Bagian 1 : Semarang - Jakarta - Penang

Aihhh...udah lamaaaaaaaa banget gw ga sempat2 nulis di blog gw, ampe mo nulis review serial yg gw tonton juga ga sempat2 *sigh*
Mumpung masih anget, kali ini gw akan nulis tt perjalanan gw pas longweekend maren (brangkat 22 maret 2012 siang - pulang 26 maret 2012 siang), yg bisa dibilang solo backpacking gw pertama, yg penuh cerita yg ringan yg lucu yg menjengkelkan dan yg mendebarkan, pokoknya kumplit dah...soalnya gw termasuk org yg ga gampang beradaptasi di lingkungan baru. Tapi di perjalanan gw kali ini gw belajar banget utk memanage diri gw sendiri. Berani nanya, berani malu n cuek hihihi...

Ini nih kisah gw...

Berangkat dari Semarang jam 14.40 by AirAsia (AA rute SRG-CGK PP beroperasi mulai tg 9 maret 2012, jd flight gw termasuk masih kinyis2 hihihi...) dan bakal mendarat di Jkt jam 15.40...tapi rencana tinggal rencana, krn tetep aja agak2 mundur, meskipun ngga terlalu signifikan sih.
Oya flight gw isinya full dari depan mpe belakang, kec hot seat, gw ga liat2. Dan gw dpt no 26 boooo...ternyata no buntut sangat ngga nyaman, udah kek naek angkot, kena angin dikit udah goyang2 n rasanya kek jalan ga rata. Duh pokoknya ga enak banget-nget...

Nyampe di jakarta di terminal 3 yg bersih, rapi n sepi udah jam 4 lebih. Begitu mendarat gw langsung nunggu shuttle bis ke terminal 2, ceritanya mo nitipin koper kecil gw, drpd gw seret2 ke CL, tempat ketemuan gw dg teman laen. Tapi berhubung longweekend, ternyata terminal 1 muacet pooolllll...
Setelah nanya sana sini ketemu jg tempat penitipan bagasi. Cuma harganya kae na tergantung mereka deh. Gw sempat dihargai 40rb. Gw protes donk...masak sekecil ini 40rb. Ya udah 30rb aja...tuh kan? Gw msh nawar lagi (krn gw pernah nanya di salah 1 milis), kata temen saya kok 20rb. Gw dibilang parkir aja skr udah 20rb mba...Ya udah deh, drpd gw nyeret2 ke CL, pasrah deh. Gw ga sanggup, soalnya titipan yg laen udah beraaaatttzzzz...Penitipannya buka 24jam, ntar malem jg udah gw ambil.

Abis nitipin bagasi, gw langsung cari Bus Damri Bandara yg akan bawa gw ke CL. Beruntunglah gw, pas gw nanya pas bis rute ke Blok M udah ngetem di situ. Langsung naek dunk. Tapi ternyata tu bis muter dari 1 terminal ke terminal laen, jadinya gw muter lagi ke terminal 1 yg muacet pol tadi...Alamaaaakkk...akhirnya dg syusah payah loloslah bis ini dari kemacetan tadi.
Jam 6 kami pun meluncur keluar bandara. Temen gw udah pada telp n sms nanya gw di mana...duh padahal rencana jam 6 harusnya gw udah nyampe CL ckckckck...Baru meluncur sebentar...eh ada macet2 lagi...ternyata kali ini jalan ke arah Jelambar macet total, gara2 ada kebakaran pabrik Oli di sekitar situ. Sebelum gw ngeh itu yg bikin macet gw sempat liat asep item kek kebakaran membumbung tinggi ke udara.
Ternyata bener ada kebakaran n lidah apinya menyala2 ke atas. Uuuh ngeriiii....Si bis pun ngga bisa belok, akhirnya harus mencari puteran, spy bisa kembali ke arah yg bener. Jalan ke arah Pluit, akhirnya bisa juga muter...Kata temen gw jalan ke arah Grogol macet total gara2 kebakaran di Jelambar.

Oya, gw sempat tanya ke driver, klo mo ke CL krn ni bis ngga lewat CL, katanya gw mesti turun di Slipi Jaya. Temen gw atunya sempat ngajakin ketemuan di Slipi Jaya, tp krn janjian temen laen di CL, akhirnya keputusannya gw  tetep ditunggu di CL. Mrk udah pada meluncur ke sana sih. Setelah muter2, dg syusah payah nyampe jg gw di CL, sempat keblabasan dikit berhubung gw ga tau mana tu Slipi Jaya, pdhl gw udah bilang ma kondekturnya, tp tetep aja bisnya ga brenti.

