Friday nights, catching up with some of my university friends, the newly weds couple Evan and Susan- which btw I came to your wedding last year, the only reason why I went home is to attend your wedding and just a reminder that you promised me to come to my wedding wherever and whenever it will be 😉 and the one that always have idea to hang out every time while we were still in Bandung- Darren. What makes you so busy that you only able to meet us after 9 huh? haha 😉
Susan called me yesterday to asked where should we meet for dinner, she suggested Chinese food and I said “No, I came from China and I don’t want to eat any Chinese food here, I want to have bakso” So here we are! they brought me to the famous bakso place according to go-food app. Butttt! Because I’ve been away from home for quiet some time, I didn’t get use to how spicy the soup was so I’d had to ask for another clear soup to be able to kill the meatballs haha
And then she said there was another very happening snack called “Banana Nugget” there were many copy of it but we went to the authentic original one according to Susan and Evan haha! And it’s like a chicken nugget but instead of nugget it is a banana duhhh! We ordered Susan’s favorite Almond, Cheese and Chocolate. At first I want to order the Nutella and Milo but she said it will be giung which is too sweet so OK we went to her choice and the taste was surprisingly delicious!
And our busy Darren was still somewhere in Central Park, so we went to another Cafe called High Ground. When we arrived, there was some game tournament going on. We didn’t know what kind of game tournament but it was pretty serious one, and we found that there also have many many many board games. We don’t know how to play the board game but me and Susan just choose the one that was quiet funny from the boxes.
We picked up some board games and read the instructions but in the end we didnt play the board games. Susan picked up poopyhead, from all the game…she need to choose that and I read the instructions and still had no idea on how the games works, besides Evan was eating so we’d better respect him 😀
Instead we played some kind of detective to search where was Darren, it will only takes 20 minutes to go from Central Park to where we are but idk Darren took quiet some time and always said otw, and yeah otw since 40 minutes ago haha!
And finally Darren came! he came to us, he brought a paper bag and he gave to me saying “this is your independence cake, I can give you the lighter but you gotta light the candle yourself” pheww it’s very surprising that I will have to light my birthday cake by myself haha and he need to have additional sentence: it will be more independence if you chip in on the cake haha such Darren! I was like gezzz we met once a year yo! 😉 and he said “at first I wanted to give a surprise but it will be awkward if I just came by myself and sing a song by myself and my voice is so bad” haha
We were talking about our nostalgic time in our beloved university where all of us met which is UNPAR, we talked about our teacher that looks like a Korean boyband named Edward, the handsome computer teacher which Evan was so sure his name was Fernando while 3 of us doesn’t even know it, the hepatitis diseases that was spread suddenly and Evan was one of the victim that got hospitalized, the one that will get married soon. And by the time we realized these all happened like 10 years ago! We became……. experience haha not old, bitch please! we never grow old hahaha 😉
And then Darren sent me home but since we were so busy talking about the past time like how funny we were and by the time we reached my parent’s apartment, I’ve told him that I still have the same car that I drove on my university time, but he remember most about the previous car before this-my sister Honda City car’s. I was sooo sucked at driving car and every time I always asked Darren to help me park the car, one night it was a rainy day in Bandung but we were going to our accounting lessons and I couldn’t park it so I just parked randomly on the slightly middle of the street and I called Darren to help me parked the car, but the when he got in he said “your glass is covered by 80% film and I can see nothing, it’s just my feeling to park your car” and yes my father put the 80% glass film so it will be dark haha! Darren knew my ability of driving car, he once called me that I forgot to turn on the lights haha! how can I survive driving without you Darren 😉
The day was not over yet until I arrived home and realized I left the cake at his car! Arrghhhh I feel sooo bad that he bought it for me but then I left it but I was genuinely forget about it, it wasn’t my intention, so Darren need to come back again and bring the cake, lucky he was still close by 😀
Thanks for the “independence cake”, thanks for the time that you guys share with me, thanks for all the stories. For Susan and Evan, have fun in Russia I guess you will celebrate your 1st wedding anniversary there yeah? haha! and I will count the time if we will have an additional family member after your Russian trip * if you know what I mean haha 😉
See you when I see you friends!
