wrong entertainment

I just moved to a new kosan
I added more stuff than the one I had when I was in college
But still, I don’t bring tivo
So I bought two magazines yesterday
One of them was girlfriend Indonesia
Instead of making me delightful to see full colored pages, this magazine made me think even more for the un-edited stuffs. (Tons of stuffs!) that they had.

Just that
I just hate it when a published magazine can have the same mistakes as my unpublished works.

insensitive indonesian

Boss (B): If Americans come here to see how average Indonesians live, they will be very thankful fo their condition now, about how they live now.

Me (M): Who are average Indonesians?

B: would you look at that food vendors or people who own small restaurants?

M: Oh, you’ll be shocked that they actually have a lot of money. Some of them even could pay for their children college fee abroad or they have big houses in their kampong

B: Well, look like a rich Indonesian talking to me. Just like my girlfriend when she said that it was always too much when I tip people at restaurants

B: So, what do you think as an averagely very fine salary for Indonesian?

M: 5 thousand bucks a month,at least. somebody pretty important in oil and gas company or somebody who has a very popular restaurant kiosks

B: So you think 5,000 bucks a month can get you to study abroad? (with a redden face)

M: Don’t blame me. That’s what happened in Indonesia, they may look filthy, but the have money.

(I really wanna show the boss some pictures of Soto Bangkong pundits or Sate Babi pundits, or even some meatball sellers on the street, and how damn rich they really are!)
I didn’t say all. Just some.

impression

Impression is very important
I spent three days this week to go to gym
To exercise
And practicing my hip hop, swing latin, and yaga-ing move
Also to hear criticism
That I have 70 percent body fat
Upon which I don’t really care
Hihi
Because I am still healthy
I just try to eat more fruit
Because I don’t like veggie
Did I do all of that for impression?
Yes
Did I do all of that for myself?
Absolutedamnlutely.
I am happy doing that
When I am in a dance class
I lose the track of time
Side effect?
Thinner, maybe.
But love the sense of losing track of time even more
Just me. And the dance floor, and…
The instructor, of course.

Impression is very important
Yesterday
I dragged my feet to the haphazard of way-beyond-my-budget hip stores at bundaran senayan
Well, I got lucky eventually
I found a hazy white stripped black patent zara suit
Exactly the suit I had in my mind
Went for 399.900 a piece
Flair investment (for a year ha ha!)
So, I bought the suit
Because the day after I had to go to an important meeting
With a national agency
After all night and day activities
Which are preparing myself for a nice impression
(for the national agent, and for my boss)
I got a meeting cancellation right half an hour before the meeting.
Typical.
So I wore my lavishly new suit
Sitting in a car
With two very important bosses
And a driver
Rode back to the central of Jakarta
At 7.30 a.m
For two and a half hour.
Well, was I upset?
A bit
I bought a new suit, for Moses sake
But I enjoyed having a conversation with them
And I enjoyed my new suit
It was just
So beautiful and firm
And I look instantly sophisticated in that

So, does impression matter?
Yes
But I do that to impress
myself.
