We Spent Time Together


For many days, I never hanging out with my daughter Ara, never walking around Court Street and doing sight seen. Winter season was very cold. I couldn't stand outside without wearing winter coat and feeling frozen. It was also hard for Ara to go outside when she felt uncomfortable with her big winter coat. That’s why I stayed at home and played with her in my comfy apartment to watch snowflake fallen from the sky. We felt warm.

Flour power cupcakes
Yesterday was a breezy sunny day. The wind was cold, but the sunlight kept me feel warm. I went to OU-mini farmer's market in OU Howard Park, near the green statue. There were a lot of local vendors. They sold many things such as bakery, cake, pretzel, jellies, and many more. At the first time I just planned to sight seen, until I met the lady who sold flour power cupcakes.  I bought her brownies. When I saw cupcake, I suddenly remembered that I ever read information about these cupcakes in B Magazine. It was made me curious to know how delicious these cupcakes. Because of that, I bought one beautiful cupcake.

The sun was bright. I felt warm enough to sight seen on Court Street. Since several days ago, I wanted to go to Family Dollar, one of department stores in Athens. Then I walked to Family Dollar through Court Street, my favorite spot in Athens. I looked around. There were food trucks that sold many delicious foods including Buritto, Ali Baba, and the new one, that I forget its name. Court Street was very crowd. In the afternoon, restaurants and food cafes were full of people. I tried to recognize some restaurants that I ever read in Athens News. I felt very happy when I remember those restaurants.

Family Dollar is located in E Carpenter Street. It's quit far from Court Street. I was looking for puzzles and some stuff. At that place, I got a nice headband while Ara yelled out loud. She refused to sit on her stroller, then I tried to play with her and to put the headband on her head, but she always threw it away. Furthermore, I grabbed a flip phone toy. It was works. She sat and played with the toy.

I had a chance to choose puzzles, armband, and some stuff when she bored and started to stand on her stroller. I untied her. She laughed very happy and walked around near by my side. I thought she wanted to stand near my position. She forgot her flip phone toy when she saw a bunching ball. She cried aloud as a sign that she wanted to touch the ball. I was so happy when I gave it to her. You know why? That’s because the ball is cheaper than the flip phone.

I succeed to put the headband on her head while she was playing a bunching ball. She brought the ball and went to cashier. I was so happy when I got all stuffs that i need. I thought I didn't have to buy a flip phone. Hehehe.. (*)

Kenshin Sang Batossai

Rurouni Kenshin Saya bukan penggemar manga. Tapi kalo sekedar tahu lumayan sih. Meski kadang juga nda tau. Tapi untuk serial Samurai X saya lumayan tahu dari serial kartun yang pernah ditayangkan di salah satu tivi swasta di Indonesia meski nda terlalu ngikutin. Yang pasti saya pernah nonton serial kartunnya episode pertama dan terakhir. Hahahaha. Saya cukup malas untuk mengikuti semua episodenya meskipun kakak ipar saya punya koleksinya dan suami saya pernah cukup intens menonton serialnya. Nah, pas tahu kalo Samurai X ini dibuat live action, maka segeralah saya mendownloadnya. Mumpung berada di negara dimana mendownload tak membuat saya harus menangis saking lambatnya, maka dengan hati yang riang dan beberapa kali klik Rurouni Kenshin sudah menari-nari di depan mata saya sambil mengibas-ngibaskan Katana tumpul miliknya. Ceritanya tidak berbeda dengan serial kartunnya. Dibuka dengan akhir peperangan Bakumatsu di awal era Meiji, Kenshin memutuskan untuk berhenti menjadi samurai...

Banyak Ide

Aku punya ide hari ini. Tapi mataku tak bisa diajak kompromi. Padahal aku punya banyak cerita untukmu. Tapi aku harus beristirahat. Tidak lama. Cuma butuh dua jam. Kumohon tetaplah di sini sampai mataku kembali terjaga. 

Norwegian Wood

Cukup melelahkan membaca Norwegian Wood karya Haruki Murakami. Buku yang telah kulihat wujudnya sejak tahun 2004 baru aku baca di tahun 2013. Saya tidak terlalu akrab dengan karya-karya Haruki Murakami. Buku Norwegian Wood ini adalah karyanya yang pertama saya baca.  Mengapa saya berkata buku ini cukup melelahkan? Karena buku ini bercerita tentang kematian dan sangkut pautnya dengan orang-orang yang ditinggalkan. Bukan kematian yang disebabkan sakit atau tua. Tapi kematian orang-orang muda yang memilih bunuh diri.  Bersetting tahun 1970an di Jepang, sang tokoh utama, Watanabe menceritakan kembali kisahnya. Ia bertemu kembali kekasih almarhum temannya yang memilih mati bunuh diri di usia 17 tahun. Sekalipun tidak akrab mereka selalu bersama. Berkeliling mengitari Tokyo tanpa tujuan. Hingga sang perempuan, Naoko masuk panti rehabilitasi gangguan jiwa. Ia lantas bertemu Midori, perempuan nyentrik yang selalu berkata seenak dia. Perempuan yang selalu jujur mengatakan apapun yang i...
