This morning i called my friend who lives in Bontang, East Borneo n she told me that she was celebrating the anniversary of oundation she works for – joining some activities such as joining ceremony ( singing the anthem, kami keluarga ......satu dalam makna meskipun tanpa kata .. bla...bla...bla... ), fishing, having some games and many others).
Talking bout anniversary / birthday, i have something to memorize since sometimes i made ridiculus act and it put me stupid situation.
It happened few years ago when i was still teaching employees of a company in Bontang. I was in a classroom explaining ‘numbers and date’ to the participants (they are bapak2 PKT, a lot older than i am J - maksudnya saya yg paling muda gitu). Then one of them aksed when my birthday is. and i jokingly and spontaneously answered that my birthday is 7 December – it’s PKT’s anniversary). It’s just a joke and i thought they understood it since it was not my birthday. On that date, when we met again in the classroom, i got a big surprise from them. They gave me a gift completely wrappped with ribbons and they sang a birthday song. Gosh..... i wish i was my trully birthday. Hik...hik..hik... then they asked me to open the gift and when i opened it i even could not say a word. It’s a very nice bracelet. I was happy on one hand. On the other hand, i fetl guilty coz i lied to them bout my birthday., i didn’t tell them frankly bout my b’day. And they thought it was my b’day. I didn’t have the hearth to tell the truth to them. But it haunted me everynite i wanted to sleep. Then i decided2 confess bout my b’day fori didn’t deserve to get their gift. when we met again i brought cake for them to vanish my guilty and explained the truth, they just laughted and said that they already knew the fact i didn’t celebrate my b’day on Dec 7. But they just wanted 2 give me a gift. ha??????? They have already planned it. It’s okay. I apologized for not telling the truth and we ate the cake together. Lesson: do not lie to old people coz you;ll be trapped. Tapi klo samayg lebih muda, gpp pan kalah umur J J
Last year (2007, my new workplace) my big boss celebrated his birhtday and i got a job to buy a birthday cake to him. Evertything’s ready. We planned to give the cake after the meeting by singing a song. I entered to room bringing the cake while others were standing and singing birthday song. He was surprised with our surpize. J J then he gave speech bla...bla.....bla..... (panjang dan udah lupa isinya nek).then it came to cut the cake. The first slice is usually specially given 2 special person (macam pacar, ortu, pembantu jg boleh –klo emang dia bener2spesial bwat kita). I got shocked when he came to me and gave the cake to me (udah ge er duluan nehhhh. Am i special4him? Prasaan ga deh. Wong saya baru beberapa minggu join perush ini kok). Ternyata eh ternyata setelah kasih kue ke saya, si bapak bilang alasannya kenapa kasih kue ke saya. Karena sebentar lagi i’ll be sent somewhere which they’re afraid i could not find and eat delicious cake easilly coz the place is abit remote gitu. Ya....ga jadi ge er dunks. Gpp it meant that he (all my friends at office) still care and think of me. Asal tau ajah ni ya.... di tempat saya dikirim sekarang, susyah bgt cari kue yang enak. Lesson:just enjoy what u’ve got now, coz somewhere, somehow you’ll lose it and miss it a lot – it’s not yours anyomore.
