he said that mama cooked TUNA MORNAY :D whoohuu, I was so excited, wishing that I was at home right now, eating my mom's tuna mornay together. Because it has been a long time ago since my mom cooked tuna mornay. Mama used to cooked tuna mornay for us on our weekend or if we planned to have a picnic nearby our house or even in a journey to place we haven't been there before. Mama cooked delicious ones. Not only for me, ayah and Dhimas, but also for our friends.

Tuna mornay was one of my favorite food, especially when mom cooked it.

And when I know mama cooked it again, I just miss those time that I use to spend with my family in a place that I really wanna be there one day, again.

It was wierd finding out this morning that my boarding house was dark, even it was 6 a.m. My boarding house was covered with ash, and it smells like people had made a huge party with fireworks last night.

I miss my mom and dad so much
