Forbidden Spots on Campus: Me and 'Mysterious' Cleaning Service (Part 2)

This second post,as I promised in a related post (before), would discuss the strange-experience of me and my besties, when we were still became student at Gadjah Mada University (UGM), ago. 

Still remember about mystery stories in campus? a.k.a Forbidden Spots? Well, this time I'll tell you, purely fact, from our personal experiences. It happened without we were realize what or why, could be, it related to the--unwritten--restrictions, that we broke (who knows???) -__- 

A few years ago, precisely in 2010-early 2011, me and my besties name Raifa (@raifaraifa) followed English Course held in one of study center on campus. Me and Raifa always took on the same class. So we were leave and go home together. Accidentally, we stayed at the same flat. At the moment we were in stressful times. So we looked for the bustle outside, one of them by took an evening course classes, from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. After class hours, we were usually hangout until mid night time, we had dinner and some time we had cyber surfing in hotspot area.

We were often use hotspot facilities in Balairung area (The Rectorate)--Sayap Selatan (South Hall). There are some people who subsequently became a cyber-net community in south hall, including me and Raifa. Roughly when it rains, there are only 3-5 people there (including me and Raifa). If the weather is nice, 11-13 people of community members who keep stay there (including me and Raifa, of course). But of the whole amount, me and raifa just-one-two women in the community. Could you imagine that? We were the goddamn-night-lady among the insomnia people! *cheers

On average, the community just keep in front their laptop from 8 p.m. until 12 p.m. More than that time, it was rarely, because they would be warned by campus security or SKK.

That night, after had dinner, we were get Balairung at 10 p.m. As usual. It was not strange for us. The only strange thing was atmosphere that night, quite silent. Maybe, it because the rain fell since maghrib. We were see, at the round table under the umbrella (where we were used to sit and surfing internet), so quiet. The weather was cold, and the table still wet from the drizzle. There were only five people (include me and Raifa). I've familiar their face, of course.  

Because the table wet, we were decided to sit "lesehan/nglesot" (I really dunno what it means on English :D) in the inside building of Balairung (Rectorate). We were think, inside building, the air is warmer than outside. We were start searching internet with a little jokes to relieve the loneliness by the night. Up on my curiosity, when I saw the floor. Then there was the silly question of me:

Me : "Fa, ni lantai dipel ga sih tiap hari? Kok ga pernah ada kotoran perasaan?" (Fa, this floor-mop every day isn't it? How come there is never dirty?)

Raifa : "Jelas lah Ning, gila aja lu. Masa UGM ga cukup uang buat bayar cleaning service sih. Lagian ini rektorat kali..." (Obviously Ning, you just crazy. How can UGM does not have enough money to pay the cleaning service eh? This is Rectorate anyway.. )

Me : "Iya sih...tapi kok gw ga pernah liat yang ngebersihin rektorat sih kalau ke sini?" (Well, yeah ... but how come I never see people who clean the Hall if I came here?)

Raifa : "Lu pikir...kalo lu kuliah, dia ngebersihin, emang lu bisa liat? Yang jelas, dia ngebersihinnya ya di jam kerja lah. Jam kerja kampus kan sampai jam 4 sore." (You think ... if you're in college, he was clean the Hall, weve you can see? Clearly, he was clean the Hall in working hours. The hours of Campus until 4 p.m. right?)

Me : "Iya juga sih ya...mana ada cleaning service jam segini, ini dah hampir jam 12 anyway Fa.." (Yeah you're right anyway ... how could there any cleaning service at this hour, it was almost 12 p.m. anyway Fa ..)

Raifa : "Hahaha, betul. Gila aja, kalo ada cleaning service jam segini mah bukan manusia kali ya? Hahaha. Bercanda lu!" (Hahaha, yeah. Just crazy, if there was a cleaning service at this hour, he was definitely not a human, right? Hahaha. Foolish!)

Me : "Sinting lo Fa! Hahaha" (Of course. Hahahaha... )








JREEENG JREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!