Pas ke arah Slipi Jaya gw liat tu CL ada di seberang hikhik...tp gw ga bisa turunnn n nyeberang...Nunggu Kopaja 88 yg ga dateng2 sempat gelisah n berdoa...nongol jg tu Kopaja. Wah gw ga dpt tempat duduk pdhl tangan udah pegel...Tuhan beri aku kekuatan n keselamatan, udah itu aja doa gw sepanjang jalan, lha gw udah ga bisa jagain ransel gw. Pokok pasrah ajaaahhh...Diturunin ga depan CL persis, gw mesti menyusuri lorong di depan CL. Alhasil nyampe CL gw udah lemes, ngos2an n ga bisa mikir :(
Telpon ni temen2 pada ngga diangkat lagi...Mrk call back, gw blg ga sanggup naek lagi. dah lemes, gw tunggu di tempat duduk pintu masuk CL dpn JCo (cmiiw). Temen gw pada nyamperin...udah bagi2 titipan dan gw pun terbebas dari bawaan yg bikin lemes hahahaha....

Late dinner di HokBen..tadinya mo di mana gitu...tp akhirnya salah 1 temen nawarin di HokBen aja biar gw kenyang wkwkwkwk...Mpe jam 10 akhirnya qt pun bubar. Tadinya gw rencana balek ke bandara naek bis damri lagi, tp salah 1 temen gw berbaek hati mo nganterin ke bandara. Duh puji Tuhan, secara udah malem, krn ngga sesuai rencana, agak ngeri jg keluyuran Jakarta malem2 gitu. Gw numpang mandi di rumah temen gw di Tanjung Duren. Ngobrol2 bentar, akhirnya qt brangkat ke bandara. Jauh banget booo tp jalanan udah sepiiiiii...

Nyampe bandara jam 12 malem, ambil titipan bagasi di terminal 2, hehehe...ada yg bikin malu, krn gw turun pake tangga/lift eh gw kehilangan boil temen gw, secara gw jg ga nemu tangga yg naeknya hihihii...setelah muter2 nyari tangga (pokoknya berasumsi tangga yg ke atas brarti bakal ke tempat temen gw nunggu)..ketemu jg...meluncurlah kami ke terminal 3 tempat gw akan bermalam. Yihhaaaa...gw emang memutuskan nginep di bandara malam itu.
Alasannya :
1. Flight gw jam 5 pagi
2. Klo gw di rumah temen gw, mana enak bangunin org jam 2 pagi, krn gw harus ke bandara plg ga 3 jam sebelum boarding.
Setelah nanya2 di salah satu milis, keputusan tidur di bandara not bad juga. Cuma katanya AC Lt 2 dingiiinnn...Klo di luar negeri udah biasa org tidur di bandara, di Soetta keknya kurang umum deh...entah klo di terminal 1, katanya rame juga. Pas gw ambil bagasi di terminal 2, gw liat jg beberapa org tidur2an di sono.

Bye2 ma temen gw, tadinya gw takut2 mo masuk, krn ada scanning bagasi n tulisan di atasnya utk pengantar. Banyak org nunggu late flight di luar, sempat kepikiran duduk2 di luar. Tapi akhirnya gw memutuskan masuk...untung2an deh, krn gw liat di keberangkatan udah ngga ada org. Ternyata tempat yg bener n ga dilarang tidur di dalam kok. Malah ditanya ma petugasnya, berangkat jam brp? Gw blg jam 5 pak. Discanning bawaan gw, gw langsung naek ke Lt 2. Udah sepi dunk...dan ternyata udah ada 1 orang yg tidur di situ.

