targus

"I secretly wished for.."

Bismillah dan Assalamualaikum.

It was four years ago. The first time I set my eyes on it, I just fell in love so much I think couldn't love anything else (read: any other brands of backpack). I first saw it on Gan, and then Din. All black, tough and convenient. Since then, I secretly wish for a Targus. Why secretly? Because it is something too expensive for me.. it feels wrong wanting expensive things..

And I'm the type of person that will not buy a new bag if the current one still in good condition. The same goes for my wallet, my watch, my handphone, and my shoes. That's why, should I ever need to buy one, I'll always try to look for those that are durable, tough, and long-lasting. All or nothing. Like... Targus? Hurmm.. And since I always get an immediate replacement (from people around me, murah rezeki alhamdulillah) everytime I came to need a new one, so getting a Targus should have to wait.

So what is the point of this entry?

Last year, my sis got a Targus backpack from her colleagues as a birthday gift. Envious? Of course. But only a bit. Because it's a birthday gift, and the place where she works at is a big company, so it's okay.. Sesuailah. But.. last weekend she said she got another Targus backpack. And this time it was as a doorgift from a company event. What? How cruel is that? Huhuhu proves how so very little I know about this world. It has never occured to me that something so expensive like a Targus backpack could ever be made as mere doorgifts... Huhu *choked on jealousy* As I went almost speechless with the fact that I just learned, she raised her eyebrows and said to me (and she repeated it twice), "Best kan kerja oil & gas~"

I don't really know what she meant by that, but I immediately translated it as "you (still) have to earn it (either directly or not)". Bersusah-susah dahulu, bersenang-senang kemudian. So, I'm okay now. Someday, I will make one mine *ambitious*

When I finally come to really need it and can afford it, still. Haha. I don't wanna be materialistic actually.. Sesungguhnya dunia ini hanyalah kesenangan yang menipu..

Mode: Still battling with my innerself.

Ps. Happy birthday Eja Hasan yang sedang berhoneymoon~ :)
