Here We Go, Here We Are!

We went to Mr. Anton’s home, our Coops Program Coordinator, to celebrate his master's degree yesterday. We had lunch together with Coops participants from Universitas Parahiyangan. I think this was a good moment to know each other deeper. And one thing I always like is the end of the party, photo session!


And here we are:
Madi – Anjun – Paink – Iqra – Raelyn – Dika – Putra – Sandy – Dimas
Milly – Dewa – ME – Susan – Amel – Laurent – Cha’ – Sekar – Santi – Stefan – Mei – Melski – Lele
Bagus – Awa – Tati – Veli – Dhila


Well, I hope it’s gonna be a good friendship among us!

Have You Ever Bumped Into Your Ex ?



The one you fell in love with ?  The one who made you the happiest & cried the hardest ? The one that made you feel like you were the most special thing on Earth ? Once you see that person, you either look down on the ground while your bodies pass one another, you look at them straight in the eye with a smile that may seem like you’re OK, or you go up to them and give them a hug you’d never let go.  It’s hard to see that person with someone else.  You start to think that they’re better off without you, while you feel like a fool who can’t move on.  Just a glimpse of that person, your mind is filled with memories you guys share.  From your first date, your first hug, your first kiss, to your last.  Nothing can erase the memories you had with each other.  You simply can’t let go of feelings & emotions towards someone like that.  It takes time.  But, even with time, there will still be a piece of you that loves that person.

This.

Testing The Strong Ones

I’ve always been perceived as strong, but to be honest, I don’t really feel like I am. People think I’m strong because I’ve been to hell and back, all the while having a smile on my face. They don’t see traces of dried tears on my cheek, they’ve never heard a sob escape my lips. They think I’m strong because because I want to be. But the truth is that I’m strong because I have no other choice. Just once, I’d like for someone to hold me and tell me that it’s okay to be weak.

Music Review: Avril Lavigne - Goodbye Lullaby

Watch out people, Avril is in action. Pop rules! After about four years after her last album, The Best Damn Thing, Avril has released her fourth album, Goodbye Lullaby




Things has changed from the latest album of Avril, in addition to the album's songs contain mostly stripped down instruments, such as the piano and acoustic guitar, and now she looks more feminine, rather tend to androgyny, as compared with her performance on Under My Skin that tends to more dark. "I've grown up, so I have to change and try to more feminine," Avril said in a quote in a magazine that I read in the mall last month. 


The album was released on March 2, 2011 contains 14 tracks with bonus tracks Alice which is the soundtrack of the movie Alice In Wonderland, and the main single is What The Hell. You can already download the video on YouTube. The song sounds like Everything Back But You which is on the previous album. This is one of my favorite songs because I like the beat and the lyrics are a little "naughty". 






Another song I like on this album is Push, Smile, and Wish You Were Here. For the last song, the song sounds more mellow, according to the title which tells of the longing for someone. I really like that song because this song really describe what I feel right now, apart from my boyfriend and sometimes I wish he could be here, beside me. 

At least this album could cure how I miss to listen Avril 's song that was already become my inspiration since I was in junior high school. And finally, even Avril was already changed and successfully with the changes. So why do I also don't try to change, and even, try to be more feminine?

Adventurous April!



Guess what? Today is April Fools Day! Yay! Well, I don't think 1 April as the time to bullying people, I prefer to think of how to evaluate a quarter of the year had passed. Yes, first quarter is up this year. And I'm pretty proud to say that so far I've received a lot of new experiences, learned many new things, and many things has changed in me. LOTS OF THINGS. 

This is not a big change. Even if you know me well, it may not be seen directly. I still remain someone who excited, talkative, and always making jokes with lots of laughter. But personally I feel the change. At least this time I was absolutely "clean" which means that I've totally quit to be a smoker and drunker. It felt so glad to feel myself more fragrant without the smell of cigarettes and beer, and I can take a deeper breath when I'm swimming. Another thing that might change is how I'm grow up, think with maturation, can control my money better so I can save money for my travel plans to Bali and Raja Ampat, even to be able to watch the International Java Jazz Festival next year. Anything else? Oh yeah, I've got a scholarship from my university!


This year also seems like I become little more introverted person. I was previously often spend time to hang on at the mall, but lately I prefer to stay at home. Reading books, watching movies, writing, anything. I also study to improve my English, I even try to learn French this year. Okay, I don't intend to withdraw from the people around me, I just try to spend my time with something more useful so when I graduate from college I'll have more skills and experiences that could be really important when I work in the future. 


But hey, even if I changed, but I'm still a Jenny. Jenny who is excited and weird girl, and like to try new things. Thit is why I'm very exciting to join a sport tournament who will be followed by One Vale's project employees. I'll join the football with some of Indians, Negroes, Chinese and New Zealander. This month will also be held Diving Course with international certificates, and I'm very interested to join in order to enjoy the sea view at my vacation to Raja Ampat next year. This will be a fun and new experience! 


At least all the fun things have to be balanced with good quality work. Deadline is so close, and I have to deal with 200 new employees who will participate in training and mining tours. This will be a busy and challenging month, but I will, and I swear I can enjoy it. Be struggle, I believe I can
beat it!
