IF ...

Kemarin Abangku nanya, "If your blog becomes very booming, and you become very famous due to that, as famous as JK Rowling, will you still be willing to make friend with me?"

(Kebangeten banget yah dia, masak aku dibandingin JK Rowling? sounds very impossible, ya kan? Itu nanya atau ngeledek yah? LOL.)

I was speechless when he asked me like that. (Ternyata dia kreatif juga, nanya sesuatu that never comes across my mind yet. LOL.) But I was really wondering what on earth that out of the blue made him ask me such a question?

After being speechless for some time, I responded, "I never think about that yet Bang. I cannot answer that question then." And then he said, "Smart answer." Weleh, kayak ga kenal Nana aja, kan memang Nana smart? LOL.

Aku pengennya sih jawab, "I will not forget you of course Bang. How can I?" But kok sounds gombal yah? LOL. Kalo jawab, "Oh well Bang, for sure I will forget you." wakakakaka ... kok sounds very arrogant? belum pernah jadi orang terkenal yak? wakakakaka ... Padahal aku adalah orang yang sangat sensitif to "smell" arrogance, meskipun aku sendiri mengakui sometimes I am an intellectual snob, not my mistake lah tapinya kalau aku gampang bosen menghadapi orang yang tidak broad-minded karena kurang baca? (Nana is finding an excuse for herself. LOL.)

Kemarin aku post satu artikel di blog http://afemaleguest.blog.co.uk bukan tulisanku sendiri, tapi sebuah tulisan yang telah sekitar 3 tahun ini ngendon di dalam harddisk PC ku, about how Old Testament and New Testament describe women's position versus how Alquran describe women's position. Email yang kuterima dari seorang teman beberapa hari lalu membuatku membuka artikel yang telah kubaca beberapa kali itu sejak aku mendownloadnya dari internet, dan membuatku berpikir untuk mengirimkan artikel tersebut ke temanku itu now that she is accessible to internet.

Dan hari ini, ketika aku ngecek statistik di blog ku tersebut, jumlah pageviews melonjak lumayan tinggi. Dan, aku baca di postingan salah seorang teman blog (male), dia nulis uneg-unegnya tentang perempuan (dan juga laki-laki) yang kurang kerjaan meneriakkan feminism. Weleh ... orang Barat pun ternyata masih buanyak yang alergi dengan feminism. LOL.

Ketika ngecek statistik blog ku itu, and found the increasing number in the pageviews, aku jadi ingat keisengan Abangku kemarin. So, nulislah aku tentang hal itu di sini. :)

Here is the statistics:

Semalam dia sms nanya apakah aku masih kesel sama dia gara-gara dia godain tentang hal itu. Oh well, kok dia ge-er amat yah kalo aku masih kepikiran hal tersebut? huehehehe ... Padahal aku kan udah hafal banget keusilan dan keisengan dia kalo jailnya lagi kumat. LOL. Tapi kalau lagi baikan ya gitu deh, kirim mp3 players yang mirip iPOD itu ke aku, dua biji lagi. huehehehe ... Copy lagu-lagu di CDs, bikin cover CD yang keren abis, tulis namaku di situ, plus his loving nick for me, Humming Bird, dan beberapa picku dia print dan dia tempel di CD, weleh, narcissist abis deh pokoknya. Wakakakaka ...

If a picture paints a thousand words ...

The gift from him utters a million words about him to me ...

MP3 player, dll

Exactly a week ago, November 3, my Abang told me that he went to the post office to send me some CDs and 2 mp3players. (Pertanyaan: kok 2? lah inilah si Nana yang greedy, huehehehe, minta dikirimin 2 biji sekaligus, one for me, and the other one is for my lovely star, Angie. Lah, salah sapa kok Abang nawarin? Wakakaka ... )

We thought that the gift would arrive soon, just like the first one last September. He sent it on September 8, I got it on September 12, it only took 2 working days. Tunggu punya tunggu ... kok sampe 4 hari working days, tuh barang belum sampe ke alamatku??? Dan Abangku yang pakar IT itu (snob banget tuh kadang-kadang gara-gara aku gap tek, LOL) langsung ngecek track nya lewat internet. And he found out that the gift already arrived in DHL Jakarta on November 7. But then, nyasar kemana? Kok ga ada pemberitahuan ke aku?

This morning, November 10, I called the office of DHL Semarang to ask about that. A customer service answered, and she told me that the gift was already in Semarang, only I had to pay some fee, dibilangnya pajak import. Waduh, kayak aku ini importir aja harus bayar pajak import, padahal kan aku cuma dikirimin barang? LOL. Yah ... sekali-sekali ngerasain jadi tukang import deh. Wakakaka ...

After calling, I went to DHL office located on jalan Siliwangi, not far from my home. Dan setelah agak direpotkan dengan ID card, nomor hape yang salah ketik, dan ini dan itu, akhirnya I got the gift my only Abang sent me last Friday. I directly went home afterwards, ga tahan nafsu ngeliatnya. Huehehehe ...

At home, I opened the package in the livingroom, very carefully, very lovingly. LOL. Ah ... seandainya adikku yang kadang-kadang berperan sebagai tukang rekam gambar ada di rumah, kuminta dia mengabadikan peristiwa itu. Cie ... LOL. Abang pasti suka ngeliatnya. LOL. (sok pede, wakakakaka ...) There were some CDs, hasil kompilasi Abang dari ratusan CDs yang dia punya. (Catat: dia kompilasi dari ratusan CDs yang dia punya, kemudian dia menghasilkan sekitar 7 CDs spesial berisi lagu-lagu kesukaannya. He wanted to share those wonderful songs with me. (Oh you know, he always wants to share everything he has with me!!! How very sweet and kind and loving and caring and generous and ... apalagi yah??? LOL.)

Setelah puas memperhatikan CDs, aku membuka dos berisi mp3 players. Ups ... kok canggih amat yak? Ga ngertilah aku nih how to use them? Wakakakaka ... yang 1GB berwarna hitam, my favorite color, yang 2GB warna putih metalik. And I have already told Abang that I would use the one with 2GB (maklum, greedy, LOL. Besides, I told Angie that I would need to download many things from internet, mostly articles, pictures so I need the bigger memory than she does. And as usual, my understanding lovely star agreed. :) bukannya si nyokap sok mau menang sendiri loh ya? LOL.)

Tapi, waktu ngeliat warna yang 1GB itu hitam, wah, aku jadi tergoda untuk memakai yang 1GB itu. LOL. But, when I was chatting with Abang, dia bilang, "Na, kamu janji pakai yang 2GB, so kamu HARUS pakai yang 2GB. Okey?" Waduh, kok dia bisa baca pikiranku yah bahwa aku sudah tergoda dengan yang 1GB gara-gara warnanya hitam? huehehehe ... He is much better reader to me now, compared to some months ago. :)

Well, now he is waiting there (kira-kira dia ngapain yah ketika aku ngetik di sini? Asal ga lagi ngiler aja, wakakakaka ...) udah dulu ah, I cannot write long. I will go back chatting with him again. :)

Thanks a billion my dearest Abang for everything.