Gw cari tempat yg layak buat bobok. Narik kursi CIMB Niaga, berhubung kaki gw panjang, kursinya ga cukup xixixixi...Gpp lah...lumayan bisa selonjorin kaki yg udah gempor, justru sebelum my adventure hahaha...Gw ngomel2 neh pas ketemu temen gw hikhik...abisnya blom jalan2 aja gw udah dikerjain n gempor duluaaannn...hhmmmpfh...*eitss...ga ngambek kok...boleh nitip lagi, asal jgn banyak2 ya xixixixi...*
Mo naruh badan di lantai takut dingin, cuma bawa selembar kain bali...jadinya tetep di kursi aja...Tapi ngga bisa bobok2, baru jam brp gitu gw sempat terlena bentar...Jadinya gw denger ada bbrp org yg ternyata tidur di situ jg dan ternyata AC nya ngga dingin samsek...ya biasa aja, yg jelas ga gerah deh di situ. Jam 3 gw udah bangun. Masuk ke KM, cuci muka n gosok gigi...pede aja kaga mandi hihihi...kaga ada showernya kek di LCCT sih...:P

Jam 3.30-an gw udah masuk ke pintu keberangkatan.
Antri bayar airport tax n ngisi kartu keberangkatan (gw bingung aja, katanya per 23 maret udah ngga perlu ngisi kartu embarkasi, lha yg gw isi itu bukan kartu embarkasi yah? soalnya berangkat n datang gw teteup ngisi tuhhh....). Bayar airport tax ke luar negeri Rp. 150.000,-- n berikutnya antri check in, ternyata gw salah, check in di situ klo bawa bagasi, klo engga langsung naek ke petugas imigrasi. Berhubung gw ga bawa bagasi (bawa tp temasuk bagasi kabin), gw ikutan meluncur ke atas. Ternyata counternya blom buka hihihi...dan flight kami termasuk flight pertama nehhh...Nunggu di kursi2 resto yg ada di sekitar situ, krn tu resto2 blom buka juga, akhirnya jam 4-an baru petugas imigrasi-nya dateng, langsung pada ngantri deh.
Ga pake lama, qt udah nunggu masuk ke ruang boarding. Pas jam 5-an udah disuruh masuk ke pesawat. Gw anggap on schedule lahh...berhubung ga liat jam lagi hihihi...

Penaaaaaaaaaannnnggg...i'm cominggg....
Jam 8.30 (waktu Penang) kami mendarat di Bayan Lapas. Akhirnyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...ini dia Penang!!
Saking bingungnya gw ga ada foto Airport Bayan Lapas, berhubung gw ikut org2 jalan keluar bandara hahahahaa...tapi terminalnya terhitung kecil, lagi renovasi n gw sempat ambil 2 buah brosur tt Penang...:)

Plot : 

A woman struggles to find a career, but finally lands a job as a secretary. She then falls in love with her handsome boss ...

Eun-Sul (Choi Gang-Hee) applies for job after job, but is passed over because she graduated from a third-rate university and doesn't possess a sparkling resume. In high school, Eun-Sul was notorious for fighting and fighting well. Then one day she decided to live her life the right way. She started to study hard and was able to pass a university entrance exam, even though the university wasn't prestigious. While attending university, Eun-Sul continued to study hard and also worked part-time jobs to pay her tuition fees. Now out in the real world, Eun-Sul finds landing a job extremely difficult.

One day, Eun-Sul receives a phone call and is informed she got the job. Eun-Sul becomes elated, but unbeknownst to her, the company that hired her is a loan sharking firm.

Ji-Hun (Ji Sung) seems to be the perfect guy. He is from a wealthy family, is physically attractive, and works for the company which his father runs. But actually, Ji-Hun isn't interested in the family's company. Ji-Hun is also frightened to speak in front of others and being around strangers. He has ochlophobia - a fear of crowds, as well as agoraphobia - a fear of having a panic attack and embarrassing oneself. Neither his father nor his grandmother (played by legendary veteran actress Kim Young-Ok) know of his condition. Ji-Hun isn't social because of his phobia and doesn't associate with others at the company. He's also a germaphobe, and appears to be developing more neuroses as manifestations of the anxiety he feels over working for his father, whose main style of parenting, and living, is bullying.

Bullying is nothing new to president Cha (Park Yeong-Gyu). His brother's widow, Shin Sook-Hee (Cha Hwa-Yeon), still blames him for her husband's death, due to how hard president Cha made things for the deceased. Though the two of them keep up the appearance of filial love, the only thing they want from each other is to see the other one fail, die, or both. Her son is Moo-Won (Youngwoong Jaejoong), a hard-working and conscientious junior executive in the company who seems only to want the company to do well, and is willing to pick up the slack left by Ji-Hun's failings. However, something about Moo-Won also seems a little too good to be true.

