Can I just take a moment off from work to review my last week? Two weeks ago on Friday our brand new LED tv finally came. It felt great that we finally could watch anything after our old tv broke down. I never realized how much I've missed tv cos I'm used to live without it anyway.

On Monday, my dear boss went back to Japan. It felt really weird to see him go. I always feel like he belongs here in this country. He loves Indonesia so much he had visited various places which names I've never even heard of. He could be annoying at times, but he was the best boss I could ever ask for. He was fun, funny, kind, hardworking, young, most of all - he loves what he does and that is kind of contagious. I do not like my job, but his existence has made this job less insufferable. Now I am left with a new boss who doesn't know what she's doing and doesn't seem to love any of it.

On Tuesday, came an important day of my life. I rarely get nervous, but I was really am on that day. It was the day that I got the chance to get a job I've dreamed of and to be free of my current one. I had a test and an interview for Education Section of the embassy, and it felt like everything to me. I was overconfident because I knew everyone was on my side, cheering me, ensuring me that I would be the one who gets the job.

Turns out, on Wednesday I got a call and I did not get the job. This hit me harder than I thought it would. I went home crying to my pillow for hours.

I continued to do so on Thursday morning, which was a national holiday here so I decided that I had to go out and do something else other than being a pathetic loser who cries to their pillow. I realized that this is the perfect time for retail theraphy, so I went out with my mom and dad, and I had a new phone by the time I got back (it was stupid, cheap and ugly, btw). I also got my mom a blouse.

On Friday I went to work as usual, still can not accept the fact that I lost a job that I've dreamt of. I have the qualification, I have the determination, I was sure I could do the job. This is going to haunt me forever.

On Saturday I went for a morning walk with my mom. We went to see the canal near our house. I did chores after. Overall, it was an okay day.

On Sunday I went for another retail theraphy. This time I didn't hesitate. I bought a laptop, a dress, four shirts, two hijab inners, and I also bought my mom a blouse and some scrafs. But relax, I don't have the luxury to buy any piece of clothing that is more expensive than $15, loll

I haven't done anything special to the new laptop, but it's always exciting to have a new gadget. I'm sure I'm going back to my online life with it in my bedroom.
