You Are a Total Brainiac |
 You’re amazingly brilliant. Some would even say genius. You’re curious, thoughtful, analytical, and confident. You take on difficult subjects because you want to… not because you have to. You’ve got the brains to do anything you want. |
I only wish I know what I want to do! Sigh ….
First and foremost, Happy New Year to you all!!!
Now, if you expect this entry to be a hopeful post for the year 2009, I guess you should stop reading now, hahaha. I’ve tried to make a cheerful post, with lots of hopes and plans that I have for this new year, but … I just couldn’t finish it. Well, for one, it’s probably because I’m not a very optimistic person; and also, I don’t really understand why so many people make a big fuss about New Year. It’s just the time when we have to change our calendar and the time when we have a nice long holiday. (I do love the holiday part though.)
Nevertheless, it feels wrong if I write something else rather than about the new year for my very first post in 2009, so I’m gonna write something about it anyway. If it ends up to be a depressing post … well, I just can’t help it.
What plans do I have for 2009? Well, nothing special really. I’m planning things like I plan them for any other days and I don’t plan much. Too many plans often lead to nothing being done at all. Plus, I’m one of the most indecisive persons in the world, I guess, so having too many plans is just not going to work.
One thing for sure, though, I’m leaving Bali in about 2 weeks, back to my humble hometown. Should I say ‘Yay’? YAY!!! Well, I do feel sad about leaving my work and my friends here, coz’ I love them both. I honestly do, despite one or two things …. But, anyway, being home is going to feel really nice, until I get bored, hahaha. I feel bored really easily, by the way, which is also one of the reasons why long-run planning never works for me.
Hmm, come to think of it, it makes perfect sense … I guess then, my New Year’s hope should be finding something to keep me happy in Bandung, or at least to settle down somewhere.
Wish me luck! :p
I’ve been really bored lately, despite actually busy with work. And being me … rather than spending my time with something useful, I browse Blogthings and do their ‘personality tests’. (Thanks to Tanti who introduced the site to me.)
It’s actually quite entertaining. ><
You Are an Ice Cream Cake |
 Surprising, unique, and high maintenance. You’re one of a kind, and you don’t want anyone to forget it. You’re fun in small doses, but it’s easy for people to overdose on you! |
Hehehe, see … be careful … don’t overdose on me peeps!!
Some changes I would do:
Got this picture from a friend of mine, titled: “Autumn in Germany”.
Looking at the picture makes me miss Madison a lot!!!
There’s a place in Madison (I totally forget the name right now), which looks very similar to the picture above in autumn, although it’s more beautiful, hehehe.
It’s basically a garden, a big one, that is part of the University of Wisconsin – Madison, if I’m not mistaken. The scene is quite similar; you can walk along the road in autumn, and the trees on both sides will be turning their colors. Unlike the trees in the picture that are mostly turning yellow, however, the trees in ’Madison garden’ turn to various colors, some yellow, others red, and some … well, they don’t really turn to another color. So it’s really beautiful, like “a paint box fallen from heaven” (borrowing that expression somewhere).
I also miss the sound that I made when walking on the fallen dry leaves. And then, the winter comes!!
I miss white Christmas ….
I wanna go back ….
PS: Madisonians, if you know the place I’m describing, please remind me of the name and share me the pictures please.
Additional entry:
As peyo pointed out, the name of the place is, apparently: “arboretum”.
** arboretum = a plot of land on which many different trees or shrubs are grown for study or display – www.dictionary.com
This post is far from being important, just a loud statement that: My back hurts!!!
I think I could really use this right now:
A massage at the spa would be perfect, wouldn’t it ….
For those of you who are still an “anti-spa”, you really don’t know what you miss. Go there now, it’s good for your health.
I know I want it now … =(
Sigh ….
