Een Triest Verhaal

Thursday, September 29th, 2005

Vandaag heb ik mijn afscheid genomen van mijn vrienden op ROC Twente. Eerst, voelde ik me niet zo triest, maar toen zag ik mijn vrienden gezichten, voelde ik me een beetje triest. Ze waren zo goed tegen mij. Ik zal dat niet vergeten.

Ik praatte ok met Marian, mijn lerares. Zij zegde tegen mij dat ik nooit Nederlands zou vergeten. Ik moet nog Nederlands gebruiken als ik in Indonesie ben. Daarom geeft zij haar email adres voor mij om haar te emailen. Ik zal dat mischien gebruiken want sommige mensen van de groep vraag als ik een postcard kan sturen.

Haterlijk bedank allemaal. Ik zal nooit jullie vergeten. Jullie zijn altijd in mijn hart. Ik zal ook missen onze besprekingen en meetings. Ik zal jullie een briefje sturen als ik in Indonesie kom aan.

Wedding

Friday, September 23rd, 2005

I just finished the first 3 episodes of another Korean Drama titled Wedding..the serie itself is still ongoing (at least that’s what the review said)…but for me..I like the story so far..hmm..usually I think the Korean dramas always lame at the beginning…but this one is quite different..I didn’t feel bored watching the first episode..actually, I felt intrigue…that’s a good sign..hehehe..

Furthermore..I feel that the characters (the guy and the girl) have a chemistry between them…ooo…it’s like watching Full House all over again..hahaha…I am so happy..hehehe..
I could not wait for the other episodes to be downloaded…:))

Anyway..I like the storyline…it’s about a girl..who is madly in love with a guy..whom..well..you can guess it…ofcourse he loves another girl..a childhood sweetheart. But the Girl doesn’t care whether the Guy loves her or not..as long as he doesn’t hate her. So basically, it’s a story about a one-sided love…hicks..so sad…but I admire the Girl’s enthusiasm. She believes that love will grow eventually..wow….so determined!

One-sided love, Love will grow in time..hmm..sounds familiar.?!?
Anyway..I watched them while I was taking a break from cataloging ‘the things’ for the moving…phewww…I am so tired…moving is hard!! I love my things..I don’t what would I do without them…hicks…

Final Decision

Tuesday, September 20th, 2005

Keputusannya udah dibuat…gue & Agoes bakal balik ke Indonesia akhir November..ga lama setelah Agoes defense PhDnya…

Well..apa boleh buat..prospek kita disini susah banget..terus..keliatannya ‘hati’nya Agoes juga ga disini..

Tapi sedih juga mau ninggalin semua ini..yah..frankly..it hasn’t been easy for me..but all of the luxury I got by living here and by having earnings in euro’s …hehehe…

Sekarang harus mulai pusing lagi mikirin masa depan..making new plans, and saving a lot of money for those rainy days ahead of us…

Yang paling deket…mikirin pindah-pindahan…all of these things…what should I do with them?? Sell them? Give them up? Throw them away? or Pack them up and deliver it to Indonesia?? crazy thoughts…hehehe…

Anyway..I am between sad and happy right now…but I believe…I SHOULD believe..that all of these..are for the best!!!

Chilli Crab

Monday, September 12th, 2005

The story went back on last Saturday…
We were walking at the market, as usual, and suddenly it hit Agoes to go and take a look at the fish market whether they have crabs or not..the full crab that is..
And fortunately they had it that day.

At first I was quite hesitant to buy those crabs since..well..I am a little bit stingy when it comes to doing groceries…as I have already planned all the things that has to be bought…but I couldn’t resist  Agoes and his puppy-eyes…hehehe…[and due to the fact that he's the one who's bringing home the money...hahaha...]…
So, this time I tried to be nice to him, by letting him buy those silly crabs…damn!!!…^^

Anyway..he didn’t get off that easily with those crabs..since his original plan was to cook some marinated-chicken that day , for which I already bought a whole-frosted-chicken as he requested, I threatened him [literally threatened], that he should cook those silly crabs today, or else….^^..[I am a feisty girl, aren't I...hahaha...]…and ofcourse, he did it…:))

So, he was busy in the kitchen that whole Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning…first..he made the chilli crab then he started marinated the chicken and left it the whole night…

The preparation for cooking the chilli crab was…hmm…somewhat annoying…and it took a long time…he used the recipe from a recipe book which we bought the last time we went to Singapore…but the recipe was quite strange I think…anyway..we had to try it…

I remembered it took about one hour or more to prepare for the seasoning…and it cooked for about 30mins or so….and the result was….

…..da..da…..

Modalnya cuman Nori..(ofcourse), terus..hmm..nasi pandan biasa (harusnya kan pake beras korea ato beras Jepang…cuman mahal euy…harap maklum…mahasiswa..:)) )…terus..hmm..untuk isinya wortel ama timun…(tadinya kepikiran mo bikin telor dadar..cuman dasar aja pemalas…hahaha..)…nah..si wortel ama timun ini diiris panjang2, terus dimarinated ama Kikkoman…gampang kan??

Yah bikinnya sih gampang…tinggal taro nasi di atas Nori…(jangan lupa pake bamboe Jepang yang buat bikin Sushi itu yaaa), terus…kalo kemaren sih nasinya sesudah diatur diatas Nori, dikasih kikkoman sedikit, biar ada rasa…udah gitu ditengah2 ditaro deh tuh si wortel ama timun…terus…gulung!!!!…gampang kan???

Kata Agoes sih lumayan…saking senengnya…tadi pagi..si Agoes dibekelin deh Kimbap ke kantor..bikinnya ga sampe 5 menit koq..well..5 menit kali…hahaha…

Tapi, untuk lbh lengkapnya, nih..ada resepnya koq (resep asli yah…bukan resep kreasi sendiri yg diatas..)…enjoy!!! Very Easy!!!!