A.N.D. Y.O.U. K.N.O.W. W.H.A.T ?????????????








After I stopped laughing, I turned to the end of the Hall which was far for me. The visibility from where I was sitting to the end of the Hall (to the 2nd floor) approximately 100 meters.....I saw a cleaning service through, he pushing wheelie bin contain 3 trash bins in yellow, green, and blue colors.


WHAT THEEEE...............DAAAAAMMMMM....................................................




W.A.I.T. !!!! W.A.I.T. !!!!! W.A.I.T. !!!!!

A split second, I turned on Raifa (who still busy with her surfing internet), and said with enthusiasm.  

"Fa! Ituuu!! Gw liat!! Barusan ada cleaning service lewat situ!!" (Fa, there!! I saw it!! There are cleaning service, he has just through the Hall there!!.)

*Think: did she also saw it?* "Lo liat juga kan?" (You also saw it? Right?)

 Raifa: *melongo* "Hah? Apaan sih, Ning?! Gada siapa-siapa tuh.." (*staring* Hah? What the heck, Ning?! No one there...)

Me : "Tapi.............." (But...........) *when I looked again, there are no one at the end of the hall....



I really obvious it was CLEARLY, I saw a cleaning service pushing wheelie bin through the Hall. But............where is he???
I had argued briefly with Raifa. She said it was impossible. I believe that my vision was very CLEAR. Even, I CLEARLY see, he LOOKED AT ME SOOO SHARPLY, and pushed his wheelie bin through the Hall. (The only problem is.... I didn't see the bottom .......... did he walked by his REAL foot or ............OMG! Protect me, Yaa Robb!)

A few seconds subsequently, We decided to re-check the mysterious guy, while carrying our laptop. Get end of the Hall, we were not find anyone! (*please note that the inside building connect with the outside building, so, if he moves to bring the trash to outside, it would through the front Hall) We chase him .... but .. we did not find anything........................even in the front Hall (where the community gathered was already quite) THERE ARE NO ONE.............


BINGO!


I began feel the creeps in back of my neck. Raifa and I looked at each other, and she told me:

"Ning, udahan yuk...kayaknya udah mulai ga beres nih hawanya...." (Ning, Let's go ahead.....seems like the weather goes so wrong here.............)

OH SO YESSSSS...............without she asked too, I've thought SO.!




Having reached the flat, we were think rationally, if the cleaning service pushed the wheelie bin, it might not be able through the Hall of inside building .... why? ............ because the building has a Yard in the center, however, for connecting the Yard with the Hall inside, there is only one way, by the stairs. So, if he brought a wheelie bin? It was highly impossible. By which way? The stairs?  

C'mon, surely we would be heard the noise "dag-dag-dug-dug" at least, when the wheelie up the stairs. Right??

If you wanna know about Balairung UGM, click here, I connected with a trusty-link... or click here if you wanna know, UGM at the past.... :)


Fiiuuuhhh....

OK... this might be due to our last conversations, we were "fishing" the mysterious cleaning service to came .............


The restriction number ONE : Do not stay at Balairung (Rectorate) more than 9 p.m. 
Flashback-----> almost every day, we stay there till 1 a.m. (GOOD!)


The restriction number TWO :  Do not be in a quiet place, when the atmosphere was cold and the drizzle fall small.
Flashback---------> we were choose a quiet place to sit instead. (OH, NICE!)


 The restriction number THREE : Do not provoke conversation that seem "challenging" or "fishing" something to come.
flashback------->  actually we like "fishing" something to come ........ (REALLY GREAT!)




The restrictions was not my own writing, but the news has spread by our almamater. Our friends. Our lecturer. The SKK. The employees.............

Forbidden Spots on Campus: Myth or Fact? (1)

Hi there! See ya again! It was sooooooo long I didn't type on the keyboard to update my blog. I really missed this blog! Really!!! 

