A Meal without Wine Called Breakfast

What's on your mind when the night comes and you wake up in the morning with your beloved?

Ehm...! Breakfast will be the part of your lovely day for sure. Forget about what happened last night but I really love to ask one of my favorite silly question:

Coffee, Tea, or Me?

And I always love to hear from him:

Well, it's not me what he eat for breakfast but I can find him more into tea rather than coffee. Got two times found him twice a day with tea while I randomly could choose coffee or tea; depends on the mood.

Yet after he left, I'm surprised that I always choose tea in my favorite coffee shop. Do I miss being myself to keep choosing coffee as good way to start the day somehow? Nope.

I miss you. I miss having you and your tea while I'm having my coffee.

Starbucks Bali Galeria, Tuesday, 19 February 2013.

It's raining outside and hard for me to breathe.

I keep sending you a picture, I keep write a post about you and never give up with the distance. Hell yea!

And... I keep dreaming as day dreaming is my favorite guilty pleasure *big smile*

Romantic tea

Breakfast to serve

RE: Feb 5 Love Notes

It’s kinda funny how we miss the old style of writing by pen and blank paper, put it down in words, and waiting for so long of postal services just to receive a letter.

And now how we grateful that technology bring us faster in deliver and receive the message through any media.

I don’t even think to borrow a pen and ask for paper at the coffee shop when he’s going to leave notes before the airplane took him away.

So after 17 days he left,  what written on my iPod touch- my favorite read for sure, I’m thinking to leave a reply with touch of old style: writing with pen, paper, and enjoy the heart beats for every single word written.

What if you have the same chance to write a love letter and thinking about the love letter itself?

Mine are:

Imaginary thinking to be the happiest bride and do exchanging love letter before ceremony

Having a vintage mail box in my own future house

Got the chance to write to your beloved? Who’s your lucky one?

Mine:

The one I could be falling in love and make the moment of missing him is a pain.

But suddenly, my heart skips a beat, whether I should just keep this as everything seems too good to be true,

Or

Having in my own beach way: message in bottle- with little wishes:

The love letter might be flowing with the wave, but the beach will brings you back- to me :’)

Happy Birthday, Super Mom!

Feel free to create the meaning of 32, free thinker!

Make a wish, blow out the candles, and celebrate one year older. It's your day.

Birthday surprise for Mariska Tampi - I wish I were there!

You're the strange person I met a year ago, and I believe you think the same, but we decided to know each other a long time.

Have a lovely Monday for all lovely women ☻

 

Note to self: RELAX

A good working life is when you assume nothing.

A good working life is when nothing can stop you from becoming yourself.

A good working life is when you don't RSVP for any drama.

It's A Process, Changes Takes Time

Are you ready to leave Bali?
Are you sure?
Those two questions keep spinning in my head.

It's been almost 1,5 year living a good life here until one of my big boss to be- said: "your base will be in Jakarta, Risya."

My heart skip a bit. Mixed feelings there. Happy, sad, loved, grateful, scared..

 
 I keep fight myself "this is the time.. this is your dream.. this is what you waiting for.. get up little girl...!

 worth to wait (part II)

And my beloved people keep telling me everything will be okay, you will always be okay.

 I keep my faith, I know good things will happen :')

Runaway, Runway!

One friend ask whether I'm still interested with runway activity. Why should I?

Well sometime I like to be a center of attention but walking in runway with glamorous performance and put a very thick mask is seriously not interesting (anymore).

It looks good somehow, interesting for sure.

Whaddap, Valentine?

I'm not 'that' Valentine person who do 'well prepare' to celebrate the 14 February by chocolate, rose, nor a greetings card. Yea I know you will assume I'm not a romantic person but alright, alright!

I call someone and quite shy to say "Happy Valentine" when he busy at the gym.
Guess you catch a red cheek and flirty eyes after I hang up the phone.
And it's not because a romance feeling of Valentine. I just miss him ☹

I'm drowning to some moments that makes me really grateful and more enjoy this lovely day!

☁

I'm not waiting for him while he dive deep 30 meters underwater but I can see the boat after he got a chocolate & potato chips.

☁

Definitely enjoy the sandy beach while he enjoy the beauty underwater.

Beach, beach, and beach? No touch of Valentine? Well, 

"I" from R.I.S.Y.A is "Incredibly a Beach Lover". 

How about this?

 

☁

 Oh me too! I want to be there!

But deep down inside, I simply want to come back here:

 ☁

 Into the place that we meet.

Or 

 ☁ 

Doing crazy little things and having bottles of beer.

 ☁

 

 Enjoy the best sunset in Kuta Bali.

