BOARDING HOUSE (IT'S BEEN 4 TIMES)



BOARDING HOUSE (IT'S BEEN 4 TIMES)

Hmmm,, I think, time has gone so fast in a blink (I’m just overrated!!!). Yeah, I’m already at 3rd year student of University of Indonesia. Well, Jeez!! It’s only a year more and promise me I’ll graduate on time. Hahaha.. I don’t even have a theme for my undergraduate thesis yet. T.T” Anyway, just forget it for awhile (just don’t have any mood to discuss it right now and right here.. hahhaa, intermezzo!!). Oh yes, as I remember that I have already moved 4 times in case of looking for the proper boarding house just to meet my convenience and comfort. It’s kinda a lil’ bit self centered but it does matter for me!!

The first boarding house that I ever lived was somewhere in Kutek, the main reason why I left it was I forced by situation to wait the yellow bus (it was kinda bored because you had to wait quite long at bus stop anyway and I hate it), moreover it located very deep inside so I felt like isolated somehow from the city life (it’s kinda rural area something, so desolate at night but sometimes I heard some noises which came from the native youngsters, played guitar and sang songs that I didn’t know who were the singers and their voices were so bad... totally disturbed my time to study), and the most sucks thing which often happened was black out!!! (Bloody hell, I kinda scared because my boarding house was completely dark and I was about afraid of something would appear in the middle of dark, something transparent, passed through the wall, and untouched ground). I started imagine something silly, I lived at the second floor and there were only five rooms. The bad news was 2 rooms were empty!! One on my right room and the other was just right in front of my room!! Damn, so it was only the 3 of us (fellas from Law and Psychology Faculty) and when the blackout attacked we ran out from our room and down stairs quickly (the frequency would be more in rainy season and it’s exactly terror for me). Because i didn’t like that such situation so, i quite often slept over at my pal’s room (Dormitory, Sawo Alley, Barel (behind the railway station), Pocin (at margonda), Kober, or somewhere else). Hahaa.. I was just alike a pre-historic man who had not a permanent place to live (nomaden). I lived about a year so, i spent 2 terms stayed at that fuckin’ house. I just couldn’t stand anylonger, it’s torturing me!!

So, I decided to move to Sawo Alley, it located exactly behind the railway station. Some of my best buddies were stayed there (up till now), i was so happy living in my second boarding house. I lived at the second floor (again) room number 19 (there were 19 rooms) and the good news was there were huge windows so i could starred up to the sky, watched every shape of clouds and enjoyed the sunlight when it went down, from my yummy bed. It was a bright room (so much different from my previous one because the formerly one was kinda dark, yes there was a window but very, very small and when i opened it all i could see was only wall of neighbor’s house!! Sucks!). Well, leave all those past behind!! (i had buried them in coffin). It’s a lovable place with the cordiality of people who living there, so much fun!! And i didn’t have to wait the yellow bus anymore just to get home (yeah, i’m free!!), moreover i could go to anywhere i wanted because the access was much better, it near by the Margonda boulevard!! Hmmm.. I thought it was the most comportable place and didn’t have any idea to move anymore. Unfortunately, my sister just accepted as a student of State Polytechic Jakarta. Daddy wanted us to have a shared room and i still wanted to live here but there was no room available. So, i left my bright room which i loved so much with burdened heart. Hiikss.. >.< (so sad..!!). I spent my life along ayear there. Now it’s over!! T___T”

Finally, for the third times, i officially moved!! But not far away from my second boarding house. We (i, dad, and my sister) got the new one, it was in Kober. Actually i didn’t like it so much because it’s dark and so many plants there (uugghh,, i hate them so much.. i’m kinda afraid of them. Indeed!!). The owner was so crazy about plants and every morning, i usually caught her watering them and sometimes planting the new one (oh, pleasee.. It was just already looked alike woods!!). It’s frightening me anyway!! Besides that the window of my room couldn’t be opened!! The bathroom lamp was yellow (i don’t like yellow lamps in room, i’m just afraid). One the good news, there was a swimming pool which could be used by occupants only!! Hmmm, it was such fun when i felt so hot and sweaty by the sunlight and then i splashed down into the pool. Damn cool and bbrrrr...!!! It provided complete public facilities such as a very large fridge, television, stove, wash basin, daily newspaper, dining room, sofa, living room, mineral water, and terrace house keeping!! But all those good stuffs didn’t satify me at all, i wanted to get out from that blaze as soon as possible!! (it just kept running on my head everyday and always bugging me). I couldn’t live my life happily, felt terribly insecure and lack of pleasant (i didn’t know why i felt such bad things, i just felt so. That’s all, besides because of the plants!). I stayed there only 3 months!! No, i didn’t have any desire at all to overstay my contract.

For the fourth times, i moved and found the new one again!! (I and Niken searched together). It’s still located in Kober because i love this place, an alley where you can find anything what you need and want such as stationeries, computer accessories, shoes, clothes, foods, book stores (new or used), photocopy services, and much more along the way!! (it’s cool!!) and moreover they (the merchants) are charged the reasonable prices on their goods and services (not too expensive and very competitive!!). Well, my new boarding house which i still stay up till present is quite cozy to live in. I like it, just like my second boarding house. It’s bright, large windows, and not much plants!! (that’s the most important.. haha!! I also phobia of butterflies). Hmm... i can open my door widely in the morning and smell the air these days. I feel so much better now, no worries, no anxious. Those things had gone away!! If i compare the facilities that i got between my third boarding house and the last one, surely i don’t get such things at all in my new ghetto but i don’t really need them anyway. I care nothing a damn!! I hope, this gonna be the last time of my migration. I really enjoy this place. The picture above is corners that i captured from my room! ^^, It is light blue painted, fair large room for two, white lamps, and no more black out!!
