"Ibu yakin ia bisa menghabiskan semuanya?"
Note on the upper-right side of the printed ad.:
"So much nutritious food he has to eat to fulfill his need everyday.
Are YOU sure he can eat them ALL?"
And WHICH mother would tell their children to eat that amount of food in ONE time? We are not dumb, Abbott (yes friends, I can hear your answer, that some 'oknum' does some dumb things occasionally).
Psst, Abbott, you know how to do basic mathematical operation, right? I mean, like division and multiplication? Just like addition and subtraction?
Anyway, this Abbott does know about 'daily intake', right? (though he knows, I doubt he will tell you, seeing this silly ad.)

"Ms. Lita, my students (which I don't teach because they're in humanities class) said that you're so 'gaul' ", few days ago my colleague said that. I replied with "Huh?". He said these are the reasons the students gave:
- I have a blog. Blogs, actually. But I like to keep only this Banana Talk open. Others are not quite important hehehe…
- I was one of the Pesta Blogger 2007 committee. Oh, it was a big luck indeed. :)
- I have a Facebook account. Not just that, kids! And Friendster (hari gini? hahaha…). And Multiply, LinkedIn, Myspace, Hi5, and… I forgot. And no, I don't remember all of the logins. Thanks to Mac OS' keychain.
- Yes dear, I'm a chemistry teacher.
- A mother of two struggling boys.
- And I wear veil.
Now, you tell me which part of the above mentioned qualifies (or -fy) me as 'gaul'. Help me to understand these youngsters, please.
Postscript.
BTW, does any of you like My Chemical Romance? I stumbled upon their song somewhere. I didn't know who was that, I just liked it. I only found 'The Black Parade' in the nearest Disc Tarra. Can you recommend a more complete music store where I can find MCR's first and second album? I want 'Teenagers'.
No I'm not a fan, just the song. Don't bother to ask me trivia questions about MCR. And I don't care if you said it's the gayest band ever. So what gitu loh.
pps.
Yesterday, another colleague asked, "How many children do you have?". "Two", I said, "Why?". He replied, "Oh. Nothing. You look like a high school student". And there was much bigger "HUH?" than the first one. Maksut loo? Jadi ngomongin bodi, neh?
Happy holidays, everyone! Dan selamat hari raya qurban. Semoga kita dimampukan untuk berqurban (lagi, untuk yang sudah) tahun depan.

Daud belajar dengan cepat dari Ibrahim, terutama di bagian bilang "Ngga mau!". Hanya dua yang tidak ditolaknya: ditawari makan (kecuali sudah kenyang, itupun seringkali masih mau ditawari camilan) dan menonton Finley/Thomas/Cars.
Sejak kemarin udara memang terasa cukup dingin. Walau begitu, selama tidur malam tiap kali diselimuti tak lama kemudian Daud pasti menjejak lepas selimutnya. Bangun agak siang (jam 7.30), Daud langsung minta menonton Finley.
Bunda: "Daud, mandi yuk! Nanti nonton lagi"
Daud: "Ngga mau!"
Bunda: "Kok ngga mau, sih?"
Daud: "Dingin!" (tanpa melepas pandangan dari Finley)
*Ayah & bunda bengong*
"Now that's new, Yah. Biasanya kan cuma 'ngga mau' tanpa bisa memberi alasan", bunda kagum sekaligus pengen ketawa. Ya was-was juga, adanya alasan baru berarti mempersulit trik menyuruh mandi. Sementara ayah memilih ngeloyor pergi, "Perasaanku campur aduk. Antara gemes, mau marah, dan kagum". Bunda pilih nyengir aja, deh
