The Umpteenth Journal Attempt

(Hopefully) daily ramblings from the hazy mind of Hasief Ardiasyah

Horse and carriage 

On the way to a wedding with the folks, the car radio mentioned that today was the 15th of May. The date seemed significant, but it didn't hit me until moments later: it was their second anniversary. My, how time flies. And then there was something else I realised: the batik shirt I had on was the same one I wore two years ago. Must've had some subliminal thing going.

Anyway, there were many people who knew Mum 2 from way back when, and some had also brought their kids along. Fodder for Dad on the way home, with the main gist being it's natural for parents to want their kids to marry their friends' kids (the parents' friends, that is). And then he went on about how looks and sex appeal aren't the only important things, that any potential bride-to-be should come from a good family background, etcetera. Good advice...the thing is, I already have all that in mind, so he's just preaching to the choir. But it's his anniversary, so I'll let it slide.

Cosmic pop culture reference coincidence of the day: was tuned to Channel V, watching Jet Sessions, a special featuring Jet performing live in the studio, interspersed with interview footage. Switch to MTV Asia, and it's a TV spot for a special on the making of Shrek 2...with Jet's 'Are You Gonna Be My Girl' as background music. But then again, that song's being used everywhere, so maybe this isn't that big of a coincidence...
