Ticket Scalper

One thing I hate most is escorting the departure of someone to the bus/train station or even to the airport. Because I hate goodbye..
But tonight I have to letting go my hubbly-chubbly for the second time to travel to another place in Indonesia. So, I escorting him to the airport at 8 pm and we arrived at 9 pm. I really don't have a heart to see him traveled with such condition, he really does not feeling well. While waiting the departure time, we sat on a bench with other people. Next to me and my hubbly-chubbly, there are two ladies, an Indonesian and an expatriate. One thing caught my eyes, the expatriate lady seems arguing with few people near her, then suddenly, she turn her head to me and asked "do you speak English?" then I answered "yes I do, why?". "Can you explain to them that I don't want to pay any cent for the ticket because they tried to fooled me, look, there's 2 prices in this ticket, I can't accept that!".
Oohh.... now I Understand why she arguing with those people. It turns out that she bought a ticket from a ticket scalper and they tried to change the price. After a long debate between her and those scalpers, finally they gave up and said “ok, just asked her how many she wants to pay? We just don’t want if she complained to the security guard because it will be a big mess for us”
Then I asked to her, after, she replied “Its ok for me to pay more than normal price but, if they tried to fooled with changed the price, I can’t accept that, I agree if they offered me for 2.450.000 rupiah” then the problem is solved, they agreed.
She insist to pay with her price because she already saw my hubbly-chubbly ticket which has the same destination, while my hubbly-chubbly only paid for 2.049.000 rupiah for the ticket.
It’s a funny thing and only happened in our beloved country, there are some people do the dirty job like that, a scalper we called it. They booked a lot of tickets then they sale it to other people with a higher price.
“Thank you so much.. You helping me dealing with those people, I promised I will take care of him (pointed at my hubbly-chubbly) as own son, I will be his momma.. hehe..”
I just smiled back and said, “thank you to you too… please take care him ok?” Then they went together to get the boarding pass…
Finally, the moment I hate most….. Waving goodbye to them….
And after that, I walk myself home, alone…

Sayang.. Aku bukan samsak....

On my way to pick up my hubbly-chubbly on the airport, I received a phone call from one of my best friend. She cried and she told me that she was beaten up again by her husband (ex-husband, precisely) .

I was stunned for a moment, damn!!

Why it happened again to her?

I have told her many-many times to leave that bas**rd but she did not listen to me.

Ok, I know she has a lot of reason to keep him in her side but it really does not make sense, how can you keep someone who always beating you up? And I never ever understand for all women out there who have the same problem with my best friend that can not act or do something even they were beaten up to death by their LOVELY husband!!!

They all your wives man!! Not a sand bag to practice your punch!!

In the name of love, they said.... or..

Because I love her and I don't want to lose her...

So? With all of the reasons, then you have the privilege to beat your love one??? You SICK man!!

To all the husbands of my best friend, cousin and auntie.. I just wanna say.. I will stand up for them and would not let you to do the same thing again... These people have a right to be happy without any pain from someone else, even its from their own husband. Being a husband is not a privilege to beat your wife when you are angry or upset.



To all man and women out there.. hope you can read this :

Can't Hold Us Down

Christina Aguilera

So, what, am I not supposed to have an opinion?

Should I keep quiet just because I'm a woman?

Call me a bitch 'cause I speak what's on my mind

Guess it's easier for you to swallow if I sat and smiled



When a female fires back

Suddenly big talker don't know how to act

So he does what any little boy would do

Makin' up a few false rumors or two



That for sure is not a man to me, slanderin' names for popularity

It's sad you only get your fame through controversy (So, so sad)

But now it's time for me to come and give you more to say



[chorus:]

This is for my girls all around the world (Around the world)

Who have come across a man that don't respect your worth

Thinkin' all women should be seen not heard

So what do we do girls? shout louder!

Lettin 'em know we're gonna stand our ground (Stand our ground)

So lift your hands high and wave 'em proud

Take a deep breath and say it loud

Never can, never will

Can't hold us down



Nobody can hold us down

Nobody can hold us down

Nobody can hold us down

Never can, never will



So, what, am I not supposed to say what I'm saying?

Are you offended with the message I'm bringin'?

Call me whatever 'cause your words don't mean a thing

Guess you ain't even a man enough to handle what I sing



If you look back in history it's a common double standard of society

The guy gets all the glory the more he can score

While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore

I don't understand why it's okay,

The guy can get away with it, the girl gets named

All my ladies come together and make a change

And start a new beginning for us, everybody sing



[chorus:]

This is for my girls all around the world (around the world)

Who have come across a man

That don't respect your worth (respect your worth)

Thinkin' all women should be seen not heard

(can't get rid of us)

So what do we do girls, shout louder

Lettin 'em know we're gonna stand our ground

(we're standing our ground this time)

So lift your hands high and wave 'em proud

Take a deep breath and say it loud

Never can, never will

Can't hold us down



[Lil' Kim:]

Here's something I just can't understand

If the guy have three girls then he's the man

He can even give her some head, or sex her off

But if a girl do the same, she's a whore



But the tables about to turn

I bet my fame on it

Cats take my ideas, and put their name on it

It's aight though, you can't hold me down

I got to keep on moving



To my girls to their man who be trying to mac

Do it right back to him and let that be that

You need to let him know that his game is whack

And Lil' Kim and Christina Aguilera got yo back



You're just a little boy

Think you're so cute, so coy

You must talk so big to make up for smaller things

You're just a little boy

All you do is annoy

You must talk so big to make up for smaller things



(This is for my girls)

This is for my girls all around the world

Who have come across a man that don't respect your worth

Thinkin' all women should be seen not heard

So what do we do girls, shout louder (shout louder)

Lettin 'em know we're gonna stand our ground (stand our ground)

So lift your hands high and wave 'em proud

Take a deep breath and say it loud

Never can, never will

Can't hold us down



This is for my girls all around the world (for my girls)

Who have come across a man that don't respect your worth (around the world)

Thinkin' all women should be seen not heard

So what do we do girls, shout louder

Lettin 'em know we're gonna stand our ground (stand our ground)

So lift your hands high and wave 'em proud

Take a deep breath and say it loud

Never can, never will

Can't hold us down