Well...This post will definitely be an exciting theme, because the theme I talk about is..............mystery ! Get ready for goosebumps ya! Hahahaha :D *annoying face

The theme started from my delightful feeling (mystery=delightful??? sounds CRAZY -_-) when I read tweets by a cyber friend, just call her Dwita. @dwitasaridwita 

Some time ago, she was raving about the mystery in her ex-campus. Universitas Indonesia (UI). Yes, maybe Dwita was alumnus of UI. Perhaps, some of you (the visitors from Indonesia) will be really familiar with the mystery story on campus, and, about her tweets......here we go....... :)

Told, there are two women, you name it Ani and Cici. Until eight p.m. they were still in campus to complete assignments. They sat and chatting until was 10 p.m. When both were in conversations, came a woman, also sat on their bench. Ani and Cici just catch a glimpse, and the woman looked down, but she smile on her face behind. After a while, there was conversations:
The Woman : "Why do you guys haven't go home yet?"
Ani : "We are completing the assignments. This, my friend is still downloading"
The Woman : "You guys not afraid?"
Ani : "Hahaha, of course not. Why we must afraid?" 
And once again, the woman just smile on her face behind....looks mysterious.

A moment later, Ani want to unplug the laptop charger those under table. She looked down at the table, and..........................instantly, her face became pale. She was silent and just said to Cici: 


Ani : "Let's go home!" (she cleared his stuff quickly).
Cici : "Why? I have not finished downloading yet."
Ani : "Come on, hurry up!!!! It was finished!!!"
Cici : "But................WHY? Why did you look afraid like that?"
Ani did not answer. She just pulled Cici's hand to leave immediately. As they get to leave, the woman (once again!) just smile on her mysterious face behind, and said:
The Woman : "Why you guys did rush?........... You guys've finished?.............. or............ you guys already know........ about me....................?" 
And, Ani didn't care, she pulled Cici run from the spot. And turns out .... when Ani looked down to pull out the laptop charger, she noticed that the woman legs .................... s h e - h a s - n o -  l e g s !!!!


O.M.G. !


//o```````o\\



W.A.I.T. !


Up from here, it seems, I've heard kind of stories, in my ex-campus too... yea, this story was very similar to stories that circulating in my ex-campus, Gadjah Mada University (UGM).  

Though UI quite far from UGM... I mean, UI in jakarta while Gadjah Mada University in Yogyakarta. Turns out, this campus both has a mystery story that nearly similar. The ghost without legs. The difference, at my ex-campus UGM, he was form like campus security (in UGM it called SKK campus, they have blue uniform). 

But the story was almost same. At UGM there had been an--unwritten--restrictions, they had forbidden spots. One of the spots, located in Balairung Sayap Utara (Balairung--The North Hall) *if you didn't know where it is, you better ask people in UGM* The rumors, there was often seen SKK without his legs. 

KEEP IN MIND: It only appears if we broke the--unwritten--restrictions on forbbiden spot.

For example: If in that place circulated rumors or unwritten--restrictions that you should not be in that location until more than 4 p.m. or 9 p.m. So, keep obey! 

Perhaps, the rumors could be you've heard from your friends, from other people in UGM, from the employees around the Hall, or even a warning from SKK. If there are rules or warning like that in any area or spot, so remember, keep it by your self!
There are some areas or spots that I know, there was an--unwritten--restrictions (I have known this by myself and people close to me, we had strage-experienced because we broke the--unwritten--restrictions in that spots.) You wanna know? Ah, I should not say here. Look, if you really want to know for things like that, find by yourself.

But in next post, I will tell you about my experience and one of my besties too, related to the forbidden spots. See ya soon!  :)

What To Wear: Jumpsuit for Daily?

I love to style outfits around statement pieces i.e. shoes, tops or bottoms. 
 Deciding what to wear on a daily basis depends on my mood and of course, and the weather. But for these jumpsuits, I give the thumbs!


I love the jumpsuit, trendy!



Adorable dark!








