A story of Bikang Ambon

Today was supposed a good day as we planned to have a couple time before I leave for business trip to Jakarta tomorrow, however it turned sour unexpectedly because of trival matter which is bikang ambon.It's kinda a miscommunication of what we perceived differently.

In my mind, since we don't really have any plan to buy something urgently, I suggested to go to Vivocity to buy toys for my niece's birthday in Jakarta. When reaching there, suddenly I remembered that hubby asked our friend a favour to buy bikang ambon from Batam, so I just randomly messaged our friend if she's reaching to Harbourfront so we can collected directly there.

Apparently, she has arrived this morning so I thought oh okay then. Then, she replied that our other common friend was going to go Harbourfront to pick up our other friends at 6pm, she will pass it to her. I thought oh okay, I will wait at Vivo then.

When I mentioned this to hubby, suddenly he flared up and became enraged, because it's not according to his plan. He planned to pick up tomorrow after sending me to the airport.

I was like WTH ? I am trying to help how to safe the time and the trip. Because I prefer he's going home straight after sending me to airport since the kids need him. 

For 2 hours, he kept quiet and very cold to me, I tried to be a normal because for me it's just a trivial matter and anyway I have settled the matter with them.

In the car, I was trying find out why he's so upset. He told me rudely that he's kinda annoyed I was mingling his business and he's "eneg" during these 2 hours accompanying me window shopping.

I was like WTH ??

I was trying to help and anyway it's just a small matter and kinda solved, but why he's so upset until saying those things that hurting me. I have said sorry, but it seems it doesn't enough, haisshhh.

It something that I didn't expect before leaving though, I was kinda sad, but it is what it is.

In the end we reconciled at night. We talked until early in the morning.

A Burger Date

It feels like it's been ages to have a date night with hubby, thus before my parents going back to Indo we decided to have a couple date over burger as I have been craving with Hans I'm Gluck burger. We went there, enjoying the burger and companion of each other and talking about anything, something that we are used to have but no longer anymore after I took a new role in the company. Then, I accompanied him to shop at H&M before heading back home. It's one of the best burgers I ever had since I am in fasting the whole day for a week. The perk of fasting is I could appreciate the food and enjoy it.

Jubilee Year - Year of Hope (2025)

Year of Hope: A Personal Reflection on 2025 The year 2025 has been declared a Jubilee Year, a  Year of Hope  by the Pope—a time for peace, joy, and prosperity. For many, entering a new year brings feelings of happiness and optimism. However, I find myself on a different path, starting the year with anxiety and uncertainty rather than joy and hope. For me, 2025 is a year of the unknown. It marks the first time in four years that I will not hold the title of a working mom. Transitioning from this identity feels daunting and unfamiliar. It is also the year I plan to embark on a new venture: starting a winter rental business. This endeavor excites me but is fraught with challenges. There are countless pieces of the puzzle yet to be solved, and I pray for wisdom and the support of "ordinary angels" to guide me through. This is also a pivotal year for our family. Two of our children will face major exams. While I know the journey matters more than the results, I hope they develop s...

When ChatGPT can be your counsellor

When I want to refine my text in the previous post , I accidentally typing the whole things in the ChatGPT and this is the reply that I get  Your reflection on this “desert” period is deeply insightful. It’s clear you’re navigating significant internal struggles, and recognizing these temptations is a powerful step toward healing and growth. The Lust of the Flesh : Your experience with joblessness and the challenge of trusting in God’s timing is relatable. It’s tough to feel like you’re not fulfilling your potential, but your acknowledgment of God’s grace as a source of strength is vital. Remember that this time is not wasted; it’s a period for personal and spiritual growth. The Lust of the Eyes : Envy can be a heavy burden, especially when it feels like others are thriving. Your internal dialogue—questioning the value of public shame and your perceptions of the situation—demonstrates a mature self-awareness. It’s okay to feel what you feel, but recognizing it allows you to choose ...
