Going Home Sale

ocpuso — Mon, 11 Jul 2011 15:02:22 +0000

Yes you read it correctly: Going Home Sale. I have decided to go back to my home country in search for a different life. My days here are numbered. And so are my belongings. I am trying to get rid of most (if not all) of my stuff before I head back home.

For the next few weeks, I’m holding my own version of garage sale:

Going Home Sale
http://ocpuso.mysclass.com/products-page/

On the list currently are roughly fifty items. New items will be listed as time progress, so please be sure to come back and check it out again.

If you are looking for a piece of furniture to fit in your lounge, or a bed frame, toys for kids, a kitchen scale, or even a car, make sure you check out my junk. Take your time to browse through items, and if you’re interested in a particular item, let me know either by:

sms/phone (0408 0842 982)
email to octa dot karsono at gmail dot com
comment on the item

And I’ll get back to you. First come first serve policy. No reasonable offer will be turned down. Afterall, it’s better for the items to find a new owner who’ll look after them and get a good use out of them rather than them ending up in the garbage bin.

Seven Days Seven Nights

24 hours has passed since I heard from Miss Slanted Eyes. She’s playing game with me: a shorter (and family-friendly, yet much harder) version of 40 Days and 40 Nights.

Not sure if I’ll be able to survive right through the game.

Ten Years

Today marks the ten years that I’ve spent my life in this beautiful country. From early uni days where pocket money was a luxury, friends were merely for assignment purposes, to costly shopping spree, multiple holidays in a year and many, many happy parties, all have been etched in memory.

With one of RMIT lecturers. I guess everyone else in the photo is now married.

Ten years on, and I am and will still continue enjoying life.

Breaking the Habit

Two pieces of story today:

I had been staying either on the camping mat on the floor, or on the couch in the living room for the past 10 days or so, and last night when I finally got back to sleep on my own bed, it felt sooooo good.
I finished the last of tooth floss last Tuesday. And I didn’t get the chance to get another one until today. So after brushing my teeth just now, I did flossing again. After five days without flossing my teeth, I gotta say I feel very, very fresh again. The unclean feeling, the stuck food and germs, and the bad breath have now gone away.

Sometimes in life, we need to break the habit, go outside our comfort zone, suffer a little bit, and when we’re back to the routine, we’ll appreciate small little things (which we would have otherwise taken for granted) a little more.

On A Bed Of Nails

A good night sleep is a hard thing to come by these days. Every time I drifted into the subconscious world, you’ll show right up in front of me. Whether this is the projection of my subconscious mind, or God is playing games with me, I don’t know. In a way, I always enjoyed your company. But every time when that alarm bell rang, I had to get back to reality and once again I realised it’s all just a dream and I’ve lost you. That sucked the life out of me every morning. If only reality and imagination ever go hand in hand.

And the truth is, Baby, you’re all that I need.
