Aftermath Of Friday (And Saturday)

Early Sunday morning, me and Pietter were already on our way to Plaza Semanggi to meet up with Eriz, for the trip to Bogor. We intend to continue our recording session with Krayola there, and Sunday was the only day this month our schedules matched for a full-day trip. More details at Krayola's official website.

Eventually, the problem at the office was solved, due to the hard work and patience of Eja and Intan, and I'll be sure to at least treat them to lunch or dinner some time. Thanks guys!

As for the bass.... I still haven't thought of it. Maybe I'm trying not to think of it. I only got as far as, maybe I should put up an 'emergency bass replacement fund' on my blog to receive any donations, hahaha... but seriously, what do you think?

F***ed Up Day

This morning, Saskia called to give me some bad news: the electric bass I had asked a friend to help fix was robbed out of his car last night, along with the guitar effect in the same bag, and his iPod. To this minute, I still don't know how to react to that news, considering that the bass came along with quite an effort. But on the fringes of my mind, I feel sad...

But I had to block it out for the day. There was a lot happening at work, lots of details, meetings and deadlines to meet. So I put it aside for the day...
In the meantime, the office was running a contest to send a winner overseas; but many complications came out of the project, a lot of them unforseen, but a lot of basic elements caused it, as the program was a bit forced from the start by my superiors. I don't want to play the blame game, but I'm pretty sure that somebody will. I feel sorry for Eja; she took the brunt of the problems and confided in me, where I should be helping her. I don't know if I helped enough, and I don't think she got enough support from elsewhere, frankly. Save your ass to save it another day, I guess.

I'll see if I can work out the problems tomorrow, as it is only tomorrow we can work it out.

Meanwhile, the fact about the lost electric bass still remains in its box, untouched...

One Hour And Counting...

We left the office at about 7. Pitty and Okis wanted to take a cab home, so I obliged. One not-so-short snooze later, WE'RE STILL ON THE ROAD! And the road is filled by increasingly impatient people wanting to reach home. But at least, we're not so far now...

Loving The Camera

Last night, I was unwinding on the bed, when suddenly Meong sent me a text message - 'Joe! You're On TV!' I immediately turned on the TV and sure enough, there I was... I helped Sacha out for her show last year, reviewing some music phones, and finally I got to watch the episode, heheh. Some other friends spotted me and sent text messages as well, and this morning Mom called saying she watched me as well, as my uncle spotted me and called them to watch.

Boy, I look fat. But I'll try to love the camera...

Krayola @ STIE Trisakti

Atas bantuan manajer Krayola yang baru, Anye, kita berkesempatan untuk manggung di acara 'MTV Tamu Istimewa', lokasinya di STIE Trisakti, Grogol. Kebetulan kita yang manggung pertama...di bawah ada slideshownya, silakan menikmati...

Uneasy

Ever feel the dread, just when you wake in the morning?
Ever feel your eyes heavy the split second before slumber?

It's a good thing I have my beloved chocolate caramel, or else I'd be nuts by now.

On The Prowl

Hunting for purposedly dropped scraps of food, negotiating the jungle of sofas and other furniture; sleping under the shade of tables; seeking out petting as the only reward of the grueling feline life.

It's tough being a house cat.
