Freelance architect vs Fulltime architect

Okay here's the pros and cons

Freelance:
-Don't have to wake up early to go to work
-Have more flexible time, don't have to work 8 to 5
-Don't have to take mc when get sick
-Don't have to face the boss all the time :D
-Don't have to plan the vacation with a very limited annual leave
-But still get the same amount of salary *smirk*

Fulltime:
-Have all the benefits, medical reimbursement etc
-Meet friends everyday (or if you're unlucky; colleagues)
-Get annual bonus
-Get to dress up everyday (I have to admit I missed this :((
-Can learn a lot through various experience and exposure

But since I hate the monotone life of 8 to 5 and really2 hate woke up early and I'm not that keen to site surveys and detailed drawings (in short: not really keen to become a real architect). I guess freelance architect's life is for me :D

The best 2 years of my life

I would probably say when I was in Singapore. I didn't realize it at he time since I was apart prom my husband and all, all I could think was to leave Singapore and to be with my husband.

But now when I looked back, I had a very blast years. I performed twice at Surbana annual dinner ( I know, it was not THAT big a deal, but hey, the audience is about 500!), and won the talent show. Won the ADT idol,went to Ho Chi Minh alone for business trip, model a fashion show, become mc, and become one of the face of Surbana (err..you know, the face that you see on the huge picture on the entrance lobby of an office), but at the end the picts didn't developed (we already have a photoshoot with a professional photographer!) due to the budget cutbacks..d*** you economic crisis!

All of those stuff was soo fun and unexpected. I was so fearless back there, more confident and jumped to any opportunities given mainly because I was in a foreign country, and I thought; "they didn't know me anyway, I'm here only for a year". Funny enough, I didn't dare to do all that stuff when I was in Bandung. Maybe because I thought "there's people who know me" and "there's more talented people out there", which make me hesitate.

Which is why the quote "the only thing that could stop you is you" is quite right, If I kept thinking that no one knows me anyway, and kept the mindset I had in Singapore, maybe I could be more fearless, maybe I could achieve so much more in life.

yes, that was me, dancing like crazy ;p

Dreams do come true

Again, I've experience the magnificent journey that make me truly believe that dreams do come true.

Congratulations my dear husband, you're dreams finally came true *and mine also!*

Another hectic week

Is the excuse on why I didn't post anything lately.
Another project (which I feel very blessed to have one, but the timing, arrrgh!)and
my brother's wedding day.

Unfortunately I don't have that thing that they say women have it compare to men.

Multitasking ability.

I can only focus on one thing at the time, especially if the task required a high concentration. So lately I've been eating late, didn't do my choirs, and again, skip cooking :P

Imagine if we have kids. This won't work! :(
I didn't feel that I'm the typical image of housewife yet. I thought going back to Bandung, going back to my parents home will help me to learn that. But I think I haven't improve (well, significantly *sigh*)

Is there any guideline and tips on how to be a good housewife and working women at the same time?:D

Kunjungan ke dokter kandungan

Setalah menikah lebih dari setaun dan belum juga ada marissa dan alfa jr, untuk menenangkan diri (dan menenangkan keluarga) maka saya dan suami berkunjung ke dokter kandungan untuk mengetahui apa yang salah( hopefully there's not any!)

sebenerna kita udah 2 kali ke dokter kandungan di rumah sakit ibu dan anak yang cukup terkenal di Bandung yang berinisial..errr ga jadi deh nanti masuk penjara :D

tapi karena biaya yang muahhaaallll (250 rebu untuk konsul+usg!) dan dokter yang kurang komunikatif dan edukatif kami memutuskan ga mau balik lagi(apalagi setelah ujug2 disuruh tes lab padahal pengobatan yang dulu belom selesai dengan biaya 600 rb, HIKS!) setelah tanya sana sini dan dari rekomendasi seorang teman, kami memutuskan untuk berobat di Kimia Farma dengan dokter Widyastuti :D

Sabtu kmaren merupakan kunjungan pertama kami dannn dokternya oke banget! kami dijelaskan dengan seksama, sangat komunikatif, baik dan pintar, dan 100 ribu untuk konsul+usg :D

alhamdulillahh..dengan mantep kami mengikuti semua saran bu dokter, semoga aja hasilnya juga bagus(=berhasil :D) aminn :D

Quote of the day

"Your Life is your message to the world. Make it Inspiring"

Our dream home

We finally sign the paperworks for the apartment we bought last Sunday. And we finally saw the real product by seeing the show unit.




my mom at the master bedroom :D



daddy at the tiny kitchen, me likey!



relax at the family room :D

It's soo cute! Small and warm like we always wanted.
And of course, my dream is to be able to fill the room with these furnitures:





IKEA!
*if we decided to stay in this apartment that is :D

Garage sale

I was browsing through my laptop folder and I found this
:D



Our garage sale offer when we have to move from KL to Bandung.
Quite a bargain huh?
and we got ourselves a Sony Alpha by selling all those stuff ;P

Best Husband in the World

It may sounded corny but my husband is the best husband i can ever hoped for.
He's understanding
Dependable
and always always there for me

Especially during the previous-very-hectic-crazy-months where I overload with projects.
I stopped cooking for him *if you realize I never posted any cooking lately, that's because I didn't cook :-|* Made a mess on our 12 sqm space *imagine if we stayed in our own house!* Only able to cook him noodle, tempe, noodle, and tempe for breakfast :-( sometimes i didn't woke up at all because I stayed up until very2 late working.

He didn't complain when I didn't cook for dinner.
He even bought us dinner.
He asked me if i need anything, when I have to work late
He helped me if I got tired (fortunately he knows a little photoshop and have a skill in layout)
He came home early when I asked him to help me


There's only one way to summarize it:
He's the best husband in the wholeee world!

Happy Birthday Marissa Fauzia :-)


*whispering a prayer*

Ameeen :-)
