My last weekend was really fun and relaxing. It was a long-weekend since on Monday the country celebrated Hindu Day of Silence. I was actually already booked since the previous month for a family activity, either at Kampung Sampireun, Garut (if not fully booked) or Puncak (at my relative's villa in Kota Bunga)...
But instead......,
Since I feel a great necessity to have a time for my own -away from duties & obligations- I went to my friend's place. I told my parents that I had to do some group assignments with friends and that me and classmates had decided to conduct a meeting in my friend's crib in Bogor to work on the project and spend some quality times together. Well... half of the story was true and half of it was not... hehehe...naughty me.. :P
I really worked on my assignment (and I really finished it in one day...yeay!) and had my quality times with my friends.......... in Jakarta... hehehe... :D
On Saturday, after I had a clubs-brainstorming meeting on campus, my friends and I went to a painting exhibition and apartment show unit exhibition at Rasuna Epicentrum Center, a mega-billion project from Bakrie, located at Kuningan, South Jakarta.
In the evening we had dinner at Din Tai Fung, Plaza Arcadia Senayan (the xiao long bao was really delicious and entertaining... worth to try) before we went to X-2, a new, very happening and hip club in Plaza Senayan.
The new club was huge and has 4 different clubbing areas. The center floor was for trance music lover and there was a room was for disco fever. These two areas were located at the club's first floor. At it's second floor, there was another big room for hip-hop R&B brotha' n sista'. I don't remember all the names for these areas except for one specific room that was dedicated only for members: "Ego". Yep, as the name means, the room was really egoistic that non-members could not enter.
In my opinion, the club has a great interior and clubbing concept, but it was so packed with mixed crowds that I found a hard time to enjoy myself. After about maybe an hour or so, we decided to pay a visit to Red Square to meet some friends for a while and go home. Yep... we finally hit the road to be home by around 01.00 hrs.
The next day, Sunday, I really spent my whole day in the house working on my assignments while my friends went outside for the painting auction. I was satisfied that I accomplished my college assignments on that day and was able to use internet for e-mails, chatting, and some research.
In the afternoon, I went swimming for a while. I actually wanted to swim for 30minutes, but since I hadn't eaten anything energizing throughout the day (again, bad diet program), I could only survived for 15 minutes in the pool and only 3 minutes in the sauna until I decided to hit the shower and back to the living room and have some rest, watching the hillarious Will & Grace series.
On Monday, I finally went back home and had lunch with my bro at The Buffet in Mal Ciputra. During my trip back home, riding my motorcycle, I really felt a satisfaction and happiness of having time for my own, away from my duties and obligation as student, son, and community member (moreover, the day was cool and windy and shiny when I rode my motorbike home). Yep... nobody and nothing put pressures on me. It was really peaceful, and I feel very much ready to face the real world again: assignments, paper works, selling sandwiches, being a son, being a brother, being a student and last but not least: being a member in this judgmental society.
Thanks to my friends R+S for the hospitality they have provided me and also to da' gank for spending time with me.