(I took this picture yesterday, 13 February 13 at Catholic Church FX. Yes! My mind is full of you ♥)

"I can feel him around" I whisper myself. 

I look at my right, the other office desk of mine with a color Valentine, finally!

♡

Coffee inside the Starbucks tumbler of SWEET ❤ , 3 Roses, candies, calendars, pinky stuffs, and a card of heart-tree. Yes! iHeart Chris ☺

And two speakers hiding behind my monitor play this:

 Is This Love - Bob Marley

 Have a beachy Valentine, beach lovers! 

Walk As A Lady

Ohhh... not again, my dear.

He tried to listen and look how could I keep come to his office and took a lot of tissue papers as he provide for me.

Take me out of here...! Take me from all the drama that I don't even interested to be the part of the show, nor to watch.

Giving up? No I'm not.

pinterest

Oh anyway I'm counting my days to leave soon, and enjoy the rest of the days.

Keep Classy!

We walk out from the office, and he whispering "cloth yourself with dignity, and walk as a lady"

A Happy Chinese New Year ❣

新年快乐(xīn nián kuài lè)! Happy New Year!


新年快乐 xīn nián kuài lè May your lives be full of pleasant surprises, new opportunities and successful journeys in the coming year.

Gōng xǐ fā cái, hóng bāo ná lái

Hahahah...! Those two words are always easy to remember. You say happy new year and you wish for  something inside the red envelope.

Well I'm not good in Mandarin as I learn this language during my hotel management program but I think anything about Chinese, such the language itself, the culture, the food, and the people, is always interesting.

Hmmm... I used to falling in love with Chinese guy couple years ago, flirt some of them, and flirt whoever Chinese guy. Starring at Chinese crew from one of big airplane company when I was working as Front Desk Agent, flirt on VIP guest from Taipei, Singapore, and local Chinese from Indonesia. Oh girl!

It was two years ago we're celebrate Chinese New Year with him and family. We had a great night while I'm wearing red dress and he keep yelling "Oh shit, baby, you look seriously like Chinese and I hate it." LOL

I don't know my grandma (from my dad) so much, but my mom telling me that there is Chiang mai   in her blood. Ah, now I know why my father have a Chinese look and people sometime assume he were Chinese. And me...? Hell yeah, if I keep my white skin and not using soft lenses or glasses, I bet you can see that I'm a Chinese. Oh Grandma, can we talk a minute? 

Through this red paper lantern, maybe?

pinterest

Interesting to put the lanterns on what I wrote, as deep down inside, I'm dreaming someday about this:

ღ

 A simple beach wedding with paper lanterns

ღ

Sky lanterns and watch them floating over the ocean

 ღ

 The happiest bride who have her beach wedding with her beach life mate :')

with Chinese guy? Western guy? Mix Chinese & Western guy? We never know...

Maybe it's you  ♥

See Miracles In Life Everyday ☺

My Dear Risya...

Stop telling "I'm okay" when you're not
Stop laughing behind your laugh
Stop crying behind your smile

My friends said so.

My Dear Friends...

I was totally okay with all happened to me ☺
I'm overwhelmed with gratitude cause things are just 'that' good.

As you can see now my real smile hiding nothing except happiness. Bet you know why!

I'm quit from my job
I smile ☺, means I'm enjoying my life

 ❣

pinterest

Hakuna Matata!
Instead of hiding my pain through my smile, I choose to put a real smile. Enjoying the ride of my own roller coaster life; it's all about laughing and living in good and bad times thou. I'm getting through whatever comes, I say good bye to all the drama and looking back with smile ☺

❣

   

pinterest

Trust yourself and keep the faith, little Risya!

I keep a faith of 'worth to wait' 'till I finally found him ☺

Me: I don't want you go back ☹

Chris: Stop looking at your watch, enjoy every little time we spend, and give me your smile, just like the first time you smile at me.

I hate airport...! ✈
The big white airplane took my man away. I've tried and I'm trying, Chris! I'm trying to let the time bring you home. I'm trying to put a very wide smile on my face if it's makes you happy. And I'm trying to hide my tears when I see you from far away until I read this:

♡

 part of Chris's love 'notes' letter

One more sleepless night ☹
I woke up with morning text: Sad to leave you. Take care xxx
Well this is my another day I'm dying to wake up without him. I open my eyes and look at my right side and couldn't find you. Tell me how do I smile if you used to be the one that put the smile on my face?
Oh, maybe just remember this, the owner of my wide smile!

I thank You God- and the universe for all miracles..

and I thank you, Chris, for everything :')
