Invitations
Remember vaguely waking up at around 7. But fell asleep again, as always. Sleep, I wish humans don't have to sleep. But then again, where would the dreams be?
So, woke up 9.30. This time it was for real. Remembered having to go to campus, a friend of mine wanted to meet us and hand out invitations to her wedding party. So, had my breakfast (thank God someone thought about making Nutela), took a shower, and dressed up. Driver's not around, my father wanted to use the car, so I went by taxi.
Got there at the same time N got there too. Been a long time since I last met him. The last time I met him I took a picture with his cute little adopted sister. The next sentece would be a parade of alphabet, but since I'd decided not to reveal my friend's name, such a thing is unavoidable. A lot of my friends were there at the campus, they are: E, M, C, D, A, N, R, F and L. Too bad not all of 'em were there. Since lectures were finished and we started doing our thesis, it had been hard trying to put our class together. We all missed the old time when we used to go out, all of us, and just hang out at a mall somewhere. Well, Chronos and his metronome, keeping the melodies going. And the melodies of life, they always change.
We chatted, joked, asked bout how we were doing with life and our thesis, asked about the others who couldn't make it (T had to go to work, I was feeling a bit sick, no word on Ar and To), watched the TV as usual (Too bad about Dewi Yul, huh? Did you watch the Amanda reconstruction?), asked D about her wedding preparations (a bit high-strung).
We had lunch at Lembang. Felt like old times. The wind was blowing a bit too strong, the water from the fountain raining in tiny droplets all around us. Went down for some dessert at Sunda Kelapa. Hmmm, batagor doesn't sound much like a dessert huh? More like snack.
Went back to campus, spent some time at the computer lab, and went home at around 3.30. N dropped me off at the train station and went off to pick up his girlfriend.
Spend my time at home surfin' the net, checkin' out and replying some of the e-mails I got today. Played a PlayStation2 game (God Gundam's final combination move was AWESOME!), and watched Secondhand Lions on DVD.
About Secondhand Lions: this movie was a great family movie. A good story, backed up by great actors and actresses (Michael Caine, Robert Duvall, Haley Joel Osment). A heartwarming story about a boy named Walter from a broken home family whose mother wasn't exactly a good mother figure. His mother left him to stay during summer with his two great uncles while she went to Vegas to do God-knows-what. She told him to find out about his great uncles riches and where they stashed 'em. But in the end young Walter found something more valuable than money, gold and diamonds. A great movie indeed, and very entertaining. I couldn't understand why so few people know about this movie and I was really glad I picked this one up when I and my brother went out on a DVD-buying spree 3 weeks ago. For those of you who are right now reading this blog, if you like great family movies, go get this one. You won't be disappointed.
