KEEPING MY SANITY

| | |

I believe that many people have reasons why they write in diaries/journals/blogs.:P Hey, I can even list some of those here pretty easy: 1."I just love writing. It's my hobby." 2.I think too much. If I don't do something really constructive and productive about it, I am afraid that my poor head will soon explode!*big evil grin* 3."I write better than I talk, and I don't feel like wasting other people's precious time listening (and waiting impatiently) to my stutterings. That's awfully embarrassing!" 4."Not everybody in the world can always accept brutal honesty. That's what I am truly aware of." 5."I feel that the world is slowly lacking sympathy.:( Still, you know what to do when nobody bothers to at least spend a little time to listen to your problems." 6."I can be my own heroine in my own storybook!";D 7.... ...and the list could go on forever. However, I'd like to sum it all up with my own reason these days: "This is my way of keeping my sanity." ......................... *big evil grin* Yes, people. That's right. I am seriously addicted to writing. This has been my therapy. You may and may not like what I write in here. That is truly up to you. Besides, I am just here to present my point of view. So, welcome to my world. The Author

FIVE THINGS TO BE HAPPY FOR:

10/8/2007

First of all, I'm going to start fasting again on October 10. (I just re-checked my 'monthly cycle' on the calendar.:P) Alright!:D I know it'll be only three days left for me to do so, because Eid will start from the 13th to 14th. Well, that's okay.*shrugs* At least I can still catch up, eventhough just a little.
Second, speaking of Eid holidays, the restaurant will close for a week --- starting on October 10. At last, a long break for me.:) I can do more writings without too much distraction from reality.
Third, Cosmopolitan Indonesia is opening more job vacancies again!:D I'm planning to apply as a reporter or an editor...again. I'm still working on a sampling article right now. Hopefully, I'll get to send it along with my job resume before the long weekend already starts. Well, who knows?*shrugs* Maybe I'll get myself lucky this time.:) Since my old college best friend Pumpkin is the senior fashion editor there, maybe I'll get to see him too. That, if I can really get the job, though.
*giggles*
Fourth, the Eid celebration itself!:D I'm so looking forward to it every year. Since my friend Hani's taking Mary Jo (they've been best friends since our regular "Speak-Out" gatherings long ago!:D) to celebrate Eid with Hani's family in Magelang, Central Java --- Mom's had this idea of (me) inviting Patrick and Andy over for our family lunch this Saturday.:) I know --- like Mary Jo --- they're actually non-Muslims, but it's just for the spirit of (respecting) friendship and pluralism. I swear to you, no 'hidden agendas' here.:P
So I did.:) Patrick still hasn't responded to my message, but I guess it's still the good will that counts. it's okay.
Fifth, I got a call from my best friend Nick.;) Although it was pretty short, it made me smile today.:)