Eun-Sul has a get-together with her new employers at a bar after her first day at work. She quickly becomes enraged when her boss makes sexual passes at her and a fellow female employee. She reaches her tipping point when she sees her boss accosting her co-worker. Eun-Sul then follows her boss into the men's restroom and proceeds to tie her boss, by his necktie, to the bathroom sink.

Ji-Hun also arrives at the same bar for a get-together with his co-workers. Ji-Hun then bumps into Eun-Sul as she is leaving the bar, drops his cellphone, and becomes angry. He starts arguing with Eun-Sul, when Eun-Sul's gangster employers come rushing after her. Eun-Sul is able to fight off the gangsters and make her escape, but leaves Ji-Hun behind. Ji-Hun, left alone with the gangsters, is beaten up.

When Ji-Hun goes back home his father notices the cuts and bruises on his son's face. Ji-Hun's father goes to the gangster's office and proceeds to beat them up. The case then is picked up by the media and Ji-Hun's father is sentenced to do community service. The media coverage also damages their family business.

Ji-Hun's company then holds an interview to hire Ji-Hun a new secretary. Eun-Sul arrives at the interview with other applicants, but is ignored by her interviewers because of her poor qualifications. Angered by their lack of questions, Eun-Sul proceeds to criticize them before leaving. Eun-Sul is certain she won't be hired, but is later stunned when she actually gets the job. Eun-Sul learns afterwards that one of her interviewers, Moo-Won, recommended her. Now she finds herself as the tough but hard-working low-class girl in a pool of elitist ivy-league executive secretaries. Despite these difficulties, she also quickly earns the favor and trust of president Cha through her forthrightness and honesty.

On Eun-Sul's first day at her new job she meets her boss Ji-Hun, but both of them fail to recognize each other from the nightclub. Ji-Hun is perturbed that his cousin Moo-Won picked Eun-Sul as his secretary and proceeds to give Eun-Sul a hard time, hoping she will quit. Ji-Hun quickly discovers that Eun-Sul is persistent. Meanwhile, Eun-Sul quickly discovers that president Cha's assault case and all the headaches that come with it are fallout from the brawl she started with her former employers.

One day in the elevator Ji-Hun's father becomes angered and starts to hit Ji-Hun. Eun-Sul then jumps in between the two men and tells Ji-Hun's father that she has to protect her boss. Since that moment Ji-Hun starts giving Eun-Sul less of a hard time and to rely on her more and more...

Komen gw...
Nonton serial ini gegara rekomendasi beberapa temen yg bilang lucuuu....lagi nyari yg seger2 setelah beberapa kali nonton serial pendek yg lucu meskipun teteuuuup ada sedih2nya, tp overall mayanlah buat hiburan...
Gara2 mantengin kdrama ini gw terpaksa ninggalin serial laen yg lagi gw tonton...dan ini komentar singkat gw...

Overall cerita cinderela gitu deh...kisah seorang cewe biasa2 aja (klo ga bisa dibilang miskin) yg disukai 2 orang cowo tajir n mapan, eksmud...Si cewe, Eun Seol  ini tadinya pengangguran yg hobi banget berantem, di mana pun dan kapan pun, apalagi klo namanya digangguin...jaman skul aja udah jadi jagoan booo, yg gak takut apapun...Dia akhirnya diterima di perusahaan Ji Heon pun gegera keberaniannya itu :)

Si Ji Heon ini anak bos yg bener2 semau gue n ngga bisa diharepin, nah Eun Seol yg apply jadi sekretaris ini diterima utk ngebenahin kelakuan Ji Heon. Jelaslah terjadi tarik ulur kepentingan. Dan paling demen klo mereka lagi gedubrakan pas berantem wkwkwkwk...gokil banget. Penasaran gw gimana bikin adegan spontan kek gitu, kek original...Dari interaksi mereka lama2 Ji Heon malah jatuh tiba alias demen ma si secretary...

Dan ngga disangka ngga diduga, sodara sepupunya, Moo Won yg menerima Eun Seol pun ternyata suka juga. Gubrax!! Bersainglah mereka. Oya, Ji Heon ini punya phobia-ketakutan di tengah keramaian, termasuk klo berbicara di depan publik, di mana dia menjadi pusat perhatian.

Seperti pada umumnyaaa...cerita gokil awalnya pun ngga selamanya gokil2an muluuu...tetep ada saat2 sedihnya...dan selanjutnya silakan lanjutkan ndiri hehehehe...

