Just Another Manic Monday

This 80's song from The Bangles keep on playing on my head. Why? None other cos today I'm fit into that song. You see, I already prepared my bike last night, lubed the chain and everything. Its been awhile since I ride my bike to work so I was looking forward to. But the hope of enjoyable ride faded when suddenly the drops of water turns into rain, just about when I took my bike out. Judging from the looks of it I guess it will be that long, constant drizzling kinda rain. I had no other choice than driving. It was 6.20 and I knew I'm going to be late. I was thinking I don't have to shower now cos I can always shower in office. That's what I do when I'm cycling to work. So I packed my things and drive...ow look at that....no gas! You think there will be no problem rite? Just go to the gas station and fill 'er up.. Oh no my friend, I need to withdraw money first from ATM. Because taking the car meaning I have to take out at least Rp.50.000. Hmmmpphh that's the least I want to do nowadays. I want to save my money till the last cents!

When I reached HERO for my ATM, the rain already stopped, *sigh*....and what a coincidence that the gas station near there was closed. I needed gas badly and to turn around would be suicide, you know how's the morning traffic in my area!
My other choice was that gas station in Pasar Jum'at, at that time the rain completely stopped already and the street was full of swarming motorcycle..oh god... After a long and frustrating ride I reached office around 9.30, yep more 2 hours! No need to surprise there, cause when you add Monday morning with motorcycle altogether with after-the-rain scene equals disaster.

You think its over? I only need a few minutes after I parked my car to find out. You just cant believe this part..there was no water! Cute eh, I cant shower cos there was no water... Perfect!
I don't know what was wrong, no electricity or something (hello, we live in a digital internet era and we still got problem with electricity?)

I had to wait till about 10.00 until they fixed the water stuff....very nice. Now I just wish there will be a huge rain coming down later on.

We Speak in Different Voices When Fighthing With The Ones We've Loved

I like this song, simply becos the lyric's so powerful yet beautifully crafted in a melodic tunes. We speak in different voices When fighting with the ones we've loved. Indeed, very true.

I miss the part, when we were moving forward now
On our way down
But maybe someday, I'll be something more than love
Just know I'll never tell

And when you're on your way down
through the clouds
And you're waiting for your body's re-entry again

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of

I'm missing parts, now that you've told me everything
On our way down
And I was blessed and I've forgotten how to love
You said you'd never tell

And when you're on your way down
through the clouds
And you're waiting for your body's re-entry again

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of

Not even I will tell,

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
We say these things to know they're real.

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of

We speak in different voices
when fighting with the one's we've loved
We speak in different voices
We speak in different voices

To know they're real. Real. Ill never

Forbidden City, Beijing








Panoramic view using newly acquired photo stitching software. This is the view from the first court yard, inside the Forbidden City, beijing. To be honest I spent only 1 hour in this huge complex. Blame the IDF schedule for that :-D