For cute style, choose cheerful colors :)



Nude colors also cute.


 
Floral pattern for your sunny day.



If you want to blend it with the hijab, you don't need to worry, girls... Just wear your inner *(Indonesian people call it manset...or cuff wear in english??? I really don't know what better name than this -___- ) and your hijab. Choose the match colors with your jumpsuit.

A Song That Suits My Mood Today

Tiba saat mengerti, jerit suara hati 
Yang letih meski mencoba
Melabuhkan rasa yang ada

Mohon tinggal sejenak, lupakanlah waktu
Temani air mataku, teteskan lara
Merajut asa, menjalin mimpi, endapkan sepi-sepi

Cinta 'kan membawamu
kembali disini, menuai rindu
Membasuh perih
Bawa serta dirimu, dirimu yang dulu
Mencintaiku apa adanya

Saat dusta mengalir, jujurkanlah hati
Genangkan batin jiwamu, genangkan cinta
Seperti dulu, saat bersama, tak ada keraguan 
(A Song by Dewa 19)

Matchmaking? ''(-_____-)'' Ok, Bye!

"X is a businessman's son, he is good man, religious, and blah blah ... sometime I'll introduce you to him. Who knows you both have affinity and chemistry"

BOOOM!!! In what year is this? I'm feeling oh-so-lost! *help help -___________-

It's such a phrase I've often heard, lately............(not from my parents anyway, it's from my uncles with-or my aunts.) Yea.. I'm bored. Too bored instead. Why do people still have ambitions to match me (or my cousin of course) with someone else? The classic answer: Bibit, Bebet, Bobot.

Bibit, Bebet, Bobot means the parameters of javanese tradition of matchmaking based on:
  • Bibit (Who is he/she, and Who is his/her parents/family); 
  • Bebet (the economy factor and the personality); 
  • and Bobot (the qualities of religion, education, handsome / beauty, etc..)
Due to my family (based on the Javanese tradition) *(read: story about me Part 1- 6 ), then all of that was ABSOLUTE. The matter you are happy or not happy, that the umpteen numbers of law of the jungle. Wassalam.

Determine: Friend or Foe ?

.....We used to love one another,
Give to each other,
Lie under covers so,
Are you friend or foe ?


  
That's a piece of lyric Friend or Foe by TATU. 

Sometimes in life, there are no fully people who like us. There are some parts that don't like us. It's normal. Everything happen by reasons. Both like or dislike. Even when we think someone as a friend, she/he may not necessarily able to be trusted as a friend. 

They talk about you behind without you realize that, why or what. Even possible, they are also preparing evil-plans to bring you down from your position. Even The Prophet Salallahu'alaihi Wassalam is inseparable from those who envy and hate him, moreover us.  

So, if you don't want to get hurt, you should determine who is friend and who is foe... It doesn't mean we prejudiced someone before. Just to keep you more sensitive on people around you.

Rest In Peace Ust Jeffry Al Bukhory

Inna lillaahi wa innaa ilaihi raaji'uun..

What a shocking news I heard this morning after Subuh. My lil sister told me that she read news from timeline on twitter, and the shocking news is Ustadz Jeffry Al Bukhori (as know as UJe) just passed away about 1 a.m. ago.
Inna lillaahi wa innaa ilaihi raaji'uun..
For the first time, I did not really sure the news that I've heard. I think, ummm...Uje ???? What's cause??! He was so young. Very energectic as Ustadz. Lot of young people love to listen to his talk (I mean ceramah, syiar Islam).
But after I watch on TV and yes....the news was true. I was shocked. Really shocked. Of course, muslims lost Uje figure. 

Goodbye Ustadz, deep condolences for you Ust...  


وَلاَ تَقُولُواْ لِمَنْ يُقْتَلُ فِي سَبيلِ اللّهِ أَمْوَاتٌ بَلْ أَحْيَاء وَلَكِن لاَّ تَشْعُرُونَ (2:154)