Worthed kok, meski ceritanya sama sekali ngga berat, tapi juga ngga enteng2 amat. hhhmmm...cuma rasanya ini serial k-drama yg nurut gw ga terlalu mengekspos pekerjaan pemain utamanya. Gw agak bingung ma review2 resmi, katanya perush bokap Ji Heon Law Firm, tp kok gw ngrasa engga yaaahhh...ga tau deh, jenis usahanya ngga jelas buat gw. Yg jelas perush keluarga, yg ada persaingan utk jadi pimpinan di antara bokap Ji Heon dan iparnya.

Dan spt biasa serial k-drama selalu ada sesuatu gitu dehhh, ngga kek sinet2 sini, yg adanya cuma racun meracun, balas dendam tak berkesudahan...ampe ngga ketauan inti ceritanya...upsss...pokok serial atu ini alurnya enaklah buat diikutin...:)

Klo mau baca sinopsis tiap episodenya, silakan nengokin di sini
dan klo mo dunlot ostnya, silakan dunlot di sini juga

Nilai gw buat serial ini : 8/10 

Sharing : Pasporku Jadi...:)

Setelah seminggu menunggu....akhirnya hari ini 5 Agustus 2011 perpanjangan paspor gw jadi...yeyyyyy....

Tapi berhubung tadinya masih belom yakin, gw nanya seorang temen salah satu milis yg kebetulan kerja di Imigrasi Jakarta (Barat, keknya). Dia kasih tau biasanya klo petugasnya udah bilang tanggal yg disebut ya udah bisa diambil. Tapi untuk kepastiannya, gw disuruh telp ke Imigrasi ato cek website imigrasi, dg memasukkan kode permohonan paspor.

Sesuai petunjuk, gw masukkin juga kode permohonan paspor setelah ngubek2 dg agak2 pusing di web imigrasi itu, abis banyak banget link-na, gatau mana yg harus diklik. Akhirnya iseng gw klik yang Layanan Publik dan klik Layanan Paspor Online. Disitu ada beberapa pilihan. Waktu gw masukin kodenya...taraaaaa...akhirnya nongol juga status : SERAHKAN PASPOR. Ga yakin, gw nanya lagi, apa artinya paspor udah jadi? Dijawab : IYA...!!

Dengan semangat 45, akhirnya gw istirahat siang jam 13.00, biar bisa ambil tu paspor. Perjalanan yg lumayan melelahkan, 1 jam boooo dari kantor gw. Nyampe sana langsung menuju ke loket yg ditunjuk, ngga perlu ngambil no antrian ternyata. Disuruh duduk dulu, gw nunggu deh di kursi antrian. Ngga pake lama, kira2 20 menit gw disuruh tandatangan di bukti penerimaan paspor, sambil petugasnya bilang difotocopy di koperasi. Hmmm...agak lama nunggu di fotocopyan...ngantri ceritanyaa...ya udah...akhirnya selesai juga. Fotocopyan gw serahin ke petugasnya dan gw pulaaaaaaaaannnggg....Yipiiiieee...seneng banget bisa perpanjang paspor by myself hihihi...*edisi norak*. 

Oya, pas gw ngantri, gw liat ternyata orangnya ga begitu banyak...ngga tau karena ini bulan puasa ato karena hari Jumat. Di 2 loket laen (loket penyerahan berkas n loket pembayaran) ada tulisan TUTUP. Ngga nanya dan ngga jelas emang udah tutup ato emang lagi istirahat, soalnya kan di pintu ditulis jam pelayanan mpe jam 16.00 kan? Tapi sutralah yg penting urusan gw udah beres...Truz klo ada yg butuh info ini, gw saranin ngantre untuk apapun (kecuali penyerahan paspor yang emang harus siang) lebih baik datang awal deh, klo perlu sebelum jam kerja mereka kek gw...wkwkwkwk....

Yg ga kalah penting, klo ada yg butuh cap2 di paspor lama, paspor lamanya harus ditanyain juga, soalnya klo perpanjang sendiri biasanya nggak dikembaliin. Katanya klo lewat calo biasa dikembaliin. Kata temen gw ada form-nya, cuma gw engga tau harus bayar ato nggak. Ada yg bilang harus bayar, ada yg bilang cuma isi form doang. Berhubung paspor lama gw ngga banyak cap2nya ya gw ikhlasin aja ngga gw minta balik...
