Jakarta and why i can’t live without it

09.00PM: had a little chat with my cousin. it was fine chill out moment… y’know… family. planning to visit Grand Indonesia and watch Music For Sale.

09.somethingPM: a little traffic getting into the parking lot.. sigh.. this is nothing compared to traffic last monday or traffic i had at CGK parking lot… it was okay… y’know… Grand Indonesia, saturday night, tanggal muda… stuffs.

Grand Indonesia till 10 something PM: Man, i’ve been away for way too long. Look at those beautiful things walking around. It’s either way or combination of: mini skirt, legging, 9” shoes, low cut shirt, black, red or pink support bra with custom cup (hahaha i’m imagining things or am i?), (i’m sorry my english vocab on fashion a bit short) baju terusan bahan katun, beberapa bahan kaos, long wavy or straight hair beberapa di highlight, celana balon dengan banyak kancing, baju terusan with jane’s cut, low cut tank top, cardigans (something familiar), weird cardigans (they developed!), washed out jeans, Dr. Martens (apparently their back!), saddle bag, blackberry, and stuff. the funny thing is they come in pack, it reminds me of predator when they hunt. Please note: i’m NOT checking the guys!

i spotted several boobs while hanging out near the void and being 6”11, i’m not required to be near void all the time. Now, this where things getting interesting. These ladies wearing difficult getup to analyse. True, it highlighting body’s line, how they defies gravity, how it sway with the steps… but, the colours and sometime the motives are like camouflage. moreover, i couldnt think any easy way to get’em off it, literally. Maybe, they don’t need to do it in a rush.. maybe… well they moved on.

anyway, why they have to make it difficult while men only care for simple things? i think i know the answer, they want to pleased their girlfriend… and they read too many vogue, cosmopolitan, and magazine.

the positive thing is, no one (i’m aware of) dressing ‘out’ of their body type.

We left at 10 pass for dinner. Again, there was traffic on the way out.

10:45PM: We had dinner jalan lombok… now this is something familiar.

11.30PM: We’re heading to sabang, my kid brother asked for Hokben’s sukiyaki. We passed sarinah and it remind me of GTA (Gran Thea Auto)… ahahaha… those were the f***in day. as we passed the sarinah bus’s shelter i cast a ghastly image of thea in my mind. Man, wasnt she the BOMB… looked like nicky astria and part of ingatan anak2 sma/kuliah di masanya… hahahaha.

Alas, Sabang was closed. Some construction work repairing the city’s sewer.

01.00AM: We’re back at home. damn, i really missed my ol’ saturday nite. which usually goes like this:

1. Sabtu siang berangkat ke ambasador beli dvd. Nonton dikit pulangnya. Nyuci mobil sore2. kontak2an ama anak jam 5-7 sore. berangkat jam 8 round et vous di tempat makan, makan sambil nongkrong2 sekalian ngecek siapa yang punya invitation ke club. jam 10 berangkat, again nongkrong2 lagi di depan club nunggu rame. jam 11 masuk, nyari spot sekalian analisa medan perang. jam 12-3 kobam skalian usaha to get lucky. jam 4-5 if we’re lucky, berangkat lagi ke club yang buka ampe siang ato check-in. if not, berangkat ke menteng makan skalian chillin down. jam 6-7 sampe rumah ato sampe rumah temen. jam 1-2 siang kalo di rumah temen jam segene jalan nyari makan trus pulang ke rumah deh. And!! we don’t stop at saturday nite. there were Ladies Night, Campuss Night, Friday night, and overall 5 days a week. atau;
2. If we’re not going clubbing… ya nongkrong… di Parkit, Lembang, Menteng, Cinere (tempatnya maxi), Blok M, Blok S, Pisang (deket APT), Main billiard di Bengkel, JC, Kenari, Arena… ampe pagi.

Dan foto2nya, dare to guess?

Unfortunately… era itu hape berkamera dan kamera digital masih barang antik… jadi rada susah nyari fotonya, even in the internet.

Folks, if these are your picture and you want it removed… let me know.
